Minnesota Vikings Quarterback - Kirk Cousins Primary Target - Adam Thielen There are three games this week with 50+ Vegas Totals including the Saints/Rams game which has a season-high 60! You can bet all of those QB/WR combos are going to be chalky this week so I am going to go in a bit different direction with my first stack. The Vikings are at home as 5.5 point favorites vs. the Lions who do rank Top 10 in passing yards per game given up but also rank 30th when looking at DVOA against the pass. The matchup isn't what stands out, however, it is the Vikings and their leaning on the passing game this season. They are third in the league in pass vs. rush % and have totaled 78% of their total yards and 76% of the teams offensive touchdowns through the air. Kirk Cousins is one of just five quarterbacks who is projected for 40 or more pass attempts this week but is the only one of those who is completing over 70% of his passes for the season. He is also second in the league with 2,521 yards and sixth in touchdowns with 16. He is also elite when breaking down matchups for his wideouts and while it was Stefon Diggs getting most of the target share last week catching 10 of his 11 targets for 119 yards and a touchdown(30.9 DK/22.9 FD points), Thielen caught all seven of his targets for his record-tying 8th straight 100+ yard game. This week I am looking to stack Cousins with Thielen almost exclusively as Diggs is going to see a heavy dose of Darius Slay on the outside leaving Thielen to get the MUCH better matchup against a combination of Nevin Lawson and Teez Tabor. You can almost guarantee Cousins knows all about the record and will do everything in his power to get Thielen past Calvin Johnson and no better time to do it than against Megatron's old team.

DFS NFL Podcast Week 9 - Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 11/1/18 The DFSR crew of Doug Norrie and James Davis are on the NFL podcast discussing Week 9 cash game plays for FanDuel and DraftKings. The trade deadline did put some key situations in flux this week and there's plenty to discuss for the main slate of games. At quarterback, they debate the Cam Newton and Ryan Fitzpatrick price on both sites as they face off each other. James takes the Fitz side while Doug seems all-in on Cam. They also look at Todd Gurley on DraftKings, Latavius Murray's safety and have a debate between Christian McCaffrey and James Conner. And then at WR, they look at how all of the trade deadline deals affected the various teams. All of this and more on a full NFL podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings. Subscribe to this podcast on...

We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick FD 7100 DK 5500 Opponent CAR Proj Points FD - 20.86 DK - 21.59 We're sticking with Tampa Bay quarterbacks! I hate to minimize serious medical conditions, but I think I can safely say that I could be clinically diagnosed with trauma after what I experienced with Jameis Winston last week. Watching him go from being tied with Dalton in fantasy points to tossing two picks and being pulled from the game was more than my little heart could handle. That being said! It's opened up some serious opportunity at quarterback this week. Fitzpatrick is now priced like a back-up on FD and DK, and was named the starter in this week 9 tilt against the Panthers. The 35 year old Fitzpatrick is having more than a career year, with a completion percentage hovering near 70% and an absurd 10.8 yards per attempt. I don't think we can count on him to perform at quite those levels forever, but you don't need him to for him to be a cash game lock this week. Fitzy also dispelled any notions that Winston's dud was weather based - he showed up and promptly dropped 194 yards and two touchdowns in 15 passing attempts. The Bucs are seven point underdogs, but this game has the second highest total on the slate, and you have to think Fitzpatrick will have plenty of opportunity to pay off these paltry prices. Cam Newton FD 8600 DK 6600 Opponent TB Proj Points FD - 25.12 DK - 25.39 If Fitzpatrick weren't starting this week, I think you'd probably go by a pretty good rule of thumb for 2018: just play any quarterback against Tampa Bay. The Bucs are fresh off of another week of making a mediocre quarterback look like the world's greatest, and I expect that will continue this week against Newton. Cam is coming off his most efficient game of the season, and more importantly, a game that highlighted exactly why you love playing him in a game with a high total: he's the team's whole offense. Sure, Christian McCaffrey is there, but he's almost entirely dependent on catching passes to pay his value, which just gets Cam paid anyway. Newton...

DFS NFL Podcast Week 8 Recap and Week 9 Preview for FanDuel and DraftKings DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis are back on the podcast talking about Week 8 in the NFL for FanDuel and DraftKings and looking ahead to Week 9. They start off the podcast looking at the brutal Jameis Winston performance and what to make of INTs as a driver of fantasy predictions. They then go position-by-position at some of the top performances like Marlon Mack, Adrian Peterson and Phillip Lindsay and whether that kind of production is still sustainable going forward. At receiver, there was a drop-off in the target share for some of the elite usage WRs and an uptick for some middle tier guys. They discuss whether there are any takeaways from these performances.
