Week 16 of the NFL season closes out tonight with a matchup between the Los Angeles Chargers, who go on the road to face the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts will be making yet another QB change ahead of this game with Nick Foles now taking over for Matt Ryan after Ryan had been named the starting QB once Jeff Saturday was hired as interim head coach. The over/under for tonight's game is at 45.5 points, and the Bolts are favored by a field goal roughly. So scoring could be moderate and hopefully, we get a competitive g ame. After having plenty of games impacted by wind, cold temperatures, and even a little bit of snow in Miami, we can look at this game straight on with the safe conditions and just dissect the matchups to formulate our winning DFS lineups.

MVP/CAPTAIN
Everyone has different beliefs about how to construct Showdown lineups. I typically don't utilize too many D/ST's or Kickers at Captain. I also max out my QB exposure at this spot to about 10% of my lineups if building multiple lines. What I prefer targeting are players heavily involved in the passing game that can break the slate with multiple touchdowns. Ekeler fits the bill even as a running back. Out of the backfield, Ekeler averages 6.8 receptions and 8.2 targets per game. Even after a bit of a slow and sluggish start to the season where he didn't score in the team's first three games, he's still collected 14 touchdowns on the year.
