NFL betting: Bucs-Eagles delivers 3 bad beats in final 6 minutes

The betting gods were in a fowl mood last night, rewarding Eagles coach Nick Sirianni's analytics-driven decision to go for a two-point conversion that covered the Philly spread late in the fourth quarter. Leading 28-22, Tom Brady and the Bucs had a chance to cash both Tampa Bay -7 and over 54 total points tickets when they drove into the red zone in the waning minutes, but the 44-year-old quarterback knelt out the clock at the Eagles' six-yard line to end the game.
