You may have noticed, but I didn't write the game-by-game this week. I've landed the new full-time job, and that starts in two weeks. So I've been trying to get ahead on baseball stuff, and I definitely won't be able to spend much time writing in the early weeks of having that job, so my NFL game-by-game writing season is over.
But the projections and tools are still up and running on the NFL Web App. Use the password found here if you don't know it already. There are detailed projections for betting, a DFS optimizer for DraftKings, the xFP model, and game-by-game preview pages with the line movement and the projections. And there's other stuff too. It's a pretty nice resource.
See some screenshots and explanations of the app in this post.
But let me give you the cash options in the projections for tomorrow.

The current optimal lineup:

- RB Bijan
- RB CMC
- WR London
- WR Meyers
- WR Jefferson
- TE Warren
- DST Dolphins
The two big Falcons against the Chiefs, and with Kenneth Walker possibly out, we'd have the most obvious play of the season with Emmet Johnson.
I'm not real into playing two of those Falcons against the Chiefs, since Atlanta just hasn't played very well.
The other game to really get into is Saints/Panthers. 48.5-point total. We haven't had the Saints on a main slate for awhile, so we need to remember how fast they play and how bad their defense is. Good game for fantasy points in that one.
