Before setting your Fantasy Football lineups for the NFL Playoffs, you need to see what SportsLine's advanced computer model has to say. When it comes to ranking players, the model beat human experts in Fantasy football last season when there were big differences in ranking. And the model was closest-to-the-hole overall, meaning it best pinpointed where every player would finish each week. The bottom line - the model has crushed the competition and now is giving you picks for post-season pools.
In Week 17, the model advised owners to bench Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, saying he'd finish outside the top 12 quarterbacks. The result: Cousins threw for just 132 yards -- his lowest total of the season. Anyone who benched him dodged a MAJOR bullet.
Now the model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, has revealed its latest Wild Card Weekend Fantasy football rankings.
