It's a cash toto. We see most 5 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,319 Speaker 2: gamblers when they go to gamble, they go to wind. 6 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 2: That's incredible.

It's week four. 10 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 2: I'm your host, Chris Raybond, joined as always by my guy, 11 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister, Degenerate Nation, Stucky Stuck, what's going on? 12 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 3: What's up? Brother? Crazy crazy? Week three? From a betting perspective, 13 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: middle middling week for me one Thursday slight slight profits 14 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 3: Sunday and then have my worst call maybe all year, 15 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 3: with the Eagles plus four, and I also had some 16 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 3: under looking to shake off. That call. Couldn't have been 17 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 3: more wrong than I really impressed with Dallas. We'll get 18 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: to those teams later on, but Sunday was so exciting. 19 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 3: I mean, for me, as a Ravens fan and as 20 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 3: the biggest Justin Tucker fan in the world, a sixty 21 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 3: six yard off the bar and in is as exciting 22 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 3: of a field goal as you'll ever see in the NFL. 23 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 3: We both had our totals. We had our money one 24 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 3: underdog parlay again, I went one and two. You went 25 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: to and one. The funny thing is the one game 26 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 3: I won, I didn't like my bet, and that was 27 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 3: the Dolphins. Talk about a sweat. I also had the 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 3: under which got busted on that two point conversion. One 29 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: other two games of Colts I'd play again. I didn't 30 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: hate that play. And same with the Jags. I mean 31 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: the last time I played the Jags, Yes, I was 32 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: very disappointed with the play, but they had a ninety 33 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 3: four percent cover rate the end of the third quarter 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: and they run a flea flicker that gets picked off. 35 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 2: Who's their coach? 36 00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 3: Who? Yeah? 37 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: Who might what coach might lose the ninety four person 38 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: that cover rate in a quarter? 39 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 3: A battle of just coaching an aptitude. I mean, I 40 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: had Cliff Kingsbury kicking that field goal off the end of. 41 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: Oh I got you. I literally that was like my 42 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 2: only tweet during game time. I think I was just 43 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: like lmao qliff. I laughed out loud so hard when 44 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: Jamal Agnu for the second straight week, return to kick 45 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: for a touchdown. 46 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: But just like weeks one and two, who cares. We're 47 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 3: on the week four. Let's get into it. 48 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 2: All right before we kick things off here, three quick reminders. First, 49 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: if you plan to bet on any sport ever and 50 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: you still haven't downloaded the award winning Action Network app, 51 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: what are you doing.

And 54 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: most importantly, it lets you track every bet that you make. 55 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 2: Number two, if you need to reference our Sunday six 56 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: Pack picks anytime, all you have to do is use 57 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: the Action Network app and follow Sunday six Pack because 58 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: we use that account to track those picks there they're 59 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 2: posted every Friday. And finally, in case you haven't checked 60 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 2: out our other episodes here on the Action Network podcast, 61 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: our Action teammates Brandon Anderson and Raheem Palmer do shorter 62 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: NFL betting shows every Monday and Friday, which cover betting recaps, 63 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: Monday night football previews, look at lines, and basically anything 64 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 2: that Stucky and I didn't touch on here. Raheem and 65 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: Brandon crush it, so definitely check them out. Oh and 66 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 2: I got a shout out my dude, Brandon a sire. 67 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: So I actually got to hang out with Sean Kerner 68 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: for his birthday over the weekend and one of his 69 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: boys listened to our pod. He's a big fan, so 70 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 2: shouts to Brandon. He said something about our pot is, 71 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: which is I think would be a compliment to both 72 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: of us. He said, your picks are a lot more 73 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: disgusting than mine, but you're winning him over, like you're 74 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: always convincing him to go that way. So like I 75 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: was like, oh, yeah, I love that because I hate 76 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: making disgusting picks. But I know Stucky will also love 77 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: that because he loves making disgusting picks. 78 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love doing it. Took me a while to 79 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: get over the hurdle the college. It's still but NFL 80 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 3: if I'm getting over seven and I like the spot 81 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: and the number click click click. Yeah, So we're gonna 82 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: get We're gonna get to some of those tonight. 