Commanders vs. Eagles Best Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks for Thursday Night Football

The top two teams in the NFC East face off in prime time on Thursday night, and there are plenty of ways to get involved by betting on this game.

One of the most exciting ways to bet on a standalone game is to take touchdown scores at any time, and both of these offenses have been very potent this season, led by quarterbacks Jalen Hurts and Jayden Daniels.

However, the Eagles are a solid defensive group, allowing the fifth-fewest points in the NFL this season.

Still, oddsmakers have pegged the total for this game at 49 points, a sign that they expect there to be plenty of offense between these two division rivals. With the Eagles on a five-game winning streak and Jalen Hurts rolling, I don’t mind targeting a few pass catchers in this game to hit the mark.

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook.

AJ Brown anytime TD (+115)

After finding the end zone in his first three games of the 2024 season, Brown has failed to do so in his last three.

However, this is a prime match for the star to get back on track. Washington has allowed the sixth-most passing passes in the NFL this season (17) and allowed three passing touchdowns to Russell Wilson and the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10.

Hurts turned to Brown heavily, targeting him 41 times in six games (nearly seven targets per game), and the star had five catches for 109 yards in a blowout win over Dallas last week.

I’ll happily take him at more money in a favorable matchup.

Terry McLaurin TD Anytime (-110)

In 10 games, Terry McLaurin has 66 targets, 47 receptions and six touchdowns, finding the end zone in four contests.

While it doesn’t justify that price tag at -110, McLaurin is the most reliable player in this Washington offense.

Running back Brian Robinson Jr. missed Week 10 with an injury, and the Commanders have some questions after McLaurin at receiver. Scary Terry had five catches for 113 yards in Week 10, and he’s either scored a touchdown, gone over 100 yards or caught five passes in nine straight games.

This shows how involved he is in this offense. At -110, it’s worth finding the end zone in what could end up as a shootout given that high total.

Jalen hurts at all times TD (+105)

I can’t believe Jalen Hurts is more money away from finding the end zone in Week 11 after scoring two more times on the ground against Dallas.

Over the past four weeks, Hurts has eight rushing touchdowns, scoring twice or more in three of those games.

The Eagles quarterback scores an automatic touchdown from the one-yard line with the “Tush Push,” and he’s also been pushing hard, carrying the ball at least seven times in every game this season.
