1 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:09,959 Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. 2 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 2: What is up straight firefam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight 3 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 2: Fire for Friday, September twenty seventh. I would say, what 4 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 2: a great night in sports, but Cowboys Giants was awful. Now, 5 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: now the Gray Foxes by men's basketball team, that was 6 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: the jam folks. Since we added Richard Jefferson in the 7 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: transfer portal, we got a little crowd showing up in 8 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 2: some of these games. It's funny fox has win by 9 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 2: twenty five. We did face a guy who played point 10 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 2: guard at usc like three years ago, and he was awesome. 11 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 2: He's just too tough, like a point guard who's a 12 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: tank and just body contortions and he had probably thirty 13 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 2: but we just had too many weapons. You boy hit 14 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: a like four threes. It it's just fun. But next 15 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: week play the defending champs. I don't even know if 16 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: for favor they're really good, But honestly, like that was 17 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 2: more exciting than Cowboys Giants Cowboys twenty Giants fifteen. You 18 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: know what's more interesting than the actual game is that 19 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: I bet Cowboys four and four and a half both hit, 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, and I put up some props 21 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: on Instagram stories and one of them was first touchdown 22 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: Rico Dudell. Hello, I thought that the screen pass was 23 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: gonna get called back. I also had some overs on 24 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,919 Speaker 2: CD LAMB those hit thanks to the fifty five yarder. 25 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: It's weird though. The Cowboys to me, don't come away 26 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: as the story of the game. And you know Rob 27 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 2: g has a Giants take. I have a different Giants take. 28 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: It's weird. Like Daniel Jones has really limited the turnovers 29 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 2: this season, and it's the brand of football they're playing 30 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 2: is not pretty right. Jones will only turnover was a 31 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: hail Mary at the end that had no chance. But 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 2: it's like, hey, we want to be It's essentially to me, 33 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: Brian Dables looking at his team is like, we cannot 34 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: go toe to toe with people. We need to be 35 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: like Pittsburgh Steelers. I need Daniel Jones to turn into 36 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: Justin fields. Just make the right reads, make the easy passes, 37 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: scramble when necessary, Okay, don't turn the ball over. That's it. 38 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: Justin fields in Chicago, turnover machine. Justin fields at Pittsburgh 39 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: not so much now. They're not an explosive offense. The Giants, 40 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: outside of Malik neighbors. Neighbors said, it's staggering. Twelve for 41 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: one fifteen, he had fifteen targets. So Daniel Jones drops 42 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: back to pass forty times. Fifteen went to neighbors. Fourteen targets. 43 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: That is to one Dale Robinson. But it's all short stuff. 44 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 2: You know, they had a blown coverage on Neighbors early. 45 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 2: That was a big one. But other than that, they're 46 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: you know, basically, and we know this. We've known this 47 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 2: for a couple of years. Teams are sitting back in 48 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: the too high shell saying, we're not giving you ader touchdowns. 49 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: That's just not happening. We'll give you the underneath stuff 50 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: if you can take it and your quarterback can make 51 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: those passes come on down the field. Well, the Giants 52 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: moved the ball in between the twenties. Great, and then 53 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: they get to the red zone twice and they have 54 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: to settle for field goals. You can't win the game 55 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 2: when all you do is kick five field goals. You're 56 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: not winning that. Now, I know what you're saying, Jay Jay, 57 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: You just compared to the Steelers. The Steelers did win that. Yes, 58 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: the Steelers won one game when they kicked six field goals. 59 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: In the in the home opener. Was it the home open? No, 60 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: it was a road opener against Atlanta. Sure that can 61 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 2: work in a one off, but that was against an 62 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons team that's limited. Now, the Cowboys ain't great, 63 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: as we know, but the Cowboys are certainly better than 64 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 2: the Atlanta Falcons as a threat. Now I don't. I mean, 65 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 2: maybe the Falcons win more games this year because they're 66 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 2: in a weaker division with a cake schedule, but the 67 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: Cowboys are a better team. But this is rob this 68 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: is the thing I love most so all week. You know, oh, well, 69 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 2: the Giants game plans easy. You just have to run 70 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 2: on the Cowboys because they can't stop the run. I mean, 71 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: Derek Henry had a buck whatever and Lamar Jackson ran 72 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: wild Baltimore ran for two hundred and thirty yards and 73 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: three quarters. That's easy. That's the game plan. That's not 74 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: how football works. And this is why, as I said, 75 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: I think I said it on the pod early this week, 76 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: the zigzag theory in the NFL is a real thing. 