Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Betting Pros. It's down to place
Speaker 1: your bets. This meet Joey P, joe P z Apia
Speaker 1: and this is BP NFL. It's time to look to
Speaker 1: the rest of the games for Week thirteen in the NFL.
Speaker 1: The Thanksgiving games are in the books, as is Black Friday.
Speaker 1: And of course now we've got to look to the Sunday,
Speaker 1: Sunday Night and Monday games. And Sunday Night might have
Speaker 1: some snow apparently, so that's exciting. I know the forty
Speaker 1: nine ers love to play in the snow. I bet,
Speaker 1: but to help me break down the games with the
Speaker 1: best bets of the week, as Andrew Erickson the Undertaker
Speaker 1: and Terrell Furman Junior, gentlemen, I hope you had a
Speaker 1: wonderful Thanksgiving. It's time to get back to work, and
Speaker 1: don't forget everybody. If you're gonna get back to work,
Speaker 1: make sure you download the Betting Pros app and sink
Speaker 1: your sportsbooks for free. Don't forget you also get the
Speaker 1: three free days of Premium at the top there so
Speaker 1: you can see the best tools in the business to
Speaker 1: help you win all that cash. Let's begin here where
Speaker 1: we always like to Tomlin as an underdog. Mike Tomlin as
Speaker 1: an underdog is Trell Furman's favorite thing. I think in
Speaker 1: the world, what do you love more? Let's see a
Speaker 1: good Thanksgiving side, like a really good maca cheese, a
Speaker 1: really good stuffing, or a Mike Tomlin underdog. What's your
Speaker 1: favorite thing? Draw This is easy.
Speaker 2: It's the Mike Tomlin underdog because that's gonna cash and
Speaker 2: then I can go get me with that money some side,
Speaker 2: so I have the best of both worlds. Like it's
Speaker 2: really really easy there, come on now. I mean, shout
Speaker 2: out to Jamis for being so lucky to get the
Speaker 2: positive spot of playing Mike Tomlin as a favorite, because
Speaker 2: that was the only chance that the Browns had and
Speaker 2: guess what, they got it done. And now we come
Speaker 2: back and get them as a dog against this Bengals
Speaker 2: team that I mean, they're looking at that seventh loss
Speaker 2: and they're like, guys, I know we said we're gonna
Speaker 2: make it still, but we're running out of real estate here.
Speaker 2: And I think that for a lot of teams, this
Speaker 2: is either a spot where they can kind of get up.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: We remember Aaron Rodgers and the R. E. Lax and
Speaker 2: they went and got But what happens more often than not,
Speaker 2: these teams just lay down and it's just over the seasons.
Speaker 2: It's a bad season. Coaches get fired, people get blamed,
Speaker 2: and that's what I think is going to be at
Speaker 2: the end of this Bengals season. Like I think that
Speaker 2: it's going to be a time to see of the season.
Speaker 2: I don't think that the second f the season is
Speaker 2: going to go well with them. They caught those Steelers
Speaker 2: in a horrible spot where CJ. Watt's coming off a
Speaker 2: bad game. I think he's going to get active around
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. And how do you beat Joe Burrow by
Speaker 2: getting pressures to him constantly keeping him on his back,
Speaker 2: not letting them get comfortable in the pocket. I think
Speaker 2: the Steelers have the defense that is made where they
Speaker 2: can give this Bengals offense some real, real problems here.
Speaker 2: So I think the Steelers ugly up this game. Plus
Speaker 2: three is way too many.
Speaker 1: Ericson When we were talking about the look ahead, we
Speaker 1: were like, is this wrong? Are we seeing this correctly?
Speaker 1: It feels like the Steelers should be favored. They've got
Speaker 1: the extra rest, you know. The flukiness of the weather
Speaker 1: certainly has a big impact. Now, we did see a
Speaker 1: lot more justin fields too. Maybe that was because of
Speaker 1: the weather, but he also to look at some of
Speaker 1: the inefficiencies in the red zone that Russell Wilson's had
Speaker 1: some issues with since taking over, and I think that's
Speaker 1: starting to rear its ugly head. That being said, it
Speaker 1: does feel like the Steelers side of this game is
Speaker 1: the right side to be on.
