The trade taking Christian McCaffrey from the Carolina Panthers to the 49ers took the San Francisco offense to a new level. Nobody in the NFL found the end zone more often during the 2023 season than McCaffrey. As is often the case with a potent running back, CMC prop bets are some of the most popular every week. The postseason is no different, and that’s why we have put together the best Christian McCaffrey prop bets for Super Bowl 58 on offer at UK betting sites.

CMC Super Bowl MVP - 9/2 at BetMGM

The quarterback is usually the clear favourite for the MVP award on each respective team. However, this year the gap between the 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and the next player at NFL betting sites isn’t that big. That’s because Purdy is perceived as a game manager and McCaffrey the main man in the offense.

There was no bigger indication of this than the betting for regular-season MVP, with McCaffrey ending the season a shorter price than Purdy. This shows how their value to the offense is seen in the eyes of those around the NFL. The level of performance CMC needs to achieve to wrestle the MVP award away from his QB is probably lower than what is normally required from a running back. 9/2 is a fair price on him taking home the award.

First Touchdown Scorer - 4/1 at Coral  

Nobody in the NFL is better than Christian McCaffrey at scoring touchdowns. He has 25 across the regular and postseason this year, despite missing the last two games of the regular season. His anytime touchdown odds reflect this and are probably a touch short for most punters having a one-off bet on the Super Bowl.

On the other hand, his first touchdown scorer odds could be a bit more generous. 4/1 for easily the most likely touchdown scorer on either team being the first one to find the end zone could get your night off to a great start.

First Team Touchdown Scorer - 2/1 at Ladbrokes

An issue people have with backing a first touchdown scorer on an NFL game is that your bet could be gone before the 49ers offense has touched the ball. If you want to guard against that, take CMC as first the 49ers team touchdown scorer. In fact, McCaffrey has scored the first touchdown for the 49ers on eight occasions this season, and this looks like one CMC prop bet well worth backing.

Christian McCaffrey Over 34.5 Receiving Yards - 23/25 at BetUK

The Chiefs pass defense has been one of the best in the NFL this season, and they are adept at blitzing the QB. Because of this, we could see the need for Purdy to either get the ball out quickly or utilize the screen game. Either way, McCaffrey should see the ball thrown his way as a result and just one reception in open space could be enough for him to hit the over here.

Over 50 Rushing Yards, Over 50 Receiving Yards & To Score a TD - 7/2 at bet365

If you fancy the all-purpose back to have an all-purpose game, this could be the Christian McCaffrey prop bet for you. Whether its rushing or receiving CMC is always involved, plus you know he’s going to get those red-zone touches needed for a touchdown. All three parts of this bet look achievable, and it's available as a price boost at bet365 .

Christian McCaffrey Betting Tips

McCaffrey has found the end zone on a regular basis since joining from the Panthers, and there is no real reason this won’t continue in the Super Bowl. His anytime touchdown odds are slightly short, so we will take him to be the first 49ers touchdown scorer instead. CMC has managed this feat on eight out of his 17 starts this season. Back this at a generous 2/1 with Ladbrokes .
