The reigning Super Bowl champions, the Philadelphia Eagles, make the long journey to the West Coast to take on the Los Angeles Rams in the Week 14 Monday Night Football (MNF) encounter.
While the Eagles are in a good spot with an 8-4 record and the current number 3 seed in the NFC, the Chargers are currently also 8-4, but hold the number 6 seed in the AFC. A win for the Eagles will enable them to increase the distance between themselves and the Cowboys in the NFC East, whereas a win for the Chargers will keep them close to the Broncos in the AFC West.

Here are the players with the best odds to score the first touchdown in the Chargers vs Eagles Monday Night Football game (Sourced from FanDuel).
| Player | Team | First TD Scorer Odds |
| Saquon Barkley | Philadelphia Eagles | +550 |

The 2024 NFL Offensive Player of the Year has not had nearly as promising a 2025 NFL season as he had last year. In fact, Barkley, despite being a threat on the ground and in the air, has just a total of 6 touchdowns this season. Nevertheless, Barkley is always a threat to score with his powerful running and excellent vision.
Eagles’ quarterback Jalen Hurts is always a contender for scoring the first touchdown of a game due to his ability to run with the ball. As a dual-threat signal caller, Hurts has plenty of rushing touchdowns throughout his 6-year career in the NFL. This season, Hurts has 8 touchdowns from 12 games. He has also scored multiple touchdowns with Philly’s special ‘Tush Push’ play.
A.J. Brown is one of the two top receivers on the Eagles roster, alongside DaVonta Smith. Brown’s strength and safe pair of hands make him a top candidate to score the opening touchdown of the game. The veteran receiver also has a knack for winning contested catches. Brown has 6 touchdown catches from 11 games.

Second-year receiver Ladd McConkey is one of the biggest threats to score touchdowns for the Chargers. This season, McConkey has snatched 5 touchdowns from 12 games, while he had 7 in his rookie season.
The Chargers’ other wide receiver, Quentin Johnston, has been having a much better season this time around. Through 11 games, Johnston has already grabbed 7 touchdowns. His size and height provide him with an advantage in coming down with balls thrown over his head.
Tight end Dallas Goedert would not be one of the primary players in line to score the first touchdown of the game, but he has shown great ability to be open in the endzone whenever the Eagles’ other options are covered. Goedert leads all pass-catchers on the Eagles’ roster with 7 receiving touchdowns this season.
