Let's get 63 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: into our Thursday Night Football Week fifteen preview. 64 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: It's not the best game, but it's the only game tonight. 65 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: Let's bet Thursday Night Football. 66 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 3: For Week fifteen. We have the Chargers fresh off their 67 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: first win and I don't know how long going against 68 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 3: the Raiders in Vegas. Chargers are plus three a little 69 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 3: bit juiced to the Raider side, Raiders minus one to 70 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: fifteen at BETMGM, the official odds provider of the podcast, 71 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: a total is fifty three and a half. Stuck thoughts 72 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 3: on this game. 73 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: If you are a big fan of any of the 74 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 4: AFC playoff contenders outside of the top two, so you know, 75 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 4: the Steelers at eleven or two, they're in. The Chiefs 76 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 4: are twelve to one and they're in. But if you 77 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 4: are a fan of the Dolphins, the Browns, the Ravens, 78 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 4: the Titans, the Colts, you are big, big Chargers fans 79 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 4: Tomorrow night. 80 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 2: So at the Raiders less game, they drop the seven seven. 81 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 4: They play the Dolphins next week, and depending on what 82 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: happens with the Dolphins this week against the Patriots, will 83 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 4: get to that game. If the Raiders lose, that Raiders 84 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 4: Dolphins game essentially will be an elimination game. And if 85 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 4: you're a fan of an AFC team in contention, you 86 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 4: want these teams taking losses. This is what you have 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 4: to pay attention to. So I think I make this 88 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 4: game too and a half, So I do see a 89 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: bit of value on the Chargers. If you could get 90 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: a flat three and a half, you know, obviously three 91 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 4: is a key number. I would look that way. But really, 92 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 4: how I think I would attack this game at three 93 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 4: is I think that's just a really good teaser piece. 94 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 4: I think this game will be close, just like most 95 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 4: Chargers games. The Chargers. If you teased every side, both 96 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 4: sides of every Chargers game this year, played thirteen games, 97 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 4: and this is including awful teasers like teasing across the zero, 98 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 4: you'd be twenty four and two. Those teaser pieces have gone. 99 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 4: That's ridiculous. So basically they just got blown out against 100 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 4: the Patriots and special teams flukes, and then everything else 101 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 4: is under ten points. Depending on what number you got 102 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 4: in the Dolphins game, you could be twenty five and one. 103 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 4: So it's insane. So I think this is a good 104 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 4: teaser piece. We're gonna get to a lot more teaser 105 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 4: pieces later in the weekend. But if you want to 106 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 4: tease it would say like the Bears, I think that's 107 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: a good look. But this game, you know, late season 108 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 4: division game, Chargers should be. 109 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: Up for it. 110 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 4: It's a chance to try to ruin the Raiders season. 111 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 4: The Raiders are kind of regressing here. We know their 112 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 4: defense has been so bad. They also have some injuries 113 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 4: on the defensive side, and now their offense is just 114 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 4: it was playing at an elite level. Really, it was 115 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 4: playing at a top five level through the first ten 116 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 4: weeks of the season, and it needed to This Raiders team, 117 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 4: this Raiders offense needs to play at a top two 118 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 4: or three level in order to compete in the AFC 119 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 4: to make up for their defense, and it just couldn't 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 4: maintain that level. Now you don't have rugs, it's gonna 121 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 4: hurt your deep shots a little bit. I expect them 122 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 4: be able to run the ball in the soft Chargers 123 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 4: defense a bit, but this game should be a one 124 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 4: possession game. So not much we don't know about these 125 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 4: teams already. And yeah, I think it's a It qualifies 126 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 4: as a pretty good teaser piece for Thursday Night. 127 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: Nothing mind blowing here to offer about this game. 128 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd make it three and a half, So I'm 129 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: actually on the other side of the number, but I 130 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 3: do agree. I think if you're betting straight spread and 131 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 3: it's pretty much in line with the with what we have, 132 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 3: I mean, you're half a point one way I'm a 133 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 3: half a point the other way. But my thing is 134 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 3: just Anthony Winn on short prep. It just worries me. 135 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 3: Especially it's a good thing, right, yeah, right, what's the 136 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 3: other A team also be unprepared. But I do trust 137 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 3: rooted in the spot. Some of the Raiders, like absences though, 138 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: are able to you know, worry some you know abram 139 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 3: and and Ournett. You know they're missing guys in their secondary. 140 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: They're missing you mentioned their deep threat Rugs. Now the Chargers, 141 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: Denzel Perriman still looks like he's going to miss again. 142 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 3: He was, he was playing really well before he went 143 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 3: down bo Laga. He's out with a concussion, so that's 144 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 3: not ideal. Alan Eckwer Mike Williams top three offensive skilled players, 145 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: all popped up on the injury report, all limited in 146 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 3: practice this week looks more maintenance related. Williams did leave 147 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 3: the the last game. But uh could be a could 148 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: be a kind of a sneaky undergame now with with 149 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: Rugs out especially, But uh just I don't trust when 150 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 3: on short on short prep. But I do think it 151 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 3: would be a close game. So that's actually a great 152 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: That was a great nugget on the teasers like, because 153 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 3: I mean, this is is like Rivers over again. 154 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's crazy. And one thing I'll say is, 155 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 4: you know, the ideal teaser is if you go through three, four, six, 156 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 4: and seven, primarily three and seven, and you know three 157 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 4: is the number that comes up more frequently than any 158 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,679 Speaker 4: other final margin in the NFL. 159 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: But if you're you know, if you think. 160 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 4: That the line is below three, then it's basically the 161 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 4: same thing, because you're if you tease the six point 162 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 4: taser to nine, if it ends nine, it games rarely 163 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 4: ever end on nine, But if it ends nine and 164 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 4: you tease it up, you would lose anyway, you know, 165 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 4: compared to teasing it to plus eight and a half. 166 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 4: So for me, especially since I make this under three, 167 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: it's basically the same thing as teasing up from two 168 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: and a half. I think that this this should be 169 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 4: an entertaining game, and late late game Lynn. 170 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 2: Calls, uh, they might not. 171 00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 4: They shouldn't impact your teaser, but they might end up 172 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 4: deciding who wins this game. 173 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 174 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 2: But by the way, lind did it again? Did you 175 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: see that that at last? 176 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 4: Was that last week with uh, yeah, that's the at 177 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 4: the end of her first half against the Falcons ran 178 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 4: it without timeouts, and they didn't know if they were 179 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 4: to kick in a field goal and they didn't get it. 180 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: All. 181 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was feeling good about that, that that Falcons 182 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 3: bet until you know, later in the game. But of 183 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 3: course the Falcons still stoken, stoking Falcon. But I'm not 184 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 3: mad at I Like if I had, if I was 185 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: forced to choose a side straight up for this game, 186 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 3: I'm like, for the rest of the year, I'm just 187 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 3: betting against Anthony Winn. 188 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: That like one principle. But uh yeah, I. 189 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 3: Think the teacher is a much better call here. So 190 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 3: that was that was great. Those are great numbers. Let's 191 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: get our pep talk in early because I mentioned it. 192 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,599 Speaker 3: You know, I'm I would bet against Anthony Winn. I 193 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 3: think he's a nice guy. I think you think he's 194 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 3: a nice guy. He must be a nice guy, because 195 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 3: why else would he still be employed. But it's been 196 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: a disaster season for the Chargers, some of his calls 197 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: coming into play in determining that. So we are going 198 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 3: to go ahead and debt this week's coaches pep talk 199 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 3: to Anthony Win.

And this we have all the playoffs too 256 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 4: for this contest. So by the way, sixteen Jason Garrett, 257 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 4: Oh my god, the yeah, this week I think is 258 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 4: the it's the last most just from for me personally, 259 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 4: the last most difficult NFL betting week of the year. 260 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 4: So like as you go on throughout the year, lines 261 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 4: get more efficient, and when lines are more efficient, by 262 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 4: the way, teasers are, especially if you're going through key 263 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 4: numbers or even more valuable. But lines are getting more 264 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 4: efficient as the ear goes on, market's getting more efficient, 265 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 4: and I show the way numbers every year it's just 266 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: harder to find as many big edges and you would say, well, 267 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 4: why is it this week not the next two weeks? Well, 268 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 4: the next two weeks you have a lot of teams 269 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 4: that are going to be a must win situations. We're 270 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 4: gonna talk about this a lot and a lot of 271 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 4: the time. There is going to be value, and I'll 272 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 4: get into this. I'll write up a piece backing the 273 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 4: teams that are playing for nothing. So there's certain things 274 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 4: I love about Week sixteen and seventeen. So again, this 275 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 4: is a pretty efficient market this week for Week fifteen, 276 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 4: but I do find I did find a couple bets 277 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 4: that I do like. 278 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: Let's start my original first pick. 279 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 4: Two points of the line is moved on me, so 280 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 4: I'm going to save that for my first pick of 281 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 4: the Sunday six pack. 282 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: I'm going with. 283 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 4: The New England Patriots plus two and a half at 284 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 4: Ben MGM. I hope this one makes you cringe. I 285 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 4: hope most of my NFL bets make you cringe. That's 286 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 4: that's usually my my litmus test for it. Okay, I 287 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 4: like this because. 288 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 3: I love this one. So I mean, this is like 289 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 3: your bear's one from last week. It's like I think 290 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: maybe most people out there might go, oh my god, 291 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 3: but remember this is coming from the guy who pretty 292 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: much made my whole year last week by fading Cam Newton. 293 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 3: Like I have never had so much action riding on 294 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 3: one player. I just faded I just found every camprop 295 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: on every side I could and just hit the under. 296 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,479 Speaker 2: So that was very well executed. 297 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 4: It's a great Bilow spot on the Patriots after they 298 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 4: were embarrassed. 299 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 2: Now they have extra prep for Bill Belichick. 300 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 4: And by the way, Bill Belichick off double digit loss 301 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 4: nineteen to five against the spread. That's just under eighty 302 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: percent since two thousand and three in our action Lab database, 303 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 4: what DoD you have extra prep for here? Facing a 304 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 4: rookie quarterback. Russell Wilson, future Hall of Famer, defeated Bill 305 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 4: Belichick as a rookie in twenty twelve. Since then, rookie 306 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 4: quarterbacks are zero to eleven against Bill Belichick. And in 307 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 4: those games they have total eleven games, seven touchdown passes, 308 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 4: seventeen interceptions. They've completed fifty point seven percent of their 309 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 4: passes with an average yards throwing mark of one hundred 310 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 4: and sixty two yards. They average one hundred and sixty 311 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 4: two yards through the air in those games. I mean, 312 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 4: it's just been atrocious. And look, some of them have 313 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 4: been bad quarterbacks. Some some quarterbacks you're gonna have that 314 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 4: are rookies that are are that are poor. You know, 315 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 4: Nathan Peterman is in that list. I think Kessler is 316 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 4: in that list, but I mean you have Derek Carr, 317 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson, Josh Allen, you know, Daniel Jones last year. 318 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 4: Herbert this year is a great example of it. Quarterbacks 319 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 4: that are that are played well as rookies that just 320 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 4: are completely confused, and Belichick will come up with something. 