What's The Spread On The Super Bowl Game Tomorrow



2021 Super Bowl Odds Vegas Super Bowl LV Odds, Current Lines & Prop Bets. Super Bowl 55 and the 2020/21 season will be one that we will not forget any time soon, with the pandemic leaving NFL stadiums empty across the nation, the re-seducing of games weekly and a impact to each and every one of us, and that is before the final chapter plays out on February 7th when the raining champion Patrick.

After starting 11-0, the Steelers floundered and dropped five of their last six games, including the Wild Card game against the Cleveland Browns. Mike Tomlin is heralded as the ultimate players’ coach and has seen more success than almost any coach his age, but the recent failings of the Steelers at the end of seasons and in the playoffs has become an issue that can no longer be ignored. The band plans to run it back one more year after it was announced that Ben Roethlisberger restructured his deal for one more year with the Steelers.

  1. Super Bowl Odds For The Buccaneers. Tom Brady had three touchdown passes in the first half and looked horrific in the second half. However, he is 43 years old and has two weeks to prepare for the biggest game of his life. It has been Super Bowl or bust all year, they now have their shot. The Packers were the best team all season long in the NFC.
  2. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if the Steelers (-210) were favored against the Washington Football Team (+150) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Steelers to win would win just $4.76.

Defensive stars Bud Dupree and Avery Williamson (led the NFL in tackles) are set to become unrestricted free agents, but defensive talent in Pittsburgh usually stays in Pittsburgh. Longtime star center Maurkice Pouncey announced his retirement from the NFL, taking one of Pittsburgh’s leaders out of the locker room. There’s plenty of young talent in town, namely rookie Kevin Dotson and T.J. Watt, but the Steelers have plenty to address this offseason.

Steelers prop bets

Prop bets are based on individual performance, typically surrounding players. The Steelers’ receiving corps was a popular target for prop betting this season, especially standout rookie Chase Claypool. For example, Claypool’s projected receiving total against the Cowboys was slated for 40.5 yards. Those who thought Claypool would total 41 or more receiving yards would bet the over while those who thought he would fail to reach 41 yards would take the under. That game, he was able to haul in 69 yards, giving over bettors the win.

Steelers futures odds

Futures are long-term bets that can range from an offseason to a full season (or beyond). Team win totals, award winners, and player performance are common futures. For example:

2020 Odds to win NFL OROY

  • Joe Burrow +220
  • Tua Tagovailoa +290
  • Clyde Edwards-Helarie +500
  • Justin Herbert +1200

This line for the Offensive Rookie of the Year would often be bet before the season starts. Futures allow for bettors to capitalize on players they think are favorites to win awards long before the odds shift away from their favor. For example, Herbert opened with odds of +1200 to win the OROY award after the NFL Draft; his odds shifted and he eventually won the award in December.

Steelers Super Bowl LVI odds

The Pittsburgh Steelers opened with +3000 odds to win Super Bowl LVI after fizzling out in 2020. Those odds are third in the AFC North and sit around teams like the Patriots, Vikings, and Chargers.

Steelers AFC North odds

The Pittsburgh Steelers clinched the AFC North title in 2020– their fourth in seven seasons and 23rd overall.

How to bet on the Pittsburgh Steelers

Moneyline

The moneyline is the simplest of bets, decided by the straight-up winner and loser of each game. Consider the following example:

  • Steelers -185
  • Panthers +310

The Steelers are considered heavy favorites in this matchup (indicated by -185), requiring a $185 bet to win $100 (plus the initial bet back). The Panthers are the underdog in this matchup, paying out $410 total for a $100 bet ($310 in winnings). How much either team wins or loses by does not matter in moneyline betting, the payout remains the same.

Point spread

Betting on the point spread is determinant on how many points a team wins or loses by. Take the following example:

  • Steelers -3.5 (-110)
  • Giants +6.5 (-110)

In this example, Pittsburgh is favored by 3.5 points, indicated by “-3.5.” If the Steelers win the game 24-20, the Steelers (-3.5) win the bet and would have a total payout of $19.09 on a $10 bet ($9.09 in profit). If the Giants keep the game within four and lose 34-31, the Giants (+3.5) would win, and the payout would be the same as listed above.

Point total (over/under)

The point total refers to the over/under line set by books. This number projects the total number of points scored in a game and, like prop betting, is bet whether one thinks the score will go over or under the set point total. For example, the Steelers’ Week 7 matchup with the Titans had a point total of 53.5 points. Pittsburgh won that game 27-24, resulting in 51 total points. Those who bet the over that game would have cashed out.

