So when our friend Peter Schrager had some questions on the upcoming football season, who better to check in with than legendary Las Vegas bookmaker Jimmy...

Having both the New Orleans Saints and Green Bay lose on the NFC side really put Super Bowl projections upside down. Friday Super Bowl line? NFC -3.5. Monday Super Bowl line? AFC -4.0. Right now, the New England Patriots are the team to beat and only would pay a $100.00 bet to win the Super Bowl back...
