Week 11 DFS Picks: Best Game and Team Stacks

Every week, I will go through the players I am targeting to play in DFS for all games, tournaments, and game stacks.

The idea is that this will paint a clearer picture of framing lineups.

One of my favorite ways to play DFS from a tournament standpoint is small-field, single-entry to five-max games with fields of 5K or smaller.

Both sites even offer these types of games with fewer than 100 entries (albeit at a higher cost of entry) if you want to go after a really small field.

In these contests, my approach is to go with full-game stacks.

You will likely lose a lot of weeks, but if you get the game right, you will gain a significant advantage.

Just cashing in on one of these over an 18-week season can make your entire year.

When doing these, I want to aggressively build around games that have a wider range of outcomes.

Still, with the reduced number of entries, you can also eat some chalky game stacks because we are going further in the overall game stack than our opponents likely will.

This is the spot where you will find some missing names from the core and tournament play sections.

Just because a player is not mentioned in those two pieces does not mean I will have zero exposure to them.

These are the games I am circling for those tournaments in Week 11, but you can also tie these games into your stacks for other tournaments.

I will analyze the player selections and game writeups, but please refer to the Week 11 Worksheet for a detailed breakdown of the players and games.

Bengals at Steelers

If the Bengals are on a slate, we have long established them as a target for offensive production.

The Bengals have allowed 77 more points than their opponent's implied team total, the most in the league.

The next-closest team (Cowboys) has allowed 53.5 points over expectation.

Cincinnati has allowed at least 24 points in 8 straight games, the longest active streak in the league and one short of their franchise record over the 1998 and 1999 seasons.

Since Joe Flacco joined the team, we have established confidence in their offense's ability to push back and create game environments we want to attack.

The Bengals lead the NFL in offensive EPA since acquiring Flacco (56.3).

With Cincinnati as road underdogs, playing through Flacco, Ja’Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins with Jaylen Warren on the other side is as clean as it gets.

Chase Brown and Darnell Washington also carry appeal as options here.
