One of the NFL player prop markets that has gained popularity over the last couple years has been this Anytime Touchdown market.
It makes sense, of course, as there is nothing more electric when watching an NFL game than correctly calling your shot on a player to get into the end zone.
So, with that thought in mind, please check out our favorite NFL Anytime Touchdown predictions for Week 9.
A.J. Brown Anytime TD (+125) FanDuel
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Philadelphia Eagles, 4:05 p.m. ET
One of our favorite NFL player props of the week is A.J. Brown to record at least 80 receiving yards.
A lot of the logic for why we like Brown and his receiving prop also applies to his Anytime Touchdown prop.

For starters, Brown has scored a touchdown in three of the four games that he has played this season. He missed three games with a hamstring injury and the Eagles have had their bye week, but, when he has been on the field, Brown has been phenomenal.
The only game this season in which Brown did not score a touchdown was last week's game against the Bengals, which makes today a great bounce-back spot for his touchdown prop specifically.
Not only that, but this is a great matchup for Brown against this horrid Jaguars defense. According to DVOA, the Jaguars have the worst passing defense in the NFL. They have allowed the fifth-most passing TDs to WRs per game and the fourth-most receiving yards to WRs as well.
Look for Brown to get into the end zone after missing last week.

De'Von Achane Anytime TD (+135) DraftKings
Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills, 1 p.m. ET
Similar to A.J. Brown and his receiving yards prop, we also liked Achane's reception prop as one of our favorite NFL player props of the slate. Achane getting into the end zone is another prop that we love.
This is all predicated on Achane's role in the offense, along with Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa being back as the starter.
Achane has scored a touchdown in three games this season, and Tua Tagovailoa has started in three games this season. As you probably guessed, those just so happened to be the same exact three games.
Achane scored in the first two games of the year (Tagovailoa got hurt in the second start), and then did not score again until last week, which was Tagovailoa's first start back from his concussion.
While the Bills rush defense has gotten better over the course of the season, the beauty of backing Achane is how much work he gets in the receiving game as well.
He has a combined five red zone targets alone in the three games that Tagovailoa has started, and that does not even get into his big-play ability. Achane's speed makes him a threat to take one to the house from anywhere on the field.
This is a great price as well, making Achane one of our favorite Anytime Touchdown bets of Week 9.

Michael Pittman Jr. Anytime TD (+210) Caesars
Indianapolis Colts vs. Minnesota Vikings, 8:20 p.m. ET
There is no denying that it has been somewhat of a rough season for Pittman Jr., but he is our favorite bet to score a touchdown in this Sunday Night Football matchup.
He has only scored two touchdowns this year, but both of those touchdowns just so happened to come in the two starts that Flacco has made.
Flacco played 80 percent of the snaps in another game this year in which Pittman Jr. did not score a touchdown, but he did receive two red zone targets in that game.
Overall, in three games with Flacco under center, Pittman Jr. has five red zone targets and two touchdowns.
In the five games in which Anthony Richardson played the majority of snaps, Pittman Jr. had one red zone target and no touchdowns.
Now, he gets a matchup against the Vikings, who have allowed the second-most passing yards and the most passing TDs specifically to WRs per game since Week 2.
Look for Pittman Jr. to get into the end zone now that the Colts have better QB play in Joe Flacco over Anthony Richardson.
