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: I like multi-entry large-field tournaments for this slate. I’m targeting different pieces of the DAL/CHI game as my separator. If the WR2s, WR3s, and TEs from that matchup hit, those lineups flourish while still giving me salary to load up on studs from other games.
Stevietpfl: I prefer 1 to 3 lineups in small-field contests for this slate. I don’t love the pivots off the DAL/CHI game, so I’m just going to make a few different game stacks of that matchup. I’ll look to be different at running back and tight end to make my stacks unique.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll be playing 1 lineup in large-field GPPs and single-entry contests alike, and I want to overly stack the Cowboys. The Bears’ defense has been dreadful, so I want to double- or triple-stack with Dak Prescott. My favorite players to pair with the Cowboys are from NO/SEA, with Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Kenneth Walker III, and Juwan Johnson.

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.
