First Touchdown Scorer Predictions for Sunday Night Football Week 15

The Green Bay Packers look to improve their playoff standings this week against the top team in the NFC West when they visit the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football. Will the Seahawks be able to hold on to their division lead?

Sunday’s action concludes with an 8:20 p.m. ET from Lumen Field in Seattle (NBC).

My first touchdown scorer predictions for Sunday Night Football look to two players that have excelled at finding the end zone for their team this season.

Green Bay has accumulated the eighth-most touchdowns this season, crossing the goal line 40 times. The Packers have logged the first touchdown in 9 of their 13 games this year.

Seattle sits in 11th place with 35 total touchdowns this season. They have been the first to complete a six-point play in six games so far.   

Our NFL Week 15 predictions have already dug into our Packers vs. Seahawks prediction, so let's have a little fun with some touchdown plays.

Packers first touchdown scorer prediction: Jayden Reed, WR ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: | Implied probability: 7.69%

Reed has been the go-to receiver in Green Bay this season, racking up the most targets (59), receptions (44), and receiving yards (693). He’s found the end zone seven times this year. Three of them have counted as the first touchdown of the game.

Packers running back Josh Jacobs (+450) was also in consideration as he leads the team with 12 total touchdowns. However, Reed is a much better play here, considering the Seahawks have not allowed a back to rush for a touchdown in their last five games.

The second-year wideout has been the most productive Green Bay wide receiver in the red zone this year, catching 77.8% of his targets and crossing the goal line five times from inside the 20-yard line.   

Since running backs have had almost no success finding the end zone against the Seahawks lately, I am much more comfortable taking Reed to score first at more favorable odds to you turning your $10 investment into a $120 profit.

Seahawks first touchdown scorer prediction: Zach Charbonnet, RB ⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: | Implied probability: 14.29%

More than half of the Seahawks’ 30 offensive touchdowns have been scored via the ground game. Kenneth Walker III and Charbonnet have factored equally to that total, each contributing seven touchdowns to the cause.  

Charbonnet is coming off of a career performance last week in which he rushed for 134 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries against the Arizona Cardinals. That volume could be replicated this week as Walker is doubtful to suit up for this game.

My confidence level drops not just on Charbonnet but any Seattle player here. Only the Detroit Lions, the Minnesota Vikings, and the Philadelphia Eagles have beaten the Packers to the end zone this season. 

It will be a tough task, but should he beat the odds, Charbonnet will bring back a $60 profit on your $10 wager.
