McIngvale ponied up $3.46M on Tampa Bay getting 3.5 points to win Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fl.

“Tampa Bay is loaded with talent on both sides of the ball and led by the greatest football player of all time in Tom Brady, so I’m betting big on the Bucs who have overcome tough matchups throughout this postseason,” McIngvale said in a release from DraftKings.

Mattress Mack hasn’t stopped making huge bets on some of the biggest stages in sports despite losing some of them. He bet against the Chiefs during last year’s Super Bowl run. He bet against them during the Divisional Round of the playoffs when playing against the Houston Texans and again during Super Bowl LIV when they played against the San Francisco 49ers. Overall, he’s 0-3 with his large NFL Playoff pick.
This bet topped the wager with BetMGM of $2.3 million on Tampa Bay last week placed last week in Nevada.
