It's Week 14 of the NFL season and this week might just be a must-win for your fantasy team with the playoffs approaching.

You simply can't afford to miss at the quarterback position and expect to win your weekly matchup. Three quarterbacks you may be considering on a week full of byes are Russell Wilson, Sam Darnold, and Will Levis.

Should fantasy managers play Wilson, Darnold, or Levis this week? What is their fantasy football outlook?

Should I Start Russell Wilson for Fantasy Football?

Russell Wilson was cooking last week as he led the Steelers to a victory over their division-rival Bengals. Wilson threw for over 400 yards and three touchdowns in what was his best game since joining the Steelers.

Since Russell Wilson took over, the Steelers rank:

6th in points per game (28.7)
T1st in completions of 20+ yards (30)
1st in yards/completion (13.2)
T2nd in yards/pass attempt (8.6)
T9th in EPA/drop back (TruMedia)

I think that's good 👍

He's not likely to repeat that performance this week, but he's in a good matchup again as the Steelers host the Browns. Wilson threw for 270 yards and a score against Cleveland two weeks ago in the snow and the Browns just gave up a huge day to Bo Nix last week. Wilson is startable in standard leagues as a low-end QB1.

Should I Start Sam Darnold for Fantasy Football?

Darnold's dream season continued last week as he tossed two more touchdowns in leading the Vikings to a comeback win against the Cardinals. He now has 23 passing touchdowns on the year, fifth most in the league and the Vikings are poised for a playoff appearance at 10-2.

QBs with a Passer Rating of 💯+ in double-digit games this season:

- Lamar Jackson (10)
- Sam Darnold (10)

Darnold should be started in all leagues this week as the Vikings will face the Falcons and their 23rd-ranked secondary. Atlanta has struggled to stop opposing passing games this year and Darnold has plenty of weapons to spread the ball around to. Fire him up in all formats as he's poised for another big performance.

Should I Start Will Levis for Fantasy Football?

It's Will Levis week, so the answer is an emphatic, "Yes!" While Levis was benched for Mason Rudolph earlier this season, he's looked much better of late and has made some big-time throws while racking up some very solid stats.

He is always a risk to throw it to the other team, but Levis's ability to scramble and extend plays gives him some major upside. He's beginning to play with some confidence and gets one of the best matchups in the league this week against the Jaguars and their secondary which ranks dead last in the NFL in pass defense.
