As we approach the Super Bowl, there are still a couple of sportsbooks with different lines on specific props. We’ll look at those bets and decide which side you should be on.

Jalen Hurts Under 31.5 Passing Attempts (-108 via FanDuel)
In the playoffs, Hurts has only thrown 49 balls in two games. That’s an average of 24.5 attempts per game.
While Caesars, DraftKings, and Golden Nugget are holding 32.5 numbers, all those props are juiced up. There’s no oddsmaker close to Under 31.5 for Jalen Hurts’ passing attempts.
The Chiefs will also be one of the best defenses the Eagles will face this year. Kansas City might be young and inexperienced, especially in the secondary, but they’ve got a wicked pass rush that could move Hurts out of the pocket. Once Hurts is out of pocket, he’ll have no problem trying to run for extra yardage instead of throwing it.
The Eagles do have the best offensive line in the game. But the Chiefs will at least be a little threat to the Philadelphia offensive line. Take Hurts under his passing attempts at the key number of 31.5.
Kenneth Gainwell Over 10.5 Receiving Yards (-114 via FanDuel)
The Eagles know they need to get Kenneth Gainwell the ball in this game. He might be a backup running back for the Eagles, but he plays like a starter.
Gainwell had two catches on three targets last weekend and had a long play of 17 yards. He’s got incredible speed and earned 26 rushing attempts throughout the first two weeks.
That means he’s getting the reps and will be featured in this offense more times than not.
While most books hold an 11.5 number for Gainwell, FanDuel has Gainwell at 10.5. There’s clear value on his Over with all other sportsbooks suggesting that his line should be set at 11.5. And I certainly agree.
A.J. Brown Under 72.5 Receiving Yards (-114 via FanDuel)
I think Brown will be featured more in this Philadelphia offense. But over the first two games in the playoffs, he’s only caught 50% of balls thrown his way and has earned just 50 yards on seven catches. He’s averaging just 7.1 yards per catch and hasn’t been a huge factor.
I already acknowledged that I expect Hurts to be thrown a few times in this game, to begin with. WynnBet has the line at 70.5, and Hard Rock has the line at 70.5. Getting the best price at Under 72.5 is ideal.
Travis Kelce Over 77.5 Receiving Yards (-115 via MGM)
There’s no one more consistent than Travis Kelce. Kelce was injured and still caught seven balls for 78 yards against the Bengals in the AFC Championship game.
In the playoffs, Kelce has caught 21 of 25 balls thrown his way. He’s also earned 176 yards and 8.4 yards per catch in the playoffs.
The Chiefs’ receiving core has been banged up lately. Even he’s been banged up. But he’s clearly fine and capable of adding another huge game against the Eagles in the Super Bowl. The volume will be there for Kelce to earn 78 receiving yards.
MGM is currently at 77.5 receiving yards, while the rest of the sportsbooks are sitting at 78.5. There’s clear value on the Over 77.5.
Isiah Pacheco Anytime Touchdown (+180 via MGM)
Pacheco is +110 to score a touchdown at FanDuel. He’s also +125 at DraftKings and Caesars. But MGM is holding Pacheco to score a touchdown at +180.
The market completely disagrees with MGM right now.
Pacheco hasn’t scored in the postseason. One play was called back that would’ve been a touchdown for Pacheco. But either way, he’s earned 22 carries in two games and has had an extended play of 39 yards that was very close to becoming a touchdown too. He’s getting closer and closer each week. At +180, it’s a no-brainer to grab Pacheco to score a touchdown.
