Noto's NFL DFS Core Plays: Conference Championships
Conference Championships
This is the final Core Plays article of the season. I just want to say thanks to each and every one of you, even if you only read a handful of these.
Quarterback
The quarterback position is fairly straightforward in my eyes. There are three tiers and Patrick Mahomes is sitting by himself at the very top. He has put up back-to-back 40+ fantasy point outings and now gets to face a very mediocre Bengals defense at home. During the regular season, Cincinnati was ranked 24th in DVOA against the pass and 31st in adjusted sack rate. If you can’t get pressure on Mahomes, good luck my friends. On top of the talent and the matchup, Mahomes has been very aggressive on the ground, which adds yet another weapon to his arsenal. For cash games and for small-field tournaments, I see no reason to get away from Mahomes.
