Week 4 is here! With that comes another Sunday of “DFS Stacks and Strategy.” Now that we are about a quarter into the season, patterns unfold before us and allow us to research the correct plays each week. So let’s break down some different stacks you should look at for your lineups this week.

Josh Allen+ Stefon Diggs + Bills D/ST (QB+WR+D/ST)
Looking through the Sunday slate, I can’t find a better combination than Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs. The Ravens have allowed 458 yards per game this season. This statistic is the worst in the NFL. Both players have been extraordinary this season for your DFS lineups; even though you will have to pay up for them, getting an average per game production on this level into your lineup is rare. Here is the breakdown of the average per game for both players:

Josh Allen+ Stefon Diggs + Bills D/ST (QB+WR+D/ST)
Looking through the Sunday slate, I can’t find a better combination than Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs. The Ravens have allowed 458 yards per game this season. This statistic is the worst in the NFL. Both players have been extraordinary this season for your DFS lineups; even though you will have to pay up for them, getting an average per game production on this level into your lineup is rare. Here is the breakdown of the average per game for both players:
Josh Allen: 44 attempts, 31 completions, 338 yards, three touchdowns
Stefon Diggs: 11 targets, nine receptions, 114 yards, 1.3 touchdowns
As for the defensive play, The Bills love to run zone coverage most of the game. Lamar Jackson struggles against the zone with a 50 QBR and his two interceptions against this coverage. This defensive play lines up more for a GPP lineup since the field should have low rostership due to the OU line set by Vegas.
Miles Sanders + Eagles D/ST (RB+D/ST )
This game/selection centers around the weather for this game. As a Philadelphia resident, we expect a 60% chance of rain tied in with 11-14mph wind with gusts up to 30 mph. So this could become a defensive battle and a run game, which we know from last year the Eagles can play into that narrative.
With Boston Scott most likely out this week, Miles Sanders could see more play in this game. Sanders is already averaging 15 rushing attempts and two targets per game. Expect a slight bump to allow him near 20 touches this Sunday.
Aaron Rodgers + Robert Tonyan (QB+TE)
Heading into this game with the New England Patriots, the Packers are still struggling at the wide receiver position. However, for this game, they should be fine leaning on the combination of Rodgers and Tonyan. Last week Tonyan recorded seven targets. This week, he heads into a matchup against the Patriots, who have allowed 18.4 PPG to tight ends in fantasy. On top of a great matchup, Tonyan lands in the top five for an average yard of separation of 4.6 yards. Tonyan should flourish with this perfect storm of analytics combining in his favor.
Creating a stack with Rodgers is ideal for your lineups as the Patriots have allowed the seventh most fantasy points to the QB position while being tied for third-most touchdowns allowed to the QB position. Both players should have a chance to 3x their salary and help your lineups reach their max potential.
Zach Wilson + Elijah Moore (QB+WR)
With the news of Zach Wilson returning to face the Pittsburgh Steelers this week, we need to rethink how the Jets’ offense will perform. Without Joe Flacco, the running back’s target share should diminish. Instead, those targets should end up in the wide receiver core. This target change is where Elijah Moore enters and has a chance to thrive. In 2021, Moore’s target per route run (TPRR) was at 25.8% in the games that Wilson was the quarterback for the Jets. With the cheaper pricing surrounding these two players, this stack can help you reallocate salary elsewhere and provide points to your fantasy lineup.
