Release of season win total wagers offers look at how teams are perceived

AP
Online sportsbook Bovada.lv released its initial 2016 season win totals Wednesday, something that at very least gets people talking.

If it gets people wagering — legally, of course — that’s just bonus. Regular season win totals for all 32 teams are eventually posted across various online sportsbooks and at Las Vegas casinos, and interested players either choose “over” or “under” for their favorite teams, or ones they love to root against.

FWIW. I'd reverse the Skins and Giants but I fear the Giants more so......

 

[erod]

Cowboys favored to win the division already.

 

[Gameover]

Over

12-4

 

[CowboyChris]

lol Skins 7.5

 

[RS12]

Egirls 7 looks a little high. Bad O Line and Bradford stinks. Team has been gutted of players and draft picks.

 

[Jeffkills]

Pretty sure the East shakes out like this:

Cowboys > Skinheads > Gnats > Filthadelphia

It might look high, but the Giants have a rookie head coach and might be terrible, the Slurs could still be terrible and just reaping the reward of a down year for the East and Romo is a ticking timebomb. If the other teams poop the bed they could eek out eight wins.

Really hard to see how things will shake out this year in the division.

Did they check with ESPN & NFLN on the Eagles...seems every day, they spend more time on the Eagles and their QB situation and Bradford....so according to their usual off season Eagles love, they should be the favorites to win it all, as usual...off season paper champs.....only to be crumpled and burned by week 12.....

 

[dfense]

lol Skins 7.5

Yeah, in your face Gosselin.

 

[RJ_MacReady]

Gut feeling: I think the Colts are in for a rude awakening.

 

[Satchel89]

Me too and the games between the Cowboys and Giants are always crazy

 

[Longboysfan]

lol Skins 7.5

Yes. But why so low coming off a good season??

 

[CowboyChris]

Yes. But why so low coming off a good season??

i just had to laugh when i saw that number, but the more i think about it, it's probably pretty accurate.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Yes. But why so low coming off a good season??

BC they didn't have a good season. They won the division by default without beating a team above .500

 

[big dog cowboy]

Over.

 

[DandyDon1722]

By the way - if anybody is interested in making a bet that has an excellent chance of winning try this one.

Bovada has the over under for Ezekiel Elliott's rush total this year. The number?

900.

Here's another good bet -- I'll be making a visit to Bovado sometime before the season starts.
