Fantasy football is all about the matchups, especially when it comes to wide receivers versus corner backs. Remember when fantasy matchup analysis used to be “Team A gives up the most fantasy points to wide receivers”? Well, we’ve moved from analog to digital and now look at matchups on an individual level. Each week, I dig through the actually coverage tendencies for all 32 NFL teams and compile this information in the WR/CB Matchup Chart, which is released on Thursday mornings.

Week 11 matchup upgrades

Antonio Brown vs. Tennessee – Don’t worry about last week if you’re a Brown owner. He’s poised for a bit-time bounce back against the Titans. LeShaun Sims will be in primary on Brown. Sims has allowed 24 catches on 30 targets, with two going for touchdowns this season.

Doug Baldwin vs. Atlanta – The Seahawks’ passing game is surging like it tends to do at this time of year. Better yet, Baldwin draws an excellent matchup out of the slot this week. He’ll see primary coverage from Brian Poole, who has surrendered 42 catches. That’s the second-most among corners.
