James caught 10 of 12 targets for 97 yards in Pittsburgh's 39-38 win over Baltimore on Sunday.
James had the best game of his career, exceeding his previous bests in receptions (six) and yards (49), although he failed to score for a fourth straight game. With just three touchdowns this season and just one since Week 1, it is hard to justify starting James in fantasy playoffs against a Patriots defense that had kept opposing tight ends out of the end zone for the past six games.
