The units are there. 46 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: Brandon was able to get one of his picks last 47 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: week at a lower number headed than the article, so 48 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: hopefully you got the best number. 49 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 5: That does happen. When we recorded on a Thursday afternoon. 50 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: And the guys had leans on Kansas City and Miami 51 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: that both hit, we didn't give them out his official picks. 52 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: We didn't cut it towards the record, but their hunches 53 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: were correct as you'd imagine. Less games. 54 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 5: That means we're just going to do. 55 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: A couple of bets apiece, and we'll start with Grant 56 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: me for we're going to go in chronological order of 57 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,399 Speaker 1: the game, so we'll start in Baltimore, Grant Houston and 58 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens. Baltimore's laying nine and a half. The totals 59 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: at forty three and a half. You are going to 60 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: a prop, but he got for us. 61 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, so Max l rolling with Devin Singletary over fifty 62 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 6: eight and a half rushing yards. I know that the 63 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 6: game script really wouldn't suggest too much that they're going 64 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 6: to be ryding the ball a lot. I mean, Houston's 65 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 6: been an interesting team all season when it comes to 66 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 6: running backs. Gave Pierce the rains and Singletary. Then Pierce 67 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 6: came back. You know, we'll give him decent amount. And 68 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 6: then now Singletary's clearly taken over the lead back. They 69 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 6: don't really want Piers in there at all. This is 70 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 6: Singletary's offense. He's the workhorse back. He's been fantastic. He's 71 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 6: hit the over in six of the last seven games, 72 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 6: and I think nine out of the last twelve games too, 73 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 6: of those games coming when Pierce came back and they're like, 74 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 6: we'll give him some more. Now Pierce is just kind 75 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 6: of out of the offense. He had a few snaps 76 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 6: in the Cleveland game. That was when they're way out 77 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 6: ahead fifty eight and a half too low of the 78 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 6: line match versus Baltimore not really the greatest matchup on 79 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,119 Speaker 6: the ground, but it is the worst matchup through the air. 80 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 6: There's going to be win, there's going to be freezing 81 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 6: temperatures is supposed to be low twenties. I think this 82 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 6: game really more lens itself to the ground game in Houston. 83 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 6: While they've been kind of good all season, I don't 84 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 6: think they're fully recognized how good they are. I know 85 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 6: Baltimore has blown out some good teams all season long. 86 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 6: They've been great. But I think this game is going 87 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 6: to stay a little bit more close than the spreadould 88 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 6: suggest at the moment, and with the low total fourth 89 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 6: forty three and a half, I think that Houston's going 90 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 6: to grind it out on the ground a little bit. 91 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 6: I mean, a lot of Stroud success has come through 92 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 6: the air, deep balls to Nico Collums. Seems like every 93 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 6: single week we see Nico Collins sixty yard touchdown, seven 94 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 6: yard touchdown before that was tanked Dell so wind cold 95 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 6: weather's gonna make that a little bit tougher. Rely more 96 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 6: on the ground game, and Singletary is clearly the guy. 97 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 6: I haven't projected for about ten yards over this number, 98 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 6: and I think my projection. 99 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: Still might be a little low. So I absolutely love 100 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: the over in the spot. 101 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: That number is moving too, so I want to get 102 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: this number as soon as possible. Numbers creeping into the 103 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: sixties and other books, other markets, so be sure to 104 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: hop on Singletary. Staying in the running game, Jill Gallant 105 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: anytime touchdown better? 106 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 5: Who might you want to target in this game? 107 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 4: Jill, Yeah, I mean I think it's got to be 108 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 4: Gus Edwards, but I would say right now you got 109 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 4: to play it above plus one twenty. But the one 110 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 4: thing that's good news, though, is that fair odds for 111 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 4: Gus Edwards right now is probably around plus one oh five. 112 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 4: Speaking with our colleague Nick Giffen, who does the fair 113 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 4: expected odds for anytime touchdowns, he has this around plus 114 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 4: one ten. So getting it at plus one thirty five 115 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 4: is a solid look here for Gus, because Gus, I mean, 116 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 4: let's start off thirteen rushing touchdowns this year, finished the 117 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 4: season strong with fifteen red zone carries and three touchdowns 118 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 4: over the final four games, and you could even discount 119 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 4: that final game against the Steelers because barely any of 120 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 4: the starters played. Now, the Texans defense, they ranked second 121 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 4: in DV away versus the run, but I feel like 122 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 4: that's kind of overrating what the Texans do between the 123 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 4: twenties because when they get into the red zone and 124 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 4: opponents do get into the red zone, they've been pretty 125 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 4: efficient and allowing touchdowns as well is kind of what 126 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 4: the Texans have been doing. Nineteen rushing touchdowns allowed this 127 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 4: year that was twenty ninth in the NFL. Edwards is 128 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 4: tied for first in the NFL and carries inside the 129 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 4: five yard line with twelve touchdowns that's second in the 130 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 4: NFL as well. So when they get there, it's pretty 131 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 4: much Gus's show. Now, when we saw that wildcard game 132 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 4: against the Browns on Kareem Hunt for in anytime touchdown, 133 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 4: and part of this was because when they get into 134 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: the red zone, that's kind of what when they kind 135 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 4: of fold and roll over and Kareem Hunt. He scored early. 136 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 4: He actually scored both of the touchdowns for Cleveland. Not 137 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 4: sure if I would have had that pegas he being 138 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 4: the only Brown to score in that game. But again, 139 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 4: I felt like the cap was on point there. But 140 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 4: the Ravens are also a team. They're built to start fast. 141 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 4: We've seen many instances where they just put a pounding 142 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 4: on teams. They've outscored opponents by an average of nine 143 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 4: point six points per game in first halves this year. Now, 144 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 4: obviously the big risk would be what about Lamar Jackson? 145 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: Could he vulture you? 146 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 4: I'm kind of doubtful he's gonna do that because he's 147 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 4: got thirty red zone carries this year, but only five 148 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 4: inside the five yard line. This is his first playoff 149 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: game in three years due to those injuries and the. 150 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 2: Way that his running style is. 151 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 4: So for me, it's not if it's more win the 152 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 4: Ravens get inside the ten yard line. Gus Edwards, this 153 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: is getting the ball for me. This should be closer 154 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 4: to minus one twenty. But the fact we're getting at 155 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 4: a plus one thirty five, I think we got to 156 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 4: take this every time so Gus Edwards anytime touchdown is 157 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 4: who I like in that open or for divisional round. 