San Francisco is coming off a dramatic 32-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Washington, on the other hand, left Week 5 with a surprising and unusual tie against the New York Giants.
Brock Purdy has been outstanding for the 49ers through the first five weeks, throwing 13 touchdown passes while limiting interceptions to two. Christian McCaffrey leads the team with five rushing touchdowns. These standouts are among the top bets for Monday Night Football.
George Kittle is a standout in prime-time games and has been a key target for Purdy. The tight end has four receiving touchdowns and has topped 70 receiving yards in three of the last four games. Kittle, a veteran of big moments, remains a primary red-zone option and has two career touchdowns in four games against Washington.
Another strong option for San Francisco is Mike Evans, who has emerged as a premier addition in the offseason. Evans leads the team with 324 receiving yards and averages 65.2 yards per game. The 33-year-old has posted at least 70 receiving yards in two consecutive games, including a 113-yard performance on five catches in Week 5 against Seattle.
Christian McCaffrey is also a frequent and reliable scoring threat. He has found the end zone in four straight games and is heavily involved when the 49ers are on the opponent’s side of the field. Against Washington, McCaffrey has produced two touchdowns in five regular-season appearances and consistently logs double-digit rushing attempts this season.
