  • The Rams play the Bengals to end NFL Week 3 action on Monday, September 25 in Cincinnati, Ohio and there are plenty of MNF props to consider

  • Read below for analysis and our top Rams vs Bengals props to bet for Monday Night Football

It’s been a strange couple of weeks for both Los Angeles and Cincinnati. The Bengals have had their issues with Joe Burrow injury concerns and inconsistent play. Los Angeles won their opener but faced a nasty reality against San Francisco. What will happen on Monday? Okay, let’s read on for some Rams vs Bengals props.

These two teams have been sputtering a bit offensively, but the bigger concern is Cincinnati. With Joe Burrow having calf and leg issues, there is a true concern about the offense. This carries a ripple effect on the defense and all through the MNF props considerations.

As they meet on Monday, it’s the Bengals that are still set as 2-point favorites in the contest. Let’s look at the best Week 3 Rams vs Bengals player props and scoring props available below for your Los Angeles vs Cincinnati picks.

The weather forecast is calling for mostly clear skies, 9 mph winds and a temperature of 70 degrees, so there should be no major weather concerns affecting the prop markets. ABC Network is carrying the broadcast in the US, with streaming available through ESPN and ESPN+. DAZN is carrying the game in Canada.

Rams vs Bengals Prop #1: Matthew Stafford Over 23.5 Completions

With the Los Angeles Rams not having a higher yield rushing option, Matthew Stafford has to spread the ball around. Through two weeks, he has averaged 29 completions a game and a whopping 46.5 attempts a contest. Yes, the Rams need a little balance, but even a few more running plays may not keep Stafford from slinging the ball 35-40+ times on Monday night. Cincinnati has allowed 385 yards rushing, but Los Angeles likes to utilize short passing in substituting for a running game.

This is a risk. After all, maybe the Rams figure out a better balance in a potentially closer game. Also, there lies a possibility that Los Angeles could win this game with some ease in the Rams vs Bengals picks. Pleasant weather will help the passing game. Do not be surprised to see Stafford air it out against the 32nd-ranked Cincinnati defense.

Rams vs Bengals Prop Picks: Matthew Stafford over 23.5 completions (-115), 1 unit, Over 252.5 yards (EVEN), 1 unit.

Rams vs Bengals Prop #2: Puka Nacua Anytime Touchdown

The crazy part about the first two weeks of the NFL season was Puka Nacua. Okay, that is a slight exaggeration, but the fantasy world was sure set ablaze. Sadly, there is no prop as of press time on receptions. He has 25 already. Then, there are the 266 receiving yards which gives that over of 65.5 yards a nice, long look. It is surprising that the young pass-catcher has no touchdowns yet.

Again, Cincinnati’s defense will give up its yards, but now is the time to see Nacua enter the touchdown sanctuary. Finally, it never hurts to see this kind of plus value in the Monday Night Football props market.

Rams vs Bengals Prop Picks: Puka Nacua anytime touchdown (+190), 1 unit.

Rams vs Bengals Scoring Props

Player Odds to Score First TD Odds to Score Any TD
Joe Mixon (CIN) +550 -105
Ja’Marr Chase (CIN) +650 +110
Kyren Williams (LAR) +650 -105
Tee Higgins (CIN) +900 +160
Puka Nacua (LAR) +1100 +190
Tutu Atwell (LAR) +1200 +230
Tyler Boyd (CIN) +1400 +290
Tyler Higbee (LAR) +1400 +235
Van Jefferson (LAR) +1600 +270
Joe Burrow (CIN) +1900 +450
Drew Sample (CIN) +1900 +400

Rams vs Bengals Prop #3: LA Rams D/ST Anytime Touchdown

Now, will Joe Burrow play? That may not matter, but then again it might help here. Los Angeles figures to have some chances either way for an opportunity to score a defensive touchdown in particular. Either a non-100% Joe Burrow will be playing and this opens up the door for mistakes. Then, if Burrow does not play, Jake Browning or whomever starts will not scare the Rams.

Honestly, this is a tiny wager for your Rams vs Bengals picks. After all, anything can happen on Monday Night Football.

Rams vs Bengals Prop Picks: Los Angeles Rams D/ST Anytime Touchdown (+700), 1 unit. 

Rams vs Bengals Prop #4: Kyren Williams Longest Reception Over 11.5 Yards

This prop is worth a longer look given how many yards Cincinnati gives up on the ground. Now, the Rams’ offensive line has not given much space for running, but the short passing game has been much better. Williams has a few double-digit yard receptions which makes this another tiny-wager possibility.

Rams vs Bengals Prop Picks: Kyren Williams Longest Reception Over 11.5 Yards (-115), 1 unit.
