Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 20.02 | 11% (–) | 37 | Jay Cutler has two touchdown passes in consecutive games, and assuming the Bears don't simply go through the motions, he'll face a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 28 scores through the air, tied for the sixth most in the league. | ||||
WR | 13.33 | 79% (+1) | 57 | Eric Decker has scored 10 touchdowns this season, but faces a New England Patriots defense that is tied for 8th in the NFL in terms of passing touchdowns allowed, and Decker was held out of the end zone in the first meeting between the two squads. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 23% (-42) | 2159 | Danny Amendola continues to see his production dwindle, as quarterback Tom Brady has instead targeted Rob Gronkowski, Brandon LaFell and James White with more frequency in recent games. | ||||
RB | 18.50 | 86% (-1) | 16 | Devonta Freeman had one of his worst games of the season against the Panthers two weeks ago and could struggle once again. | ||||
RB | 12.14 | 79% (-8) | 55 | Lamar Miller's carries have been difficult to predict this season, but if he gets the touches, he should be able to find room to roam against a Colts defense allowing 123.8 rushing yards per game. | ||||
TE | 14.26 | 89% (+3) | 28 | Rob Gronkowski has scored in three-straight games; Gronk has 11 touchdowns on the year and also found the end zone in the first meeting with the New York Jets in late October. | ||||
W/R/T | 13.39 | 82% (+4) | 59 | Jeremy Maclin scored his fourth touchdown in his last four games in Week 15's win over the Ravens, and now faces a Browns defense that's allowed 29 passing TDs on the season, fifth-worst in the league. | ||||
BN | 20.27 | 18% (+2) | 23 | Jameis Winston is coming off a career day, but hasn’t been able to string together consecutive good weeks this season. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 11% (-2) | 2331 | |||||
BN | 7.04 | 17% (-2) | 133 | Austin Seferian-Jenkins has struggled since returning from his injury three weeks ago and gets a tough matchup against the Bears this week. | ||||
BN | 11.19 | 50% (–) | 58 | Benjamin Watson has remained a big piece of the Saints’ passing offense, even without a bevy of touchdowns (5) this season. | ||||
BN | 12.26 | 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 | 8.42 | 13% (-2) | 180 | Theo Riddick was a forgotten man in Week 15, and while his pass catching ability figures to keep his value for bottoming out, backfield mates Joique Bell and Ameer Abdullah are suddenly running well heading into a matchup with the 49ers 27th ranked rush defense, which could again limited Riddick's chances. | ||||
