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

What is your favorite game-script build and why?

squirrelpatrol: I like the Cowboys to win this game, but I like Seattle to keep it a bit closer than what ownership in DFS contests will likely reflect. I can see the Cowboys getting up early and finally getting Tony Pollard a big game without airing the ball out, while Seattle players in the passing game put up big enough scores to be useful in DFS contests.

kmurray03: I think by now we have all heard the narrative of the Cowboys having not yet beaten a team with a winning record this season, I think they do so tonight, but I like the Seahawks to be able to hang in and keep it closer than many would expect. I like building with a bit more exposure to the Seattle offense than the field will.

TJ Zwarych: I think the Cowboys get out to an early lead behind their high-powered offense and probably another defensive touchdown. Because that’s what happens on Showdown slates, right? Regardless, I think the Seahawks will be forced to abandon the run game and pass the ball a ton in the 2nd half to try and keep up with the Cowboys offense.

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?
