QB | 15 | 26% (-4) | 14 | Ryan Fitzpatrick had an ugly interception Saturday, as well as an ugly cut at the top of his nose, but though managed to throw at least one touchdown pass for the seventh-straight game, and will face a Patriots defense against which he threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns in late October. | ||||
WR | 9 | 74% (+5) | 56 | Golden Tate has four touchdowns in his last two games and could continue to function as the team's top receiving threat with Calvin Johnson's ankle less than 100 percent, but faces a challenging matchup against a 49ers defense that has not allowed a receiver to score in four straight games. | ||||
WR | 5 | 8% (+1) | 208 | Devin Funchess went for three receptions and 25 yards the last time these two teams met and unless he catches a touchdown, doesn’t have much value to fantasy owners. | ||||
RB | 14 | 91% (+5) | 13 | DeAngelo Williams rushed 14 times for 26 yards and a touchdown and added five receptions for 30 more yards on Sunday against the number one rushing defense in the NFL by yardage, the Denver Broncos, but this week has a slightly more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens run defense that allows 100.4 yards per game to rank 11th in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 8 | 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. | ||||
TE | 4 | 8% (–) | 172 | Owen Daniels has only topped 50 receiving yards once in six games since Brock Osweiler took over at quarterback for the Broncos, and faces a Bengals defense Monday that's allowed just one TD to opposing tight ends all season. | ||||
W/R/T | 9 | 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. | ||||
BN | 4 | 1% (–) | 1821 | |||||
BN | 9 | 33% (-9) | 84 | Javorius Allen lost a fumble for the second straight Sunday in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs and was subsequently out-touched (four vs nine) and out-gained (18 yards vs 46) by back-up Terrance West, and if he does hold onto his starting job moving into Week 16 he will face a tough Pittsburgh Steelers defense that is fifth in the NFL with only 89.4 rushing yards allowed and second in the NFL with only five total rushing touchdowns allowed on the season. | ||||
BN | 5 | 1% (–) | 132 | Clive Walford has seen a season-high seven targets in each of the last two games, and faces a Chargers defense Thursday that's allowed eight TDs this season to tight ends, tied for fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 3 | 8% (-1) | 211 | |||||
BN | 12 | 3% (–) | 38 | Matt Hasselbeck is dealing with several injuries from head to toe as the Indianapolis Colts prepare for their Week 16 game against the Miami Dolphins, who rank 27th in passing defense (264.7 ypg). | ||||

K | 7 | 29% (+6) | 1802 | Chris Boswell made both of his field goal attempts and all four extra point opportunities on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, and takes his average of 2.6 made field goals per game into Week 16 to face a Baltimore Ravens defense that allows 2.0 field goals per game (third most in the NFL). | ||||
BN | 9 | 28% (-2) | 164 | Matt Prater missed his first field goal of the season last week and does not have a made field goal in two weeks, giving him seven total points after posting a three-game average of 10 points prior to his current funk. | ||||
