Bottom of the Barrel Week 10 Quarterbacks NFL DFS Breakdown

Josh Allen BUF vs. MIN(23^rd)(FD-$9,200)(DK-$8,600)(Y!-$41)

At the time of this publication Bills quarterback Josh Allen has been evaluated for an elbow injury to the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL). From all the news I have read it looks as though Allen may not miss much game action, if at all. In the baseball world this would be a bad news surgery full year off type of issue. However, it looks like Josh might not miss anytime! Buffalo has already had their bye week, meaning they will play every week for the rest of the season. Next up in Week 10 is a battle against the Vikings! Which, as wild as it sounds, should have massive playoff implications! Cream of the NFC crop against the cream of the AFC crop!

Kirk Cousins MIN @ BUF(3^rd)(FD-$7,300)(DK-$6,000)(Y!-$28)

Like it or not Kirk and the Vikings are playing very well! Wearing all those expensive chains and shades on the team plane has been fun! That should all stop, briefly, Sunday in Buffalo. Who would’ve thought that in Week 10 of the NFL season Minnesota playing the Bills was going to be a premier match-up? Not me, but it was great to see Kirk get the ball to Justin Jefferson for a touchdown! My fingers are crossed that this will open the flood gates for them, and we some some magic fly in Buffalo. Bill’s defense is only allowing, on average, 14.8 points a game. The passing attempts and yardage will be there for Kirk. The difference here, and in our DFS lines, will be the space between a second touchdown pass or a third.

Jared Goff DET @ CHI(17^th)(FD-$7,200)(DK-$5,500)(Y!-$25)

All eyes will be on Justin Fields in this one. Rightfully so but, it is also a prime opportunity to sneak one in with Jared Goff. Over the course of his career Goff has played against the Bears six times. Some mixed results but has thrown at least 2 touchdowns against them the last three matchups. I don’t think passing yardage will be an issue. I don’t think game flow will be an issue. Jared Goff has been presentable and acceptable in the red zone this year. Not a homerun hitting move here but 260 yards with a pair of touchdowns is what we can expect!

Jacoby Brissett CLE @ MIA(32^nd)(FD-$7,000)(DK-$5,400)(Y!-$24)

Classic case of loving the opposing team defense rather than the actual QB. Look, I do like Jacoby, but Miami has covered the number in seven of their last 10 games at home. Dolphins face off against a Cleveland Browns defense that is allowing, on average, 24.9 points per game. We all know Tua, Hill, and Waddle can hang points in a hurry. That’s why I am fully expecting the Browns to keep pace, for a bit. It’s a daily fantasy sports, all we need is a little bit! I am keeping a close eye on Jacoby here for some rushing upside. In the air let’s settle on 20 completions for 230 yards. It’s a wild idea but if Jacoby is accountable for three touchdowns we are in the money!

Trevor Lawrence JAX @ KC(24^th)(FD-$7,000)(DK-$5,400)(Y!-$27)

Now we are talking! Trevor has now thrown a touchdown pass in seven of nine games this year! Last week against the Raiders he was a running fool! His 53 yards on the ground were a season-high! The Jags are by no means as complete as the Chiefs, but I do see some holes. From a betting perspective, which I find important, the over has cashed in each of Jacksonville’s last six games played on the road. Kansas City is scoring, on average, 30.4 points a game which is tops in the league. However, they are also giving up around 23.6 points a game. That is the hole! I can make a case for about 275 all-purpose yards from Lawrence along with three total touchdowns.

Matthew Stafford LAR vs. ARZ(28^th)(FD-$6,700)(DK-$5,600)(Y!-$23)

I spent some time thinking about this Stafford blurb. With it being a daily fantasy sports article, I thought it best to leave any personal feelings aside! The Rams are a perplexing team through nine games. Stafford looked off and uncomfortable while trying to connect with his wide receivers last week. He was also missing guys while airmailing deep balls. The toss it up and pray Stafford is a scary thing. Trust me, I have seen it too many times. Yet, the supporting cast is different. All the disconnected passes, broken plays, and bad passes will be fine. It is not the end of the world, and I am willing to bet on a big rebound here from Matthew and the Rams. The sweet defensive match-up is there. The smarts from a guy like Sean McVay is to be trusted. I have Stafford at 23 competitions, 270 yards, and two touchdowns. Now or never to be honest. When the chips are down, I trust Matthew Stafford.
