We opened our DFS Game-by-Game Analysis article by explaining how offense might be the leading trend for Week 14, and that some of it may come from unexpected places. That carries through to this column, and it goes as far as having our two writers disagree on one particular game. Overall, there are some nice, sneaky plays for this weekend.
A Note from Mario: A sightly down week for the over-under picks, as they went 1-2. I will continue to provide them as I see fit, but please do your research and play responsibly.
In the world of daily fantasy roster construction, ‘stacking’ players from the same team can often lead to big results. In this column of games to target in Week 14, Luke and Mario will give their thoughts on a few games that are worth watching for fantasy purposes, and whether they like the value or feel the game is getting too much attention.
Luke’s Top Games to Watch
Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns
The AFC North has a history of producing ugly football games, and these two teams are the epitome of that at this stage of the season. In their last four games, the Ravens are averaging 15.25 points per game with a high mark of just 19 points in that span. While the scoring is a concern, the yardage is arguably a much bigger concern to me. This is a team that we are used to seeing churn out yards in bunches, but that hasn’t been the case recently. In their previous 4 games, this offense is averaging 308 yards of total offense without exceeding 326 yards in one game. That is a significant stretch of the season to be consistently struggling, and it is more than enough to keep me from investing at this time. The Browns offense hasn’t been much better as they are riding a nice three game offensive skid of their own, only saved by their bye week. In their last 3 games, the Browns are averaging a whopping 10 points while also averaging a mere 276 yards of offense per game. The offensive struggles for both teams are very real at this moment, and the fact that part of these current slumps includes a game against one another, I don’t see why I should have much faith in either offense suddenly clicking this week.
