The Super Bowl is right around the corner and there’s no better way to get involved than on the FanDuel Sportsbook. As the Patriots offense will look to move the ball against a top-ranked defense, New England’s defense will look to stay red-hot against Sam Darnold and the Seahawks’ offense.
If they are able to do so, here are two prop bets we’ll be watching for on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Patriots Super Bowl prop bets: Defense
Milton Williams SB MVP +22500: The long shot of all long shots, as only three defensive lineman have ever won Super Bowl MVP with the last being Richard Dent against the Patriots. Williams has been a monster over his last seven playoff starts recording 31 pressures and also tallying a pair of sacks — one strip sack — in last year’s Super Bowl win with the Eagles.
New England’s defensive front matches up well against Seattle’s in this one, and Williams (and fellow defensive tackle Christian Barmore) will have a chance to once again take the game over especially against a weaker interior unit.
Kenneth Walker U73.5 Rushing Yards: For as good as Jaxon Smith-Njigba has played this season, it would be no surprise if New England’s top priority on the defensive side of things is to slow down Kenneth Walker. Walker has become Seattle’s workhorse back after the injury to Zach Charbonnet and has found success down the stretch of the regular season and in the playoffs in their zone run scheme.
But, New England’s run defense has rebounded as the unit has been healthy and will make it a priority to protect their edges and dominate early downs this week.
