NFL football Betting Online: One of the most popular Super Bowl traditions is the winning coach getting doused with a drink at the end of the game. Since this is the most popular betting game of the year, it's only natural to make a wager on what color drink will be poured on the coach.

One of the more intriguing bets involves the two kickers and asks if the longest field goal will be over or under 46 1/2 yards.

NFL football Betting Online: One of the most interesting NFL prop bets for the Super Bowl involves New England tight end Aaron Hernandez. He is the No. 2 tight end for the Patriots, and while on most teams the backup tight end wouldn't get much action, this team is made in a different mold. The duo of Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski is the best tight end combination in the NFL. It doesn't hurt that the team's quarterback is star Tom Brady, but both Gronkowski and Hernandez are very talented.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: There are many reasons to thank the football gods for the invention of the Super Bowl, the first and most important being that it comes at the end of the playoff.

NFL football Betting Online: The Super Bowl is a great time for NFL football gambling bets because of all the different prop bets that can be wagered upon. This year's game features the New York Giants against the New England Patriots. One of the more interesting prop bets asks, which will be the highest scoring quarter. The odds for the first quarter being the highest-scoring is the longest at +300. There are a couple reasons for this. The first is that the game is tied from the outset, so neither team will feel the need to take big chances to try to make up ground. Also, since there is an opening kickoff, the first possession of the quarter will likely be deep in the offensive team's opening territory. Another reason is that the team with the ball at the end of the quarter will not feel a rush to score because the drive can resume in the second quarter.  Continue...

NFL football Betting Online: The New England Patriots have one of the highest scoring offenses in the NFL, led by quarterback Tom Brady and tight end Rob Gronkowski. The team is facing off with the New York Giants in the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 5th at Lucas Oil Stadium. There is an interesting NFL prop bet for this game, as the over-under total for New England is set at 29 1/2 points. As it stands, the betting public is hitting the 'under' hard. The NFL football wagering currently has the under at -135, while the over sits at +105.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs combined to miss six games during the regular season and because of that they have fresh legs for Super Bowl XLVI.

Both members of New York’s backfield are dangerous as runners and receivers. Bradshaw has averaged 4.3 yards per carry and 6.8 yards per catch during the playoffs.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: Tom Brady would join elite company should he hoist the Lombardi Trophy for the fourth time in the last 10 years.

Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana are the only quarterbacks to win the Super Bowl four times. Montana is considered by many as the greatest signal caller of all time, but Brady would firmly insert himself into that conversation with a win on February 5. His Patriots are NFL odds 3-point favorites versus New York.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: Bill Belichick is heralded as an offensive mastermind and his system isn’t based around the run game. But when he does call on it, expect the unexpected.

Belichick likes to get creative with his run schemes. Excluding quarterbacks, nine New England players registered at least one rushing attempt during the regular season. Two of those “runners” were tight ends and two were receivers.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: If you are anything like me, Super Bowl Sunday is largely an excuse to stuff as many buffalo wings into my mouth while I avoid the concerned looks from my friends and family. Add to that equation a beer and some wagers and it equals a solid, if debilitating afternoon. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to bet on Super Bowl XLVI, as it will only add to the excitement of the unofficial national holiday.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: You can’t spell elite without the letters E-L-I. Eli Manning undoubtedly falls into the elite subset of NFL quarterbacks. Long the second fiddle to elder brother Peyton, if Eli wins Super Bowl XLVI, which would be his second, he could surpass his sibling in terms of legacy. Manning’s Giants are 3-point NFL odds underdogs to New England on Super Sunday.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: Super Bowl XLVI is expected to be the most wagered on sporting event in history. More than $10 billion is estimated to exchange hands in bets worldwide. BookMaker is the world’s leading online sportsbook. The Super Bowl NFL lines originated there Sunday night and the New England Patriots opened as 3.5-point favorites while the total surfaced at 55.5.  Continue...

Super Bowl Betting Online: I can understand the New England Patriots doing nothing but throw bombs when they have deep threats like Randy Moss and company, but they need to either get Stevan Ridley in the lineup or draft a running back HIGH. New England is like the Giants in the belief that running the ball is really a secondary type of operation in this offensive juggernaut, but you need more than that to win NFL Super Bowl XLVI Betting. One of the problems with the Pats offense is that they haven’t actually done some type of rushing game development or advancement I guess. BenJarvus Green-Ellis just is NOT the answer now or ever Bill Belichickadee.  Continue...

Super Bowl Betting Online: The most talked about quarterback in the NFL is obviously Matt Leinart…of course I jest as Tom Brady and the New England Patriots prepare to do battle with the New York Giants. The Battle between Tom Brady and himself is probably a bigger fight than I can try to muster as I try to figure out why the Odds for Super Bowl XLVI have the Pats a 3 point favorite at BookMaker. Brady did not look sharp in the American Football Conference Championship victory over the Baltimore Ravens, so I’m a little frustrated about the team I am Betting on the Super Bowl.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: The offshore sportsbooks and odds makers in Las Vegas made their NFL Opening Lines for Super Bowl XLVI with the Patriots -3.5, but after an immediate New York Giants pounding, settled at New England -3 for now.  Continue...

Super Bowl Betting Online: Super Bowl XLVI is obviously going to be a mighty passing game by both teams, but Ahmad Bradshaw may hold the key to the New York Giants defeating the New England Patriots.

I want to rip into the Giants for letting the run game go into a free fall and make my NFL Super Bowl Wagering that much tougher. These Giant running backs went from 2,200 yards rushing last year to 1,427 this year. They only rushed for 65% of the yards they did only one year earlier.  Continue...

NFL Betting Online: Tom Brady will go down as one of the top-ten quarterbacks of all time thanks to his mixture of incredulous stats and consistent success that have propelled him to three Super Bowl victories. If Brady were to win this year, not only would he get revenge on a New York Giants team that stuffed his dream of a perfect season, he would move into a dead tie with Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw for the most Super Bowl victories in a career by a quarterback, entering one of the most elite clubs in all of sports.  Continue...
