Eagles vs. Chargers Prop Bets: Hurts Looks to Right Eagles’ Ship, Hampton Returns for Bolts?

• A.J. Brown caught at least 110 yards of passes in consecutive games

• Omarion Hampton could make his return from a lingering leg injury

• The Eagles gave up 281 rushing yards to the Chicago Bears last weekend

The Philadelphia Eagles are visiting the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football, which gives me an opportunity to share my best primetime player prop bets for NFL Week 14.

The Birds are hoping to avoid their third straight loss following an 8-2 start. A.J. Brown has started to heat up, but Philly’s dominant defense will be impacted by the loss of Jalen Carter.

On the other side, Justin Herbert is doing what he can to keep his team afloat, but he’s been let down by poor protection from his offensive line and a newfound turnover habit. LA also has a stout defense, but is coming under the threat of losing its playoff spot in a crowded AFC.

Both of these teams are Super Bowl hopefuls that need to validate their statuses. With those stakes at hand, here are my best Eagles vs. Chargers prop bets and picks for MNF in Week 14.

Omarion Hampton Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+185) at BetMGM Sportsbook 

This is the first of two touchdown bets involving Chargers players—here’s why. Hampton scored two touchdowns in the first four games of the season before suffering a leg injury in the fifth. This is his first game back, and when last seen, he was the primary back in the offense.

The Chargers have thrown the ball a ton with Herbert, but coach Jim Harbaugh prefers to operate a run-first offense. Eagles star defensive tackle Jalen Carter is out without injuries on both shoulders, which means that running the ball should be a valid approach near the goal line.

Kimani Vidal Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+333) at BetMGM Sportsbook

Vidal took over as the lead back for Hampton after he was injured, and after being held out of the end zone in his first two games as the primary option, he scored in three of his last six games. That means that history suggests both players have a near-50 percent chance, or +100 odds, of scoring in a given game (omitting the context of the matchups.

Vidal has three games with at least 117 rushing yards and one with 95 in his seven games as the Chargers’ starting back. Hedging (placing bets of different amounts to win the same amount) with Vidal and Hampton feels like it could pay dividends, since only one player needs to score in order for this to result in a profit.

Jalen Hurts Over 192.5 Passing Yards (-110) at BetMGM Sportsbook

Hurts and the Eagles offense have been wildly inconsistent, extremely frustrating, and totally unpredictable. However, given that this is a desperate situation, and the defense is hamstrung by the loss of Carter, I’m cautiously optimistic that Hurts will shoulder more responsibility in the offense.

Last year’s Super Bowl MVP went over this line in back-to-back games and in five of his last eight. Saquon Barkley hasn’t been able to get going all year, and the Chargers are capable of ensuring he’s held in check, leading to a potentially strong night for Hurts.

Ladd McConkey Over 47.5 Receiving Yards (-110) at BetMGM Sportsbook

Yes, the Eagles have a strong secondary. This is still an extremely low line for McConkey, who averaged 56.9 receiving yards per game in a down year and still went over this line in five of his last seven games, albeit going under in back-to-back outings.

The loss of Carter not only affects Philly’s ability to stuff the run, but also its capacity to rush the passer. McConkey realistically only needs three or four catches to get past this line, and as the number-one target in the offense, that doesn’t feel like too large an ask.
