OT: Superbowl 50 - Who Will Win?

For people who don't think game fixing exists in professional sports betting, go back and watch the calls made during this Super Bowl. Would make a nice 60 minutes story involving the mob/Vegas.

Was Cam Newton in on the fix?

The way he was just standing there immobile the whole second half, and refusing to dive after his fumble, you have to wonder what was wrong with him. I hope backing away from that scrum does not end up defining him.

No excuse for him, but think he saw his guy flying in from the opposite direction and pulled up, as opposed to banging with 1-2 big guys coming head on. Similar to a receiver going alligator arms over the middle.

If he's fixing a game, can't imagine it's being on a play like that.. that depended on other things happening before and after he fumbled. As a QB, all you need to do is throw incompletions on 3rd down, and maybe not check out of plays when need be. That said, don't think for a second he, or any Panther was throwing this game. Denver's D took it from them.

No, Bobby is just bummed at losing, the idea of a fix is pretty ridiculous. Still, I don't understand why he was imitating Brady in the second half. Poor play calling too, the only chance you have against that defense is to shake things up with some quick hitters, or for the QB to scramble more aggressively.

Can't tell if serious.
