Binge, Stream, Skip: Week 16 Fantasy Football

Game environment is the foundational starting point in making fantasy football lineup decisions. As such, I’m going to break down each game on the slate into three categories: Binge, Stream and Skip.

Games you want to “binge” are like the show you can’t miss; you’re watching as soon as it goes live and might just crush all the episodes in one weekend. These are the start-all-your-guys fantasy games and ones with season-defining storylines.

Games you want to “stream” are like the shows you certainly watch start to finish, but perhaps you’re finishing it over time instead of one shot. While these games might not feature a ton of “must-starts,” we can pick and choose our spots, and the teams are likely to matter in the NFL playoff picture.

Lastly, the games you want to “skip” are like the shows you’re leaning toward passing on, but you might catch an episode here and there (or might stick to reading recaps online to stay up with the culture). There will be a non-obvious player or two who stands out in these games, but overall, they aren’t the best environment for fantasy football.

Let’s dive into my Week 16 Fantasy Football Viewer’s Guide.

The Steelers offense has by and large exceeded expectations with Arthur Smith at the OC gig and Russell Wilson under center. However, their previous matchup with the Ravens didn’t turn into the points-fest many people wanted to see, and it was because their style of attack doesn’t necessarily match up with where the Ravens defense is most vulnerable.

I found it a little more difficult to pinpoint a big concern for the Ravens than I might have imagined going in on the latest Football 301.
