from Between the Tackles · host BurgTheGoalie

Sports betting expert and fantasy football pioneer John Hansen (fantasypoints.com founder, @VSinLive, @Fantasy_Guru on X) joins the podcast to break down all angles of the Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl LX gambling landscape. Hansen, the host of “Prop Points” on @VSiNLive Monday-Friday from 1-2 pm ET, kicks off the program by weighing on Patriots owner Robert Kraft’s Hall of Fame snub (4:00). Hansen reveals The Art of Prop Bet (7:00) by explaining his process when determining which bets to zero in on. Hansen’s process and projections blend analytics from fantasypoints.com with his institutional knowledge from more than 30 years as a professional prognosticator. Then, Burg and Manish dive into the Super Bowl player prop bets beginning with Hansen’s best bets on Sam Darnold and Drake Maye (10:30). Hansen analyzes Darnold’s resurgence and artfully weaves that storyline into his rationale for Darnold props for the big game. One Darnold prop bets stands out in Manish’s eyes (14:30). Hansen explains his side on Maye’s rushing total for the game (15:48) before a deep dive on Patriots running back’s TreVeyon Henderson prop bets (17:36). Hansen’s breakdown of Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson (19:10) will make you put down specific wagers on New England’s backfield. Hansen turns his attention to Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker (24:30) and which wagers make the most sense. The sports betting expert then shares his two favorite matchups revolving around Patriots tight end Hunter Henry and Seattle wide receiver Cooper Kupp (27:15), which can help you cash in on Super Sunday. Hansen analyzes the Jaxon Smith-Njigba vs Christian Gonzalez matchup with a strong thought on how to wager JSN’s over/under receiving total (28:28). From there, the guys analyze the first-half game line (Patriots +3.5) and over/under totals for the game (32:29). Hansen discusses the secret behind “The Patriot Way” (32:55) before the guys talk about one sneaky-good defensive prop bet (36:00). Burg shares his favorite team prop bet (38:20) before the guys have some fun with off-field props like whether Darnold’s “seeing ghosts” comment will resurface (40:10), Charlie Puth’s projected length of the National Anthem and much more. Hansen wraps up with a fun story during his appearance on Curb Your Enthusiasm with Larry David. A must-listen with one of the sharpest and entertaining people in the sports wagering and fantasy space. Follow Hansen on X: @Fantasy_Guru. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
