6 Titans who saw their stock fall the most in 2021

Anthony Firkser is one of six Titans who saw their stock fall the most in 2021.

Similar to the five Tennessee Titans whose stock rose, we’ll also be breaking down several players who saw their stock drop in 2021.

Coming into the season, Anthony Firkser had the opportunity to grab regular snaps as the Titans’ No. 1 tight end. Before the season, he was one of Mike Vrabel’s four offseason award winners, earning a parking spot at training camp next to the Titans head coach.

However, Firkser failed to live up to the hype and take the next step during the 2021 season, leaving a glaring void at the tight end position all season long.

The 26-year-old played in 15 games, including one start, but saw fewer targets and, therefore, receptions than 2020. In all, Firkser hauled in 34 receptions for 291 yards and two touchdowns.

Our first player to make this list, Firkser is one of three tight ends hitting free agency this offseason. Did he do enough to be brought back next year?

Let’s look at a five other players whose stock fell the most in the 2021 season.

What are the Commanders’ odds to win Super Bowl LVII?

Washington’s odds aren’t great, but finding the right quarterback can change things.

The 2021 NFL season is officially in the books after the Los Angeles Rams defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in Super Bowl LVI. Can the Rams repeat in 2022?

Tipico Sportsbook recently released their early odds for next season, and the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills have the best odds to win Super Bowl LVII at +650. For anyone who watched their battle in the AFC divisional round, it’s understandable why they’d be considered the early favorites.

The Rams come in behind the Chiefs and Bills, with +1000 odds.

What are the odds for the Washington Commanders? It’s no surprise, Washington’s odds aren’t great at +5000, tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings, per Sportsbook Wire.

2021 regular-season records:

  • Record: 7-10

  • ATS: 7-9-1

  • O/U: 7-10-0

Implied win %: 1.96

The Commanders have the third-best odds in the NFC East behind the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles. The New York Giants are last at +8000.

Super Bowl LVII will be played on Feb. 12, 2023, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Texans tied for the worst odds to win Super Bowl LVII

The Houston Texans are tied for the worst odds to win Super Bowl LVII. How long are the odds for Houston?

Imagine if the Houston Texans won Super Bowl LVII.

The world champion scenario is one that Houston sports fans think about at some point during every offseason. However, much of the Texans’ chances to win the Super Bowl have to do with the composition of the team. Currently, the Texans are coming off a 4-13 season, their second straight four-win campaign, and are on the precipice of completing the rebuild under general manager Nick Caserio.

The Texans are also on their third coach in as many seasons in Lovie Smith, who is getting his third chance to coach an NFL team. Houston is also devoid of superstar talent, the likes of which they had heading into the 2019 season when J.J. Watt, DeAndre Hopkins, and Deshaun Watson featured prominently.

According to the Sportsbook Wire via Tipico odds, it would be a miracle for the Texans to win the Super Bowl at the end of the 2022 season. Houston currently has +10,000 odds to come out victorious in the Big Game in Glendale, Ariz., next February.

Houston was 8-9 against the spread in 2021, and their over/under was also 8-9.

The Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, and New York Jets equally have +10,000 odds to win next year’s Super Bowl. Of those teams, the Jaguars and Jets have something the Lions and Texans don’t: first-round quarterbacks. Perhaps, with a little luck, they could have Joe Burrow-esque seasons in 2022.

Across the AFC South, the Indianapolis Colts are +2000, as are the Tennessee Titans. The Titans failed to win their divisional playoff game against the Cincinnati Bengals, despite sacking Burrow nine times. Tennessee became the first AFC team since the 2019 Baltimore Ravens to squander home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.

The Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs have the best odds to win the Super Bowl at +650 each. The Los Angeles Rams, who just won the Super Bowl, have the third-best odds at +1000.

Broncos tied with 9th-best odds to win Super Bowl LVII

Broncos are tied for the ninth-best odds to win Super Bowl LVII, according to Tipico Sportsbook.

The Los Angeles Rams defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday, and attention now turns toward the 2022 NFL season.

