The over is the right bet but with both defensive lines being really strong at rushing the passer I could see defenses getting off the field/forcing a FG attempt. 

That makes sense in theory, but I’m not sure how much it will effect the outcome. Both teams are top 5 in 3rd down conversion percentage on the year, and have good OLs to counter the rush. 

I don’t see KC slowing SF enough on the ground to the point where they wouldn’t be passing out of convertible third and short situations consistently. As for KC, they really don’t have to run at all. Andy Reid just throws in a run once in a while just so he can say he did.

Going Tails and Under on the anthem this year.

what makes you say this about the anthem? anything to actually back this up?

 

Curious to hear what other prop bets people have success with. I just took Kendrick bourne to score the first TD of the game at +1800. Also took him to score first niners TD at +1100. He is someone garoppolo looks for in that part of the field. would be great if he scores first because I would win both lol 

I was looking for fred warner mvp but I dont see it offered at my book. was thinking of putting small amounts on a bunch of niners defenders because I feel like someone could get a late takeaway that decides the game. unfortunate that the only two guys I have available are sherman and bosa, which are good options that I bet on, but I was just hoping for some real long shot with a great payout for fun. deebo samuel is a guy I took as well. I didnt really want to put any WR, because its super rare for them to win, but we hand him the ball a lot and its possible he gets 5-6 carries and 3-4 catches where he does a lot once he has the ball. could score a TD multiple ways too, which helps a lot with these kinds of things. 

I already placed a large wager on the over 54. Thinking about doing two 25% bets on each teams total. KC team total is 26.5 and SF team total is 27.5. by splitting up the bet, I feel confident at least one will hit, with a strong chance both hit. Hard to see neither team reaching 28 points. Increase the payout when the game goes over, but not lose if only one team is scoring. 

I will say, the closer we get the less confident I am in the over. I took 54 basically immediately thinking the public would bet this number up a lot. The fact it hasnt moved that much despite most of the money coming in on the over means that vegas wants to encourage more betting, which is always a scary thought. I know they are fearful of sharps pounding the over if they move it too much, but at some point, you have to think the liability would be too large to risk not moving it up. 

I think this will be a game that goes way over or not over at all. I am thinking of doing an alternate line of the over 64.5 +270 along with the under 44.5 +270. not sure if that would make mathematical sense though

Warner coming in at +12500 (!) on Bet365. He was a guy I was looking to sprinkle on. Deebo coming in at +5000.

Eh, I’m trying not to over think it. I expected the line to move as well, but it’s not the end of the world, and it’s still early. Based on what I’ve seen these last few weeks I don’t think either offense will have major issues moving the ball. The only thing that worries me is some unforeseen, non-personnel related issue like the offenses coming out flat for some reason (e.g. pressure of the moment). But even then each team are explosive enough to rip off consistent chunk plays and score from anywhere on the field at any moment. The field is filled with track players. Safe to say there’s a good chance it’ll be a track meet.

You know if you do this the game total will come out to 50, right? Lol

"Will they mention that J.Garoppolo started w/Pats?"

Yes -150

No +100

Thinking about slamming the yes on this. What are the odds they go an entire three hours without mentioning Jimmy was on the Patriots?

They will, if for no other reason to make the comment that it'll be his third ring (first two obviously as a backup). They can't disclose that without mentioning he was on the pats.

I feel like that's a lock

One prop I made which I kind of regret was that the opening kickoff will be a touchback -150

 

The niners have had slight issues coving kicks down the stretch. I think our rookie punter/kickoff specialist will try and kick the ball out of the back of the endzone for this reason. Mitchwish hasn't really boomed the ball on kickoffs this year but he does have a huge leg.b

I watched some kickoffs with hardman and I didn't like what I saw. He takes the ball out of the end zone a lot. Not great for this prop lol 

I am confident that butker will put the ball deep enough that the Richie James will take the touchback. I think the niners will be fine with taking the ball at the 25 initially. 

I hope the niners kick off so that we can get the ball in the second half (Superbowl win >>> money) but if KC kicks off, I feel like I'm gonna win this bet 

 

I also took Fred warner over 6.5 combined tackles + assists. Jimmie ward over 4 combined tackles + assists. 

I took Garoppolo to throw a TD in the first quarter +280. I think the niners are gonna come out throwing. Felt like good value.

Sorry haven't been on in a couple days to answer this. Anyways over on the anthem has been on a roll lately in Super Bowls, I have a feeling that it is time for an under. Also my book has her at 2:04 right now. She has sung the anthem at 5 major sporting events and has only broken that mark once, albeit the last time she sung it was the time she broke that mark. So 1-4 in breaking the mark and a feeling in me undies is the reasoning.
