49ers-Eagles Anytime Touchdown Bet: Are A.J. Brown’s Odds Too Long?

The Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers will battle for a shot at the Super Bowl on Sunday afternoon. The Eagles, led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, haven’t been here since the Carson Wentz and Nick Foles era. The 49ers got this far just last year — but they have also made a change at quarterback. That said, Philadelphia wide receiver A.J. Brown makes for the best 49ers-Eagles anytime touchdown scorer bet with off-market odds of +170 at FanDuel Sportsbook. Bettors should always visit the OddsShopper tool to find the best odds on the market.

49ers-Eagles Anytime Touchdown Bet: A.J. Brown

A.J. Brown Anytime Touchdown Scorer: +170

The San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles both gave up 16 touchdowns to wide receivers in the regular season. While that makes wideouts on both teams sharp targets on the anytime touchdown scorer markets, A.J. Brown offers the most value for a number of reasons, especially because he fits the mold of wide receivers who have scored against the 49ers most recently.

Big-bodied boundary receivers have challenged the 49ers all season. DK Metcalf caught 10 passes for 136 yards and two scores on Wild Card Weekend. A.J. Green reeled in three passes for 91 yards and a score the week before. Davante Adams nearly led the Raiders to a wild upset in Week 17 by catching seven passes for 153 yards and two scores.  Washington’s two boundary wideouts, Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson, racked up 10 catches for 153 yards in Week 16.

Brown has the requisite speed to score from outside the red zone, but he has also drawn the red-zone volume from Jalen Hurts to cash in a short-yardage throw. Brown led the Eagles in red-zone target share (34%) and target share from within the 10-yard line (40%). His 6-foot, 226-pound frame and 80th-percentile arm length give him an incredible advantage in short-yardage situations.

Backing A.J. Brown on anytime touchdown scorer markets also makes sense because of how terribly FanDuel Sportsbook has priced his line. Pinnacle, a sharp book, is charging +116. DraftKings has Brown at +120. Yet for whatever reason, FanDuel feels comfortable charging only +170 for Brown to score a touchdown. Bettors should head to FanDuel Sportsbook to lock in this number in advance of any line movement. New users at FanDuel can even secure $150 in bonus bets with a $5 wager!
