My book has Over 9.5 wins (-210).

Anyone think the Saints won't win 10 games in 2014?

Does this include playoffs?

I like the over too, but the value at -210 is terrible. With that said, I wouldn't bet the under either, even at +130 or whatever it might be.

Would be shocked if we don't win 10.

if the over is -210, the under is probably closer to +170

If allowed and depending on the +/-, I'd consider bumping it to 10.5 and hitting the over.

Keep in mind, this isn't what they think what will happen, but they're trying to get money moving.

although it should be, you're giving the book way too much credit

Can you buy a half a game and bump it to 10 even? That way at worst this season (10-6), you'd still push and I'm sure that would lower the line into < -170.

Either way, we're all homers, but I really do expect double digit wins from our boys this season.

That's what I was thinking, but at the same time I feel like there is a very low (if any) chance the Saints don't win 10 games this year.

in this case, I guarantee you they'd give a little more on the under because like paddy said, they want people to bet that...it'll probably go up to 10.5 when the season starts

The under is +170 and more wins can't be bought.

It's a very strange total and odds.

Wow. As long as they allow a push if they win 10 games, I would hammer that.

I've sports gambled a good bit in my life

And sucks you can't buy a game. They clearly know what they are doing, damn it!!!

My buddy went to a sportsbook recently and saints were 25:1 odds to win the superbowl so I told him to put a lot down. Needless to say, nobody was there for 30 minutes so I couldn't get the bet in.

I can do +110 at 10 wins in a heartbeat.

I'm thinking about a fairly small wager ($50 or so) on the -210 at 9.5 wins.
