Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford probably won a lot of leagues for fantasy owners last week. He was fantasy's top quarterback with a monster Thanksgiving, passing for 337 yards, five touchdowns and adding 13 rushing yards against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 13: Matt Stafford looking to repeat Thanksgiving outing
Matt Stafford is coming in off a monster game. Do fantasy owners dial him up again for this week?


This week won't be quite as easy as far as the matchup goes when his Lions host the Green Bay Packers on Thursday. The Packers rank as the 16th-toughest matchup for fantasy quarterbacks, but they are a little worse when they're on the road this year.
Stafford does have most of his weapons healthy. Receiver Calvin Johnson is questionable to play, but he is almost certainly going to be in the lineup this week. Stafford also had a decent game in Green Bay in Week 10 with 242 yards and two scores.
Fantasy impact: He’s more of a low-end QB1 this week. If you have someone you usually start and have Stafford as a backup, you should probably bench Stafford and not chase that monster game from last week.
