The fantasy football playoffs are here and every move becomes more important. Not to worry, there are plenty of good options both on the waiver wire and possibly your bench. Follow my rankings and advance to the next round.

Quarterbacks

Could Impress: Matthew Stafford. Despite the Lions tough loss to New Orleans on Sunday night, Stafford and the offense had an extremely good day. Minnesota allows more fantasy points to quarterbacks than any other team out there. You do the math.

Could Disappoint: Andy Dalton. The red haired signal caller might be a media darling, but he’s going to have a tough time against the league’s best defense on Sunday. Don’t give up on Dalton just yet, however, with his week 15 and 16 matchups among the best out there.

Injury Replacement: Joe Flacco. I wrote earlier in the season that no one had a better fantasy playoff stretch than Flacco and the Ravens. It all starts here against Indianapolis who has made a lot of subpar quarterbacks look like Aaron Rodgers.
