Keys to the Game

Our analysts watched zero film

Amon-Ra Doggin win ifโ€ฆ

  1. Someone has to go off. No clear matchup edge on the sheet, so Amon-Ra Doggin need a star turn โ€” Christian McCaffrey is the most likely candidate.
  2. Check the injury report: Aaron Jones Sr. Banged up and 'not 100 percent'.
  3. Contain Bryce Young. Derek Brown's strong start: Cleveland allows the 5th-highest passing success rate and the 11th-lowest pressure rate โ€” Conspiracy Theory's best path goes right through him.

Conspiracy Theory win ifโ€ฆ

  1. Ride the matchup: Bryce Young. Derek Brown's strong start: Cleveland allows the 5th-highest passing success rate and the 11th-lowest pressure rate.
  2. Survive Harold Fannin Jr. Carolina allows the 7th-fewest tight-end yards per target โ€” mitigate the damage and the rest of the lineup can carry it.
  3. Don't beat yourself. Amon-Ra Doggin have no glaring matchup edge either โ€” the cleaner team wins this.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Hot Take Hank
Picks Conspiracy Theory

Steve and I finally agree, and it feels terrible: Conspiracy Theory by 30.2. The Thursday money is already counted โ€” Drake London put ~28.4 in the bank before most of Amon-Ra Doggin even stretched. Lamar Jackson โ€” gets Dallas in Rio in one of the week's highest totals (low 50s).

Picks Conspiracy Theory

Conspiracy Theory by 30.2. The projections and the matchups agree, which almost never happens. Bryce Young โ€” Derek Brown's strong start: Cleveland allows the 5th-highest passing success rate and the 11th-lowest pressure rate. Amon-Ra Doggin's side of the sheet is uglier: Rome Odunze โ€” RotoBaller's worst WR/CB matchup of the week: Quinyon Mitchell in coverage with third-stringer Case Keenum likely at QB Monday night.
