Kansas City Chiefs
Jeremy Maclin (Wide Receiver): The Raiders defense has only allowed 282.7 passing yards per game so Maclin's big return to fantasy relevance may come with a steep decline. The Raiders give up the 14th fewest fantasy points to wide receivers but with Maclin seeing 11 targets last week he has once again become the primary option in the Chiefs passing attack.
Charcandrick West/Spencer Ware (Running Back): West is looking to return from a hamstring injury so Ware could find himself on the bench. The Raiders give up 4.4 yards per carry and the 8th most points to running backs as we head into week 13. Both would be solid flex plays.
Travis Kelce (Tight End): Kelce has an excellent matchup this week as he faces a defense that is currently giving up the third most fantasy points to tight ends. Kelce has been somewhat inconsistent this year but he is still one of the best tight ends in the league. Kelce appeared to fight through a minor ankle injury in week 12 and is averaging around 7 targets per game.
Oakland Raiders
Amari Cooper/Michael Crabtree (Wide Receivers): The Chiefs have given up the 2nd most fantasy points to wide receivers and without Justin Houston rushing the quarterback Derek Carr could have plenty of time to find his receivers deep. Cooper saw 12 targets last week and Crabtree saw 8 so the opportunities are there. The Chiefs on average allow around 240 passing yards per game to opposing wide receivers.
Latavius Murray (Running Back): The Chiefs give up the 4th fewest fantasy points to running backs which means Murray could be in for another tough week. Murray has had to face a couple of tough run defenses in the past few weeks which has definitely hurt his fantasy value. The Chiefs only 95.9 rushing yards per game.
