A couple of NFL bettors had the script on Sunday.
A North Carolina bettor put down $50 on a 14-leg spread parlay at Caesars and cashed out for $33,484 before the completion of the late-afternoon games on Sunday.

In both instances, the savvy bettors would have been undone by the New York Jets.
The Jets entered the Sunday Night Football contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers as -2 favorites. The Jets raced out to a 15-6 lead before losing outright 37-15. The result would have cost both bettors their paydays.
The big wins come after the public enjoyed a banner week at the expense of the sportsbooks in Week 6.
