Our NFL Week 7 TD scorer picks spotlight Sunday’s best bets, featuring expert analysis, key trends and top TD picks across the slate
Hard to believe, but with Thanksgiving in the books, we’re heading into Week 7 of the NFL, with 12 games on the docket tomorrow, starting with the Paris game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New Orleans Saints.
According to Associated Press reporting this morning, the NFL has closed its “NFL House” in Paris today as the city braced for more protests, citing “potential accessibility issues.”
The teams are scheduled to play tomorrow at Stade de France, but security concerns have overshadowed the event all week. No word yet on whether the game will be cancelled, however.
Game time tomorrow is 9:30 a.m. EST.
When you scan touchdown prop betting odds on Betway, check the major injuries for tomorrow’s slate of games, including Monday night’s Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles.
Start with the Paris game. ESPN reports Saints RB Alvin Kamara (back) will be active, but Steelers RB Rico Dowdle (knee) is questionable.
The biggest injury question mark affecting TD betting is Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle), a game-time decision for the Ravens game against the Bengals (1 p.m. EST). Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (shoulder) will play.
The Browns, playing the Titans, look to have RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle), WR Denzel Boston (foot), and WR KC Concepion (calf) all back tomorrow (1 p.m. EST).
QB Baker Mayfield (Bucs) is set to play tomorrow against the Panthers (1 p.m. EST), returning from a thumb injury. Bucs RB Bucky Irving (illness) will play.
Texans TE Dalton Schultz (quad) will play against the Giants (1 p.m. EST); Jets RB Breece Hall (ankle) is questionable, while WR Adonai Mitchell (finger) is expected to play against the Dolphins (1 p.m. EST).
Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) and RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) are expected to play against the Cardinals (4 p.m. EST). Packers RB Josh Jacobs is expected to play against the Lions, according to ESPN, while Rams WR Puka Nacua’s (calf) situation is up in the air for tomorrow’s game against the Raiders (4:25 p.m. EST). The Rams are already without Davante Adams.
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce (ankle) was limited in practice this week but is expected to play against the Seahawks (8:20 p.m. EST).
The big news for Monday night’s game is that Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is expected to play, while WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) is questionable. Cowboys WR George Pickens (shoulder) said he will play.
Adams, Colts TE Tyler Warren, Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet, 49ers WR Mike Evans and WR Emeka Egbuka are all ruled out for this weekend.
Here are my NFL Week 7 TD scorer picks.
Best NFL Week 7 Running Back TD Props
Kyren Williams, Los Angeles Rams, anytime touchdown (-145)
Williams will get a lot of work, as the focal point of the Rams’ offence in a game they absolutely must win, with Adams out and Nacua dealing with a calf injury. The Raiders defence has surrendered seven rushing touchdowns in six games.
Kenneth Walker III, Kansas City Chiefs, anytime touchdown (-120)
The No. 1 back in the NFL (665 yards and six TDs) returns to Seattle, having left during the offseason as a free agent. Walker’s explosive running will go up against Seattle’s excellent rushing defence, but I’m betting Walker is extra motivated.
Best NFL Week 7 Receiver TD Props
Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions, anytime touchdown (-125)
That Packers-Lions NFC showdown is going to be a barnburner. In NFL betting at Betway, the total is high (53.5). St. Brown has a prominent role in Detroit’s passing attack with Jared Goff. That makes him an attractive touchdown target.
Ja’Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals, anytime touchdown (+115)
Another massive game, this one an AFC showdown with the Ravens, with Chase offering appealing value at +115. A big-play receiver, regularly involved in the red zone.
Best NFL Week 7 Quarterbacks TD Props
Bo Nix, Denver Broncos, anytime TD (+350)
Many eyes are on Nix, who has been a disappointment this season. Nix offers attractive value, factoring in his history of scoring on designed runs and scrambles near the goal line. He had five rushing TDs for the Broncos last season.
Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs, anytime TD (+500)
This is higher risk given Seattle’s strong defence, but Mahomes is intriguing for a little bit of money because of his mobility and ability to extend plays. In NFL betting picks, that should present opportunities near the goal line.
