6 Teams That Won't Make The NFL Playoffs - Page 10 - Sports Betting

I suspect Arizona, Indy will drop out of there.

The Dolphins need to beat every team they're supposed to beat to go 9-7, and that assumes they're supposed to win in Buffalo. If they find a way to lose to the Colts and Titans, their playoff hopes are done.

The Vikings schedule down the stretch is awful. Just looking at it makes me cringe.

I dunno, I like a lot of people hitting their 6 for 6.

4-4 probably gets them there. With houston most likely having absolutely zero to play for in that last game i think they're a favorite to make the playoffs in that scenario. even so, i think anybody with both miami and indy in their picks is damn near toast at this point and should be looking to buy out.

Not in great shape, but if Minnesota or Miami somehow sneaks in I sweep. I think I break even if Arizona makes it in.

Miami, Oakland, and Indy are great shots. Have you looked at the AFC wild card standings? Even if you assume Pitt/Balt will take one slot, who the hell else is going to get the other spot other than those three? Worried about Cincy or SD?

I'm less concerned about other teams, just worried that those three are outperforming and bound to come crashing down.

Outperforming what? Miami isn't getting lucky. They should be 5-2 at least.

+1 Miami is definitely not. Indy probably is but they've also lost at home to Jacksonville so you can maybe wash that with their win over GB. I think they're a favorite over both Cincinnati and Arizona on a neutral field at this point. The bet is in very good shape. Taunt your friends.

Week 10 was great for me, my guy has IND, TB, and MIN.

8-8 for the AFC wildcard is very live.

Colts bet hinges entirely on those Titans and Chiefs games. Can safely lose all the others.

I think colts could get in with a 9-7 record.

13 Lions (4-7) Away Sun Dec 2, 1:00 pm
14 Titans (4-7) Home Sun Dec 9, 1:00 pm
15 Texans (10-1) Away Sun Dec 16, 1:00 pm
16 Chiefs (1-10) Away Sun Dec 23, 1:00 pm
17 Texans (10-1) Home Sun Dec 30, 1:00 pm

Here is hoping week 17 Texans sit everyone...

I am also rooting for Indy to make the playoffs, b/c I have a super bowl matchup future that I bet between da bears & the Colts, which I'd sell as soon as they make the playoffs. Last week, the Colts/Bears SB future was 600/1 odds, clearly the best value out of all SB future offerings, I guess the linemaker really thinks that Indy can't match up against an AFC team in the playoffs.

BTW actual bet is ~$4 to win $2,000, so I'm very excited about the rest of the season. Does anybody think Indianapolas can pull through this year and win real big for me?

What a ****ing meltdown from Minnesota and Miami, i'm about to get shafted by Tampa Bay as well. What a horrible week for those booking this bet also with Seattle and Indy winning by the skin of their teeth, the Redskins getting the upset, Pittsburgh getting the upset... could not have been any worse.

Ya the Skins win was huge as my hopes are pretty much pinned to them now. Given their easier schedule & tiebreaker edge vs NYG they have to be about even $ to win the division now?
edit: not according to football outsiders but meh.

I booked this bet with 2 people and somehow neither of them picked Sea, Ind, or Was. The Seattle and Washington wins just about screwed the pooch for Minnesota and Tampa Bay, which both of them picked. The Indy win nearly sealed the deal for them as well, probably taking away one of the AFC wild card spots. So I got fked hard this weekend
