Langford had 11 carries for 28 yards and a touchdown, adding one catch for six yards (two targets) and a lost fumble, in Monday's 29-14 loss to the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
Perhaps more concerning than the shaky stat line, Langford got less first-quarter playing time than Ka'Deem Carey, who had six yards on three touches before exiting with a hamstring injury in the second quarter. While Langford did play most of the snaps the rest of the night, rookie Jordan Howard was also involved, gaining 22 yards on three carries and nine yards on two receptions. Langford did score a one-yard touchdown for a second straight week, but he also lost a fumble in the fourth quarter and managed just 2.5 yards per carry. One week removed from getting 19 of the team's 20 running-back touches in the regular-season opener, Langford is already losing his grip on the featured role. He may even cede the starting job to Carey or Howard for Sunday's game in Dallas.
Yikes. Man the RB situation in fantasy is pretty ugly right now. Thank the Lord he scored that TD. I may be starting Riddick and T West on one of my leagues this week.

U know it's bad when even the top RBs can't score points. 2nd tier guys, anyone's guess.

I honestly think the guys to own are the passing down guys like Riddick and Vereen.
