PHILADELPHIA – While the NFC Championship Game between the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers is set with just a 2.5-point spread in favor of the Eagles, there are plenty of game props to take advantage of.

Each of these game props that are listed on legal sports betting sites come with plus money including props for alternate point totals, alternate spreads in the first half, and field goal props.

Alternate Point Total

Under 44 Points

• Yes +110

Both of these defenses are some of the top in the league as both are top 10 in points allowed per game this season. The 49ers lead the league in points allowed with just 16.3 ppg while the Eagles aren’t far behind letting up 20.2 ppg.

Both teams also have similar records against point totals this season with the Eagles holding an 8-10 record against the under and the Niners at 9-10.

As for how each of them has done against a 44-point total this season, the 49ers have stayed under 10 times including playoff games while the Eagles have stayed under seven times. At 44 points, it is also just two points off of the 46-point total that is set.

The under is also trending heavily for both teams with the under going 7-0 in the Niners last seven playoff road games and 5-1 in their last six playoff games overall. The under is 4-1 in the Eagles last five games overall and 4-1 in their last five against an NFC opponent.

In the last four meetings between the two also, the under is 4-0

Alternate First Half Spread

• Eagles -3.5 +115

NFL odds are already favoring the Eagles in the first half with a 2.5-point spread in their direction so adding an extra point shouldn’t be too stressful and the plus odds on it makes it more enticing as well. There is currently a 4.1-point margin between the two teams’ offensive performances in the first half this season. The Eagles lead the league with 18 points per first half this season while San Francisco is at 13.9 points per first half.

On the defensive side of the ball, both teams are top in the league as well in points allowed in the first half at 8.4 for the Niners and 9.7 for the Eagles. However, in their last three games, the script has flipped completely with a 7.7-point margin between the two in points allowed per first half. The Eagles have taken off with just 4.3 points allowed in that span while the 49ers have taken a step back allowing 12 points per first half in those three games.

Backing the Eagles covering 3.5 points even further is that in their last seven games, they have gone 5-2 against a -3.5-point spread in the first half in those games.

Field Goal Prop

FG Scored In Every Quarter

• Yes +500

Jake Elliott (PHI) and Robbie Gould (SF) are two of the best kickers in the NFL so betting on there to be a field goal scored in each quarter can and should be taken despite being the longest odds on this list.

Both teams have been accurate this season in field goal attempts with the Eagles at 2.7 points per attempt and the Niners at 2.6 per attempt. In each of their last three games though, both Elliott and Gould have kicked field goals at 100% accuracy. Not only have they not missed a FG in their last three games, but also in those games, opposing kickers haven’t missed against them either.

It also helps that each of their long connections this season are 51+ yards.

Something else to keep in mind is that their red zone offenses and defenses show that they kick field goals inside the 20 more often than not. In Philly’s last three games, they are only scoring a TD on 50% of their redzone trips. San Francisco is only scoring a TD in the red zone on 52.7% of their RZ drives on the season meaning they also settle for field goals in that range.

Both teams are also averaging 3+ points per quarter this season.
