Justin Hebert and the Chargers up against Carson Wentz and the Vikings on TNF tonight!
Week 8 of the NFL season gets underway tonight with Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime Video, all set to bring us the Chargers vs Vikings matchup from SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California.
The Chargers are entering this game on the back of a big loss to the Indianapolis Colts last week, while the Vikings’ game was closer but still ended in a 22-28 loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Here are a couple of same-game parlays for the TNF game between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Minnesota Vikings as per FanDuel.
Los Angeles Chargers Moneyline (-178) + Jordan Mason Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+120) + Quentin Johnston Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+155)
Total Parlay Odds: +828
Taking the Los Angeles Chargers to win this game comes from the fact that the Vikings have struggled to win against better teams this season. While injuries have stalled the Chargers’ progress after a blistering start, Justin Herbert and the offense still have plenty of firepower, while the defense is also quite respectable.
Vikings’ running back Jordan Mason has already scored 4 touchdowns in the six games he has played in. Additionally, the Chargers’ defense has allowed 10 rushing touchdowns in their 7 games so far, making it a strong possibility that Mason finds the back of the endzone in this game.
Similarly, wide receiver Quentin Johnston is having his best season in year 3. In his 6 games, Johnston has already caught 28 balls for 407 receiving yards and 5 touchdowns. Averaging nearly a touchdown a game, Johnston could snag his 6th touchdown catch tonight.
Justin Herbert 2+ Passing Touchdowns (-178) + Justin Jefferson 90+ Passing Yards (+120) + Kimani Vidal 60+ Rushing Yards (+102)
Total Parlay Odds: +509
Justin Herbert is currently tied for 6th in the league with 13 passing touchdowns. In his last two games, he has thrown 3 and 2 touchdowns, respectively.
Justin Jefferson has crossed 100+ receiving yards in 2 of his last 3 games. Being the WR1 of the Vikings, he is always in the mix on offense, and Wentz will once again look Jefferson’s way more often than not.
The Vikings’ pass defense is much better than their run defense. Although Justin Herbert leads the league in passing yards, this could be a game where he ends up handing off the ball a lot more to Kimani Vidal in the backfield.

Here are some of the best player props for this week’s game between the Chargers and the Vikings, as per FanDuel.
In the 4 games Carson Wentz has played in for the Vikings, he has already been picked off 4 times. Moreover, the Chargers boast a solid secondary that has come away with the ball 6 times in just 7 games.
Justin Herbert has been throwing the ball well this season. He already leads the league in passing yards and has 34 or more pass attempts in 5 of his 7 games so far.
Keenan Allen has been one of Herbert’s most trusted receivers over the years, and after one season with the Bears, Allen hasn’t missed a beat back in L.A. He has 435 receiving yards so far this season and has crossed 50 yards receiving in 5 of his 7 games.
Jordan Addison has played only 3 games this season, as he missed the first three due to a suspension. However, since his return, he has had 2 games over 100 receiving yards. But, the Chargers’ pass defense is likely to hold him to much less in tonight’s game.
