Fantasy Football Week 13: Projecting the Top Scoring QBs

Week 13 of the NFL has it all.

Playoff dreams will be shattered. Fantasy postseason hopes will be obliterated. And the most important position on the field, quarterback, is going to have everything to do with it.

We need no real introduction for this.

Here are the top projected fantasy QBs of Week 13.

Tom Brady, New England Patriots

Doesn't get much easier than this. Tom Brady and the league's No. 2 passing offense take on the hapless Indianapolis Colts. The only reason the Colts don't give up more yards in the air is because teams dominate them on the ground.

The Patriots will run the ball with a bit of success, but Tom's going to throw for multiple touchdowns and more than 300 yards.

Indianapolis truthfully hasn't seen anything like the Pats offense all year.

Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers

Nothing has to be said here.

Rodgers is playing an uninspiring Giants defense that can't pressure the quarterback, sports three different rookie linebackers at times and has wasted talent in a secondary that consistently blows coverages.

He's easy for at least 300 yards and three touchdowns against this group if New York plays remotely close to the way they did on Monday night.

Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints

The hot streak will continue. Brees racked up five total scores against Big Blue on Monday and now faces a Detroit defense banged up with injuries from their drubbing by the Packers on Thanksgiving.

The suspension of Ndamukong Suh will be felt immediately, and Brees will pick apart this average secondary.

Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys

I don't trust Tony Romo with anything, but the Arizona Cardinals, although 3-1 in their last four, are still giving up 250 yards per game in the air.

Dallas is on a bit of hot streak right now (they haven't played anyone and have barely escaped with wins over Washington and Miami, so I won't give them any more credit) and Romo has thrown 10 touchdowns and only two picks in the four wins.

The Cowboys should find some success running the ball too, and that is why Romo is down on the list.

Honorable Mention

Eli Manning, New York Giants—New York has talent, and Eli has been playing great despite their losses. He'll have to throw the ball, whether to keep pace with Rodgers or chase him from behind.

Matthew Stafford, Detroit Lions—Like Eli, Stafford will likely see his team down early and be forced to keep pace with the high-scoring Saints. He doesn't look the same as he did in the beginning of the season, but New Orleans has nobody that can cover Megatron.
