TNF Showdown

Showdown – Danger Style

I play showdowns by avoiding chalk. It is a GGP play and is not targeting min cashes. We are going after take-downs, not split pots.
This game could see fireworks, even though GB had a great defensive showing last week. I’m also big on a few key players and perhaps a fade that will surprise you. You have to pick a game script to win single entry and play it out in your head. Washington wins in a shoot-out is how I am playing, and bucks the trend of terrible TNF games. 

Commanders don’t win without a big game on the back of Jayden Daniels, and if I play 10 lineups, he is in 9. I dislike their run game, so I’ll assume if a close TD is run in, it’s more likely to be a QB keeper: more likely short yardage slants, or quick hits to Deebo. I like Terry fine and see the arguments for him, but I really like Kraft on the other side to put up similar final numbers and save you a few bucks. If you need to get a kicker in, I prefer WSH as I expect them to lead and settle for a field goal with a lack of short-yardage backs. I am completely out on Jordan Love, as I think Jacobs is the guy tonight. If I want Daniels, Deebo, and Jacobs, I don’t have enough punt plays to get Love in as well. I already mentioned I like Kraft, as I’m hesitant to pick a GB wideout until we see their corps settle in. If I had to choose, Doubs as a salary saver would be the guy. He’s only a few more bucks than Wicks and is way more regularly involved. I really only like Chris Brooks in the punt section, with Bates as a plan if you think Ertz gets knocked out.

IN– Jayden Daniels, Josh Jacobs, Deebo Samuel, Tucker Kraft
Considered– Terry McClaurin, Zach Ertz, Matt Gay
Long Shots– Noah Brown, Brandon McManus
Punts– Chris Brooks, Jake Bates
Fades– Jordan Love, Both Defenses, All WSH RBs
