Week 14 marks the beginning of the final push in the NFL regular season, where every matchup carries extra weight, and the quarterback landscape is ripe with opportunity. Juicy game totals, favorable defenses, and a handful of elite signal-callers in prime spots set the stage for explosive fantasy performances on both DraftKings and FanDuel. Whether you’re building cash-game anchors with high floors or hunting tournament-winning upside through leverage and differentiation, this week’s QB pool rewards sharp decision-making. Let’s dive into the top plays at quarterback, from the obvious high-end studs to the sneaky pivots that can help your lineups stand out from the crowd.

 

 

 

NFL DFS QB Top Tier Picks for NFL Week 14

Josh Allen, QB Buffalo Bills

Josh Allen remains a premier option in DFS. The Bills (8-4) are looking to solidify their playoff positioning, and Allen’s dual-threat ability gives him an unmatched ceiling. While his passing yardage was modest last week against Pittsburgh (123 yards), he salvaged his day with a touchdown and continues to be the engine of the offense. Facing a Bengals defense that has really struggled for the majority of this season.

Matthew Stafford, QB Los Angeles Rams

Stafford is having an MVP-caliber renaissance in 2025. Leading the Rams to a 9-3 record, Stafford has already thrown a staggering 32 touchdowns this season. He heads into Arizona fresh off a 243-yard, 2-touchdown performance against the Panthers. The Cardinals' defense has struggled all year, giving up points in bunches (allowing over 25 points per game on average). With the Rams' receiving corps fully healthy, expect Stafford to feast in what could be a high-scoring shootout in the desert.

Joe Burrow, QB Cincinnati Bengals

Burrow is back. After missing significant time this season, Burrow returned to form last week in a big 32-14 win over the Ravens, throwing for 261 yards and 2 touchdowns with zero turnovers. While the Bills' defense is formidable, Burrow’s price point likely hasn’t caught up to his elite production capability. In a game where Cincinnati (4-8) is fighting for pride and potential spoiler status, Burrow will likely be forced to throw to keep up with Josh Allen, offering excellent volume upside.

 

 


 

NFL DFS QB Mid-Tier Picks for NFL Week 14

Baker Mayfield, QB Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Mayfield has established a high floor this season, proving to be a reliable fantasy QB, and Week 14 presents an excellent spot for him at home against the Saints. The New Orleans defense has been vulnerable against efficient passing attacks, particularly struggling to generate consistent pressure on the road. Against a familiar divisional opponent, Mayfield is poised to deliver a strong performance. He has consistently converted in the red zone, giving him multi-touchdown upside.

Trevor Lawrence, QB Jacksonville Jaguars

Lawrence has the Jaguars sitting at 8-4 and is coming off an efficient 229-yard, 2-touchdown performance against the Titans. This Week 14 matchup against the Colts is pivotal for the AFC South race. The Colts' defense has been susceptible to the pass, and Lawrence has shown a willingness to push the ball downfield recently. With 16 touchdowns on the year, he offers a balanced floor and ceiling combination in the mid-tier range.

Jordan Love, QB Green Bay Packers

Love scorched the Lions on Thanksgiving for 234 yards and 4 touchdowns, bringing his season total to 19 TDs. The Packers are rolling, and Love is playing with extreme confidence. He faces a Bears team that is also playing well, but they still struggle defensively, and Love’s recent efficiency, highlighted by a 124.2 passer rating last week, makes him a fantastic tournament play in what should be a gritty NFC North battle.

 

 


 

NFL DFS QB Value Picks for NFL Week 14

Marcus Mariota, QB Washington Commanders

With Jayden Daniels nursing injuries, Marcus Mariota continues to start and provides the "Konami Code" rushing equity that DFS players covet. Despite a tough loss to Denver last week, Mariota was fantasy gold, throwing for 294 yards and 2 scores while adding 55 yards on the ground. Against a Vikings defense that can be exploited, Mariota’s ability to generate points with his legs makes him a top value play if he remains under center.

Tyrod Taylor, QB New York Jets

Taylor has stabilized the Jets' offense since taking over. He led New York to a 27-24 win over Atlanta last week, throwing for 172 yards and a touchdown while adding value with his legs. Facing the Dolphins, Taylor is a dirt-cheap option who won't lose you the week. He has 143 rushing yards in his limited action this season, providing a safe floor for those looking to spend up at WR and RB.

Tyler Shough, QB New Orleans Saints

Rookie quarterback Tyler Shough has taken the reins for the Saints. While the team is struggling, Shough has shown flashes, throwing for over 1,000 yards and 5 touchdowns in his partial season. He faces a Buccaneers defense that can be generous through the air. If you are building a "stars and scrubs" lineup, Shough is a viable punt play who will likely be forced to throw often if the Saints fall behind early.

 

 

 

NFL DFS QB Fades for NFL Week 14

Lamar Jackson, QB Baltimore Ravens

Lamar Jackson is an incredible talent, but Week 14 presents a brutal matchup. The Steelers have historically played Jackson very well, limiting his rushing lanes and forcing him into uncomfortable throws. Jackson is coming off a rough outing against Cincinnati, where he threw for 0 touchdowns and took 3 sacks in a 32-14 loss. In a gritty AFC North divisional game, and with his price tag likely remaining high, there is too much risk involved. We are fading Jackson this week in favor of Stafford or Allen.
