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 will be selecting player props in a more or less format or head-to-head between players. The format and number of items selected will determine your potential payout.

This weekly article will count down the three best props for Monday Night Football. Given that this is a single-game format, you typically will need to make a prediction for at least one player per team.

WEEK 12 PICKS

3: Endzone Edges

Jonathan Taylor, Najee Harris, and Pat Freiermuth to combine for MORE than 2.5 touchdowns (2x)

• Taylor has received 22 carries in each of Jeff Saturday's coaching efforts, scoring in each one.
• Harris is coming off a two-score game, and there is some chance Jaylen Warren does not play.
• Freiermuth has seen 19 targets in the two games since Pittsburgh traded Chase Claypool.

2: Room to Run

Jonathan Taylor and Najee Harris to rush for MORE than 159.5 yards (2x)

• This game currently has a spread of just 2.5 -- the contest should stay close and entice more rushing.
• Harris has seen 20 carries in each of his last two games and has gone over 90 yards in those games.
• Taylor has gone over this number himself five times in his career.

1: No Fly Zone

Diontae Johnson to have LESS than 45.5 yards receiving
Alec Pierce to have LESS than 42.5 yards receiving (3x)

• Johnson has seen just 10 targets in the last two weeks.
• Johnson's 6.4 yards per target is the fourth-lowest number for all receivers with at least 100 targets over the past three seasons.
• Pierce relies on long plays and has not been able to connect recently with Matt Ryan (28 yards total in the last two games).
