Is Derrick Henry in position to be a fantasy hero yet again this season? It sure looks like it, as Rich Hribar breaks down Henry’s incredible 2018-19 stretch here:

Derrick Henry's past 16 games played…

303 RuAtt
1616 RuYds (5.3 YPC)
18 RuTD (with a RuTD in 12/16 games)
19 Rec
209 ReYd
2 ReTD

Henry is the No. 5 running back in our Expert Consensus Rankings (1/2 PPR) for this week’s encounter with Indianapolis. Don’t be surprised to see him finish top-3 despite the difficult matchup.

Andy Behrens chimes in next with a compelling reason to find alternate plans if you’re rostering a Houston Texans wide receiver this week:

Here are the top-5 WR performances YTD vs. New England:

1. Golden Tate, 6-102-1
2. Randall Cobb, 4-86-0
3. JuJu, 6-78-0
4. Cole Beasley, 7-75-0
5. John Brown, 5-69-0

That's it. Only four WRs have reached 70 yards against the Patriots in 11 games. FOUR!

You probably can’t afford to bench DeAndre Hopkins in this one (and those who own him will almost certainly laugh at the mere suggestion), but it’s best to keep expectations low. It would be a mild surprise to see him finish higher than a low-end WR1 in what could be his toughest matchup of the season.

Ryan McDowell examines the solid fantasy showing Green Bay’s other running back has had so far in 2019:

Jamaal Williams now has four RB1 games this season. That's the same number as Chris Carson and Mark Ingram. More than Mixon, Conner, Barkley, Gurley, etc. Williams quietly the RB22 for the year.

Aaron Jones will lament those points going to someone other than Aaron Jones, but can you really complain? Your guy is still the RB3 in 1/2 PPR formats. More significantly, the Packers’ 1-2 running back punch has taken some steam out of the passing game, with Aaron Rodgers entering Week 13 as the QB8.

Heath Cummings has some great news for those of you with any of the core four Cleveland Browns non-QB fantasy assets:

Target consolidation in Cleveland is a beautiful thing. Since Week 10:
Landry 29.7%
Beckham 29.7%
Hunt 19.8%
Chubb 8.9%

Almost 90% of team targets to their four best players. pic.twitter.com/yIo2Pa5Env

With the Cleveland offense finally rounding into form (thanks for showing up, Baker Mayfield), any of the quartet listed above could wind up being league winners.

We conclude the main event with a terrific stat from Scott Hanson, who suggests that the San Francisco D/ST might not be a great play in Week 13:

Per @NFLResearch : with @Lj_era8 at QB, the @Ravens have 21 straight drives without a punt.

Last Lamar led drive that ended in a punt: Week 9 vs Pats.
