    Killed my under 38.5 for $2800 too.   Dallas threw it 3 straight times to give Detroit time to score that late td to kill me.   I know for certain there is some shady stuff going on behind the scenes.   Never in my 35 years of watching the nfl have I seen a team throw it 3 times in the end

    Yeah that and the 2 point conversion with a 5 yard penalty. Detroit didn’t care and didn’t want to gobio overtime. Plus Dallas need it and did them a favor.

    @BrittanyWVU

     The Lions had all their timeouts, so I’m fairly certain the Cowboys wanted to pick up a first down or scored in the game right there. It’s not a crazy play call. 
    they knew the lions would get the ball back, and are certainly capable of scoring. I totally get it.

    I was shocked when Dallas was throwing in obvious run situation.  The illegal block penalty.  Of course the prevent defense shows its ugly head.  All it does is prevent from winning games.  Then the left tackle ineligible.  Dallas wins, Detroit covers, the books and Jerry Jones are happy.  That was one of the shadiest endings I can remember in an NFL game.

    They only had two timeouts.   They could have ran an extra 45 sec down man.  Cmon

    Gotta admit, the decisions made at the end of that game can only be justified in the context of rigging a game... otherwise have to chalk it up to complete incompetence.

    No they didn't have all their timeouts. They had 2 timeouts. After the first completed pass, there is no way to justify throwing the ball there. You can't give them back the ball with almost 2 minutes. Give them the ball down by 7 with less than a minute to play and no timeouts, needing a TD. If your defense can't win that game, you don't deserve to win!

    I’m not crying fix… you win some you lose some.  But that was clear as day!    Even the refs had to make a bogus call or else they were in some shit of Detroit won

    Agree Prescott looked worried after they took a 7pt lead as if he knew the Lions would score a TD. The prevent defense screwed the Dallas backers out of a cover

    This week alone, I get screwed by Oklahoma and Toledo in college football and now this crazy ending.  I truly believe now that sports gambling is legal almost every where, it's becoming huge business and very shady. 

    You see sports betting marketing all the time, commercials, etc.  Also sports gambling companies that are traded on the stock in the exchange.  I've noticed games always going down the wire to keep bettors watching, teams dominating only to loose at the end, shenanigans, crazy calls you name name it.  Sports betting has definitely changed for the worse and has become extremely aggravating causing many headaches, heartaches, and lost money due to shady stuff.  Probably finish the year up to the Superbowl and I'm done after 25yrs.  Not worth damage to my health and wallet anymore an_brick

    I was so ready to post about how Mike McCarthy is hands down the dumbest NFL coach in history, and then the fat barf bag gets bailed out, heartbreaker.

After the first completed pass, there is no way to justify throwing the ball there. You can't give them back the ball with almost 2 minutes. Give them the ball down by 7 with less than a minute to play and no timeouts, needing a TD. If your defense can't win that game, you don't deserve to win!

    completely spot on. cowboys ran one extra passing play at the end there. could have ran 40 seconds off the clock. than the lions would under a minute to drive down the field. makes no sense. 

    to win 1u unless noted

    @sgvguy

     Agreed. I’ve been doing this for 30 years and the worst thing ever was legalization. Now every dip shit with a credit card is gambling. 

    Lines move like the stock exchange. I expect bullshit with the NBA/NFL, but it’s even bleeding into college.
