The free-agent acquisition of Saquon Barkley from the New York Giants to the Philadelphia Eagles took the Philly offense and the running back to a new level. Nobody in the NFL rushed for more than Barkley's 2,005 yards in the regular season nor beat him for explosive plays, with the star having seven rushes of 40 yards or more. 

Saquon has taken that form into the playoffs and then some, with a ridiculous 442 yards and five touchdowns on the ground at 6.7 yards per carry. As is often the case with a potent running back, Saquon Barkley prop bets are some of the most popular every week. The postseason is no different, and that’s why we have put together the best Saquon prop bets for Super Bowl 59 on offer at UK betting sites.

Saquon Barkley Super Bowl MVP - 5/2 at BetMGM

The quarterback is usually the clear favourite for the MVP award on each respective team. However, this year the gap between the Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and the next player at NFL betting sites isn’t that big. That’s because Barkley has been such a focal point for the team since a switch in game plans halfway through the season.

There was no bigger indication of this than the betting for regular-season MVP, with Barkley ending the season a much shorter price than Hurts and the best for a non-quarterback in the league. This shows how their value to the offense is seen in the eyes of those around the NFL. The level of performance Saquon needs to achieve to wrestle the MVP award away from his QB is probably lower than what is normally required from a running back. 5/2 is a fair price on him taking home the award, given if the Eagles win, he is likely to be a huge part of the victory.

First Touchdown Scorer - 5/1 at Coral  

There aren't many in the NFL better than Saquon Barkley at scoring touchdowns. He has 20 across the regular and postseason this year, despite being rested for the final game of the regular season. His anytime touchdown odds with most top betting sites reflect this and are probably a touch short for most punters having a one-off bet on the Super Bowl.

On the other hand, his first touchdown scorer odds are much more generous give he found paydirt from 60 yards in the NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders. 5/1 for the most likely touchdown scorer on either team being the first one to find the end zone could get your night off to a great start.

First Team Touchdown Scorer - 5/2 at Ladbrokes

An issue people have with backing a first touchdown scorer on an NFL game is that your bet could be gone before the Eagles offense has touched the ball against the Kansas City Chiefs. If you want to guard against that, take Saquon as the first Philly team touchdown scorer. Barkley was the first touchdown scorer for the Eagles in the NFC Championship Game so could be a nice price with most new betting sites.

Saquon Barkley Over 12.5 Receiving Yards - 9/10 at BetUK

The Chiefs pass defense has been one of the best in the NFL this season, and they are adept at blitzing the QB. Because of this, we could see the need for Hurts to either get the ball out quickly or utilize the screen game. Either way, Barkley could see the ball thrown his way as a result, and just one reception in open space could be enough for him to hit the over here that can be found at most betting apps.

Eagles to win, Barkley to have 2+ TDs and 150+ rushing yards - 11/1 at bet365

If you fancy Saquon to have another all-world game, this could be the Saquon Barkley prop bet for you. Fresh off 323 yards rushing and five touchdowns in the last two games, it wouldn't be a long shot to see the Eagles ride his coattails once more. All three parts of this bet look achievable, and it's available as a price boost at bet365 .

Saquon Barkley Betting Tips

Barkley has found the end zone on a regular basis since joining from the Giants, and there is no real reason this won’t continue in the Super Bowl. His anytime touchdown odds are slightly short, so we will take him to be the first Eagles touchdown scorer instead. Barkley has managed this feat six time this season. Back this at a generous 5/2 with Ladbrokes .
