Talent alone isn’t always enough to get you the lion’s share of the game plan pointed toward your direction. Sometimes you need some outside factors, and unfortunately, in the NFL specifically, those opportunities often come because of injury. That’s the situation for George Pickens, who, despite being a talented receiver, would never be Dallas’ focal point with CeeDee Lamb healthy. However, Lamb (ankle) missed Week 4 after playing only three snaps in Week 3 and Pickens has three touchdowns and 20 targets over that span. With a matchup against the Jets on Sunday, the SportsLine Machine Learning Model projects Pickens to find the end zone again as an anytime touchdown scorer, making him a top value at -135 odds at FanDuel for Week 5 anytime TD scorer bets.
Targeting anytime touchdown bets is one way to approach Week 5 NFL betting at online sports betting sites. With NFL props available for almost every player in every game at sportsbooks, the SportsLine Machine Learning Model can help you find value to add to your Week 5 NFL picks. It can also help new users take advantage of sportsbook promos like the latest FanDuel promo code, where new users receive $300 in bonus bets if your first bet wins.
Best Week 5 NFL anytime touchdown picks:
- Omarion Hampton, Chargers, (-135)
- George Pickens, Cowboys (+105)
- Michael Pittman Jr., Colts (+165)
Parlay these picks for +875 odds with a DraftKings promo code, which gives new users $200 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins:(odds subject to change)
Omarion Hampton, Chargers (-135)
After failing to find the end zone in either of his first two NFL games, Hampton has scored in back-to-back contest anad he’s coming off rushing for 128 yards and a touchdown on 10.7 yards per carry in a 21-18 loss to the Giants last week. He also had five receptions for 37 yards as a pivotal part of all aspects of the offense. Hampton played 89% of snaps last week after playing 79% the week before. The Chargers were without Najee Harris, who is out the remainder of the season, for the first time last week, so Hampton could continue to see a significant worload.
The Chargers play the Commanders, who allowed a touchdown to the opposing team’s RB1 in two of the last three weeks. The model expects Hampton’s opportunity and success to continue in a solid matchup on Sunday to find the end zone. You can play Hampton to score a touchdown on FanDuel at -135 odds, whereas some betting apps have him as high as -150 odds, and you can use the latest FanDuel promo code to receive $300 in bonus bets if your first bet wins.
George Pickens, Cowboys (+105)
Pickens has scored a touchdown in back-to-back weeks, including having eight receptions for 134 yards and two touchdowns last week. He had 11 targets in his first full game without CeeDee Lamb (ankle), whether Lamb is out or trying to play a less than full health, Pickens should be an integral part of the game plan yet again. The Cowboys have the No. 5 scoring offense at 28.5 ppg this season, and Dak Prescott leads the NFL in pass attempts (166), creating more touchdown opportunities for Pickens.
The Cowboys play the Jets, who rank 28th in scoring defense at 30 points per game allowed. The Jets have allowed at least 27 points in all four games this season, making this a strong matchup for Dallas. Pickens will likely generate another significant target share against a struggling defense, making him a top value for Week 5 anytime touchdown scorers. Caesars Sportsbook offers Pickens at +105 odds to score a touchdown, and with the latest Caesars Sportsbook promo code CBS20X, new users can receive 20 100% profit boost tokens with their first $1 bet.
Michael Pittman Jr., Colts (+165)
Pittman has a touchdown in three of four games this season, including in each of the last two weeks. Pittman already has one fewer touchdown than he has in any season since scoring six times in 2021, and Daniel Jones can take much of the credit for that. Having Jones as his quarterback was seen as a hindrance by many entering the season, but Jones is averaging a career-best 269.5 passing yards per game in his seventh NFL season.
The Colts are playing the Raiders, who rank 22nd in the NFL in scoring defense at 24.8 ppg this season. Las Vegas has allowed at least 25 points in back-to-back games, allowing 33 ppg during that span, and the Colts have the No.4 scoring offense at 30.8 ppg this season. At +165 odds, the model sees strong value in Pittman scoring a touchdown and you can find this number at FanDuel.

Chris Jones on Mistake in Chiefs Loss to Jaguars: ‘It’s a Teaching Point for Me’
Chris Jones took ownership of his mistake on the decisive play in the Kansas City Chiefs' loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, when the three-time All-Pro defensive tackle thought Trevor Lawrence was down and stopped on the play, only to watch the Jaguars quarterback scramble to his feet and into the end zone.Lawrence's touchdown with 23 seconds remaining gave the Jaguars a 31-28 victory over the Chiefs."It's a teaching point for me. A little adversity. I can't think the play is over, you know what I mean?" Jones said Thursday, the day he typically speaks to local reporters. "It's a learning lesson. I thought it was over, thought we had him down."The Jaguars faced first-and-goal at the 1-yard line following a pass interference penalty. But they did not have any timeouts, so if Lawrence had been tagged down on […]
