Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater enters Week 8 as a must-start option facing off against Carolina. The Panthers rank as a top-10 defense in yards allowed, and have allowed scores on just 37.7% of drives, ranking No. 12 currently. The Panthers' ability to slow offenses could lead to multiple opportunities for Prater to put up points this week. The Bills maintain a high-powered offense that can score on anyone, and Prater should benefit again this week.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott had his first missed field goal of the season against the Vikings as a 42-yard attempt sailed wide right in the fourth quarter. He did, however, make all four of his extra points. As it stands, Elliott is already an unreliable fantasy kicker with his lack of attempts, and he's even more unappealing if he starts missing. The Eagles will host the Giants in Week 8, and New York allows 25.3 points per game-10th-most in the league. But even with a below-average defense, Elliott has not shown that he's start-worthy in fantasy.
