Summary: <h2>The DegeNation Pod – NFL DFS Week 1 -Ep. 13, September 7, 2017.</h2> <p>Week 1 is upon us! It’s been awhile since the DFS DegeNation Podcast has been just the three amigos talking football, but Kevin Steele (<a href="https://twitter.com/FantasyWrath13">@FantasyWrath13</a>), Eliot Crist (<a href="https://twitter.com/EliotCrist">@EliotCrist</a>) & Ryan Williams (<a href="https://twitter.com/RyanAlexander_W">@RyanAlexander_W</a>) discussed their favorite (and least favorite) DFS Week 1 plays on the Main Slate (Sunday only) for Draftkings and FanDuel.</p> <p>The approach to the weeks will be simple – favorite plays by position. This is not your typical game-by-game breakdown like other podcasts in the industry. The DegeNation Podcast is an open conversation for the guys to discuss their research findings, who they’re targeting in Cash vs. GPP games (yes, Kevin Steele will play Cash games this year), and, let’s be honest, to talk smack on each other. <span style="font-weight: 400;">If you enjoy the DegeNation Pod, don’t forget to subscribe, rate and review on iTunes, stitcher or your podcasting software of choice.
