The running back position is arguably the most crucial position to have in the fantasy football playoffs because there is a limited amount that can make a true impact with the end of the regular season approaching in just under a month. If you find yourself in a playoff spot and you might be unsure at the running back spot, you just might have a running back that could bump you up to a win to advance...or potentially have a running back that could easily get you kicked out of the playoffs.

Here are four fantasy football predictions at the running back position for Week 15.

4.) Breece Hall will have higher volume vs. Dolphins

Breece Hall has seen more productivity in the passing game rather than on the ground for the Jets in the last couple of weeks. It was just three games ago when the Jets and Dolphins met each other in MetLife, where the Dolphins won 34-13. In that game, Hall had 7 carries for 25 yards as well as adding on 7 catches for 24 yards. Up until last week, the Jets' offense was not productive and it ultimately cost them games throughout the season.

The Dolphins have given up just one game of over 100 rushing yards out of their last seven games (but four of them have been 75 yards or more). With this divisional game and the injury that set back star wideout Tyreek Hill, whether he plays or not, the Dolphins may not be the explosive offense that they have been.

If the Jets' defense can step up and contain this Miami offense, then the Jets' offense will be able to utilize the strength of their offense in running the ball. Enter in Hall who can cause some damage, making him a good back to trust at least at the flex position.
