DraftKings NFL Christmas Lineup: Optimal Picks for Sunday’s Games

QB: Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers


Opponent: vs. Baltimore Ravens


Price: $6,700


With such a small slate, the instinct is probably to save money at quarterback, but I'm fine going with the most expensive option. Big Ben was mostly brutal against the Ravens in Week 9 before somewhat saving his day late in the fourth quarter, but he's back at home, where he is completing 70.47 percent of his throws for 1,636 yards (327.2 per game) and a sparkling 17:3 TD:INT ratio this season. The last time he played vs. Baltimore at home during the regular season, he hung 340 yards and six touchdowns in 2014, and while it would be foolish to expect the same kind of numbers, I'm confident in him at Heinz Field, no matter the matchup.
