The Los Angeles Rams take on the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship on Sunday night.
While superstar receivers Puka Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba will grab headlines, my Rams vs. Seahawks anytime touchdown picks are targeting their lesser-known teammates on January 25.

Rams anytime touchdown pick
Colby Parkinson (+320 at FanDuel)
A trio of Los Angeles Rams — Puka Nacua (+115), Kyren Williams (+120), and Davante Adams (+125) — tops the team’s anytime touchdown props, but none offer the same value as tight end Colby Parkinson at +320.
Adams hasn’t scored in his last four games, as defenses have keyed in on his goal-line routes. Williams has reached the end zone just once in the past five weeks, while Nacua has crossed it in five of his last 10 games.
Colby Parkinson has crossed the goal line in seven of his last 11 contests, has seen heavy targeting over the past month, and he's set to face a Seattle Seahawks defense that allows the fifth-most receptions to opposing tight ends.
Seahawks anytime touchdown pick
Cooper Kupp (+300 at FanDuel)
I bet Cooper Kupp at +310 to score a touchdown in the divisional round against the 49ers. While it didn’t hit, Kupp still led Seattle with five receptions for 60 yards in the 41-6 win.
The veteran wideout had 12 red-zone targets in the regular season, with eight of them coming in the final six weeks after Tory Horton’s season-ending injury. Although Kupp was targeted just once in the red zone last week, running back Kenneth Walker III carried the scoring with three TDs.
The Rams allowed only six rushing TDs all season — the third-fewest in the league — but ranked 19th in passing touchdowns allowed (26). With DBs focused on Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Kupp could draw softer coverage and see another red-zone opportunity.
