Week 14 Offensive Sleepers

Sleepers at Quarterback

Cooper Rush, Dallas (vs Cincinnati)

Rush could be one of the best quarterback plays of the week if the Bengals defense doesn't improve from their Week 13 performance. Cincinnati has lost defensive leader Logan Wilson for the year, so it's not a given that they will be any better this week. Rush could have to pass more if Joe Burrow is successful against the opportunistic Dallas defense, and with Brandin Cooks back and KaVontae Turpin playing a larger role, the Cowboys have enough reliable and explosive options to keep the Bengals on their heels.

Mac Jones, Jacksonville (at Tennessee)

Jones was terrible in his first stint as the starting quarterback for the Jaguars, but in his second last week, he almost brought them back from 17 points down against the division-leading Texans. Jones had a good connection with Parker Washington and got the deep speed of Brian Thomas Jr. in play more than he did earlier in the season. The Titans defense is riddled with injuries and gave up numerous easy passing touchdowns to the Commanders last week.

Aidan O'Connell, Las Vegas (at Tampa Bay)

O'Connell had one of the best halves of the season last week against the Chiefs and all but brought the Raiders back from down 13 points to a victory on the road against the defending Super Bowl champs. He has a great connection with Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers, and the Tampa offense is good enough to force the Raiders offense out of their shell. O'Connell is a viable choice if you need a bye-coverage starting quarterback from a thin waiver wire.
