Fantasy Football picks: Week 5 SNF Colts vs. Chiefs

Fantasy Football picks: Week 5 SNF Colts vs. Chiefs

As most of us DFS players tend to do, after our lineups are all locked in for the main slates on Sunday, we start to mess around with the late-night game, and Monday night game. We just can not get enough Football during the season, so we will bet on basically any game and jam in our Fantasy Football picks!

In this match-up, we have a 56 point game total, which is extremely high for a game on Sunday night football. This game will be a shootout, and it kinda sucks that it is not on the main slate because we would be stacking this up to the ceiling. I am going to do my best to talk about the best players, and a few less popular options to hopefully get you at the top of the tournaments.

With these single-game slates, we will want to focus more on game theory, and less on the actual plays. We have limited options, and everyone will be on the same guys because of this. So, we have to find a way to get different from the point bonus spot, in order to stand out. I will still talk about different players I like, but I will focus a lot on how to attack those bonus spots as well.

As reference, the main websites I used are Pro Football Reference, and Football Outsiders, along with RotoGrinders tools, you may see stats such as QBR (Total Quarterback Rating) DYAR (Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement) DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average), as well as some more common terms we all know, such as totals yards, touchdowns, interceptions, etc. Let’s dive in!
