Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 15.25 | 67% (-6) | 6 | Palmer's off-night (274 yards, one touchdown) may have sunk some playoff hopes but a pair of costly drops by wideout John Brown contributed to the cause greatly and he figures to get back on track in what should be a closer game against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
WR | 5.88 | 75% (+7) | 81 | Amari Cooper is coming off the first multi-TD game of his career last week, and now faces a Chargers defense Thursday that he posted a 5-133-1 line against in Week 7. | ||||
WR | 6.56 | 62% (+18) | 60 | DeSean Jackson rebounded a two-catch, 43-yard effort with a season-high 153-yard outburst against Buffalo that also included a customary long touchdown for the talented wideout. | ||||
RB | 5.78 | 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). | ||||
RB | 5.67 | 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 | 4.55 | 65% (-3) | 87 | Gary Barnidge caught three passes for 29 yards and a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks' Legion of Boom on Sunday, giving him at least 50 yards and/or a touchdown in 11 of his last 12 games, but this week he faces a tough match-up against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that is number one in the NFL in limiting production to opposing tight ends. | ||||
W/R | 4.72 | 27% (+1) | 135 | Austin racked up 73 yards of offense and a pair of TDs in a Week 15 win over Tampa Bay but remains a boom-or-bust option and a Week 16 road game against Seattle doesn't look like a good spot to make an impact despite his play-making ability. | ||||
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 | 5.23 | 46% (-4) | 111 | Giovani Bernard started and got the lion share of the carries early against a purportedly weak San Francisco 49ers run defense, but was unable to do much to the tune of 18 total touches for 51 yards vs. competitor Jeremy Hill's 19 touches for 31 yards but two touchdowns, and this week he faces the number one rush yardage defense in the NFL in the Denver Broncos that allow only 79.9 yards per game on the ground. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 3% (–) | 2072 | Rishard Matthews remains sidelined with rib/chest issues. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 13% (–) | 2554 | |||||

BN | 7.47 | 41% (-1) | 223 | Adam Vinatieri has converted 21 of 23 field-goal attempts entering the Indianapolis Colts' Week 16 matchup against the Miami Dolphins, who rank 26th with 25.8 points allowed per game. | ||||
