Fantasy Football "Dark Horses": Week 14

By John Arias. ( One of 14 Maniaxs' writers)

It is that time again and the Fantasy Football playoffs are under the way. Let’s get right to it and these are the Dark Horses for Week 14...

Justin Fargas, RB, Oakland Raiders

He had a breakout game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. On 18 carries he had a respectable 82 yards and a touchdown. The Raiders will play against the Chargers, who allow over 108 yards on the ground and gave up 120 yards to Michael Turner. He is definitely a great flex play in Week 14.

Prediction: 19 carries for 103 yards and three receptions for 22 yards.

Sammy Morris, RB, New England Patriots

Morris finally scored last week against a tough Pittsburgh run defense and had the most carries among Patriots’ running backs. New England looks to bounce back when they travel to Seattle.

The Seahawks are 21st against the run and have allowed 11 touchdowns. Look for the Patriots to get back on track with Morris leading the way.

Prediction: 17 carries for 87 yards and a touchdown.

Eddie Royal, WR, Denver Broncos

After two very mediocre games, Royal was able to come up huge in week 13. He had five receptions for 84 yards and a touchdown. The Broncos have been an enigma all year and so has the play of Royal. Look for him to continue his success against the 24th rank pass defense in Kansas City.

Prediction: five receptions for 77 yards and a touchdown.
