Someone must score the first TD of the game, and this article will help you increase your odds of hitting on that player based on matchups and team strengths. It will feature a selection for each game of the NFL Sunday slate. And below is a closer look at my top touchdown scorer pick for Eagles vs. Patriots.
NFL First Touchdown Scorer Odds & Picks: Eagles vs. Patriots
Philadelphia Eagles @ New England Patriots
Odds: +750 via BetMGM
These teams have two of the better defenses in the league, but one has a much better offense. Jalen Hurts was dominant last season, both on the ground and through the air. The Patriots struggled against mobile quarterbacks in 2022 due to a lack of speed at linebacker. Lamar Jackson ran for 107 yards and a touchdown, and Justin Fields ran for 82 yards and a touchdown against the Patriots last season. Jalen Hurts should have running lanes, and he will likely find them. He is the favorite at most sportsbooks to score first, and for good reason.
