Week 15 gives us our first Saturday NFL action of the year. Unfortunately, one of the games requires careful monitoring for COVID-19 news, as many players on the Browns and their head coach Kevin Stefanski has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. As a result, the line shifted from opening with the Browns favored by six points to the Raiders favored by 1.5 points. In addition, the game’s total has plummeted from 42.5 points to 38.5 points. Nevertheless, this will be a fun addition to the week of NFL daily fantasy action, and I analyze each game below. Finally, remember that customary golden rules in daily fantasy should be thrown out the window on a two-game slate, such as never using two running backs from the same game or a defense against the opposing running back. It’s paramount to open your mind to roster builds that would be unusual on a full slate.
