7 Anytime Touchdown Bets You Need to Place for Christmas Day

Deebo Samuel (+105)
This can be kept short as Deebo Samuel has been on fire lately, combining for eight touchdowns over the last four weeks. The Niners’ offense has shown that no defense can slow them down when at their best, which they currently are, so at +105, this is a two-unit play.
Rashee Rice (+145)
Rashee Rice has become one of our wagons, so we'll ride with him on Christmas Day. He's found the endzone in three of the last four weeks, and his production is picking up as he's averaged eight receptions per game over this recent stretch. He just had a 100-yard game with a touchdown against the Raiders two weeks ago, so at +145, the value is there for him to do something similar again.
Isiah Pacheco (+105)
Isiah Pacheco returns from injury, and before he went down, he scored three touchdowns over his last two games. Included in that was a two-touchdown outing against the Raiders, so as he meets them again on Christmas Day, I can get behind a touchdown wager with him being priced at +105.
AJ Brown (+105)
We’re all struggling to figure out what’s happening with the Philadelphia Eagles. However, despite their three-game skid, they still sit as -13.5 point favorites over the New York Giants on Christmas Day, telling us the Eagles should pour it on the Giants. I’m looking for a dominant game from the Eagles’ passing game since they need it desperately, led by AJ Brown, who has averaged 12 targets per game over the losing streak. Those targets will turn to touchdowns soon enough, starting on Christmas Day, because that’s the gift the Eagles desperately need.
Giants Team Total Touchdowns UNDER 1.5 (-120)
I know the Eagles' defense has been a train wreck, but like the Eagles' offense, this a game for the Eagles' defense to get everything in order against Tommy DeVito and this well-below-average offense. Last week, despite allowing 20 points and an ugly late-game drive to Drew Lock to seal the game, the defense looked slightly improved, with Matt Patricia calling the plays. I'm hoping for continued improvement leading up to Monday afternoon, so I can't expect his Giants' offense to score more than a touchdown, considering how pitiful they looked last week against a Saints' defense that just gave up 30 points to the Rams.
Boston Scott (+300)
Most of you are probably wondering who in the world Boston Scott is, but he's not Boston Scott on Sunday; he's the Giant Killer. As the Eagles' third-string running back, he only has 16 carries on the season, so in a typical scenario, it would be outrageous to bet on him at +300 to find the endzone. Usually, we'd be getting double the value. However, Scott has scored a touchdown in all eight games he's played against the Giants, so much so that coaches and players openly call Scott "the Giant Killer" in media settings. At +300, everyone in the Philadelphia area will be betting on this, so the love might as well be spread in the name of holiday spirit.
Gus Edwards (+145)
Gus Edwards returns to his feature-back status, and when in that role, we know he produces touchdowns. In the last five games where Edwards saw double-digit carries, he found the endzone in each game for a total of eight touchdowns, and my theory is that this stout San Francisco defense would much rather let Gus Edwards beat them with his legs than allow Lamar Jackson to run wild. At +145, the value is there.
Deebo Samuel (+105)
This can be kept short as Deebo Samuel has been on fire lately, combining for eight touchdowns over the last four weeks. The Niners’ offense has shown that no defense can slow them down when at their best, which they currently are, so at +105, this is a two-unit play.
