NFL DFS Showdown Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Monday Night Football

What is your favorite game-script build and why?

TJ Zwarych: I think this one will be fairly high scoring, as the Eagles offense should take care of business, while their defense hasn’t been able to stop anyone all season. Especially in fantasy, I view Drew Lock as an upgrade over Geno Smith. So I’ll be overweight on their passing game, as I think they will be playing from behind the entire 2nd half.

headChopper: I don’t have a definitive game script I like. This thing could go a lot of different ways with Drew Lock at QB and Jalen Hurts being very sick. I’ll say a game where the Eagles feed Swift and Lock has to play catch-up and targets DK Metcalf is likeliest to be my most heavily used game-script build.

kmurray03: There are some important injuries to monitor, with both teams’ QBs being questionable. Despite that, I still prefer the shootout build, as both defenses have found themselves beaten through the air at times this season, and there are lots of strong WRs in this game.

Bobby Gomes: We have a healthy game total of 45 tonight with the Eagles -3.5 on the road. Both teams have been shredded all season through the air, making several pass catchers from each team firmly in play. I think a balanced build between these two teams makes sense, as they both have play makers at RB/WR/TE. Both teams are top 18 in scoring, allowing us to use both kickers in our builds.

What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
