Top TD Picks: RJ Harvey , Colby Parkinson
We’re all set for an intriguing Week 3 Sunday Night Football between the Los Angeles Rams and Denver Broncos. The Rams are coming off a bounce-back game, where they took care of business against the Giants. The Broncos got back on track as well, locking in a much-needed win vs. the Jaguars. This could be a low-scoring game, as reflected in the 43.5-point total, so we’re going to dig a bit deeper than the usual suspects for our touchdown props.

RJ Harvey Touchdown Odds
RJ Harvey missed Week 2, but he’s good to go for this one. What I like about taking Harvey is you get him at nearly +300 odds, which is a much better value than JK Dobbins, who is at around +130. This is despite the fact that the Broncos deploy a committee in their backfield.
Even better, Jonah Coleman has been ruled out for this game, which means that there’s one fewer runner to be concerned about. To that end, Harvey could get a bit more touches than usual.
While it’s true that Dobbins is the preferred back in the red zone, it’s not like the Broncos don’t give Harvey a few carries there, either. There’s even the outside chance that Harvey leads the team in touches here, as he got more work than expected in Week 1.
In a game where touchdowns could be hard to come by, target one with an appealing price. That’s Harvey here.
Colby Parkinson Touchdown Odds
With Puka Nacua out, the Rams will have to rely on Davante Adams and their tight ends for this game once again. Last week, Terrance Ferguson had a big game, and he’s definitely the more likely player to find the end zone. However, I’m going with Colby Parkinson because you get a better price on him at around +300 odds.
Remember, Parkinson was a major threat in the red zone for the Rams last year, scoring eight touchdowns. He hasn’t found pay dirt just yet, but this could be the spot where he gets it done.
This is a bet on a player who could see more targets than usual, coming in at an appealing price. We’ll take a shot on Parkinson to score his first TD of the year here.
