Kicking a field goal before fourth down when it's late and you're down by 10 points is a viable strategy.
It just can stink for bettors. It stunk two ways on Sunday morning.
For those bettors who wanted some early London action and took the New York Jets +3 and the under of 45 at BetMGM, the Jets' decision to kick a field goal late was a brutal one.
The Jets rallied to cut the Atlanta Falcons' lead to 20-17 in the fourth quarter, but then the Falcons answered with a touchdown and took a 27-17 lead.
