RMF CLASSIC – REIGNMAKER – FIELD PASS SPECIAL [1ST QUALIFIES FOR $1M WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!] | RAIN MAKER
The Philadelphia Eagles got off to a great start against the Detroit Lions and never looked back. Dan Campbell and co. made it close in the 4th quarter, bringing it back to a 3-point game when the Eagles’ lead was by double digits at one point. Still, the team GrindersCal stacked this contest for their QB and RB positions. Their legendary #3 Jalen Hurts short and legendary #7 D’Andre Swift accounted for 40% of their total fantasy points. Hurts and Swift were near the top in fantasy points at their respective positions Sunday. The biggest point earner goes to the Reignmaker #1 Justin Jefferson card. He, Hurts and Swift were all rated at 12.5%. Jefferson torched the Packers’ secondary for 42.4 fantasy points.
Winner – Username: GrindersCal, Fantasy Points: 134.72, Best Card: Justin Jefferson (Reignmaker #1)
RMF CLASSIC – RARE – FIELD PASS SPECIAL [1ST QUALIFIES FOR $1M WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!] | RARELY
The beauty of djets’ winning lineup is their RBs. They had Jonathan Taylor Rare #178 and Saquon Barkley Rare #151. 44% of their total fantasy points came from the backfield, and Taylor torched the Texans’ defense for 175 yards from scrimmage. He is a bell cow back and his ceiling is RB1 overall if he stays healthy.
Winner – Username: djets, Fantasy Points: 151.72, Best Card: Michael Pittman (Rare #49)

RMF CLASSIC – ELITE – FIELD PASS SPECIAL [1ST QUALIFIES FOR $1M WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!] | ELITE
Like Griderscal in the Reignmaker Field Pass Special contest, bernthjs used the Eagles/Lions deck, but used Amon Ra St. Brown Elite #35, which netted him 20.40 fantasy points. Saquon Barkley Rare #290 was 7.1% rated at the RB position, but one of the better players on their team was their short Davante Adams Elite #43, who collected 10 receptions and 141 yards for 33.10 points. Adams led the league in field goal percentage last week at 49%, which should continue through the season.
Winner – Username: bernthjs, Fantasy Score: 143.12, Best Card: AJ Brown (Elite #22)
RMF CLASSIC – LEGENDARY – FIELD PASS SPECIAL [1ST QUALIFIES FOR $1M WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!] | LEGENDARY
Saquon Barkley is back! The New York Giants superstar led all RBs on Sunday with 36.4 fantasy points and helped the tight end to victory. Michael Florio (@MichaelFrioFlo) tweeted out the Week 1 Target share leaders, and Barkley finished eighth. He was also the only RB to make the top 10. Their legendary #6 Barkley card should hold its value throughout the season, especially next week when the Giants face the Carolina Panthers, who gave up a big day to Nick Chubb and Kareem Jakt this week 1.
Winner – Username: hardeights, Fantasy Score: 128.02, Best Card: Justin Jefferson (Legendary # 5)
Now let’s take a look at one Featured Star contest in each tier:
RMF CLASSIC – CORE – FROM THE STAR [WIN RARE + CORE KYLER MURRAY, QB1 PACKS] | CORE
User krough005 appreciated the overtime in the Bengals/Steelers game; it allowed their Joe Burrow Core #577 and Ja’Marr Chase Core #349 to record 58.12 points (40% of total points). Even though Burrow turned the ball over five times, they were still able to get enough out of their QB, who was only set at 3.8%. Kareem Hunt Core #143 stole the show in Cleveland, chasing two total touchdowns and 23 fantasy points. An all-around solid lineup that also featured Saquon Barkley Core #217 and AJ Brown Core #6.
RMF CLASSIC – RARE – FROM THE STAR [WIN ELITE + RARE KEENAN ALLEN, SKILL STARTER PACKS] | RARELY
Do you think Michael Pittman Jr. like having matt ryan under center this year? He should. Last weekend, Pittman Jr. connected. and Ryan combined for nine receptions and 121 yards. Franzmithanz will take home Keenan Allen player card with Pittman Jr. #246 Rare card. It also helps when four of your five players have either a rushing or receiving touchdown.
Winner – Username: Franzmithanz, Fantasy Score: 127.62, Best Card: Jonathan Taylor (Rare #212)
RMF SHOWDOWN – ELITE – FROM THE STARS [WIN LEGENDARY + ELITE TOM BRADY, QB1 PACKS] (BUF VS LAR) | ELITE
It’s serendipitous AZ3otrope win from his QB play in the Tom Brady Featured Star contest. With a GOAT card up for grabs, AZ3otropic played both QBs in the Buffalo Bills-Los Angeles Rams game. Still, this was the Josh Allen show, who put up four total touchdowns in the season opener.
Winner – Username: AZ3otrope, Fantasy Score: 107.22, Best Card: Josh Allen (ELITE #20)
RMF CLASSIC – LEGENDARY – FROM THE STARS [WIN REIGNMAKER JAVONTE WILLIAMS, SKILL STARTER PACKS] | LEGENDARY
Javonte Williams is a rising star, and Amarengo is the proud owner of the Williams Reignmaker card. Travis Kelce couldn’t be contained and led all TEs with 121 receiving yards and one score. The AFC West divisional games should be high scoring and having a Travis Kelce Elite #7 and a Javonte Williams Reignmaker should be valuable as the season progresses.
Winner – Username: Amarengo, Fantasy Score: 96.70, Best Card: AJ Brown (legendary #3)
