QB | 19 | 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. | ||||
WR | 9 | 73% (+13) | 73 | Emmanuel Sanders pulled in a career-high 181 receiving yards last week, and faces a Bengals defense Monday that's been middle of the pack in passing yards allowed (244.1 per game, 15th in the league). | ||||
WR | 9 | 75% (+7) | 81 | Amari Cooper is coming off the first multi-TD game of his career last week, and now faces a Chargers defense Thursday that he posted a 5-133-1 line against in Week 7. | ||||
RB | 10 | 65% (+13) | 47 | Darren McFadden had 16 carries for 100 yards in the loss to the Jets for his second straight game of over 100 yards. | ||||
RB | 8 | 68% (+2) | 71 | Frank Gore could play a big role for the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16 as they face the Miami Dolphins, who rank 30th in rushing defense (132.1 ypg). | ||||
TE | 5 | 33% (-7) | 124 | Richard Rodgers saw only four targets last week in a favorable matchup, something he has again this Sunday against a Cardinals defense that has allowed an average of 73.3 yards and four touchdowns to opposing tight ends since their Week 9 bye. | ||||
BN | 7 | 40% (–) | 121 | C.J. Anderson was unimpressive in his return from an ankle, and now has to face a Bengals defense Monday ranked eighth in the league in rushing yards allowed (93.2 per game). | ||||
BN | 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 | 6 | 15% (-1) | 104 | Heath Miller caught three passes for only 12 yards on Sunday against the Denver Broncos, a disappointing output on a day when Ben Roethlisberger three 55 passes for 380 yards and two touchdowns, but this week he has a more favorable match-up against a Baltimore Ravens defense that is 15th in the NFL with 242.3 passing yards allowed per game but 27th with 28 passing touchdowns allowed. | ||||
BN | 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 | 0 | 15% (-6) | 2318 | Matt Jones managed 10 carries in the win over Buffalo but continues to disappoint with a poor 3.4 YPC on the year. | ||||
BN | 6 | 7% (–) | 190 | Isaiah Crowell rushed nine times for 23 yards and caught three passes for seven more yards on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, but though he out-touched Duke Johnson (12 to 9) he was significantly out-gained by the rookie (30 total yards vs 85), and in Week 16 he will face a stout Kansas City Chiefs run defense that is seventh in the NFL with 92.2 yards allowed per game on the ground. | ||||
