    They will be huge favorites next round, right? Let's say -340. Could be even higher. -170 versus the Rams. I think it might be even higher, but we can go with that. And in the Super Bowl, they will be the favorites over everyone. For the sake of argument, let's just say -170 again.

    -340
    -170
    -170

    That comes out to +226.

    Therefore, +260 is value.

    Futures are something that a tout would try to push.

    Has to do w/ the route being vs chalk or vs longshots. If the bracket gets blown up + Saints play vs multiple longshots, then the +260 would look very good (in retrospect).

    I'm tracking Colts to see what the line would be if they make it to Superbowl:

    Future to win SB +3000 (1/5/19 before kickoff)
    Colts vs Texans ML +110

    Colts vs Chiefs ML +180 (opening line)

    It'll be well higher than +3000.

    Just wanted to see what the final number will be. I think if the Patriots win next week and the Saints run the board in the NFC it will be higher. But if the Patriots and Saints get upset and we end up with a Cowboys-Colts Suprebowl it could be less.

    No I won't. I go by what books do early. I know what's going on. The Rams were+110 to win the NFC midseason. Books aren't dumb. They got things sorted out and will get rolling again. The saints peaked weeks ago. It would not surprise me one bit if the saints lose the first game.

    All I keep hearing is that no one wants to play in the dome blah blah.

    Rams were +110 midseason because that's when THEY were peaking.

    I don't really think the Rams are that good. Too many superstars, doesn't feel like a team. I wouldn't be shocked if the Bears took them out next week. The Rams can't win a Super Bowl until they move into their new stadium in two years.

    Laker, remember G's thesis in this thread. He's comparing rollover bets vs Future bets. Not really about who is good.

    For that Rams +550 ticket to have any value...they would have to see the Saints get knocked out in Round 1? Is that happening? Sea/Dal going to win at New Orl?

    Chuck this is the NFL. Anything can and will happen. You been around long time like me. The Rams will be +145 in New Orleans if they meet in the NFC championship game.

    You could be right. +145 may be about right.

    So I took the Colts in the middle of November at +15000 to win Super Bowl. Telling me I could've just bet them every game in the playoffs and potentially earned more?

    TC, I think so. Think about the Moneyline prices Colts have cashed at and the prices they'll HAVE TO CASH AT to make it thru the tournament.

    GL on your wager, tho!

    If you bet them to make the playoffs preseason + the 4 playoff games you would of made more.
