Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has a middle-of-the-road matchup this week against the Steelers and has a chance to extend his recent success.

Joe Flacco Questionable In Week 14

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) is listed as questionable for Week 14 against the Chiefs. Flacco hasn't played since Nov. 4 and was declining before that.

Matthew Stafford, Bruce Ellington Questionable

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back), wide receivers Bruce Ellington (back) and Brandon Powell (calf) and tight end Michael Roberts (shoulder) were all limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 14 against the Cardinals.

Ryan Tannehill A Low-End Option In Week 14

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is a poor option this week against the New England Patriots. Tannehill is coming off a three-touchdown game, however he only threw for 137 yards.

Cordy Glenn, Vontaze Burfict Ruled Out

Cincinnati Bengals left tackle Cordy Glenn (back), linebacker Vontaze Burfict (concussion) and cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick (ankle) have all been ruled out for Week 14 against the Chargers.

Mark Sanchez Obviously Not An Option Against Giants

Washington Redskins quarterback Mark Sanchez will make his first start since 2015 on Sunday against the Giants. In doing so he will become the third quarterback this season to captain a run-first offense battered by injuries and nearly devoid of reliable or consistent pass-catchers.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was not asked to do much in the team's dominant win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football.

Andrew Luck Ready to Rebound Against Houston

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck ended his streak of consecutive three-touchdown games in horrific fashion last week when the team played the Jacksonville Jaguars, with the Stanford product failing to throw a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 16 of the 2014 season.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will travel to Tampa Bay to take on a Buccaneers defense that is allowing the fourth most fantasy points to opposing passers this season.
