NFL Super Bowl LX Betting Preview
We have finally reached the end of the NFL season with Super Bowl LX taking place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara when the Seattle Seahawks take on the New England Patriots.
These two met in Super Bowl XLIX when the Patriots won 28-24 after the Seahawks opted to throw a pass a yard from the endzone instead of handing it off the Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch to barge his way over.
Lynch was very difficult to stop and if the Seahawks had gone with that play, Lynch would probably have scored, but they threw a pass and it got intercepted and the Patriots won the Super Bowl - will we get anything as exciting this time around?
In the Championship Games, our NFL tipster
Dave Kuzio
picked both winners - granted it was just a double but a win is a win when it comes to sports betting.
New England Patriots Vs Seattle Seahawks - Super Bowl LX - Sunday 23:30 GMT
This is the game we have all been waiting for. The Super Bowl for the famous Vince Lombardi Trophy. The Patriots have won this trophy six times, but they have not won it since Tom Brady and Bill Belichick left the franchise. The Seahawks have only won the Super Bowl once and that was in Super Bowl XLVIII when they beat the Denver Broncos 43-8.
I mentioned Tom Brady. He is still a legend amongst the Pats fans and anyone who comes in as the starting quarterback will always be in his shadow. However, it looks like Drake Maye is doing his best to shake off that shadow.
Maye has been exceptional this season. He has thrown for 4394 yards with 32 touchdown passes. He has only been picked off eight times, but he has been sacked 47 times. That is a concern. The Seahawks pride themselves on their defence, and if they can break through the offensive line then M<aye could be in trouble. He will need a lot of help from his team-mates in the early stages.
All eyes will be on Maye, but they will also be on the Seattle QB Sam Darnold. He is another player who has not had an easy ride in the NFL. He has managed to get his head down and has been a great asset for the Seahawks.
Darnold has thrown for 4048 yards with 25 touchdown passes. He has been sacked 27 times and picked off 14 times, so again he will need a lot of help from his O Line to get the ball up field.
I am well aware it is not always about the quarterback when it comes to the Super Bowl, but they do play an important role. When a team wins, it is usually because the QB has set the platform for the game - so that is what I will focus on.
I am still unsure whether Maye or Darnold will become great quarterbacks in the NFL, but they are in the big game and they have the opportunity to prove a lot of people wrong.
I am going to go with Darnold and the Seahawks to win Super Bowl LX. I am just concerned about the number of times Maye has been sacked this season. If the Seahawks defence breaks through and pressures him from the off, it could be a long night for him and the Patriots.
I am going with Seattle to win the game with Darnold getting the MVP award for the best player on the field.
