Odds of NY Giants making the playoffs?
Right now, what do you think would be the right/fair odds payout to someone who bets that the Giants miss the playoffs and is correct?
I'm a giants fan and i have friend who is putting me to the test. What do you think are the fair market odds? |

They are 1.2-1 to win the NFC East at bet365 and 1.9-1 at sportingbetusa. I'm not sure how to factor in the wildcards. My guess is even odds would be decent. Note the word "guess".

[/ QUOTE ] You are laying 6.5 to 1. I'd have to look at the tiebreaks and schedules to be sure, but I'd guess with WAS 2 games behind they are less than 13% to win the division. |
