QB |
| Joe Flacco |
BAL |
OAK |
Not a great start against a tough pass defense, especially with such a woeful Oakland offense and run defense, but he's been playing better lately and he'll be needed to play well in the playoffs so expect them to throw some. ( 225 yds pass with 3 TDs ) |
| 10 |
RB |
| Matt ForteP |
CHI |
DET |
A hundred on the ground to close out the season. ( 100 yds rush and 1 TD; 2 catches for 10 yds ) |
| 12 |
RB |
 | Chris Johnson |
TEN |
SEA |
Will get to 2,000 and has a good matchup for it too ( 130 yds rush and 1 TD; 2 catches for 25 yds ) |
| 9 |
WR |
| Dwayne Bowe |
KCC |
DEN |
There were only four NFL players targeted more than Bowe, between Week 15 and Week 16. ( 6 catches for 70 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 10 |
WR |
| Calvin Johnson |
DET |
CHI |
Lone fantasy consideration for the Lions. ( 7 catches for 90 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 11 |
WR |
| Andre Johnson |
HOU |
NEP |
Will get his numbers, as usual ( 8 catches for 100 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 8 |
PK |
| Mason Crosby |
GBP |
ARI |
Busy day but too many PATs. ( 5 XPs, 1 FG and 1 missed FG ) |
| 8 |
Def |
| Baltimore Ravens |
BAL |
OAK |
This unit may have become average, but Oakland's offense hasn't. Expect a feasting here as Charlie Frye continues to gift wrap turnovers for the opposition. ( 4 sacks, 3 INTs, 1 Fumble, 13 Points, 290 Yards ) |

QB |
| Mark SanchezQ R |
NYJ |
CIN |
Avoid Sanchez as he has only 1 game with over 200 yards passing in the past 6 weeks. ( 170 yds pass and 1 Int; 10 yds rush ) |
| 0 |
QB |
| Drew Brees |
NOS |
CAR |
Is the 3rd QB on the depth chart this week. |
| 17 |
QB |
| Aaron Rodgers |
GBP |
ARI |
Probably not a full game's worth of stats, but good numbers. ( 250 yds pass with 2 TDs ) |
| 1 |
RB |
| Darren Sproles |
SDC |
WAS |
Has a shot at even more production, depending upon how soon the Chargers ground game becomes the Sproles & Tolbert show. ( 45 yds rush; 3 catches for 30 yds ) |

RB |
| Steve SlatonI |
HOU |

RB |
| Ahmad BradshawP |
NYG |
MIN |
Jacobs won't play so Bradshaw should get the bulk of the carries against this very stingy Minnesota run defense. ( 60 yds rush and 1 TD; 4 catches for 35 yds ) |
| 8 |
RB |
| Joseph AddaiP |
IND |
BUF |
Probably won't play a full 60 minutes ( 50 yds rush and 1 TD; 3 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 8 |
RB |
| Mike Bell |
NOS |
CAR |
Bell will see an increase in carries as the Saints try to preserve Pierre for the playoffs. ( 50 yds rush and 1 TD ) |
| 0 |
RB |
| Pierre Thomas |
NOS |
CAR |
All the New Orleans backs have dealt with injuries this season. Sean Payton will continue to implement a time-share, but Bell could see the bulk of the work as he attempts to keep Pierre healthy for the playoffs. ( 30 yds rush; 1 catch for 10 yds ) |
| 0 |
WR |
| Donald Driver |
GBP |
ARI |
Not getting the touches anymore. ( 4 catches for 40 yds ) |
| 2 |
WR |
| Austin Collie R |
IND |
BUF |
May benefit from sitting the starters ( 5 catches for 65 yds ) |
| 2 |
WR |
| Hakeem Nicks R |
NYG |
MIN |
The rookie has played very well this year and will appear to be just shy of a 1000 yard season. Giants should throw often as the Viking stop the run well. ( 4 catches for 70 yds ) |
| 0 |
WR |
| Brandon Marshall |
DEN |
KCC |
Scratched from the game this weekend. |
| 0 |
WR |
| Chad Ochocinco |
CIN |
NYJ |
They're not playing for anything and are too likely to be pulled early to reliably start anybody. Look elsewhere. The Jets benefit for the second week in a row. ( 3 catches for 44 yds ) |
| 0 |
PK |
| John Carney |
FA* |

PK |
| Lawrence Tynes |
NYG |
MIN |
Expect New York's offense to end their season well against the Vikings, but Tynes is way too great a risk. ( 3 XPs, 1 FG ) |
| 2 |
Def |
| New Orleans Saints |
NOS |
CAR |
Will get run on by Jonathan Stewart. Matt Moore is still unproven and will be without his favorite target. ( 3 sacks, 1 Fumble, 24 Points, 320 Yards ) |
| 8 |
Def |
| Chicago Bears |
CHI |
DET |
The Lions opponent is always ready for a big fantasy day. ( 1 TD, 4 sacks, 3 INTs, 1 Fumble, 10 Points, 200 Yards ) |
