- Here’s a look at my free Monday Night Football picks.
Down bad after the Week 1 NFL odds hit you where it hurts? I’m here to (hopefully) help with some ways to make some of that money back.
Hopefully, you sense the sarcasm here, as if you are truly in a bad spot, perhaps you should regroup for Week 2. If you just hit a bit of a skid, there are some areas of opportunity to make a good ROI in tonight’s Monday Night Football game as the San Francisco 49ers host the New York Jets.
The Niners are a 4-point home favorite in this MNF clash as Aaron Rodgers makes his return. Yet, there are more ways to bet on this game than just the spread.
Let’s dive into my best bets for Monday Night Football.
Make These Four MNF Bets in Jets vs 49ers Game
1. 49ers Star Christian McCaffrey Over 75.5 Rushing Yards
I know, we’ve all been monitoring the NFL injury report as Christian McCaffrey has been dealing with a calf issue. McCaffrey is expected to suit up tonight, and if the star is on the field we know he’s going to want the ball.

The Niners indicated that McCaffrey is expecting to tote the rock like a normal game.
“I hope so,” McCaffrey told various NFL news outlets when asked about receiving his normal workload this week.
There may be a bit of value here on McCaffrey’s rushing yards prop at the BetUS sportsbook as skepticism abounds about the playmaker’s status. McCaffrey topped 75.5 rushing yards in 11 games last season.
Look for McCaffrey to go over this number again versus the Jets.
Bet on Christian McCaffrey Over 75.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
2. Niners the Play to Cover -4 ATS vs Jets
While there are props to like on MNF, my best bet in this game is taking the Niners to cover versus the Jets. Not sexy, but I think we are somewhat back where we started before last season with New York.

Despite plenty of hype, I am not sure the Jets are good. There’s no doubt New York Jets made some improvements this offseason, but the Niners are in a different class.
Look for San Francisco to cover the spread in the NFL betting odds.
Bet on 49ers -4 vs Jets on Monday Night Football
3. Aaron Rodgers Goes Over 1.5 TD Passes in Return
This is a bit eerie seeing Rodgers return on Monday Night Football one year after sustaining a season-ending injury at this exact spot. Here’s hoping for better luck the second time around.
Damn man…#Jets QB Aaron Rodgers got emotional talking to Alex Smith about his ruptured Achilles in 2023:
‘I knew when I was on the ground that something was wrong. Sometimes you get drilled, something’s off, you just kind of hope you get up, & it shakes itself out. Oh ok… pic.twitter.com/D5qPGc186r

If the Jets are going to win this game, the squad is going to need to keep pace with the Niners offense. Look for Rodgers to go over 1.5 passing touchdowns in this matchup. A nice bonus is this NFL bet offers a plus return.

4. Niners WR Brandon Aiyuk Scores TD at +170
The offseason has been full of drama, but Brandon Aiyuk did not forget how to catch touchdowns. Aiyuk may not have been happy with his contract status, but the playmaker represents the best value of any Niners player in the anytime TD market.
This story is WILD. 🤯
According to @JayGlazer, Brandon Aiyuk called off a trade to the Steelers in the eleventh hour to stay with the 49ers!
Kyle Shanahan told Aiyuk that he had to make a decision by the end of practice on the day the deal got done. Aiyuk chose to stay in San… pic.twitter.com/CAXBHXLOEO
