Top of the morning/afternoon/evening! I am your man Johnny Espizito, and This is your, NFL FanDuel Week 10 #OffTheCuff playbook.
If youāre just now getting hip, #OffTheCuff or #OTC for short, is my way giving you something different for NFL FanDuel Week 9 from the normal touts and stats you dig up week in, and week out for FanDuel.
I tell people all the time, itās not all about the numbers baby!
My job, is to show you why!
Letās Dive right in shall we!?
NFL FanDuel Week 10 ā The Offensive Line
All aboard the Saintās train.Ā Clearly, they have a good O-Line. The production is absurd. This week, though on the road, I looooove the Saintās ground game this week. Those who live and die by the numbers will say, āBrees away from home is a thingā.
Ummmmm OKā¦SURE. I really donāt buy into this week. This O-Line is on a mission to remind teams they are not to be messed with. The Saintās run game gets an easy target with the Bengals this week. Yeeeaupā¦Iām plugging in both, Kamara and Ingram and not looking back.
I love how this line is the poster child of the new dominant O-Line. Big, athletic and smart. They pick up defensive schemes almost better than any line Iāve seen in a LONG time.
*Quick Reminder*
The O-Line is IMPORTANT! Without them, your QB has no time to check down, pass (so he can make those pricey WRās look good) or hand off to the RB. The RB has nowhere to go, jerseyās will be all around him and plug the run. They are vital. So, when building your lines, remember to ask yourself, āHowās their O-Lineā?
NFL FanDuel Week 10 ā The QB
Phillip Rivers ā The gunslinger. JUICY match-up vs The Raiders this week. One thing we know about this season, DFS wise, is that the Raiders give up a ton of yards to QBās. Who better to benefit than Rivers?
Patrick Mahomes ā Ladies and gents, ITāS SHOWTIME! I donāt care how good the Cardinals Pass D is, have you NOT learned anything from me this season? Mahomes will and CO. will embarrass ANY secondary. Too many options to deal with, not enough man power to slow them up. Yes, heās expensive, butā¦Heās worth it.
*#OffTheCuff Dart*
Nick Mullens ā YES SIR , I am going there! Last week he played well, against this sorry Giantās secondary, I like his chances to have a good game. No snacks coming down the gut, replacement CBās, why not? Heās $6k. He will give so much more room for activities!
NFL FanDuel Week 10 ā The Running Backs
Melvin Gordon, III
Chargers vs Raiders, should be quite the show this week. All signs point to a shootout IMO. Neither Defense is scaring anybody. With Coach Gruden waiving his āBe goneā wand all over the place, he has turned this once promising defense, into a living, breathing dumpster fire. The Raiders rank dead last against the run. 1 + 1 =2, and āBlue Horseshoe loves Anacott Steel.ā If you donāt understand the referenceā¦it means, this is me, telling you, to double down on what Iām saying. This āstockā is going to explode!
As I mentioned above in the O-Line segment, Kamara and Ingram are a nice RB stack option as well.
*#OffTheCuff Dart*
Ito Smith ā Gets the Browns this week. Of course Tevin Coleman is the lead back, but for some reason, I think the scale tips Itoās wayĀ this week. Coleman will do the heavy lifting. Catch the passes, Ito will get the Red Zone touches. The brown have given up OVER 1,000 yards to RBs this season. Yeaā¦LOVE this spot.
( Stats by https://fftoolbox.scoutfantasysports.com/football/2018/points-allowed.cfm?pos=RB )
BTWā¦Yes
Kareem Hunt is a great play. As is Christian McCaffrey, AGAIN. Both have smash spots, but in true #OTC fashion, my job is to give you the plays people wonāt be on as heavy.
NFL FanDuel Week 10 ā The WRās
Samuel is a speed guy, and is a viable option as well.
But, Iāll be on Moore vs this terrible Steelers defense.
Who better to pair with the gunslinger? His 2 favorite targets should FEAST this week. Oakland has given up over 1,000 yards vs Wrās this season SO FAR. If possible, I might stack them as well.
NFL Fanduel Week 10 ā The Tight End and Defense
Zach Ertz/George Kittle/Austin Hooper
For those playing the T-M slate, Ertz and Kittle are my top options. Ertz always shows out at home and against my Cowboys. Yes,Ā our pass rush is good, but Ertz is a nightmare to deal with. I see some quick slants to him, taking advantage of Sean Lee being out.
Kittle is one of the cogs to piece together with my dart of Mullens. Plain and simple. The Giantās defense is almost non existent. Why not exploit that goodness?!?!
Hooper is another dude who just finds a way to get open and grab big chunks yards. I think heāll be low owned and put up a decent score this week against the Browns.
Defense
Bills:Ā Are interesting this week.Just like last week. I think everybody was a week early, on the call. Darnold is in a walking boot, so something is wrong. Bills defense COULD, have a day this week.
Bears: Are also in a good spot AGAIN. I donāt expect a repeat of last week, but I do expect them to be solid against a sub par Lions O-Line.
Thatās it for me folks. You can find me on the twitter machine @KingZito973 if you want to discuss anything further!
Letās have a green week bay bay!
