The offensive line of the New York Giants is probably not what you want to use if you’re trying to make it to the fantasy playoffs in your league.
However, it can be difficult to know how to use Green Bay Packers players effectively. Even Jordan Love’s hot streak hasn’t always been enough to move his skill position players into fantasy starting lineups because of injuries and erratic play.
Love: The Giants’ 13th-place ranking in fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks this season is surprising. In the last two weeks, Love has over 23 fantasy points twice, and in the two weeks prior, he had above 18 points. In his last three games, he has eight touchdowns and 0 interceptions. He is a respectable choice while against the Giants.
Saquon Barkley: When it comes to fantasy points per game granted to running backs, the Packers are tied for 22nd place. Barkley has received at least three targets in each of his games this season, which has increased his rushing totals even though New England has limited him to just 6.20 PPR points.
Barkley has struggled to get separation from the tackles, but he can still score a couple huge runs each game to increase his yardage total. Against a team that gives up 4.9 receptions for 29.3 receiving yards per game to running backs, I’m not betting the over on his yards (whatever that may be). Instead, I’m backing him.
Packers’ defense: With Tommy DeVito in charge, the Giants‘ last three opponents scored 9, 9, and 14 fantasy points. During that period, DeVito has had 20 layoffs. The Packers’ defense is worth starting this week because of their stingy approach to stopping quarterbacks.