83 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: Yeah you worry, Oh yeah, and yeah. Let's get into 84 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: it with the Action Network podcast presented by bet MGM. 85 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: It's week four. Let's get to Thursday Night Football. It's 86 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 2: not the best game, but it's the only game tonight. 87 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: Let's bet Thursday Night Football. 88 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: All right. 89 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 2: So we got the Cincinnati Bengals fresh off that. I 90 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 2: don't even know if we should call it an upset 91 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: at this point because Pittsburgh looking kind of shaky, but 92 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: you know the upset in Hindsfield of the Steelers Jaguars 93 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 2: coming off same old, same o getting beat by double digits. 94 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: Seven and a half is the lineup BETMGM, the official 95 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: odds provider of the pod. The total forty five and 96 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: a half stuck. What are your thoughts on this game 97 00:04:58,360 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: and why should we bet the Bengals? 98 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 3: I just bet over. It's a primetime game. All the 99 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 3: primetime games go over. I think broadtime games are eight 100 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 3: and one now to the over on the year. I'm 101 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 3: sure there will be some regression coming in that department. 102 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: But Jags are playing fast. I don't know why, because 103 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 3: they're at a talent deficiency. They should be playing slower. 104 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 3: Bengals are playing slower for what it's worth. But you know, 105 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,799 Speaker 3: Jacks are doing a couple of things. Well, they're running 106 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 3: the ball decently well. The problem is the Bengals run 107 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 3: defense has been great this year. They're only allowing three 108 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 3: point three yards per carry. That's fourth in the NFL. 109 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 3: The Jags run defense actually pretty decent compared to what 110 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 3: I thought it would be coming into the year. But 111 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: they're obviously vulnerable against the pass. They don't generate much pressure. 112 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 3: Their secondary is very weak. They just traded CJ. Henderson 113 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: wasn't anything great anyway, but then he missed last week. 114 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 3: But secondary can be spread out and exploited. I'm assuming 115 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: that's what's gonna happen with Burrow. You know, Trevor Lawrence 116 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: did some things last week to show me that he's improving. 117 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 3: Right He had a Brewer you know, his first start, 118 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 3: you can throw it out when he's a rookie, second 119 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 3: start out a face of Fangio defense that's just been 120 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: suffocating everyone. And then last week he gets a little 121 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 3: easier defense than if you look at as like adjusted 122 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: completion percentage, there were some progress there. Looked a little 123 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 3: more comfortable. But you know, this is a rookies are 124 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: still oh to nine against the spread this year where 125 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 3: they don't play each other. Mac Jones beat Wilson and 126 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: that was the only cover. And now this is a 127 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 3: short week on the road. You know, for a rookie 128 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 3: quarterback and a coach, that's just not impressing. Either of us. 129 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 3: You know, Thursday Night Football home favorites have had the 130 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 3: edge in the pass like they are about fifty six 131 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: percent against the spread since two thousand and three. 132 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: The Bengals do have a. 133 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 3: Couple concerning injuries in the secondary. Jesse Bates is out, 134 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: a Wuzia is out. Are the Jags a team that 135 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: can exploit that? You know, maybe for a backdoor I 136 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 3: make this lie. I actually show a little bit of 137 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: value in the Jags, Like, but I'm close to seven, 138 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 3: not enough to play it, thank god. Plus I'd look 139 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 3: for reasons not to play Thursday Night Football. The injuries 140 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: and the secondary for the Bengals. You know, Bates is 141 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 3: a really good player, and the corner depth is questionable. 142 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: Now with Lawrence looking a little better and me thinking 143 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 3: that Barrow is gonna have success throwing the ball kept 144 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 3: me off the under here, although I would lean that 145 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 3: way a bit. Ultimately, I think this is just a 146 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 3: great teaser piece. So tease the Bengals down from seven 147 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 3: and a half to one and a half. They should 148 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 3: find a way to win this game. Ultimately, it comes 149 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 3: down to the Bengals defense is playing really well this 150 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 3: year and Barrow is obviously much better right now than 151 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence and the Bengals offense overall is as well. 152 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: So at home short week as a favorite against a 153 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback and a coach that's the Bengals. If this 154 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: was under seven, I would take I would look at 155 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 3: potentially taking them too high for me to take the Bengals. 