Longtime friend of the podcast Aaron Schatz of Football Outsiders joins Will Brinson to discuss Super Bowl futures. Have you gotten the Football Outsiders Almanac yet? It's a must! Aaron applies DVOA to help determine worthwhile Super Bowl bets for the 2021 season. The guys discuss futures in 3 categories: the favorites, the value picks, and the longshots. Schatz says believe in Baltimore but don't believe in the Browns. The Vikings and Saints may offer some value, while the Raiders could be classified as the longshot play this year.
