Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage was having a relatively quiet day for fantasy purposes until the fourth quarter of a 21-16 loss to the Saints. Gage grabbed a 10-yard touchdown catch with 7:43 left to go in the game, solidifying a 4-50-1 line on eight targets. The 24-year-old seems to benefit when the Falcons have a full complement of weapons beside him, rather than

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook had three receptions for 28 yards and a score on five targets in Week 13. Cook had a somewhat decent performance though it’s worth noting the TE had six total yards in the three games prior to Week 13. Given his inconsistency and overall modest numbers this season, Cook is not a great start going forward. The TE

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre’Quan Smith finished Week 13 with three receptions for 42 yards and a score on six targets. In the three weeks prior to Week 13, Smith had a grand total of two receptions for 30 yards on four targets. The WR is generally not much of a big factor on this offense and has been rather inconsistent in his numbers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley hauled in five of 10 targets for a team-high 108 receiving yards in a losing effort. Ridley’s 108 yards were his highest total since Week 5, as he saw at least nine targets for the third straight game. The 25-year-old made a tremendous, outstretched grab late in the first half, showcasing his elite abilities as a wideout. Ridley should

After allowing 20 points in the first half, the Colts Defense buckled down and shut the Texans down in the second half. They sacked Deshaun Watson five times, recovered one fumble, and forced Watson to throw an interception for the first time since Week 5. The Colts defense also held Watson to zero passing touchdowns, which was the first time all season where Watson failed

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios has been a non-factor in this offense over the last few weeks. Coming into Week 13, Berrios had not recorded a reception during each of the last two contests. He was able to secure both of his targets for 33 yards in the loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Berrios finally made an impact, but it’s not enough

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims was not able to do much damage during the Week 13 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders. He hauled in two of his three targets for 40 yards in the loss. This was the first time that Mims has seen less than seven targets in a game since Week 8. It was a disappointing performance by Mims, but

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders hauled in five receptions for 39 yards on six targets in the Week 13 win over the Falcons. In the past five games, the WR has only gotten over 40 yards once. The passing attack is not that explosive with Taysom Hill under center and Michael Thomas is the only WR getting good weekly production. Sanders is a

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder finally returned to being a valuable fantasy option against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 13. He hauled in five of his seven targets for 47 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. He was coming off three straight dud performances, so fantasy owners will be happy to see Crowder doing something positive. He’ll get a favorable matchup

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones caught six of 10 targets for 94 yards in a 21-16 loss to the Saints. Jones was questionable heading into the contest, though he toughed out the injury to post his fifth game with at least 90 receiving yards this year. The All-Pro wideout has at least seven targets and 50 receiving yards in six games where he’s been

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas ended Week 13 with nine receptions for 105 yards on 11 targets. Thomas is the only reliable receiver on this Saints offense and has produced even without Drew Brees under center. In two of the past three games, the talented wideout has gotten at least nine receptions, 11 targets, and over 100 yards. With such a rich role

Indianapolis Colts tight end Trey Burton was unable to find the end zone for a third consecutive game, so he did not put up a good performance in a win against the Texans. Burton caught just one pass on three targets for 11 yards. Burton has been the most featured tight end in the Colts offense in the majority of the games he has played

New York Jets running back Frank Gore (head) was disappointing to any fantasy owners that trusted him in Week 13. To be fair, it wasn’t his fault as he was knocked out for the rest of the game after suffering a concussion. He rushed once for two yards before a helmet-to-helmet collision landed him on the sideline. Ty Johnson and Josh Adams picked up the

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II carried the ball eight times for 16 rushing yards and caught one pass for four yards in a 21-16 loss to the Saints. Gurley was banged up with a knee injury heading into the contest and was clearly held back, as the coaching staff opted for a running back by committee. Gurley still tied for the second-most carries

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray fell back down to earth on Sunday after rushing for over 100 yards last week. Murray finished Week 13 with five carries for 17 yards and two receptions for zero yards on two targets. The RB had his lowest number of carries since Week 2 and posted his second-lowest rushing total of the season. Nevertheless, Murray has seen

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan completed 19 of 39 passes for 273 yards and one touchdown in a 21-16 loss to the Saints. Ryan got his favorite target back in Julio Jones but was unable to get much going until he salvaged his day with a late, fourth-quarter touchdown pass to Russell Gage. In Ryan’s defense, the New Orleans defense is not what it was

New York Jets running back Josh Adams was not expected to do much of anything heading into this Week 13 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders. However, he was forced into a role after Frank Gore (head) exited the game. Adams rushed eight times for 74 yards in the loss. He was the backup to Ty Johnson who performed fantastic as the lead back in

The Cleveland Browns Defense turned in a decent effort in a 41-35 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. Cleveland finished with three sacks and forced three turnovers, although they almost coughed up a 31-point lead coming out of halftime. The Browns got a sack apiece from Myles Garrett, Malcolm Smith, and Larry Ogunjobi in the winning effort. They also recovered two fumbles and

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Drew Sample caught all seven of his targets for 49 yards during the loss to Miami on Sunday. The 24-year-old arguably had the most productive outing of his career, at least from a volume standpoint. While his receptions total was likely inflated by the ejection of Tyler Boyd, who was booted in the first half for fighting, it was still a

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara had 15 rushes for 88 yards and a score along with two receptions for nine yards on three targets in Sunday’s win over Atlanta. Kamara had been hobbled with a foot injury but still showed out and produced his best rushing total of the season. Though the total of seven receiving yards in the past three games is
