The point spread for the NFC championship game between the Eagles and 49ers has finally settled itself. The Eagles opened at most sportsbooks as 1.5-point favorites, and now are up to 2.5- and 3-point favorites at some shops.

While that line settles, the prop markets are open.

Who is favored to score the first touchdown? How many yards will Jalen Hurts throw for? How many will he run for? Will Brock Purdy be held in check? Here’s an early look at some prop numbers from FanDuel as the market starts to open.

Odds as of 2:30 p.m. ET Monday.

Eagles vs. 49ers props: total passing yards

Hurts only needed to throw for 154 yards during the Eagles’ blowout win over the Giants Saturday night. But he threw for 246.73 yards per game during the regular season. The 49ers are the best defense he will face all season, however.

Purdy, meanwhile, has averaged 231.75 yards per game over his eight starts. He tossed for 214 yards in Sunday’s win over Dallas.
