The offseason of the Arizona Cardinals has been a productive one and one that turned out pretty well moving forward for the team.
It’s just that it doesn’t seem to equate to much belief in the Cardinals from outside entities.
The biggest doubters? The bookmakers in Las Vegas, who updated the odds for each team in the NFL to make the playoffs in 2018.
The Arizona Cardinals… they have the worst odds to make the playoffs:
NYJ +600
— OddsShark (@OddsShark) July 5, 2018
OAK +165
PIT -550
PHI -260
SF +135
SEA +220
TB +425
TEN +165
WSH +375
That’s right, a simple $100 bet right now on the Arizona Cardinals just to make the playoffs would payout $800.
Feeling froggy? $250 would net you a $2000 windfall, for a total payout of $2250.
Obviously this is not simply an indictment of the Cardinals, but also a belief in the overall strength of the NFC West and even more so the NFC.
However, if you believe in the Cardinals, in what Steve Keim has built, putting your money where your mouth is would be a good idea right now, before the money line moves too much.
