$1000 bankroll – Team prop bets
Yesterday it was player props, and today it is team bets. As a general rule, I think that the team props almost always offer more value than the player props – you don’t have to rely on just one player doing the right thing in order to cash a ticket. There are quite a few attractive team bets this year. I’ll post mine, and you can add any you like in the comments.
Will the game ever be tied after the first score? – Yes +130 – $250 – The score has been tied twice in the Pats two playoff games and four times in the Giants three games, so the price seems to be right to bet that it will happen again here.
Team to have most first downs in first quarter – Patriots -2 +130 – $250 – The way I see this game being played out is that the Pats won’t let the Giants hang around early like they did last time. That means that I see them getting off to a strong start on both sides of the ball, and that makes this bet good value.
First scoring play of the game will be? – Patriots field goal 7/2 – $250 – I don’t necessarily think that this is what will happen, but the price is much more attractive than any kind of touchdown, and they certainly could have to settle for three points if the Giants defense is feeling good.
Team to record first sack? - Giants +120 – $250 – I know Tom Brady can be hard to get to, but getting better than even money betting that the best pass rush in league will get the first sack seems like a decent deal to me.
