Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 17.37 | 24% (–) | 20 | Ryan Tannehill has just two touchdown passes in his last three games, but faces an Indianapolis Colts defense that has allowed 28 throwing scorers in 2015, which is tied for 22nd in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 9.74 | 77% (-3) | 68 | Randall Cobb has not caught a touchdown pass in four straight games and has been held to 40 yards or less in three of his last five outings, making him difficult to rely against the Cardinals, even with corner Tyrann Mathieu sidelined by a knee injury. | ||||
WR | 10.59 | 74% (+5) | 56 | Golden Tate has four touchdowns in his last two games and could continue to function as the team's top receiving threat with Calvin Johnson's ankle less than 100 percent, but faces a challenging matchup against a 49ers defense that has not allowed a receiver to score in four straight games. | ||||
RB | 15.85 | 91% (+5) | 13 | DeAngelo Williams rushed 14 times for 26 yards and a touchdown and added five receptions for 30 more yards on Sunday against the number one rushing defense in the NFL by yardage, the Denver Broncos, but this week has a slightly more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens run defense that allows 100.4 yards per game to rank 11th in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 9.21 | 28% (+2) | 88 | Darren Sproles had just 25 yards from scrimmage in the loss to Arizona, continuing in what has been a largely disappointing season. | ||||
TE | 7.54 | 59% (+1) | 80 | Antonio Gates' 88 receiving yards last week were his highest total in seven games, and he faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 10 touchdowns to tight ends this season, tied for second-worst in the league. | ||||
W/R/T | 7.22 | 27% (+1) | 135 | Austin racked up 73 yards of offense and a pair of TDs in a Week 15 win over Tampa Bay but remains a boom-or-bust option and a Week 16 road game against Seattle doesn't look like a good spot to make an impact despite his play-making ability. | ||||
BN | 8.72 | 63% (-15) | 102 | Guessing Eddie Lacy's weekly workload has become a frivolous exercise, and facing a fourth ranked Cardinals rush defense that has only allowed two opposing rushers to top 70 yards all season is seemingly enough to suggest there's little upside for Lacy in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 15.40 | 11% (–) | 37 | Jay Cutler has two touchdown passes in consecutive games, and assuming the Bears don't simply go through the motions, he'll face a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 28 scores through the air, tied for the sixth most in the league. | ||||
BN | 11.52 | 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 | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 1833 | |||||
BN | 11.94 | 28% (+26) | 45 | Karlos Williams may have been usurped by Mike Gillislee in the backup role to LeSean McCoy, as Gillislee has rushed for touchdowns in consecutive games. | ||||

K | 7.68 | 56% (-1) | 215 | Dan Bailey made just one field goal and three extra-points in the loss to the Jets, but remains a perfect five-for-five from 50+ yards out with his long field goal. | ||||
