They handle the football more than any other player on the field and direct their team’s offense, so it only makes sense that there are plenty of prop bet options for the quarterbacks. At BookMaker.eu fans can wager on whether or not Tom Brady and Jared Goff will throw a touchdown pass in any quarter. Head-to-head prop bets are also available, like which QB will throw the first scoring pass or interception.
On top of all that betting excitement, we have the basic wagering options that include an over/under on each quarterbacks yards, attempts, completions and touchdowns. Considering both the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams were among the best at scoring the football during the regular season, there will be plenty of excitement when the two quarterbacks stare each other down in Super Bowl LIII. Let’s analyze a few prop bets
Watch Super Bowl LIII live on Sunday, February 3, 2019 at 6:30 p.m. ET from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The game will be televised on CBS.
Super Bowl LIII Quarterback Prop Bets Odds at BookMaker.eu
Tom Brady Total Passing Yards
Over 291.5 ( -153 )
Under 291.5 ( +117 )
The number is high and a lot depends, as it does for any prop, how the game unfolds. But Brady lives for the spotlight with some of his best passing yardage games taking place during the postseason. You might recall he set a Super Bowl record with 505 yards against the Eagles last year and he’s averaging 433 yards in his last three Super Bowls with a low of 328.
Brady’s 272.2 passing yards per game during the regular season were his lowest in four years, sparking some critics to claim he and the Pats were done. That just lit a fire under Brady and he’s been lights out during the playoffs, throwing for 343 yards against the Chargers and 348 yards to beat the Chiefs. He’s now thrown for at least 290 yards in seven straight postseason games and 10 of his last 11.
Prediction: Over ( -153 )
Jared Goff Total Pass Attempts
Over 36.5 ( -141 )
Under 36.5 ( +112 )
Goff attempted just over 35 passes per game on average during the regular season. However, a closer looks shows us that when the Rams lost or were involved in a close encounter, that number was higher. Five times he threw more than 36 passes with those coming in the Rams three losses and narrow victories over Kansas City and Seattle.
We also saw Goff throw 40 passes in the NFC Championship in another tight contest when the running game sputtered. The Rams rely heavily on Todd Gurley to balance the offense and when he was ineffective against the Saints, Goff took over through the air. By his own admission Gurley played a sorry game in New Orleans and rode the pine for much of it. It’s also difficult to imagine his knee being an issue after he ran for 115 yards against the Cowboys in the Divisional Round. With Gurley and C.J. Anderson splitting the carries, I expect Goff to take fewer shots making the under a winner on this bet.
Prediction: Under ( +112 )
Which Quarterback will throw more Touchdown Passes?
Tom Brady ( -130 )
Jared Goff ( +100 )
For as many points as the Rams and Patriots have scored this postseason, the QBs have just two touchdown passes each in two games. That gives us a good idea of just how good the running games have been. It’s hard to bet against Brady in a game of this magnitude since he’s done it all before. He’s thrown at least one scoring pass in every Super Bowl he’s played with 11 in his last four Super Bowls and 18 total. So you can expect he’ll have at least one on Sunday and if you believe he can throw more there’s another prop bet available just for him.
Super Bowl jitters didn’t bother Nick Foles last season as he threw three touchdown passes in Philadelphia’s win over the Pats. The previous year it was Matt Ryan making his first Super Bowl start tossing a pair of scoring pass with both players matching Brady’s output. And I certainly don’t expect Goff to be bothered by the bright lights. Even without Cooper Kupp, Goff has an abundance of playmakers in the lineup and he will connect on a few scoring passes, giving him the edge in this prop bet.
Prediction: Jared Goff ( +100 )
