Odds change base on probability. 7500-400 means something happened. Spin that however you’d like. I don’t know. Don’t care if he is the coach, but saying he’s 100% not like many are simply isn’t logical.


He may end up being the coach (I don’t think it’s going to happen) but it has nothing to do with Vegas betting one way or the other. They change the numbers based on how people are betting not on the actual probability. If they based solely off probability, they would go broke in no time.

You really believe that is how betting odds work? Vegas?


This isn’t Vegas, nor is it a prediction market. It’s an offshore website that offers entertainment props with limited betting amounts. They put those out to pile in the largest amount of suckers.

Y’all truly have zero clue how any of this works. Don’t believe me, check out odds on jobs in past yrs and these betting pools usually aren’t even remotely close.

Driven solely on the amount of money bet on each candidate by folks who have no idea who the next coach will be.

How do current Vegas based betting odds not mean anything?

I hear you. I know.

I place several bets daily and am familiar with the system.

Odds don’t go from 7500-400 to swing how people are betting though man. Sorry, that is just not how it works.

Think of it this way.
Saints suck. Preseason they were +10000 to win the Super Bowl.
Imagine they start out 8-1. They are now +450 to win the superbowl?


Why?

Bc Vegas isn’t trying to get their butts taken is the answer. Things changed. Their initial read was wrong. They adjusted based on current events.
