On Saturday night, NFL fans witnessed a wild game in the Wild Card round in the playoffs between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars came back from a 27-0 deficit and won the game in the final seconds. The result of the game did little favors for a lot of bettors. According to business reporter Darren Rovell, one bettor bets $1.4 million on the Chargers when they were up 27-0 in the first half.

Certainly, this did not end well for the bettor as the Jaguars made a miraculous comeback. However, the fans on social media absolutely tore the bettor apart for betting this much money.
