NFL Hot Sheet - Week 1

Week 1 of the 2017 NFL season has finally arrived! Enough offseason stories of players in the best shape of their life and preseason performances that consist of almost no snaps from the actual starters. The last two season I have written a…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Divisional Round

Time for the final Offensive Tendencies article for the NFL season. It has been a fun season with some great calls and of course some misses but I hope you have enjoyed reading the column as much as I have enjoyed writing it. So, for this weekend’s…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Wild Card Weekend

Time for the Playoff Edition of the Offensive Tendencies article. With only four games in the Wild Card round, the gaps to find increased opportunities is very limited. So, I will once again be utilizing the “Hot Sheet” style that I used…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 17

Week 17! Hard to believe it is already the last week of the NFL regular season. While Week 17 in season long fantasy leagues is an absolute “no-no” in my book, it is one of my favorite weeks of the NFL season for DFS. It is the most unpredictable…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 16

For a week where there are 11 divisional games and only three games with a favorite of a touchdown or more, there were still quite a few increased opportunities that presented themselves this week. Week 16 is spread out over four different days…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 15

Week 15 has an odd feel to it between cold weather games, divisional games and an inordinate number of games with a low Vegas total. All of this makes finding increased opportunities difficult and could make this a low scoring week in fantasy.…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 14

Week 13 went well with my Top Plays for the week finishing in first place out of 22 experts graded in our NFL Week 13 Expert Grading Recap article. I will look to try to build on that success in Week 14 with a full slate of 16 games as we have…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 13

I am flipping back to my typical Offensive Tendencies analysis this week after doing the “Hot Sheet” on a busy Thanksgiving week last week. The Hot Sheet did a good job of helping identify strong plays as I finished 8th in our NFL Expert…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 12

Due to time constraints with the Thanksgiving holiday, I am going with a different, abbreviated format for the “Offensive Tendencies” this week. It is a snapshot of a tool I created that I like to call the “Hot Sheet”. The charts below…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 11

What a difference a week makes. After last week where only three games had a favorite of more than four points, this week features eight games with favorites of at least six points. Bigger Vegas lines lead to more teams relying more on the run…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 10

Week 10 should be an interesting week with only three games that have a favorite of more than four points. Due to the tight lines finding significantly increased opportunities was a challenge this week but there are still some matchups that…

NFL Offensive Tendencies – Week 9

I had a few strong picks last week especially with my “sneaky shootout” call for the Jets/Browns game including Matt Forte. This week was a little harder to read without too many significant increased opportunities presenting themselves.…
