Puka Nacua will look to build off back-to-back solid performances when his Los Angeles Rams take on the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Eagles have one of the best pass defenses in football, which makes it more challenging to select the best Nacua picks and predictions.

The latest Sunday Night Football odds have the Eagles favored by three for Sunday’s 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC/Peacock) game at SoFi Stadium.

Nacua has only played three full games this season, so it’s hard to know exactly what to expect from him. He has just one touchdown, with 28 catches for 373 yards.

The below picks are part of our SNF coverage, which includes the Eagles vs. Rams prediction and the Eagles vs. Rams SNF prop bets

Puka Nacua touchdown pick vs. Eagles 

Puka Nacua anytime touchdown (+160) ⭐⭐

If you're interested in a Nacua touchdown prop, this is the only way to go. His touchdown last week against the New England Patriots was his first of the season. Even last season, during his breakout rookie campaign, Nacua only scored six touchdowns.

The Eagles are allowing just 0.9 passing touchdowns per game. They allowed one last week, the only passing touchdown they’ve allowed in the last three games. Matthew Stafford has thrown multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games, but Nacua hasn’t generally benefited from those targets.

Since taking Nacua to score a touchdown is a bit of a dart throw, getting the best price is key. Right now, BetMGM and FanDuel are offering +160, while DraftKings has the worst price of +140.

Best odds: +160 via BetMGM | Implied probability: 38.46%

Puka Nacua Over 6.5 receptions (+115) ⭐⭐⭐

Nacua has appeared in five games this season, but he’s only finished three of those contests. Every game he’s played from start to finish has seen him catch at least seven passes.

The Eagles are allowing just 19.5 completions per game, ranking ninth in the NFL. However, Stafford has completed at least 25 passes in three of his last four games, as he’s been on fire while helping the Rams win close games.

Nacua has been targeted at least nine times in every complete game he’s played, and he was targeted 14 times two weeks ago against the Miami Dolphins. These quality targets are resulting in receptions, so I’m willing to take this number at 6.5 for +115 rather than 5.5 for the -156 FanDuel is offering.

A winning $10 bet will yield an $11.50 profit. 

Best odds: +115 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 46.51%

Puka Nacua longest reception Under 23.5 yards (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is the best play of the week for Nacua. He’s averaging 13.3 yards per catch this season, but he only has two catches of more than 23 yards. Both of those receptions came last week against the Patriots.

While the Patriots rank 25th in the NFL, allowing 10.8 yards per completion, the Eagles rank second. They’re allowing just 8.9 yards per completion; over their last three games, they’re allowing just 6.8.

Since Nacua has only eclipsed this number once, I don’t expect him to rack up any big plays against one of the best pass defenses in football.

Four of our five best NFL prop betting sites have this total set at 23.5. The only one that doesn’t is FanDuel. FanDuel has the price set at -122 for Under 24.5. While that’s fair, I’ll take the better price for one less yard in a matchup where this may not be close.

Best odds: -110 via BetMGM | Implied probability: 52.38%
