Next is Sherry927's choice.

Even with the departure of LeGarrette Blount, things were always going to be tight in the New England backfield. Alongside Mike Gillislee and SB-hero James White, this player is another weapon for Tom Brady. But he didn't rush enough in any game to be right.

The next wrong answer is.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - New England RB Dion Lewis
(53 yards, Week 5 New England-Tampa Bay)

Next, two of you took Green Bay's starter.

This RB had a big game in a Week 2 loss at Atlanta. His season-high came in Week 1, and he missed his team's Week 5 win with a rib injury.

As we'll see, the backup in Green Bay is right. But not the starter.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - Green Bay RB Ty Montgomery
(54 yards, Week 1 Seattle-Green Bay)

Next is Amru's choice, as he falls off the podium.

Last year, this Saint had big ground games against the 49ers and the Rams. He hasn't topped 100 yards in a game yet in 2017; his team's Week 5 bye didn't help much either.

Two entrants took the next incorrect, including a 2013 co-champ.

This Brown had 4 100-yard games in 2016, and none so far this year. His best performance came this past Sunday, in a tight home loss.

The next wrong answer is.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - Cleveland RB Isaiah Crowell

Continuing with former champions, our 2015 winner missed next.

Like Christian McCaffrey, this rookie scored his first career TD in Week 5. But his best rushing performance came in Week 3, in an OT loss.

The next incorrect is.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - Cincinnati RB Joe Mixon

Next up is TeeJayOrTJ. He lost his perfect game in Week 5 as well.

Like Sherry927, he missed with an incorrect Patriot. He rushed for 3 TD's in the 2017 opener, but didn't rack up the yards needed.

Our next incorrect is.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - New England RB Mike Gillislee
(69 yards, Week 2 New England-New Orleans)

Next we have Gamer Dude's answer.

This Texan was expected to have a big day in Week 4, and he did, scoring twice. But he didn't rush for enough.

Gamer Dude missed an ace by 25 yards; he selected.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - Houston RB Lamar Miller
(75 yards, Week 4 Tennessee-Houston)
1 entrant

Next, two of you missed out by 24 yards.

This former Bill and Seahawk returned from exile for 2017, once again suiting up on the West Coast. But his team is now in freefall; sitting at 2-3 after a 2-0 start.

Next, DisGunBGud missed an ace by 23 yards.

This Falcon has only 1 career 100-yard game; it came in a home loss to Minnesota in 2015. He sits second on Atlanta's depth chart, and like Mark Ingram, had a bye in Week 5.

The next incorrect is.....

Our final incorrect was played by Cornboy. This perfect game is over, after Cornboy missed an ace by 20 yards.

This 4th-year vet topped 100 once last season - in a Week 4 home loss to Oakland. He started off the year with 80 yards, but hasn't neared that number again. He rushed 4 times for -7 yards in a horrible home loss in Week 4.

Cornboy's selection is.....

(80 yards, Week 1 Baltimore-Cincinnati)

Our 3 unplayed aces include one starter and 2 backups.

The first backup (behind Forte on the Jets) got there in Week 4, while Ty Montgomery's backup got there in Week 5 at Dallas.

And to continue last year's theme, we all overlooked LeGarrette Blount. Again.

The 3 unplayed aces are below.....

UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
Philadelphia RB LeGarrette Blount

(136 yards, Week 4 Philadelphia-LA Chargers)


UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
Green Bay RB Aaron Jones

One answer is worth 7 points.

This RB started 2016 behind Jeremy Langford in Chicago. After an injury to Langford, he topped 100 yards 6 times last year, including rushing for 111 yards in Week 4 against the Lions (his first start).

He qualified in Week 3, after a big day at home versus the LOLSTEALERS.

One answer is worth 4 points, and this is another rookie.

This rookie qualified twice, in Weeks 1 and 5. In the preseason, he said playing in the NFL was "really easy". This comment raised some eyebrows, but he made it look easy on Sunday, that's for sure.

Spoiler:
LOLSTEALERS


Our lone 4-pointer is.....

CORRECT ANSWER

Jacksonville RB Leonard Fournette
4 points

Habsfan09

Fournette rushed for 100 in Week 1 at Houston, then added 181 more this past Sunday at Pittsburgh.
