The latest Super Bowl LII odds are out, and if you guessed that the New England Patriots are the favorite, you guessed right. There is news out of Gillette Stadium that QB Tom Brady may have injured his throwing hand on Wednesday. He wore red gloves to practice on Thursday. That could be a fashion statement, a way to protect his sore hand, or some misdirection by master-coach Bill Belichick. Whatever the case may be things are heating up for this weekend’s games.
There’s been some talk by Jag’s corner Jalen Ramsey. He guaranteed that Jacksonville go to this year’s Super Bowl. The Pats said little nothing. But a pronouncement such as Ramsey’s can often be a kiss of death for a team. We’ll see, as the real taking happens on the field.
