Fantasy Football Week 14 Running Back Projections: Marshawn Lynch In Beast Mode

The playoffs are here, or very close, for fantasy owners. Let’s take a look at projections by position for Week 14.

Ray Rice gets the Colts defense this week, so he should be a big winner. With the Texans using the ground game to protect their quarterback issues, Arian Foster should also see plenty of action. But you already knew to play those guys. Who else might prove worthy in Week 14?

Our partner, numberfire.com, has provided us with projections for 30 top-rated running backs in Week 14. They determine their projections by feeding the stats and matchups into the computer, and the computer responds with its best estimate.

These projections are live and may change before Sunday’s action. Come back over the next few days until game time to see where your players stand.

Marshawn Lynch has a juicy matchup with the Rams defense. Chris Johnson owners must be rejoicing that he's finally putting up some fantasy points and the computer thinks that will continue this week. C.J. Spiller is a good flex play or emergency sub for Week 14.

* Fantasy Points Projections are based on the Yahoo! and ESPN default scoring settings. Quarterbacks are scored with 1 point for every 25 passing yards, and 4 points for every touchdown. For running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends, they are scored with 1 point for every 10 total yards, and 6 points for every touchdown. This is a non-PPR projection.
