Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) Weekly: The NFL in Week 11
By Sean Eck
Quarterback
Derek Carr $6,400
Last week Carr led the offense with 300 passing yards on 21-of-30 passing with one touchdown and one interception for a quarterback rating of 99.3. This week Carr and the Raiders have to face the Patriots at Estadio Azteca. With the high scoring Patriots, the Raiders have an excellent opportunity to put up some fantastic numbers. Carr could be the primary beneficiary. Carr is looking to reach 300 yards passing for the fourth consecutive game. Carr is looking to toss three touchdowns for the 15th time in his career. I predict Carr goes off and throws for 350+ yards and four touchdowns this week!
Joe Flacco $4,900
Flacco has been a disappointment from a fantasy performance this season, but the Ravens are still only a game out of hitting .500 on the season and being in the thick of the playoff hunt. Flacco gets the Packers who as a team have not been the same this season since the Aaron Rogers injury. They are ranked 23rd in the league in opposing quarterback points against. They are also averaging 242.6 passing yards against per game. This could be the time for Flacco to turn his season around and if it happens, this is a prime week for it. Look for Flacco to throw for over 300 yards for the first time this week and his first three-touchdown game.
