It is me Joep Joep's Ape, and it's 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: time to look ahead to the wildcard. That's right, the 4 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 1: regular season is over, it's behind us, we can leave 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: it in the dust.

And to 8 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: help us break down the early lines, and the early 9 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: look ahead is of course Sam Hoppin and my boy 10 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: Pat fitz Morris, and we're gonna take a look at 11 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: the lines because we know between now and some of 12 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 1: the lines actually getting off to a start, things are 13 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: going to be a little different potentially. So maybe there's 14 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: some early value that the boys see in some of 15 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 1: these before they start getting bet to death as we 16 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: are going to be part of that.

Gentlemen, we 29 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: start things off with a bang here because the Houston Texans, 30 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: the great story. People were worried maybe they were overrated 31 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: in the betting market. Well, the Houston Texans have a 32 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: home playoff game, so maybe they were right. They are 33 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,199 Speaker 1: two and a half point underdog z though at home 34 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: taking on the Cleveland Browns, who not that long ago, 35 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: just a few short weeks ago, put on an absolute show. 36 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: They took him to the woodshed, my friends, and it 37 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: was not pretty. Two and a half is the number 38 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: right now. Again, the Cleveland Browns are favored on the 39 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 1: road forty fours, the can Census number of betting pros. 40 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: You can get the Houston Texans on the money line 41 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: at home at plus one twenty, so let's start there. 42 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: Let's start with you, Pat fitz Morris. I kind of 43 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: like the over on this one. First and foremost, I 44 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: think Houston will take that butt kicking they got personally, 45 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: and now CJ. 46 00:01:58,360 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: Strout a little healthier. 47 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Nico Collins great last week, and now you've got a 48 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: situation where the Browns arrested, So maybe being rested is 49 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: a good thing for Cleveland going on the road. 50 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: What do you think of this game? Any early love 51 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 2: for the early line? 52 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 3: Yeah? First of all, Joe, you didn't refer to it 53 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 3: as Super wild Card Weekend, so you're find so Roger 54 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 3: Goodell's office is in the mail super. 55 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: Wild Card Weekend. I apologize epic fail on my part. 56 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: Here you go. 57 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 3: Yes, So I do not have a strong feeling about 58 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 3: the total in this game. 59 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 4: I think it's pretty spot on. I took the Texans 60 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 4: on the money line. 61 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 3: I only got them at plus one fourteen on DraftKings. 62 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 3: Wish I would have seen it at one twenty. Didn't 63 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: get it that quickly, but then I. 64 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: Won't tell you. 65 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: On points bet it's plus one twenty five as of 66 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: about an hour ago, so I won't tell you that either. 67 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 4: Bleeding value here. 68 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 3: I think a lot of people are going to like 69 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 3: the Texans as a home dog, and I suspect it 70 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 3: is because people are going to look at the quarterback 71 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: matchup and you know, the belief that CJ. Stroud is 72 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 3: superior to Joe Flacco, which I agree with, and they 73 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 3: might overlook the quality gap between these two defenses, and 74 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 3: the Browns clearly have one of the best defenses in 75 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 3: the NFL, where the Texans defense is pretty pretty average, 76 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: respectable but average. I would say if people do focus 77 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 3: heavily on the quarterback and ignore the defenses while making 78 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: their bets, maybe that's a mistake. But on the other hand, 79 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 3: Joe Flacco has thrown eight interceptions in five games, and 80 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 3: on the other side, CJ. Stroud five interceptions actually leads 81 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: the NFL as a rookie in interception percentage. Just one 82 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 3: percent of his throws have a resulted in an interception, so. 83 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 4: That is pretty important. 84 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: Like Flacco is going to make an ill advised throw 85 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 3: or two or three, and if we see him give 86 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 3: it away to the Texans, I mean, that can really 87 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: turn this game. So I don't know how easily Stroud 88 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: is going to move the ball against this Cleveland defense, 89 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: but I think it's a pretty good bet that Stroud 90 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 3: is not going to carelessly give away the ball more 91 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: than you know, maybe once, maybe throws one interception. But 92 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: I think there is a chance that Flacco gives it 93 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 3: away multiple times and that could really swing it towards 94 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: the Texans here. So I do think there's value in 95 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 3: the Texans. 96 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 2: All right. Sam My dad used to always say, uh, 97 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 2: youth and skill is. 98 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 1: No match for old agent treachery. So Joe Flacco certainly 99 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: is old agent treachery. You've also got a situation where 100 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: sometimes teams come out a little flat after're not playing, 101 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: and you know. 102 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco had a little bit of a arrest here. 103 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: He is an older player. Saying can be said if 104 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: Amari Cooper, saying can be said of Kareem Hunt. So 105 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways, I think this was a 106 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: good thing that they were able to rest their guys. 107 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: They are going on the road, but Houston is still green. 