Thursday Night Football features a thrilling NFC North showdown as the Green Bay Packers face the Detroit Lions in one of the season’s most anticipated matchups. High stakes and a tall total promise excitement for fans and bettors alike, especially those eyeing “anytime touchdown” props.
Here’s a closer look at key players poised to shine:
Jayden Reed (Packers):
With WR Romeo Doubs in concussion protocol, Reed could see expanded opportunities. Last week, Reed capitalized on his increased role with two touchdown catches on six targets in the Thanksgiving win over Miami. A proven red-zone weapon, Reed has converted seven of nine red-zone targets into catches, with five touchdowns inside the 20-yard line this season. Additionally, he’s a versatile threat, contributing 128 rushing yards and a Week 1 rushing touchdown. FanDuel lists him at +150 for an anytime touchdown, offering solid value.
Sam LaPorta (Lions):
LaPorta, fresh off a Thanksgiving performance with two touchdowns against Chicago, continues to impress as a reliable red-zone target for Jared Goff. Despite early-season injuries, he ranks second on the team with 12 red-zone targets, converting eight catches into four touchdowns. Facing a Packers defense vulnerable against tight ends, LaPorta is poised for another strong outing. FanDuel offers a favorable +240 for an anytime touchdown, making him an attractive pick.
Key Prediction:
Reed’s versatility and LaPorta’s red-zone dominance highlight their potential to score in this pivotal game. Both players offer value in “anytime touchdown” bets, setting the stage for an electrifying Thursday night clash.
