Jerick McKinnons slide leads list of Sup

[seestyle]

Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs, but condolences to all Jerick McKinnon "anytime touchdown" bettors. McKinnon's crafty move to slide at the two-yard line helped the Chiefs burn clock in attempting a go-ahead field goal with 11 seconds left, but for bettors' banking on a touchdown, his slide was soul-crushing.McKinnon's slide wasn't the only "bad beat" of Super Bowl 57, as several other players' prop bets narrowly mi sed cashing. While the over/under for the game was never in question with 73 total points scored, some may consider the holding penalty called on Eagles' cornerback James Bradbury a "bad beat" in that it had a huge effect on the outcome of the game's spread and moneyline.Ultimately, several prop bets came down to the wire, with some bettors coming away Terrence Ross Jersey with a lucky win and others wishing they hadn't made the bet in the first place. Let's break down the closest calls. Jerick McKinnon anytime TD scorer (+160)McKinnon's heads-up slide at the two-yard line was the most notable "bad beat" of Super Bowl 57 given the play's significance on the outcome of the game. Aaron Gordon Jersey McKinnon slides down at the 2-yard line.: on FOX: Stream on NFL+ NFL (@NFL) His situational awarene s forced bettors to take their frustrations to vent about the play on Twitter:Need McKinnon TD and chiefs ML to win $500+. What does he do? Goes down at the 1. Senpai Dark Wolf (@tommybahama1412) Jerick McKinnon anytime TD pain Jeremy Layton (@JeremyLayt0n) Jerick McKinnon anytime TD bettors (@happyjetsfan_) That's a brutal way to lose a bet, but it's on par for those who've been in the game long enough. You've got to find a way to flush it and move on to the next.Kenneth Gainwell first (+1600) and anytime TD scorer (+275)Gainwell kicked off a night of bad beats on the game's first drive, as bettors holding a "first touchdown scorer" ticket (+1600) and "anytime TD scorer" ticket (+275) looked as if they were about to cash a juicy plus-money prop.KENNETH GAINWELL IS IN TOUCHDOWN Arye Pulli (@AryePulliTSP) Not so fast, my friends. After review, Gainwell's elbow hit the ground just short of the end zone, resulting in Jalen Hurts' later cashing on the "first touchdown scorer" prop (+800).Imagine having Gainwell first TD at +1600 and thinking you had it, only for the replay to show him Darrell Armstrong Jersey 6 inches short. I'd be sad about it. Michael Hurley (@michaelFhurley) A 16-1 payout would have been a pretty nice way to start your Super Bowl, but nope -- gue s we can't have nice things.DeVonta Smith anytime TD scorer (+150)Trailing 35-27, Smith took advantage of a busted coverage, hauling in a 45-yard reception while going Khem Birch Jersey out of bounds at the two-yard line. Had he been forced out at the two-yard line by a defender, then fine -- bettors can live with that -- but for Smith to tiptoe out of bounds by himself adds insult to injury for his "anytime TD" bettors.Having DeVonta Smith anytime TD this play ruined the game for me Nick Miller (@NickMill3r) Live look at everybody who bet a Devonta Smith anytime TD: Terrence (@TTTItan2K20) Travis Kelce longest reception OVER 22.5 yards (-110)Kelce's over/under on his longest reception was 22.5 yards at BetMGM, and what happens? Kelce's longest reception goes for 22 yards. Sure, the betting market is sharp nowadays and props tend to be priced correctly, but jeez, let us have just one.Travis Vic Law Jersey Kelce's longest reception was 22.5 yards. First three catches were 22, 20, 18. Kevin Rogers (@VIROGERS) Boston Scott OVER 8.5 rushing yards (-110)Scott's rushing yards prop OVER 8.5 rushing yards looked like an easy first-quarter cash with his first carry totaling nine yards, but .I had the misfortune of being a sorry soul who had Boston Scott over 8.5 rushing yards tonightHe had a 9 yard carry on his first touch of the opening driveHe ended the game with 2 more carries totaling -1 yardEnds with 8 yards. Sigh Pistol Pete (@PeteOfTheMoment) Here's to hoping Super Bowl 58 doesn't lead to as many bad beats, but we all know it inevitably will.
