Betting Trends: Crappy Quarterbacks


The amount of money you could have made betting against Brooks Bollinger on the road is probably greater than his contract.

Prior to last season, I never thought that Anthony Wright was a potential goldmine. I soon came to realize that betting against Wright, as well as other untalented signal callers when they play on the road, produces winners every week.

I started this system in the middle of the 2005 campaign, and it immediately paid off huge dividends. It's so simple; just bet against bad quarterbacks on the road. Do you really trust guys like Wright, Mike McMahon, Todd Bouman, Tommy Maddox, Sage Rosenfels or Brooks Bollinger to be mistake-free in an opposing stadium where the fans are going nuts? Barrages of interceptions, fumbles and delay-of-game penalties are bound to occur.

Below is a chart of recent quarterbacks whom bettors should have gambled against.
