After struggling earlier in the year amid a 4-3 start, Newton has elevated his game and carried the Panthers to five wins in their last six games. He has scored eight touchdowns over his last four games.
Newton also ranks sixth in fantasy scoring among quarterbacks as the fantasy playoffs heat up. He’s not quite his MVP self, but he could be the MVP for your fantasy team en route to championship.
While Newton is coming off a so-so performance against the Vikings, expect him to rebound against a struggling Packers defense. This could turn into a shootout with Aaron Rodgers set to return for Green Bay.
Fantasy Advice: Newton is set to face a Green Bay team allowing the most fantasy points to quarterbacks over the last three weeks. If you have Newton, be sure to start him this week.
