Sam Darnold odds should see plenty of action with bettors eager to wager on the Super Bowl MVP favorite, so let's get ahead of that line movement with his passing yards prop.
Sam Darnold best bet for Super Bowl LX
Sam Darnold Over 229.5 passing yards (-113)
Sam Darnold threw for 4,048 yards in the regular season despite often playing with a positive game script. The Seattle Seahawks pivot went ballistic in the NFC Conference Championship Game, completing 25-for-36 passes for 346 yards.
The New England Patriots are stout against the run, so Seattle will likely air it out against a defense that ranked 15th in dropback success rate. The Pats haven't allowed many passing yards over the last month, but have often played in poor weather while facing a slew of bad QBs, including Brady Cook, Quinn Ewers, and Jarrett Stidham.
They'll have a much tougher time containing Darnold, who was named a Pro Bowler for the second straight year.
Sam Darnold Super Bowl same-game parlay
Darnold threw for three touchdowns in the NFC Conference Championship Game, and the Pats have allowed 27 passing touchdowns compared to just 11 TDs on the ground.
Even if the Seahawks rely on their aerial attack, they'll want to get the ball into the hands of Kenneth Walker III. He's cleared this number in four of his last five games, and New England was 27th in the league in receptions allowed to RBs in the regular season.
