- New Orleans Saints host the Atlanta Falcons as 1.5-point favorites (O/U 47.5) at 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday Night Football, with both teams sitting at 1-2 in the NFC South entering Week 4.
- Chris Olave headlines DFS value plays after being targeted at least 10 times in every game this season, totaling 27 receptions for 375 yards and a score, with his yards per game trailing only Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
- Atlanta Falcons star cornerback A.J. Terrell (groin) is sidelined, while Michael Penix Jr.'s return at quarterback has sparked renewed offensive life for Bijan Robinson and Drake London.
- Kyle Pitts is another McClure pick, after Atlanta targeted the tight end 14 times across two games against New Orleans last season, producing eight catches for 83 yards.
- Tyler Shough and Chris Olave have formed one of the NFL's top QB-WR connections this season, fueling a Saints offense that has scored at least 24 points in all three games.
- Mike McClure, a SportsLine DFS expert with over $2 million in career winnings, used matchup and injury inputs to build his optimal single-game lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings.
Why it matters: DFS players building single-game Monday lineups get a clear value edge on Chris Olave with Terrell out, while Kyle Pitts offers leverage against a Saints defense that has struggled against tight ends. McClure's full card and one under-the-radar 'difference-maker' pick remain gated behind SportsLine's paywall, so casual DFS players only see the surface calls here.
