Can You Bet on Passing Touchdowns?ย 

Yes, bettors can bet on passing touchdowns for each quarterback.ย 

Traditionally, quarterbacks have their touchdown pass lines set at 0.5, 1.5 or 2.5 with varying prices on both the over and under.ย 

How Do Anytime Touchdown Bets Work?ย 

For a player to cash his anytime touchdown bet, they must physically enter the end zone with possession of the ball.ย 

This can be accomplished via multiple different scenarios. The most obvious is a rushing touchdown or receiving touchdown by a skill player.ย 

This can also be accomplished by a quarterback who runs the ball in or catches a pass, a la Nick Foles in Super Bowl 52.ย 

Bettors can also wager on team defenses and special teams to score a touchdown. Be it an interception return, fumble recovery or kick return, this is how bettors would cash that market.ย 

In that instance, bettors donโ€™t play specific defensive players or kick returners. The event is unlikely enough that sportsbooks offer the entire defense as a unit.ย 

What is a No Touchdown Score Bet?ย 

A no touchdown score bet occurs when bettors think neither team will score a touchdown in a game.ย 

Depending on the gameโ€™s total, the price on each โ€œNo Touchdownโ€ market can vary.ย 

In Week 16, Chiefs vs. Texans has no touchdown priced at +5000 while Cowboys vs. Buccaneers has no touchdown priced at +10000.ย
