Default Re: Miami to NOT go 0-16 prop

I understand 70% for Baltimore is controversial (esp if Buffalo at 60%). Call it a matter of opinion. Before you lash out, do your own recalc and you will see even if you move each 5% it doesnt really do much to the calc price for the bet.

the standard deviation on those and any other estimates is enormous as im sure you savy bettors understand...my strategy would be to try and single out 2 games / 5 remaining that I think Miami has a good chance of winning (>45%). if you can do that, then you can make this bet easily.

Chance to LOSE:
NYJ - 55% (I actually think its 65% but I dont want to cause an uproar given where the spread is)
BUF - 60%
BAL - 70%
NE - So much uncertainty depending who they start but to be conservative lets say 90%
CIN - 80%

[/ QUOTE ]

So they play a top 10 team in the NFL at home and its ~96% from the markets and you meanwhile think that its 90% for a piss poor MIA team? They could play this game in a middle school hallway and MIA would have less of a chance than PHI.

Funny numbers - you think Baltimore is a 6 point favorite in Miami? And likewise you'd take the Jets up to -4.5 in this game?

i assume you are not realizing that brady may not start.

Are you telling me that right here right now I can bet Miami at 25:1 or so odds???

Please let me know where.

BTW, 25:1 is the inverse of 96% in case you arent following.

Rust:

like i said those % are so argumentative and the standard deviation from actual so high that to sit here trying to precisely calculate is a waste of time and I would contend fruitless.

I said if you think Miami has >45% chance to win any 2 of their remaining 5 games then you have to like this bet -500.

Ie the odds of losing two games as an even money shot is 1/4, the bet odds are like 1/6, so your basically on a freeroll for the other three games.

If you realized Brady may not start, why did you say 96% chance according to the market. I really dont understand. Instead of just twisting one comment to seem incorrect, why not just put thought behind it since I obviously have?

The only question is where the lines for Miami games will be over the next 5 weeks. There's no way Baltimore would be a 6 pt favorite in Miami today, etc. If you really believe they will be, bet this prop and arb it on all Miami opponent moneylines.
