Ezekiel Elliott was running like it was 2019 last week. The 28-year-old totaled 140 yards and a touchdown, including seven receptions for 72 yards, in a 21-18 win for the Patriots over the Steelers last week on Thursday Night Football. Elliott played 91% of snaps, more than any New England running back in a game this season with Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) out. Elliott was the top-scoring running back in Fantasy football last season, but can managers expect another standout week from Elliott when forming their Week 15 Fantasy football RB rankings?
The Patriots have the worst scoring offense in the NFL at 13 points per game this year, so what should Elliott's Week 15 Fantasy football projections be if you are in playoffs? Before you lock in your Fantasy football lineups, be sure to check out the Week 15 Fantasy football rankings from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

Top Week 15 Fantasy football QB rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 15 Fantasy football QB picks:
1. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: Allen is QB1 in total points and on a points-per-game basis in Fantasy football this season, and that's nothing new based on his history. He was QB1 in Fantasy football in 2020 and 2021 and QB2 last season being in such a pass-heavy offense and having the ability to run. He has a rushing touchdown in six of his last seven games with seven rushing scores over that span and 19 total touchdowns in his last seven games.
2. Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles: Even with a tough performance against Dallas last week, Hurts is QB2 in Fantasy football this year. His ability to run separates him from other top quarterbacks in Fantasy football and the Eagles will play the Seahawks, who are allowing the seventh-most rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks this season. Hurts has 12 rushing touchdowns, tied for second in the NFL, this year.
3. Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams: Stafford is quietly leading one of the best offenses in the NFL over the last few weeks. The Rams have scored at least 30 points in three straight games with Stafford throwing 10 touchdowns over that span. He'll face a Washington defense this week that's allowing the most points (30.4 points per game), passing yards per game (266.0) and the second-most Fantasy football points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season. Stafford should have all his playmakers in a dream matchup. See more top QBs here.
Top Week 15 Fantasy football RB rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 15 Fantasy football RB picks:
1. Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers: McCaffrey failed to reach the end zone for just the second time all season last week but his owners probably weren't too upset considering he rushed for 145 yards on only 16 carries in another comfortable victory. Now he'll match up with an Arizona defense he dominated to the tune of 177 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns in Week 4.
2. Kyren Williams, Los Angeles Rams: Williams also failed to reach the end zone last week but notched his fourth 100-yard rushing game against a good Ravens defense. He's scored 10 times in nine games this season and has averaged nearly 25 touches per game since returning from injured reserve three weeks ago.
3. Bijan Robinson, Atlanta Falcons: Robinson only carried the ball 10 times for 34 yards last week in a loss to the Bucs but he did score a touchdown and supplemented his stat line with five catches for 54 yards. In the last four weeks, the rookie has produced 396 scrimmage yards and score four touchdowns. See more top RBs here.
Top Week 15 Fantasy football WR rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 15 Fantasy football WR picks:
1. CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys: He is the highest-scoring receiver in Fantasy football over the last seven games in total points and on a points-per-game basis by a significant margin dating back to Week 8. Lamb is averaging 8.9 receptions for 111.1 yards with eight total touchdowns over his last seven games. Lamb has a touchdown in five straight games and has a near-unstoppable connection with Dak Prescott right now.
2. Tyreek Hill, Miami Dolphins: Hill leads the NFL in receiving yards (1,542 yards) and is averaging nearly 20 more yards per game than the next-highest receiver with 118.6 yards per contest. He is the No. 1 receiver in Fantasy football this season and had nine receptions for 102 yards and a touchdown against the Jets less than a month ago as the two teams meet again this week.
3. Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams: He is averaging 94.5 yards over his last two games to continue his monstrous rookie campaign. The Rams have scored at least 30 points in each of their last three games as Matthew Stafford has learned to get the most out of Nacua and Cooper Kupp on the field together. The Rams play the Commanders, who are allowing the most points (30.4 points per game) and passing yards per game (266.0) this season. Nacua has at least seven targets in all 13 games and will be highly featured again. See more top WRs here.
Top Week 15 Fantasy football TE rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 15 Fantasy football TE picks:
1. Travis Kelce: Kelce caught six of 10 targets for 83 yards in last Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Bills. The veteran tight end led Kansas City in receiving yards and he has topped 80 receiving yards in each of his last three games.
2. George Kittle: Kittle had three receptions on five targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-16 win over the Seahawks. He scored a 44-yard touchdown against Seattle and his strong outing brought him up to 811 receiving yards through 13 games.
3. Taysom Hill: Hill (foot/hand) was inactive for Sunday's game versus the Panthers but he's expected to be back in the lineup when the Saints play the New York Giants on Sunday. Hill remains a focal point in New Orleans' offense and he's recorded double-digit carries in two of his last four outings, providing plenty of opportunities to rack up Fantasy points. See more top TEs here.
Top Week 15 Fantasy football defense rankings
Here's a look at SportsLine's top three Week 15 Fantasy football D/ST picks:
1. Browns D/ST: The Browns are giving up just 263.0 yards per game this season, the fewest in the NFL. On Sunday, Cleveland will host the Chicago Bears, a team that's averaging only 186.2 passing yards per game.
2. 49ers D/ST: The 49ers have held their opponents to 19 points or less in each of their last five games. San Francisco's front seven is limiting opponents to just 78.3 rushing yards per game, which ranks first in the NFL.
3. Dolphins D/ST: The Dolphins are giving up 308.1 yards per game this season, but they get an advantageous matchup on Sunday. The Dolphins will square off against the Jets, who've scored 13 points or less in six of their last seven games. See more top D/ST here.
