First is NFL, second is annihilation of Quarter Arcade in NHL where 5/6 cashed. We don’t just do NFL in the Army. We have coaches in other sports that are wildly successful. Shout out to my NHL comrades helping me create lineups like this!

Resident NBA coach is a full-time DFS player with a wife, mortgage, and a kid. He never brags on himself, so I felt I would do the talking for him. Again, we have experts in all sports. And, we TEACH you to build these for yourself instead of taking our cut of your bankroll to the tune of $60/mo or, in some cases, a lot more.

Week 8 In Review
- An oddly placed “takeaway” I will slip in here is: NBA and NHL are fun too! If you have interest in learning these sports, our Army coaches are also very good in these games. I also post tips and retweets found around the industry along with thoughts of my own, obviously.
TEN – Murray and Walker are the only cash safe plays going forward.
JAX – Organization blows from the top down, including executives. Firing OC instead of Gus isn’t solving anything.
WAS – Following people on Twitter can tip you off to micro-slate value plays like Ryan Kelley….holy shit that was a nice pickup.
CIN – Eifert renders LaFell useless as tits on a bull.
NE – Brady is matchup proof and worth his price tag. Gronk is freakin’ Houdini….making Bennett completely disappear.
BUF – They just suck everywhere. Don’t play these guys outside McCoy. It’s getting “too cute” most weeks.
NYJ – Fitzy won’t regain anyone’s faith anytime soon. He has a right to bitch. The Jets have a right to cut his ass. 16/34 for 228 in a premium matchup where he got all pissed at the “lack of trust” is like trying to have sex with whiskey dick. It drags on longer than it needs to and by the end everyone is just wishing it would stop.
CLE – McCown makes Pryor playable. Crowell is a high school tease with those long runs early this season. Learn from your high school days. Don’t fall for that trick.
DET – Riddick is for real when used correctly.
HOU – Osweiler is dramatically overpaid and should be charged with grand larceny in the state of Texas.
KC – Concussion protocol sucks league-wide and is overdone like saying every kid running through Target has ADD.
IND – Andrew Luck loves Donte Moncrief. Not in the dirty way, but in a very good way for Moncrief’s current price tag.
SEA – Wilson’s knee affects the entire offense…..even in Coors Field.
NO – Brees never had a shot at the #1 QB spot this week. Playing him was an exercise in futility at his price. Go ahead and argue with me. I was right on this one the whole time whether you admit it to yourself or not.
OAK – Cooper/Crabtree are completely interchangeable and unpredictable for DFS. Run equal shares of them or just stick with one. But, don’t try and time them in their matchups.
TB – Oakland staying over for the week was the story here, but yes, TB was a letdown for the most part.
ARI – Palmer may not be washed up, but it could also be that CAR’s secondary is really, really bad. We should be targeting them accordingly.
CAR – Offense is just not dependable enough for cash…..even Cam in bad matchups. Yet another player I had ZERO interest in this week when others were taking shares. Pfft.
SD – Gordon might be better than we think even though you can attack DEN with RBs this year.
DEN – Tip for your DST plays: Think about a game where the opposing QB is going to have to take shots. DEN vs SD had that. Easy play when Rivers needs to just chuck it and chuck it….because he will have the trust of his OC to keep gambling. Remains to be seen in MIN tonight, but CHI shouldn’t be putting that kind of trust in their QB….meaning game management will likely cap MIN’s chances of putting up big numbers. Think about that next time you only see 2 or 3 defenses on your week’s radar.
GB – Rodgers may not throw for 300 often anymore, but his volume of TD passes in the red zone with no RB will make up for it. It’s a weird floor, but it’s still a floor.
ATL – Despite what we thought, AND Freeman’s 2 TDs, ATL is committed to the committee. And that sucks for DFS. Also, with all these weapons, naked Ryan is real. Julio is too highly priced to be capped by GB’s lack of ability vs the WR1s this year. I ran with it everywhere. I’ll be thinking more deeply on this situation next time it presents itself.
Week 9 Preview
- 6 teams on bye again this week…..including most of my season long team. ARI, CHI, CIN, HOU, NEP, and WAS. Make the appropriate swaps.
- Big games will likely be ATL @ TBB, NOS @ SF, and IND @ GBP….look to stack these up.
- I’m watching QBs from: ATL, IND, and SDC
- RBs from: DAL, NO (but not excited), and TEN
- Defenses from SEA, GB, and MIN
Short preview, but like all weeks you can see how much changes. Besides, there aren’t a lot of Vegas lines released yet, and that starts my research. I really don’t put a lot of thought into anything until I see all the lines. The above is simply what jumped out at me without really looking.
Follow us in Slack, and on Twitter, to see how Week 9 evolves. And, get inside here and join all our above winners that will tell you the Army has done more for their games than other sites they have joined. It’s not going to be a secret for long!
