QB | 35.14 | 86% (+2) | 1 | Cam Newton made quick work of the Falcons two weeks ago, and the only thing that can stop him this week is a quick hook as he prepares for the playoffs. | ||||
WR | 13.61 | 96% (-2) | 46 | Julio Jones will need to play up to every bit of his ability against Josh Norman and the Panthers if the Falcons are to win on Sunday. | ||||
WR | 14.77 | 82% (+12) | 27 | Martavis Bryant caught 10 passes for 87 yards on Sunday against the number one pass defense in the NFL in terms of yardage, the Denver Broncos, but in Week 16 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 | 10.28 | 43% (+5) | 86 | Allen Hurns has been dealing with a thigh injury as he and the Jacksonville Jaguars prepare for a Week 16 meeting with the New Orleans Saints, who rank 30th in passing defense (276.4 ypg). | ||||
RB | 11.06 | 62% (-12) | 79 | Chris Ivory is the second-leading rusher in the AFC, but has ceded touches to Bilal Powell in recent weeks, and has just one touchdown in his last six games. | ||||
RB | 10.43 | 63% (-15) | 102 | Guessing Eddie Lacy's weekly workload has become a frivolous exercise, and facing a fourth ranked Cardinals rush defense that has only allowed two opposing rushers to top 70 yards all season is seemingly enough to suggest there's little upside for Lacy in Week 16. | ||||
TE | 10.53 | 67% (+3) | 51 | Julius Thomas, who had a four-game touchdown streak snapped last week, will look to start a new one in Week 16 when the Jacksonville Jaguars face the New Orleans Saints, who have allowed 39 passing touchdowns this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 11.58 | 46% (+18) | 74 | Kamar Aiken set career highs in Week 15 with eight receptions for 128 yards and a touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs, and in Week 16 he has a great match-up against a Pittsburgh Steelers defense that is next-to-last in the NFL with 279.1 yards per game allowed through the air. | ||||
BN | 12.05 | 85% (-11) | 62 | Calvin Johnson's ankle woes have proven to be more serious than expected, limiting him to one catch in each of his last two games heading into a matchup against the 49ers, who have not allowed an opposing receiver to score since Week 11. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 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 | 9.12 | 12% (+4) | 131 | Alfred Blue had a big game in Week 15 after getting over a back injury and will be atop the Houston Texans' running-back rotation in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans, who rank 17th in rushing defense (110.1 ypg). | ||||
BN | 9.53 | 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. | ||||
BN | 36.99 | 65% (-6) | 4 | If Drew Brees can play—a big if with a torn plantar fascia—he’ll have a great matchup against the bottom-three Jags secondary. |

K | 7.93 | 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. |
