BetUS.com have hundreds of Super Bowl player props for their patrons to pick from and that means that you should be able to find a betting angle that you find attractive.

If you're thinking about, chances are BetUS are too and they have everything from how many passing yards the quarterbacks will have to how many tackles the linebackers will make.

Keep checking their props section because the props manager is adding new Super Bowl 44 props every day.

Let’s look at the Peyton Manning Super Bowl Props.

Peyton Manning Total Passing Yards

Over 308½ Passing Yards -115
Under 308½ Passing Yards -115

This number is very doable for Manning, the Saints will defense will be out to blitz Manning and that hasn’t worked well in the past and I don’t see it working well here. Manning is excellent at reading and exploiting the opponents blitz packages. Still I am hesitant to take the over on a number so much higher than a player’s season average. Take the UNDER

Peyton Manning Total Pass Attempts

Over 37½ Pass Attempts -115
Under 37½ Pass Attempts -115

If we take away the final two games of the season and replace them with the playoff games, this number is low. Take the OVER

Peyton Manning Total Completions

Over 25½ Completions -120
Under 25½ Completions -110

This number is perfect, as a former props manager, I would commend my staff for being bang on the number. I’m going to lean towards the OVER here as I think we’ll see Manning avoiding the blitz so often that he’ll need to connect with a few extra short passes to put him over his average.

Peyton Manning Total TD Passes

Over 2½ TD Passes Even
Under 2½ TD Passes -140

I’ll take the OVER here, the Saints will score on the Colts but the Saints will be the ones playing catch-up all game long.

Peyton Manning Total Rushing Attempts

Over 1½ Rushing Attempts +130
Under 1½ Rushing Attempts -170

Something to remember when you are betting on a quarterbacks rushing attempts, kneel downs count as a rushing attempt. So if Colt are winning and have possession with under 2 minutes remaining, we could see a couple of knee downs. If you think the Colts will win, bet the OVER, if you like the Saints bet the UNDER.

Peyton Manning 1st Rushing Attempt

Over ½ Yards +220
Under ½ Yards -300

-300 is a lot of NFL moneyline to lay on a prop but there is an excellent chance of that side coming through. As I mentioned above if Manning takes a knee not only will it count as a rushing attempt, it will also count for -½ a yard. I don’t see Manning rushing the ball before the end of the game. Take the UNDER

What will happen first for Peyton Manning?

Throw a TD Pass -300
Throw an Interception +220

Again, I don’t like betting props where I have to lay a huge number but I might put a couple of bucks on the dog here. If the Colts come out as they did against the Jets, Darren Sharper could take a pass away.

Will Peyton Manning Throw an Interception?

Yes -140
No +110

The Saints are a big play defense, they won’t stuff a team but the secondary will snag a ball or two. Manning will throw an interception, maybe two.
