Betting
on Super Bowl Winners
All
of the odds that are listed below are based
upon Las Vegas odds that were posted August
26, 2004 and may differ from your favorite
Internet Sport Book Super Bowl odds, which
generally gives you even better odds. One
thing is certain though; the odds will undoubtedly
change between the time of this posting
and the day of the big show.
Jacksonville
Jaguars
Jaguars
(30:1)
Young, athletic, a good running back, a
good receiver, a young unproven quarterback,
a hard nosed defense. Sound like anybody?
Sure, sounds like the Panthers a year ago.
Well, at 30:1 I might just take a chance
at these Jaguars being a touchdown better
than the Panthers a year ago. One TD and
the Panthers could have been Super Bowl
champions. Byron Leftwhich is a winner.
We've seen it in college and we might see
it in the pro's as quick as this year. Jack
Del Rio is going to try and make it easy
on Byron by giving the pigskin to Fred Taylor
as much as possible. Fred is one of the
fastest most explosive backs in the league,
and with his injuries behind him, he's set
for a season that will show the rest of
the NFL how good he truly is. The defense
struggled a bit last year, but this year
the offense should put them in better situations.
Hugh Douglas is a good player and I believe
he'll try to show it. Marcus Stroud and
John Henderson are huge powerful D-Tackle's,
and they'll dominate again this year. Jimmy
Smith is underrated, even with his age climbing
he's one of the best receivers in the league.
Hopefully for the Jag's the young wide receivers
like Reggie Williams and Ernest Wilford
will take advantage of single coverage.
Look for the Jacksonville to play the role
of most improved. At 30:1 a twenty dollar
bet might make me 600 bucks, and then I'll
be a Jaguar faithful.

Other
Intriguing Prospects: The Seahawks
at 12:1, the Panthers at 15:1,
and the Steelers at 20:1 are also worth
recognizing. The Hawks are loaded at every
position and have shown a confidence that
makes them exciting. The Panthers at 15:1
went to the Super Bowl last year
and
almost beat the heroic Patriots. The Steelers
have 3 amazing wide receivers and Duce Staley
has looked great in the pre-season. He was
underused last year in Philly, and I'm sure
he's out to prove it. Add these three teams
to the list. Take a chance on one of the
teams in my elite eight and come out with
a little, or a lot of pocket cash!
