Betting NFL parlays via Anytime Touchdown Scorers 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 type of bet, 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 3-leg NFL Anytime TD parlay that equates to +1800 or more. $10 per parlay ticket, $180 total for the season.
The goal is 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 (which is unfortunate), 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. We finally hit our 22-1 parlay last week. That means we’re playing with house money the rest of the season, for those who have followed.
Disclaimer: 18-1 parlays have less than 5% chance of hitting, and that percentage only shrinks as you increase the parlay odds. Keep your expectations in check and bet on these for recreation.
Read below for my +2026 NFL parlay picks for Week 7 at FanDuel.
NFL Parlay Week 7
- DK Metcalf Anytime Touchdown (+145)
- Devonta Smith Anytime Touchdown (+210)
- George Kittle Anytime Touchdown (+180)
Parlay Odds: +2026 (FanDuel)
DK Metcalf has been targeted 30 times in the Seahawks' last three games, but he's scored a grand total of zero touchdowns during that span.
However, the Seahawks will visit Atlanta this week, which is a great matchup for Metcalf.
The Falcons have surrendered four touchdowns to opposing teams' top wideout in their last five games, and they've allowed eight touchdowns to WRs on the season, overall.
The Falcons rank 26thin defensive DVOA against opposing WR1s. So, I expect Geno to look for DK early and often in this one.
Devonta Smith returned from injury for the Eagles last week. He played 100% of the team's offensive snaps and scored a touchdown in a narrow 20-16 win over Cleveland.
Smith is now averaging eight targets per game with two touchdown grabs on the season.
Over the course of his career, Smith has had some of his biggest games in matchups against the Giants. He's scored four TDs in six career matchups against the G-Men.
All eyes will be on Saquon Barkley in his return to MetLife Stadium this Sunday. However, my sights are set on Devonta in the anytime TD market.
George Kittle has been an absolute touchdown machine this year. He enters this week having scored a TD in four straight games, and this week's matchup against Kansas City is another great spot for the 49ers' tight end.
The Chiefs rank 19th in defensive DVOA against the tight end position this season. They’ve also allowed the most targets to TEs in the entire NFL.
In a high-profile matchup like this, bet on a stud like Kittle to perform.
