NFC Championship Game player props: Niners-Rams bets

The second game of the weekend will be between the 49ers and Rams, the third such contest between the NFC West rivals this year.

We covered this game in regard to betting on a winner earlier this week, so check out our pick here. 

Prop angles seem a bit less plentiful in this game compared to Chiefs-Bengals, but there's still one for each team that deserves our attention.

Cooper Kupp longest reception over 28.5 yards (-115 DraftKings)

This bet is based on consistent production and performance against his opponent.

Long play props have been a lot of fun to bet on this year, especially if you're watching the game. They can't more fun when they win, which has certainly been the case for Cooper Kupp.

Kupp has recorded a catch of 29-plus yards in 15 of 19 games this season, good for a 79% hit rate.

He makes game-changing plays every week, like he did to help beat the Buccaneers last week, and Stafford has shown to let it fly every game.

In two games against San Francisco, Kupp has a long catch of 29 and 46 yards, so we'll bet on him to do it again.

Deebo Samuel TD (-105 FanDuel)

Samuel is truly a do-it-all offensive weapon for the 49ers, and if you like betting touchdowns, he feels like the best option on this team.

Samuel leads the team in red-zone usage, with 28 looks this season. He has at least one red-zone target or carry in every game but three this season. I love that consistent volume.

Samuel's also had success against the Rams, scoring three times in the two previous games this year. I'll bet on his continued success against this Los Angeles defense, at reasonable -105 odds.
