The Over bettors in the Giants and Commanders game, which ended in a 20-20 tie. The only happy bettors were those who took the Giants and the 3.5 points.The O/U was 40.5 combined points, meaning any score in OT would've made a winner of Over bettors.Not that either team threatened to score in OT. Each team punted twice in the extra period, and Giants kicker was short on his 58-yard field goal attempt on the final play.Giants bettors were lamenting the defense couldn't stop Washington late in the fourth quarter. Trailing 20-13, the Commanders completed an eight-play, 90-yard drive to tie the game.It was the seventh tie game since the NFL shortened overtime to 10 minutes in 2017.Packers torment Bears backers bettors (+4, +160 moneyline) were feeling confident heading into the fourth quarter as Chicago led 19-10.Except the Packers still have at quarterback.Green Bay scored two touchdowns sandwiched around a field goal to defeat the Bears 28-19.Bettors who took the four points lost when scored on a 46-yard run on a reverse with 1:51 to go. The TD also ruined the tickets for Under 45.5 bettors.Chicago still had a chance, marching to the Green Bay 28-yard line with 44 seconds to go. But Bears quarterback threw an interception.One final insult for Bears faithful: With the win, Green Bay has the most wins in NFL history, moving one ahead of Chicago.Broncos own worst enemy moneyline backers (+280 at FOX Bet) suffered another lo s in a tough season, this time to the 10-9. The Ravens rallied for Brandon Workman Jersey the win despite star quarterback exiting the game with a knee injury in the first quarter.The dagger for Broncos backers: Two crucial penalties (unnece sary roughne s, pa s interference) and allowing a fourth-down conversion aided the Ravens on the winning drive.Trailing 9-3, the Ravens took over at their own 9-yard line with five minutes to go.The Ravens executed a 16- Jackie Bradley Jr Jersey play drive behind backup QB , capped by Huntley's 2-yard touchdown run with 28 seconds to go.The Broncos gave bettors some hope as they picked up 37 yards on three plays but ' field-goal attempt from 63 yards was short on the final play.Doink!A field-goal attempt coming up short by inches caused agony for first-half bettors in the - game on Thursday Night Football.New England kicker 's 48-yard attempt hit the cro sbar and bounced away with 10 seconds left in the second quarter, leaving the Patriots behind 17-7. Announcer Al Michaels thought the kick was good (" and he boots it through").Those mere inches cost bettors who were on the Patriots to score more than 9.5 points in the first half.Going for it helps Under bettorsNo. 3 suffered a 31-28 overtime lo s to No. 10 in the Big 12 title game.The Horned Frogs turning the ball over on downs in OT paid off for bettors who played Under 61.5 combined points.TCU had the first po se sion of OT and had third down and goal from the 1-yard line.

The Wildcats then picked Christian Vazquez Jersey up a first down and kicked a 31-yard field goal to win it.The Under covered by 2.5 points.Trojan horse gets Under bettors led 34-24 midway through the fourth quarter in the Pac-12 Conference title game, with the O/U at 66.5.The Trojans committed turnovers on their next two po se sions which the Utes converted into touchdowns in a 3.5-minute span.After the second turnover, Utah, leading 40-24, had second down and 4 from the USC 32 with 2.5 minutes to go. With a Utes first down, Utah likely starts taking a knee and Under bettors cash in.Except USC failed to tackle Utah running back , who ran 23 yards up the middle to make it 47-24 and crush the hopes of Under bettors.This week's le son for newbiesCollege football and the NFL account for sack yardage differently.In the NFL, sack yards are subtracted from the team pa sing yards.In college, those yards are subtracted from the quarterback's rushing yards.This was a painful le son for bettors who bet on USC QB to get more than 33.5 rushing yards against Utah. Williams recorded a 59-yard run in the first quarter to set up USC's second TD.But because Williams was sacked seven times, Williams finished with 21 rushing yards on 12 carries.
