The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to take on the Detroit Lions off their bye Week. They currently hold sole possession of first place in the NFC South, but they may need to win again on Sunday to keep that spot.

Best Anytime TD Bets for Lions vs. Buccaneers

  • Cade Otton Anytime TD (+310)
  • Ke'Shawn Vaughn Anytime TD (+370)
  • Sam LaPorta Anytime TD (+180)

Cade Otton Anytime TD (+310)

Not enough people are talking about Cade Otton, who is behind only Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in targets (15) and receiving yards (89) through their first four games.

He also has already scored one touchdown on the season, so we know that he has a nose for the end zone. At +310, this might be the best value bet on the board.

Ke'Shawn Vaughn Anytime TD (+370)

The Buccaneers' run game has struggled this week, ranking dead last in the NFL in yards per carry, averaging just 3.0 yards per rush.

As a result, they may look to other options to try to get their running game improved. Vaughn may be the answer to their problems and as a result, he had nine carries and one reception in Week 4 against the Saints. If that continues into Week 6 he may be a great candidate to score a touchdown.

Sam LaPorta Anytime TD (+180)

If we have to bet on a member of the Lions to score a touchdown, let's make it the rookie tight end, Sam LaPorta, who has impressed in a big way so far this season. He only has one fewer reception than Amon-Ra St. Brown and he has already found the end zone three times.

I love his odds to score again at +180 if you can stomach betting on a Lion.
