However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/40139599\/nfl-bye-weeks-every-team-2024\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">there are six teams on bye<\/a>, making the quarterback position thin for this week. The quarterbacks on a bye are Lamar Jackson, Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, C.J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson, and Drake Maye. Below are the quarterback rankings, tiers, and analysis to help you navigate your lineup decisions for Week 14.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Quarterback Rankings for Week 14 Fantasy Football<\/h2>\n<h3>Tier 1: Superstar Quarterbacks<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Jalen Hurts<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Josh Allen<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Joe Burrow<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NFL\/status\/1862608772117512399\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">newly engaged Allen<\/a> put on a show on Sunday Night Football in the snow. He completed the triple crown by passing, rushing, and receiving a touchdown. His receiving touchdown was on a pass to Amari Cooper that Cooper pitched back to Allen. Allen finished as QB3 on the week despite only throwing 17 passes. Allen is a contender for the overall QB1 on the week every week and is in the top tier for Week 14 against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/rams\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Rams<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Burrow had his third straight game with 300 passing yards and his fourth straight game with three passing touchdowns. He finished with 19.26 fantasy points against a good <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/steelers\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Steelers<\/a> defense. Burrow gets a matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/cowboys\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Cowboys<\/a> defense, who are in the top five for most fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks this season. Fire up Burrow as a top-three quarterback this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tier 2: Mid to Low-End QB1s<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Baker Mayfield<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Justin Herbert<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Jordan Love<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Jared Goff<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. Patrick Mahomes<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9. Kyler Murray<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10. Russell Wilson<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mayfield struggled in the overtime victory over the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/panthers\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Panthers<\/a>. He threw for 235 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. He left the game for two plays with an injury but returned. Mayfield has a great matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/raiders\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Raiders<\/a>, who are in the top ten for most fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks. Expect Mayfield to bounce back this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wilson put on a show in the Week 13 victory over the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/bengals\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Bengals<\/a>. He threw for 414 yards and three touchdowns and finished as the QB4 on the week. This is Wilson\u2019s third top-ten weekly finish in his six starts. Even in a tougher matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/browns\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Browns<\/a> in Week 14, with six quarterbacks on bye, Wilson ranks in the top ten of the quarterback rankings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tier 3: High to Mid-Tier QB2s<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11. Tua Tagovailoa<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12. Sam Darnold<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">13. Brock Purdy<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">14. Cooper Rush<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tagovailoa had his third straight top-ten weekly finish. In the cold on Thanksgiving night, he completed 37 of 46 passes for 365 yards and two touchdown passes. The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/dolphins\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Dolphins<\/a> were down early, so they had to throw for most of the game, allowing Tagovailoa to accumulate fantasy points. Miami will host the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/jets\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Jets<\/a> next week, but they are not the elite defense they were supposed to be. Tagovailoa ranks as a high-end QB2 this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rush struggled in the Thanksgiving game, scoring only 11.8 fantasy points. He threw for under 200 yards and only one touchdown. Rush has a great matchup on Monday Night Football this week versus the Bengals. The Bengals have given up the third most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this year. In a week with six teams on bye, Rush will provide solid fantasy value.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tier 4: Streaming Options<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15. Geno Smith<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">16. Caleb Williams<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17. Matthew Stafford<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">18. Jameis Winston<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">19. Bryce Young<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">20. Will Levis<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Williams has had two great performances in a row, finishing as a top-five quarterback in each of the last two weeks. After not throwing a touchdown in four straight games, he has five total in the last two games. Williams has a tougher matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/49ers\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">49ers<\/a> next week but is a solid streaming option this week due to his hot streak.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Young had his career-high fantasy point day with 23.62 fantasy points in the overtime loss. He threw the ball 46 times and had 298 yards, one passing and one rushing touchdown. Young has finished as a top-20 quarterback in four of the last five weeks. He has been playing very well since returning from being benched. Young is a streaming option in Week 14.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Bryce Young his last 4 games<\/p>\n<p>858 Passing yards<br \/>5 TDs | 1 INT<\/p>\n<p>Stats don\u2019t even do him enough Justice.
