Introduction
Monkey Knife Fight is one of the fastest-growing daily fantasy sites and offers a unique product that is a lot of fun. There are no salary caps and you do not have to compete against DFS pros. Instead, you simply find the combination of player props you are most confident in and pick more or less. Since each combination (two or more players) are playing in the same game, we can use correlation to our advantage. For example, if we know that one starting quarterback throws for more yards than projected, the opposing quarterback is more likely to throw for more yards also.
In this weekly article, we will count down the five best props of the week. With the Holiday week, we are going to do things just a little bit differently. We are going to give our two favorite Thanksgiving Day props on Thursday morning and then add the top three weekend plays on Friday.
Week 13 Review
- Last Week: -1
- Season Total: -1
We went 1-of-3 on touchdown props, which was good for +1 unit with the 4X. These continue to be our most positive EV props.
Week 13 Picks
- 5: Bengals-Chargers TD (-1): We got close. Joe Mixon and Austin Ekeler scored, but JaMarr Chase dropped what likely would have been a long touchdown, leaving us 0.5 touchdowns short.
- 4: Betting on Backups: (-1) We only got one touchdown from our backups (via Alexander Mattison) but the Adam Thielen injury made this an uphill battle.
- 3: Low-Flying NFC West: (-1) We only hit half of this one. Jimmy Garoppolo hit the over via a big fourth quarter.
- 2: Chicago-Arizona TDs: (+3) We got our three combined touchdowns from James Conner, DeAndre Hopkins, and David Montgomery before halftime.
- 1: Surprisingly fun in Washington (-1) This game was not in fact much fun.
5: Steelers-Vikings TDs
