Super Bowl Bets


Recommended Posts

Roughly 26 million people are expected to bet the Super Bowl. They are expected to bet $6.8B.

 

With being said what are you guys betting? I’m thinking:

- SF first half

- KC 2nd half

- SF over rushing total

- KC over passing total

- National Anthem under 2:04

- A handful of secondary skill players (ie Watkins, Coleman, Samuel, Damian Williams, etc) for MVP

Serious question: what's the arbiter of the length of the National Anthem? I've run a prop bet pool the past few years and always wanted to add that, but I've limited the pool to things I could look up in your typical boxscore.

Sammy Watkins getting injured stepping off the bus is coming in at 1:5

60:1 to be the MVP...he has games where he goes off. He’s PHENOMENAL value at that

That’s the line I heard. It’s probably either Westgate or someone like that. You can probably just google it and see who set the line. The lines are pretty universal from the major players.

Maybe, just perhaps playing decoy all year will finally pay off. ? Seriously though, those are pretty solid odds!

I'm thinking $5k on San Fran

 

Are you telling the wife? 

 

I bought my $20 square, which will allow for my retirement. My wife however, will continue to do her thing out of necessity.

Yeah, I like those secondary type guys at those numbers. I’ll make smaller bets on it but for $10 or whatever I’ll bet a few skill guys at 50:1 and greater. You hope that you catch the guy that has 100+ yards and scores twice. Watkins, Coleman, Samuel, and Hardman are the types I’m going to look at. I don’t know all of the odds on them but it’s worth a few bucks.

  I got SF moneyline and the over. I am thinking Kittle or Samuel for MVP but have not made a play. I dont want to play prop bets that are just blind luck.

  I am not much of a gambler, an occasional lottery ticket and 10 to 20 bucks on Draftkings every weekend during NFL season. This year I took 1st place in 2 showdown (single game) tournaments so I am way up for the year and have house money to play with.

got 2 units on mahomes over 30 yards rushing for the game

5 units KC-1

and 1 unit on the over 54

  Mahomes over 30 rushing against that 9ers pass rush sounds like a pretty good bet. I have to look at the prop bets tomorrow.

Not a Super Bowl bet but I'm still kicking myself for not listening to this guy who suggested taking Lamar Jackson at 80 to 1 odds to win NFL MVP in August of last year.  He has the 49ers at +1 1/2 btw.

5 Long Shot Value Bets For The NFL MVP Award

1. Lamar Jackson

 

Jackson definitely qualifies as a long shot. If you act now, you can wager on him to take home the MVP Award at 80:1. That’s a solid long shot given just how easy it is to envision a scenario where he brings home the hardware.

 

The Ravens offense is trying to prove that not everyone in the NFL has to throw the ball frequently to be successful. They’re going to run the ball more than anyone else in the league. Jackson is going to get a ton of those carries from the quarterback position.

 

That reliance on the run game is going to make Baltimore dangerous via play action. That’s where Jackson will need to get a little bit of good luck to pad his stats.

 

Imagine a world in which the Ravens go 12-4, win the division and Jackson rushes for 1,000 yards and throws for another 3,000. That would at least get him in the MVP conversation. It’s not likely a likely outcome, but it’s a long way from impossible.

I've seen 2 minutes as the +/-

No one mentioned the over/under yet? I got it at 53.5. it's now 54.5. The over has to be a lock, no?

It's 2:04

 

Demi Lovato's last major sports anthem ran 2:12. Take the over

 

 

 

But is there a flyover to sync it to?

Think Garrapolo goes off, I don’t like the over on SF rushing. 
 

did place a small bet on side boob shot. Long running joke with my wife and people on her team that she wins so many deals cause she is an expert at showing side boob during demos !

I haven't looked at the sheet yet...was planning to do that today.  It's definitely fun to have action on some of the prop bets during the game.

 

Oh, and I already have 31 squares (27 unique combos) among 5 squares boards so far...and the party I'm going to will have another.  LOL

On the station casino app it’s currently:

deebo 27-1

sammy 50-1

coleman 65-1

hardman 75-1

 

When the odds came out i threw 10 on Bosa at 20-1 (it’s down to 15-1), 10 on Sherman 50-1 and 5 on brieda 80-1

I like that bet

 

I wouldn't take any KC player for MVP other than Mahomes. Problem with guys like Kelce, Hill and Watkins are that if they put up big numbers you know Mahomes is also going to have decent numbers at worst too and they are going to look for any reason they can to give the MVP to Mahomes. 

 

It would have to be some scenario where Mahomes passes for under 320 yards or so and half those yards go to one player AND all 2 or 3 TD's Mahomes throws goes to that same player. Mahomes cannot throw a TD to another player. Throw in at least maybe one INT for Mahomes too.

It's hard to believe this is true but if it is it's got to be one of the worst sports bets ever. I don't know what true odds are but the payout would certainly be over $1mm 

 

 

 

Must be nice to be able to throw money away like that. Maybe the guy thought he was wagering on the 49ers to WIN by exactly 5 points?

 

I got to get some prop bets in tonight for fun. Question is how much of my dwindling bank roll do i want to bet?

There’s just no value in Mahomes. He is +115, virtually even money. That’s a terrible bet. I’d much rather spread some money across Kittle 10:1, Damien Williams 25:1, Deebo 25:1, Kelce 16:1, Tyreke 16:1, Sammy 60:1, Hardman 55:1, Coleman 70:1 and Honey Badger 50:1. You put some $ on each on a sliding scale (higher the odds the less you spend) and hope to catch.

I think the best route here is to avoid Mahomes and KC offensive players besides RB.  If WR/TE's have a good day, Mahomes gets the MVP.  Go RB and defense on KC, and someone like Kittle or Coleman on SF.

I’ll probably skip Kelce and Tyreke. It was just an example. Sammy at 60:1 is too much value. If he has 7 for 125 and 2 TDs he will have a chance. Hardman is the Pro Bowl return man. If he busts one he could be the guy. At 50:1 it’s worth a few bucks as well. I don’t think either of those is likely but it’s worth a couple of $10 fliers.

Im in for under 54.5.  11 out of last 15 games have been under, under when spread is higher than 50 is 7-4, and I think the niners try to shorten the game and limit the amount of possessions.

 

I haven't made it to the book yet to see what props they have.  That will be this afternoon's adventure!

I like placing a bet on a SF skill player, but I’d never do the same with a KC skill player. The Chiefs spread the ball around too much, and if Hill, Watkins, Kelce have a big game, I’m thinking the MVP is going to Mahomes. 

 

Hardman could be an interesting play considering he returns kicks and can catch a bomb for a TD.  He could be the MVP if Mahomes has an average game against that 49ers defense.  You can get him at +6600 in some sports books.

Will you be refunding us if these lose? Because I’m betting my house on this because I trust you so much. ?

 

I kinda like the over 2.5 sacks for SF.  Also, Cousin Sal always does an insane bet and it’s Blake Bell, backup KC TE, first reception over 1.5 yards!!! And the Gatorade has to be red, right?

Ha ha, I will not be. I started this thread for advice. This Super Bowl is really confusing me. So far in the playoffs SF has come out fast, and KC slow. Then KC has gone off. That’s why I’m betting it like that. I’m going to guess SF gets the lead and tries to run it. KC throws it as they are playing from behind. I might be wrong but that’s my feeling.
