I like to say every batch of NFL results is weird in its own way. The chaos is the product. That’s what we as fantasy managers come to expect. We try to benefit from the entropy, if we can. We turn into the skid. And man, there were plenty of fantasy skids in the early window of Week 11. Several big-name stars put up brick performances on the eve of Thanksgiving. Start in Detroit, where Josh Allen was erratic early and finished with just 197 yards, one touchdown and a piddly seven rushing… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Hockey series. There are only two NHL games Sunday, and all four teams will be on the second leg of a back-to-back. The first matchup starts at 6 p.m. EST. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Casey DeSmith, PIT at CHI ($27): The Blackhawks are clearly the worst offense in action on Sunday. And DeSmith is probably the best goalie on the slate with a .910 save percentage. GOALIE TO AVOID Sergei Bobrovsky, FLA at… Source link

After a slow slate Saturday, we’re back to normal here with eight games and seven making up the main card beginning at 6 p.m. EST. We have many superstars in the DFS pool, and it’s going to be challenging to pick the right ones. We also want to offer up some value plays to pair with those studs, but we’ll kick things off with two top guards. Guards Stephen Curry, GSW at HOU ($46) We assumed Curry would take it easy after his Finals run last year, but he’s on a mission. The former MVP has scored… Source link

Halfway through November, the NHL is up and running and firing on all cylinders. It’s been an interesting season thus far, and that will hopefully continue Sunday. There are five games starting at 6 p.m. EST or later. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Igor Shesterkin, NYR vs. ARI ($36): Both teams are on the second leg of a back-to-back, but Shesterkin and the Rangers are at home. The Coyotes come in last in shots on net allowed per game. Shesterkin is… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Basketball series. Those Friday and Saturday slates were insane. You need to be a diehard DFSer to enjoy cards like those because I’ve never seen so many big-name players ruled out over a two-day span. That’s where the NBA is trending, and we must adapt to this new environment. The positive is we shouldn’t have too many of those issues on Sunday with no team on a back-to-back. With that said, we do have a short slate with only three games making… Source link

Sunday is a light day in the NHL with only three games and two of them starting at 5 p.m. EST, so you’ll need to get your lineups in a little earlier. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Igor Shesterkin, NYR vs. DET ($36): Shesterkin started a little slow by his standards, but has improved to a 2.41 GAA and .916 save percentage to match recent numbers. The Red Wings are on the road for the second leg of a back-to-back, which will help the the Russian… Source link

The Week 9 NFL main slate begins Sunday at 1:00 p.m. EDT and features 10 games. There are six teams on bye this week: the Browns, Cowboys, Broncos, Giants, Steelers and 49ers. Additionally, the Thursday Night Football (Eagles-Texans), Sunday Night Football (Titans-Kansas City) and Monday Night Football (Ravens-Saints) participants are also excluded.

After another successful Saturday slate, we’re back to the grind for this Sunday card. We have eight games spread throughout the day, with seven making up the main slate. It’s rare to have seven on a Sunday, but we’re grateful to see so many teams in action. Many big-name players have brilliant matchups, so we’ll do our best to offer up a stud and value play at each position. With that in mind, let’s start with my favorite play on the slate. Guards Devin Booker, PHX vs. HOU ($35) People were… Source link
