Lions stumble to midway point at 3-5 after loss to Vikings

Converts two of three FGA Prater made two of three field-goal attempts and both of his PATs during Sunday's loss to Minnesota.
Impact Prater badly missed his opening FGA from 46 yards wide left but later redeemed himself with kicks from 23 and 45 yards. The veteran has now converted multiple field goals in five of eight games with 12 total attempts coming from beyond 40 yards. While the Lions offense could struggle if Matthew Stafford (concussion) is forced to miss time, a Week 10 matchup with a middling Washington team is not something to run away from

Misses FG from 48 yards Prater missed his only field-goal attempt but made three of three PATs during Sunday's 41-21 loss to the Colts.
Impact Missing his only attempt from 48 yards out, Prater's fantasy performance otherwise suffered from an unlucky combination of Detriot's red-zone success and a number of Matthew Stafford's drive-killing mistakes. The veteran should get back on track in Week 9 against a Vikings defense that has allowed the third-most points per game (32.0) in 2020.

Makes extra-long PAT for the win Prater converted three of four field-goal attempts and both of his PATs during Sunday's 23-22 victory over Atlanta.
Impact Prater practically won this game for Detroit, first capping off one of the Lions' only successful drives in the first half with a 50-yard field goal as the second quarter expired. Prater then made another from 51 yards out in the third, uncharacteristically missed a go-ahead FGA from 46 in the fourth, then later redeemed himself with a successful 49-yard go-ahead field goal as well as the walk-off PAT that happened to be from 48 yards out due to penalties. Prater has now attempted at least four field goals in three of six games in 2020 and he will remain amongst the highest-upside fantasy options when the Lions take on the Colts in Week 8.

The Atlanta Falcons actually have a shot at a winning streakOCTOBER 22, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Converts two of three FGA Prater made two of three field-goal attempts and four of four PATs during Sunday's 34-16 victory over the Jaguars.
Impact Prater missed wide left from 57 yards out but connected from 31 and 41 yards. While the veteran has been somewhat frustrating to own this season due to near goose eggs in Weeks 2 and 4, Prater has the green light to attempt kicks from 50 yards out on a weekly basis and is usually productive when he gets the opportunities. In a Lions offense that is close to fully healthy, Prater could have a big Week 7 against a Falcons defense that has given up the fifth-most points per game (30.7) in 2020.
