Point-Spreads.com has been flooded with emails asking out NFL Picks Experts: Who will be the MVP of Super Bowl XLIII? Insiders have been following the early betting action all week which has shown that the public have been putting large sums of cash on picks for the two quarterbacks to win the MVP of Super Bowl XLIII.
Despite this fact, there are plenty of better value bets at Sportsbook.com that deserve taking a look at before Sunday. Here’s a look at the top MVP candidates for Super Bowl XLIII:
Ben Roethlisberger is +175 odds to become MVP of Super Bowl XLIII. Ben is the favorite to take the honor since he is the field general of the 7 point favorite Pittsburgh Steelers. Roethlisberger is looking to redeem himself after a dismal performance in Super Bowl XL against the Seahawks. I would pass on Ben to win the MVP since the odds are too short at +175 for my blood.
The aging Kurt Warner is +250 odds to win MVP honors in Super Bowl XLIII. Kurt has already claimed this honor back in 1999 when his Rams squad kept the Titans out of the end zone on the final play of Super Bowl XXXIV. Warner threw for 414 yards, 2 Touch Downs and ZERO interceptions. This is a small value bet at +250 odds.
The amazing wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald of the Arizona Cardinals is +500 odds to win MVP of Super Bowl XLIII . Larry is the hottest player heading into Tampa with 5 touch downs and averaging 139 yards in the air over the course of the last 3 NFL Playoff games. Fitzgerald is the key to a Cardinals upset win and offers a great value bet at +500 odds.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Willie Parker is listed at +750 odds to win the MVP honors in the 2009 Super Bowl at Sportsbook.com. Willie has been hot and cold throughout the Steelers NFL Playoff run this season. While averaging over 100 yards in their first two games of the NFL Playoffs this season, he was held in to 46 yards on the ground against the Ravens defense in the 2009 AFC Championship Game. I would pass on this prop bet because I don’t see the Steelers run game being the difference on Sunday.
Sportsbook.com has made Pittsburgh Steelers strong safety Troy Polamalu +1050 odds to win the MVP of Super Bowl XLIII. Polamalu is the player to watch when the Steelers are on defense. If you think the Pittsburgh defense will shut down Kurt Warner/Larry Fitzgerald air assault then you should grab the +1050 odds immediately because I expect these odds to be shortened closer to kick off.
Sportsbook.com has Edgerrin James, Santonio Holmes, Anquan Boldin and Hines Ward listed at +1500 odds to win the MVP for Super Bowl XLIII.
