San Diego at Carolina

Panthers

QB Cam Newton: Newton’s MVP season is a distant memory, to the point where he was started in just 67 percent of NFL.com leagues last week in a game he was benched for the opening series. Can you really trust him to turn it around against San Diego?

RB Jonathan Stewart: Outside of a two-touchdown performance in Oakland, Stewart has underwhelmed since Week 9. A matchup with the Chargers defense might be just what he needs.

WR Kelvin Benjamin/Ted Ginn: Ginn has surprisingly offered more value than Benjamin, whose production has fallen off a cliff after an electric start to the year. Neither should be started this week.

TE Greg Olsen: Olsen has to get it going again at some point, right? Maybe it’s this week in a favorable matchup with the Chargers defense.

Chargers

QB Philip Rivers: Rivers is only a tick above Cam Newton in this week’s rankings, but he’s a volatile play, averaging just 16.54 fantasy points on the road.

RB Melvin Gordon: Gordon is an every-week starter, no matter the matchup. Only David Johnson and Ezekiel Elliott have more points at the RB position.

WR Tyrell Williams: Assuming he’s healthy, Williams is Philip Rivers’ No. 1 receiver, and he should have no trouble producing against a depleted Carolina secondary.

WR Dontrelle Inman/Travis Benjamin: Inman has posted double-digit fantasy points in each of the past two weeks. A healthier Benjamin is a dart throw in a good matchup.

TE Antonio Gates/Hunter Henry: Neither San Diego TE is producing consistently. Avoid the pair.
