The Chicago Bears and Washington Commanders get set to tangle in the second leg of our Week 6 Monday Night Football doubleheader on October 13.
Both defenses are thin in the secondary, and my Bears vs. Commanders anytime touchdown picks feature Rome Odunze and Deebo Samuel.
Read why in my NFL picks!
Bears anytime touchdown pick
Rome Odunze (+140 at bet365)
Rome Odunze is quickly becoming Caleb Williams’ most trusted red-zone option.
His chemistry with Williams improves weekly, and he leads the Chicago Bears in targets (35), receptions (20), and touchdowns (five).
The second-year wideout owns 30% of the Chicago Bears red-zone targets and 60% of looks inside the 10-yard line, which is usage that screams touchdown potential — especially with D.J. Moore ruled out.
The Washington Commanders' defense has allowed 1.6 passing touchdowns per game and continues to struggle defending fade routes and back-shoulder throws, both of which are Odunze's specialties.
Odunze has found the end zone in all five of Chicago’s games, and that streak has every reason to continue under the prime-time lights of Monday Night Football.

Commanders anytime touchdown pick
Deebo Samuel (+125 at bet365)
Deebo Samuel headlines Washington’s offense, especially with Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown sidelined.
He’s commanding 29% of the Commanders’ red-zone targets and 60% of throws inside the 10-yard line, solidifying his role as Jayden Daniels’ first read near paydirt.
Chicago’s defense has surrendered 2.5 passing touchdowns per game, setting the stage for Daniels and Samuel to keep rolling through the air.
Samuel’s versatility makes him even more dangerous; He’s rushed for one touchdown and caught three more, finding the end zone in three of his last four games.
With the Bears’ secondary struggling to contain anyone with a pulse, Deebo is a strong bet to score a touchdown.
