On paper, the Packers-Lions game should have broken fantasy football. In reality, we had a 37-point slugfest where Christian Watson's 55 receiving yards led the team. This week, the Packers take on the Panthers, who lost by 30 points despite holding Baker Mayfield to seven completions. This season, the Panthers have been horrific against the run, allowing the most rushing yards per game (153). On the other hand, they have allowed the 6th most passing TDs, despite the sixth fewest passing yards. Golden has had an abundance of targets lately and only needs one play to make your fantasy week. He is a high-upside WR2 for me this week.

Matthew Golden underwhelming in loss Sunday

Matthew Golden caught 6-of-12 targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact

Golden was the most-targeted receiver for Green Bay on Sunday. He wasn't able to make the most out of those opportunities, however, catching just half of his targets and turning that into 39 scoreless yards against Detroit. This was a bit of a down game for him, but he should bounce back in the near future, especially if he continues to be targeted at this rate.
