I 81 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: know Simon's on a forty eight hour coffee and two 82 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: binge of just betting his face off, trying to figure 83 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: out what's happening in the markets in a reduced window. 84 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: You've been hearing a lot from your neighborhood. Let's get 85 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: too sharp calls. 86 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 2: Hello, who's there? I'm talking rain. 87 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: Rain telephone range. Somebody said, maybe what to do man? 88 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's just run through real quick for Thursday games. Right, 89 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,799 Speaker 2: Professionals that I've talked to, they love the Bears, no shocker, 90 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: they've loved the Bears these last couple of weeks, and 91 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 2: it's been hitting for him, right, and they've been betting 92 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: the good number, and I think they're going back to that. Well, 93 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: you know that's a game we're gonna break down. But 94 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: nothing's changed for me. Still like Detroit would be great 95 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: if it goes under ten. I mean there's still some 96 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: ten and a halfs out there, a couple of tens 97 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: are popping up now, it'd be great if it gets 98 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: sound of nine and a half. So nothing changed for 99 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: me there, But yeah, the professionals on the other side, 100 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: the boys love my side for the Giants game, you know, 101 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: we'll talk about that one as well. I just I 102 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 2: love this spot for this Giants team against this Cowboys 103 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 2: team coming off that type of win. And we've just 104 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 2: known historical data backs that the public always loves the 105 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: Cowboys on Thanksgiving and they just do not cover. It's 106 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 2: just the way it is. It's just either getting a 107 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: free couple of points or you're just getting a ton 108 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: of value on the money line fading them. So that's 109 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 2: when I came with to dive into in the last 110 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 2: one again, we love I wish we could put in 111 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: the contest green Bay minus three and a half at home. 112 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: That's when we're obvious just gonna break down. But the 113 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: professionals love that. There was a little back and forth. 114 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: I know a couple guys that like Miami. I think 115 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: it stems to what we talked about the two and 116 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: the Jordan love questions, right, Like one guy has been 117 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 2: playing great these last couple of weeks. The other one 118 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: is not makes total sense. Get their argument, but that's 119 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: a game we'll dive into and I'll give them my 120 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: reason why. We just love this Green Bay spot and 121 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: obviously there's other reasons for it. But Vegas, I mean, 122 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: that's a professional game. A lot of the pros I 123 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 2: talked to you love that game. Obviously would have been 124 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: nice if you get the thirteen thirteen and a half, 125 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: but you know, that's a game. Another game I think 126 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: we might talk about. I know we can't pun the contest, 127 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: but you know it's my homes is a double digit favorite, right. 128 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: I think it's that simple, and I kind of was 129 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: overthinking it. It's like, I don't know if I wanna 130 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: betting on this Raiders backup, but it's all about playing 131 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: the number, right chet. So yeah, the professionals, everyone I've 132 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 2: talked to, they like, they like that side. So nothing 133 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: shocked in there. So let's get to the Sunday games, 134 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 2: a game I love every pro I've talked who loves 135 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: this side Chargers. I know what happened last night. People, 136 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: I know it's gonna leave a bad taste in their mouth, 137 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: but every pro I talked to is on the Chargers 138 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: against Atlanta, so little foreshadowing that might be. Simon says, 139 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: I love that number, especially at one and a half, 140 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: So that's just a game. A lot of guys have 141 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: talked about Jags Jets games. We'll talk about as well, 142 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: ugly games. The pros like it. We've seen the Jags 143 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 2: number come down. I've seen early Seattle money came in 144 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: and that number one up two and a half. I 145 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: think that honestly makes sense with everything going on in 146 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 2: the Jets camp. So nothing shocking there in the last 147 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: two Buffalo I know it's a shocker. A lot of 148 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: people six and a half seven professionals love that. It's 149 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: one of the best running teams against a team that 150 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: can't stop the run right now in the forty nine 151 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: Ers and a team me and Chad love, I have 152 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: no doubt will be one of our five Carolina Panthers 153 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 2: professionals love that side. You know this touch six and 154 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 2: a half in a couple of books went right back 155 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: down a six couple books, five and a half makes sense. 156 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: We love this Panthers team. We like this matchup. The 157 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: Bucks are a really good team. Are they good enough 158 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: to blow out a divisional opponent on the road and 159 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: back to back weeks, I don't think so. So Yeah, 160 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: I'm excited to break down these games. Show. 161 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: God, you mentioned so many of the games that I 162 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: want to talk about today. On that first one up 163 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: Chicago at Detroit. That's a good job. 164 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: I got us to ten. 165 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 5: That's ten. That's nine in a row. 166 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: How many you guys have won nine in a row 167 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: in here in the NFL. Yeah, it's saying something that's rare. 168 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 3: All right, We're in rare air right now. 169 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: All right, so we're doing something special, which we knew 170 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: we would. 171 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: Detroit minus ten. As you just said, dude, it hit ten. 172 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: I don't know when you saw it. I saw it 173 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: this morning. This was a ten and a half. I 174 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: think even when I checked lines at six thirty or 175 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: seven this morning, it was still at ten and a half. 176 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: Now down to ten, and I love that for us, 177 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:39,599 Speaker 1: Like the Bears had two games in which Caleb Williams 178 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:46,239 Speaker 1: played well and they still lost in a coaching mismatch 179 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: with a lot of coaching mistakes. Right, Eberflus on the 180 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: road is historically bad. I know this feels like a huge, huge, 181 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: huge number, but all Jared goff In the line. Dou 182 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: Is cover go off thirty three and eleven against the 183 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: spread the past three seasons indoors. The last loss was 184 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: to the Texans in which they came back from a 185 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: million points and they still won by three. And they 186 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: lost to the Bucks in Week two. This is a 187 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: very physical football team that is consistent, and that's a 188 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: theme that I want to come back to later in 189 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: the show with another team. I'm excited to get your 190 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: take on that game that I want to talk about. 191 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: Let me define some some physical stats about the Lions. 192 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: Second overall in success rate offensively, second overall in success 193 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: rate for the run rush EPA, second, EPA overall. Third, 194 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: They're just great. I don't want to get in front 195 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: of this train. 196 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a team that didn't have to play that 197 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 2: hard in the fourth quarter, right, they kind of took 198 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: their foot off the guests. On the flip side, this 199 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 2: Bears team just went overtime. Now they're on a short week. 200 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: It's like we're now we're talking about that. How big 201 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: of a deal that is for a noon kickoff, which 202 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 2: is pretty insane you really think about it, you know, 203 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: looking at this matchup, Chad, I think we both view 204 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: the Bears a team that have turned a corner here, right, 205 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: Kaleb Williams, You know, I saw some crazy steat. He's 206 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 2: one of the only quarterbacks I believe this season that 207 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: three for three yards two touchdowns against that have Vikings 208 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: defense without having a turnover, which, you know, knock the 209 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 2: kid as much as he went for that dumb sack 210 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: he gave up, but that's a veteran playing type of quarterback. 211 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: That's a really tough defense to have. Vikings defense all 212 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 2: season he played great. So I get what the professionals 213 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 2: coming on. This is such a huge number. They believe 214 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 2: that calebill will make it to the back door. Totally 215 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: get where they're coming from. But I'm the viewpoint of 216 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 2: what you just said. This Detroit team is different. They're 217 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 2: a total complete teams, special teams, defense and offense. It's 218 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: all there. And defensively, I've I think they're gonna actually 219 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: struggle the Bears against this Detroit defense in this spot. 220 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 2: And I look at the offense, like you just talked 221 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: about the running style. How do we not bank that 222 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 2: that's the Bears' biggest weakness and that's exactly what the 223 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: Troy wants to do. They want to impose their will. 224 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: So we already saw the crazy stats from Evan, the 225 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 2: fact that you know, favorites are ten points or more. 226 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 2: They're just covering machines on Thanksgiving. We talked about that, 227 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 2: and you know, golf, this is shocking with Detroit and 228 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 2: him and Campbell. He's zero to three straight up on Thanksgiving. 229 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: So last year he got upset straight up against Jordan Love. 230 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: It believe they were seven and a half point favorite 231 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: something like that, And obviously I was on Detroit side. 232 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,319 Speaker 2: I cannot see that happening again with this team like it, 233 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 2: just like I get last year they got caught off guard. 234 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: But that Jordan Love team this is a totally different 235 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 2: steering air, a different spot. So yeah, this this one's 236 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: not gonna scare me off. Even if it was ten 237 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 2: and a half, I still would to take Detroit here 238 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 2: in this number. 