Josh Allen went absolutely nuclear in Week 2, throwing for three scores and running in two more during a high-scoring win over the Lions. That kind of early barrage of touchdowns is exactly why collectors are already ripping into those Yahoo Fantasy x Arena Club Slab Packs, hunting for the rarest “Chase Cards” worth up to 3-4x the pack price.

The QBs and RBs Lighting Up the League

It’s not just Allen making these slabs explode with value, though. Patrick Mahomes, man, he absolutely silenced any whispers about his knee surgery recovery. He just carved up defenses for a ridiculous 382 passing yards in Week 2, his highest single-game total since 2023! Talk about putting doubts to bed, right? And get this, Jared Goff, yeah, *that* Jared Goff, is somehow tied for the league lead with six touchdowns this season. He’s been on a torrid start, even with the Lions losing to the Bills in prime time in Week 2. That kind of early season consistency is straight-up wild.

And the running backs? Jonathan Taylor has been an absolute beast, one of the most productive backs in the NFL so far this season. He’s scored twice and surpassed 100 scrimmage yards in each of the Colts’ first two games. Christian McCaffrey, the perennial first-round fantasy pick, found the end zone twice in San Francisco’s blowout win over Miami in Week 2. He’s still waiting for that breakout yardage game, sure, but the TDs are there! Then there’s Jahmyr Gibbs, the Lions’ undisputed lead back, who was a big help for PPR leagues. He hauled in six passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 alone. The dude has been a Yahoo Fantasy x Arena Club featured player in back-to-back weeks.

Chasing the Hottest Cards Each Week

Over at wide receiver, Ja’Marr Chase went off for a pair of touchdown grabs in Week 2 after a quiet opening week, helping propel the Bengals to a 2-0 start. And CeeDee Lamb? He absolutely feasted on the Commanders’ defense in Dallas’ win. These are exactly the kind of top fantasy performers you’ll find as “Chase Cards” in these packs, covering the QB, RB, WR, and TE positions.

For those new to Arena Club, it is a new way of collecting. As the premier tech-powered marketplace and grading platform, Arena Club brings the physical experience of card collecting into the digital age. Users can purchase and open virtual packs of real, pre-graded cards (“slabs”), buy and sell on the marketplace and manage their card showrooms all in one place. These Yahoo Fantasy Slab Packs are loaded with graded NFL trading cards curated by Arena Club, each containing a graded card of an NFL player. Each Arena Club Slab Pack displays the full lineup of potential cards and the likelihood of ripping each.

You’ve got two tiers available: the Gold packs for $200 and the Silver packs for $70. They go on sale every week right at kickoff of the Thursday night game (like the Falcons-Packers game at 8:15 p.m. ET) and stay available until the conclusion of the Monday night game, or until they sell out. Head to ArenaClub.com or grab the Arena Club app and use the promo code YAHOO20 at checkout for a sweet 20% off your first slab pack or card purchase.
