The last few weeks of Fantasy Football have been crazy for managers who have been dealing with injuries to starting quarterbacks, running backs who have taken on more prominence and receivers with lower production due to inconsistent offenses, forcing them to analyze other options and not just be guided by their name or star status.
In addition, some of the defenses have gained momentum in the final stretch of the season, which has changed the expectations of several offensive players, so we recommend that you analyze before choosing your players who they are playing against, how they have performed in recent games and what possibilities they have in Week 15.
Start ‘Em Quarterbacks and Running Backs for Week 15 of the NFL
Managers in need of a reliable QB will find a good option in Jaxson Dart, who faces the Commanders and a defense that has struggled through the air all season. The same goes for J.J. McCarthy, who faces the Dallas Cowboys, who are coming off allowing 44 points to the Detroit Lions
As for the running backs, this week favors Jacksonville Jaguars’ Bhayshul Tuten, who could regain prominence against a Jets defense that has allowed many rushing yards in its last few games. Another name to consider is Chris Rodriguez Jr. of the Commanders who faces the Giants and is an option because he usually gives touchdowns in the red zone.
Start ‘Em: Wide receivers and defenses with favorable matchups in NFL Week 15
This week, wide receivers allow you to rely on profiles like Ricky Pearsall of the 49ers, who faces the Titans and a very vulnerable secondary that tends to allow explosive, high-yardage plays. Even players with tougher weeks like Justin Jefferson of the Vikings and his matchup against the Cowboys and their defense that despite having improved, still allows many touchdowns to receivers.
Defenses also play a key role this week in fantasy and the San Francisco 49ers defense comes rested to a matchup against the Titans and their offense that has been very inconsistent, plus Cam Ward has been captured on multiple occasions. Other defensive options are the Seattle Seahawks or Jacksonville Jaguars who benefit from their Week 15 opponents and could help you score points.
