Fantasy Football Week 13: QB Quandaries Abound

As Week 13 approaches, fantasy football quarterbacks present a mixed bag for managers. Patrick Mahomes has shown a recent dip in touchdowns, though his yardage remains respectable. Meanwhile, Lamar Jackson's ongoing injury concerns have led to a scoreless streak and limited rushing yardage, making him a less reliable fantasy asset despite his potential. The return of Joe Burrow, coupled with Ja'Marr Chase's availability, offers a significant boost for fantasy teams facing a high-scoring matchup.

Other notable quarterback situations include Jacoby Brissett continuing to perform well in place of Kyler Murray against a vulnerable Buccaneers defense. Conversely, players like Jordan Love and Caleb Williams face difficult matchups that could limit their fantasy upside. Quarterbacks such as Bo Nix and Jayden Daniels have favorable matchups, but Daniels may be sidelined, with Marcus Mariota stepping in against a tough Broncos defense.

Fantasy managers must navigate various scenarios, from Sam Darnold's front-running tendencies to Brock Purdy's matchup against a stout Browns defense. Daniel Jones is an uninspiring QB2 option, while C.J. Stroud's return from a concussion is anticipated, though his floor remains uncertain. Aaron Rodgers might offer a decent floor if he plays, and Teddy Bridgewater is an emergency-only option for the Buccaneers.
