NFL Week 15 Fantasy Review: Carolina Panthers at New York Giants, Cam Newton, Greg Olsen, Odell Beckham, Eli Manning

Carolina Panthers

Cam Newton (Quarterback): Newton absolutely set the fantasy world on fire, if you started him he single handedly won you your fantasy matchup. Newton was electric and always ready to put up more fantasy points. He finished the game completing 25 of 45 passing attempts for 340 passing yards and 5 touchdowns. Newton's accuracy was second to none as he tore the Giants apart through the air. He also gained 100 yards on the ground. This is Newton's third 5 touchdown performance in the last 5 games. He is a must start every week.

Greg Olsen (Tight End): Olsen had an impressive game in week 15 as he finished with 79 yards and a touchdown while catching 6 of his 8 targets. Olsen's knee injury did not seem to disrupt his concentration as he had one of his more productive weeks and was one of the more productive options in the passing game.

New York Giants

Odell Beckham JR (Wide Receiver): Beckham had a rough day but fantasy owners must be sick over this situation. Beckham was battling (literally) with Josh Norman all game long as he earned several personal foul penalties. One of the more infamous moments came when ODB ran 15 yards down the field to spear Norman with his the crown of his helmet, this was a legitimate running headbutt that connected with Norman's facemask. ODB was thrown off his game until catching a late touchdown that gave him a pretty decent day. Beckham ended up catching 6 of 9 targets for 76 yards. ODB's aggressiveness would have been fine if it had not been coupled with multiple penalties and now a game suspension that will force him to miss the fantasy championships. In the long run if the Giants lose in week 16 to the Vikings ODB being suspended could be the main reason.  

Eli Manning (Quarterback): Manning got a break when the Panthers let up after going up 35-7. Manning took advantage by suddenly putting up a ton of fantasy points. He finished the game completing 29 of 46 passing attempts for 245 yards and 4 touchdowns. Manning threw an interception but he did infinitely better than anyone thought he would against a strong Panthers pass defense.
