- Week 2's NFL Sunday slate features 13 afternoon games with no byes, making it one of the year's biggest DFS boards.
- Cowboys-Commanders and Bears-Vikings carry the slate's highest over/unders, making Prescott, Williams, Lamb, and Jefferson popular DFS targets.
- SportsLine's Mike McClure, who has over $2 million in career DFS winnings, locked in his top picks for the Sunday main slate using a model that simulates every snap.
- Bears tight end Colston Loveland is McClure's top pick at $5,000 (DraftKings) and $5,800 (FanDuel), positioned as a buy-low after recording zero countable stats in Chicago's 59-point Week 1 outburst despite running a team-high 25 routes.
- Bucs running back Bucky Irving ($6,100 DK, $7,900 FD) faces the Browns, who gave up 126 rushing yards in Week 1, with Tampa Bay an 8.5-point favorite likely to lean on the run game late to drain the clock.
Why it matters: With 13 games and zero byes on the Sunday slate, DFS players are hunting value in a crowded field where stars like Prescott and Jefferson will be heavily rostered. The Loveland angle — zero countable stats but 25 routes in a 59-point game — is the kind of buy-low leverage that separates tournament winners from the also-rans.
