The Gold Rush: Are Tom Brady’s Buccaneers a smart bet to win SB 55?
NFL free agency is upon us! Find out which teams are good bets to win Super Bowl 55.
Video Transcript
- Welcome to 2020 where a virus is devastating the world, everyone is stuck inside, and NFL teams seem to have lost their minds.
- Everyone loses their minds.
- Luckily, sports betting is legal, and we can try to make some money during these trying times.
- That's just sick.
- Say what you want, but while everyone's finding value in Purell stock, there's also some value at the Yahoo sportsbook on some Super Bowl futures.
You might think the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a great future bet now that they have Tom Brady.
- Wrong.
- But I'm not going anywhere near that team, especially after their odds went from 60 to 1 to 16 to 1 to win the Super Bowl. Talk about no value.
There is still a lot of value in the AFC East, and no, I'm not talking about the Patriots.
BILL BELICHICK: It's nothing about the past, nothing about the future.
- The Buffalo Bills have made some major moves by acquiring Stefon Diggs from the Vikings, not to mention the fact that they also have one of the best defenses in the league.
- One of the most hardest-hitting safeties in the league.
- After the Patriots officially lost Tom Brady, the Bills went from 30 to 1 to 25 to 1 to win the Super Bowl. Also, if the Bills are somehow underdogs to win the AFC East, I'll be jumping headfirst onto that foldout table.
The next team with value is the Indianapolis Colts who went from 30 to 1 to 25 to 1 after signing Philip Rivers, but the value here isn't due to the Colts' free-agency moves. It's actually based on the rest of the AFC South totally botching free agency.
- You blew it!
- Between the Jaguars trading Calais Campbell for a fifth-round pick and the Houston Texans traded away DeAndre Hopkins for some reason only God knows why, the Colts are going to run away with this division. Ryan Tannehill might have something to say about this, but I'm saying the Colts are looking pretty tasty right now to win the Super Bowl at 25 to 1.
- Last I'm looking at a real long shot, the Arizona Cardinals. Even though they're in a stacked division with the 49ers, Rams, and Seahawks, the Cardinals odds moved from 80 to 1 to 50 to 1 after acquiring DeAndre Hopkins. That's a major weapon for second-year quarterback Kyler Murray.
KYLER MURRAY: I appreciate that.
- Arizona might be a long shot, but that's why they call it gambling. Give me the Cardinals at 50 to 1.
