IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Houston Texans

Remember when these two teams were slugging it out for the AFC South crown in recent years? Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The Colts are actually a 5.5-point favorite in this game with a respectable implied team total in Vegas of more than 22 points. Those are two factors in Frank Gore's favor. But not in Marlon Mack's, as he's just not getting enough volume his rookie year to be viable for fantasy.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Baltimore Ravens

The Colts have the lowest implied team total in Vegas for Week 16 in this Saturday game against the Ravens on the road at 13.5 points. It's more than two full points lower than the next worst team. Plus, the Colts have averaged a brutal 12.6 points per game during their five-game losing streak. Even on a Thursday night after a blizzard road overtime game where Frank Gore saw more than 30 carries, Marlon Mack still only saw 6 carries last week. Don't even think about starting him.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Denver Broncos

The Colts played on the road, in a blizzard, and now have a short week to prepare to face the Broncos defense. No problem! Sheesh. Did we mention 34-year-old Frank Gore also had to carry the ball 36 times in that game? With a short week, it's probably highly likely Marlon Mack gets extra work this week. On paper, the matchup is good, though, as Denver is just 27th in aFPA to RBs this year. However, they are top-10 in overall points allowed to the position in the past four weeks. With nothing but hope Mack gets more work, he's far too risky to play outside of a contrarian DFS play in Week 15. However, monitor Frank Gore's status, as he did not practice Tuesday with a hand injury.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Buffalo Bills

The forecast calls for snow in the afternoon and sustained winds of 18 miles per hour. Not exactly what you're looking for if you have a struggling offense like the Colts. If it's hard to pass though, that means more touches for the backfield, and the Bills have allowed the most rushing yards in the league over the past four weeks. However, in the fantasy playoffs, are you really going to start a rookie who has just 13 touches over the past two weeks? We didn't think so. Marlon Mack is not a starting option.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars are ranked just 17th in aFPA vs. RBs this season and, overall, are 18th in PPR points allowed to the position. On paper, not a bad matchup for a running back; however, the Colts offense has an implied team total of just 15.75 points. Only the Browns are lower in Week 13. Plus, Mack is coming off three straight games with fewer than 10 touches. He's not a viable starter.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Tennessee Titans

Over the past three games for the Colts, Frank Gore has 67 touches to 41 for Marlon Mack. The Titans are slightly worse than league average in aFPA against RBs. Mack had just 2 touches in the first meeting between these two teams this season, and the Colts' offensive line is still just #notgoodatfootball. That keeps him on the bench for fantasy owners in Week 12 and beyond until the Colts realize they have nothing left to play for this season and give him a featured role to see what he can do over the 34-year-old Frank Gore on an expiring contract.

IND RB Marlon Mack - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Over the past two weeks, Frank Gore has 40 touches to Marlon Mack's 23. However, Pittsburgh is top-10 in our aFPA vs. RB rankings. Until the Colts make a concerted effort to see what Marlon Mack can do as a featured back, this is not a player you can start, especially in this matchup.
