LeSean McCoy has been a beast in the Buffalo Bills’ backfield the last four games. He hopes to stay hot in Miami against the Dolphins as the Bills fight for an AFC wild card spot. McCoy rushed 17 times for 71 yards and caught five passes for 76 yards in the Week 16 loss to the New England Patriots, although he failed to find the end zone after scoring in the previous two games. The Bills’ workhorse has over 100 total yards in four of the last six games.

Sunday, the Bills need another big effort from McCoy against the Dolphins if they have any chance of ending their 17-year playoff drought. The Dolphins are average against rushers. They’ve given up the third-most touchdowns to running backs in the league this season. McCoy burned the Dolphins for 96 total yards and two touchdowns in their first meeting two weeks ago.
Fantasy impact: Shady is carrying the Bills’ offense the last half of the season. That will continue in Miami Sunday. The Dolphins are not great at stopping the run or slowing down backs in the passing game. McCoy is excellent in both roles. He should definitely be in your lineup for the final game of the season.
