The Broncos rank 31st in the NFL in rush defense giving up over 150 yards per game, and are giving up 23.5 fantasy points to opposing running backs.
McFadden totaled 196 yards and reached the end zone four times against the Broncos in Week 7, 165 of those coming on the ground.
McFadden carried the ball just six times in that game so fantasy owners should look for a lot of big plays from the third-year back from Arkansas.
McFadden has 993 yards on the year with seven rushing touchdowns along with 39 receptions for another 437 yards and three touchdowns.
McFadden is a threat on the ground and through the air and the Broncos could not stop him in Week 7.
Week 7's matchup was on the road and McFadden had a career game. This Sunday will be in Oakland with the home crowd behind him, so look for McFadden to have another big day.
It will be difficult to matchup his first performance against the Broncos but he is still considered a must-start in all leagues and possibly the start of the week.
Projected Stats: 20 carries, 125 yards, 1 touchdown, 4 receptions, 45 yards
Remaining Schedule:
Indianapolis Colts
@Kansas City Chiefs