321 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 2: And I've talked about this with Herbert. There's you know, there's. 322 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 4: Times against zones in college where he's looked really confused, 323 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 4: and Belichick took advantage of some of the things that 324 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 4: he saw with Herbert. I think he look at his 325 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 4: extra prepprier too. He's gonna do that with two. He's 326 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 4: gonna throw a bunch of different looks at him. It 327 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 4: would not shock me here if Tua has a horrendous, 328 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 4: horrendous game. He's looked a little better in the past 329 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 4: two weeks, but there's still deficiencies in this passing offense. 330 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 4: There's still injuries on the outside, and I think it's 331 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: just a great matchup on paper for the Patriots. What 332 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 4: can the Patriots do? They can run the ball, it's 333 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 4: a top ten rushing offense. 334 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 2: What can't they do? They can't throw the ball? It's 335 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 2: a bottom five passing offense. 336 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: Well, Miami has the top five passing defense and bottom ten, 337 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 4: bottom five rush defense, so their strength is a pass 338 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 4: defense doesn't really matter here with the Patriocsse. Patriots can't 339 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 4: really throw it on anybody. You can run on Miami, 340 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 4: which is what I expect New England to. 341 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 2: Do here all day. 342 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 4: And the other side of the ball, the Patriots rund 343 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 4: He's been a t I mean so bad. It's a 344 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 4: rebuilt front seven. They're number twenty eight dev away, but 345 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 4: that's not something Miami can really exploit. They're twenty fifth 346 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 4: in the NFL and that same measure DBA in rushing offense. 347 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 4: Patriots past defense, it was really questionable early on in 348 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 4: the air. There's still talent back there. It's been trending up, 349 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 4: so I just think the matchup here is great. Last year, 350 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 4: Week seventeen, the Dolphins went up as p seventeen point 351 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 4: underdogs and spoiled New England's party, cost them a bye 352 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 4: with a shocking upset. I think New England returns the 353 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 4: face how the tables have turned by the way. I 354 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,959 Speaker 4: think New England goes down to Miami, returns the favor 355 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 4: and plays a little spoiler in potentially ruining. 356 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 2: Miami's playoff chances. 357 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 4: Obviously they can still lose this game and get in 358 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 4: the playoffs, but that will make next weekend's game against 359 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 4: the Raiders a lot bigger. 360 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: So like the spot, like the matchup, and this Miami did. 361 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:57,959 Speaker 2: Look it's playing well. 362 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 4: There's still been benefiting from so many turnovers. And they're 363 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 4: ten and three gets the spread. That's the number one 364 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 4: mark in the NFL. But look at last week. They 365 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 4: turned the homes over a bunch. Just there's so many 366 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 4: fluke turnovers that Dolphins get. There was like a drop 367 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 4: Mahomes somehow had like his first inaccurate pass of the year, 368 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 4: but it like the tipped off of a receiver's hand 369 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 4: and then right to a defender. So their past defense 370 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 4: is good and they're gonna bring a lot of pressure, 371 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: but you can run on them. And this turnover regression 372 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 4: is coming from Miami. So try to get the three. 373 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 4: I'm gonna wait for it. I already tease them. It's 374 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 4: a great teaser piece. Plus two and a half up 375 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 4: to eight and a half. I think two of really 376 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 4: struggles here a great spot to get Belichick off a 377 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 4: loss with extra prep against a rookie quarterback. 378 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it. 379 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 3: I think this is a classic New England spot, like 380 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 3: long rest and going to face a rookie QB. That's perfect. 381 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 3: And Cam Newton, I mean, as bad as he was 382 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 3: last week, you look at him and this is this 383 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 3: has been historically the spot to back him too. He's 384 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,959 Speaker 3: foward too as an underdog this year, thirty seven and 385 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: twenty four as an underdog in his career according to 386 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 3: our actionalab the database. So this is kind of a 387 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 3: it's a bounce back spot for him, it's a bounce 388 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 3: back spot for the Pats. I like to call it 389 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 3: a lot. Actually this is uh, this is when I 390 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 3: kind of like, I expect win this game by periods. 391 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 3: So like it. 392 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 4: Agreed, agreed first, all the pressure on the rookie quarterback 393 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 4: to all the pressure on Miami. 394 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 2: New England can still make the playoffs. 395 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 4: Technically, they need to win out and they need three 396 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 4: of the following five things to happen. Browns lose their 397 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 4: final three, it's gonna be tough. Colts are Titans lose out, 398 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 4: it's gonna be tough. Dolphins lose at least two of 399 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 4: their final three. That could happen with the Patriots win 400 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 4: this week, Raiders lose at least one of their final three, 401 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 4: that could happen, and then you need the Ravens to 402 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 4: lose two of their final three. 403 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 2: They have a really easy schedule, so they need three 404 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 2: of those five. 405 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 4: So there's a chance doing they're not mathematically eliminated, which 406 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 4: means I think that they'll play everyone that they need 407 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 4: to and at the minimum. 408 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you get the Patriots best effort here. 409 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 5: I hope you're enjoying this right Action network podcast.

My number one pick this week, I am 422 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 3: going with a team who's matchup I really love in 423 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 3: San Francisco minus three against Dallas coming off a loss, 424 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 3: and I didn't expe like my numbers came out pretty 425 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 3: high on San Francisco. I didn't expect to be on 426 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 3: them as much as I am. But looking into this matchup, 427 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 3: this is this is not a matchup that Dallas wants 428 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 3: San Francisco. If you look at what they can do, 429 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 3: they can play defense, they can cover. Now you know 430 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 3: the defense is healthy enough. Fred Warner did practice on 431 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 3: a limited basis as we record this on Wednesday, which 432 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 3: is big. But you look at Dallas since Dak went 433 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 3: down and what has given them problems. It's been teams 434 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 3: that can play d It's been They played Cincinnati last week, 435 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 3: they put up thirty points, but you look at their 436 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 3: other matchups this year. They played Pittsburgh nineteen points. Philly 437 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 3: will throw that out. They only scored nine, but that 438 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 3: was the Denucia game. And the other Washington game they 439 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 3: scored three. That was Dalton got hurt, but Minnesota's kind 440 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 3: of struggling thirty one points, Washington good d sixteen points, 441 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 3: Baltimore got healthy seventeen points. Now on the other side, 442 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 3: Dallas before they gave up seven to Cincinnati, thirty four, 443 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 3: forty one, twenty eight, twenty four, twenty three, twenty five, 444 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 3: thirty eight, thirty four, forty nine, thirty eight, thirty nine, 445 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 3: twenty Dallas's defense under Mike Noen has been a disaster. 446 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 3: San Francisco Kyle Shanahan one of the best teams in 447 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 3: terms of scheving mismatches in the run game. Their running 448 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 3: backs are healthy enough right now, Mostert and Wilson look 449 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 3: like they're gonna play. You still got mckinnie's probably not 450 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 3: gonna be used, but Coleman, So you got four backs 451 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 3: that you can use. This is the matchup for San Francisco. 452 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 3: You look at what happened against Washington, who that was 453 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 3: my money mine dog last week. I was not surprised 454 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 3: at all that Washington put off that upset. I think 455 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 3: Washington's a dangerous teams for the rest of the year. 456 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 3: But Washington had two two defensive touchdowns. Chase Young just 457 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: took over that game. He scores one, and then Cameron Curlew, 458 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 3: who's been playing really well in the secondary, he scores one. 459 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: So San Francisco really has gave up in that game. 460 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 3: What was it nine points on offense? They should have 461 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 3: really gave it hup twelve because there res ultio missfield 462 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 3: going there. But San Francisco is not gonna let you 463 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 3: run him out of the building. Offensively, they can run 464 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,479 Speaker 3: the ball. Dallas's twenty want to run defense DVOA. Dallas 465 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 3: has not been scoring against you know, above average defenses, 466 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 3: and they've been giving up above average point totals to 467 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 3: pretty much every offense. This sided Brandon Allen and Ryan Finley. 468 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 3: So like San Francisco minus three on the road in Dallas. 469 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 4: Here, Yeah, I think I disagree here, but I just 470 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 4: I just don't have a good read on this game. 471 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 4: My problem is I just I can't figure out sam 472 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 4: Fred's gonna miss Samuel. He went out early last week. 473 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 4: I do know that he just he brings another dimension 474 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 4: that at all offense, and you do I believe on 475 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 4: I are now. I just can't figure out how to 476 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 4: grade and rate Nick Mullins like, and I've said this 477 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 4: before on the podcast, sometimes and you have to remove 478 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 4: his garbage time stats for whatever reason, he's like the 479 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: garbage time goat. But sometimes I think he's the famous 480 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 4: Jimmy g Sometimes I'm like, wait, is he better? 481 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 2: And sometimes I'm like he's atrocious. 482 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 4: So I mean, obviously, how you rate a quarterback is 483 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 4: gonna really influence where you set a line, and so 484 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 4: I don't I just don't have a really good feel 485 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 4: for Nick Mouns. He has been playing well the past 486 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 4: couple of weeks, but they've been playing some really good defenses. 487 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: To be fair, both of these. 488 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 4: Teams have played two of the three most difficult schedules 489 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 4: of opposing defenses, so you know there's some talent on 490 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 4: these offenses. I don't have any doubt that Sanford will 491 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 4: be able to run on Dallas. How healthy is San 492 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 4: Fran's secondary I don't know. Can can the Cowboys make 493 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 4: some plays with their receiver? Sure, maybe it's a sneaky over. 494 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 4: I have just just around two, but I struggle with Moan, 495 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 4: so I don't really have a great rebuttal with you. 496 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 2: From a side perspective, this is a pure stay away 497 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 2: for me. 498 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 3: He was so he was terrible against Washington, Like, I'll 499 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 3: give you that, but this is this is why I 500 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 3: like San Francisco. Based is a matchup play because number 501 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 3: one Samuel. One of the underrated reasons he's so important 502 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 3: is in when you face good run defenses. He's an 503 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 3: extension of the run game in this particular matchup, they 504 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 3: don't need that. They can they can run with their 505 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 3: straight up backs. Nobody's better at scheming up like run 506 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: plays against bad run defenses in Shanahan. And then can 507 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 3: Dallas make plays with their receivers. I mean, if you 508 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 3: watch Andy Dalton play, I think maybe the last game 509 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 3: or game and a half, he's been throwing a few 510 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 3: more downfield, but generally not really a guy that's getting 511 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 3: the ball downfield. He's trying to get it out quick. 