We also love the Super Bowl Prop Bets each year because with nearly 1,000 different ways to wager on the game, the bookmaker is bound to make glaring mistakes. We have found nine of them for this year’s Super Bowl!

Now, let’s win some money . . .
ROB GRONKOWSKI – OVER 4 RECEPTIONS (-130)
Over the years, the Patriots have been very careful in how they use Gronk during the regular season because he is so injury prone. Plain and simple, they want him healthy for the postseason because he is a true difference maker. So, we have no concerns that he has averaged just 2.2 receptions per game over the last five games and has only gone over four receptions four times in 15 games played this season. As the saying goes, “there is no tomorrow” for Gronk and the Patriots, so we expect him to be a major part of the game plan on Sunday. Toss in the fact that the Rams play a lot of zone on defense and allowed the second-most yards to opposing tight ends this season, and we love this play even more.
OVER 3.5 FIELD GOALS (+100)
Depending on where it closes on Sunday, this has a chance to be the highest total in Super Bowl history. So, obviously, with two of the better offenses in the league facing off there are going to be more points scored than an average NFL game. And with perfect playing conditions, and two of the best kickers in the league, we’ll call for more than 3 field goals. Extra incentive here: The Rams attempted the second-most FGs in the league this year (41) and the Pats were ninth (32).
WILL THE FIRST KICKOFF OF THE GAME BE A TOUCHBACK? – NO (+160)
We like the plus money here, especially if the Patriots are kicking off. Bill Belichick always wants his kickers to try to land the ball inside the 10-yard-line to force a return and over the last three seasons Stephen Gostkowski ranks 27th in the league in touchback percentage at 23.8%. While the Rams touchback percentage is much higher, New England return man Cordarrelle Patterson loves to take the ball out of the endzone and for good reason, as he ranks fourth in the league in kickoff return yards. So unless they boom it over his head, he’s going to try and return it, and at a +160 price we’ll take our chances.
