Grinders Dominate NFL Week 10 Qualifiers!
The Big Events Breakdown this week is a little late but we had to push it through because of the impressive work load carried by Grinder Nation this week. I mean give it up for yourself guys, honestly, from top to bottom you guys tore it up. Quick two-clap for all of Grinder Nation! We had three huge names in daily fantasy heading off to Las Vegas after qualifying for the FFFC and DSFC finals.
Headchopper put a feather in the cap of his legendary NFL season by taking down the $10 FFFC Qualifier. Meanwhile, one of the hottest players in Daily Fantasy, DP47, took down the $109 counter-part on FanDuel. If that wasn’t an impressive enough showing for Grinder Nation this week, STLCardinals had a chance to win BOTH DSFC SEATS last weekend, before falling late in the $22 to another Grinder. He still took down the $109 though! These three are off to Vegas in December to compete for six-figures in cash. And if that weren’t enough, our very own RotoGrindersCal won 4 of the 5 DraftKings Chase for the Crown Events! Congrats guys!
Just unreal stuff from Grinders this week and those headlines above are just the beginning of the impressive run that RG members went on during NFL Week 10. Nearly every event I checked in on was riddled with Grinders topping the charts. Congratulations team, let’s keep the good vibes going in Week 11 but first, let’s look back at an incredible Week 10 that was.

As I brought up in the intro, HeadChopper came through with a big performance on his way to sealing an FFFC Seat and a reunion with quite a few other Grinders in Vegas. I don’t mean to go on a rant here but Chop has been arguably the best player throughout the entire NFL season and finally earns his entry in the biggest tournament in daily fantasy sports history. Big props going out to Chop on his win here, and to find out how he did it check out this JacknSoda blog.
Before I go and declare Chop as the best player this NFL season, I think the FFFC $109 Qualifier might have something to say. DP47 will likely spend the week out in Vegas between the DSFC and now the FFFC as he is the first to qualify for both. I tell you what, I can’t decide who has had the better NFL season but if we had an “NFL Player of the Year” award both Chop and DP would be topping the charts. I mean Chop had 4 TOP 10 TEAMS IN THE $10 FFFC and DP had 3 TEAMS IN THE $109 FFFC. Congrats DP and Chop!

#17 ranked Grinder STLCardinals84 takes down the $109 FFFC qualifier and fellow Grinder NaturalSlugger takes down the $22 qualifier. Big congrats to both of these players and to STLCardinals84 on pulling first in one and second in the other, that is ridiculous. But the theme of Grinder Nation kicking ass and taking names continues as two more Grinders book their tickets to Vegas with a chance at a $100K Prize pool. Great job!

Our own Cal Spears had the single highest scoring week in Chase for the Crown history this week, taking over 700 chase points and reclaiming first overall on the leaderboard and in the Super Bowl tickets chase. Cal won 4 of the 5 Chase events this week which is just down right bananas. He also had a Top-10 team in the “Early Bird”, the one event he couldn’t win.

Another qualifier, another Grinder a top the leaderboard as DKMaestro takes down the $10 SuperJoust qualifier. Congrats to DK, who by the way is one of the funniest people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He will now move onto the SuperJoust IV finale along with FrostyBear103 who was the only non-Grinder to win a major qualifier this week. Congrats to FrostyBear as well though, because in Grinder Nation we can respect all champions.

The FantasyFeud Field of Dreams tournament is heating up FAST. Dinkpiece has claimed 1st place in the race for best fantasy player in our RG Top-12 despite having only posted the top weekly score once all season. Remarkable consistency has been the name of the game for DinkPiece which is truly the goal in these FF season longs. His lead is a TINY .08 points though over beermakersfan who is again making a charge to reclaim 1st place in this event. This is gonna be incredibly tight as only 3 weeks remain in the regular season and then the playoffs begin! As of right now, there are 6 teams within 60 points of first place.
Check back in next week for another edition of the Big Events Breakdown.
