Betting on the Unknown - Part 2

How many teams would you need to give someone the field in the NFL this year? (Picking the Super Bowl winner).

I'd probably need six and would gladly give four, meaning five is break even. That said, I'd rather give five than take them, and I wouldn't make the bet if the Giants were one of the five I had to give.

In the NBA, four teams requires 6:1 before the season. In the NFL, four teams (Pats, Giants, Chargers, Steelers?) probably isn't even worth even money.
