Packers vs Giants: Best NFL TD scorer bets for Monday Night Football Week 14

Week 14 of the NFL season closes with a Monday Night Football double-header. Green Bay Packers and New York Giants face off.

In Week 14 of the NFL season, Monday Night Football will feature a double-header for the last time in 2023. The Tennessee Titans (4-8) will face the Miami Dolphins (9-3) on ESPN, while on ABC, the Green Bay Packers (6-6) will take on the New York Giants (4-8) in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

The Packers head to New York with a three-game winning streak and 4-1 in their last five games. After a 2-5 start, they are in the playoff race for a Wild Card spot in the NFC. Quarterback Jordan Love has been playing his best football of the season, throwing eight touchdowns to zero interceptions during the winning streak. The Packers are in the playoff hunt with five games to go, none of which are against teams with a winning record as of Week 13.

The Giants come into Monday Night Football after their bye, having won their last two games over New England and Washington. New York's defense tallied nine takeaways in those two wins combined. Backup quarterback Tommy DeVito has posted a quarterback rating over 100 in each of those wins. But the Giants still have the worst offense in the NFL by yards per game and the fifth-worst defense.

Green Bay needs a win on the road on MNF to keep pace in the NFC playoff race and potentially catch division-leading Detroit. New York is looking to string together three wins after starting the season 2-8.

The Giants have allowed more rushing touchdowns than all but one team in 2023. Their rushing defense is also fourth-worst in the league with 136.1 yards per game allowed. The Packers' rushing attack is averaging more than 120 yards per game over their last five matchups. The Packers will likely focus on the running game once again, and running back Aaron Jones returning after five weeks.

Saquon Barkley leads the Giants in touchdowns with five total this season. New York's rushing attack has struggled on the winning streak, but could get relief this week. Green Bay's rushing defense is third-worst in the league in yards allowed, and Barkley could have a big role in New York's game plan on Monday Night Football.

Jayden Reed gets the nod for the Packers as the Giants have allowed lots of production to slot receivers recently. Reed could have great opportunities to score on Monday Night Football.

Jalin Hyatt could potentially be New York's best choice for scoring outside of Barkley. His speed could make a difference on Monday Night Football.
