QB | 21.36 | 67% (-6) | 6 | Palmer's off-night (274 yards, one touchdown) may have sunk some playoff hopes but a pair of costly drops by wideout John Brown contributed to the cause greatly and he figures to get back on track in what should be a closer game against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
WR | 9.61 | 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). | ||||
WR | 7.49 | 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 | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 2072 | Rishard Matthews remains sidelined with rib/chest issues. | ||||
RB | 8.41 | 46% (-4) | 111 | Giovani Bernard started and got the lion share of the carries early against a purportedly weak San Francisco 49ers run defense, but was unable to do much to the tune of 18 total touches for 51 yards vs. competitor Jeremy Hill's 19 touches for 31 yards but two touchdowns, and this week he faces the number one rush yardage defense in the NFL in the Denver Broncos that allow only 79.9 yards per game on the ground. | ||||
RB | 0.00 | 19% (-2) | 2375 | |||||
TE | 11.24 | 89% (+3) | 28 | Rob Gronkowski has scored in three-straight games; Gronk has 11 touchdowns on the year and also found the end zone in the first meeting with the New York Jets in late October. | ||||
BN | 21.66 | 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. | ||||
BN | 5.33 | 13% (+1) | 217 | Mike Wallace has a catch of at least 23 yards in three straight games after not hitting that mark once in his first 11 outings, but has no more than three catches in this stretch, and his limited volume caps his appeal against a Giants' league worst secondary that's allowing 308 yards per game. | ||||
BN | 11.01 | 83% (+3) | 54 | Matt Forte is averaging just 12.5 touches over the last two weeks, and despite scoring in each contest, the split carries with Jeremy Langford have Forte's potential limited in a matchup with the Buccaneers ninth ranked rush defense that is allowing 94.9 yards per game. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 9% (–) | 2402 | |||||
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 | 5.48 | 13% (-1) | 137 | Eric Ebron had his second-best outing of the season last week and now faces a 49ers defense that has allowed opposing tight ends to score in consecutive games |

K | 8.80 | 28% (-2) | 164 | Matt Prater missed his first field goal of the season last week and does not have a made field goal in two weeks, giving him seven total points after posting a three-game average of 10 points prior to his current funk. |