156 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 3: But it's a perfect teaser piece coming down across seven 157 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 3: and three. 158 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love the teaser. The Bengals defense, they're right 159 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 2: there with Carolina. Is these two defenses that kind of 160 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: may enter that conversation of Okay, this is actually a 161 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: good that hasn't been the last few years at least. 162 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: The key for me in this game and the same 163 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 2: thing that kind of kept me off the Jags, well 164 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: besides Erbert Meyer, but the thing that maybe scared for 165 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 2: the Jags last week going against the Cardinals is because 166 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: the Bengals are kind of like the Cardinals. They both 167 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 2: blitzed a lot. The Bengals are seventh and blitz rate. 168 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 2: They blitzed thirty eight times already this year, according to 169 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: Pro Football Reference. Trevor Lawrence against the blitz eight of 170 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: twenty three, one touchdown, two picks, four point four yards 171 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 2: in attempt. He's been abysmal against, which makes. 172 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 3: Sense to you know, the rookie quarterback trying to slow 173 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 3: everything down and then you're getting blitz. It's hard to 174 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 3: process everything early on in your. 175 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 2: Career, especially if your coach doesn't know what the fuck he's 176 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: talking about. But Bengals number one in early down pass 177 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: success rate. Remember we like to filter out for early 178 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 2: downs because third downs a lot of luck involved penalties. 179 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: You know, you're sometimes you're playing the sticks, you give 180 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: up a fifty yard touchdown. You know, a lot of 181 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: things go go crazy on third down, but early downs 182 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: more repeatable. Bengals number one early down pass success rate, 183 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: number four early down run success rate on defense. So 184 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: you look at this Bengals team. They have enough big 185 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: time players with Burrow and Jamar Chase and Joe Mixon 186 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 2: to get the job done. And this Jaguars defense really 187 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: isn't going to give give them much of a fight. 188 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm with you. Tease the Bengals down. I 189 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 2: expect the Bengals to win sizably. So if I had 190 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: to take a side, even at the seven with the 191 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 2: hook seven and a half, I would still take the Bengals. 192 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: You look historically you mentioned stuck the favorites on Thursday night, 193 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: and if you actually filter out by favorites by seven 194 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: or more points, they are forty two and twenty since 195 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: two thousand and three against the spread sixty eight percent. 196 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: And we've talked about this. When you have the interior team, 197 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 2: it's really tough when you don't have those extra days 198 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 2: of preparation to figure out a way to beat expectations. 199 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 2: That's that's really what it comes down to. 200 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, scheme, you know, scheme to compensate for some of 201 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 3: your deficienc There's. 202 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 2: A handful of coaches that are good at that, and 203 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: you know, in any given week you'll see a couple 204 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: even surprise teams haveing just a really good scheme that week. 205 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 2: You know, big back to the Giants beating the Seahawks 206 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: last year late in the year. 207 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,239 Speaker 3: But you also are playing on Sunday and then playing Thursday, 208 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 3: and you have to travel in between there, which eats 209 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 3: into your preparation time as well. 210 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, because most of those favorites are home favorites, obviously 211 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: it's gonna it's more rare to be a minus seven 212 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: favorite on the road. That's pretty much the analysis Trevor 213 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: Lawrence sucks against the Blitz that we have seen nothing 214 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: to suggest that there are thirty to thirty one teams 215 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: better than the Jacksonville Jaguars right now. So Bengals tease 216 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: them down. Take the seven and a half if you want. 217 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 2: It's not my style, but I wouldn't argue with it. 218 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: All right, let's get into our pep talk. So for 219 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 2: today's Coaches pep Talk, our producer Matt Mitchell has actually 220 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: not chosen something from the film Blue Chips.

