Lions vs Eagles Anytime Touchdown Picks
Amon-Ra St. Brown Anytime Touchdown (+130)
Amon-Ra St. Brown enters Week 11 with eight receiving touchdowns already on the season, putting him among the league leaders and on pace for another double-digit TD campaign. He's Detroit's clear alpha receiver in one of the NFL's most explosive offenses, and his role in scoring situations makes him a red-zone monster.
When the Lions get inside the opponents' 10-yard line, Jared Goff locks in on St. Brown like no one else — he has 11 targets inside the 10, which ranks second in the NFL among all pass-catchers (WRs and TEs combined). That's elite volume in the highest-leverage spots, and it's no surprise he's converted that usage into consistent trips to the end zone.
Yes, tonight's matchup on the road against Philadelphia is tougher — the Eagles have a strong secondary and rank well in red-zone defense. But we're getting St. Brown at plus-money odds (currently sitting around +125 at most books) when his true probability feels closer to a -105 or -110 based on his season-long role and production. That's straight-up value.
The cherry on top: Sam LaPorta has been ruled out with a back injury. LaPorta is Jared Goff's usual safety valve in the red zone and has been stealing a handful of those high-value targets all year.
With LaPorta sidelined, St. Brown's already massive target share should balloon further, especially in scoring range where Detroit loves to throw.
At plus odds in a game where the Lions are projected to score plenty, St. Brown is one of the sharpest anytime TD bets on the board this week.
Pick: Amon-Ra St. Brown Anytime Touchdown (+130; bet365)
Brock Wright Anytime Touchdown (+425)
With Sam LaPorta officially ruled out (back), it’s next man up at tight end for Detroit — and that’s Brock Wright, who steps into a golden opportunity in the red zone.
Wright already has two touchdowns this season despite limited snaps, and over his five-year career with the Lions, he’s racked up 11 total touchdowns, proving he’s a reliable finisher when given the chance.
He’s not flashy, but he’s a big-bodied, red-zone specialist who knows how to box out defenders and come down with contested catches. The volume has been suppressed playing behind one of the league’s top TEs, but LaPorta’s absence changes everything. Last year, in the only game LaPorta missed, Wright scored a touchdown.
That’s not a coincidence — when he gets starter-level snaps, he produces in scoring position. Against Philadelphia, the Lions may need to lean heavier on the pass in a potential shootout environment.
With Goff likely targeting the middle of the field more without LaPorta, Wright becomes the primary in-line option at +400 or better — massive overlay for a player who’s now the clear TE1 in a high-scoring offense.
At 4-to-1 or higher, Brock Wright is a sharp, situational sprinkle with real touchdown upside. Don’t sleep on the backup who’s been waiting for his shot.
Pick: Brock Wright Anytime Touchdown (+425; bet365)
Editor's Note: An anytime touchdown parlay is not the author's formal recommendation. These touchdown picks have value as straight bets.
