Best Odds: 1.67 with Sky Bet
Next Best: 1.66 with Betfair
Lowest Acceptable Odds: 1.50
Comments: “If the bookies are going to keep offering these odds on Zeke, I am going to keep taking them. With 35 touchdowns in 41 games, he should find paydirt against a less than stellar Redskins run defence.”
Game: Minnesota Vikings @ Green Bay Packers
Kick-Off: 18:00 GMT
Market: Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Selection: Davante Adams
Best Odds: 2.20 with SpreadEx
Next Best: 2.15 with Unibet
Lowest Acceptable Odds: 1.87
Comments: “Adams is head and shoulders above any other Packers receiver, and has a great record of scoring against the Vikings. Having scored 35 touchdowns in the past 3 seasons I was surprised to odds over evens.”
Game: New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
Kick-Off: 18:00 GMT
Market: Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Selection: Antonio Brown
Best Odds: 2.20 with Sport Nation
Next Best: 2.10 with Several
Lowest Acceptable Odds: 1.83
Comments: “It’s hard to tell just how much Brown will play as he is unfamiliar with the Patriots offence, although living with Tom Brady has probably helped. Given his career scoring record, and just how much of a mess the Dolphins are right now, the odds make it worth the risk.”
Game: San Francisco 49ers @ Cincinnati Bengals
Kick-Off: 18:00 GMT
Market: Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Selection: John Ross
Best Odds: 3.25 with Bet365
Next Best: 3.10 with Betfair
Lowest Acceptable Odds: 2.87
Comments: “A guy that I backed a couple of times last season, who seems to have a knack of finding the end-zone when healthy. The Bengals like to take some deep shots, especially at home, and with Ross’ 4.2 speed he should be able to get behind an average 49ers secondary.”
Game: New Orleans Saints @ Los Angeles Rams
Kick-Off: 21:25 GMT
Market: Anytime Touchdown Scorer
Selection: Todd Gurley
Best Odds: 1.90 with Sport Nation
Next Best: 1.83 with Several
Lowest Acceptable Odds: 1.70
Comments: “Malcolm Brown assumed a lot of the goal-line work last weekend, but Gurley was still on the field for 70% of the Rams snaps, and I fully expect him to be on the field in red-zone this week, in what could a game that decides home-field advantage when the playoffs roll around.”
