Panthers vs Packers Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks

Tetairoa McMillan Anytime Touchdown (+180)

Tetairoa McMillan has only scored in one game this season (when he had two touchdowns in Week 4), but the volume has been there.

McMillan leads the Panthers in targets per game but has been a bit unlucky in the touchdown department. He has 5 end-zone targets and his 30% first-read target share is first on the team.

The Packers' pass defense has been pretty decent overall, but we’ve seen games where they've been suspect — like last week when Jared Goff put up 302 passing yards and two touchdowns on them.

They also play zone coverage at the 10th-highest rate and two-high safety at the third-highest rate. That should set up well for McMillan, who leads the Panthers in targets per route run and yards per route run against those coverages.

Pick: Tetairoa McMillan Anytime Touchdown (+180, DraftKings)

Darren Waller Anytime Touchdown (+400)

Darren Waller is healthy and not on the injury report entering tonight's game, which is great news after he scored a 50-yard touchdown on National Tight Ends Day.

Waller is second on the Panthers in end-zone targets behind McMillan. The veteran tight end doesn’t get a ton of volume, but his role is consistent as a big target for Bryce Young in the end zone.

I think the Panthers may have to throw a lot in this game in a trailing game script, and Waller sets up well to get another score.

Pick: Darren Waller Anytime Touchdown (+400, DraftKings)
