The Packers are favored by a couple of touchdowns on Monday Night Football at Lambeau Field, going up against a Saints team that’s decimated with injuries. It is a short week for Green Bay, though, with a monster NFC North matchup against the Vikings looming on Sunday. Tough spot to lay this many points, but it’d be a shocker if the Pack don’t grind out a victory at home. I’m looking to Josh Jacobs to play a key role in the win, and building a Same Game Parlay around Green Bay’s running back.
Jacobs has been the centerpiece of the Packers’ offense this season, totaling 13 touchdowns over the last 10 games. He’s a heavy favorite to find the end zone again on Monday, in a matchup in which the game script should really favor Jacobs. We’ll tie things together with Jacobs going for 70-plus rushing yards in the game, which he’s accomplished in nine of 14 games this season. Going up against the NFL’s 27th-ranked rush defense in terms of yards allowed, while playing at home as a 14-point favorite, should be a cushy spot for Jacobs to rip off some yardage and find his way to pay dirt in a victory for the Pack.
