2022 Week 14 Fantasy Football Sleepers
🚨 HEADS UP 🚨 These are sleepers. They is not going to mimic my rankings 100%. This is chasing upside and usually carries more threat.
QUARTERBACK
POSSIBLY START: Jared Goff, DET — Goff is coming off two good video games, which simply so occur to be at dwelling. Goff is best indoors, with 18 of his 19 touchdowns coming inside (9 video games). Last time he confronted the Vikings, Goff had 277-1-1 for 13.9 fantasy factors, and that was a highway recreation. Goff is well worth the threat at dwelling in a pleasant matchup and with all of his receivers wholesome… despite the fact that I really feel like I’m working into this error of a bet once more.
RUNNING BACK
POSSIBLY START: D’Onta Foreman, CAR — Foreman sounds able to go after getting dinged up earlier than the Panthers’ bye, and after posting 118, 118, 130 and 113 speeding yards, respectively, in his 4 video games with 15+ carries, there may be good cause for pleasure. The Seahawks can’t cease the run — bear in mind Josh Jacobs in Week 12? — and simply let Cam Akers put up a 17-60-2 speeding line. Foreman isn’t only a potential begin, he’s a must-start in Week 14. Chuba Hubbard is a deep flier play given this matchup in the event you’re needy.
HAIL MARY START: Raheem Mostert, MIA — Who is aware of what’s going on with Jeff Wilson and Mostert? Yes, the Dolphins fell behind rapidly final week, however that doesn’t utterly excuse eliminating Wilson from the sport. Nevertheless, we have now two causes each — however even more so Mostert — are in play this week. The Chargers are additionally extraordinarily susceptible to working backs, however their offense is powerful sufficient to maintain tempo with the Dolphins, and even shock with an early lead. If Week 13 is any indication, that may imply more Mostert, and a possible Top 20 end.
WIDE RECEIVER
POSSIBLY START: Zay Jones, JAX — Jones had fantasy outputs of 10.8 and 20.0 within the two weeks earlier than the Lions letdown. He nonetheless noticed seven targets final week, and the matchup with the Titans can assist Jones rebound. The Titans have given up the fourth-most receptions (170), second-most yards (2,308 yards) and most touchdowns (17) to wideouts this 12 months.
POSSIBLY START: Courtland Sutton or Jerry Jeudy, DEN — If Sutton can play, he’s in line for a stable recreation, and if not, Jeudy can step up for a Top 30 end of his personal. The Chiefs are Top 10 in permitting receptions and yards to wideouts, however the even larger attraction is that they’ve allowed the second-most touchdowns, which helps receivers have a startable week even with mediocre yardage.
HAIL MARY START: Van Jefferson, LAR — The Raiders are on faucet for the Rams, and whereas there may be almost nothing left to love on this workforce, Van Jefferson is a tremendous desperation play. He has a 19-11-136-2 receiving line prior to now 4 video games. Okay, sure, these yards are gross. However, this can be a landing hope (and prayer… and letter to Santa…), which might place Jefferson for 10 factors and a Top 30 end.
Oh, and with that GIF, be certain that to observe Violent Night!

TIGHT END
HAIL MARY START: Chigoziem Okonkwo, TEN — Make the “bless you” jokes, however Okonkwo has 10-7-103 mixed prior to now two video games, and, hey, that’s adequate for TE16 (#BanTEOnlySpots). Even whereas solely permitting 4 touchdowns to tight ends on the 12 months, the Jaguars nonetheless enable the Thirteenth-most FPPG to tight ends, and their APA is eighth greatest for Week 14.
Fun with Rankings!
Worst Christmas Songs
As talked about within the intro (however in case you skipped all that)… and in case you missed previous years… I’ve finished the Best Christmas Songs, Best Christmas Cookies, Best Christmas TV Episodes, and Best Christmas Movies, all of which you could find here (#CheckTheLink).

- Baby It’s Cold Outside — More about tricking somebody into staying over than something to do with Christmas.
- Santa Baby — Weirdly sexualized Christmas tune that additionally makes the girl sound like a gold digger? The 50s have been bizarre.
- Happy Christmas, War is Over — So, that is NOT Christmas. Sheesh. And the children on the finish might fill in for haunted hallway ambiance.
- That’s Christmas to Me — I don’t hate a cappella music, however this one is bizarre and doesn’t even really feel Christmas-y.

- Having a Wonderful Christmastime — Thank you once more, Ryan George, for mentioning the hilarious absurdity.

And don’t neglect the weirdness of Winter Wonderland and Frosty the Snowman, despite the fact that these are enjoyable.
- Almost made the worst minimize: Hark the Herald Angels Sing and First Noel — I don’t hate classics (The Christmas Song is my all-time favourite), and Hark may be as a result of I sang it yearly, endlessly, at school and performs as a child… plus, I watch Charlie Brown’s Christmas about twice a 12 months… however anyway, the boring ones don’t normally do it for me. Give me holly, jolly enjoyable!