108 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: Let's not forget that this group has never really had 109 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: to test itself at this level. Now now we're talking 110 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: about the playoffs. They passed the first test in Indianapolis. 111 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: That's true, but let's be frank. If you watch that game, 112 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: Indianapolis had a lot of opportunities there to seal the deal, 113 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: and they fell short. So how do we feel about 114 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: this contest? Looking at Cleveland and Houston. I like the 115 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: over I know Pat thinks it's right there, but I 116 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: think there's gonna be some more scoring and some more 117 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: competitiveness at the end. I'm leaning towards the Browns. 118 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: Do you have a lean. 119 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 5: I struggle? I mean, first and foremost, having the Texans 120 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 5: Saturday afternoon on Wild Super Wild Card. 121 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: Don't make them the same mistake guy did. Please, all 122 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: is right. 123 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 5: In the world with this scheduler right now, but there 124 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 5: is a huge difference being at home in a dome 125 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 5: versus being outside in Cleveland, you know, right next to 126 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 5: Lake Yriie like, And I think this benefits the Texans 127 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 5: more than it does Cleveland. And the Cleveland defense is 128 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 5: one that I think CJ. Stroud can exploit. He's been 129 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 5: great against Cover three and Jim Schwartz defense often runs 130 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 5: a lot of Cover one and Cover three. The concern 131 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 5: I have is with the coaching on Houston's side. They 132 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 5: can continue to make I think negative ev decisions in 133 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 5: terms of whether or not they go for it on 134 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 5: fourth down. They're still running the ball way more than 135 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 5: they should given they have CJ. Stroud, And I think again, 136 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 5: this Texans defense has been pretty good. They obviously got 137 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 5: gash on the ground against the Colts on Saturday night, 138 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 5: but their run defense has been pretty stout. That said, 139 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 5: the Browns have been letting Joe Flacco air it out, 140 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 5: and yes he's had some interceptions, but those can be 141 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 5: fluky at times, So I don't have a strong leaning. 142 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 5: I think if I had to choose a side, I'd 143 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 5: go the Texans side of the ball. I mean, you 144 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 5: mentioned the team not having a ton of experience in 145 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 5: the playoffs, which is true, but Dimiico Ryans was on 146 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 5: that San Francisco forty Niners staff for a number of 147 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 5: years when they were in the playoffs, so I think 148 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 5: he'll be able to take some of that. I think 149 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 5: they're obviously going into the playoffs with a lot of 150 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 5: momentum as well, So I lean the Texans, but it's 151 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 5: not a very as strong of a lean as I 152 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 5: have for this next game. 153 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: All right, So I guess I'm on the on the 154 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: island here a little bit looking at the Cleveland Browns. 155 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: That's okay, defense travels. I always say that at the 156 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: end of the day. But I think that the Cleveland 157 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: Browns again. You know, Houston's been a great story. I'm 158 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: rooting for CJ. Stroud, but Elite Joe Flacco kind of 159 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: you know, he moves on, not gonna lie. It's gonna 160 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: be a good day at the Elite Joe meeting that 161 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: we have every Wednesday, Miami, Kansas City. Can Miami beat 162 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: anybody who's any good? A question seems to be no 163 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: more often than not. And yet again they lost on 164 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football to the Buffalo Bills. Things fell apart 165 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: there for them on special teams and the rest, as 166 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: you would say, is history. The Kansas Chiefs at home 167 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: eleven and six. They are three and a half point 168 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: favorites against the Miami Dolphins. The consensus number for this 169 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: game right now is forty four. You can get plus 170 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: one fifty on the money line. That's the consensus number. 171 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: But if you look right now, you get plus one 172 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: sixty eight points bets if you like money lines. Points 173 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: bets seems to be the early place for him over 174 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: on betting pros as I'm looking here on the app, Sam, 175 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: We'll start with you on this one because I'm gonna 176 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: make this easy. To me, it's Kansas City until further notice. 177 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times are it to be beat 178 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: over the head that Miami can't handle their business? I 179 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: mean enough already, I've seen it. I've seen the sequel, 180 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: I've seen the third one. It's like the Rocky movies. 181 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: I'm sick of it. I don't want to see anymore. 182 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: And I know Kansas City has not exactly been world beaters, 183 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: but this game is in Kansas City, and I'm sorry, man, 184 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: I cannot put faith in Miami to cover. I can't 185 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: put faith in Miami to win. I just can't do it. 186 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: Every time they get a chance, they fall short. But 187 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: what do you think about this one? 188 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 5: I'm right there with you. I made this Kansas City 189 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 5: by five points. And to me, the biggest thing is 190 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 5: the health of both teams. Right now, Hey, Miami is falling. 