Bears vs Lions anytime touchdown scorer pick: Jameson Williams (+210)
Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook and available at time of publishing.
There’s not much value to go around on the Detroit Lions side of the football. The trio of David Montgomery, Jahymr Gibbs, and Amon-Ra St. Brown all have odds fewer than -115 to score. As we saw on Monday Night Football with Derrick Henry and J.K. Dobbins, a touchdown is no guarantee. They both failed to score and were at least -150 to score. So we’ll take a stab at Jameson Williams and his blazing speed at +210 on FanDuel Sportsbook. The rest of the market is sitting around +170.
Williams ranks in the top 3 in 50+ yard catches this season and is one back from the lead, with Terry McLaurin leading the way after scoring a miraculous touchdown on Sunday against the Cowboys with less than a minute left. All it takes is for a shot to be called Williams way and for him to cash us out.
Bears vs Lions anytime touchdown scorer pick: DJ Moore (+220)
Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook and available at time of publishing.
DJ Moore isn’t getting much respect from bookmakers in terms of anytime touchdown odds coming into Thursday – Especially after he just recorded his 2nd 100-yard game of the season and reeled in all 7 of his targets. That made it 2 weeks in a row Moore registered at least 7 targets and hauled them all in. Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams has a pass attempt line of 33.5 – I’d suspect much of that action to get Moore’s way in what should be a pass-heavy game script with the Bears being 10-point road underdogs in a dome.
