QB | 26.58 | 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 | 9.74 | 77% (-3) | 68 | Randall Cobb has not caught a touchdown pass in four straight games and has been held to 40 yards or less in three of his last five outings, making him difficult to rely against the Cardinals, even with corner Tyrann Mathieu sidelined by a knee injury. | ||||
WR | 10.84 | 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. | ||||
RB | 8.72 | 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. | ||||
RB | 9.88 | 22% (+2) | 75 | Jeremy Langford has 11 or more carries in eight straight games, but has not scored in three weeks while Matt Forte has reached the end zone in each contest, setting Langford up for another complimentary role Sunday against a ninth ranked Buccaneers rush defense. | ||||
TE | 10.32 | 71% (+3) | 41 | Jordan Reed had seven catches for 84 yards and two scores against Buffalo, giving him 16 catches, three touchdowns and 204 yards the past two games. | ||||
W/R/T | 9.58 | 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 | 0.00 | 18% (-16) | 2405 | Draughn was limited to just 38 yards on nine carries after exiting with a knee injury but should step back into his starting role if he's able to get back to health in advance of a Week 16 mathup against the Lions. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 20% (–) | 2412 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 11% (+2) | 2280 | Steve Johnson remains hampered by a groin injury and is questionable against the Raiders on Thursday, but if he is able to play he'll be facing a defense that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 4.07 | 0% (–) | 2473 | |||||
BN | 10.64 | 24% (+3) | 63 | Alfred Morris ran for 84 yards on 14 carries against Buffalo, including his first rush for 10 yards or more in five games. |

K | 8.32 | 48% (+2) | 174 | Blair Walsh has eight points in three of his last four games and should see ample chances against a Giants defense that is allowing 25.6 points per game and has only held one opponent under 20 points all season. |
