8. Matt Ryan

You’re playing a dangerous game with Matt Ryan this week. If Detroit
wins their game earlier in the day, the Falcons are locked into the sixth
seed, and have nothing to play for. If Ryan plays, he’s a compelling
start against a team that packed it in a couple months ago. Already the
worst run defense in the league, the Bucs have allowed multiple
passing touchdowns in every game since cornerback Aqib Talib went
on injured reserve. Ryan will almost certainly start the game, but how
much he’ll play is a total crapshoot.
