Here are some of the best prop bets to trust in Super Bowl 56. AllRams vs. Bengals odds areaccording to the.Last updated: Wednesday,Feb. 9MORE SUPER BOWL PICKS:|Super Bowl 2022 best betsPoint spreadRams (-4) over Bengals.The line for Super Bowl 56 has been a bit volatile, as it has shifted between the Rams being favored by 3.5 points all the way up to 4.5 points. It seems to be settling on Los Angeles as four-point favorites, but it could shift more in the days leading up to the Super Bowl.The Rams certainly have an advantage over the Bengals personnel-wise, as their defensive line could wreak havoc against Cincinnati's porous offensive line. That said, Burrow has overcome porous protection often this year. The Bengals are 6-6 outright in games where he has been sacked at least three times, and four of those six defeats were by three points or le s.So, even if the Rams get a lot of pre sure, the Bengals can still keep pace Cincinnati Bengals Accessories thanks to Burrow's high-end skill set and their sneaky-good defense. Betting them to cover this spread seems wise.Pick: Bengals +4 (-108).Money lineRams -198 |Bengals +166.The juice for the Rams has increased, as they were -180 in the immediate aftermath of the NFC championship game. There's not a lot of value here going with the Rams, but if you don't like them against the spread, betting them here seems like the right move. They should still beat the Bengals even if Cincy keeps it close.Pick: Rams (-198).Over/underRams vs. Bengals, 48.5 points.The over/under total actually dropped by a point despite the fact that the Rams and Bengals have averaged 28 and 24 points per game this postseason respectively. What's causing the drop? A couple of things.First, the Bengals figure to struggle with the Rams' pa s rush. They allowed Burrow to be sacked nine times against the Titans and scored just 19 points in that game as a result. They could similarly be held in check here.Additionally, the Rams have scored just 30 points over their last six quarters of postseason action after scoring 54 in their first six. Stafford had some rocky moments against the 49ers, so if those carry over into this game, that could slow the Rams down. That's enough Cincinnati Bengals Hats for us to strongly consider the under here.Pick: UNDER (-110).MORE: Best Super Bowl 56 player prop betsBoth the Bengals and the Rams have explosive offenses and plenty of weapons. That means there areplentyof different ways to take advantage of prop bets. Here's a handful of Sporting News' favorite prop bets for the 2022 Super Bowl.1. Joe Burrow OVER 276.5 pa sing yards (-114).Burrow and the Bengals have played four opponents that rank in the top 10 of , which "breaks down the entire season play-by-play, comparing succe s on each play to the league average based on a number of variables including down, distance, location on field, current score gap, quarter, and opponent quality." In those contests, Burrow has averaged 331.3 pa sing yards per game and 37.3 pa sing attempts per game as compared to his season-long averages of 288.2 and 33.1 in those categories. He should go over here, as the Bengals may have a tough time running on a stout Rams run defense.2. Cam Akers UNDER 64.5 rushing yards (-114).It's never fun to bet the under on any offensive stat, as one long play can render it moot, but going against Akers seems like a solid bet. He did well to recover from a preseason Achilles tear and play the last four games of Los Angeles' season, but he is averaging 50.3 rushing yards per game on 2.8 yards per carry during the preseason. That seems unlikely to change, especially if he splits carries roughly down the middle with Sony Michel, as he did against the 49ers.3. Tee Higgins OVER 69.5 receiving yards (-114).The Rams may have Jalen Ramsey at their disposal to help slow down Ja'Marr Chase, but they aren't as well-equipped to slow down Auden Tate Jersey Higgins. The Rams allowed Brandon Aiyuk, the 49ers' No. 2 receiver, to roast them in two of their last four games, as he totaled 10 catches for 176 yards in those contests. Higgins should have similar succe s, especially since he towers over the Rams defense at 6-4. All of Los Angeles' defensive backs aside from Ramsey (6-2) are listed at 5-11 or smaller.4. Cooper Kupp OVER 106.5 receiving yards (-114).Asking for a 100-plus-yard receiving game is usually a tall ask, but Trey Hill Jersey not from Kupp. He has exceeded this yardage total in seven of his last nine games and has averaged 114.5 receiving yards per game this season. With Tyler Higbee (knee) in doubt for this game, there will be more targets available for Kupp to receive. Stafford won't hesitate to go to him early and often, so rolling with the over is the right move.MORE:5. Odell Beckham Jr. OVER 5.5 receptions (+116). The bookmakers don't seem to like Beckham's odds of getting six catches, but they should. Again, Higbee is banged up and Beckhamcould benefit if Higbee can't play or is more limited than he normally would be by his knee injury. Stafford should look Beckham's way enough, as he has targeted him 19 times over the Rams' last two games.6. Ja'Marr Chase OVER 5.5 receptions (-130).Chase will be guarded by Ramsey for most of the day, but that won't render him entirely ineffective. If Burrow is going to throw a lot, then Chase should rack up plenty of targets and receptions. He has at least six catches in four of his last six games so he stands a good chance of hitting the over here, especially if the Bengals try to manufacture him some touches close to the line which they may do to take pre sure off th
