Risking $3.6K on Nelson Agholor among the 7 most insane bets that cashed in NFL Week 11
There are bold ways to bet and there are dumb ways to bet. These two are not always mutually exclusive, but they can be. There are certainly dumb ways to bet without being bold, and those methods include meticulously crafting an 11-leg parlay with an inactive player behind one of those legs.
What began as a bold bet quickly was recognized as just a stupid bet, and to add insult to injury, only three of those 11 players scored. What a mess.
But hey, what do I know? If you asked me to describe the decision to bet $3,600 on Nelson Agholor to score a touchdown, I would have probably called it "dumb," among other words. And I also would have been the fool in the end, considering the turnout after Week 11.
Let's take a look at that bet and several others which somehow cashed for big bucks throughout this past slate of NFL action.
