| One Las Vegas sports book is having some fun with the controversy currently surrounding the Patriots, offering two Deflate-gate-themed Super Bowl prop bets. The Pats, of course, were reportedly determined to have deflated the footballs used in their win over the Colts in the AFC Championship Game. While initial reports said 11 of New England's 12 game balls were underinflated, former referee Gerry Austin told ESPN Radio that all 12 balls were underinflated at halftime, although the 12th wasn't quite as underinflated at the other 11. Playing off the story that has dominated NFL headlines in the week off between the conference championships and Super Bowl, the Golden Nugget in downtown Vegas has opened wagering on these props: The Patriots allegedly deflated 11 out of 12 balls when they beat the Colts. Will Tom Brady complete 11 or more of his first 12 passes and deflate the Seahawks' defense:
Yes – Brady completes 11+ of his first 12 passes +1200
No – Brady completes 10 or fewer of his first 12 passes -3000 The proper pressure of an NFL football is between 12.5 and 13.5 PSI. Will the Patriots put the proper pressure on the Seahawks and score between 12.5 and 13.5 points in the first half?
Yes – Patriots score exactly 13 points in first half +800
No – Patriots score any other amount of points -1400 |
