Bengals vs. Chargers best bets, player props, anytime TD scorers for SNF: Big nights expected from Ja'Marr Chase, Ladd McConkey

6 hours ago 1

Week 11 SNF bets are coming to you live from Los Angeles, where Joe Burrow and the Bengals (4-6)  meet Justin Herbert and the Chargers (6-3).

It’s getting late early for Cincinnati’s playoff hopes, and they’ll need to go on quite a run to land an AFC Wild Card berth. The Bengals trail the Steelers (7-2) by a month’s worth of losses and stand very little chance of winning the AFC North.

The Chargers trail the Kansas City Chiefs (9-0) by three games in the AFC West because it’s hard to keep up with teams that don’t lose. However, their wild card odds are extremely favorable compared to Cincinnati’s.

Best player prop and ATTD scorer bets for Bengals vs. Chargers on SNF

On odds boards at NFL betting sites, Los Angeles is favored by -1.5 and the over/under sits around 47.5. Beyond the spread and totals, there are some exciting SNF prop bets and anytime TD scorer bets for Bengals and Chargers:

Mike Gesicki Anytime TD Scorer

The lingering uncertainty around WR2 Tee Higgins' hamstring injury continues to make Mike Gesicki TD scorer wagers tantalizing. Ja’Marr Chase will continue breaking big plays and looking like the NFL's fastest and most dangerous WR in the open field. Higgins' absence has changed the target share significantly. With Higgins sidelined, Gesicki has feasted on 23 targets in the past three weeks. Even if Higgins returns on SNF, he may be on a snap count. Gesicki seems likely to continue getting lots of targets, and Joe Burrow is absolutely slinging it this season. 

Ladd McConkey Anytime TD Scorer

Rookie WR Ladd McConkey has quickly earned the trust of QB Justin Herbert and the Chargers coaching staff. Averaging 13.3 YPC and scoring 4 TDs this season (including a highlight-reel worthy 60 yarder), the Georgia product has helped pace a Chargers passing game that doesn’t have Keenan Allen for the first time since 2012. He leads the Chargers with 492 receiving yards. The Bengals pass defense has been an issue this season, ranking 23rd in yards surrendered per game. They’ll be tested deep by Quentin Johnston and McConkey.

Ja'Marr Chase OVER 76.5 Receiving Yards

Ever since the Bengals drafted Chase out of LSU he’s been elite. Chase has scoring jaunts of 70,70, and 63 yards and a whopping 10 TDs total this season. Chase is only 19 yards short of cresting the 1,000-yard mark, and his 14.9 YPC clip speaks to how hard he is to stop when he gets the ball in space. Fresh off a 264-yard receiving game vs. Baltimore, you don’t have to be a riverboat gambler to imagine Chase making some big plays on SNF. The Chargers defense has surrendered only 12 TDs this season, but its hands will be full with Chase and Burrow.

Will Dissly OVER 32.5 Receiving Yards

The Bengals' season would look a lot different if their defense wasn't ranked 23rd, and they'd had a different fate in even just a few of the one-score games they've lost. However, Bill Parcells is right: You are what your record says you are. The Cincinnati D's inability to keep WRs and TEs covered is a good reason to consider making this Chargers prop bet. While nobody is going to confuse Dissly for Antonio Gates, nobody is going to confuse the Bengals defense with one that does well against the pass, either. Dissly netted five catches for 30 yards on six targets last week, and even though his 8.2 YPC doesn’t mean he's a big-chunk play kind of guy, he may be worth targeting for Week 11 SNF props.
