I feel like the Rams should have won that game easily. OBJ gets hurt. Blanton gets hurt. The Rams were throwing to people I had never heard of. Stafford threw two picks. One of which was directly because of OBJ being out of the game. The Rams botched a snap on an extra point. Think about this in totality. The Bengals won the turnover battle 2-0, had a special teams blunder work in their favor, held their opponent to two yards per carry. Yet, they lost. I believe if OBJ does not get hurt, the Rams win easily. When the Rams were down in the fourth quarter, I live bet them at +3.5 and on the money line at +140. I thought they would just need one drive and would win. The Bengals offense was cooked and you could see it. That is exactly what happened.
The Bengals got the best start possible in the second half. They got a gift non-call on that offensive pass interference TD to Higgins, and then picked Stafford the following play. Did I mention how many things went the Bengals way? After the Stafford pick the Bengals would never score again. The Bengals lived on random big plays that happened throughout the playoffs, but could not muster anymore against the Rams defense. I thought the Rams defensive line would be the difference and they were, which helped the under come in. Every sack prop not only won, but also won easily as the Bengals offensive line could not stop the Aaron Donald and the Rams.
I ended up going 10-8 on props for the game. Included in that was OBJ first td at +900. Obviously, that made sure I had a very nice night. That plus live betting the Rams late, gave me a nice close to the NFL season. I also went 3-1 on odds boosts. Overall, this was a profitable game.
The dark times are ahead as we turn our full attention to NBA. Of course, we will continue to dabble in PGA and college basketball as the NCAA tourney and the Masters are on the horizon. I would like to add baseball, but who knows when, or if they even play this season. I love the NBA, but nothing is like the entire NFL season. Thanks for joining us and reading this season.
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!
