Saturday’s Chicago Bears-Los Angeles Rams game saw a heartbreak of a ,000 997,000 fantasy football heartbreak for a 41-year-old insurance agent in St. Louis due to a steady improvement to replace the bag for losses.
For 30 minutes after Monday’s game, Rob Huntz thought he had won the first prize of 1 1 million in the Draftkings competition.
Everything had worked perfectly for Huntz following Rams ’24-10 win streak. One of Huntz’s lineups, representing the defense of both the Bears’ and the Rams, scored 92.79 points, the highest of 176,470 entries. Showed the first prize of 1 million on his computer screen.
She texted with friends and called her parents to share the exciting news and took her dog Achilles for a brisk walk.
When he returned, he wanted to refresh the computer screen again, “just to see myself at the top,” he said. “And, then the boom.”
A bag deposited in the Bear’s defense at the end of the fourth quarter was converted into an ongoing play, a loss of 3 yards by Rams quarterback Jared Goff. That 3-yard loss knocked Huntz to sixth place with 18 other entries, and his prize money dropped from 1 1 million to 3, 3,078.94.
“Heartbreaking on many levels,” Huntz told ESPN on Tuesday.
The game has three minutes left in the fourth quarter in question. In the third, Goff made a handoff to the right and bootleg to the left. Bear linebacker James Waffers didn’t bite on the forge and teamed up with Kim Hicks with a defensive hull to bring Goff down the yard.
Hicks was initially credited with the sack, but the official scorer later turned the play played by Goff into a 3-yard loss. Rams wide receivers appeared blocking downfield, signaling a designed run. The bags are not deposited on the designed run.
“It should be a sack,” Huntz said. “There’s no other way to look at it.”
“Plays like these are regularly discussed by the state crew and updated accordingly,” said Michael Signora, the NFL’s senior vice president of football and international communications, in an email. Was, so the statistics were reviewed by the crew and then updated before the game summary was published, commonly referred to as the Game Book. “
Statistical correction is not uncommon and regularly affects fictional contests. Huntz said he lost $ 5,000 in a previous fantasy contest due to a state correction, but this time it was more painful.
After the improvement, five entries remained in first place with 91.19 points and shared a prize of 1 million. Huntz’s entry, RoboCalls (37), won by itself, earning him a whopping 1 million. Instead, he said his 43 entries won a total of 3, 55,554.
Wild swings on late plays occur weekly in fictional football, but winning over ફક્ત 1 million to go over just 3,000 dollars was a daily fad over the bad luck of the daily fantasy community Huntz.
Enthusiastic daily fantasy player, who has qualified three times for the Draftkings’ World Championships, Huntz said he believes Monday’s competition is becoming his “big success.” Despite a drop of 7,997,000, it plans to return to action on Thursday night.
“I want a little liberation story,” he said.
