Fantasy football projections, Week 15: Texans vs. Colts featuring Andre Johnson, Ben Tate and Andrew Luck

We break down the Week 15 matchup between the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts.

Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

The Week 15 matchup between the Houston Texans and the Indianapolis Colts features two struggling teams. We've got all the fantasy projections for you courtesy of numberFire.

Houston Texans

Wide receiver Andre Johnson had 229 yards and three touchdowns the last time the Texans took on the Colts. He also went off against the Jacksonville Jaguars for 13 catches and 154 yards last week. Those two facts make it almost impossible for fantasy owners not to start him this week. The porous Colts secondary is still that, so Johnson should still dominate this week and is a must-start player given it's the postseason.

Johnson will look to team up with running back Ben Tate to help put a wrench in the Colts' plans to get ready for the playoffs. Tate suffered a bit of a letdown against the Jaguars last week rushing for just 53 yards. He has a single 100-yard rushing game on the season, so fantasy owners need to take his value with a grain of salt this week. He's the team's feature back the rest of the year, but not necessarily a shoe-in for meaningful fantasy production.

Indianapolis Colts

Things were going really well for the Colts in the first half of the season. They beat the Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos. In recent weeks, they've been rather inconsistent. Fortunately for Andrew Luck's fantasy owners, last week was a promising performance. He torched the Cincinnati Bengals for four touchdown passes and surpassed the 300-yard mark for the third time this season.

One receiver that benefited from Luck’s big day was Da’Rick Rogers. The undrafted rookie caught six passes for 107 yards and two touchdown passes in his first NFL game. In deeper leagues, Rogers is certainly worth a look. It remains to be seen if he can string together two straight big games and that might not be a risk fantasy owners are willing to take in the postseason. A dud performance from Rogers could see owners eliminated on a big gamble.
