The Green Bay Packers (11-4) and Minnesota Vikings (13-2) will face off in a pivotal NFC North matchup at U.S. Bank Stadium. Kickoff is set for 4:25 p.m. ET.
Beyond spread and total bets, I'm looking at Packers vs. Vikings anytime touchdown scorers and have a pick for each team.
Here are my two NFL anytime touchdown scorer bets for Sunday evening's contest.
Packers vs. Vikings Anytime Touchdown Scorer Props
Jayden Reed Anytime Touchdown (+190)
I’ve been waiting for a decent game to get back on the Jayden Reed train, and this one matches up perfectly.
Reed has done well in games without Christian Watson in his career, with four touchdowns scored in five games (three receiving, one rushing) since the start of last season while racking up 36 targets in those games. He also played a season-high 76% of snaps in the game Watson missed against the Rams in Week 5 and has been the Packers' best receiver against zone defenses this season with 3.05 yards per route run.
When Reed played in Minnesota last season (without Watson), he scored two receiving touchdowns on 10 targets and he also scored on them when the Vikings went to Green Bay in Week 4. Even though Minnesota ranks second in defensive DVOA against the pass, we’ve still seen the Vikings allow 17 touchdowns to receivers (tied for fourth most), so let’s keep at it with Reed this week.
Jordan Addison Anytime Touchdown (+175)
Although I can easily make a case for why I like WR Justin Jefferson to score again this week, I'd rather just take WR2 Jordan Addison at this stage.
Addison is second on the Vikings with eight receiving touchdowns and has done well against zone defenses, which the Packers play at a top-seven rate.
When these two teams played earlier in the season, Addison scored a receiving touchdown and a rushing touchdown. He also has 12 red-zone targets in the last five games alone.