77 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: One week a team will look like total garbage. The 78 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: next week, Oh they're good, right, Nobody is as good 79 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: or as bad as they were the week before the 80 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: Cowboys run defense. You want to hear how they did 81 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 2: against the Giants. New York had twenty four rush attempts 82 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: for twenty six yards. That's it, twenty six yards. Derek 83 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 2: Henry had more than that on like one carry last week, okay, 84 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: where he was stiff arming dudes to the ground. It 85 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: was And so Dables game plan to me was, hey, 86 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: keep it simple, kiss it baby, keep it simple, stupid, 87 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: and that can work in between the twenties and you 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: make your field goals. But Dallas breaks off. Dallas two touchdowns, 89 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 2: and when you score two touchdowns, and then you've got 90 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: like one of the best kickers in the league. Although 91 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: I will say I have Aubrey rob in fantasy and 92 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 2: I was stunned that he missed a field goal. It 93 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: was fifty one and he does seem automatic. But I 94 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: wasn't watching the telecast I was following. Was that his 95 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: first miss of the season, Yes, it was. Man, he's 96 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 2: a good kicker. So anyways, like Dallas played it safe, 97 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: the Giants played it safer. It was a crack game. 98 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. I look at both these teams. I 99 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 2: don't think either of them, Rob or playoff teams in 100 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 2: the NFC. 101 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know when you said last week and it 102 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 3: was a big promo, we coult it out and put 103 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: it on the internet on social media. Jason McIntyre says 104 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys not one of the top six teams 105 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 3: of the NFC. I thought that was, you know, one of 106 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: the hotter takes that we've seen in weeks, and then 107 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 3: we watch what happened on Thursday night and it's like, eh, 108 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 3: you know what, you may have been ahead of the 109 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 3: curve on that one, because they're just not They're not terrible. 110 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 3: I'll give them that. 111 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: They're two and two. 112 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 3: They're not the worst team I've seen. They are the 113 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: definition of as a kid say, they are mid. Everything 114 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: about the Dallas Cowboys is mid, all right. Dak Prescott 115 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 3: his counting stats look fine. Two of twenty seven, two 116 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 3: twenty one, two touchdowns, no picks. He said, Oh, you know, 117 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: the running game was averaging just in their four yards 118 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 3: to carry, so you know it must have been an 119 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 3: easy Dallas Cowboys win over the Giants, who have they 120 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 3: run roughshot over them for years now. But they had 121 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 3: eleven penalties. You know, they're three for ten on third down. 122 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 3: They only had the ball for twenty four minutes. Like 123 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 3: this game was so terrible to watch. And it's going 124 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 3: a little quick tangent for you here though. So you 125 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 3: mentioned the two high safety. Everyone saying, hey, the two 126 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 3: I safety goes ruining football. We're not getting the big 127 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 3: play like we used to, and it's it's hurting the 128 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 3: television product. I'll take you one step further. It's not 129 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 3: just that they took the two to two high safety 130 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: and it's making things so that it's dink and dunk 131 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 3: kind of offense. It's that they also have eliminated all 132 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 3: of the physicality that we got in the NFL back 133 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: when I was younger and you were younger, Like you 134 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 3: know the jacked up segments that we got on ESPN. 135 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 3: You cannot hit a guy high, you cannot hit a 136 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 3: guy low. You cannot touch the quarterback. You cannot grab 137 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,679 Speaker 3: him from behind and sit down. That's a hip drop tackle. 