    Yes, I am the one dummy who was watching the Jets-Bills game because I had Jets +16. And yes, they were down by 3 going into the 4th and managed to lose by 17.

    In brighter news I had 7 player prop unders and they all won. Nick Chubb was the only one I even had to sweat, and he still missed by ~80 yards. I am pretty sure if someone just blanket bet all the under props available before season they would have crushed, even with -115 or -120 juice. Whatever the books did to adjust for the 17 game season didn't seem to work (although the books probably made $$ anyways because square bettors general take overs).

    In other news the Saints are the one team I feel really should have made the playoffs and didn't. They beat Green Bay and Tampa twice and didn't get in. Rough.

    Looking back it really came down to the stupid Giants loss. I remember because it crushed a big teaser I had, but they were up by 11 halfway through the 4th driving already in FG range, and then a complete meltdown and they eventually lost in OT.

    Okay... I'll stay on the Cleveland train... even though it got derailed some (until the last 2 games).

    Cleveland +8 at Golden State

    Starting shortly

    I took the over. Same result. Just a beat down. Cavs just had nothing offensively the whole game. We move on.

    If Raiders chargers ends in a tie the sports books will lose millions.

    I have no idea how you let your QB throw the ball at this point.

    Did the timeout cost the Chargers?

    Why do the Raiders kick the FG when they are guaranteed in the playoffs if they don't. Would have been great to see them let time expire.

    I think the timeout was for defensive personnel reasons. The play clock was about to expire. They were trying to prevent exactly what happened on third down. Didn’t work out. But I think way too much was made out of it by Micheals & Colinsworth. If they stuffed the third down run the game ends in a tie most likely.

    I could be wrong, but I think if they tied they would have had to play KC, and the win gave them Cinci. Raiders have already lost by 40 points twice to KC, so pretty clear they should be playing to win on last play of game, which is what they were doing.

    I don't get why Michaels/Collinsworth made such a big deal about calling the timeout. Raiders weren't going to kneel down. They were always going to run the ball there to try to get in FG range while keeping the clock running. So Chargers called a timeout to get ready on D. And they still failed. Nothing wrong with the timeout though IMO.

    I’ll repeat my position.

    Post game Derek Carr was asked by that milf reporter, “Did the timeout change your mindset?”

    Carr responded, “yes”

    I could hunt this down but this will be all anyone will talk about tomorrow and they’ll do it for me. My Twitter game is not on fleek

    Great fun

    I collected a few teasers for tomorrow. Are you a Georgia man? You look like a a Georgia man. I broke a few few rules but ya gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelet

    Druff, you knew Klay was back tonight? You were fading him? Maybe the Warriors feed him the ball and he isn’t ready but they give him the work regardless?

    It was an interesting line if you did. Might have worked.