512 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 3: San Francisco is going to be all over that stuff, 513 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 3: and they can get enough pressure to disrupt them. So 514 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 3: this is really a matchup play like you like, you know, 515 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 3: they have to win by more than a field goal here, 516 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 3: and I think they do it. I think I think 517 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 3: Dallas is just getting the respect of the three based 518 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 3: on their bloo out of Cincinnati, which we know is 519 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 3: like a minor league. 520 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 2: Team at this point. 521 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 4: Yep, fair enough, relentless, refusing to give up. 522 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 2: All Right. 523 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 4: For my second pick of the Sunday six pack, I'm 524 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 4: going with a Saturday play. I'm going with the Denver 525 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 4: Broncos plus six. At bet MGM, I found a set 526 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 4: plus seven minus one fifteen. I would buy it up 527 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 4: to seven, up to minus one twenty if you can 528 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 4: find that it's since come down from six and a 529 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 4: half down to six, which is what I'll take here. 530 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 4: I do make it just a touch under five. Now, look, 531 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 4: the Bills have been playing fantastic football. 532 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 5: Come on, now, the Bills. I'm making it happen now, 533 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 5: stand up, not come on, assh out. 534 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 4: Over the last six or seven weeks or number one 535 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 4: in offense success right, their defense is playing at a 536 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 4: top ten level. We talked about last week why their 537 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 4: defense has been trending in the right direction, and part 538 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 4: of it has been scheme changes. They've gotten healthier, they 539 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 4: realign their linebackers. There's just on a lot of things. 540 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 4: It's a great coaching staff, and their offensive line is 541 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 4: even playing a lot better. 542 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 2: Now. 543 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 4: This is an offense that only allowed Josh Allen, who 544 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 4: takes a while to throw the ball relative to an 545 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 4: average NFL quarterback, to be pressured on thirteen percent. 546 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 2: Of his dropbacks last week. That's elite. 547 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 4: Against the Steelers batt Roethlisberger was pressured on over thirty 548 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 4: five percent of his dropbacks. So every aspect of this 549 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 4: Bills team is playing at an elite level right now, 550 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 4: So what does that mean in the NFL? And they 551 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 4: just started on back to back weeks in primetime. They 552 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 4: come out and they really put it to sant fran 553 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 4: and they were clearly the better team against Pittsburgh. Everyone 554 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 4: sees that, So what's gonna happen? And they're going to 555 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 4: Saturday during a short week, to the altitude of Denver 556 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 4: to play the Broncos. 557 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 2: Everyone wants to bet the Bills. 558 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 4: Right, which is why you're probably getting some value here, 559 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 4: which is why I was able to get some seven. Wise, 560 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 4: I still think six has some value, And on top 561 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 4: of that, you just have the potential for a little 562 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 4: bit of an emotional let down, a hangover after these 563 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 4: two big primetime games for Buffalo. 564 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: It's just a perfect cell high spot on the Bills. Oh. 565 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 4: I like and I like everything that they're doing, and 566 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 4: I think that they're going to be a scary out 567 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 4: in the playoffs. 568 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 2: They probably find a way to win this game. 569 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 4: I know that Denver's secondary is really bagged up and 570 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 4: they don't have their two top corners still, but. 571 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 2: The defense is still very well schooled. They still have 572 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 2: really good safeties. 573 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 4: The focus is still on taking away the big play, 574 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 4: so I think that they can potentially force Josh Allen 575 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 4: to a mistake or two here. 576 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 2: They can run the ball. Remember it was one of 577 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 2: the things I said about Pittsburg Pittsburgh last week. 578 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 4: They can't run the Pittsburgh can't run it, and that's 579 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 4: really how you have to attack this Buffalo defense. So 580 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 4: I know the Broncos have some concerning issue injuries to 581 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 4: keep an eye on, but this is just a great 582 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 4: sell high spot on Buffalo. I'll take the Broncos as 583 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 4: a home dog plus six at at MGM. I would 584 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 4: take anything at six or above. Ideally, you obviously won 585 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 4: seven here, so monitor the market. Like I said, I 586 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 4: would buy it up to minus one twenty. 587 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have it at five and a half, so 588 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: a little bit of value that five and a half 589 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,479 Speaker 3: is really just coming from I do think Denver, especially 590 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 3: this time of year, has a little more of a 591 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 3: home fielder vanage than most teams, which is pretty much 592 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 3: some semblance of one because there really hasn't been one 593 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 3: this season as far as home teams. I think I 594 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 3: really do like what Buffalo was doing. I think they're 595 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 3: one of the best coach teams in the league. I 596 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,719 Speaker 3: think that this match will be a lot tougher or 597 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 3: a little bit tougher for Denver if John Brown was 598 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 3: back healthy. Gabe Davis has still played well for a 599 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 3: rookie in that spot. But I mean Buffalo is doing 600 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 3: everything right. They're like passing more, even though they have 601 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 3: quarterback that most people, you know, the first couple years 602 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 3: they kind of spent hiding. They're not afraid to pass 603 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 3: the ball. I think you mentioned it. They're using aj 604 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 3: Klein a lot more smartly now with with Milano back, 605 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 3: and they're not afraid to. Like bench veterans like Josh Norman, 606 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 3: he hasn't really played much, so I like everything they're doing. 607 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: I don't see quite as much value, but I do 608 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 3: kind of get it. I was kind of a little 609 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 3: bit surprised Denver beat up on Carolina Lane beat up 610 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 3: on them, but surprised they put up that many points 611 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 3: on him last week. I think this game actually could 612 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 3: be a sneaky over too, because you look at what 613 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 3: buff just how Buffalo's playing. They're passing so much. Denver 614 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 3: with the weaknesses on the back end, but Denver, you know, 615 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 3: they can kind of stay ahead of the chains as well, 616 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,479 Speaker 3: or at least you know, in it with with Gordon 617 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 3: and their rookies are coming together. Locke is making some strides. 618 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 3: So don't hate it, but definitely see definitely see the 619 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 3: appeal for a letdown spot here. 620 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 4: Question on Josh Allen, just curiously your thoughts on it 621 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 4: at it's kind of been a widely accepted belief that 622 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 4: you can't teach accuracy, right for the most part. 623 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 2: You can teach a lot of things. 624 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 4: You can't teach speed, and you can't teach just inherent accuracy. 625 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 4: It's one of the things that people say, all right, 626 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 4: is that the ceiling of Lamar Jackson, that's what is 627 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 4: that what's going to hold him back after teams have adjusted. 628 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 4: But the same thing was said about Josh Allen, and 629 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 4: he's obviously a lot more accurate than he was. And 630 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 4: the argument for that, maybe he's an exception to the 631 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 4: rule is he started playing football late. He played it 632 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 4: in a college where you know, they were a running 633 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 4: team Wyoming in like horrible weather, and then he wasn't 634 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 4: like throwing them all thirty forty times. So maybe he's 635 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 4: just you know, was on a track that was behind 636 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 4: you know, as far as timing is concerned adult track 637 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 4: compared to some of these other quarterbacks. Are you are 638 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 4: you now a believer in Josh Allen or do you 639 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 4: still have some doubts. 640 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 3: I am a believer in Josh Allen. I actually this 641 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 3: is a good question because this is something I brought 642 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 3: up before the season, and I think that his accuracy 643 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 3: issues coming out of college were real, but I think 644 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 3: in once he got to the league, I think they 645 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: were overstated because and I kind of pulled the splits 646 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 3: before the season, but there were two things that really 647 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 3: stuck out when you looked at Josh Allen. Number one 648 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 3: was his numbers. Throwing to Zay Jones, who during his 649 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 3: time in Buffalo was essentially the worst wide receiver in 650 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 3: the league. But Josh Allen throwing to Zay Jones, who 651 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 3: was his most targeted receiver for a good chunk of 652 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 3: his career, was under fifty percent completions. It was like, 653 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 3: you know, four yards in attempt. I mean it was bad. 654 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 3: And then last season he has John Brown, you know, 655 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 3: to throw deep to, but the rest of his deep 656 00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 3: targets were Colby's Lee, Rob Foster, Zaiah McKenzie just you know, 657 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 3: got you know, kind of replacement level players that you 658 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 3: really shouldn't be targeting deep, and he was something I 659 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 3: think I believe it was like three for twenty seven 660 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 3: targeting non John Brown receivers twenty yards or more down 661 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 3: the field. Well, now you gave him Davis, you gave 662 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 3: him Stefan Diggs, who last year was the best deep 663 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 3: ball receiver in the game, and you're seeing an improvement 664 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 3: in accuracy. I don't think that's an accident. You look 665 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 3: at his deep adjusted completion rate this year and he's 666 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 3: fourteenth in the league. So you know, I think that's 667 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 3: that was responsible for a lot of the jump, and 668 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 3: Dabo yoc has done a great job kind of scheming 669 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 3: scheming things for him, but I think he was just 670 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 3: a little act more accurate this whole time, and he 671 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 3: was just really kind of set back by like his 672 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: receiving core. Remember it wasn't I think they even had 673 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 3: Kelvin Benjamin when he first his first year in the week, 674 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 3: they Charles Clay, Jyson Kroum. I mean, they had just 675 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 3: a bottom of the barrel receiver core for his first 676 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 3: like year year and change in Buffalo. Then they got Besley, 677 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 3: you know, Beasley and Brown and then digs in Davis 678 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 3: and I think that just made a huge difference. 679 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 6: The NFL season is upon us, and our friends at 680 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 6: bet MGM Sports are offering Action Network podcast listeners a 681 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 6: great sign up offer.