Speaker 3: And you agree, Yeah, I want the Steelers with the points.
Speaker 3: It's funny, you know, Mike Tomlin. He wakes up, He's like, yes,
Speaker 3: we're road underdogs. We can win this game. Like that's
Speaker 3: how he'sactly. He's feeling like.
Speaker 2: To him, their favorites like whenever they're at all to him,
Speaker 2: just hey, whenever you see Steelers plus anything, just think
Speaker 2: of it as, oh, they're favorite. I need I should
Speaker 2: actually I should actually take display because this is the
Speaker 2: spy you want to give him in. This is amazing ericson,
Speaker 2: it's so fun.
Speaker 1: This is a holiday.
Speaker 3: Yes, it is a very enjoyable week of holiday goodness.
Speaker 3: And yeah, back in Mike Tomlin as a road underdog. Look,
Speaker 3: the Bengals have been terrible at home this year. They
Speaker 3: haven't covered the spread and for their last five home games,
Speaker 3: one and four straight up at home this year. So
Speaker 3: I don't think there's really any home field advantage for
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals. I think that's kind of where you're
Speaker 3: seeing this three point line come from. Oh, well, the
Speaker 3: Bank's playing at home. Well, they're not good at home.
Speaker 3: They're not good overall. They still don't have a defense.
Speaker 3: And I think that this is just the market holding
Speaker 3: on to the preseason narratives and the Bengals offense and
Speaker 3: oh well, little try and around they run the table
Speaker 3: kind of like Furman said, It's like and we did
Speaker 3: the same thing. The market was doing the same thing
Speaker 3: with the Jets.
Speaker 1: Oh they'll figure it out, and.
Speaker 3: They were favored week after week after week, and then
Speaker 3: they just kept losing games every single time. And yes,
Speaker 3: I don't think that the Bengals are as much of
Speaker 3: dysfunction as the Jets, but I mean they're one of
Speaker 3: the other teams at the Patriots beat this year, right,
Speaker 3: Like that's how you know your dysfunctional team when you
Speaker 3: lose to Joe and I and our Patriots. So yeah,
Speaker 3: give me the Steelers plus three again. I got plenty
Speaker 3: of Bengals future. So if I'm wrong. I'll be happy
Speaker 3: with it, but right now I'm gonna hedge my bets
Speaker 3: and take this still.
Speaker 2: To lead the league in passing such analysis actually still
Speaker 2: still in play, believe it or not. For how bad
Speaker 2: this team is like.
Speaker 1: That, well, I mean, look, Joe Burrow has been okay,
Speaker 1: it's not his fault. I can't blame Joe Burrow. Speaking
Speaker 1: of our Patriots, let's get to that game next Patriots
Speaker 1: and Colts. This one's gonna be in New England, and
Speaker 1: because of the shortened holiday week, Best Bets today is
Speaker 1: also not just games like we usually do, the three
Speaker 1: of us, but also some props to and Torell. You've
Speaker 1: got a prop on Drake May which is a prop
Speaker 1: that we've been in on a lot, and it's the
Speaker 1: rushing yard shoutal and it's twenty six and a half
Speaker 1: this week and it's the over Why do you think
Speaker 1: it's gonna go over this weekend?
Speaker 2: Because he has the matchup. I think he has a
Speaker 2: really good matchup going up against the Indianapolis Colts. First
Speaker 2: of all, I think this is going to be a
Speaker 2: get up game for the Patriots overall, because guess what, Oh,
Speaker 2: it's back it's back the biting kneecaps trend of teams
Speaker 2: playing the Lions and they're not covering the next week.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is a test. This is
Speaker 2: a trend that has the test of time thus far.
