Daniel Collins' (SPJ) (15-6) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Defensive or Special Teams TD (+200)
I have never been big Super Bowl bettor so here is a ride for the fun in the last game of the season. Both of these defenses will be looking to force turnovers and maybe one of them goes back for a score.
Or we get the opening kickoff run back, a la Devin Hester.
Should be a hell of a game. Let's have some fun!
Chef T's (11-10) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
The Offensive Player of the Year looks to be huge in the Super Bowl
Jaxon Smith-Njigba Anytime Touchdown (+125)
Jaxon Smith-Njigba anytime TD vs the Patriots is my favorite angle because Seattle's offense runs through him and he's been their top target and a real red-zone finisher.
If New England keeps the game tight, that just means more designed looks and inside-breaking routes for JSN near the goal line.
Nate Hornung's (11-10) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Sam Darnold SB MVP (+125)
I was actually able to snag this at +280 during the NFC Championship, but this is the way to back the Seahawks if you don't want to lay the points. The Super Bowl MVP has come from the winning team every single year but once, and 12 of the last 16 have been the quarterback of whichever squad lifts the Lombardi.
It's incredibly hard for a non-QB to win the award, especially considering the entire success of the offense runs through one man. Ultimately, I see the Seahawks getting the job done, and backing Darnold to be the Super Bowl MVP essentially gives you Seattle's ML at plus money (although they do have a SB MVP winning wide out on their roster).
Colby Marchio's (10-11) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Second half highest scoring half (-110)
It brings great excitement to run back the highest-scoring half prop. I tested it during the College Football National Championship, and it cashed with ease, as only 11 second-half points were needed after a 10-point first half. The defenses showed up early, then both teams made halftime adjustments that opened up the offenses. I expect that same script to play out in Super Bowl 60.
The concerns around New England's playoff path are valid. While they knocked off Houston and Denver, those wins came with help, including an uncharacteristically poor performance from C.J. Stroud and a Jarrett Stidham start due to injury. I don't expect the Patriots to fall flat, but a slow start is likely.
Seattle represents the most complete team New England has faced. The Seahawks thrive early defensively and score efficiently after the break. Get through the nerves in the first 30 minutes, then let it rip in the second half.
John Hyslop's (10-11) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Jake Bobo 10+ Receiving Yards (+280)
We need to get a little loose since this is the last time we're betting on a football game this season. Taking Jake Bobo to get 10+ receiving yards is about as loose as a person can get. I checked. The thing is, he's done this in each of his last two games. Hell, last game he caught a touchdown pass. All we need is one little seam route, and we're rich. Feels easy.
Varun Sharma's (15-5-1) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Mack Hollins o24.5 Receiving Yards (-110)
Mack Hollins made his return to the field last week and despite seeing just 2 targets, he reeled in both for 51 yards in the frigid temperatures of Denver, Colorado. Hollins has also cleared this line in 9 of his L11 games, averaging 5.3 targets and 50.8 receiving yards per game.
Hollins and Maye have developed a connection that's been a ton of fun to watch and one that usually includes use of the deep ball. He's seeing an average depth of target of 13.3 yards/target, he hasn't dropped a single ball this season and he's getting a majority of his snaps out wide.
Maye finished the year top-10 in deep throw rate and Hollins sits second on the team in targets of 20+ yards. The Seahawks are giving up nearly 70% of their receiving production to outside wide receivers this year and it's why this line just feels a little low.
Brad Blakemore's (14-7) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
SEA ML + Walker 60 yards -120
We've seen the running game be used heavily in Super Bowl past, as games tend to lean on the conservative side. And without Charbonnet it's clear who Seattle will hammer. Stapling this with the Hawks money line as the Patriots Cinderella run is coming to an end.
Danny Burke's (12-9) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Kenneth Walker Over 20.5 Rec Yards (-114)
Walker is becoming the best version of himself with this increased workload and we're seeing a direct correlation of that occurring in his receiving efforts. Darnold will look to check down to Walker often enough to get him over 20.5 receiving yards
Kate Constable's (10-11) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Seattle QB Sam Darnold Over 19.5 Completions (-115)
Sam Darnold is going to have the ball in his hands plenty on Sunday, partly by design and partly out of necessity. New England's run defense is legit, ranking top 10 across almost every major metric and allowing just 3.1 yards per carry. The Patriots' pass defense is the more vulnerable side of the unit. They've recently faced a string of underwhelming quarterbacks, such as Jarrett Stidham, yet still rank just 15th in dropback success rate. Darnold has been solid throughout the postseason, completing 25 of 36 passes for 346 yards in the NFC Championship against the Rams. He's also hit 20-plus completions in five of his last seven games. Add in the fact that New England plays a heavy dose of man coverage and Darnold ranks third in the league in completion percentage against it.
Adam Kaufman's (15-6) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Can Drake Maye guide the Patriots to a Super Bowl win in just his second season?
Patriots ML (+125)
What'd you expect?
We all we got. We all we need.
Tristan Vieira's (14-7) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Patriots +4.5 (-115)
Being from the Boston area it would be a crime for me to pick any other play this week. New regime , same winning ways, this is title town baby and the boys will bring it home!
Sukh Brar's (11-10) Super Bowl Sunday Best Bet
Seahawks -4.5 (-115)
One last ride.
Enjoy Super Bowl Sunday!
