# Nic Bodiford: Previewing Week 9 running game matchups, Bodiford expects Jacksonville to win lopsidedly over a depleted Baltimore team, with Bhayshul Tuten sitting out and Chris Rodriguez taking over as lead back, while Joe Fagnano starts at quarterback for the Ravens. He also views Broncos rookie Jonah Coleman as an RB2 going forward.

5 checkable claims — 2 depth chart calls, 1 availability call, 1 game outcome pick and 1 positional finishe — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 7 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

2 of 5 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.

> Jacksonville Jaguars No. 1 running back Bhayshul Tuten (foot/ankle) is ailing, and the team has no reason to play him in an expectedly lopsided victory over the injury-devastated Baltimore Ravens.
