I thought I lost it, so I went back a few weeks ago and made more bets, but I found the bet receipt that I made for us to win the AFC Championship, Burrow to win MVP, and us to win the Super Bowl!
If all 3 happen, I'll win $6,100!
When we make the Super Bowl, I might go and put a grand or more on us to win it!
Obviously, none of that compares to what it will mean that we as a team and Burrow won them, but it's a nice advantage!
Did anyone else make any bets preseason or in-season?

You've lost the Burrow MVP bet, but you have a very real chance of winning the other two. That is really awesome. Glad you found it. Hope you get a nice gift soon.

Glad you found the bet slips. Mahomes is going to be the MVP even though Burrow could have won. Hope the other 2 bets are winners.

The first Bills game getting cancelled may have cost you the MVP bet.
But liking your chances on the others.

Should have bet that Bills game would have been cancelled then the Bengals would stomp the Bills two weeks later.. I missed my calling..

Started up recently. We hiit a 4 leg parlay (+1733) for the Divisional Round predicting all four games. Harley bet with me and we were pretty pumped hitting that.

Glad you found your bet receipt. As others said, lost that MVP bet, but AFC Championship and Super Bowl are still there for the taking. Bright side is now you don't have to make a big journey to place a bet at the start of next season. Now you can just head across the river.

I bet I wouldn't piss on my cat on accident after being so drunk due to a win.
Lost that bet very early on.

I agree on the MVP but stranger things have happened. I see a few in his future.
I'd still make a decent amount of money from the other two bets.

Laying a grand on a even payout bet doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.

good job on the embed. You can delete the script line for some reason they have it part of the embed code but it does nothing. No harm no foul if you don't delete it though

Mahomes officially the MVP. Looks like all 3 bets failed. How about trying again next year?

Actually, Joe was 4th. Allen beat him out for 3rd, if you can believe that. It was Mahomes, Hurts, Allen as top 3.

Wow, that's surprising. I would pretty much categorize that as "not even close". To put it into perspective, Mahomes received more votes than Hurts, Allen, and Burrow combined.

Yep and the refereeing has never been better..... NFL is annoying as hell anymore.

MVP voting happens before the postseason starts so nothing that happens in the postseason has any effect on award voting.

That's always annoying, isn't it? Teams play for the postseason and that's also when true greatness shows. Yet, it's totally discounted in the MVP voting. Maybe when only a handful of teams made the postseason, it made sense. But now that so many make the postseason, I would think they could take it into account.
