We're all in for a treat as we have two Monday Night Football games tonight.
The first takes place in Western New York, where the Jacksonville Jaguars square off against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium with kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
Beyond spread and total bets, I'm taking a look at Jaguars vs. Bills anytime touchdown scorer props for Monday Night Football.
Here are my two picks for Monday night's game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills.
Gilles Gallant's Jaguars vs. Bills Player Props: Anytime Touchdown Scorers
- Brian Thomas Anytime Touchdown (+255, DraftKings)
- Keon Coleman Anytime Touchdown (+275, Caesars)
Brian Thomas Anytime Touchdown (+255)
Brian Thomas Jr. is such an intriguing option here.
Not only did he catch a touchdown in Week 1, but he’s been the deep threat for the Jaguars through these first two games. Along with that, he’s been running routes on 90% of the dropbacks.
He’s been crushing zone coverage so far this year and the Bills have run zone coverage at a top-10 rate through two games.
According to PFF, the Bills also rank last in defensive success rate when playing in the zone.
Should the Jags’ passing attack finally get back on track, I especially like Thomas to get his second TD of the season.
Keon Coleman Anytime Touchdown (+275)
To continue with the rookie trend, I’m looking at Keon Coleman here.
I think he has the best matchup against Jacksonville’s secondary due to the Jags’ affinity for running Man Coverage. They’ve played man at the highest rate in the NFL through the first two games.
To align perfectly with Coleman’s strengths, he’s also been the most targeted by Josh Allen when the Bills face Man Coverage. Additionally, Coleman has played the most snaps and ran the most routes of any Bills receiver.
He didn’t garner a ton of targets last week because the Bills went up big fairly early. For Monday night, I expect a much closer game and when the Bills get to the red zone, I can see Allen looking to his 6’4” receiver.