191 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 5: Apart of the seams I mentioned this last week, they 192 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 5: have defensive guys going down left and right. It seems 193 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 5: like they could be without Andrew van Ginkel in this game. 194 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 5: Jalen Watta was questionable going into the game on Sunday. 195 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 5: I think he's going to play. I think it was 196 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 5: just a matter of you know, let's save him for 197 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 5: the playoffs. Tyreek did get banged up at the end 198 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 5: of the game. It didn't seem like anything super serious. 199 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 5: But this is a game on Saturday. You know, they're 200 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 5: playing on they played on Sunday night. It's gonna be 201 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 5: a very cold game. I think the current forecast has 202 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 5: it at single digits in Kansas City. And you know, 203 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 5: obviously the Chiefs didn't have the typical bye week that 204 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 5: they've been used to the last several weeks, but they 205 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 5: were able to rest their starters. They are pretty healthy 206 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 5: across the board. I think that defense is still good 207 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 5: enough and matches up well against Miami. So yeah, give 208 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 5: me Kansas City with the points. 209 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: All right, it's two for two. Pat, you want to 210 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: make a clean sweep here? What do you think about it? 211 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: No? 212 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 3: I do not, But I'm not going with Miami either. 213 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 3: I just don't want to touch this game. I mean, 214 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 3: on one hand, Joe, since the arrival of Patrick Mahomes, 215 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 3: the Chiefs are nine to three in home playoff games, 216 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 3: including eight to one their last four years. And we have, 217 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 3: as you mentioned, seeing the Dolphins struggle to beat good 218 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: teams all year. You know, the latest example being in 219 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: a game against the Bills in week eighteen where if 220 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: they win that they're they're playing at home this week. 221 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 3: So but man, I do not want to take the Chiefs. 222 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 3: Since Week eight, the Chiefs are five and five four 223 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 3: of those teams. Four of those wins have come against 224 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 3: teams that were starting backup quarterbacks Aidan O'Connell, Bailey, Zappie, 225 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 3: Jake Browning, East and Stick. The only game the Chiefs 226 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 3: have won against a team with a non backup quarterback 227 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 3: since Week eight when they beat the Miami Dolphins and 228 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 3: tu in week nine, so that game was twenty one 229 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 3: to fourteen. But man, the Chiefs have been so shaky 230 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 3: on offense for two solid months and these Dolphins haven't 231 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 3: demonstrated any sort of Super Bowl pettie at all. And 232 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 3: as Sam mentioned, the injuries are concerning, like a team 233 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: already down a couple of pass rushers and now they 234 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 3: lose Andrew van Ginkel, our boy from the University of Wisconsin. 235 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 3: Big loss if he's not able to play. 236 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, like I do. 237 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: Have What about the over then? Like can you get 238 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 2: behind that? 239 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 4: No? 240 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: No, I can't, not with not with the Chiefs offense 241 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: looking as like inept as it has really for the 242 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 3: last couple of months. I just can't do it. Yeah, 243 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 3: I'm not touching this game either way, Like I see 244 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 3: no value in either the side or total. I'm walking 245 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 3: away from this one. 246 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: Sam, looks like we can't interest Pat in our love 247 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: of the Chiefs. That's okay, Pat, we love you anyway, 248 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: It's fine. Next one on our slate is we shift 249 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: over to Sunday at one o'clock Eastern time. Of course, 250 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: the team we all thought would be in the playoffs, 251 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Buffalo Bills. The Bills are 252 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: ten boy favorites, a big number for Buffalo, and look, man, 253 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: it is hard to have that kind of faith. And yet, 254 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: at the same time, the Pittsburgh Steelers, I think we'd 255 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: all agree, are probably one of the weaker playoff teams, 256 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: if not maybe the weakest all around when you consider 257 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: what's happened to them this year. So this is a 258 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: curious one because we're being tempted, I know in some spots, 259 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: like it's Caesars and get nine and a half on 260 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: Buffalo if you're, you know, really running scared. Thirty five 261 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: is the consensus number on some spots already thirty seven 262 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: and a half is where it started, but I'm seeing 263 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: already thirty five and a half. So they're telling you 264 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: this is a very one sided game. And if you 265 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: like the Pittsburgh upset plus three ninety, I know the 266 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: TJ Watt health that's a big concern here in this game. 267 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: So Pat it's a big number and a low total. 268 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: They're telling you it's going to be a butt kick 269 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: on one side. Do you believe that narrative? 