Since Week 12, Dowdle has been the RB13 in fantasy points per game, averaging 22.8 touches and 127.8 total yards. Since Week 12, among 41 qualifying backs, he has ranked 13th in explosive run rate and sixth in yards after contact per attempt. Dowdle runs into a buzzsaw this week, which might break his hot streak of three consecutive 100-yard rushing games. Since Week 10, Tampa Bay has allowed the fewest rushing yards per game, the eighth-lowest explosive run rate, the fifth-fewest yards after contact per attempt, and the seventh-highest stuff rate.
