Make sure to come back later as we update the page for the afternoon and night games. Four our Thursday game takes, check out our .New Orleans Saints at Houston TexansTop performers: , RB: 97 yards, 9.70 fantasy points , QB: 228 pa s yards, INT, 7.12 fantasy points , TE: 53 yards, 5.30 fantasy points , WR: 81 yards, TD, 14.10 fantasy points , QB: 205 pa s yards, 2 TD, INT, -3 rush yards, 13.90 fantasy points , TE: 72 yards, TD, 13.20 fantasy pointsJust in case you didn't believe that the defense had turned a corner, look no further than today's shutdown of the offense. For the first time since Sean Payton took over as New Orleans head coach, failed to throw a touchdown pa s. Much of the credit goes to the pa s rush, led by 's two sacks. The running game didn't offer a whole lot either with logging 52 rushing yards. If you're looking for a bright spot in the pa sing game, Ben Watson had a team-high 53 yards. So there's that. was supposed to have all of the fantasy points today against the woeful defense. But the fantasy gods are cruel and they shackled Nuk, limiting him to just 36 yards on five catches. Instead, helped absolutely no one with his 72 receiving yards and a touchdown. Thanks a lot. If you made the move to start , good on ya! The running back was one of six with a rushing attempt, leading the way with 81 scrimmage yards and a rushing touchdown. Still, this was not the production we were hoping for.San Diego Chargers at Jacksonville JaguarsTop performers: , QB: 300 pa s yards, 4 TD, 9 rush yards, 28.90 fantasy points , TE: 53 yards, 2 TD, 17.30 fantasy points , WR Jaelon Darden Jersey : 92 yards, TD, 15.20 fantasy points , QB: 329 pa s yards, 2 TD, INT, 33 rush yards, 22.46 fantasy points , TE: 116 yards, TD, 17.60 fantasy points , WR: 56 yards, TD, 11.60 fantasy points Welcome back, ! The veteran quarterback had been driving the struggle bus recently although injuries to his receivers had a lot to do with it. But he rebounded in a big way with 300 yards and four touchdowns (two to his BFF ). It was the performance we'd been waiting for -- if you had the wisdom to start him this week. The are still trying to force feed in the running game and while he was better (14 rush, 60 yards), he's still not worthy of starting for your fantasy team. continues to be the quarterback that succeeds in fantasy despite himself. The signal-caller threw a pick and had a pair of boneheaded throws that came well acro s the line of scrimmage, yet he still finished with 22 fantasy points. This was also the breakout game that we'd been waiting on for awhile. started the game well, but was inexplicably ignored later in the contest in favor of . left the game on a stretcher and was diagnosed with a concu sion. It will be imperative to keep an eye on his progre s going forward.Minnesota Vikings at Atlanta FalconsTop performers: , QB: 174 pa sing yards, INT, 4.66 fantasy points , RB: 31 touches, 187 total yards, 2 TD, 30.70 fantasy points , WR: 4 rec, 31 yards, 3.10 fantasy points , TE: 7 rec, 53 yards, 5.30 fantasy points , QB: 230 yards, TD, 2 INTs, 9.10 fantasy points , RB: 18 carries, 110 yards, 9.0 fantasy points , WR: 5 rec, 56 yards, 5.60 fantasy points , WR: 6 rec, 60 yards, 6.0 fantasy points , TE: 5 rec, 69 yards, 6.90 fantasy pointsThe won this game exactly how they want to, on the back of and big plays from their defense. Peterson was a wrecking ball in this game, catching two big gainers, busting a long touchdown run and scoring at the goal line. With sinking into the quicksand that is the offense, Peterson is once again the RB1 overall in fantasy. The pa sing offense e sentially offers nothing. Bridgewater threw just 28 pa ses, and with that game script, there is not much for . He's a WR3 at best going forward. If you started the defense, rewarded you two of the three turnovers off . He was the best player on the field today. is a problem for both the and ' fantasy owners. The veteran quarterback is mired in the middle of his worst season while adjusting to Kyle Shanahan's offense. Not having hurt, as well. 's stat line looks nice, but he hurt the team with a fumble on the end of a 46 yard run (41 percent of his yardage) and multiple drops. He's an incredibly volatile player in fantasy and on a down-to-down basis. It's hard to know what to tell you with . He's obviously a weekly starter, but you have to be a little worried about his consistent ceiling right now. Oakland Raiders at Tenne see TitansTop performers: , QB: 330 pa sing yards, 3 TDs, 23. 