The Patriots and Seahawks will face off in Super Bowl 60 at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, Feb. 8. These franchises faced off in Super Bowl 49 during the 2014 NFL season—New England won that matchup with the infamous Malcolm Butler interception.
Seattle is a 4.5-point favorite and -238 on the moneyline, while New England is +195 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The game total is set at 45.5 points.
Here are my top Stefon Diggs prop bets for the Patriots vs. Seahawks Super Bowl matchup on Sunday, Feb. 8.
Best Stefon Diggs Prop Bets
Stefon Diggs recorded his seventh 1,000-yard season, but he hasn’t been a major threat in the postseason. The veteran wideout had 16 yards vs. the Chargers, 40 against the Texans and 17 vs. the Broncos. While weather affected the last two, these are still weak performances from a No. 1 receiver.
It’s not just on Diggs, however, which is why the under is so compelling. Drake Maye has struggled with his efficiency, completing under 60% of his passes in the postseason. As mentioned, weather played a role, but tough defenses gave the sophomore quarterback some trouble.
Seattle has one of the best defenses in the league, so this could be another difficult matchup for Maye. As a result, Diggs may suffer again in the yardage category. He’s still garnering 5-6 targets in each of the playoff games, but he’s been held under 20 yards twice with a high of 40.
