Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone out there in FA Nation!
While the majority of the DFS community focuses on NBA DFS today, we still have a two-game slate to play around with here on Monday. The Steelers head to Houston in an attempt to lock down a first-round playoff bye and some home field advantage while the Eagles host the Raiders in their quest to earn the No. 1 seed, a first-round bye and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Both favorites have something to play for while their opposition plays for pride and a chance to be the Christmas Grinch for the playoff hopefuls and their fans.
As always, these lineups are for examples only and probably best for just GPP play as cash games on a two-game slate are always a little rough due to the immense player overlap. These picks may be a little chalky with the heavy Steeler load, so if you wanna throw some money into a double up or two, why the heck not? Hopefully you've done a little Christmas morning research and you're all set and ready to go! Best of luck to you all.
