NFL DFS Showdown Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Sunday Night Football (Chiefs vs. Bills)

What is your favorite game-script build and why?

squirrelpatrol: There are some big names on offense here, but I can see this being a close, lower-scoring game. These teams are very familiar with each other, and this one could come down to the defenses. I see Buffalo winning by less than a touchdown at home behind Josh Allen and James Cook.

Notorious: I have a hard time seeing one of these teams running away from the other. I expect a competitive game. However, we could see a very concentrated offense on the Bills side and a more spread-out offense on the Chiefs side. I don’t mind the idea of using Josh Allen at MVP or CPT and then surrounding him with a bunch of players on the Chiefs. If Allen spreads the ball around and does a lot of damage on the ground, we might not need a bunch of Bills in our builds.

TastefulTides: On the Chiefs side of the ball, it’s very easy to know where the offense is going to come from. With the Bills defense very banged up, there shouldn’t be an issue for the Chiefs to score the football. I don’t mind using Mahomes as a CPT/MVP due to his ability to use his legs and not only gain rushing yards but to keep plays alive for downfield passes. For the Bills, Josh Allen is going to really need to keep the mistakes at a minimum, but I think he and his pass catchers will be the clear focal point of this offense.

TJ Zwarych: I think Buffalo ultimately wins a close game. There will be turnovers and lots of touchdowns with two of the top teams in the AFC facing off. I’ll be heavy on Josh Allen, as his rushing ability moves to another level in the playoffs.

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?

He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
