We may have one fewer game on the schedule, but Week 4 still has a nice amount of games to target. Specifically, we have one matchup that both of us like for a full-game stack.
A Note from Mario: Last week’s picks were a little better – 3-2 – although not exactly profitable. I should have had more conviction with the Raiders and Vikings. Regardless, onto Week 4! As always, I’ll list my personal favorite picks, but please do your research, and play responsibly.
In the world of daily fantasy roster construction, ‘stacking’ players from the same team can often lead to big results. In this column of games to target in Week 4, Luke and Mario will give their thoughts on a few games that are worth watching for fantasy purposes, and whether they like the value or feel the game is getting too much attention.
Luke’s Top Games to Watch
Los Angeles Chargers at Miami Dolphins
Even with our concerns for the Chargers traveling across the country, it seems hard to imagine them not putting up points against this Dolphins defense that has allowed between 31-59 points in their three games. Austin Ekeler seems like a must-play this week now that the Chargers know they have Melvin Gordon back in the fold. Ekeler will still have a role in the offense moving forward, but it won’t be nearly as large, so they might as well use him heavily this week. The Dolphins’ offense is producing at historically poor rates as they’ve only managed to score 16 points through three games. As crazy as it sounds, their offense was much better last week, and if it had not been for a few mistake, they could have easily put up at least 10 more points than they did. They are bound to have a good game eventually, and this could be their week.
