Environment Design and Concept Sketches
Vikings: Adrian Peterson, Blair Walsh
Peterson remains a top-three fantasy player as we enter into the playoffs. The Ravens have only allowed a couple rushing touchdowns, so paying a heavy price for A.P. in weekly leagues might not be ideal. Walsh is averaging over 10 points per game in his last four outings.
• Ravens: Ray Rice, Torrey Smith, Justin Tucker, Ravens DST
While the Vikings gave up 120 rushing yards to Matt Forte, Rice and the Ravens' offense are nowhere near as threatening. Even so, Rice remains a threat on the ground and in the passing game. Torrey Smith will face a Vikings team that gave up a Bears franchise record for receiving yards to Alshon Jeffery in Week 13. Tucker has nine field goals in his past two games, and three 50-yarders in his past five. The Minnesota offense, outside of Peterson, is just not good. The Ravens defense is a very good fantasy start this week.

Sit 'em:
• Vikings: Christian Ponder, Matt Cassel, Toby Gerhart, Greg Jennings, Cordarelle Patterson, Jerome Simpson, Jarius Wright, John Carlson
Cassel wasn't horrible as Ponder's (concussion) replacement on Sunday, but the Bears defense is not what it once was. Patterson, coming off one of his best games of the season, was held to just one catch for four yards in Week 13. He's a rookie, however, and that means it'll be an up-and-down ride each week. Carlson has become a go-to receiver for the Vikings after he replaced TE Kyle Rudolph. He has 19 catches for 264 yards and a touchdown in his past four games, and he's a sleeper this week.
• Ravens: Joe Flacco, Bernard Pierce, Jacoby Jones, Marlon Brown, Dallas Clark, Dennis Pitta
Flacco should be a great start in weekly leagues, considering he should have a low salary once again, but not as much in traditional leagues. Pierce outrushed Rice in Week 13, but Rice saw more touches in the passing game. The
