Michael Crabtree caught seven passes for 107 yards and two touchdowns in San Francisco's Week 15 win over the Patriots. Crabtree's 12 targets were eight more than anyone else on the 49ers. He was Colin Kaepernick's preferred target as the 49ers raced to a 31-3 lead early in the first quarter, and made a gutsy grab on his first score of the night, splitting two defensive backs as he fell into the end zone for a 27-yard touchdown. Crabtree's 38-yard score with 6:25 remaining helped seal a game the 49ers nearly coughed up, and provided him with his second two-TD night of the season. Although Crabtree still remains a glorified possession receiver, he's upped his production under Kaepernick, and now has 23 catches for 301 yards over his past three games. Although he'll likely have to deal with shutdown Seahawks CB Richard Sherman in Week 16, Crabtree will be a WR3 for the final week of the fantasy playoffs.