239 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: I've honestly, I haven't done it yet because I was 240 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: staring at the ten and a half, it was staying 241 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: at minus one ten, and I was just waiting, knowing 242 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: that there was some rumbling from the professional betting community 243 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: that they were on the bears. You could start to 244 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: see a little bit in how that money was moving 245 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: that I felt like it was going to go to ten, 246 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 1: and it still may go down further, So I'm happy 247 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: to wait here. You mentioned the rush Bears twenty sixth 248 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: in run stop win Ray, what basically means they're not 249 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: very good at getting off the ball. Their rush defense 250 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: is truly terrible. They've allowed fewer than one hundred and 251 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: nineteen rushing yards just three times this season, fewer than 252 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: one hundred yards just twice, once to Jacksonville. And we're 253 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 1: talking about a Lions team that runs the ball with 254 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: abandon on third and long like, because they play every series. 255 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: If it's it's a full four ounce, they play all 256 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: four downs. They don't give up twenty five percent of 257 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: their opportunities to get a first down. So third and 258 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: eight they're giving it to Jumior Gibbs and thinking, great, 259 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: we get four yards. We're going to go four on 260 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: fourth and four anyways, So it's a mismatch in every regard. 261 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, Just to finish it off, the trend stats from 262 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 2: Evan Thanksgiving favorites double digits, so ten points are more 263 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: eleven and zero against the spread. Since nineteen ninety, Favorites 264 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 2: of seven points or more Thanksgiving twenty nine and five 265 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: straight up, twenty five and nine against the spread. So yeah, 266 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: this is a day for trends, and that's a trend 267 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 2: you cannot ignore. We wanted to stay apparently at ten 268 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: chat that would actually good for us. This is great. 269 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 5: You know, there's some things in life that just fit. 270 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 5: And I think when you talk about football, Thanksgiving, traditional 271 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 5: rivalries and being there, that's a good fit. 272 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: Happy Thanksgiving to you. 273 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 5: And Happy Thanksgiving to you, and we have it all 274 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 5: again today, the tradition of Thanksgiving and football. 275 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: All right, you talked about the Giants. They're at Dallas. 276 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: The spread is four, or you said it on Sunday night. 277 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: This line has gone up in the past forty eight hours, 278 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: from two and a half to three all the way 279 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: to four and a half. There's a little buy back 280 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: at four and a half. I mean, look, I understand 281 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: the logic. I know what's the number we should play. 282 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: I don't really want anything to do with it. I'm 283 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: glad it's not going to be a contest play. 284 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: I can't believe this. It feels like such a spot 285 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 2: for us. We just we can fait Cooper rush off 286 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: a dramatic win on the road coming Home now against 287 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 2: you know, Dany Vito just got destroyed. I mean they 288 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 2: got to the trash is a gold mine. 289 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: He plays like Dana DeVito, but his name is Tommy DeVito. 290 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: He's just terrible. So yeah, I'm just I get where 291 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: people are coming from. I get why your hesitation here, 292 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 2: But to me, I don't think the Giants are as 293 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 2: bad as they look. That was just a really well 294 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: prepared Buckston that just absolutely rolled them. You know, it 295 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: was not really a good prepared team. The Cowboys they're bad. 296 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 2: They're a bad coach team. So looking at this matchup 297 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: feels like we're getting what a free point and a 298 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: half here? This is this line has been bumped up 299 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: all up to four now at this point, So I 300 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: love it. And I talked about those trends that evn't 301 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: talked about where it's like, okay, the Cowboys are always 302 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: going a couple extra points right a quote unquote America's team, 303 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 2: especially on Thanksgiving, this is a unique spot where it's 304 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: like all the money is really pouring in all them, 305 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: like this is going to be probably the biggest knee dog, 306 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 2: And usually when favorites got a ton of money on Thanksgiving, 307 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 2: I picked them, right, that's that you want to be 308 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: on the really chalky side on Thanksgiving. But the Cowboys 309 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 2: are a little different. So you know, they're two and 310 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: eleven against the spread the last thirteen Thanksgiving games, feeling 311 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 2: to cover by nine points per game. That's pretty insane. 312 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: Off the top, they haven't won a back to back. 313 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: They haven't won it covered. I should say back to 314 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: back Thanksgiving game since Tony Roum went oh eight and 315 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 2: oh nine. So I guess if you're one of those 316 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 2: people that think they're due, I guess this is your spot. 317 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: Take the Cowboys here, and it is what we just 318 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 2: talked to. The Giants are reeling right now. It looks 319 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 2: like a good team that might have quit, but it's really 320 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 2: I just have to play this number and take this 321 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 2: plus four with this Giants teams. 322 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: So hard to figure out when to block out the 323 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: noise and when to lean into the noise. Yeah, we 324 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: have two New York teams. You mentioned to the Jets 325 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: as being a wise guy play. We're going to get 326 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: into the Jets in a little bit and just a 327 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: little foreshadowing. The noise on the Jets right now doesn't 328 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: bother me at all. The noise on. The Giants completely 329 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: bothers me because I think they're so beaten down by 330 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: the fact that Saquan is running for two hundred and 331 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: fifty five yards and they just got rid of their 332 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: best quarterback. I think the players have lost faith in 333 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: management and the players. Malik Nighbors has clearly lost faith 334 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: in Brian Dables play conk. I'm not saying it's not 335 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: the right side. The number says it's the right side. 336 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm trying to sort of cognitively separate when I decide 337 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: playing the right number over rides any noise that I'm 338 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: hearing from the team versus the noise doesn't bother me. 339 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: What is that? What is that mechanism? As you would say, 340 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: I'm overthinking it. Play the fucking number. Yeah, Miami at 341 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: Green Bay. Green Bay is minus three. We jumped on 342 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: it at three and a half. H I don't get it, like, 343 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: why did this move and did we jump on it 344 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: too soon? I get that Jordan Love isn't playing well, 345 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: which could be impacting the line a little bit. And 346 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: I know like perception wise, Tua has been great since 347 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: he came back, but he dominated the Raiders and the 348 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: Patriots and the Raiders were down by five with just 349 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: over three minutes left in the game. And I'm not 350 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: I'm not crediting them for beating the Rams. I think 351 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: the Rams beat themselves in that game. So why is 352 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: this line moving the other direction? 353 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: Simon says, gimme green Bay minus three. Chad, we do 354 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 2: what s say. Wow, I don't get it. I love 355 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: this number. I think you're nailing it. Though. The general 356 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 2: public must just love to right now, right everyone's drinking 357 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 2: the two a cool ad. It's it's understandable that offense 358 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: did look really good and even their defense has looked 359 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 2: better these last couple of weeks. I'll give them some 360 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 2: credit for that. Like you know that that Rams win 361 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 2: has sparked something in them a couple weeks ago, where 362 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 2: you're right though, they've just been beating up on bad 363 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: teams since then. The Rams might be a bad team. 364 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 2: So you know, I don't think Green Bay is a 365 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 2: bad team, to say, playoff team. That's you know, in 366 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 2: one of the toughest divisions of football. And you know, 367 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 2: if they've been winning a lot of really tough, ugly games, 368 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: and I agree with you, like that that Bears game 369 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 2: I think taught them a lot. Not I'm not trying 370 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 2: to say it taught them a lot about Jordan Love, 371 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 2: but I think it made them realize they do need 372 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 2: to just lean on the run, right, that's their bread 373 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 2: and butter. Jacobs has kind of been the motor for them, 374 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 2: and that doesn't change for this matchup Miami. You know, 375 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 2: as good as they are running the ball, I don't 376 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 2: really think they're a good team at stopping the run, 377 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 2: and especially when it's cold. And like we talked about 378 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 2: these trends from Evan, he had some amazing trends just 379 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: about Miami and cold weather. And we know we're being 380 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 2: it to death, but it's like that's a real thing. 381 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: That team coming from the South up to the north 382 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 2: and it's gonna be really cold, right. I think they're 383 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: saying it could be in the twenties when this game starts, 384 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 2: like twenty five twenty six degrees, and you know, Miami 385 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 2: zero and four straight up. You know, when two is 386 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 2: playing with them in this cold weather, he's one and 387 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 2: three against the spread. They're feeling to cover by eighteen 388 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 2: points per game in those matchups, Like that's not fluky, 389 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 2: that's a real thing. And to me, the fact we're 390 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 2: getting minus three. Now. It's just totally about the perception 391 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 2: of the two quarterbacks. I just think the jerdnal love 392 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 2: hates going too far at this point, the Tua loves 393 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 2: getting too much love, and this is the kind of 394 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 2: a game that they come crashing back down on earth, 395 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 2: this Miami team, Right, So I'm running to grab that 396 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 2: minus three. I just I can just say going back 397 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 2: up to three and a half in the next couple 398 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 2: hours or maybe the next couple of days. 399 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can see in the app. I've already bet 400 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: the three and a half. I will as soon as 401 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 1: we get off the show, as long as it's still around, 402 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: bet the three as well. You mentioned to sort of 403 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: against the spread away from home versus winning teams. I 404 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: want to remind people when he beat the Rams, the 405 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 1: Rams were not a winning team, So Tua going on 406 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: the road to beat the Rams does not count as 407 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 1: all of a sudden they've reframed who they are. I 408 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: just think, like, this is the spot you bet against them. 409 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: I like the matchup, I like the trends. I think 410 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: it's in our favor. Matt Lafleur, excuse me. At home 411 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: twenty three and fourteen, as a favorite. That's sixty one percent. 