You name either 5 or 6 teams that will not make the NFL playoffs this year. If they all don't make it, you win. If one or more of them make it, I win. I'll offer even money on 6 teams, you must give me 1.5-1 on 5 teams.

What are the odds on this bet anyway?

I did it while hammered one night. If you believe in FO, it was like 50.4 or so on the 6 teamer slightly -EV on the 6 teamer. But I was hammered and could have done my math wrong.

Ass F is gonna lose his bet to me. Detroit and Cleve are not playoff bound this year. Det has GB 2x, NYG, Dal, at SDG, probably lose at least 4-5 more times. I don't think they get in at 9-7 with losses to PHL and Was and Zona. No run game and no Def = no playoffs. If PHL can beat Miami, Buf, Sea, @NO, [or NYG] and tie Det they get in with tiebreak.

Cle has 4 more road games and AFC is just too tough, and they are 4th going for 2 slots.

Random numbers has you at 29.8% to win going into tonight.
FO has you at 30.2 before the weekend started. Looking significantly more solid after yesterday.

I can't believe people who are probably successful gamblers actually took this bet. I mean you have to be more than 89% sure that each team won't make it to be +EV on this bet, in a league where 40% of the teams make the playoffs. Furthermore it is worse than that because these aren't independent events, as one team missing makes the other teams more likely to make it.
I think it would be still be hugely profitable for Assani if he gave a push for having 5/6 make it.

This is completely wrong, and worse, discussed earlier. Try again.

Theres only 3 years of data since thats all I've offered the bet for, but you're correct: I would still have won the past 3 years if I offered a push with only one wrong- and I had only made people pick 5 teams before this year.
