Isiah Pacheco...
Finishes as the RB1 this week
After seeing Jerick McKinnon explode last week, the Kansas City Chiefs turn the page on their playbook. The Chiefs will employ a surprisingly run-heavy game plan focusing on feeding the rock to Isiah Pacheco. We know Patrick Mahomes will get his, but we will see Pacheco emerge as the fantasy star in their Week 15 matchup against the Houston Texans.
Every team runs on the Texans, who cough up a league-worst 168.5 rushing yards per game. Pacheco will be the next RB to terrorize the Texans' defense as the Chiefs salt away the clock. Subsequently, Pacheco produces 100-plus rushing yards and his first career multi-touchdown effort.
Andy Dalton...
Finishes as a top-12 quarterback in Week 15
Fantasy managers know that Andy Dalton is not a good NFL quarterback. And don't look at his horrendous 0-13 record in primetime road starts.
Dalton has been given the dreaded vote of confidence from his head coach Dennis Allen, who stubbornly continues to provide the starting nod to Dalton even though the Saints offense is struggling. Nevertheless, Dalton can produce in certain matchups for fantasy managers.
The Week 15 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons is one of those matchups. The Falcons' defense ranks 27th, surrenders 251.1 passing yards per game, and ranks in the bottom three in DVOA. The translation is that this is an ideal matchup for Dalton, who has produced multiple scores three times this season.
Look for that number to increase after this week with Dalton and the Saints' offense coming off their bye week with a newfound focus and funneling their offense through Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave to an even higher volume.
Chris Moore...
Records his second consecutive WR1 finish with another 100-yard effort
Wow! Where did Chris Moore come from? The veteran wideout came out of nowhere to post career numbers against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14. Moore caught 10 of his 11 targets for 124 yards to finish as fantasy's WR9.
Admittedly, the Texans were without their top two wideouts, Brandin Cooks and Nico Collins, which played a massive part in Moore's breakout. However, the production cannot be denied, and some of his catches were of the highlight variety.
In Week 15, the Texans take on the Kansas City Chiefs, which will lead to a negative game script for the Texans' offense especially considering their top back Dameon Pierce will unlikely suit up.
However, Moore will have plenty of opportunities to continue his fantasy ascension against a Chiefs secondary surrendering the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers on the season. So watch out for another beautiful fantasy week for Chris Moore.
Mike Williams...
Records his second consecutive top-five WR finish
Welcome Back, Mike Williams! Fantasy managers were patiently waiting on the return of the stud wideout, and he didn't disappoint. Williams caught all six of his targets for 116 yards and one touchdown.
He immediately returned to the WR1 conversation with his fourth 100-yard effort this season. The chemistry between Williams and Justin Herbert is beautiful and will be on unique display in Week 15 with their matchup against the Tennessee Titans.
The Titans' defense allows the most fantasy points to wide receivers, and the Chargers cannot run the ball against the stingy Titans' run defense. As a result, the Chargers will air the ball out to the tune of Williams exceeding his Week 14 numbers on his way to another top-five wide receiver finish.
