You've come to the correct place if you're playing a Sunday Week 7 DFS lineup for the Los Angeles Chargers vs. Seattle Seahawks game. To determine the most likely outcomes, including whether players are poised to thrive more than predicted or fall short of expectations, we've examined each team's highest-probability game scripts.

The suggested fantasy football lineup below seeks to lock in a relatively high floor while maximising potential (for tournaments, 50/50, or head-to-head competitions).

Chargers Points to Consider

Every NFL season, a select few plays determine the fate of each team. Some pivots change direction, guiding struggling teams towards the postseason's promised land. Other reverses, such as the 7-0 Cardinals from the previous season, are the result of a receiver failing to turn around to grab a pass in the end zone.

We can't know for sure "what would have happened" if events had taken a different turn, of course. However, in the Chargers' instance, there have been three jarring turns. In Week 2, while leading the Chiefs 17-7, they conceded a fiercely contested 41-yard touchdown pass to the seldom-used Justin Watson on third-and-10. Herbert suffered a rib injury in the next quarter, making him less than fine for the remainder of the game and the Jaguars' rout the following week.

After that, when they were down 1-2 and without their top receiver Keenan Allen, they bravely converted a 4th-and-2 at their own 43 to help fend off the Texans. They then gambled some more to defeat the Browns from behind and defeated the Broncos three times on Monday night.

Every NFL season, a select few plays decide which team will advance or fail. Some pivots alter course, leading struggling clubs to the promised land of the postseason. Others are the consequence of a receiver failing to turn around to catch a ball in the end zone, like the 7-0 Cardinals from the previous season.

Of all, we can't know for sure "what would have happened" if the path of events had been different. In the case of the Chargers, there have been three startling turns. In Week 2, with the Chiefs trailing 17-7, they let up a closely fought 41-yard touchdown throw on third-and-10 to the rarely used Justin Watson. The Jaguars' rout the following week was made more difficult by Herbert's rib injury, which occurred in the following quarter.

Seahawks Considerations

What a city is Seattle! Even though DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett combined for just four catches for 51 pointless yards last weekend, they still managed to defeat Arizona. That's quite an accomplishment for a group that didn't anticipate being tied for the NFC West lead going into Week 7.

Regardless of his price, Kenneth Walker III must be a solid DFS prospect. His three-down back skills could complement the Chargers' defence, which ranks second-worst in the NFL in allowing 5.6 yards per run. However, how reliable is Geno Smith over the air? That partially depends on how we anticipate this game to play out.

By halftime, if Los Angeles has Seattle playing catch-up, we might place a little more faith in a Metcalf or Lockett comeback effort. Or, using Noah Fant, we could shoot for less money (12 targets in his last two games). Only five or six (if we count the TD-dependent Will Dissly) acceptable DFS options left in this top-heavy offence.

Best DFS lineup for the Chargers vs. Seahawks matchup

We're playing DraftKings' "Showdown Captain Mode" today, which has five Flex players and one player who earns 1.5 times his score output.

The following NFL betting advice is based on PFN's in-house predictive analytics, which were applied to decades' worth of historical NFL data. I've created dozens of models using this data that demonstrate actionable probability of better-than-expected and worse-than-expected outcomes.

There are still some potential moving components as of publication time on Friday morning. In light of this, we'll prepare a number of injury-related backup plans, depending on how Sunday morning unfolds.

Here are the automatic picks for the time being, starting with Ekeler in our Captain position ($11,200 ordinarily, $16,800 as Captain). For him, this game was created. We have no control over whether he succeeds or fails. He fits the probabilities the best, thus.

After that, we'll lock up Walker ($8,200) and Herbert ($10,800). Nothing unusual. Two costly players with high ceilings. They'll complete the task, barring any unforeseen circumstances. If they're anything like me, they'll do it while grinning.

The remaining amount for three places is $14,200. Depending on the state of the game, I have five scenarios. Have you prepared? I'll wait, okay.

Finished now? Great.
