NFL Week 13 Quarterback Rankings

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb, Cleveland Browns quarterback Brady Quinn, and Detroit Lions quarterback Daunte' Culpepper were benched in the middle of the game last week, Tennessee Titans quarterback Kerry Collins showed he’s human after all, and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning is still pretty damn good.

As the regular season in fantasy football winds down these next few weeks, you need to be concerned about either fighting to make the playoffs or earning that No. 1 seed in your league.

With some interesting matchups this week, be sure to pay attention to the Bruno Boys' Week 13 Quarterback Rankings. Happy Turkey Day!

-----------------

1. Brett Favre (New York Jets) vs. Denver

New York Jets quarterback Brett Favre just seems to get better and better as the season goes on. He had been careless with the ball earlier in the season, throwing almost as many interceptions as touchdowns but that hasn’t been the case recently.

In the last three games, including wins over the New England Patriots and Titans, Favre has five touchdowns and just one interception. Against the weak Denver Broncos defense, expect Favre to put it all together and have his best game since his six touchdown performance against Arizona earlier this year.

Point Projection: 24 points

-----------------

2. Philip Rivers (San Diego Chargers) vs. Atlanta

There’s something about San Diego Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers that makes him have multiple touchdown games nearly every time he’s on the field. One reason is that running back LaDainian Tomlinson is breaking long runs and isn’t used as much around the goal line because he’s still nursing a toe injury.

Regardless, Rivers should enjoy another good game this week against an Atlanta Falcons defense that’s 23rd against the pass.

Point Projection: 24 points

-----------------

3. Tony Romo (Dallas Cowboys) vs. Seattle

In one of the three games that we’ll be treated to on Thanksgiving, Dallas quarterback Tony Romo and the Cowboys take on the feeble Seattle Seahawks at home. Showing no ill effects from his thumb injury, Romo torched the San Francisco 49ers last week for 341 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions.

Seattle’s pass defense is worse than the 49ers’ and Terrell Owens is playing at a very high level right now so expect another good game this week.

Point Projection: 24 points

-----------------

4. Drew Brees (New Orleans Saints) @ Tampa Bay

Playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and their tough defense may scare some people off New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees this week, especially if they have a good backup or a better matchup.

But in the first week of the season, Brees handled the Buccaneers pretty well as he threw for 343 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. While it wouldn’t be realistic to expect a repeat performance, Brees will have a good game in this one.

Point Projection: 22 points

-----------------

5. Peyton Manning (Indianapolis Colts) @ Cleveland

As mentioned earlier, Manning has proved with his efforts in the last four games that despite injuries and inconsistent play from his receivers and offensive line that he’s still one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL.

The scary thing for opposing teams is that the Colts are getting healthier and better as the season goes on. That’s not good news this week for the Cleveland Browns as they rank 20th against the pass.

Point Projection: 21 points

-----------------

6.  Kurt Warner (Arizona Cardinals) @ Philadelphia

While the quarterback focus in this game will be mostly on McNabb, it will be Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner who will finish with the better fantasy stats even if his team doesn’t win the game.

The blitz-heavy Eagles defense won’t be a challenge for Warner because Arizona runs a similar system and thus it will be easy for Warner to practice and prepare this week. Expect a few turnovers from Warner but still a 300-yard passing day.

Point Projection: 20 points

-----------------

7. Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay Packers) vs. Carolina

It’s no coincidence that since Green Bay Packers quarterback has started to get healthier, he’s started playing better. It’s true that the Carolina Panthers rank in the top 10 in pass defense and points allowed but this game is being played in Green Bay where the weather will likely be more than frightful.

Team from the south typically do very poorly in Green Bay in the colder months so expect a solid game from Rodgers even against a tough defense.
Point Projection: 19 points
