Jets 2011 Odds to be Slashed With LaDainian Tomlinson
The New York Jets odds to win the 2011 Super Bowl had been listed at +1600 prior to word that former San Diego Chargers and 2006 NFL MVP RB LaDainian Tomlinson had signed with the team. All odds were courtesy of Sportsbetting.com (see website here). By Monday night, most online sportsbooks had taken down the 2011 Super Bowl odds and an update was expected by Tuesday, however, one can expect the Jets Super Bowl odds to potentially be in the single digits.
Tomlinson was released by the Chargers on Feb. 22 and also paid a visit to the Minnesota Vikings before ultimately deciding on the Jets.
While LT has lost a step or two in the past couple of seasons, having only rushed for 730 yards for an average of 3.3 yards a carry - both career lows.
However, he won't start and is expected to spell Jets starter Shonn Greene this coming season according to an ESPN report.
The New York Jets were listed at +1000 to win the AFC championship this coming season and are moving into a brand new stadium in the Meadowlands.
