Last week, I brought you some of my favorite weekly picks from the brains of whoever makes the prop bets for bodog.com (this is a pretty cool job, but man, that would be a really cool job).
This week, I’ve got a new batch. Maybe I should start a weekly feature called, “For the gambler in you.” How much you wanna bet that I’ll do that?
Will a team from Texas win Super Bowl XLV?
Yes 4/1
No 1/6
At 4/1, I might be inclined to put my money on that, though I don’t think it’ll happen. Wait, the San Antonio Spurs are eligible to play, right?
How many games will Kevin Kolb start from Week 4 onward in the 2010 NFL Regular Season?
Over/Under 2
Too many possible factors to go with the under here. Vick could get injured, he could get benched, Andy Reid could change his mind again before Sunday.
Completion % - Jimmy Clausen (CAR)
Over/Under 54%
There are quite a few backup-QB-turned-starter-this-week prop bets, but this is a pretty good one. Until Clausen proves me wrong, I’d take the under. His first year playing at Notre Dame, it should be noted, he recorded a 56.3 completion percentage.
How many sacks will Clay Matthews record in the 2010 NFL regular season?
Over/Under 20
This is a tough one. I don’t think he’ll break the NFL record of 22.5, but I’d have a hard time putting him at the under as well. So, if I had to spell it out in a mathematical equation, maybe I’d say: 22.5>Matthews>20.
Which of these NFL coaches will be fired first during the 2010 NFL regular season?
Eric Mangini 3/2
John Fox 2/1
Wade Phillips 3/1
Brad Childress 5/1
I was asked this week if I thought Phillips would be fired mid-season, and I said I doubted it because I think the Cowboys will (somewhat) turn themselves around. But if they don’t – if they start 2-6 or something like that – I wouldn’t be terribly shocked for Jerry Jones to give Phillips the mid-season pink slip. So, I’d go with him.
