        Just guessing that info is out there that both teams usually call heads.

            Hey well if tails won last year than odds are it will be heads this year.

            Kidding.

              Tails never fails. They probably call heads though. Atlanta takes the ball, and puts 7 on the board.

                  Easy. If they know which NE player (they are the visitor) will call the toss and what his preference is, they make this sucker prop.

                    It could certainly be less than 50/50. In rock/paper/scissors, for instance, I'm pretty sure I've read that amateurs are most likely to play rock first (think it was 40%), even though it should be 33.3% for each. Humans are fallible.

                    But +450 seems way too great a price. I could see if it were Heads -170 Tails +150 or something, on the basis that players are irrational and more likely to call heads.

                        Because Patriots have called heads in every single game this year. Now watch Belichick place a bet on tails and have his team call tails!

                          Yeah. That's the reason Heads is priced so high. Just thought I'd point out that teams/players don't calls Heads across the board, by any means

                            Pats call heads 100% chance.
                            right off the bat 1 in 4 chance of calling tails "at best",
                            Atlanta will probably call heads also..

                              HUH?

                              Patriots are calling the coin toss, they are the designated "road" team.
