Best prop bets & exotics for Super Bowl LIV

One of the great things about the Super Bowl besides being the most anticipated game of the year is the amount of NFL betting action on offer. This is especially the case with proposition bets, or ‘props’.

A prop bet is one where the outcome of the game does not matter. There are player props, team props, and plenty of novelty bets that have nothing to do with the game itself.

Many football prop bets have even odds, while others have inflated odds. You can make some serious money if a prop bet with long odds comes in.

For example, in Super Bowl XLVIII between the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos, the first score of the game was a safety. Any bettor that made that wager had odds of +4000.

There are some prop bets out there for this Super Bowl LIV with massive payouts. If you think the San Francisco 49ers will win by exactly 41 points, for instance, you can get odds of --100 at Bovada.

Super Bowl LIV player prop bets

A player prop bet is pretty easy to understand. Most of them focus on whether or not a player will achieve a certain stat or feat within the game. A few examples of NFL player props are:

• Patrick Mahomes Over/Under 302.5 passing yards
• Raheem Mostert Over/Under 74.5 rushing yards
• Will Jimmy Garoppolo throw a touchdown in the first quarter?
• Will Richard Sherman intercept a pass?

There are plenty of player-related Super Bowl betting props available. While most are for skill positions, there are options for defensive players and even the kickers. There are also quite a few head-to-head player prop bets, such as Patrick Mahomes versus Jimmy Garoppolo for most passing yards or Raheem Mostert versus Damien Williams for rushing yards.

Super Bowl LIV team prop bets

A team prop bet is simply a wager where either of the two teams is involved. Common examples include:

• Will the Kansas City Chiefs score a touchdown in the first quarter?
• Will the 49ers’ first score be a field goal?
• Will the Chiefs win the first and second half?
• Will San Francisco have Over/Under five penalties in the game?
• Which team will have more penalties?
• Which team will have more first downs in the first half?

Super Bowl LIV game prop bets

There are also many NFL game prop bets, such as:

• Will the first score in the game be a field goal?
• Will there be a safety in the game?
• Will there be a challenge flag thrown in the second half?

Some of these types of prop bets have huge payouts, like the one mentioned before about the first score being a safety in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Super Bowl LIV novelty bets

The Super Bowl is more than a game. This year Demi Lovato will sing the National Anthem, while Shakira and Jennifer Lopez are the co-headliners of the Halftime Show. There are prop bets aplenty for the Super Bowl entertainment, such as:

• Will Lovato miss a word in the National Anthem?
• Will the National Anthem be Over/Under 119.5 seconds?
• Will Lopez or Shakira drink a Pepsi during the performance?
• Will Lovato wear nail polish during the anthem?

There are dozens of other Super Bowl props that have nothing to do with the game itself, including:

• Which team will win the coin toss?
• Will Donald Trump sing during the National Anthem
• Will they show Kyle Shanahan or Andy Reid first on the broadcast?
• Will they show Jay Z during the Halftime Show?
• Will Colin Kaepernick be mentioned during the broadcast?

As you can see, there are tons of different type of prop bets to make. Some of the leading online sportsbooks have over 400 NFL Super Bowl props.
