Between bye weeks and injuries, several quarterbacks are on the shelf this week. However, there are backup options to target in the Week 14 Fantasy football QB rankings, including Browns veteran Joe Flacco. He threw for 254 yards and two touchdowns last week, putting up bigger numbers than many starters. Flacco, who is expected to start once again, will face a Jacksonville defense that has allowed the third-most Fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, making him an intriguing option when it comes to building a Week 14 Fantasy football strategy.

The playoffs are right around the corner in most leagues, making quality Fantasy football advice more important than ever. Which players should you include in your Week 14 Fantasy football picks? Before you lock in any Fantasy football picks, be sure to check out the Week 14 Fantasy football rankings from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

When it comes to ranking players, SportsLine's model beat human experts in Fantasy football for the past several seasons especially when there were big differences in ranking. Over the course of a season, that could literally be the difference between winning your league or going home emptyhanded.

Now, the model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, has revealed its Fantasy football rankings for Week 14 of the 2023 NFL season. Head to SportsLine now to see its Week 14 Fantasy football rankings.

Top Week 14 Fantasy football picks 

One player the model is high on this week: Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid. The rookie has emerged as one of the top targets for quarterback Josh Allen, catching 56 passes for 474 yards and two touchdowns. Kincaid has gone over 35 receiving yards in six straight games, including a career-high 81 yards at Cincinnati last month.

Teammate Dawson Knox could return from a wrist injury this weekend, but he has missed five straight games and might need time to regain his top form. Kincaid has tallied 31 receptions, 281 yards and two touchdowns over the last five games to make his case for a larger target share. The model thinks Kincaid is a great option again this week, listing him as a top-10 Fantasy tight end for Week 14.

Another massive shocker: Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year frontrunner and MVP candidate, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top 20 at his position. Stroud is the NFL's leading passer with 3,540 yards through 12 games and has also thrown for 20 touchdowns with only five interceptions.

However, he'll have a tough matchup this week against a strong Jets pass defense. New York ranks third in passing yards allowed and hasn't allowed a single quarterback this season to reach the 300-yard mark. The Jets have only allowed 14 passing touchdowns (ninth in the league) and with Houston favored by 6.5 points, game script might not work in Stroud's favor. For more start/sit Fantasy football advice, be sure to check out the rest of the Week 14 Fantasy football rankings.
