Another iteration of doubleheader Monday Night Football in the NFL kicks off with the Buccaneers on the road to Detroit, taking on the Lions (-5.5). As bettors, we are spoiled with this total sitting at 52.5 and can only hope it matches the high-scoring affair we saw on Thursday Night Football this week. Baker Mayfield continues his push for MVP consideration, leading the league in 4th-quarter comebacks (4) to go along with an absurd 12 TDs to just 1 INT. Goff has a chance to thrust himself into the top 3 of that field with a win MNF to pair with his 14 TDs and 2 INTs. Let’s get into my best Buccaneers vs Lions player prop bet for MNF, while you can also check out our expert NFL picks for BOTH MNF matchups.

There is going to be a million ways to attack the skill positions players of the Detroit Lions on MNF, but allow me to indulge you on an inverse correlation SGP! I’m laying only 0.5u on this, but I believe it’s more fun than laying 0.5u on any of these TD scorers at chalked odds. The Bucs defense has allowed the 4th-most receptions and 3rd-most yards per game to opposing RBs this season, so the matchup is a favorable one for Gibbs.
Outside of an outlier Week 1 against Green Bay where he had 10 receptions, Gibbs has been steadily in the 2-3 range for most of the season, and he’s cleared the yardage in 3 of 6 so far. He has the ability to hit his 20 yards in one reception, but when you remove his outlier Week 1 against the Packers, he’s only running 12 routes per game. This is a great spot for MNF at very enticing odds.
