NFL MNF 11/18/24 DK DFS Breakdown

We have a Texas showdown game for Monday night football! Time to dig in!

Houston Texans vs Dallas Cowboys

Spread- Texans at -7

Over/Under- 41.5

Dallas Cowboys

Oh, this team is going to be the death of me. All bias aside...this season has been terrible. Cooper Rush is starting at QB and the last game was one to forget. The DraftKings price tag is tempting. Buyer beware with Cooper Rush. Rico Dowdle is now the "lead back". The price tag has skyrocketed due to that news earlier this week. Ezekiel Elliott and Dalvin Cook are now interesting. Dalvin Cook will be phased out but Ezekiel Elliott is in play still. CeeDee Lamb is the highest-priced Dallas Cowboy on the slate. What to do with him and the horrible QB play? The question remains. Can he pay off the price tag as well? Jonathan Mingo is cheap on this slate and is expected to be a full go. The injuries didn't set him back so keep that in mind. He is worth a dart throw and his role will be learned in this game. Jalen Tolbert has been consistent with targets. At the tight end position, Jake Ferguson is the main guy and is still looking for his first touchdown this season, look for him in the red zone. Cowboys defense is one I am staying away from him. Brandon Aubrey is certainly in play and almost automatic.

Houston Texans

The Houston Texans are coming off a loss to the Detroit Lions. This spot will be where they are looking for blood in a bounce-back win. CJ Stroud has had lackluster fantasy performances, which will be a spot for him to surpass 20 DraftKings points. Joe Mixon is the highest-priced option on the slate and he is worth every penny against this Dallas Cowboys defense. Dameon Pierce is back and will look to be mixed in as the number two back. The big news of the slate is Nico Collins appears to be ready to go for this game. The DraftKings price tag is high for him and I am interested in how he looks in pregame warm-ups and coach speak. Tank Dell has seen 9 targets in the past two games and even at the higher price, he is worth a look. John Metchie had a breakout game last week and the DraftKings price tag makes him a great value for us. Xavier Hutchinson will likely see his snaps dwindle with Nico Collins coming back. Dalton Schultz hasn't found the end zone either and someone who is worth a sprinkle but I'm not high on him in this game. The Texan's defense is way too overpriced despite the poor play from the Cowboys.
