NFL Week 8 Betting Recap: Bad Beats and Big Payouts

Never bet against Mike White, Cooper Rush and Trevor Siemian.

That's your lesson from Week 8.

The Bengals, Vikings and Buccaneers learned that the hard way, with all three losing as favorites to those backup quarterbacks.

We feel your pain if your pockets are a little lean Monday, especially since each of the favorites failed to get late stops that could have helped win the game (Paging the Vikings: Ezekiel Elliott can't get 15 yards on that third down dump-off).

You live and you learn, and in this case we learned that we shall never fade the trio of White, Rush and Trevor Siemian.
