We’ve seen two straight Super Bowl winners do so with a new quarterback: the Buccaneers (2020) and Rams (2021) both had title-ready rosters and a massive hole under center, and both won it all after getting their guy. I’m a big subscriber to the “one QB away” theory when it comes to betting title futures. That leaves this as the best matchup to target at a reasonable price, especially given that these two quarterbacks own six conference titles in the last six seasons. And while the Chiefs have the second-best odds in the AFC (+500), the favored Bills are clearly inflated across this market as easy public fodder. The Buccaneers are the clear favorites to emerge from the NFC (+325) with a similar core to the one that won it all in 2020. It’s famously hard to make it back the following year – but why not bet on an encore this season? Tom Brady during preseason action. We just saw this matchup play out two years ago in one of the most anticipated quarterback clashes in Super Bowl history.

With that in mind, here are our three favorite exact Super Bowl matchups to bet at BetMGM ahead of the 2022 season:

What would this year’s Super Bowl matchup look like if, say, defenses reigned supreme? What if young QBs finally seized the day, or the league’s top rushers became the biggest X-factors? That said, if you’re looking to dabble in this market, it helps to think of correlations. This market is essentially just a parlay on two conference title futures, which are hard enough to hit in their own right. That’s much easier said than done: plenty of folks – myself included – picked the Rams to make it ahead of last season, but who expected the Bengals to be there? Even the matchup between the Chiefs and Buccaneers two years ago would have paid out nearly $3,000 on a $100 bet, even without betting on the ultimate winner. The payouts are enormous for those who can accurately predict both finalists for this year’s NFL championship. If you thought betting on the Super Bowl winner was hard enough, try betting on both sides.
