NFL Week 5 Anytime Touchdown Scorer Prop Bets: Sunday Night Football (Bengals vs. Ravens)
Anytime TD Scorer: Tee Higgins (WR – CIN) +155
While Chase is a superstar and deserves all the credit he gets, Higgins is one of the more underrated players in the NFL. The third-year receiver is tied for the team lead with two receiving touchdowns. Furthermore, his targets (28) and receptions (20) are the second-most on the team, only behind Chase, while he leads the team in receiving yards (315). Meanwhile, the Ravens’ secondary has struggled this season, giving up six touchdowns to wide receivers, the second-most in the NFL. More importantly, in the Week 16 matchup last year, the former Clemson star had 12 receptions for nearly 200 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Expect him to find the end zone at least once tonight.
Anytime TD Scorer: Mark Andrews (TE – BAL) +105
Baltimore’s passing attack has been clicking this season as Lamar Jackson leads the NFL in passing touchdowns with 11. His go-to target is Andrews, who leads the team with three receiving touchdowns. Despite the absence of Jackson, Andrews had a touchdown in the Week 16 matchup against the Bengals last year. Furthermore, the veteran tight end had four touchdowns in the past five meetings against Cincinnati. While the Bengals haven’t surrendered a touchdown to the tight end position this year, they haven’t faced a superstar like Andrews. Last season they gave up eight touchdowns to tight ends, the sixth-most in the NFL by comparison. Andrews will have a big performance this week.
