Week 17 is upon us, and is it just me or has the season flown by? A few of our early games will feature rain, so if you are playing DFS, that may impact players that have locked up playoff spots. Rain may cause them to sit, or get pulled early, as not to get hurt. Best advice if you are heavily stacked in a game with rain in the forecast, please check the radar just before kickoff. Thank you for the opportunity to bring the forecasts to you all each week, and I hope that it helped you avoid a few pitfalls.