270 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 4: Oh man? I could like. 271 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 3: The Steelers had the sketchiest QB situation of any of 272 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: the playoff teams by far, and they're probably going to 273 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 3: be without TJ Watt. 274 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 4: I mean, I guess jj. 275 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: Watt has said that it's likely a sprained MCL, and 276 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 3: we know that sprain MCLs usually keep players out the 277 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 3: following week at least, so the Steelers may well be 278 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: out without arguably the most impactful defensive player in the league. 279 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 3: So can the Steelers ugly this game up enough to 280 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 3: keep it competitive and stay within ten points? I kind 281 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 3: of think they can. I've already put dipped a toe 282 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: in the water with a small half unit bet on 283 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 3: the Steelers plus ten and maybe I have too much 284 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: faith in Mike Tomlin and that faith has cost me 285 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 3: money at various points this season this year. Yeah, dating 286 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: all the way back to Week one, Joe, right. 287 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 2: Dating back to week one. 288 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: You're right, and I'll tell you what more, So like 289 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: it's gonna take a little bit of show me to 290 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: get it back. 291 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 292 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: I need a little bit of Mike Tomlin to prove 293 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: it at this point to me, because that was It's 294 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: been a rough year on that front. 295 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: So yeah, And the other the other part of this 296 00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 3: is that it's like a formulaic bet for me as well, 297 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 3: because we have seen a number of instances this season 298 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: where a team was a double digit favorite in a 299 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 3: game with a total of forty points or less. And 300 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: although I do not have specific numbers on that, I 301 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 3: think the two of you would agree that the underdog 302 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 3: has generally prevailed more often than not in those types 303 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: of setups. 304 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 4: So that's kind of a factor at work here. 305 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: Like I think with a total this low in a 306 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 3: game where we might see whether effects like I could 307 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: see this turning into kind of a rock fight and 308 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 3: the Steelers managing to stay keeping in within single digits 309 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 3: and not wildly confident in this, but I think it's 310 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 3: a decent percentage play. 311 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm taking the Steelers in the points. 312 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: TJ. 313 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: Watt will miss this game with the MCL So look, 314 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: that is a big factor to me, Sam, because you know, 315 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: we take that big piece out of that defense. If 316 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: you're trying to stay close, you need to put pressure 317 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: on Josh Allen. 318 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: Will you take TJ. Watt out of that lineup? You 319 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 2: fail to do that. 320 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: When you force Josh Allen to make mistakes, sometimes you 321 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: will make them. That's where I struggle with the narrative 322 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: with Pat. If all things were equal, with Pats saying 323 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm good with that, but I keep coming back to 324 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: the TJ. Watt issue, and I'm saying, well, if you 325 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: can't really force Josh Allen into mistakes, you can't put 326 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: pressure on him. This does leave this number, although big, 327 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: to be very much in play. But where do you 328 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: stand on it? 329 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 5: I'm with Pat like it's it's more of a numbers 330 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 5: based thing, right with this such a low total that 331 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 5: taking ten points is the mathematically correct thing to do, 332 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 5: So I think if I lean one way, it's that 333 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 5: An interesting stat from Rich Reebar. The Steelers currently have 334 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 5: a twelve point seventy five point implied team total for 335 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 5: this for Sunday, which would be the lowest implied team 336 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 5: total for a playoff team since the league went to 337 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 5: thirty two teams in two thousand and two. So just 338 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 5: sort of shows you what this Steelers team is, or 339 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 5: I guess it's not made of. But I I think T. J. 340 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 5: Watt honestly at this point, is probably worth like a 341 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 5: point to the spread. You know, I think if he's 342 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 5: playing this, this might get down to single digits. But 343 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 5: obviously he's not going to be playing. You know, Josh 344 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 5: Allen can Josh Allen this game both positively and negatively. 345 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 5: You know, he can be Superman, but he can also 346 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 5: be just you know, Jamis Winston level crazies in this 347 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 5: game as well. So I I'm not going to take 348 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 5: either side, but I if I were to lean one way, 349 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 5: it would be with the Steelers. 350 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: All right, let's continue on here to the next game, 351 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: the four o'clock game, your Green Bay Packers. By the way, 352 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: one last note of the on the Pittsburgh Steelers. This 353 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: was Bogman's nightmare, our own Scott Bogman. This was his nightmare. 