    Super Bowl Futures (1 of these 12 wins it)

    I like the following...

    San Fransisco +750 ($200) (+700)
    Patriots +900 ($100) (EVEN)
    Packers +1300 ($100) (+400)
    Colts +2500 ($100) (+1600)
    Eagles +2700 (+100) (+1800)
    Bengals +3300 ($100) (+2400)
    Steelers +4000 ($50) (+1000)
    Chargers +5000 ($50) (+1500)
    Texans +6000 ($50) (+2000)
    Giants +6000 ($50) (+2000)
    Browns +9000 ($50) (+3500)
    Bills +125000 ($50) (+5250)

    Risking $1000

    Basically fading Seattle and Denver... I love San Fran and I think we are gonna see a wide open AFC this year

    Interesting. Browns and Bills are worth a shot, fck it why not.

    I don't like the Texans or Eagles really, IMO. I'd rather go with the Rams or Cardinals but damn, that division is so tough. Tough to see Fitz, Palmer or Bradford leading the way so Foles looks the best of the bunch actually.

    I think the Falcons could bounce back while the Panthers fall off. Like the Giants pick, think they win their division. If Dalton can get it together, the Bengals are always dangerous with the team around him. Chargers another, I like what they're doing. Nice to see no Saints on the list, don't think they win it.

    Either way, nice strategy and fun way to do it. GL

    I wouldn't even bet the Texans to be 8-8 at 60-1, let alone win it all.
    Bengals best price on the board this year.
    I will be betting them.

    Just throwing away money with Browns and Giants, Texans.
    All 5 wins or less teams.

    I wouldn't fade the Seahawks.
    A rookie QB in his first season has never brought his team to win the super bowl, so the Browns bet is a sucker bet.

    A team that hasn't made the playoffs in 14 years is not worth a shot. Bills

    I'm a fan and they will do the same as always this year, 7-9/6-10

    Lots of fuzzy math here, looks like you used $900 risked for a couple. Like the eagles and colts picks.

    you picked 12 teams and didnt include Panthers, Saints , or Falcons?

    No Cardinals either? No Ravens?

    very puzzled that you think Bengals, Browns, and Bills have a shot...

    Packers are the best bet on that board. Any team with bigger odds is just throwing your money away, which makes the books very happy.

    Every idiot says the Packers are the best bet every year only until they get dominated in the playoffs by a real team.

    Also, my strategy on this is I dont think we will see a Super Bowl rematch... so should Seattle or Denver make it back I likely have a nice hedge spot

    Packers are a lot like the Cowboys. Great QB and a few other stars, but that's about it. Packers' D stinks.

    Chargers are certainly not winning anything in fact may be lucky to make the playoffs again. Like I said you were better off just putting it all on a team like the Niners who have a legit chance.

    If you have the capability of reading (something that I sincerely doubt) you will see that I said that the packers were the best bet "On that board". I never said that they were the best bet available. No wonder you lose so much. Next time have mommy read it to you.

    Only the idiots that lose are people that blindly bet teams like the packers and patriots every year.

    Cut the word games. If you've got a better bet, just say it. Quit being all slippery like the tout wannabes.

    Seriously, there's a short list of teams this is a good idea for and yours is missing 3 of them and including a lot of dead money.

    This is a terrible way to bet. You're betting against yourself and ultimately risking a lot to win very little, unless a huge longshot comes in.

    Not really, its basically a fade of Seattle, Denver, and New Orleans... AFC is gonna be WIDE OPEN this year. We've seen 20-1 thru 50-1 shots make the Super Bowl almost routinely the past decade. When the season is only 16 games, and with a one game, winner take all format in the playoffs, a lot can happen. It doesnt take much for a team's entire season to go south. Seattle plays in the best division in the NFL, it wouldn't be a total surprise to see them go 10-6 and not even make the playoffs, on the flip-side the same can be said for San Fran. But San Fran was better than Seattle last year and gave away the NFC title game. I love San Fran, they are my favorite to win it this year, but with parity in the league, I know just about any team from the AFC could have a dream year. You see worst to firsts and firsts to worst yearly in the NFL. Half of ESPN had Atlanta and Houston in the SB last year...

    If I had to marrow my 12 picks down to 3 I'd take...

    49ers
    Eagles
    Bengals

    Absolutely love all three...
