DraftKings is back with another millionaire contest this Sunday, and despite the Thanksgiving and Black Friday games, we still have a 10-game slate to choose from. Below are my four favorite stacking options for this Sunday.

4. Joe Burrow ($7,000)/ Ja’Marr Chase ($8,600), Steelers at Bengals
The only reason these two are this low on this list is because of the matchup. Pittsburgh gives up the least FPTS to opposing quarterbacks and the seventh least to opposing receivers. However, regardless of the matchup, these two have earned a spot on this list. Chase leads all receivers in FPTS this season (260.7) and is a full 48.1 FPTS ahead of second-placed Amon-Ra St. Brown.
As for his quarterback, Burrow is not necessarily known as one of the better fantasy options at the position, but this year he has put that theory to bed. He has recorded the second most FPTS at his position, only trailing Lamar Jackson. These two have been way too productive not to be in consideration for your lineups this Sunday.
3. Sam Darnold ($5,900)/ Justin Jefferson ($8,100), Cardinals at Vikings
The last three weeks for this duo have been rough, as Jefferson has had no touchdowns and a high of 81 receiving yards. It was the other star receiver for Minnesota who had a big game last week, as Jordan Addison went for 162 yards and a score. However, this feels like the perfect week for these two to get back on track. Jefferson is too good not to be force-fed the ball, and I think that’s exactly what Darnold will try to do on Sunday.
The matchup is an average one, as Arizona ranks 16th against opposing receivers and 10th against opposing quarterbacks. Jefferson is still the best player on the field most Sundays and expect him to remind everyone who he is in this one.
2. C.J. Stroud ($6,400)/ Nico Collins ($7,900), Texans at Jaguars
You could make a strong argument that these two should be the top QB/WR stack this Sunday, but here they are as the second-best option. Collins found himself back in the endzone last weekend, finishing with five catches for 92 yards and a score. If it wasn’t for a 70+ yard touchdown overturned by a flag the week before, his numbers would look even more dominant since his return.
Collins is still seeing decent volume in his return, with 16 targets in his first two games back from injury. Collins and Stroud have an elite matchup, facing the Jaguars who give up the third most FPTS to opposing receivers and the most to opposing quarterbacks.
1. Jalen Hurts ($7,700)/A.J. Brown ($8,300), Eagles at Ravens
This duo has been cruising along under the radar all season, but they need to seriously be considered as your top QB/WR stack for this Sunday. Brown and Hurts have been dominant in fantasy scoring this season. Brown is averaging 18.5 FPTS per game, which is seventh-best among receivers.
As for Hurts, he has been the third-best fantasy quarterback, averaging 23 FPTS per game. If you want a consistent duo capable of putting up video game numbers, this is the stack for you. To put the cherry on top, they face the Ravens, who allow the second most FPTS to receivers and the third most to quarterbacks. This is the best matchup possible for a duo capable of shredding any defense.
