Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.08 | 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. | ||||
WR | 16.93 | 79% (+1) | 57 | Eric Decker has scored 10 touchdowns this season, but faces a New England Patriots defense that is tied for 8th in the NFL in terms of passing touchdowns allowed, and Decker was held out of the end zone in the first meeting between the two squads. | ||||
WR | 19.51 | 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 | 14.63 | 45% (+15) | 90 | Danny Woodhead scored four times last week, including three receiving touchdowns, and with Melvin Gordon out with a knee injury, he should see an expanded workload Thursday against a Raiders defense that has struggled this season against pass-catching RBs. | ||||
RB | 9.82 | 29% (+5) | 119 | Coming off of his best rushing performance of his career, Ameer Abdullah faces a 49ers defense that is allowing 128.6 yards per game and a league-high 18 rushing touchdowns. | ||||
TE | 12.91 | 24% (+5) | 82 | Zach Miller has five or more targets in five of his last six games and with the Bears receiving corps depleted by injury, he should see ample chances against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed opposing tight ends to top 63 yards in consecutive weeks, but have not allowed a tight end to score since Week 8. | ||||
W/T | 10.87 | 6% (-1) | 148 | Nate Washington looks to get some extra targets in Week 16 when the Houston Texans will be without Cecil Shorts (groin) against the Tennessee Titans. | ||||
W/R | 15.97 | 73% (+13) | 73 | Emmanuel Sanders pulled in a career-high 181 receiving yards last week, and faces a Bengals defense Monday that's been middle of the pack in passing yards allowed (244.1 per game, 15th in the league). | ||||
BN | 6.22 | 8% (-1) | 211 | |||||
BN | 8.29 | 22% (–) | 158 | Ronnie Hillman saw a majority of carries last week but was unproductive with them, and now faces a Bengals defense Monday that ranks eighth in rushing yards allowed (93.2 per game). | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 21% (-2) | 2254 | Vincent Jackson is unlikely to play this week as he continues to deal with a sprained MCL that could hold him out for the rest of the season. | ||||
BN | 11.03 | 13% (+8) | 110 | Will Tye had five catches and a touchdown against Carolina, giving him at least five catches in four of the five games since taking over as the Giants' primary tight end. | ||||
BN | 3.42 | 0% (–) | 2475 | With injuries and inexperience at wideout, the Tennessee Titans are relying more on its tight ends, including Sal Fasano, as they prepare for a Week 16 game against the Houston Texans. | ||||
BN | 16.23 | 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. | ||||
