Case Keenum played his most efficient game of the season for the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15. He was nearly perfect, completing 20 passes on 23 attempts for 236 yards and two touchdowns in the blowout win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The fifth-year play caller also had one carry for 20 yards in the contest. Keenum could have had a bigger night, but with the game clearly in the bag, he was pulled early in the fourth quarter to give Teddy Bridgewater some time under center. He has at least 230 yards and multiple touchdowns in six of the last seven games.

Keenum has another favorable matchup ahead when the Vikings head to Green Bay to take on the Packers Saturday. In Week 6 versus the Packers, he threw for 239 yards, one touchdown, one interception, and rushed twice for 15 yards. The Packers have been generous to QBs lately, giving up two or more touchdowns to every quarterback they have faced since Week 12.
Fantasy impact: Keenum is on fire for the end of the season. Last week, owners took a hit when Keenum was pulled in the blowout. Saturday in Green Bay should be more competitive and Keenum will remain on the field the entire game. The Packers have been ripped by the last four QBs they have faced. Keenum should have no problem being the fifth QB on that list. He is a must-start in the playoff finals.
