San Diego Chargers – Fantasy Forecast – Week 13
San Diego Chargers vs Cincinnati Bengals
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Philip Rivers
#9 Ranked QB
Can you feel it, the sweet smell in the air of December for Philip Rivers? This man doesn’t lose in December. It is uncanny and he is getting warmed up for the month. He pulled out a big win last week under pressure and he is riding high. He scored 27 fantasy points last week and even though he will be up against a tough defense who gives up the 7th fewest points, he should be able to score in the 20s.
Keenan Allen
#20 Ranked WR
Rivers is getting hot which means so is one of his WRs and Allen is the best option on the team. Eddie Royal can get hot but he has been injury plagued so he is not the direction where you should look. The Bengals give up the 10th fewest points to WRs so Allen and Rivers will have their work cut out for them, but Rivers has that glisten in his eyes which means good things for the Chargers.
Gut Calls
Danny Woodhead
#28 Ranked RB
Woodhead is on the verge of “Must Start” status with Mathews probably out with his hamstring issue and considering Woodhead’s bounce back game last week. Scoring 18 fantasy points is certainty a way to come back. If you can overlook Week 11, you have a solid, solid flex option. The only other reason that he is not a “Must Start” is because the Bengals give up the 5th fewest points to RBs.
Bench Warmers
Chargers DEF
#24 Ranked DEF
Dalton has been throwing a lot of INTs recently but the Chargers Defense is not good enough to overcome his TDs that go along with INTs. Don’t start the Chargers; they will be in the single digits this week.
