offensive dud in Week 15 before their Week 16 eruption, I'd stack Bengals in 2022 drafts, and would confidently start Burrow/Mixon/Higgins/Chase in Week 17 vs KC
Chase/Higgins both projecting as WR1 types for me this week
Uzomah a TE streamer, 15% tgt share Week 16, 6+ targets
in 3 of his past 4 games
CLE
Start Chubb, Landry a low ceiling flex. Avoid the others
I'd rather start Javonte/Gordon over all of them, but still low ceiling/floor
Drew Lock IS a gunslinger (11 air yards per attempt Week 16), but only 22 attempts for 153 passing
yards
DEN had only 36 COMBINED passAtt + rushAtt Week 16, clearly they don't trust Lock and want their defense to do the heavy lifting
No DEN player even had more than 10 PPR in Week 16, Lock included 🥶

Now, on to DET⬇️
Tim Boyle started this one, Amon-Ra STILL produced
Week 16
Amon-Ra: 30 routes, 11 tgt, 9-91-1 + 2-19 on the ground, 26 PPR
D'Andre Swift likely returns Week 17, likely hurts Amon-Ra's target share as Swift was Goff's security blanket, and Amon-Ra's spike weeks have aligned with
no D'Andre Swift
I'd still start Amon-Ra Week 17, but wouldn't expect double digit targets again if Swift is active
8+ targets 3 of the past 4 weeks, and his only dud in that span was vs NE when he was covered by JC Jackson and Wentz only attempted 12 passes all game
However, Wentz unvaccinated so strong chance he misses
If so, I'd sit
every IND player not named Jonathan Taylor.
Even JT needs tempered expectations Week 17
Maybe without Wentz, definitely a majority of the OLine is backups
I'd pick up the Raiders DST in case Sam Ehlinger gets his 1st career start on Sunday
JAX ⬇️⬇️
1 TD pass for Lawrence the past 8 (!) weeks
Don't start any JAX WRs in your championship matchup
However, do start Dare Ogunbowale with James Robinson OUT (achilles) and Hyde OUT (concussion)
Patriots shut down rookie QBs and struggling QBs (Lawrence is both), but we can
