Here are my top 50 running backs for Week 6 (standard-scoring leagues).
This countdown doesn't lean on a particular stat. It's merely an educated best guess of which rushers will tally the best combination of total yards and touchdowns for the NFL's sixth weekend.
For the time being, nicked-up Raiders rushers Darren McFadden (hamstring) and Rashad Jennings (hamstring) are off the board.
