QB |
| Peyton Manning |
IND |
BUF |
Likely won't play the entire game again in week 17 ( 150 yds pass with 2 TDs ) |

QB |
| Matt Cassel |
KCC |
DEN |
Horrible fantasy numbers against the Broncos at home, a month ago. We're not projecting all that much better for Cassel this time around. ( 185 yds pass with 1 TD and 2 Ints; 15 yds rush ) |

RB |
| Larry Johnson |
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. ( 45 yds rush and 1 TD; 1 catch for 7 yds ) |

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 ) |
| 6 |
RB |
| Joseph AddaiP |
IND |
BUF |
Probably won't play a full 60 minutes ( 50 yds rush and 1 TD; 3 catches for 20 yds ) |

WR |
| Andre Caldwell |
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. ( 4 catches for 56 yds and 1 TD ) |

WR |
| Reggie WayneP |
IND |
BUF |
Actually gets decent stats, even playing less than a full game ( 4 catches for 50 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 6 |
WR |
 | Miles Austin |
DAL |
PHI |
Austin had his 4-game scoring streak stopped last week, but he'll be good for a TD in the finale which the winner will claim the NFC East title! ( 7 catches for 110 yds and 1 TD ) |

TE |
 | Brent Celek |
PHI |
DAL |
Celek now has to be considered to be in the upper echelon of NFL TE's. He consistently gets the yardage and will score every other game. ( 4 catches for 55 yds and 1 TD ) |

TE |
| Spencer Havner |

PK |
| Jay Feely |
NYJ |
CIN |
Feely has been one of the better fantasy kicker options the past few weeks. ( 2 XPs, 2 FGs ) |
| 6 |
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 ) |
