500 - Bengals over 6.5 +115 = 575
200 - Bengals win Division 2000 = 4000
100 - Bengals win Conference 5000 = 5000
200 - Bengals win Super Bowl 10000 = 20000
All told $1000 bet with chance to win $30,575
As long as they win 7 games I will win $75.00 all told.
Go Bengals!
Anybody else betting on Bengals?
I did a bunch of smaller ones, with longshot odds. Like the win the AFC. If they make the playoffs, you start hedging the bet against yourself and end up making a nice pile of cash. Also did a couple fun ones like Burrow to win Comeback Player of the Year.
I think Prescott getting near even odds for that award is a function of Vegas trying to balance out so man Cowboy fans betting on their guy. I guess Dallas has a lot of historical trends of overbetting their team.
That is why I think your best bet is the over 6.5 games. Not forgetting there are also 17 games this year, but the very dismissive nature of all the talking heads and National opinion of how they approached the draft, etc, I think there are a lot of individuals betting the under and that pulls that number down, making it the best bet on the board. Smart approach to go heavier on that one and just have fun (or hedge) watching the others play out!
NOTE: I also made a thread about ZT getting 66-1 odds for Coach of the year.
Good luck!
