Josh Allen-Joe Burrow DFS & Fantasy Projections

Per Stokastic’s expert projections, Josh Allen ($11,400 on DraftKings) projects for 23.69 and Joe Burrow ($10, 800) for 21.19. Even with Allen coming at a higher price, the models still have him as the more valuable play over Burrow on Monday Night Football. Using Stokastic’s DFS ownership tool, Burrow is looking at about a 49.3% ownership rate and Allen is 54%.

Burrow comes into the star-studded matchup playing some of the best football of his career. He has put up over 20 fantasy points in each of his past two games, including a massive 375-yard, three-touchdown performance in a Week 16 win over the New England Patriots. Thanks to the Steelers’ win over the Ravens on Sunday night, the Bengals can clinch the AFC North with a win over Buffalo.

For Allen and the Bills (12-3), the No. 1 seed in the AFC is in reach. They currently hold the spot and would be granted a first-round bye if they can win the final two games of the season. Allen has been leading the charge all season long and will look to continue to put up eye-opening stats on Monday night. He has been using his legs more and more in recent weeks to exploit defenses, running for a touchdown in three of his last six games.

Because of Allen’s running ability, Stokastic views him as the more valuable play than Burrow for DFS. But this could be a classic quarterback duel.
