🚀 Best Eagles vs. Giants anytime touchdown scorer bets: Thursday Night Football

Here are my favorite Eagles vs. Giants touchdown scorer predictions are based on the best NFL odds for Thursday Night Football:

Cam Skattebo, RB, Giants (+160) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rookie running back Cam Skattebo had his first NFL fumble last week in the Giants' loss to the New Orleans Saints. With fellow running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. injured, Skattebo still played 68% of the offensive snaps and turned 21 touches (15 rushes, six receptions) into 104 yards from scrimmage.

Though the game script is far from ideal with the Giants as a 7-point underdog, the low Over/Under suggest a ground-heavy game plan for both teams. Skattebo should also be used to help take the pressure off rookie QB Jaxson Dart in his first prime-time start in the NFL.

For all their strengths, the Eagles allow running backs to average 4.36 yards per carry and 7.59 yards per target, with five total touchdowns allowed to the position.

DeVonta Smith, WR, Eagles (+260) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I don't understand these odds at all for DeVonta Smith to score tonight.

Though he has only one touchdown this season, he caught eight of 10 targets for 114 yards a week ago in a much tougher matchup against the Broncos. He's played at least 91% of the offensive snaps in three straight weeks, and the Giants allow wide receivers to catch 65.5% of their targets for an 8.18-yard average with five touchdowns allowed to the position.

Additionally, Smith leads Eagles receivers with four red-zone targets. He's caught three and scored his one touchdown inside the opponents' 20-yard line.

A.J. Dillon, RB, Eagles (+1000) ⭐⭐⭐

We're taking a long shot with this final anytime touchdown scorer prediction for Thursday Night Football.

Dillon played 14% and 15% of the offensive snaps the last two weeks, respectively. Though he totaled five carries for 29 yards, the Eagles are likely to deploy a run-heavy attack on a cold night in New Jersey, and starter Saquon Barkley - whom Gary Pearson expects to have a big game with his Eagles vs. Giants prediction - could see some rest in the second half given the 7-point spread.

New York has allowed running backs to average 5.61 yards per carry and 5.34 yards per target on an 82.8% catch rate.
