Top NFL DFS picks for Bills vs. Patriots
We can tell you that Bills quarterback Josh Allen is one of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Thursday Night Football. Last Thursday against the Lions, he finished with 253 passing yards, two touchdowns and an interception, but he also rushed for 78 yards and another score. Overall this season, he has 3,183 passing yards and 23 touchdowns to go with 561 rushing yards and five more rushing touchdowns.
Opposing quarterbacks didn’t run much on the Patriots, but when they did, they were effective. The Pats have allowed 270 rushing yards and two touchdowns on just 43 opposing passing attempts. Allen also has the NFL’s highest yards-per-carry average at 6.9.
Part of McClure’s optimal NFL DFS strategy also includes lining up Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis. He had four receptions for 38 yards at Thanksgiving against Detroit. Davis has the highest target depth (15.9) of any player with at least 50 targets this season and the New England defense has allowed the second-highest average target depth for opposing offenses.
Davis has the longest reception of any player this season, a 98-yard touchdown against the Steelers in Week 5. Since Week 10, he has 15 catches on 22 targets for 199 yards and a touchdown. You can see the rest of McClure’s NFL DFS tips here.
