Chiefs? Over bettors had to endure an emotional roller coaster to get to the window. Kansas City blew a 14 point fourth quarter lead, but decided to go back to Patrick Mahomes with the game tied late in the fourth quarter. The rookie quarterback led the Chiefs on an 11-play, 67-yard drive that ended in the game-winning field goal, covering the 9-win total.
The Titans flirted with disaster after the Jaguars recovered a fumble for a touchdown, but Tennessee ultimately avoided their fourth blown fourth-quarter lead of December to clinch their ninth victory of the season. As a result, those who bet Tennessee Over 9 wins will see a refund.
As expected, the Bears could not pull off the upset in Minnesota as a 13-point underdog, which kept them under their 5.5 season win total. Those who backed Chicago to get to at least six wins will look back at a one-point loss to San Francisco as the primary reason for their bet going uncashed.
The Redskins disappointed anybody that threw money down on their Over 7.5 wins, as Washington lost to the lowly Giants as a 5-point favorite in the Meadowlands. I?m sure Over bettors will now look back with disgust at the Redskins? late collapse vs. the Saints in Week 11.
The Falcons pulled out a win over the Panthers on Sunday to clinch a playoff berth and to secure a win for anybody that wagered on their closing season win total of 9.5.
Those who got in early on the Cardinals? Over 8 wins received a late Christmas gift in the form of an unexpected push, as Arizona pulled out a win in Seattle as an 8-point underdog after Blair Walsh missed a 49-yard game winning field goal in the final seconds.
