The touchdown market has become one of the most popular and potentially profitable props in the NFL betting world. Each week, we’re going to throw down three to five units as we try to uncover some of the best weekly NFL TD props and dig into the matchups that surround them.

We’re banking on the Texans giving up more touchdowns again this week, trying to find some value in a pair of backfields that are reshuffling, and playing a tight end in a plus-plus matchup.

Without further ado:

Another Thursday, another week of looking for gag-inducing TNF picks with the injury-riddled New Orleans Saints visiting the pathetic offense of the Arizona Cardinals.

After witnessing the Commanders/Bears clash last week, trying to find compelling Saints-Cardinals props or betting storylines seems like an effort in vain. If only there was a juicy storyline or a savior to rush in and save us from another ho-hum game…

Dramatic pause. Looks to the sky. Sees a silhouette of a deity-like figure with dreadlocks.

Our prayers have been answered, as DeAndre Hopkins will make his season debut in Week 7!

For one week at least, we don’t have to bet on struggling (or backup) quarterbacks, a third-string wide receiver, or a star running back who largely get…

It’s set to be Austin Ekeler or bust for the banged-up L.A. Chargers in the Week 15 odds opening matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders — and the latest TNF odds suggest points will come at a premium at Allegiant Stadium.

By any measure, it’s been a rough week for the Chargers. Justin Herbert was ruled out for the rest of the season after breaking a finger against the Denver Broncos, and top receiver Keenan Allen will miss this TNF showdown with a heel injury. 

That leaves Easton Stick as the starting quarterback for L.A. and there are plenty of unknowns hovering around the Chargers vs Raiders props. One thing is clear though: the Chargers need production from Ekeler more than ever.

Here, we take a closer look at Austin Ekeler’s od…

After a contentious joint practice, the New York Jets will face off against the Carolina Panthers in a preseason showdown on Saturday night.

The Jets scored a 27-0 win over the Panthers in the preseason last year, but it is Carolina that comes into this game as the slight favorite in the NFL odds.

Regardless, my Jets vs. Panthers predictions break down why New York holds the edge in this exhibition clash. Let’s get into it with our free NFL picks for August 17.

Both teams come into Saturday’s game with more injuries than you’d normally expect in the preseason. Thursday’s joint practice between the New York Jets a…

Kylian Mbappe has promised to get better next season after helping newly-crowned French champions Monaco end Paris Saint-Germain s Ligue 1 dominance.

PSG had a stranglehold on Ligue 1, winning four successive titles but Mbappe and his youthful Monaco team-mates burst onto the scene to end that run on Wednesday.

France international teenager Mbappe was on target as Monaco claimed their first top-flight title since 2000 with a 2-0 win at home to Saint-Etienne.

The coveted 18-year-old took his goal tally to 15 in Ligue 1 but he issued a warning to French football and Europe amid the wild championship celebrations as the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester United circle.

After the victory in Gambardella [last season], my mother told me: It s all very well, b…

Mexico have appointed Javier Aguirre as their head coach for a third time after Jaime Lozano was sacked in the wake of their disappointing Copa America campaign.

Mexico finished third in Group B in the United States, only scoring once in their three group-stage matches as they finished behind Venezuela and Ecuador.

El Tri have now suffered three group-stage exits in their last four participations at the Copa America (also in 2011 and 2015), having reached at least the semi-finals at five of their first seven editions.

Lozano paid the price for their failure to reach the knockout stages as he was sacked less than a year after taking over, with the Mexican Football Federation saying he rejected the chance to stay on in a backroom role under a new boss.

Agui…

Borussia Dortmund s failed Bundesliga title bid will be remembered for lost opportunities, occasionally glittering football and the emergence of a world-class talent.

That talent is Jadon Sancho.

And while a league title would have been just reward for an outstanding campaign, the pain of losing out to Bayern Munich – who confirmed their triumph on Saturday by thumping Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 – is at least tempered by unearthing one of Europe s rising stars.

The teenage winger gambled on his future when he left Manchester City in 2017, but the fruits of first-team football have paid off.

And these staggering Opta statistics present the picture of a player who, at just 19, could be set to take the world by storm.

Lionel Messi failed to find the net once again on Wednesday as Barcelona crashed out of the Champions League to Atletico Madrid, with the Argentinian s 452-minute goal drought his worst such run since April 2010.

Messi is searching for his 450th Barcelona goal as he looks to further etch his name into club folklore with another milestone, but he has been stuck on 449 since March 16, when he netted the third in a 3-1 win over Arsenal.

Since then the Argentina star has failed to net in five successive matches, with Villarreal, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid – twice – keeping him at bay.

The last time Messi endured such a run was April 2010, when he failed to score for 474 minutes across all competitions.

Messi s barren run is coinciding …

Covers is throwing an entry into the Circa Million Pro Football contest for the 2021 season and Adam Chernoff has been tabbed to make the weekly picks so let’s dig right in.

Through 70 picks, I am one point out of the money. To try to gain ground, I submitted bets early and picked KC with the hope of getting a win on a game few were picking due to COVID news. So far, the strategy has paid off. KC won and covered, and the four bets I made on Sunday do not appear to be impacted by COVID – for now.

Alvin Kamara has been integral to the Saints’ offensive success this season, and his contributions will be crucial in this contest once again. Will he put forth another excellent performance against the Ravens, or will he falter under the bright lights?
