The Commanders' Super Bowl Odds Torpedoed to 75-1 the Minute the Carson Wentz Trade Was Announced
The Commie Super Bowl odds dipped from 60-1 to 75-1 the moment the Carson Wentz trade news was announced:
Safe to say our trading room does not like the Washington Commanders acquiring Carson Wentz https://t.co/7VI9WrHGML

Can you blame them? When you have a team that openly fights each other on the sidelines the first move shouldn’t be to bring in Carson Wentz. Who can respect this guy as a leader when he may have rooted against his own team in the Super Bowl?

The only book that had the Commies odds decrease was Draftkings:
The betting market isn’t impressed with the Carson Wentz trade to Washington.

The little movement is probably because Chris Ballard somehow got Dan Snyder to pay Carson’s full salary, plus the roster bonus he’s owed next week:
Washington is paying the full $28 million due to Carson Wentz this year, which includes a $5 million roster bonus due next week.
From now on, it’s Commander Carson.

Not the first time Dan Snyder has had to pay a red head millions so he didn’t have to build a defense.
