    LOL. +15000 for No touchdown. You had me go look at prop bets now. I put $1 on Dez over 175 yards(Win $20), $4 on Dez over 125 yards(Win $11), and $5 on Murray to have 2 or more TDs(Win $11.25) $5 on the longer FG to be over 44.5 yards (Win $4.17). I'll probably end up betting some others now just cause I love prop bets.

    Even though I rarely ever win prop bets, I do love them.

    I have the dez over 175. Desean Jackson 3 or more TDs, colt mccoy scores a non throwing td , desean scores games first td, Redskins win by exactly 4-6 points, dunbar scores a TD, no TDs in game.

    3 or 4 more but that's what I can remember.

    Might as well light $2 on fire. I hope that one is the $2 to win $500. I can't find a comprehensive list of games without a TD to figure out the true odds. You are getting 250/1. There are 256 NFL games per year. So basically, the odds you are playing say that there is 1 game per season without a TD. I have no idea if that is accurate or not. If the average is 2 per year...you are getting good value. However, I can't remember the last game without a TD. Only one that comes to mind was Bills/Browns 6-3 game a couple years ago.

    Edit. It was 2009. 6-3 Browns final. Still can't find the TD data.

    I love props. The best are the ones for the superbowl.
  • TBone14
    All I have on the game tonight is the Cowboys ML to finish off a parlay. Might play some props since you guys got me going.

    Found some good ones:

    Alfred Morris- Longest rush Under 17.5 -110

    His longest rush by game (reverse order): 14, 9, 11, 20, 12, 23, 21. 4 of 7 under that total. 4 out of the last 5 under. One of the overs is vs the Jags in week 2.

    DeMarco Murray- Longest rush over 20.5 -115

    His longest rush by game: 15, 22, 44, 28, 17, 25, 21. 5 of 7 over. I wouldn't call the Redskins rush D stout by any measure.

    I like Jordan Reed over 48.5 receiving yards. He could do that is one single garbage time drive alone. He's gone 54 and 92 the last two games since coming back from injury and Dallas allowed 117 yards to the Giants TE's last week.

    I will play those. I don't like the 1st TDs props but I think Reed at +1400, Helu at +3500 and Escobar at +2200 are too high but I don't touch them. You get great value on them and then the Redskins get pass interference in the end zone and Murray walks one in.

    Also, if you like the Cowboys to roll...you can play the moneyline at -440...which is steep. However, you can play the "Who will lead at half/who will win game" prop and play Cowboys/Cowboys at -190.
  • Iliketurtles
    TBone I just put 5 on Escobar to score first. Then I have a 2 bucks on Dez, Murray, and Garcon. Where are you betting at sportsbooks odds are even higher than what you have. Reed is +1500, Escobar is +2500 and I just put a buck on Helu cause he is +4000

    I must have missed that Murray bet I'm definitely putting $20 on him have a rush over 20.5 yards. I don't like the Morris I could see him bumbling for like a 25 yard run.

    That Cowboys lead at half and win is just tempting but -190 is too steep for me. I almost want to cancel my withdraw and put $250 on that lol.

    Lol it's just for fun man. I came up $17 on the day (Sunday) which is meh to me, so I decided to throw some boom or bust prop bets. I only did that one because it would be the funniest thing in the world to hit it. Plus it's $2.

    I mean they're basically guarantee losses but theyll keep me engaged in the game which is all I care about.
  • SportsAndLady
    0/1 so far. Had Cowboys scoring a non rushing non passing TD as the first score
  • Iliketurtles
    Well thankfully I didn't cancel my withdraw lol. I did put $25 more on the Cowboys -10 and $25 on under 50 points. Won 1 prop bet so far too! Guess that FG was only 44 yards damnit though it was 45.

    What do you mean? Won the first half. Halfway there.
  • SportsAndLady
    Haha awesome, hit a prop bet. +1500 for colt McCoy to score a TD
  • Terry_Tate

    My first thought when he ran it in was "Damn, nice bet by S&L" lol

    Love it man.
  • SportsAndLady
    Bet 2.50 to win $37 I'll take it.

    Need Washington to win by 4-6 pts for a huge payout. Could have used a FG there by Dallas instead of that TD lol
  • SportsAndLady
    I need overtime and a walk off Washington TD lol
  • SportsAndLady
    Damn so close

    You nailed these. Won the Dez 1st TD. Won the Murray over. Didn't play the Morris under. And didn't play the Cowboys Half and Game bet.

    Yeah if I didn't drop that extra $25 on the Cowboys to cover I would have ended the day even. Won Dez first to get a TD(made 2 bucks after all the other losers), Won $17 on Murray have over a 20.5 yard rush, Won $23 on the game being under 50 points, Won $4 on the games first score being something other than a TD. Lost $50 on Cowboys covering -10, Lost $20 on other prop bets. The FG one is a fucking killer over 44.5 and Washington's first FG was 44 yards bastards.

    Still this was definitely my best betting weekend in a long time.

    3-0 NBA last night. Always nice to get off to a good start but these long seasons are a grind. Impossible to avoid bad spells but just have to have more good runs than bad.

    Had the Mavs, Pelicans and Magic Team Under.

    So since I can't bet, I'll be giving you guys a 3 team parlay every night. It will most likely be right, so bet as you wish

    Just open a BoA account and tell them you're a student. Free account and they give you a visa debit card.

    Had a great night last night.

    Took SF Giants ML

    Won a three game parlay:
    GSW-5.5
    Suns-12.5
    Portland -9

    Also had a 7 game progressive parlay that I won 5 of 7 to win some money. I only bet 5 and won 7.50 ($12.50 back to me).

    Looks like I'll be switching my bets to the nba lol
