Is your team involved in the “Suck For Luck Sweepstakes?” Teams are jockeying for position right now for the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft, and courtesy of BetOnline Sportsbook, you can bet on which team will finish with the worst record in football this year and claim arguably the second biggest prize in the NFL!
Right now, the team with the inside track to the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft is the Indianapolis Colts (Odds To Win the No. 1 Pick in the NFL Draft: 2.65 to 1 @ BetOnline Sportsbook). And why not? The Colts are the only team that is 0-6 in football right now, and without QB Peyton Manning making any signs of a comeback in the near future, there is no reason to think that there are that many wins in this team’s future. The bad news is that there are two games against Jacksonville still to come, and the AFC South is putrid this year. Parlay that with the fact that the Colts have been relatively competitive over the course of the last five weeks, and the makings might be there for a few more wins than we need for them to finish the job this year.
There’s no team that needs to win the Suck For Luck Sweepstakes more than the Miami Dolphins (Odds To Win Suck For Luck Sweepstakes: 3.00 to 1 @ BetOnline Sportsbook). The Dolphins were ready to exile QB Chad Henne at the start of the year, and now that he is on injured reserve, he has surely thrown his final pass for the team. QB Matt Moore takes over now, and he was the man who helped bring Carolina to the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft as well. We know that he is more than qualified for the job to make Miami an 0-16 team. The AFC East is a bear, unlike the AFC South, and more importantly, whomever the next head coach is (because we know that Tony Sparano is a lame duck) is going to need a new face of the franchise to bring into Miami’s new stadium next year. Andrew Luck is the perfect face for this team, and there is no team that will be hurt more by not having the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft than the Fins.
The St. Louis Rams (Odds To Win the No. 1 Pick in the NFL Draft: 3.40 to 1 @ BetOnline Sportsbook) are the other winless team in the league right now at 0-5, and they are the only one of the bunch to be a not-so-perfect 0-5 ATS as well. QB Sam Bradford is banged up, but the team is clearly making an effort at winning. Picking up WR Brandon Lloyd will only help this offense, so we’re not all that sure, especially with the majority of last year’s 7-9 team still together, if this team will ultimately have enough losses to be considered the worst team in football.
Finally, keep an eye out for the (Minnesota Vikings Odds To Win the No. 1 Pick in the NFL Draft: 6.50 to 1 @ BetOnline Sportsbook). The Vikes only have one win, and they are turning the football over to QB Christian Ponder, presumably for the rest of the year. Unless Ponder is absolutely atrocious, we don’t see Minnesota taking Luck with the top pick in the draft, but what we do see is a team that is willing to make amends for the horrible Herschel Walker deal that it made with the Dallas Cowboys all those years ago that helped build that dynasty. Again, we have to remember that there are still two games with the Green Bay Packers and one with the Detroit Lions left, games which are basically guaranteed losses. Things aren’t getting any better this year for the Vikes, and their win tally at the end of the year should show it.
