Riley Ridley Jersey ET, NBC). Miami enters this primetime contest as 3.5-point favorites, with the over/under set at 52.5 total points, . This game features a ton of offensive firepower on both teams, allowing DFS players to put together multiple FanDuel single-game lineups on Sunday night.Let's dive into our FanDuel Single Game Showdown for Sunday Night Football. Here are the notable scoring settings for FanDuel single-game contests:The point total for the "MVP" is multiplied by 1.5, but he doesn't cost any additional money like the "Captain" in DraftKings Showdown contests.FanDuel's default scoring ishalf-point PPR andfour-point pa sing TDs.Unlike on DraftKings, FanDuel features bonuses for 300-yard/100-yard games.MORE FD SINGLE GAME: MVP (1.5x points): WR Keenan Allen, Chargers ($12,000)At the MVP spot, we will go with Allen, who has played well since returning from a hamstring
Prince Amukamara Jersey injury in Week 11. The veteran wide receiver has 16 receptions (29 targets) for 231 yards and two touchdowns in his past three games. Allen also posted 13.7 FanDuel points per game over that span, including two double-digit performances. The star wide receiver will be going up against an improving Dolphins' pa s defense, which allows the 14th-fewest FanDuel points per game to WRs (26.5) this season. It's not an ideal matchup for the veteran wideout. However, it's hard not to have him in the MVP spot based on his recent performances.FLEX QB Justin Herbert, Chargers ($16,500)With Allen in our FanDuel single-game lineup, it's only right to stack him with Herbert. The young signal-caller has played better over the past three games with six touchdowns, one interception, and averaging 22.3 FanDuel points per game. Last week against the Raiders, Herbert threw for 335 yards and a touchdown but still scored 18.1 FanDuel points. He has a great matchup against the Dolphins' defense, which has given up the fourth-most FanDuel points per game to QBs (20.8) this season. They've also allowed 233.5 pa sing yards per game this season (11th-most in the NFL). Herbert has a good shot to score at least 20 FanDuel points, especially with the po sibility of Mike Williams returning from injury.WEEK 14 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | |
Buster Skrine Jersey | | FLEX WR Jaylen Waddle, Dolphins ($12,500)The second-year wide receiver had a quiet performance last week against the 49ers as he was hampered by a fibula injury (one reception for nine yards and 1.4 FanDuel points). However, the good news for Miami fans and DFS players is that Waddle seems to be on track to play on Sunday night after being a full participant at Thursday's practice. The former Alabama standout has a tough matchup against the Chargers
Eddie Jackson Jersey ' defense, which allows the 12th-fewest FanDuel points per game to WRs this season (26.5). That said, Los Angeles' defense has given up 12 touchdowns to wideouts this season, which is tied for seventh-most in the NFL. Waddle has scored three touchdowns in two out of his past three road games, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him add to it, especially with so much attention going toward Tyreek Hill.WEEK 14 DFS: | FLEX RB Jeff Wilson Jr., Chargers ($10,500)The Dolphins' running game struggled immensely against the 49ers' defense last week as they were held to 33 yards. Wilson Jr. only had a carry for three yards, despite playing 37 percent of offensive snaps. However, the veteran running back should bounce back against a lackluster Chargers' run defense, which has allowed 151.6 yards per game this season (fourth-most in the NFL). They are also giving up 25.2 FanDuel points per game to RBs. Since arriving in Miami, Wilson has scored 12 FanDuel points per game and three total touchdowns (four games).WEEK 14 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | FLEX TE Gerald Everett, Chargers ($8,500)Lastly, we will round out our single lineup with Everett, who will be overlooked by most DFS players
Leonard Floyd Jersey due to the abundance of talent at WR and RB. However, he has a great matchup against the Dolphins' defense, which allows the third-most FanDuel points per game to TEs (12.3), the second-most receptions, and seven touchdowns. Last week against the Raiders' defense, the veteran tight end had five receptions (six targets) for 80 yards and 10.5 FanDuel points. Even with the po sibility of Williams returning, we still like Everett to capitalize off another favorable matchup on Sunday night.
