Raybon’s Packers-Chiefs Sunday Night Football DFS Breakdown

Aaron-Rodgers

Here’s a breakdown of one-game DFS contests for the Week 8 Sunday Night Football matchup featuring the Green Bay Packers at Kansas City Chiefs at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC.

Cash Game Strategy

Aaron Rodgers has the top median projection in our DraftKings Showdown Models, but thanks to a 33% discount relative to Rodgers, it’s Matt Moore who has the top Projected Plus/Minus. By going with Moore instead of Rodgers in the Captain spot, you can squeeze in Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams, LeSean McCoy and Mason Crosby, whereas optimizing around Rodgers in the MVP slot results in losing out on 6-7 projected DK points.

On FanDuel, the optimal combination is Rodgers, Moore, Jones, McCoy and Damien Williams. The latter has seemingly taken a backseat to McCoy, but has still seen double-digit touches in all but one game.
