Best Super Bowl Prop Bets That Aren’t Being Talked About

Grab some of the best Super Bowl LX props that fly under the radar.

The temptation for casual NFL betting fans when it comes to Super Bowl props is to go on hunches and to hammer a lot of bets, spray and pray style.

Sharps know to pick their spots, knowing that there are some edges that the books haven’t priced in as well as they should. These are hidden value bets that can boost a bankroll for the upcoming NFL offseason.

Some of these are often further down the menu from the standard Super Bowl prop bet like QB yardage, or the weird novelty props like the color of the coach’s Gatorade shower. Leave those coin flips to the amateurs.

The number of player prop bets are into the hundreds and even thousands these days on most sportsbooks. Spotting the WR4 and TE3 players are a key to winning the day with props.

New England’s Mack Hollins isn’t going to leave field at Super Bowl 60 with the MVP trophy in hand, but his role in the Patriots’ offense is real. He posted 48 catches on 67 targets for 601 yards in the regular season, good for a healthy yards‑per‑target number on a Patriots receiving group that doesn’t have a dominant alpha. New England does have Stefon Diggs and Kayshon Boutte to stretch the field though, leaving room for Hollins underneath for shorter and intermediate passes. This matters even more against a tough Seahawks’ D that will force New England QB Drake Maye to get rid of the ball quickly. And with Seattle possibly opening up a big lead in the second half, more passing is going to be part of the program.

Short kings could rule the day at Super Bowl LX.

Short yardage kings, that is. That means Maye using Stevenson as a frequent outlet as the Seahawks’ defense ramps up the pressure. Use the same logic that we just applied to Hollins: checkdowns, swing passes, screen plays – these all line up for Stevenson to have a lot of touches. He’ll be used to chip the strong Seattle edge rushers too, leaving him open to turn around for a 3-4 yard pass and then using his running skills to rack up the YAC.

The current Over for Stevenson’s receptions is 3.5, and it’s paying +129. Feels like an attainable number for all the reasons we just outlined.

Yeah, we know. Jake who?

But the Seahawks’ receiver is a classic under-the-radar Super Bowl pick to be an anytime touchdown scorer.

Bobo’s backstory alone is worth putting down a few bucks on this +1000 longshot. He’s a New England native and was a huge Patriots fan growing up. Contrarian bets are what we’re into, so having a talented receiver – who picked up a TD in the NFC Conference Championship – enjoy playing the villain against friends and family is a pretty tempting angle when it comes to this prop bet.

Factor in the on-the-field stuff too. New England is going to be blanketing Jaxon Smith-Njigba, with Cooper Kupp and Rashid Shaheed getting plenty of attention too. That leaves Bobo with room to roam. And at 6’4”, Bobo has 3-5 inches over each of the Pats’ DBs and is a prime target for Sam Darnold with a jump ball in the end zone at any point in the game.

Most Super Bowl prop betting will be focused on Walker’s rushing yards, but the better angle in this matchup is the number of attempts he’ll get.

First up, Seattle comes into the game as the favorite. This bakes in a higher probability of sitting on a lead in the second half, chewing up the clock through runs. It keeps the ball out of Maye’s hands and reduces the overall number of possessions for New England.

Then there’s the Pats’ defense. They’ve given up the fewest rushing yards per game in the NFL Playoffs. This actually helps this rushing prop bet, since fewer yards allowed per rush means fewer quick-strike drives of just 5-7 plays. The Seahawks will be more than happy to grind it out with 3-yard runs that add up to 10-12-play drives.

Finally, you’ve got injuries. Walker’s regular season running mate Zach Charbonnet is out, and Charbonnet was normally good for 10+ carries per game. Virtually all those carries are now going to go to Walker.

Not the most exciting of prop bet types, but field goal bets pay out just like any other prop.

New England is comfortable playing for three when drives stall. Mike Vrabel isn’t overly cautious, but he’s no Dan Campbell, always-go-for-it-on-4th-down kind of coach either. Their playoff path has had some conservative decisions in the red zone and on fourth‑and‑short. That mindset won’t shift much when the Patriots head to a Super Bowl against a favored Seattle team. And we all know that both teams tend to play tighter in big games. Coaches are no different.

Seattle’s red‑zone defense is also strong, with a front that can penetrate and force third‑and‑longs regularly.

That all adds up to the Pats trying to secure points on every drive they can, relying on kicker Andy Borregales to keep them within striking distance on the scoreboard.

For Super Bowl betting, we know it’s the final game for next 7 months. But the smart money avoids any of that “last shot” feeling and skips the need to fire on everything on the board. Pick the props that actually match the story you believe about how Patriots–Seahawks will play out. Then build a bet slip that makes sense if that story ends up being right.

Also, remember that the Super Bowl is the most-bet event on the sports calendar. That means that most of the headline bets and big name props are priced with extreme precision already. The sportsbooks have had all season to adjust and sharpen their models.

The real edges still exist with some homework, and they’re usually found outside of the spotlight.