Pittsburgh fielded one of the toughest defenses in the NFL in 2020 and return most of that defense into 2021. Low opposing point totals coupled with a struggling second-half Steelers defenses resulted in lower projected point totals during the season. Unless the Steelers land a big playmaker in the NFL Draft or in free agency, it’s likely that their 2021 season point totals will remain low.

In-play and live betting

Sometimes, the most thrilling and rewarding bets are bets made while games are being played. These are referred to as live bets or in-play bets. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if the Steelers (-210) were favored against the Washington Football Team (+150) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Steelers to win would win just $4.76.

However, say the Steelers fell to a big 21-3 deficit in the first half despite controlling the overall game (due to a costly turnover or special teams gaffe). Odds may swing in favor of the Football Team, who may be a -110 favorite at halftime. Taking the Steelers to come back and win the game could present plus-odds (say, +130). Should a bettor take Pittsburgh (+130) at halftime and the Steelers pull off the comeback, winners would win $13 instead of $4.76 (plus the initial $10 bet).

This could also be an effective way to “hedge” your bet; say a bettor took Washington (+190) in that game, but Pittsburgh jumps out to a 10-0 first quarter lead and is controlling the overall feel of the game, bettors could hedge by throwing some money down on Pittsburgh (-250) to return some of the inevitably-lost bet.

What

Parlays and teasers

You can always string bets together in the form of parlays or teasers. Usually during busy Sundays, bettors can parlay several teams to win or cover against the spread and if all bets are successful, the payouts are multiplied. Teasers function similarly, except they allow bettors to move each point spread to a more favorable line in exchange for diminished odds.

Steelers 2020 recap

Record: 12-4

Record ATS: 10-6

Over/under record: 7-7-2

A 12-4 mark, on the surface, would look like a majorly successful season. They finished fifth in points allowed per game (21.2) and made the playoffs. However, a Wild Card loss to “little brother” Cleveland and a 1-5 record to finish out the season sours the season. The offense was riddled with an absence of a run game and Ben Roethlisberger ranked among the worst in yards per pass attempt on the season (6.4). It was a tough season to endure for Steelers fans after being elated for the first 11 games.

Despite the struggles, the Steelers routinely covered point spreads, finishing third in record against the spread. Their record against the over/under is a different story, as Pittsburgh was one of seven teams to finish exactly 0.500 against the point total (the only one to push twice). Their games fluctuated wildly between 19-14 finishes with the Ravens’ backup squad and 48-37 barnburners against the Browns.

Steelers 2021 offseason moves

Key free agents: Bud Dupree (LB), Alejandro Villanueva (LT), Matt Fieler (RT), JuJu Smith-Schuster (WR), James Conner (RB), Cameron Sutton (CB)

Draft pick position needs: OT, CB, RB, DL

What

Bud Dupree is the most expensive free agent upcoming for the Steelers ($15.3 million guaranteed) and it’s expected that the 28 year old linebacker will part with the team. Also in danger of leaving for elsewhere are both starting tackles, which would leave the Steelers with just two starting offensive linemen from 2020. Free agency will likely be the focus to replenish their offensive line before turning to the Draft.

With such a high need for linemen (specifically tackles), the Steelers will likely use their first-round pick to target one. Players like Notre Dame’s Liam Eichenburg and Oklahoma State’s Teven Jenkins are often mocked to the Steelers in that spot. Other names to keep an eye include Alabama running back Najee Harris and North Carolina’s Javonte Williams. The Steelers haven’t drafted an offensive player in the first round since 2012 (guard David DeCastro) nor a skill player since 2008 (Rashard Mendenhall).

Buccaneers at Packers: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 27, Buccaneers 24

Money line (?)

AVOID. This could come down to who has the ball last. If you strongly believe the Packers are going to win, you can back them at -190, which is a little high for my liking. I’m PASSING and taking the points as long as I can get the hook – ½ point – with the Bucs.

How Many People Watch The Super Bowl

Against the spread (?)

TAMPA BAY +3.5 (-110) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1½ times your usual wager. If the line drops to 3 or lower, BACK THE PACK.

Over/Under (?)

The Super Bowl Wikipedia

Back the UNDER 51.5 (-105) for a HALF-UNIT. I’m backing the defenses despite the offensive numbers leaning toward the Over. The Packers averaged 38.1 points per game to rank first and 389.0 yards per game to rank fifth in the regular season. The Bucs were third in scoring at 30.8 PPG and seventh at 384.1 YPG.

Defensively, Green Bay allowed 334.0 YPG to rank ninth, and hasn’t allowed more than 18 points in four straight games. Tampa Bay yielded 327.1 YPG to rank sixth and features the NFL’s best rushing defense, allowing just 80.6 YPG.

Snow flurries are in the forecast with temperatures in the 20’s, but the wind isn’t expected to be a factor.
