After a horrendous start to the year, the Cincinnati Bengals have a legitimate shot at making the playoffs, and it all starts with toppling the Denver Broncos, who hold the seventh and final spot in the AFC. The Broncos, however, aren’t likely to go quietly, as they can exploit a weak Bengals D.
There should be enough fireworks, as you’ll see in our favorite Broncos vs Bengals touchdown prop picks. Not surprisingly, we’re looking at a pair of dynamic wide receivers.

Broncos anytime touchdown pick
Courtland Sutton anytime touchdown
+125 at BetMGM
After scoring just two touchdowns across his first nine games, veteran Courtland Sutton has been a favorite target of Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix, especially down the stretch as they have six wins in their last nine games.
Sutton has four TDs over his last six games and hasn’t gone consecutive games without a TD reception before getting back on the board again in early November. He was shut out last week against the Chargers, though he did have five grabs for 50 yards.
He's scored at least one touchdown in eight of the Broncos' last 11 road games against AFC opponents.
Not only that, but the Bengals are a Bottom-5 team in NFL TD passes surrendered, with 26.
Bengals anytime touchdown pick
Tee Higgins anytime touchdown
+125 at BetMGM
Look if you want a better chance at a win, then laying money down on Chase Brown (-200) and Ja’Marr Chase (-160) are your best bets.
However, if you want a win and some juice, a slight move down the Cincinnati Bengals roster has you at Tee Higgins.
Cincy’s 1B receiver doesn’t have the same output as Chase, who is having an all-pro type of season, but Higgins does have five TD grabs in his last six games.
The Broncos are a Top-4 scoring defense, but are just middle of the pack defending the pass, allowing 219.8 yards per game.
They do have one of the top cover men in the league, though, in Pat Surtain, and it would be wise to have him following Chase all over the field.
That should leave Higgins to feast on a secondary that has allowed 19 touchdown passes this season.
