Anytime Touchdown Scorer Predictions for Week 6: Top Target for Monday Night Football

Last updated: October 16, 2023 4:11 PM EDT • 8 min read X Social Google News Link

Week 6 has been going well for our anytime touchdown scorer predictions and we're back with one more selection for Monday Night Football that hopes to take us from a minus-2.25 unit deficit back into the black for the season. All of our NFL picks are based on the NFL odds from our top NFL betting sites.
Including the Thursday Night Football opener to the NFL's Week 6, our anytime touchdown scorer predictions are 2-3 on the week but for a gain of 1.65 units. With positive gains for the season within reach, we're targeting one more prediction from Monday Night Football to help bolster your Cowboys vs. Chargers predictions.
Our anytime and first touchdown scorer predictions for Monday Night Football complement our Cowboys vs. Jaguars NFL player props as we look to get the better of our best sports betting apps.
Anytime touchdown scorer predictions: Week 6: MNF
Cowboys vs. Chargers anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Quentin Johnston, Chargers, WR (+350 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐
The Los Angeles Chargers' rookie wide receiver played a season-high 51% of the offensive snaps in Week 4, the team's first game without the services of wide receiver Mike Williams. Now the first-round pick has had a bye week to get accustomed to his larger role within the offense ahead of playing in a Monday Night Football game with a lofty 50.5-point total.
Johnston was targeted thrice in three of his four games this season. In Week 4, against the Las Vegas Raiders, his lone catch on three targets went for 18 yards, a season-high single-game total. The 21st overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft has been underused to this point but that should change coming off a bye week, and with running back Austin Ekeler returning from injury to help take defensive pressure off of the Chargers' passing attack.
We're getting a nice boost with FanDuel's +350 odds for an anytime score on MNF. BetMGM offers the market-low of +230 bettors need to avoid.

Anytime touchdown scorer predictions: Week 6: Sunday
Seahawks vs. Bengals anytime touchdown scorer prediction: DK Metcalf, Seahawks, WR (+175 via BetMGM) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✖️
Everyone flooded back to the Cincinnati Bengals' bandwagon with their 34-20 win over the Arizona Cardinals last week in which the duo of Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase finally rekindled their connection to the tune of three scores for Chase. That performance has the odds suppressed for all key members of the Cincinnati offense heading into the Week 6 meeting with the Seattle Seahawks.
That gives us on opportunity to buy wide receiver DK Metcalf's heightened odds for an anytime touchdown in this matchup. Cincinnati is a 3-point favorite and the 45-point total gives the Seahawks an implied team total of 21 points. Metcalf leads all Seattle pass-catchers with 0.4 projected touchdowns which we can turn into odds of +150.
Most of our NFL prop betting sites, save for BetRivers, are above that number. BetMGM and FanDuel lead the way with odds of +175.

Panthers vs. Dolphins anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Salvon Ahmed, Panthers, RB (+255 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐⭐ ✅
The Miami Dolphins are the second-biggest favorites on the Week 6 Sunday slate while laying 14 points at home to the winless Carolina Panthers.
That game script for the NFL's highest-scoring and yardage-leading team lends itself excellently to running back Salvon Ahmed's return to the lineup, especially with rookie rusher De'Von Achane out. Ahmed recorded three carries while receiving three targets in each of his first two games, but he's been sidelined ever since. Achane's quick emergence helped to keep him on the sideline during Week 5.
But Ahmed returned to a full practice, putting him ahead of Jeff Wilson Jr. in the quest to be Raheem Mostert's backup in one of the most favorable matchups the Dolphins will get during 2023, and they've already scored 70 points in a game.
We're getting juicy odds of +255 from DraftKings for Ahmed to score an anytime touchdown. FanDuel offers the market-low of +155, which bettors should be sure to avoid.

Patriots vs. Raiders anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Ezekiel Elliott, Patriots, RB (+210 via Caesars) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✅
Veteran Ezekiel Elliott has been steadily cutting into Rhamondre Stevenson's snap count in the New England Patriots' backfield. In Week 1, Elliott played just 28 offensive snaps to Stevenson's 58. In Week 5, that split was cut down to 25 and 27, respectively.
Part of the overall problem for New England has been large early deficits forcing the Patriots to abandon the run game. However, they're modest 3-point underdogs on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday and should be able to get back to the stronger facet of their offense in what's projected as one of the lowest-scoring games of the day.
Elliott is projected for 0.2 touchdowns to Stevenson's projection of 0.3 for Sunday evening but we're getting considerably higher odds for the vet. Caesars leads the way with a +210 odds offering.

Anytime touchdown scorer predictions: SNF
Giants vs. Bills anytime touchdown scorer prediction: James Cook, Bills, RB (+110 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✖️
The Buffalo Bills are gargantuan 15-point favorites at home to the injury-depleted New York Giants on Sunday Night Football. Yet, somehow, lead running back James Cook is offered with plus-money odds to score a touchdown via DraftKings. BetRivers has a market-low offering of -121.
Cook is dominating the workload out of the Bills' backfield and played 62% of the offensive snaps in last week's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in London, England, even though he ran just five times for minus-four yards. He's still averaging 4.8 yards per carry on 61 total attempts.
Cook is projected for 0.5 touchdowns on Sunday night between his work as a rusher and a receiver. We can turn that into odds of +100 so DraftKings is providing a nice boost in value.
Anytime touchdown scorer predictions: TNF
Broncos vs. Chiefs anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Noah Gray, Chiefs, TE (+500 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✖️
The Chiefs are heavy 10.5-point favorites at home to their AFC West rivals on Thursday Night Football. The betting total has been trending down through the week from the opening line of 50.5 to as low as 46.5 as of Thursday morning. Part of the reason for that may be the fact the Chiefs and Broncos will meet up again in Denver in Week 8, leading to Chiefs head coach Andy Reid playing a more conservative style on TNF.
The other reason is likely the health of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Kelce temporarily left last Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings due to an ankle injury but managed to return. He returned to practice Tuesday and seems on track to play Thursday. All eyes, including those of Taylor Swift, will be on the star on primetime and that has his anytime touchdown odds as low as -170 via DraftKings.
Our Rodrigo Villagomez looks at his favorite Travis Kelce NFL player props.
Chiefs backup tight end Noah Gray stands to benefit from Kelce being anything less than 100% and from Reid using his secondary play calls. Gray's 65% of the offensive snaps played last week were his highest since the Chiefs' season-opening loss to the Detroit Lions, when Kelce was inactive, and it was his fourth time through five games playing at least 60% of the snaps. He had multiple receptions for the third time this season.
Most importantly, the Broncos are bad. They also rank fourth in average yards (63.2) and third in average touchdowns (0.6) surrendered to opposing tight ends. Gray is projected for 0.2 touchdown on Thursday and we can turn that 20% implied probability into betting odds of +400.
Three of our best NFL prop betting sites are below that number, so rush to this +500 ticket available via FanDuel.
