Running backs: the playoff slate

Each offense's three opponents in weeks 15 to 17 and the mean of what those defenses have allowed a game to running backs this season, the softest slate first. What a defense has allowed is history, and our own check found it tracks the next game only faintly: read it as the matchup a player walks into, not as what he will do in it.

Yards and targets allowed are from each defense's final games this season, ranked among the 32 (1 = allows the most). Shares are of the team's carries or targets over the player's last four games. Data from nflverse (CC BY 4.0). The definitions and floors are on How we count.
