Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.10 | 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 | 12.01 | 94% (-1) | 53 | Brandon Marshall had a six-game scoring streak snapped while battling cramps Saturday night, though he is expected to be fine for Sunday's crucial tilt with the New England Patriots, who have allowed 19 passing touchdowns this season, which is tied for 8th in the NFL. | ||||

WR | 9.75 | 0% (–) | 154 | |||||
RB | 13.19 | 85% (–) | 32 | Doug Martin is averaging 91 rushing yards per game over his last four contests, but has failed to crack the 100-yard mark in each of those games. | ||||
RB | 10.16 | 45% (+15) | 90 | Danny Woodhead scored four times last week, including three receiving touchdowns, and with Melvin Gordon out with a knee injury, he should see an expanded workload Thursday against a Raiders defense that has struggled this season against pass-catching RBs. | ||||
TE | 12.65 | 96% (+1) | 24 | Greg Olsen caught his first touchdown last week since Nov. 22, but through just 14 games, set a career-high in yardage and should be in line for another big game against the Falcons. | ||||
W/R/T | 10.26 | 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 | 9.80 | 50% (–) | 58 | Benjamin Watson has remained a big piece of the Saints’ passing offense, even without a bevy of touchdowns (5) this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 10.37 | 19% (+11) | 117 | Markus Wheaton caught six passes for 62 yards and a touchdown on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, fourth straight game with at least 60 yards and/or a touchdowns, and 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. | ||||
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 | 21% (–) | 2289 | |||||
BN | 6.10 | 3% (–) | 209 | Kenny Stills had just one catch Sunday even though he was targeted six times, and his production has been too spotty to be relied upon, even against a subpar Colts passing defense allowing 267 yards per game through the air. | ||||
BN | 21.34 | 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. | ||||
BN | 12.40 | 11% (–) | 37 | Jay Cutler has two touchdown passes in consecutive games, and assuming the Bears don't simply go through the motions, he'll face a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 28 scores through the air, tied for the sixth most in the league. | ||||
