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

What is your favorite game-script build and why?

squirrelpatrol: The Bills score early on long drives involving Stefon Diggs and Dalton Kincaid, but the Bucs are able to keep things close with Chris Godwin getting most of the receiving work. The Bills pull it out, and Latavius Murray scores an insurance TD.

headChopper: Closer game than expected with more defense than offense. I think TDs are at a premium and thus a cheaper, low owned guy who scores 1 TD could end up in the optimal in my build. Both offenses have shown to be inconsistent at times and both defenses are typically solid.

kmurray03: I like the lower-than-expected scoring game script here with the game being tighter than most expect.

TJ Zwarych: Buffalo has struggled recently, and while I still believe in them, both teams have strong defenses. I think this could be a relatively close, low-scoring game. I don’t mind playing either kicker or D/ST in this game, while making sure I prioritize at least one of Josh Allen or Stefon Diggs.

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?
