The Jacksonville Jaguars finally have a real running game thanks to second-year pro Denard Robinson. He won the starting job over Toby Gerhart in Week 7 and continued to run with it last week. Robinson rushed for 108 yards on 18 carries against the Miami Dolphins, adding one reception for 10 yards.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 9: Denard Robinson
Denard Robinson had yet another productive day for the Jaguars. Will he keep it up against the Bengals this week?

With that performance, Robinson became the first Jaguars running back to rush for over 100 yards in two straight games since Maurice Jones-Drew in 2011. He should continue carrying the rock against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9, with Gerhart coming in to spell him.
Fantasy impact: Robinson probably won't be getting 20 carries every week, if only because the Jaguars are often playing from behind. Still, he's settled in as the starter and should take some much-needed pressure off Blake Bortles, who leads the league in interceptions. Robinson has solid flex value against the Bengals defense, which is giving up 111.4 rushing yards per game. Between Robinson, Bortles and a handful of young wide receivers, the Jaguars finally have an offense worth building around if they're patient.