138 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 3: Can't grab him by the top of his shoulder pad, 139 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 3: that's a horse caller tackle. So they've eliminated the physicality 140 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 3: because they wanted to encourage more offensive football. The teams 141 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: have adjusted and now you're seeing scoring is way down, 142 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 3: so we don't got the smash mouth. We don't got 143 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: the high fly act. We're stuck in this dead zone 144 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 3: where nobody is scoring very well, fantasy numbers are way down, 145 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 3: and on top of that, we have to sit and 146 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 3: watch two teams, one of them who can't keep shooting 147 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: themselves in the foot, the Dallas Cowboys all the penalties 148 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 3: and generally uninspired play, and the New York Giants, who 149 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 3: mostly looked like they were playing not to get blown out. 150 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 3: Because I saw this stat before the game, Daniel Jones 151 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 3: entering Thursday night, had the worst primetime record among any 152 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 3: quarterback with ten plus starts since the seventies. He was 153 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 3: one and twelve, now one in thirteen. Eight of those 154 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 3: twelve losses were by double digits, four were by at 155 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: least twenty points. Our cousins get the rap for being 156 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: the bad prime time quarterback. Daniel Jones has lapped the 157 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: field when it comes to uninspiring prime time performance. Last 158 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 3: night he wasn't even bad. But he's now one and 159 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 3: thirteen TD interception ratio on prime time, twelve touchdowns, nineteen picks. 160 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 3: It looked to me like Brian Dayball was saying, the 161 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 3: last time we played these guys, they beat us by 162 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: thirty five points. We are not gonna have that happen again. 163 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: We're gonna take the points when we get them. Even 164 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 3: if we're down at the three yard line. We're gonna 165 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 3: kick the field goal, safe and steady. We're gonna stay 166 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 3: within striking distance. If we can win the game, great, 167 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: If not, at least we'll cover the spread because it 168 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 3: definitely feels to me like Brian Dayball and the rest 169 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 3: of the New York Giants organization understand that Daniel Jones 170 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 3: is not the guy for them moving forward. Yeah, no noise, 171 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 3: and if they can showcase moleakue neighbors, which is what 172 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 3: they've been doing a whole hak of a lot of 173 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: the first month of the season. Currently on pace to 174 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 3: set the record for the most targets in NFL history 175 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 3: by a wide margin, and he's a rookie. They're setting 176 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: the stage for we're gonna limp to a four and 177 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 3: thirteen finish. We're gonna pick in the top ten, probably 178 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 3: top five. We're gonna get our quarterback, and hey, you 179 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 3: get to throw to the most prolific rookie wide receiver 180 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 3: in NFL history. 181 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 182 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: the nation.

They might not 186 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 2: win to so Seattle next week. Then the Bengals the 187 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: Giants will be underdogs in both those games. Then the 188 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: Eagles and the Steelers. I think they're underdogs in both. 189 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 2: So at that point they could be one in six 190 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: more than seven. I mean, it does ease up a 191 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 2: little bit. Commanders Panthers, but you're you're right, you're probably 192 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: onto something on Thursday night football. So obviously we had 193 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: Chiefs Ravens to open it, which was fine. Week two 194 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: was was that the Jets No no, Yeah, it was 195 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 2: no Jets Patriots, and then Miami. 196 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: No I think we I think I think it was 197 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,119 Speaker 3: Miami Buffalo, and then Jets. 198 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: Miami Buffalo sucked. Jets Patriots was terrible. And then this 199 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: game was borderline unwatchable. Next week, Get excited America Tampa 200 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 2: Bay at Atlanta. Baker Mayfield, Kirk Cousins, Like, you're right, 201 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 2: it's tough with these Thursday games to get excited. They 202 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 2: felt kind of sloppy. I don't know, It's just I'm 203 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: not impressed with with Dallas at all. Obviously the Giant stink, 204 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: but I am curious. Rob uh rinked for me the 205 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: best quarterbacks in the NFC East just based on this season, 206 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: not history, not last year, and not five years. Just 207 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 2: what you've seen through three. 208 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 3: Games nfcas NFC East from what just this season? Yep, 209 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 3: Dak Prescott, jayde and Daniels, Jalen Hurts, Wow, Daniel Jones. 210 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: That okay, Dak? Huh yeah, I thought you some people, 211 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 2: I think we go. Jayden Daniels has been the best 212 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 2: quarterback this season. I don't think many would, but I 213 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: think some people would credibly argue that Jillen Hurts has 214 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: been a turnover machine. Unfortunately, I just don't know that. 215 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: Let me call up the Dak numbers real quick, because 216 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: I didn't think Dak had been particularly good. He wasn't 217 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: great against the Browns. Dak Prescott through three games has 218 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 2: four touchdowns, two picks, uh sixty percent completions, which would 219 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 2: be a career low. His QBR, if that's worth anything, 220 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: is a career low. His quarterback rating is a career low, 221 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 2: so he's not off to a great start. It's weird 222 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 2: the division. 