Monday Night Football in Week 9 is genuinely an intriguing matchup: Los Angeles Chargers (+2) vs New York Jets. The Jets have managed to stay above .500 with Zach Wilson at the helm as the defense continues to keep them in games. The Chargers are one of the surprises this season sitting at 3-4 in a year many expected Justin Herbert to take the leap into that top tier of QB. The Jets offensive line is cause for concern, but it looks like LG Laken Tomlinson and Center Joe Tippmann will play for New York.
Check out our Los Angeles Chargers vs New York Jets predictions
Quentin Johnston under 33.5 receiving yards (-110)
Line available on Bet365 sportsbook at the time of publishing.
Johnston is coming off his best performance of the season and highest snap count, but previous to that, he’s never hit this line. Primetime against the Jets is a tough spot for the rookie to over achieve 2 weeks in a row, and a lower scoring game should pull back the reins on the passing game. I’d play this down to 31.5 for 1U

Breece Hall over 2.5 receptions (-130)
Line available on Bet365 sportsbook at the time of publishing.
Hall’s presence in the passing game has been a breath of fresh air for Zach Wilson. He’s hit this line in 4 straight games and the Jets are 3-1 in that span. The Chargers allow the 2nd most receptions per game to opposing RB’s and the most targets overall. This is a great spot that I don’t drink the juice on. 1U
