Vegas says Raiders are about a six win team this year, as are the TB Bucs.

IF YOU buy into this (as I do since both teams have decent rushing offense and the Raiders especially have a pretty modest schedule), then this thread could be for you.

Winning six games of course means winning 37.5% of their schedule. So IF they both won at least six games, the chances of them both winning in same week is a bit over 2 in 15. (They each have a bye week of course...TB in Wk8 and Oak in Wk9)


Further, if they each muddle along at that win one out of three pace, we estimate the payout on a Moneyline 2TeamParlay for Bucs/Raiders will average about +1200 per week.

The urge to make a small investment in one or both of these two seeming "sucker" teams can be sated by putting a single Unit on such a parlay each week. Win just twice (while losing 13) and you could experience up to +10 units.

This thread will be updated weekly until we either get our two Wins or we get to about Week 10, 11 with no wins and we then laugh and laugh and laugh about how dum dum the whole idea was in the first place.

Did you happen to look at Tampa Bays schedule? With new coaches and players, they'll be lucky if they win 5. They are in a rebuilding stage. Dallas will beat them by at least a touchdown.

HEY, Maybe I Was Smart After All?

Except I lacked confidence in my own Theory and bailed after Week Seven and a loss of $70

Today, in Week 15....Had I persisted

OAK +630
TBAY +250

Lay 10
Pays 245.50

Subtract the 12 weeks they both played and did not both win SU (-120.00) and you've doubled your investment

Ah well...Maybe next year I'll try again, using a new pair of schlub teams

Hell...could be the same two....heh
