The Arizona Cardinals hosting Los Angeles Rams Monday night to close out Week 14 of the NFL season. The Rams will need to secure a victory as they are two games behind the Cardinals and would be only one game ahead of the San Francisco 49ers with a loss.
The oddsmaker have this game at a 51.5-point over/under, so we should have an action-packed game. Let us dive in and find out three top plays for the DFS slate on SuperDraft.
The Plays
James Conner, Arizona Cardinals (Champion: 2.65x| Superflex: 1.75x score multiplier)
Conner has stepped up big time since Chase Edmonds hit the IR; he has now scored in six straight games. Additionally, he has had 20-plus carries in three of his last four games. He has even been utilized as a receiver by Kyler Murray when needed. This game does have a high point total at 51.5, and Conner will be heavily involved with the Cardinals offensive game plan like in recent weeks. Obviously, this move is very contingent on Edmonds’ status — If Edmonds is not activated for the game, feel free to go extremely heavy on Conner in lineups. If Edmonds is activated, lower the exposure to Conner and mix the two, but I’ll still be heavier on Conner than Edmonds overall.
Zach Ertz, Arizona Cardinals (Champion: 2.95x| Superflex: 1.95x)
Ertz is a deep dive play but one I love in this game situation. The Los Angeles Rams are currently giving up 10.5 fantasy points per game to tight ends. Ertz has been very consistent since joining the Cardinals, with 5-plus targets in four of six games and 4-plus in five of six. He is averaging 3.4 receptions and 39 receiving yards per game with a 66% catch rate this season.
Cooper Kupp, Los Angeles Rams (Champion: 1.8x| Superflex: 1.2x)
The Rams will be without Darrell Henderson, now on the Reserve/COVID-19 List. That means Matthew Stafford will likely be relying on the receiving core even more. Kupp has a great matchup as he’ll be lining up across from Byron Murphy. Kupp has already been the Rams’ most targeted receiver in every single game this season. He has also led the team in receptions every week besides Week 4, when Van Jefferson had 6 receptions to Kupp’s 5. It’s hard to fade a wide receiver with a 73.5% catch rate who is averaging 113.8 yards per game.
