Any value in Jets winning superbowl at 20 to 1?

If throwin money away has value to you then by all means proceed

Yes, but if they beat the chargers this line will drop to +800.

I'm not sure if I can see them winning the Superbowl. But if they win this week, you can just hedge the following week and the superbowl for a profit.

I see no reason why the Jets couldn't make it to The Super Bowl this year.

Do you jump on this now, hope the jets win next week. Then you can hedge some money.

No value at 20-1, if you think they win this week, just bet them on ML this week and then revisit next week.

Remember that they would be around the current +260 in all 3 games, which means Super Bowl odds should be 40-1

Not true, key is would you win if you made the same bet over and over.

Flawed logic. If they beat the Chargers they will not be +260 in the remaining games.

Still the ML all up is a better option than 20-1. 25-1 is probably worth taking.

Yes, they will be AT LEAST +260 vs. Colts. They may be less in Super Bowl depending on who they face, but I think it is safe to assume 3-game average of +260.

Only monkey wrench would be if Ravens beat Colts, in which case Jets would probably be FAVORED in AFC Championship at home.

Even if you assume +260, +250 and +180 (and I think +250 in cons ervative vs. Colts), that is still 34-1. And most books will take this off the board when the first game starts Saturday and put back up Saturday overnight/Sunday morning, so if Ravens win, the Jets odds will plummet.

No way. If they get behind Sanchez can not bring them back with his passing.

Baltimore and Dallas for me.

cav1x · 01-13-10, 04:49 PM

No. Nada.

The Jets are dangerous for sure but is there any value in buying a car and telling it to work without gas after 8pm sunday.

SamsNCharge99 · 01-13-10, 05:18 PM

no way they win, so unless you like your money, don't throw it away here

dbldown · 01-13-10, 05:25 PM

Their past 3 games didn't really test them. We'll see what the Jets can do this weekend.

Groves · 01-13-10, 05:49 PM

nope ure throwing ure money away

RageWizard · 01-13-10, 07:34 PM

There is no value in my opinion. The jets have a good defense, but I doubt that they can run the table with San Diego, then possible Indy, then maybe New Orleans, or Arizona. The jets just don't have enough offense to make it all the way. Don't forget that Mark "Dirty" Sanchez has a tendency to toss some picks, and turnovers kill in the playoffs.

I agree with this. Would think colts would be around -340, dont think the spread would be under -7 against the Saints, Vikes or Boys.

Hey Lt, or anyone for that matter, Is there a shortcut for converting +/- odds to fractional odds like you did above?
