Week 13 is on course… and Fanpicks.com is on your side bringing you our advice for the best daily fantasy football picks and we

On Sunday, December 6 the Minnesota Vikings will host the Seattle Seahawks.  At the moment the Seahawks are showing some outstanding defensive stats… despite having given up 30 points in last week’s game with Arizona and 39 points during their game with the Steelers two weeks ago.  Those scores were given up, due in part, to the fact that the both the Cardinals and Steelers have strong quarterbacks both having an excellent healthy season and exceptional aerial attacks.  That not to say that while, Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater whose ranked 31st overall in the NFL for total passing yardage is not holding his own; but he will facing an exceptional Seattle secondary.  For that reason, Minnesota may find themselves hard pressed for putting high points against the Seahawks defensive wall.

Our recommendation is to play on Seattle Seahawks Defense

In other games the Pittsburgh Steelers will host the Indianapolis Colts.  This season the Pittsburgh offensive team is ranked 6th best in the league with an impressive passing game.  On the other hand, the Colts secondary have been struggling with opponent’s aerial attacks which has earned them a 27th overall ranking.  Given this, Big Ben should have a big game with an impressive passing yards and completions.

At the moment Antonio Brown has demonstrated that he has a good ability to have huge games against defensive teams who can’t defend against a strong passing game.  He has posted some impressive stats, leading his team with 85 receptions for a total of 1192 yard gains and five touchdowns.  He is currently averaging 14 yards per reception, his best record since his outstanding 2011-2012 season

The Kansas City Chiefs will play at Oakland Raiders, who in recent games has been showing weakness to defend against the ground attack.  On November 15th they allowed Adrian Preston to run over their defensive unit; even the Lions who have a weak running game were able to rush for 109 yards against the Chiefs defense two weeks ago.  Spencer Ware has stepped up to take over the Chiefs running game, gaining 114 yards on 19 carries and one touchdown against the Buffalo Bills

This season the San Francisco 49ers have been having serious difficulties during their road games, posting a 0-5 record and giving on average 35 points per game.  The 49ers pass defense is very poor as they allow 276 yards passing per game ranking 28th and fifth worst in the league. San Francisco is giving up 35 points per game on the road this season. The Bears are playing like an improved football team this year. They have a 5-6 record and very much in the race for an NFC Wildcard berth. Alshon Jeffery is healthy and coming off seven catches last week at the win against Green Bay on the road for 90 yards. He has had some big numbers against poor defensive teams like San Diego and Detroit so Jeffery looks for a big game on Sunday.
