You have to go back to 2023 for the last time the Broncos’ starting QB Jarrett Stidham threw a pass in a regular-season game. Starting Stidham on 1 week of prep in the AFC Championship is not ideal, but you can find worse options to start at quarterback. Let’s dive into our Patriots vs Broncos anytime TD scorer best bets with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.

Patriots vs Broncos anytime touchdown scorer best bet: Courtland Sutton (+300)
Odds available at bet365 at time of publishing.
Targeting any Broncos skill players may be dicey, but Sean Payton has complete trust in Jarrett Stidham, so much so that he signed 2 contracts with the Broncos. He’s had brief success in the preseason while being one of the highest-paid QBs in the league. With Payton calling the plays, don’t expect much of the offense to change. They threw the ball 46 times last week, with Bo Nix also being the leading rusher. Even with J.K. Dobbins potentially returning on Sunday, I expect Stidham to air the ball out, while looking for Courtland Sutton on the outside, who will have his hands full with Christian Gonzalez. Sutton proved last week that he can be a gamechanger at any time, and I expect Stidham to target Sutton his #1 receiver often.

Patriots vs Broncos TD scorer pick: Rhamondre Stevenson (+125)
Odds available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing
The Patriots have leaned on veteran running back Rhamondre Stevenson to start games throughout the postseason. He took the first 2 series of the game last week, leading to a Patriots 6-play TD drive. The 5-year pro has spent his whole career in New England and is getting his first real taste of postseason football. He was part of the Patriots squad that got smacked by 30 points against the Bills in the 2021 season, but now he is the workhorse back heading into Denver as road favorites and with a rushing attempt prop line of 12.5. That is an indication that he’ll be a focal point of the Patriots’ offense in a likely positive game script.
