    "Team to Receive the Opening Kickoff" Prop ???

    Why is this not even but instead Giants -260 Patriots +200 ?? I am assuming Giants usually elect to receive if they win and Patriots usually elect to kick?

    Either that or the ole statistic that the last 14 years the NFC has one to coin flip. Maybe they are expecting NFC to lose this year and Pats to recieve. Good question though

    That's a good theory, however the prop of "Which Team Will Win the Coin Toss" is even at -105 for each team.

    Is that right +200 for Pats to receive?

    Yep...+200 Pats to receive at sportsbook.com

    Giants defered to SF and chose to kick? And the pats surely would pick to receive... What am I missing? Why is this line so weird? Seems like easy +200 on Pats to receive.
