moshermw Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 1. Patriots - 4/1 2. Indy - 5/2 3. Denver - 9/2 4. Bills - 7/1
Canadian Bills Fan Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 1. Patriots - 4/1 2. Indy - 5/2 3. Denver - 9/2 4. Bills - 7/1 Thanks CBF
hondo in seattle Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Kind of shocking. But there has been some good national media about the strength of the Bills squad this year... and the strength of the new coaching staff.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Only three AFC teams have better odds. http://www.scout.com/nfl/bills/story/1560612-bills-a-vegas-favorite-for-afc-championship :blink: put down the crack pipe and step away from the table!!! Damn now I have to look up the old thread on the odds for Buffalo to make it to the playoffs

K D Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 And we play the first 2 teams on that list in the first 2 weeks of the year. We might be #1 by week 3
SF Bills Fan Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 I think Denver is overrated and may be weaker than last year. I'd replace them with Baltimore.
RyanTalbotBills Posted July 3, 2015 Author Posted July 3, 2015 I think Denver is overrated and may be weaker than last year. I'd replace them with Baltimore. I agree with you on this. Manning is still among the best in the league, but he took a step back last year. The Ravens have a better overall roster, in my opinion.
chris heff Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 If the Bills had a better situation at QB I could understand this.
Kelly the Dog Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 The Bills started out as real long shots. Then when they traded for Shady and signed Harvin and Clay, a decent amount of people bet on them making the oddsmakers adjust the line. If they do find a QB to play decent 7/1 seems realistic.
Kirby Jackson Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 I'm not shocked by this. The Bills will play potentially dominating defense, have as many weapons as anyone and great ST. In addition, the AFC isn't very good. Would you trade rosters with Pittsburgh, Cincy, Houston, KC, Miami, Baltimore or SD? I think that is probably the next tier.
Oberyn Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Public Service Announcement to anyone going to Vegas and wants to place a Bills to win AFC Championship bet: THESE ARE HORRIBLE ODDS! NEVER BET FUTURES AT CESAERS! Sorry for caps, but seriously, go to any other casino and you will get better odds. Just checked a couple of places, seeing Bills at 12 and 14 to 1 instead of 7. Also at other places I am seeing Ravens, Dolphins and Steelers ahead of Bills odds-wise, so there is definitely not agreement in Vegas that Bills are 4th most likely team to win AFC.

I would take any of our 3 over McCown or Geno Haha. It's like his opinion but what a joke. Bortles had an awful rookie year (far worse than EJ) and he's put him at 25 & praises him. But after looking at his resume on Wikipedia, it's pretty clear he is a football expert. "According to NFLTouchdown.com, Benoit started writing football books at the age of 14, and was dubbed by the Idaho Statesman as "The NFL Kid".[11] Benoit's two cats, Mr. Fizzles and Othercat, have gained some notoriety as they have been mentioned by Peter King in several of his weekly articles."

It doesn't matter what others are offering, Bills bettors are putting their money with Caesar's over the other place, thus forcing down the line. The "better odds" places aren't getting action, obviously.
vincec Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) I think Denver is overrated and may be weaker than last year. I'd replace them with Baltimore. Baltimore is going to miss Kubiak. He really had a positive effect on their offense. Edited July 3, 2015 by vincec
Mr. WEO Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 They're going to miss Kubiak. He really had a positive effect on their offense. Excellent point. Wish we had hired him.

The "better odds" places aren't getting action, obviously. Precisely. I tried to explain this to #34Billsfan in another thread and he wasn't getting it. When you run a book you follow the money. If the Bills are 7/1 it probably means that Caesar's have taken a handful of very big bets on them at bigger odds. They don't really want any more people backing them because their liability on their book is already too big on the Bills so they price them in such a way that people will go elsewhere.
Mark80 Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 1. Patriots - 4/1 2. Indy - 5/2 3. Denver - 9/2 4. Bills - 7/1 1. Indy 5/2 2. Patriots 4/1 3. Denver 9/2 4. Bills 7/1 Just sayin'.
GunnerBill Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 1. Indy 5/2 2. Patriots 4/1 3. Denver 9/2 4. Bills 7/1 Just sayin'. Haha good spot!
