BRENDA Warner is hardly the attention grabber she once was. Once her husband, Kurt, left the Greatest Show on Turf in St. Louis, she became a memory – for the most part. She certainly is not the first-row sitting, camera-ready superfan she was with the Rams, let’s put it that way.
Think about it. When Kurt played for the Giants, do you remember seeing her once at the Meadowlands?
With all that said, the Super Bowl – as we’ve come to know it – is about crowd shots, right? How many times did the camera land in the Manning Family box last year?
Knowing that, we will open our proposition sheet this year with Mrs. Warner, and her over-under on in-game camera shots. The Vegas total is three (-110), and we believe that’s a good choice for the over. If Warner dominates the game, you will see at least five. If he gets hurt, you probably will get four. Worst case, you’re probably looking at a push.
Now that we have got family business settled, let’s focus on the game:
Total points by Pittsburgh: Under 27 (-110)
We believe in the overall under today, so we will triple up on the team totals as well. With ball possession, and a grind-it-out approach for Pittsburgh, we’re looking at three field goals, two touchdowns and a safety.
Total points by Arizona: Under 20 (-110)
Little concerned about the back door swinging open with Warner and Larry Fitzgerald fighting for pride in the fourth quarter, but here’s hoping the Steelers’ defense stands tall in that spot, like it did vs. Baltimore. No No. 1-rated defense (in a full season) has lost a Super Bowl, and we see this unit allowing one touchdown, and two field goals.
Special point spread: Pittsburgh -10 (+150)
We’re seeing 25-13 Steelers, so we might as well grab the extra value, and – like we said – hope that back door is locked.
Any score in the last 2 minutes of the first half? No (+210)
Could easily get burned – both teams have good kickers – but the value is too good to pass up.
Will there be a safety? Yes (+800)
If the Steelers’ punting game is effective, expect some long fields for Warner. And as we all know, he’s not fleet of foot. Look for a Troy Polamalu blitz in the end zone. If not, taking an 8-1 loss here will not hurt.
Player to score first TD: Heath Miller 12-1
Miller, for someone on the field as much as he is, has great value, has reliable hands, and probably will get a look in the end zone.
Player to score first TD: Tim Hightower 9-1
We play both sides of this bet every year, because the odds are great and the loss is minimal. We love Hightower’s nose for the goal line, and his legs never stop moving. At 9-1, we will take that combo.
Total receptions by Tim Hightower: Over 1 (+105)
We already have discussed Hightower, an easy dump-off option for Warner. He should get at least three looks today. Just like Brenda Warner.
