Super Bowl 60 in San Francisco, CA has storylines galore on both sides for both the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.
For the Seahawks, the journey that starting QB Sam Darnold has been on throughout his career and what led him to Seattle, is certainly at the top of the list. Other popular topics of discussion will be the dominance of the Seattle defense, as well as the “12th man” also known as the home field advantage that the Seattle fanbase gives the team, particularly in the two games so far this postseason.
A Jaxon Smith-Njigba anytime TD could be the bet to make for Super Bowl 60
And how about the Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba? Smith-Njigba aka “JSN” has been the heart and soul of this Seahawks offense throughout this entire NFL season. He’s a secret weapon that is no longer a secret. One thing you can bet on, is for the star WR to fill up the stat sheet each and every time the Seahawks take the field.
Lets look back on the tremendous year that Jaxon Smith-Njigba had:
-
Receiving Yards: 1,793 (1st)
-
Receptions: 119 (3rd)
-
Receiving Touchdowns: 10 (4th)
-
Targets: 163 (4th)
-
Yards Per Reception: 15.1 (9th)
-
Explosive Plays (20+ Yards): 27 (4th)
-
PFF Receiving Grade: 93.1 (2nd)
All of these stats and rankings produced by JSN are impressive, but the most impressive? In the NFC Championship game with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line, Smith-Njigba balled out. The star receiver finished the game with 10 catches for 153 yards and a TD, which came when the Seahawks were trailing the Rams 13-10 late in the first half. The score put the Seahawks up in the game and they never trailed again.
In both of Seattle’s playoff wins so far this postseason, Smith-Njigba has recorded a touchdown. For Super Bowl 60, why should we expect this trend to change? We probably shouldn’t, which is why betting on an anytime TD from Smith-Njigba (-105) in the Big Game could prove to be money well spent.
As more bets continue to pour in from now until kickoff, the odds will shift further away from your favor. While the betting odds for a Smith-Njigba anytime TD (-105) don’t jump off the page, sometimes the best bets are the most simple/obvious ones. It is priced accordingly, and odds will only move further away as time passes.
Expect Smith-Njigba to fill up the stat sheet as he has done all season long and find the endzone at least once in the upcoming Super Bowl 60 showdown between the Seahawks and the Patriots.
