Well, we made it to the last big hoorah, the big game. We are in familiar territory, too. We have a rematch of Super Bowl LVII, Chiefs vs. Eagles. Two teams came into the season as favorites got here. This is a great matchup with two of the best teams in the NFL over the past several years. The Chiefs want to do something that has never been done in NFL history by winning back-to-back Super Bowls. The Eagles are looking to win their second Super Bowl in the last seven years. Who will win Super Bowl LIX?
This game is always the most bet on sporting events of the year. If you want something to bet on, you are likely going to be able to find it. You can bet on it from the coin toss, the length of the national anthem, to the color of the Gatorade shower at the end of the game. This makes it fun for your casual or more serious bettor. Let’s take a look at some of my favorite bets on Super Bowl LIX.

Xavier Worthy Over 55.5 receiving yards
Worthy has become Mahome’s favorite target for the Chiefs. Mahomes will obviously lean on Travis Kelce in some high-leverage situations, but Worthy has taken over the Rashee Rice role and is the featured guy in Andy Reid’s offense.
The other thing we love about Worthy is the amount of “easy” touches he gets. The Chiefs offense will throw him bubbles and manufactured touches and he has the speed to turn a short catch into a long gain at any moment.
Kareem Hunt’s Longest Reception over 5.5 yards
Hunt has replaced Isaiah Pacheco as the RB1 in Kansas City. He has greatly out-snapped Pacheco recently, including the AFC championship game. In that game, Hunt took 58% of the snaps, and Pacheco only had 29% of the snaps.
The Eagles have a tremendous pass rush. This could lead to more check-downs and screens on the Chief’s end. This is a relatively small number, and it only takes one to get to that number.
Patrick Mahomes longest rush over 12.5 yards
Mahomes has shown that during the regular season, he is not going to run the football if he doesn’t have to. However, when the playoffs come, he is going to use his legs. Andy Reid and the Chiefs even drew up a designed run for Mahomes in the AFCCG that resulted in a touchdown.
In his last four games, Mahomes has rushes of 12, 15, 12, and 15 yards. He also rushed the ball 11 times in the AFCCG. We have also seen him make huge plays in previous Super Bowls and playoff games.
Dallas Goedert over 4.5 receptions
It is no secret that the Chiefs have struggled to cover the Tight-End position all year. They have allowed 7 catches for 81 yards per game against the position.
The Eagles’ rushing attack is going to put the Chiefs linebackers and safeties in a bind, with them likely selling out to stop the run. This could allow Goedert to see even more targets than normal. In the playoffs, Goedert has received 8, 4, and 6 targets. He is in a good position to crush this 4.5 number.