So this clip will fit 234 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: well to that. 235 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: Hey, what's up, playboy?

It was it was the trade of 244 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 2: of C. J. Henderson for like a you know, like 245 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 2: the thirty sixth best tight end in the NFL. But 246 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: I did promise Matt that we weren't going to have 247 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 2: a fifteen minute wire TANGI do. Let's have like a 248 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: seven minute wire TANGI. 249 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: That's fine, me say. 250 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 2: This one time.

I was gonna go with 258 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: snooping and nail gun like the season four I think 259 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 2: if anyone hasn't seen that first YouTube Omar Brother Mazone, 260 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 2: but also YouTube Snoop nail Gun or Snoop the Wire 261 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: nail Gun. 262 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: Hey guys, this is the show producer Matt Mitchell.

But I'll just leave you with 270 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: my favorite quote from The Wire. 271 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: I'll take any money if he giving it away. 272 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: And then we'll keep this going here at the Action 273 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: Network Podcast. Thanks for listening. 274 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 2: That was our coaches pep talk Erban Mayer still needs it. 275 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: Let's get into our week four to six pack Thursday 276 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 2: for Action. Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. For 277 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 2: everyone not familiar, what we do here is we give 278 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 2: three picks each for sides. We cannot pick the same side, 279 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: but we can be on opposite sides. Two points for 280 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 2: our first two, one point for our third, and then 281 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: we also get a point for our favorite total, which 282 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 2: we do in the next segment. I think for the 283 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: first time I have a lead on Stuck. I think 284 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 2: the one time I won, I came from behind, So 285 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: I just like my first early season lead. But it's 286 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 2: fourteen eleven. Probably would be tied if you hadn't been 287 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: to Jaguars twice. But deliver, you learn, and I got 288 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: the first pick this week, right, you have fourteen eleven 289 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 2: yep for the first pick of the week four Sunday 290 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 2: six pack. I am going with the Baltimore Ravens plus 291 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 2: one at the Denver Broncos. 292 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 3: It's Baltimore, gentlemen, the God will not save you. 293 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 2: I love this pick because look at who the Broncos 294 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 2: have played thus far. They played the Giants in week one, 295 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: they played the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week two, and then 296 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: they played the New York Jets in Week three. So 297 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: the Broncos have looked great. Teddy Bridgewater is playing great, 298 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: but we know absolutely nothing about the Denver Broncos. Why 299 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: because they've played nobody. I love the Bilo spot for Baltimore. 300 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: We know Baltimore can beat quality teams, even if it's ugly. 301 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 2: They beat the Chiefs in a crazy turn of events. 302 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: But I like Baltimore in this spot. You know they're 303 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: getting you know, Williams back. That's gonna help their run defense. 304 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: We know the Broncos are gonna want to run the football. 305 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: That's what they that's what they kind of do, run 306 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: the ball. Play defense, well, playing defense is great, and 307 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: they have a lot of talented pieces, but Lamar Jackson 308 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: throws that all out of the out of the window. 309 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: He's just gonna make off schedule plays that can beat 310 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 2: you in a way that Daniel Jones and Zaz Wilson 311 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 2: and Trevor Lawrence really aren't or they're not gonna make 312 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 2: enough mistakes. They're gonna make too many mistakes to overcome, 313 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 2: you know, if they do make a good playoff schedule. 314 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: And then on the other side, I just think that 315 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 2: the like the Broncos on offense, going against this Ravens 316 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: d they're gonna blitz The Broncos really haven't faced the 317 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: ferocious pass rush yet either, when you talk about the Giants, 318 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 2: when you talk about the Jags and the Jets. So 319 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 2: this is just a step up in competition. For the Broncos, 320 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: who I think if they started the year with almost 321 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 2: any other combination of teams where you didn't include like 322 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: three of these teams of these league worst teams, they 323 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: probably would be, you know, getting points right here. But 324 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: we got a situation where you're getting the Ravens getting points. 