Week 12 Recap: Just one of those weeks where it didn’t work. FanDuel had dropped their weekly specials on Saturday so the rest of the plays that were played in the Discord were as follows:

Mike Evans +4900 (Went for 3/16 on 5 targets while Rob Gronkowski had the second-most yards on the day).
Tee Higgins +5000 (Went 6/114 and had a legit chance to hit it if the game script didn’t push this to a complete run-heavy game plan. Finished with the third-most receiving yards).
Marquise Brown +5500 (8/51 on 10 targets)
Chase Claypool +6000 (3/82 on 8 targets)
DeVonta Smith +4900 (2/22 on 4 targets)

Joe Burrow never stood a chance in the weekly special with the score 31-3 at the half. Joe Mixon carried the ball 28 times, while Burrow attempted only 24 passes.

Deebo Samuel was used as an RB and only caught one ball for 12 yards. He’s going to be a tough one to bet on each week if that trend continues when he's healthy.

Javonte Williams racked up 111 scrimmage yards, but 57 of those were through the air. Melvin Gordon also racked up 83 yards on the ground as the RBs piled on 137 rushing yards.

Rhamondre Stevenson didn’t see a workload increase with only nine rushing attempts. He’s likely a fade until he gets the starting job.
