The unlikely play that can swing millions of dollars

The Super Bowl safety prop is one of the most popular bets in sportsbooks. It's been popular since 1986. The Chicago Bears' defensive lineman, William "The Refrigerator" Perry, scored a touchdown in Superbowl XX. The last three Super bowls have not featured a safety. Professional bettors are more sensitive to the price than recreational ones. They're willing to bet a lot to win a little. In the past, the last two years, there were no safety bets. This year's game is between the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams.
