was just perusing the superbowl props and this jumped out!

[mh217]

first kickoff of the game will be a touchback -165...being that they are in a dome this should happen...thoughts??

[DerekMadden]

agreed

[mh217]

either kicker should be able to kick it outta the back of the endzone being indoors with the adrenalin.

[warriorfan707]

seems too easy at -165

[mh217]

damn i couldnt resist..had to take it before i overthought it.

good luck! I too am going to lay some money on it!

[DerekMadden]

heck, may even use it in a parlay as a multiplier

[DerekMadden]

on the topic of prop-bets

here is one I found pretty tasty..

Ahmad Bradshaw Longest Pass Reception Will Be:

Over 11.5 yds -108
Under 11.5 yds -108

We all know Eli loves to dump it off to the RB when in danger.
We also know that New England doesn't have very good corners.

the over looks really really good

[mh217]

its at heritage so its only giving me straight plays on it..where can i parlay props at?..5 dimes??..i would parlay tails coin toss.. yes touchback...pats ml 1st half.. and over 1st half if they will let me..

[DerekMadden]

no you're right, I can't parlay it ;(

[rsnnh12]

Great call! Pats will most likely kick first (they usually defer), and Gostkowski has a good leg. Most of his kicks last week were touchbacks if I remember correctly

[milwaukee mike]

i'm on this too

if they onside kick to start the game i'm throwing the tv out the window

[ebbearsfb1]

Hopefully it goes through the endzone though.. would hate it for to be 8 yards back at the returners juice is pumping and he takes it out

[SlickRick1382]

I like it and will bet it

Has anyone seen the these or have any thoughts on these

Any place to find stats on his kickoffs this year?

Just found he only had a 40.6% touchback rate this year. Granted, should be easier in a dome, but not sure about this one. 9/14 in the playoffs. -165 might be solid.

lol you read my mind with that..but seriously im liking the bet even more after hearing you guys do the research with the stats..hopefully i can have a good week leading up to this game so i can throw more on it..its a quick and scary bet but it def makes sense.

The good thing is at least its not a. Brown, or hester or a big time return who might chance it
