Betting on NFL Anytime Touchdown parlays is incredibly fun, even if they’re mostly a losing proposition that will drain your bankroll if you’re not careful. Most sportsbooks tend to clean up on this bet type, so how do we scratch the “parlay itch” without overextending ourselves financially?
Allow me to introduce “The 180 Challenge”. Here’s how it works:
Each week, I'll be betting a three-leg Anytime TD parlay that equates to +1800 or more at BetMGM. $10 per parlay ticket, $180 total for the season.
A NEW piece of NFL content I'll be doing this year for @ActionNetworkHQ involves Anytime TD parlays.
It's called "The 180 Challenge". Here's how it works:

The goal is obviously to win as much as possible. BUT, the safety net is you only need to hit one parlay all season to make your money back. If you go 0-18, the positive spin is it's only $180. This way, we can still participate with fun touchdown parlays while managing our bankroll and not going overboard on bad spending habits.
Disclaimer: 18-1 parlays have less than a 5% chance of hitting. That percentage only shrinks as you increase the parlay odds. Keep your expectations in check and bet on these for recreation.
Here’s my Anytime Touchdown Parlay for Week 2 at +2039 at BetMGM.
Michael Pittman Jr.
Anytime Touchdown Scorer +190
Pittman registered 11 targets (two in the red zone) and scored a touchdown. He’s the clear No. 1 option for the Colts and Anthony Richardson.
I’m not totally sold on the Texans defense – not to mention Pittman scored against Houston in both games last year despite having Matt Ryan and Sam Ehlinger at quarterback.
Gabe Davis
Anytime Touchdown Scorer +210
Davis made no impact in the Bills’ Week 1 snafu against the Jets. The good news? He played 94% of snaps. The fact that this is a home game also helps Davis’ cause – 70% of his career touchdowns have come at Highmark Stadium.
DK Metcalf
Anytime Touchdown Scorer +138
A target machine in the red zone, Metcalf logged his first touchdown of the season last week against the Rams.
Metcalf was third in red-zone targets last year but only got one look from Geno Smith in Week 1.
Last season against the Lions, he went off for seven receptions and 143 yards. He might’ve scored if he didn’t have to go No. 2 during the game.
DK Metcalf got carted off the field to use the bathroom.
King energy.
