    Looking to bet quite a bit on the chalk New England to win it all this year. I know I'm not going to get great odds anywhere but I've already maxed out what they'll allow me to play at my two offshore go-to books at +475 and +450.

    Just think they are loaded this year, having improved since last season, and I think this is the season they go back-to-back.

    I know a lot of you don't like these bets from many of the posts I've read but I've had good luck with them in the past. Hit Denver a couple of years back for a dime at 11 to 1.

    I like futures bets because it usually keeps be from betting week to week as much during the season and I find it fun to root for a team all season.

    I know Westgate is one of the Holy Grail Sportsbooks out there but if ESPN's odds are accurate as if 7/26 NE has dropped to 5 to 2, which is really low.

    I figure someone, that would take a large bet in the mid-5 figure range, has to have them at +350-375?? Or has that ship sailed?

    Any honest help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'll be at the Mirage Thursday through Monday the weekend of the McG-May fight. Their futures odds aren't the greatest.

    Any one with good advice on what book might have good odds? Don't want to spend an entire day going from sportsbook to sportsbook to find the answer if I don't have to.

    And it's a bet I'm going to make so no need for any advice to the contrary.

    Thanks in advance!

    Don't forget to also back them for the AFC Championship. 1 European book has them at +275, which is ridiculously big. Many European books still have them at +250 for the AFC title. They probably should be around +190. I think Bovada is as low as +145.

    Thanks. I was thinking that was another option as a break-even. My offshore has them at +190 still. I'm assuming you're talking Euro books that don't take US customers on the lines you quoted? Thanks again.

    I wasn't trying to be a smart-ass. I know European books don't take US customers. I was taking the opportunity to point out the biggest odds difference between the US and European betting markets on the NFL. For European gamblers that's where the NFL value currently is.
    I hope you find somewhere that will take your bet at good odds. Obviously i'm in no position to recommend such a book.