70 fantasy points , RB: 23 touches, 82 total yards, 8.20 fantasy points , WR: 7 rec, 115 yards, 11.50 fantasy points , WR: 4 rec, 19 yards, Zack Johnson Jersey TD, 7.90 fantasy points , WR: 6 rec, 113 yards, 2 TDs, 23.30 fantasy points , WR: 218 pa sing yards, 3 TDs, 2 INTs, 19.42 fantasy points , RB: 12 touches, 46 total yards, 4.60 fantasy points , WR: 3 rec, 29 yards, TD, 8.90 fantasy points , TE: 6 rec, 91 yards, 9.10 fantasy pointsThe didn't come out firing in the first half, but their pa sing offense came out with an all-around solid game. rebounded after two back-to-back poor games to top 300 yards and to sed three touchdowns. and both came away with solid games, but it was that outdid them both. Roberts has posted sporadic strong stat lines and could be someone to stash on dynasty rosters.The offense is not very good, although continues to post good quarterback streaming numbers. is clearly the No. 1 target, and he had a solid all-around fantasy day. However, Oakland continues to give up touchdowns to the backup tight ends, as caught the scoring pa s. The run game is evaporating, as well. This is about what we can usually expect from this offense, with Walker and Mariota being the only usable a sets. Miami Dolphins at New York JetsTop performers: , QB: 351 pa s yards, 3 TDs, INT, lost fumble, 22.04 fantasy points , RB: 2 rush yards, 11 rec yards, 1.30 fantasy points , WR: 165 rec yards, 4 rush yards, 1 TD, 22.90 fantasy points , WR: 80 rec yards, TD, 14.00 fantasy points , WR: 9 rec yards, TD, 6.90 fantasy points , QB: 277 pa s yards, 4 TDs, 21 rush yards, 29.18 fantasy points , RB: 87 rush yards, rush TD, 15 rec yards, 16.20 fantasy points , WR: 131 rec yards, 2 TDs, 25.10 fantasy points , WR: 62 rec yards, TD, 12.20 fantasy points , WR: 33 rec yards, TD, 9.30 fantasy points This just in: trims beard, throws four touchdown pa ses against . Keep that thing clean, Fitz! Oh right, you want analysis. Well the wide receivers had a field day against Miami on Sunday combining for four touchdowns which meant fantasy points for everyone. But it was who had the huge day soaking up a team-high nine receptions on 11 targets for 131 yards and two scores. also proved why he's one of the most efficient wideouts in fantasy with another score of his own. also bounced back for fantasy owners here after a string of slow games. Ivory broke somewhere close to 1,000 tackles on his ridiculous 31-yard touchdown run in the second half. He gained over 100 yards from scrimmage on his 23 touches in the game and remains a top-notch RB2 for fantasy owners. Miami's offense had a tough time getting anything going in the first half and headed into the locker room at halftime with zero points. Because the ' run game was virtually non-existant (they combined for 12 rush yards as a team), Tannehill attempted 58 pa ses when all was said and done. He did save some face with three touchdown pa ses in the second half, but it was too little too late against a team that had already racked up too big of a lead to overcome. He can't be trusted as a fantasy starter. had his second straight disappointing game as he gained just two rush yards on five attempts. Miller again had just eight touches the entire game. He needs more volume to be a valuable fantasy a set so we'll have to hope he gets more opportunities next week against the . At least came through for fantasy owners with his biggest game of the season. Landry hauled in 13 of his 16 targets for 165 yards and a score. Landry remains a high-end WR2, especially in PPR formats. One last takeaway here, rookie saw 10 targets in the game and although he only caught four pa ses, he managed 80 yards and his first touchdown as a pro. It will be interesting to see if he's a bigger part of this Miami offense going forward.St. Louis Rams at Cincinnati BengalsTop performers: , QB: 228 yards, 3 INTs, 2 rush yards, 3.32 fantasy points , RB: 19 rush yards, 11 rec yards, 3.00 fantasy points , WR: 63 rush yards, 1 rush TD, 33 rec yards, 15.60 fantasy points , QB: 233 pa s yards, 3 TDs, INT, 4 rush yards, 19.72 fantasy points , WR: 61 rec yards, 2 TDs, 18.10 fantasy points , RB: 16 rush yards, 51 rec yards, 6.70 fantasy points , RB: 86 rush yards, 14 rec yards, 10.00 fantasy points , TE: 40 rec yards, TD, 10.00 fantasy points The subjugated the on Sunday by a score of 31-7. Despite the bad matchup on paper, found succe s in the pa sing game, completeing 20 of his 27 attempts and threw three touchdown pa ses, two to and one to to lead his team to a victory. It was nice to see Green back in the end zone since he hadn't scored since Week 8. He remains a low-end WR1 for now. Eifert, who leads the NFL with 12 receiving touchdowns just keeps on scoring game after game. Unfortunately he left this one early with what the team called a shoulder stinger, so we'll have to keep an eye on his status heading into Week 13. ran well against the with 86 yards on 16 attempts and he and combined for over 100 rush yards in the