Thus, in the one month between setting out draft seeds and these odd, we've improved by 3%. Following that progression, we should be in the middle of the pack by training camp, and be the top seed for the Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 How about no respect for the Chiefs. Are they really going to drop that much without Vermeil? We also have the same odds with the Rams, Browns.......& LIONS!? And our odds are better than the Raiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to see the 250-1 or even the 1000-1's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpbillsfan Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I was in Vegas right after they traded for Bledsoe and put $50 at 50-1 odds. My wife said I should have just flushed it down the toilet. I divorced her. Just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I divorced her. Just kidding. 598004[/snapback] You sure about that? Because I was in Vegas exactly the same weekend, and was going to drop a $50 on Bills at 50-1 on Friday. Never got to the counter, and waited a day. After the Bledsoe trade, the odds immediately ran up to 35-1, and that's where I bought in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they were 100-1 before the trade at some of the casinos. I think the Nugget had the best odds that I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets went from 125-1 to 100-1 in...what, a couple of weeks? A 25% improvement? At that rate, the Jets will be the odds-on favorite before training camp. And by the way...if you total up the odds, it comes to 213%. So Vegas predicts a slight chance of three teams winning Superbowl XLI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming off a train wreck of a season, what exactly have the Bills done to warrant better odds?? Adding an 80 year old GM with no previous GM experience? Hiring a coach with a lifetime losing record? Yeah, I can see where Vegas would "reward" them. With no proven QB and both lines in disrepair, it's a wonder that the odds are not worse than they are.

Olaf Fub Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Of course, we've got the whole off-season ahead of us, so it's too early to tell, but I like the Chargers at 10-1. They have a lot of cap room, plus they were pretty good to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper13 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Why should Vegas respect the Bills (or anyone else for that matter)? To get respect, you have to earn respect and the Bills have certainly not done anything to gain anyone's respect at this point. I'd bet a billion dollars, if I had it, that the Bills do not win the Super Bowl next season and there is not one person in Las Vegas or anywhere else that would take that bet.

smokinandjokin Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 The Bengals look like a good buy at 18/1. Is that REALLY the Cowboys at 10/1??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Like A Mofo Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Future bets are a complete waste of time...and bad odds for your $ and good for the casinos because they hold all that $ for months, reinvest it, make $ off of your $ and even if they lose its no big deal. Seriously, some of these teams should be 5000:1 or even 50000:1....some teams have ZERO chance of winning it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Was listening to Mike And Mike this morning. Greenberg picked MyHammy and the Cowgirls in the Super Bowl. That would suck if it came true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
