Power plays - week 12

Giants @ Lions

Goff to Gibbs or St. Brown


Jared Goff gets a textbook get-right spot at home in the dome against a Giants defense that is bottom tier.


Jahmyr Gibbs is operating as a true feature back, coming off a career‑high snap share and continued spike usage in the passing game under Dan Campbell’s direct play‑calling.  The Giants have allowed the league’s highest yards per carry and massive production to running backs, making Gibbs a top‑five RB with both rushing and receiving TD equity in this spot.


Amon‑Ra St. Brown is set up for a bounce‑back after his hyper‑inefficient 12‑target dud, staying the focal point of Detroit’s aerial attack with LaPorta on IR condensing targets.  New York has surrendered top‑five numbers in receptions and yardage to WRs and is thin at corner, which keeps St. Brown firmly in the elite WR1 conversation and an ideal stacking partner with Goff.


Jameson Williams is an attractive tournament pivot or add‑on as Campbell has been scheming him touches with dedicated drives, and his recent three‑week heater suggests legitimate spike‑week potential.  With Detroit carrying one of the slate’s highest implied totals and red‑zone efficiency far above the Giants, double stacks like Goff–Gibbs–St. Brown or Goff–St. Brown–Williams are fully justified in larger‑field DFS.



Jaguars @ Cardinals

Brissett to McBride and Wilson


Jacoby Brissett has not so quietly been a high‑end fantasy producer, averaging over 20 fantasy points per game with heavy volume and multiple TDs in each start, driven by comeback scripts and aggressive throwing.  While Jacksonville’s defense has strong underlying metrics in completion rate and yards per attempt allowed, market sentiment and projections still view Brissett viable and easy to pair with his main receivers.


Trey McBride is entrenched as an alpha tight end, averaging elite usage with back‑to‑back 100‑yard games and drawing one of the best TE matchups on the slate against Jacksonville.  Arizona funnels a large portion of its passing volume through McBride, making him a premium piece in any Brissett stack with a high floor for receptions.


Michael Wilson, fresh off a 15‑catch, 185‑yard explosion in Marvin Harrison Jr.’s absence, projects again as the primary perimeter receiver with No. 1 treatment.  Even if efficiency regresses, Wilson’s target share and Brissett’s willingness to pepper him downfield keep him in play at a friendly price.


Greg Dortch remains a viable secondary stacking piece as the slot option after a 6‑for‑66‑and‑1 line, particularly in builds anticipating another pass‑heavy script from Arizona.  Given the fragility and injuries in the Cardinals’ backfield, it is reasonable to project more of the offensive burden onto Brissett and his primary pass catchers, further boosting Brissett–McBride–Wilson correlation.
