Anytime touchdown scorer predictions Week 15: Saturday
Let the Raiders' 63-point outburst on Thursday Night Football, one week after being shut out by the Vikings, dispel any concerns you may have in regard to backing QB Nick Mullens and the Vikings offense on Saturday.
While the Vikings managed to put just three points on the board last week, this is a whole new game. And it's one that sets up well for tight end T.J. Hockenson, who played 93% of the snaps and reeled in five of eight targets for 53 yards last week.
Hockenson shares the Vikings' team lead with 16 red-zone targets this season. He has caught 11 of those for four touchdowns. Saturday, he faces a Bengals team that gave up a touchdown to a tight end each of the last two weeks, with a league-high 333 yards allowed to the position over the last four weeks.
Hockenson is projected for a modest 0.3 touchdown s on Saturday. Our odds converter translates that 30% implied probability to odds of +235, but we're able to get a little extra value from bet365's +240 odds offering. Get the best price via our bet365 bonus code: SBRBONUS.

Anytime touchdown scorer predictions Week 15: Thursday Night Football
The Raiders scored zero points during a Week 14 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. However, they're 3-point home favorites on TNF with Stick, a fifth-round pick, making his first career start for the Chargers. Las Vegas is also getting an implied team total of 19.
Mayer's only touchdown of 2023 came in Week 10 against the New York Jets when he hauled in his only red-zone target. In the three games, since he has caught seven of 11 targets and interim head coach Antonio Pierce spoke fondly of the rookie's development a week ago.
Mayer continues to command the lion's share of snaps for the Raiders' tight ends, hitting a season-high of 94% last week. He now faces a Chargers team that has allowed more yards to tight ends than all but four teams, to go along with four touchdowns allowed to the position.
FanDuel is offering +550 odds for Mayer to hit paydirt during TNF with Caesars setting the market-low at +450.
