We’ve made it to Thursday Night Football for Week 12. With six teams on a bye this week, every game and every point matters for fantasy. We get a divisional battle here, albeit one that figures to be more than a little lopsided.

The visiting Steelers are 8-2, one of the best teams in the AFC, and fresh off a win over the Baltimore Ravens. The Cleveland Browns, meanwhile, sit at 2-8 and have faded from playoff consideration. In fact, they’re more likely in the race for the No. 1 overall pick. So, what does that mean for this game? It could mean a lot, or it could mean nothing as division matchups tend to be somewhat unpredictable.

For the Steelers, Russell Wilson is a QB2 that has some upside in a thin week. At running back, the Browns’ defense does a decent job against the run. Still, Najee Harris is an RB2, and Jaylen Warren is an RB3/Flex for me. In the passing game, I like George Pickens as a WR2 option. Mike Williams had a big touchdown catch in Week 10 and nothing in Week 11. I like him to be more involved, but he’s just a flex option for me. Pat Freiermuth is a TE2 for me this week.

For the Browns, Jameis Winston is a QB2 and a Superflex consideration, but I’m not optimistic about a big game. In the backfield, Nick Chubb and Jerome Ford are splitting the load. It’s not a great matchup. Chubb is the one I prefer the most, but he’s a low-end flex option for me. In the passing game, Cedric Tillman had been hot before last week, when Jerry Jeudy stepped up. Both of them are flex options for me, while David Njoku is a low-end TE1 option. Elijah Moore has some flex appeal, but I’m not expecting a big night from the Browns.

Now, on to the Week 12 picks.
