Week four was very good for me.
Every single lineup I made on both sites cashed. (I run all of my lineups in the Milly Maker on each site) My cash games were very strong as well. No major scores, but solid production and made a very nice return on investment. If one or two things breaks slightly, a massive week is close. Last week, playing Ridley over Julio would have been the difference. This week a friend suggested Taylor Gabriel and I dismissed the play as too thin. WELP. As I said cash games were very good. Adam Levitan discussed in his Monday article how he played Barkley over Gordon at his flex. Oddly, I had the exact same lineup as him in cash except I played Gordon over Barkley. That was a 13-point difference and why I won all my cash games.

Monday-Thursday Slate
This is a very strange slate coming up tonight. The Colts are injured and now travel on the road for s short week. It seems TY Hilton will be out due to timing alone. Nyheim Hines though seems to have grabbed control as the passing down back for the Colts and he is very cheap in this slate. I realize Marlon Mack could come back, or they could rest him Thursday and then give him another ten more days to get healthy. Tonight seems to be a spot where Denver offers tremendous value. Everyone scores on the Chiefs and the price is right for Case Keenum. My advice is to stack up Keenum with Sanders and/or Thomas. Load up at WR and play some cheap RB’s. I see only two defenses in play, Denver and New England. Hopefully, that gives you a nice baseline to try and win some money on this short slate.