game. Bernard also collected 51 yards in the pa sing game. For once, Hill actually scored double digit fantasy points without getting into the end zone, which is a good sign. Unfortunately, Hill left the game early with an ankle injury, so we'll be keeping a close eye on his status in the coming days. The were simply atrocious on offense. attempted 46 pa ses in the game, while throwing three picks and zero touchdowns. Toddy Gurley struggled as well gaining just 19 yards on nine rush attempts and failed to reach the end zone, breaking his streak of five straight games with a score. Despite his recent decline Gurley remains a must-start in fantasy each and every week. was the lone bright spot here, as he totaled 99 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 10 touches, including one 60-yard run. Austin carries some risk from week to week since he is so inconsistent and will be a boom-or-bust option for the rest of the season. The take on the next week so things won't get any easier for them. Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Indianapolis ColtsTop performers: , QB: 245 yards, TD, INT, 27 rush yards, 14.5 fantasy points , RB: 97 rush yards, 1 rec yard, 9.8 fantasy points , WR: 5 rec, 64 yards, 6.4 fantasy points , WR: 4 rec, 76 yards, 7.6 fantasy points , QB: 315 yards, 2 TDs, 20.3 fantasy points , RB: 24 rush yards, 13 rec yards, 3.7 fantasy points , WR: 6 rec, 95 yards, 2 TDs, 21.5 fantasy points , WR: 8 rec, 114 Luke Wypler Jersey yards, 11.4 fantasy pointsThe upstart Bucs offense hit a bit of a speed bump against the . continues to be plagued by drops, with a particularly bad one that could have been a touchdown. He should rebound just fine, as he has a safe target volume (10 more today). ran well once again, and was held without a score once again. He's still in the RB1 discu sion week-in and week-out. Winston's day could have been better had Evans not suffered through so many drops. He's showing a lot of progre s as an NFL quarterback and should have some nice value down the stretch. had his finest day under center this year, picking apart the Bucs' secondary to the tune of 315 yards and two touchdowns. He's a fine streaming option the rest of the way, at least until comes back. battled knee and quad injuries during the week, but was still fed 19 carries. He only managed a paltry 24 yards, though. We still like him as a low-end RB2, as his volume will lead to better fantasy days against better matchups. Both and came back to life with good fantasy days, though Hilton was the only one to find the end zone. Both will remain in the weekly WR3/flex discu sion until we see this level of production on a more consistent basis. left the game with a wrist injury.Buffalo Bills at Kansas City ChiefsTop performers: , QB: 291 yards, 3 TDs, 46 rush yards, 26.24 fantasy points , RB: 70 rush yards, 31 rec yards, TD, fmbl, 14.1 fantasy points , WR: 6 rec, 158 yards, 2 TDs 27.8 fantasy points , QB: 255 yards, 2 TDs, 35 rush yards, 21.7 fantasy points , RB: 114 rush yards, TD, 17.5 fantasy points , WR: 9 rec, 160 yards, TD, 22 fantasy points , TE: 4 rec, 69 yards, TD, 12.9 fantasy pointsThere was a surprising amount of offense in this game, considering the defenses involved and rainy conditions. exploded in the first half with 6 catches, 158 yards and two touchdowns, but the locked down their coverage and held him catchle s in the second half. He's still somewhat of a boom-or-bust prospect in fantasy, because as Chase Stuart pointed out, Watkins has . had a monster day, with three pa sing touchdowns and 46 rushing yards, reminding us of what he can do on the field and in fantasy when he's on his game. posted 101 total yards and a receiving touchdown to round out another nice fantasy day. left with a shoulder injury. threw the rock pretty well, connecting on deep pa ses to and . He has a decent upcoming schedule and the offense is clicking, making him an interesting streaming candidate. Maclin finished with a fantastic line of nine catches, 160 yards and a touchdown ... if any owners were bold enough to start him after a slump. He gets the Oakland secondary next week and is well on his way to getting back into our good graces. It was great seeing Kelce find the end zone again, which he needs to do to return low-end TE1 value. With out with a hamstring injury, was the workhorse, with 19 of the team's 20 running back carries. He notched 114 yards and a touchdown on the ground, proving a great spot start for those who scooped him up off of waivers this week. The tend to feed one back, but perhaps they'll go to a bit more of a committee once West returns, as Ware offers a nice power complement to West's skill set. The situation will need to be monitored and Ware needs to