Will the Panthers score a TD in the 1st quarter?

Yes +120
No -140

The Panthers scored two first-quarter touchdowns in the NFC title game and two the week before that. They're used to starting very hot. After their Week 5 bye, the Panthers have scored a touchdown in the first quarter in 10 of 14 games. The Broncos' defense is stout, but the Panthers will keep rolling. - David P. Woods

Pick: Yes +120

Will the Panthers score a rushing TD?

Yes -200
No +175

With the Panthers relying on so many Super Bowl rookies to be key contributors, expect a slow start in the first half. Forced to play from behind, the likelihood of a rushing touchdown decreases and, at +175, the value's there. - Joe Thomson

Pick: No +175

Will Owen Daniels score a TD?

Yes +220
No -260

Peyton Manning loves his tight ends, as evidenced a week ago when Owen Daniels caught two scores against the Patriots. With the Panthers defense focused on shutting down Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders on the outside, Daniels will capitalize and find the end zone for the second straight game. - Justin Boone

Pick: Yes +220

Will there be a special teams or defensive TD?

Yes +155
No -175

Non-offensive scores aren't exactly common in the Super Bowl, but these may be the league's two best defenses. Whether it's Carolina forcing a pick-6 of Peyton Manning or Denver's league-best secondary coming through in the same way, betting on a defensive touchdown in this game actually presents plenty of value. - Dan Wilkins

Pick: Yes +155

Will Cam Newton score a rushing TD?

Yes +120
No -140

In compiling their 17-1 record, the Panthers haven't faced a single opponent that's had more than seven days to prepare for them. With the extra time to put a game plan together, expect Wade Phillips to put a scheme together that neutralizes Carolina's relatively basic offense, with a focus on shutting down the league MVP. - Gino Bottero

Pick: No -140
