Saturday Night DFS Single Game Breakdown: Panthers at Packers

The secret is out: The Green Bay Packers have the best quarterback and wide receiver combo this season. The secret that is not out? The Carolina Panthers have a better total offense than their opponent Saturday night.

It is vital to remember that single-game slates are not simply a “max salary, play as many big names as possible, and submit” format, especially in larger tournament fields. We need to identify players that can be pieces in their offense’s success, whether in the lead or trailing, as well as the players that could be focal points in a neutral game script. The ability to then take those players and identify which will succeed in the single game format will put us in a better position to succeed as daily fantasy players.

Remember that the captain spot is different on DraftKings than on FanDuel. The captain spot on DraftKings delivers fantasy points and prices multiplied by 1.5. The MVP spot on FanDuel will score at the same rate but without the increased pricing for the player slot. All flex positions score normally.

Vegas Total and Spread

The Packers are 8.5-point home favorites in a game with a 51-point total. Green Bay has a 29.75-point implied team total, while Carolina has an implied team total of 21.25 points.
