Monkey Knife Fight is one of the fastest-growing daily fantasy sites. It offers a fun and unique product. There are no salary caps and no need for lineup builders. 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) plays in the same game, you can use correlation to your advantage. For example, if you assume that one starting quarterback throws for more yards than projected, the opposing quarterback also is more likely to throw for more yards. This weekly article will count down the five best props of the week.
5: Pass Heavy in Philly
Jalen Hurts MORE than 239.5 passing yards
Brock Purdy MORE than 219.5 passing yards
- This is a positive correlation play based upon a belief that Philadelphia will have success through the air and the 49ers will be forced to pass more than they would like to in order to keep pace.
- The expectation is Philadelphia will have to lean on a pass-heavy offensive approach. The 49ers give up the second-fewest rushing yards in the league but are just 20th in passing yards allowed.
- The Eagles passing offense has been elite and is fully healthy, with A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert each playing at a high level.
- Purdy has been excellent since taking over as the starting quarterback midseason. He finished his rookie season averaging 8.1 yards per attempt and completing 67.1% of his passes. He had a career-high 332 passing yards and 3 touchdowns in his playoff debut against the Seahawks.
Plotting QB efficiency with clean pockets and under pressure... look at Brock Purdy's dot — right by Patrick Mahomes II!

This is obviously doubly huge entering a game against Philadelphia's NFL-leading pass rush.