For my number two pick and the number 698 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 3: four overall pick the week fifteen Sunday six pack, I 699 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 3: am going with the Philadelphia Eagles plus six and a 700 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 3: half at the Arizona Cardinals. Jalen Hurts. You know, it's 701 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 3: it's it's not perfect. He's gonna run, he's gonna scramble out. 702 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 3: I believe a scrambling percentage is on sixteen per zero 703 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 3: point seven percent of dropbacks. But clearly it's working more 704 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,280 Speaker 3: than Carson Wentz, who you know, just kind of skittish 705 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 3: in the pocket. Just it just didn't work for him, 706 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 3: and he doesn't have the kind of play making ability 707 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 3: with his legs, you know, for the deficion to match 708 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 3: the deficiencies of the Seagles offense, which is the receivers 709 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 3: aren't going to get open that well. So I was 710 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 3: impressed with Philly in that first game against New Warrens. 711 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: Remember New Orleans is number two in defensive DVO eight. 712 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 3: This is a an excellent defense versus both the run 713 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 3: and the pass. Their top five. Philadelphia put up four 714 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 3: hundred and thirteen yards of total offense. That was their 715 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 3: second most total yards of the season. So I just 716 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 3: like that Philadelphia, and you know, now you have a 717 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 3: game game of film unhurt, so probably not as huge 718 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 3: of an advantage. But Arizona's defense is not nearly on 719 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 3: the caliber of New Orleans. Arizona's kind of your we 720 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 3: averaged slightly above average team in all facets generally, but 721 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 3: so getting six and a half here, I love it. 722 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 3: And then for a game I think Philly can win. Now, 723 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 3: the one thing that's concerning is Philadelphia, you know, really 724 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 3: banged up no secondary right in the secondary, and we'll 725 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 3: see about Slay. That would obviously be huge. So with 726 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 3: if Slay is out, I make this line about five 727 00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 3: point eight, and if he's in, I have it closer 728 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 3: to five point two five point three, So still have 729 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: it under the number, but obviously we would like it 730 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: a lot more. That's why I picked it first in 731 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 3: our draft, but I ended up going with San Francisco 732 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 3: because I really love the matchup for our first pick. 733 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 3: But still either way, this is a game that Philly 734 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 3: can absolutely win. Uh, you know, beating New Orleans, I 735 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 3: think you know, even people are going to look say 736 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 3: it's Taysom, but forget Taysom, forget the New Orleans offense. 737 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 3: They scored twenty one points for Philly to put up, 738 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 3: you know, four hundred and thirteen yards of offense. Miles 739 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 3: Sanders is going to benefit. We know he has big playability. 740 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 3: He's going to benefit from that, you know, dual threat 741 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 3: at quarterback, and that's what you need when you have 742 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 3: a running back that you know. He'll have his slow games. 743 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 3: We kind of were like, what's going on with him 744 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 3: giving us nothing with Wentz, but we've seen him bust 745 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: big plays, you know, pretty consistently for most of the year. 746 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 3: And that was back and I think that's no surprise 747 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 3: that it was with with Hurts. And you know, the 748 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 3: Cardinals they're again they're like this, they're I think they 749 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 3: now at this point they're kind of true to what 750 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 3: their record is. They're seven and six their league average, 751 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 3: they're kind of right about league average, a little bit above. 752 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 3: Kier Murray's gonna make some plays with his legs. Jalen 753 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 3: hurtsk is gonna match it. Their defense, They're gonna bwitz, 754 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 3: They're gonna get some pressure. Philly's gonna bitz. Philly's gonna 755 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 3: I mean, Philly's not gonna Wis, but Philly's gonna get 756 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 3: some pressure. They're both pretty higher pressure in pressure rate. 757 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 3: I just think it's a much more even rematch game. 758 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 3: Uh then close to you know, getting the touchdown here. 759 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 3: So going with Philly plus six. 760 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 4: Five, Yeah, I struggle this was gonna be one of 761 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 4: my picks. 762 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 2: I'm just struggling adjusting the Eagles. I'm struggling to be 763 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 2: two things in this game. They're one is adjusting Eagles. 764 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 4: On the surface after adjusting just for last week's results, 765 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 4: I made this game Arizona minus four and a half. 766 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: And but then you have all these second urges. I 767 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 4: mean you have McCleod, their safety is out, he's done. Yeah, 768 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 4: one of their starting yeah, he's he's out. VNTI Maddox 769 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 4: is out. And now you have Sleigh with a concussion, 770 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 4: he's possible out, which means, of all that happens, you're 771 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 4: moving Jalen Mills, who was at safety to corner, which 772 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 4: means that from you know, two weeks ago, your four 773 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 4: starting defensive backs, you have zero of them in. 774 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 2: Their where they were before. 775 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 4: Because even when in nickel and dime packages, which you're 776 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 4: gonna have to play a lot against Arizona, Robie Coleman 777 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 4: is then playing one of the other outside slots. 778 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: And he's usually playing slot. 779 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 4: He probably will still play slot in Nickel and Don 780 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 4: Stotts and then you're Kevin Seymour come in. Your safeties 781 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 4: will be Marcus Epps and a rookie Kevon Wallace. 782 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 2: Like it's dicey. 783 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 4: So the question then I have is, you know the Cardinals. 784 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 4: The Cardinals are very effective at running the ball because 785 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 4: they spread you out. With the Eagles, that's still their 786 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 4: strength their run defense. Can Kyler Murray take advantage of 787 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 4: this Eagles defense throwing the ball against the depleted secondary 788 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 4: and running it. The Eagles have really struggled with mobile 789 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,280 Speaker 4: quarterbacks this year. Lamar Jackson, Daniel Jones. If you isolate 790 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 4: running backs, Eagles are one of the best run defenses 791 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 4: in the NFL. Mobile quarterbacks have really given them trouble. 792 00:38:58,000 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 4: I just don't know. I can't figure out if Kyler 793 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 4: Murray fully healthy. He just hasn't looked right over the 794 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 4: past month. He's going out of bounds more on runs, 795 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 4: He's not taking as many shots. The numbers just aren't there. 796 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 4: It doesn't look as comfortable. But it seems to me 797 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 4: and I keep reading that it's an injury that could 798 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 4: just go away and all of a sudden, he'll be fine, 799 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 4: But I thought that for the last couple of weeks, 800 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 4: and he was fine last week, but it just it 801 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 4: doesn't look like himself. So those are the kind of 802 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 4: things that are I'm really struggling with here. So ideally 803 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 4: Slay plays and I think I would play the Egles 804 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 4: six and a half if he doesn't, or it's questionable. 805 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 2: I think I would need seven here. 806 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 4: So I don't disagree with you, but a couple of 807 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 4: difficult things to get get a hold of her. In 808 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 4: regard to the Eagles secondary and Kyler Murray's health. 809 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, and I like the secondary is definitely a worry, 810 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 3: but it's kind of one of those worries that's a 811 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 3: little more like it looks a little more alarming than 812 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 3: it is. Then it's going to affect the line when 813 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 3: you actually look at the numbers of even Slay. I mean, 814 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 3: Slay is allowing a seventy six percent catch rate on 815 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 3: the year he's been you know, he's been dusted as 816 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 3: it as it is. You know, it's not like he's 817 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,479 Speaker 3: out here like he had a couple of good games 818 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,760 Speaker 3: earlier in the year, but he's been struggling and coverage 819 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 3: a ton and then you look at Maddox, he's allowing 820 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 3: one o two passer rating, he's got no picks, he's 821 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,919 Speaker 3: given up a couple of scores. Like the drop off 822 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 3: at this point, I mean, the secondary is gonna be 823 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 3: shaky regardless. Now, the thing is about Schwartz and that 824 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 3: defense is they'll play some man, but they they're not 825 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 3: necessarily gonna send a lot of extra blitzers, so they 826 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 3: will still drop back guys in the coverage, which helps 827 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 3: them mitigate some of that a little bit. But none 828 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 3: of their secondary has really been playing outside McLeod. McLoud 829 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 3: is I think the biggest drop off, and that's why 830 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 3: I yet I would have it under five if McLeod 831 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 3: was in there. That that that's the biggest loss. But 832 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,800 Speaker 3: I still think it's too much, and I still think 833 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 3: the Eagles, with you know, have kind of the benefit 834 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 3: of there's only one game now of film here on 835 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 3: Hurts and Kaysom Hill's mobile quarterback, so you know, the 836 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 3: recent results are somewhat promising. 837 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, he'll havan, He'll still he didn't run 838 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 4: as much as I thought he should have. He's a 839 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 4: by you tight end. He should run the ball a 840 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 4: lot more than throw. But yeah, I mean Hurts looked, 841 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,959 Speaker 4: Hurts looked. Okay, it was a very simplified offense. They 842 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 4: just gave him really easy. It seems like he's still 843 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 4: a one read quarterback and they didn't have any drops. 844 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 4: Their offensive line played really well against the Saints defense, 845 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 4: so it was kind of like a perfect storm for Hurts. 846 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 4: But his mobility gives them. But bottom line, you couldn't 847 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 4: have played worse than Wentz. Like I had the Eagles upgrade, 848 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 4: it's when Wentz was in there, which is crazy for 849 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 4: me because it's a rookie quarterback and not one that 850 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 4: like went in the top ten that was supposed to 851 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 4: just come in and shred right away. But his mobility 852 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 4: gives them another added dimension. 853 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 2: To the offense. But that the point I'll bring up 854 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 2: with their secondary. 855 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 4: And I'm not even the biggest Starius sliph fin just 856 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 4: because I'm hardly a fan of any cornerback once they 857 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 4: turned over the age of thirty. Maybe call it agism 858 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 4: or whatever, but that's uh, you know that so especially 859 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 4: one that has to lock down opposing number ones. But 860 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 4: it's not so much, you know, And this is true 861 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 4: with a lot of positions in the NFL when handicapping, 862 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 4: and it's very difficult to do. I don't think anyone 863 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 4: has the right answer. It's more art and science is 864 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 4: it's when there's a cluster of injuries. So you're talking 865 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 4: maybe you have you know, four three starters out and 866 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 4: the other starter is moving to another position, and then 867 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 4: you have rookies in there, and then you have your 868 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 4: slot moving outside. So like that is trying to figure 869 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 4: out how much that is worth. Mainly, it's not even 870 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 4: the talent drop off at this point, this late in 871 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 4: the season. It's the communication, like is how much is 872 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 4: it going to lead to some busted coverages because people 873 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 4: don't know where they're at and how much do you 874 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 4: have to simplify the defense? 875 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 2: And because I mean, you. 876 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 4: Have a safety doesn't know where they're supposed to be 877 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 4: in a corner, lets a receiver go and it's an 878 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 4: eightyr touchdown and boom, it's a different game right from 879 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 4: the jump. So that's just a difficult thing for me 880 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 4: to figure out here. But I don't hate to play 881 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 4: at all. I think that's where the value is. 882 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 3: You know, the best thing about the Cardinals is in 883 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 3: this spot there, so they're making Andy Isabella healthy. Scratch, 884 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 3: it looks like they don't really have a that can 885 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,479 Speaker 3: score an eighty hour a touchdown. You know, Hopkins, that's 886 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 3: I mean, he's the closest thing to add so but yeah, no, 887 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 3: I totally agree. It's really tough. I mean, that was 888 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 3: the issue at San Francisco earlier in the year and 889 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 3: that and I think it was against the Giants and 890 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 3: Jets and actually ended up biting biting me downgrading. 891 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 2: It too much. 892 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: So it's it's tough. 893 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 2: Yep. 894 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it's it's it's a very It's one of 895 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 4: the most difficult things to cap in the NFL. 896 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 2: But I agree. 