As we roll into Week 13 of the NFL season, the DFS main slate on Sunday has a different look than what we have become accustom to this season. Instead of high Vegas totals and tight lines, we have very few high Vegas totals with just three games over 49 points. There is also a lot of blowout potential with five teams favored by more than a touchdown on the 11 games slate.

Now that we are past the quarter mark of the season, the NFL Hot Sheet has stopped feathering in last year’s status and completely converted over to using this year’s stats only. The Week 5 Sunday main slate is dwindling with two games getting postponed so far bringing the total down to 10 games. There are still plenty of options available to use in Cash game and GPP stacks, so see who I recommend in this week’s Hot Sheet!

If Week 2 was “injury week”, then I think Week 3 will be “I didn’t see that coming” week. The first two weeks have been a little bit too predictable with games that were projected to be high scoring shooting out and chalky DFS plays performing well, for the most part. Week 3 could be the week where the NFL reminds us that we don’t know everything.

It was a fun first week of NFL action and know we have some insights into what player’s roles will be and what coaches’ tendencies are. That said, we need to be careful to not put too much stock in the Week 1 results and hold onto some of our beliefs that we had coming into the season, even if they didn’t pan out opening weekend. So, with that let’s take a look at the Week 2 Hot Sheet with my top DFS plays, and Best Bets.
