Head oddsmaker Dave Johnson had the following to say regarding the prop bet, “Tampa has started strong, but their first three series were against the worst teams in the league which include Detroit, Washington, and Oakland.
The 1st game of the Boston series was a scrape-by win, and I can see their luck ending very soon. Players love these types of bets especially fans of the team involved so we expect to take some serious action from players in and around Tampa Bay.” SportsBettingOnline.ag is one of the most respected online sportsbooks in the industry, offering wagering on the NFL and all major sporting events.
