Vince Lombardi (the man whose name is engraved on the NFL trophy for the Super Bowl winning team) once said, “Football is a game in inches.”
Bettors either took advantage of the phrase or lamented it when the G-Men won 23-17 at the end of Sunday’s game between the New York Giants and the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Welcome to the world of wacky wins and bad beats in sports betting.
Each week, we recap the betting plays that have caused some people to cash in and others to tear up tickets in frustration. It is important”.
Dive into the craziness of the week!
inch problem
Bettors on both sides were nervous in the final minutes of the Giants-Jaguars game.
Giants boosted by big runs by Saquon Barkley (13, 20 yards) and quarterback Daniel Jones (15) – +3 in the FOX bet, despite entering the game with a better record (5-1 vs. 2-4) Regardless – got a 34-yard field goal by Graham Gano to extend the lead to 6 points in 1:04.
The Jaguars took over at age 25 after a touchback. Consider the subsequent ebb and flow.
– At 1 and 10 for the Jaguars, Trevor Lawrence was sacked, but the play was ruled out by defensive holding with 51 seconds remaining.
– On the ensuing play, Lawrence had a pass intercepted by Fabian Moreau in midfield, but the play was swept as the Giants were called to use an illegal hand.
– Jaguars given a new lease of life at 45, began throwing incomplete passes, were called for a false start, threw two more incomplete passes, went fourth down and went to 15 with 22 seconds remaining. became.
– Lawrence then completed a pass down the middle 28 yards to Marvin Jones Jr. for the Giants’ 32 and a first down. Wait, there’s more…
– Dexter Lawrence was called for roughing up passers on play, giving the Jaguars 15 move yards and the Giants 17 move yards.
– 5 seconds remaining after 2 incomplete passes. On third down, Trevor Lawrence completed a pass to Christian Kirk. But after all of that, Kirk was tackled at the 1-yard line by Xavier McKinney and Julian Love as time expired.
So the Jaguars moneyline bettor was 1 yard and an extra point from cash-in. Also, an over/under (43.5 points total) he bettor would have won by a touchdown. I’m not sure if the moneyline jag or the over is more painful.
Jacksonville skeptics cashed in as the Jaguars are 0-5 straight up (SU) as the favorites since 2020.
1 bettor, book cashed in at Panthers
The Tampa Buccaneers were 13.5 points favorite over the Carolina Panthers in the Fox Bet starting third-string quarterback (PJ Walker) and led by interim coach after Matt Rule was fired . October 10th.
BetMGM data analyst John Ewing tweeted that bettors were all over Tampa Bay.
One bettor who plummeted $5,000 (+500 in some books) on the Panthers moneyline couldn’t be dissuaded.
Finals: Panthers 21, Buccaneers 3.
The bettor won $25,000.
no more kamala carry
Parlay bettors were unable to cash in their 5-way in-game parlay in Thursday night’s New Orleans vs. Arizona match as Alvin Kamara failed to score a carry in the final 22 ½ minutes.
Kamala got a 3-yard carry with 7:57 left in the third quarter.
The Saints began throwing the ball on nearly every play as the Cardinals scored a touchdown on the ensuing possession to extend their lead to 35–17.
Kamala finished with 49 rushing yards on 11 carries in the 42–34 loss. Bettor hit his fourth leg for the rest of the parlay but fumbled as Kamala rushed over his 50 yards.
A $5 in-game parley will pay out $74.12.

College Bettors Fret Finish
In college football on Saturday, the No. 21 Cincinnati Bearcats held off SMU 29-27 as the Mustangs attempted a rally with 13 unanswered points late in the fourth quarter.
SMU cut the deficit to 2 points with a 1-yard touchdown run with 1:57 remaining, but a subsequent 2-point conversion pass attempt failed.
Finishes influenced bettors in multiple ways:
– The Bearcats (-3.5) couldn’t cover due to their TD and a tip pass played a role.
SMU’s RJ Maryland caught a tipped pass for a 16-yard TD pass on 4th down and 14 to bring the Mustangs within one score of 29-21 in 5:09. 2 slow scores.
– SMU Moneyline bettor (+140) expected a chance to cash out with a 2 point conversion.
– If the Mustangs converted the 2 point conversion, the over bettors (59.5) would have cashed in as the game was tied at 29 (58 total points). I pressed game over.
The Sun Devils are inches apart on Moneyline
By inches, Arizona State failed to attempt the winning field goal against Stanford.
Given the circumstances, there was no chance of the Sun Demon getting that close.
The Sun Devils trailed 15-14 and went 4-19 to the Cardinals’ 43.
Elijhah Badger made an obvious one-handed catch at the 1-yard yard line with 3 seconds left.
Upon further review, the pass was deemed correct and incomplete and Stanford ran out the clock.
Take a closer look at the badger’s legs and sidelines. Sun Devils bettors with 3 points cashed in, but Arizona State Moneyline bettors (+120) missed out.
It’s not easy for Weber State University
When was the last time you saw more than two punt snaps safe outside?
Weber State (-3) gave up a record 4 safety when the punt snap came out of the end zone, giving Montana State 8 points. This is the NCAA record for FBS and FCS.
