Disclaimer

These contests are intended to be fun as you’re watching the game. It’s incredibly difficult to get a real edge as there are so few options, and in MME contests, there are often many duplicate lineups. One play or one penalty can change the entire outcome of the game.

Game Strategy

  • Over/Under: 53.5
  • Spread: Cowboys -6
  • Cowboys Implied Team Total: 29.8
  • Lions Implied Team Total: 23.8

This going to be one hell of an island game! The Over/Under of 53.5 is by far the highest of the entire week and both dome teams are playing in just that, a dome. With no weather concerns and two of the best offenses in football going at it, no D/STs or kickers should be considered. Load up on skill player talent on both teams.