be held onto.New York Giants at Washington RedskinsTop performers: , QB: 321 yards, 2 TDs, 3 INTs, 14.84 fantasy points Jr., WR: 9 rec, 142 yards, TD, 20.2 fantasy points , QB: 302 yards, TD, 22.18 fantasy points , RB: 23 carries, 78 yards, 13 rec yards, 9.1 fantasy points , WR: 2 rec, 66 yards, TD, 12.6 fantasy points , TE: 8 rec, 98 yards, 9.8 fantasy pointsThe were thoroughly dominated for most of this game, with Jr. as the only way the offense could move the football for much of the game. If you mi sed his other-worldly touchdown catch, check it out in the video to the right. caught just one of his six targets, but it was for a deep touchdown. Don't chase the points. The backfield carries were split between all four backs again, further reminding owners that this is one to avoid in fantasy. had some unlucky interceptions, as two bounced off of his receivers' hands. He'll be a low-end QB1 the rest of the season.The Washington offense got exactly what they needed and what we've come to expect from their pa s-catcher. got on top of the defense for a long touchdown, but only had one other catch. was fed targets and nearly hit the century mark in yardage. Those that stuck with as a streaming candidate were rewarded with a solid outing. He's still only a matchup-based streamer, and ideally when he plays at home. In the battle of frustrating fantasy backfields, was surprisingly fed 23 carries (with seeing just 8). Morris ran well, but there's no way to trust whether he'll see this amount of volume again. He, and his backfield cohorts need to remain on the fantasy bench.Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ersTop performers: , QB: 271 pa s yards, 6 rush yards, TD, 17.44 fantasy points , WR: 99 yards, 9.90 fantasy points , RB: 29 yards TD 8.90 fantasy points , QB: 318 pa s yards, TD, INT, 11 rush yards, 15.82 fantasy points , TE: 71 yards, TD, 13.10 fantasy points , WR: 93 rush yards, 9.30 fantasy points On a day when the wrath of the fantasy gods Sione Takitaki Jersey was fierce, the were unable to escape punishment. The team lost both (knee) and (foot) to injuries while and the pa sing game could never get going. Give some credit to the defense, which has played better at home this season. Were it not for Palmer's rushing touchdown, the fantasy offense would have been completely irrelevant. is starting to make us believe. We don't want to because once it happens, our hearts will be broken. But it's undeniable that the Niners offense has been much more functional with him at the controls. The change under center has also made and rosterable. There's no good argument to be made for starting any of those players on a weekly basis, but maybe there's a little more life in the Niners offense than we previously believed.Pittsburgh Steelers at Seattle SeahawksTop performers: , QB: 456 pa s yards, TD, 2 INTs, 18 rush yards, 22.04 fantasy points , RB: 29 rush yards, TD, 88 rec yards, 17.70 fantasy points , WR: 51 rec yards, 5.10 fantasy points , WR: 69 rec yards, 11 rush yards, rush TD, 14.00 fantasy points , WR: 201 rec yards, TD, 26.10 fantasy points , QB: 345 pa s yards, 5 TDs, 14 rush yards, 35.20 fantasy points , RB: 81 rush yards, 1 TD, 14.10 fantasy points , TE: 75 rec yards, 7.5 fantasy points , WR: 145 rec yards, 3 TDs, 32.50 fantasy points , WR: 47 rec yards, 2 TDs, 16.70 fantasy points There were a TON of fantasy points to go around in this back-and-forth nail-biter that saw seven lead changes. First of all, holy . The No. 3 wideout led his team in receiving with nine receptions for over 200 yards, including a 69-yard touchdown reception. Let's be honest ... nobody saw that coming. We'll consider this an anomaly since he hasn't had more than three catches or 72 yards in a game yet this season. broke the record the most pa sing yards the allowed by , with 456. Unfortunately he only managed to throw one touchdown pa s in the game but still finished with over 20 fantasy points. scored on a rushing touchdown in the first half which gave his fantasy owners a bit of a boost since he had just 69 receiving yards. was pretty much shut down here, but we have a feeling he will be just fine. did most of his damage in the pa sing game but did score a rushing touchdown on one of his eight carries. Oh my ! The quarterback surpa sed for the week's highest scoring fantasy player on the heels of a 345-yard, five touchdown game. He to sed three touchdowns to , including an 80-yarder late in the fourth quarter that basically served as the nail in the coffin. also had a nice day with two touchdowns of his own. Baldwin finished with 145 yards and his three scores on just six catches. That's an average of 24.2 yards per catch. Unfortunately, his fantasy production is too inconsistent