Hopefully you stuck with us after a poor Week 1, because our Week 2 lineup knocked it out of the park. Last week’s squad scored 169.82 DraftKings points and easily finished in the money in cash games.

We’ll look to keep the ball rolling in Week 3. Here’s my optimal DraftKings lineup for Sunday’s slate:

QB: Andrew Luck, Indianapolis Colts ($7,600)

Luck was phenomenal in Week 1 before struggling against the Denver Broncos in Week 2. However, he still threw 40 passes last week, and nearly everyone struggles against the Broncos defense. The Chargers have ceded nearly 325 passing yards per game so far this season, and we have this game projected to be one of the highest-scoring outings of the weekend.