412 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: Go peck go. 413 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 3: Went no, it's not jump. 414 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: All right. You mentioned the Chiefs and you said exactly 415 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: what I put in the script. Do we just suck 416 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: it up and bet the number? Do we not be 417 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: distracted or dissuaded by noise, perception, past experience, and the 418 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: emotion of it all. Patrick Mahomes is a ten point 419 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: favorite in the division forty five percent, and it's happened 420 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: twenty one times for all divisions. By the way, the 421 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: against the spread record for Phasian the spot is forty 422 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: eight percent, so he's actually worse than sort of the 423 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: average for every other division. This number is down from 424 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: thirteen and a half. I don't know if it's going 425 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: to be de Desmond, ridder Aid and O'Connell, ken Stabler. 426 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: I think we're just betting the twelve and a half. 427 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's they don't feel good about it, but this 428 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: is what we did. It's just playing the number. And 429 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: I wanted, honestly to be on the Chiefs, and I 430 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 2: was trying to find reasons to lie to myself for 431 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 2: It's like, no, this is the spot to take them, 432 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: but man, they have what three games in the next 433 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 2: sixteen to fifteen days something crazy where it's like they 434 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 2: got to play this game, then they got a Saturday game, 435 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 2: and they have the whatever that is a Wednesday game 436 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 2: because of Christmas in the next couple weeks, Like December 437 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 2: is a really weird month. The next twenty five days 438 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 2: is gonna be very weird for this Chiefs team. So 439 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 2: we saw Carolina, they let them get back in the 440 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 2: game because they take the foot off the gas. And uh, 441 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 2: it's not shocking anyone that he's never covered as a 442 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 2: bigger than a ten point favorite. Mahmes. He just even 443 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 2: when they had all those dominant teams a Tyreek Hill, 444 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: that's pretty shocking. They never covered as a big favorite 445 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 2: right there there. Whoever, it is four and one. They 446 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 2: pushed Uh one time at landed right on ten. So 447 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 2: we talk all the time, we're just taking the number, 448 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,959 Speaker 2: taking the value, and yeah, we'll take this Raiders at 449 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 2: either plus thirteen plus twelve and a half and just 450 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: pray we get a find like a backdoor here on 451 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 2: like what they did last week. 452 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: Look, I think the number is going to go up 453 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 1: because I think people will come in on Black Friday 454 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: and see, oh my god, the Chiefs are playing the Raiders. 455 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? And what? I don't actually think 456 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: the Chiefs take the foot off the gas. I think, 457 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: and we've seen this for a couple of years. They're 458 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 1: just entirely different team in the second half. We even 459 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: saw it against the Bills, Like they go for long 460 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: sustain drives. They have the benefit of Patrick Mahomes who 461 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: converts third downs at an other worldly rate fifty two 462 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: point seven percent converting third downs. That is like third 463 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: best this century. I read that on ESPN Dot Calm 464 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: this morning. And that allows them to be more conservative 465 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: in their play calling in the second half to bleed 466 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: the clock. They know, oh, if the game is close 467 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: and they get an opportunity with Patrick Mahomes, there's no 468 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: value in putting themselves in a position to be in 469 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: a shootout, or to put themselves in position to make 470 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 1: bad turnovers that will give the other team an advantage. 471 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: So just go slow, and I think that allows teams 472 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: that are big dogs to stay in it for longer. 473 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: That's what I think. What do you think of that? 474 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. 475 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 2: It's an interesting theory. 476 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: By the way you say it, it feels a little bit 477 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 1: like you're like you're patting me on the head. 478 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: Well, they're the best second half team in all football, right, Evan. 479 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 2: I mean they no one covers more than the Chiefs 480 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: in the second half. They're just they're great to run 481 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 2: the ball down team's throat and just burn the clock 482 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 2: and their defensive stout. But I just agree, I do 483 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: agree with what you're saying. 484 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: Okay, it doesn't feel like you support it. I gave 485 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: it a lot of thought and you're like, eh, just 486 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: bet the number. Guess what. It's time for Big Balls 487 00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: Better the Week presented by our friends at Tommy John. 488 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: If you've got the balls, Tommy John has the support. 489 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: That's right. I put on my TJ's this morning, my 490 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: favorite pod underwear for the show. Great games start with 491 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: great underwear. Tommy John makes the greatest. They also sent 492 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: us some great swag like the new banner over my 493 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: shoulder and at Tommy John Football that is like the 494 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: most grippable football. I cannot wait to rip it outside 495 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: in the backyard and just sling this thing. It's it's 496 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: having on my Tommy John's that makes it possible for 497 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: me to say that our Big Balls Better of the 498 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: Week is going to be the New York Jets plus 499 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: two and a half against Seattle. 500 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 2: This sucks and it's horseshit, But I'm too polite to 501 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: say anything because I'm a class act. 502 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: Everything I said about the Giants leaning away from the noise, 503 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm leaning into it with the Jets. And I know 504 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: you agree here, I know the wise guys agree. You 505 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: mentioned it, and sharp calls Woody Johnson, the owner of 506 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: the Jets. He's basically entered his Montgomery Burns slash George 507 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: Steinbrenner phase of his ownership reign. He's done being the 508 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: quiet guy. He doesn't say anything wearing his Jets hat. 509 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: He is firing his coaches without telling one. He is 510 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: trading for DeVante Adams without telling anyone. He's thinking about 511 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: benching Aaron Rodgers the coup de gras. Last week, he 512 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: fired hiss GM after landing on the practice field in 513 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: a helicopter. At that moment, the GM Joe Douglas joked 514 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: to a coach he was standing next to, if I 515 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: don't come back, it's been a pleasure to serve with you, 516 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: and then he did actually get fired. The helicopter landing 517 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: is kind of my favorite part of all this, Like 518 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 1: fuck this noise. Literally, I'm so done with all you people. 519 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: I think you know, off of Bye, I think it's chaos. 520 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: No reason to back Geno Smith off at two games 521 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: in which he's like slinging red zone interceptions but still 522 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: making valiant comebacks in the final two minutes. Give me 523 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: the Jets. Jets, Jet Jets. 524 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is such a spot we can't avoid. I'm 525 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 2: with you. It feels a little sick, right, It's it's 526 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 2: like Baine saying we were born in the darkness. It's 527 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 2: it's really a sick play. But it's a number. We 528 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 2: have to take this numbers move too much off Seattle 529 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: when that yes, their defense played really well, but me 530 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 2: and Chat both agreed. I felt like that was more 531 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 2: about Kyler than anything else. I did go back watched 532 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: Out twenty two and he did have guys open, and 533 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 2: when you do break it down, it's like, Okay, this 534 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 2: Jets team, for all that the hell is going on 535 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 2: with them, they still have an all that can move 536 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: the ball. I know that people are just down on Rogers, right. 537 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 2: They think they're either gonna cut them and release them 538 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,719 Speaker 2: just because the owner hates them and everything terrible going on. 539 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 2: I totally get the public reception right now, but we 540 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 2: don't really think that way. We're really just playing the numbers. 541 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 2: And the fact that this has moved two and a 542 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: half because it's his negative vibes with the Jets is 543 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: a very bizarre movement here and makes total sense of 544 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: the public is just hammering this number. It's one of 545 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 2: the more bet on sides right now early in the week, 546 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 2: which is shocking because usually people don't really bet the Sundays, 547 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 2: right They're gonna put all their money into the Thursday 548 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: games and then they'll roll it over into the Sundays. 549 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 2: But that's how bad this Jets use. Guys are already 550 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: putting their parlays and their teasers together with this Seahawks team, 551 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: and I just look at this matchup. Is the Jets 552 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 2: ris bad public perception? I know they're three and eight, 553 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 2: but it's like after the bye week, Chad, like you 554 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 2: just said, isn't this it Like, isn't this their last stand? 555 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: I mean at this point with the number, it's just 556 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 2: it feels like it's too good to pass on in 557 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 2: just the matchup wise as well, I think there's a 558 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: lot of ways they can actually get get after Genos 559 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: Smith and offensively that they can move the ball against 560 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 2: the Seahawks defense. So yeah, give me them at plus 561 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: two and a half every time. 562 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that's terrible. I know we haven't really been 563 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: on the Jets at all since almost Week one. 564 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 2: Took a nice break from them. 565 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, we loved them week one against the Niners, and 566 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: we've sort of walked away from them. It's funny how 567 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: we both sort of felt like this might be the time. 568 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: To me, this is it's as much a bet against 569 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: Gino in Seattle. I don't think we really know who 570 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: this team is yet, and I don't know that we're 571 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: taking a lot from a last second win against a 572 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: very challenged San Francisco team that was impacted directly by 573 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa being out of that game. And that was 574 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: the difference. Like if you go back and look, they were, 575 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: they were in good shape in that game. He was 576 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: playing great, Gino was playing confused and discombobulated, and then 577 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: he goes out and Gino gets that last two minute 578 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: drive and they win the game. And last week, like 579 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: he was not good, it was the Cardinals who were bad. 580 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: So I think they're getting they're getting a bounce for 581 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: being a public perception bounce, not a performance bounce. Simon. 582 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: Speaking of performance, we're in the final weeks of the 583 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: NFL season, good or bad.

