Russell Wilson put in a huge performance, so Lynch’s struggles didn’t hinder the offense too much.
Fantasy Impact: The Patriots have been much better against the run than stopping opposing passers this season. That being said, this was the worst performance Lynch has had all season.
He’ll face another tough run defense in the 49ers this coming Thursday night. While San Francisco is normally stout against opposing ground games, Lynch did manage to run for 107 yards and a touchdown in his last game against his divisional foe. He’s too big of a name to have on your bench.
