Welcome to Week 17 of The Worksheet, a comprehensive fantasy football preview, by Rich Hribar.

What is The Worksheet from Rich Hribar?

The Worksheet is a comprehensive weekly fantasy football preview for each NFL game. Rich Hribar analyzes the matchup for every notable fantasy player for every game every week of the NFL season.

Happy Holidays!

We have worked through 16 weeks of the season and are approaching the final week for most fantasy leagues.

If you made your seasonal league championship, congratulations!

You survived the ultimate war of attrition this year.

Good luck in all of your championship matchups this week.

If injuries or misfortune have been working against you this season, there is still DFS action to get into and make the most of the remainder of the season.

This is a hectic week of NFL games.

We have two games on Wednesday, one on Thursday, three on Saturday, a nine-game slate on Sunday, and then a game on Monday night to close things out.

That orbits the holidays.

With a packed schedule and not enough time to do everything I typically can in a normal week, this article will be slightly different from previous weeks.

I will still be breaking down the players, but due to the time restrictions, I have to forego the team and matchup bullet points.

I am still digging into each player that matters for every game, but the games will stretch later into the week.

The goal is to have them all done before Thursday Night Football but stay posted if a game or two bleeds into Friday.

Next year should be back to “normal,” with Christmas getting pushed back to Thursday, but things are just wonky this season, and I apologize for any inconvenience.

Since the Christmas Day games will be played before all of the individual games are posted on the site, the weekly rankings are already live so you have a reference point for any start/sit dilemmas you may have on Wednesday or Thursday before all of the player writeups are done for the Sunday/Monday games.

This article will be updated throughout the week to reflect major news or injury implications.

I encourage you to use the game-by-game tables and data points here in conjunction with the player rankings that will be available every Wednesday. Enjoy the games!
