Before we dive into the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this week’s Philadelphia Eagles vs. Kansas City Chiefs matchup.

Draftkings NFL Showdown Picks

Captain-Saquon Barkley, Running Back, Philadelphia Eagles $12,000

In my opinion, veteran running back Saquon Barkley has been the driving force behind the Philadelphia Eagles offensive success this season. Having stated that, how has Barkley played from a statistical perspective? Let’s review the talented running back’s relevant player data from this season to answer that question.

In the 19 games that Saquon Barkley has played for the Philadelphia Eagles this season (including playoffs), Barkley has compiled a rather impressive 2,447 rushing yards, 18 rushing touchdowns, 40 receptions, 313 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns.

Two weeks ago, in the Philadelphia Eagles thrilling 28-22 victory over the Los Angeles Rams, Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley tallied a whopping 205 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, four receptions and 27 receiving yards.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the Philadelphia Eagles win over the Los Angeles Rams just mentioned, Saquon Barkley amassed 42.2 Draftkings points.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups for this one game DFS slate.

In my view, Saquon Barkley is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this NFL playoff game. For that specific reason, I am backing Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NFL Showdown contest.

Flex Plays

Travis Kelce, Tight End, Kansas City Chiefs $9,000

Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce has certainly been a key contributor to the Chiefs lineup this season. Let’s review Kelce’s game data from this season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 18 games that tight end Travis Kelce has played for the Kansas City Chiefs this season (including playoffs), Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has targeted Kelce a whopping 145 times. In those 145 targets just noted, Kelce compiled 106 receptions, 959 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns.

Additional flex plays I like to perform well in Super Bowl LIX (Draftkings price noted): Patrick Mahomes, Quarterback (Kansas City Chiefs) $10,000: DeVonta Smith, Wide Receiver (Philadelphia Eagles) $7,400: Jalen Hurts, Quarterback (Philadelphia Eagles) $10,400: Hollywood Brown, Wide Receiver (Kansas City Chiefs) $5,400.

Eagles vs Chiefs Prediction 

Kansas City comes into this matchup looking to win their third straight Super Bowl, while Philadelphia is looking for revenge on their 38-35 loss in Super Bowl LVII in 2023. The Chiefs haven’t looked overly impressive this season, but they continue to find ways to win games and with Mahomes under center, they are never out of a game. Philadelphia looked dominant in their win over Washington in their last game, but they are heavily dependent on Barkley and the ground game. I know Hurts looked very sharp in that win against Washington, but I am curious to see how the passing attack looks against this Kansas City defense. This should be a great game between two very good teams and while it may seem crazy to go against Kansas City, that is exactly what I am going to do. I think the Philadelphia ground game is going to control the pace of this game and the Eagles defense will be able to generate stops. It is always a concern going against Kansas City and their ability to win the penalty yardage battle, but I am backing Barkley and the Eagles ground game here.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this week’s Washington Commanders vs. Philadelphia Eagles matchup.

Draftkings NFL Showdown Picks

Captain-Saquon Barkley, Running Back, Philadelphia Eagles $11,600

Veteran running back Saquon Barkley has certainly been a standout performer for the Philadelphia Eagles this season. Having stated that, how has Barkley played from a statistical perspective? Let’s review Barkley’s relevant player data from this season to answer that question.

In the 18 games that Saquon Barkley has played for the Philadelphia Eagles this season (including playoffs), Barkley has amassed a robust 2,329 rushing yards, 15 rushing touchdowns, 39 receptions, 309 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns.

It should also be noted that these two teams met earlier this season. Who prevailed? How did Saquon Barkley perform in the game? In the Washington Commanders 36-33 win over the Philadelphia Eagles five weeks ago, Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley compiled a massive 150 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the Washington Commanders victory over the Philadelphia Eagles just mentioned, Saquon Barkley accumulated 30.1 Draftkings points.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups for this one game DFS slate.

