Nick Chubb was about to get Cleveland Browns bettors a great backdoor cover. Then he took a left turn just before the goal line.
The Browns were 3-point favorites at the beginning of the week, went to 3.5 and then 4 points at BetMGM as the week went on. They led the Houston Texans 10-7 with about a minute to go and it looked like a push or loss for Browns bettors. Then Chubb broke free.
Chubb was running to daylight down the sideline, no Texans defender anywhere near him. It was an easy touchdown. Then just before he scored, Chubb went out of bounds at the 1-yard line with 54 seconds left.