354 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: He said the last thing he wanted was the Steelers 355 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: to get into playoffs because he knew they were going 356 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: to get their buck kicked, and he also wanted to 357 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: avoid having to move up in the draft, and all 358 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: those things happened. So we'll do a wellness check on 359 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: Bogman on Thursday and see how he's doing, because this 360 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: is it's been a tough twenty four hours for him 361 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: and Texas lost to last week, like he's just having 362 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: the worst week or so. It's not a good start 363 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: to the new year for our good pal, your Green 364 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: Bay Packers. And again the pride being shown by Sam 365 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: Hopping here on the program today. The Green and Yellow 366 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: are in the playoffs. I bet you didn't think that 367 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: was gonna happen. They snuck in at ninety eight right now, 368 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: you know I'm looking. The best line you get on 369 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: this game is seven and a half. Obviously, Dallas at 370 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: home the heavy favorites, as they should be. They even 371 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: so good all year at home. Fifty is the total 372 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 1: on DK forty nine and a half. You can get 373 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: over on bed MGM. If you like Green Bay for 374 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 1: the upset, and I don't, it's plus new two ninety 375 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: right now, that's the best spot you can get it. 376 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 2: So, look, you made it. You got in here. I 377 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 2: want to say it's not the worst case scenario, but 378 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: it's pretty close to. 379 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: The worst case scenario, Sam, like you're taking on Dallas 380 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: at home or Dallas has been so good in that building, 381 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: that offense has been tremendous. You're worried about your secondary 382 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: Oh wait and here Ceedee Lamb, who has been absolutely 383 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: filthy for the last ten weeks. So I'm pretty good 384 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 1: about this seven. Where do you feel about the seven 385 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: and a half? Where do you feel about this rangeer? 386 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: Does Dallas win this? 387 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 2: You think you're green Bay boys keep it close? 388 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 5: I think they can. I think if you wanted to 389 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 5: bet Dallas, it was when it was on the other 390 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 5: side of seven. I think it opened up around six 391 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 5: and a half. Taking at seven and a half seems 392 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 5: slightly too rich for me right now. If you do 393 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 5: want to get in on the Dallas side, I think 394 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 5: the right way to play it is teasing them down 395 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 5: to one and a half and potentially using either you know, 396 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 5: Tampa Bay or Houston as your other teaser leg as well. 397 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 5: This screen Bay offense is playing really well, and it's 398 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 5: you know, it's interesting because they don't have a true 399 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 5: number one wide receiver, right. They have a lot of 400 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 5: players that have a similar skill level at this point. 401 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 5: So on one hand, you don't have that one guy 402 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 5: that you can rely on to you know, get a 403 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 5: bucket in, you know, in the last second. But on 404 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 5: the defensive side, there's no one you could just like 405 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 5: take away. They have all these options, whether it's Christian Watson, 406 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 5: Jayden ree Doan, Tavian Wicks, Moleek Heath like, they have 407 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 5: depth at the position. I still don't know that that's 408 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 5: gonna be enough. The Bears did not get a lot 409 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 5: of pressure on Jordan Love. I think had maybe just 410 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 5: three pressures against the Packers on Sunday night. And this 411 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 5: Dallas defenses is gonna be able to get pressure with 412 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 5: with Michael Parsons and the rest of their defensive line. 413 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 5: I again, I think the Dallas teasing Dallas down is 414 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 5: the right way to go in this game. But man, 415 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 5: the Packers. 416 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: Win, well, we know something's gonna go. 417 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 5: Think it's gonna be fun. 418 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 2: Oh, well, it's gonna be fun for you. 419 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of Dallas Cowboys fans will be 420 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: very unhappy and and sure, Pat, that narrative exists right well, 421 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: it's Dallas Cowboys, So you know, get out the Heimlich maneuver, 422 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: get it ready, because the choking is just coming upon 423 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: us at any moment. But I don't know, I don't 424 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: feel that one in my bones in this one. I'm 425 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: watching this Cowboys team at home just dominade offensively. And 426 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, Jordan Love has been a good story this year. 427 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: I know it has been some ups and downs to 428 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: that story, but at the same time, they got to 429 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: the dance, they figured it out. But unfortunately their partner 430 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: right now I think is a little bit more mature 431 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: than they are, and I think they've got more moves 432 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: than they do. And I think it's gonna be a 433 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: spot where Dallas is gonna be looking for a new 434 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: partner next week and they're gonna be home on a 435 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: Friday night. What do you think about this situation here? Packers, 436 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: Dallas and this early line here, because seven and a 437 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: half is a good size number to. 438 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 3: Your point, show, the Cowboys have been absolutely dominant at 439 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 3: home eight and oho this season, and they have won 440 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 3: six of those eight games by twenty or more points. 