What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jonah Coleman (DEN RB), our RB42 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs KC, projecting 5.1 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 5.9 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. Facing KC in front of his own crowd, the script reads neutral to friendly, not scary. Managers added him at a 11.1% clip this week — that kind of movement usually follows real snaps, not vibes. 4% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. Sally keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jonah Coleman (DEN RB), our RB42 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs KC, projecting 5.1 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 5.9 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. He grades 54% below the average weekly RB number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. KC is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
