Recap
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 72.70 | 37% (–) | 115 | Baker Mayfield has thrown for multiple touchdowns in four straight games as he leads Tampa Bay into a must-win Week 18 matchup against a Carolina defense that has allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. | ||||
QB | 78.59 | 19% (–) | 133 | Derek Carr has thrown for multiple touchdowns in each of his last four games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against an Atlanta defense that has allowed only 20 passing touchdowns in 16 games this season. | ||||
QB | 86.75 | 35% (+1) | 59 | C.J. Stroud posted modest numbers in his return from a concussion last week, but he has had an outstanding rookie season overall with a 21:5 TD:INT across 14 appearances, and the Texans would take a win any way they can get it with a playoff berth on the line in Week 18 against a Colts pass defense that ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
QB | 93.25 | 28% (–) | 70 | Trevor Lawrence missed Jacksonville's previous game due to a shoulder injury and lost his last four starts before that, but if he's healthy enough to play, Lawrence would return to the starting role for a win-and-in Week 18 road game against Tennessee's middling pass defense. | ||||
QB | 79.14 | 1% (–) | 206 | Mason Rudolph has a stunning 11.1 YPA while leading the Steelers to two straight wins, and with the team still alive for a wild-card berth, he'll get the start again in Week 18 against a Ravens defense that ranks in the top 10 in passing yards and TDs allowed this season but could be resting multiple players. | ||||
WR | 43.63 | 92% (–) | 27 | Stefon Diggs has been held under 50 yards in six of his last seven outings for the Bills, and in Week 18, he'll face a Dolphins defense that has given up 28.0 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
WR | 63.69 | 99% (–) | 1 | CeeDee Lamb is coming off a career-best performance for the Cowboys and will face a dismal Washington pass defense in Week 18 that's allowed the most passing touchdowns in the NFL this season. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 89% (-3) | 2056 | Cooper Kupp has found the end zone in four of the last five games for the Rams and will face a San Francisco squad in Week 18 that may be resting several starters, as the Niners have locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC. | ||||
WR | 63.02 | 91% (–) | 3 | Justin Jefferson has seen exactly 10 targets in three-straight games for the Vikings, averaging 6.0 receptions and 94.7 receiving yards during that stretch, and in Week 18 he'll square off against a Detroit defense that has allowed opposing WR groups to combine for 176.3 receiving yards per contest, which is tied for the fourth-highest average in the NFL this season. | ||||
WR | 19.26 | 92% (-2) | 181 | Deebo Samuel could be rested in Week 18 as San Francisco has locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC, though if he does take the field against the Rams, Samuel would be facing a defense allowing 234.6 passing yards per tilt, which is 24th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 70.25 | 93% (–) | 2 | Tyreek Hill is averaging over 110 yards per outing for the Dolphins this season, and in Week 18, he'll take on a Bills defense that has given up 24.5 fantasy points per game to wide receivers, the seventh-best total in the league. | ||||
WR | 49.64 | 58% (+1) | 13 | Ja'Marr Chase posted modest numbers last week in his return from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury, and with the Bengals having nothing to play for in Week 18, he may call it a day early against a Browns secondary that ranks second in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
RB | 50.14 | 93% (–) | 21 | Bijan Robinson has rushed for at least 70 yards in each of Atlanta's last two games heading into a Week 18 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed the 12th-most rushing yards to opposing running backs this season. | ||||
RB | 54.23 | 86% (–) | 25 | Tony Pollard has fewer than 60 yards rushing in four-straight games for the Cowboys but will face a suspect Washington run defense in Week 18 allowing 126.5 yards per clash on the ground, which is 25th in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 0.00 | 85% (-1) | 2359 | Alvin Kamara could be forced to miss the Saints' Week 18 matchup against Atlanta due to an ankle injury, but even if he suits up he'll face a tough matchup as the Falcons have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. | ||||
RB | 49.62 | 85% (-1) | 28 | Austin Ekeler hasn't gotten into the end zone in the past three games, and even if the Chargers don't rest veterans like him in Week 18, he's unlikely to end the season on a high note against a Kansas City defense that's allowed only six rushing TDs to running backs all year, fifth in the league. | ||||