In summary, I think running back Saquon Barkley is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in tomorrow afternoon’s NFC Championship game. With that said, I am backing Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NFL Showdown contest.

Flex Plays

Jayden Daniels, Quarterback, Washington Commanders $11,000

Washington rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels has wasted little time showing the world that he belongs in the NFL. Let’s review Jayden Daniels game data from this season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 18 games that Jayden Daniels has played for the Washington Commanders this season (including playoffs), Daniels has accumulated 4,135 passing yards, 29 passing touchdowns, 978 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns.

More recently, in the Washington Commanders thrilling 45-31 win over the Detroit Lions last week, Jayden Daniels played exceptionally well. More specifically, Daniels tallied 299 passing yards, two passing touchdowns and 51 rushing yards in the Commanders upset victory over the Detroit Lions.

Additional flex plays I like to perform well (Draftkings price noted): Jalen Hurts, Quarterback (Philadelphia Eagles) $10,400: A.J. Brown, Wide Receiver (Philadelphia Eagles) $9,800: Austin Ekeler, Running Back (Washington Commanders) $6,400: Zach Ertz, Tight End (Washington Commanders) $5,200.

Draftkings NFL Showdown Picks

Captain-Josh Allen, Quarterback, Buffalo Bills, $11,600

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen enters this week’s AFC Championship game playing simply outstanding football. Having stated that, how has Allen performed from a statistical perspective this season? Let’s review Josh Allen’s game data from the 2024 NFL regular season to answer that question.

In the 19 games that Josh Allen has played for the Buffalo Bills this season (including playoffs), Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen amassed a massive 4,130 passing yards, 30 passing touchdowns, 597 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns.

More recently, in the Buffalo Bills convincing 31-7 win over the Denver Broncos two weeks ago, Buffalo signal caller Josh Allen tallied 272 passing yards, two rushing touchdowns and added 46 rushing yards.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the Buffalo Bills victory over the Denver Broncos just noted, Josh Allen compiled a robust 25.5 Draftkings points.

It is noteworthy that these two teams played earlier this season. Who prevailed? How did Josh Allen perform in the game? In the Buffalo Bills 30-21 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in October, Josh Allen accumulated a rather impressive 25.1 Draftkings points.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest.

In summary, I think quarterback Josh Allen is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in Sunday afternoon’s AFC Championship game. For that specific reason, I am backing Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NFL Showdown slate.

Flex Plays

Travis Kelce, Tight End, Kansas City Chiefs $9,000

Veteran tight end Travis Kelce has certainly been a key contributor to the Kansas City Chiefs offense this season. In the 17 games that Travis Kelce has played for the Kansas City Chiefs this season (including playoffs), Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has targeted Kelce a whopping 141 times. In those 141 targets just noted, Kelce tallied 104 receptions, 940 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns.

The Kansas City Chiefs were 15-2 this season and they are coming off of a 23-14 win over Houston in their last game.

Buffalo out gained KC by a total of 366-259, won the turnover battle 2-1, and went 9-15 on third down in the game.

• The Bills have won each of their last five Sunday games against teams that held a winning record.
• The Bills have covered the spread in each of their last five games against teams that held a winning record.

Chiefs vs Bills Prediction 

These two teams meet once again in the postseason, with the winner going to the Super Bowl. Buffalo was able to beat Kansas City in the regular season, but they will be on the road for this game. The Chiefs have only lost twice this season, but they haven’t been overly impressive and have been pretty low scoring offensively. Buffalo has one of the best offenses in the NFL and I think they have the fire power to beat this Kansas City defense. We saw Houston do more than enough to win the game last week in KC and I think Buffalo’s offensive edge will result in the win here. Take the Bills on the road.

