Down 2. I have the tiebreaker (bench points). Have Seattle's D and Russell Wilson.

Seattle's D stops the Eagles on 4th down. I get two points to tie (win) the game.

Russel Wilson takes a knee on the last two plays of the game. Drops from 22 to 19 yards. I lose by 1.

And I won't even get into how I win by 20 if I started the Vikings D, whom I benched because they haven't done dick in a month.

Now I'm in 2nd place in my division, one game behind a team I swept.

A couple years ago I was winning by 5 or 6. The opposing team had no players left to play. I had 4 plays still in play with around 5 minutes left in each game

My RB lost a fumble. My quarterback threw a pick 6. My D was the on same team as my QB so they lost points as well. I want to say I lost a point or two some other way. Ending up losing by a couple points

Not me but it was a playoff game a couple years ago.

One team was up by 20-22 I wanna say and no one left, the other team had Matt Stafford and Justin Tucker left for a MNF matchup. Tucker basically dragged him back into it scoring like 15 points but Stafford couldn't do anything that night. Anyway, Tucker hits a 50 yarder and puts him up by 1. Sure enough, very next drive Stafford throws a pick and he goes down by 1, Stafford never got the ball again and game over.

Finals. Down by 2. Have Giants kicker. Giants up 7 and milking the clock. Red zone. 3rd and long. Figured one more run to keep the clock running surely Bradshaw won't score from here...they will kick the FG and I'll win the $2000 pot. Hands off to Bradshaw. Touchdown. Lose by one.

Without going into specifics for each one, I am 2-1 in games decided by 0.1 points.

One of those games I won because the play was overturned and the Tenn RB was ruled OOB at the 1 yard line, Tenn kicked the FG to win.

Bro, let me take you back to 2006. Monday Night Football, Bears (Grossman) v Cardinals (Leinart). I was up by like 25, my opponent had the Bears Defense. Cardinals are up big at the half, I'm thinking the game is in the bag.

Second half like this:
Leinart gets sacked, fumbled, returned for a TD.
Edgerrin James stripped, returned for a TD.
Devin Hester returns a punt for a TD

I lose by 1.

Everyone has a bad beat, but that one was particularly fricking bad.

Was that the "They are who we thought they were, and we let them off the hook" game?

My cousin won a game earlier this season by .02 when Aaron Rodgers kneeled the ball the last 3 plays of the game.

That would sure be a shitty way to go down.

Was up by 2 a few years back with only defense left to play on Monday night in the playoffs. Defense can have negative points (have to give up 40 with no sacks or picks.)
Just took them out of the lineup. Stat corrections on like 3 players and I lose by .5
