If you’re in the market for picks for tonight’s Monday Night Football doubleheader, you’re certainly in the right place. The Green Bay Packers are looking to extend their winning streak against the New York Giants and are nearly a touchdown favorite.
But if you’re looking to make Packers vs. Giants bets but don’t want to pick a side, here are our top touchdown scorer bets for this matchup.
Packers vs. Giants Touchdown Scorer Bets
Jordan Love (+450 at DraftKings)
Soppe: Picking a quarterback who tends to operate in the pocket isn’t my traditional path, but this is a matchup play. The Giants are the second blitz-heaviest defense in the league, yet they are the 12th-worst at creating pressure.
If they are bringing an extra defender, that rules out a spy in the middle of the field. We don’t expect Aaron Jones (knee) or Christian Watson (hamstring) to play this week, thus giving Love even more reason to keep his ball in the hands when the Packers near the end zone.

AJ Dillon is plenty capable of punching in a short score, but that’s not exactly news. If this aggressive Giants defense sells out to stop Dillon inside the 10-yard line, Love (six games with a 10+ yard rush this season) has a shot to cash us a nice ticket!
Bearman: Since I took the obvious one in Titans vs. Dolphins, let’s go for a long shot in the other MNF game.
I have no faith the Giants can score at all, and trying to pick a Packers WR is like playing roulette. So let’s get crazy and pick Jordan Love to run one in.
Jalin Hyatt (+550 at FanDuel)
Blewis: I gave out the over on his longest reception in our player props article, so why not pick a touchdown scorer bet that’s correlated with a pick I’ve already made?
Jalin Hyatt has big play ability, with an average of 19.4 yards per reception and an average depth of target of nearly 25 yards, but he hasn’t scored a touchdown yet this season.
Hyatt is coming off his best game as a pro, with six receptions for 109 yards against the New England Patriots, and with the Giants at 4-8, their goal should be to develop their young players for the rest of the season. Coming out of their bye week, maybe they’ll make it a priority to get Hyatt more involved.
