Christopher Bell Up Against it at Charlotte

The time is now for Christopher Bell. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver stands tenth with the Charlotte race looming. For Bell, the good news is he can win road races (Daytona Road). There is plenty of bad news though. Bell is 28 points out from advancing. That is a lot to make up in one […]

Joey Logano Has Spotlight on Him This Sunday at Charlotte

Joey Logano needs a good result on Sunday at Charlotte. He did finish second on the ROVAL last year without leading a single lap. The Team Penske driver found himself near the front at the end of the race. He could do so again on Sunday afternoon. Logano has three top-ten finishes in the three […]

Brad Keselowski Not Recommended for Charlotte

Brad Keselowski and road courses do not mix. Add in the fact that this is the Charlotte ROVAL and that is, even more, the reason to look the other way. Keselowski even said as such before "The Chase" started. The strange thing is in 2019, the Team Penske driver found himself in the top five […]

Denny Hamlin Has No Worries at Charlotte

Denny Hamlin has little to worry about as the Charlotte ROVAL beckons on Sunday. He has already advanced to the Round Of 8. The results are not so good for the Joe Gibbs Racing driver on this course anyway. He may start from the pole but the likelihood of him fading back is high. The […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks for 10/3 - PrizePicks

Hello once again everyone!  We hit the Talladega Superspeedway one last time from Talladega Motor Speedway this week and another edition of NASCAR DFS on PrizePicks. Now, that means our new friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: YellaWood 500 - Monkey Knife Fight

Sunday afternoon features the fifth race of the chase at Talladega. The YellaWood 500 is raced on the 2.66-mile superspeedway. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for their position (20 for 1st place, 19 for 2nd place, 18 […]

Aric Almirola Is One To Watch At Talladega

Aric Almirola, other than a 2020 crash, has been excellent at Talladega with a slew of top-10 results. The Stewart-Haas racing driver even won the 2018 fall race when he led the one lap that counted -- the final one. At one point, the No. 10 car finished in the top 10 eight consecutive times. […]

Bubba Wallace Slightly Intriguing At Talladega

Bubba Wallace has raced pretty well even with some bad luck at Talladega. Over the last two races, Wallace has led a combined 26 laps. He even racked up some stage points for his new team as well. The 23XI Racing driver should have better results next year. That is the hope. This year is […]

Daniel Suarez A Questionable Choice At Talladega

Daniel Suarez has not finished in the top 10 when it comes to the fall race at Talladega. He has some decent top-20 results, though. That is good for the Trackhouse Racing driver, but is that good enough for DFS? Suarez starts 18th on Sunday, and his best place differential on the superspeedway is plus-nine […]

Chase Briscoe A Dicey Option At Talladega

One gets the feeling that Chase Briscoe's 11th-place finish in the spring at Talladega may have been more a product of attrition than anything else. It will be interesting to see how the Stewart-Haas Racing driver comes out on Sunday. He starts 17th, and it has not been the greatest of seasons for Briscoe. He […]

Austin Dillon On A Good Run At Talladega

There is a risk every time Austin Dillon or any driver races at Talladega. However, five of the last six races have been mostly good for the Richard Childress Racing driver. Four top-15 results to boot have some wondering what Dillon can do starting from the 16th spot on Sunday. The No. 3 car has […]

Matt DiBenedetto Just Has To Drive At Talladega

At this point, all Matt DiBenedetto can do is just drive his race car. His crew chief is moving on at the end of the season. He does not have a ride for next year as of press time. All he can do is just go for it. The last two races at Talladega have […]

Kurt Busch May Be A Risk Again At Talladega

It is the fall race at Talladega that has befuddled Kurt Busch of late. The last four races here have seen the elder Busch finish outside of the top 10 with two straight DNFs. Here is the weird part: It seemed like he had it figured out in 2018. Busch led 108 of the 193 […]

Tyler Reddick Has Been Lucky And Pretty Good At Talladega

Tyler Reddick has managed to avoid crashes in three straight races at Talladega. As a result, he has two seventh-place finishes and a 20th. The 13th position is the highest the Richard Childress Racing driver has started too. During the Spring race, he was in the top five before a late drop in speed cost […]

Christopher Bell On The Ropes At Talladega

Christopher Bell has raced at Talladega just three times at the top level of NASCAR. His last one was a 17th for Joe Gibbs Racing where he started sixth. That was the key. He avoided the wrecks and drove his race. Now, will that be enough with him on the outside looking in this playoff […]

Alex Bowman Needs Good Result At Talladega

After finishing 22nd at Las Vegas last week, Alex Bowman needs a better effort at Talladega this week. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has his work cut out for him, as the superspeedway has been a mixed bag for him. He starts 11th on Sunday and does have three top-10s in his last seven races […]