What's most surprising to me about this, Simon, 604 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: is that we questioned betting Mike Tomlin as a dog 605 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: on the road off of the loss. The number touched 606 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: three for a minute on Monday. I bet at three. 607 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: You can see it in the app. Am. I you 608 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: would tell me not to overthink, but you and I 609 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: actually haven't talked about this game at all, and I 610 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: can't tell from your expression as I normally can when 611 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: you're all in with me or. 612 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 2: Not get them ready to take the failed every series. 613 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 4: I'm not all in, but I am betting it, but 614 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 4: I'm there are a little hesitation here with me. 615 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 2: With Pittsburgh. It's like when do we get off the 616 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 2: train that we've been riding all season because they had 617 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 2: been really good to us, and we fade them last 618 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 2: week and it was a nice spot and I think 619 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 2: we even mean you joked about like a lot of 620 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: those games that we bet them on, it was really 621 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 2: about the Tomlin and the number in the spot, and 622 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 2: it's like, we don't know how we covered those numbers. 623 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 2: It just got there. We feel very fortunate to get there, 624 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,919 Speaker 2: and I think most Pittsburgh's fans feels fortunate. But yeah, 625 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: the fact that, you know whatever, Cincinnati is four and 626 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 2: seven and they're a three point favorite here is pretty 627 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 2: telling where it's like they just know this division is 628 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 2: really weird, where it like, doesn't you throw the records 629 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,879 Speaker 2: out right, and it's all about the matchups and that's 630 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 2: what they're kind of banking on here. So if you 631 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 2: can stuck at the plus three on Pittsburgh, I would 632 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 2: take it, you know, I just I don't want to 633 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 2: be backing since even at two and a half, I 634 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 2: just I feel more confident in Pittsburgh. I trust the 635 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 2: trust and number, I trust what they have, which is 636 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: a really good defense and offense that with Russell Wilson 637 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 2: as a move in the ball. Like for the most part, 638 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 2: I know obviously last week wasn't their best game, but 639 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 2: like that was just a fishy, short week Thursday game. 640 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,439 Speaker 2: So that's what I might having a hard time. I'm 641 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 2: not trying to react to just that one game. And 642 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: just like you said, trust Tomlin in this spot against 643 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 2: the Bengals team that you know, as great as Joe 644 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: Burrow has been They've been overrated all season, and like 645 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 2: the number reflects that. Like every week for the most part, 646 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,399 Speaker 2: people have come in on their side and just been disappointment, 647 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 2: and they don't care. They come back the next week 648 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 2: just because Joe Burrow is just putting up video game numbers. 649 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's all about the number, right, So shop 650 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 2: around find that plus. 651 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: Three Towlin is the most profitable coach as a dog 652 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: the past twenty years, covering it a sixty two percent 653 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: clip on the road, same is true, same number as 654 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: a dog in the division. On the road, the number 655 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: goes up to sixty four percent when the spread is 656 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: between one and three. If this was three, I'd make 657 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: it my exact decision. 658 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 3: I know. 659 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 2: I'm so bummed to drop down because that would have 660 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 2: been right right on the nose. That'd been a great pick. 661 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: It would have been the exact number that I wanted 662 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: it to be at. You gotta check the numbers, folks, 663 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: set the alerts in the Action Network app. It may 664 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: get back there. I have a feeling if it gets 665 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: to three going to be one o'clock in the morning 666 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: when only people like Simon are checking and wise guys 667 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: will buy it at three again, but be on the lookout. 668 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 2: So bit we set responsibility for that. We will not 669 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 2: go gently. We're going to unleash hell here in December. 670 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 2: We're gonna go into tack mode because we have to, 671 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 2: because that's what's required. 672 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: Indie at New England, really interesting game. The line opened 673 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,799 Speaker 1: at Colts one and a half. It moved quickly. For 674 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: the record, I bet it at two and a half. 675 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 1: I wish we had kind of discussed this on Sunday. 676 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: Do you feel like we missed it? I kind of 677 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: feel like we missed it on Sunday. I don't know why. 678 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: Maybe we were a little bit sort of clouded by 679 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: our faith in the Colts being shattered against the Lions. 680 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: But I feel like we missed the opportunity to buy 681 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: it a little bit shorter. 682 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 2: I mean there's still two and a halves out there 683 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: if you like the Colts. I got no issue with it. 684 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 2: I got no read on this game. I'll be honest, Chad, 685 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 2: like I want to take the Colts with you, especially 686 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 2: at two and a half. It feels a good number, 687 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: but it's like another thing where it's like why is 688 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 2: this not three three and a half? Like who is 689 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 2: backing the Patriots after what just happened in Miami. Like, 690 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 2: it's only going to be professionals, not anyone on the 691 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 2: public side. So it's just a little bit of a 692 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: fishy line. That's maybe my hesitation here because I think 693 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 2: the Colts are a better coach team, a better team 694 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 2: on the field. Like it just feels like a nice 695 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 2: spot to back this Colts team, especially after what six 696 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 2: point performance against one of the best teams in all 697 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: of football. But we've seen teams that played Detroit for 698 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: some reason, they're just beat the hell the following week 699 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 2: and they've struggled this year. It's crazy that other teams 700 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 2: just beat the hell out of them like that. So yeah, 701 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 2: if you came to me Sunday morning, you were like, 702 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: it's still two and a half. I really love the 703 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: Colts here. I love this matchup. I'm not going to 704 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 2: fight John it just because I've loved this Colts team 705 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: all season. It's really about playing the number two where 706 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 2: if it's under three, I agree with you that the 707 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 2: value is on the Colts here. I just I haven't 708 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: pulled the trigger on either side betting this one. 709 00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: I guess I look at this as the Colts against 710 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 1: the best team in the NFL, not as the Colts 711 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: being a bad team. Yeah, we know they're effective on 712 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: the ground. We know they have an offensive line that 713 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 1: is top five in run blocking metrics. We even saw 714 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: like Anthony Richardson dominated in that first quarter as a runner. 715 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: And sure we've been happily surprised with Drake May it's 716 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: throwing the ball, but the Colt secondary is actually really good, 717 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,760 Speaker 1: like top five and deep coverage, which is where Drake 718 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 1: does his damage. Seventh in coverage when they blit ninth 719 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 1: against play action. Play action is what helps rookie quarterbacks 720 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: the most. If New England could effectively run the ball, 721 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: but they can't and their bottom five and stopping their 722 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: run and it's the worst pass defense in the league, 723 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 1: and it's the lowest ring team according to DVA DVOA. 724 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: I'm so close to making it the exact decision, but 725 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm not doing it. Second game in a row. I 726 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: like them, I like them, I've bet them. You can 727 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: see it in the app with the Steelers and the Packers, 728 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: but it's not the exact decision. Arizona Minnesota three and 729 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: a half. I guess I feel like this is the 730 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: exact right line. I think the Vikings are better across 731 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,959 Speaker 1: every metric. The line reflects it. I can't I can't 732 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,399 Speaker 1: find a reason to want to back Kyler here, can 733 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: you No? 734 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 2: And I have it at four and a half. So 735 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 2: it's like, okay, model likes the Vikings. I kind of 736 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 2: like the Vikings as well. On the spot, it's like 737 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 2: we've seen this Cardinals team. They are good, but a 738 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 2: lot of their wins, like we joke about, they feel 739 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 2: like they've been a little lucky about the spots they've 740 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 2: been in that when they do face we're the good teams, 741 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 2: they kind of get dominated, right And you know, not 742 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 2: that I'm saying Stocksford a good team last week, I think, 743 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 2: you know, like I said, Kyler hadn't missed opportunities. But 744 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 2: this Vikings team, I've come around on it. We're like 745 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 2: they're a good team. Like San Darnold in that game 746 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: against the Bears, he was next to flawless, Like he 747 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 2: really played an amazing game. 748 00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: He was great, actually was better, he was better after 749 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: he got knocked out for the play. Nick Marlins comes in, 750 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: converts the first down. Sam Donald comes limping back on 751 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 1: and he was fucking throwing darts. And dimes and lasers. 752 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love the call by Kimin o'contoo, and like 753 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 2: you know, they're bringing the backup quarterback and he just 754 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 2: has a really perfect play out up for an easy 755 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 2: read pass. 756 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: He's such a good coach. 