If you're bad, you're trailing and need to score. Unlike the market for most points, the game situation has little effect on a team scoring at league-low rates.
Like the Jaguars in their (pathetic) prime, we want teams that manage to avoid scoring touchdowns and rarely get near the end zone, and when they do, they kick (and miss) field goals or turn the ball over.Īs with most NFL betting markets, there are minimal secrets. The basic logic that we used to determine who will score a lot in the coming season can be applied here in reverse.

The Jacksonville Jaguars were full value for their last-place finish in 2021, scoring just 253 points in an offensive horror show. While it was tricky to remember which was the highest-scoring team in 2021, it's far easier to recall the team at the bottom of the list. Pritzker.We looked at the NFL through an optimistic lens when we tried to find value in the team to score the most points - a market that's difficult to guess in retrospect. (He later issued a statement clarifying that he backs the “entire Republican slate: from Shannon Teresi for comptroller, to Darren Bailey for governor.”) Dan Brady, who is running as a Republican for Illinois secretary of state, was similarly cagey about the guy his party nominated to challenge J.B. (Cox organized buses to DC on January 6 and called the former vice president a “traitor” but says he only attended the rally that preceded the riot.) Meanwhile, in Illinois, some Republican state leaders have been twisting themselves into pretzels in their effort to avoid expressing direct support for Darren Bailey, their party’s gubernatorial nominee who can't seem to stop calling Chicago a "hell hole." Illinois House Minority Leader Jim Durkin, who was hounded by reporters after failing to mention Bailey even once in a recent speech, has seemed reluctant to say the nominee’s name explicitly: “I support the ticket,” he told reporters this week. “He’s not, in my opinion, mentally stable,” Hogan said in a radio interview, describing Cox as a “QAnon whack job” who “wanted to hang my friend, Mike Pence” - a reference to the far-right Republican’s involvement in the Capitol insurrection. In Maryland, outgoing Republican Governor Larry Hogan has repeatedly trashed Dan Cox, the GOP nominee who could replace him. (Walker, for his part, has claimed he never denied having four kids and has rejected allegations of domestic violence.) Walker's campaign is also plagued by his seeming inability to say anything coherent on the issues (e.g., his remarks about “ China’s bad air” and his comments on how there should be a “department that can look at young men, that’s looking at women, that’s looking at their social media” to prevent mass shootings). Walker isn’t far behind incumbent Raphael Warnock in the polls. Still, the former athlete's campaign has been held back by scrutiny over his past, which includes disturbing allegations of domestic violence as well as incessant lying about his business career and the number of children he has. Oz, who may or may not even live full-time in the state he wants to represent in the Senate, is losing ground in Pennsylvania to John Fetterman, thanks in large part to the Democrat’s savvy media strategy and the clumsiness of Oz's campaign.

There’s a lot of crossover there, obviously, but the first camp includes Mehmet Oz, a former TV doctor who apparently believes raw asparagus belongs in a crudité, and Herschel Walker, the former football great whose own campaign staff reportedly regards him as a “pathological liar.” Dr. He didn’t mention any of those candidates directly, but he almost certainly could have been talking about any of Donald Trump’s handpicked contenders, who earned the former president’s support seemingly for one of two reasons: He knows them from television, or they’re loyalists who have organized their campaigns almost entirely around his 2020 election lies. “Candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome.” Senate races are just different,” he told attendees at a Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce luncheon.
“I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate. Speaking at an event in Kentucky on Thursday, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell cast doubt on the prospect of Republicans retaking the upper chamber, suggesting that many of his party’s nominees may be too weak to win. But the last several weeks have given them a few reasons to scale back that optimism - and not just because of the legislative hot streak Joe Biden and the Democrats have enjoyed as of late. Republicans have been riding high all summer, expressing a great deal of confidence in their ability to sweep back into power after the midterms this fall.
