Terrance Ferguson 4.5 Fantasy Score (MORE)

Trivia time! Who led Rams pass catchers in routes run in Week 15? Puka Nacua? Davante Adams? Colby Parkinson, you say? Well, the answer is none other than Ferguson, whose 29 routes were three more than Nacua tallied against the Lions

The Rams were already near the top of the league in utilizing 13 personnel -- one running back and three tight ends -- this season, and with Adams likely out and the weather not conducive to downfield passing, I think that trend continues and leads to similar route participation for Ferguson.

The Seahawks have been attacked by tight ends frequently this season, which is scheme-related dating back to head coach Mike Macdonald's days with the Ravens. I expect Ferguson to capitalize -- and perhaps even notch his first career touchdown stateside.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba 89.5 Receiving Yards (MORE)

I'm aware the conditions will not be great, but if there's one way to beat the Rams defense it's by going at their cornerbacks.

It won't necessarily need to be all downfield targets for Smith-Njigba. He could rack up a bunch of quick looks, and he is as electric as anyone in the league after the catch.

Matthew Stafford 0.5 Interceptions (MORE)

Interceptions have been few and far between this season for Stafford, but with PrizePicks adding the boost I'm willing to take my chances.

He will be facing a Seahawks defense that is one of the top units in the league, on the road and in a game that would be wet and windy for at least a half. Stafford will also be without the trusty Adams, which opens up the chances for miscommunication with less-experienced receivers.

Stafford may be an MVP candidate, but I'm banking on our interception streak continuing.
