Cam Newton leads marvellous Super Bowl MVP betting

Despite averaging just 199 passing yards in his two postseason outings, Manning looks poised to return to the form that enabled him to throw for over 250 yards on six occasions this season, moving the betting line on his total passing yards to 235.5, with 20/23 odds tagged to both the OVER and UNDER.

The betting line on Newton’s total passing yards is pegged at 238.5, but Manning is an intriguing +11.5 in quarterback passing yards match betting against Newton, and an 8/13 favourite to complete more passes than his opponent.

Receiving and rushing props betting

Panthers tight end Greg Olsen leads the way as 11/4 chalk to tally the most receiving yards at Super Bowl 50, followed by Broncos’ Emmanuel Sanders at 3/1, and DeMaryius Thomas at 10/3.

Carolina’s Jonathan Stewart is an even money bet to pile up the most rushing yards, followed by Broncos’ CJ Anderson at 7/4, while Newton trails at an attractive 6/1.

While, the hundreds of Super Bowl props bets available at Coral focus on the action on the gridiron, some of the most popular betting options focus on pre-game and post-game activities.

Pre-game and post-game Super Bowl props bets

Both the Panthers and Broncos sport 10/11 odds of winning the pre-game coin toss in this week’s only true 50/50 proposition.

Carolina won the toss in their only previous Super Bowl appearance back in 2004, while the coin has been kind to Denver just twice in their seven previous appearances in the big game, with the club failing to win the toss in either of their victories at Super Bowl XXXII and XXXIII.

Lady Gaga will sing The Star Spangled Banner at Super Bowl 50, following in the footsteps of divas like Christina Aguilera and Renee Fleming.

Singers have belted out the American national anthem in over 130 seconds just twice in the past 10 years, however the betting line on the length of the recent Golden Globe winner’s rendition is pegged at 137.5, with the UNDER favoured with 8/11 odds.

Strong 7/4 odds say that this year’s Super Bowl MVP will thank his teammates first, with 8/1 odds that he will give the first nod to fans, and 11/5 odds that he will first thank God.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is a distant 50/1 bet of being recognized first, while the odds of the MVP thanking himself first are a long 150/1.
