STLCards' NFL Field Stretcher: Week 16

Justin Van Zuiden, also known as STLCardinals84, has proven time and time again that he’s one of the best tournament players in the DFS industry. Join him each week as he gives you a glimpse into the mind of a GPP maestro.

Week 16

Welcome back to the NFL Field Stretcher for Week #16! For those of you who are in season-long championships this week, good luck in your contests! For those of you who are season-long leagues that run until next week, fire your commissioner. For those of you who play the DFS game, let’s try to make some cheddar! These last two weeks are somewhat weird, as we will have some teams that give up and start to play their younger players. We also have some teams that are going all out for playoff positioning, but this year is a little more strange than most in that nobody has their seed and playoff slot 100% secured. Therefore, all the playoff hopefuls should still be playing to win in Week 16.

This is a pretty fun slate, so let’s dig into the breakdown!
