Buccaneers vs Chiefs MNF: 6 Favorite NFL Anytime Touchdown Best Bets

After a fun weekend of football, Week 9 of the NFL season finishes off tonight on Monday Night Football as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will hit the road to face the Kansas City Chiefs. We’re hoping for a ton of offense, so here are our top touchdown bets for the night ahead.

How to Approach Kareem Hunt (-190)

We need to get some action in on Kareem Hunt to find the endzone, but we don’t want any part of it straight up at -190. He’s combined for four rushing touchdowns across the last three weeks on an average of roughly 23 carries per game. Given the potential blowout, I’d be shocked if he didn’t see 20 carries tonight, so be sure to get him onto your betting card. At +270, he’s live to record two touchdowns, but I rather cook up a small three-leg parlay for him to find the endzone, rush for at least 50 yards, and for the Chiefs to cover an alternate -2.5 point spread for a +125 bet. That’s as good as you’re going to get here!

Rachaad White (+250) or Bucky Irving (+270)?

Backing either of the Buccaneers’ running backs to find the touchdown doesn’t seem ideal in a game where the Bucs are nearly double-digit underdogs, but we’re all over Bucky Irving at a desirable +270 price. To start, he’s found the endzone in three of the last five weeks, and during that stretch, he’s dominated red-zone carries 16-1 over Rachaad White. Plus, as we saw last week, the Bucs want to get Irving involved in the passing attack, as he made seven receptions last week. White also saw five receptions, but when comparing the two backs, Irving’s upside to cross the goal line appears far higher.

Travis Kelce (+120)

Travis Kelce looks back to being Travis Kelce as he finally recorded his first touchdown of the season last week. At +120, we’re all over him to find the endzone tonight and start a streak, as we just saw the the Bucs’ defense allow two touchdowns to Kyle Pitts last week. Plus, coming off a ten-reception game last week, we know Mahomes will be peppering him tonight.

Cade Otton (+240)

Cade Otton will be the top receiving threat for the Bucs tonight by far, and that was evident the past two weeks as he has combined for 17 receptions and 181 yards across the past two weeks. He’s coming off a two-touchdown game last week, so at +240, we must be all over Baker Mayfield’s No. 1 option through the air at a sweet price. Even amid injuries, these Buccaneers have been able to move the ball down the field regardless of their personnel. I won’t expect that to change tonight.

Value in DeAndre Hopkins (+185) or Xavier Worthy (+220)?

With another week under his belt with the Chiefs, I expect more involvement from DeAndre Hopkins, but I’m not ready to declare him as a more significant threat to find the endzone than Xavier Worthy, as the odds reflect. At +220, Worthy has found the endzone in three of the last four weeks, has seen eight targets in back-to-back weeks, and is the ultimate red-zone weapon, given his speed and ability to get the ball out of the backfield. Betting on Hopkins at +185 doesn’t make much sense when I can get Worthy at a better price.

Buccaneers Wide Receiver Carosuel: Best Bet?

Cade Otton will likely see double-digit targets tonight, but behind him, the Bucs wide receiver room is entirely up in the air. Last week, Jalen McMillan led all wide receivers with seven targets and also led the room in snaps. Behind him, Trey Palmer and Sterling Shepard were on the field plenty, but both combined for just five catches. We saw Rakim Jarrett shine down the depth chart despite just seeing 27% of the snaps as he led all wide receivers with 58 yards. Picking one of these guys to find the endzone is like throwing darts blind, but the wisest bet would have to be McMillan at +300 compared to Palmer or Shepard at +360. Still, for added excitement, I expect Jarrett to see more of a workload tonight, so getting him at +550 would have to be my best bet among these wide receivers for the value. We also need to acknowledge Ryan Miller at +750 as the WR5 since he saw five targets last week, but he’s not a real threat to find the endzone, given that he was primarily used as a short-yardage receiver.
