Aaron Rodgers has attempted 12 passes 20+ yards downfield over the first two weeks without a completion.

It's the most deep attempts in a two-game stretch without a completion since 2022.

The Packers are the first team on record (since 1941) to win a game with...

✅ Less than 200 total yards (199)
✅ 100+ penalty yards (133)
✅ Negative turnover margin (-1)

Entering today, teams in that spot were 0-44 🤯

In the Lamar Jackson era, the Ravens hae been the worse defense at getting stops in clutch situations

NFL Week 1 Deserved Margins

Our Expected Scores model which powers the Luck Rankings shows which teams got lucky/unlucky in final margin.

If the bar is below the diamond, the winning team got lucky to win by as much as they did.

Ex: Jets won by 13, deserved ~19

Darnell Washington gave Xavier Watts the NASTIEST stiff arm you’ll ever see.

The Steelers TE might be the SCARIEST we have at the position in the game 🤯🔥

Time to drop all the stats (via @FantasyPtsData) you need to know about from Week 1! Fantasy football is back, baby!

1. The Bears scored 59 points today after Ben Johnson promised to break the NFL scoring record.

But Kalif Raymond(!) led them with a 31.0% target share.

[Ryan Heath @RyanJ_Heath]

2. Caleb Williams had a career-high 10 rush attempts.

QBs to hit 10+ in a single game AND start 10+ games last year, and their FPG finishes:

Josh Allen - QB1
Drake Maye - QB2
Jalen Hurts - QB7
Patrick Mahomes - QB4
Jaxson Dart - QB14
Trevor Lawrence - QB6
Justin Herbert - QB10

Detroit Lions as 6+ point favorites after missing playoffs last year are 4-12 ATS in season openers over four years. With key safeties out and Jared Goff behind an O-line with three new starters, Saints +7 is noted as a best bet against Detroit.

["Thunder Dan" Palyo @ThunderDanDFS]

Some analysis to go with the data…

I’m focusing on the DFS main slate so skipping Dart and Dak.

Jalen Hurts leads the way against a Wash secondary that ranked 27th vs the pass last year.

While Barkley is the most likely cash game piece, Hurts-Smith-Goedert and even Wicks will be lightly rostered despite the great matchup and 25.5 implied total.

We haven’t seen new OC Sean Mannion’s new scheme in action, but Hurts and company will likely be better off than in Patullo’s unimaginative offense a year ago.
