Monday Night Football Prop Picks, Predictions: Plenty of Value on Two-Game Slate
The NFL gives us two games on Monday night in Week 2. Here are our top prop picks for the special edition of Monday Night Footbal.
Some of the biggest names in the NFL will take center stage on Monday night when the Tennessee Titans travel to play the Buffalo Bills, and the Minnesota Vikings visit the Philadelphia Eagles. Three of these four teams won their matchups in Week 1, with the Titans losing a thriller to the New York Giants.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts ran all over the Detroit Lions, Vikings QB Kirk Cousins and wide receiver Justin Jefferson destroyed the Green Bay Packers’ secondary, the Bills’ defense forced three takeaways of Matthew Stafford and trouned the Los Angeles Rams, and the Titans’ defense sacked New York Giants QB Daniel Jones five times in Week 1. So, where does the value lie among the Week 2 prop picks?
Here are our top prop picks for Monday Night Football matchups between the Titans and Bills, and the Vikings and Eagles (odds via FanDuel Sportsbook and DraftKings Sportsbook).

MNF Prop Predictions
Cook Over 70.5 rushing yards (-115) ★★★★
Perhaps oddsmakers know something we don’t, but this line feels way too low. In the Vikings’ Week 1 win over the Packers, Cook ran the ball 20 times for 90 yards.
In Week 1, the Eagles' defense gave up 181 yards and three touchdowns on the ground to the Detroit Lions. That includes a great 15-carry, 144-yard, and one-touchdown performance from D’Andre Swift. Swift did bust a 50-yard run right at the start of the game, but he still averaged 6.7 yards per carry on his other 14 rushing attempts.
The Vikings’ passing attack is dangerous, and they may need to be relied on more in this game for Minnesota to win. However, as long as Cook gets 15 carries, he is going over this number.

Woods Over 41.5 receiving yards (-114) ★★★
Titans receiver Robert Woods had one of the most disappointing Week 1 performances of any receiver in the entire league. As the presumed No. 1 option for the Titans, he was targeted just twice, and pulled in a single pass for 13 yards.
However, last season, when playing with the Rams, Woods didn't have two consecutive games under 40 yards. He is far from a consistent receiving option, but with Ryan Tannehill down one weapon with running back Dontrell Hilliard out for Week 2, and with the game script saying the Titans will be playing from behind, this is the week that Woods has his breakout game in Tennessee.
Bullock Over 1.5 made field goals (+145) ★★★★
Yes, we’re going to a kicker for our final prop of Monday night. It might not be the most exciting prop, but it offers great value, and that is what is most important.
Titans place kicker Randy Bullock had 10 games where he made two or more field goals in 2021, including the Titans’ 34-31 win over the Bills in October of last season. He averaged 1.625 field goals per game across the entire season. He picked up right where left off in Week 1 of the 2022 campaign, by going 2-for-3 in the Titans’ Week 1 loss to the Giants.
Additionally, the Bills gave up two or more field goals in eight of their 17 regular season games in 2021. The Bills’ defense did a good job of keeping the Rams out of the end zone in Week 1. Look for them to be just as tough in Week 2 and force Tennessee to settle for field goals.
