Recap
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 73 | 95% (–) | 6 | Josh Allen has thrown for at least two touchdowns in all but four outings this season for the Bills, and in Week 18, he gets a Jets defense that ranks last in DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 17 | 92% (–) | 18 | Deebo Samuel has been held below 90 total yards in three of the 49ers' last four games, but his usage will continue to give him big upside potential in a Week 18 matchup against a Rams defense that's given up over 180 yards and the 13th-most fantasy points per game to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 15 | 61% (–) | 38 | Michael Pittman crossed the 1,000-yard threshold last week, and the Colts' top receiving option will look to finish his breakout sophomore season on a high note in Week 18 against a Jaguars defense that's allowing 27.9 points per game -- second-most in the league. | ||||
WR | 13 | 47% (+1) | 69 | Brandin Cooks has caught 22 passes for 269 yards and three touchdowns over his past three games, so Houston's top wide receiver is rolling ahead of a Week 18 visit from a Titans secondary that has the second-most yards (2,966) to wide receivers, as well as 17 touchdowns to the position. | ||||
RB | 32 | 96% (–) | 1 | Jonathan Taylor has an ideal Week 18 matchup to close out the regular season, as the Colts need a win to secure a playoff berth and will take on a hapless Jaguars defense that allowed four rushing touchdowns last week and 273 rushing yards the game before that. | ||||
RB | 17 | 61% (–) | 42 | Rashaad Penny has posted at least 135 yards and one touchdown in three of Seattle's last four games, and he should continue to see volume in a Week 18 matchup against a Cardinals defense that's allowed 105 rushing yards per game and the 11th-fewest fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
TE | 13 | 69% (–) | 37 | Dalton Schultz has a staggering 27 targets over the last three games but could be rested in Week 18 versus the Eagles as Dallas cannot likely alter its playoff seeding in any meaningful capacity. | ||||
W/R/T | 12 | 67% (–) | 63 | Brandon Aiyuk has posted at least 36 yards in each of the 49ers' last five games, and he'll continue to have a moderate scoring floor in a Week 18 matchup against a Rams defense that's given up over 180 yards and the 13th-most fantasy points per game to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
BN | 0 | 31% (-1) | 2202 | Tony Pollard could see increased usage in Week 18 if the Cowboys decide to rest their starters versus the Eagles, though Philadelphia is allowing just 103.9 rushing yards per game and with Pollard's value to the club still high, his health may not be risked either. | ||||
BN | 8 | 46% (–) | 106 | Noah Fant is coming off his most productive game since Week 6, but the Broncos' tight end may not be able to repeat the performance in Week 18 against a Kansas City defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in production allowed to TEs. | ||||
BN | 0 | 55% (-2) | 2441 | Jalen Hurts failed to find the end zone last game for the Eagles and it remains to be seen how much he will play in Week 18 versus the Cowboys as both teams have locked up playoff spots and can only maneuver slightly in terms of seeding; if Hurts plays the majority of the contest, he will face a Dallas defense allowing 242.7 passing yards per tilt, which is 24th in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 11 | 1% (+1) | 98 | Zay Jones has seen at least seven targets in four straight games, amassing a 25-262-0 line on 32 targets over that stretch, and he should see solid volume again in Week 18 as the Raiders take on a Chargers defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in passing yards per game allowed and passing TDs allowed. | ||||
BN | 11 | 6% (–) | 94 | Gabriel Davis has scored in three of his last four games for the Bills, and in Week 18, he gets a Jets defense that ranks 31st in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||

K | 9 | 84% (–) | 150 | Matt Gay had his second game of the season with fewer than eight points last week for the Rams, but he'll remain one of the steadiest kicking options in the league in a Week 18 matchup against a 49ers team that's allowed 6.4 points per game to opposing kickers over the last five weeks. | ||||
