You Won't Believe How Much Money Vegas Bookies Are Going To Lose If The Chargers Cover The Spread Tonight


San Diego Chargers Football

Everybody and their mother is betting on the Chargers as three-point favorites against the Jaguars tonight.

Average Joes, sharps, everyone.

Here's what Jeff Stonebeck of the Mirage told Covers.com:

“At this point it’s all Chargers money. It’s 4-to-1 Chargers on our ticket count, and 50-to-1 as far as the money goes.

A book being exposed 50-1 on an NFL game is straight-up unheard of.

As a general rule (that has its many exceptions, obviously), the goal of a bookmaker is to get even action on both teams in every game and just rake in the vig.

But sometimes, like tonight, an under-performing team fighting for their lives plays a team that just fired their coach, benched (and un-benched) their quarterback, and sold their franchise.

And then all the sharps put max bets on them.

And then you get 50-1 exposure.

So even though Bolts-Jags will probably be a crap game, we can all root for San Diego to deal Vegas a rare blow tonight.
