| QB | ![]() |
Andy Dalton251 pass yards, pass TD, INT
At one point this season Dalton was among the most reliable second-tier fantasy quarterbacks. That's no longer the case. His passing totals have been way down the past five weeks, and he has managed just one touchdown in each of the past two weeks. |
| RB | ![]() |
BenJarvus Green-Ellis84 rush yards, rush TD, 2 rec, 19 rec yards
Green-Ellis has gained 100 or more yards of total offense in each of the past four weeks and faces a favorable matchup against an Eagles defense giving up 119.3 rushing yards per game. |
| WR | ![]() |
A.J. Green7 rec, 111 yards, rec TD
Vincent Jackson made the Eagles' secondary look silly last week, so it's a safe bet Green can follow suit. The Bengals' No. 1 wideout has averaged 104 yards in his three previous games against NFC East opponents this season. |
| WR | ![]() |
Andrew Hawkins3 rec, 48 yards
The Bengals have other young receivers seeing as many snaps, but Hawkins' production this season suggests he is clearly the team's No. 2 behind A.J. Green. Even so, since the end of September Hawkins has not produced enough to warrant interest from fantasy owners. |
| TE | ![]() |
Jermaine Gresham4 rec, 56 yards
Gresham has averaged 6.2 targets this season, and he has caught touchdowns in three of his past five games. He is still a No. 2 fantasy tight end, but this week's matchup is better than most. |
| K | ![]() |
Josh Brown2 PATs, 3 FGs
Mike Nugent's strained calf is expected to cost him one more week. Brown isn't a bad pickup for fantasy owners; he made all four of his attempts last week, including one kick from 52 yards. |
| DEFENSE |
INT, 2 Sacks
The Eagles are still a mess, and their offensive line is still full of holes, as evidenced by the six sacks it allowed last week. The Bengals are a sleeper team fantasy owners should look to in Week 15. |

| Pos. | Player | Projection |
| QB | ![]() |
Nick Foles236 pass yards, pass TD, INT, 14 rush yards
Foles is showing progress, but it's been slow. His yards-per-attempt average has improved in each of the past three weeks, and he has not thrown an interception in the past three. He still shouldn't be in fantasy lineups, but it's starting to look like he'll stick around in Philadelphia. |
| RB | ![]() |
Bryce Brown73 rush yards, rush TD, 1 rec, 9 rec yards
LeSean McCoy is still sidelined with a concussion, keeping Brown in the lineup one more week. Cincinnati's 11th-ranked run defense should help Brown bounce back after he struggled against top-ranked Tampa Bay last week. |
| RB | ![]() |
Dion Lewis11 rush yards, 2 rec, 19 rec yards
Bryce Brown's struggles last week (12 carries, six yards) have opened the door for Lewis. Last week Lewis saw half as many snaps as Brown, but finished with more yards from scrimmage thanks to a 28-yard catch. |
| WR | ![]() |
Jeremy Maclin4 rec, 52 yards, rec TD
The Eagles are asking a lot of Maclin right now -- perhaps too much. He was targeted 13 times against the Buccaneers and is the only weapon in the passing game opponents have to fear. The raised profile hurts Maclin's fantasy value more than it helps. |
| WR | ![]() |
Jason Avant3 rec, 42 yards
Avant led the Eagles in receiving last week, taking advantage of the attention paid to Jeremy Maclin. An encore is unlikely, however. The Bengals kept the Cowboys' passing game in check for much of last week and rank among the top 10 in passing yards allowed. |
| TE | ![]() |
Brent Celek3 rec, 38 yards
To play, Celek must gain clearance from the concussion he suffered in last week's win over Tampa Bay. Even if he is able to go, fantasy owners should pencil someone else in at tight end. |
| K | ![]() |
Alex Henery2 PATs, 2 FGs
Henery is coming off arguably the worst outing of his young career, having missed two of three field-goal attempts. Give him a pass. Henery has boasted one of the most accurate legs in the game the past two years. |
| DEFENSE |
INT, 2 Sacks
The Eagles have allowed 30.8 points per game over the past seven weeks, and only Kansas City has a worse turnover ratio than Philadelphia's minus-19. |
