5 minMonday Night Football Prop Bets: Can James Cook, Ja'Marr Chase Get Open on MNF?
We have a nice two-game Monday Night Football slate for NFL tonight and I have put together some of my favorite targets for receptions for them. These are my favorite three when accounting for odds, hit rates and overall matchups. Add these to your parlays for tonight’s games.
Monday Night Football Prop Bets
Pick: Travis Etienne Jr. 3+ Receptions Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The first player I am looking to target is Travis Etienne, and I like him for 3+ Receptions. Etienne has been extremely consistent in the passing game over the last few seasons. He has now recorded three or more catches in 11 of the last 12 road games & in 16 of the last 20 games overall. He has been running a lot of routes, and should be involved a good bit in the pass game again tonight as 5.5-point road underdogs at Buffalo. Etienne recorded four receptions against them last season, and the Bills have allowed the following numbers to RB1s in the first two weeks: De’Von Achane seven receptions, James Conner three receptions.
Pick: Ja'Marr Chase 6+ Receptions Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The next player I am targeting is Ja’Marr Chase for 6+ Receptions. Although Chase’s numbers and targets are down so far this season, I think he’s in for a big night tonight vs the worst pass defense over the last season or so. In games with Joe Burrow that the Bengals have won, Chase has gone for 6+ Receptions in 16 of the last 20 games avg 11.2 targets. Malik Nabers just caught 10 balls on 18 targets last week, and in Week 1, we saw Mike Evans (5) and Chris Godwin (6) both hit their receptions lines. Expect Chase to be targeted early and often tonight.
Pick: James Cook 2+ Receptions Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The next player I like for receptions is James Cook for 2+ receptions. Cook gas gone for 2+ Receptions in six of the last seven home games and in 10 of the last 13 games overall. He’s averaging 3.5 targets over the last 10 games & I expect him to see at least three more tonight. Last year vs. the Jags, we saw Cook catch three passes on four targets. In Week 1, the Jags allowed De’Von Achane to catch seven passes, which means Cook could also be in for a nice night in the pass game.