757 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 2: Now he's in his back, He's really good. And that 758 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 2: was another game where Justin Jefferson was shut down. Right, 759 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 2: I think he had two catches total. 760 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson, Yeah, but like he still who says Jalen 761 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: Johnson's not top one hundred. 762 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 2: Sam Donald still had a great game, which is just like, Okay, 763 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 2: he's using all his weapons. And we haven't talked much 764 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 2: about TJ hockets are coming back for that offense. How 765 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 2: big of a deal that was. So Yeah, I think 766 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 2: they're a better team. Like you just said, the number, 767 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 2: I agree with. It does feel right, makes sense. Like 768 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 2: Kyler was a dog, He's actually been pretty profitable in 769 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 2: these type of spots, especially when it's above a field goal. 770 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 2: But I do think that they're gonna struggle against his 771 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 2: Vikings defense and offensively, I just trust his Vikings team 772 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 2: be able to move the ball, especially against a Cardinals 773 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 2: team that we've seen this season, like they run that zone. 774 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 2: They make it really tough to score in the red zones. 775 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 2: But when they go against really good coaching that can 776 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 2: scheme things up, like we stuck with Kevin O'Connell, they'll 777 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 2: find holes. He's gonna find ways for them to begin 778 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 2: the end zone. They had been doing it all season. 779 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 2: So yeah, to me, numbers three four and a half. 780 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 2: It's three and a half. I'm gonna take that value 781 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 2: on the Vikings right now. 782 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 1: It did come down a tick. It was it for 783 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 1: so a little bit of money came in on the 784 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: on the Cardinals there at four and moved down to 785 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: three and a half. But I think I agree with you, 786 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: not a contest play if it's if you have to 787 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: bet it, bet the Vikings. The next game Tennessee at Washington. 788 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: It's at five and a half. So frustrating. This was 789 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: at seven right before we went on the air on Sunday. 790 00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 1: I wrote it down on our list to talk about 791 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 1: on Sunday, and while we were on the air, it 792 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: had moved from six and a half to six. I 793 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: wanted up for the record. We could clip it if 794 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: we have to. You said I was sharp. If you 795 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 1: remember saying that. Can I get confirmation. 796 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you were ahead of the movement. 797 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: That was a good call, was ahead of the move 798 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: I feel like I need a little bit more positive affirmation. 799 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,919 Speaker 1: You know, Matt Mitchell was yelling at me all morning, So. 800 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: Uh, you're a star, Chad. Don't worry about that. 801 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god, you didn't have to say that. That's 802 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: that's too much. Chad Milman is proud of himself. Now 803 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: it's down to five and a half. And look, I 804 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: think there are so many reasons to fade the commanders here. 805 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: We've hit the cliff cliff, the cliff Kingsbury second half 806 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 1: of the season where his teams have historically fallen off 807 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 1: the cliff. And you know, I love Bill Barnwell. If 808 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: you want more details on this, read Barnwell's column from 809 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: Monday on ESPN dot com. He went through this whole 810 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 1: me of reasoning that shows the cliff cliff. It's all circumstantial, 811 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 1: right Like in college, the cliff cliff happened because he 812 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: went from playing bad teams to playing good teams in 813 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: his conference. In the pros with Kyler, he went from 814 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: having Kyler to Kyler being consistently injured in the second 815 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: half of the season and not always having him, so 816 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: you can see the logic. But whatever the reason, it 817 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: always happens. And now Jaden Daniels is struggling. So part 818 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 1: of that has to be he's not making the right 819 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,399 Speaker 1: adjustments for his team and the personnel that he has, 820 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: and they continue to do the things that he might 821 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,959 Speaker 1: scheme up for the best players he has. Maybe Jaden 822 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 1: Daniels struggling because of his rib injury, the running game 823 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: is struggling. We have to ask ourselves, Simon, maybe I'm 824 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,320 Speaker 1: trying to convince you is a defense that is twenty 825 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:57,479 Speaker 1: first in past rush, twenty ninth in coverage, good enough 826 00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: to force Will Levis into making enough stakes. That's the 827 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 1: only reason we wouldn't bet the Titans is Will let us. 828 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is uh the Will Levis. You know, he 829 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 2: just throws deep like there is no other way to 830 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 2: describe but his is playing style. He's either getting sacked, 831 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 2: throwing a pick six, or throwing a perfect dime twenty 832 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 2: five yards downfield, like you know on a rope or 833 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 2: a touchdown. There there's no one between. So you just 834 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: said it. I honestly thought we would get to six 835 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 2: six and a half just because of what we talked 836 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 2: about where it's like the general public guy thought would think, Okay, 837 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 2: Will Love is coming off a win, easy spot to 838 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: fade him and take a Washington team that you know, 839 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 2: I said earlier in the year they were one of 840 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 2: my favorite teams to watch. But we talked that the 841 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: way he was playing, Jaye Daniels was looked like a 842 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,399 Speaker 2: guy who had never been hit before in the NFL. Right, 843 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,440 Speaker 2: he was so calm, cool in the pocket, took what 844 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 2: the defense would give him, either run it or have 845 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 2: some amazing play where he put the ball downfield. Now 846 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 2: he looks like someone that's like every time he's thinking 847 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 2: about taking the ball on he's just like, do I 848 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 2: want to break my ribs again? Is this worth the 849 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,479 Speaker 2: scramble here? And he's in between different reads And even 850 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 2: that game against Dallas, like he didn't get going until 851 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 2: they put him in the two minute drill offense, which 852 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 2: again I don't get why they don't just run all 853 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 2: the time. He looks so much more comfortable when they 854 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 2: spread everyone out and let him kind of dictate the 855 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 2: way the offense is going to run. Yeah, this is 856 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 2: I guess my hesitation is just the Will Loves factor. 857 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 2: Chad but you just now it's like playing let's just 858 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 2: play this number. This number should be closer to three 859 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 2: and a half. Four. This is not this washing team 860 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 2: they were early in the year. They don't deserve this 861 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 2: much respect that they're getting still from the bookmakers. So 862 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 2: unfortunately we missed the six. But I would still take 863 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:40,839 Speaker 2: this down to three and a half. 864 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so this was top two for my 865 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: executive decision. 866 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 2: Holy shit, pick one already, all right, I'm doing it. 867 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans exec decision plus five and a half. 868 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 2: The choice between the unthinkable and the impossible? Are you 869 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 2: av your honors? 870 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 3: Text to kill number? 871 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: Executive decision, let's freaking do it. Gonna play the number. 872 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: Houston at Jacksonville. You mentioned Jacksonville was a wise guy 873 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: played here. The numbers come down. Look, if we were 874 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: betting every game, we would take the Jags. We are 875 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,760 Speaker 1: not betting every game. I'm having a hard time seeing 876 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 1: it with Mac Jones, even off a bye. This is 877 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 1: a dreadful, dreadful team. I know the number is too big. 878 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 1: I know Houston's struggling, but they did get Will Anderson back. 879 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: They did sack Will Levis eight times last week in 880 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 1: the first half or however many times it was. And 881 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: unlike will Levis, mac Jones is terrible throwing the ball downfield. 882 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: He has no redeeming qualities as a quarterback. So I'm 883 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:49,320 Speaker 1: struggling with this one. 884 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is understandable. It's honestly to me about playing 885 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 2: the number in this Jags team, how they've been historically 886 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 2: against Houston, right even when they had bad players and 887 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 2: bad quarters, and you know, they're one of the worst 888 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 2: teams on football. I mean even the Minshew days, it 889 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,919 Speaker 2: feels like they would play pretty well against this Houston team. 890 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 2: I could be miss risk for memering. But you know, 891 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 2: the number, like you said, has come down, So I'm 892 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 2: not going to force you to put it in check 893 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 2: because I did get the best of the number. And 894 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 2: it's like, I'm not going to force it, but can 895 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 2: I make it? Force it into the money line? Rob 896 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 2: and Robin like, can we please take the Jags on 897 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 2: the money line? Coach? Totally this defense, this this division 898 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 2: to me is totally wonky up in the air, where 899 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 2: every team has issues and red flags and things you 900 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 2: can kind of attack and expose. And right now, this 901 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 2: Houston team, you would think this would be the perfect 902 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 2: spot to them to get back on track. But we've 903 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 2: seen it now where CJ's is not great as a favorite, 904 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 2: he's just he just does not cover as he does 905 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 2: when he's a dog usually, So you know that's that's 906 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,760 Speaker 2: kind of been his his problem this season is he's 907 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,760 Speaker 2: a guy who you know, one play he'll look great 908 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 2: and have the perfect deep ball to Nico Collins and 909 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 2: the next one was like makes inexcusable picks in his 910 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 2: own territory with thirty seconds left in the half. It's 911 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 2: like he was more veteran like last year than he 912 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 2: has been this year. This year he's been more happy 913 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 2: feet panic, not really sinking into the offense, trusting where 914 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 2: that could because he's still taking a lot of hits 915 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 2: chat just like last year. So you know that does 916 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 2: wearing a player, especially someone into their second year. So, uh, 917 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 2: I get your hesitation here. It's not fun backing mac 918 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 2: Jones as a dog in this spot, but it is 919 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 2: really about playing this number. This number, I have a 920 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 2: closer to four. It's only five, kind of a dead 921 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 2: zone number. It's I'm not going to force you to 922 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 2: take this one. 923 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: I think I think that the Texans offensive line is 924 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: just so bad. Yeah, that he's uncomfortable, and I think 925 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 1: schematically teams have changed what they're doing against him from 926 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 1: last year and that's also making him a comfortable still 927 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 1: a huge fantas CYJ. Stroud. But yeah, let's just not 928 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 1: even talk about this one anymore, because I do want 929 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: to talk about the Chargers the Falcons. I could not 930 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,320 Speaker 1: come up with a take here, and like, I wanted 931 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:08,840 Speaker 1: to love the Chargers, but I worry about their pressure 932 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: on Kirk Cousins and can they really do things that 933 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:17,320 Speaker 1: will make Kirk Cousins uncomfortable as a dog at home? 934 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: So I liked hearing that the wise guys were on 935 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,320 Speaker 1: the Chargers a little bit. Tell me what you're thinking 936 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:23,240 Speaker 1: and what you're hearing. 