158 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: So is it fair to say that the market based 159 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: on what you're saying, tell me if I'm wrong. You're 160 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: almost saying that the market is not correct on Jackson? 161 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 5: Is that fair? 162 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: Yeah? 163 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: Because so he has five rushing touchdowns this year, three 164 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 4: games basically of the full sixteen games that he's played 165 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 4: where he's rushed for a touchdown. But we get so 166 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 4: allured with Lamar Jackson and what he could break the 167 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 4: big run that that's really the instance. Now when he's 168 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 4: scoring those touchdowns, he's not really trying for it inside 169 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 4: the ten yard, inside the five yard line, and his 170 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 4: rushing attempts has slowly started to decrease as the year 171 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 4: is going on, especially in the red zone. So for 172 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 4: him as well, they're also getting these big leads so 173 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 4: fast he doesn't need to try to really assert himself 174 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: in that spot because when you have a guy like 175 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 4: Gus who will just fall forward for five yards, it 176 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 4: feels like almost every time they have to they're not 177 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 4: attributing to what he's actually going to bring to that offense. 178 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 4: Comparatively to Lamar, I just think Lamar a right now 179 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 4: the anytime touchdown market because it's a primetime game. Lamar 180 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 4: is a very like he's the MVP favorite. That's why 181 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 4: his odds are around plus one oh five and plus 182 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 4: one ten. But I don't think I think those should 183 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 4: be closer to about plus one forty given the track 184 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 4: record of the way that he's running the football this year. 185 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: He hasn't had a rushing touchdown since that Lions game 186 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: back in October Week seven at home. I hate to 187 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: be the are you watching the games? 188 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: Guy? 189 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 5: But yes, you make a good point. 190 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: Lamar hasn't been in the playoffs in a while, so 191 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: maybe people that are just tuning in they're really sinking 192 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: their teeth into neutral football if they're not a fan 193 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: of the Ravens and Todd Munkins did a phenomenal job 194 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: turning him into a pocket passer and then running when. 195 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 5: You have to in certain cases. 196 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: But to your point, they've been winning by so much, 197 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: and I know a lot of the company is on 198 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: the Ravens first half, which would bode well for Gus 199 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: to pick up carries and just kind of steamroll into 200 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: the end zone if the Ravens are playing from a 201 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: head so I just think that's a good call out 202 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: and a good reminder, like he's such a public guy 203 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: to want to bet on, but the market's caught up, 204 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: or the market hasn't caught up based on their It 205 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 1: just don't be fooled into that, I think because Munkin's 206 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: did a really good job implementing a passing game. 207 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 5: Brandon, nice, go ahead, please. 208 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 4: One last point I was just gonna say, though, is 209 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 4: that if Lamar is running for a touchdown early, that's 210 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 4: only going to likely help the gusspit because that likely 211 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 4: means the regions are rolling. 212 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: They're going to run the ball more. 213 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 5: Good point. 214 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, they could both hit, It's true. Okay, Brandon Anderson. 215 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: I know we normally lead with you, but we're going 216 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: in order. So let's go to Tampa and Detroit. You've 217 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: got a play here. What do you have for us? 218 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? 219 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 7: I had to get in on the running back fun 220 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 7: as well, but I'm gonna actually go the other direction. 221 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 7: So four games this weekend we might be getting why 222 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 7: they're in three of them. The one we know we 223 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 7: won't is the game in Detroit. It's inside, you know, 224 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 7: don't don't tell Todd Bowles about the game. Being indoors. 225 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 3: He knows it is. 226 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 7: Don't ask any reporters strange questions. But I think we're 227 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 7: gonna get a lot of passing in that game. So 228 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 7: I'm gonna take Rashad White under sixty and a half 229 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 7: rushing attempts in Detroit. So these teams played in Detroit 230 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 7: in Week six. It's a snoozer twenty to six, terribly 231 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 7: boring game. The main takeaway is that in that game, 232 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 7: the teams combined to run thirty eight times for eighty 233 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 7: six yards. If you look at plays called, they called 234 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 7: thirty five runs combined to ninety passing plays for these teams. 235 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 7: And I think that we're gonna see a similar script 236 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 7: here in that the Bucks have had the number one 237 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 7: run defense by DVA the last six weeks of the season. 238 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 7: Vitevea up the middle, always tough against the run, and 239 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 7: the Lions have the number one run DVA for the 240 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 7: entire season. Ali McNeil's back. They've been really good. The 241 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 7: Buccaneers are dead last and run black win rate, so 242 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 7: they just have no shot to run here. I think 243 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 7: we see, you know, we've got these hot young coordinators 244 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 7: Dave Canals for the Bucks, Ben Johnson for the Lions. 245 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 7: You're seeing those names a lot in the head coaching searches. 246 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 7: Those guys are gonna know what's happening here. They're gonna 247 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 7: abandon the run quickly. I think the Bucks even more 248 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 7: than the Lions. The Lions are much better running, and 249 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 7: we're gonna see a lot of passing. I'm staying away 250 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 7: from a side because I gotta say, if we're coming 251 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 7: down to the quarterbacks here Jared Goff Baker Mayfield, I 252 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 7: don't really know what I'm gonna get here, but I 253 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 7: don't think're gonna see a lot of running. Rashad White 254 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 7: in that Detroit game seven carries for twenty six yards. 