Week 11 TNF Fantasy Preview

By JonRintoul Published November 17, 2022 2 min read

Titans (+3) @ Packers (-170): O/U 41

 

The Titans and Packers square off in a Thursday night game that could have some pretty big playoff implications. Tennessee is hanging on to a narrow lead in the division over a potentially resurgent Colts team, meanwhile the Packers are one game out of the wildcard hunt. The Packers looked like a competent and competitive team in their matchup with the Cowboys last week, which should help make this TNF game a rather appealing contest for fantasy GMs. Both defenses have strengths, but are exploitable in certain aspects. The Titans rank second-best against the run this year, but second-worst against the pass. The Packers rank third for fewest passing yards allowed per game, but have been allowing the seventh-most rushing yards each game. Both sides of the ball should be able to take advantage of these defensive weaknesses, making for some strong fantasy plays on Thursday.

 

Titans

QB

Ryan Tannehill:

Tannehill is a mediocre starting option in the matchup against the Packers this week and their run-funnel defense. Although his numbers likely won’t be spectacular, he is more than capable of producing a game similar to his Week 10 numbers.  In his return to action against the tough Broncos defense, Tannehill threw for 255 yards and two touchdowns. In a week with four regular starting fantasty QBs on bye, Tannehill should slide in somewhere in the QB 10-to-15 range. 

 

RB

Derrick Henry:

The Titans offense runs through Henry and has done so for a few years. He is the RB5 on the season and will always remain a must-start in all formats, especially against the bottom-seven rushing defense of the Packers. He has rushed for at least 82 yards or a touchdown in all but one game this year, averaging 19.7 fantasy points per game in PPR formats.