937 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 2: Now, did you watch that Charges game with the Ravens 938 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: last naar or no? 939 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 1: Every second? You know why? I tailed Sean Kerner, who 940 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 1: had will Disley over thirty nine and a half receiving 941 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: yards and through fifty eight minutes. In about thirty seconds, 942 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 1: he had thirty eight, three targets, three catches, including the 943 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,800 Speaker 1: first catch for eighteen yards, and Justin Herbert like was 944 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,399 Speaker 1: dropping back two seconds through downd Field was barely looking 945 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: for Disley, so I was just sweating him getting one 946 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 1: more dump off and he got it in the final drive. 947 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,760 Speaker 1: So yes, I watched every second of the game, and honestly, 948 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: I watched every second of the game and thought it 949 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 1: completely changed when JK. Dobbins went out and it puts 950 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 1: so much pressure on Herbert and the offensive line is 951 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 1: not very good in the middle of the line that 952 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 1: they couldn't really function. So I don't know if JK. 953 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: Dobbins is playing this week. I don't know what the 954 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: status is, but I thought that had an impact on 955 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 1: the game. 956 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 2: I agree. I thought Chargers though that you know, even 957 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 2: though they did lose, they showed me a lot of 958 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 2: knocks in the game where it's like, you know they 959 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,399 Speaker 2: are a playoff team that you know they run into 960 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 2: a jugging out like Lamar, if he's on, what are 961 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,840 Speaker 2: you gonna do? Like that was such a Lamar Derek Henry. 962 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:43,280 Speaker 2: That combo just kills you as the game goes along, 963 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,439 Speaker 2: and you know, early on I believe it was ten nothing. 964 00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, there's Chargers team, they're really good, 965 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 2: but they can't be kicking those field goals and we 966 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 2: go talk all the time Lamar is gonna get his eventually, 967 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 2: and you know him getting that touchdown right before half 968 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 2: and then getting the ball back to start the second half, 969 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 2: it's like he's such a killer with that. We talk 970 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 2: all the time. There's veteran quarterbacks that do that. You know, 971 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,720 Speaker 2: it's such a game changer getting that fourteen point swing. 972 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 2: So this Chargers team, to me, when we're looking at 973 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 2: this match, we gets Atlanta, They're like what Atlanta wants 974 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 2: to be. They're well coached, tough as hell, and consistent 975 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 2: defensively and offensively. And you know, the hesitation for me 976 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,959 Speaker 2: is just they're traveling in a short week, right, Isn't 977 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 2: that not ideal? Especially after playing that Ravens team against 978 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 2: you know, Atlanta team coming off their bye week, Like, 979 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,800 Speaker 2: I get the rest advantages towards them. So we've seen 980 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 2: earl here that you know, the public has come in 981 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 2: on Atlanta like that makes whole sense to me. But 982 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 2: you know, from my perspective, a lot of the pros 983 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 2: I've talked to, it's just like the Chargers are a 984 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,320 Speaker 2: better team. They're just being overlooked because they were just 985 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:52,280 Speaker 2: in a Monday night game and they just got Lamart, 986 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 2: Like It's no fault of that Chargers team. It's you know, 987 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 2: the big brother always beats a little brother, right, That's 988 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,400 Speaker 2: just how it is. So I think we're getting good 989 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 2: value here. I was honestly gonna make this, Simon says, 990 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 2: but a couple of books have already moved it to two. 991 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 2: But you can still get the one and a half. 992 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 2: I love this number on the Chargers team, that just 993 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 2: they are the more complete team. Reminds me a little 994 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,799 Speaker 2: bit when the Seahawks came in and played this Atlanta team. 995 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 2: This kind of matchup of you know, two teams that 996 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 2: we've seen in the Atlanta team, they're just not that 997 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:25,280 Speaker 2: good against really good teams or just teams that are above, 998 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:27,840 Speaker 2: you know, the bottom feeders of their own division. So, 999 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 2: you know, if if we can sell on this NFC 1000 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,720 Speaker 2: South against this team, then the charge that we believe 1001 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 2: it's gonna be the seven or six seed in the AFC, 1002 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 2: how do they not bounce back and win this game. 1003 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 2: This is a must win for this Chargers team, especially 1004 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 2: if they hope to get that back door seed, because 1005 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,439 Speaker 2: we've seen it like Denver's coming for them, like they're 1006 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 2: coming for that last remaining playoff spot. So yeah, I 1007 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 2: like this Chargers team being desperate here especially had a 1008 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 2: key number under two. Yeah, it's a great matchup. Do 1009 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:56,920 Speaker 2: you want to make it foxhol or do you have 1010 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:57,800 Speaker 2: another game in mind? 1011 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: No, I would do foxhol with the Chargers with me, Yeah, 1012 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll go foxhole because 1013 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: you know what, it scares me, and I do think 1014 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 1: that people are going to want to bet Atlanta. They're 1015 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 1: coming off a bye they're at home. It's a short week, 1016 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 1: huge travel for the Chargers, not even like middle of 1017 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 1: the country travel, like we're going deep South travel. You 1018 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 1: got to take that extra forty five minutes on the 1019 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: plane travel. So uh, it's a tough spot. So we've 1020 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 1: got a lot of things working against us. So yeah, 1021 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: let's foxhole it. Los Angeles Chargers minus two right now? Fantastic. 1022 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 2: You know me, regardless of what's going on, I'm a 1023 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,840 Speaker 2: foxhole guy. I commit to a team, I commit to 1024 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:37,399 Speaker 2: a city. I'm a foxhole guy. 1025 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: Oh God, Tampa Bay at Carolina, it's at six. Let's 1026 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:43,759 Speaker 1: move from six and a half to six. We know 1027 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 1: the wise guys are on it. We talked about it 1028 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: on Sunday. We leaned Panthers. I just wonder can we 1029 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 1: go back to the well, Like, can the Panthers at 1030 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 1: plus six be in our contest? Forget about betting them. 1031 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,839 Speaker 1: We got to bet them. We like the number, we 1032 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: like the spot. We think it's still too much tilted 1033 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: towards Tampa Bay. But can we put him in the contest? 1034 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 2: Uh? I would even if it was five and a half, 1035 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 2: I could force us to put it in. I just 1036 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: we saw last week with this Carolina team, like there, 1037 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 2: it feels like their offense has really figured things out. 1038 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 2: They're kind of inner groove here. And you know, obviously 1039 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,799 Speaker 2: Bryce Young was out of this world good last week. 1040 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 2: We saw the crazy numbers. He was like not perfect 1041 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 2: against the blitz, but just about perfect against it. Like 1042 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 2: he always made the right read, which you know, that 1043 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 2: was why he was drafted where he was at he 1044 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 2: was Apparently he was like a football genius and that 1045 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:41,960 Speaker 2: was one of the things they fell in love with that, 1046 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 2: Like this guy was so good at reading defense and 1047 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,919 Speaker 2: picking things up, and we hadn't seen that for about 1048 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 2: a year and a half. And whatever's changed for him 1049 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 2: sitting out and be on the sideline and him embracing 1050 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,680 Speaker 2: it it's worked. I mean, his last three games, his 1051 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 2: last three covers, Like we've all seen it. So I'm 1052 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:00,319 Speaker 2: with you, it's a little scary because it's like we 1053 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,080 Speaker 2: we've been riding these guys and we're gonna go back 1054 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 2: for one more. But it really is just about this 1055 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 2: match with Tampa that we've seen it. Tampa, they're they're 1056 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:10,399 Speaker 2: a good team. We know they're better obviously with Mike 1057 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 2: Mike Evans back, but they're not the team that you 1058 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 2: know they just blow out the Giants and they just 1059 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,320 Speaker 2: they don't do that right. They usually keep keep games 1060 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 2: pretty damn close. That's what their m has been, especially 1061 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,880 Speaker 2: since Baker's been there, and this divisional game and this 1062 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 2: matchup them on the road. We like Carolina at home, 1063 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,239 Speaker 2: like that's we've always joked about. But Carolina has just 1064 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 2: been better with Bryce Shawn at home. Uh, in these 1065 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,960 Speaker 2: outdoor matchup. I mean even last year, going back to 1066 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 2: one of our favorite bets was Carolina Evernce that Houston 1067 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 2: team and it was outdoors and I remember Houston was 1068 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 2: getting all the love and somehow Carolina pulled the upset. 1069 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 2: It's just the type of team they are where it's 1070 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 2: like they're for some reason better at home, especially as 1071 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 2: a dog. And this this is no different. This is 1072 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 2: another game where we're definitely gonna force this one in 1073 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 2: the money line around Robin Jeez. We've got like. 1074 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 1: The Colts and if we can get the good number 1075 00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 1: the Steelers but also the Jet Tennessee the Chargers traveling 1076 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,840 Speaker 1: potentially injured Carolina. Now we're getting back to our roots 1077 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 1: and look forgetting any analysis. If we were just looking 1078 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 1: at public perception and the number, it'd be a no brainer. 