Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is coming off a rare slow outing for him as he gained just 58 scoreless yards in a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. Taylor will look to bounce back at home against the Houston Texans in Week 13. The Texans have been solid against the run this season, allowing just the 22nd-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs thus far. Taylor has been one of the most dominant fantasy players in the league this season with 17 all-purpose touchdowns in 11 games and should be locked into starting lineups on a weekly basis regardless of his opponent. He sets up as a top-three fantasy running back for Week 13.

Dynasty | Colts running back Jonathan Taylor had 58 rushing yards, two catches, and eight receiving yards in a loss to the Chiefs. Dynasty Analysis: The Chiefs sold out to stop Taylor and did about as well as you could in this one. It was a buzzkill for dynasty managers who have been in position to win just about every week as Taylor has been this year's fantasy MVP. This does nothing to stop that notion and just reinforces that everyone is human. His ADP and ranking aren't going anywhere.
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor carried the ball 16 times for 58 yards and caught two of his three targets for eight yards in a 23-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime in Week 12. In a rare feat, the Chiefs held Taylor out of the end zone for just the third time all season. On the bright side, Taylor continues to dominate the backfield work in Indy as no other running back logged a carry in the close loss to the Chiefs. Taylor has rushed for 1,197 yards and has 17 all-purpose touchdowns in 11 games this season. In Week 13, he will take on a quality Houston Texans defense at home.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor should be well-rested coming out of his Week 11 bye. Taylor has been one of the top players in fantasy this season, racking up 17 all-purpose touchdowns in just 10 games. The star running back will look to stay hot in a Week 12 road matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have been tough on running backs this season, allowing just the 26th-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, Taylor has been too dominant this season and will continue to see the bulk of the Colts' running-back touches. He settles in as a top-three fantasy running back heading into Week 12 in a game with a 50-point over/under.

Dynasty | Colts running back Jonathan Taylor ran for 244 yards and three touchdowns, adding three catches for 42 more yards in an OT win against Atlanta. Dynasty Analysis: And those who slept through it on the West Coast can likely go back to bed as they either won or lost their fantasy game if Taylor was involved in it. Depending on your exact format, this was one of the biggest fantasy days of all-time as Taylor continues to show everyone he's not just a candidate for fantasy MVP this year, but the NFL MVP as well. He's as locked in as ever and while his ADP can't really rise much at this point, this was quite the day.
Indianapolis' RB Jonathan Taylor ran for a staggering 244 yards on 32 carries with three touchdowns in Sunday's win against the Falcons.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has been one of the most dominant fantasy players in the league this season, racking up 14 all-purpose touchdowns in nine games. The Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9 were one of the few teams able to slow the elite rusher down, holding him to 45 scoreless rushing yards on 14 carries. Taylor will look to get back into the end zone in a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The Falcons have shut down passing attacks but have been beatable on the ground this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. That sets up Taylor for a big day as the Colts are likely to lean on the run game against Atlanta. He settles in as a top-three fantasy RB in Week 10.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor finally cooled off in a 27-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. Taylor carried the ball 14 times for 45 yards while catching both of his targets for 12 yards in the disappointing loss to Pittsburgh. It was the first time all season that Taylor had been held to fewer than 66 rushing yards and just the third time in nine games that he was held out of the end zone. Taylor will now head back home to face off against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. Atlanta has struggled to slow opposing rushing attacks this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to running backs in eight games. Taylor remains a rock-solid RB1 in all fantasy formats heading into Week 10's contest.

The best player in fantasy over the first half of the season, Taylor has scored exactly three touchdowns in a game four times so far this season, with the most recent instance coming in a Week 8 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Despite the tougher matchup, Taylor remains a top-three fantasy running back in Week 9.
