It's always crucial for Fantasy Football managers to optimize their quarterback position. Quarterbacks are often the highest scoring NFL players during each fantasy season. This means they provide the greatest opportunities for massive fantasy point totals each week. Managers who get the most out of their quarterbacks have a higher chance of winning in Fantasy Football.
Week 13 of the 2022 Fantasy Football season features several quarterbacks in highly favorable situations and others who aren't. Direct weekly matchups combined with recent individual performances help fantasy managers make important decisions about which quarterbacks to target and others to avoid.
NFL Week 13 Fantasy Football Quarterbacks: Start 'Em
Jimmy Garoppolo - San Francisco 49ers vs. Miami Dolphins
Jimmy Garoppolo is a useful quarterback in Fantasy Football when playing in the right matchups. He has finished inside the top ten quarterbacks four times this year, including three since the San Francisco 49ers acquired Christian McCaffrey from the Carolina Panthers. He enters a favorable matchup in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins. They allow the third-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.
Trevor Lawrence - Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Detroit Lions
Trevor Lawrence ranks inside the top 12 quarterbacks in total fantasy points scored this year. He has also finished inside the top eight quarterbacks five times, including in each of his last two consecutive games. He has an excellent chance to keep his hot streak going against the Detroit Lions. They allow the most total points per game in the NFL and the most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.
Mike White - New York Jets vs. Minnesota Vikings
Mike White was excellent last week in his first start of the 2022 NFL season, replacing the struggling Zach Wilson. He completed 79 percent of his passes for 315 yards and three touchdowns, sparking the New York Jets offense. The Minnesota Vikings are one of only five teams allowing more than 20 fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks, making White a solid starter in Fantasy Football for Week 13.
NFL Week 13 Fantasy Football Quarterbacks: Sit 'Em
Matt Ryan - Indianapolis Colts vs. Dallas Cowboys
Matt Ryan has been disappointing during the 2022 Fantasy Football season. He averages fewer than 15 fantasy points per game this year with just 11 touchdowns and ten interceptions. Things won't get any easier in Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys. They have one of the best defenses in the NFL. They lead the league in total sacks, while allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks.
Kirk Cousins - Minnesota Vikings vs. New York Jets
Kirk Cousins has been fairly inconsistent during the 2022 Fantasy Football season. He threw three touchdown passes for the first time this year in Week 12 against the New England Patriots. He scored just one touchdown in the previous two weeks combined. He is better off avoided in Week 13 against the New York Jets and their top-five fantasy defense against quarterbacks.
Andy Dalton - New Orleans Saints vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Andy Dalton has been a streaming option at quarterback since taking over the starting job for Jameis Winston. He has finished inside the top ten fantasy quarterbacks twice this year, but has also finished outside the top 25 three times. This means he's only a realistic option in favorable matchups. Week 13 isn't one of them against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' top-ten fantasy defense.
