When it comes to NFL gambling there is no single event that is better known than the Super Bowl and Super Bowl gambling. This is the game that some people wait all year to watch and a game that many people, who aren’t football fans, but watch only one game a year, wait to see. This year, which is like most years, both game itself and certainly the Super Bowl NFL gambling should be anything but spectacular. The Colts should dominate the game easy covering the spread and winning the first Super Bowl trophy for the city of Indy and for the great QB Peyton Manning. And once it’s all said and done, everyone will happy for Manning and it will remembered as yet another sub-par year for Super Bowl gambling, which seems to be the norm so it shouldn’t be too much a of let down for most fans.
But the reason that this Super Bowl gambling should be uneventful is the fact that the NFC, as it’s been for the past decade or so, is simply nowhere near as good as the AFC. In fact, there are probably about eight AFC teams that would win the Super bowl against the Bears. And so this Super Bowl, like so many others, and the Super Bowl gambling opportunities, seems more like a let down, or a consolation match, rather than the super match up it’s intended to be. But that’s life, and if that’s you’re biggest complaint, than things are pretty good.
And look on the bright side, we’ll all have great chance to see one of the greatest football players ever on the biggest stage in the land, even if the Super Bowl gambling prospects stink. Peyton Manning has waited nearly a decade for this moment and it looks as though he’s going finally get that ring that so eluded the great Dan Marino, whom, when it’s all said and done will likely lose all his passing records to Manning. And that’s a good thing for sports in general, a good thing for football, and maybe even a good thing for Super Bowl gambling.
