2022 Super Bowl odds, Rams vs. Bengals prop bets: NFL model picks over 1.5 touchdowns for Matthew Stafford
Written by ABC AUDIO ALL RIGHTS RESERVED on February 4, 2022
Matthew Stafford spent the first 12 seasons of his NFL career with the Detroit Lions, but after a blockbuster trade to the Los Angeles Rams during the offseason, the former No. 1 overall pick is realizing his potential. He’s led the Rams all the way to the 2022 Super Bowl, which will be played at the Rams’ home stadium against the Cincinnati Bengals. Stafford has been dynamic so far this postseason, throwing for 905 yards and six touchdowns with just one interception on the march to Super Bowl 56.
The latest 2022 Super Bowl odds from Caesars Sportsbook feature several ways you can bet on Stafford’s performance on Super Bowl Sunday 2022, including NFL prop bets on his longest completion (over-under 38.5 yards) and whether he’ll score a rushing or receiving touchdown (+800). Before making any Super Bowl 56 prop picks, be sure to see the Stafford prop predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.
The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up over $7,500 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception six-plus years ago. The model enters Super Bowl 2022 on an incredible 137-97 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. Amazingly, it hasn’t missed a top-rated pick since Week 14 of the regular season.

With the 2022 Super Bowl scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 13, the model has evaluated the latest Matthew Stafford props from Caesars Sportsbook and revealed its best bets.
Top Matthew Stafford prop picks for Bengals vs. Rams
One of the Super Bowl 2022 bets the model recommends: Stafford goes over 1.5 passing touchdowns. In Stafford’s first season with the Rams, he threw for 4,886 yards and tied a career-high with 41 touchdown passes. Over the last two weeks, he’s thrown for 703 yards and four touchdowns with just one interception.
The 33-year-old has now thrown for multiple touchdown passes in nine of his last 10 games counting the regular season and the 2022 NFL playoffs. For the season, he’s thrown for at least two scores in 16 of the 20 games he’s played, so he’s a solid bet to do it again for a -220 payout at Super Bowl 2022, especially against a Bengals pass defense that ranked 26th in the NFL.
Cincinnati has given up multiple passing touchdowns in four of its last six games, including three last week to Patrick Mahomes in the 2022 AFC Championship Game. That’s a big reason why the model is predicting that Stafford throws for 1.9 touchdown passes on average in its 10,000 simulations of Super Bowl 56.
