As we move into the second half of the 2020 season, we are growing more confident with how each team plans to operate. This is always valuable for both daily fantasy lineups and over-under picks, as consistency — even if a team is consistently bad in one area — is key for projections.
A Note from Mario: There we go! A perfect 4-0 week! I will continue to provide these picks as I see fit, but please do your research and play responsibly.
In the world of daily fantasy roster construction, ‘stacking’ players from the same team can often lead to big results. In this column of games to target in Week 10, Luke and Mario will give their thoughts on a few games that are worth watching for fantasy purposes, and whether they like the value or feel the game is getting too much attention.
Luke’s Top Games to Watch
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers
After getting beaten up in Week 1 by the Saints, the Buccaneers turned around in Week 2 and took out their frustrations on the Panthers, beating them by two touchdowns. Fast forward to Week 10 and we have the Buccaneers coming to face the Panthers fresh off one of the most embarrassing games of the season for any team in the league. The Buccaneers’ offense has not been elite per se, but before last week’s 194 total yards of offense, they had surpassed the 300 yard mark of total offense in every game of the season. That is an impressive level of consistency that we absolutely love as fantasy players. We know it is almost a guarantee that they reach that number this week, and after that showing last week, we expect them to have one of their best games of the season against a very beatable Panthers defense. We are also expecting a bit of heavier usage from their running backs after setting an NFL record for the fewest rush attempts in a single game last week. The Panthers’ offense doesn’t exactly have a favorable matchup, but as the Saints showed last week, no defense is impenetrable. The Panthers’ offense has plenty of weapons, and has shown time and time again this year they are capable of moving the ball on the ground and through the air; look no further than them going toe-to-toe with the Chiefs last week. If you are feeling uncomfortable about the matchup, just know that the Panthers put up 427 yards of offense in Week 2 in this same matchup.
