5 NFL Stats to Know Through Week 7
Marlon Mack Scores 31.9 PPR Points
Andrew Luck wasn’t the only Colts player to enjoy himself on Sunday. The Colts win over the Bills also featured a coming out party for second-year running back Marlon Mack.
Mack’s previous two games this season had seen him carry the ball 22 times for 123 yards, with 2 receptions for 6 yards. Mack blew past these numbers against the Bills, finishing with 126 yards on his 19 carries (both career highs) with a touchdown as well as 2 catches for 33 yards and another score.
Mack finished with 31.9 PPR points on Sunday, the third-most of any player in Week 7. These points were more than double his previous two best games in the NFL.
There will obviously be some temptation to run out and secure Mack should he remain on waivers in your league. The Colts' next three fixtures are not the most friendly with regards running backs, but Indy's last two opponents were no mugs either. If Mack is out there in your league, you need to snap him up.
