Four Players to Target in Monday Night DFS Showdown

Monday Night Football in Week 5 features the Cleveland Browns visiting the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers are favored by 3.5 in a game with an over/under of 47.5. It appears that Vegas is expecting this game to be above the average NFL game in points scored, so I’ll focus […]

Jett Duffey, Joe Burrows Shine in Week 6 of College Football DFS

Saturday was definitely a day for robust college football quarterback numbers, and you pretty much needed two in your lineups to finish deep in the money in DFS contests. Although Jalen Hurts had another big day for Oklahoma, the winning lineups mostly bypassed him for other gunslingers, such as the […]

The New York Jets (0-4) and frustrated RB Le’Veon Bell continued their winless streak with a 31-6 blowout loss against the Philadelphia Eagles (3-2). Another week, another ugly loss for the #LOLJets.

Five DFS Sleepers in the NFL This Week

It’d be nice to cram Christian McCaffrey, Ezekiel Elliott, Lamar Jackson, Julio Jones, and DeAndre Hopkins into your DFS lineup, but that’s just not feasible with salary caps. (And everyone would just pick all of the best players, making most lineups very similar.) No, to play some of the studs, […]

One Bet: $100: Chicago Clamps Down on Raiders in London

The Chicago Bears and Oakland Raiders are flying across the pond for their game, and with my One Bet, $100, I like the under in this contest. It opened at 41.5 points and dropped to 40.5 at most sportsbooks. In Las Vegas, Station Casinos still have it at 41. There […]
