Will there ever be an NFL Sunday without a touchdown scored?

There were 11,680 points scored in the NFL regular season last year, which is about 45.6 points per game. We have gotten used to pass-happy offenses going up and down the field, scoring almost at will. It’s rare to see a quarter of NFL football go by without a touchdown, much less a full game. The thought of an entire Sunday passing without a touchdown is ridiculous. And just imagine the angst from fantasy football players.

There was only one game in the NFL last season in which neither team scored a touchdown. The San Francisco 49ers beat Washington 9-0 on three field goals in Week 7. While it’s mathematically possible we see a Sunday without any touchdowns across the NFL, it’s highly unlikely. And new users at BetMGM will cash in once a touchdown is scored.

BetMGM is offering a special promo for Sunday’s NFL games as the season kicks off. New customers in NJ, WV, IN, or CO, who bet $1 on the moneyline on any team will win $100 in free bets if there is a touchdown scored anywhere in the league on Sunday.*

Click the link, sign up for your new BetMGM account, deposit at least $10 via your preferred method and then bet $1 on the moneyline for any team to win straight up. You don’t need to win the moneyline bet to be eligible for the $100 in free bets.

Then root for one touchdown by any team.

There were only 33 instances all season of either team not scoring a touchdown in any NFL game last season. Every game this week has an over/under point total of at least 39.5 at BetMGM. The highest total on Sunday is 51.5 for the night game between the Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Rams, just in case the first 12 games on Sunday don’t produce one touchdown.

If you don't feel like betting on football this weekend, new users who create a BetMGM account can get a $25 registration bonus (no deposit required) and a 100% deposit match up to $1,000 with their first deposit.**
