ArticleFanDuel GPP Guide: Week 1September 12, 2026

From the article

Cincinnati against Tampa Bay has the highest total on the board at 50.5 and real shootout potential, which is worth chasing in tournaments. The field is on the Bengals at roughly the rate the optimal lineups are, so Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Chase Brown are fair plays rather than leverage plays
