Randy Moss spent part of the off season wondering where he would be playing this football season. Now, as the Super Bowl approaches, he has become the favorite by the odds makers to score the first touchdown in the game.
Moss has odds of +400 to be the first player to score a touchdown this weekend. Those are the lowest odds among all the players in the game.
Laurence Maroney is the second choice of the odds makers at +600. The first Giant that is listed is Plaxico Burress. His odds are +700.
In essence, that means that sports books believe that New England will be the first team to score a touchdown in Arizona on Sunday. Upon looking at many of these prop bets, one has to wonder if the Giants have any shot at all at winning this game.
Up and down the list of propositions there are lower odds across the board on the Patriots in almost every scoring prop. If the Giants do pull the upset, or even get on the board early, it could leave many gamblers happy.
There is no doubt that gamblers will seize the opportunity to play the odds and hope for a miracle from the Giants. The game line continued to drop today. The Patriots are now only favored by eleven and a half. That is almost a full field goal less than where the game opened at. |
