What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat the field? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
headChopper: With the extra games on this slate, I want to bump up my contests to larger fields that have multiple entries. We have a game (DET/LAR) that I think sets up as an explosive game stack, and I want lineups that reflect that in different ways. I’m planning to have some version of a game stack from that matchup in every lineup I build, and then I can fill in around it with players from the other games.
Stevietpfl: It feels great to have a 5-game afternoon slate. I’ll be playing a few extra lineups in small-field contests this weekend. The main focus will be DET/LAR, but I’ll look for lower-owned secondary stacks when building around that game. GBP/DEN and TEN/SF would be my next favorite games. I’ll have some exposure to Christian McCaffrey with a pass catcher from Tennessee.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll just be playing one lineup in single-entry contests, and I want to keep a close eye on the Packers RB injuries. Josh Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson are both listed as questionable, and if Jacobs is out, that could provide some major salary relief to spend up for the studs in the LAR/DET game. Wilson would be a great play if Jacobs sits, and if Wilson is out as well, Chris Brooks becomes mega salary relief.

About the Author
Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
