Best anytime TD bets for Ravens vs. Bengals
- Gus Edwards anytime TD (+220)
- Zay Flowers anytime TD (+225)
- Ravens defense anytime TD (+850)
Gus Edwards anytime TD (+220)
JK Dobbins went down with yet another unfortunate injury in Week 1 against the Texans, which leaves the backfield duties to Gus Edwards and Justice Hill. Both backs ran the ball eight times in Week 1, but it was Edwards who was much more effective. He averaged 4.0 yards per carry while Hill averaged just 1.1.
If we're going to bet on any running back to find the end zone, it has to be Edwards at +220.
Zay Flowers anytime TD (+225)
Zay Flowers announced his presence in his NFL debut, hauling in nine receptions on 10 targets for 78 total receiving yards. He as the only receiving to see more than three targets, so we already know who the No. 1 guy at wideout is.
It isn't OBJ and it isn't Rashod Bateman. It's Flowers.
Ravens defense anytime TD (+850)
This is a long shot bet, but I think it's worth a shot. Joe Burrow had one of the worst performances of his career in Week 1 against the Browns and it's clear he needs some time to find his groove since returning from his calf injury.
Meanwhile, the Ravens defense looks to be a top tier unit this season and they should be able to get after Burrow on Sunday. I wouldn't be shocked to see them score a touchdown on a scoop-and-score or a pick six. I love this as a longshot bet at +850 odds.
