NFL Week 15 action is here. Here are five recommended plays to help you win big in DraftKings GPP and cash game competitions. 

RB DERRICK HENRY, TENNESSEE TITANS ($8,000 ON DRAFTKINGS) @ LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

• Tennessee at Los Angeles offers a fantasy-friendly 46.5-point over/under.
• PFF’s OL/DL matchup chart gives Tennessee the second-best run-blocking matchup advantage (20.0%) on the week.
• PFF’s ownership projections place running back Derrick Henry’s (85.1 PFF rushing grade) 18.1% expected rostership rate as the second highest at the position. His $8,000 DraftKings salary is $500 less than this week’s running back maximum. 
• Henry is the go-to running back chalk play in cash games.
• Los Angeles’ fragile run defense will be without 2021 Pro Bowl safety Derwin James (76.9 PFF run-defense grade). 
• The table below ranks Los Angeles’ run-defense data in parentheses among NFL teams. “No. 1” represents the position, player or team’s best performance.

PFF Run-Defense Grade	Missed Tackles	Stops	Avg. Depth of Tackle	Negatively Graded Run-Def. Play %
34.6 (No. 30)	81 (No. 30)	162 (T-No. 23)	4.72 (No. 28)	69.3% (No. 31)

• The table below ranks James’ run-defense data in parentheses among 13 Los Angeles defenders with at least 100 run-defense snaps. 

PFF Run-Defense Grade	Tackles	Stops	Tackles for Loss or No Gain	Negatively Graded Run-Def. Play %
76.9 (No. 1)	32 (No. 2)	13	4 (T-No. 5)	5.7% (No. 5)

• The table below ranks Henry’s rushing data in parentheses among 39 NFL running backs with at least 100 rushing attempts.

PFF Rushing Grade	Yds/Carry	Missed Tackles Forced/Carry	YAC/Carry	10-Plus-Yd Rushing Plays
85.1 (No. 7)	4.3 (No. 20)	0.19 (T-No. 16)	3.7 (No. 4)	27 (No. 5)

• Henry’s 275 rush attempts lead the position by six, and his 1,016 rushing yards after contact lead by 12.