255 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 7: That was both of those were his lowest total of 256 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 7: this season. He said eight games this year where he's 257 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 7: run for forty two yards or less. So when it's 258 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 7: not working, they kind of just chuck it and they 259 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 7: go to the passing game. We've seen Baker's been heating 260 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 7: up with the. 261 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 3: Yolo balls all year. 262 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 7: And there's also the script where Detroit just rolls and 263 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 7: Detroit's up big, and so what are you gonna do? 264 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 3: Not run the ball into the line? Every time? 265 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 7: We're gonna pass the ball some more so, I just 266 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 7: see a lot of ways where White just doesn't get 267 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 7: the carries. Now, late in the season, White took on 268 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 7: more of kind of a workhorse role as carries are up, 269 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 7: but that's when the Bucks were winning. Look at the 270 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 7: win loss splits here. Here's how it goes ten times 271 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 7: this year, Rareshad White said seventeen carries anymore so over 272 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 7: this nine of those ten we're gonna win six double 273 00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 7: digit wins. Bucks are a touchdown underdog here or last 274 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 7: carries eight times this season. Seven of those eight were 275 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 7: in losses. So if you look at just Buck's losses, 276 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 7: which is what we're expecting here, twelve point three carries 277 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 7: for forty eight yards for a shot White and some 278 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 7: of those real low. For the whole season, he's averaging 279 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 7: three point six yards of carries. So it's just it's 280 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 7: not working. Like the Bucks are not about the run game. 281 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 7: It's just not what they are. I think sixteen and 282 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 7: a half is a terrible line. It's only up at 283 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 7: one book right now. Take the under there if you 284 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 7: got it, fifteen and a half is around evan odds, 285 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 7: So I like that one as well. I would personally 286 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 7: make this line more like thirteen and a half, which 287 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 7: is a huge discrepancy on the line. But Brandon, you 288 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 7: know all of my escalators here, how about a de escalator. 289 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 7: How about we take the escalator yeah down for a while, 290 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 7: so you gotta look around. You got to look for it. 291 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 7: See if your books have lines going down. But I 292 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 7: mentioned the under fifteen and a half carries even money. 293 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 7: There's a book out there at under thirteen and a half. 294 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 7: Remember that's the line. I think it should be plus 295 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 7: one seventy five. I like that one as well. And 296 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 7: if you want to play the rush yards under forty 297 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 7: one and a half yards plus two ten under thirty 298 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 7: and a half plus five hundred as with an escalator, 299 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 7: just s trinkling along the way there. But I just 300 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 7: do not think this is a rashod white rushing game 301 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 7: at all. 302 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: Maybe the dude. 303 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 7: Catches some passes, he'll be out there, but give me 304 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 7: their shod white under sixty and a half rushing attempts. 305 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: Okay, the down escalator rare to hear from Brandon Anderson, 306 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: But good points. I think both teams this is a 307 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: passing game. And I think I think you make a 308 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: good point about the Detroit possibility of blowing them out. 309 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: Then they're gonna have to throw Kyraen Williams. It was 310 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: the back for the Rams. He had his struggles broke 311 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: off a couple really interestingly, I wasn't expecting the Rams 312 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: to really run the ball in the second half because 313 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: it just couldn't run the ball. They weren't productive. So 314 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: credit to the Lions. You knowed their DVA numbers. But 315 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: Kyron made it a little interesting. And then he never 316 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: got close to eighty eighty and a half. I think 317 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: is where his line closed. Just talking yards, not carries. 318 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: This podcast is proudly presented by BETMGM.

Hello Fresh America's 347 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: number one meal kit. Okay, Grant Neeffer, We're not going 348 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: to go to a player prop here. We're gonna stick 349 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: to a total in this same game, which is Sunday, 350 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 1: by the way, Bucks Lions. 351 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 5: First game of the day on Sunday. 352 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: What do you got? 353 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 6: So I'm rolling the Lions over twenty seven and a 354 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 6: half points. You can get the same where from minus 355 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 6: one oh four to minus one p fifteen juice right 356 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 6: now on the over. And I was going back and 357 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 6: forth between going for the over the entire game and 358 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 6: the Lions over. Couldn't quite make a decision. Finally just 359 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 6: went with the one with lower juice and went with 360 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 6: a team total for the Lions. But I still like 361 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 6: both of them. The Lions in Dome in the Dome 362 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 6: have been just absolutely fantastic, going all the way back 363 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 6: to the beginning of last season, putting up thirty points 364 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 6: per game in a dome. They've had over this number 365 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 6: in fourteen of twenty four I think game fifteen of 366 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 6: twenty four games something like that. But they've been even 367 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 6: better at home last season thirty three points per game 368 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 6: at home this season thirty was brought down a little 369 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 6: bit last week where I actually had their over and 370 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 6: the over for the game and I almost Nick Giffen, 371 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 6: who I had it with, almost paid me out in 372 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 6: the first quarter and then that went downhill real quickly. 373 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 6: Didn't really have much scoring in the second half of 374 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 6: the Lions there, But yeah, just overall they have been 375 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 6: absolutely fantastic at home. They've been putting up big points. 376 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 6: This is a matchup versus Tampa Bay where, like Brandon said, 377 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 6: they're probably going to be passing the ball a bit 378 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 6: more in this spot should lead to bigger, better game script. 379 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 6: A lot more Gibs on the outside instead Montgomery up 380 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 6: the middle can lead to bigger plays. We know Dan 381 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 6: Campbell loves to go for it on fourth down. He's 382 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 6: going to be aggressive this entire game. Lions in the 383 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 6: playoffs second time or a third game rather than twenty years. 384 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 6: This is going to be a good one. I think 385 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 6: it's actually going to be closer than six and a 386 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 6: half points spread currently has there. I mean, maybe the 387 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 6: Lions take it away at the end, but this is 388 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 6: going to be a high scoring game and the Lions 389 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 6: are going to be putting up a lot of points. 390 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 6: I don't mind taking the all overs all the way 391 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 6: up to like thirty five in this spot. 392 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 2: I haven't looked at the Lions too much. I can't 393 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 2: remember what it is at. 394 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 6: Thirty five plus points, but still Lions regularly over great. 395 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 6: Even if it moves to twenty eight and a half, 396 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 6: that's not nearly as good a number, but it'd still 397 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 6: take it there. 398 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Okay, follow grantony up, you'll get back to you. 399 00:17:58,680 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: Jill. 400 00:17:58,880 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: Can I ask you a question because I know you 401 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: have a touchdown bet on this game, but what's pretty 402 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: eye popping is you see five players around even odds 403 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: to score a touchdown Gibbs, Montgomery, White, Saint Brown, Evans. 404 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 1: I know you haven't put one in the app, but 405 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: can you just give a quick analysis on touchdown betting 406 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: in this game? 407 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? 408 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 4: So, I mean with the Lions, it's exactly what Grant 409 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 4: is looking at. It's part of it is the implied 410 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 4: team total, so they're already implying. 