Who Should I Start? Zach Charbonnet or Puka Nacua

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet has been a touchdown machine this season. He has a great chance to score in Week 14 against an Atlanta Falcons defense that is No. 24 against opposing running backs in fantasy. The Seahawks should be able to move the ball on Sunday. When this team finds itself close to the end zone, there is a good chance that Charbonnet is going to receive the ball. Charbonnet's eight touchdowns in 2025 already match his career high from a season ago. When he scores, he delivers flex value for fantasy football. With the Falcons deploying a weaker defense against opposing running backs, Charbonnet may even find running room outside of the red zone. If Charbonnet can turn in a relatively efficient game and find the end zone, you will be happy in fantasy. As usual, Charbonnet is a risky play. However, his touchdown upside in Week 14 is high if you need a starter.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues to play at a superstar level. Last week against the Carolina Panthers, he caught six of nine targets for 72 yards and made a jaw-dropping one-handed catch near the sideline. He now has 1,092 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns this year, ranking as the overall WR4 in PPR leagues. The 24-year-old has shown that he can co-exist with Davante Adams. Nacua has been the catch and yardage machine in this offense, while Adams is the touchdown threat. Both players are top fantasy receivers for Week 14, with RotoBaller's expert rankings listing Nacua as the WR6 and Adams as the WR7. The Rams are taking on an Arizona Cardinals defense that has allowed the 12th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, but Nacua has proven that he is matchup-proof and should be deployed as a high-end WR1 regardless of his opponent.
