New York Jets See Super Bowl Odds Drop

by John B on Dec 30, 2010 8:24 PM EST

Now might be the time to go to Vegas and lay some money down on the Jets. Bodog.com now has them at 25/1 to win it all, up from 18/1 last week and 10/1 to start the year.

I know the team isn't playing particularly well, but those seem like great odds for the degenerate gambler. This is a team with a ton of talent and the potential to put it together at the right time.

I know the Colts will have a 1st round game at home

but 16/1 when we are 25/1?

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.

Those oddsmakers in Vegas aren’t dumb.

If one was intent on throwing money away, I would suggest putting $20 on the Rams. Much better payout and realistically, almost as likely.

They are not dumb. I wonder if this line will pull a bunch of NYers in. Let’s see if the line moves.

absolutely

im a pats fan and this is a great bet. dunno what the oddsmakers are thinking but bears at 11-1 and jets at 25-1?

Its more then how good the teams are

The Bears only need to win two games to reach the super bowl, and one, maybe two is at home. The Jets need to win three road games.

The Jets odds are the same as the Chiefs...

I wish I would have put some preseason money on KC!

but it’s still about winning it all, bears are not getting the #1 seed, no way carolina blows the #1 pick and upsets atanta. the better team will be trying to win while the sucky team will be trying to lose. they would have to beat the saints first most likely, even at home thats a tough game, then go to atlanta? then beat the afc winner. i just don’t see that happening. i can see the jets getting hot and beating KC then pittsburg. and if the pats come out flat and lose their divisional game, anything can happen. bears are phonys, jets are a talented team.

It's a great bet (snark)

Since the odds should be 250-1. Jets don’t have a chance. This isn’t 1969. No Namath on the team.

Jets and Giants both seem like decent bets really. I’d only put 10 bucks tops on the Giants though, as their road to just the playoffs seems in jeopardy
