Week 14 Fantasy Rankings: Rating the 5 Worst QBs

In Week 14 of the NFL season, the following five are the worst fantasy quarterbacks for the weekend.

Tyler Palko, Chiefs

Palko has one touchdown pass and seven turnovers since taking over as the Chiefs' starting quarterback. If those stats weren't enough for inclusion on this list, than consider that the Jets have given up the third-least fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2011. This is a nightmare matchup for Palko and the Chiefs.

T.J. Yates, Texans

Yates missed a few throws but overall didn't look terrible in his first start in Houston. Still, this isn't a guy you're gushing over from a fantasy standpoint. Andre Johnson will be a game-time decision on Sunday and the Bengals pass defense ranks in the top half of the NFL.

Blaine Gabbert, Jaguars

Gabbert had arguably the best start of his young NFL career on Monday night as he threw for two scores against the San Diego Chargers. The cards are still stacked against Gabbert as a fantasy quarterback, however, and a start against the Buccaneers won't be enough to calm the overwhelming fears about Gabbert's game. Avoid at all costs. 

Tom Brandstater, Rams

The Rams are down to Brandstater, their third string quarterback, for the start on Monday night against the Seahawks. Third-string is enough to be mentioned on this list, but the Seahawks red-hot fantasy defense has a lot to do with it, too. 

Caleb Hanie, Bears

Let's run down the factors weighing against Hanie this week. First, he's thrown six interceptions in two starts. Second, he was sacked seven times last week against the Chiefs. And third, the Bears will be without Matt Forte. That trifecta is more than enough to think Hanie stinks up the joint again this week.
