What a wild week of games. There were a few shocking upsets and also a few weird games. Going into the Week 6 Monday Night Football matchup, we have the Los Angeles Chargers at home taking on the Dallas Cowboys. Here are my plays for tonight’s game.

Check out the latest episodes of the JCPod and Fridays Captain By A Hook for my full breakdowns. All odds are from FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM.

Straights

Chargers moneyline (+108)

This is a revenge game for Kellen Moore. To go along with that, the Chargers will be getting Austin Ekeler back for this game. When the Cowboys fall behind, that’s where their struggles have been this season. They are very good when they are ahead, but not when they are down. Give me the Chargers to win this game on Monday Night Football in Week 6.

Props

Justin Herbert over 11.5 rush yards (-113)

I love low quarterback rushing totals, especially with athletic guys. Herbert has gone over 11 or more rushing yards in every game but one this year. Herbert may need to be on the move a bit as well due to the Cowboys pass rush, so I will be taking his rushing over.

Jake Ferguson over 35.5 receiving yards (-113)

Dak Prescott loves his tight ends. Ferguson is second on the team in receptions this year. I am a bit more nervous about this bet, but the Chargers have proven that sometimes they like to not play defense. Give me Ferguson to be able to go over 35.5 yards receiving. He has done it two times in the last three games.

Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day

We FINALLY got a win on the board yesterday, and man did that feel great and much needed. SO many close calls, and now we got a W. For this week’s Monday Night Football nasty boy, I got odds of +707, boosted to 1060 with a 50% boost. This nasty boy is Chargers HEAVY:

  • Chargers ML (+110)
  • Ekeler anytime TD (-220)
  • Austin Ekeler over 32.5 receiving yards (-110)
  • Austin Ekeler over 51.5 rushing yards (-110)
  • Keenan Allen over 60+ receiving yards (-320)

Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY
