Super Bowl Bets

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.

Google up Demi Lovato anthem durations.  Shes sung it a bunch of times in recent years at various events.

 

Best prop bet from research I've done is Kittle on the under 5.5 catches.  He had one last game, and I see niners doing a ground and pound, taking a chapter from the Belichick playbook when you play a superior offensive team.   And I took under on Mahomes 36 attempts simply because I don't see them getting much time of possession.

If course its a total guess and nobody has a clue, although I'd love to do these prop bets w Andy Reid right now.  Dude has some serious inside info.

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.

Yeah, I agree.  It’s about as even as I can remember.  I want KC because I always felt Reid was underrated and I love Mahomes (but Hill is human garbage).  But it does always seem like the really good defensive team beats the high powered offense in SBs.  
 

I also am starting to like the Jimmy G overs and MVP props.  He has gotten killed because he hasn’t done anything and I can see them letting him make some plays to shut people up.

I think SF and the over. Should be a terrific game, but SF defensive advantage outweighs KC offensive advantage. Other prop bets are fun, but sh*t luck. 

I look at this from the opposite perspective.  SF offense is better than the KC defense.

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.

I like that bet


only major worry on Sammy is if he’s 150 yards and 2 TDs he’s still likely less than 50-50 with mahomes who also probably had a huge day

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. 


(Now that I read page 2 and see the surface level was discussed) I think a San Fran WR, any back or even hardman as a kick returner comes with the perk of doing it without mahomes. The league will be soooooo eager to hand him the award and start his legacy. Kelce, Sammy and tyreek have to be huuuuuge longshots even though any could have a great game

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas has made a wager with San Francisco Mayor London Breed. Lucas will visit and bring her Gates Barbeque, Boulevard beer, knick-knacks from The Main, and Charlie Hustle t-shirts if KC loses; and Breed will visit and bring him Thanh Long garlic noodles and roasted crab, rum cake from Dianda's Bakery, and Anchor Brewing beer is SF loses.

Alright here is what i put in today:

Safety by either team +900

Darwin Thompson will score a td +600

Jimmy garropolo will score a td +700

Tevin Coleman most rushing yards +1100

Special teams td by either team +600

Both teams score every quarter +650

 

Took fliers on the highest odds i thought could actually happen.  If I can hit on any 2 of these I will make all of my money back with a nice little profit.  The safety I bet double on so that one on it's own will take care of that.

 

Niners +1.5 and under 53.5 +250

 

Had to actually bet on the game.  Moneyline was only 270 so I figured I would take the points.  

 

Good luck everyone!

I put in Mecole Hardman to score the games 1st TD.....I think at +900  figured he'll possibly get a chance to return the opening kickoff, and he's involved pretty heavily on the KC offense.....seems like a decent shot.

 

The other substantial one was KC winning by 13-18 points +900.

Right I have had 5 bets:

 

Hardman first Chiefs touchdown @ 14/1

Sanders first 49ers touchdown @ 7/1

Samuel MVP @ 33/1

Chiefs win and Mostert, Williams and Hill all score a TD @ 16/1

Chiefs win, more than 50 points in the game, Mahomes 300+ passing, Hill TD and at least 2 INTs @ 9/1

Obviously the 7 is sweet.  What might save you is Chiefs offense going off.  If KC goes off you have decent shots at 35 n 45.  You aren't getting 1st half wins but you might be there for the monster payout at the end.  How much is it?

No exotic bets for me (I wouldn’t even understand them!), but my $20 square drew 7 for the Chiefs and 0 for the 49ers. Pretty good numbers with a chance to win $500 at the end of each quarter. I can live with 7-0, 17-10, etc.

Crap. Didn’t see this thread before I posted the below on the pregame thread:
 

 

Living in NJ, I can legally gamble from my couch using the DraftKings app. 
 

My main bet is SF and the Under. +370. 
 

Other Fun bets I’m considering:

 

Heads or Tails on coin toss. (Even odds) 
Will the person who calls the coin toss call it correctly? (Even odds) 
Pick Heads/Tails AND the correct team (3:1 odds) 
Will any QB throw a flea flicker? (Yes is 2.5:1 odds) 
Will more than two players throw a TD pass (yes is 12:1 odds) 
Color of the Gatorade dumped on the wining coach (various odds based on Color, purple is the favorite). 
Will an offensive lineman score a TD? (20:1 odds). 
The jersey # of the first player to score a TD, over or under 26.5. 
Will there be any scoring drive that takes LESS time than the singing of the national anthem? No pays 3:1. 
Will any kick (XP or FG) hit an upright or the crossbar? 14:1 


 

that’s just a few. There are currently 540 things you can bet on on DK.  And since I couldn’t give a ***** about who wins this game, I might as well lose some money while watching it and eating more variations of cheese products than a human ever should.

I’m not sure what site allows bets like the over/under on the National anthem since that could clearly be messed with. Draft kings makes up for it by allowing a bet for whether any scoring drive will be longer/shorter than the singing time of the anthem.

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. 

Good call.  There was no value on any of the Chiefs players MVP odds because of how balanced they are.

I like the action on Gatorade bath color.

 

Best odds are 'clear' but last year hit on blue. 

 

Red and yellow/lime are also on the docket. 

 

I'll take orange at +450 

Good call.  I bet orange every year but this one because of the Kobe rumor that the gatorade would be purple.  I didn't bet it at all.

Well I went 3-5-1 on my props so no luck there, but I swept the board on my squares pool at work!

I have often seen the person running these grid pools at the end ‘eating’ squares; having to buy them up in order to run it fairly.  It’s always interesting to hear the grousing when the individual running the pool wins, only because they had to invest so heavily in it.