441 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 3: So they have not just held serve at home, they 442 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 3: have just wiped people out at home. So at the 443 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 3: same time, I know Packers fans and non Packers fans 444 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: alike who have expressed to me that they cannot wait 445 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 3: to bet against Mike McCarthy as a big favorite in 446 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: the first round of the playoffs, and I totally understand 447 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 3: and that as a Packers fan who has seen a 448 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 3: lot of games coached by Mike McCarthy. The real wild 449 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 3: card here, I think is the Green Bay defense, because 450 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 3: less than a month ago we saw Baker Mayfield put 451 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 3: up almost four hundred passing yards against the Packers, and 452 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 3: then the next week they gave up over three hundred 453 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 3: passing yards to Bryce Young and the Panthers. But then 454 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: the last two weeks they almost completely skunked the Vikings, 455 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 3: and granted Jaren Hall was at quarterback for half of 456 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 3: that game, but like the Packers gave up ten points 457 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 3: and the only touchdown they gave up was when they 458 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 3: mouffed a punt and set up minnesotat like the ten 459 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 3: yard line, and then they really held justin fields in 460 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 3: check this past week. So I don't know where we're 461 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 3: at with the Packers. Defense, like Sam was expressing the 462 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 3: fear like it would be great if the Packers could win, 463 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 3: but that might mean the Packers don't fire Joe Berry 464 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,479 Speaker 3: as their defensive coordinator at the end of the season, 465 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 3: which also would be very dismaying to me. So, oh man, 466 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,119 Speaker 3: I just I've no idea what to make of the 467 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: Packers defensively right now. I have a better feeling about 468 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 3: the offense, obviously, with how well Jordan Love has been playing, 469 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 3: But can Green Bay score enough to keep up with Dallas? 470 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 4: I just don't know. 471 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 3: I am inclined not to bet this game, and if 472 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: I do, I will probably put a very modest bet 473 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 3: on the Packers on the money line at almost three 474 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 3: to one. But other than that, I'm not really interested 475 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 3: in the total, not really interested in the side. 476 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 2: Okay, I am. I'm interested in Dallas, and I'm bet Dallas. Already, 477 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 2: bet Dallas already seven and a half. Let's go. 478 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: Let's go Cowboys, you know, because I can't imagine what 479 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: my Tuesday is gonna be like when I walk back 480 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: into this room. If the Cowboys lose these two guys, 481 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: what will happen with Sam? It was gonna mean Sam's 482 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: gonna be head to toe. I expect the cheesehead on 483 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: your head like that's on, like the guy of the 484 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: cheese hat. Now, one of these game is gonna go 485 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 1: co cock eyed. One's gonna go sideways. We know that 486 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: this is the nature of Super wild Card Weekend. I 487 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: think it's this one. The Detroit Lions are favored by 488 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: three points. They're taking on the Los Angeles Rams. Fifty 489 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: one and a half is the number at Ford Field, 490 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: which is the cores field of the NFL. Our good 491 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: friend the Undertaker Andrew Erickson loves to say that plus 492 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: one forty five on the money line is the consensus 493 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: one for the Rams. I can get plus one fifty 494 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: five or at bet MGM using the betting pros app 495 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: and let me tell you that's exactly where I'm going. Pat, 496 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: I think the Rams are going to go in here 497 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: win a playoff game. Kiren's been great down the stretch, 498 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: Puka nakuas At and Rookie records. A week of rest 499 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: for Matthew Stafford and Cooper Cup cannot be denied how 500 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: important that is. And the injury to Sam Laporte I 501 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: think is a much bigger one than people realize. Brock 502 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: Wright's also hurt too. It's not like an easy plug 503 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: and play that hyper ex center of the knee. I'd 504 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: be very surprised if he plays this week. We'll see 505 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: what happens as the week goes on. More information yet 506 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 1: to come on that. But at the same time, Pat, 507 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: that's your red zone guy, that's your contested catch guy. 508 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: That's your guy that allows alman Rod to do some 509 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: aman Ra things and people not focus in on him. 510 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: Now they've got other weapons, they've got Gibbs, they've got 511 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 1: a run game, they're at home. Pat, I feel like 512 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: the Rams are going to be that team that goes 513 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: in has that big upset of the weekend. 514 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 2: What do you think? 515 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 3: I do think there's a little bit of value on 516 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 3: the Rams here, Joe, and you know it's Oh, by 517 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 3: the way, we've completely glossed over the fact that this 518 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 3: is the rare double revenge game with Matthew Stafford going 519 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 3: back to Detroit and Jared Goff, Sean McVeigh and the. 520 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: I not even think about that. I guess I'm still 521 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: recovering from the weekend action. But that's amazing. The narratives 522 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: here are going to be spectacular. So you know what 523 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to even more of the old Asian treachery. 524 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford let's go, Let's go, old man goes back 525 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: home makes a statement. 