Bryce McRae's Week 15 fantasy football matchups

By Bryce McRae

Here are the matchups I'm watching in Week 15....

Key Matchup	Reason
Michael Jenkins, WR, ATL vs. New York Jets secondary	Expect Darrelle Revis to shut down Roddy White; Tony Gonzalez will get his but Chris Redman could take a few shots at streaking Jenkins
Willis McGahee, RB, BAL vs. Chicago Bears front seven	We'll see a heavy dosage of the run this week; there should be snow on the ground and injuries to the o-line hurt the pass blocking
Steven Jackson, RB, STL vs. Houston Texans front seven	Brandon Gibson might be out - we'll see a ton of eight-man fronts to stop Jackson, who could be under the weather, too; Houston run D has improved, too
Santana Moss, WR, WAS vs. Terrell Thomas, CB, NYG	The Giants have had breakdowns in their pass D all year (see DeSean Jackson in Week 14); Jason Campbell has played his best three games recently
Vernon Davis, TE, SF vs. Philadelphia Eagles linebackers	Philly will place a rookie LB on him, who will try to jam Davis; still, Eagles don't have much else to worry about in SF passing game and can focus on VD
