  Cowboys | Dak Prescott goes without a TD in loss    Mon Dec 15, 01:44 AM

  Vikings | J.J. McCarthy accounts for three TDs in Dallas    Mon Dec 15, 12:06 AM

Minnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy completed 15 of 24 passes for 250 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception versus the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15. McCarthy also ran the ball four times for 15 yards and a score.

Footballguys view: McCarthy was far from perfect, but he made more impactful throws than in any of his previous seven starts. As ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert noted, the Vikings' offense is built on chunk plays in the passing game, something McCarthy had not delivered in volume. But he completed five passes that traveled at least 15 yards in the air Sunday night, including a 58-yard throw to Jordan Addison and a 20-yard touchdown to Jalen Nailor. His 250 passing yards are a career high. The Vikings face the Giants in Week 16.

  Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett throws three TDs    Sun Dec 14, 08:08 PM

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett completed 27-of-40 passes for 249 yards, three touchdowns and one interception in Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com notes, the three TDs -- two to Trey McBride and one to Michael Wilson -- were a season high for the veteran QB, but the success is only surprising because it came against a tough Houston defense. Brissett has tossed multiple scores in eight of the last nine games, posting an impressive 18:6 TD to INT ratio since taking over for Kyler Murray (foot) in Week 6. Brissett will look to establish a new career high in passing TDs on a season in Week 16 against the Falcons.

  Chiefs | MRI shows torn ACL for Patrick Mahomes    Sun Dec 14, 07:19 PM

Updating a previous report, Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) had an MRI which showed a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee late in the Week 15 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Mahomes and the team are exploring surgical options. QB Gardner Minshew is expected to take over the starting quarterback to finish the season.

Footballguys view: Now the question is whether Mahomes will be ready for Week 1 next season. The Chiefs don't have any other quarterback under contract for 2026, so we might get a read on their expectations by the moves they make in the offseason. The Chiefs get the Titans next week, so we'll keep Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce in lineups and consider Minshew in 2QB/Superflex leagues.

  Jaguars | Trevor Lawrence accounts for six touchdowns    Sun Dec 14, 06:29 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence went 20-for-32 for 330 yards and five touchdowns against the New York Jets in Week 15. He also rushed for 51 yards and one touchdown on five carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Lawrence was a golden ticket to the next round of the fantasy playoffs. He became the first player in NFL history to throw for five scores, and run for 50 yards and a score in a game. He has been a fantasy QB1 for the last four games with this performance for the ages. You'll need to have a very compelling option at quarterback to leave Lawrence on your bench when he goes to Denver next week.

  Patriots | Drake Maye scores twice on ground     Sun Dec 14, 05:42 PM

New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 14 of 23 for 155 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in a Week 15 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He added scoring runs of eight and seven yards in the first half and finished with 43 yards on four carries.

Footballguys view: Maye was a fantasy success because of two first half rushing scores, but he wasn't able to make plays as a passer once the game tightened up in the second half. The Patriots still have the inside track to win the division, but the Ravens defense is coming on and he won't have a ceiling game for fantasy against them next week unless he improves from this performance.

  Jets | Brady Cook throws one TD, three INTs    Sun Dec 14, 05:31 PM

New York Jets QB Brady Cook went 22-for-33 for 176 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15. He also rushed for 39 yards on six carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Cook played better than his stats indicate, considering that he was an undrafted rookie free agent back in April. His athleticism was NFL quality and Cook was effective enough as a passer to create some fantasy value in the passing game. He is only a desperation play in 2QB/Superflex leagues against the Saints next week, but the Jets passing game is as viable with Cook as it was with Tyrod Taylor or Justin Fields.

  Chiefs | Gardner Minshew finishes up Week 15    Sun Dec 14, 05:28 PM

  Bengals | Joe Burrow throws two INTs    Sun Dec 14, 04:53 PM

Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow went 25-for-39 for 225 yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 15. He also rushed for five yards on two carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Burrow had a miserable afternoon against a defense that he toyed with in 2024 and led eight drives that ended with points two weeks ago. The Ravens got pressure on Burrow all day, and they came up big on multiple fourth down stops. The Bengals postseason hopes are officially over in what has been a frustrating season for him. It was an even more frustrating day for fantasy teams that trusted Burrow.

  Bills | Josh Allen accounts for three touchdowns    Sun Dec 14, 04:34 PM

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 19 of 28 for 193 yards and three touchdowns, and added 48 rush yards on 11 carries in a comeback win Week 15 against the New England Patriots. He had a rush touchdown called back by penalty in the second half.

Footballguys view: It was another superhero performance by Allen, who overcame a 21-0 first half deficit and led the offense to five straight touchdown drives. It was merely an elite QB1 fantasy performance instead of the week winners we have seen at times this season. Allen will face Myles Garrett at Cleveland next week with an outside shot to catch the Patriots following this win.

  Chargers | Justin Herbert throws for 210 yards, TD    Sun Dec 14, 04:06 PM

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert completed 19-of-29 passes for 210 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs, while running twice for no yards.

Footballguys view: Herbert wasn't a great fantasy play, but that was expected. He rallied to make two big throws late in the first half to tighten what was a lopsided game, and he hung in against a relentless Chiefs defense in a physical battle. Herbert will be a consideration a streaming QB1 next week at Dallas with the Chargers making a push to the playoffs.

  Ravens | Two touchdowns for Lamar Jackson    Sun Dec 14, 04:06 PM

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson went 8-for-12 for 150 yards, two touchdowns and one interception against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15. He also rushed for 26 yards on two carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Jackson was hyperefficient and avoided being a bust, but he only threw the ball 12 times. An interception and another possible touchdown glanced off of the hands of Zay Flowers, so there was a better day there for Jackson. Jackson has been out or a disappointment for most of the fantasy season, and he didn't save fantasy teams that overcame that to make the playoffs today. The Ravens, however, still have postseason hopes going into a matchup against the Patriots at home next week.

  Raiders | Kenny Pickett struggles in Week 15 start    Sun Dec 14, 03:58 PM

Las Vegas Raiders QB Kenny Pickett completed 15-of-25 passes for 64 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles, his former team.

Footballguys view: Pickett had trade value in the eyes of two different teams this year, but that probably won't happen again after this anemic performance. He won't be a coveted free agent in the offseason.

  Eagles | Jalen Hurts throws three TDs in Week 15    Sun Dec 14, 03:22 PM

Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts completed 12-of-15 passes for 175 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 15 against the Las Vegas Raiders, while running seven times for 39 yards. He was lifted in the fourth quarter with the Eagles well ahead in a lopsided game. QB Tanner McKee came on and finished up for him.

Footballguys view: Hurts shrugged off his four interception loss on Monday night to make short work of the Raiders in an easy win. He was a strong fantasy play despite only throwing 15 times on an afternoon that also did not see him score a rushing touchdown. He'll be in fantasy playoff lineups next week against the ailing Washington defense.
