David Montgomery M/L 54.5 Rushing Yards
David Montgomery will face his former team, the Chicago Bears, for the third time. Last season, he logged 66 and 76 rushing yards in the two matchups against them.
While the Bears’ defense is tough overall, it has vulnerabilities against the run. They’re allowing 4.8 yards per carry and rank 20th in EPA per play allowed, leaving room for Montgomery to make an impact.
Stokastic’s NFL DFS projections have Monty going over 60 rushing yards, clearing his prop mark that’s been set for today.
Let’s look for Monty to take advantage of a bad run defense and capitalize on the revenge angle versus his former squad.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: David Montgomery More Than 54.5 Rushing Yards
Rico Dowdle M/L 67.5 Rushing Yards
Rico Dowdle is coming off one of his best performances of the season, tallying 19 carries for 86 yards against the Commanders.
Now, he faces a Giants defense allowing the most yards per carry in the league (5.2) and ranking 27th in Rush EPA per play. As slight favorites, the Cowboys are expected to control the game flow, which should lead to an increased emphasis on the ground attack. This sets up a solid opportunity for Dowdle to surpass his prop mark against a vulnerable run defense.
Stokastic’s NFL DFS projections have Dowdle slated for 18 carries and 80 yards. He’s in a great spot to match those expectations.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: Rico Dowdle More Than 67.5 Rushing Yards
