The New Orleans Saints have a lot on the line in Week 17. They head to Tampa Bay to face the Buccaneers for a chance at the NFC South division. Ted Ginn hopes to have another big week for the Saints Sunday. He is coming off his best game since Week 7. Ginn caught four passes for 76 yards and a touchdown and rushed two times for 14 yards in the Week 16 win over the Atlanta Falcons. It was a big turnaround from the two previous games. Ginn was held to two catches and 27 yards in Weeks 15 and 16.

Ginn had not scored a touchdown since he faced the Bucs in Week 9. He caught four passes for 59 yards in that contest as well. The 11-year deep threat has a great matchup versus the Bucs again Sunday. The Bucs give up the most receptions and yards to wide receivers in the NFL.
Fantasy impact: Ginn is a boom-or-bust receiver. He was booming versus Atlanta in Week 16. He should be able to continue that trend against one of the worst passing defenses in the league Sunday. Ginn is a risky start, however. He has enough upside to receive a flex start for the final game of the season.
