The Miami Dolphins odds to win the AFC East were still an incredible value at press time.
The payout: Nearly $500 for every $100 bet at Bookmaker.com
When coach Tony Sparano was asked about the possibility of the Dolphins making the playoffs this season, he could've pulled out the old cliche of taking it one game at a time.
Instead, he asked: "Why not?"
A retort like that would've been unthinkable coming off a nightmarish 1-15 season or even two weeks ago when Miami dropped to 2-4 after losses to Houston and Baltimore.
After flying away from the Mile High City sky-high from a 26-17 victory over a Broncos team that had been 15-3 following byes, the 4-4 Dolphins find themselves just one game behind the top of a bunched-up AFC East division with a winnable three-game homestand on the agenda.
"Remember that Buffalo/New England two-team race in the AFC East?" asks Larry Josephson of Covers.com. "Well, forget it. The Jets and Dolphins have now crashed the party, all four teams are in the mix and somewhere in heaven Pete Rozelle is smiling in the knowledge that his dream of complete parity in the NFL has been at least partially accomplished."
There is reason to be optimistic about the Dolphins chances.
Upcoming on the Dolphins soft schedule are Seattle, Oakland, Kansas City, St. Louis and San Francisco - a combined 9-31.
Really, this could be a great bet. And Bookmaker.com is giving away from cash with your initial deposit - up to 20 percent free cash on that initial deposit in fact.
