As we enter Week 9 the NFL regular season crosses the halfway point already. This week seems like a pretty straight forward week of who are the top plays and games to utilize for your Cash game lineups. Be sure to make some pivots in your GPP lineups away from the chalk and don’t rely on last week’s results to dictate who you play and how you build your lineup for this week.

There is a lot of variables to monitor for NFL Week 8 with injuries and weather that could impact the DFS slate. The weather (winds primarily) could come into play in Green Bay, Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Buffalo. I don’t like to put too much emphasis on weather impacting fantasy production so there are still plenty of players and spots to use in those games but you might not want to stack up both teams passing games and instead pivot to the players that could benefit from windy conditions.

We have a retro Sunday Main slate thanks to the time switch between the Bucs/Raiders and Seahawks/Cardinals games which puts both games on the slate including the Sunday night matchup. I actually prefer this setup with the late-night hammer game also gives you a little more time to make any last-minute late swaps to maximize your potential positive outcomes. This week the Hot Sheet delivers the usual top DFS plays at each position along with a long list of Best Bets as I look to ride a hot streak.

It looks like it might be a tough week for NFL DFS in Week 6 with a couple of COVID scares to monitor and a lot of high-powered offenses not on the Sunday main slate due to byes or Monday night matchups. So, be sure to stay flexible and be willing to roster opportunity and talent over matchup in some cases.
