It all comes down to Monday night as we have the Philadelphia Eagles heading to Lambeau to take on the Green Bay Packers. There are some must starts in fantasy in tonight’s matchup, but who are we using for our Underdog picks? In a cold weather game in Wisconsin, we could see teams lean heavier on the run game, but don’t be surprised when they start airing it out.
Jordan Love HIGHER Than 236.5 Passing Yards
Jordan Love
Green Bay Packers • QB • #10
In only three of eight games so far, Jordan Love has thrown for under 200 yards. In games he throws over 200, they’re all over 250 yards through the air. 237 passing yards in tonight’s game against the Eagles should be an easy target as the Packers will need to work the ball through the air to stay on top in the NFC. My only concern is for the Eagles secondary, who look to be healthy for tonight’s game. I still expect Love to spread the ball out and get all of the receivers working on that offense.
Josh Jacobs HIGHER Than 0.5 Rush + Rec TDs
Josh Jacobs
Green Bay Packers • RB • #8
Did someone say cold weather game in Green Bay? This has Josh Jacobs written all over it tonight! Jacobs has only not scored in just one game this season, and that was a loss to the Cleveland Browns. In the last four weeks, he has scored a total of six touchdowns against Cincinnati, Arizona, Pittsburgh, and Carolina. Jacobs should find the end zone at some point tonight.
Dallas Goedert HIGHER Than 35.5 Receiving Yards
Dallas Goedert
Philadelphia Eagles • TE • #88
Truthfully, I am not sure who to trust in the receiving game for Philadelphia. A.J. Brown has been very hit or miss, Devonta Smith can be a tough person to rely on when it matters, and Saquon Barkley hasn’t been himself this season. Dallas Goedert has a low mark to hit, and if he can get to 36 receiving yards tonight, I call that a win. He’s only hit that mark three times this season, but the projections seem to be in his favor.
Jalen Hurts HIGHER Than 26.5 Pass Attempts
Jalen Hurts
Philadelphia Eagles • QB • #1
The projections for tonight’s game would tell you that Jalen Hurts should hit this mark, even though recent performances would suggest against that. With only 43 attempts over the last two weeks against Minnesota and New York, this seems like a worrisome pick. Coming out of the bye, I expect the Eagles to have worked out some things and continue the passing attack that we saw in weeks 5 and 6 when he threw for 33+ attempts in both of those games.
