Sunday Night Football Touchdown Scorer Prop Bets
Anytime TD Scorer: Rashee Rice (WR - KC) +370
Patrick Mahomes can make anyone outside of Kadarius Toney look good on offense. While Travis Kelce and Jerick McKinnon lead the team with two receiving touchdowns apiece, Rice has quietly been the best Kansas City wide receiver this season. He is second on the team in receptions (10) and targets (14), leading all wide receivers in both categories. More importantly, the rookie caught the first touchdown of the year in Week 1 with Kelce out of the lineup.
Meanwhile, the Jets have played excellent defense, giving up only four touchdowns this season. However, all four have been passing touchdowns. New York has struggled against the tight end position, giving up three touchdowns to them this year. The fourth came in Week 1 to Stefon Diggs. While Diggs is a superstar and Rice is a rookie, bettors should like his touchdown odds at +375. The rookie receiver nearly found the end zone last week, falling short of the goal line twice.
Anytime TD Scorer: New York Jets Defense/Special Teams +800
Frankly, I don't see how the Jets score two touchdowns in this game. They are averaging 14 points per game, scoring under 23 in every contest, including only 10 points in back-to-back weeks. More importantly, New York only has three offensive touchdowns for the year, scoring once every game. Therefore, the only way the Jets find the end zone twice in this game is with a big play from their defense or special teams.
New York has won one game this season, coming in Week 1 over the Buffalo Bills. Rookie wide receiver Xavier Gipson had a 65-yard punt return in overtime for the win. Meanwhile, defenses rarely make game-changing plays when facing the Chiefs offense. However, Brian Branch did have a 50-yard pick-six on Patrick Mahomes in Week 1. If the Jets are going to win this game, they need their defense to make a momentum-changing play.