411 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 2: That scoring is going to happen. 412 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 4: The one thing I don't really agree with is necessarily 413 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 4: as the pricing on Montgomery and Gibbs, who are around 414 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 4: minus one twenty maybe minus one ten, just with the 415 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 4: success rate of the Tampa Bay run defense. So maybe 416 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 4: one of them might score, but right now they're implying 417 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 4: that both of them are going to score in this game. 418 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 4: But you're even seeing as well, like Sam Laporta around 419 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 4: like plus one fifty to plus one sixty as well, 420 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 4: who's walking with like the most balkiest knee brace you've 421 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 4: ever seen. And part of it is because of how 422 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 4: this defense has been struggling the Bucks, specifically their past defense. 423 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 4: So that's why, like with Grant, he's making a great 424 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 4: point with the idea that like the Lions are going 425 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 4: to roar at home because Jared Goff playing indoors at 426 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 4: home is amazing. He's got three to one touchdown interception ratios. 427 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 4: It's just coming to Detroit with that spot. So I 428 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 4: would think that right now, probably most of the scoring 429 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 4: is probably going to be going towards the receivers. But 430 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 4: I think at this point, because of David Montgomery's history 431 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 4: within the ten yard line and Jamier gives elusiveness as well, 432 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 4: especially both scoring last week against the Rams, they couldn't 433 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 4: really make the price much higher than that. And also 434 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 4: the implied team total of the Detroit Lions, there's just 435 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 4: a higher chance for more touchdowns from that side Mike Evans. Look, 436 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 4: he started off the season around plus one sixty. They 437 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 4: just they had to adjust it. They just they can't 438 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 4: do it now because you want to talk about yolo 439 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 4: balls like that's pretty much what Tampa Bay and Baker 440 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 4: has been doing all year with. 441 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: Mike Evans. So now books are just too tired of. 442 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 4: Getting beaten by listing a plus one sixty five or 443 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 4: plus one seventy for him that now they're just like, look, 444 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 4: we have to put it at plus one twenty. We 445 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 4: can't budge on it because Baker has shown that no 446 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 4: matter what happens, he is going to look for Mike 447 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 4: Evans down the field, and he probably should have scored 448 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 4: last week against the Eagles, he dropped one. 449 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,199 Speaker 1: Okay, the hero balls as you mapped out earlier, but 450 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: right over. 451 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,479 Speaker 7: A yeah, let me jump into just to say, I 452 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 7: actually do have a touchdown bet in this one that's 453 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 7: going to go in my every game article. 454 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 3: I do like Mike Evans. 455 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 7: Do you guys have heard me talk about Mike Evans 456 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 7: I think before on the touchdowns, there's of course one 457 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 7: forty out there at one book. He scored in eleven 458 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 7: out of eighteen games. Mike Evans. When you heard me 459 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 7: talk about him first this year was our before the 460 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 7: season pod when we got him at sixty to one 461 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 7: to lead the league in receiving touchdowns, and we did 462 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 7: split that with Tyreek Hill. 463 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 3: But that's been a guy that I've. 464 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 7: Been watching all season because of that, and the guy 465 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 7: just scores every week. Lions have allowed twenty two receiving touchdowns, 466 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 7: two wide receivers. That's the third most in the NFL. 467 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 7: So I just think that you can't put there anything 468 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 7: above even odds. And again, I like Grant to pick 469 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 7: on the over here. He talked about lines over game over, 470 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 7: we're gonna see passing like that. The Bucks are going 471 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 7: to have to try to find some points here, and 472 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 7: the lines don't really have anyone that should be able 473 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 7: to cover Evan, So I like that one. One note 474 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 7: also on the Detroit running backs, just you're not too 475 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 7: thrown off. I mentioned how the running was so low 476 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 7: last time in the previous meeting. I believe Gibbs was 477 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 7: out and then Montgomery got hurt in mid game and 478 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 7: we were down to just Craig Reynolds. So I do 479 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 7: think Detroit will run some a little, but I wouldn't 480 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 7: necessarily go so far away from Detroit rushes or Detroit 481 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 7: running touchdowns, just based on that analysis earlier. More of 482 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 7: a Tampa thing, but just wanted to clarify that since 483 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 7: I had talked about it as both sides. 484 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know where a Best Bets podcast, But I 485 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: think the analysis, even on plays you might not be making, 486 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: or in your case, Brandon, that you are making, is 487 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: helpful for people to make decisions this week because it's 488 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: not necessarily about volume. But there's also the argument as 489 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 1: to why you might not want to touch something. You 490 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: don't have to bet everything this weekend. I think that's 491 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: a common lesson that is big this time of year. 492 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: With just four games, we're working backwards. We're going to 493 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: get to Packers and Niners here in just a second. 494 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: But just because we're not going to give picks, you 495 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: guys are not going to give picks on this game, 496 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: Chiefs and Bills. Brandon, you teased it. You'll have the 497 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: any game, every game. 498 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 5: What is it again? 499 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: What's the title again? I apologize? 500 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 3: Oh, that's every game, every team article. 501 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: It goes up on Friday, every game, every team. I 502 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: was ready to say any time thinking touchdowns, Thank you, Brandon. 503 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: You do have a lean or two on Casey Buffalo. 504 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, just a couple of quick ones. One of them. 505 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 7: I won't even make the case for it because you 506 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 7: heard it a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately in a 507 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 7: week that didn't hit. But give me the Josh Allen touchdown. 508 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 7: Josh Allen, I believe finished third and rushing touchdowns anytime. 509 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 7: Touchdown odds or even for him. He scored in thirteen 510 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 7: on eighteen games so far. He had one in the 511 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 7: playoff game last week. He's had nine touchdowns last seven games, 512 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,120 Speaker 7: including one against the Chiefs. So high like that, he's 513 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 7: gonna find the end zone. We're gonna see points in 514 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 7: that game. Two touchdowns is plus six hundred if you 515 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 7: want to do that escalator as well there. So I 516 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 7: like Allen touchdown best and then if you've got it. 517 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 7: I looked and one thing I played when these teams 518 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 7: played about six weeks ago is all six times we've 519 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 7: had Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen. What do you envision 520 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 7: when you think of that game? You think of late 521 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 7: in the game, back and forth, get a field goal here, 522 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 7: a touchdown here, like we're gonna get that chess match late. 523 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 7: Both teams have scored in every fourth quarter all six 524 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 7: matchups when these teams have played each other. So you 525 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 7: look under, look deep in the books, but look under 526 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter tab and a lot of times you 527 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 7: can bet both teams to score in the quarter. 