Last week I kicked off the 2024 NFL season by going 5-7 with my Anytime Touchdown (ATD) bets. That included a pair of First Touchdown (FTD) hits. I can say with relative certainty that in years past, that would have netted a small profit. The result this time around, however, was -0.16 units.
Most of the sportsbooks have adjusted the pricing of the ATD market compared to years past. This is why I prefer to keep my exposure to ATD and FTD bets relatively low. The FTD bets in particular are fun to use in conjunction with profit boosts and risk-free bets. But for this column, I am tracking these using bet sizes of 0.4 units on ATD and 0.1 units on FTD.

I am not opposed to getting a bit cute at times with my ATD and FTD bets, but you do not always have to swing for the fences. Sometimes you just need a base hit. Derrick Henry has scored 94 touchdowns in 120 NFL games in his illustrious career. I expect him to add to that total in Week 2. The Ravens host the Las Vegas Raiders, who have a bottom-10 run defense last season and did little to change that reputation last week. The Raiders allowed Chargers backs to amass 161 yards on 21 carries. Baltimore running backs enjoyed 1.66 yards per rush before contact last week. This is a matchup the Ravens should win in the trenches, with King Henry reaping the rewards.
