What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Zach Charbonnet (SEA RB), our RB20 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 8.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally wants fireworks, and 2.5 points below a typical starter isn't fireworks. Nothing in the projection defends him — 23% below positional par is a bench line for me. He's listed questionable as of the update below; my rank assumes he plays, and designations move fast. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Zach Charbonnet (SEA RB), our RB20 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season vs CHI, projecting 8.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 2.5 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. At home against CHI, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. Fair warning: he carries a questionable tag as of the timestamp below, so re-check before kickoff. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
