Over and KC for me.

I think both defenses get shreded and I think Maholmes is the more seasoned QB to win it all.

[CanuckG]

Wow. 3 points book to book.

essentially the same offer cause of the price.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

The conversion works. There is no value anywhere here. over 26 1/2 +122/-132 converts to 23 1/2 -110/-102 Chiefs

And under 24 1/2 =122/105 covers to 25 1/2 -110/-102 Eagles

These numbers are about the same/no big deal. Think in terms of Pinnacle? They could be long with way and be happy. over 26 1/2 bets gives them under 26 1/2 -122 Or I think what they really want is betters to buy -132 juice and then they set with over 26 1/2 @ +132

One thing I am positive about is Pinnacle does not make mistakes and they do not give away value this early.

That's a great post, Bucky. Yes, the conversion on the juice just means that they're enticing bets.

I haven't researched Team Totals much. Mostly b/c books use the extreme juice on that market.

...When you put it together, considering Team Total push rates, the difference in team Totals may not be as much as it seems. There's a sweet spot here between 24 and 27 team total points that allows for a lot of wiggle room between 24.5 and 26.5.

Enough wiggle room, in fact, to give the full game underdog more Teat Total points than the Favorite, with the proper pricing.

Again, and it's worth repeating, at these numbers, expect the KC UNDER 26.5 (-132) to grow in price and the Philly OVER 24.5 (-122) to grow as well. By the prices moving so, these team totals become much closer than the actual score number indicates...

We're seeing the KC UNDER 26.5 at -137 and the Philly OVER 24.5 up to -125, as expected.

We're getting closer and closer to he proper conversion, which I said above was closer than it may seem to begin with.

While it is in a period of evolution with the extension of the extra point and increased frequency of 2 point conversions, it is still true that not very many teams land on a Team Total of 26, and less than half of that will land on 25. Hence the wiggle room offered.

[KVB]

Probably worth noting that the spread is now Philly -1 and the Total reamins the same at 49.5.

after philly money comes the KC money. we only have 12 more days of this lol.

[d2bets]

Im looking at the Superbowl line at pinnacle

KC +2-113
Phi -2+102

That's all good

Now the team totals

KC 26.5 over +122/under -132
Phil 24.5 over -122/ under +105


Anyone have insight why KC is higher despite being 2 point dogs?

It's a little odd but look at the juice. O24.5-122 is higher than O26.5+122. 25 and 26 are somewhat dead numbers.

[Allure]

Good input @KVB.

Not sure if I'll have a wager myself. Kinda want to enjoy the game without being stressed about wagers.

Gun to my head I'd take Philly 1H and KC full time. Low spread, higher TT for KC. Do the books speculate on a late Mahomes winning drive?

[ChuckyTheGoat]

How many guys feel compelled to bet the Super Bowl...just b/c it's the Big Game?

Only two events per year fall into that category, imho:
1) The Super Bowl.
2) The Kentucky Derby.

IMHO, this game is lined very well. There is a thought that the Chiefs pulled one out w/ a short-handed roster 1x. Doing it again, very hard.

The line looks perfect for two-way action. Talk to the books. I would think most are staring at action no heavier than 60/40, sitting on a winning ticket w/ very little swing either way.

Now we have KC UNDER 26.5 at -140 and Philly OVER 24.5 up to -135, again as expected and much closer to the proper conversion.

The Total as blinked as well and moved from 49.5 to 50.5, a little more in line with the Team Total expectations. The spread is still -1, but there is some pressure on the Philly side.

Bookmaker at Phi -2-108/+2-112. Onshores pretty much all -1.5.

Yes. To be clear, I was quoting Pinny's numbers there as they are the alt Team Total lines we were looking at and following in this thread.

[OldBill]

ok 2 points aint goona get get you a cover if you betting on chiefs to lose by 1 point your dumb as a rock or eagles to win by 1

the only superbowl i recall to finish with 1 point margin giants 20 bills 19 giants big 6.5 dog

Oh boy. Why do I feel like this could go down as legendary?

I mean of course it's unlikely, but is it possible? Of course.

It's neither dumb nor smart to choose spread or ML. All depends on the odds choices available to you. Like, yeah it would be dumb to bet KC ML +105 when you could instead take +2.5-110. Choosing ML for those options would be foolish. Or if you lay Phi ML -130 instead of -1.5-110. That would also be foolish.

this is the best and most sensible answer. everyone over thinking it and making calculated guesses. on a side note, this game can be owned by the eagles o line and secondary if they are who they have been this season. eagles and niners were most balanced teams in the nfl. don't think the kc pass rush will have success they did against burrow with eagles o line.
eagles only give up 170 pass ypg. kc is ranked 21 in rushing yards. defense wins championships, but when you have a balanced offense too, hard to beat. eagles will limit kelce and if mahomes goes deep he will get picked. eagles are +12 in turnover ratio compared to kc. tells you all you need to know when betting this game

good point. the avg gambler is betting on these events as normal. but the general public bets more on these big events. the derby brings out gamblers that don't even bet ponies because it is such an exciting and historical race. i wish more of the general public would bet the daytona 500. it's more like a lottery ticket and would increase viewership. betting a 20/1 is more exciting than a -110.

Yeah, I think this SB in particular is pretty balanced, and it would be quite easy for any book to shade and draw a little more action to one side or the other. The smart thing for a book to do in this game is to take volume. I'm actually surprised that none of the major onshores are offering some reduced juice. It would be so easy. Just hang Phi -1.5 at -108 both ways and the ML at -122/+106. Easy peasey and your customers will rave. Move the juice a few cents either way as needed.

Edit: Fanduel does have the ML at -122/+104, so I guess that juice is slightly reduced.

Looks like chiefs over took some money. Philly over was actually -140 early today.
