Larry Fitzgerald Prop Bets for Super Bowl XLIII

Total Receiving Yards over/under 95.5: In the three post season games this season Fitzgerald has been phenomenal averaging 139 receiving yards per game. In the Cardinals last five games he has crossed the current line (95.5) every game.

Total Receptions over/under 6.5: During the playoffs Fitzgerald averaged 7.6 receptions a game. During the last 9 games Fitzgerald averaged 5.7 receptions a game crossing the odds makers line (6.5) only 2 times. Ironically it was his last two games which is fresh in the betting public’s minds

Longest Reception of the Game 35.5: During the playoffs Fitzgerald easily covered the current line of 35.5 in all three games, with receptions of62, 41 and 42 yards. In the last nine games Fitzgerald has covered the 35.5 in every game but three including 5 straight games.

Things to Consider: In the AFC Championship game the Ravens behind rookie Quarterback Joe Flaco was only able to manage 115 yards passing for the entire game. Mark Clayton led the Ravens with 38 yards receiving and tight end Todd Heap had a 24 yard reception. The Ravens wide receivers combined for 6 catches and 61 yards receiving. In the 2nd round of the playoffs the Steelers were able to contain San Diego’s wide receivers but did give up 91 yards receiving to the Chargers tailback Sproles. Phillip Rivers passed for 308 yards and found wideout Chris Chambers 4 times for 72 yds. Vincent Jackson did have a 41 yard reception. Which is higher that the odds makers number that is assigned to Fitzgerald. During the playoffs the Steelers didn’t give up 95.5 yds receiving or 6.5 catches. The last time a wide receiver reached those numbers against the Steelers was………

Week 10 Steelers vs. Colts Reggie Wayne 113 yards receiving
