3 Best Prop Bets for Cardinals vs 49ers: Zach Ertz Will Have Massive Game for Arizona
The Arizona Cardinals hit the road to take on the San Francisco 49ers for the second time this season in NFL Week 9 action.
Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins have yet to be officially ruled out for the game, but reports indicate the team doesn’t expect them to be available by kick-off.
The Cardinals traveled both Murray and DeAndre Hopkins to San Francisco, but aren't expecting either to play. The staff's under the impression both will be out. https://t.co/uXcOm29MZf

With that being said, there are some fantastic betting opportunities in the game, especially when it comes to player props. Here are my top three favorite player props for this NFC West showdown.
All odds listed are via WynnBET Sportsbook.
Best Prop Bets for Cardinals vs. 49ers
- Elijah Mitchell OVER 65.5 Rushing Yards -110
- Kyle Juszczyk Anytime TD +400
- Zach Ertz OVER 39.5 Receiving Yards -112
Elijah Mitchell OVER 65.5 Rushing Yards -110
Elijah Mitchell was listed as questionable this week, but it looks like he’s going to strap up for today’s game against the Cardinals. If he goes, he should be in for a big game. The Cardinals have struggled to stop the run all season, and I don’t expect that to change today.
Arizona ranks 31st in the NFL in opponent yards per carry at 4.9. Whichever running back is handed the rock against them today, they should be able to find success.

Kyle Juszczyk Anytime TD +400
Kyle Shanahan loves using Kyle Juszczyk in his offense, especially in the red zone. He’s only scored one touchdown so far this season, but based on his numbers in previous years, he’s due for some more. He scored six touchdowns last year, and now he’s been held without a score since Week 3 against the Packers.
If you want a longshot touchdown bet, Juszczyk presents some interesting value at +400.
Zach Ertz OVER 39.5 Receiving Yards -112
Zach Ertz has already surpassed this number in his two starts since being traded to the Cardinals. He hauled in three catches for 66 yards against the Texans in Week 7, and then tallied up 42 yards on four catches against the Packers in Week 8.
If Kyler Murray can’t go, look for Colt McCoy to rely on his big target early and often.
