The NFL regular season is less than a month from finishing up, but several playoff spots are still to be determined. In the AFC, the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills have locked up their divisions while the NFC features the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles as locks for this year’s postseason.
With all 32 teams in action this week, who can bettors expect to have a strong performance on Sunday when their teams may need it the most? We’ll cover that in our top four anytime touchdown scoring prop bets for Week 15’s contests.
After starting the season in a running back committee, Dallas player Rico Dowdle separated himself from the back. Currently, he’s achieved 731 rushing yards on 152 carries, and he’s scored just one touchdown this season.
Expect him to double that stat by the end of his outing against the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers are yielding more than one touchdown per game to running backs, leading the NFL with 1.15 touchdowns scored per game by player at this position.
The Miami Dolphins have one of the game’s fastest players in wide receiver Tyreek Hill. The 30-year-old athlete has picked up his production with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa back in the starting lineup, and Hill has 198 receiving yards on 16 receptions over his past two outings.
Hill has also scored once in each contest in the past two games, and this week’s opponent – the Houston Texans – is allowing the second-most receiving touchdowns in 2024. That’s a recipe for Hill to increase his touchdown total to six this weekend against the AFC South competition.
Bettors are looking for strong underdogs to score when looking at anytime touchdown prop wagers. Not only do we have one this week, but we’ll have a second for your betting pleasure to choose from.
The New York Jets have had a miserable season thus far as quarterback Aaron Rodgers has failed to live up to his billing. Still, he has a connection with Tyler Conklin as the tight end has caught 36 receptions for 317 yards and two touchdowns thus far.
Conklin has an excellent chance to increase his touchdown total against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The AFC South team has yielded seven touchdowns to tight ends through 13 games, including two of their previous three outings. Expect Conklin to score Sunday and cover this player prop bet.
After sitting several games, Carolina returned to starting former No. 1 overall draft pick Bryce Young against Denver. Since then, the quarterback has been much stronger, throwing for more than 200 yards in three of his six outings.
Against the Cowboys, however, bettors should expect him to score with his legs. The quarterback has rushed in two touchdowns this season, and Dallas is leading the league in touchdowns surrendered to opponent quarterbacks on the ground with seven scores. Expect Young to make it eight this weekend and cover this deep anytime touchdown prop bet.
