Should I start Jeremy McNichols or Pierre Strong Jr. in Week 8?

Updated Oct 28, 10:36 PM ET.

Start Jeremy McNichols: 18 percent of the snaps and 31 percent of the carries over their last game, against Pierre Strong Jr.'s 12 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