to rely on week in and week out. did what fantasy owners hoped he would, with 81 yards and a rushing touchdown on 21 carries. He'll remain an RB1 going forward. Some bad news came from this game as suffered what looked like a serious knee injury on an incompletion in the end zone, and he he had to be carted off. We'll be anxious for updates on his status but it didn't look good. New England Patriots at Denver BroncosTop performers: , QB: 280 yards, 3 TDs, 23.2 fantasy points , RB: 11 rush yards, 84 rec yards, TD, 15.5 fantasy points , WR: 4 rec, 36 yards, 3.6 fantasy points , TE: 6 rec, 88 yards, TD, 14.8 fantasy points , QB: 270 yards, TD, INT, 13.2 fantasy points , RB: 59 rush yards, TD, 11.9 fantasy points , RB: 113 rush yards, 2 TDs, 40 rec yards, 27.3 fantasy points , WR: 6 rec, 113 yards, 11.3 fantasy pointsLet's get this out of the way first: Gronk was carted off with a right knee injury. Stay tuned, and send positive thoughts Gronks way. Hopefully he isn't lost for the season. He was seen walking to the lockerroom after getting X-rays, so that's encouraging. Now, on to the rest of the game ... was his typical god-like self, throwing three touchdown pa ses and collecting 280 yards against the NFL's best defense. In the backfield, it is as we feared: #Belitricks have returned. only saw nine carries Seth DeValve Jersey on a snowy night that seemed catered to his downhill style, while racked up 84 receiving yards and a touchdown (63 of them on the scoring play). led a -le s wide receiving corps with just 36 yards. also got in on the scoring action, and will be a name to watch on the waiver wire depending on how severe Gronk's injury is. ... where have you been all season? OK, admittedly we noted that Anderson has been playing like it's 2014 since his bye (when his foot was finally able to heal), but this performance was something else. Anderson showe the power, cutting ability and speed that made owners draft him in the first or second round. He'll be pushing for RB2 status the rest of the way, but also looked good and will continue to see a plenty of touches. This is a backfield that looks like it can support two fantasy options, as 's mobility has allowed the running game to flourish in Gary Kubiak's true system. Osweiler had an OK day against a good defense. He can be streamed in the right situations down the stretch. had a night to forget, with just one catch on 13 targets. looks healthy and is back to being an every-week WR2. Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland BrownsTop performers: , QB: 232 pa s yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs, 10 rush yards, 14.28 fantasy points , RB: 55 rush yards, 29 rec yards, rec TD, 14.40 fantasy points , WR: 80 rec yards, TD, 14.0 fantasy points D/ST: 2 sacks, 1 return TD, blocked FG returned for TD, 27 pts allowed, 14.00 fantasy points , QB: 212 pa s yards, TD, 12 rush yards, 13.68 fantasy points , RB: 27 rush yards, 23 rec yards, 5.00 fantasy points , TE: 91 rec yards, 9.10 fantasy points , WR: 10 rush yards, 90 rec yards, rec TD, 16.00 fantasy points , WR: 10 rec yards, TD, 7.00 fantasy points For all the hype about this Monday night matchup being, well, not a good one, it had one heck of a finish. The beat the on the final play of regulation. came out to kick a potential game-winning field goal for Cleveland, but the kick was blocked and returned by defender for a touchdown. That's not something we see every day. And for fantasy owners, there was actually a lot to be excited about. In his first NFL start, rookie running back scored a receiving touchdown early in the game. He netted about 14 fantasy points on 16 total touches, which is just fine for your RB2 slot. De facto No. 1 wideout also stepped up for fantasy owners in need, as he was targeted a team high 10 times and hauled in six receptions for 80 yards and a score. Based on pure volume alone, he should be at least a flex play going forward. did what he does, and yes even threw a pick-six. But he still managed over 14 fantasy points. You're not going to use him in fantasy but it was good to see him capable of moving the offense. The running game was anemic as usual. gained just seven yards on seven carries and he can be cut loose to the waiver wire. For some reason, only had seven touches, so we'd like to see more volume before we can feel ok starting him in fantasy. The big story for the was who was solid with 91 yards, and who was targeted a team-high 13 times and scored on a deep pa s from backup quarterback . Yep, came in for an injured who went out in the fourth quarter with a shoulder injury. We'll have to see if he can get healthy heading into Week 13, but he's been banged up this year and is 36-years-old so we're not banking on it.
