Week 10 of the 2022 NFL season will wrap up with Monday Night Football between the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia is trying to maintain its status as the only remaining undefeated team in the league. At 4-5, Washington may be in last place in the NFC East but it is still very much in wild-card contention. Needless to say, this is a crucial contest between division rivals.
With kickoff set for 8:15 pm ET on ESPN, it’s time to take a look at the best touchdown scorer bets to be made.

The Commanders and Eagles have already faced each other once this season, with Philadelphia cruising to a 24-8 road win in Week 3. Jalen Hurts threw for 340 yards and 3 touchdowns in that contest, connecting with Brown, DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert. I expect Philly to have another big day through the air. Washington has allowed only 4 rushing touchdowns all year long, but it is in the middle of the pack in passing defense and has surrendered 16 touchdowns through the air. Brown has scored in 3 consecutive outings (5 in total during this stretch), so it’s pretty obvious that getting him at plus money is a steal.

The Commanders have given up the 3rd-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2022 and the 2nd-fewest fantasy points to tight ends. That’s part of the reason why I like Brown and Smith – as opposed to Goedert – to find the endzone yet again at Washington’s expense. Smith had 8 catches for 169 yards to go along with his TD in the first meeting between the 2 teams, so he should be extremely confident heading into this matchup.

Anytime touchdown scorer is a popular player prop bet that NFL bettors can wager on throughout the season. But what is it, and how do you win?
As the name suggests, placing a wager on the anytime touchdown scorer market is when you tip a particular player to score a touchdown during a game. This can be a rushing or receiving touchdown for an offensive player, or you can wager on a team’s defense/special teams to score a touchdown by interception return and fumble return or kickoff and punt returns.
If your player or defense scores a touchdown, you win! The odds will differ from player-to-player depending on the sportsbooks’ calculated probability of that player scoring.
Not for a quarterback, no. A player must get into the endzone, himself, in order to qualify as an anytime touchdown scorer. If a quarterback throws a touchdown pass, only the player who caught it counts as the scorer. If Joe Burrow throws a touchdown pass to Ja’Marr Chase, wagers placed on Evans as an anytime touchdown scorer will cash. However, those placed on Rodgers as an anytime touchdown scorer will not (unless he also runs for a TD). See below for more on what the anytime touchdown scorer market means for quarterbacks.
For a wager on a QB to be an anytime touchdown scorer to cash, he must follow the same rules as a running back, tight end, or receiver. He must get into the endzone himself, either as a runner or a pass-catcher.
In the age of the mobile quarterback, QBs such as Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen and Kyler Murray are often seen rushing in for a touchdown on any given Sunday. And don’t forget the occasional Philly Special, either. QBs can sometimes catch passes for TDs, too.
