The Denver Broncos visit the Los Angeles Chargers Thursday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif. with second place in the AFC West on the line. I offer my best anytime touchdown scorer predictions for Thursday Night Football with the action kicking off at 8:15 p.m. ET on Prime Video.

Los Angeles is a 2.5-point favorite by the Thursday Night Football odds but our Mike Spector likes the hosts to cover the shrinking spread with his Broncos vs. Chargers prediction.

Chargers rookie receiver Ladd McConkey is the most likely player to find the end zone tonight, per the anytime touchdown scorer odds, but I'm searching for better value bets for each side.

The rookie first-rounder, who has recently slipped further back in the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds, has ran for four touchdowns this season but none since Week 9.

He ran six times for 61 yards - his second-highest single-game total of the season - against the Bolts in Week 6. I like him to replicate that success and break through the goal line against an L.A. defense that has allowed three rushing scores and 322 ground yards to QBs through 15 weeks.

FanDuel has the best odds of our NFL prop betting sites, with DraftKings setting the market low at +260.

Chargers anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Kimani Vidal, RB ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: +280 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 26.32%

On the surface, the Broncos' defense has been strong against running backs. The unit has allowed just five touchdowns on the ground on a 3.84 yards per carry average to the position.

But, Denver has also conceded five receiving touchdowns to opposing running backs on a 6.29 yards per target average and an 83.1% catch rate.

That has me targeting Vidal. The rookie has stepped up in place of the injured J.K. Dobbins and a relatively ineffective Gus Edwards. He played a team-high 67% of the snaps last week but finished with just five touches for 22 yards.

The highlight of his rookie season was in Week 6 against the Broncos - his first active game in the NFL - when he scored a receiving touchdown while catching both of his targets for 40 yards. Let's run it back at home in this high-stakes rematch.
