I received’t beat across the bush, Week 4 was my worst week of kicker recommendation this season. I’m going to tear the bandaid off this recap. Matt Prater was my favourite begin of the week however the Arizona offense couldn’t get going in opposition to a red-hot Washington group. He completed the week with two factors, tied for the least in Week 4. Dustin Hopkins and Blake Grupe have been common to unhealthy in Week 4, ending with six and 7 factors, respectively.
In the meantime, two of my fades, Matt Homosexual and Jason Sanders, completed the week above common with 9 factors. Cameron Dicker completed with solely six factors, so I assume that’s a win. I don’t actually even wish to rely it, although. Appears like I need to get zeros throughout the board for that Week 4 efficiency.
That’s sufficient dwelling on the previous. Byes begin this week, there’s no different possibility than to be higher. This week we’ve obtained Jake Elliott, Jake Bates, Nick Folks, and Cameron Dicker on bye. So who’re we streaming?
Streams
Wil Lutz – Denver Broncos (3% rostered)
Denver hosts divisional rival Las Vegas on this Sunday afternoon recreation. The Broncos are favorites, however their implied level whole is just 19.5. Even so, Wil Lutz has tried two or extra area targets in each matchup this season. The Raiders have the bottom implied whole on the week, at 17. If the Broncos can get any factors early, and their protection can maintain Gardner Minshew and firm at bay, Sean Payton can lean on his kicker to clinch this divisional recreation.
Cam Little – Jacksonville Jaguars (2% rostered)
There’s no constructive mild to spin it in, Jacksonville has been disappointing this season. They’re the one 0-4 group left within the league. Trevor Lawrence nonetheless hasn’t proven the generational expertise we have been promised he had. That being stated, they have been capable of string collectively some offense in Week 4 in opposition to Houston.
Heading into Week 5, the Jags have a top-5 implied level whole. Rookie Cam Little has tried a number of area targets in two of their 4 earlier contests. He’s hit two 50-plus yarders this season and the Jaguars are the house favorites in opposition to the Colts.
Chase McLaughlin – Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5% rostered)
The other of Jacksonville in each approach, Tampa Bay and Baker Mayfield have been a pleasing shock this season. Exterior of the Week 3 blunder in opposition to the Denver Broncos protection, the Bucs offense has been rolling. Chase McLaughlin has tried a number of area targets in all three of the Bucs wins. He’s additionally hit one from 50 yards in all three of these wins. They aren’t favorites in opposition to Atlanta in Week 5, however the unfold is just one.5 and the sport is indoors.
Fades
Greg Zuerlein – New York Jets
The Jets head to Minnesota this week to tackle the 4-0 Vikings. Minnesota has allowed the fewest factors to the kicker place. Brian Flores has that protection enjoying possessed. Aaron Rodgers popped up on the damage report after that defensive battle in opposition to Denver in Week 4. I don’t assume it is going to matter if it’s Rodgers or Tyrod Taylor, I don’t anticipate a giant output from Greg Zuerlein this week.
Zuerlein hasn’t hit a area purpose of fifty yards or longer this season and his solely try from that distance was a miss.
Daniel Carlson – Las Vegas Raiders
I discussed that Las Vegas has the bottom implied level whole on the week. Denver’s been enjoying absolute lockdown protection. Plus, there’s a very good likelihood the vibes are off in Las Vegas with Davante Adams requesting a dealer earlier this week.
Will Reichard – Minnesota Vikings
Will Reichard has been an extra shiny spot for the Vikings this season. Any Minnesota fan will inform you they’ve been by their fair proportion of kickers over time. The rookie is ideal on the season. However the Jets haven’t allowed greater than six factors to a kicker since Week 1.
We’ve hit the a part of the season you need to actually lock in, you’ll be able to sink or swim by streaming throughout bye weeks. Let’s swim.
