New York Jets Passing Offense

Has putting faith in New York sports franchises ever led to heartbreak? Most certainly not. So, why not toss the New York Jets into the mix, too?

Really, this has been a solid place to invest every week this year. As noted by Rotoworld's Rich Hribar, Eric Decker and Brandon Marshall are the only two wide receivers in football to have at least 10 point-per-reception points in every game in which they have played this season. Given that they'll face a Tennessee Titans defense that is trending in the wrong direction on Sunday, I wouldn't expect that to change in Week 14.

Early in the season, the Titans were faring relatively well against the pass while struggling against the run. Things have switched course of late as their rush defense is up to 13th in Adjusted Defensive Rushing NEP per play. After a thorough slashing at the hands of Blake Bortles last week, they've slid all the way to 28th in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play. Given their struggles against the run and the potential for positive game script in the Jets' favor, Chris Ivory is an intriguing option this week. However, given his recent usage since Bilal Powell's return, he's a bit of a risk. I don't feel that with the aerial attack.

You likely saw what Allen Robinson did to the Titans last week, logging 10 receptions for 153 yards and 3 touchdowns. That made him the the fifth wide receiver to top 100 yards against the Titans; four of those performances have come in the past three games. They've seen an additional four record more than 90 receiving yards.

Both of these guys have great floors, but I'd prefer Marshall if given the choice of only one. He has double-digit targets in each of his past four games and has averaged 11.67 targets per game over the past six. He'll cost you a bit more at $8,300 on FanDuel and $7,600 on DraftKings, but he has proved throughout the year that he is worth that price.

With all of this, I'm very much into Ryan Fitzpatrick, as well. He's currently seventh among quarterbacks in Total NEP, which could make him the first Jet to finish in the top 10 since Chad Pennington in 2006. This has provided him with a hefty floor in fantasy, as he has had at least 14.1 points on FanDuel in every game that he has finished. He has also shown a considerable ceiling, topping 25 points three times this year; Andy Dalton has only done so twice, while Carson Palmer, Aaron Rodgers, and Ben Roethlisberger are also at three times each.

Because of pricing, I'm very much more into Fitzmagic on DraftKings ($5,400) than FanDuel ($7,800). His pricing -- quite honestly -- makes no sense on DraftKings, given what he has done this year, and he would likely be in consideration for cash games at that price. On FanDuel, I think you can find players with equal potential at a lower price, but he's not completely out of the question there.
