The Philadelphia Eagles got the job done against the New England Patriots in Week 1, and now will play in their first prime time game of the year on Thursday night when they face the Minnesota Vikings.

You'll find my best bets for every game this week in the latest edition of the "Road to 272 Bets", which you can read here.

In this article, we're going to focus on my favorite type of prop bet, anytime touchdown scorer. All we need for this wager to hit is for the player we bet on to find the end zone.

If you want to dabble on these with me, I'd recommend doing so at PointsBet Sportsbook because they have a great offer going on for a limited time.

If you click the link below and place a $50 bet on any game, you'll be given $150 toward a jersey on Fanatics! It's really that easy.

Now, let's dive into who I think will find the end zone on Thursday night.

Anytime TD bets for Vikings vs. Eagles

  • D'Andre Swift Anytime TD (+165)
  • Jalen Hurts Anytime TD (-108)
  • Jordan Addison Anytime TD (+225)

D'Andre Swift Anytime TD (+165)

D'Andre Swift had a quiet debut for the Eagles, being on the field for just 29% of their offensive snaps while getting just one carry for three yards. After that performance, you may hesitate to bet on him to find the end zone, but I'm going to have the opposite reaction. I'm going to underreact to that performance and bet on him to find pay-dirt on Thursday night.

Kenneth Gainwell has been ruled out for Thursday night, so it's time for the Eagles to see what Swift can do.

Jalen Hurts Anytime TD (-108)

Jalen Hurts was a touchdown machine in 2022, racking up 13 rushing touchdowns throughout the course of the season. He didn't score in Week 1 against the Patriots, but he carries the ball nine times for 37 carries which proves he's still not afraid to take off with his legs. It's only a matter of time before he returns to the end zone.

Jordan Addison Anytime TD (+225)

If we have to bet on a Viking to score a touchdown, I'd recommend wagering on Jordan Addison. With James Bradberry out on Thursday night, Darius Slay is likely going to shadow Justin Jefferson, which is going to open things up for the Rookie. It also helps that he already scored this season, finding the end zone last week against the Buccaneers.

Odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.
