200 Yards, -850
250 Yards, -140
300 Yards, +190
350 Yards, +850

Do you want a really "safe" bet that has practically no return on your investment? If so, you'd want to take the 150 Yards line for Tua. This means that you would have to bet $2,500 in order to win $100 back - if Tua didn't pass for 150 yards minimum, you'd lose your bet.

If you want to go for a long shot bet and think that Tua is going to have a big game, you'd probably want to target the 350 Yards line, which pays out at a very nice +850.

This means that if Tua passes for 350 yards or more over the course of the game, a single $100 wager would yield a total profit of $850.
