🦃 Best Thanksgiving anytime touchdown scorer predictions: Packers vs. Lions

🔥 Christian Watson, WR, Packers (+190) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Watson scored twice two weeks ago - in his fourth game of the season - before being held to 49 yards on five catches (seven receptions) against a much stronger Minnesota Vikings defense. Well, the competition steps down once again against the Detroit Lions and their "break, don't bend secondary".

The Lions have held receivers to a 57.7% catch rate but have allowed 15 touchdowns to the position - more than all but one team. Green Bay's a short underdog in a game with a 48.5-point Over/Under, suggesting a pass-heavier game script than usual for QB Jordan Love in the friendly confines of Ford Field.

Our Gary Pearson likes the Packers (+2.5) and the Over 48.5 in his Packers vs. Lions prediction.

🔥 Ross Dwelley, TE, Lions (+420) ⭐⭐

Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (back) remains out due to injury and is likely to miss the rest of the season. Backup Brock Wright was ruled out later Wednesday afternoon, so in steps veteran Ross Dwelley.

The Packers allow a 76.4% catch rate to tight ends and have given up five touchdowns to the position through 11 games, and the defensive unit is stronger against receivers. I'm turning to my attention to a big body in the red zone for this key NFC North rivalry game, as both teams still vie for the division title alongside the Chicago Bears.

🦃 Best Thanksgiving anytime touchdown scorer predictions: Chiefs vs. Cowboys

🔥 Xavier Worthy, WR, Chiefs (+200) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I contemplated taking six Chiefs players for this article, but ultimately opted to mix up my anytime touchdown scorer predictions.

The Cowboys have allowed a league-high 18 touchdowns, 9.75 yards per target, and a 69.3% catch rate to receivers. They're also in a prime letdown spot at home on Thanksgiving after beating the rival Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.

Worthy's anytime touchdown odds have inflated ever since Rashee Rice returned from suspension. Though he has just one score on the year (prior to Rice's season debut), he remains the team's best big-play threat and averages 11.0 yards per reception. There's the added potential of him scoring on an end-around, as he has 73 rushing yards on just seven attempts this season.

🔥 Jake Ferguson, TE, Cowboys (+220) ⭐⭐⭐

The Chiefs' 82.5% catch rate allowed to tight ends is worse than all but one team. Somehow, they've held the position to three scores through 11 games, but Ferguson has turned six of his 19 red-zone targets into touchdowns.

The fourth-year pro already has a career-high seven touchdowns on the season on an 84.4% catch rate. He scored two weeks ago, and I'm betting on him to get in the end zone again in the game with the highest betting total of the day.

Matt Jacob is riding with Cowboys +3.5 and Under 52 with his Chiefs vs. Cowboys prediction.

🦃 Best Thanksgiving anytime touchdown scorer predictions: Bengals vs. Ravens

🔥 Ja'Marr Chase, WR, Bengals (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Yes, I'm taking the minus-money odds for Chase to score in his return from suspension. How strange it is that his return aligns with QB Joe Burrow's injury recovery, and that both happen on Thanksgiving night? Ratings, schmatings.

The NFL's best bromance reunites not in time to salvage the team's lost 3-8 season, but it could be in time to deal a harmful blow to the rival Baltimore Ravens' playoff hopes. Baltimore enters Thanksgiving at 6-5 and atop the AFC North, but they'll face the best Bengals team that's taken the field yet this season.

Liam Fox also has Chase finding the end zone with his Thanksgiving player props.

🔥 Lamar Jackson, QB, Ravens (+240) ⭐⭐⭐

I was surprised to find out that Jackson has just two rushing touchdowns against the Bengals in his career. But they're yet to meet on Thanksgiving night, with the Ravens having won four straight games.

Jackson hasn't scored a touchdown himself since returning from injury, and has just one on the year (Week 1). While he's far removed from the NFL MVP odds race, he and his teammates will surely take the opportunity to beat a hated division rival handily, and try to keep us from slipping into our tryptophan-induced early bedtimes.

Phil Wood likes Ravens -7 and Over 51.5 with his Bengals vs. Ravens prediction, check hit his best player prop.
