Super Bowl 60 presents myriad better opportunities, and one of the more unique angles is the opportunity to bet Seahawks-Patriots against or combined with other sporting events happening around the same time.
The NBA slate has four games on Sunday — all tipping off prior to the Super Bowl — and our experts have found two angles where they're looking at NBA props against Super Bowl props.
Additionally, NASCAR's version of the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, gets going one week from now, next Sunday, and one of our experts has a parlay angle combining an anytime touchdown edge on Sunday with a prop from NASCAR's big race.
Here are our favorite Super Bowl cross-sport props.
Super Bowl Cross-Sport Props
Sam Darnold Pass Attempts vs. Brandon Ingram PRA
Pacers vs. Raptors, Sunday at 3 p.m. ET
By Joe Dellera
Brandon Ingram absolutely destroys the Indiana Pacers and this is a great spot to bet on him and against Sam Darnold. While Darnold can excel, he has 17 and 36 passing attempts in two playoff games and averaged 28 this regular season with a high of 44 and a median output of 27.
Ingram averages 27.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game against Indiana over the last four seasons. The Pacers stay home and play single coverage, which is an area that Ingram destroys.
This is an average of 37.9 PRA, and Darnold only exceeded that in pass attempts in one game this season.
Pick: Brandon Ingram Points + Rebounds + Assists over Sam Darnold Pass Attempts
TreVeyon Henderson Rushing + Receiving Yards vs. Pascal Siakam PRA
Pacers vs. Raptors, Sunday at 3 p.m. ET
This is not a Rhamondre Stevenson game whereas Denver was. Against the Broncos, the Patriots could run traditionally and had to win the turnover battle, where Stevenson doesn't fumble.
Then there was weather, and anything that resembled explosiveness became a non-factor.
The game script has to be different vs. Seattle. Running right at Byron Murphy is a death sentence and the Pats' best bet to kick it out on toss plays is with the guy who has elite speed. I think TreVeyon Henderson will be more involved in the run game, and then I think both backs will be used to mitigate the pass rush in the receiving game.
Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has shown a propensity to lean on these X-factor backs in past Super Bowls as well, think James White/Shane Vereen.
Pascal Siakam, on the other hand, has a much lower ceiling than Henderson does and we've seen him struggle against the Raptors in the past. This matchup is not always a layup for him as he's had 25 or less PRA vs. Toronto in their last five meetings.
Pick: TreVeyon Henderson Rushing + Receiving Yards over Pascal Siakam Points + Rebounds + Assists
Super Bowl 60 / Daytona 500 Parlay
Daytona 500, Sunday, Feb. 15, 2:30 p.m. ET
By Nick Giffen
The fun thing about cross-sport props is you can sweat them regardless of what happens in the Super Bowl, because ordinarily we'd have something like "what will be greater, Rhamondre Stevenson Longest Rush or Austin Cindric Daytona 500 Laps Led," so no matter Stevenson's outcome there would still be a sweat.
Unfortunately with that not being the case, I've made up my own parlay which won't guarantee us a sweat for the Daytona 500. But if the first leg hits … watch out, we'll have a fun sweat in one week's time.
For my Super Bowl leg, I'm going to roll with AJ Barner to have an anytime TD at +240 odds at FanDuel. It's the No. 2 anytime TD edge, according to our Action PRO projections, and if you want to spice it up I especially like his second half (+500) or third quarter (+1200) anytime TD. More than 38% of his targets and half of his TDs have come in the third quarter, and more than 60% of his targets and all but one TD this year have been in the second half (which includes any potential overtime).
Should that hit, we have a fun sweat and I'm backing Todd Gilliland for a Top-5 Finish in the Daytona 500.
Gilly, a second-generation driver for Front Row Motorsports, has show the ability to get out front at drafting races, where the field is bunched together through engine and aerodynamics rules. He's led multiple laps in six of the last 12 drafting race, including 16 in the 2024 Daytona 500.
Should he avoid "the Big One" … the massive crash — or crashes — that seems almost inevitable at the Daytona 500, he's a strong candidate to be toward the front, jockeying for position not only for a top-5 finish, but maybe even his first NASCAR Cup Series win.
