Redskins at Vikings NFL Thursday Night Football on DraftKings

NFL Week 7 Monday Night FanDuel and DraftKings Rundown
The Week 7 Monday night game features the Patriots in a familiar role as heavy favorites. The line in this game opened at Pats +10 and nearly 75% of the tickets are on New England. With that said, dogs have been killing it this season and are especially dangerous in low total games like this one (42 points).
The smart money has already moved the line down to Pats +9, but can the Jets actually find a way to keep this close and if so, what players hold fantasy value? Take a minute to answer our two-question Monday Night poll before we jump into our thoughts on the game.
Week 7 NFL Matchups and Fantasy Targets
Whether you are looking for streaming options for your season-long league, potential prop bet targets, or are building DFS lineups, it’s all about the matchups. Here are our favorite matchups at every position in this Week 7 fantasy slate. Let me preface this section by saying I am not going to point out how favorable the matchups are for Frank Gore, Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook… hopefully can identify chalk spots and decide where to use them.
Tevin Coleman
How many fantasy owners that have had shares of Coleman, Breida, Mostert, or Wilson have said ‘if only he could get a little more volume in Shanahan’s offense’. Well, it looks like Coleman owners are having their wishes granted.
With 21 touches last week and 16 carries the week before, Coleman is clearly the lead back in this offense. While he only converted that usage into 15 DraftKings PPG, we think Coleman pops against the Redskins in week 7.
Washington is 20th in the NFL in YPC allowed, and 27th in rushing YPG allowed. Combine that with the fact that the 49ers are 2nd in the NFL with 180 rushing YPG and 8 rushing TD’s, and I think we could see a monster day from Coleman in Week 7!
