Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus was perfect on the day as the Packers won in Jacksonville against the Jaguars 30-27. McManus nailed all three of his field goal attempts on the afternoon, nailing kicks from 31, 36, and 24. That 24-yarder was the game winner for the Packers as they got down deep into Jaguars' territory thanks to a 51-yard reception by Jayden Reed and a short run by Chris Brooks where he got into first-down territory inside the five-yard line but slowed down before scoring. McManus also was perfect on the day with his extra point attempts as McManus converted all three. The Packers will host the division-leading Detroit Lions in Week 9, where McManus is a solid kicking streamer in a healthy offensive environment.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro has found himself at the bottom of fantasy kickers even though it hasn't been his fault. Pineiro has converted on every field and extra point so far, but he's only attempted one field goal in each game and one extra point overall. The Panthers' offense has been abysmal as they haven't even been able to get into field goal range let alone find the end zone at even an average rate. While their quarterback swap may alleviate some of those woes, Pineiro is better left on the bench or the waiver wire until the offense proves it can move the ball down the field. To put things into perspective, Pineiro only has four more fantasy points than Matt Gay and five more than Spencer Shrader, both of whom have only appeared in one game.
