William Hill has them at -430 to go to SB and +105 to win SB. Nothing for AFC winning SB.

Westgate has them at -500 to go to SB, patriots at +100 to win SB, and -160 for AFC to win SB.

Stations has them at -500 to go to SB.

Any odds I didn't include were because the casino isn't offering bets on it, AFAICT.

AFC was -3 most everywhere before this weekend. Can't see anyway the quarterfinals games changed those odds much.

Pinnacle has the Patriots at -400 to beat Jacksonville.

80% / 60% on the Patriots / AFC odds seem about right

(With -500 elsewhere, the odds on the AFC champion has a vig of 0.6% doing nothing more than taking the best available -- quite a bit better than the usual 4.5%. Hard to believe anyone could do much worse than break even just doing that for all their bets)

Wynn has the Pats at -425, meaning the Jags would have to win about one of 5 if they played 5 times for it to be a break even bet.

I can't see Bortles beating Brady 1 out of 5 times in a game like this.

Maybe 1 out of 12 times would seem about right to me.

It looks like a good bet to me. The spread is much trickier.

Maybe I'll eat a lot of chalk.

Take a plunge.

Hope I don't drown.



Also, a fair line according to the linked converter with a 9 point spread would be -545.

The deal on the moneyline favorite gets better as the payout gets smaller.

-545 with a house edge, -417 with no edge. "Approximately"

Westgate is showing AFC +3 now.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

many stories out there that Brady has a hand injury. he skipped practice on Thursday and was seen wearing a glove on his throwing hand. spread has dropped to 7.5

anybody who bet the Jags at +9 can get a pretty nice middle
