Today on Straight Outta Vegas, RJ Bell and the guys discuss Antonio Brown, Draft Kings law suit and early Super Bowl 54 trends teaching us lessons. RJ says the second Antonio Brown isn’t contributing in the NFL in a positive way and keeps getting in trouble, society is very quick to shun him as one of their own, and Brown may be dealing with some serious issues. Plus, RJ discusses a lawsuit filed by against Draft Kings because a bettor felt they were cheated with the MLB not doing enough to investigate the sign stealing scandal, ultimately losing him money. Plus, RJ and the crew talk about the Chiefs being early Super Bowl 54 favorites at -1. RJ says the line will continue to move towards Kansas City and thought it would finish at -1.5 by end of today. Plus, RJ compares understanding lines to movies and books, saying pinnacle books and movies are like betting sites. RJ says if you look at pinnacle books and movies compared to average books and movies, you understand the difference and why they trend where they do. Plus, Steve Fezzik says if you just looked at the pinny lean in Vegas, and want to bet Kansas City at -1 on Pinnacle, you’re paying more than almost every other book in the world, and the 49ers are the best deal with how cheap they are on Pinnacle right now. RJ explains further, saying there’s a lean from Pinnacle wanting to attract action on the 49ers and discourage action against the Chiefs. Furthermore, RJ says he will likely want to go where the sharp books are not because they do not want Kansas City and this can be an indicator where the line is going.

Eli Manning Career Success Against the Spread is Surprising Jan 23, 2020

Show notes

On today's edition of Straight Outta Vegas with RJ Bell, RJ and the crew discuss the news of Giants QB Eli Manning announcing his retirement today and his success against the spread. RJ says it is surprising how well Eli was against the spread throughout his career, with Brad Powers citing Eli Manning being 54% successful, which is outstanding according to RJ. Plus, RJ compares Eli to the other teams like the Patriots during the Belichick and Brady era being about 60% successful, and Packers at about 55% against the spread. That being said, Eli wasn't always on good teams and the market is always accounting for every aspect when it comes to setting lines, according to the guys. RJ also discusses Eli being a great blind/future bet even from his days at Ole Miss. RJ says if you had blindly bet Eli Manning for future bets, you would wind up +200% ROI against the spread. And while Eli delivered titles without a doubt, RJ also says he delivered against the spread throughout his career. The guys also talk about the debut of Pelicans F Zion Williamson and how he is the most hyped player since LeBron, even though he's never played a minute in the NBA. The guys also discuss some skepticism on Zions health, and some predictions on what he can be in the NBA.
