What the Experts are Saying
The Bears went with a run-heavy attack last week, which led to Robinson getting just five targets, though that was a 23.8 percent target share. Still, Robinson managed to post 83 yards, making it 11-of-14 games where he’s finished with 70-plus yards, which is impressive considering the struggles they’ve had at quarterback this year. Heading into Week 16, Robinson is the WR9 in PPR formats. This is a very similar matchup to last week, as the Vikings had allowed the second-most fantasy points per target to receivers, while the Jaguars allow the fourth-most points per target (1.98). The Jaguars have only been getting worse as the year’s gone on, as injuries have piled up. They’ve been without C.J. Henderson for the last six games, while missing Sidney Jones for much of that time as well. The starting cornerbacks last week were Greg Mabin and Chris Claybrooks, a duo that’s allowed 40-of-62 passing for 599 yards and nine touchdowns over the course of their careers. That’s nearly 10.0 yards per target and a touchdown every 6.9 targets. There have been 10 wide receivers who’ve finished with 20-plus PPR points against the Jaguars, highlighting the ceiling available to Robinson, who should be in lineups as a WR1. We also can’t forget the revenge game narrative, right?