897 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 4: I think it's it's Eagles or nothing. For my third 898 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 4: pick in the fifth pick of the Sunday six pack, 899 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 4: I really struggle with this, which one. I wanted to 900 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 4: go with third, with waiting on some injuries and quarterbacks, 901 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 4: but I decided to go with the New York Football 902 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 4: Giants plus four and a half at home against the 903 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:58,760 Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns. 904 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: And look, this is. 905 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 4: Another game where I don't know who's necessarily playing at quarterback. 906 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 2: I make this line around three. 907 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 4: You do have the Browns on a short week after 908 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 4: a very emotional game going to New York. They're still 909 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 4: in a good good place postseason wise, but they could 910 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 4: really use this game still. But you could see a 911 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 4: slight hangover here. The Giants have generally been pretty good 912 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 4: against the run, and they've pretty much been in every 913 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 4: game this year outside of the San fran game, which 914 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 4: was just their clunker. Teams are going to have clunkers 915 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,280 Speaker 4: once your end. Last week they did too against Arizona 916 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 4: and they couldn't do anything. I mean, this is a 917 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 4: team that had fifty three yards I believe in the 918 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 4: first half. But why did that happen? I mean, they 919 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 4: had Daniel Jones in there on one foot, like one 920 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 4: leg like they and that he had a I heard 921 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 4: answer going in then he sprained his ankle. So much 922 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 4: of what Daniel Jones can do out there is because 923 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 4: of his mobility. You know, it doesn't have the greatest 924 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 4: offensive line, so he has to create some space in 925 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 4: the pocket to throw, but also just using his legs 926 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 4: to pick up first downs. They just kept him and 927 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 4: they shouldn't have had him in there. Are they going 928 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 4: to have been there this week? I don't know, to 929 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 4: be honest, I'm assuming that they won't put him out 930 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:05,760 Speaker 4: there if he's not fully healthy. 931 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 3: From their last news I read they are saying that 932 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 3: they are willing to accept and this is from what 933 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 3: the coach Joe Jent is saying. They're willing to accept 934 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 3: Jones's limitations and will start him if he can get 935 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 3: through the practice week. 936 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,800 Speaker 4: Well I don't love that, but that's basically what happened 937 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: last week because that Jones couldn't move. So you hope 938 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 4: that if they do play him, he's either healthier, or 939 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 4: his ankle is better, or his hamstring is better. He'll 940 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 4: also be going up against the Cardinals defense is not 941 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 4: great by any stretch, but the Browns defense right now is. 942 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 2: I mean it's bad, especially on the back end. 943 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,320 Speaker 4: They might be getting word back, which will help at corner, 944 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,800 Speaker 4: but how much does that really help against the Giants? 945 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:51,320 Speaker 2: Not much. 946 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 4: I think that Evan Ingram could have a huge game. 947 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 4: The Giants should be able to run it on Cleveland. 948 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 4: I mean, this back end of the Cleveland defense, especially 949 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 4: at safety and linebacker, is just absolutely atrocious. And you 950 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 4: have to remember when you're looking at their numbers, you 951 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 4: have three horrifying win games in there, so their defensive 952 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 4: numbers should be much worse, and their offensive numbers. I mean, 953 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,919 Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield has played a little better than I thought 954 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 4: over the past weeks. We know their offensive line is great, 955 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,320 Speaker 4: we know their running game is great. Their offensive numbers 956 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 4: should be better too. Overall, I got it just to 957 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,319 Speaker 4: be fair, but this Giants team will fight. It's a 958 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 4: great time to buy them low after that clunker last week. 959 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 4: You hope you get better QB health, whether that's Jones 960 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 4: can't go, and you get McCoy in there. 961 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,319 Speaker 2: Remember McCoy went to Seattle and one. 962 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 4: He can still complete short passes against a bad defense, 963 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 4: which is what the Browns are. And I think that 964 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 4: the Giants can compete here with their run defense, which 965 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 4: is really key against Cleveland. 966 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 2: Mainly. 967 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 4: These are all just reasons that I'm giving that I 968 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 4: do like and believe in. But I make this line 969 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 4: about three. So I'm getting four and a half five 970 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 4: at home after the Giants had that clunker last week. 971 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 4: So I'm willing to side with the home dog here, 972 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 4: who for all intents and purposes, is playing for their 973 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 4: season because they're then They're at Baltimore next week after 974 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 4: dropping that game last week, and Washington won. This basically 975 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 4: could make or break their season. So give me the 976 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 4: Giants catching the Browns in a short week in New York. 977 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is what I thought it really hard about 978 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 3: because I actually have a projected edge around the same 979 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 3: as you do. Really, the only thing that gave me 980 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 3: pause was that that Judge quote because I talked about 981 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 3: it in a piece I wrote about the NFC East 982 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 3: last week with the Giants are the game plan team, 983 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 3: like they're going to out coach most teams and come 984 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:39,720 Speaker 3: with a better game plan most weeks, And what happened 985 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 3: last week, they got they got out coached. They you know, 986 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 3: they they were defensive fronts that the Cards kind of 987 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,880 Speaker 3: showed them that that they weren't expecting. And really I 988 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 3: think it really came through because Daniel Jones didn't have 989 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,839 Speaker 3: that mobility and they didn't have that ability to kind 990 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 3: of adjust on the fly to what you know, the 991 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 3: Cards were doing without that mobility. So yeah, it's it's 992 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 3: something I think you have to monitor throughout the week. 993 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 3: But from a just from a pure projections perspective, I 994 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:10,800 Speaker 3: to see some value on this line just waiting to 995 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 3: kind of see what's up with Daniel Jones. 996 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,800 Speaker 1: Let's hear it for Danny Times. 997 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 3: All right for my final pick, the sixth pick of 998 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 3: the Sunday six pack. We are going we're getting ugly here, 999 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 3: or maybe maybe it's not a depending how you look 1000 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 3: at it. But did it last week, Gonna do it again. 1001 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 3: And this is I think probably the highest line of 1002 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 3: taken in the history of this podcast. But Rams minus 1003 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 3: seventeen against the New York Jets. This is pure week 1004 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 3: because I expect the Jets to get blown out for 1005 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,319 Speaker 3: a second week in a row on the road. Look 1006 00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 3: at this Rams team. The defense is impeccable. They're not 1007 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 3: gonna be They're not gonna you know, Jets. Their strength 1008 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 3: on offense is wide receivers. They have Mims, they have Prouder, 1009 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 3: they have Peramit. They get nothing out of the tight end. 1010 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 3: They run Frank Gore out there for half at least 1011 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 3: half the snaps. They're really getting nothing out of the backfield. 1012 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 3: So their wide receivers have to come through for them 1013 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 3: to move the ball. On offense, Well, the Rams have 1014 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,879 Speaker 3: Jalen Ramsey, they have you know, Troy Hill. They can 1015 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 3: completely take away your wide receivers. And we kind of 1016 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 3: saw with Cam Newton last week. You know, he was 1017 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,720 Speaker 3: able to get you know, a couple of explosive plays, 1018 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 3: but nothing else for the entire game ends up getting benched. 1019 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 3: This could be a game where we see some Joe 1020 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,280 Speaker 3: Flacco because I don't expect the Rams to give up anything. 1021 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 3: So it's really about them getting I think, you know, 1022 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 3: getting to twenty mid twenties in points, which you know 1023 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 3: earlier in the year they kind of skid in on 1024 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 3: that against the Giants one game. But this Jets defense, 1025 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 3: it's not it hasn't been very good. I mean they 1026 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 3: gave up a huge amount of points to see who 1027 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 3: is you know, playing shaky offense to the point where 1028 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 3: Seattle is playing their second stringers for the entire fourth quarter. 1029 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 3: So this is another spot just Adam Gase's teams. Usually 1030 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 3: you're betting on the big road dog here, but Adam 1031 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,800 Speaker 3: Gase as a road dog. Anytime he's five and a 1032 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 3: half or higher, it's he's five and nineteen against the spread, 1033 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 3: and that trend holds when you're looking at double digit spreads. 1034 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 3: So going Rams seventeen against the Jets. 1035 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll play Devil's advocate here. 1036 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 4: I mean, the counterpoints to everything that I'm saying is 1037 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 4: it's Jets Adam Gase, I mean, because he tends to 1038 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 4: be the exception to the rule, to all of this, 1039 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 4: to all of what I'm. 1040 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 2: About to say. 1041 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 4: But if you know, this is a great Bilo Sell 1042 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 4: high spot in the NFL. On the surface, you know 1043 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 4: that the Rams to have extra prep but the Rams 1044 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 4: win by seventeen more or more, the Jets lost by 1045 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 4: seventeen or more. When that happens in the NFL, on those 1046 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 4: two teams meet the following game, the team that lost 1047 00:50:56,480 --> 00:51:00,239 Speaker 4: by seventeen or more ninety four sixty and fourgainst the 1048 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 4: special deals with three sixty one percent. That just speaks 1049 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 4: to and what that speaks to is probably the little 1050 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 4: bit of extra value that you'll get on the market 1051 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 4: over reaction. Also, teams that lose by thirty five plus 1052 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 4: in their previous game, which the Jets that just. 1053 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 2: Did sixty two, thirty. 1054 00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 4: Seven and five sixty two point six percent against the spread, 1055 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 4: that's over a twenty percent ROI. So on, on the 1056 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,879 Speaker 4: surface from a spot perspective, from my line, i'd see a. 1057 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 2: Touch of value. I would actually have to contemplate the Jets. 1058 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 4: I don't know if I would actually pull the trigger, because 1059 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 4: that would Actually, I would also put my undefeated one 1060 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 4: to zero against the spread record betting on the Jets 1061 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty if it reached seventeen and a half, eighteen, 1062 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 4: I do make it a bit lower. There's also one 1063 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 4: other thing I'll throw out here. The Rams have the 1064 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 4: Seahawks next week basically for the division. So do they 1065 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:53,279 Speaker 4: come out a little flat early? Does golf just give 1066 00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 4: you a bad turnover? Do they go ultra vanilla? Do 1067 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,959 Speaker 4: they go ultra conservative with the lead and the Jets 1068 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 4: get in the back door? These are things that I 1069 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,840 Speaker 4: thought about reason I'm mentioning them, But then I just 1070 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 4: go back to I mean, you look at double digit dogs. 1071 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,319 Speaker 4: The NFL historically been a good bet over the last 1072 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,880 Speaker 4: five years. The Jets been horrible. The case has been 1073 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 4: horrible in these spots. It's their second straight trip out 1074 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 4: in the West Coast for a team that hasn't won 1075 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 4: a game all year. I mean, do they eed to 1076 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,719 Speaker 4: show up? They have so many injuries on the defensive 1077 00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 4: end as well. Yeah, So it's hard for me to 1078 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 4: come up with any reasons why the Jets would cover 1079 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 4: other than I show a tab bit of value. 1080 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 2: It's not a great spot. 1081 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 4: For the Rams to want to blow this open, but 1082 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 4: they just might naturally because they're a lot better. 