Hunter Henry Super Bowl same-game parlay
Drake Maye's threw for more than 230 yards in 13 of the first 16 weeks of the regular season. His passing numbers have dropped in recent games but that's been largely due to poor weather and Santa Clara should bring the best weather he's seen in two months.
Maye will primarily throw short and intermediate routes. That should lead to more tackling opportunities for Seattle's Nick Emmanwori, who often covers tight ends and backs. The standout rookie has tallied 6+ total tackles in four of his last seven games.
