Hopefully everyone paid attention to Defenses & Dragons

last week and slotted Kerryon Johnson into their fantasy lineups. The Lions
committed to the running game and it paid off Kenny Golladay Jersey , as Johnson accumulated almost as many carries as Matthew Stafford had pass attempts. This is quite an anomaly for the Detroit
offense and will probably not be the permanent situation going forward.Instead,
look for Stafford to throw the ball a little bit more this week against a
Seahawks defense that is much less intimidating than it once was. With a trio of
receivers—and maybe even a tight end?!—to choose from, the options are
plentiful. Look for Golden Tate to be the main beneficiary, however, as he
represents the Defenses & Dragons Player of the Week.FantasyPros Ranking:
WR16 (0.5 PPR)FanDuel Pricing: WR18 ($7100)Tate had a monster start to the
season, averaging 18.0 points per game through the first four weeks. In the two
game since then, the former Seahawk has tallied just nine catches for 78 yards
without reaching the end zone. On an offense with so many weapons, ups and downs
should be expected for all of the playmakers.This week, the Lions will face a
Seattle secondary that is decent against receivers, but definitely not shutdown.
Teams like Dallas, Arizona and Oakland had minimal luck with their minimal
assets Authentic Kerryon Johnson Jersey , but the Broncos, Rams and Bears were able to have good days from multiple pass catchers.The top point-getters against the
Seahawks this year are Emmanuel Sanders (19.5 points) and Cooper Kupp (15
points), receivers who are not too dissimilar from Tate. Possession receivers
who can catch the ball underneath and do damage with their feet are more likely
to find success than big play threats against Seattle, which fits perfectly into
the Lions’ plans.Most experts recognize this and are ranking Tate as a mid-WR2.
Do not be worried about Kenny Golladay or another day dominated by Johnson in
terms of his production. As Stafford regresses toward his normal pass volume,
Tate should be the one to reap the rewards. Even without any end zone targets to
date, he has still found a way to produce.Prediction: 9 receptions, 110 yards;
15.5 fantasy pointsMonday Night football open thread: Seattle Seahawks vs.
Chicago Bears Week 2 is almost over, and it could be done with any sooner. Three
NFC North teams have played thus far, and zero have picked up a win. Sure, the
Vikings and Packers didn’t lose either, but it wasn’t exactly a banner day for
either of those teams. I’m told the Detroit Lions also played on
Sunday Youth LeGarrette Blount Jersey , but I feel like those are just rumors at this point. I’ve yet to confirm.The Chicago Bears will close out the week by
hosting the Seattle Seahawks. The Bears looked improved in their opening week
loss to the Green Bay Packers... that is, before Aaron Rodgers laid them to
waste in devastating fashion. We’ll see if the Bears can rebound on Monday
night, because I’m guessing they don’t want to be in the same 0-2 hole that the
Lions are (reportedly) in. Here’s how to watch tonight’s game.TV ScheduleDate:
