Throw in the towel! Not because of our RB recommendations here at the Running Back Report Card. After all, we hit on six of the top ten scoring RBs last week! But because of the numerous injuries that ball carriers incurred in Week 2. And also, for the curious playcalling by several OCs, including one up in New York.

Using data to pick the best spots for RBs in a given week is challenging enough. But then you add injuries and unpredictable game scripts, and it all becomes much tougher. Ultimately, it was heartbreaking to see Nick Chubb go down with a severe leg injury and for Saquon Barkley to hurt his ankle when the Giants were running out the clock for a game-winning field goal. So erase those bad thoughts. Throw in the towel for Week 2, and let's start a new contest with the below building blocks for your DFS lineups.

We hit another trio of winners last week, posting a 3-1 record ATS for the second consecutive weekend. And we hit our outright winner in Survivor/Eliminator to keep moving forward. I don’t know about you, but my pools have already seen ~50% of entries eliminated. Though just two weeks, getting this far has been good navigating for us.

As a quick recap for Week 2, we continued to see dogs cover spreads as the favorites went just 7-9 ATS and are now 13-19 on the season. More importantly, the public went 9-7; however Vegas hit on their most important sides, getting covers in Arizona and the LA Rams. In case you missed it, the books are big fans of Rams HC Sean McVay.

Things have shifted slightly this week as we have only four home underdogs, where we had fourteen over the first two weeks. And home dogs are 7-7 ATS in those matchups to date.

So, let’s get moving and find some winners.

Week Two was a roller coaster, some of us just made it across the pay lines and some saw takedowns in GPPs. One take of mine from Week two as I mentioned in the breakdown, Puca Nacua is matchup proof! If you kept riding the hot hand with him, for DFS, you cashed in more tickets. On to Week Three! The injury bug bit the NFL across the league last weekend, including superstar running back Nick Chubb. With a ton of value on this slate it can again get pretty chalky, so let's think outside the box for GPPs. Cash games are a priority in my book, stay right here as I dissect the players to consider in each matchup.

Week One is in the books, but let's keep the momentum going for our bankrolls as we dive into this breakdown for Week Two of DFS. The 12-game slate loses last week's top fantasy scorer Tyreek Hill (47.5 DK PTS.), who we were all over like a wet blanket in our first article of the season. However, we do get the Chiefs back on Sunday afternoon along with a couple of other matchups with close to a 50-point total. That's usually my first line of attack, game totals, but so is most of the field. The public will be expecting a huge bounce-back from Kansas City after their loss in the opener, so let's zig when they zag and get creative to cross the pay line.

Week 1 has come and gone and we walked away a survivor as the Commanders had to comeback late in the game to beat the Arizona Cardinals. But it’s a W and we advance to Week 2 in our Survivor/Eliminator Pools. Plus we used a team in Washington that won't be favored in many games going forward.

As for our bets, the Texans kept us from a sweep, but we’ll take 3-1 any week as the Browns, Packers and Bucs all covered as dogs and won outright. The most interesting note from the first week was that road teams went 12-4 ATS showing that homefield was not an advantage.

Week 2 will be tougher as ten of the fifteen games feature a spread of 3.5 or less. It also features seven home underdogs. There is some volatility in the market as well as we’re seeing high volume of bets coming in on certain teams.

So, let’s get moving and find some winners.

We had a solid first week at The Running Back Report. I personally gave a grade of B+, as we hit on the top scoring RB and had one of the best returns with Aaron Jones going for 6.5x value. But we didn't see Roschon Johnson, Kyren Williams, or Josh Kelley being top 11 RB's. If you were one of the 0.09% that owned one of these backs, then hats off to you and hopefully you turned it into a big profit. Just goes to show value can be found anywhere, including back-ups, to help propel lineups to success.

Welcome back to another exciting season of CFB! We continue the Week three action on Saturday night with a big 8-game slate. We are starting to enter conference matchups, which always make for great environments. One of the big conference matchups this week has Tennessee visiting Florida.

Welcome to Friday's edition of Aces and Bases, where I’ll go through the top MLB DFS Aces and Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel. 

It’s Friday and I ain’t got &*(^ to do.  That’s a lie, I have an article to write about a great 13-game slate of MLB DFS.  At first glance, this is a great slate.  We have solid pitchers in amazing spots and bats in even better spots.  With 26 teams in action, we’ll have plenty of options on both the mound and at bat. 

Let’s dig in and make some money!

MLB DFS Aces – Main

Justin Steele vs. Arizona Diamondbacks

I said the other day when I recommended Joey Lucchesi against the Diamondbacks that they were an average-at-best team vs. lefties.  Lucchesi went on to pitch a gem and got us nearly 20 DK points.  Tonight, they’ll face a much tougher task in a pitcher like Justin Steele who is currently in the Cy Young conversation.  Steele has been brilliant.  

Over the last month, he’s pitched to a 1.36 ERA and has a nearly 31% K rate.  There ar...