1079 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 1: Bucks coming off of a blowout win Baker ballin Panthers. 1080 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,360 Speaker 1: Still Losers played well, but it's still Bryce Young in 1081 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 1: the perception of that, So it makes sense that we're 1082 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:41,000 Speaker 1: talking about it. I just don't like it. La Rams 1083 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,279 Speaker 1: at New Orleans New Orleans plus three. This one's ticked 1084 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: up a little bit plus three. You like this one 1085 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 1: with the Saints on Sunday. I don't know if we're 1086 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: still feeling that way. You and I have vastly different 1087 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,760 Speaker 1: opinions on the Rams. On the Rams and the Eagles 1088 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 1: last week, and my issue with the Rams, and I'm 1089 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 1: sort of supporting the Saints. I'm not saying I want 1090 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 1: to do it is I think their offensive line is terrible, 1091 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: even healthy, they just they they've been wildly inconsistent in 1092 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: protection and overall on offense. We saw it against the Dolphins, 1093 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 1: we saw it against the Patriots, both of those things. 1094 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: Bad offensive line play, inconsistent execution against the Eagles. Like, 1095 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 1: does our opinion change now that the Rams have lost 1096 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 1: so badly? McVeigh on the road as a favorite off 1097 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 1: a loss twenty seven, nineteen to three, Like it feels 1098 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 1: like a better spot for the Rams, which could be 1099 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:42,320 Speaker 1: why it's ticked up. 1100 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, coming to my old thought was that the Rams 1101 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 2: have struggled against the run. And I know that sounds 1102 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 2: like a weird way to back the Eagles a previous speak, 1103 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 2: but I thought the Rams were going to move the 1104 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 2: ball against he was defense and that they would have 1105 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 2: a lead and they would have to you know, not 1106 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,479 Speaker 2: that though the Eagles stop running ball. But I feel 1107 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 2: like that was gonna be the game changer that once 1108 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 2: I got a lead, Eagles be pressing having to pass 1109 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 2: the ball, Barye. That's what the Eagles don't want to do. 1110 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 2: The Rams, man, their their defense is way worse against 1111 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:10,439 Speaker 2: the run that even I thought, and that's what the 1112 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 2: Saints want to do. They want to run the ball, 1113 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 2: and we always talk about that's what their identity has 1114 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 2: been like when they were being great early in the season, 1115 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 2: it was because they ran the ball and they could 1116 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 2: set up play action putting the ball downfield. And that's 1117 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 2: really been what the the key to the success has 1118 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 2: been for this Saints team this year. So yeah, I 1119 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 2: don't feel as strongly as I do it back because 1120 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 2: what you just said, like the Rams, this is this 1121 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 2: is for their season now, like this is it this 1122 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,960 Speaker 2: If they lose this, they know that they're playoffs, it's all, 1123 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 2: it's totally over. I mean, it already might be over. 1124 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 2: But I get that that's why this numbers kicked up, right, 1125 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:47,800 Speaker 2: I think the public and the pros are and look 1126 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 2: from that standpoint of you know, I think the Rams 1127 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 2: are still a better team. They're still healthy offensively. If 1128 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:56,240 Speaker 2: it turns into a shootout, who would you rather have 1129 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 2: Stafford or Derek Carr. So I totally get their perspective 1130 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 2: of this game in this matter, But it really is 1131 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,919 Speaker 2: to me, comes down to what the Saints team wants 1132 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 2: to do. Run the ball. And you know, they might 1133 00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 2: have found something last week with Taysom Hill, like that 1134 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 2: that there is always a point where they put him 1135 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 2: in until he gets hurt. And we don't know if 1136 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 2: this week we will get hurt. But when he is running, 1137 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 2: that switch up is pretty deadly. And we just seen 1138 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: the Eagles the way they just ran down this RAMS 1139 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,840 Speaker 2: team's throat, like you can make huge holes. They don't 1140 00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 2: have an Aaron Donald in that middle that really can 1141 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 2: give you any type of fits to run the ball 1142 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:32,040 Speaker 2: against this Rams team. So that's my perspective of the Jets, Like, 1143 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 2: am I going to make this one of our five chat? 1144 00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:34,959 Speaker 2: And I probably won't force it in there. 1145 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 1: We still got a couple of games to talk about 1146 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 1: that I feel pretty good about, okay, including the Eagles 1147 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 1: at Baltimore. 1148 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 2: It's Baltimore, gentlemen, the gods will not save you. 1149 00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:48,440 Speaker 1: Baltimore's not a three point favorite after they'll win over 1150 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 1: the Chargers last night. It's gone up from two and 1151 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 1: a half to three. Lamar as last night favorite of 1152 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: three or lass or a dog twenty six and six 1153 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: in the regular season against the spread. So the questions 1154 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: that we have to ask ourselves, do we think the 1155 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 1: Ravens defense improved? Do we think they just got lucky 1156 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 1: that JK. Dobbins didn't play in the second half. Do 1157 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: we think the Eagles are potentially overvalued because of what 1158 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 1: Saquon did? Like I thought they did to the Rams 1159 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 1: exactly what they're great at. They rushed the passer, they 1160 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 1: ran the ball, They dominated at the line of scrimmage. 1161 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 1: What I will say about the Eagles if we're comping 1162 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,440 Speaker 1: to last night, is that there are a couple of 1163 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:38,480 Speaker 1: times where Quentin Johnston couldn't make the play. AJ Brown 1164 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 1: will make that play against a relatively weak Ravens secondary. 1165 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:50,280 Speaker 1: This was my other choice for executive decision, playing the 1166 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 1: Eagles plus three. 1167 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the move here though, is just if 1168 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 2: you're going to take the Eagles, I think the money 1169 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,680 Speaker 2: lines a move, not the plus three. And if you're 1170 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 2: taking the Ravens, obviously shop round you can find maybe 1171 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 2: still find that two and a half. But that's decided 1172 01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 2: to be on with this Ravens team is you know 1173 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 2: what is Lamar twenty one to one straight up against NFC. 1174 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 2: He's just dominated where it's like, you know, even when 1175 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,720 Speaker 2: it doesn't make sense and you're like, Okay, the Ravens 1176 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 2: aren't as good as they've been in previous years. We 1177 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,800 Speaker 2: expected to take a step back. They just haven't. I mean, 1178 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 2: he when he is going offensively, Lamar is just he's 1179 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 2: an MVP level players. So the hesitation here for me 1180 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 2: is just this Eagles team, like we just said, they 1181 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 2: are very young on the defense, This is a type 1182 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 2: of quarterback that would give them problems, would give them issues. 1183 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 2: They win this, I mean them in Detroit, you might 1184 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: as well pencil in for the NFC Championship game. I 1185 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 2: mean it would be all time smoke blown up their 1186 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 2: ass if they can pull this one off. So I 1187 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 2: get that perspective. I wanted to be on the Eagles 1188 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 2: as well. But it's the Lamar the two and a 1189 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 2: half where I'm having Paul's just because of that stat 1190 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 2: from Van where it's like if you get him under 1191 01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 2: three is a favorite, stop overthinking it. You just take it. 1192 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,480 Speaker 2: And even last night I was kicking myself where it's like, 1193 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 2: why did I overthink this and take that Chargers team? 1194 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 2: You had the Mark two and a half. You just 1195 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 2: take it, you don't think about it. He's just he's 1196 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,480 Speaker 2: a cash cow in this exact spot. But this Eagles 1197 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 2: team is good enough. We just talked about, like offensively defensively, 1198 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 2: they can beat this team. They can keep up with points. 1199 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 2: So to me, that's I'm not here for pushes. I'd 1200 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 2: rather take the Eagles money line had them win this 1201 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 2: game out right in a late field goal. 1202 01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 1: The Buffalo Bills are seven point favorites over the San 1203 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:38,000 Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine ers. You have the wise guys betting 1204 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: on the Bills here. I just thought the number was moving. 1205 01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 1: The numbers moved up. I thought it was moving because 1206 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 1: we still don't know about brock Purty. We don't know 1207 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,560 Speaker 1: about Nick Bosa, we don't know about Trent Williams. Like, 1208 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 1: why why would we play the Niners in this spot? 1209 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily feel great playing the Bills until I 1210 01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: know about brock Purty. 1211 01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the pros of the Bills. And when 1212 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:00,880 Speaker 2: I like about the Bills here is just the fact 1213 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 2: that they're one of the best running teams in football 1214 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,840 Speaker 2: against fogn Iris team that just can't stop the run. 1215 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 2: I mean, they clearly have some issues right now defensively, 1216 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 2: and the biggest one is the run. Like last year, 1217 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 2: you know they could kind of cover it up because 1218 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 2: they had such a good D line. They're just not 1219 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 2: the same D line this season, and we've kind of 1220 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 2: seen that pop up where it's like, you know, last 1221 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:20,959 Speaker 2: year they would have leads and they could wear teams 1222 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,919 Speaker 2: out and they were had fresh legs. Defensively, they don't 1223 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:26,040 Speaker 2: have that, Like their defense is gonna be out there 1224 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,520 Speaker 2: a lot, they're gonna be worn down. And this Bills team, 1225 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 2: they're just so good. We've seen Josh Allen is a 1226 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,640 Speaker 2: big favorite at home. He just dominates teams like this 1227 01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 2: in this exact spot. So, yeah, prime time Sunday night game, 1228 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:41,520 Speaker 2: it really is Josh Allen versus the backup quarterback of 1229 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. I might have to bully chat 1230 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 2: and putting this one the contest at six and a half, 1231 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:49,320 Speaker 2: it's like, come on, that's an insane, insane number to 1232 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 2: get right now in this Bills team at home in 1233 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 2: this spot against a foreign irison, like we just said, 1234 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:57,000 Speaker 2: they might be once again without Perty and Bosa in 1235 01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,120 Speaker 2: this matchup against the MVP of football right now and Josh, 1236 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:01,600 Speaker 2: So it's a good matchup. 