Atlanta Falcons
Julio Jones (Wide Receiver): With this Atlanta offense floundering fantasy owners are going to have a hard time trusting Julio Jones against Josh Norman and this Carolina defense. The Panthers have given up the 7th fewest fantasy points to wide receivers which makes Julio Jones a pretty risky play.
Devonta Freeman (Running Back): Freeman could have a big day catching the football out of the backfield as the Panthers are notoriously bad at stopping that and similar screen plays. Freeman should maintain his value even if this offense is crumbling; the Panthers have given up the 16th most fantasy points to running backs.
Carolina Panthers
Cam Newton (Quarterback): The Falcons have allowed the second fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks and Cam Newton took a beating in week 13. Newton has had 10 touchdowns in the last 3 games and his production does not seem to be slowing down. Fantasy owners have to ride Newton's hot streak.
Jonathan Stewart (Running Back): The Falcons have allowed the 4th most fantasy points to running backs and Stewart has 20 rushing attempts in 8 straight games. The Falcons have allowed 355 rushing yards in the last 2 games. Stewart is looking like an RB1 this week.
Greg Olsen (Tight End): Olsen faces a defense that gives up the 10th most fantasy points to tight ends. Olsen is the best tight end in fantasy football while Gronkowski is out and he should be the most productive as well.
