Jeff Mans breaks down everything you need to know to build safe, high-floor lineups for your cash games.
When I reflect on the 2022 DFS NFL season at the end of the year, week six will most likely be my proudest moment. That was a real tough week that we just navigated with the “game of the season” (Bills/Chiefs) being on the main slate and a highly owned secondary contest (Cardinals/Seahawks) closely behind. I am proud that we were able to identify the Bengals as a ripe investment, considering their two star players (Burrow & Chase) were returning to the scene of their biggest collegiate achievement. We got both Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase at below 15% ownership in every contest, which led many of us to the promised land.
It wasn’t a massive week and I am sure there will be many much more profitable weeks ahead, but taking the right two players from the big game in Josh Allen and Travis Kelce along with the simple pay-down RBs put the thread through the needle. Even if you didn’t use the core four or the Bengals connection, consider it a huge win as long as you didn’t go crazy on let’s say the trainwreck known as the Carolina Panthers…lol.
If you love high-flying offensive football, then this week is not going to be for you. We’ve got four of the highest-scoring and most productive offenses in the league off this week. Alright, well maybe the Rams are no longer fun to watch, but losing Cooper Kupp takes away one of my favorite weekly GPP plays. The Bills, Vikings and Eagles being off along with the Cardinals, Saints, Patriots, Steelers and Dolphins on at primetime thins out our week seven player pool considerably...
