Check out our full list of props in our easy-to-read PDF file.<\/p>\n<h3>Here\u2019s a look at the top MVP candidates:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ben Roethlisberger (+175)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Roethlisberger may be the favorite as he\u2019s the quarterback of the team favored by seven points, but he\u2019ll have to play a lot better than he did in the Super Bowl against Seattle a few years ago. \u2018Big Ben\u2019 threw for just 123 yards and had two picks and he would have been the goat if they lost that game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kurt Warner (+250)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Warner won this award in the 1999 season when St. Louis defeated the Tennessee Titans, 23-16. He threw for 414 yards in that game, two TD\u2019s and no interceptions. Warner threw for 365 more yards in the Super Bowl loss to New England two years later when Tom Brady won the first of his two MVP\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" title=\"Sportsbook.com\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_2744b_30\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Online Sports Betting at Sportsbook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Larry Fitzgerald (+500)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fitzgerald may be the most talked about player leading into this game and that\u2019s not surprising given the fact he\u2019s averaged 139 yards receiving in three playoff games and has five touchdowns. Fitzgerald provides great value at these odds, especially with the sportswriters already comparing him to 49ers\u2019 great Jerry Rice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Willie Parker (+750)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Parker has been a little bit of feast or famine recently. He has gone over 116 yards twice in the last three games, but was held to just 46 yards last game against Baltimore. With Pittsburgh\u2019s likely commitment to the running game, especially if it\u2019s working, Parker is another player with intriguing odds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Troy Polamalu (+1050)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As mentioned above, two defensive players have won this award recently, and Polamalu is the kind of big name, big play guy that can do it again. The Steelers\u2019 safety sealed the win over Baltimore with an interception return for a touchdown and another \u2018Pick-Six\u2019 could bring a Super Bowl MVP and a big payday to bettors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Players (+1500)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anquan Boldin, Edgerrin James, Hines Ward, and Santonio Holmes are all at +1500 odds due to respective question marks. Boldin has fought with the coaches and is in Fitzgerald\u2019s shadow, while James will have trouble running versus the Pitt defense. Ward\u2019s knee is going to be far less than 100%.<\/p>\n<p>Holmes is the best value of the four as Roethlisberger likes to look for him deep and he is capable of a 100-yard plus receiving game, big plays on special teams and two TD\u2019s. At these odds, that makes him a very attractive candidate.<\/p>\n<h3>Sportsbook.com: Everybody bets At Sportsbook.com &#8211; Get your Super Bowl XLIII Betting Prop Odds Today!
