Monday Night Football takes us to Foxborough, Massachusetts as the Bears will take on the Patriots. Based on the game total, oddsmakers are once again expecting a low-scoring primetime game, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look for touchdown scorer best bets for both teams. Without further ado, let’s get right into it.
With kickoff set for 8:15 pm ET on ESPN, it’s time to take a look at the best touchdown scorer bets to be made.
New England Patriots touchdown scorer best bet: Rhamondre Stevenson, RB (-130)
Monday Night Football is expected to be a very low-scoring game, as every primetime game seems to be this year, but if one guy is going to find the end zone, it's Rhamondre Stevenson. The Patriots running back has excelled this year and took over as the primary running back recently, with Damien Harris sidelined due to an injury. However, Harris is expected to return for Monday Night Football which is far sooner than many anticipated. Still, Stevenson has proven himself as a hard runner that is excellent at taking contact as he ran for 76 yards and 2 touchdowns last week against the Browns and 161 yards in Week 5 against the Lions.
Stevenson will face a Bears defense that ranks 31st in rushing yards allowed and 29th in rushing touchdowns allowed. New England might not be able to beat the Chicago secondary, so put your bet on Stevenson to score through the Swiss cheese that is the Chicago defensive line.
