Recap
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 4 | 15% (–) | 127 | Gardner Minshew has gone 7-5 as a starter this season and could lead the Colts to an improbable playoff berth if he can muster a Week 18 home win over a Texans defense that has allowed the seventh-most passing yards and the most rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks (seven) but is tied for the fewest passing TDs allowed (17). | ||||
WR | 2 | 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. | ||||
WR | 1 | 12% (–) | 120 | Josh Downs hasn't exceeded 53 yards or scored a touchdown in his last eight games for the Colts heading into a must-win Week 18 home game against a Houston defense that has allowed 10 touchdowns to wide receivers, which is second-fewest in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 0 | 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. | ||||
TE | 0 | 89% (-2) | 207 | George Kittle 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, Kittle would be facing a defense allowing 234.6 passing yards per tilt, which is 24th in the NFL. | ||||
W/T | 1 | 24% (+1) | 103 | Gabe Davis has been held to fewer than 25 yards in four of his last six outings for the Bills, and in Week 18, he gets 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. | ||||
BN | 0 | 62% (-2) | 2470 | |||||
BN | 0 | 0% (–) | 1760 | Kylen Granson has exceeded 60 yards three times but failed to reach 25 yards in all but one other game for the Colts, and his inconsistent role will make the tight end tough to trust in Week 18, even against a Texans defense that has allowed the fourth-most yards to his position (983). | ||||
BN | 1 | 1% (–) | 153 | Alec Pierce posted more than 50 yards and a touchdown for the second time this season last week despite seeing only one target, but he has exceeded 50 yards only three times heading into the Colts' Week 18 home game against a Houston defense that has allowed the second-fewest TD catches to wide receivers (10). | ||||
BN | 1 | 13% (–) | 1783 | Zack Moss has missed Indianapolis' last two games due to a forearm injury, and even if he returns in Week 18 against a Houston defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards to running backs, Moss will likely cede the vast majority of carries to Jonathan Taylor. | ||||
BN | 0 | 0% (–) | 1784 | |||||
Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Kickers | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
K | 7 | 27% (–) | 139 | Matt Gay has made multiple field goals in nine of his last 14 games for the Colts heading into a pivotal Week 18 home game against a Texans team that ranks in the middle of the pack with 20.9 points allowed per game. | ||||
BN | 7 | 89% (–) | 160 | Harrison Butker booted a season-high six field goals last week, but he may not get as many opportunities in Week 18 as Kansas City takes on a Chargers team that's far more prone to giving up touchdowns, sitting tied for 25th in points per game allowed but tied for sixth in FG attempts allowed. | ||||
