Green Bay Packers First TD Scorer: Aaron Jones (RB – GB) +310
The Packers’ offense hasn’t been what fans expected this season. Yet, Jones has been a consistent bright spot. He is second on the team with five total touchdowns. However, he was first on the team until Christian Watson’s historic play the past two weeks. Meanwhile, the Eagles have surrendered 10 touchdowns to running backs this season, with half of them being the first touchdown of the game for the opposing team. Furthermore, the first touchdown given up by the Eagles has been to a running back in two straight contests. Philadelphia has an elite secondary and has given up only six receiving touchdowns to wide receivers this season. Therefore, Jones should see plenty of work early and often in this game.

Philadelphia Eagles First TD Scorer: Jalen Hurts (QB – PHI) +360
What a year the young superstar quarterback has put together. Hurts is 11th in the NFL with 15 passing touchdowns. Yet, his eight rushing touchdowns are the most among quarterbacks and fourth-most in the league overall. More importantly, the franchise quarterback has scored the first Philadelphia touchdown in half of the games this season, including two weeks ago against the Washington Commanders. Meanwhile, the Packers haven’t faced many running quarterbacks this season. However, Justin Fields scored the first Chicago Bears touchdown in the Week 2 matchup against Green Bay. More aggressive bettors should also consider Hurts to score two or more touchdowns at +550. He has scored two rushing touchdowns in 20% of the games this season.

Anytime TD Scorer: Aaron Jones (RB – GB) +115
Typically I try to avoid using the same player twice in this article, but Jones has the best chance of finding the end zone tonight. While the rookie Watson has been on fire lately, catching five touchdown passes over the past two weeks, the Philadelphia secondary has been excellent this season. They have given up only six receiving touchdowns to the position, the third-fewest in the NFL. Furthermore, the Eagles have held wide receivers to only one touchdown over the past five contests. Meanwhile, Philadelphia has surrendered three rushing touchdowns to running backs over the past two weeks. Given the matchup, expect Jones to be the focal point of the Green Bay offense tonight.

Anytime TD Scorer: Miles Sanders (RB – PHI) -110
Last year, Sanders had 137 rushing attempts but never scored a touchdown. This year the former Penn State star already has six touchdowns on 156 rushing attempts. His six touchdowns are the second-most on the team behind Hurts. More importantly, he has 50% more touchdowns than Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott combined. While Sanders hasn’t scored a touchdown over the past two weeks, the Eagles have faced two elite run defenses. However, the veteran running back had five rushing touchdowns in the previous five contests. Meanwhile, the Packers have surrendered three touchdowns to running backs over the past two weeks. Sanders should have no trouble ending his touchdown drought tonight against Green Bay.
