Welcome to week 12… Now sure how that happened, since it feels like I just publish a week 8 accuracy report!

Anyway, we’re nearing the finish line, before playoffs. This is the first week you might consider planning on D/STs to stash— if your league is competitive in that market, and if you’ve locked in your chances. If neither of this things is true, then don’t waste your bench space. You may need the near-term wins more!

One note about Survivor planning: unfortunately, the Bengals (and Patriots) are no longer good picks for week 12, which means we are left with risker alternatives than expected.

Looking back to Week 11: It was great for D/ST and QB predictions. And most notably, the betting lines returned an exceptional +50%, which just about makes up for that large loss in week 8. But remember to always temper expectations.
