Earlier this week I shared my top plays for this weeks Bet365 Sunday Redzone competition. This week I have two line-ups I want to run through, both with unconventional QB-WR stacks.
Line-up 1
First up is an Eagles stack with Carson Wentz and Terry McLaurin. Went hasn’t been great to start the season, but he has been throwing the ball a lot. I don’t think he’ll slow down this week against a Titans Defense tied for the league lead in passing TDs allowed.
I’ve chosen stack Wents with McLaurin this week despite him being behind Samuel in the pecking order. Jamar Dotson is out this week, so McLaurin should see an uptick in targets to give him a chance at a breakout game.
On the other side of the game I’ve taken both Robert Woods and Derrick Henry. Woods is the clear number one receiver for the Titans this week with Treylon Burks being injured. Henry had a slow start to the season but is starting to look like his old self again and should see plenty of opportunities against the Commanders.
I have rounded out the Wide Receivers with Christian Kirk and Mike Evans. Kirk has surprised with the Jaguars this season looking a lot closer to the player he has been paid as than many thought – Houston shouldn’t slow him down at all. Evans is a the lead receiver and red-zone threat for Tom Brady now Gronk has retired – a matchup with the Falcons is a smash spot.
My second running back is James Robinson who has excelled again for the Jaguars this season despite the pre-season Travis Ettiene hype. This week he gets the Texans league-worst run defense.
At tight end I’ve taken Gerald Everett. The Chargers will be without Keenan Allen again, which should leave some extra targets for Everett.
The Bucs defense round out the line-up. The Falcons offense hasn’t been good to start the season, a Bucs defense coming off a tough game against the Chiefs should thrive.
Line-up 2
Andy Dalton is in line for his second start of the season and is priced as the cheapest QB in the player pool this week. He might not set the world alight but he should be a good value play against the Seahawks. Chris Olave has been fantastic to start the season and with Michael Thomas out again his volume should drop this week.
On the Seahawks side, I’ve also added Will Dissly who has scored touchdowns in three or four games this season.
I’ve also gone for a big chunk of the Bills-Steelers game with Stefan Diggs, Diontae Johnson and the Bills defense. Diggs speaks for himself, he’s an elite receiver playing with one of the best QBs in the league. Johnson should see plenty of targets with the Steelers likely to be behind much of the game.
The Bills defense get to face Kenny Pickett in his first NFL start. He did look decent last week, but he,s definitely got a lot of turnover potential against a really good defense.
At running back I have gone for James Robinson again as well as Rhamondre Stevenson. The Patriots will be keen to run the ball with Bailey Zappe likely to start again at QB – fortunately they face an awful Lions run defense as well.
Finally, I have rounded up the Wide Receivers with Justin Jefferson who will once again be a threat for a big day against the Bears.
