Fantasy football sit-and-start advice should always be relative and league-dependent. Note that some players are targeted for DFS. Good luck with your Week 14 lineups!<\/em><\/p>\n

Start: Kirk Cousins, Jared Goff<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Cousins \u200b\u200bis having easily the least efficient (6.5 YPA) season of his career since he became a full-time starter in a truly bizarre Minnesota season when they’re somehow 10-2 despite a measly +10 point differential. The Vikings would be an NFL-worst 1-11 if every one-score game were flipped<\/a> this season.<\/p>\n

The Lions also have a fast-improving defense that ranks third against the pass in DVOA<\/a> over the last five weeks. However, this looks like a favorable setup that should force Cousins \u200b\u200bto throw a ton in a matchup indoors and with the highest total of the week (51.5 points).<\/p>\n

Detroit is averaging the second-most posted points (31.9) at home this season, where Goff has a 17:3 TD:INT ratio. Only the Bills have a higher implied team total than Detroit this week, when Goff is a fantasy must-start while facing a Vikings defense allowing the most YPA and passing yards this season. DJ Chark<\/strong> is also a sleeper this week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Start in DFS: Garrett Wilson ($22)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Site: Devin Singletary<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Wilson saw the third-most air yards in any NFL game this season last week and is getting an elite 2.5 yards per route run without<\/a> Zach Wilson<\/strong> this year, producing top-five WR fantasy production with<\/a> Joe Flacco<\/strong> and Mike White<\/strong>. Wilson will be busy this week against a Buffalo team that should put up points on offense but has allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this year.<\/p>\n

I dare you to draft Wilson higher than me next year.<\/p>\n

Singletary saw a season-low 44 percent of the snaps last week and five fewer opportunities than rookie James Cook<\/strong>, who may have surpassed him on Buffalo’s depth chart. Even if the carries remain divided equally, Cook is clearly the better receiving option<\/a>. Moreover, the Bills get a stingy Jets defense this week that’s allowed just one running back to reach 90 rushing yards in a game all season. Given their roles and difference in explosive ability, Cook looks like the superior fantasy start moving forward.<\/p>\n