Speaker 2: And nonetheless I like it here. I like it the
Speaker 2: fact that how do they win? So if I think
Speaker 2: that the Patriots are in this game, it's just that
Speaker 2: Drake May is just going to be a baller and
Speaker 2: I think that he actually shows a lot of promise.
Speaker 2: Like I think him and bow Knicks actually are very
Speaker 2: comparable in how they play on the season. Is just
Speaker 2: the fact that bo Nicks has Sean Payton and Drake
Speaker 2: May doesn't.
Speaker 1: And that's really it.
Speaker 2: Like if Sean Payton had Drake May, I think Drake
Speaker 2: May we look like bow Knicks right now. And so
Speaker 2: what do rookie quarterback do when they're feeling the pressure,
Speaker 2: they're feeling everything coming down on them on their team
Speaker 2: and everything they do and their mobile They run, run,
Speaker 2: run run. Look at what the Colts have done against
Speaker 2: running quarterbacks this season, and they actually kind of struggle.
Speaker 2: They've given up this prop to Josh Allen, They've given
Speaker 2: they almost gave it up to Snoop Huntly, believe it
Speaker 2: or not, gave it up to Justin Fields, and they
Speaker 2: gave it up to Leak Willis, So they're not good
Speaker 2: against the rushing quarterback. They gave up two touchdowns to
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray and they also gave up a touchdown to
Speaker 2: Josh Allen. I think that a touchdown is in play.
Speaker 2: I think you take the rushing yards and you ladder
Speaker 2: them up because he's gonna be running for his life
Speaker 2: and whenever he can't make a decision with the football,
Speaker 2: he's just gonna take off. And I think that's what
Speaker 2: he's gonna do, and that's what's gonna win them the
Speaker 2: game because he continues to keep drives going. So I'm
Speaker 2: really all in on the Patriots today, but I think
Speaker 2: it's because of Jake May So. I took Drake may props.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the game itself. The over
Speaker 1: under for this game is forty two and a half undertaker,
Speaker 1: where do you want to live on this one?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to this game, so I I'm not
Speaker 3: gonna be sitting in the stands hoping that nobody scores.
Speaker 3: That's the worst way I could potentially have an enjoyable
Speaker 3: Sunday afternoon. So I'm taking the over in this game
Speaker 3: because that's one thing that I have seen with this
Speaker 3: Patriots team that I don't think that the books have
Speaker 3: still caught up on. This Patriots defense is so bad
Speaker 3: it is horrible. Patriots at home this year four and
Speaker 3: one towards the over. Drake May his three home starts,
Speaker 3: three and zero towards the over. They have one good
Speaker 3: player on defense. His name is Chritickanzalez. Christian Barmer also
Speaker 3: a good player, but he's still coming back from his
Speaker 3: blood caught injury, so I don't think he's had one
Speaker 3: hundred percent. Cans also go on Michael Pittman, and then
Speaker 3: it's going to be a freestyle between Alec peers Ath
Speaker 3: and I Mitchell making big plays down the field. Jonathan Taylor,
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson, Joe, how many times how many Cam Newton
Speaker 3: highlights you need to rewatch in our heads to know
Speaker 3: that this Patriots defense traditionally has never been able to
Speaker 3: stop mobile quarterbacks. The last one of the last Patriots
Speaker 3: games I went to, one of the last Patriots games
Speaker 3: I went to, was because again they also play a
Speaker 3: lot of man coverage, so that really feeds into mobile
Speaker 3: quarterbacks getting loose against this defense. One of the games
Speaker 3: I went to a couple of years ago was Monday
Speaker 3: night game against the Bears justin Fields with the Star
Speaker 3: Patriots are a massive home.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that one destroyed.
Speaker 2: Cam Newton game.
Speaker 3: I mean that game. I think was that that game too?
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Fields one is well, maybe you shouldn't
Speaker 1: go this weekend. Like I'm just saying maybe. And it's
Speaker 1: another rushing quarterback with Anthony Richardson. Why do you go
Speaker 1: to these games with quarter don't you play the games
Speaker 1: the goats.
