Bet These 4 MNF Picks for Saints vs Chiefs Game
1. Ride With NOLA to Cover ATS
The Chiefs enter this matchup at 4-0, but it has not been pretty. Kansas City tends to squeak out wins, and we’re expecting more of the same on Monday Night Football.
All four of the Chiefs’ wins this season have been by a touchdown or less. New Orleans is more than capable of pulling off the upset, but Kansas City is the overall stronger squad.
After starting the season 2-0, the Saints have dropped two straight games. Look for New Orleans to keep this one close.

2. Chiefs RB Kareem Hunt Over 46½ Rushing Yards
It’s like he never left. The Chiefs finally turned over the backfield to Kareem Hunt in Week 4.
Kareem Hunt
– RB1 in KC
– 16 touches in debut
– 4.93 yards per carry
– 85 total yards in game 1He’ll be TD dependent but should see 12-15+ total touches weekly.
He’s not prime Kareem Hunt, but he’s the best running back they have in KC.pic.twitter.com/g9y8qbaXCZ

Hunt posted 14 carries for 69 yards against the Chargers. The sportsbook has Hunt’s rushing yards props set at 46½. I like Hunt to hit the over as one of my top MNF game props.
Bet on Kareem Hunt Over 46½ (-110)
3. Saints WR Chris Olave Over 61½ Receiving Yards
Saints wideout Chris Olave has three straight games that have topped 80 yards. The playmaker’s receiving yards prop is still set relatively low at 61½ versus the Chiefs. Take the over on Olave’s receiving yards prop.
Chris Olave over the last three weeks:

4. Kareem Hunt to Score Touchdown vs the Saints
We outlined why we like Hunt earlier, but the reality is the Chiefs do not have many options with Isiah Pacheco. You can once again expect a heavy dose of Hunt against the Saints. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid indicated the team still has a lot of faith in Hunt.
“He did well,” Reid told NFL news outlets. “I thought he was pretty accurate with the holes that he it. I think we all have a lot of trust in Kareem since he’d been here and we know how he’s wired. He’s been able to pick up stuff pretty quick.”
Look for Hunt to find the end zone against New Orleans. I like Hunt’s anytime touchdown as one of the
best NFL game props MNF.
Bet on Kareem Hunt to Score 1+ Touchdowns (+129)
