Welcome to our new series covering RIVAL Fantasy Bingo picks for NFL Week 9! We will be covering how to play and the strategies to win.
Fantasy Bingo is a spin on the classic game Bingo but the goal is to match achievements, not numbers. You will build a DFS lineup for the weekly games to unlock the achievements and fill in those squares. You can win by getting five in a row, all four corners, or an entire card blackout.
The prize pool for the weekly slate is distributed among all of the winning cards. They are broken down in two ways. 56% of the prize pool to cards that have five in a row – vertically, horizontally, and diagonally. 44% of the prize pool is for cards that just cover the four corners. Also, the prize pool gets larger as more bingo cards are entered. You can have up to 100 max cards all with different lineups created. Check here for the updated rules and scoring.

RIVAL Fantasy Bingo Strategy
With setting a lineup to similar DFS Apps, stacking is the way to go. You would want to have your choice of quarterback paired with one to two pass-catchers. For example: Brock Purdy paired with Christian McCaffrey and Brandon Aiyuk. Two high-usage weapons for Purdy. You can always run it back with one pass-catching player from the opposing team or just keep your stack naked.
Now, what to do with the other roster spots to fill? One way to go since there is no salary cap for the lineups on RIVAL Fantasy is to target the players with high usage rates. RIVAL Fantasy Bingo is all about achievements and players who can hit multiple in a game. We want to use players who can do it all.
Kickers are players too and they are on the Fantasy Bingo Cards. Not every card will be positive for them though. Your card may have a kicker that needs to miss three field goals during a game. You just won't know until your card is generated after your lineup is submitted. That is the tricky part.

RIVAL Fantasy Bingo Picks
CeeDee Lamb will most likely be a very popular option across all DFS platforms and for good reason. He will be going up against a Philadelphia Eagles defense that is one of the worst at stopping opposing wide receivers. With that, Lamb is currently holding an 88% catchable target rate on the season which isn't surprising when you look at his past two games.
In Week 6, he recorded seven receptions off of seven targets for 117 receiving yards. In Week 7, before the bye week, he recorded 12 receptions off of 14 targets for 158 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Fresh off of a bye week and facing the Eagles' defense, Lamb can help fill out the Bingo Card that may require some tall tasks to be completed.
If CeeDee Lamb is having success week-to-week, that means Dak Prescott is having success. Before the bye week, Dak Prescott recorded his best game of the season with 25 pass completions for 304 passing yards, and four passing touchdowns in Week 7. Overall, Prescott has had a pretty successful season as he holds a 71% completion rate with 10 touchdowns and five interceptions.
He is able to find his receivers and has minimized mistakes as his interceptions are inflated due to throwing three interceptions in Week 5 versus the San Francisco 49ers. What gives CeeDee Lamb his boost, gives Dak his as the Eagles currently rank 28th versus opposing quarterbacks. This sets up the Dallas Cowboys offense to have what should be a good Sunday.
Breece Hall is going to be a running back you can rely on almost every week now. He has taken over full control of the backfield for the New York Jets. In the past three games, Hall's rush attempt share has not gone lower than 60%. In Week 5, he had a share of 76%, the highest for him on the season.
In Week 7, he had a poor running performance with 12 carries for 17 receiving yards, but he dominated the receiving game. He recorded six receptions on nine targets for 76 yards and one touchdown. Hall has a great matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers who rank 25th against opposing running backs. With a projection line of 62.4 rushing yards and 20.1 receiving yards, it's hard to pass up on Breece Hall and the workload he gets every game.
