Commanders vs Eagles TNF: 6 Favorite NFL Anytime Touchdown Best Bets

We have what could end up being a high-scoring NFC East battle tonight on Thursday Night Football between the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles, so here are the top touchdown props for you to target.
How to Approach Saquon Barkley (-180)
As electrifying as Saquon Barkley has been for the Eagles this season, I can’t get behind him to score a touchdown at -180. Despite combining for eight touchdowns on the season, he’s only scored in four different games, and now Jalen Hurts is in a groove with his legs where he’s stealing touchdowns from Barkley. I can’t fault anyone for sprinkling Barkley to score into a parlay, given all the points that tonight’s game could have, but there is better value to be had in other spots.
Brian Robinson Jr. (+140)
Brian Robinson Jr. is back from injury tonight, and he’s worth some action in the touchdown market at +140 straight up. He has recorded six touchdowns across seven games, and the Commanders should want to establish the ground game early against this Eagles defense. Your trust in Robinson should be based on your trust in the Commanders as a whole, so if you expect them to keep this one close, bet on him to find the endzone.

Must-Bet: Jalen Hurts (-110)
At -110, how does one not bet Jalen Hurts to rush for a touchdown tonight? He’s combined for eight touchdowns across the last four games and looks comfortable going after the endzone with his legs when in the red zone. Plus, it’s a guarantee that if the Eagles have the ball on the one or two-yard line, it will be a tush-push for Hurts. I suggest betting him to score twice at +550.
Terry McLaurin (+180)
The Eagles’ young secondary has been lock-down recently, especially rookie cornerback Quinyon Mitchell, who will likely be going right after Terry McLaurin. Regardless, if you like the Commanders to score many points tonight, backing McLaurin at +180 is a must. He has six receiving touchdowns on the season, but he has found a ton of success in his career against the Eagles, recording at least five receptions in nine of ten career games. I don’t expect the Commanders to have a ton of success scoring tonight, but if you do, I’d invest a lot of money into parlaying McLaurin and Robinson to score at +560.
AJ Brown (+130)
We can keep our argument as to why AJ Brown is a must-bet to score a touchdown brief because he combined for 17 catches, 305 yards, and four touchdowns in two games last season. He owns the Commanders, and it’s not like their secondary personnel has changed much. At +130, lock it in!
Longshot: Jeremy McNichols (+950)
Outside of Brian Robinson Jr., predicting what the Commanders do at the running back position is a guessing game because they are more than willing to get their entire running back room involved in all situations. All three of Robinson, Austin Ekeler, and Jeremy McNichols are likely to see touches, so I can’t look past getting McNichols at +950 to score. Plus, getting him at this price is excellent value for someone with four touchdowns under his belt.
