Wow, the Big Game was great, but now football’s gone until the fall, right? Nope! Ladies and Gentlemen, for the first time in almost three years, we have XFL action starting this week as the Seattle Sea Dragons take on the D.C. Defenders. Here’s what you need to know to (responsibly) make the most out of this sweet offer from DraftKings.
Honestly, this is a pretty great week to do some research to get ahead of Vegas. There isn’t much data on these team compositions, so doing a little research on this rebooted league can go a long way. These teams are newly formed, so we have to rely on the coaching staff to predict how these games will go. The Dragons, coached by June Jones, will most likely be running a very pass-heavy offense. Conversely, the Defenders’ coach Gregg Williams loves blitzing more than I love beer.
The Dragons are led by the legendary Cowboys quarterback Ben DiNucci whose main target will probably be NFL burnout, get it? Burn? Josh Gordon. D.C. sports a variety of QBs who are lethal with their legs, as well as former Baylor running back Abram Smith.
The point total is pretty low, which makes me the favorite in this one. The Sea Dragons opened as 1.5 point underdogs, but the line has shifted a sizable amount, and they are now 1.5-point favorites. Vegas seems to like them, and so do I. Give me Seattle to take their season opener and get $150 in bonus bets if you pick the winner with DraftKings.
