We look at all 32 teams and breakdown their chances to make the playoffs. Of course the Chiefs and Bucs will make the playoffs, but are their odds so juiced that it's not worth betting? We also identify a lot of bubble teams with plus value to sprinkle a "box of ziti" bet on. Plus, our first crossfire bet of the season regarding the Broncos and Patriots.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/double-down-trent/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/double-down-trent/support

The theme of this week's episode is...what were they thinking? We're looking at you Matt LaFleur and Sean McDermott. Matt LaFleur made the worst decision of the weekend, when down by 8 with 2:10 left in the game, they decided to kick a field goal and give the ball back to Tom Brady. Spoiler alert, they lost. Then McDermott and the Bills decided to play conservatively and kick a field goal not once but TWICE down by 12 points to the Chiefs. We discuss these decisions and then do a little preview of some prop bets and picks for the Super Bowl --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/double-down-trent/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/double-down-trent/support
