Week 4 Touchdown Scorer Predictions

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley: Rush+Rec TD Scorer 

Date: Sunday, September 29, 2024

Time: 1:00 p.m. ET Kickoff

Location: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Fla.

TV: FOX, NFL+, YouTube TV

In Week 2, Saquon Barkley sold me with his TD scorer prediction. He failed to reach the end zone against the Falcons, and his solid game was overshadowed by a pass drop that would ultimately cost them the game. 

Barkley bounced back tremendously in Week 3, rushing for 147 yards and 2 touchdowns. Proving that his Week 2 performance was the result of playing a defense that has only allowed 1 rushing touchdown through three weeks.

Hopefully I’m not jinxing him again, but Barkley is one of the best touchdown scorer predictions, this time for Week 4. The Philadelphia Eagles are heading to Tampa Bay to face a bottom-10 rushing defense and he should be a red zone target, expect him to see the end zone at least once this week. 

Despite the Jalen Hurts tush push option, Barkley is still getting 60% of the red-zone rushing opportunities to this point. Barkley also leads running backs with 9 rushes of 10+ yards — showing he can strike from distance.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr.: Rush+Rec TD Scorer (Demon Pick)

Date: Sunday, September 29, 2024

Time: 4:05 p.m. ET Kickoff

Location: State Farm Stadium, Glendale, Az.

TV: FOX, NFL+, YouTube TV

I’ve been hesitant to take Marvin Harrison Jr. as a touchdown scorer for the past few weeks. That said, he has emerged as Kyler Murray’s top target in the last two weeks. 

Now, this week he takes on the Commanders, one of the worst passing defenses in the league, so I just have to, right? 

The Commanders have already allowed nine touchdown passes this season, and Harrison has looked like the star he was predicted to be with nine catches and three touchdowns in the past two weeks. He’s also averaging nine targets in those two games, with an average depth of target over 19 yards.

Harrison is the number one option on the Cardinals, of course, so it will be a tough afternoon for the Commanders secondary. Expect to see him celebrating in the end zone this week against the Commanders.

Ravens RB Derrick Henry: Rush+Rec TD Scorer (Goblin Pick)

Date: Sunday, September 29, 2024

Time: 8:20 p.m. ET Kickoff

Location: M&T Bank Stadium, Tampa Bay, Fl.

TV: NBC, NFL+, YouTube TV

This week, the Ravens face a Bills defense that hasn’t been great at stopping the run. Their rush defense is 27th in Expected Points Added (EPA). They’ve been able to siphon to the pass game by getting leads on teams and forcing them to try for chunk pass plays, but in a close game, the Ravens should commit to the run.

This is good for the Ravens and Henry, as they will likely rely on their run game with him and QB Lamar Jackson and expose their defensive vulnerabilities.

Henry has scored in each game this season, and has been the NFL’s leading red-zone scorer amongst running backs the past two seasons. 

Jackson and Henry have mostly split carries in the red zone, however Henry has the edge by just a few carries, including all of the carries inside the five. Henry has also scored three touchdowns versus Jackson’s one.

The fact he’s scored in every game this season is enough to make him one of the best touchdown scorer predictions for Week 4, especially in a soft rushing matchup.
