Would this have been a profitable middle?
Before the game I could have gotten this prop middle:
Longest TD in game Over 47.5 -130 Under 65.5 -140 It wouldn't have hit, but I wonder if that's something I should have jumped on or not, for future reference. Thanks for any help. |

Re: Would this have been a profitable middle?
Without much analysis, I'd have to say this is a pretty awful middle. Just to make the math easier let's say both were -135.
X% of the time you will win both for +200 (100-X)% of the time you will win one, lose one for -35 So you need to hit the middle roughly 15% of the time to make it break-even. I don't have any real data on this, but I don't think this is even close to be honest with you, maybe someone else will have a better answer but I think you should be glad you didn't take it (clearly, since it lost). |

Re: Would this have been a profitable middle?
I guess I was thinking that with these two high-powered offenses, there would be a big play for a TD, so I figured about 5:1 that a TD of 48-64 without another going over would be reasonable . . . I don't have any data either though.