Speaker 3: I don't care if they win. I want them to lose,
Speaker 3: but I want to have fun. We want them to
Speaker 3: watch the game. Yeah, and again let's will cover the spread,
Speaker 3: like Chrell said, because of the honoluluflu. So yeah, we'll
Speaker 3: be happy at the end of the day. It'll be
Speaker 3: a fun game if they end up losing. So but
Speaker 3: for me, I'm gonna go with the over. What is
Speaker 3: it at forty forty two and a half? Yeah? Over easy.
Speaker 1: There you go. Another fun thing is our discord betting

Speaker 1: so this is the time to get in on that.
Speaker 1: So again, Betting pros dot Com slash NFL contest to
Speaker 1: make your picks count, Terrell, let's make another pick count. Here.
Speaker 1: The Chargers are going against one of your favorite teams,
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. What could go wrong? And the Atlanta
Speaker 1: Falcons are at home coming off of buye and it
Speaker 1: looks like the Chargers are not going to have JK.
Speaker 1: Dobbins doing with a knee issue. So I don't know
Speaker 1: if that changes the dynamic of your thought process or
Speaker 1: you just Chargers all day no matter what against the Falcons.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it actually did change the dynamic of our thought process. Nonetheless,
Speaker 2: I don't think the Falcons are team. I am very
Speaker 2: I think that the fall is about to come. I
Speaker 2: think that the Bucks are going to find themselves somehow,
Speaker 2: some way leading the division at the end of the year.
Speaker 2: And unfortunately, the Chargers' offense just gives me so much
Speaker 2: cost concern because they have so many people that just
Speaker 2: can't catch the ball. And Quentin Johnson, you just I
Speaker 2: understand your NFL talent and you are one of the
Speaker 2: top football players in the world. Yes you are, but
Speaker 2: compared to your peers, you suck. And I really just
Speaker 2: need you to catch the ball, like I just, I
Speaker 2: really really need you to catch the ball. You're great,
Speaker 2: You're an amazing player compared to the rest of the world,
Speaker 2: but compared to your peers, you're not there.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: And nonetheless, give me the Falcons team total under twenty
Speaker 2: three and a half because I don't think they're gonna
Speaker 2: be able to score. I don't think they're gonna be
Speaker 2: able to put up points. By the way, the only
Speaker 2: time that teams have scored on this Charger team was
Speaker 2: the last two weeks when they played the Ravens, who
Speaker 2: have an MVP leader Lamar Jackson, and the Bengals who
Speaker 2: have Jamar Chase and Joe Burrow, who's leading the league
Speaker 2: in past such shows. So I think that this is
Speaker 2: a good spot for a bounce back for the Chargers
Speaker 2: to step up defensively. Slight concern for the rest advantage
Speaker 2: that the Falcons have here, but at the end of
Speaker 2: the day, I don't think the Falcons really actually do
Speaker 2: anything good on offense. They just kind of nickel and
Speaker 2: dime their way through these games and figure it out
Speaker 2: and then somehow fall out with the win. And so
Speaker 2: if they even surprise me and get a win here
Speaker 2: against the Chargers, I don't think they're putting up twenty
Speaker 2: four points to do so. I think it's going to
Speaker 2: be an ugly game and where the Chargers can't score
Speaker 2: and they somehow someway lose a nasty kind of seventeen, fourteen,
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen type of game like they did against the Cardinals.
Speaker 2: So yeah, give me Falcons team to under twenty three
Speaker 2: and a half. Regardless of what happens. I don't think
Speaker 2: they get over this.
