Playoff fantasy football is a great way to keep the excitement of rooting for your individual players going. Many playoff formats give additional weight to players whose teams advance to the next round by doubling/tripling/etc. their point totals. But for our purposes, we're sticking to their projected performances for just this weekend's games.
Fantasy football rankings are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.
Rankings are compiled by FantasySharks.com.

Against the Titans in Week 11, Lamar Jackson only threw for 186 yards and one touchdown. However, he's been much better lately and is our top-ranked fantasy quarterback for the wild-card round. (Photo: Mitch Stringer, USA TODAY Sports)
