2009 Super Bowl PicksDo you have a few questions about who do pick for the Super Bowl? Football and sports betting have both been American traditions for a long time, so what better game to bet on than the Super Bowl? Making your Super Bowl pick, however, may be a little harder than you think. Although you may think that you have a 50/50 chance of winning, there are a lot of different factors you need to consider in order to make a wise Super Bowl pick for your money. You may be tempted to make your Super Bowl pick based on how much you like one team over the other; however, unless you are betting between friends for a minimal amount of money, then that is usually not the best strategy to take.Expert NFL football handicapper Mike "The Picker" Jones predicts the Pittsburg Steelers winning Super Bowl XLIII by less than 7 points! Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward have overcome their injuries and are fit to play this Sunday in Super Bowl XLIII. Ben is the leader of the team and even though there are four rookies on the offensive line, they are all very close. Watch out for a close medium-high scoring game, Steelers win 24-20! Bet on the Steelers to win Super Bowl XLIII with a -6 1/2 point spread or -230 money line (a $230 wager pays out $100)! One of the first things you should look at when making your Super Bowl pick is how well each team did in the playoffs. Of course they won, but whom did they beat and how well did those teams play? Another great question is: did they have home field advantage the whole way through or did they get in on road wins? You should also find out if there are any big-name injuries going into the game. The loss of a high profile player could mean a loss when it really counts. If you have decided to bet a large amount of money on your Super Bowl pick and are in it to win, you may want to dig a little deeper into the regular season and see how each team did in the last half of their season, especially on the road. Did they make the big plays when it really mattered? If they had a terrible loss could it be because there was an injury that is no longer an issue? Or did they have their second and third string players in. Look into each team's stats and see what they defend best against. If they are facing a team that likes to run the ball, find out how well they did defending the run against other great teams. Furthermore, since the game could always be determined by a field goal, check to see how far each team's longest successful field goals have been and what the weather conditions were like for those games.