Speaker 1: I think the one thing that did happen was the
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert post game press conference last week where he
Speaker 1: just like took the burden. He's like, well, I gotta
Speaker 1: throw better balls and this and that, and you know what,
Speaker 1: that's what leadership looks like. From the quarterback position. Aaron
Speaker 1: Rodgers should take a page out of Justin Herbert's book
Speaker 1: and some other quarterbacks in this league too. That's that's
Speaker 1: what it looks like. That's what leadership looks like. He
Speaker 1: knows that Quentin Johnston failed. Everybody knows, everybody with eyes knows.
Speaker 1: But what leadership does is you don't let those guys
Speaker 1: just get dogged out there. You go in front and
Speaker 1: you say, hey, you know, we're all responsible win as
Speaker 1: the team we loses. All that platitude and cliche nonsense
Speaker 1: gets fine, goes a long way in that locker room.
Speaker 1: That's what you're looking for in leadership. And I love
Speaker 1: that you saw that ad justin Herbert, because I think
Speaker 1: sometimes we get a sense that Herbert is a little
Speaker 1: bit of a you know, kind of a Nella personality.
Speaker 1: I like that. I like that a lot. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if that's like maybe some hardball stuff rubbing
Speaker 1: off on him a little bit, but whatever it was,
Speaker 1: I really liked it, and that bodes well.
Speaker 2: For him in the future with this team hashtag right line.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, all right, let's get to your next pick here,
Speaker 1: number three for you, Andrew Erickson, and you're in.
Speaker 2: On by the way, love this pick?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So let's let's set it up here. Jacksonville
Speaker 1: Jaguars at home, four and a half point underdogs. Houston
Speaker 1: Texans continued to struggle. I gotta say this was one
Speaker 1: that I was kind of looking at. He was like,
Speaker 1: do I believe in the Jaguars enough for an upset?
Speaker 1: I don't know. But you're in on the five and
Speaker 1: you're getting that number on betting Pros. Again, this is
Speaker 1: why you shop the lines on VP on the app.
Speaker 1: So let's talk about this one. What do you see
Speaker 1: here where you're a little worried about that Texans? And
Speaker 1: then again in one of these division games where we've
Speaker 1: seen this year. These Indivision games get real free game.
Speaker 3: Well, the Texans just can't cover the spread as favorites.
Speaker 3: Like they're just the one of the most overrated teams
Speaker 3: since the beginning of last year, basically once CJ. Stroud
Speaker 3: kind of got into the spotlight. Just been too much
Speaker 3: attention on them, and they've been overrated ever since. They
Speaker 3: failed to cover the spread in six of their last
Speaker 3: thirteen games as favorites. So for me, it's looking at
Speaker 3: I guess divisional matchup. They're playing on the road. We
Speaker 3: already saw this matchup play out the season, and the
Speaker 3: Jaguars covered. They covered the six point spread. They lost
Speaker 3: by four points, but that was a four point game
Speaker 3: heading into the fourth quarter, and we look at that
Speaker 3: specific matchup. The game went in the first half, they
Speaker 3: scored their three of their first four drives, and then
Speaker 3: they punted five straight times in the second half before scoring.
Speaker 3: They needed a game winning touch down to beat the
Speaker 3: Jaguars at home. So now I'm getting points with Jacksonville
Speaker 3: at home. Again. This is under the presumption that Trevor
Speaker 3: Lawrence is playing. He's practicing this week, so I'm assuming
Speaker 3: that he's gonna I don't want to. I'm not doing
Speaker 3: the Mac Johnson anymore. We're not doing that. But if
Speaker 3: it is Trevor Lawrence under center, I feel confident about
Speaker 3: him covering this spread. I mean, honestly, as I was
Speaker 3: writing up this game, I opened, Okay, Texas Bro's gonna
Speaker 3: win this game, but I think jag warl is covered.
