Detroit @ Dallas
Team Totals: Cowboys 30, Lions 24
Not only is Lions-Cowboys monumental for the NFC playoff picture, it is easily Week 17’s highest-totaled game and should be leaned toward aggressively in fantasy lineup decisions. … NFC North champs for the first time in 30 years, Detroit is riding high offensively with 30 or more points in three of its last four games. Because Jahmyr Gibbs tends to play more when the Lions fall behind — and they are road dogs by nearly a touchdown here — Gibbs is a superior one-for-one play to David Montgomery. Yet both are legit RB1s against a Cowboys defense Bills and Dolphins RBs tormented for a combined 62/335/2 (5.4 YPC) rushing line in Weeks 15-16 and that probably won’t have lane-clogging NT Johnathan Hankins (ankle) again. … This game’s indoor setting and lofty scoring projection support environmentally-sensitive Jared Goff as a solid QB1. Dallas brings a dangerous pass rush, but the Lions’ offensive line is fully intact, and Goff’s weaponry is as healthy as it’s been all season. Goff has a 6:0 TD-to-INT ratio over the last two weeks.
Amon-Ra St. Brown is the quintessential solution for pass rush-heavy defenses because he wins early in the route and can be the centerpiece of a quick-game attack. The most consistent wide receiver in all of fantasy, St. Brown has 100+ yards and/or a touchdown in 13 of 14 games (93%).
