Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders never made it past Wild Card weekend during his first three seasons in the NFL. Now the former Penn State star is set for the biggest game of his life as the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs for Super Bowl 57 in Glendale, Arizona.
As far as NFL betting opportunities go, it doesn’t get any better than this. Spread, prop and exotic bets are already posted on legal betting apps across the country, including hundreds of player-specific prop bets for Sanders and everyone else on the field.
It’s been a bit of an up-and-down year for Sanders to this point. He missed time in training camp due to a hamstring injury and played through a knee injury late in the season, at which point his production declined.
Sanders still enjoyed his best NFL season by far, going for 1,269 yards with 11 rushing touchdowns – he only had nine total in his first three years in the league.
The Eagles relied heavily on Sanders in the red zone in the NFC Championship game, during which Sanders scored two touchdowns on just 11 carries to take MVP honors in the win over the 49ers. Now a tough Kansas City defense is waiting in Glendale, and it’s nearly a toss-up at online sportsbooks with the Eagles favored by just -1.5.
If Sanders plays as well as he’s proven capable at times this season, there’s no doubt the Eagles have a great shot to cover and secure their second Super Bowl victory in five years.

Over 57.5 Rushing Yards
Odds:
Sanders only had 42 rushing yards in the NFC Championship, but the Eagles didn’t face any must-have first downs in the second half and never needed to rely heavily on the star tailback. We expect him to have a bigger impact in the Super Bowl.
Few players in this game needed the two-week break more than Sanders, who was clearly playing through a lot of pain at times this season. He still averaged 58.2 rushing yards over the last five games, and this is a much better matchup for him than San Francisco. We’re on Sanders Over 57.5 rushing yards.

Longest Rush Over 13.5 yards
Odds:
Sanders has established himself as one of the most explosive backs in the league this season. He posted 39 rushes of 10-plus yards and went over 20 yards on nine different occasions. We also expect Sanders to get more carries than he has in recent weeks, during which he’s still racked up big gains.
Sanders has had at least one run of 13 yards or more in four straight games when he’s had at least 12 carries. The Chiefs defense, meanwhile, has struggled up front at times – especially in a 27-20 win over the Jaguars, when Jacksonville averaged 7.6 yards per carry. The Chiefs defense gave up several explosive runs in that one and we expect Philadelphia to take advantage. We’re on Sanders longest rush Over 13.5 yards.

Over 13.5 Rushing Attempts
Odds:
Again, we understand why this is on the lower end. Kenny Gainwell has been a huge presence in the backfield the past two games and the Eagles have given several different guys looks at the position. But there had to be a conscious effort to limit Sanders’ carries late in the season and early in the playoffs, when he was fighting just to stay on the field.
Now he should be rested and there’s nothing the Eagles would love to do more than build an early lead and pound the rock. The Eagles have been one of the most run-heavy teams all season, and we expect them to rely heavily on their most consistent producer. We’re on Sanders Over 13.5 rushing attempts.

First Score of Game – Philadelphia Rushing Touchdown
Odds:
As the prior picks indicate, we’re pretty high on Sanders’ production level in this game. But coaches will always ride the hot hand and it’s possible Gainwell continues to see a heavy workload given his last two games. But we do like Philadelphia to start hot and look to establish the run from the get-go.
Rather than place a first-touchdown bet on Sanders at +650, we’ll take Eagles rushing TD in general to allow some wiggle room should quarterback Jalen Hurts, Sanders, Gainwell or Boston Scott find the end zone first. We’re on Eagles rushing touchdown first score at +400 odds.
