NFL Super Bowl XLIV Odds to Score Last TD

The NFL Super Bowl XLIV shapes up to be a scoring fiasco and the last player to score may clinch the victory for his team. Players to look at for the last score will be players that may be in mop up positions. A second or third string wide receiver or running back makes a good small play in that situation. If the game is close at the end, a clutch wide receiver or tight end is a great bet. The key is to make several bets to have fun but don't go crazy as anything can happen.

Odds to score last touchdown in Super Bowl XLIV.

Field (anyone other than listed player). 9-2.
The last player to score could easily be a defensive player and this bet could be clinched with an interception touchdown. Not a bad play at 9-2, try a medium sized bet.

Reggie Wayne 8-1.
Indianapolis wide receiver, Wayne could be a great bet if the game is close. NFL MVP, Peyton Manning will be looking to hit his clutch wide receiver in the flat or the corner of the end zone to clinch the victory. Wayne is a good small bet at 8-1.

Dallas Clark 8-1.
Dallas Clark, one the best tight ends in the NFL, is Peyton Manning's other favorite receiver to go to in the clutch. Clark could easily be the receiver in a late last second catch that results in Clark crashing into the end zone. Clark is also a good small bet at 8-1.

Joseph Addai 8-1.
Indianapolis running back Joseph Addai has had injuries at the end of the season and in the NFL playoffs. It is possible Addai won't make it to the fourth quarter which actually increases the value of running back Donald Brown. Don't bet Addai to score the last TD.

Pierre Thomas 10-1.
New Orleans running back, Pierre Thomas is unlikely to be the player to score the last touchdown unless he rattles off a monster run. New Orleans last TD is probably going to be a pass. No bet.

Marques Colston 10-1.
New Orleans wide receiver, Marques Colston is one of Brees favorites but late in the game it will be a surprise if Colston sees the ball. No bet on Colston to score last touchdown.

Pierre Garcon 12-1.
Pierre Garcon, wide receiver for Indianapolis, may get more attention as the game goes on. This will leave Reggie Wayne open later. Garcon had only four touchdowns in the regular season and in the NFL playoffs. No bet on Garcon.

Devery Henderson 12-1.
New Orleans receiver, Devery Henderson had only two touchdown catches in the NFL regular season but he has had two touchdowns in the NFL playoffs. No bet on Henderson.

Austin Collie 12-1.
Indianapolis receiver Austin Collie has benefited from the absence of Anthony Gonzalez this year and has become a third option for Manning. Collie will definitely be playing even if it is garbage time so he is a good pick here. Collie is a good medium bet at 12-1 to score last TD.

Reggie Bush 15-1.
New Orleans running back, Reggie Bush is always a possibility to score the last touchdown. It could be a meaningless run back for a score or it could be a trick play to win the game. 15-1 on a dynamic back like Reggie Bush isn't a bad bet. Make a small play on Bush at 15-1.

Donald Brown 15-1.
If Addai goes down in the first half or is pulled out to start the fourth quarter, Indianapolis running back, Donald Brown has a shot at scoring the last touchdown. Check the injury list throughout the week, Addai is injury prone, take a look at Brown to score the last TD at 15-1 but there is a better option. No bet.

Robert Meachem 15-1.
New Orleans wide receiver, Robert Meachem's odds should be 90-1, he isn't worth a bet at 15-1 to score the last TD.

Jeremy Shockey 20-1.
New Orleans tight end Jeremy Shockey will get some play at the betting windows, so his odds may go down to 10-1 or worse. Shockey could be the "go to" clutch guy at the end of the game but if the odds get bet down to far it isn't worth it. No bet.

David Thomas 20-1.
New Orleans tight end David Thomas has only one TD all year. 20-1 is way too low to bet on Thomas. No bet.

Lance Moore 20-1.
New Orleans wide receiver, Lance Moore has been injured most of the year and is a wild card in this game. 20-1 is a terrible value for Moore, he should be 100-1. No bet.

Drew Brees 30-1.
NFL passing leader, Brees did rush in for two touchdowns against Miami this year. Maybe if it is a quarterback sneak to win the game? No way, no bet.

Peyton Manning 30-1.
NFL MVP, Manning should be listed at 500-1 to score a rushing touchdown. No bet.

Mike Hart 25-1.
Mike Hart could be a good wild card move in the game. Hart could come in to spell Donald Brown if Addai is hurt. Hart hasn't done much in the NFL but he is more than capable. Small bet on Hart to score the last touchdown.

Chad Simpson 30-1.
Chad SImpson is the fourth string back for Indianapolis and could very well score a touchdown in garbage time. The odds should be 90-1 though and it is not a good bet at 30-1. No bet.

No Touchdown 500-1.
No touchdown in the Super Bowl or any NFL game should be 5000-1, obvious no bet.
