maxpower_I Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 A friend of mine bet me $100 that the skins would come in last in the NFC East this year. Obviously a great bet for me, but for those Vegas heads out there, what are my actual odds of coming out on top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TE#80 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 1 in 4... anything can happen. :2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedBNG Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 A friend of mine bet me $100 that the skins would come in last in the NFC East this year. Would he like to try and double that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 What a stupid bet... There are very few teams in the league I would bet $100 on coming in last... in fact probably only the 49ers. Its just not something that is that easy to predict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinInExile Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 1 in 4... anything can happen. :2cents: Yeah really. Not likley, but the NFC East is gonna be tough this year. The ostensibly weakest one (Iggles) is gonna be much better this year with McNabb healthy(er). Both the Cowboys and the Gmen are have vamped up thier teams over the offseason... That's said, Philly is still weakened, so I'll say 1 in 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeownU Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 The team who has the most injuries this year will most likely come in last in the East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIDETHEWALRUS Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 A reasonable person would have never made that bet, but last year I was called a very unreasonable person when I bet $100 that the skins would make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs. If he has $100 to spare just to make a point, then let him and laugh your way to the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTiki21 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Wow, that was a stupid bet on your friend's part. I wouldn't even have the slightest worry about losing that one. What team is he a fan of? Just out of curiosity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVUforREDSKINS Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 your odds realistically/mathematically are 75% that you will win that bet. As someone who is knowledgable about football. I would say you made a bet that you can't lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HapHaszard Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Ask your friend if he wants to cover a few more bets. I'm sure we can find a few people in here that are interested in betting with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdskn4Lyf21 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 About the same odds as Lavar taking his head outta his @$$, apologizing to the Skins organization and fans, and coming back and working his butt off to help us go to the Super Bowl and not complain along the way...

That's said, Philly is still weakened, so I'll say 1 in 5. There are only 4 teams in the NFC east, so it cant possibly be 1 in 5, its 1 in four at most as there are only four teams. Just didnt wanna see you get ripped off on your odds dude. :point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwo40 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Well, not to be a downer....but there are a couple of easy scernarios where this could happen.... If Brunell struggles or gets hurt early, then we are probably going to be in the cellar for the season while Campbell takes his learning lumps. Also, I think Philly is going to be a lot stronger than people give them credit for...and on paper they would be the weakest team. We're going to be tested in division this year like never before....

Just didnt wanna see you get ripped off on your odds dude. :point2sky i think he was saying its even less likely than 1 in 4, being that the skins were good last year and the eagles probably arent as good. the odds of teams like pittsburgh and indy coming in last arent 1 in 4- its probably 1 in 10 or something more unlikely.
