Thursday Night Football opens the NFL Week 12 schedule with the Pittsburgh Steelers (8-2) visiting the Cleveland Browns (2-8) for an AFC North rivalry game. The Browns’ offense has come alive since Jameis Winston took over for Deshaun Watson (Achilles), and the Steelers’ defense has been lights out during a five-game winning streak.  

We’re taking a look at some of the best odds at bet365 for anytime touchdown bets to consider for the NFL Week 12 Thursday Night Football matchup. Odds and same-game parlays are often boosted at bet365 sportsbook, so keep an eye on NFL touchdown odds for this game and future games throughout the weekend. 

Najee Harris Week 12 Anytime Touchdown

  • The Steelers failed to find the end zone last week during an 18-16 win over the Ravens, but Baltimore’s defense has allowed just four rushing touchdowns all season. Harris is a prime candidate to find the end zone against a Cleveland defense that is allowing 1.4 rushing touchdowns per game, which is tied for the fourth-highest mark in the NFL. While Jaylen Warren (knee) is expected to play, he fumbled at the goal line in Week 10 against the Commanders and could be unlikely to steal goal-line work from Harris, who has handled 20 red zone touches over four games since Russell Wilson took over as Pittsburgh’s quarterback. Harris has scored in three of his last five games and rushed for a touchdown in each of his first four career games against Cleveland. 

George Pickens Week 12 Anytime Touchdown

  • Pickens has been thriving with Wilson under center, securing 22 of 33 targets in his last four outings. He has scored twice in that span and had a couple of touchdowns wiped off the board in a primetime spot against the Giants in Week 8. Top Cleveland cornerback Denzel Ward (chest) is expected to play tonight but could be limited on a short week. Pickens has drawn the fifth-most red zone targets (14) among wideouts this season and the fourth-most deep targets (19) at the position. Wilson is willing to air it out to his top receiver, and the addition of Mike Williams (+500 to score a touchdown) has kept defenses honest on the other side of the field.  

David Njoku Week 12 Anytime Touchdown

  • Cleveland’s run game has been ineffective all season and didn’t show many signs of life in a plus matchup at New Orleans last week. So, rather than taking Nick Chubb at +150 to find the end zone, we could consider the Browns’ big-bodied tight end. Njoku is averaging 6.3 catches for 57 yards per game over three starts with Winston at quarterback and caught a touchdown against AFC North rival Baltimore in Winston’s first start. The Steelers have allowed three receiving touchdowns to tight ends this season, and aside from the Ravens, the only tight end they’ve faced who is a true top option for the opposing passing offense was Raiders rookie Brock Bowers

Elijah Moore Week 12 Anytime Touchdown

  • Jerry Jeudy had a huge game at New Orleans last week, so the Steelers should be focused on containing him on the outside. Pittsburgh is a bit vulnerable in the slot, where Moore will operate against undrafted rookie Beanie Bishop Jr. Moore has drawn 29 targets in three outings with Winston under center and caught a touchdown while nabbing six receptions last week against the Saints. Again, the Browns have struggled to run the ball and have been airing it out with Winston, giving their receivers a better shot than average to score from inside or outside the red zone.
