Different Types Of Bets For Super Bowl
Posted : admin On 4/13/2022For pockets of viewers, the best part of Super Bowl LV won't be determined by the winner of the matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Instead, they will be focused on the handfuls of prop bets that are only available via services such as BetOnline.ag once every February.

Bet on the Super Bowl MVP. Super Bowl halftime prop bets explained. The Super Bowl halftime show is must-watch TV, even for casual football fans. The midway mark of the NFL championship game is a spectacle just begging to. There are many different types of Super Bowl prop bets, from player props or team props during the game, to the more unique Super Bowl props around the National Anthem, Halftime Show, Awards or even the colour of the Gatorade shower, and they are just a few examples. Player prop bets are an extremely popular form of Super Bowl bet. For example, you may bet on a quarterback's total passing yards in a game or a wide receiver's total receiving yards.
Like each NFL contest, the upcoming Super Bowl will feature a plethora of in-game prop bets involving quarterbacks, receivers and pass-rushers. The real fun, however, is in the entertainment aspects of the big game that don't involve players. What commercial will first air? Who will say what at halftime? These are the types of prop bets found only on Super Sundays.

First offensive play
Much of the discussion about Super Bowl LV is about the showdown between six-time Super Bowl quarterback Tom Brady and reigning Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes, so one may rush to hit the +105 bet on the first offensive play of the game being a pass. To steal from Lee Corso: Not so fast, my friends.
Tampa Bay has 'Playoff Lenny' Leonard Fournette in the backfield, while rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire is already a proven play-maker for the Chiefs. The -135 for a run being the game's first offensive play isn't great value, but it may ultimately prove to be the safest prop bet available.
A score in the first 2:30 of the game: Yes (+550) or No (-900)
Have you seen these offenses? Brady needed roughly four minutes to drive down the field for his scripted opening drive against the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship Game, and Mahomes engineered a game-winning drive versus the Las Vegas Raiders on Nov. 22 in under 90 seconds. Thus, 2:30 is an eternity against either signal-caller fresh into a contest.
Total points by Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker: Under 8.5 (-130) or Over 8.5 (+100)
This one gets tricky when you consider two-point conversions. For example, Mason Crosby would've hit the over on Jan. 24 had he been given the opportunity to kick after every Green Bay touchdown. Chiefs coach Andy Reid is a gambler but could find himself playing it safe if his team is in the lead throughout the Super Bowl. How you bet here may be determined by which team you think will win.
Tom Brady over 39.5 passes attempts (-125) or under (-105)
Brady's Bucs held a 28-10 lead early into the third quarter against Green Bay, and that papered over the fact that the 43-year-old was dreadful for the bulk of the second half. Still, he finished that outing with 36 total passes. Unless Mahomes is uncharacteristically off, Brady should take to the air early and often.
How many players will be sidelined due to COVID-19? Under 1.5 (-700) or Over (+400)
With any luck, this will be the first and only time COVID-19 is ever mentioned among Super Bowl prop bets. Both the Chiefs and Bucs have made it through the playoffs without enduring even a hint of an outbreak, but Super Bowl week brings with it different kinds of distractions, even during a pandemic. We don't want to single out anybody, let alone a certain tight end known for enjoying his fair share of parties, but maybe keep an eye on TMZ Sports headlines before placing any money on this one.
OK, enough about the game. Let's get into why you're all really here.

According to Odds Shark, tails has hit in 29 of the 54 previous Super Bowl games. 'Tails never fails' is a fun saying, but are you willing to put serious money on it?
Will The Weeknd first be seen with sunglasses at halftime: Yes (-140) or No (+100)
Florida and sunglasses seem to go together as perfectly as Mahomes connecting with tight end Travis Kelce in the end zone for a touchdown. While it will be dark outside by the time The Weeknd takes the stage, he could find himself blinded by the stadium lights to the point that he requires some eye protection.
We'll see ourselves out.
First Anheuser-Busch brand commercial to run: Bud Light (+120), Michelob Ultra (+175), Bud Light Seltzer Lemonade (+175) or Michelob Ultra Organic Seltzer (+200)
You actually can't go wrong with any of these and could even save some money by hedging your bets. Scared money doesn't make money, though, and Bud Light Seltzer Lemonade isn't going to sell itself during the cold winter months.
How many times will 'kindergarten' be said during the broadcast: Under 0.5 times (-900) or over (+500)
For context:
Patrick Mahomes was in kindergarten when Tom Brady won his first Super Bowl.

— ESPN (@espn) January 25, 2021This feels like a sucker bet, almost like BetOnline.ag knows something we don't. Logic suggests the subject will come up during Mahomes' opening drive, especially if the camera shows an irritated Brady watching the action from the sidelines.
And last but certainly not least:
Super Bowl MVP
Mahomes (-125) is the clear favorite, with Brady checking in at decent value (+225) in second. 'Playoff Lenny' is there at +3300, and the previously mentioned Kelce sits at +1200 and is practically guaranteed to see multiple red-zone targets come his way.
Former disgruntled Pittsburgh Steelers star running back Le'Veon Bell is reportedly healthy and ready to play for the Chiefs, and his +15000 odds could serve as the figurative chip on his shoulder that propels him to an MVP trophy.
