9 Minute ReadWhen Was the Last Time a Super Bowl Ended With No Touchdown Scored? Latest Odds for Anytime TD Scorer in 2026 Super Bowl
A Super Bowl with no touchdowns has never happened. Not once in 59 games.
The lowest-scoring Super Bowl in history was Super Bowl LIII in 2019, when the Patriots beat the Rams 13-3. That game featured one rushing touchdown from Sony Michel and six field goals. Boring as hell, but it still had a TD.
For Super Bowl LX between the Seahawks and Patriots to end with zero touchdowns, you'd need a game decided entirely by field goals and safeties. Possible? Sure. Likely? Not even close.
The over/under for this game now sits at 29.5 points. Even if the under hits, you're looking at a 9-6 slog decided entirely by field goals. Both teams averaged over 28 points per game during the regular season. Both have elite offensive weapons. Both quarterbacks can move the ball. Both teams also have elite defenses.
Here's a breakdown of the top six touchdown threats for Super Bowl LX and why betting on players to score makes infinitely more sense than banking on a scoreless game.

Top Touchdown Threats for Super Bowl LX
Player | Anytime TD Odds |
|---|---|
Kenneth Walker | +180 |
Jaxon Smith-Njigba | +400 |
Rhamondre Stevenson | +400 |
AJ Barner | +500 |
Cooper Kupp | +500 |
Stefon Diggs | +650 |
Kenneth Walker III (+180)
Walker has the shortest odds to score for a reason. With Zach Charbonnet done for the year, Seattle's backfield belongs to their workhorse. He exploded for 116 yards and three touchdowns in the Divisional Round, then scored again in the NFC Championship.
Three of Seattle's four playoff red-zone touchdowns belong to Walker. He's handled 19 carries in both playoff games. When the Seahawks get close, the ball goes to their primary weapon.
At +180, Walker is the safest bet to find the end zone. Seattle is favored by 4.5 points and averaged 28.4 points per game during the regular season (third-best in the NFL). They're scoring, and Walker is getting his.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba (+400)
JSN has been untouchable in the playoffs. Scored in both games, went off for 10 catches on 12 targets for 153 yards and a TD in the NFC Championship. Seattle's offense runs through their star receiver who led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards.
In the playoffs, Smith-Njigba commands a 36.2% target share. Darnold looks his way on nearly half of all plays. New England ranked 31st in DVOA against No. 1 wideouts during the regular season.
At +400, JSN offers better odds than Walker while maintaining elite scoring probability. The entire Seattle offense funnels through him. If there are multiple touchdowns in this game (and there will be), JSN has a legitimate shot at one of them.
Rhamondre Stevenson (+400)
Stevenson has the same odds as JSN despite playing for the underdog Patriots. That tells you everything about his role in New England's offense. He outsnapped TreVeyon Henderson 60-4 in the AFC Championship, playing 94% of snaps.
Stevenson had at least one rushing touchdown in each of New England's final three regular-season games. Computer models project him to score in 53% of simulations. He's New England's bell-cow back and goal-line hammer.
The Patriots averaged 28.8 points per game during the regular season (second-most in the NFL). They're not a defensive grind-it-out team anymore with Drake Maye under center. Stevenson at +400 is the best value on the board for New England exposure.

Hunter Henry (+500)
Henry led the Patriots with seven touchdown receptions and was targeted 22 times inside the 20 (sixth-most in the league). When Drake Maye gets close, the ball finds his tight end.
Seattle allowed eight of their last 10 touchdowns via the pass, including all three in the NFC title game. The Seahawks rank bottom-10 defending opposing tight ends. Henry has found the end zone in seven of 20 appearances this season.
At +500, Henry is a dart throw with legitimate upside. Tight ends are safety valves in crucial situations, and the chemistry between Henry and Maye has been building all season.
Stefon Diggs (+500)
Diggs has been heating up with 17 targets over his last three games. He scored a revenge touchdown against his former team Houston in the Divisional Round and remains a red-zone threat despite Seattle's elite cornerback depth.
He had 12 red-zone targets during the regular season. At +500, Diggs offers the same odds as Henry but with more explosive upside as a wide receiver who can break long plays.
If you're betting on the Patriots to score, Diggs at +500 is a reasonable flier on a veteran who shows up in big moments.
Drake Maye (+650)
Maye can score with his arm or his legs. He rushed for 66 yards in the Wild Card Round and has shown willingness to tuck it and run near the goal line. At +650, you're getting long odds on a mobile quarterback who accounts for touchdowns in multiple ways.
New England's offense runs through Maye. If the Patriots are going to score, he's either throwing it or running it himself. At +650, he's a longshot with dual-threat upside.
Has a Super Bowl Ever Ended Without a Touchdown?
Never, the three lowest-scoring Super Bowls in history:
- Super Bowl LIII (2019): Patriots 13, Rams 3 (1 TD)
- Super Bowl VII (1973): Dolphins 14, Redskins 7 (2 TDs)
- Super Bowl IX (1975): Steelers 16, Vikings 6 (2 TDs)
Even in the lowest-scoring Super Bowl ever, there was still a touchdown. The modern NFL is built around offense. Rule changes favor passing attacks. Defenses can't be as physical as they used to be. Scoring is up across the league.
A Super Bowl decided entirely by field goals would require both offenses to stall inside the 30-yard line repeatedly, both defenses to shut down red-zone execution completely, and zero big plays for 60 minutes. It's theoretically possible but has never happened in nearly six decades of Super Bowls.
Elite Offense vs. Elite Defense
Both teams averaged over 28 points per game during the regular season. Seattle's offense ranked seventh in total yards (351.4 per game) and third in scoring (28.4 points). New England ranked third in total offense (379.4 yards) and second in scoring (28.8 points).
These games haven't been defensive slugfests. These are two high-powered offenses with elite weapons. Walker and JSN for Seattle. Stevenson, Henry, and Maye for New England. The talent is there. The scoring will happen.
The real question isn't whether there will be a touchdown. It's which players will score them. Walker and JSN have the shortest odds because they're the highest-probability scorers. Stevenson, Henry, Diggs, and Maye offer longer odds with varying degrees of upside depending on game script and matchup.
A no-touchdown Super Bowl would be historic. It would also require ignoring 59 years of Super Bowl history and everything we know about these two offenses.
