Football is not only the most popular sport to watch in the country, but it is the most popular sport to bet on. Before the season starts, the best sportsbooks in the world put up all types of football futures that people can bet on, such as team to win the Super Bowl odds, team to win each conference, team to win each division, and over under regular season wins.
On some of the best sportsbooks in the world the Dolphins started off the summer at +3500 or 35 to 1 odds to win the Super Bowl, now some of the best football gambling sites in the world have them way down to +2000 or 20 to 1. Usually a big move like this is because sharp action or wise guy action is coming in and the books adjust the line according. Now, I am not saying the Dolphins are going to win the Super Bowl, but this means the sharp guys saw a lot of value at the price of +3500.
Not only did the phins show a big move in their odds to win the Super Bowl, but they also saw a big move in their odds to win the AFC Conference and odds to win the AFC East. When the summer began the Dolphins were +1800 or 18 to 1 to win the AFC conference, now they are down to +1000 or 10 to 1. Their odds to win the AFCE started at +375 or 3.75 to 1 and went down to +250 or 2.5 to 1. However, now it has just been made official that Tom Brady’s suspension has been overturned and that he will be able to play the first four games of the season the odds will adjust. On a side note, karma is a fickle thing and wouldn’t it be ironic if Brady were to be injured in one of the first 4 games of the season. I do not wish any harm on anyone, and he is a great player, but things have a way of working themselves out.
Lastly, for the Dolphins regular season win totals there are two different totals out their depending which online sportsbook you look at. Some have the Dolphins over under win total at 8.5 and the other has them at 9. From inside sources in the industry, I am being told that the Dolphins team total of over 8.5 is a red hot sharp play. When team total wins are sharp they almost always win, which means there is a very strong possibility that the Dolphins will win 9 or more games this regular season. My prediction which was stated in an earlier article is that they will win 10 or 11 games and actually win the AFC East. How many wins does the rest of the Miami Dolphins news fans think Miami will win this season?