528 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 3: Yes or no. 529 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 7: It's around minus one sixty so you're paying a lot. 530 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 7: But six for six that we've hit on this one. 531 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 7: I think this stays close throughout. I don't really know 532 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 7: who's gonna win. I would lean bills on the game, 533 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 7: but right at a field goal, I think that's basically 534 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 7: about the right line. I do think both teams score late, 535 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 7: and we get that that always at the. 536 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 3: End, who's got the ball last? 537 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 7: Right, Someone's gonna score, Someone's gonna have a chance to 538 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 7: respond at the end, maybe we finally get our first 539 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 7: overtime that you know, that literally the rule that got 540 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 7: put into place because of these teams the last time 541 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 7: we saw them. So I like the both teams to 542 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,959 Speaker 7: score in the fourth quarter around minus one sixty one 543 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 7: to seventy if you've got that as well. 544 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: Okay, back to Jill touchdown angles and something I wanted 545 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: to pick your brain about too, and I couldn't believe 546 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: it when I saw it. The price has moved since 547 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: from earlier in the week. But Josh Allen Patrick mahomes 548 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: to throw picks at even money. Josh Allen has not 549 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: thrown a pick in only four games this year, including 550 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs. That does include the Pittsburgh game, But that 551 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: got me thinking, why is that price that way? And 552 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: then also maybe touchdown angles Jill for this game. 553 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 4: I likely just because pass attempts maybe down depending on 554 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 4: whether But again I think the other thing too is 555 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 4: that both of these teams are going to be in 556 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 4: gotta habit mode in second half. They're going to be 557 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 4: throwing more. And both of these teams were top five 558 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 4: and it per dropback rate and can get to the quarterbacks. 559 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,719 Speaker 4: So I'm not really too worried about you know, they 560 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,239 Speaker 4: got to have a part. I would look at them 561 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 4: as well. I mean, the fact that they're both plus 562 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 4: money I should tell you something, especially that they were 563 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 4: both finished top three in profits for interception props this 564 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 4: year if you just bet one unit on each of them. 565 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 4: But from a long shot perspective, so last week I 566 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 4: was on Noah Gray for at any time touchdown, and 567 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 4: part of it was just about the same handicap that 568 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 4: you would make for Travis Kelcey is pretty much the 569 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 4: same handicap you could do with Noah Gray. Like they 570 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 4: were both struggling against tight ends. Now neither ended up 571 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: scoring because neither really had to. But in this game, 572 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 4: I think the Chiefs are going to have to throw 573 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 4: a little bit more and I'm looking at a long shot. 574 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 4: I'm going at Justin Watson around plus five point fifty. 575 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 4: So part of the reason why I want Watson to 576 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 4: over say somebody like Marcus Beldaz Scantling another one who 577 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 4: will be able to get deep at like plus eight fifty. 578 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 2: Is so the Bills this season. 579 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 4: One of the things that they can be beat on 580 00:25:57,920 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 4: is a little bit is the deep past. They were 581 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 4: twenty third and D to the deep pass and twenty 582 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 4: fifth of DVOI to the wide receiver two. And right 583 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 4: now the way that the Chiefs offense is staggering up, 584 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 4: Justin Watson has end up now in that wide receiver 585 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 4: two role behind Rashid Rice. And for me, he's also 586 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 4: had a lot of flashes of success versus both man 587 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 4: and zone coverage. Because the Bills are one of the 588 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 4: few defenses they're kind of middle of the pack on 589 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 4: both they play a mix of both like quite often 590 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,239 Speaker 4: and MBS. That's the one thing that you can use 591 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 4: to immediately eliminate him. He hasn't been successful versus either defense, 592 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 4: whereas at least Justin Watson, you've seen his yards, reute run, 593 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 4: his a DOC go up if they're in a trailing 594 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 4: game script in the second half and they need to 595 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 4: move the ball down the field. Justin Watson is one 596 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 4: of those few players that I know that can get 597 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 4: open down the field, especially with Patrick Mahomes, who I 598 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,479 Speaker 4: feel is still one of the few quarterbacks that in 599 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 4: those gotta habit moments could buy time in the pocket 600 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 4: with his legs. 601 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 2: To be able for the Rose receivers to get downfield. 602 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 4: So Justin Watson is who I'm looking at for a 603 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 4: long shot at plus five point fifty. But Brandon, I'm 604 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 4: probably going to have to go against you, dude. I'm 605 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 4: kind of looking at James Cook for in any time 606 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 4: touchdown right now. I haven't logged it yet. It's a 607 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 4: round plus one fifty five. And part of the reason 608 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 4: why I'm looking at him isn't necessarily that I'm disagreeing 609 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 4: with you on the Josh Allen part because I feel 610 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 4: like when they need to have it, Josh Allen is 611 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 4: getting the ball inside the ten yard line. But the 612 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 4: part of the reason why I wanted Cook here is because, well, a, 613 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 4: he should have had a touchdown last week against the Steelers, 614 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 4: he dropped one in the end zone. But over the 615 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 4: last few weeks you started to see his role increase 616 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 4: as the Bills have shifted their offense to more of 617 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 4: a running attack, and so he had eighteen red zone 618 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 4: touches over the last five games coming into that wild 619 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 4: card game, and he did score against the Chiefs when 620 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 4: they played earlier this year, finishing with five catches in 621 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 4: eighty three yards. But another reason too is that this 622 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 4: Chiefs defense, they're twenty seven the DVOWA versus the run, 623 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 4: but they're also twenty third in DVOA versus running backs 624 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 4: as receivers. So that was part of the reason why. Okay, 625 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 4: if he's going to be catching the passes out of 626 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 4: that backfield, that's who I would look at. From a 627 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 4: James Cook perspective, I will say definitely not sexy. Odds 628 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 4: around plus one forty five one plus fifty five, and 629 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 4: it's a super frustrating player to bet because you know 630 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 4: that inside the five yard line, if he doesn't do 631 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 4: it on the first down, Josh Allen is for sure 632 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 4: doing it on the second down. 633 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: So that's the thing. 