The only way to appropriately describe my feelings for Sunday night’s contest between the Tennessee Titans and Green Bay Packers is the Anthony Anderson licking his lips and rubbing his hands behind a tree gif. The final Sunday night game of the 2020 season features two of the most efficient offenses in the league and a chance to watch two of the best pure runners tenderize their opponent’s defense.

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 3.5-point home favorites in a game with a 55.5-point game total. Green Bay has a 29.5-point team implied total, while Tennessee has an implied team total of 26 points.
