Super Bowl LI: 5 Interesting Prop Bets to Target
Both Teams Combining for 76 or More Points to Break the Super Bowl Record: YES (+550)
When it comes to having fun with prop bets, you have to bet on one or two longshots for fun.
The moneyline of +550 roughly indicates a 15% chance of this bet winning. The over/under is 58.5, the highest in Super Bowl history.
Falcons games have gone over the total an astounding 15 out of 18 times. Two games went under while another pushed. Their games have gone over the total by an average of 9.3 points per game. In the playoffs, the Patriots and the Falcons have seen their games eclipse the total in all four games.
We are well aware of the Patriots and their high-octane (Todd Graham trademark) offense, but it's no exaggeration that the Falcons have one of the greatest offenses in NFL history.
Going by our Net Expected Points metric, Atlanta and New England finished first and second respectively in total offense. If you are willing to make one wacky bet on Sunday, this is one to target.
