Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
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. | ||||
WR | 15.61 | 62% (+18) | 60 | DeSean Jackson rebounded a two-catch, 43-yard effort with a season-high 153-yard outburst against Buffalo that also included a customary long touchdown for the talented wideout. | ||||
WR | 16.29 | 82% (+4) | 59 | Jeremy Maclin scored his fourth touchdown in his last four games in Week 15's win over the Ravens, and now faces a Browns defense that's allowed 29 passing TDs on the season, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
WR | 10.76 | 3% (+1) | 157 | Eddie Royal looked fully healthy last Sunday after dealing with nagging knee and hip injuries throughout the year, and could serve as the team's default top receiver if Alshon Jeffery is unable to play, making him a potentially sneaky play against a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 20 touchdown passes to wide receivers this season. | ||||
RB | 13.29 | 79% (-8) | 55 | Lamar Miller's carries have been difficult to predict this season, but if he gets the touches, he should be able to find room to roam against a Colts defense allowing 123.8 rushing yards per game. | ||||
RB | 13.86 | 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. | ||||
TE | 7.59 | 8% (–) | 172 | Owen Daniels has only topped 50 receiving yards once in six games since Brock Osweiler took over at quarterback for the Broncos, and faces a Bengals defense Monday that's allowed just one TD to opposing tight ends all season. | ||||
W/R/T | 7.85 | 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. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (-2) | 2178 | Cecil Shorts is dealing with a groin injury and his status in questionable leading up to the Houston Texans' Week 16 game against the Tennessee Titans. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (-1) | 2308 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 20% (–) | 2412 | |||||
BN | 15.60 | 15% (-2) | 26 | Alex Smith failed to pass for 200-plus yards for the third straight game last week, but now faces a Browns defense Sunday that's allowed a 102.1 QB rating against, third-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 5.90 | 0% (–) | 2458 | |||||
BN | 3.83 | 0% (–) | 2602 | Philip Dorsett, who has one catch in the two games since returning from an ankle injury, aggravated the injury last week and is questionable as the Indianapolis Colts prepare for a Week 16 game against the Miami Dolphins. | ||||
BN | 3.42 | 0% (–) | 2456 | |||||

K | 8.15 | 32% (–) | 185 | Dan Carpenter has not missed a kick in two games, and the Bills will clash with a Dallas Cowboys defense allowing 23.1 points per game, which is 15th in the league. | ||||
BN | 7.08 | 15% (-2) | 1803 | Mike Nugent made a 22-yard field goal and all three extra point attempts on Sunday in a 24 to 14 win over the San Francisco 49ers, and takes his average of 1.5 made field goals per game into a Week 16 showdown with a Denver Broncos defense that has allowed 1.6 made field goals per game (tied for 15th in NFL). | ||||
