Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta Falcons

FanDuel Price: $8,500

Projected Points: 22.2

Ryan is coming off of his worst game of the season, but as I mentioned, our projections expect him to get back on track in Week 8.

Last week was just the second time this season Ryan has been held to one touchdown pass. His opponent this week, the Green Bay Packers, have already allowed two opposing quarterbacks to throw three touchdown passes in a game. Excluding Matt Barkley, Green Bay has only intercepted three passes all season.

The Packers will also be playing their first road game since Week 2, after playing their last four games at home.

This game has the highest over/under of any game in Week 8, and the Atlanta Falcons have the highest implied total of any team. In 12 career games with the Falcons favored and an over/under greater than 50, Ryan has averaged 24.97 fantasy points per game.
