With three Turkey Day games this week I have put together a short DFS primer for those games. Don’t worry because we will still have the full Daily Domination article available this Friday for all of this weekend’s games. Consider this an extra helping of helping you win some money while sleeping off that tryptophan induced coma.
Quarterback
Turkey Meat Strategy – Just find a partner who likes the type of meat you don’t like. They do say opposites attract. Also never cut the turkey immediately after removing it from the oven let it rest for at least half an hour.

Running Back
Side Dish Strategy – Make sure you save adequate plate room for Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce. The ridges provide some grip but the jelly can still slide around and I prefer when it stays out of the gravy.