634 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 4: But what I would just say, but I'm willing to 635 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 4: have a short term memory and just say, Okay, James Cook, 636 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 4: let's do it again, and let's make it happen again 637 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 4: against the Chiefs. So that's what I would just say 638 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 4: is that I think Josh Allen is going to score 639 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 4: again this week. But I also think that James Cook 640 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 4: is being undervalued a little bit based on his role 641 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 4: in this offense. 642 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: All right, very good, good stuff, Grant. I haven't gone 643 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: to you in a bit. Need to add on this game. 644 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: Anything you're leaning towards or is it kind of a 645 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: stay away game, because like Brandon said, who knows where 646 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: this one goes? 647 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I'm gonna kind of wait and see 648 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 6: where the weather's going to end up at probably tomorrow 649 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 6: I'll look into it a little bit more. That can 650 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 6: kind of determine things quite a bit. As of right now, 651 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 6: mostly stay away looking at the under in that one. 652 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 6: But right now, there's nothing that's really stood off the 653 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 6: page to me that I really want to. 654 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 2: Have in that game. 655 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 5: Okay, very good. That is Sunday night. 656 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: By the way, let's work back in time, so apology. 657 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: If he started chronologically, we're going to work backwards back 658 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: to Saturday evening Green Bay, San Francisco. 659 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 5: Will go back to Jill. 660 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: You do have at any time touchdown bet that you've 661 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,719 Speaker 1: already put in the app and you want to give 662 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: it out here. 663 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely so. 664 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Jayden Reid at plus two twenty 665 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 4: for a touchdown with the Packers. Now, Jayden Reid he 666 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 4: led the Packers with ten touchdowns this year, eight receiving, 667 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 4: two rushing, very versatile rookie player. He leads all Packers 668 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 4: receivers with twenty red zone touches. But the key part 669 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 4: here is that he plays in the slot the most 670 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 4: of any Packers wide receiver, even over Dontavian Wicks. And 671 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 4: I've been banging this drum all year about how the 672 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 4: way that I guess if there's one weakness for this 673 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 4: forty nine Ers defense this year, it's shifty slot speed 674 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 4: receivers getting the touchdowns this year. So here's some of 675 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 4: the guys who have had success versus this Niners defenses 676 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 4: this year, you have Jordan Addison, Zay Flowers, DeVante Smith, 677 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 4: Tyler Boyd, Christian Kirk. They what do they have all 678 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 4: in common? They all line up in the slot at 679 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 4: a fifty percent rate or higher. And you could even 680 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: go back Mike Evans if we're talking about the Buccaneers again, 681 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 4: when he scored a touchdown on this defense, lined up 682 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 4: in the slot. 683 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 2: Terry mcclaurin typically lines up outside. 684 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 4: That time that he scored a touchdown on them, he 685 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 4: lined up in the slot. So again, the speedy slot 686 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 4: receivers are the ones who have been having the most 687 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 4: success on this defense. Now, another reason why we like 688 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: Reid is howie fares versus zone coverage because the Niners 689 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 4: actually play zone at above a league average rate, and 690 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 4: Read has actually seen his metrics go up like yards 691 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 4: per route run, a dot verse three target percentage. All 692 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 4: of that kind of just starts to skew up when 693 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 4: he's playing against zone defense as opposed to man coverage. 694 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 4: He's also one of the two Packers wide receivers to 695 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 4: have a little bit success versus zone this year. 696 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 2: The other is Romeo Dobbs. 697 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 4: Now Romeo Dobbs completely just had the game of his 698 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 4: life last week against the Cowboys, and right now he's 699 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 4: around plus two fifty to plus two sixty. I'm not 700 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 4: saying I don't like Dobbs, but the main caveat with 701 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 4: Dobbs is that he mainly lines up outside. He rarely 702 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 4: comes into the slot part here. So for me, Jaden 703 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 4: Reid at plus two twenty would be my favorite packer 704 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 4: to bet in that divisional round game. 705 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: Did I see that you put Jordan Love in there 706 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: as well? 707 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: That was actually the first bet. 708 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 4: Right after the Monday night game. Nick and I were 709 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 4: sitting in the Action Network studios in office and we're 710 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 4: looking at it and we're already starting to look at 711 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 4: upcoming week odds and we see the forty nine ers 712 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 4: packers odds, and I looked at him. I'm like, dude, 713 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 4: Jordan Love is twelve to one right now, we should 714 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 4: be locking in this in and typically he's eight to nine. 715 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 4: He didn't even look at his projections or fair odds. 716 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 4: He just goes, Yep, that's stupid odds. We need to 717 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 4: lock that in right now. So pretty much I think 718 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 4: it was just a squad ride. Everybody in the office 719 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 4: pretty much locked it in at that point, so we're 720 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 4: all in it. On Jordan Love at twelve to one 721 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 4: to score a touchdown. 722 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 5: That's great. Well, I'm glad we got the input there. 723 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: On the subject of the Packers, we do have a 724 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: side that someone's betting this week, and that would be 725 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: Brandon Anderson. And where might you be going, sir in 726 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: Packers Niners? 727 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 7: Well, you know I got my forty nine Ers jersey on, 728 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 7: so you know how this goes. Give me the Green 729 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 7: Bay Packers plus ten, nine and a half if you 730 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 7: need it where it's at at most books, Jill. I 731 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 7: hope Jordan Love scored the touchdown. I hope Jayden Reid 732 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 7: score the touchdown. I hope don Tavian the Wicks gets 733 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 7: in there. Let's get touchdowns for everybody. This was my 734 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 7: upset pick of the week. This was my hot read 735 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 7: at plus ten. Try to get that key number if 736 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 7: you can. And look, I'll just say up front, there's 737 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 7: certainly a chance this just go terribly Joe Berry. The 738 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 7: defense's not good. That's not my cap here. The Niners 739 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 7: could just come out and drop forty or fifty. You 740 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 7: feel dumb. We move on, We get the next one 741 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 7: that's possible. I don't think that Cowboys game was a fluke, 742 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 7: and sorry Jille to bring that one up, but we 743 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 7: all watched that Cowboys took a lot of the blame 744 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 7: there for their defense. But this is not new for 745 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 7: the Packers. Week eighteen, the Packers played the Bears, and 746 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 7: that was effectively a game where the Bears were team. 747 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 7: I was on this podcast week after week backing the Bears. 