Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 14 of his 24 pass attempts for 183 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 13 win over the New Orleans Saints. The veteran turned in his second-lowest yardage total of the season, but he still managed to turn in his third consecutive outing with at least 21 fantasy points. He has continued to play quite well lately, ranking as the overall fantasy QB7 from Week 8 through Week 13. Not only has he supported the Rams and his own fantasy value, but he has also boosted the value of the players around him, including Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, and Kyren Williams. Stafford is a top-18 fantasy option for Week 14 against the Bills while keeping Kupp, Nacua, and Williams in must-start territory.
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams toted the rock 15 times, rushing for 104 yards and a touchdown, in Sunday's 21-14 win over the New Orleans Saints. He added nine yards on his lone target. Los Angeles ran all over the Saints this afternoon, totaling 156 yards on their 29 carries (5.4 YPC). Curiously, Williams wasn't utilized until the tenth play of the Rams' second possession, whereas fellow running back Blake Corum actually garnered the team's first five backfield touches. The rookie was efficient in his own right (8/42) but not as good as Williams, who ran for 6.9 yards per carry -- picking up chunk gains of ten, 11 (twice), 14, and 17 yards. It was just the second time this season that the former fifth-round pick has eclipsed the century mark. He'll get a Buffalo Bills defense in Week 14 that's been vulnerable to opposing rush attacks in 2024, letting up the league's third-most yards per carry (4.9).
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (hand) had two catches for 49 yards in Sunday's win over the New Orleans Saints. Although two catches wouldn't mean anything to fantasy managers, one of them at least resulted in a trip to the end zone. Despite Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp healthy and available, Robinson has been involved, catching a touchdown in each of his last two appearances. He suffered a hand injury in this one, so his status for the Week 14 matchup with the visiting Bills is up in the air. But if Robinson can play, he deserves flex consideration based on his contributions of late.
Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen should not be started in any formats this weekend when he faces the New Orleans Saints. Since Week 9, Allen has surpassed the former No.1 tight end, Colby Parkinson, on the depth chart. However, while Allen has begun to see the majority of snap opportunities, he has not been able to produce consistently from a fantasy perspective. During this span, Allen caught just six passes and averaged a mere 2.5 PPR points per game. In addition, Allen has not caught a pass in each of his past two games and only saw one target during this span. With Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Demarcus Robinson, and Kyren Williams seeing most of the opportunities, Allen may only see a handful of targets each week. Facing a New Orleans defense that has allowed the 15th-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends, Allen should not be started in any formats.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson remains a risky flex option for three-WR formats heading into a Week 13 tilt against the New Orleans Saints. After catching just three passes during Weeks 10 and 11, Robinson enjoyed a nice bounce-back against the Philadelphia Eagles last weekend when he scored 9.5 PPR points. Even with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp dominating targets, Robinson has found opportunities to succeed, as he has averaged a solid 12.3 PPR points in each game since Week 8. However, he has fallen under double-digit PPR points on three occasions during this span. Facing a weak New Orleans secondary that has allowed the sixth-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season, Robinson could have a path to a solid fantasy output, even while operating as the No. 3 option on the team. Given his spot on the depth chart, fantasy managers should view him as a risky flex play in deeper three-WR formats.
