Best Vikings at Chargers prop bets

Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 9:03 p.m. ET.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert OVER 0.5 INTERCEPTIONS (-105)

Herber has thrown 6 INTs so far this season, all in the last 5 games with at least 1 in 4 of the last 5. The Vikings have only picked off 2 passes all season and have not had a takeaway defensively since Week 3, which suggests they are due. The near even-money odds are nice.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey OVER 5.5 RECEPTIONS (+115)

The bet gives you great value. McConkey has 16 receptions in his last 2 games, with at least 7 in each of them. He has 6 or more receptions in a game 3 times this season.

TNF: Best ML, ATS and O/U bets

Chargers QB Justin Herbert OVER 15.5 RUSHING YARDS (-120)

This seems like an easy win. Herbert has had 24 or more rushing yards this season in 5 of 7 games. Keep an eye on the lines for alternate rushing yards. The 25+ yards (+194 at FanDuel) could be a good bet as well.

Viking QB Carson Wentz OVER 21.5 PASS COMPLETIONS (+100)

This bet seems like a layup of a bet. Wentz has completed 25 or more passes in 3 consecutive starts.

Vikings WR Justin Jefferson OVER 81.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-115)

Jefferson is averaging 88 yards per game and has topped 80 receiving yards in 3 of his last 5 games (and he had 75 and 79 yards in the other 2). Wentz has targeted him at least 10 times in each of the last 3 games.
