Why would anyone make that sucker bet? And what would it prove if they did (aside from the fact that they are dumb enough to bet an even odds parlay on two of denver's toughest remaining road games)?
Just to explain this a little further: if we were to assume Denver has a 75 percent chance of winning each game (a really high estimate for road games against quality opponents), the probability of winning your proposed bet is 3/4 times 3/4, or 9/16: barely more than 50 percent.
