Can Marcus Mariota be the captain for your Thursday Night DFS slate?

Two weeks ago, we had an epic match-up between the Atlanta Falcons and the Carolina Panthers that resulted in an Overtime victory for the Falcons. Eleven days later, we get an encore presentation.

Today we look at the best DFS plays from this intriguing match-up.


Best quarterback picks

Cash Games: Marcus Mariota, QB, Atlanta Falcons (DraftKings $15.3K, FanDuel $17K)

Marcus Mariota is easily the call here in Cash games. No matter how frustrating the Falcons' offense can be, and it really can be, Mariota has the blend of rushing mixed in with the infrequent passing that gives him the highest ceiling in the game.

Tournaments: PJ Walker, QB, Carolina Panthers (Draftkings $14.4K, FanDuel $15K)

There is a lot of uncertainty around the Carolina Panthers QB situation. PJ Walker is listed as the starter heading into Thursday Night, subject to change. Walker was great two weeks ago against this same Atlanta Falcons team, but his leash will be short heading into this one following a disastrous performance in Week 9.


Best running back picks

Cash Games: Cordarelle Patterson, RB, Atlanta Falcons (DraftKings $17.7K, FanDuel $14K)

Cordarelle Patterson returned from IR last week and immediately became the Falcons' back to lean on. Patterson is the most versatile back in the team and has a nose for the end zone.

Tournament: D'Onta Foreman, RB, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $11.7K, FanDuel $11K)

Whether Chuba Hubbard is active is debatable since the Panthers are on a short week. D'Onta Foreman should be the top Panthers back regardless of Hubbard's availability.


Wide receivers and tight ends

Cash game: DJ Moore, WR, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $13.8K, FanDuel $12K)

We saw the DJ Moore game two weeks ago against Atlanta. Moore scored what we thought to be the game-winning score, then removed his helmet, causing a 15-yard penalty to push back the extra point, and the Panthers missed and eventually lost the game in Overtime. DJ Moore looks to avenge that moment and has a strong performance in this one.

Tournament: Kyle Pitts, TE, Atlanta Falcons (DraftKings $10.5K, FanDuel $8.5K)

Kyle Pitts continues to be the most heavily targeted option for the Falcons' passing game. The Falcons are even leaning on Pitts around the goal line. The arrow is pointing up for the ridiculously talented TE.
