Week one is in the books and it went pretty well overall. I crushed all my cash games on Draft Kings and was in the positive on Fan Duel. Nothing great happened in DFS, but any week where you do not lose is fantastic. I have really been working on my cash games and it felt great to sweep those. My best Fan Duel lineup was a Foles/Westbrook stack that cashed in everything despite Foles getting hurt early. That was disappointing, but what can you do.
My cash game lineup was what I thought were the obvious plays of the week.
Brissett
Cook
CMC
Thielen
Godwin
Westbrook
Henry
Carson
Seattle
That combination above was good for 180.30 Draft Kings points and as I stated a sweep of all my cash. I wish I had played more cash, ha. I thought CMC was the best running back play of the week and only guy worth paying up for. I was correct on that call. I almost played Hilton over Thielen, but I was leery of stacking up in my cash lineup, just in case it went very bad for the Colts.
In terms of my wagers, things went extremely well. (Record updated below) The computer went 11-5 ATS and I did even better. Thanks to Houston last night, I am a nice 7-1 on teasers and parlays this year in football. I thought the half time over in the first game was a joke and it came in early in the fourth quarter.

Overall, this was a successful week one. Positive on both major sites in terms of DFS and made money betting games. We are on to week two where we look to keep picking winners.
