Zach Ertz +290
Commanders vs Eagles Same Game Parlay

Zach Ertz continues to be tragically underpriced as an anytime touchdown scorer. Still, bettors can use that to their advantage on Sunday.

The Commanders' tight end has been a scoring machine. Over his last four games, Ertz has totaled four scores while finding the endzone in all but one of those contests. His scoring surge is propped up with solid usage metrics, with Ertz soaking 21 targets over those four games.

This price doesn't reflect Ertz's scoring potential, so we're including him as one of our preferred betting options in Sunday's NFC Championship tilt.
Jayden Daniels +210
Anytime Touchdown Picks: Bills | Chiefs | Eagles

There's no easy way to score on the Philadelphia Eagles. Thankfully, the Washington Commanders have many scoring options they can turn to as they look to pull off one more upset en route to the Super Bowl.

Of course, the Commanders wouldn't be in the NFC Championship Game without their fearless leader under center. Jayden Daniels has put the team on his back, leading the Commanders to two upset victories in his first two playoff games. We're counting on Daniels to lead them again in finding the endzone at Lincoln Financial Field.

Washington's quarterback may have been held scoreless in six straight games, but he's poised to end that drought in Philadelphia. Daniels has 13 or more carries in three of his last four, totaling 241 yards over that stretch. He'll have to use his legs if the Commanders hope to have any chance. That includes running it into the endzone.

Spread: Eagles -6.5 | Moneyline: Eagles -290 | Commanders +235 | Total: 47.5
Dyami Brown +320
Top Player Props: Commanders | Eagles | Bills | Chiefs | Travis Kelce

We've seen complementary pass-catchers shine at different times for Washington this season. We predict Dyami Brown will shine in the NFC Championship.

Brown has been operating on another level throughout the playoffs. The fourth-year pro has been targeted 13 times over the last couple of games, hauling in 11 of those passes for 187 yards. While he has yet to score, that workload bodes well for anyone looking to record a touchdown.

Any safety help will likely be dedicated to Terry McLaurin, which should afford Brown more room to operate. At the current price, he is a top-value pick to record a touchdown.
Olamide Zaccheaus +490

Dyami Brown isn't the only complementary receiver with an undeserving price tag in the touchdown market. Olamide Zaccheaus is another Commanders' wide receiver worth investing in.

A groin injury could be a limiting factor for Zaccheaus. However, that doesn't negate his late-season surge. Before his subdued performance in the Divisional Round, Zaccheaus was on the rise. The 27-year-old had been targeted 25 times across the previous four contests, grabbing 18 catches for 225 yards and three touchdowns.

Zaccheaus can get back to that production on Sunday. At nearly 5-1, he is an ideal longshot candidate to record a touchdown.
Austin Ekeler +320
Commanders vs Eagles NFC Championship Game Predictions & Best Bets

Austin Ekeler fit in just fine in his first season in the nation's capital. The former undrafted free agent has served as a solid backup option to Brian Robinson Jr., but Ekeler has eaten into that workload over the past few weeks. He'll have more opportunities to try and break free against the Eagles.

It's been the case throughout his career, but Ekeler's elusiveness makes him a big play candidate every time he's carrying the football. We saw it against the Detroit Lions last week, with 35 of Ekeler's 47 rushing yards coming on one carry. That's without considering Ekeler's added value in the passing game. The Commanders pass-catching back has accumulated 141 all-purpose yards through two playoff contests.

Other bettors may have honed in on Robinson Jr., but our preferred option is backing Ekeler as an anytime touchdown scorer.
