Start: Mason Crosby, Green Bay Packers vs. Buffalo Bills

I’m not buying that the Buffalo Bills suddenly corrected all their problems. They had a good game against the Minnesota Vikings, but that doesn’t mean they turned any corner. Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers will look to put Buffalo back on the losing path.

Green Bay’s offensive attack as remained potent despite Aaron Rodgers dealing with a knee injury. This has provided Mason Crosby with plenty of kicking opportunities.

My one crazy theory is that a hobble Rodgers might be less effective in the red zone. This could lead to more field goal attempts.

Sit: Robbie Gould, San Francisco 49ers @ Los Angeles Chargers

My fantasy hate for everything San Francisco continues here with Robbie Gould. It’s hard to imagine a scenario where the 49ers are able to get a ton of scoring opportunities with C.J. Beathard at quarterback.

This wasn’t exactly the most explosive offensive in the league with Jimmy Garoppolo running the show.

Look for Kyle Shanahan to try and feature a ground-control offense. He can lean on Matt Breida and Alfred Morris to pound the ball. This would bring the game to a crawl which limits the overall scoring.
