FanDuel NFL 2021: Best lineup for Week 13

For Week 13’s Sunday NFL main slate contests, here’s a lineup to deploy on FanDuel.

Week 12 was a rough week for the FanDuel lineup in this space, after a good showing in Week 11. But back to the well this week, as fantasy managers who are all but done in their season-long leagues perhaps shift more focus to DFS in Week 13.

As always, I’ll be using this lineup myself in at least one contest. So I’m putting my money where my mouth is, for whatever that might be worth. Also as always, this lineup is for Sunday main slate contests on FanDuel.

Here’s my FanDuel lineup for Week 13.

FanDuel NFL: Best lineup for Week 13

Quarterback: Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers at Cincinnati Bengals-$8,200

After a bit of downturn for a few weeks. Herbert has thrown for more than 300 yards with multiple touchdowns through the air in in back-to-back weeks. He has topped 21 fantasy points in three of his last four games.

The Cincinnati Bengals have been tough on opposing quarterbacks from a fantasy points perspective this season (17.1 per game, FanDuel scoring). But they are also 25th in the league in passsing yards allowed 254.5 per game), and that fantasy stinginess comes from allowing just 14 passing touchdowns (a multi-way tie for second-fewest in the league).

A high-scoring game is coming in Cincinnati on Sunday. It’s a game to chase in DFS this week, and I’m starting with the Bolts’ signal caller.
