I was searching for some Santonio love. I didn't see it if it's there.

I plan to make the following bets:

Tease Steelers plus over (Steelers -1 and 40.5 over)
Tease Steelers plus under (Steelers -1 and 52.5 under)
Tease Cards plus over (Cards +13 and 40.5 over)
Tease Cards plus under (Cards +13 and 52.5 under)

Cards moneyline +$210

I think it will be a close game and by doing those teases it creates a 12 point window where the Steelers can win by 2 to 12 points and the total score can fall between 41 and 52 points. If the final score falls within those windows - then I win all four teaser bets. I want to point out that this strategy worked two years ago when the Colts played the Bears.

You are guaranteed to win at least one of the four bets and half the time you win two (making it basically a no bet - just juice). Taking the Cardinals and the moneyline is insurance to basically eliminate the risk involved with an Arizona victory.

I also plan to take heads in the coin toss and take Kurt Warner (-24 yards) to have more passing yards than Big Ben.

The rest of you are amateurs

Shame.

You people know nothing about the real soul of the game - betting

Care to tell us how much you raked in on this?

I predict people will start slurping Roethlisberger now.

TheSportsPredictor · Feb 1, 2009

Gary Russell is my new hero. First TD of the game at 15/1 odds, and he wins me a prop bet with the longest kickoff return of the game.

Oh, and I took the field to catch the first pass of the game at 10/1 because the book I used didn't have Hines Ward listed. Thank you, Hines Ward!

In my head:

Pittsburgh 30, Arizona 17
The Cardinals get off to a hot start courtesy of Kurt Warner to Larry Fitzgerald and lead 17-3 early in the second quarter. However, the Steelers get on track, the defense starts getting to Warner and the Steelers rattle off 27 unanswered points. Troy Polamalu wins the Super Bowl MVP award with 11 tackles, a sack, an interception and incredible intimidation of Arizona's receivers.

In my heart:

Arizona 24, Pittsburgh 20
The Cardinals set the tone with their first possession, surprisingly turning to Edgerrin James, who runs eight times for 40 yards, culminating in a four-yard scoring pass from Warner to Fitzgerald. Pittsburgh answers back, but the Cardinals have gotten into Pittsburgh's head with their surprising run prowess. Warner then does the rest, finishing the day with three touchdowns, 357 passing yards and a Super Bowl MVP trophy in Arizona's shocking victory.

I think it goes the other way: Steelers 24, Cardinals 20. It'll be a close one, but Roethlisberger rules at the end.
Steelers win, but don't cover.

In the running for most boring Super Bowl ever.

Yeah, one of the most boring Super Bowls ever!

The Good Doctor · Feb 2, 2009

I knew one of three people would bump that. Thanks for proving me right, Oz.

Oz · Feb 2, 2009

You're welcome. Just glad you were wrong, because we've gotten great Super Bowls to watch in back-to-back years. Very, very glad this was nowhere near as brutal to watch as the Steelers-Seahawks game, even with all the flags tonight.

Is it too late to get in on this? I'm feeling Pittsburgh 27, Arizona 23.
