The Top QBs To Start in Week 14
Gardner Minshew II, Indianapolis Colts (at CIN)
Analysis by Jason Katz | There are a couple of viable QB streamers this week, which is good news (or as good as you can hope for) for those fantasy managers who lost Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence (or who have already been dealing with losing one of an inordinate number of starting quarterbacks that have gone down).
Gardner Minshew II is coming off his second-best game of the season. He threw for 312 yards and two touchdowns.

This week, Minshew gets a Cincinnati Bengals defense that just allowed 321 passing yards to Lawrence and backup QB C.J. Beathard. They allowed the latter to complete nine of 10 passes when he came in for Lawrence.
The Bengals allow the 10th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. With QB Jake Browning looking more than capable of running the offense, the Indianapolis Colts are unlikely to be able to rely purely on the run game and ball control, resulting in more volume for Minshew, which is good for fantasy.
Justin Fields, Chicago Bears (vs. DET)
Analysis by Derek Tate | Justin Fields may have failed to capitalize on multiple scoring opportunities in the red zone against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12, but 217 yards through the air and 59 yards on the ground show he’s still capable of producing as a legit dual-threat option under center.
After failing to register 12 carries in a game through the first six weeks of the season, Fields has topped that mark in two straight contests. His 30 carries for 163 yards since returning from a thumb injury look far more like his rushing totals from his breakout 2022 campaign.
Expect Fields to have another productive outing against a Lions defense that has struggled against opposing passing attacks over the last four games.
