NFL Week 4 odds: ‘Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda’ parlay; five bets that would’ve won big

NFL Week 4 odds are behind us. 

But if all the analysts are allowed to Monday morning quarterback about what they would’ve done, then why can’t we at FOX Sports play Tuesday morning quarterback for the sports betting crowd?

Recreational bettors – the public betting masses – love to wager on parlays. It’s understandable. Betting a little to win a lot is appealing, like the lottery, or in this instance, perhaps a mini-lottery.
