Someone explain to me how the F this line works???? Only affects a drawn game which doesn't exist in NFL?

Glad you raised this TF as it could have implications in our comp.

It’s essentially saying it’s an even money game. You could swap the -0.5 and +0.5 around and it’s still the same thing.

You are picking a team to win.

In our comp if the game went to overtime and scores remained level after the 10mins then it would be considered a draw. No one would get a point.

This way no potential bonus points would be awarded which is fair for everybody.

Yep. Either team wins or it's a tie and no-one gets points. I've seen some silly line bet calculations from whoever these sports bookies are.

Niners came to play today.

A fast start and 13-3 at the half.

Second quarter was a bit disappointing cause we had chances to be about 20 points + by H/T.

Third quarter to defence and offence both firing. 27-3 approaching the end of the 3rd quarter.

Bosa is back today - sacks (1.5), tackles for loss, forcing a Fumble, forcing an INT, he's doing it all today. Elite!!

Think he enjoys his college teammate Chase Young (has 0.5 sacks) being on the field with him again

As a write this - 2nd INT which makes it 4 Turnovers adding 2 Niners Defensive Fumble Recoveries.

34-3 after Purdy TD to Juszczyk.

Niners are back man

There goes the Bungals again......they were just waiting for me top pick them.....

 

[Ridley]

So that went well........................

And the Steelers roll on. Pickett with 126 Yds (14-23) and no touchdowns yet they get the chocolates again and are 6-3!

He has only thrown 6 TD's with 4 Interceptions yet they are 6-3!!

Tomlin's a bit like Wossy. All based on defence and low scoring games.

Stroud showed he was human with that late interception thrown. Still made some crazy 3rd and longs and just gets out of the pocket so well or stands there when he can. Made a crazy play for a TD that got ruined by an offensive foul.

Got some rushing yards today from their RB too.

Bengals dropped it inside the end zone though for the lead.

 

[Mopsy]

Yikes that was horrible. Four duck eggs laid and only one tipster getting more than 1 right.

Can relate !!

Finally flipped on 49ers with predictable results.

 

[Ridley]

Junior got up at 5am to watch the Jags. Not happy.......................................

 

[TigerForce]

C'mon Cows. At least 3 TD win today over the NY GAints.
