James Cook or Kyren Williams Week 14 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Fantasy football projections for RBs

James Cook from the Buffalo Bills and Kyren Williams from the Los Angeles Rams have been fantasy football stars since the start of the season. They have dominated their respective backfields, and now with the fantasy football playoffs starting, they are set to be difference-makers for your team.

The Bills and the Rams will play in Week 14, putting the two running backs against each other.

Is James Cook a good pick in Week 14?

Averaging 4.7 yards per carry is always a good thing, and the Buffalo Bills superstar is certainly making up for a strong part of the Bills' offense. He currently has 703 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns, while adding 195 more receiving yards through the air.

Coming from his second exhibition of the year with more than 100 rushing yards, Cook is set to have another great day against a Rams defense that is struggling badly without Aaron Donald through the middle.

Is Kyren Williams a good pick in Week 14?

The matchup isn't favorable, as the Rams will have to throw the ball a lot against the Buffalo Bills to keep up the score. He has 10 touchdowns this season, but his average is inferior than Cook, amassing 4.2 yards per carry. A good number, but below his opponent.

A saving grace could be the fact that, when he runs the ball, he'll be facing a defense that allows 4.9 yards per carry on average, the third-worst number in the league. Williams has 145 receiving yards and two touchdowns this season.

Our tool agrees with our view. Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer puts the Bills running back ahead of his counterpart in this matchup, especially as he sees Cook with a higher number of rushing yards.

Buffalo is a better team and has the probability of running up the score, which could result in a bigger number of carries for the running back. The Rams' running back is a good player, but in this specific matchup, he'll be inferior.
