The odds of a safety happening again in the 2014 Super Bowl were set at nearly 7-1 odds at SportsBetting.com/.ag.  Live 2nd Half In-Play Wagering Available  Here Now - Sign Up in Under 5 Minutes With  Your Credit Card -  Up to $1000 in Free Plays *Based on Initial Deposit

Prior to the last two Super Bowls a safety had only occurred on three other occasions.  Odds for there not to be a safety required a $100 bet to make a $10 profit. 

But before anyone says lightning can’t strike three times, consider that last year’s safety could signal a new trend.  That one, after all, was intentional.

ProFootballTalk.com broke it down:

Facing fourth and seven from their own eight and clinging to a five-point lead, the Ravens opted to take an intentional safety.  The clock showed 12 seconds at the snap, and the Ravens were able to milk eight of those ticks as punter Sam Koch moved to the back corner of the end zone.

The 2014 safety makes it more inevitable we will see more of the previously “unlikely” scoring play in future Super Bowls.
