Is it really surprising that the proliferation of sports betting/gambling might actually pose a conflict of interest and possibly be exploited?

No.

No. It makes perfect sense. I don't really gamble or pay attention to commercials, so I wasn't even considering that as an option. 

BJT almost made that catch. He's insane.

If we score, we have to go for 2 just to make up what we lost, so that we are only down a field goal. It doesn't make sense. Take the 1 both times.

Yeah I don't agree with going for 2 but that is the thinking

That said, it SHOULDN'T be affecting game outcomes. That is crazy scandalous, because coaches should have ZERO incentive to do anything but win.

And Doug will take that crooked money to the bank on the way out the door.

Look at the number of 2pt conversions and weird 4th down attempts this year. At times when they make absolutely no sense. It's uncanny how betting gets popular and all of sudden coaches are YOLO'ing their strategy calls.

It's hard for a player to dive on a game.  He has to use his whole body.  Goes against all muscle memory, instincts, and pride.  Plus it could look obvious.
Meanwhile, if a coach wants to throw a game, he just has to use his voice. Make some bad play calls and odd substitutions.  Hmmmmm.....

Haha.  Good one.

BTJ TD BABY LETS GO MAN

BTJ IS A SUPERSTAR

Has anyone seen Press today? Is he on the sideline?

BTJ!! what a stud

TOUCHDOWN BTJ!!!

BTJ is the man. I can only think of one bad drop for this dude as a rookie and it happened like 2 plays ago. People can't cover him.

Someone edited wiki lololol

CANT STOP MAC J BABY, WOOOO

Well, we got there the hard way. Way to go, Doug.

This team makes no sense

Going for 2 makes sense here at least

Mot sure which is more surprising: It being a 3-point game or Mac Jones throwing 2 TDs.
