‘HA HA!!!!!’

Marcus Williams apparently decided to take a knee on the last play of the game; not the brightest bulb evidently...

to say nothing of Keanu Neal of Atlanta taking a knee to complete an interception to the passing team...

Just thinking, why is it the kick holder can have his knee on the ground in college football. Why isn’t he down immediately after catching the ball because yhey always have a knee down.

Gamblers. What would pro sports be without them. More honest probably.

Ok gang, fun with numbers. The final score was 29 - 24

1. If you took -5 you pushed. No win, no loss. Adjusted Score (AS) 24 - 24
1a. If you paid up for a half point, you would have won. AS 24.5 - 24.
1b. If the extra point was made you would still have won, AS 25 - 24 with minus 5 bet, and AS of 25.5 - 24 with -4.5.

2. If you took +5 you pushed. No win, no loss. AS 29 - 29.
2a. If you paid up for a half point, you would have won. AS 29.5 - 29.
2b. If the extra point was made you would have lost at +5 with the AS now 30 -29 if you took +5, and you would have lost if you had +5.5 with the AS of 30 - 29.5.

3. Ok, so you waited for some reason and took -5.5. You lost with an AS of 23.4 - 24.
3a. If you paid up for the half point, you tied with an AS of 24 - 24.
3b. If the extra point was made, you won with -5.5 with an AS of 30 - 24.5. And you still won if you paid up for the half point with an AS of 30 - 25.

4. If you took +5.5 you won with an AS of 29.5 - 29.
4a. If for some reason you paid up for an extra half point, you still won, with an AS of 30 - 29.
4b. If the extra point was made though, you lost if you had +5.5 with an as of 30 - 29.5.
4c. If you paid up for the half point then you tied with an AS of 30 -30.

Probably didn’t even give it a thought about the gambling aspect. Tired and they one the game. Take a Knee..

[Vince Ferrer]

But because the Vikings did not want to humiliate the crushed Saints even further by adding a meaningless point to the scoreboard, they took a knee and did not kick the ball.

I didn't watch the game, but that sounds completely made up by the author. The reason you would take a knee is because if you did try to get the extra point, there is a very small but still existing chance that the Saints could block it and run it in for their own touchdown, but by taking a knee, it is a certainty that the Saints can't get the ball back.