1237 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:02,840 Speaker 1: For the I would have no problem with the Bills 1238 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:04,960 Speaker 1: at six and a half in the contest without Purty, 1239 01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 1: like we were comfortable with the Packers. That's what the 1240 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 1: number landed at for the Packers. Almost that he got 1241 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: up there and like the Bills are better than the Packers. 1242 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and this, you know, so I don't know 1243 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,439 Speaker 1: a problem with that at all. But the Monday night 1244 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 1: game Denver is a five and a half point favor 1245 01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 1: over Cleveland. Look, I have an overwhelming urge to fade 1246 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: Jamis because he played well in back to back games 1247 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:36,880 Speaker 1: straight up off a win. He's thirteen seventeen and two 1248 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: against the spread. Yea one in five against the spread 1249 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one, Thank you, Evan. It is also 1250 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:47,440 Speaker 1: a great urge to fade bo Nicks and the speaking Broncos. 1251 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:50,920 Speaker 1: But I think my urge to fade Jamis is greater 1252 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 1: because aren't the Broncos kind of like the Lions in 1253 01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 1: some respects? Like what we love about the Lions. They 1254 01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:05,920 Speaker 1: are super physical, they don't make mistakes, they have great coaching. 1255 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:10,240 Speaker 1: You know what. The Broncos are first in past block 1256 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:14,840 Speaker 1: win rate, meaning they're super fast at hedding off the 1257 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 1: ball and protecting the passer. Their fifth in run block 1258 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:23,440 Speaker 1: win rate, same third in pass rush win rate, meaning 1259 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:27,200 Speaker 1: their defensive linemen get off the ball and get an 1260 01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 1: edge faster than the players they are playing against, they 1261 01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:36,920 Speaker 1: don't make mistakes. Bo Nicks has two interceptions since September fifteenth, 1262 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: and they have great coaching. So why don't I love 1263 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:41,840 Speaker 1: the Broncos here? 1264 01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 2: I think it's just because the number, right, we like? 1265 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:47,400 Speaker 2: I agree with you. When I first saw this, I 1266 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 2: felt it felt a little high. I'll be honest, It's like, 1267 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 2: why is this not three and a half? 1268 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:51,120 Speaker 4: Four? 1269 01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:53,280 Speaker 2: But I feel like you just broke it down. Why 1270 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 2: it's not why it is closer to six? Because of 1271 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,560 Speaker 2: this Denver defense and because the way Bonux has been playing. 1272 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 2: And yeah that I didn't know those James stats. That's 1273 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:05,840 Speaker 2: insane how bad he's been after wins. So yeah, I 1274 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:07,520 Speaker 2: was I was kind of like you, I really haven't 1275 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 2: had a read on this one. I haven't done much 1276 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,000 Speaker 2: with it. I feel like now I'm gonna be end 1277 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 2: up on Denver. Like You're right, this is a nice 1278 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 2: spot for Denver, not just defensively but offensively. I think 1279 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 2: they'll be able to move the ball as well. So yeah, 1280 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:20,840 Speaker 2: gim me Denver minus five and a half. 1281 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 1: I love Denver here. Love it feels like a great spot, 1282 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 1: all right.

Any biggest bets yet. 1328 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:38,840 Speaker 2: Uh honestly only because of Thanksgiving. I've been a little 1329 01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:40,840 Speaker 2: Joe public on where I've really put a lot of 1330 01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:43,760 Speaker 2: my money early on here into this Thanksgiving slate. So 1331 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 2: uh yeah, the no doubt the biggest bet for me 1332 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,280 Speaker 2: so far as green Bay minus three, like that one 1333 01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:51,360 Speaker 2: I've just as soon as I number went to three, 1334 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:53,599 Speaker 2: It's like, when I got this call, that's what I'm 1335 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,240 Speaker 2: about to go do. It's just go camer that number 1336 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 2: at the books where they move it back up. And yeah, 1337 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:02,400 Speaker 2: obviously it's it's born in Chalky. But if you're if 1338 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 2: you're just someone that just likes doing the money line 1339 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:09,719 Speaker 2: parlays Green Bay Packers money line with Detroit's money line, 1340 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,360 Speaker 2: I think it's like minus one ten minus one fifteen 1341 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 2: partly together. That's fun. It's like I kind of I 1342 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:18,599 Speaker 2: kind of like that if if you're scared off by 1343 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:21,800 Speaker 2: the big number of Detroit. Obviously I'm not. So if 1344 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,960 Speaker 2: I'm I've made personally I'm a crazy person. I just 1345 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 2: parlayed the minus three with the minus ten. So do 1346 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:28,920 Speaker 2: whatever you want, people, But if you if you you 1347 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 2: far are scared about that big number, there are ways 1348 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:32,400 Speaker 2: around that Detroit Lines minus ten. 1349 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 1: Scoot throughlet when all hope is lost, all this left 1350 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: is relief. 1351 01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 2: Let's play scoot Roulette. 1352 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:46,559 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Denver Broncos. 1353 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:48,599 Speaker 2: Wow, there we go. 1354 01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:51,720 Speaker 1: Okay, how about you, I'll fuck it. 1355 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:55,880 Speaker 2: I'll go chalk with no No. I gotta I gotta win, man, 1356 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 2: I've been slipping.

Okay. 1358 01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:02,519 Speaker 2: I was honestly to go to the Bills, but I 1359 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 2: don't want to take the risk of taking that bad 1360 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:05,280 Speaker 2: number at seven. 1361 01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,679 Speaker 1: Before we get out of here, let's bring in Director 1362 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 1: of Research Evan Abrams for the final word. Evan, don't 1363 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 1: make us sad. The last word with Evan Abrams, we're. 1364 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 3: Finished talking Happy Thanksgiving boys, and all thirty two teams 1365 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:25,680 Speaker 3: in action. So we've got a lot to go through here, 1366 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:29,240 Speaker 3: so let me just pound through this. NFL underdogs is 1367 01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 3: six plus points, are thirty six, twenty three and two 1368 01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 3: against the spread this season. They are actually nineteen and 1369 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:36,920 Speaker 3: forty three on the money line. You'd be up a 1370 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:41,040 Speaker 3: sixteen percent return on investment betting those dogs. Those nineteen 1371 01:10:41,080 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 3: wins through a twelve weeks is the most in the 1372 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 3: NFL since two thousand and four. So big dogs barking, 1373 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 3: and we're going to go the opposite here because it 1374 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:54,080 Speaker 3: is Thanksgiving. All three home teams right now are the 1375 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:58,120 Speaker 3: public side on Thursday and even oh actually no, the 1376 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 3: Raiders are on Friday. So all Thursday public sides are 1377 01:11:01,680 --> 01:11:05,360 Speaker 3: five hundred. Ats are better every year since twenty fourteen 1378 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 3: and eleven of the past twelve years on Thanksgiving, and 1379 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 3: at that seventy four percent threshold, they are nine to 1380 01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:14,720 Speaker 3: zero straight up and against the spread in the bet 1381 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:17,680 Speaker 3: Labs database, So keep an eye on those bet percentages. 1382 01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:19,479 Speaker 3: Now let's go into a few of these games. So 1383 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:22,599 Speaker 3: the Bears are in a very unique spot. It is 1384 01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 3: very rare to have an overtime game on Sunday and 1385 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,240 Speaker 3: have to play on Thursday, especially the fact that they're 1386 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 3: going to have to play at noon. Last twenty years, 1387 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:33,760 Speaker 3: teams to play off an overtime game and then play 1388 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 3: on three days rest or less six and twenty straight up, 1389 01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:41,479 Speaker 3: three and twenty three against the spread. Absolutely terrible numbers, 1390 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 3: really difficult to overcome. So see if they can cover 1391 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:49,080 Speaker 3: the ten on Thanksgiving. Love that stat, Evan, love it crazy. 1392 01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 3: So now let's talk specifics here. So favorites in night 1393 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:55,720 Speaker 3: games on Thanksgiving, which would be the Packers on Thanksgiving 1394 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:58,360 Speaker 3: this year thirteen and four against the spread since they 1395 01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:02,560 Speaker 3: started the three game holidays six and Simon alluded to 1396 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:06,600 Speaker 3: this earlier thirty two temperature or colder freezing temperatures in 1397 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 3: franchise history. Dolphins are eleven and twenty eight straight up. 1398 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 3: They've lost their last nine games in those cold temperatures. 1399 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 3: Ryan Tannehill beat the Steelers in twenty thirteen, is their 1400 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:20,479 Speaker 3: last win in freezing tempts. Two more for you as 1401 01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:22,640 Speaker 3: a favorite of six points or more. The Chiefs this 1402 01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 3: year six and oh straight up, five and one against 1403 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 3: the spread in those games. The fact that Kansas City 1404 01:12:30,160 --> 01:12:33,479 Speaker 3: is undefeated straight up and defeated against the spread as 1405 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 3: a six plus point favorite. Only one team has even 1406 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 3: played six plus games in that spot. In the first 1407 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:43,479 Speaker 3: eleven weeks, it had no covers, the ninety seven Packers. 1408 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:47,919 Speaker 3: It has been a long long time, an extremely unique spot. 1409 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:49,760 Speaker 3: I actually looked this one up and I'm going to 1410 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,479 Speaker 3: talk Sunday games here because it is the biggest game 1411 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 3: of the weekend Baltimore and Philly, and this situation actually 1412 01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,599 Speaker 3: happened last night with Jim Harbaugh. But Nick Siriani has 1413 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 3: never faced Lamar Jackson before, and Lamar Jackson's ninety five 1414 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 3: career starts he has faced a coach for the first 1415 01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:09,759 Speaker 3: time forty four times. He is thirty seven and seven 1416 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:13,960 Speaker 3: straight up against those coaches the first time he faces them. 1417 01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:17,160 Speaker 3: A very difficult situation with Baltimore. See if it happens 1418 01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:19,840 Speaker 3: again next week. And then finally, I'll leave you with 1419 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 3: a Thanksgiving note And I looked this up earlier. Insane. 1420 01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 3: So the Lions and Cowboys play every year on Thanksgiving. 1421 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,880 Speaker 3: They haven't gone two and oh straight up and two 1422 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,759 Speaker 3: and oh against the spread as a group since nineteen 1423 01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:36,839 Speaker 3: ninety four, so we will see if they can continue 1424 01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 3: that streak and one of the teams somehow fails as 1425 01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 3: they always tend to do. 1426 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 1: Wow, I think we believe the Lions will win straight 1427 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 1: up in against the spread and the Cowboys could lose 1428 01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:50,920 Speaker 1: and lose against the spread.
