NFL Week 8 Anytime Touchdown Bets: Picks for Vikings-Packers, & More
Falcons-Titans Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Expert: Isaiah Sirois
Watch: CBS
When: Sunday, Oct. 29 at 1 p.m. ET
Where: Nissan Stadium, Nashville, Tenn.
Who: Falcons Defense at FanDuel
The Tennessee Titans will start rookie quarterback Will Levis on Sunday, but it’s expected that they’ll rotate second-year quarterback Malik Willis in for a few snaps. We know from last year that Willis is, well, bad — he has completed 53% of his career attempts for 350 yards, zero touchdowns and three interceptions. Although he adds some kick with his legs, his 30 career rushing attempts for 140 yards, one score and three fumbles aren’t impressive. Rumor has it that Levis struggled to separate himself from Willis in camp, so this game could get ugly.
We’re backing Atlanta’s defense to turn one of these quarterbacks’ blunders into a score. The Falcons have some talented players in the secondary, namely cornerback A.J. Terrell and safety Jessie Bates III, who are more than capable of returning a pick. Bates scored a touchdown in his rookie season off an errant throw by Jameis Winston. We could also get lucky with a scoop-and-score. The Atlanta defense recorded two defensive touchdowns both last year and the year before, but they have yet to find paydirt this year. Expect that to change on Sunday. Buy this wager at FanDuel for 10-1 odds.

Who: Breece Hall at DraftKings
Breece Hall has finally been unleashed. And now he’s fresh off a bye week? Say no more. We’re backing the two-year pro to find the endzone on Sunday against the New York Giants. Hall went nuclear in Week 5. He rushed for 177 yards and scored a 72-yard touchdown against a woeful Denver Broncos squad. The following week, Hall scored a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles may have let Hall score to get another offensive possession at the end of the game, but all that matters is he scored.
A positive game script is just what the Jets need for quarterback Zach Wilson. They come in as three-point favorites against the Giants, who will be without Daniel Jones. That may be a good thing for the Giants, who have played well with Tyrod Taylor leading the helm the last two weeks. The run game has killed the Giants due to the offense not being competitive. That has led to Hall’s rushing line being posted at 15.5 on multiple books. They expect Hall to get the ball early and control the game. Give me Hall to score one of the few touchdowns in Jets-Giants with the lowest total of the Sunday slate.
Week 8 Jets-Giants Anytime Touchdown Bet: Breece Hall +120 at DraftKings
Vikings-Packers Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Expert: Justin Martin
Watch: FOX
When: Sunday, Oct. 29 at 1 p.m. ET
Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay
Who: Jordan Addison at DraftKings
Jordan Addison had some type of game on Monday Night Football last week. The rookie scored two touchdowns and racked up 123 yards through the air. Without Justin Jefferson, it’s Addison’s offense. The running game for the Vikings is almost nonexistent, while tight end T.J. Hockenson is dealing with a foot injury. As of publication, Hockenson was removed from the injury report on Friday, so he’ll be full go for Sunday at Lambeau Field. Honestly, Hockenson clogging up the middle of the field will benefit Addison, who has 11 20+ yard catches this season.
Addison will have his toughest come Sunday against All-Pro cornerback Jaire Alexander. Without Jefferson, this is the territory it brings. But, at +170 across multiple books and scoring in the last three games, I’ll take my chances with Addison finding the endzone via a deep ball or in the redzone where the Vikings run game has been abysmal as Alexander Mattison has 12 rushes for 10 yards inside the 20.
Week 8 Vikings-Packers Anytime Touchdown Bet: Jordan Addison +170 at DraftKings
