Super Bowl LX is set! The Patriots and the Seahawks will face off to see who will be the Super Bowl LX winner. After a long, grueling season, 32 teams have been whittled down to just two. Unfortunately, that means our time to bet on the NFL is about to slow down a lot. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t get down on all the action the big game has to offer! After hitting three of my four anytime touchdown bets in Championship weekend, I’m looking forward to February 8th. Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl LX anytime touchdown bets that I’m placing my hard-earned cash on!
Super Bowl LX Anytime Touchdown Bets
Kenneth Walker (-185)
Kenneth Walker is the most-juiced odds for my Super Bowl anytime touchdown bets. However, there’s a good reason for that. With Zach Charbonnet out for the playoffs, Walker already has four touchdowns in two playoff games. He’ll look to continue his streak into the Super Bowl.
Walker may have only finished with five regular-season touchdowns. However, much of that was due to the fact that Charbonnet handled a lot of the red-zone work. Without Charbonnet healthy, Walker has been able to reclaim a stranglehold on the backfield and become the number one guy.
So far, through two playoff games, he’s had 38 carries for 178 yards and four rushing touchdowns. He’s also caught seven passes on seven targets for 78 yards. Walker has a big part in this offense, and they’ll rely on the run game in Super Bowl LX in order to help open up the play-action pass game. Look for Walker to score a touchdown in the first half of this game and cash our -185 anytime touchdown bet.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba (-105)
The next player on our Super Bowl LX anytime touchdown bets is also slightly juiced. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is -105 to score a touchdown in the Super Bowl. For a guy that gets the type of target share he does, only juiced to -105 seems like a bargain.
JSN was targeted 163 times during the regular season. He brought in 119 of those for 1,793 yards and ten touchdowns. He’s scored a touchdown in each of the playoff games as well. The Patriots do have a very solid defense, and they’ll work to cover him up with both a corner and a safety. However, JSN has proven he’s fairly match-up proof. He’s been able to beat most defenses.
In fact, JSN only had one game under 70 yards during the regular season. Coming off a 153-yard performance against the Rams, JSN will be set to make a big impact and try to help his team win Super Bowl LX.
Stefon Diggs (+240)
Now that we’ve gotten the Seahawks players out of the way, let’s turn our attention to the Patriots. Their offensive weapons may not seem as obvious as the Seahawks’ weapons. That’s due to the fact that Drake Maye does a good job spreading the ball around. The Patriots run a balanced offense.
However, for the Super Bowl LX anytime touchdown bets, I have to turn my attention towards the veteran. I realize he’s going to draw the top coverage. I also realize he isn’t the same player he once was. However, he’s still a reliable veteran who knows how to perform during the biggest of games.
Sure, he only has 11 catches, 73 yards, and one touchdown throughout the three games in the playoffs. He also only scored four receiving touchdowns during the regular season. However, I think Diggs makes a big play for the Patriots and for Maye in Super Bowl LX and cashes his +240 anytime touchdown ticket for us.
Drake Maye (+360)
Speaking of Drake Maye, he’s next on my list of Super Bowl LX anytime touchdown bets at +360. I took Maye to score a touchdown last week against the Broncos. He was the only touchdown scorer for the Patriots. Now, I’ll look for him to put the team on his back again.
Maye only had four rushing touchdowns during the regular season. However, things tend to elevate and playout differently in the big games. It’s the exact reason I thought he’d score last week as well. During the Super Bowl, I look for them to be near the endzone and the coverage to break down. That’s when Maye can get dangerous and take off. He doesn’t get enough credit for his athleticism.
Can Maye quiet the noise and bring the Super Bowl trophy back to the New England Patriots after their seven-year drought? Is there a quarterback who can start to carve out some of the legacy left by Tom Brady? Drake Maye just might do that. However, it’ll go a long way to start it by winning the Super Bowl here, especially if he can throw for a couple of touchdowns and run for another.
Austin Hooper (+850)
For my last Super Bowl LX anytime touchdown bet, I wanted something that was juicy. I kept thinking of selecting Hunter Henry at +220. However, something just kept bringing me to the backup tight end, Austin Hooper, at +850. Call it a gut feeling. The same gut feeling that led me to hit three of four anytime touchdowns last week.
Hooper’s season doesn’t scream Super Bowl playmaker. He’s only had 26 targets this year. Out of those, he’s only caught 21 for 263 yards and two touchdowns. He’s also only had four targets in the three playoff games. Again, this is just a gut feeling.
The Seahawks’ defense has been very good this year. However, they still rank 21st for points allowed to tight ends. Even though that’s only equated to 0.32 touchdowns to the tight end position per game, it’s still one of the spots where they tend to allow catches.
The way I see this playing out is the Patriots getting down to the two-yard line. They bring in a jumbo package that seems like Rhamondre Stevenson will be called on to pound the rock in. After faking the handoff, Maye will roll to his left. Hooper will have started to block as if the play was a run, disengage, and be open in the endzone for an easy touchdown. Patriots score to take the lead, and we cash our +850. Low risk, high reward, this is the kind of bet I love.
