    A crowded backfield can quickly diminish a running back's Fantasy value. And before you try and determine which running back will receive the bulk of the carries moving forward, you need to see SportsLine Fantasy analyst Matt Franciscovich's breakdown of some of the most fluid running back committees heading into Week 14. 

    Franciscovich, spent four seasons at NFL Network as on-camera talent and as a writer/editor, appearing on NFL Fantasy Live, Fantasy & Friends, and NFL Pick'Em. You might remember him best as one of the 'Fantasy Hipsters,' a segment that was nominated for FSWA "Best Video" award in 2016. He's also a featured contributor of the Fantasy Football Black Book, which has spent ample time at No. 1 in Fantasy books on Amazon in 2018 and 2019. Now, Franciscovich is a Content Strategist at EA Sports, focusing on Madden NFL, while continuing to dish out Fantasy takes for SportsLine. He has years of experience handing out league-winning advice, so if there's anybody who can help you win your league, it's him. 

    One thing we can tell you heading into Week 14: Franciscovich expects Patriots running back James White to stay hot against the Chiefs. 

    "New England is favored by three points at home, but we know what kind of firepower the Chiefs employ on offense, so this could be another good spot for White to produce," Franciscovich said. "Any way you look at it, this is a great matchup for the New England backfield as no team in the NFL allows more FPPG than the Chiefs. Kansas City is second in rushing yards allowed (1,453) only to the Dolphins and have given up more receiving yards to opposing backs (771) than any other defense in the league."

    Franciscovich has also identified a running back that you should completely avoid in Week 14, and has made the call on what owners should do with San Francisco's crowded backfield.

    So which running backs can you trust in Week 14? And which running back should you avoid like the plauge? ... Join SportsLine now to see Matt Franciscovich's analysis, all from one of the top Fantasy football analysts in the nation!
