Mims' Monday Night Football Picks: Chargers vs Colts, Justin Herbert, Nick Foles props, over/under, more

Two teams playing out the string on the frozen tundra at Lambeau Field.

The Monday Night Game has the Los Angeles Chargers  against the Indianapolis Colts.  The Chargers are  favored by 4.5 and the total is 45.5. The money line is the Chargers -210 and the Colts +170. The Colts are the home team.

Head Coaching Match Up: Chargers Head Coach Brandon Staley over Colts Head Coach Jeff Saturday.

The last five:  Chargers are 3-2  over their last five and 4-3 on the road. Colts are  1-4 over their last 5 and 2-4 at home.

Prop Bets: Quarterback Justin Herbert  over 282.5 passing yards. The price is -110. Herbert has exceeded the projected total in 4 of his last 5 games. Take him over.  Nick Foles under 229.5 passing yards. The price is -110. Take Foles under.

Consensus: 66% of the money is on the Chargers. The total is 57% over.

The Selection: The Chargers have won 2 straight and are in the hunt for a wild card berth. Colts just suffered a defeat and gave up the largest lead in the history of the NFL in their 39-36 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Take the Chargers  and the over.
