Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23 | 86% (-4) | 9 | Tom Brady has tossed at least two touchdown passes in four-straight games, and faces a New York Jets defense that has allowed 24 passing touchdowns this season, which is tied for 17th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 7 | 23% (-2) | 134 | Marvin Jones led the Cincinnati Bengals with four receptions for 89 yards on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers, showing good chemistry with back-up quarterback A.J. McCarron, but in Week 16 he faces a Denver Broncos defense that leads the NFL with only 200.0 passing yards allowed per game. | ||||
WR | 10 | 78% (-5) | 64 | Fitzgerald's recent slide coincides with the emergence and return to health of wideouts Michael Floyd and John Brown and the veteran wideout hasn't scored in six weeks and hasn't topped 70 yards receiving in his last four and may have another tough draw as the slot receiver against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
RB | 8 | 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 | 20% (-1) | 2349 | T.J. Yeldon is dealing with a knee injury leading up to Week 16 when the Jacksonville Jaguars face the New Orleans Saints, who rank last in both rushing yards per attempt (5.1) and per game (137.1). | ||||
TE | 2 | 3% (–) | 1822 | Dwyane Allen has just nine catches in the last eight games entering the Indianapolis Colts' game against the Miami Dolphins in Week 16. | ||||
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 | 6 | 3% (+1) | 157 | Eddie Royal looked fully healthy last Sunday after dealing with nagging knee and hip injuries throughout the year, and could serve as the team's default top receiver if Alshon Jeffery is unable to play, making him a potentially sneaky play against a Buccaneers secondary that has allowed 20 touchdown passes to wide receivers this season. | ||||
BN | 14 | 84% (+5) | 18 | Johnson exploded for 229 yards of offense and three touchdowns in Week 15 despite a brief knee scare but will have a hard time repeating the effort in a tougher draw against the Packers in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 9 | 76% (-3) | 66 | Badlwin's remarkable tear continued with two more TDs in Week 15 and he now has 10 TDs over his last four games as he looks to continue his onslaught against the Rams in Week 16. | ||||
BN | 17 | 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. | ||||

K | 8 | 41% (-1) | 223 | Adam Vinatieri has converted 21 of 23 field-goal attempts entering the Indianapolis Colts' Week 16 matchup against the Miami Dolphins, who rank 26th with 25.8 points allowed per game. | ||||
BN | 8 | 48% (+2) | 174 | Blair Walsh has eight points in three of his last four games and should see ample chances against a Giants defense that is allowing 25.6 points per game and has only held one opponent under 20 points all season. | ||||
