What is up everybody? Welcome to the week five DFSF in DFS MVP podcast. I'm your host, T.J. Hernandez, the director of DFS at 444.com. As always, with my trustee, co-host, Mr. John Daigle. This is episode 226. Dangle. What's up, buddy?

Doing well, fresh off a good week for those that joined us in the Discord

conversation Sunday morning.

Lots of headbutting on wanting to fade Bill's Ravens for everyone, which I know was

scary, but I've remained adamant that that was the way we should go and talked a lot about chargers on slot.

The slate still came down to whether or not, at least winning, it came down to whether or not you played T.G. Hawkinson,

but very easily last week to get in the green with the right pieces, even if you didn't have Hawkinson.

Yeah, and we were on the right track on a couple of things. Like even if you didn't like hawkinson yeah and we were on the right track on a couple things um

like even if you didn't like smash with hawk we we we did note that even though fading buffalo

was a scary spot and i played buffalo in my main account but i obviously played a bunch of other

line before i didn't have them we did note that like the way the weak environment was set up that if that Buffalo game didn't hit, that there was a really good chance because all the other games were projected for low scores that if one game goes off, it does make sense to like to have an onsla.

That's if we were on the Chargers, it was obviously the Lions and every week there's not going to be a game that goes for 94 points or whatever.

But understanding the environment of the week was really important last week.

And the winners of tournaments, as you mentioned in your Wednesday morning column,

they really played all the chalk, just tacked on 7% Gino Smith to it.

And that was like the unique diversification that you needed really last week.

So yeah, a week that all the chalk hit.

No big deal considering that some players that we discussed at lower ownership still went off.

But last week was really about making sure you had every piece right.

There was no room for mistakes.

This slate's really interesting because it's ugly. It's terrible. And I think there are definitely some unique ways. There are some high octane offenses, but there are also ways to get off of those offenses. So we'll talk about it as we go along. Yeah, we will definitely get into all those nuances. Before we do get into everything, we mentioned the Discord on Sunday morning if you haven't had access to that yet.
