Trust me when I say I got my butt kicked in Draftkings DFS yesterday. If my guys didn’t under perform (Henry, Allen Robinson) they got hurt, (Barkley, Campbell) and to pour salt in the wound, I swapped my Dak/Zeke/Lamb/Ridley/Gage with a Ryan/Julio/Ridley/Cooper and let’s just say… I lost out on 5 figures.
But the saving grace is I earned most of my entries back with my Prize Picks account! Fading the NE skill-players besides Edelman and Cam and going all-in on the SEA passing game minus the TE spot paid out handsomely.
As I have moved on from Sunday, so should you! It’s Monday Night Football time!
Normally it is super easy to pick both these teams.
Brees/Thomas/Kamara/Cook
Jacobs/Waller
However, with Thomas out and the Saints being one of the best teams at shutting down RB production, there is an added wrinkle. I like Kamara to be used in almost vintage style, to split out on occasion and the Saints to go short passes and screens and get creative. In Showdowns, I actually like Lat Murray to see more volume than usual. I really like Kamara and Cook to get more volume and redzone work. The lines on Brees and Sanders are really fair and I could argue a case to go either way. I also like Lutz to finish the game with 2 field goals and 3 extra points.
On the other side, full fade on Jacobs’ total; Saints just don’t give up big numbers to RBs. So that means Carr has to pass so I’m good with him and Waller going over. Ruggs has re-injury potential and Renfrow is only good for a big game a couple of times a year so they are safe unders for me as well, plus I like Edwards to be better than last week. I could easily see Carr’s productivity spread to 2-3 catches a piece for 8 different guys with only Waller seeing double-digit targets. As for Carlson, field goals will not be enough and I’m not seeing him hit that number so, again, a good under bet.
Good luck friends, and come join me!
