QB | 20.90 | 73% (+14) | 5 | Ben Roethlisberger completed 40 of 55 pass attempts for 380 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions on Sunday against the number one passing defense in the NFL by yardage, the Denver Broncos, but this week he has a much more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens defense that is 15th in the NFL with 242.3 passing yards allowed per game but 27th with 28 passing touchdowns allowed. | ||||
QB | 16.31 | 34% (–) | 22 | Philip Rivers threw for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns last week for just the second time in his last six games, but faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
WR | 9.68 | 63% (-2) | 70 | Michael Crabtree hasn't topped 100 receiving yards in six games, scoring only two touchdowns during that stretch, but he faces a Chargers defense Thursday that he posted a 6-63-1 line against back in Week 7. | ||||
WR | 7.95 | 19% (+11) | 117 | Markus Wheaton caught six passes for 62 yards and a touchdown on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, fourth straight game with at least 60 yards and/or a touchdowns, and in Week 16 he has a much more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens defense that is 15th in the NFL with 242.3 passing yards allowed per game but 27th with 28 passing touchdowns allowed. | ||||
WR | 5.49 | 8% (+1) | 208 | Devin Funchess went for three receptions and 25 yards the last time these two teams met and unless he catches a touchdown, doesn’t have much value to fantasy owners. | ||||
WR | 6.89 | 9% (–) | 146 | Terrance Williams had just two catches for 13 yards against the Jets and has been held to fewer than five catches for every game since the opener. | ||||
RB | 18.07 | 98% (-1) | 8 | Adrian Peterson has been held under 70 yards in three straight games while scoring just once, but faces a Giants defense that is allowing 114.6 yards per game. | ||||
RB | 11.58 | 65% (+13) | 47 | Darren McFadden had 16 carries for 100 yards in the loss to the Jets for his second straight game of over 100 yards. | ||||
RB | 7.07 | 2% (+2) | 152 | Mike Gillislee has scored in consecutive games, but remains behind LeSean McCoy on the depth chart, and Karlos Williams should still figure into the mix as well. | ||||
TE | 8.87 | 50% (–) | 58 | Benjamin Watson has remained a big piece of the Saints’ passing offense, even without a bevy of touchdowns (5) this season. | ||||
TE | 7.19 | 65% (-3) | 87 | Gary Barnidge caught three passes for 29 yards and a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks' Legion of Boom on Sunday, giving him at least 50 yards and/or a touchdown in 11 of his last 12 games, but this week he faces a tough match-up against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that is number one in the NFL in limiting production to opposing tight ends. | ||||
W/R/T | 7.42 | 9% (–) | 129 | DeVante Parker rebounded with 87 receiving yards Sunday, and will face an Indianapolis Colts defense allowing 267 passing yards per game, which is 29th in the NFL. | ||||
W/R/T | 12.98 | 56% (+7) | 33 | Tim Hightower consistently is out-touching C.J. Spiller and could see plenty of usage against the Jaguars middling run defense. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 7% (-1) | 2038 | Marques Colston caught a touchdown last week—his third in the past two weeks—but isn’t a threat to do much anything else but catch touchdowns. | ||||
BN | 2.72 | 8% (-23) | 2614 | Brandon Bolden had 10 carries Sunday, but was overshadowed by Hawaii rookie Joey Iosefa, and with the addition of veteran Steven Jackson as well, Bolden could find it difficult to get touches against a stout Jets defense allowing just 82.8 yards per tilt on the ground. | ||||
BN | 15.06 | 9% (+3) | 34 | Teddy Bridgewater is coming has a 300 yard game and a five score game in his last two outings, and faces the league's worst pass defense in the Giants, who have given up over 300 yards in eight games to date. | ||||
BN | 14.60 | 7% (+1) | 31 | Brock Osweiler is coming off his most productive game of the season in last week's loss to the Steelers, but now faces a Bengals defense Monday that's ranked sixth in the league in QB rating against (79.3). | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 23% (-42) | 2159 | Danny Amendola continues to see his production dwindle, as quarterback Tom Brady has instead targeted Rob Gronkowski, Brandon LaFell and James White with more frequency in recent games. | ||||
BN | 4.12 | 28% (-1) | 188 | Jordan Cameron has caught just one pass in four of the last seven contests, including a measly 5-yard reception in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Chargers. | ||||
