We’re getting to the very end of the fantasy football regular season. This means the playoffs are right around the corner. In this article, we have organized the best fantasy football playoff schedules for running backs, which include Weeks 15-17. We have also organized the toughest fantasy playoff schedules for RBs, so you know who to avoid in the pursuit of your fantasy league’s trophy, championship belt or champ chain this season!
Top 5 Best Fantasy Football Playoff Schedules
1. Alvin Kamara Fantasy Schedule
Fantasy Football Schedule: vs Falcons, at Browns, at Eagles
Alvin Kamara has been a disappointment this season. For some reason, always around Christmas time, he chooses to shine. This fantasy football schedule says he will do that again this season, as all three of his playoff matchups are against bottom-12 defenses against fantasy RBs.
2. Isiah Pacheco Fantasy Schedule
Fantasy Football Schedule: at Texans, vs Seahawks, at Broncos
Isiah Pacheco has shown what he can do. He currently floats at 65% ownership, but if he isn’t owned in your league, now is your chance. His Week 15-16 schedule is absolutely amazing, as both matchups are against bottom-three defenses against RBs. It does get a little rough in Week 17 though, as he does face the Broncos, who have allowed the 19th-most points to RBs, but his schedule can help you lead to the championship.
3. Baltimore Ravens Fantasy Schedule
Fantasy Football Schedule: at Browns, vs Falcons, vs Cardinals
This is one of those things where we have more questions than answers. Gus Edwards and Kenyan Drake are currently playing, then you have JK Dobbins coming back from injury soon too. While we don’t know who will lead the room, there is one thing they have in common. They have a very decent playoff schedule for RBs.
They start with Week 15 against the Browns, who have allowed the second-most points to RBs, then it gets a little harder against the Falcons, who have allowed the 12th-most, and just a bit harder with 17th-most against the Cardinals. The schedule does get harder as time goes on, but facing off against two top-12 matchups helps.

4. Kyren Williams Fantasy Schedule
Fantasy Football Schedule: at Packers, vs Broncos, at Chargers
The Rams RB room has been a mess, to say the least. But it looks like, for now, they have their guy in Kyren Williams, and every story does have a happy ending. In this scenario, it means a happy ending to their schedule. The Rams face the Packers (seventh-easiest) and Chargers (fifth-easiest) in two of their three weeks. The Broncos are sandwiched in there as well, but they are getting worse as the season rolls on. If you are in need of an RB2/flex, Kyren Williams might end up being your guy.
5. Jonathan Taylor Fantasy Schedule
Fantasy Football Schedule: at Vikings, vs Chargers, at Giants
Jonathan Taylor‘s fantasy football schedule will get a little easier after their bye in Week 14. In the fantasy playoffs, he will not face off against a defense that is in the bottom half of the league for the fewest points allowed to RBs. To start it off, he gets to face two defenses in the top 11 for most points allowed to RBs.