1083 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 2: But just keep those in mind that by low. 1084 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 4: Sell high spot after what you saw last week, more 1085 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 4: times than not, if you bet on the team just 1086 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 4: blindly that lost by three touchdowns against the team that 1087 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 4: won by two one by three touchdowns the week prior, 1088 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 4: you're probably gonna win more times than not. 1089 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 2: But fading the Jets and fading games, I can't disagree 1090 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 2: with you. 1091 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 3: So Adam Gase is two and eight as a double 1092 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 3: digit road dog against the spread, and he's one in 1093 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 3: three the spread is seventeen or more. So yeah, he's 1094 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 3: just the exception and I'm betting against him for the 1095 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 3: rest of the year. I mean, I'm pretty sure he's 1096 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 3: going to be gone when the year's out. But this 1097 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 3: is just a spot where I think the Rams are 1098 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 3: Like you look at what Seattle did to the Ram 1099 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,240 Speaker 3: to the Jets, and then you look at the Rams 1100 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 3: beat Seattle was it twenty four to thirteen a couple 1101 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,319 Speaker 3: of weeks ago. I just think the Rams are even 1102 00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 3: better than Seattle on both sides of the ball right now. 1103 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,319 Speaker 3: And yeah, I don't expect the Jest to be able 1104 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:27,240 Speaker 3: to keep it close, bro, That's kind of my figure 1105 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 3: fair enough, all right, So to recap, Stuck going with 1106 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 3: the Patriots plus two and a half, the Broncos plus six, 1107 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 3: and the Giants plus four and a half. I am 1108 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 3: going with the forty nine Ers minus three, the Eagles 1109 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 3: plus six and a half, and the Rams minus seveneen. 1110 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 3: That was our Sunday six pack with some Saturday games 1111 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:53,920 Speaker 3: thrown in. Reminder, you can follow all of the picks 1112 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 3: on the app. Just search for Sunday six pack and 1113 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 3: the Action Networks apps follow feature. Next up, we have 1114 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:04,400 Speaker 3: our favorite over underplays of the All right, Stuck, I 1115 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:07,440 Speaker 3: will take the lead on the total since you went 1116 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 3: first for the six pack, I am going with the 1117 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 3: Patriots Dolphins under forty one and a half for many 1118 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 3: of the reasons you just mentioned with Belichick and a 1119 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback. If you are looking at an under, and 1120 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 3: you know you're kind of looking at it from the 1121 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 3: perspective of okay, is one of these teams or both 1122 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 3: of these teams potentially going to kind of fall short 1123 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 3: of living up to their end of the bargain. And 1124 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,960 Speaker 3: I think in this case, Miami being the favorite especially, 1125 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 3: may not get to those twenty whathe is it twenty 1126 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 3: two or so implied points twenty two and a half 1127 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:47,440 Speaker 3: implied points in this game. I think that Belichick can 1128 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 3: hold them into the teams, especially they're dealing with some injuries. 1129 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 3: You know, Devonte Parker, he's practicing on a limited basis. 1130 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 3: But their tight end Gasicki's out, so they don't really 1131 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 3: have a pass catching tight end. Now they're going to 1132 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,839 Speaker 3: go with Shaheen and Durham Smith at that and that's 1133 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 3: what Parker. 1134 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,399 Speaker 4: I look, I have Parker on my one fancy team 1135 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:06,840 Speaker 4: that he's just he's irrelevant when to it starts, and 1136 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 4: he too loves throwing to get sicky. 1137 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a tough spot for Miami anyway, just with 1138 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 3: some of the injuries they're going through. But yeah, I 1139 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:15,839 Speaker 3: don't expect them to kind of move up to their 1140 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 3: side of the bargain. And then we know it what 1141 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 3: the Patriots like to do. They like to slow it down. 1142 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,319 Speaker 3: They like to run the football as much as they 1143 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 3: can shorten the game. And you don't necessarily expect them 1144 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 3: to out exceed their implied point total in this game either. 1145 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 3: Miami still overall pretty good on defense, even though they 1146 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 3: do struggle and run defense. So I think that I 1147 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 3: think this one's a good under bet here forty one 1148 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 3: and a half paid past Dolphins. 1149 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't disgree that you said. 1150 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 4: For my favorite total of the week, i'd have to 1151 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 4: end a streak. I think I've hit five in a 1152 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 4: row of all Seattle unders, or four or five in 1153 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 4: a row. I think the market is finally caught up. 1154 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 4: Last week it actually probably should have hit. I think 1155 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 4: the Jets missed like four field goals and then Gino 1156 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:03,359 Speaker 4: Smith came in the fourth quarter. 1157 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,799 Speaker 2: It was just that big of a blowout. If you 1158 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 2: get it over forty five, I'd like it. 1159 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 4: But it's at forty four and a half now that 1160 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 4: the market knows now that Seattle is no longer your 1161 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 4: dream over team, and they become your dream under team, 1162 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 4: and now I think they're just neutral. 1163 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 2: That's what happens in the NFL market. 1164 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:24,400 Speaker 4: So I'm gonna go with the Chicago Bears Minnesota Vikings 1165 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 4: under forty seven and a half at bet MGM. 1166 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 2: I make this lower. These are two six. 1167 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:35,160 Speaker 4: And seven teams fighting for an outside playoff shot in 1168 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 4: a division matchup late in the year. Might see two 1169 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 4: teams be fairly conservative here. But basically, just when you 1170 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 4: look at when these teams play, the Bears are the 1171 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 4: one team that really contains dob and Cook. He just 1172 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 4: can't get it going against Chicago, and I mean a 1173 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:56,200 Speaker 4: Keem Hicks just has monster games against them. They take 1174 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 4: it personal and it's just Dovin Cook just never gets 1175 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 4: it going. And that's the focal point in the starting 1176 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,799 Speaker 4: point of this Vikings offense. On the other side the ball, 1177 00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 4: the Vikings defense hasn't been great. It isn't a great unit. 1178 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 4: Mitch Trubisky has played better of late, but last week 1179 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 4: he played the Texans. They have no secondary left. It's 1180 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 4: Hargreaves and Philip Gains. It's a disaster. The week before 1181 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 4: he played Detroit, the one team he always plays well 1182 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 4: against that also has no secondary. When you're talking about 1183 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,919 Speaker 4: two of the worst secondaries in the NFL the past 1184 00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 4: two weeks. The week before that he played Green Bay 1185 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 4: and he had a bunch of garbage time points when 1186 00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 4: that game was forty one to ten. So yeah, he 1187 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 4: has played better overall. I think that he's a better 1188 00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,640 Speaker 4: option than Foles. And the week before that he played Minnesota. 1189 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 4: It was with Foles and you know the Bears put 1190 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 4: up thirteen points, so yeah, to Risky's played better, but 1191 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 4: it's been three weeks. One was in garbage time, two 1192 00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 4: where against two of the worst secondaries and defenses in 1193 00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 4: the NFL. 1194 00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 2: So it's is still much Bortals is much Trubisky, You've 1195 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 2: just been bortled. I don't see him lighting it up here. 1196 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:07,479 Speaker 4: I think he's a better option than Foalds at this point, 1197 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 4: just because he offers some mobility, and I have said 1198 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 4: I'd like some things that the Bears have done with 1199 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 4: their offense the past couple weeks less Jimmy Graham. 1200 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 2: Montgomery's looked a little better and. 1201 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 4: He's broken some runs, but overall still an average at 1202 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,680 Speaker 4: best offense on a good day. So I think this 1203 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 4: is a grinder, and I think forty seven and a 1204 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 4: half is too high. 1205 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 2: I think this game is playing in the low twenties. 1206 00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, you saw in the last matchup, Minnesota scores just 1207 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 3: nineteen on the Bears on offense, and then the Bears 1208 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 3: score only thirteen points, granted with folds, but they need 1209 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 3: a Cordero Patterson kickoff return just to get there. So yeah, 1210 00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 3: this is a game that second matchup should be tight. 1211 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: Definitely agree. This is an undergame on the way. 1212 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 4: The one last thing that I'll add in here for 1213 00:58:55,720 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 4: that Bears Vikings under If all things go wrong, you'll 1214 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 4: have in your back pockets Dan Bailey. 1215 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 2: Missing field goals. Apparently they're not going to cut him. 1216 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 3: So to recap, I'm going Pats Dolphins under forty one 1217 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 3: and a half, stuck going Bears Mikes under forty seven 1218 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 3: and a half. Now let's get into our favorite teaser 1219 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 3: of the week. 1220 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, six point teasers all right? 1221 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 3: For those not familiar, teaser is when you combine two 1222 00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,440 Speaker 3: or more bets. For each bet, you get an extra 1223 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,800 Speaker 3: six points or however many points you're teasing toward the 1224 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 3: spread for each team. So, for example, if you're teasing 1225 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,000 Speaker 3: an eight point favorite with a six point teaser, they 1226 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 3: become a two point favorite, and an eight point underdog 1227 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 3: becomes a fourteen point underdog. Stuck where you're going? Which 1228 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 3: you were at teaser for this week? 1229 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 2: I mentioned this early in the podcast. 1230 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 4: There's a few good teaser options, including the Chargers on 1231 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 4: Thursday night, the Bears I think even at three three 1232 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 4: and a half. But I'll give you one that fits 1233 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,120 Speaker 4: the mold and I'll go if I put this in 1234 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 4: on the Action app already the Patriots teasing them from 1235 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 4: two and a half up to eight and a half 1236 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 4: across that three, four, six, and seven. Also, lower scoring 1237 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 4: game makes it an even lower total. I also think, 1238 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 4: like you, it's going to be a lower scoring game 1239 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 4: that makes the tees even more valuable. And I'll throw 1240 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 4: them in with green Bay. Green Bay's at minus eight 1241 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 4: and a half right now. Green Bay just seems like 1242 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:30,200 Speaker 4: they're every week a great teas piece. Maybe they give 1243 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 4: up a back door they almost did with Philly, but 1244 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,439 Speaker 4: then they got one they did with Detroit, but they're 1245 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 4: still covering the teas. So yeah, I think the Packers 1246 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 4: win this game. One of the things that you'll see 1247 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 4: mccaffree's not playing for the Panthers for what doesn't look 1248 01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 4: like a play for what it's worth. And one of 1249 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 4: the things that I think you're seeing with Carolina right 1250 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 4: now that I've talked about on the podcast all year 1251 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 4: is that defense is going to regress hard, especially that 1252 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 4: secondary that happened with Minnesota late, it happened with Drew 1253 01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 4: Locke last week. Russell Douglas had a terrible game. He's 1254 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 4: not an elite corner. So I don't think that I 1255 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 4: don't think that Aaron Rodgers will have any issues here 1256 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 4: against Carolina in an important game for Green Bay NFC game. 1257 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:12,880 Speaker 4: I have to keep pacing, keep that one seed. So 1258 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 4: maybe Carolina gets in the back door here. Maybe not, 1259 01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 4: but I'm comfortable with Rogers winning this game at home. 1260 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 4: So Packers pats. 1261 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Packer I mean the Panthers defense. When they 1262 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 3: get four touchdowns to Drew Locke, no picks, I mean 1263 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 3: that's for a guy that's been it's been picked more 1264 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 3: more picks and touchdowns every no garbage time, right, It's 1265 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 3: and didn't they get a Dante Jackson back for that 1266 01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:42,760 Speaker 3: game too? Like yeah, it's nothing's helping because they're not 1267 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 3: really doing anything. They can't they're not in position to 1268 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 3: do anything kind of exotic. They're just kind of going 1269 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 3: to sit back and you know their lack of talent 1270 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 3: is gonna play out. 1271 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, Aaron Rodgers, they play a ton of zone, 1272 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:56,479 Speaker 2: I mean, good luck. 1273 01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Aaron Rodgers is gonna pick that apart. Uh. For 1274 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 3: my teas, I mean I could actually go with the 1275 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 3: Packers too, but the teas I chose, I'll stick with 1276 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 3: it is Patriots plus eight and a half and Colts 1277 01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 3: minus one and a half. The Texans, I mean they're decimated. 