Same Game Parlay for Monday Night Football
Christian Watson 60+ Receiving Yards (+162), Josh Jacobs TD (-290), and Saints +14.5 (-122)
Leg 1: Josh Jacobs anytime touchdown (-290)
This season, Josh Jacobs has been among the most effective running backs. After having a rough season in his final season with the Raiders, the sixth-year veteran is having a successful campaign. Jacobs enters this game tied for eighth place in total touchdowns (13), and fourth in rushing touchdowns (12).
Eleven of Jacobs’ 12 running touchdowns so far have occurred since Week 8, which is the league’s longest streak. In two of his previous three games at Lambeau Field and four of his last seven games overall, he has exceeded his anytime touchdowns prop.
Additionally, this season, the New Orleans run defense has had trouble stopping opposition ground games. The Saints give up the third-most rushing touchdowns to opponent running backs (14), and they give up the sixth-most rushing yards per game (134.4).
In three of their last five games, New Orleans has let opponent running backs go over a 0.5 anytime touchdown prop bet.
Leg 2: Saints +14.5 (-122)
The Packers are totally focused on the playoffs going into this game. Although the team’s Wild Card berth is the most likely option, a division title is still conceivable. Only four of Green Bay’s ten victories this season would have covered a 14.5-point spread. The Packers’ primary goal will be to win, not necessarily cover a spread of two touchdowns or more.
If the Saints have received some assistance from other teams going into Monday night, they might also be playing for their postseason life in this game. Under interim head coach Darren Rizzi, New Orleans has performed admirably, going 3-2 both straight up and against the spread. Under Rizzi’s leadership, they have covered in three of the last four games as an underdog.
Furthermore, the Saints have only lost by more than 14 points three times this season. But against clubs that were probably headed to the playoffs, all three of those games featured quarterback Spencer Rattler. However, Rizzi was not the head coach of any of those.
Both the coaches on the sidelines and the players on the field will be trying out for their jobs next season, even if the Saints are eliminated by kickoff on Monday. This game ought to be within 15 points for New Orleans. When given eight days off, road underdogs with lines between +13.5 and +16.5 have a 6-2-1 record against the spread since 2003.
Leg 3: Christian Watson Receiving Yards 60+ (+162)
In the second half of the season, Christian Watson has emerged as a sort of focal point in Green Bay’s passing assault. The third-year wide receiver is hoping to build on his recent accomplishments against a questionable Saints defense, having already set a new career best in receiving yards.
In terms of throwing targets (37), receiving yards (463), and air yards (687), Watson tops all Packers receivers. He has accomplished this in spite of Watson’s failure to catch any of the three passes that were thrown to him in a Week 12 game against San Francisco. This season, he leads the Packers by a considerable margin in yards per reception (21.4). Watson should be able to surpass this prop bet total because Love frequently looks on his way downfield.
Watson is up against a Saints defense that gave up the fifth-highest number of receiving yards (2,430) and the fifth-highest number of passing yards (242.2) per game. In six of its last seven games, New Orleans has saw at least one enemy wide receiver surpass 60 receiving yards.
