We finished Week 2 with a record of 1-2 with Josh Jacobs fumbling at the 1-yard line and Amon-Ra St. Brown getting stopped at the 1-yard line. Onwards we go! Let’s dive into our NFL Week 3 anytime touchdown scorer best bets, while you can also find out our experts’ NFL picks for EVERY game.

Broncos vs Buccaneers anytime touchdown scorer pick: Bucky Irving (+290)

Line available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.

Bucky Irving, the 4th round selection for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in this year’s past draft, has been an integral part of the Buccaneers early success. Starting running back Rachaad White is averaging 1.96 yards per carry and has broken just one tackle in his 26 attempts on the ground to start the year. On the other hand, Bucky Irving has broken the same amount of tackles in nine fewer attempts and is averaging 5.3 yards per carry.

Irving will bring fresh legs into a game in which the Buccaneers are projected to dominate the time-of-possession battle. They’ll face off against the rookie-led 0-2 Denver Broncos, who have a tough time sustaining drives. As a 6-point favorite at home, Irving could see his workload increase.

Lions vs Cardinals anytime touchdown scorer pick: Jahymr Gibbs (-120)

Line available at ESPN Sportsbook at time of publishing.

Naturally, we’re attacking the highest total of the NFL slate. The Arizona Cardinals will play host to the Detroit Lions in Week 3 with a total of 51.5 points. Elusive running back Jahymr Gibbs should take center stage in this loaded offense affair, even in a split backfield with David Montgomery.

Gibbs exploded on the scene last week in the running game, averaging 6.5 yards per carry, but failed to reach the endzone – something he did in Week 1 on Sunday Night Football. As we shop around for the price, sharper books like FanDuel and DraftKings have Gibbs to score a touchdown at -135 and -130. Instead, we’ll back the price ESPNBET is offering at -120.

Bears vs Colts anytime touchdown scorer pick: DJ Moore (+180)

Line available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.

It’s no secret who Caleb Williams’s top target is. DJ Moore has registered eight and 10 targets through his first two games with the #1 overall pick, but zero red zone targets. The Bears failed to score an offensive touchdown in Week 1 and just one in Week 2, with Khalil Herbert rushing one in. Turn to Week 3, where the Bears get to play in a dome against a Colts defense that dropped to 0-2 last week after losing to a Malik Willis-led Packers squad.

Moore has an encouraging 165 air yards through two games – 22nd most amongst wide recievers. If the Bears offensive line can give Williams more time in the pocket to throw, look for him to continue to look Moore’s way.
