Superbowl XLVIII (2014) Betting Tips and Predictions

Superbowl XLVIII (2014) Betting Tips and Predictions, just 4 hours until the start of the self proclaimed 'greatest show on earth' from New York this year, the Seahawks and the Bronco's will battle it out to be this this years world champions, live on Channel 4 and Sky Sports here in the UK.  Our man with the plan is @DannyAction18 he gives his tips and predictions below-

Super Bowl Pick:

The best offense in the NFL faces the best defense in the NFL when the Denver Broncos play the Seattle Seahawks just outside New York City for the ultimate prize: A Super Bowl ring. I feel this small spread of Denver -2 is justified, as these teams are very even. I think the better play is on the total. The strength of the Seattle offense is their running game, headed by powerful back Marshawn Lynch. As they usually do, I expect the Seahawks to give Lynch a healthy dose of carries in an attempt to control the game. Unfortunately for them, the Denver run defense has been very stout, holding the San Diego Chargers to 65 yards rushing in the Divisional Round, and then holding the New England Patriots to just 64 yards rushing, one week after New England ran for over 200 yards. In the Passing game, the Seahawks typically do not have big plays because their receivers are more possession based, running routes through the middle of the field, not explosive athletes on the outside so, I expect Denver to stuff Seattle on the ground and limit any big plays downfield. On the other side of the ball, Seattle simply does not give up many points to anybody, and it is hard to see that changing in the biggest game of the year. Even if Denver is able to have success, their offense is predicated on short plays which result in long drives as the clock keeps ticking. In their two playoff games, the Broncos only punted the ball once, yet they were not able to score 30 points in either game due to the amount of time these drives took off the clock. The Super Bowl is the most important game not only for the players but for the coaches. The worst nightmare for them is to fall behind early and be forced to play catch-up. Therefore, I expect a conservative game plan from both coaches which should also lend itself to a low scoring game.
