It’s a divisional battle between the Bills and Dolphins, and whichever team wins will earn the title of AFC East Champions. Obviously, there is a lot on the line. So, let’s get into my favorite touchdown scorer best bets for this crucial Week 18 matchup on NFL Sunday Night Football. And while you’re at it, make sure you read our NFL picks for every game, as we look to add to our +58.7 units of profit this season.
Buffalo Bills touchdown scorer best bet: Josh Allen (-125)
Available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing
Josh Allen is easily my favorite touchdown scorer of the entire game. Yes, Buffalo has a running back, but he barely gets used in the red zone. That’s because Josh Allen is doing the majority of the rushes. Heading into Week 18 Allen has rushed for a touchdown 15 times this season. He’s scored 4 touchdowns in the last 2 weeks and has scored at least once in 5 straight weeks. In a bigger sample size, he’s scored in 13 of the last 15 weeks. Fortunately for Allen, he will be facing a Dolphins defense that was just stripped of their dignity in Week 17. Miami allowed 56 points to the Ravens in a game that Baltimore had nearly 500 total yards in. Oddsmakers are expecting a lot of points in this one, and Allen should be a part of that.

Miami Dolphins touchdown scorer best bet: Tyreek Hill (-120)
Available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing
It’s been 3 straight weeks without a Tyreek Hill touchdown. However, that doesn’t scare me in the slightest. Hill has been nursing an ankle injury for weeks and he also dropped a touchdown pass in the end zone last week, so he’s still getting plenty of scoring opportunities. Also, Hill is matchup-proof. His speed makes him a threat to score on every possession. The speedster will be facing a Buffalo defense that allows over 40 more passing yards per game on the road than at home. Lastly, it feels weird to say this, but Hill has the best value to score. De’Von Achane and Raheem Mostert are heavily favored to find the end zone which gives Hill the best value while still being a favorite.
