• Field Goal -105

Field Goal (-105)

Evan McPherson has been on fire this postseason. He’s hit all 12 of his field goal attempts and is 3-for-3 from 50+ yards out. He hit a 58-yard field goal in the regular season and was a combined 9-for-11 from 50+ yards in the regular season.

Matt Gay was 4-for-5 from 50+ in the regular season with a long of 55 yards but has missed his only 50+ yard attempt in the postseason.

It seems as if McPherson may have to carry these underdog odds.

Touchdown (-125)

The Cincinnati Bengals' longest touchdowns were 14 yards, 16 yards and 41 yards while allowing a long touchdown of 33 yards against the Tennessee Titans. A field goal has bene the longest score in all three of their postseason games.

The Los Angeles Rams’ longest touchdowns were 7 yards, 70 yards and and 16 yards while allowing a long touchdown of 55 yards. Those looking at Super Bowl LVI odds may be relying heavily on the Bengals if they bet on a field goal and the Rams if betting on a touchdown.

With big play makers like Odell Beckham Jr., Cooper Kupp, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd a field goal is the underdog. However, it may be the better bet, especially at a better price.
