The 2024-25 Mock Gambling Thread - WEEK 3 - Best takes the lead!


Slug

Recommended Posts

Best edges out our previous leader to take a slim lead going into Week 3!  The season is young and the entire board is still within 1 week of first place.  Will Best be our first multi-week leader of the year?

 

########## Week 2 Results ##########

Feature Game: Buffalo Bills (+1.5) @ Miami Dolphins
The Bills absolutely stomp the 'phins, winning by a score of 32.5(31+1.5)-10.  Bets on Buffalo win.

 

QUESTIONS
1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Bills TD, Bills FG, Bills safety, Dolphins TD, Dolphins FG, Dolphins safety, or other? ($200 for the correct call)
A 17 yard Allen to Cook connection for a TD puts Buffalo on the board first.  Bills TD is the call.
 
2) Which team in the Feature Game will win the time of possession battle? ($200 for the right answer)
At least Miami won something?  The Dolphins held the ball for 36:19 to the Bills' 23:41.
 

3) Which team will score LAST in NY Giants @ Washington? ($200 for the correct team)
The Commanders' Austin Siebert hits a game winning 30 yarder to finish the game and set a new franchise record for field goals in a single game (7).
 

4) Chicago @ Houston - Over/under 45.5 points? ($200 for the right guess)
Houston tops the Bears 19-13 for a combined score of 32.  The under gets it.
 

5) Call the winners:
Pittsburgh at Denver
Cleveland at Jacksonville
LA Chargers at Carolina
($100 for each correctly named winner, $200 bonus if you hit all 3)
A sweep for the road teams!
