| NFL | (109) Seattle Seahawks at (110) New England Patriots: Kenneth Walker III First Touchdown Scorer | 10:00pm EST - Feb 8/2026 |
The PLAY: Kenneth Walker III First Touchdown Scorer Yes 0.0 (380)
As I post this, Kenneth Walker is -190 on the "anytime touchdown scorer" option and +380 on the "first player to score a touchdown" prop. Of course, the former has the greater likelihood of cashing. However, the latter may offer the better value. If the Hawks score the first TD, Walker has a great shot of being the player that gets it. He did so against the Rams. If looking for a big underdog with a solid shot, this one fits the bill.
Last year's defending football champion Ben Burns has the #1 NFL record again this season ... he's a perfect 8-0 since Christmas.
| Sport | Game Selection | Game Time |
|---|---|---|
| NHL | (41) Buffalo Sabres at (42) Toronto Maple Leafs: Moneyline | 7:07pm EST - Jan 27/2026 |
The PLAY: Toronto Maple Leafs -112
TORONTO. The Sabres come in as the much hotter team. However, the Maple Leafs' home record is still stronger than the Sabres road record. The Sabres haven't won here since 2023. Buffalo coach Lindy Ruf knows the Leafs are going to be tough: “We know that it’s desperation time for them. We can’t look at their record or look at their recent games and say, ‘Boy, it’s going to be an easier game.’ We know that this is going to be in their building, it’s the tail end of a home stand for them ..." Look for the "desperate" Leafs to dig deep and get it done.
To nobody's surprise, last season's defending football champion Ben Burns is #1 in the NFL this season. He's 100% perfect in the playoffs and his 9th straight NFL winner is locked and loaded for the Super Bowl.
