Happy Thanksgiving Week to all!!! We’ve got a nice full slate of games spread out over this holiday weekend, so we have many choices for who to play at QB in our fantasy leagues. The answers may not be as obvious as we would have thought when we drafted our teams a few months ago, as many top-tier quarterbacks have missed time this year with various injuries. There are high hopes that Joe Burrow will make his long-awaited return to the field for the Bengals in the Thanksgiving evening game against Baltimore. While I can’t wait to see how he does, I couldn’t quite put him in my top 10 quarterback rankings for this week.
He is a fine start if you aren’t a scaredy cat like I am, but I just feel like there will be some rust, and the fact that he’s missing Tee Higgins doesn’t help. Other players like Jaydin Daniels, Baker Mayfield, and Jaxson Dart are all trying to work their way back onto the field from various injuries as well. Will any of them make our top ten list for the week? Let’s take a look and find out.
Week 13 Quarterback Rankings
1) Josh Allen vs. Steelers

I know it just feels lazy to keep putting him at #1, but this matchup warrants it, despite what he looked like last week against Houston. Allen had his worst game of the season last week against the Texans’ top-ranked pass defense. This week, he gets the Steelers and their #31-ranked pass defense. The last time Allen had a game with under 15 fantasy points, he rebounded the next week with 23+. Leave him in your lineup and enjoy.
2) Jalen Hurts vs. Bears
Eagles vs Giants Picks

The Black Friday game features the Eagles and Bears, and I expect Philadelphia to put on a show in front of their home crowd after last week’s lackluster performance. The Bears are missing all of their linebackers, and Hurts will be set up to do damage both as a passer and as a runner. I expect him to score at least one rushing touchdown while adding another couple through the air to A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith. Eagles aren’t going to mess around in this game; they should win by multiple touchdowns.
