Two of the most popular NFL bets this season are First Touchdown Scorer and Anytime Touchdown Scorer.
Every week during the NFL season, our experts will give you their prediction on which player they think will score the first TD in every game.
These prop bets can be difficult to predict, but they are a fan favorite among many NFL bettors.
What is a first touchdown scorer bet?
To win this bet, you must correctly pick the player to score the first touchdown in the game — the first player who receives a touchdown pass or crosses the goal line with the ball.
A touchdown scorer is defined as the player in possession of the ball in the end zone and not the player who throws the TD.
What is an anytime touchdown scorer bet?
To win this NFL bet, you must correctly pick a player who will score a touchdown. Similar to first touchdown bets, the player is the one who crosses the end zone himself, not the QB who throws to that player.

Seahawks vs. Patriots 1st TD Scorer Bet Prediction:
A.J. Brown (WR, Patriots) is our pick for the first TD scorer bet (+950)
Seattle is favored at home in this game, and we know they shut down the New England offense the last time we saw real NFL football. Perhaps, then, taking a Patriot as the first scorer is not the best play. That offense we saw in February needed a difference maker like Brown, however, and the Seahawks defense suffered some key losses in the secondary this offseason.
Seahawks vs. Patriots Anytime TD Scorer Bet Prediction:
Rashid Shaheed (WR, Seahawks) is our pick for the anytime TD scorer bet (+295)
Shaheed was not a major part of Seattle's passing game after joining the team last season, averaging just under 3 targets per game, but training camp reports suggest he will be more involved moving forward. With Shaheed, you get the added chance of a return touchdown. He had two of those in nine games with the Seahawks last season.
Rams vs. 49ers 1st TD Scorer Bet Prediction:
Davante Adams (WR, Rams) is our pick for the first TD scorer bet (+850)
Despite missing three games, Adams was easily the most targeted player in the end zone last season. His 27 end-zone targets were 8 more than Trey McBride in second place. Puka Nacua is the No. 1 receiver, but Adams is the No. 1 option near the end zone.
Rams vs. 49ers Anytime TD Scorer Bet Prediction:
Mike Evans (WR, 49ers) is our pick for the anytime TD scorer bet (+180)
This is obviously subject to health, but we are getting something of a discount on one of the most prolific touchdown scorers at the wide receiver position. Evans has averaged over 1 end-zone target per game throughout his entire career, and he will be looking to get off to a quick start with his new team.
