QB | 15 | 11% (–) | 34 | Jay Cutler faces a Lions defense that has given up at least two touchdown passes in seven of their last nine games, but Cutler's potential could be tied to wide receiver Alshon Jeffery's hamstring injury more than the matchup. | ||||

K | 8 | 2% (–) | 217 | Zuerlein still hasn't managed multiple field goals in a game since mid-November for a struggling St. Louis offense and that doesn't figure to change much in a road game against the 49ers to close out the season. | ||||
