QB | 13.69 | 26% (-4) | 14 | Ryan Fitzpatrick had an ugly interception Saturday, as well as an ugly cut at the top of his nose, but though managed to throw at least one touchdown pass for the seventh-straight game, and will face a Patriots defense against which he threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns in late October. | ||||
WR | 5.40 | 22% (+7) | 97 | Willie Snead has come out of nowhere to be one of the Saints’ top-two receivers this season and gets a solid matchup against a faltering Jags secondary. | ||||
WR | 4.91 | 19% (+4) | 127 | James Jones flashed his big play potential again last week and now has 16 targets in his last two games, giving him a puncher's chance at a big day against a Tyrann Mathieu-less Cardinals secondary that has allowed four 300 yard passing games in their last five outings. | ||||
WR | 7.71 | 97% (–) | 39 | DeAndre Hopkins has been seeing a lot of double teams of late, which has limited him to one touchdown over the past four weeks, but has a favorable Week 16 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, who have allowed 30 passing touchdowns (29th) this season. | ||||
RB | 7.33 | 10% (+4) | 69 | Spencer Ware was active but failed to touch the ball last week as he recovers from a rib injury, but if he's able to handle a bigger workload Sunday he'll be facing a Browns defense allowing 134.9 rushing yards a game, 31st in the league. | ||||
RB | 5.10 | 33% (+11) | 113 | James White continues to be a force in the passing game, racking up 21 catches for 224 yards and two receiving touchdowns over his last three contests. | ||||

W/R/T | 8.05 | 96% (+1) | 24 | Greg Olsen caught his first touchdown last week since Nov. 22, but through just 14 games, set a career-high in yardage and should be in line for another big game against the Falcons. | ||||

BN | 5.00 | 15% (+3) | 105 | Antonio Andrews remains the Tennessee Titans' lead back as they look to play spoiler in a Week 16 divisional game against the Houston Texans, who rank 16th in rushing defense (109.6 ypg). | ||||

BN | 3.57 | 7% (–) | 190 | Isaiah Crowell rushed nine times for 23 yards and caught three passes for seven more yards on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, but though he out-touched Duke Johnson (12 to 9) he was significantly out-gained by the rookie (30 total yards vs 85), and in Week 16 he will face a stout Kansas City Chiefs run defense that is seventh in the NFL with 92.2 yards allowed per game on the ground. | ||||
