NFL DFS Prop Picks for Sunday (11/29/20) - Monkey Knife Fight

November 27, 2020

Scott Cullen provides his NFL DFS prop picks for November 29th, 2020 on Monkey Knife Fight. Make your DFS picks with his fantasy football advice.

Week 12 of the NFL season is not without some adventure but as long as teams are suiting up there will be props to play on Monkey Knife Fight.

All season, it has felt like the NFL has been walking a tight rope to get to the finish line without the Corona virus knocking them off and there have been occasions where it appeared that they might run into real trouble but somehow they have pressed through and survived.

This week’s Pittsburgh-Baltimore game was moved from Thursday night to Sunday and now to Tuesday due to positive Covid tests.

Combine the unpredictability of Covid testing with a league that saw injuries increase 16% in the first half of the season and it has required forecasters to stay on their toes – you don’t always know who is going to be stepping into the spotlight from one week to the next.

Fortunately, there are some familiar faces like superstar quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady who keep their teams pushing forward. They will be going head-to-head in a marquee matchup Sunday afternoon.

Here are some Star Shootout prop possibilities to consider for the Sunday slate of NFL games on Monkey Knife Fight:

STAR SHOOTOUT - EARLY GAMES

MORE OR LESS

Josh Allen LESS THAN 285.5 PASSING YARDS

While it has been a breakthrough season for Allen, and he is averaging 287.1 passing yards per game, he has slowed down since throwing for more than 285 yards in each of the first four games. In the past six games, Allen has passed for more than 285 yards just twice and he’s facing a Chargers Defense that hasn’t allowed a quarterback to throw for more than 285 yards since Week 5.

Justin Herbert LESS THAN 285.5 PASSING YARDS

The brilliant Chargers rookie has averaged 299.9 passing yards per game this season but he has surpassed 285 passing yards once in four road contests so far this season. While the Bills Defense has been vulnerable this season, they have allowed more than 285 passing yards once in the past six weeks.

Dalvin Cook MORE THAN 24.5 FANTASY POINTS

The Vikings running back has been massively productive this season, leading the league with 118.8 rushing yards per game while scoring 14 touchdowns in nine games. He has also had a heavy workload, including 109 carries in his past four games. The Panthers have allowed more than 24 fantasy points six times this season so they ought to be vulnerable enough for Cook to get loose.

Cam Newton LESS THAN 20.5 FANTASY POINTS

The challenge for the Patriots quarterback is trying to accumulate more than 20 fantasy points when he can’t be trusted to throw touchdown passes. He has passed for two touchdowns in the past six games. The Arizona Cardinals have allowed more than 20 fantasy points in seven of 10 games.

RAPID FIRE

Stefon Diggs -7.5 receiving yards vs. Keenan Allen

This is a close matchup once the spread has been taken into consideration. Diggs is having a phenomenal season for the Bills and is averaging 90.6 receiving yards per game. Just like Diggs is Josh Allen’s prime target, so too is Allen for Justin Herbert, averaging 83.5 receiving yards per game.

MORE OR LESS

Patrick Mahomes LESS THAN 325.5 PASSING YARDS

While there are times that it feels altogether hopeless for opposing defenses facing Mahomes, this is an extraordinary number to cover. Mahomes has passed for more than 325 yards in three consecutive games but just five times overall this season. He takes on a Bucs defense that has allowed more than 325 passing yards twice this season, one of which was last week against Jared Goff and the Rams.

Tom Brady LESS THAN 300.5 PASSING YARDS

Even though the Chiefs are in the lead frequently, which provides incentive for opponents to throw the ball, there have been only three games this season in which the Chiefs have allowed more than 300 passing yards. Brady is averaging 268.6 passing yards per game, going for more than 300 three times.

Taysom Hill MORE THAN 19.5 FANTASY POINTS

Even though they have locked down opposing quarterbacks in the past two games, the Broncos have still given up at least 20 fantasy points in seven games this season. Hill is a total wildcard because of his lack of passing credentials but he accounted for more than 26 fantasy points in last week’s start against Atlanta.

Michael Thomas MORE THAN 16.5 FANTASY POINTS

It has been a rough season for the star Saints receiver but he had double digit targets last week against Atlanta, the only time that has happened in four games that Thomas has played this season. He’s still seeking his first touchdown of the year and if he can get just one, it will be relatively easy for him to record at least 17 points, something that 11 receivers have already done against Denver so far this season.

Tyreek Hill MORE THAN 16.5 FANTASY POINTS

The speedy Chiefs receiver has been on a tear lately, with 24 catches for 313 yards and five touchdowns in the past three games. He brings that playmaking ability against a Bucs defense that has allowed seven receivers to record at least 17 PPR fantasy points in a game this season.

RAPID FIRE

Cooper Kupp -0.5 receptions vs. Robert Woods

Both Rams receivers are big threats coming off of huge games last week against Tampa Bay. Kupp is averaging 6.4 receptions per game this season and has been targeted 40 times in the past three games. Woods is putting up 5.4 receptions per game and has 29 targets in the past three games. It’s certainly possible that Woods could produce more in this game but the odds are with Kupp.
