Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 30.15 | 69% (+8) | 2 | Blake Bortles and Jacksonville Jaguars still have an outside shot of making the playoffs in their Week 16 game against the New Orleans Saints, who rank 30th in passing defense (276.4 ypg). | ||||
WR | 18.08 | 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 | 14.49 | 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. | ||||
RB | 20.02 | 98% (-1) | 8 | Adrian Peterson has been held under 70 yards in three straight games while scoring just once, but faces a Giants defense that is allowing 114.6 yards per game. | ||||
RB | 8.28 | 11% (–) | 237 | Duke Johnson rushed four times for 46 yards and grabbed five receptions for 39 more yards to out-gain starter Isaiah Crowell 85 yards to 30, and this week he matches up with a stout Kansas City Chiefs defense (7th in NFL with 92.2 yards allowed per game on the ground) that is more vulnerable through the air (17th in NFL with 243.2 passing yards per game allowed). | ||||
TE | 11.48 | 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/T | 14.02 | 55% (+1) | 72 | Brown dropped a pair of early TD passes that would have resulted in a huge game but at least salvaged the day somewhat with a third quarter score from Carson Palmer and should be able to get back on track against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 53% (-38) | 2180 | Alshon Jeffery would be in line for his usual heavy workload in an inviting matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed 20 touchdown receptions to receivers this season, provided he can play through a hamstring injury that limited him last Sunday. | ||||
BN | 14.92 | 56% (+7) | 33 | Tim Hightower consistently is out-touching C.J. Spiller and could see plenty of usage against the Jaguars middling run defense. | ||||
BN | 12.39 | 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). | ||||
BN | 28.49 | 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 | 7.62 | 12% (-1) | 165 | Vernon Davis caught just one pass last week, and now faces a Bengals defense Monday that's been very tough on opposition tight ends, allowing only one TD to them all season. | ||||
BN | 9.55 | 29% (+5) | 119 | Coming off of his best rushing performance of his career, Ameer Abdullah faces a 49ers defense that is allowing 128.6 yards per game and a league-high 18 rushing touchdowns. | ||||