223 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 3: Well, those numbers are gonna go up because they haven't 224 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 3: updated from this last night, so. 225 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: That's right, it's only for the first three. Yeah, yeah, 226 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: it's just it's a little difficult for me to say 227 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 2: he's been playing great. I mean, the guy just got 228 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 2: sixty million per year. You know, it's it's tough for 229 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 2: me to like, I'm happy for him, but like, what's 230 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: the quote, it's tough to get out of bed when 231 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: you're wearing satin pj's or something like that. Mike silk sheets, 232 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: silk sheets, right, right, right. You know, Dak's got all 233 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: his money and he's going out there and it's like, Okay, 234 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 2: the giant stink is boring. Ced Limb yelled at me. 235 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: I got a fource, feed him the ball. They don't 236 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: have a lot of dudes like Jake Ferguson. By the way, 237 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: Fantasy what a bum he's been speaking of, Rob. What 238 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: the hell's going on with fantasy football tight ends this year? 239 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 2: Nobody's anything. I saw a stat that there's like five 240 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: kickers have outscored every tight end in fantasy I mean, 241 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 2: other than the opener for likely Trey McBride's head of flashes, 242 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 2: but he's now got concussed. It's just a weird, weird 243 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: year so far. 244 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 3: It's terrible. And I listen I regularly just listened to 245 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: Matthew Berry's podcast for end of the show. He has 246 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 3: the Fantasy podcast for NBC Sports, and I was listening 247 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 3: to one of the recent episodes. They're talking about the 248 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: tight end position and they're saying, hey, you know, if 249 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 3: you can get Tyler kank Lamb, if you can get 250 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 3: Hunter Henry, you know their their low end, mid range 251 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 3: tight end to you know, you're hoping for a touchdown. 252 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 3: And then one of the guys says, well, at this point, 253 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 3: isn't that every tight end of the league. You just hey, 254 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 3: if one of the guys gets a touchdown, like that 255 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 3: saves the day, cause you mentioned it. Like Sam Laporta 256 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 3: was the consensus top guy. I think he's averaging five 257 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: points a game in fantasy. Travis Kelcey has eighty nine 258 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 3: yards through three games. You know, Mark Andrews basically got 259 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 3: benched in Week three for Isaiah Likely. I think he 260 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: only played thirty percent of the snaps. You know, you 261 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 3: go down the trade. Mcbridey mentioned the concussion, you go 262 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: down the list and all the guys you might have 263 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: been counting on. Dalton King Kate had his first touchdown 264 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: you know, this past week, and he was the fourth 265 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 3: option on that play. It was Josh Allen Scramble Scrims touchdown. Yeah. So, 266 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: and it goes back to my previous point. It's like, 267 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 3: the reason why NFL football is so popular is Number one, 268 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: I believe fantasy because it's something that everybody does. Number Two, 269 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 3: it's betting, gambling, and it's it's it's the it's the 270 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 3: one sport because it's one game a week usually you know, 271 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: two or three at the most that you're able to 272 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: really hunker down and get an edge. And there's an 273 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 3: entertainment factor. If the fantasy numbers are down, that's like 274 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 3: a half of your audience where it's like, how why 275 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 3: am I going to watch? If if this finals? My 276 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 3: tight ends getting me four points? 277 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 2: How about the how about the I mean survivors small 278 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 2: potatoes gambling? But I don't know anyone's so alive in fantasy? 279 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: Oh no, I do know one guy who texted me 280 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 2: a buddy and he's like, hey, who's your lock this week? 281 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: I'm still there's six six people left in fantasy. It's 282 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: week four. I think he's only like one hundred and 283 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: twenty five people, but six are left, and I was like, oh, well, 284 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: chalk go with the Niner. Sounds like Kittle's coming back, 285 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 2: you know. 286 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 3: But when that happened, Like, let's say in that scenario, 287 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: let's say that your your buddy's in the one hundred 288 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: and twenty high people and everyone's eliminated by week seven? 