Speaker 3: And then as I dove more into it, I'm like, dude,
Speaker 3: Jacksonville can win this game. I just said that Texas
Speaker 3: have so many problems up and down. I get that
Speaker 3: they have a good defense, but their offense is just
Speaker 3: a mess right now. And yeah, I get the Jaguars
Speaker 3: defense isn't good, but they're playing at home in the
Speaker 3: Jaguars seven to two against the spread as home underdogs,
Speaker 3: like they've been a team. When you're looking at just
Speaker 3: the trends, do you want to back the Texans as
Speaker 3: road favorites or the Jaguars at home underdogs. It's home
Speaker 3: underdogs for the Jacksonville Jaguars. So I will say, though
Speaker 3: I have to bring this to the table because Furman
Speaker 3: mentioned it. The Honoluluflu is still in play here for
Speaker 3: the Jaguars, unfortunately, which I didn't actually think about because
Speaker 3: it has even gone over by weeks. We look at
Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys when they played the lines, they had
Speaker 3: a bio and they got destroyed the next week too.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what still it survives?
Speaker 2: We dear Lord, I made mine.
Speaker 3: But yeah, other than that, everything else checks out for
Speaker 3: the Jaguars to cover the spread at home.
Speaker 2: So the reason I didn't get on this, and it's
Speaker 2: because it's just a flowchart game. The Jags haven't beat
Speaker 2: the Texans at home since twenty seventeen. There's a lot
Speaker 2: of bad Texas teams from twenty seventeen, so now they
Speaker 2: haven't beaten them at home since twenty seventeen. That's the
Speaker 2: only reason I couldn't get there on this play.
Speaker 1: But love the play. Yeah, Torell, your next pick is
Speaker 1: my lock of the week and you're still getting plus
Speaker 1: money on it, and I love it. The way you
Speaker 1: attack the Ravens is through the air, and that Ravens
Speaker 1: Eagles matchup is staring us in the face. It's going
Speaker 1: to be a very exciting, fun game. Who knows, could
Speaker 1: even be a Super Bowl preview. We'll see. But you're
Speaker 1: going with a touchdown call, And again, I think this
Speaker 1: was an absolute lock.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as much as I hate the Eagles, AJ Brown
Speaker 2: gets an end zone. Eagles are really really good with
Speaker 2: AJ Brown in lineup. AJ Brown is going to torch
Speaker 2: the little Ravens here, who they haven't made any moves,
Speaker 2: and it's probably because they don't have any moves to
Speaker 2: make and they don't really have another scheme. And that's
Speaker 2: where the issue is. Where these coordinators get jobs and
Speaker 2: lead teams and you're you're looking and see what the
Speaker 2: new coordinator is doing and how they fix these mistakes,
Speaker 2: and it just doesn't seem like they're doing anything to
Speaker 2: fix the secondary right now, Like they're just content on
Speaker 2: the secondary being bad and hoping that Lamar Jackson's office
Speaker 2: can kind of bail them out. And so nonetheless, if
Speaker 2: you're gonna do that, that's fine. But AJ Brown is
Speaker 2: one hundred percent getting that touchdown, Like that's just go
Speaker 2: ahead and shock AJ Brown, Mike Evans. Those are two
Speaker 2: guys that you don't care about the matchup, whether it's
Speaker 2: good or bad. You're like, oh, yeah, they're probably gonna
Speaker 2: find the en zone at some point, and so yeah,
Speaker 2: I love a big AJ Brown game, believe it or not.
Speaker 2: AJ Brown is also in like the top ten in
Speaker 2: terms of MVP odds, So I think that this is
Speaker 2: a good spot. Sequon had a big game that they
Speaker 2: go through the air in this game, really really attack
Speaker 2: that secondary for the Ravens, where I think the Ravens
Speaker 2: are gonna be able to put up pots on this
Speaker 2: Eagles defense and the Eagles are gonna have to respond.
Speaker 2: So I love a huge game. I just put any
Speaker 2: sound such down here at plus one twenty five. But
Speaker 2: I'm taking the yards too. I think this is a
Speaker 2: big AJ Brown game.
Speaker 1: All right, ericson your next bet here has to do
Speaker 1: with Kyler Murray, who did not look good last time
Speaker 1: we saw him. I know the Seattle Seahawks defense played well,
Speaker 1: and they've played better in recent weeks for sure, but
Speaker 1: still this was a very ugly performance for Kyler Murray.
