NFL Pro Bowl Betting Odds
The NFL Pro Bowl has undergone a number of changes over the years to make it more appealing, but it is just a glorified exhibition contest that at times can be an unwatchable display. However, it does allow for a number of wagering possibilities and it is football, which keeps the game coming back year after year. The Pro Bowl still draws a larger television audience than the regular season games of the other major sports. Based on the money generated from that, the Pro Bowl continues to live on with new rules and a revolving schedule. And while the Pro Bowl will never match the Super Bowl or even a regular season game in quality and intensity it has become much easier on the eyes the past several years.
Unlike most professional All-Star games that are played in the middle of a sport’s season, the Pro Bowl had taken place at the conclusion of its season until 2010. With interest in the game dwindling, the NFL moved the contest to the dead week between the conference championship games and Super Bowl in attempt to take advantage of the buzz surrounding the sport leading up to its championship game. Players voted to the Pro Bowl who are on a team competing in the Super Bowl will not play.
2020 NFL Pro Bowl Game at a Glance
Date: Sunday, January 26, 2020
Time: 3:00 p.m. ET
Venue: Camping World Stadium, Orlando, Florida
TV: ESPN
Matchup: American Football Conference vs. National Football Conference
As is the case with any NFL betting matchup you can bet on the Pro Bowl with sides, totals, money lines, halves, props, and live betting. Props are especially popular for Pro Bowl gambling as it is based on individual player statistics such as yards, touchdowns, attempts, interceptions, sacks, long plays, special teams, field goals, etc. For various reasons many of the top players in both conferences don’t play in the game. They could be on a Super Bowl team, or most likely nursing an injury. However, that hardly means big names are missing. Consider that 2018 NFL Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs ended up as Offensive Most Valuable Player of last January’s Pro Bowl as the AFC defeated the NFC 26-7.

That of course means that top players from the American and National Conference champions do not take part in the game. However, that hardly means that big names are missing. Consider that 2018 NFL Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs ended up as Offensive Most Valuable Player of last January’s Pro Bowl as the AFC defeated the NFC 26-7.

In 1938 the NFL staged its first Pro All-Star Game that featured an all-star team against that year’s league champion. That format continued for five years until the game was discontinued due to the events of WWII. The game was revived in 1950 as the Pro Bowl with all-star teams from the league’s two conferences competing against each other. That model continued in some form until the 2014 game where captains selected a roster in a player draft.
The NFL returned to a conference format for the 2017 game with the AFC winning all three contests since the switch. Overall, the AFC has won 24 of the 46 matchups since the current AFC vs. NFC format was established after the 1970 merger.

What to Watch For
The Biggest dynamic of the Pro Bowl is which players will participate, which players will not, and how much they intend to play. Research leading up to the Pro Bowl is essential, especially when betting on individual player prop bets. Sometimes a player will make a brief cameo appearance but really play much in the game. With that in mind its important to do your homework in preparation for NFL wagering on the Pro Bowl.
Top Players
Patrick Mahomes performance in the 2018 season Pro Bowl was indicative of the offensive nature of the game and how a quality starting quarterback can be the difference in the game. The Pro Bowl rules are more constraining on defensive freedom which means that a quality quarterback can pick opponents apart. Mahomes threw for 7-14, 156 yards and a touchdown. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson led the NFC with 5-8 passing for 68 yards. Keenan Allen of the Los Angeles Chargers starred for the NFC with 95 yards receiving on four catches.
Backups Enhance Live Betting
During a typical Pro Bowl game, the lineup is quite fluid with changes that are so frequent that it reflects a hockey game. This makes for some of the most exciting live betting that can be found all year. Props becomes absolutely wild in Pro Bowl live betting.
Free NFL Picks
