Fantasy football: Players to start, sit for NFL Week 13

The Post’s Drew Loftis evaluates all the relevant fantasy football news ahead of Week 13 of the NFL season.

Big Weeks

Nick Foles QB, Jaguars, vs. Buccaneers (FanDuel $7,500/DraftKings $5,700)

Since Week 4, just twice have the Bucs held an opposing QB to few🦩er than three TDs — the struggling Falcons last week and Carolina’s Kyle All🔴en in Week 6. We get a glimpse of Super Foles this week.

Jared Goff QB, Rams, at Cardinals (FD $7,900/DK $6,000)

Arizona gives up 8.5 fantasy points more per week than the league average, worst in the league. The only QB who failed to reach at least 18 fantasy points since Week 4 is Daniel Jones. And the Rams have their full complement of WRs 💎back.

Ronald Jones RB, Buccaneers, at Jaguars (FD $6,200/DK $5,100)

The Jags have given up nearly 200 yards 🎀rushing🐼 per game over the past three weeks and an average of more than 37 fantasy points to opposing RBs. Jones has dominated the workload and has TDs in three of the past four games.

Greg Ward WR, Eagles, at Dolphins (FD $5,300/DK $4,100)

The rookie caught six of seven targets last week. Sunday, he faces a sorry Dolphins s🌱econdary on a team with a beat-up WR♏ corps.

Small Weaks

Leonard Fournette RB, Jaguars, vs. Buccaneers (FD $7,600/DK $7,500)

As bad as the Bucs’ passing defense is, that is how good the run defense is, ranking third-stingiest in the league to opposing fantasy RBs. They have given up just 𒉰one rus♏hing TD to an RB in the past five games.

Tevin Coleman RB, 49ers, at Ravens (FD $6,100/DK $5,900)

Baltimore score💛s so much, many opponents are forced to abando🍎n the run game. The Ravens shut down Todd Gurley last week, and their ranking as seventh stingiest would be even better were not for a Week 4 outlier when the Browns ran all over them.

Keenan Allen WR, Chargers, at Broncos (FD $6,800/DK $6,500)

Manag🏅ed just 18 yards on four catches in the team’s previous encounter. And let’s face it, Philip Rivers just isn’t the same effective QB he used to be.

Mark Andrews TE, Ravens, vs. 49ers (FD $6,500/DK $5,700)

San Francisco has been the most cruel in the leaꦐgue to opposing tight ends, allowing a double-digit fantasy outing by a tight end just once all season.
