Things started so well last week. My first two Anytime Touchdown (ATD) and First Touchdown (FTD) picks netted five total touchdowns, including a first touchdown. But things got away from us a bit after that. The total hit was only about 0.7 units. Hopefully, that was just a bump in the road. Below are my picks for all 13 games on the Sunday slate, excluding the showdown on Sunday night between Detroit and Minnesota.
This week is going to be tricky when it comes to anytime touchdown and first touchdown picks. Many players have question marks surrounding their workloads. Because of this, sportsbooks have not listed anytime touchdown and first touchdown pricing for multiple games. With so much up in the air, touchdown prices can move quickly. I am authoring this week’s article as late as possible to mitigate some of the movement. But nothing is set in stone. If I like a player at even money, that does not necessarily mean I will like him at -180. As always, use your discretion and bet responsibly.
As a reminder, I am tracking these using bet sizes of 0.4 units on anytime touchdown bets and 0.1 units on first touchdown bets. Whether you play one or all, use your discretion and adjust as you see fit. We compare anytime touchdown stats to prop bet odds and projections to help identify this week’s best bets.

With so much ambiguity surrounding the Week 18 anytime touchdown and first touchdown landscape, I do not want to get too out-of-pocket chasing longshots. Therefore, Colts running back Jonathan Taylor will be my pick in this game. Taylor has scored five times in the last two weeks and now gets a great matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Jacksonville has given up 19 touchdowns to opposing running backs this year. That is tied for second-most in the NFL. Indianapolis will start Joe Flacco at quarterback this week. That should open up the threat of the pass and allow Taylor to operate. As long as there are no restrictions on his workload, I expect Taylor to score at least one touchdown on Sunday.
