Week 18’s Saturday slate ends with Derrick Henry and the Titans taking on Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars in the de facto AFC South championship game. Jacksonville wins the division with a win or a tie, while Tennessee would punch its ticket to the 토토 postseason with a win. NFL DFS players will be looking to take home some cash in FanDuel single-game tournaments, as there is no shortage of intriguing lineup picks from both teams.
Before we get into our picks and strategy, here are the notable scoring settings for FanDuel single-game contests: The point total for the “MVP” is multiplied by 1.5, but he doesn’t cost any additional money like the “Captain” in DraftKings Showdown contests. FanDuel’s default scoring is half-point PPR and four-point passing TDs, and there are no bonuses for 300-yard/100-yard games like on DraftKings.
After sitting out last week’s game against the Cowboys with a hip injury, Henry should be rested and ready to go for this highly anticipated matchup for the AFC South crown. Henry has averaged 18.2 FanDuel points per game this year, and when the Titans played the Jags in Week 14, he posted 155 total yards and a touchdown on 20 touches. The veteran running back has scored double-digit FanDuel points in five out of his past six games, and he should have another solid performance against a middle-of-the-road Jags run defense. With so much on the line, do not be surprised if Henry receives 20 or more carries, which he’s done nine times this season.
The second-year quarterback is averaging 20.5 FanDuel points in the second half of the season, posting 14 touchdowns and two interceptions over that span (eight games). One of those games was against the Titans when the former No. 1 overall pick scored a season-high 33.42 FanDuel points in a 36-22 win. The Titans’ defense had no answer for Lawrence, who completed 30-of-42 passes for 368 yards and three touchdowns. He also added a rushing touchdown. Lawrence might not score 30 points on Saturday night, but we like him to reach the 20-point threshold against a Jags defense that allows the fourth-most FanDuel points (20.5) to quarterbacks this season.
