Bengals vs Rams Super Bowl Prop Bets

One of the most fun bets available is wagering on the highest-scoring quarter of the game. Let's break down the odds and give a pick for this prop heading into Bengals-Rams Super Bowl LVI.

Highest-Scoring Quarter Super Bowl Prop Bet

FanDuel Sportsbook is favoring the second quarter to be the highest-scoring quarter at +155. The fourth isn't too far behind at +220 odds, while the third (+500) and first (+550) follow. The sportsbook is also listing a tie for the highest-scoring quarter at +700.

Highest-Scoring Quarter Super Bowl Prop Bet History

Recent Super Bowl history points to either the second or fourth quarter being the safer bets. Since Super Bowl 50, the second and fourth quarters have each been the highest-scoring frame three times apiece.

In fact, you have to go back to Super Bowl XLVIII to find a different winner for this prop. The third quarter won that year, with the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos combining for 22 points in the third frame.

Highest-Scoring Quarter Super Bowl Prop Bet Prediction & Pick

It makes a lot of sense to go with either the second or fourth quarter again this year. Teams are usually scrambling to add points before halftime or the end of the game, leading to them being the top options.

Two of the Bengals' three postseason games have seen the second quarter as the highest-scoring frame. Meanwhile, the third quarter has received that honor twice for the Rams and their three playoff opponents so far.

Keeping that in mind, the Bengals are in enemy territory this Sunday and will likely try to silence the fans early on. The Rams will have no choice but to respond, leading to some potential fireworks before halftime in the second quarter.
