All
of the odds that are listed below are based upon Las
Vegas odds that were posted August 26, 2004 and may
differ from your favorite Internet Sport Book Super
Bowl odds, which generally gives you even better odds.
One thing is certain though; the odds will undoubtedly
change between the time of this posting and the day
of the big show.
Houston
Texans
Texans
(50:1)
The Texans are the newest team in the NFL but they're
way better than the 50:1 odds they're being given. If
you take a 10 dollar flyer on these youngsters and they
do the unthinkable the payoff is 500 bucks. I'm here
to tell you they've got a better chance then a shot
in the dark. Future star QB David Carr is driving closer
and closer to getting that Future tag removed from his
star title. I know it's just pre-season, but he's not
a scared youngster anymore, he's firing the ball around
the field like he's been there for years. Watch him
blow up this season. He's got some young skill position
guys that have shown more than just promise. Andre Johnson
will show how much he's grown up since his rookie season
and Dominique Davis will amaze as he did last year.
Let's not ignore the big guys protecting Carr. They
improved significantly last year. If this year shows
the same jump in protection I don't think Carr will
get touched. Corey Bradford and Jabar Gaffney are awesome
number 2 and 3 receiving options for Carr. Bradford
always has been an awesome deep threat with good size
and blazing speed averaging close to 20 yards a catch
last year, and Jabar Gaffney is the team's best route
runner. Tight end Billy Miller, a former wide receiver,
is one of the best receiving tight ends in the league.
Watch the Texans run and gun there way into the playoffs.
The Texans defense has been their strongest unit since
their inception into the league. Aaron Glenn is one
of the NFL's best corners. You could say the same for
Jaime Sharper at outside linebacker. Dunta Robinson
is as fast as advertised and fellow rookie Jason Babin's
pass rush has him penciled in as a key player. The Texans
just might have the perfect combo of veterans and youngsters
to lead them to the Super Bowl. At 50:1, I love the
Texans.

Other
Intriguing Prospects: The Seahawks at 12:1,
the Panthers at 15:1, and the Steelers
at 20:1 are also worth recognizing. The Hawks are loaded
at every position and have shown a confidence that makes
them exciting. The Panthers at 15:1 went to the Super
Bowl last year… and almost beat the heroic Patriots.
The Steelers have 3 amazing wide receivers and Duce
Staley has looked great in the pre-season. He was underused
last year in Philly, and I'm sure he's out to prove
it. Add these three teams to the list. Take a chance
on one of the teams in my elite eight and come out with
a little, or a lot of pocket cash!