Washington Commanders Betting Preview

It’s been a wild season in Washington. The Commanders opened on a pretty great run, then looked sunk following a three-game losing streak in November. Since then however, Washington has surged on an epic winning streak, defying all odds on their way to the Conference Championship Game. The Commanders kicked things off on a 7-2 run with losses to Tampa Bay and Baltimore, then hit that three-game skid with losses to the Steelers, Eagles and Cowboys. Washington powered their way into the playoffs with wins over the Titans, Saints, Eagles, Falcons and Cowboys to finish off the regular season on a 12-5 overall record. Following an intense Wild Card win over the Buccaneers, the Commanders shocked the Lions last weekend in their Divisional Round matchup.

On Saturday in Detroit, Washington was close to a double-digit dog but still found a way to win with an impressive performance. The Commanders pummeled the Lions with a whopping 28 points in the second quarter alone, then finished off on a 14-10 second half for a 45-31 road victory. Jayden Daniels led the team with 299 yards and two scores, while Brian Robinson had 15 carries for 77 yards and two touchdowns of his own. Dyami Brown was the leading receiver with six grabs for 98 yards, and Terry McLaurin had a solid game on four catches for 87 yards and a touchdown.

Philadelphia Eagles Betting Preview

Over on the Eagles’ side, they had some early bumps in the road but since their early bye week they’ve looked great. Philadelphia opened on a 2-2 run with losses to the Falcons and Buccaneers, then hit a win streak out of their Week 5 bye. Those victories came over the Browns, Giants, Bengals, Jaguars, Cowboys, Commanders, Rams, Ravens, Panthers and Steelers. Following the Week 16 loss to Washington, Philadelphia finished up with wins over Dallas and the Giants for a 14-3 regular-season run. Since then the Eagles have dispatched the Packers and Rams in a pair of playoff appearances.

Matched up against the Rams during a snowy game on Sunday, the Eagles held a slim 16-15 edge by the end of the third. Philly finished strong on a 12-7 fourth quarter though, powering out the win 28-22. QB Jalen Hurts could only muster 128 pass yards in the tough conditions, but also rushed seven times for 70 yards and a score. Saquon Barkley had 205 rush yards and a pair of touchdowns on 26 carries, though. Leading the receivers during the big victory was Dallas Goedert with four catches for 56 yards. Barkley also caught four balls for 27 yards.

Eagles vs Commanders Prediction

I’ll take a stab on the Commanders. The Cardiac Kids of Washington need just one more win to conquer the NFC, and during this epic run of seven straight victories it seems anything is possible. Considering the Commanders had won five straight by six points or fewer as they were heading into last weekend’s showdown with Detroit. It was something of a shock to see Washington come away with a two-score victory on the road against a tough squad. The Commanders gathered 481 yards of offense (299 passing) in that one, along with 27 first downs. The defense gave up a whopping 521 yards on the other side, but also forced five turnovers (four interceptions) which ultimately dampened any hopes the Lions had at winning.

As for Philly, they’re coming off a gutsy win over the Rams in some pretty rough weather conditions. The Eagles lost 63 yards on seven sacks but made up for it with 285 rush yards and a couple of key fumble recoveries on defense. For what it’s worth, Philadelphia hasn’t gotten past 28 points in six of their last eight games. If that trend holds it’ll be another close one.

These teams know each other well: Philly won the November 14 game 26-18 at home, and Washington returned the favor with a home win of their own 36-33 on December 22. The Eagles are likely going to try and pound the rush early and often in this second rematch, so the Commanders’ run stuffers will need to be on point in order to help get the defense off the field quickly. It’s yet another tricky matchup for Washington, but at this point they’re no strangers to adversity. Should be a great game; don’t miss this one.

Before we dive into the Los Angeles Rams vs. Philadelphia Eagles game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this week’s Los Angeles Rams vs. Philadelphia Eagles matchup.

Draftkings NFL Showdown Picks

Captain-Saquon Barkley, Running Back, Philadelphia Eagles $11,200

Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley has undoubtedly established himself as one of the best players in the National Football League. With that said, how has the talented running back played from a statistical perspective? Let’s review Barkley’s relevant player data to answer that question.

