Set your Week 14 fantasy soccer lineups with these confidence picks from the Yahoo staff.
Tua Tagovailoa stays sizzling
Tua Tagovailoa is on fireplace, scoring no less than 24 fantasy factors in three straight video games, all top-10 finishes. Regardless of the staff struggling to truly win, Tagovailoa has thrived, averaging over 300 passing yards with 9 touchdowns and no interceptions throughout that stretch. Throughout draft season, this end-of-season stretch was a significant concern for me however all of Miami’s defensive opponents shifting ahead are weak to quantity performances.
This week, he will get an inconsistent Jets protection that’s struggled since Robert Saleh’s firing, and Sauce Gardner is coping with a hamstring harm. With De’Von Achane rising because the Dolphins’ most dependable receiving choice, Tagovailoa is in a really perfect spot to ship one other elite efficiency. — Tera Roberts
Chase Brown … the general RB1?
Chase Brown has averaged a whopping 123.5 scrimmage yards per sport over his final 4 whereas reaching the tip zone 3 times. You’d higher consider he’s about to ship no less than 120 and a landing on Monday evening towards Dallas.
We’ve been selecting on the Cowboys’ protection all 12 months in fantasy as a result of they haven’t but stopped anybody’s run sport. Dallas ranks next-to-last in dashing yards allowed (147.6 YPG) and dead-last in dashing TDs (21). It’s a present of a matchup for Brown, who’s emerged because the unequalled lead again for Cincinnati. An general RB1 end may be very a lot inside his vary of outcomes this week. Brown has hauled in 22 catches over his final 4 video games, so he’s just about impervious to sport circulation. — Andy Behrens

Two sleeper TEs to think about
Tight finish is at all times a fantasy problem and the pool obtained thinner when Taysom Hill and Dallas Goedert had been harm final week. Reinforcements are prepared for you within the Chargers-Chiefs sport.
Will Dissly is the second-most trusted LAC go goal and he’s up towards a Kansas Metropolis protection that’s been ripped down the seam all 12 months. And Noah Grey has sleeper chops on the opposite facet, with 12 catches and 4 touchdowns over three video games — Andy Reid has steered right into a two-TE offense, partly as a result of his receiver room has not been constant. Each Dissly and Grey are prone to outkick their Week 14 projections. — Scott Pianowski
Isaac Guerendo is a must-start
Isaac Guerendo all of the sudden went from waiver wires to must-start this week after Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason went down with season-ending accidents. Guerendo has averaged the fourth-most YPC (5.9) this season and has contemporary legs. The rookie must work on his imaginative and prescient and is much from an entire again, however whereas Mason is likely to be the league’s slowest RB, Guerendo is likely to be the quickest (giving him extra fantasy upside).
The Bears have yielded the second fewest fantasy factors to quarterbacks this season, however Chicago has ceded the fifth-most schedule-adjusted fantasy factors to RBs during the last 5 video games. The 49ers’ offense isn’t the identical with out Trent Williams and a banged-up Brock Purdy, however San Francisco owns a wholesome implied staff complete (24.5 factors) and will have a good game-script as four-point favorites. Patrick Taylor may even see work, however Guerendo is a top-10 again this week. — Dalton Del Don
Do not surrender on Tyrone Tracy Jr. simply but
Tyrone Tracy Jr. could have annoyed the coaches within the constructing with three fumbles between Weeks 10 and 12. If he did, it wasn’t mirrored in his taking part in time. The rookie performed 73% of the snaps on Thanksgiving and registered his highest route participation in a sport with Devin Singletary lively.
Clearly, the 2024 season is all however over for New York, and the long run is what issues. Seeing what you may have in Tracy and dealing by means of any errors is the one factor that is sensible. I count on him to stay the RB1 of this backfield. He attracts a matchup in Week 14 with a Saints staff that ranks twenty eighth in dashing EPA allowed since Week 8. This tasks as the kind of aggressive affair during which the run ought to be in play for many of the outing. — Matt Harmon
Fireplace up Rico Dowdle
Rico Dowdle is lastly getting the workload coach Mike McCarthy has teased at occasions this season. Over the previous two video games, Dowdle is averaging 23 touches and 110 complete yards per sport. That is by far the most effective utilization of his profession and it doesn’t look like going away anytime quickly. Dowdle produced 4 explosive runs of 10+ yards in Week 13 towards the Giants and he was a giant motive why the Cowboys had been capable of safe their fifth win of the season.
This week, Dowdle finds himself in one other strong matchup towards the Bengals, who’ve struggled to defend the run persistently this 12 months. Final week, Najee Harris totaled 129 yards and a landing towards Cincinnati. Dowdle seems to be in line for an additional sturdy exhibiting and with six groups on bye in Week 14, he’s a top-15 choice on the place and a should begin RB. — Sal Vetri
