Introduction
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 simply find the combination of player props you are most confident in and pick more or less. Since each combination (two or more players) are playing in the same game, we can use correlation to our advantage. For example, if we know that one starting quarterback throws for more yards than projected, the opposing quarterback is more likely to throw for more yards also.
In this weekly article, we will count down the five best props of the week, saving the best for last.
Looking back at last week
Last Week: +3 units
Full Season: +37 units
We closed out the regular season with another winning week that included a pair of comfortable wins.
Hits
-We had over 12.5 fantasy points for Chris Godwin. He had 30.3. On the other side, we took the over of 10.5 fantasy points for Russell Gage. He had 25.2.
-We figured the Washington-Philadelphia game might be ugly. We had under 223.5 passing yards for Jalen Hurts. He had 72. We had under 242.5 passing yards for Alex Smith. He had 162.
Misses
-Noah Fant missed his receiving yardage over by 2.5 yards. On the other side, Nelson Agholor came up 7.5 yards short.
-David Montgomery and Davante Adams came up short of their rushing and receiving yardage props, respectively.
-Taking the Baltimore and Cincinnati passing overs was a bit of a disaster. The game got out of control more quickly than expected and both quarterbacks came in well under their passing props.