1278 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 3: They look like they're gonna get Cooks back, but Fuller 1279 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,440 Speaker 3: is still just a huge loss to be without Fuller. 1280 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 3: But then on the other side of the ball, I mean, 1281 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 3: they're missing a ton of defensive backs. You know, their 1282 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:30,440 Speaker 3: cornerback situation is just atrocious. You have the Colts. T 1283 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 3: Y Hilton's playing better. You know, they're not covided up. 1284 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 3: Still have some issues at tackle, but nothing that should 1285 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 3: kind of give them problems in this game. And then 1286 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 3: on top of that, Jonathan Taylor's been getting hot lately 1287 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 3: in Houston's the worst run defense in the league. So 1288 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 3: this is just a plus matchup for the Colts, I 1289 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 3: think pretty much across the board. It is a division game, 1290 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 3: so weird things can happen. That's why I rather tease 1291 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 3: them than take them straight up at the number, which 1292 01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 3: I think is pretty much on point at seven and 1293 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 3: a half. Going Colts Pats here. 1294 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Colts. 1295 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 4: I don't disagree with using the with the Colts here. 1296 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 4: They should win this game. Teasing Rivers never a bad option. 1297 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 4: The one thing the Colts we talked about how how 1298 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 4: ridiculously soft the Steelers schedule is. By the way, since 1299 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 4: Carson Wentz is now benched and Hurts is technically the starter, 1300 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,760 Speaker 4: and the Steelers are going to face Brandon Allen this week, 1301 01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 4: that means this will be the eighth backup quarterback that 1302 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 4: the Steelers have faced in fourteen games. 1303 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:29,280 Speaker 2: I mean, it's remarkable. 1304 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 4: But we talked about how easy the Steelers schedule has 1305 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 4: been at after last After this past week, the Colts 1306 01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 4: have faced the easiest schedule of opposing defenses, and I 1307 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 4: can't figure out their offense. I mean, here, here's what 1308 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 4: they played, and it helps to be in that division 1309 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 4: of trash defenses Jags, Vikings, Jets, Browns, Bengals, Lions, Titans, Packers, Titans, Texans, Raiders, 1310 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 4: the only two above average defenses. Packers have it above 1311 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,400 Speaker 4: average passy, but the only above our defenses they played 1312 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 4: are the Ravens, who didn't have Marlon Humphrey and they 1313 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 4: scored ten points at three point like three yards per 1314 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:14,160 Speaker 4: play and the Bears, and they didn't do much against 1315 01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 4: the Bears either, thirty five percent success rate against under 1316 01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:19,640 Speaker 4: four yards per play against both. So I do have 1317 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 4: questions about the offense. And it's not that Rivers has 1318 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 4: been bad. The running game hasn't been great. T Y 1319 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 4: Hilton is coming on, but it was against the Raiders, 1320 01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:30,320 Speaker 4: the Texans and the Titans, three teams without the secondary. 1321 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 4: But maybe he's getting healthier and he has had three 1322 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 4: big games in a row. But the offensive line just 1323 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 4: hasn't been as good as it was supposed to be 1324 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 4: coming into the year. That's hurt the run game. I 1325 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,200 Speaker 4: think that's hurt the passing game. So I don't think 1326 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 4: that hurts them now. Guess what, They're playing another trash 1327 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 4: defense this week. But it's something to keep in mind 1328 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:51,280 Speaker 4: for the playoffs. They played the Jags at home again. 1329 01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 4: They still have left on their schedule somehow, but they 1330 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,520 Speaker 4: do go to Pittsburgh next week. It's done to keep 1331 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 4: in mind whether or not you want to bet them 1332 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,160 Speaker 4: next week for that game or just in the playoff, 1333 01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 4: Like I want to see this team do something against 1334 01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 4: a on offense against a good defense, especially because their 1335 01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 4: defense has been slipping. Maybe it's variance, but over the 1336 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:10,920 Speaker 4: first half, for the first six or seven weeks, there 1337 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 4: were number three in the NFL. Since then they were 1338 01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 4: third worse in the NFL from an EPA perspective, So I. 1339 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:17,600 Speaker 2: Do have some questions with the Colts. 1340 01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 4: I'm trying to figure out who they are with a 1341 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:22,720 Speaker 4: lot of moving pieces from a statistical point of view, 1342 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 4: but I don't think that hurts them this week against 1343 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 4: the Texans, but just something to keep in mind. 1344 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:29,920 Speaker 2: So I don't disagree with that teas at all. 1345 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:32,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Colts are another one of these teams that 1346 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 3: I think the schedule is going to create some value 1347 01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 3: when we get to the playoffs betting against them. I mean, 1348 01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:38,600 Speaker 3: Rivers is not going to be able to play this 1349 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 3: well against defenses that can get more pressure or cover better. 1350 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 3: He's just limited at this stage in his career. And 1351 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 3: then the defense I think is pretty solid, but you 1352 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 3: do have some guys kind of playing a little bit 1353 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 3: above their head that could be exposed, like Xavier Rhoads 1354 01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 3: kind of came on. And I think the Swippers lately's 1355 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 3: you know, Oka Riki has been hurt, Buttoner missed the 1356 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:01,480 Speaker 3: game or two, Autry missed the game or two. They 1357 01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 3: had some COVID situations. So yeah, it's hard to get 1358 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,360 Speaker 3: a reh honest team, but they're definitely I don't think 1359 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 3: as good as what we've you know what we see 1360 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 3: on paper? All right, now, time for our money line 1361 01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:18,439 Speaker 3: Underdoug Parlay. 1362 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:25,920 Speaker 1: Turning good weekends into great weekends. It's time for the 1363 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:27,400 Speaker 1: money line Parlay. 1364 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 2: All right? 1365 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 3: Stuck Washington dangerous team hit last week? 1366 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:32,920 Speaker 2: For me? 1367 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 3: Who you going with this week? 1368 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1369 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 4: To be fair, I was gonna go with the Broncos 1370 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:39,600 Speaker 4: last week, but there wasn't a lineup, so I went 1371 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:40,160 Speaker 4: with Cincy. 1372 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 2: That was good. 1373 01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 4: This week, I'm going to go with I'm gonna go 1374 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 4: with Washington like you did last week. I think that 1375 01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 4: there's some value in this line. Right now, the Washington defense, 1376 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 4: we know, is playing amazing. There are some major questions 1377 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 4: still with the Seattle offensive line that I think Washington 1378 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:03,080 Speaker 4: might be able to to exploit. And there are questions 1379 01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 4: on the Washington side with who's gonna play on offense? 1380 01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 4: Right Like, is Alex Smith playing? He doesn't necessarily even great? 1381 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 4: But do you want Dwayne Hoskins in there? Antonio Gibson 1382 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 4: going to play one of their most electric playmakers all over. 1383 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,560 Speaker 4: I mean, you have Terry mccorn, but they use Gibson. 1384 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 4: He's the most explosive running back. They use him out 1385 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:20,479 Speaker 4: of the backfield in the passing. 1386 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 2: Is he going to play? 1387 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,320 Speaker 4: I don't know even if he does, it's a toe. 1388 01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:26,160 Speaker 4: I know it sounds like, oh it's a toe. Those 1389 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:27,040 Speaker 4: things are tough. 1390 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 2: And like it's they tend to linger and they tend 1391 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 2: they for me at least, you. 1392 01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 4: Probably love more insight into this, especially since you project 1393 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 4: these project players each week. It's always dicey when someone 1394 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:39,760 Speaker 4: has a toe because like they could go in one 1395 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 4: play and then they're they're out. 1396 01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 2: You see them limp into the sidelines. 1397 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 4: So there's a lot of variants with like who's playing 1398 01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 4: for Washington, which is making a hesitant the side. But 1399 01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:54,400 Speaker 4: with that variance in this line steaming up to Seattle, 1400 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 4: I think it's a good spot to take a flyer 1401 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:58,520 Speaker 4: on Washington and that defense. 1402 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, from a just in terms of the toe injuries, 1403 01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 3: you see about about a twenty percent different production from 1404 01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 3: running backs. Now that includes you know, you're gonna have 1405 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:10,360 Speaker 3: guys that, just like you said, go out early in 1406 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 3: the game after playing through that that questionable tag or whatever. 1407 01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think Washington I said this, you know 1408 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 3: in my NFC East piece, They're gonna be a dangerous 1409 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 3: team for the rest of the year. I think because 1410 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 3: they're motivated. I think that Pittsburgh win gave them a 1411 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:27,680 Speaker 3: lot of confidence and they kind of have that emotional 1412 01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 3: boost from you know, Ron Rivera fighting cancer. They battle back. 1413 01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:33,880 Speaker 2: You know. 1414 01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:35,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just think it's going to be a dangerous 1415 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,200 Speaker 3: team and not a team that you really want to 1416 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 3: be betting against that at any point. Now, I do. 1417 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,559 Speaker 3: I get that, Like, if it's if it's Haskins in there, 1418 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:44,920 Speaker 3: then it's tough to say, Okay, we're gonna bet on 1419 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:49,639 Speaker 3: Haskins against Russell Wilson. But I think this Washington team 1420 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:51,680 Speaker 3: is you know, they're the team that's going to be 1421 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 3: dangerous down the stretch. And you know, you look at 1422 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 3: what they did on defense last week. I mean, Chase 1423 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,400 Speaker 3: Young just completely took over the game. And these are 1424 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:00,679 Speaker 3: the type of teams that Seattle's been having they're in 1425 01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:02,679 Speaker 3: trouble with. You know, teams that are that can play 1426 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 3: well on defense and keep Seattle's scoring in check. Then 1427 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 3: then you're in the game with Seattle. And Seattle's defense has, yes, 1428 01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:13,360 Speaker 3: they've been improved, but you know, once you're talking about 1429 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:15,720 Speaker 3: a low scoring game, it could go either way. So 1430 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 3: and Seattle still does rely on throwing it down the 1431 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,240 Speaker 3: field so they can make some mistakes. So yeah, I 1432 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,639 Speaker 3: think Washington is a threat to win this game. Obviously, 1433 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:27,000 Speaker 3: minsor the quarterback situation Alex Smith, I think is still 1434 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:31,519 Speaker 3: a lot more ideal than Haskins. For my money, wine dog, 1435 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:33,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go to the Patriots. You know, I was 1436 01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:37,720 Speaker 3: thinking about the Bears here, but thinking more about it 1437 01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 3: the Patriots. I expect them to win this game. They're 1438 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 3: not a big dog plus one twenty, but this is 1439 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:47,200 Speaker 3: a perfect spot. You broke it down, stuck, going against 1440 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 3: a rookie quarterback, coming off some long prep, and going 1441 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,800 Speaker 3: against you know, a coach that they're very familiar with. 1442 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 3: I think as an underdog, the value is on New England. Here, 1443 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,679 Speaker 3: a very winnable game for them. All right, let's get 1444 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:04,679 Speaker 3: into the best of the rest, which are the games 1445 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 3: that we did not discuss in any other segment. First up, 1446 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 3: we have the Chiefs going to New Orleans. Chiefs are 1447 01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 3: three point favorites. This should be the game of the week. Stuck. 