Speaker 1: So he's heading into Minnesota to play the Vikings, a
Speaker 1: very unfriendly building with an unfriendly defense. So when it
Speaker 1: comes to the twenty nine and a half passing attempts,
Speaker 1: you're taking the over. Let's talk about why.
Speaker 3: Well, Kyler Murray's been over this number last week and
Speaker 3: in every single road game he's played this year. Right,
Speaker 3: Kyler Murray has been one of the most toughest players
Speaker 3: to project in fantasy football because he has so many
Speaker 3: top five finishes and then so many outside the top
Speaker 3: twenty overall, where you get really good games, and you
Speaker 3: get games like last week, like you said, Joe, where
Speaker 3: it's total mess and you're pulling your hair out thinking
Speaker 3: how could I ever start this guy again? And then
Speaker 3: he goes off the next week. So I am a
Speaker 3: little bit more optimistic about Kyler Murray in this particular
Speaker 3: match up. Again, it's not great on paper, but the
Speaker 3: thing that I'm confident about is Minnesota's defense drives passing
Speaker 3: volume from their opponents their second and passes face per
Speaker 3: game this season, and like I said, Murray when he
Speaker 3: goes on the road, usually in games where they're facing
Speaker 3: negative game script, he's attempted twenty nine and a half
Speaker 3: passing attempts in every single one. So I like pairing
Speaker 3: him with his tight end. Trade McBride like the over
Speaker 3: on his receiving art because I think there's gonna be
Speaker 3: a lot of volume from Kyler Murray. I'm kind of
Speaker 3: staying away from the sides and totals in this game.
Speaker 3: I think it's a really weird matchup with two teams
Speaker 3: coming off divisional games. So I'm gonna look at pass
Speaker 3: attempts for Kyler Murray going over.
Speaker 1: So the over on Murray. We've got two more from
Speaker 1: the guys here, and then we'll get the upset special
Speaker 1: of the week. I'll start with the Broncos here, Terrell.
Speaker 1: They are five and a half point favorites in this contest,
Speaker 1: and who'd thought we'd get here at this juncture in
Speaker 1: the season and we'd feel so good about the Denver Broncos.
Speaker 1: But they are seven to five. Their playoff team. I
Speaker 1: told everybody last week meant them to make the playoffs,
Speaker 1: because after they win this game last weekend, then it
Speaker 1: would be clear sailing. It was minus one twenty at
Speaker 1: the time. Now forgetting it's way in the minus. So
Speaker 1: they've got the Cleveland Browns, who came off a very
Speaker 1: fun victory and some extra rest. But you're pretty confident
Speaker 1: Denver handles their business. Why is that?
Speaker 2: Oh, because the only reason the Browns got that win
Speaker 2: is because they were also lucky, oh so lucky to
Speaker 2: get my boy Mike Tomlin as a favorite like that.
Speaker 2: That's just the fade right there. But now they go
Speaker 2: back on the road this Browns defense home road splits
Speaker 2: over the last two years have been abysmal in terms
Speaker 2: of they can't stop anybody, they can't do anything. And
Speaker 2: every time I am disappointed to myself that I take
Speaker 2: the Browns on the road because I know they can't
Speaker 2: stop anything on the road. There's not a reason to
Speaker 2: do that. That is a team that you fade. Nonetheless,
Speaker 2: this Denver defense is really really good. And again Jamis,
Speaker 2: thank you for all the quotes that you have given
Speaker 2: over the past week. Thank you. I mean, I don't
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're ever gonna hear this, but
Speaker 2: you are a national treasure. He is, and you should
Speaker 2: be protected. And I hope you are new y a
Speaker 2: giant next year, just so I can have something to
Speaker 2: look forward to on Sundays.
