The NFL pre-season is already underway as of this posting, and the regular season starts in less than a month. If you have confidence in your favorite team, now is the time to put a small wager on them to win Super Bowl LIII, because futures bets pay out really really well. Just like last year, I have a little game of Super Bowl Pick’em for all of you to participate in. Pick well and you can bring home some big bucks!
Pick the Winner for Super Bowl LIII (Sunday Feb. 3, 2019)
Comment at the bottom of this post and let me know who you think will win Super Bowl 53. If you make the right choice, you will be entered into a drawing for cold hard cash.
Riskier Pick? Better Reward!
The New England Patriots are the betting favorites. Again. To keep everyone from picking them or last season’s champs, the Philadelphia Eagles, you can win a better prize if you go with a different team or group of teams. It sounds complicated, but its not. View the choices and prize pools below and then post a comment with who you want to go with this year, and why.
Possible Winners and Prize Pools
Comment below and make one choice! Each team or group of teams will have their own prize pool.
New England Patriots — $100 Prize Pool
Los Angeles Rams — $125 Prize Pool
Eagles, Vikings, Steelers or Packers — $150 Prize Pool
Saints, Falcons, Jaguars — $175 Prize Pool
Any other Team — $200 Prize Pool
So, if you think the Eagles will win, comment below with your pick and you will be in the Eagles, Vikings, Steelers, Packers prize pool. If you think the Houston Texans are going to have a stellar year and bring home the Lombardi trophy, then you would be in the “Any Other Team” pool. Make sense?
Make sure your name is in the hat! Here’s the google spreadsheet entry list. Please email me if you have commented below, but don’t see your entry. Super Bowl 53 Drawing “Hat”
The Method Behind the Madness…
I created the lists of teams and prize pool by following the futures betting payouts on Bovada (USA Residents) and Intertops (Rest of the World). Here are screenshots from their NFL Super Bowl futures section.

Intertops (Accepts Players from All Over!)

The Rams are a great choice, FunSeeker. I think its going to come down to the Rams, Chiefs or Patriots. We shall see!
weeeee, now your comment has made my weekend! I sure hope so! GL to all contestants!
patriots will win!!!
You might be right Jacob. They’re always in the hunt. I’m just not a fan of them myself. :) – I think you are the only one to pick the Patriots. So, looks like you might have the prize pool all to yourself with some good fortune for your team.
I’m going to go with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Got you down for the Steelers, DJ. Good luck!
Kansas city Chiefs!!!!
Good pick in my opinion. Good luck!
