Washington Redskins
Jordan Reed (Tight End): Reed makes the most out of his targets because they all come in the end zone. You wouldn't think that he has missed 3 games because of his 6 touchdowns on the season but he has. Carolina is a tough matchup but if anyone on this side of the ball can score on the Panthers, it's Reed.
Alfred Morris/Matt Jones/Chris Thompson (Running Backs): Jones had his biggest week by far in week 10. It would not shock me at all to see him have another big game, especially in the passing game. Morris had close to 100 yards rushing and should be the power back in this offense. Keep in mind these running backs could turn back into pumpkins after the spectacular week 11 they had.
Carolina Panthers
Cam Newton (Quarterback): Newton is averaging right around 250 plus yards a game and can often gain a ton of yards with his legs. Newton will have a ton of time to scramble against the Redskins and should control the game as he has all season long. He may not hit 300 yards passing but he will have a rushing touchdown. Newton is a QB1 this week.
Jonathan Stewart (Running Back): The Redskins have allowed a 100 yard rusher in four of their last 5 games which bodes well for Stewart. He has been on a roll lately becoming a bigger piece of this Carolina offense. Stewart will attempt to get his second 100 yard game of the season.
Greg Olsen (Tight End): Olsen is always a big part of Newton's game plan and even when he does not get into the end zone he sees a ton of targets. Olsen is going up against a defense that has given up the 6th fewest fantasy points to tight ends so Olsen may struggle to be productive.
