Start Terrance West as a Favorite

With Danny Woodhead heading to the IR with a hamstring injury, business should be picking up for Terrance West.

After Woodhead left the game early on Sunday, Javorius Allen stepped in and led the Baltimore Ravens in carries with 21. West had 19 carries and a touchdown.

Baltimore is expected to win and are favored by eight points at home against the Cleveland Browns. Per the Rotoviz Game Splits App, Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco averaged 10 fewer passes per game when Baltimore won over the past four seasons. In their Week 1 victory, Flacco attempted just 17 passes, and while he'll likely pass more in Week 2, there should still be plenty of carries for West.

Last season, West averaged 10.51 half-PPR points per game when the Ravens were favored, which is about two points better per game than when the Ravens were underdogs. West is priced at 18th among running backs on FanDuel at $6,600.