748 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 7: They were red hot down the stretch, they were top 749 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 7: five team down the stretch, and statistically, the Packers demolished 750 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 7: the Bears. That was probably the most impressive Week eighteen 751 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 7: takeaway I had was the Packers offense. Week before Packers 752 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 7: played my Vikings. I watched the game closely. That was 753 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 7: basically a playoff game in Minnesota, and the Vikings defense 754 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 7: has been great all season and Jordan Love shredded them. 755 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 7: This Packers offense is not a one week thing that 756 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 7: was about the Cowboys, but it's about the Packers. To 757 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 7: Jordan Love, since Week nine has gone from second to 758 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 7: worst completion over expectation to second best in the NFL. 759 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 7: He's jumped to top three by EPA top three by 760 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 7: PFF grade. He has basically played MVP ball since Week nine. 761 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 7: During that span, Packers offense is number two in DVOA. 762 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 7: They're behind the Niners, but these are the top two 763 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 7: offenses in that span, top five run, top five pass. 764 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 7: They've run the ball well, and Jill you mentioned for 765 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 7: the forty nine ers their weakness another weakness, they're kind 766 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 7: of just average against the run. They can be run on. 767 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 7: Aaron Jones four straight games at least twenty carries at 768 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 7: least one hundred and ten yards. Green Bay is second 769 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,240 Speaker 7: and pass block win rate, so that's gonna be important 770 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 7: against Nick Bosa and Chase Young. But Jordan Love, we've 771 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,720 Speaker 7: seen that backfoot throw right, I think he can create 772 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 7: time and get the passes off. Niners corners not that great. 773 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 7: It's a system thing. But if you can get some 774 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 7: time all those green Bay weapons, I think they are beatable. 775 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 3: So I think the. 776 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,839 Speaker 7: Packers score here. The Niners defense has been way worse 777 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 7: at home this season. They're second in DVA on the road. 778 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 7: They're nineteenth at home, so I don't think it's probably 779 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 7: that's stark, but they have been much worse at home. 780 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 7: They're much worse early in the game Green Bay. I 781 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 7: think if they get the coin toss takes the ball, 782 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 7: just like they did against Dallas, they want to go 783 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 7: out get the lead, put the pressure on. You always 784 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 7: think the one seeds here. We always assume, Oh, they're 785 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 7: the juggernaut. They're rested, they're gonna roll, and the pressure 786 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 7: is all on that team. Right, Packers are playing with 787 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 7: house money. This is a super young team. They're even 788 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 7: supposed to be in the playoffs. They certainly weren't supposed 789 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,959 Speaker 7: to win last week. They got no pressure on them. 790 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 7: The longer this stays close, the more the pressure goes on. 791 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 7: And don't forget the last time we really saw the 792 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 7: Niners play an actual game of football. That was Christmas 793 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 7: Night against Baltimore and we saw the absolute meltdown. Brock 794 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 7: Purty MVP favorite goes to MVP nothing foreig interceptions. They 795 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 7: played Washington the next week, that's a scrimmage. They sat 796 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 7: week eighteen, they sat out last week. What happens if 797 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 7: you come out on the first quarter and Brock pretty 798 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 7: sales a pass or throws a pick early on, that's 799 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 7: like the last memory you have is this giant failure 800 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 7: to end the season that could have cost them the 801 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 7: one seed cost them the MVP chances. How does Perdy respond? 802 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 7: How does Shanahan in the play call and respond? I 803 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 7: think there's some real stakes there. Packers don't make a 804 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 7: lot of mistakes, even though they're young. They are the 805 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,479 Speaker 7: lowest in the NFL at sax and turnovers per game. 806 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 7: I think in game Matt Lafleur against Cal Shanahan, that's 807 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 7: an advantage I'll take. 808 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 3: In game. 809 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 7: We saw with McVeigh some of those similar mistakes about 810 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 7: clock management, about how the game script goes. And then 811 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 7: you know, I got my trends here. Trends are what 812 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,280 Speaker 7: brought me on this in the first place. Matt Laflur 813 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 7: twenty one and ten ats as an underdog sixty eight percent, 814 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 7: And then I mentioned the one seed and Brendan we talked. 815 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 3: About this last week. This was the look I had 816 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 3: last week. What did we say, you. 817 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 7: Back the home teams in the division round or sorry, 818 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 7: in the wildcard round, you fade the one seeds arrested 819 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 7: one seeds in the division round. Here, So here are 820 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:02,280 Speaker 7: the numbers Division round only last two decades, home favorites 821 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 7: forty two percent, ats just the one seeds thirty five 822 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,240 Speaker 7: percent ats, and if you look at one Seeds favored 823 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 7: by ten or less, those teams are ten twenty five 824 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 7: and one against the spread twenty nine percent cover rate 825 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 7: two decades worth. We have of data. Only twice in 826 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 7: two decades have both one Seeds covered this round and one. 827 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 7: Eight times neither one of them is covered. And that's 828 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 7: why I'm leaning here this weekend one Seeds are feeling 829 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 7: covered by over two points of games. You're basically paying 830 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 7: a two point tax you want to bet on the 831 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 7: forty nine ers. Here, we're getting two free points to 832 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 7: bet on the Packers. I've heard a lot of analysis 833 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 7: this week say, oh, well, this line wouldn't be only 834 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 7: ten points if it was before the Packers or before 835 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,839 Speaker 7: the Packers beat up on the Cowboys. I think that's 836 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 7: the wrong direction. I think the Packers have been so 837 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 7: good late in the year that this line is already 838 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 7: too long, and it's not giving enough respect to what 839 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 7: Green Bay has become late. It's putting too much analysis 840 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 7: on what they were early on. So a couple other trends. 841 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 7: Division round home teams on a one game losing streak, 842 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,319 Speaker 7: that's the Niners. They lost in week eighteen. Those teams 843 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 7: are three and fifteen against the spread three and fifteen 844 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 7: seventeen percent. And then Road Division teams that missed the 845 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 7: playoffs this round twenty seven and thirteen sixty eight percent. 846 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 7: And by the way, every one of those trends I 847 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 7: just listed, except the Matt Lafleur one. They go for 848 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 7: the Texans against the Ravens too. So that's not my 849 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 7: pick here. It's the Packers Saturday. If you can believe 850 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 7: it is National Cheese Lovers Day, give me some cheese. 851 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 7: Give me the Packers plus ten plus nine and a half. 852 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 7: I think they could win this thing if the Niners 853 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 7: let them hang around. 