Bettors benefit from last-second touchdowns by Eagles, Falcons

A pair of last-play bad beats benefited the betting public for a change and had bookmakers going "Oh, no" on another wild NFL Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles, who were 6.5-point favorites over the Washington Redskins, took a four-point lead with 26 seconds to play and then returned a fumble 47 yards for a touchdown that covered the spread as time expired in a 37-27 win.

Later in the afternoon, the underdog Atlanta Falcons scored two touchdowns in the final eight seconds of an upset win over the San Francisco 49ers.
