Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo FD 7400 DK 6500 Opponent KC Proj Points FD - 19.51 DK - 20.49 To say Jimmy G’s first two games have failed to live up the end of the 2017 season hype train would be an understatement. He really struggled in Week 1 on the road against a very good Viking’s defense and Week 2 against the Lions saw the 49ers establishing the run in a game they led by 17 entering the 4th quarter. Prepare to see a shift in Week 3. For all of the Patrick Mahomes’ hype / KC offensive juggernaut, their defense has allowed an ungodly 860 yards through the air in the first two weeks. That’s 100 more yards than the next closest team (Tampa Bay). Sure, teams have been forced to play catch up against the Mahomes “Every single drive I get the ball I score a TD” offense. But the defense was bad last year (30th in DVOA) and really doesn’t look at all improved this year. Garoppolo completed 70% of his passes in Week 2 working his 18 completions to eight different receivers. He also threw for to touchdowns and had a drive *shortened* by a Matt Breida 66 yard run in the third. This game should script very well for Jimmy G in that he’s the QB with the second-most implied points as an underdog. Deshaun Watson FD 7700 DK 6100 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 21.28 DK - 22.39 Carson Wentz FD 7400 DK 6200 Opponent IND Proj Points FD - 20.93 DK - 21.79 All right, stay with me here for a second. I know both of these guys are basically less than a year removed from ACL surgery and Wentz is making his season debut after sitting out the first two games. But I think in both cases we could be looking at buy-low opportunities. Let’s start...

DFS NFL Podcast Week 2 Recap and Week 3 Preview for FanDuel and DraftKings - 9/18/18 DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to the NFL podcast recapping a Week 2 for FanDuel and DraftKings and looking ahead at some early ideas for Week 3. They start off with Doug taking the “L” on the Patrick Mahomes call from last week and they also discuss some of the other quarterback play. they break down games from Alex Smith, Andrew Luck, Matt Ryan and more. They also spend some time at how little usage running backs got on the ground in Week 2. It makes for some interesting ideas going forward on who (if any) the *safe* running backs are from a usage standpoint. The list looks quite small. And then they wrap up with some of the receiving games we saw from Antonio Brown, Michael Thomas, the Vikings’ guys and more. Subscribe to this podcast on...