The Buffalo Bills (+650) and Kansas City Chiefs (+650) are the co-favorites to win Super Bowl LVII next year, according to Tipico Sportsbook.

The Denver Broncos, meanwhile, are tied with the ninth-best odds (+2000) to win it all next year (seven other teams have the same odds). The Chiefs are the only team in the AFC West with better odds than Denver.

After the 2020 season, the Broncos were given the sixth-worst odds in the league to win the Super Bowl in 2021. Denver’s odds to win the title skyrocketed to ninth-best in the NFL after Aaron Rodgers rumors emerged last year, but the QB ended up not joining the team.

Now, with Rodgers speculation ramping up again, it appears that oddsmakers again like the Broncos’ chances of being competitive if they add the MVP QB (sportsbooks haven’t explicitly stated Rodgers rumors are improving Denver’s odds, but the dots are easy to connect).

Super Bowl LVII will be played at State Farm Stadium in Arizona.

Game day Tipico betting odds for Florida basketball at Texas A&M Aggies

Here’s a look at the odds for tonight’s Gators at Aggies matchup.

Its four-game winning streak was snapped on Saturday by the Kentucky Wildcats but Florida basketball gets a chance to start a new one Tuesday night on the road against the Texas A&M Aggies. TAMU has been streaking as well — but in the wrong direction — having lost its last eight-straight games and sitting down at No. 71 in the NET rankings heading into today.

Speaking of the NET, the Gators are currently ranked No. 49, and since this is a road matchup for Florida, TAMU is technically a Quadrant 1 opponent. However, the wrinkle in the equation is that if the Aggies lose, they will likely drop below the threshold and only give the Gators a Quadrant 2 win. But it will not be easy for the Orange and Blue, and the oddsmakers agree ahead of Tuesday night’s tangle.

The Tipico Sportsbook favors the Aggies by 1.5-points over the Gators while the over/under is set at 134.5. The money lines for Texas A&M and Florida are minus-120 and plus-100, respectively, as of 11 a.m. EST on Tuesday morning.

Team Spread Money Line Total Points
Florida 1.5
-120		 +100 O 134.5
-110
Texas A&M -1.5
-105		 -120 U 134.5
-110

Game day Tipico betting odds for Florida basketball at Kentucky Wildcats

Here’s a look at the odds for this evening’s Gators at Wildcats matchup.

Florida basketball hits the road on Saturday, riding a four-game winning streak into Lexington where they will face a top-five ranked Kentucky Wildcats team. Amassing a five-game streak of its own, UK looks to be one of the toughest opponents the Gators face this season, and for a team that has still struggled to find its identity during the soft part of its schedule, things could get really rough in Rupp Arena if they don’t bring their A-game.

Florida remains shut out of both major polls while Kentucky is No. 4 in the Coaches Poll and No. 5 in the AP Poll, a stark contrast of two Southeastern Conference foes. The matchup represents a Quadrant 1 game for the Gators while for the ‘Cats this will be of the Quadrant 2 variety. A loss for UF would not be devastating to its NCAA Tournament hopes but a win would do wonders for its bubble status.

However, the oddsmakers are skeptical that Florida can pull this off.

The Tipico Sportsbook favors the Wildcats by 10.5-points over the Gators while the over/under is set at 140.5. The money lines for Kentucky and Florida are minus-600 and plus-420, respectively, as of 11 a.m. EST on Saturday morning.

Team Spread Money Line Total Points
Florida 10.5
-120		 +420 O 140.5
-110
Kentucky -10.5
-105		 -600 U 140.5
-110

Updated 2022 NBA Championship odds following trade deadline

Looking at the updated 2022 NBA Championship futures odds following the trade deadline.

Big moves happened across the NBA on trade deadline Thursday, and the odds to win the Larry O’Brien trophy were shaken up as a result.

Perhaps no deal was bigger than the Brooklyn Nets shipping SG James Harden and PF Paul Millsap to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for PG Ben Simmons, SG Seth Curry, C Andre Drummond and two first-round draft picks.

Below, we look at the NBA Championship odds; check back daily for our NBA picks and predictions.
