As the NFL regular season nears its conclusion in Week 18, teams are still vying for playoff positions, making this an exciting time for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) enthusiasts. This week, attention is drawn to matchups involving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Atlanta Falcons, and Washington Commanders, all of whom have critical games ahead.
The Buccaneers face the New Orleans Saints, where a win is essential for Tampa Bay to secure the NFC South title. Quarterback Baker Mayfield is expected to target star receiver Mike Evans, who is close to achieving his 11th consecutive 1,000-yard season. Jalen McMillan is also highlighted as a player to watch, given his impressive scoring record in recent games.
In another matchup, the Falcons will take on the Carolina Panthers. Atlanta needs a victory to keep their playoff hopes alive, especially without their key player Bijan Robinson. The Falcons' offense could exploit a struggling Panthers defense that allows significant fantasy points. Drake London and Darnell Mooney are noted as potential stars in this game.
Lastly, the Washington Commanders are set to play the Dallas Cowboys, with Washington aiming to maintain their playoff position. Jayden Daniels is anticipated to lead the Commanders, supported by receivers Terry McLaurin and Olamide Zaccheaus. With Dallas's defense allowing high fantasy points to quarterbacks, Washington looks to capitalize on this opportunity.
