The Week 4 Sunday Night Football matchup sees the Carolina Panthers host the Detroit Lions. One of the best ways to get in on the game is by playing DraftKings Pick6.
Here are my top Pick6 plays for the Week 4 Sunday Night Football matchup.
Carolina Panthers vs. Detroit Lions DraftKings Pick6 Picks for Sunday Night Football
Amon-Ra St. Brown More Than 0.5 Rushing + Receiving Touchdowns
Amon-Ra St. Brown is off to another great start to a season. He ranks fourth in the league in receptions and already has five receiving touchdowns. St. Brown has scored at least one touchdown in all three games this season. Last season, he finished tied for second in the NFL with 11 receiving touchdowns, and is now on pace to easily clear that number this season. St. Brown should be in for a good game against the Panthers. Carolina faced the Cooper Rush-led Falcons and the Browns, but when facing a competent offense, gave up 59 points to the Bears. They should have similar struggles against this Lions offense. Detroit ranks seventh in the NFL in offensive EPA/play and third in offensive success rate. They should get into the red zone on a regular basis and Jared Goff should look to his favorite target when they get down there.
Bryce Young More Than 1.5 Passing Touchdowns
Bryce Young is putting up big numbers to start the season. He ranks second in the NFL with 939 passing yards and fifth in the NFL with seven passing touchdowns. Young only threw for one touchdown last week in a tough road game against the Cleveland defense. However, Young threw for three passing touchdowns in each of the two games prior to that. He should get back throwing touchdowns against the Lions. Detroit ranks 29th in defensive EPA/dropback and 29th in defensive dropback success rate. Tyler Shough, Josh Allen and Geno Smith all threw for three touchdowns against this Lions defense already this season. Young should keep that streak going and throw for at least two scores in this matchup.
Jared Goff More Than 1.5 Rushing Yards
This is a bold venture. Jared Goff is not known for his running abilities. However, this is such a short number to clear, requiring Goff to rush for just two yards against the Panthers. While Goff isn’t a running quarterback, he is mobile in the pocket and will take a couple of yards if he doesn’t have anything downfield. He is averaging three carries per game so far this season. Goff has rushed for at least two yards in all three games so far. Deshaun Watson ran 11 times for 45 yards last week against the Panthers. Cooper Rush and Jack Strand combined for 36 rushing yards against them the week prior. In Week 1, Caleb Williams ran for 65 yards against Carolina.
The Panthers are allowing 48.67 rushing yards per game to opposing quarterbacks, the second-most in the NFL this season. Goff has cleared this extremely low number in all three games this season and should do so again on Sunday night.
