Bears vs 49ers Anytime Touchdown Picks
Jauan Jennings Anytime Touchdown (+140)
Jauan Jennings enters tonight's game with eight touchdowns on the season and is clearly operating as the 49ers' WR1.
I’ve been betting on Jennings almost every week, which has been great as he’s scored seven of his eight touchdowns over the last seven games. He's also scored a touchdown in four straight games.
The Bears' pass defense hasn’t been great this year with 29 passing TDs allowed — 16 of which have gone to WRs, which is bottom-3 in the NFL.
I’m going to keep betting Jennings TDs until he stops scoring and I don’t see that happening tonight.
Pick: Jauan Jennings Anytime Touchdown (+140; bet365)
Olamide Zaccheaus Anytime Touchdown (+400)
Olamide Zaccheaus has only two touchdowns this season, but this Week 17 matchup against the 49ers sets up favorably for him to find the end zone.
San Francisco's pass defense has struggled, allowing 26 passing touchdowns, with roughly half coming from the slot.
The 49ers play zone coverage at the fifth-highest rate in the NFL, and Zaccheaus, who lines up in the slot more than any other Bears wide receiver, consistently sees a higher target share against zone looks.
At +400 odds, he offers excellent value as a potential breakout scorer in a vulnerable secondary.
Pick: Olamide Zaccheaus Anytime Touchdown (+400; BetMGM)
