Titansvs. Panthers – Sneaky Game of the Week (One side of it)

Ican’t believe I’m calling this game sneaky, but my favorite salary savers forthis slate comes from Carolina. D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel are big timesalary savers and Derrick Henry is beyond cheap. Target this game for valuemore than anything else. I would not game stack this. Christian McCaffrey is mytop running back on the slate. He isn’t a salary saver, but he’s the MVP of thefirst half.

Vikingsvs. Chiefs

I’mindifferent on this game from the Chiefs side except for Travis Kelce as heshowed some rapport with Matt Moore. The more enticing side is the Vikingsfacing off against a terrible defense in Kansas City. Adam Thielen on FD is amust play because of his pricing. I’m nervous about his hamstring, but he’s toocheap on FD. He’s a fade on DK. My favorite running back besides McCaffrey is DalvinCook. I’ve done crazier things before, but maybe I can try to fit them both ina GPP. I don’t recommend it for cash.

Billsvs. Redskins

Let’sstart off and say I’m off the Redskins, but the salary savings in a JoshAllen-John Brown stack is great on both sites. I’m ignoring everything elseexcept for these two together in a GPP.

Coltsvs. Steelers

Oneof the top plays of the slate depend on one injury from this game. If JamesConner is out, load up Jaylen Samuels in all your lineups. Yes, Mason Rudolphis bad, but the amount of check downs thrown to the RB and the cheap price ofJaylen Samuels, it all depends on James Conner’s availability.  As for the Colts, T.Y. Hilton seems banged upand may not suit up, but this Jacoby Brissett price is too cheap to pass on andI’ll have a few GPP stacks with Brissett and whoever the number one wideout isprojected to be, but not as high on the Colts this week if Hilton sits. I mightbe interested in Marlon Mack for a tournament lineup or two, but I like otherRBs much more.

Bearsvs. Eagles

Herecomes the million dollar question, do we trust Mitch Trubisky or Carson Wentzto win us a million dollar this weekends? The answer for me is the Milly winneris coming from one of these two sides. You saw it here first! Although I cansee a million dollars being one with one of these two stacks, I’m not targetingit in cash and I’ll be using a few of these guys for stacks only in GPPs.

Jetsvs. Dolphins

Iactually like a Miami Dolphin this week. I know it’s a shot in the dark, right?Wrong. Mark Walton is the main guy and he faces a less than thrilling Jetsteam. He’s too cheap on both sites and I’m locking him in this week in morethan 50% of my lineups. I have ten lineups for tournaments that range from 50 –250 people and I’ll do 150 lineups by hand. Mark Walton will be in five ofthose ten tournament lineups. This is subject to change, but I have it fornow.  As for the Jets, I’ll throw a fewGPP lineups for Sam Darnold with Robby Anderson and Jamison Crowder along withsome with Demaryius Thomas, but I’m only on Le’Veon Bell this week from the Jetsside for my tournaments. Dolphins defense is thee worst and Le’Veon Bell isdue!

Broncosvs. Browns

Thisgame is a fade for me. There is always one game I like to avoid and this is thatgame. I might throw a few Browns DST in DFS because Brandon Allen might behorrendous. I’ll also throw two of 150 lineups with Brandon Allen stacks togive it a shot. Why not? For the Browns, Nick Chubb might be okay, but I’m not onit as much as others are.

Packersvs. Chargers

I honestly haven’t decided what I think of this game. On one side, the Chargers fired their Offensive Coordinator this week so do Hunter Henry, Melvin Gordon, Keenan Allen, etc. benefit from this? My initial thought is yes, but I want to wait and see on one week to see how the Chargers do with a new sheriff in town. That being said, Melvin Gordon is too cheap and I’ll use him as a salary saver plus I’ll throw a few Milly lineups for the Chargers. My only thing is I don’t trust any Packers WR to stack Rodgers with. This game is a confusing one for me thus far.

Lionsvs. Raiders – Game Stack of the Week #1

Unfortunatelywe have no Atlanta Falcons defense to pick on this week , but I like picking onthe Raiders pass defense as well.  On topof all that, I like attacking the beat up secondary of the Lions as well. Withthe bad secondaries and terrible pass defenses, sign me up for this shootout ofa game. This game will probably garner a lot of ownership, but have no fear becauseI have a second game stack of the week for you all.

Seahawksvs. Bucs – Second Game Stack of the Week

Thisis the second shootout game of the week. Seahawks got thrown all around by MattSchaub and the secondary is not very good. Both pass defenses are weak and both run defenses are actually not bad.Target the passing game!
