Minnesota @ Jacksonville
Team Totals: Vikings 25.5, Jaguars 21.5
Among fantasy’s most consistent per-game quarterback producers, Sam Darnold visits the Jags having scored at least 17.3 standard-league points in six of his last seven starts. His weapons cast is now full with T.J. Hockenson back, while Jacksonville’s defense has been flamed for the NFL’s third-most yards per pass attempt (8.2) and a league-high 113.4 passer rating. I’m rolling with Darnold as a rock-solid QB1 play. … Over the Vikings’ last three games, Aaron Jones is averaging 21 touches for 97.7 yards and 0.3 touchdowns, while HC Kevin O’Connell has juggled No. 2 back duties between Ty Chandler and Cam Akers. (Akers was Minnesota’s clear RB2 last week.) Enemy backs have tagged the Jaguars for the NFL’s fifth-most fantasy points. … In the event of a Jones injury — his durability history is hardly clean — I still suspect the Vikings would roll with a near-even Chandler-Akers split.
