Nick Chubb's decision not to score an easy TD was a nightmare break for some bettors
Oh no!
Oh yes! Yes, yes, yes.
What, no! No, no, no, no.
A lot of people probably had that reaction when Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb burst off an incredible and then incredibly disappointing 59-yard run near the end of the Cleveland Browns’ 10-7 win over the Houston Texans in Week 10. Chubb made the big play in the closing moments of the game, but rather than run in for an easy touchdown, he decided to run out of bounds at the 1-yard line. His team then ran out the clock by kneeing the ball. It’s debatable whether that’s the right strategical decision. But it worked for the Browns.
It did not work for the bettors who took the Browns at -3.5. And it did not work for everyone who started Chubb in fantasy football. There were plenty of sad and angry folks on Twitter after seeing the play.
I sincerely hope you made it through this situation unscathed.
