2024 Super Bowl expert picks: 58 bets to make on Super Bowl 58, 49ers-Chiefs props, Taylor Swift-themed wagers

Ready or not, Super Bowl LVIII is rocketing towards us. As you likely know, the Super Bowl is one of the most wagered-on events that we have on the sporting calendar, and it’s expected to remain so, especially with this year’s game taking place in the betting capital of the world: Las Vegas. 

On top of your standard game-centric bets, sportsbooks often feature bets that have little (or nothing) to do with the actual contest, allowing everyone to get in on the action. If you are looking to place a wager or two for this game between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs, allow us to help you out.

CBS Sports staff props

Jared Dubin: 49ers to win first half, Chiefs to win the game (+525, Caesars). “The Chiefs haven’t led at halftime of any of their three Super Bowl appearances in this era (they were tied with the Niners and trailing both the Bucs and Eagles), so if you think the Chiefs will win, this is better value than just taking the money line.”

Eric Kernish: Team to score the longest touchdown: 49ers (-142, FanDuel). “The San Francisco 49ers are all about racking up yards after the catch, so it only makes sense they’re the ones to pick for this prop. Expect this to occur in the first half … before Kyle Shanahan’s team likely disappears down the final stretch.”

Jordan Dajani: The Field Goal play (via Caesars): For first scoring play, a KC field goal and an SF field goal are both listed at +360. If you play, say, $20 on each option and one hits, you make $52 total.

Josh Edwards: Christian McCaffrey first touchdown scorer (+360, DraftKings). San Francisco has scored a touchdown on more than half of their first drives this season (10 of 19) while Kansas City has scored a touchdown on just 25% of their opening drives….