RB | 56.79 | 64% (+1) | 19 | James Conner scored twice last game for Arizona and will face a dismal Seattle run defense in Week 18 ranked in the bottom-five of the NFL in both rushing yards and rushing touchdowns allowed this season. | ||||
RB | 66.54 | 68% (–) | 10 | Jonathan Taylor has scored a touchdown or topped 90 rushing yards in each of his last seven appearances -- hitting both benchmarks in the same game twice -- and the star Colts running back should play a pivotal role in a win-and-in Week 18 game against a Texans defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards to RBs (1,088) but is tied for the 12th-most rushing TDs (10) allowed to the position. | ||||
RB | 0.00 | 40% (–) | 2277 | Raheem Mostert has scored in all but four games for the Dolphins this season, and if he can go in Week 18 after missing the previous game due to knee and ankle injuries, he would face a Bills defense that has allowed 18.5 fantasy points per game to running backs, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
TE | 0.00 | 94% (-2) | 1819 | Travis Kelce failed to take advantage of a soft matchup last week against the Bengals, and with Kansas City having clinched another AFC West title, he's a prime candidate to be rested in Week 18 against a Chargers defense that ranks in the bottom 10 in catches and receiving yards allowed to tight ends. | ||||
TE | 29.04 | 33% (–) | 45 | Dalton Schultz had just two catches for 19 yards in Houston QB C.J. Stroud's return from a concussion last week, but Schultz is likely to see more involvement in Week 18 against a Colts defense that has allowed the 10th-most yards to tight ends (858). | ||||
W/R | 48.79 | 79% (–) | 8 | Chris Olave disappeared last week but still has at least 90 receiving yards in four of his last six games as New Orleans heads into a Week 18 matchup against a Falcons defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game. | ||||
W/R | 38.46 | 54% (–) | 49 | Tyler Lockett had just one catch last game for Seattle and will face an Arizona defense in Week 18 allowing only 214 passing yards per tilt, which is 13th in the NFL. | ||||
W/R | 48.41 | 64% (+1) | 32 | Kenneth Walker's status for the Seahawks for Week 18 is up in the air due to a shoulder injury; if he can take the field, Walker will take on a suspect Arizona run defense allowing the most rushing yards in the NFL this season. | ||||
W/R | 50.17 | 61% (+1) | 11 | Michael Pittman has caught at least eight passes in 10 of 15 appearances for the Colts this season, and he'll likely see plenty of Week 18 volume against a Houston secondary that has allowed the 12th-most yards to wide receivers, though the Texans' 10 touchdown catches allowed to WRs are second-fewest in the NFL. | ||||
W/R | 0.00 | 42% (–) | 2222 | Jaylen Waddle has just three outings this season of 90 yards or more for the Dolphins, and if he can go in Week 18 after missing the previous game due to an ankle injury, he would take on a Bills defense that has given up 24.5 fantasy points per game to wide receivers, the seventh-best total in the league. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 44.01 | 60% (–) | 52 | Javonte Williams failed to reach 60 scrimmage yards for a third straight game last week, and with the Broncos eliminated from the playoffs, he could cede more touches to rookie Jaleel McLaughlin in Week 18 against a Raiders defense that ranks 25th in rushing yards allowed to RBs. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 46.39 | 1% (–) | 2663 | Bailey Zappe has thrown six touchdown passes over his last four outings for the Patriots, but in Week 18, he'll take on a Jets defense that has allowed 13.8 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season, the third-best total in the league. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 31.65 | 46% (–) | 66 | Drake London has been held below 60 receiving yards in four of his last five games as Atlanta heads into a Week 18 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed the 12th-fewest yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 68.61 | 0% (–) | 179 | |||||
IR | 0.00 | 46% (-1) | 2041 | Amari Cooper missed last week's game due to a heel injury, and with the Browns locked into the No. 5 seed in the AFC, his workload will likely be limited even if he's able to return for a Week 18 clash with a Bengals secondary tied for 28th in receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
IR | 0.00 | 95% (-4) | 2251 | Christian McCaffrey will not play in Week 18 for the 49ers versus the Rams due to a calf strain as well as the fact that San Francisco has clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC. | ||||
IR | 0.00 | 9% (–) | 1831 | |||||
IR | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 2537 | |||||
