From the article

Nacua faces a 49ers defense that coughed up the 11th-most TDs through the air, and half of Nacua's scores last season came outside the red zone. Nick Bola is expected to play but remains limited in practice, and if he isn't 100%, I don't see the Niners' D-line putting much pressure on Matthew Stafford in the pocket after they recorded a league-low 20 sacks last season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Nacua's matchup vs. weak 49ers pass rush and Stafford's arm talent support TD upside.

Puka Nacua faces a 49ers defense that allowed the 11th-most passing touchdowns last season. Half of Nacua's scores last year came outside the red zone, and the 49ers' pass rush is expected to be limited with Nick Bosa expected to play but remaining limited in practice; the Niners recorded a league-low 20 sacks last season. This should give Matthew Stafford ample time to find his top receiver for six points. Nacua's anytime TD prop is priced at 40% probability.
