9. Matt Tifft – 2,003 points
Matt Tifft moved from Joe Gibbs Racing to Richard Childress Racing this season and has struggled with some of the same inconsistency that his predecessor, Brandon Jones, has battled. Tifft finished in the top 10 in half of the regular season races, but his focus is going to need to be on surviving the first round because he’s got a sizable points deficit to overcome.
