Despite a broken non-throwing hand, Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert will suit up on Monday Night Football in a showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles (-2). The Eagles have lost 2 straight games, both in-conference, while the Chargers have won 4 of their last 5 and get back rookie RB Omarion Hampton on MNF. The Eagbles’ offense has looked inconsistent over the last 5 games, while LA should see Daniel Jones’ recent injury as another great opportunity for them to sneak into the playoffs and make noise this post-season. Let’s break down my best Eagles vs Chargers player prop bet for MNF, while you can also find out our NFL picks for every game this season, including Chris Farley’s Eagles vs Chargers MNF predictions, as he looks to add to his 12-6 run!

Nick Sirianni has taken over play-calling for the Eagles this week after much has been made about the stale offense of late. For me, I interpret that as a big dose of Saquon Barkley that will open up opportunities for Jalen Hurts in the passing game. On the Chargers’ side, Omarion Hampton’s injury really exposed some inadequacies in the Chargers’ offense, and even though Herbert’s injury is to his non-throwing hand, it’s better to limit his dropbacks when possible.
The total sitting at 42.5 tells me that the game script should lend itself to a battle of the running backs and a key stat on 3rd down is putting me over the edge here — both Philadelphia and Los Angeles are bottom 12 in the league on rushing first downs over the last 3 weeks. These are situations where the rush is obvious, and the defenses were unable to come up with the stop. I’m going to lean on these 2 starting RBs having a big role in a low-scoring affair.
