Adam Thielen, Minnesota Vikings

Stats: 1,166 receiving yards, 9 touchdowns 

Adam Thielen is the best wide receiver in 2018. His averages are phenomenal despite bad quarterback play at times. Despite having Stefon Diggs and Kyle Rudolph alongside him in this offense. Thielen’s season has truly been a thing of beauty.

Through 12 games played he has averaged 11 targets, eight receptions, and 97 receiving yards per game. His receptions are first and his targets and yards are second-ranked among wide receivers this season. The Vikings won’t be sitting anyone as they are still fighting for that playoff spot and NFC North title.

Thielen is a great play this week. He will face a Seattle Seahawks defense that is 19th-ranked against the pass heading into Week 14. This entire Vikings offense should have a great bounce back game. The Seahawks are no longer a team to fear from a defensive standpoint. Thielen will find holes in their defense and make them pay for it.

Prediction: 100 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