289 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: Is the guy who's last does he get paid out? 290 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 3: If it's only made it's a week seven. I have 291 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 3: no clue or is there like a minimum threshold you 292 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 3: have to get before it any can cash in? I 293 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 3: don't know. 294 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: That just seems like it's just a point. And I 295 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: didn't even do the buyback because I was so upset, 296 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 2: Like how could I whiff so badly? The first two? 297 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: Are you? 298 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 2: First two weeks I was out. I had two entries, 299 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 2: both done. I'm like, damn, that stings. But you guys know, 300 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: I had a good week last week in NFL gambling 301 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: five to zero in the contest. Can I run it back? 302 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: So let's do bets for week four in the NFL. 303 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 304 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio 305 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to 306 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: listen live. The only thing better than sitting on your 307 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: couch watching the games is making money while you do it. 308 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: Here's your best bet. 309 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 2: All right, let's start in college football, where the big 310 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: game of the weekend is Georgia at Alabama. It's weird. 311 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 2: This game does not have a ton of juice. Obviously, 312 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 2: it's two top five teams, but a I think it's 313 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: so early in the season that people are struggling to 314 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 2: kind of wrap their head around. Oh my gosh. Usually 315 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 2: these two meet in like the SEC championship game, and 316 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: they very well might. I don't have anything on this 317 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: game as of right now. I probably will go Georgia 318 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: closer to game time. I'm sorry, I just need to 319 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: see it. From Milroe, the quarterback of Alabama. I still 320 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: have a sour taste in my mouth from him early 321 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: last year. But the guy got bench twice. Okay, I 322 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 2: think he got bench against Texas in some other game. 323 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 324 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: I know he's a good player and he's a pro prospect. 325 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: And I saw an article. I haven't fully read it. 326 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: It's open on my tab, but a guy who writes 327 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 2: for the Athletic Dame Brugler. Can Jalen Milroe be the 328 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 2: next Jalen Hurts. I'm like, all right, I haven't flagged, 329 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: I haven't read it yet, but I'm gonna ride with Georgia. 330 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: I think a little bit of an overreaction to the 331 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: Georgia Kentucky game and people are kind of like, oh, 332 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 2: Georgia doesn't look great. I will agree, Carson Beck has 333 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: not looked tremendous. It should be a good game. I 334 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 2: don't have anything lined up Saturday, so I will be 335 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: locked in on that. I do have a bunch of bets. 336 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: I'm leary to give them to you. Last week was 337 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 2: good four and two. I just there's some real dogs 338 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 2: with fleas here that I don't think you're gonna want 339 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 2: to get involved with. I go out with Washington in 340 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: State plus six and a half. They are against Boise. 341 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 2: I had Texas Tech monus three and a half, Texas 342 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: A and M minus six, Stanford plus twenty one and 343 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: a half. Yes, that's real. Against Clemson, that's a tough one. 344 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: I am riding with Dion Sanders and company Colorado plus 345 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 2: fourteen against Central Florida Oklahoma State plus five And that's 346 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: all for now. Any additions I will put on the 347 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 2: Instagram stories over the weekend. And now to the NFL. Listen, 348 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 2: I had a five and oh week last week in 349 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 2: the contest, bumping my record to nine five and one 350 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 2: first five and oh other season. Very excited. I'm in 351 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 2: like the top four hundred out of five thousand, and listen, 352 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: you guys know that I like to be completely honest. 353 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 2: Every single night this week, I've woke up and I've 354 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 2: been like, can Tampa Bay really pull this off? Do 355 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 2: I need to go INDI? Should I not get in 356 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 2: front of Pittsburgh I'm doing every single night it's one 357 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: or more of these games. It's in my head. I'm 358 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 2: really nervous now. Usually, and I've told you guys this before. 359 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 2: My theory has always been trust your first instinct. Don't 360 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 2: be scared off of a team by by sharp perceived 361 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 2: sharp money and all this nonsense. It does happen, Okay, 362 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 2: I'm doing my best to not let it happen this week. 363 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: So the first bet I made was the Chicago Bears 364 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 2: minus two. The second bet I made and this is 365 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 2: going back to like Monday as soon as I looked 366 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: at the Joe Alt situation, the slater, the bosa, I 367 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: hadn't even announced Irwin, James and Herbert, and I said, 368 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: I got to hit the Chiefs minus seven. So I 369 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: hit the Chiefs minus seven. A couple totals over forty 370 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 2: six for Seattle Detroit. That's a great game. I don't 371 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 2: have anything on that game. It's weird. I want to 372 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 2: go Detroit. But if you remember last ye's game, was 373 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 2: I think with last