Green Bay Packers – Fantasy Forecast – Week 13
Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Eddie Lacy
#13 Ranked RB
Lacy scored 21fantasy points last week and was the 3rd highest scoring RB. Lacy touched the ball 25 times, ran for 110 yards and also scored a TD. This kid treats you well week in and week out and this week should be no different. The Lions have the 9th best rush attach in the league so it won’t be a cake walk, but Lacy is still a must start.
Jarrett Boykin, James Jones and Jordy Nelson
#24 Ranked WR, #37 Ranked WR and #8 Ranked WR
Here is the deal, you had two different QBs last week and no one is quite sure who Flynn, the starter for this week, will favor. Either way all of these guys should do well as the Lions give up the 2nd most points to WRs. This trio is good and there should be enough love to be spread around.
Gut Calls
Matt Flynn
#29 Ranked QB
Flynn came in and performed well last week. He brought his team back from a 23-7 deficit to a tie. He played well and threw for 218 yards – and he only played half of the game. Fantasy playoffs are right around the corner and no one is on bye this week so you should have better, less risky options. Stick to those.
Bench Warmers
Aaron Rodgers
Not Ranked QB
After being out since November 4th when he broke his collar bone, Rodgers returned to practice and feels like part of the team. While he feels like part of his team again, he should not be on your team quite yet. It is doubtful that he will be active for Thursday’s game so leave him on your bench. We know, we know…you are excited for him to come back. We are excited too, but save him for the playoffs.
Packers DEF
#28 Ranked DEF
So Stafford had a really rough week last week, but don’t expect him to repeat that. The Lions put up a lot of points which wrecks havoc on DEFs. Not a good idea.
