So where better to start off our segment than with the big dogs: The QB’s. Einstein Picks is a trusted winner for NFL handicapping and the team of brains have a GUARANTEED Super Bowl Bet with complete power rating breakdown on Super Bowl Sunday.

Eli is the Manning has been the common catch phrase being thrown around, but having been to 4 of the last 7 Superbowls, Tom Brady is “The Man”. The numbers this season are flat out scary, 5277 passing yards, 55 TD passes, 116.2 passer rating. Brady has perfect throwing mechanics, pinpoint accuracy, perfect touch on deep throws and a 180 football I.Q.

Super Bowl Sunday QB Power RatingsIf there is one knock on Tom it is that he is not an accurate passer when forced out of the pocket which could come into play against NY’s pass-rush. If not faced with any pressure Brady is virtually unstoppable with his 26 for 28 completion performance against the blitz-free Jacksonville Jaguars will attest to. Sportsbetting.com has the New England Patriots as -12 point Superbowl betting favorites.

On the opposite side of the gridiron is the more maligned Manning, Eli. While Manning’s 74.0 passer rating in the regular season is below-average, he has blossomed over the last quarter of the season into a legit upper-tier NFL QB. Manning is a smart player with a calm demeanor under pressure that should serve him in the Superbowl. Manning will never be a precise passer with his average accuracy but he has developed into a master of the dink and dunk short to intermediate passing game.

Manning has great football awareness and he throws a very catchable ball with a consistently tight spiral. Eli sets up quickly in the pocket, but he is not a scrambler by any stretch of the imagination. Eli can stretch the field with his above-average arm strength when he has time, but if he does not have time to set his feet his throwing becomes wildly erratic. Sportsbetting.com has the TOTAL at 53.5 points for Superbowl betting odds.
