This First Half TNF Parlay Would Have Cashed For $71,953.32

• D.K. Metcalf being the first touchdown scorer came with +750 odds.
• Another longshot bet for TNF that hit was Kenyan Drake (+450) being the first Arizona Cardinals touchdown scorer.

SEATTLE – With a Thursday Night Football matchup that set the NFC West leaders against each other, the Seattle Seahawks hosted the Arizona Cardinals in Washington.

All was in control for Seattle, who opened the game with a very diversified 12-play drive that ended with a D.K. Metcalf touchdown. Being the first touchdown scorer (+750), NFL betting players also scored a longshot with +333 odds for Metcalf to be the first Seahawks touchdown scorer.

After the Cardinals responded with a three-and-out punt, the Seahawks seemed to want to erase the last matchup between the two from their memory.

Entering the game, the Seahawks were -3 on the spread but quickly jumped to -7.5 after their opening drive. However, pressure on Russell Wilson caused a fumble and a sack, giving the ball back to Arizona at +5.5 at legal sportsbooks halfway through the first quarter. Still, Arizona couldn’t progress the ball for the first 15 minutes, causing them to go into the second quarter down seven.

As the first half concluded, many of the Thursday Night prop bets cashed for NFL bettors. While many were taken as side wagers, those who parlayed a few together came out well ahead.
