The Zero RB Universe Gives Thanks for Bucky Irving, Chase Brown, Tyrone Tracy, and Chuba Hubbard

The 2024 season has featured remarkable running back health, and yet breakout RBs like Bucky Irving, Chase Brown, J.K. Dobbins, Tyrone Tracy, and Chuba Hubbard have still provided late-round successes and additional Flex punch.

As Ben Gretch and I discussed on Stealing Bananas this week, the 2024 campaign has delivered epic performances from aging backs combined with devastating injuries to big-name wide receivers. The result has been a challenging-yet-exciting landscape where our squads loaded with players like Ja’Marr Chase, Bijan Robinson, Breece Hall, Jahmyr Gibbs, De’Von Achane, Kenneth Walker, Trey McBride, George Kittle, Brock Bowers, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Jameson Williams, Jordan Addison, Jayden Daniels, Irving, Brown, etc. are squaring off against Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, Alvin Kamara, Josh Allen, Joe Mixon, and Josh Jacobs teams.

After a hectic final week, I was able to get seven of 11 Main Events into the playoffs, four of which either finished with the best record or most points and are into the $1 million sprint. Can the other three win their individual leagues and advance? Who will come up big in the pivotal three-week final stretch? We don’t know the answers yet, but the RotoViz tools provide tremendous insights as we continue to build the back of our rosters and make crucial start/sit decisions in the fantasy playoffs.

With so much happening in Week 12, this was one of the most fun Zero RB Universe pieces to write. Let’s dive in.

“The end is in the beginning and yet you go on.” ― Samuel Beckett, Endgame The Titans had an 11-play sequence in this game that stretched across three offensive drives where Will Levis managed to fumble and take five sacks.
