Marquez Valdes-Scantling 2023 Super Bowl prop bets

Receiving yards: UNDER 36.5 (-115)

MVS was a huge problem for the Cincinnati Bengals. He went for 116 yards on 8 targets (6 receptions). That was his best game of the season, and it was his first game topping 30 receiving yards since Week 13 against Cincinnati.

The Eagles have CB Darius Slay and CB James Bradberry. That’s a huge boost in starpower after taking on CB Eli Apple and rookie CB Cam Taylor-Britt.

MVS has gone Under this total in 6 of his last 7 games.

Take UNDER 36.5 (-115).

Receptions: OVER 2.5 (-120)

While MVS may go Under his yards prop, the target totals are there to assume he may see some involvement. He has seen at least 5 targets in 4 of his last 6 games. He has gone Over this total in 2 of his last 3 games and in 10 of the Chiefs’ 19 games this season.

While the Eagles should limit big play and have a solid defensive line, they still rank 11th in opponents’ completion percentage, so passes get to their receiver.

Considering that and that the Eagles will have bigger problems than to ensure MVS doesn’t beat them, back the Over 2.5 (-120).

Touchdown(s)

Anytime (+235) | 2+: (+2200) | 3+: (+10000)

PASS.

Although MVS has been able to score in each of the last 2 games (making his only reception the score against the Jags), he had 2 touchdowns throughout the entire regular season, so his red zone usage really isn’t that high.

The Eagles have one of the best cornerback duos in the league and should be able to limit what the Chiefs do in the red zone. MVS likely won’t get in the end zone, and at (+235), the risk isn’t worth the payout.

Receiving yards

50+: (+135) | 75+: (+425) | 100+: (+1100)

There’s value at 75+ (+425). I’m even willing to make a small wager on 100+ (+1100) given the value. Avoid that odd 30-60 middle ground to either bank on a breakout performance or a weak one from the receiver.

Valdes-Scantling had a huge game against the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC Championship Game, finishing with 116 receiving yards, including a TD, on 6 receptions.
