Oakland Raiders

Amari Cooper/Michael Crabtree (Wide Receivers):  This will be a tough matchup for this young Raiders team as these receivers will go up against the a defense that has given up the 13th fewest fantasy points to wide receivers all season long. Cooper's confidence seems to be waning causing him to have a lot of drops and he has less than 10 targets in the last 2 weeks. Cooper should have a higher output than last week but probably won't break out for a big game in this matchup. Crabtree on the other hand saw 11 targets last week and probably will not see the top coverage, which should make him a solid flex starter.

Latavius Murray (Running Back): Tennessee has given up the 5th fewest fantasy points to running backs. In addition to the bad matchup Murray has had less than 20 carries in the last 3 weeks making fantasy owners and Raiders fans question his usage. Murray found the end zone last week but could struggle in this matchup.

 

Tennessee Titans:

Antonio Andrews (Running Back): Andrews outplayed Cobb and was the only running back on the Titans not to get smothered in the backfield. This does not make Andrews a viable fantasy option however Oakland has given up the 8th most fantasy points to running backs and he had his 2nd highest yardage total of the season last week.