526 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 2: I love that. Now I'm even more excited about my bet. 527 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:42,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was funny. I was. 528 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 3: I was watching the end of that Rams forty nine 529 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 3: Ers game and kind of cheering for the forty nine 530 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 3: Ers to pull it out because I would rather the 531 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 3: Packers face the face of the Lions than the Cowboys, 532 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 3: the easier matchup. But at the same time, I knew 533 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 3: that we would get this matchup if the Rams were 534 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: able to pull that game out. What a like fun 535 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: sexy matchup this is for a wild card round. But yeah, 536 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,400 Speaker 3: I mean the Lions have gone a really long time 537 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 3: without a truly impressive victory Joe, like really going back 538 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 3: to unless you count them beating up the Broncos, which 539 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 3: I do not about a month ago. They have not 540 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 3: beaten a playoff team since they beat the Buccaneers in 541 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 3: Week six, and like, they've struggled against some mediocre teams 542 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 3: like the Bears, and they were embarrassed by the Packers 543 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving Day. Not that the Rams schedule is exactly 544 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 3: festooned with impressive victories. I mean, they did beat the 545 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 3: Browns and they took the Ravens to overtime a week later. 546 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 3: But man like, I just I feel like the Lions 547 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 3: have not been on the top of their games for. 548 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 4: A while now, and you wonder where their morale. 549 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 3: Is after losing a laporte in a game where it 550 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: was pretty debatable whether the Lions should have been going 551 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 3: all out and playing all their stuffs, you know, more 552 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 3: than whatever a series or two if you want to 553 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 3: keep guys sharp. So yeah, I think there's a little 554 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 3: bit of value on the Rams here, and I kind 555 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 3: of like them on the money line. 556 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 4: As for the total, Joe, Yeah, now this is man like. 557 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: Betting unders at cors Field does not feel comfortable, and 558 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 3: especially with the Lions having been a reliable over team. 559 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 3: They are eleven and six to the over this season 560 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 3: and the Rams are nine and. 561 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 4: Eight to the over. I still sort of like the under. 562 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 4: Like with a total of this high. 563 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 3: As Sam has pointed out, anytime you're getting totals like 564 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 3: fifty two or higher, so many things can short circuit 565 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 3: the over in that, like just a couple of straight 566 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 3: series that ends in punt that end in punts, you know, 567 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 3: like drives that end in field goals rather than touchdowns. 568 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 3: I think the under is the slightly better percentage play, 569 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 3: just kind of a vibe. So that's that's kind of 570 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: where I'm going in a money line. Bet on the Rams. 571 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna save everybody. 572 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: The Google search festooned is to adorn with ribbons, garlands 573 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: or other decorations, because I had to look that one up. 574 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: I always that's why you know, you come here for 575 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: the football, you stay for the vocab. Sam, your thoughts 576 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: on this one? 577 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 4: Huge? 578 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 2: Total? 579 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be the upset of the week. 580 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry Lions fans. I know you're so excited, 581 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 1: and I know a lot of them and they're so 582 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: excited about this, but the last thing you want to 583 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: see is Matthew Stafford. 584 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: I think come into town. 585 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: With the way the Rams have played down the stretch, 586 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: I think the Rams have plays some real their best 587 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: football in the last eight weeks. 588 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 2: So Sam, what do you think about this one? Yeah? 589 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 5: Look, we're giving English lessons out here today, so I'm 590 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 5: gonna make this short and simple with no big words. 591 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 5: The better quarterback is getting the points. Give me the Rams. 592 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 2: Oh, so succinct, so good. 593 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: I love it all. Right, let's go to the last game. Also, Man, 594 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: this one, this one really irks me. 595 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 2: Sam. Okay, you got the Tampa Buccaneers. They're at home. 596 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: They're two and a half point underdogs at home, probably 597 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: as they should be, to the Philadelphia Eagles, who are 598 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: just I mean limping in in fighting. You're hearing all 599 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: these negative things, people losing faith in the coach. 600 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 2: Is it true? Is it not? 601 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: Is it a media story? Forty four is the number 602 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: plus one twenty for Tampa. This seems like it should 603 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: be ripe for a potential Buccaneers win. I watched Baker 604 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,479 Speaker 1: Mayfield struggled yesterday, and I know he took a hit 605 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: in that game, and I know that ankle is not 606 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. 607 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 2: You could tell. 608 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 1: But Sam, I feel like this game is a big 609 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: trap and they're begging me to take Tampa. They're just 610 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: begging me to do it, and I want to in 611 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: the worst way, but I can't get there. 