Let's get something clear from the start: Anyone playing daily fantasy football this week should have as many guys as possible in their lineup from the Lions-Saints game being played in New Orleans.
In Las Vegas, the game is the highest over-under total of the week (53.5 points). In DFS, the Saints are a fantasy points machine at home -- win, lose or draw. The Lions aren't in the Saints' category, but Detroit is heavy on the pass by necessity, and this week, the Lions draw New Orleans' mediocre defense and have the likelihood of a shootout with quarterback Drew Brees and Co.
Three other games to look at when mining players are: Kansas City at Atlanta, Buffalo at Oakland and Washington at Arizona.
