Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 10 | 3% (-2) | 44 | AJ McCarron completed 15 of 21 passes for 192 yards and a touchdown in his first start in place of Andy Dalton against the San Francisco 49ers, but this week has a much tougher match-up against a Denver Broncos defense that leads the NFL with only 200.0 passing yards allowed per game. | ||||
WR | 4 | 23% (-2) | 134 | Marvin Jones led the Cincinnati Bengals with four receptions for 89 yards on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers, showing good chemistry with back-up quarterback A.J. McCarron, but in Week 16 he faces a Denver Broncos defense that leads the NFL with only 200.0 passing yards allowed per game. | ||||
WR | 5 | 22% (+12) | 99 | Rueben Randle extended his scoring streak to two games, and three of the last four, with a touchdown against Carolina. | ||||
RB | 8 | 86% (-1) | 16 | Devonta Freeman had one of his worst games of the season against the Panthers two weeks ago and could struggle once again. | ||||
RB | 10 | 84% (+5) | 18 | Johnson exploded for 229 yards of offense and three touchdowns in Week 15 despite a brief knee scare but will have a hard time repeating the effort in a tougher draw against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
TE | 4 | 72% (–) | 106 | Travis Kelce is just 41 yards shy of setting a new career high in receiving yards on the season, and faces a Browns defense Sunday that's allowed eight TDs to tight ends this season, tied for fifth in the league. | ||||
W/R | 6 | 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 | 4 | 28% (+2) | 120 | Travis Benjamin caught three passes for 26 yards on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks' Legion of Boom secondary, modest production but he was still the most targeted receiver for the Cleveland Browns, and this week he faces a Kansas City Chiefs pass defense that is 17th in the NFL with 243.2 yards per game allowed through the air. | ||||
BN | 0 | 16% (-2) | 2540 | |||||
BN | 3 | 11% (–) | 237 | Duke Johnson rushed four times for 46 yards and grabbed five receptions for 39 more yards to out-gain starter Isaiah Crowell 85 yards to 30, and this week he matches up with a stout Kansas City Chiefs defense (7th in NFL with 92.2 yards allowed per game on the ground) that is more vulnerable through the air (17th in NFL with 243.2 passing yards per game allowed). | ||||
BN | 0 | 15% (-6) | 2318 | Matt Jones managed 10 carries in the win over Buffalo but continues to disappoint with a poor 3.4 YPC on the year. | ||||
BN | 2 | 0% (–) | 2583 | Nelson's brief ascension into fantasy relevance has all but ended with his slide back down the depth chart with a healthy group of receivers ahead of him in the Arizona passing game and he's nothing more than a dart throw in a Week 16 matchup against the Packers. | ||||

K | 9 | 98% (–) | 162 | Stephen Gostkowski, arguably the top kicker in the NFL, booted four field goals last weekend against the Tennessee Titans, and kicked three field goals in the last meeting with the New York Jets. | ||||
