This report will provide plays for the NFL DFS Monday Night Football slate. I will break down the top fantasy players to consider.
PODCAST: The King and DFS Pro Dan break down the MNF Showdown field
Cleveland Browns vs. San Francisco 49ers
O/U: 47.5 (SFO -5)
NFL DFS: Cleveland Browns
The Browns head to San Francisco to take on the second best defense in the NFL through four games this season.They have sputtered on offense for the most part outside of their prime time game against the lowly Jets and a struggling Ravens defense. The Browns have an offensive DVOA of -8.5% (below league average), and a defensive DVOA of -9.1% (above league average). Overall they rank 14th in the league with a 5.6% DVOA. With Cleveland’s passing game ranking 25th in terms of DVOA and SFO’s defense ranking second, I can see this creating a run funnel in a game where both teams try to control the clock by running the football. If San Francisco is able to pull ahead and Cleveland is forced to abandon the run, Baker and Company could be in for a very long Monday Night.
NFL DFS: San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers are coming fresh off of a bye week after starting the season out 3-0. Through those first three weeks, the 49er’s have the second best defense in the league per their -35.9% DVOA (35.9% better than league average), second only to the Patriots. Their pass rush has been nothing short of amazing, and even though they don’t have an elite secondary, the defensive line is so good it makes those guys look like studs. I also expect a run funnel effect for the 49ers as well. Jimmy Garoppolo has struggled in passing schemes and Cleveland ranks in the top 10 in terms of passing yards allowed per game (215). San Francisco has a very crowded back-field with Tevin Coleman back in the lineup, but I still think Matt Breida should see a bulk of the work, followed by Raheem Mostert.
