QB | 16 | 34% (–) | 22 | Philip Rivers threw for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns last week for just the second time in his last six games, but faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
WR | 9 | 81% (+1) | 67 | Sammy Watkins has three 100-yard games and six touchdowns over his last four contests, but faces a Dallas Cowboys defense allowing just 15 passing touchdowns this season, which is second in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 10 | 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. | ||||
RB | 7 | 7% (+2) | 130 | Joique Bell enjoyed his best rushing performance of the season last Monday and is averaging 8.1 yards per carry over his last two games heading into a matchup with the 49ers 27th ranked rush defense that surrenders 4.9 yards per carry. | ||||
RB | 8 | 68% (+2) | 71 | Frank Gore could play a big role for the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16 as they face the Miami Dolphins, who rank 30th in rushing defense (132.1 ypg). | ||||
TE | 3 | 2% (–) | 1815 | McDonald seemed to take a back seat to tight end Blake Bell in Week 15 after a pair of costly drops led to interceptions but showed some promise in Week 11 and 12 before a concussion and could be a sneaky option in DFS formats if he's able to shake off his Week 15 disappointment against the Lions in Week 16. | ||||
W/R/T | 10 | 81% (+3) | 49 | Jarvis Landry continues to be a targets monster, and should have no issues with a Colts defense allowing 267 passing yards per game, which is 29th in the league. | ||||
BN | 0 | 8% (-5) | 2528 | Marcus Mariota (knee) has been ruled out of the Tennessee Titans' Week 16 game against the Houston Texans. | ||||
BN | 6 | 15% (-1) | 104 | Heath Miller caught three passes for only 12 yards on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, a disappointing output on a day when Ben Roethlisberger three 55 passes for 380 yards and two touchdowns, but this week he has a 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 | 8 | 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). | ||||
BN | 1 | 1% (–) | 2642 | Mason continues to see limited action behind running back Todd Gurley and a Week 16 road game against the Seahawks offers no upside. | ||||
