Morning Coffee: FanDuel Best Bet For Monday Night Football

Follow| Archive

Welcome to October! 

While we officially turned the page on the calendar on Saturday, this is my first Morning Coffee column of the month, and I’ll start it with a confession:

There’s no such thing as too much coffee today.

Between work commitments, family life, and putting the finishing touches on a home renovation project that was supposed to be complete in August, I’ll be the first to admit it feels like I don’t have much left in the tank at this moment.

That will change.

In the meantime, my primary focus is to pick up where I left off last night with a 5-1 run to close out Sunday and improve to 17-7 with my best bets for Week 4.

That means finding another winner with my FanDuel Best Bet for Monday Night Football. 

So, it’s time to pour another cup and get to work. 

Here’s the Morning Coffee for Monday October 3rd, 2022.

FanDuel Best Bet For Monday Night Football

At first glance earlier this week, my initial inclination was to bet the Los Angeles Rams to beat the San Francisco 49ers outright as a +104 money line underdog tonight.

The 49ers are 1-2 after ugly losses to the Chicago Bears and Denver Broncos over the first three weeks.

Jimmy Garoppolo went 1-of-10 on third down in last week’s loss to Denver.

49ers’ HC Kyle Shanahan told reporters that LT Trent Williams will be sidelined “some time” due to a high ankle sprain.

Most importantly, Trent Williams is sidelined with a high ankle sprain, while Arik Armstead and Javon Kinlaw are both questionable on the defensive side of the football.

However, San Francisco opened as a 1.5-point home favourite at FanDuel for tonight’s game, and that number hasn’t moved.

So how could a 1-2 team that is banged up and coming off an ugly loss be a short favourite
