Chargers Saints Prop Bets, MNF Picks

Hunter Henry finds the end zone, Keenan Allen continues his chemistry with Justin Herbert, and Alvin Kamara is the focal point of the passing game. Here are my favorite Chargers Saints prop bets for Monday Night Football here in Week 5. 

For hundreds of Monday Night props and the latest lines, check out BetRivers Sportsbook. And read our Chargers Saints betting report as well.

Hunter Henry Anytime TD Scorer (+165)

After a gruesome injury that kept Henry sidelined all of 2018, Henry is really starting to blossom. He is quickly becoming a focal point of the Chargers offense, and is flashing the ability he showed at Arkansas. 

This is a perfect matchup for Henry. The Saints have struggled against TEs this season, especially in the red zone. The Saints have given up a TD to an opposing TE in all four of their games this season. Henry has yet to score a TD this season, however he has at least seven targets in all but one game, which shows the confidence the Chargers have in him.

Henry gets his first TD of the season on Monday Night for a nice +165 payout at BetRivers.

Keenan Allen OVER 77.5 receiving yards (-112)

Allen has become Mr. Reliable for the L.A Chargers. Keenan currently has 10 or more targets in his last three games, and looks like he has found chemistry with new starting QB Justin Herbert. 

This is another good matchup for the Chargers. The Saints have given up more than 77.5 receiving yards to one receiver in three out of their four games. The Saints have struggled against the pass, so the Herbert to Allen connection should be on tonight. 

Alvin Kamara OVER 6.5 receptions (-112)

Michael Thomas will miss this game due to an altercation with a teammate, which means Drew Brees will have to look elsewhere in the passing game. 

Insert Alvin Kamara, one of the better pass catching RBs in the NFL. The Chargers have allowed at least six receptions to opposing teams starting RBs in their last three games. Kamara has been lights out as a pass catcher out of the backfield this season, racking up 30 receptions, an average of 7.5 per game.

This my favorite bet of the night. We hammer the OVER on this one.
