Fantasy Index Magazine "Ask the Expert" Question: Which fast-starting fantasy performer will stumble the rest of the way, and why?

Which fast-starting fantasy performer will stumble the rest of the way, and why?

Easy answer Jahvid Best and Darren McFadden. Best is hurt and turf toe tends to be a lingering injury. McFadden faces Michael Bush returning and stealing carries. However, I will go one step further and nominate Thomas Jones. Jamaal Charles appears to be the better runner in KC and when the Chiefs lose a game his 7.0 YPC will trump TJ’s 4.1. Old man time will catch Thomas Jones by the latter third of the season.