year or two years ago, just 374 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: a great shootout. Keep an eye on Seattle. Kenneth walker Back, 375 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know that I trust the Lions, 376 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: And sorry for the aside. If you go back to 377 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 2: yesterday's pod and you could listen to Adam Churnoff talk 378 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 2: about teams that are overvalued, undervalued, blah blah blah, there's 379 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: a weird thing happening where Lions and Texans, two of 380 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 2: the hottest offseason teams. Everybody loved them after last year. 381 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 2: Their lines seemed to be inflated a tad this year 382 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 2: and as a result, they're not covering now. The Lions 383 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: did get lucky to cover against the Rams, so they're 384 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 2: two and one against the spread. The Texans depending they 385 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: haven't covered a game yet. Okay, Texans lines are inflated, 386 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 2: so this Detroit Seattle. I don't know about a side, 387 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 2: but I do like the over forty six. I went 388 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 2: under thirty seven on Tennessee Miami. I went blind. I 389 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 2: don't even know if it's Tyler Huntley. I went under 390 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 2: thirty eight on Broncos Jets. This is my I'm of 391 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 2: the belief that the Jets will totally shut down bo 392 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: Nicks here. The only problem is Nat Hackett could go 393 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: on a big revenge game against the Broncos and the 394 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: Jets hang thirty and then can is Denver gonna be 395 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 2: held under eight. I took the Bengals minus four against 396 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,239 Speaker 2: the Panthers. I'm certain that the Bengals will be one 397 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 2: of the five that I submit for the contest. Actually, 398 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: is it four and a half in the contest? Uh, yeah, 399 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 2: it's four and a half. Not great, but four and 400 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 2: a half to me is a tell that they are 401 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: definitely the side. Now, Carolina has some big time injuries. 402 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: I just I think Cincinnati wins with margin here. I 403 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: think the defense cannot be as bad as it was 404 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: last week. Could not stop a nose. But remember they 405 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 2: were good against the Chiefs. 406 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: We're solid. 407 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 2: I think they show up here at the offenses. It 408 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 2: has a lot of potential now that t Higgins is back. 409 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 2: How's this for a teaser? Chiefs to two and a half, 410 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: Buccaneers up to eight and a half. Two team teaser 411 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: Tampa and Casey Casey under a field. Come on, listen, 412 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 2: Casey's boring a major injury. They're not losing to. I 413 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 2: think it's gonna be Taylor Heineke, maybe Eastern Stick. I 414 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 2: don't know. I can't imagine with Justin Herbert getting a 415 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 2: bye next week that they would force him back out 416 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: on the field. That would be foolish. If Justin Herbert 417 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 2: gets hurt and he's out six weeks, the season's over. 418 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 2: There will be no playoffs for the Chargers. If you 419 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 2: can just say, you know what, let's power down this week. 420 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 2: Let's get you two weeks of rest with the bye 421 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 2: next week, Justin we'll come back with a vengeance. I 422 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 2: think that ultimately they'll do that. I did get the 423 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 2: Jags plus seven earlier this week. Now, I'm sure you 424 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 2: guys have seen the reports. Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Joe Mixon, 425 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 2: a lot of injuries for the Texans. Nobody likes the Jaguars. 426 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 2: I think I'll probably end up scooping the Jags in 427 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 2: the contest, but I did bet them getting seven. I'm 428 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: on the Falcons minus two. 429 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. 430 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 2: Falcons Saints feels like kind of a dumb bet to me. Right, 431 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: they seem very much alike. Don't think you can trust 432 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: either team. But you look at the Saints' injury report, 433 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 2: and for me, it's a better than Atlanta. Now, I 434 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 2: know Atlanta's kind of dinged up in the trenches, but 435 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 2: New Orleans is dinged up everywhere, I mean Camara. It 436 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 2: does not look good for the Saints, and as such, 437 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 2: I'm on Atlanta. I don't know if I'll submit them 438 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 2: in the contest. I went Tampa Bay money line and 439 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 2: I went Tampa Bay plus two. There is some concern 440 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 2: that there's Hurricane Helen Helene, whichever Helen Helene. 441 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 3: Sorry. 