Big Game betting preview

Drake Maye and Sam Darnold are both former No. 3 overall picks in the NFL Draft, but their careers have followed very different trajectories. Maye showed some immediate promise as a rookie and put himself into the NFL MVP conversation in his second season while Darnold struggled with the Jets, Panthers and 49ers before reinventing himself when he unexpectedly wound up as the starter in Minnesota.

Now both are starting quarterbacks in the Big Game and these are two of the most balanced teams in football. New England ranked second in the NFL in scoring this season and fourth in points allowed while Seattle ranked third and first in the same categories, respectively. The Patriots beat the Chargers, Texans and Broncos on their path to Santa Clara and the Seahawks bested the 49ers and Rams.

The latest NFL odds from DraftKings list Seattle as the 4.5-point favorite and the over/under has held steady at 45.5 points. There are also numerous NFL props available, including Jaxon Smith-Njigba receiving yards and Kenneth Walker rushing yards. Before you participate in any NFL betting for the Big Game, get $300 in bonus bets if your first wager of $5 or more is a winner:
