Fantasy football waiver wire, Week 14: Shaun Hill has big game


The Rams quarterback threw for two touchdowns and ran for another. We break down the fantasy implications.


St. Louis Rams quarterback Shaun Hill led the team to a victory over the Denver Broncos in Week 11, but that was mainly using a conservative, don't-make-mistakes gameplan. On Sunday, he led the way to another win, and this time it was a dominant effort, as the Rams beat the Oakland Raiders, 52-0.


Hill only finished with 183 yards on 13-of-22 passing, but had two touchdown passes against no turnovers. He also added a touchdown run. That was good for 21 fantasy points, and the Rams added three more rushing touchdowns and an interception return for a score. The Rams are now 5-7 against the second-toughest strength of schedule in the league this season.


Fantasy impact: Hill still isn't likely to be a fantasy option, but the team has managed his situation well, and the weapons around him have performed well enough that he's a defensible option if things are desperate.


Ultimately, Hill probably needs to stay on the waiver wire. He had 21 fantasy points Sunday in the dreamiest matchup possible; it's hard to imagine he could reach that total again, let alone top it. He's a low-end QB2 going forward.
