Sunday Night Football features an interconference match-up between the Los Angeles Chargers (5-3) and the San Francisco 49ers (4-4). The total currently sits at 45.5 points, and the 49ers are favored by 7.5. Even though the Chargers have the better record, they are riddled with injuries, and the 49ers have been ascending since their trade for Christian McCaffrey. This article reviews the best same-game parlay for every NFL primetime game and analyzes the reasoning behind the bet. Here is the best Chargers-49ers parlay for Sunday night’s game.
Best Chargers-49ers Parlay: Week 10 SNF
This same-game parlay comes from FanDuel Sportsbook. OddsShopper is a useful tool to find bets with the highest win rate. This slip focuses on the two biggest offensive weapons for each team. Both Christian McCaffrey and Austin Ekeler are top five in the league in high-value touches, which means they get the most carries or targets inside the 10-yard line. This is a good resource to use for betting on anytime touchdowns.
Leg 1: Christian McCaffrey to Score 2+ Touchdowns (+300)
McCaffrey has only been with the 49ers for two games. The first week they eased him into the offense, but the second week he scored two touchdowns and threw for one more. Head coach Kyle Shanahan is very creative at utilizing a player’s talents. The potential for McCaffrey to score multiple touchdowns is live any game, but that is especially the case against this depleted Chargers defense.
Leg 2: Austin Ekeler to Score 2+ Touchdowns (+750)
Ekeler has scored two touchdowns in four of his last five games. Part of this is because the Chargers are so injured on offense and Ekeler is their only true remaining weapon. That will be the case again tonight, as receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are out again. The offense runs through Ekeler, which means so can the touchdowns. Getting this bet at +750 is great value.
Chargers-49ers Parlay Odds (+3076)
This slip is obviously risky, so bet responsibly. Also, feel free to water it down and bet anytime touchdown for both players instead.