Speaker 1: Well, at least the miked up moments will be worth it,
Speaker 1: certainly more entertation Daniel Jones. I think we can agree
Speaker 1: on that and.
Speaker 2: Then a couple of wins to go with it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm perfectly fine with that.
Speaker 2: Nonetheless, when Jamis faces real defensive competition, yeah, he looks
Speaker 2: like Jamis without Lasik again, and there's some bad decisions.
Speaker 2: There's sometimes when he holds onto the football too long.
Speaker 2: There are reasons that you're like, oh yeah, this is
Speaker 2: why James is not a starting quarterback anymore. But nonetheless,
Speaker 2: Bronco is gonna take advantage Sean Payton again. The coddling
Speaker 2: of bo Nicks this season is amazing. I mean, it's
Speaker 2: just like a nurturing mother. Hey, oh, relax, relas, don't
Speaker 2: don't toush them, don't tosh them. Give him a second,
Speaker 2: let him make the throw. Let him make the throw.
Speaker 1: He's got it. Yeah, yeah, ooh yeah.
Speaker 2: They are one hundred percent covering five and a half here.
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win by ten.
Speaker 1: It was a really good reenactment. I really enjoyed that.
Speaker 1: Well all right, all right, let's and things with an
Speaker 1: ericson touchdown call? Where are you going for yours this weekender?
Speaker 3: And into MetLife Stadium, which is usually where points go
Speaker 3: to die. You really don't see like a lot of
Speaker 3: scoring in this but in this particular matchup, do you
Speaker 3: like Ken Walker to find the end zone? We look
Speaker 3: at the Jets defense. No defense has allowed a higher
Speaker 3: rate of rushing touchdowns versus passing touchdowns this year than
Speaker 3: Gang Green's defense. The Jets all's ranked second in terms
Speaker 3: of overall rush rate face this year. So ken Walker
Speaker 3: been kind of slow the last couple of weeks, hasn't
Speaker 3: really broke up a lot of big runs. But I
Speaker 3: think he's gonna find the end zone in a favorable
Speaker 3: matchup against the New York Jets, where the Seahawks are
Speaker 3: road favorites.
Speaker 1: So I like Walker all right. So Walker it is
Speaker 1: that brings us to our upset special. So give me
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints at home, fresh off the buy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that coach bounce seems to really be bouncing, continues to bounce.
Speaker 1: It's like Tigger from Way the Pooh, which is just
Speaker 1: never ending bounce there. And you know what, there's something
Speaker 1: about the Saints team now just seems really free and
Speaker 1: happy and having a good time. And that's very dangerous.
Speaker 1: And I think the Rams are playing a little tight.
Speaker 1: You know, they got their ass kicked on Prime Time
Speaker 1: and they're gonna have Album Kamara, who's at a steady
Speaker 1: workload all season, run through them again. And on that note,
Speaker 1: I just I'm just very concerned here with the Rams
Speaker 1: kind of fading into oblivion. And it's like you kind
Speaker 1: of looking around, like does anybody want to win the
Speaker 1: NFC West. Does anybody anybody want to win it? I
Speaker 1: would like to see somebody try that. Being said, I
Speaker 1: think New Orleans can scratch out of victory here. I
Speaker 1: don't feel great about the Rams on the road, so
Speaker 1: I think that defense is played a little bit better.
Speaker 1: And look now that you have weaponex Taysom Hill w
Speaker 1: reckon games too, I think you've got a good opportunity
Speaker 1: here for New Orleans to come up with a victory
Speaker 1: again plus one twenty eight on the money line. Let's
Speaker 1: put that together in the parlay of the week. Let's
Speaker 1: put that with the Bills in the snow against the
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers. You can lock that one
Speaker 1: up on the money line. And then the Seattle Seahawks
Speaker 1: as well on the money line too. We already talked
Speaker 1: about that one. Put those three things together, you get
Speaker 1: plus four twenty five. That, my friends, is a good
Speaker 1: holiday Sunday. And of course make sure you subscribe to