In the 16 games that Saquon Barkley has played for the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2024 NFL regular season, Barkley has compiled a massive 2,005 rushing yards, 13 rushing touchdowns, 33 receptions, 278 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns.

It should also be noted that these two teams met earlier this season. Who prevailed? How did Saquon Barkley perform in the game? In the Philadelphia Eagles convincing 37-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams, Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley tallied a whopping 255 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, four receptions and 47 receiving yards.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the Philadelphia Eagles win over the Los Angeles Rams just mentioned, Saquon Barkley accumulated 49.2 Draftkings points. It has to be said, those are the type of DFS numbers that I need to see from a player that I select at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL Showdown contest.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups for this one game DFS slate.

In summary, I think running back Saquon Barkley is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this NFL playoff game. Having stated that, I am backing Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NFL Showdown contest.

Flex Plays

Jalen Hurts, Quarterback, Philadelphia Eagles, $10,800

In addition to running back Saquon Barkley, quarterback Jalen Hurts has been a key contributor to the Philadelphia Eagles offense this season. Let’s dive into Hurts relevant game data from the 2024 NFL regular season to answer that question.

In the 15 games that starting quarterback Jalen Hurts played for the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2024 NFL regular season, Hurts tallied a robust 2,903 passing yards, 18 passing touchdowns, 630 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns.

Additional flex plays I like to perform well (Draftkings price noted): Kyren Williams, Running Back (Los Angeles Rams) $9,600: DeVonta, Wide Receiver (Philadelphia Eagles) $8,000: Puka Nacua, Wide Receiver (Los Angeles Rams) $10,400.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this week’s Buffalo Bills vs. Baltimore Ravens matchup.

NFL Showdown Picks

Captain-Lamar Jackson, Quarterback, Baltimore Ravens $11,800

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has played simply outstanding football this season. Having stated that, how has Jackson fared from a statistical standpoint in 2024? Let’s examine Jackson’s pertinent game data from the 2024 NFL regular season to answer that question.

In the 17 games that Lamar Jackson has played for the Baltimore Ravens in the 2024 NFL regular season, Baltimore Ravens starting quarterback Lamar Jackson has compiled an impressive 4,172 passing yards, 41 passing touchdowns, 915 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns.

It is noteworthy that these two teams met earlier this season. Who prevailed? How did Lamar Jackson perform in the game? In the Baltimore Ravens 35-10 win over the Buffalo Bills, Jackson certainly played at a high level. Let me be more specific. In the Ravens victory over the Bills, Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson accumulated 156 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, 54 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown.

Looking at the data just presented more closely, in the Baltimore Ravens win over the Buffalo Bills just mentioned, Lamar Jackson tallied 24.6 Draftkings points.

As I noted in the rules section above, selecting the correct player at the captain position for a Draftkings NFL showdown lineup is absolutely vital if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) DFS contest. Keep that in mind as you construct your lineups for this one game DFS slate.

In my view, I think Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this NFL playoff game. For that specific reason, I am backing Lamar Jackson at the captain position for this one game Draftkings NFL Showdown contest.

Flex Plays

Mark Andrews, Tight End, Baltimore Ravens $6,400

In addition to Lamar Jackson, tight end Mark Andrews has been a key contributor to the Baltimore Ravens offense this season.

In the 17 games that tight end Mark Andrews has played for the Baltimore Ravens in the 2024 NFL regular season, Ravens starting quarterback Lamar Jackson has targeted Andrews 69 times. In those 69 targets, Andrews tallied 55 receptions, 673 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns.

In conclusion, I fully expect Ravens tight end Mark Andrews to continue his quality play in this evening’s AFC Divisional Round game.

Additional flex plays I like to perform well in this game (Draftkings price noted): Josh Allen, Quarterback (Buffalo Bills) $11,400: Derrick Henry, Running Back, (Baltimore Ravens) $11,000: Khalil Shakir, Wide Receiver (Buffalo Bills) $8,000: Tyler Bass, Kicker (Buffalo Bills) $5,000.
