ODDS TO WIN 2016 SUPER BOWL - ( New Window )
Sucks we still have to play

3 of the top 11.
A lot said this was a 1-2 win team after week 2

As well as we do, that if the Giants get just a little momentum going into the playoffs that this coach and this QB can get REAL hot REAL quick.

At the end of the day does anyone really KNOW how a team like Carolina or Cincinnati will respond once the pressure really hits their shoulders and they aren't playing 1:00 games against Tampa Bay which are televised in 2 small markets?

NFL history is riddled with 13-3 paper tigers who melt under the bright lights.

That is what gives me hope. IF the Giants can win this division it will have gotten there playing a gauntlet of a schedule, and the matchups in the NFC aren't that daunting to me. I'd try to avoid the Packers and Cardinals just because really really good pocket qbs give us fits. Other than that once the playoffs start don't be surprised if we aren't one of the favorites. That's IF we get in of course.
Those Pittsburgh odds  
Giants2012 : 11/20/2015 10:10 am : link
aren't a bad bet.
Denver has a strong defense.  
Andy in Halifax : 11/20/2015 10:10 am : link
If Peyton can get his shit together (and get healthy) they have pretty decent odds imo.
Inevitably someone will come on here and say

The Giants are rated so high because there are soooooooo many Giants fans betting

Even the very biased Aikman said yesterday said the Giants fear no one and feel they can beat anyone (even before the Patriots debacle)

Why avoid the Packers- they are our traditional route to the Super Bowl
if you are afraid of Carolina or Cincinnati  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/20/2015 10:19 am : link
give me a break

neither can match our QB or overall talent level
Panthers are listed

that's close to 10-1, not impressive considering they are undefeated
Seriously when you look at the 8 teams ahead of us  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/20/2015 10:25 am : link
We can handle any of them including the patriots

But for Amendola's trick play (which we will never fall for again) we win that game easily

Well said. I am not so scared of the PATS.
All Vegas cares about is how many people are  
Ron Johnson : 11/20/2015 11:00 am : link
going to bet on each team

they want balance, to guarantee that they win

You've probably never bet on horses before. 17/2 is the same as 8.5/1, but for some reason they won't use decimals.
the Panthers have as much chance

Let's see how far Dallas fans drive down that already-low 75-1 number now that Romo is back at practice. Never mind that no 2-7 team has ever made the playoffs.

Interesting that Philly is a much longer shot than the Giants. I guess Eagle-fan bettors have learned their lesson from painful experience: there's one thing they should NEVER bet on.
it comes down to the Giants win every 4 years  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/20/2015 12:01 pm : link
The Patriots loss was a mirror image of 2007

The Packers are weak

The Panthers are the Panthers, Bengals just got exposed
Seattle is weak

Its an empty highway open road in the desert........we are on cruise control to win it again

Well Carolina and Philly come to our stadium
I like our chances
To put this in perspective  
WillieYoung : 11/20/2015 1:29 pm : link
In 2007 immediately before the conference championship games (only 4 teams left; San Diego, NE, Green bay and us), the Giants were 25 to 1 to win the Superbowl. I bet $40 and the rest, as they say, is history!
Vegas sucks

I took them as I always do before the year for $250 at 37:1 if they even make the playoffs I'll start hedging. Win the division and make a run though! That would be nice
May be more indicative of who Vegas thinks will get into the playoffs  
Ivan15 : 11/20/2015 1:53 pm : link
I would take those odds at 20-1

Yes it seems the top ten teams will indeed be the playoff contenders
All we have to do .... is make the play-offs  
short lease : 11/21/2015 6:17 am : link
and then it is a whole different season, TC and company has proved that in the past (2011 9-7) .... we won the SB with the worst regular season record in the history of the league.

I just wish I felt a little bit better about our Defense.




(Defense wins Championships).

Joe I don't look at the team like most

I track progress not season stats.....if you look at progress the Vegas people seem to believe like me that we are climbing the mountain quite well.

The D and pass rush are rounding out nicely.....the bad decisions have ended

plug inDarkwa at #1 RB and you havea championship team
we are only lacking a 100 yds per game RB

We also need to dismember a good team- Minnesota and Carolina can be those victims
Also I am a HUGE Hakeem Nicks fan  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/21/2015 9:05 am : link
I am drooling that we have him back healthy and rested

pity the poor team that face OBJ, Nicks and Harris.....not to mention the amazing Tye

If we had to face that Quattro with our D we might as well forfit

I still think you might be Pat Hanlon .... your enthusiasm is out of it's mind. But, I enjoy it .... : )


Better than listening to the bitches .... blah, blah, blah ...
My only complaint about Vegas  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/21/2015 11:53 am : link
Is putting Pittsburg and Green Bay ahead of ......Really????

Honestly???? No Nah!!!!

We are better than them right now

I Understand.....we still have not put a good team away

We will
I think the Packers at 12 to 1...  
Milton : 11/21/2015 12:14 pm : link
...represent the best bet.

As far as the longshots go, the Cowboys at 75 to 1 would make the most sense.

What do you know about Nicks that the other 31 teams don't? He was cut by a bad Titans team that opted to carry just 4 receivers instead of keeping Nicks. He's been to Tuesday tryouts all over the country the past 9 weeks with no takers. And that has you drooling? C'mon...I love Nicks but the probability of him suddenly rounding into his old form is infinitesimal.

And I'm not even going to touch "The Amazing Tye"...

Ive already responded to this
Nicks was healthy last year and had a very good year playing limited downs....why didn't the other 31 teams pick up Tye??
Nicks will shock you and the world.....how can you stop OBJ, Nicks, Harris, and Tye (maybe Tye needs blocking practice) but as a receiving TE he is impressive
And even our receivers beyond those 4 are contributing nicely
Let me ask you this  
EVERY4YEARS : 11/21/2015 7:29 pm : link
How is Luck doing without Nicks LOL
