Christian McCaffrey prop bets for NFL Divisional round

McCaffrey has been his usual dominant self with San Francisco. He continues to get work in both the rushing and receiving aspects of their offense. McCaffrey showed off what he can do in the Wild Card round against the Seahawks. He finished with 15 carries for 119 yards and added two receptions for 17 yards and a touchdown. CMC has had at least 107 total yards in four of his last six games.

While the running back has been heavily involved, it doesn't automatically mean he has lit up the reception totals. He tends to alternate games. McCaffrey has had fewer than five receptions in five of his last eight games. Even if he sees a few targets in the passing game, he should stay under the reception line.

McCaffrey has about as much potential as any running back to break off a big run at any time. Even in games that he hasn't totaled a ton of yards, he seems to break off a big run every game. CMC has at least a 16-yard run in six of his last seven games.