854 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 1: Jill Great, you guys smell that. I smell a cheese 855 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: for it in the North Dakota burrow right now. I 856 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: can smell it through my screen recording this podcast. Chee, 857 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: holy crap, all in on the Packers. Now, where's the 858 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 1: Bundo when you need them? With the cheesehead for Brandon? 859 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: For crying out loud, we should have passed that along. 860 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: He was on last week's episode. Dubundo left us. I 861 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: wish he's shipped that cheese head off to North Dakota 862 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: for Brandon. Well, so you like the Packers this week. 863 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: There is a look ahead for this week, and I 864 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: wonder where this is going. 865 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 7: Brandon, You know what, Luis, We gotta go with an escalator. 866 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 7: Here is Packers season here in North Dakota. Look, Green 867 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 7: Bay is actually the second closest geographic team other than 868 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 7: the Vikings here in Fargo. So I thought about just 869 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 7: driving around like a hardware store. I bet I could 870 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 7: found a cheesehead somewhere in town here. I might have 871 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 7: to do it if this look ahead hits here, I'm 872 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 7: taking the Passers Packers escalator all the way. So Packers 873 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 7: covered the ten nine and a half close late. Who 874 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 7: do you want Rock Purdy or Jordan Love? I want 875 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 7: Jordan Love. Brockbury's done a lot of good things, but 876 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 7: Jordan Love is the quarterback that looks the part. Right now, 877 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 7: the pressure all goes on. San Fran Niner's got a 878 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 7: rookie kicker that could matter. We come down to a 879 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 7: late game division round. Underdogs of seven to eleven points 880 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 7: are twelve twenty three. Straight up, you take those dogs. 881 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 7: You have a fifty two percent ROI on the money line, 882 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 7: fifty two percent. Matt Lafleur is seventeen and twelve straight 883 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 7: up as an underdog fifty percent ROI highest of every 884 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 7: coach that. 885 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 3: Coach this season. 886 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 7: So we're ready to take the escalator. We're gonna take 887 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 7: the money line Packers plus three sixty. That's implied twenty 888 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 7: two percent. I think it should be at least twenty 889 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 7: five thirty percent, maybe higher. What you gotta think ahead here. 890 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 7: You can't just take the money line. What happens if 891 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 7: the Packers who win, Okay, well we know what happens. 892 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,280 Speaker 7: They play either Detroit or Tampa. All right, we already 893 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 7: played green Bay and in Detroit. We saw it on Thanksgiving. 894 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 7: We all watched green Bay dominate it in Detroit. We 895 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 7: all saw that game. That is a team that could 896 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 7: absolutely go to Detroit and win if it's Green Bay Tampa. 897 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 3: I don't know. 898 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 7: I kind of think the Packers are favored in that game. 899 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 7: They're certainly gonna be not much of an underdog, and 900 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 7: I think a lot of people be on the Packers 901 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 7: in that game. So if they win this one, Dallas 902 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,839 Speaker 7: is already out, the one seed goes out out. Why 903 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 7: wouldn't they just win the next game too? Ten to 904 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 7: one green Bay Packers to win the NFC and get 905 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 7: to the super Bowl. 906 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,720 Speaker 3: Don't forget. Here's the quarterbacks left of the NFC. 907 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:17,280 Speaker 7: Brock Berdy, Baker, Mayfield, we got who am I forgetting? 908 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 7: Jared Goff and Jordan Love Right now, it is very 909 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 7: clear which quarterback you want out of those for how 910 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 7: often do you get the best quarterback, the most important 911 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 7: player on the field. Four teams left ten to one odds. 912 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 7: Give me the Packers ticket to make the super Bowl, 913 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 7: and I don't think they'll win if they get there, 914 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 7: but if they do, Packers are thirty to one to 915 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 7: win it all. You at least have to get that ticket. Also, 916 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 7: nothing else, You've got a thirty to one ticket on 917 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 7: the Super Bowl money line underdog. If nothing else, you 918 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 7: can hedge away. You can hedge play the other side. 919 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 7: Lock in your profits, skip the game entirely, watch the commercials, 920 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 7: and count your money. I'm taking the full Packers escalator. 921 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 7: If they pull us off, I pregnant. Have to go 922 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 7: buy the cheese head. Packers money line three sixty Packers 923 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 7: NFC at ten to one, Packers super Bowl thirty to one. 924 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 3: You know, nibbling on the way up. Just nibble the cheese. 925 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 3: But let's take Packers all the way. 926 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: Wow, Andy Moore, Niners, Jersey folks on the podcasts, those 927 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 1: those of you that are listening, all right, Jordan. 928 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 4: Love thirty three to one super Bowl MVP, another little 929 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 4: escalator added to it. 930 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 7: You know, I looked at that, But the super bowls 931 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:27,280 Speaker 7: already twenty eight to one. 932 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 2: To win the super Bowl, so right, yeah, yeah, I 933 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: looked at that. 934 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 7: If someone say, best an aeron Jones MVP, that's like 935 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 7: two hundred and sixty to one or something. If I'm 936 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 7: gonna do the the further escalator on MVP, I think 937 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 7: I'd rather take something like that. Jones is so good 938 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 7: for that team and so important he gets a game 939 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 7: like last week where he steals the three touchdowns and 940 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,320 Speaker 7: gets some yards late. I think i'd rather, if I'm escalating, 941 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 7: take something that's a real, real long. 942 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 3: Shot like that. 943 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 7: You know, obviously we know quarterbacks win MVP, so Love 944 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,760 Speaker 7: is the likely candidate there. But to me, the extra 945 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 7: you know, couple couple cents on the dollar there basically 946 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 7: is not quite the risk. I'd rather just do the 947 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 7: super Bowl ticket. But you know what, I can't be 948 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 7: angry if we're nibbling cheese let's nibble all the way. 949 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 7: Let's we take it like a defensive player or like 950 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 7: the Andres Carlton the kicker. How about that for Super 951 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 7: Bowl MVP, let's just go all in here kidding, that's 952 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:19,919 Speaker 7: not the real pick. 953 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. If we get Packers Lions in 954 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: the NFC title game, that is some good eating. 955 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 5: That is some good, cheesy eating. 956 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna wrap it up with that because 957 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: we went a little long, but that was that was 958 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: worth the time. But when you put it that way, 959 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: with the four quarterbacks remaining hard to argue without Jordan 960 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: Loves playing right now in that offense, nothing to lose 961 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: house money. Youngest team to make the playoffs in league history, 962 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 1: that is going to do it. 963 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 5: Here on the Action Network podcast. 964 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: For our NFL Divisional Round Best Bets episode presented by 965 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: our friends at bet MGM.
