Week 12 Notes
The Bears have a golden opportunity to get on track against the horrid Tampa Bay secondary. Same with Keenan Allen and Malcom Floyd against the Rams…if they can pass protect better than Denver did against them in Week 11.
Josh Gordon walks back onto the field with an ideal matchup against the Falcons.

With the change in day and location, Sammy Watkins is back on the fantasy radar against the Jets. I would have been fading that entire game in the snowstorm.
The Broncos have a tough matchup against the Dolphins secondary. Temper expectations.
Cecil Shorts and Allen Hurns will depend on garbage time, and whomever is not opposite Vontae Davis for the Colts. Either way, both are solid plays this week.

Break ties against DeAndre Hopkins and Andre Johnson as the Bengals have been stingy against wide receivers all season.
