The Week 4 Monday Night Football matchup sees the New Orleans Saints host the Atlanta Falcons in an NFC South duel. One of the best ways to get in on the game is by playing DraftKings Pick6.
Here are my top Pick6 plays for the Week 4 Monday Night Football matchup.
New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons DraftKings Pick6 Picks for Monday Night Football
Tyler Shough More Than 1.5 Passing Touchdowns
Tyler Shough is off to a great start to his sophomore season. He ranks third in the NFL in both passing yards and passing touchdowns through three weeks. He should throw at least two touchdowns in this game against the Falcons on Monday Night Football. The Atlanta defense has been great this season, but the way to attack them is through the air. Atlanta ranks fifth in the NFL in defensive EPA/rush and third in defensive rushing success rate. Meanwhile, they rank 13th in defensive EPA/dropback. While still solid against the pass, they are nearly impossible to run against. Especially with Travis Etienne out this week, the Saints should rely on Tyler Shough.
So far this season, the way to score against the Falcons has been through the air. Opponents have scored 75% of their touchdowns against Atlanta through the air this season. That is the seventh-highest opponent passing touchdown percentage this season. Shough is averaging 2.7 passing touchdowns per game this season and should throw for at least two scores against Atlanta.
Drake London More Than 78.5 Receiving Yards
Drake London is likely ecstatic to have Michael Penix Jr. back as his quarterback. London was pretty quiet over the first two games with putrid quarterback play. In Week 3 with Penix back at the helm, London had nine catches for 194 yards. He has been sensational whenever Penix has been his quarterback. In 13 career games together, London has at least six catches and 100 receiving yards in eight of those 13 contests. He is now averaging 104.3 receiving yards per game with Penix as his quarterback. London should keep it rolling in Week 4. The Saints’ defense ranks 22nd in EPA/play and 27th in success rate. The Falcons should be able to move it through the air and Penix will look to London early and often.
Brian Robinson Jr. More Than 27.5 Rushing Yards
Bijan Robinson is arguably the best running back in football. Brian Robinson Jr. is the clear backup, but he is making the most of the touches that he does get. Bijan Robinson is so dynamic in the passing game that Brian Robinson is getting almost all of his own touches on the ground. He is averaging 10 carries per game so far this season and is averaging 4.4 yards per carry. As a result, he is averaging 44 rushing yards per game. Brian Robinson Jr. has at least 31 rushing yards in all three games this season and should hit that mark for the fourth straight game against New Orleans. When Bijan Robinson leaves the field, opposing defenses seem to take a sigh of relief, and Brian Robinson has punished those defenses for doing so. He should have another productive day and clear this number for the fourth straight game to start the season.
