Stacking in DFS contests has never looked more appealing than it does in Week 14.There are several high-end players taking on lower-end teams, and the strengths of these players just so happen to line up with the weakne ses of the teams they are facing. That means daily fantasy football players will have some easy choices in DraftKings and FanDuel lineups.It also means that they have to find some key lineup differentiation.By stacking certain games or matchups, you cannot only set yourself up for double points or correlated points, but you can also get those key differences. Some players like to spread the wealth and target several games, but if you target the potential highest-scoring games or go all-in on one matchup, that can give you a high ceiling. Granted, that sometimes comes with a low floor, but it's still worth it to explore your options in cash game and tournament lineups.WEEK 14 DFS LINEUPS: | | As mentioned, this week has some appetizing matchups both for individual players and teams. That said, there are also some nice, lower-end stacking options that could pan out in tournament play this week, as not many DFS players will want to use certain players or combinations of them in their lineups.DraftKings pricing continues to Jon Berti Jersey be more variable than that of FanDuel which makes it easier to create stacks. That said, stacking is still a viable strategy on FanDuel. It's just important to find worthwhile sleepers in the lower price range to balance your lineup.Below are some of our favorite sets of teammates for DraftKings and FanDuel lineups.

Yes, all of these players are the most expensive at their respective DraftKings positions, but it's for good reason. The Raiders' defense has had its share of struggles this season, and they had a particularly tough time in their last matchup against the Chiefs.Mahomes, Hill and Kelce all had ma sive performances on "Sunday Night Football" in Week 10 against the Raiders. To recap, they posted the following numbers:Patrick Mahomes: 406 pa sing yards, five TDsTyreek Hill: Seven catches, 83 yards, two TDsTravis Kelce: Eight catches, 119 yardsThose numbers were among the top-three DraftKings scoring performances each player has had this season, and Mahomes' outing was his best so far. Maybe the Chiefsdon't exactly repeat their succe s, but they should at least have a good chance to grab some TDs against the NFL's seventh-worst scoring defense.WEEK 14 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | RB Javonte Williams & Broncos D/ST, Broncos vs. Lions (DK/FD Stack)You could probably justify playing any Broncos players in this contest. The Lions are coming off their first win, and while they will likely play hard, they still are short on talent pretty much everywhere. The best way to attack them is by running the ball, as they've allowed the third-most fantasy points per game (FPPG) to RBs this season on both DraftKings and FanDuel. They are one of two teams to allow at least 18 total TDs to RBs and have allowed the second-most receiving TDs to the position at seven.Last Sunday, Williams got his first chance to serve as the primary back for the Broncos with Melvin Gordon out due to shoulder and hip injuries. The results Deven Marrero Jersey were strong, as Williams racked up 178 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 29 touches (six catches). Gordon's status for this week's game remains uncertain, but even if he plays, Williams will be a strong option, as he will get enough carries and targets to do damage against Detroit.The Broncos' defense seems like a good play here as well. After all, they limited the Chiefs to just 16 offensive points last week, as a Daniel Sorensen pick-six was responsible for six of the 22 Chiefs points. If Denver can do that against Kansas City, they can certainly slow down Jared Goff and the Lions.RB Alvin Kamara & Saints D/ST, Saints at Jets (DK/FD Stack)Remember how we said the Lions are one of two teams that has given up 18 or more TDs to RBs this year? Well, the Jets are the other. And they are much worse against the position than the Lions, allowing a whopping 22 total TDs to RBs this season. That includes 18 on the ground.If Alvin Kamara (knee) is back and healthy, he will certainly be worth trusting in this matchup. The Jets have allowed the third-most rushing yards to RBs this year and the second-most receiving yards, and that fits Kamara's dual-threat game to a tee. Add in that he'll either be playing with Taysom Hill, who is dealing with mallet finger, or one of Trevor Siemian or Ian Book at quarterback, this seems like a great spot for him to rack up check-down catches and handle a nearly full workload.If Kamara is out, Mark Ingram could have a similar impact, so you could roll with him instead. Both pair well with a Saints defense that should have no problem forcing Zach Wilson into some mistakes. Wilson led the Jets on three straight TD drives last week against the Eagles but still to sed a pick and was sacked twice. The Saints D/ST is much tougher than that of the Eagles, so Wilson could struggle.UPDATE:With Mark Ingram on the reserve/ Jose Fernandez Jersey COVID list, Tony Jones Jr. would likely handle most of the carries if both Kamara and Ingram are Jazz Chisholm Jersey out.WEEK 14 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | | Week 14 DraftKings, FanDuel Picks: Best stacks for daily fantasy football GPPs/tournamentsQB Baker Mayfield, WR Jarvis Landry, & WR Donovan Peoples-Jones, Browns vs. Ravens (DK/FD stack) There's nothing sexy about trusting Baker Mayfield while he deals with a plethora of injuries, including a torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder, but it may be sensible to do so in this matchup. It has everything to do with the Ravens' injuries.Baltimore is dealing with a banged-up secondary that just lost its best cornerback, Marlon Humphrey (pectoral) for the season. John Harbaugh said the team was at the end of the game against the Steelers,so that's not the greatest sign.Mayfield and the Browns have also had an extra week to heal because they were on bye in Week 13. They just played the Ravens in Week 12, so they have had plenty of time to self-scout and figure out ways to beat them. As such, Mayfield could be in for a good day, especially considering the now-porous nature of the Baltimore secondary.Pairing Mayfield with his top pa s-catching weapon, Jarvis Landry, seems like the way to go. Landry has averaged 7.6 targets per game in his past five outings, and while he's yet to find the end zone, he could in this matchup. Either way, he's a t
