Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 22.49 | 65% (-6) | 4 | If Drew Brees can play—a big if with a torn plantar fascia—he’ll have a great matchup against the bottom-three Jags secondary. | ||||
WR | 9.35 | 86% (-12) | 77 | A.J. Green was dealing with a back injury and had his lowest output of the season on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers with only one reception for 37 yards, and this week he faces a match-up against a Denver Broncos defense that leads the NFL with only 200.0 passing yards allowed per game but that was just torched in Week 15 by Antonio Brown to the tune of 16 receptions for 189 yards and two touchdowns. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 12% (–) | 2001 | |||||
WR | 9.83 | 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 | 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 | 0.00 | 45% (-48) | 2350 | LeSean McCoy was held in check this past Sunday, but should be able to rebound against a Dallas Cowboys defense allowing 110.9 rushing yards per game, which is 18th in the NFL. | ||||
TE | 11.52 | 96% (+1) | 24 | Greg Olsen caught his first touchdown last week since Nov. 22, but through just 14 games, set a career-high in yardage and should be in line for another big game against the Falcons. | ||||
BN | 7.29 | 20% (+6) | 145 | Rashad Jennigs had s season-high 107 yards on 16 carries against Carolina, dominating the carries for a second straight week and may be breaking free of a season-long committee. | ||||
BN | 10.95 | 81% (+3) | 49 | Jarvis Landry continues to be a targets monster, and should have no issues with a Colts defense allowing 267 passing yards per game, which is 29th in the league. | ||||
BN | 17.35 | 34% (–) | 22 | Philip Rivers threw for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns last week for just the second time in his last six games, but faces a Raiders defense Thursday that's allowed 265.6 passing yards per game, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 18% (-2) | 1832 | Tyler Eifert remains in the league's concussion protocol and as of Tuesday has been unable to take part in football activities, so his availability remains very questionable for Monday Night's huge showdown against the Denver Broncos. | ||||
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. | ||||
