DK Metcalf and Germie Bernard combined for 27 targets in Week 6 with a plethora of receivers injured. Next up is the New Orleans Saints, which should give an opportunity for another PPR scam day. The Saints play fast and pass heavy, giving plenty of time to opposing offenses versus a struggling defense. Aaron Rodgers was one of the few quarterbacks last season who was better versus zone coverage than man when it came to raw fantasy points, specifically benefiting Metcalf rather than him being defended man-to-man.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Metcalf's 27 targets in Week 6 set up well against the Saints' weak pass defense.

Metcalf combined for 27 targets with Germie Bernard in Week 6 amid receiver injuries. Against the Saints, who play fast and pass-heavy with a struggling defense, Metcalf benefits from Aaron Rodgers' historical tendency to perform better against zone coverage than man-to-man. With limited receiving options, Metcalf is positioned for another high-reception PPR day.
