Despite top scorer Adams, Green Bay Packers fall to Las Vegas Raiders in 228.00-226.44 duel
Green Bay Packers had the premier scorer in the league this week with WR Davante Adams racking up 49.7 points, but it wasn't enough to vanquish Las Vegas Raiders, who rallied to earn a 228.00-226.44 win. Despite trailing 220.44-184.90 heading into Monday night, Las Vegas Raiders roared back behind Cade Otton (6 Rec, 28 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Chris Godwin (8 Rec, 63 Rec Yds). Davante Adams (8 Rec, 177 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and Christian Watson (46 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 48 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) led the way for Green Bay Packers in the loss. Las Vegas Raiders (5-8) will look to keep it rolling against Seattle Seahawks, while Green Bay Packers (9-4) try to develop some positive momentum against New York Giants.
Dulin (1 Rec, 14 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) scored 10.4 points against the Cowboys in Week 13. His scoring output nearly tripled his 3.5-point projection and was much higher than his 3.5-point season scoring average. Dulin will face the Vikings next week.

Las Vegas Raiders
We're wondering if the GM of Las Vegas Raiders was sweating bullets in this one? In a matchup that was ultimately decided by a mere 1.56 points, Cameron Dicker (2-for-3 on the day) decided that going 3-for-3 on field goals would've made things just a bit too dull. Remember folks, every point matters!
Green Bay Packers
"Not getting many opportunities" is definitely not an excuse this week for Green Bay Packers. As a group, our nine pass-catchers (seven WR, two TE) combined to see a healthy 54 targets in Week 13. With just 29 total catches, this group may need to work on chemistry with their QBs.
