Bodog has the over / under for Josh Gordon this week at 39.5 yards.
What do you say?

What he saidI think over. But barely. I see between 50-60 yards. If they were playing a soft defense, I could see him making a bigger impact. Rust plus San Diego's great defensive backs is keeping my expectations low.
Yeah, I'll be pulling for more than football with him. He sounds like he had a very troubled youth in that SI article (or whomever it was) that he did.Huge fan. I might have watched every game he played in his 2nd season. But the following year (2014?) when he came back wasn't pretty. I won't be surprised either way, but I'll be pulling for him.
If they have had 10 WR's go over 39 yards and Coleman had done it 75% of the time that sounds like the odds are in your favor to me.In 10 games this season, the browns have had a wide receiver go over 39 yards 10 times. Twice they had no receiver go over 39 yards, and twice they had two in the same game.
Coleman has done it 3 times in 4 games played and is likely to go over 40 again this week.
They've had duke and devalve go over 39 yards much more frequently.
This is a sucker bet. You might win it but you're betting against the odds.
I disagree that it's against the odds. You're assuming what has happened continues even though Gordon returns. Doesn't work that way. Things are going to change now that Gordon is back in the fold.....because of his talent. Sure he's going to be rusty, but all it takes one big play......and CLE is going to be behind all day long.In 10 games this season, the browns have had a wide receiver go over 39 yards 10 times.

With 39.5 all he needs is one deep catch.This is an easy over. He’s starting, Hue has said he won’t be holding him back and he likes to run his offense through the deep ball. Wouldn’t shock me at all if he completely tees off.
in most situations, I would agree. And history is definitely on your side. But what is there to "ease into" for the Browns? CLE is 0-11 and season is over. Fan expectations.....the whole nation's expectations are that the game will be a blowout, so why no let a rip? Even if CLE goes down hard by trying to force-feed Gordon the ball, who is gonna care? The alternative is the coaching staff does bring him along slowly, and then fans and media ask why the coaches didn't feature their stallion in the race.Under based on game script, easing him back in, rust, etc. Though I do like him a lot the following weeks.
This is my thinking. Even if they more or less contain him for three quarters (which I'm not confident will happen) he needs one play to break the over in garbage time. If he catches 2-3 balls in the fourth against soft coverage, he'll go over 40.in most situations, I would agree. And history is definitely on your side.

If the under wins, I think it will be because LA double teams him the whole game. But eventually, garbage time should win out.
Isn't speculation great. LOL
Fwiw i cant find any prop bets on Bodog or Bovada for Josh Gordon over under. Where are you seeing this?
Thanks Joe@unckeyherb - I found the prop bet yesterday at Bodog by typing Josh Gordon’s name into the search bar; however, when I attempted to replicate the same steps today there was no Josh Gordon prop bets that I could find on the bodog website today.
thanks and very interesting. I wonder if they realized their folly..Faust said:@unckeyherb - I found the prop bet yesterday at Bodog by typing Josh Gordon’s name into the search bar; however, when I attempted to replicate the same steps today there was no Josh Gordon prop bets that I could find on the bodog website today.
IIRC he went something like 8-120-0 and 7-75-0 on 16 & 13 targets? It was the last two weeks of the FF season. He was going to be a Kingmaker!He went over 39.5 in 80% of his 5 games in 2014 (with a median of 48 yards and an average of 60.6 ypg). And the Browns coaching staff is saying good stuff about him and appears to plan on putting him right in there in a starting role. I'll take the over.
How big are their corners, out of curiosity? Not saying you're wrong, just curious.Agree on over, but not by much. The Chargers have the best trio of corners in the league as well as the best pair of pass rushers. Doesn’t shape up like a game to expect Kizer to play well.
It's a terrible match up but I would not assume Gordon is getting shadow treatment by Hayward. Not at first anyway.Agree on over, but not by much.

I like you @bostonfred and I'd trust a bet with you. Care to wager a Paypal bet on this one?