William Byron A Dark-Horse Candidate At Talladega

William Byron has run very well at Talladega during his last three times at the track. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver finished 11th, 4th, and 2nd. He has managed to keep track position while avoiding problems. Byron has even led ten or more laps in four of his seven appearances. The No. 24 car has […]

Kevin Harvick Has Big Test At Talladega

Kevin Harvick has four straight top-10 results to keep him in the playoffs. He did finish fourth at Talladega earlier this year. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has found the extra speed that had alluded him during most of the 2021 season. Now, can he keep this momentum going? Harvick starts ninth on Sunday. Aside from […]

Joey Logano Could Be A Risk At Talladega

Joey Logano can lead laps at Talladega, but the question lately is can he finish? He has crashed out of consecutive races at the 2.66-mile track. However, he does have three wins since 2015, including two straight fall checkered flags (2015 and 2016). Logano also won the spring edition in 2018. He has led 10 […]

Brad Keselowski Expected To Thrive At Talladega

Brad Keselowski has had an interesting run of results the past four-plus seasons at Talladega. He has two wins -- the 2017 Fall race and this year's Spring event. However, the middle has seen him finish outside the top ten each time. That includes several crashes as well. The Team Penske car is the car […]

Martin Truex Jr. Not Recommended At Talladega

Martin Truex Jr. may be looking ahead to the Charlotte ROVAL at this point. Given how poorly Talladega has treated the Joe Gibbs Racing driver, one would understand. Truex Jr. has never finished better than fifth on the track and has not had a top ten since 2015. That includes ten consecutive outside the top-20 […]

Kyle Larson May Have Another Rough Time At Talladega

Kyle Larson never got up to full speed at Talladega in the spring. A piece of metal was stuck in the manifold near his engine. It eventually caused the engine to blow, and Larson had to retire after just three laps. Things have not gone well for the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver at the 2.66-mile […]

Ryan Blaney A Potential Favorite At Talladega

Ryan Blaney is the last Team Penske driver to win at Talladega during the fall. That happened in 2019 when he led 35 laps. Overall, Team Penske has won nine of the last 14 races at the superspeedway. Blaney followed up the fall 2019 win with a spring 2020 repeat when he led 63 laps. […]

Chase Elliott Is A Contender At Talladega

Chase Elliott has had some mixed results at Talladega. However, he did win there one in 2019 and even had an eighth at the Fall race. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has had his share of crashes and near-crashes also. There were three DNF's in all including last Spring's race. The No. 9 car was […]

Kyle Busch May Not Have Good Day At Talladega

Kyle Busch and the No. 18 M&M car will have their hands full with Talladega on Sunday afternoon. The last five Fall races have been unkind to the Joe Gibbs Racing driver. That includes two crashes, pit violations, and poor decisions. The results have been all outside the top-10. His best result in the Fall […]

Denny Hamlin Awarded Pole Position At Talladega

Denny Hamlin, behind his two wins in four playoff races, was awarded the pole at Talladega on Sunday. His Fall race record is rather good as well. Consider the fact, the No. 11 car has finished no worse than sixth during the second Talladega race since 2017. That includes last year's win where he led […]

Greyson Sigg Not Recommended At Sanderson Farms

Greyson Sigg could not land balls on the green well at the Fortinet Championship. There were a few too many negatives in his golf game. That bodes poorly for this week's Sanderson Farms Championship. Also, his ability to score low is hampered by the smaller and tricky greens. Sigg even probably needs 8-12 yards average […]

Lanto Griffin May Not Be A Great Option At Jackson C.C.

Lanto Griffin hit so many errant shots last time out. He gets to try to atone for the 75 on Sunday at the Fortinet Championship. However, there were just too many chances squandered. His opening round 73 gets forgotten. His approaches and strokes-gained putting are just inside the top 40 in 2021, however. It boils […]

Brendan Steele Too Risky For C.C. Of Jackson

Brendan Steele had a horrendous weekend getting balls on the green at the Fortinet Championship. His -0.65 strokes gained were among the worst for golfers. The 2021 seasons saw Steele struggle with developing those one or two plus-level skills essential for contending in tournaments. This week, things do not bode well either. Steele ranked 142nd […]

Harry Higgs A Questionable Option For Sanderson Farms

Harry Higgs could not put things together at the Fortinet Championship. That included missing the cut which was a bit of a surprise. The Camden, New Jersey native could not make putts at the tournament. One under par just was not cutting it when so many golfers were converting chances left and right. Higgs will […]
