Week 4 was an absolute drag, but the Week 5 odds for Monday Night Football have a spicy storyline as Davante Adams faces off against his old team, the Green Bay Packers. We’ve got the latest MNF odds, MNF schedule, and more.
Week 4 saw us again avoid any star players getting hurt on MNF — apologies to the Jamal Adams supporters out there — but we had an absolute snore fest as the Giants completely imploded against the Seahawks.
We’re eyeing up a juicy storyline on the Week 5 odds board, however, as the Green Bay Packers travel to Las Vegas to face the Raiders in the Davante Adams revenge game… even if Adams’ bff (Derek Carr) and former bff (Aaron Rodgers) will have no involvement whatsoever.
The opening NFL odds saw Adams & Co. as slim home underdogs at most outlets, but with Jimmy Garoppolo back under center for the Raiders QB, the line movement went slightly in favor of the home side.
To get you prepped for the final game of the week, we’ve got the best odds for this upcoming MNF matchup — and every MNF matchup — throughout the season, as well as the full Monday Night Football schedule for 2023 and NFL player props for the key skill positions.

MNF betting tips
From Jason Logan, Covers Senior Industry Analyst
1
Time to heal
The polar opposite of one of my TNF betting tips, Monday games leave players with more time to nurse any wounds. Injured players have an extra day for recovery and often will wait until the 11th hour to make a decision.
2
What happens next?
Monday games present a shorter schedule for the teams involved, falling one day behind the usual cadence in preparing for the upcoming week. While not as drastic as navigating a Thursday game, teams may have to forfeit either an early-week walkthrough or a rest day in order to stay on schedule. Look at the teams’ upcoming schedule and see if this later finish week leads to more problems ahead — especially for the road team, which also needs to factor in travel.
3
Home-field frenzy
The veracity of the home can get ramped up on prime-time games. Instead of the usual tailgating duration for a 1 p.m. or 4 p.m. game, the home crowd instead gets to party all day long. That juiced-up crowd is then released into the stadium — and unleashed onto the visitors — giving the home hospitality a little extra bite.
4
Cold concerns
Monday nighters can also be an advantage for cold weather teams come December and January. Temperatures plummet when the sun goes down and places like Buffalo, Foxborough, and East Rutherford can turn into frozen wastelands. While both sides feel the chill of the low temps, visitors from warmer cities or indoor stadiums may struggle to adapt when the mercury drops.
