The Packers are looking to build momentum after a strong offensive showing last week, while the Cardinals continue to battle without Kyler Murray under center. Jacoby Brissett will once again lead the charge for Arizona, this time with rookie sensation Marvin Harrison Jr. cleared to play. Can the Cardinals’ offense keep up with Jordan Love and company in Lambeau? Let’s dive into the fantasy outlook for this NFC showdown.
🔥 Quick Start Table
| Player | Team | Designation | Notes |
| 🔥 Jordan Love (QB) | Packers | Start | Great matchup vs. soft Cardinals defense |
| 🔥 Josh Jacobs (RB) | Packers | Start | Should dominate on the ground & through the air |
| 🔥 Romeo Doubs (WR) | Packers | Start | Reliable target share, strong red-zone role |
| 🔥 Tucker Kraft (TE) | Packers | Start | Red-zone threat, steady usage |
| 😴 Matthew Golden (WR) | Packers | Sleeper | Targets increasing, deep-league upside |
| 🔥 Jacoby Brissett (QB) | Cardinals | Start (Streamer) | Productive with MHJ back in lineup |
| 🔥 Trey McBride (TE) | Cardinals | Start | Consistent regardless of QB |
| 💪 Zay Jones (WR) | Cardinals | Flex | Coming off big week, solid volume |
| 💪 Marvin Harrison Jr. (WR) | Cardinals | Flex | Cleared to play, red-zone threat |
| 💪 Bam Knight (RB) | Cardinals | Flex | Took over backfield, volume play |
| 🧊 Cardinals Defense | Cardinals | Sit | Gives up too many points, low upside |
Starts
Jordan Love, QB, Packers
Love should like his chances against this soft Arizona defense. The Cardinals have struggled to pressure quarterbacks and have given up multiple passing touchdowns in nearly every game. Expect a comfortable 2–3 TD day from Love.
Josh Jacobs, RB, Packers
Jacobs is in line for a massive workload and should decimate this defense on the ground. Arizona’s run defense ranks among the league’s worst, and Jacobs will also be a factor through the air. Lock him in as an RB1 this week.
Romeo Doubs, WR, Packers
Doubs has quietly become Love’s most consistent target, and this matchup is tailor-made for him. Expect a heavy target share and strong red-zone usage.
Tucker Kraft, TE, Packers
Kraft has carved out a solid role in Green Bay’s offense and continues to see red-zone looks. He’s a fine streaming option this week, with a good chance at a touchdown.
😴 Sleeper – Matthew Golden, WR, Packers
Keep an eye on the rookie. His target count has increased steadily, and the Packers will continue to develop him as their secondary receiving option. Deep-league managers could find sneaky value here.
Jacoby Brissett, QB, Cardinals
If you’re dealing with injuries or a bye week, Brissett is a viable fill-in. He looked poised last week against the Colts and now gets Marvin Harrison Jr. back to help stretch the field.
Trey McBride, TE, Cardinals
McBride has been the definition of consistency regardless of who’s under center. Brissett should continue to rely on him as a safety valve. He’s a top-10 TE play this week.
💪 Flex Plays
Zay Jones, WR, Cardinals
Jones had a huge performance last week and remains a solid flex option, even with Harrison Jr. returning. Expect steady volume in a likely shootout.

Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Cardinals
Harrison’s return is great news for Arizona’s passing attack. Even if Brissett spreads the ball around, MHJ should see plenty of red-zone looks. Start him with confidence as a WR2/Flex.
Bam Knight, RB, Cardinals
Knight took over the backfield last week and handled a large workload. Expect that to continue as Arizona looks to control tempo and keep Green Bay’s offense off the field.

🧊 Sit
Cardinals Defense
This unit gives up far too many points and struggles to force turnovers. Facing a Green Bay team that’s hitting its stride offensively, the Cardinals’ defense is an easy sit in all formats.
Bottom Line for Packers and Cardinals
The Packers’ offense should continue to roll at home, making Love, Jacobs, and Doubs all strong plays. For Arizona, Brissett is a capable streaming QB with Harrison Jr. and McBride as reliable options. Expect fireworks, but don’t expect the Cardinals’ defense to stop the bleeding.
Prediction: Packers 31, Cardinals 23
