The Pittsburgh Steelers (10-4) and Baltimore Ravens (9-5) will face off in the second Saturday NFL matchup of the season at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Kickoff is set for 4:30 p.m. ET on FOX.
Beyond spread and total bets, I'm looking at Steelers vs. Ravens anytime touchdown scorers and have a pick for each team for this Saturday.
Here are my two NFL anytime touchdown scorer bets for today's contest.
Steelers vs. Ravens Anytime Touchdown Scorer Props
- Pat Freiermuth Anytime Touchdown (+320)
- Mark Andrews Anytime Touchdown (+200)
Pat Freiermuth Anytime Touchdown (+320)
The last time these two teams met, it was a classic AFC North defensive battle with kicker Chris Boswell having six field goals in the win. Even with a total of 44.5, I think there won’t be much scoring in this game and am seeing early reports of a lot of wind in the forecast.
I’d also imagine we’ll see both teams lean heavily on the run. The Steelers gave 27 carries to RB Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren in their win over Baltimore early in the season, and with the uncertainty of WR George Pickens, stick to the run game if you’re betting Pittsburgh TD scorers.
RB Jaylen Warren (+330) could see more work this week, especially in the short passing game in the elements, although Harris at +145 is also intriguing.
Another option would be TE Pat Freiermuth, who has scored now in three straight games and has become a reliable target in the end zone for QB Russell Wilson. Out of those three, I’d stick to Muth, but make sure you get +300 or better.
Mark Andrews Anytime Touchdown (+200)
For the Ravens, we saw backup RB Justice Hill score a touchdown last week, but that was in a blowout where he scored the last touchdown of the game.
The Steelers have been pretty stingy to passing-down backs this season, and the threat of Derrick Henry acts as a decoy better for QB Lamar Jackson to scramble.
TE Mark Andrews at +200 or better should catch your eye, since he’s caught a TD in four of the last five games, and by default, he’s who I’d lean toward.
However, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention that Andrews has played the Steelers 10 times in his career, and has never scored a TD against them.
