Broncos RB Javonte Williams vs. Raiders
Time: 4:05 p.m. ET
TV: CBS
Broncos RB Javonte Williams made the touchdown scorer list in Week 8 and overperformed, bringing in two touchdowns against the Panthers to green out his projection.
This week he faces another team with a terrible defense making him one of the best touchdown scorer predictions in Week 12.
The Las Vegas Raiders have struggled to stop teams from scoring, making them the 29th-ranked scoring defense in the league, allowing about 28.5 points per game. They rank 26th in defensive success rate (46%), and 19th in rush defense success rate (40.2%).
The Broncos spread the ball out between Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Audric Estime, but Williams still leads the other in carries and seems to be the RB1, especially around the goal line. Williams should have a big week against an average defense, like he did last time he made the best touchdown scorer list.

Chiefs TE Travis Kelce vs. Panthers (Demon)
Time: 1 p.m. ET
TV: CBS
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce is another player who’s had a rollercoaster of a season so far, but still a threat to score touchdowns at any time. The Chiefs’ tight end started off slow, but is having a really spectacular stretch in the past month as he’s still the most reliable target for Patrick Mahomes.
He only has two touchdowns, but the good news is they’ve both come in the last four games. Kelce is averaging around eight catches for 56 yards per game through his last five games, playing significantly better than he did in the first five.
This week he faces one of the worst teams in the league, and the best team for a tight end to play. The Panthers have allowed the most touchdowns to tight ends in the league so far and allow the ninth-highest receiving yards to tight ends per game.
Touchdowns should come easy for the Chiefs and Kelce, easily making him one of the best touchdown scorer predictions. Don’t overthink this one.
Note: Demon picks add a payout boost to your lineup on PrizePicks, as they are more difficult projections to hit.

Panthers QB Bryce Young vs. Chiefs (Goblin)
Time: 1 p.m. ET
TV: CBS
Bryce Young’s season with the Panthers started extremely rough, with his poor play causing him to be benched after Week 2 in favor of Andy Dalton. He returned to the starting lineup in Week 8 and has looked much better, earning him a spot as one of the best touchdown scorer predictions this week.
Since becoming the Panthers QB1, he has thrown at least one touchdown in every game. He has four passing touchdowns in his last three games as starter after having zero in the first two and should continue his streak against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs defense is averaging at least one passing touchdown a game to quarterbacks and also allow quarterbacks the 13th most fantasy points in the league.
Young’s pass touchdown projection is available as a Goblin on PrizePicks, meaning it’s easier to win. Young and the Panthers likely won’t put up much fight against the Chiefs but Young should be able to pass for a touchdown this game.
