With the NFL playoffs continuing this Sunday, we have plenty of more opportunities to keep cashing in anytime touchdown winners! With a full season of information to digest we have abundant firepower to back up our anytime touchdown bets.

Will the 49ers make it seven straight wins and three straight in the 2021 season against the Rams in the NFC Championship game? Or will the home favorites get the job done and move on to the Super Bowl?
The Los Angeles Rams host the San Francisco 49ers at 6:30 pm ET in the NFC Championship game. SoFi Stadium in LA has a dome, so the weather is not a concern. Los Angeles is the favorite in what projects as the lower-scoring game of the weekend, though the 49ers swept the regular-season series. The 49ers dominated the Week 10 matchup 31-10 and then in Week 18 erased a 17-0 deficit en route to a 27-24 overtime win to reach these very playoffs.

NFC Championship Top Anytime TD Bets
Odell Beckham Jr. (+170)
The Rams were eighth in EPA per drive and sixth in touchdowns this season. A league-high 79% of those touchdowns have been passes. Opposite of Cooper Kupp, OBJ has established himself as the Rams' No. 2 wide receiver. In two games against the 49ers, Kupp had 240 receiving yards. There is a good chance Kupp will be double-teamed, which would give Beckham the chance to win his one-on-one coverage. Over the last two games, he is averaging 12.3 yards per reception. The 49ers allowed the fifth-most yards on passes thrown outside the numbers this season and that's right where Odell likes it. Stafford has thrown at least two touchdowns in 79% of his games. OBJ has scored six touchdowns over the last nine games! As a Giants fan, I'm happy for Odell. All this guy wants is to win. Here's to more highlight-reel catches and let's cash him here Sunday night!
Tyler Higbee (+240)
In the two regular-season matchups, San Francisco played zone on over 70% of coverage snaps. Higbee's involvement in the Rams offense over the last few weeks has been solid. San Francisco allowed the highest red zone completion percentage this season. Higbee has run routes on 53 out of 62 dropbacks this postseason and has seen six-plus targets in five of his last six games. Three of Higbee's five touchdowns this season came against these 49ers!
George Kittle (+220)
In nine games George Kittle is averaging 78.4 receiving yards per game against the Rams. He honestly has owned them since his rookie season. He's scored in five out of seven games against the Rams since 2018! My biggest concern here is that Jimmy Garoppolo hasn't thrown a touchdown yet in the playoffs but the 49ers should be forced to throw the ball more often this Sunday. The Rams tend to play defense with two high safeties to prevent big plays. They've been strong this year against the run. But the Rams are very vulnerable to short middle passes (29th in DVOA). The 49ers throw the most short middle passes in the NFL feeding right into our hands here with Kittle!
Brandon Aiyuk (+333)
Obviously, Jalen Ramsey holds up his end for the Rams secondary during any given week, but at the end of the day, the Rams fielded just the league’s 15th-best defense in PFF coverage grade and were the 20th-ranked group in yards per attempt allowed. Aiyuk is running the highest 49ers' average depth of route (ADOR) through the Divisional Round at 10.2 yards. Three yards more than any other 49er. The single-best defense in team grade against the run was the Rams this season. Deebo Samuel was banged up in the divisional round win over the Packers and although reports suggest he's good to go I think he's not 100 percent. Aiyuk was Jimmy Garoppolo's favorite target in the Wild Card game as well as the Week 18 win over the Rams, leading the 49ers in catches, targets, and receiving yards. The Rams were bottom four in both catches and yards to wide receivers this season. I can see Aiyuk with a quick catch and go that turns into six. Although Sunday marks three weeks since Jimmy G. has thrown a touchdown pass, I'm comfortable with snagging Aiyuk at these odds!