442 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 2: There is some concern that this could be sloppy and 443 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 2: gross field, and maybe there's some lingering rain. I don't 444 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 2: know how bad it's going to be, but I'm on 445 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 2: the Bucks getting points and money line, and I almost 446 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: certainly will have Tampa in the contest. I don't think 447 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 2: they're great by any stretch, but if you're sensing a 448 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 2: theme for those of you writing this down or listening 449 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: while walking the dog and jotting in your note section, 450 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: I like teams coming off a loss facing a team 451 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: that just covered. And I didn't use this all week. 452 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: I texted it to some of my buddies who we 453 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 2: talk about gambling all week. So last week, teams that 454 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 2: were coming off of a loss, okay, facing teams that 455 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 2: were coming off of a win. If you bet the 456 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 2: team that did not cover the week prior this past week, 457 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 2: they went seven and two. The only two that did 458 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 2: not were Houston. Remember I loved Houston and the Titans, 459 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 2: which they can never win a game. So Denver covered 460 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: coming off a loss. The New York Giants did the Eagles. 461 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: That was one of the things that swayed me late 462 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 2: in the contest that helped the five and zero. Now 463 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 2: there's a lot of those this week, coming off of 464 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 2: a loss versus sorry, a cover versus coming off a 465 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 2: non cover. And if you look, it's Dallas did not cover. 466 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 2: The New York Giants did. Take a look at Thursday 467 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 2: Night Football's result, Chicago. Bears did not cover last week, 468 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: the Rams did Bears. Probably my biggest bet of the week, 469 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: Tampa did not cover. Philly did Philly against the Saints. 470 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 2: So Bears Tampa Chargers. That's what I just I can't 471 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 2: rock with them, not with the Herbert situation. Sorry. Bengals Panthers, 472 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 2: and then Arizona Washington, And I'm also on Arizona against Washington, 473 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 2: so I know that's it seems very simplistic, but even 474 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 2: the matchups all favorite the teams I like. And if 475 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 2: you look closely, the Bengals are getting the hook at four, 476 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: a very big tell in my eyes that Cincinnati's the side. 477 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 2: Then you take a look at Arizona, they're stuck on 478 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: three and a half, another tell they're the side. Tampa 479 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: under three and headed toward pick and the Bears the Bears. 480 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 2: A lot of people see bears by like the Bears 481 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 2: are favorite against the Rams. They're perplexed. I said it 482 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 2: to Coward on Monday. He was like, I bet the 483 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 2: Rams are favored. I was like, no, the Bears are, 484 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 2: and I bet them. He's like, what it's surprising Rams 485 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: beat the Niners. Now that if you go back, that 486 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 2: was super lucky guys. Honestly, they're down ten with seven 487 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 2: minutes left. Everybody needs luck every now and then. But 488 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: that was a total luck box victory for the Rams, 489 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 2: and they face a Bear seam that nobody believes in. 490 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 2: Bears have looked awful. You lose to the Colts Sunday 491 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 2: Night football. They get sacked eight times against the Texans. 492 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: By the way, Texan Bears covered that game. Quietly, I'm 493 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 2: just saying, like, just don't take everything at face value. 494 00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 2: Take a minute look under the hood, poke around. A 495 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: lot of these games are very enticing to me this weekend. 496 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 2: And yeah, I dance card is full of interesting teams. 497 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: And if you will look, the Bears are favored, Tampa's 498 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 2: a dog, Bengals are favored, Cardinals are favored. I know, listen, 499 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: not the sexiest group of teams. Other ones I'm considering 500 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: in the contest are the Jags. I just don't know 501 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 2: if I could pull the trigger. They're only six in 502 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 2: the contest. Remember I bet them at seven Atlanta. I'm 503 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: just I don't really know. I don't know what to 504 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 2: do with Jets Broncos. Both teams did cover last week. 505 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,479 Speaker 2: I'm of the belief the Jets are the side here 506 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 2: and they get it done, and I bet them. I 507 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 2: just don't. The contest is a different animal. Like you 508 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 2: win money, wonderful. You want to go after three million 509 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: dollars or whatever the payout is in this Vegas contest, well, 510 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: you can't screw around. You need you need to really 511 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 2: not play it safe. But you need to take some 512 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 2: of the uglier teams because guess what. Ain't nobody touching 513 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: those and the lines are screwy and those are the 514 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 2: ones that cover. So listen, there's zero chance I pull 515 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 2: off another five and oh, but man, wouldn't you pull 516 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 2: off a five and oh? And have a monster weekend? 517 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 2: It's a friggin great feeling, all right, everybody. That's it 518 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 2: for straight Fire this week. We are back on Monday. 519 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 2: Hopefully it's a productive weekend for you and certainly myself.
