Start Em Sit Em<\/b> picks for Week 13<\/b> fantasy football take center stage this Thanksgiving holiday. Patrick Mahomes<\/b> is primed for a massive performance against an elite matchup, while several other players face tough defensive challenges. Expert consensus clearly identifies which players deserve spots in your lineups and which should hit the bench.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udd25 Quick Facts<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Patrick Mahomes<\/b> ranks as the top fantasy QB start in Week 13 with a projected 20.4 fantasy points<\/b> in PPR formats<\/li>\n
  • The Dallas Cowboys<\/b> have allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks, over 3 PPG more than any other team<\/li>\n
  • Kenneth Gainwell<\/b> and Khalil Shakir<\/b> are strong flex plays against benches that struggle defending their positions<\/li>\n
  • The Buffalo Bills<\/b> have allowed a league-high 14 rushing touchdowns<\/b> to running backs this season<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    Why Patrick Mahomes Sets Up for Monster Thanksgiving Performance<\/h2>\n

    Mahomes<\/b> endured a rough three-game stretch before Week 13. He tallied just one total touchdown against the Buffalo Bills<\/b>, Denver Broncos<\/b>, and Indianapolis Colts<\/b>. However, this Thanksgiving matchup represents a complete reset for his fantasy outlook. The Kansas City Chiefs<\/b> quarterback draws the most generous passing defense in the NFL this season.<\/p>\n

    Dallas<\/b> has proven historically one of the worst passing defenses in fantasy football history on Thanksgiving. The Cowboys<\/b> secondary has surrendered massive yardage and multiple touchdown passes throughout 2025. Mahomes<\/b> should operate in a high-volume, high-efficiency environment where he exploits weak coverage consistently. Experts project this as an expected high-scoring affair with Kansas City<\/b> likely leading most of the game.<\/p>\n

    Which Running Backs Deserve Starting Consideration<\/h2>\n

    Kenneth Gainwell<\/b> enters Week 13 with tremendous momentum. The Pittsburgh Steelers<\/b> running back averaged 113.5 rushing yards<\/b> over the last two weeks while scoring twice. He’s played over 50%<\/b> of Pittsburgh’s<\/b> offensive snaps in three straight games. Buffalo<\/b> allows the third-most rushing yards per game at 148.9 yards<\/b>, plus a league-worst 30.3 tackling grade<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    Devin Neal<\/b> stands out as a strong option if Alvin Kamara<\/b> remains sidelined. The rookie recently recorded 5 receptions<\/b> for 43 yards<\/b> against Atlanta<\/b>. Miami<\/b> has yielded the fourth-most rushing yards this season, creating ideal conditions for high-volume runs and pass-catching opportunities.<\/p>\n

    Wide Receiver Matchups Worth Exploiting This Week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Player<\/td>\nTeam<\/td>\nMatchup<\/td>\nStatus<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Khalil Shakir<\/b><\/td>\nBuffalo Bills<\/td>\nat Pittsburgh<\/td>\nSTART<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Xavier Worthy<\/b><\/td>\nKansas City Chiefs<\/td>\nat Dallas<\/td>\nSTART<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Stefon Diggs<\/b><\/td>\nBaltimore Ravens<\/td>\nvs New York Giants<\/td>\nSTART<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Deebo Samuel<\/b><\/td>\nSan Francisco<\/td>\nat Cleveland<\/td>\nSIT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

    Khalil Shakir<\/b> just recorded 8 catches<\/b> for 110 yards<\/b> against Houston<\/b>. He faces Pittsburgh<\/b>, which has allowed the most receiving yards to wide receivers in the NFL this season at 2,029 total yards<\/b>. Shakir<\/b> continues serving as Buffalo’s<\/b> top receiving threat with consistent target volume.<\/p>\n

    Xavier Worthy<\/b> scored four catches for 59 yards<\/b> recently and gets the Dallas<\/b> matchup. The Cowboys<\/b> defense allows the most fantasy points per game to receivers. Worthy’s<\/b> speed creates constant separation issues for Dallas’s<\/b> secondary, especially with Rashee Rice<\/b> drawing coverage attention.<\/p>\n

    Quarterbacks and Tight Ends to Avoid This Week<\/h2>\n

    Brock Purdy<\/b> suffered a brutal three-interception performance recently against Carolina<\/b>. He’s thrown multiple interceptions in three of his four games. Cleveland<\/b> ranks third in fewest fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks and features Myles Garrett’s<\/b> elite pass rush. The Browns<\/b> haven’t allowed many passing touchdowns, making Purdy<\/b> a risky bench candidate.<\/p>\n

    Jared Goff<\/b> faces a Green Bay<\/b> defense that allowed just one touchdown to him in their Week 1 meeting. The Packers<\/b> sit tied for seventh-fewest passing touchdowns allowed. Goff<\/b> profiles as a sit-and-wait option this week despite his normally strong fantasy floor.<\/p>\n

    How Should Fantasy Managers Navigate This Critical Thanksgiving Week?<\/h2>\n

    Week 13<\/b> represents a crucial decision point before the fantasy playoffs approach. All 32 NFL<\/b> teams play, eliminating bye week concerns and forcing difficult lineup choices. Mahomes<\/b> stands out singularly as the top priority quarterback, while running backs<\/b> facing weak run defenses gain significant value. Players trending downward against brick-wall defenses deserve immediate benching despite their name recognition and typical production levels.<\/p>\n

    \n“Patrick Mahomes should bounce back big time in an expected high-scoring affair on Thanksgiving against the Dallas Cowboys, who have bled fantasy points to opposing offenses all season long.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    \u2014 Michelle Magdziuk<\/b>, Pro Football Focus Fantasy Analyst<\/p>\n

    Exploit Tuesday morning waiver wire<\/b> opportunities before the bulk of Thursday’s<\/b> games. Stream defenses against struggling offenses or handcuff critical running backs. The holiday schedule compresses decision-making windows significantly, so fantasy managers must act decisively when studying updated injury reports and snap count trends Wednesday evening.<\/p>\n
