11:10 p.m. EST
All of a sudden the teams decided to play some offense as the Jets marched down the field and cap the drive with a Ryan Fitzpatrick to Brandon Marshall touchdown from 15 yards. Did it change anything?
It did in the FanDuel $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown as gunov3r took the top spot and panthers_rule dropped to 4th and 5th. The rest of the FanDuel GPPs remained unchanged.
At DraftKings, kucheykoo13 took the top spot in the $1M Kickoff Million thanks to Marshall. He still has to worry about Eric Decker and Donte Moncrief though as noahlizard and pappaRybread are sitting within striking distance with those players still in action. BigPenguin has moved into third in the $1M Blitz and sits 12 points behind BrandonAdams. He has Fitzpatrick, Decker, and Marshall on his roster so he needs the Colts to put together a drive to have a shot at passing Adams.
11:00 p.m. EST
Finally, a Colts touchdown as Andrew Luck hits everyone’s play of the week, Donte Moncrief, for a 26 yard TD. What did that do to the GPP landscape?
At FanDuel, Panthers_rule now holds the top two spots in the $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown. In fact, he has five of the top ten spots and is looking good to take down quite the chunk of change.The $750K Monster hasn’t changed any and jeremiahdb1974db continues to hold strong in the $5M Sunday Million. The TD did drop halloffamehall down to ninth place.
Over at DraftKings all the leaders remained the same but zudellz did move into fifth place in the Millionaire Maker and now sits just eight points behind first place. Current leader TheDuganBrothers definitely has a sweat on his hands now.
10:45 p.m. EST
Another uneventful quarter as the offenses continued to struggle. On FanDuel, panthers_rule and hammr54 continue to lead the way in the $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown. Jeremiah1974db continues to lead the $5M Sunday Million and looks safe. The strong performance from the Jets defense has moved halloffamehall into third place – which would be good for $150,000.
At DraftKings, johnsgambati is still in the lead in the $1M Kickoff but he’s got quite the sweat as Eric Decker has moved noahlizard into third place just a mere 2 points from the top spot. The rest of the big GPPs haven’t changed and the leaders look safe with just one quarter remaining.
9:59 p.m. EST
The game is at the half and the struggles of the Colts and a defensive struggle have led to not much changing in terms of the big GPPs. At DraftKings, the situation has not changed any as all the leaders heading into tonight are still holding onto the top spots. In the Millionaire Maker, TheDuganBrothers is looking good to collect the two million as he holds a 25 point lead over the closest player with a player (Andre Johnson) remaining in action.
Panthers_rule and hammr54 have taken the lead in the $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown thanks to strong first halves from Eric Decker and the Jets defense. They still have quite the sweat though as there are some players in the top 20 with more quarters remaining. Hangtime47 has maintained his lead in the $750K Monster and jeremiah1974db continues to thrive in the $5M Sunday Million.
Players will need some monster second halves to threaten the current status quo but if this weekend told us anything it’s that anything is possible in the NFL.
9:11 p.m. EST
It’s the end of the first quarter and there was no more scoring as Adam Vinatieri missed a short field goal attempt. Looking over the leader boards there were no changes. Dannytorg14 continues to lead but there are players with more quarters remaining looking to overtake him.
8:55 p.m. EST
First TD of the night sees Ryan Fitzpatrick hit Eric Decker. Dannytorg14 moves into the lead in the FanDuel $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown with that score but that lead is fragile and certain to change. jeremiah1974db moves into the lead in the FanDuel $5M Sunday Million as a result of the Andrew Luck interception. He has a six point lead with the Jets defense so second place quinny418 will be rooting for a high-scoring output from the Colts.

It was a crazy day of NFL DFS yesterday with all kinds of big GPPs taking place, and if you didn’t have DeAngelo Williams and his 3 TDs than you’re most likely not in contention for the big money. We’ll be here providing live updates throughout the night as the action winds down and some big paydays are awarded. Here’s a quick review of the current standings and who has outside shots at moving up the leaderboards.
DraftKings $10M Millionaire Maker ($20 entry)
TheDuganBrothers lead the way but still have some sweating to do as cnewman25 sits a little more than 25 points behind with his flex position left and longshot zudellz sits in 79th place, 34 points behind, with a WR left. Stranger things have happened…
Current Standings:
1. TheDuganBrothers 246.18
2. mdigiaco 244.14
3. Kathy843 240.34
4. AaronDaKing 238.78
5. Gageman72 235.46
23. cnewman25 220.96 (Flex left)
79. zudellz 212.16 (WR left)
DraftKings $1M Play-Action ($3 entry)
13chris44 looks to have this one locked up with his amazing score of 246.66. Only opticalanimal has a slim, outside shot of knocking him off as he sits with 217.84 points in 42nd place with a RB remaining to play.
Current Standings:
1. 13chris44 246.66
2. mdigiaco 245.56
3. mdigiaco 244.14
3. mdigiaco 244.14
5. hardluck1 235.96
42. opticalanimal 217.84 (RB left)
DraftKings $1M Blitz ($300 entry)
In the “high-roller” contest on DraftKings, BrandonAdams has a stranglehold on the top spot over the big names of TwoGun and BigPenguin. Laptop46 needs the game of a lifetime from his flex position as he sits in 22nd place more than 37 points behind and is the only player with any shot to knock off BrandonAdams.
Current Standings:
1. BrandonAdams 219.46
2. TwoGun 216.82
3. BigPenguin 196.96
4. Krhyme1 194.58
5. TwoGun 194.32
22. Laptop46 182.14 (Flex left)
DraftKings $500K Slant ($9 entry)
You would figure with a name like steelfan77 would load up on Steelers. You’d be correct and it’s that Steelers stack that leads the way with just the Monday night game remaining. Only dafong, 27 points behind and with a RB left, has any chance at taking away the victory.
Current Standings:
1. steelfan77 230.66
2. rdub315 226.34
3. fineline 226.16
4. gmoisio 223.26
5. TRS1130 220.54
33. dafong 203.56 (RB left)
DraftKings $1M Kickoff Million ($3 entry)
johnsgambati is looking good to take down the Thursday night Kickoff Million. Only kucheykoo13 (who also has the current second-place team) has a shot with a WR left and a little more than 22 points behind.
Current Standings:
1. johnsgambati 237.16
2. kucheykoo13 236.14
3. bigdan1602 227.84
4. pparker814 224.54
5. bradryant 224.5
53. kucheykoo13 214.96 (WR left)
FanDuel $5M Sunday Million ($25 entry fee)
quinny418 leads the way but has to sweat out jeremiah1974db who has a defense left and endall who sits in 9th place, 16 points behind, with a RB left.
Current Standings:
1. quinny418 201.06
2. jeremiah1974db 195.66
3. moezen64 191.56
4. cstcst 191.16
5. lomardileader 190.76
9. endall 185.14 4
FanDuel $750K Monster ($300 entry fee)
hangtime47 looks to have it locked up as there is no one with a skill position player remaining within striking distance.
Current Standings:
1. hangtime47 179.46
2. coastalwn 174.64
3. rayofhope 162.46
4. ganondorf 159.8
5. falconguy 159.14
FanDuel $500K NBC Sunday Night Showdown ($5 entry fee)
Still a lot of play left in this Sunday Night-Monday Night two game slate. Currently lhb72 holds the lead but with only 4 quarters left on his team, that is sure to change.
Current Standings:
1. lhb72 100.24
2. chris61075 99.84
3. mdawk 99.04
3. splash01 99.04
3. blnat20 99.04
