How is it December and Week 13 already? More importantly, why I haven't I won more $? I actually have a theory about the second question. A couple years ago I read some research about the fluctuation, or potential fluctuation, of NFL scoring and how it could potentially impact fantasy football

Below, my best performing lineup is listed on the left, the ones that took down the contests I was in are on the right. My Best (149.78 DK Points) Cousins Henderson Mitchell Pittman Kenny G Van Jefferson Gronk Jefferson Pats One Winner (219.44) Brady Fournette Patterson Van Jefferson Williams Higgins Gronk Waddle Pats Another Winner (216.28) Stafford Mitchell Patterson Waddle Pittman Higgins Gronk Mixon Jags I find it very interesting that someone played Stafford naked and managed to win a tournament.

Hey all, I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. I didn't play Waller or Swift all that heavy on Thursday, so that was nice. The Vegas/Dallas game did end up blowing up, so I simply did not have enough pieces from that game in order to really do some damage. I

Sorry again about not getting a recap out on Monday...I've been doing the family vacation thing. Here were my Sunday lineups: DK Dak Dillon Wilson Higgins Gallup Cooks Kelce Conner Panthers SD Fraudgers Wilson Ingram Adams Jefferson Higgins Kelce Conner I cashed on SD, and used it in a GPP which did decently but Higgins's subpar performance submarined it. I wanted to add multiple high end WRs on SD since it's

After my first article or so this year, I got a question about the difficulty level increasing, at least in cash games, as the season goes on. It does indeed increase because the DFS sites, especially DraftKings, make pricing much more difficult. So what players are forced to do is

This looks like a chalky week in DFS cash games. As a reminder, chalk = highly owned. It also looks like a week where RB will make or break you. If you have watched Beautiful Mind, (wait...is that the right movie? Whatever) or read anything about Game Theory, then know it

My lineups across 3 sites: DK Lamar Booker Zeke Renfrow Cooks Hollywood Arnold Allen 49ers SD Lamar Ekeler Patterson Hollywood Thielen Renfrow Kelce Moore FD Allen Booker Zeke Renfrow Allen Cooks Arnold Hill 49ers I cashed on DK and SD. Fuck Fanduel. Honestly I don't know why I play on that site...never really works out for me.    The Curse? I did tell the Bills and Bills's fans to beware of the #ManningCastCurse. I considered Allen on DK and SD but ultimately was

Phew! Needed that one! My cash game lineups across the sites: DK Hurts Herbert Mitchell Chase AJ Brown Beasley Arnold Godwin 49ers SD Brady Herbert Mitchell Kupp AJ Brown Beasley Arnold Godwin FD Burrow Herbert Chubb Diggs Smith Chase Pitts Mitchell Football Team I cashed on DK and SD, but not on FD. On DK the cash line was a little higher than normal at 141.42. I was able to identify some players who had enough upside, which, as you'll see

Happy Spooky SZN! Halloween hasn't fallen on a Sunday since 2010. Back then the Rams were in St. Louis, the Raiders were in Oakland, the Chargers were in San Diego, the Bills were 0 - 7, Calvin Megatron Johnson still played, and Brett Favre was still a thing. There were

Apparently...it was the worst.   My lineups across three sites: DK   Hurts Henderson McKissic Adams Bateman St. Brown Seals-Jones DHop Patriots SD   Fraudgers Henry Swift Adams St. Brown DHop Kelce Kupp FD   Hurts Henry McKissic Cooks St. Brown Bateman Seals-Jones DHop Bucs Cashed nowhere with those three. I did have a decent day with gpp but just didn't have the right combo of players. For example, I didn't have a single Evans/Chase/Kupp lineup, which would have been nice. I actually had a lot of

Wanted to update everyone on something I mentioned in my DFS Preview article from 7 weeks ago: Lineup Trains. There are websites and companies out there, such as: DFS Army, Awesomo, EliteSports, Fantasypoints, Yahoo, ESPN, and several others on YouTube, Discord, and Patreon, among others, that people pay money to

Prelude The pay line in cash games was absurd last week. This happens a few times a year and is a major factor into the average pay line. It usually happens when chalk players like Henry and Mattison (over 60% owned last week) go bananas. This is why we want players
