Week 16 NFL Monday Football Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Las Vegas Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs
Rashee Rice (+130)
The Chiefs receiver problems have been well documented, but there has been one bright side. Rice has become a dependable and Mahomes' favorite option and has 32 catches on 38 targets for 334 yards and three touchdowns in the last four games. One of those games where he found the end zone was against the Raiders.
Jakobi Meyers (+330)
Do you know who leads the Raiders in total touchdowns? It's Meyers. He's into this game with seven receiving touchdowns but also has a passing touchdown. He's coming in finding pay dirt in two of his last three games, one of which was against the Chiefs.
New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles
Jalen Hurts (+330) (First Touchdown Scorer)
The Giantsâ defense has not been the best this season, especially against the run. They're coming allowing 19 rushing touchdowns, the fourth most. Jalen Hurts is now tied with Cam Newton for the most rushing touchdowns in a season by a quarterback (14) and should easily break that with three games left. Hurts only has one first-game touchdown this year, but he's coming in with the team's first touchdowns in three of four.
Isiah Hodgins (+1200)
Isiah Hodgins has benefited from Tommy DeVito being the quarterback, as he's coming into this game with a touchdown in two of the last three. The Eagles have been horrendous against perimeter receivers, allowing the most touchdowns to the position. They're also missing Darius Slay, leaving the cornerback depth thin, and Hodgins' size is great for DeVito to just toss it in his direction.
Baltimore Ravens at San Fransisco 49ers
Gus Edwards (+130)
The injury bug has unfortunately riddled the Ravens' backfield, and Keaton Mitchell was the latest victim. The Gus Bus has been a dependable ride all season and comes into this game fifth with 11 rushing touchdowns. All those are from the red zone, as he leads the team in carries inside the 20.
Deebo Samuel (+105)
Deebo had a down 2022 that was riddled with injuries. Especially recently, he looks healthy and has been scorching hot; he's scored in three straight, accumulating seven touchdowns in that time. The speed is there again with 16.1 yards per catch, and he can certainly break one off.
