Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 18 | 40% (-3) | 15 | Matt Ryan had fewer than six standard fantasy points two weeks ago against the Panthers and has thrown 10 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in his last eight games. | ||||
WR | 7 | 19% (+4) | 127 | James Jones flashed his big play potential again last week and now has 16 targets in his last two games, giving him a puncher's chance at a big day against a Tyrann Mathieu-less Cardinals secondary that has allowed four 300 yard passing games in their last five outings. | ||||
WR | 11 | 96% (-2) | 46 | Julio Jones will need to play up to every bit of his ability against Josh Norman and the Panthers if the Falcons are to win on Sunday. | ||||
RB | 9 | 72% (-13) | 76 | Gurley was bottled up for much of the night (21 carries, 48 yards) but did manage to find the end zone for the third time in two weeks but a Week 16 matchup on the road against the Seahawks is positively brutal for the lone bright spot in the Rams struggling offense so temper your expectations. | ||||
RB | 6 | 12% (+1) | 128 | Ellington continues to remain sidelined with turf toe and would appear to have a diminishing role upon his eventual return with the emergence of David Johnson as Arizona prepares for a matchup with the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
TE | 0 | 3% (–) | 1833 | |||||
W/R | 9 | 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. | ||||
BN | 2 | 8% (-23) | 2614 | Brandon Bolden had 10 carries Sunday, but was overshadowed by Hawaii rookie Joey Iosefa, and with the addition of veteran Steven Jackson as well, Bolden could find it difficult to get touches against a stout Jets defense allowing just 82.8 yards per tilt on the ground. | ||||
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 | 18 | 15% (-2) | 26 | Alex Smith failed to pass for 200-plus yards for the third straight game last week, but now faces a Browns defense Sunday that's allowed a 102.1 QB rating against, third-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 7 | 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. | ||||
BN | 8 | 22% (+7) | 97 | Willie Snead has come out of nowhere to be one of the Saints’ top-two receivers this season and gets a solid matchup against a faltering Jags secondary. | ||||
BN | 0 | 31% (-7) | 2360 | |||||

K | 8 | 73% (–) | 206 | Graham Gano’s blocked field goal almost cost the Panthers’ the game, but he’s still 27-for-33 on the season with a league-leading 50 made extra points. | ||||
