Two horrendous bad NFL beats in one day thanks to last-second touchdowns? It happened on Sunday.
There was the Philadelphia Eagles’ meaningless touchdown in the final seconds of their win over the Washington Redskins that got the Iggles to beat the spread.
Then, the Atlanta Falcons put together a run of two touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers … in two seconds. There was the Julio Jones touchdown that barely broke the plane of the end zone with two seconds left. And on the resulting kickoff, the Niners tried a lateral play that ended up in the hands of Olamide Zaccheaus in the end zone.
So how was that a bad beat? The over-under for some bettors was 49.5 … and that last TD pushed it over.
Falcons scored with 2 seconds left to take the lead. Then this happened on the ensuing kickoff to hit the over. Are you serious? pic.twitter.com/dCdP0SVYMX

75% of bets were on the 49ers-Falcons over.
The total moved from 45.5 to 49.5.
The Falcons scored 12 points in the final 2 seconds.
Over 49.5 ✅