1448 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 3: Any thoughts on this one? 1449 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, Again, this comes down to the quarterback. It's very 1450 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:21,439 Speaker 4: hard for me to project. Now there's look, the Chiefs 1451 01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 4: haven't covered their own five, they gets to spread their 1452 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:25,760 Speaker 4: last five. Now they won all those games, but there 1453 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:27,439 Speaker 4: some of the games are coming out a little flat. 1454 01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:28,760 Speaker 4: Some of them are allowing teams to get in the 1455 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 4: back door. This game is essentially meaningless to the Chiefs, 1456 01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:34,360 Speaker 4: so I'm curious to see what they're. 1457 01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 2: Going to do from a play calling perspective. 1458 01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 4: Do they keep it more conservative, because look, if they lose, 1459 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 4: I shouldn't say it's meaningless. If they win this game 1460 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 4: and then the Steelers lose to the Bengals are cold 1461 01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:46,360 Speaker 4: taken rest starter this week seventeen. But this is an 1462 01:10:46,479 --> 01:10:50,160 Speaker 4: NFC game. If the Chiefs lose this game, as long 1463 01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 4: as they beat the Falcons and the Chargers at home, 1464 01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 4: then in the year they have the one seed. So 1465 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 4: there's the offensive line injuries that the Chiefs are dealing with, 1466 01:10:57,960 --> 01:10:59,680 Speaker 4: and that is the way to beat Mahomes. You have 1467 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:03,400 Speaker 4: to get pressure without blitzing, and the Saints can do that. 1468 01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 4: They have plenty of good players off of the edge. 1469 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:09,280 Speaker 4: They have good into your defensive linemen. They can get 1470 01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 4: pressure without without having to rely on the blitz and 1471 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 4: they don't. This defense has been playing as one of 1472 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 4: the best units in the NFL all year long, and 1473 01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,639 Speaker 4: we know the Saints offense is the best in the league. 1474 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:23,760 Speaker 4: We'll go too deep there. You do have a Saint 1475 01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:26,200 Speaker 4: secondary that's jackal and Hyde. So is it going to 1476 01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 4: be the really good Saint secretary? Is it going to 1477 01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 4: be the disappointing Saint secondary. 1478 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:32,280 Speaker 2: Your guess is as good as mine. 1479 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,840 Speaker 4: But they where this game will be decided on is 1480 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,840 Speaker 4: what will the Saints offense look like? Here's what if 1481 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,960 Speaker 4: Drew Brees plays and is healthy. We don't know if 1482 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,000 Speaker 4: he's healthy, but I. 1483 01:11:43,320 --> 01:11:45,160 Speaker 2: Assume the Saints are won. 1484 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:46,960 Speaker 4: The Saints are tied with the Packers, with the Packers 1485 01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 4: have beat them, the Packers have an easier schedule the Ones. 1486 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 4: He doesn't look great for them, so maybe they're I 1487 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 4: wouldn't think that they would rush Brees back with if 1488 01:11:56,040 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 4: he's not fully healthy, with his lungs and broken ribs. 1489 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:04,200 Speaker 4: If he plays and he's healthy, I make this line. 1490 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:07,679 Speaker 4: Is that the Saints right now the number two team 1491 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 4: in the NFL power ratings wise. I make this line 1492 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:14,439 Speaker 4: one point seven to one point eight. If Breeze plays 1493 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 4: and is healthy, he does not, and Taysom Hill plays, 1494 01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:22,120 Speaker 4: I make this line around four four point two, so 1495 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 4: you can see my difference between them. As at this point, 1496 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 4: it's a little less than a field goal. If they 1497 01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:29,320 Speaker 4: decide to go with Winston because they want to throw 1498 01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 4: it and Hill has shown who he is, I make 1499 01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:35,439 Speaker 4: the line around three. So Winston plays, no play. If 1500 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:37,639 Speaker 4: Breeze plays, and I assume he's healthy, I like the Saints, 1501 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,599 Speaker 4: although I do think if Hill plays, and I would 1502 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 4: say chances are that that's probably the route they go 1503 01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:43,639 Speaker 4: as of right now. 1504 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:45,600 Speaker 2: There are some things that the Saints can do. 1505 01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 4: They might just go completely run heavy, using Hill a 1506 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 4: lot to run it, control the clock against Kansas City's 1507 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:54,519 Speaker 4: bad run defense, Keith Mahomes on the sidelines, and shorten 1508 01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 4: this game. That's one route they could go, and he'll 1509 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:58,639 Speaker 4: with his skill set running the ball. 1510 01:12:58,520 --> 01:12:59,840 Speaker 2: He could have some success here. 1511 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 4: So there's just a lot of moving parts here with 1512 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 4: who's going to play quarterback for the Saints, depending on 1513 01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:08,559 Speaker 4: which of the three. I don't even know if Winston 1514 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 4: even has a prayer, but would he It would decide 1515 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 4: whether I like the Chiefs, the Saints or a pass. 1516 01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 3: I think the Saints can like this is even with Hill. 1517 01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,040 Speaker 3: I agree. I think this is like a sneaky upset 1518 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:22,360 Speaker 3: spot for the Saints. Sean Payton coming off a loss, 1519 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 3: you know he'll have this team prepared. He's forty six 1520 01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 3: and twenty five against the spread coming off a lost 1521 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 3: sixty five percent. The Saints are also a stay hit 1522 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 3: at seventy five percent nine to three against spread as 1523 01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:37,599 Speaker 3: a home dog under Sean Payton. It hasn't happened Austin, 1524 01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:40,000 Speaker 3: so this is a This is kind of a spot 1525 01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 3: where it hasn't been smart to bet against Sean Payton, 1526 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:46,120 Speaker 3: so this is probably not It's probably Saints or nothing 1527 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 3: for me. Either way. This could also be a sneaky 1528 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 3: undergame if if Hill indeed goes and it looks like 1529 01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 3: Breeze isn't gonna go. And I think they said Winston 1530 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 3: would get like a long term look, you know, in 1531 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:58,840 Speaker 3: the future, but I don't think that had anything to 1532 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 3: do with this week. So it looks like it's going 1533 01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 3: to be Taysom. The next game we have up here 1534 01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 3: is the Jags plus twelve and a half at Baltimore. Baltimore. 1535 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:12,360 Speaker 3: Baltimore just put wide receivers Marquise Brown, Miles Boykin, and 1536 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,920 Speaker 3: James Prochet, who also returns punts for them on the 1537 01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:19,679 Speaker 3: COVID nineteen list. Not sure if these guys are definitely 1538 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,800 Speaker 3: going to miss or they're just close contacts and could 1539 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:25,400 Speaker 3: be cleared at this point as we record, But thoughts 1540 01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:26,599 Speaker 3: on this one stuck. 1541 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:28,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, I got to wait to see on the COVID 1542 01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:31,040 Speaker 4: news and I've been on the surface. I made this 1543 01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:35,080 Speaker 4: line around thirteen thirteen and a half. The Jags are terrible. 1544 01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:37,120 Speaker 4: The Ravens should be able to. 1545 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:37,920 Speaker 2: Run the ball on them. 1546 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 4: I don't know if there's much Jacksonville can do, although 1547 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 4: there's some injuries to watch on Baltimore's secondaries. Well, they 1548 01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:48,599 Speaker 4: also could be a little flat to short week after 1549 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 4: that basically see season saving win. So I would have 1550 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 4: shopped me if Jacksonville gets in the back door here 1551 01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 4: or the Ravens just do enough to win by seven 1552 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 4: to ten. No would have shop me at the Jags 1553 01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 4: get blown out. So there's a lot of things to 1554 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:06,160 Speaker 4: monitor here from injurying COVID situation for Baltimore. But it's 1555 01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,960 Speaker 4: hard to see myself having a position in this game. 1556 01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:11,720 Speaker 3: And then we have the books as five and a 1557 01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 3: half point favorites over the Atlanta Falcons. 1558 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:18,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is I see value in the Falcons, especially 1559 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:22,120 Speaker 4: if you can get six. But it's I mean, the 1560 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 4: Falcons in the red zone woes and is Julio Jones 1561 01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:27,439 Speaker 4: gonna play? I mean, the difference between Wilio Jones playing 1562 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:30,960 Speaker 4: and not with that offense is enormous, and I need 1563 01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 4: to know that he's fully healthy to back Atlanta here 1564 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 4: to keep up with Tampa. So ultimately, especially they're gonna 1565 01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 4: be settling for field goals all day. Value here is 1566 01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:45,160 Speaker 4: with the Falcons. I don't know where this team is 1567 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:49,760 Speaker 4: at mentally after last week too. It's a divisional game. 1568 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:52,320 Speaker 4: I'm sure they'll probably be up for it, but I 1569 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:54,400 Speaker 4: see more reasons to not bet this game than to 1570 01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:57,479 Speaker 4: bet it. Maybe this line goes crazy and it gets 1571 01:15:57,520 --> 01:15:59,919 Speaker 4: the seven, then obviously I would I would take Atlanta, 1572 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:02,680 Speaker 4: but I do see a small bit of value at 1573 01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:06,640 Speaker 4: six on the Falcons. But I mean, Julio is just 1574 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 4: so important from you just look at the yards per 1575 01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:13,320 Speaker 4: route run. I mean, the guy who's he's run. Look 1576 01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,400 Speaker 4: call Biggie is and he ran like a four three forty. 1577 01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 4: That's not fair. He's You're not supposed to be that good. Obviously, 1578 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 4: he's probably gonna go in the downward trajectory soon. But 1579 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:22,439 Speaker 4: if you have him and Ridley out there, the offense, 1580 01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 4: it's just the offense is so much different, and I 1581 01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 4: don't I don't have any confidence that he's going to 1582 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 4: play this weekend or be out there for the entire game. 1583 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:31,760 Speaker 2: The Falcons are done. I mean, I'm sure they're not 1584 01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 2: going to try and force anything with them, So maybe 1585 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:35,080 Speaker 2: a pass here. 1586 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm showing some value on the Falcons as well, 1587 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:40,559 Speaker 3: but it does look like Julio's week to week, so 1588 01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:43,800 Speaker 3: that that's not ideal. Uh don't really, like you said, 1589 01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:46,639 Speaker 3: set it back the Pats here, So probably a stay 1590 01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:49,000 Speaker 3: away could be a sneaky undergame. The Falcons defense still 1591 01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:52,400 Speaker 3: holding opponents in the twenties, so you know, if you 1592 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,400 Speaker 3: expect the Bucks to win and expect the Falcons defense 1593 01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 3: to hold the opponent in the twenties, you're probably not 1594 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:02,679 Speaker 3: getting to total of fish and a half. So yeah, 1595 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 3: so that might be the play here, especially if no Julio. 1596 01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:10,160 Speaker 3: All Right, that wraps it up for the best of 1597 01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 3: the rest. Let's get into our Survivor pool Pick of. 1598 01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:20,360 Speaker 2: The week one pick one chance to advance Survivor. 1599 01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 3: All Right, it's week fifteen. We've both lost numerous times 1600 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,559 Speaker 3: already this year. But if you had to take a 1601 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 3: Survivor team for this week, where are you going? 1602 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:35,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean when I did my Survivor thanks Dolphins 1603 01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:38,479 Speaker 4: beating the Niners. When I mapped out my whole year, 1604 01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:40,439 Speaker 4: my reason was I wanted to be one of the 1605 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:43,200 Speaker 4: few left standing and then have the Ravens when I 1606 01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:46,760 Speaker 4: assume not many people would for this week. Now, if 1607 01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:48,760 Speaker 4: you have the Rams, you're in good shape too. You 1608 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:51,000 Speaker 4: can still use them. But yeah, I haven't used the 1609 01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:53,759 Speaker 4: Ravens yet, and this was the week. The whole reason 1610 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 4: why I wanted to save the Ravens all the way 1611 01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:58,760 Speaker 4: until the end of the year, so I would use 1612 01:17:58,800 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 4: the Ravens here. 1613 01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 3: Yeah. Same, that's kind of the slams up matchup. Just hope, 1614 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 3: hope that nobody no, no more further COVID shenanigans go 1615 01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:10,679 Speaker 3: down with the team. But as of now, it looks 1616 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 3: like you just have the three receivers on the list, 1617 01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 3: So not a reason to panic yet. I mean, losing 1618 01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:19,000 Speaker 3: Brown for the game would hurt a bit, but this 1619 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:22,360 Speaker 3: is still a Jaguars team that's going to be vulnerable 1620 01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:24,880 Speaker 3: on defense, and they do have Mark Andrews back so 1621 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:28,200 Speaker 3: shouldn't be too big of a loss even if he sits. 1622 01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, like the Ravens for this week, that's going 1623 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:35,280 Speaker 3: to do it.