612 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 2: So where do we go? If anywhere? For Philly, Tampa or. 613 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 5: Buck using the same words, because I am falling in. 614 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 5: I feel like I'm falling into the biggest trap by 615 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 5: taking the Eagles here. The public is very down on Philadelphia, 616 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 5: and rightfully so that's well deserved. They just got blown 617 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 5: out by the New York Giants. They couldn't win against 618 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 5: the Arizona Cardinals. Their defense is falling apart. Jalen Hurts 619 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 5: is banged up. A J. Brown is banged up. Like 620 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 5: it's it's not great. But let's not pretend like Tampa 621 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 5: Bay has been game busters the last couple of weeks. 622 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 5: Like it took a nine to nothing win over the 623 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 5: worst team in the league for them to even get 624 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 5: into the playoffs and win their division. They didn't play 625 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 5: well against the Saints the week before. I think the 626 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 5: interior of this Eagles defensive line is going to be 627 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 5: able to get pressure in Baker Mayfield's face and cause 628 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 5: some disruptions enough that the Eagles can take home this win. 629 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 5: I you know, I think there's maybe a slight coaching 630 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 5: advantage from a process and game decision standpoint on the 631 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 5: Eagles side as well. I think Nick Sirianni, you know, 632 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 5: still continues to make plus ev decisions most of the time, 633 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 5: so they have that going for it for them as well. 634 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 5: I like to over end this game. You know, these 635 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 5: two offenses have struggled, obviously, I just mentioned that, but 636 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 5: these defenses are playing like sieves as well, and I 637 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 5: think they both play, you know, fast paced enough to 638 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 5: push this game over. Yeah, I feel like I'm falling 639 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 5: into a massive trap here with the Eagles. But I 640 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 5: you know, you're sort of buying them at their lowest 641 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 5: as well, and then I'm gonna sell high on them 642 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 5: next week when they win. 643 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: All right, So I'm in a Buccaneers trap. I'm walking 644 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: the plank. This guy is trying to get out of 645 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: the nest of the Eagles. Pat be the voice of 646 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: reason here. I mean, maybe maybe the best advice for 647 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: this game is to wait and bet it in game live, 648 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: as you see how these teams come out and who 649 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: comes out looking like they actually want to win this 650 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: football game, and then just smash that side of it. 651 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: That's what the more I talk about it, more I 652 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: think about it. Sam gave me a lot of good 653 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: points on the Eagles side too. Maybe I'm just waiting 654 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: to see who looks like they want to win and 655 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: to that point, you know, a couple weekends ago, but 656 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: we saw the Pittsburgh game against Cincinnati, I had no 657 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: feeling on that game whatsoever. And then I saw how 658 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: Pitts came out, how that crowd was and they were alive, 659 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: and Mason Rudolph, you know, had that big first play, 660 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: and I was like, there's no way Pittsburgh's losing this 661 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: football game, and bet itt in game live, and I think, 662 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta just wait and see who shows up 663 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: to the dance, and who do you think is gonna 664 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: show up? 665 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 4: I'm lost on which side is the trap here, Joe. 666 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 2: Like, hence the waiting, hence the yeah, all I know. 667 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 3: I'm looking at that slice of pizza on a plate 668 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 3: and ignoring the rope that is encircled around it, and 669 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 3: I think I'm ready to walk into the snare trap 670 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 3: and bet on the Buccaneers. Like That's the way. The 671 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 3: Eagles are just so completely lost right now. Their defense 672 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 3: is falling apart, the passing game hasn't been very good, 673 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: and now they are dealing with some major injury as 674 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 3: She's a wide receiver like AJ Brown hurt his knee yesterday. 675 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,239 Speaker 3: We don't know what his availability is going to be 676 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 3: for week eighteen. They already had DeVonta Smith this week 677 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 3: eighteen with an ankle injury, and the thing is the 678 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 3: Buccaneers have a good run defense. You can pick them 679 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 3: apart through the air. But will the Eagles be able 680 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 3: to do that if they are, you know, either completely 681 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: without aj Brown and DeVante Smith, or those guys are 682 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 3: not at one hundred percent, which seems like a bare 683 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 3: minimum that's going to be the case. So not that 684 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 3: the Buccaneers are a great team by any means, but 685 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 3: I do think they are a decent team, and they're 686 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 3: playing at home, and I have serious doubts right now 687 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: about the Eagles ability to beat a decent team on 688 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 3: the road the state they are in right now. 689 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: But I mean my faith, and I've said so many 690 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: nice things about Baker Mayfield, and you look up at 691 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: the stats at the end of the year and they 692 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 1: are above average quarterback stats. Like you take away the name, 693 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: you just look at the numbers. They're above average for 694 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: how the league has played this year at quarterback, and 695 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: theoretically above average quarterback play Mike Evans and Chris Godwin should. 696 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 2: Be enough to be the Eagles. 697 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: But I don't like the way the Buccaneers are played 698 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: down the stretcher in these last two games, and that 699 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: really worries me.
