Week 13 is in the books. Hopefully everyone did well. Let’s dive into Week 14 and see where the value lies.

Week 14 offers some really interesting matchups. We will touch on and cross our fingers that they play out as they should. Here’s to a successful Week 14 and hopefully we can make some money along the way.

Andrew Luck, Indianapolis Colts, $5,900

Stats: 3,360 passing yards, 32 touchdowns

Andrew Luck and his Indianapolis Colts couldn’t find the end zone against a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that looked like it had risen from the dead. Luck and Co. couldn’t capitalize in the seldom mistakes the Jaguars did make Sunday. Coming into Week 13, the Colts were averaging nearly 30 points per game. Luck had an eight-game streak of three or more passing touchdowns and they were on a five-game winning streak.

Everything was looking up, especially with what should have been an easy win against a Jaguars team that hasn’t been able to get anything going for most of the season. The good news is we have four more weeks of football left and the Colts are still in the playoff hunt. At 6-6 you can count on these guys to show up and play during the fantasy football playoffs. These players will need to be sniffed out on DraftKings going forward.

Luck has a decent matchup in Week 14. The Colts travel to Houston to face the Texans in a AFC South rematch. We think Luck will bounce back as this game is a must win if the Colts want to keep their season alive. Luck is still second in the NFL in touchdown passes and third in completions and passing attempts. Houston’s defense is nothing to be scared of as they come into Week 14 as 18th-ranked against the pass. Look for Luck and the Colts to establish a better gameplan this Sunday.

Prediction: 285 passing yards, 2 touchdowns
