We've got you completely covered. Quarterback Cam Newton FD 8300 DK 6800 Opponent TB Proj Points FD - 22.47 DK - 23.28 I am pretty sure I'm doomed to guess wrong on Cam Newton in every game of his career, but will that stop me from headlining my first picks article of the season with him? Heck no. Cam's career has this wild trajectory where the Panthers went from turning him loose, to trying to protect him, to realizing he kinda sucks at passing when he's not running, to realizing that since he sucks at passing when he's not running it probably doesn't matter if he just runs a bunch come Hell or high water. So now we're getting this weird QB/RB hybrid where he is only good for 175-250 passing yards per game, but is also getting 11-14 carries per game. This is hard for my merely human brain to comprehend since it's so unusual, so please pardon me when I just trust the numbers here. The truth of the matter is that while the daily fantasy football sites weight rushing yards as more significant than passing yards, running QBs will always be a value even if they lack some consistency. I think I've seen enough out of Newton at this point, though. With 14 carries last week and 11 the week before that, it's clear that Carolina is happy to just jam the dude on the ground while they fish around for that #2 seed. This week he also gets the literal dream match-up: Tampa Bay has allowed the 5th highest yards per carry on the ground while also allowing the very most passing yards in the league. Easy game, boys. Cam all the way! (sorry in advance when he throws for 130 yards and 2 picks). Russell Wilson FD 9000 DK 7000 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 22 DK - 22.75 So I've called Cam a poor man's Wilson, but after watching...

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 15 - 12/17/17 Week 15! I cannot believe I am saying this out loud right now. Well, to be fair, I am saying it in my head. Sorry peeps, my brain is a still a little scrambled from being sick all week and dealing with the agony of last weeks article where I overlooked the Tom Brady in Miami narrative and lost all Sunday-Monday slates with that stack. The Chiefs stack also tanked but if you watched the game it could have been so much better if Kelce would have gained just a half yard more and not dropped like two other touchdowns. If ifs and buts were candy and nuts, we'd all have a Merry Christmas. The funny thing about that phrase is that it became popular in 1970 when Don Meredith used it on Monday Night Football. Moving on! Before getting into this week's top stacks, let's take a look at some of the injury news and notes going into the weekend and remember there are two games on Saturday night now that the College Football regular season has ended. Carson Wentz - Tore his ACL in last weeks game vs. the Rams and has been put on season-ending IR. This means the Eagles will turn to Nick Foles for the remainder of the season and he is a bargain on both sites. Josh McCown - Broke his hand last week and will need surgery which will end his season. Bryce Petty will get the start this week vs. the Saints. Tyrod Taylor - Will be the starter this week for the Bills after Nathan Peterman was ruled out with a concussion. LeSean McCoy - After being limited early in the week with a knee injury, Shady was listed as a full participant on Thursday and is good to go this week. Leonard Fournette - Popped up on the injury report after not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday due to a quad injury. Stay tuned as lineup lock approaches and if he is out, T.J. Yeldon and Chis Ivory would likely split the work in the backfield. DeAndre Hopkins - Did not practice on Thursday with a toe injury. Not a whole of info available so stay tuned to the Friday and weekend team reports. Aaron Rodgers - Was medically cleared this week and will make his return to the Packers to face the Panthers in Week 15. Joe Mixon - Returned to a limited practice on Thursday but there is no guarantee he will be back on the field this week. If he is out, we can once again consider Gio Bernard although the decision is not as easy...

DFS NFL Talk Week 15 - Cash Game Plays for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/14/17 DFSR's Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the podcast discussing Week 15 cash game plays for FanDuel and DraftKings. There could be a lot of chalk this week in the upper tier of salaries with Russell Wilson as the clear option at quarterback. He'll face the Rams in what could be a high-scoring matchup. The Steelers' guys in Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown are the far-and-away best options at running back and wide receiver respectively where they are basically lapping the field in fantasy production this season. They also discuss Kenyan Drake, Adam Thielen, Cam Newton and have a "punt the tight end" debate. Subscribe to this podcast on...