325 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: And I'm still at a point like I'm not you know, 326 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 2: there's some ugly picks that I really like, but I'm 327 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: at a point where I still see value on some 328 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 2: of these teams that I'm getting his underdogs that are 329 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 2: quality teams, and the Ravens, I still think they're a 330 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: quality team. Lamar Jackson in his career roteen and seven 331 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 2: against the spread on the road. Harbaugh twenty nine and 332 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 2: twenty one against the spread fifty eight percent as a 333 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: road underdog. So I love the Ravens, glove them down 334 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 2: to a pick them. I think they win this game. 335 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: I just I just don't trust Denver's strength to schedule. 336 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 2: Uh And you know, askby coming into the season, who 337 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 2: would have won this game. I've said the Ravens. Nothing 338 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 2: has dissuaded me from that. I would have loved if 339 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 2: they lost. I mean, I know you're a Ravens fan stuck. 340 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 2: But I would have loved if they lost to Detroit 341 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 2: only because I probably would have gotten even another half 342 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: point to a point. But Baltimore Ravens plus one at Denver. 343 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 3: You're not allowed to use Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh 344 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 3: against the spread trends with this game because Teddy Bridgewater 345 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 3: is thirty eight and fourteen against the career. Yeah, but 346 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 3: on the other road, he just covers every week no 347 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 3: matter what. 348 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, seventy three percent. 349 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 3: Against the spread in his career, thirty eight and fourteen 350 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: Teddy covers. Man, I make Baltimore slight favorite here there. 351 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 3: I actually prefer the under though. I mean Dever is 352 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 3: three note of the under. Their offense hasn't really exploded 353 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 3: and they've played you know, the Jags defense, the Jets defense. 354 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 3: They haven't played like the three best defenses in the NFL. 355 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 3: And you know they're not putting up thirty points it's played. 356 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 3: They play slower so to the Ravens. A lot of 357 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 3: runs I expect in this game. And here's the thing 358 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 3: with Denver. Bridgewaters numbers under pressure look great this year. 359 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 3: I mean, look at the defense as the secondariesit He's faced. 360 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: Jimmy Smith's now back for the Ravens, should get a 361 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 3: close to a full workload this year, so that the 362 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 3: secondary is now coming together. You mentioned Brandon Williams justin 363 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 3: Houston back Derek Wolf. I don't think he's gonna play 364 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 3: this year this week, but he'll be back soon too. 365 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 3: So the Ravens are gonna bring pressure. They can match 366 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 3: up with this defense. And look, if you look at 367 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 3: the two of the top three quarterbacks have taken the 368 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 3: most shots twenty yards downfield, Bridgewater and Lamar. But if 369 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 3: you look at this game, I think that's gonna significantly 370 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 3: change because one the whole premise of the Fangio defense 371 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 3: is to take away big plays. So I don't think 372 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 3: that there's gonna be You know, the Ravens played the Sheefs, 373 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 3: which is which statistically has the worst defense NFL run 374 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 3: pass whatever. You know, they played the Lions with a 375 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 3: bunch of rookies in their secondary that were missed assignments. 376 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 3: There were people running all over White Mark He's Brown 377 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 3: dropped seventeen touchdowns. They were taking a lot of defense 378 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 3: that's different against this Denver defense. And on the other side, 379 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 3: and I think Lamar will be under pressure here a 380 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 3: little bit on the other side of the ball with Denver. 381 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 3: When Handler's not on the field. If you look at 382 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 3: Teddy Bridgewater, it's Teddy check down again. So a lot 383 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 3: of the shots are him. Not only has he stretched 384 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 3: the field out, but they're taking a lot of Now 385 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 3: Judy is gone, Judy's out, Handler's out, So the speed 386 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 3: element of this offense is missing. So it's gonna be 387 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 3: a lot of run, a lot of short passes, rely 388 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 3: on the defense. Lamar's probably the wild card here. Maybe 389 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 3: Tucker Pit's another who knows an altitude, but he's gonna 390 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 3: hit this week. 391 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 2: He might break his own record. 392 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 3: It's sixty nine maybe, But yeah, So I mean, I 393 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 3: make Baltimore a slight favorite, so I don't necessarily disagree 394 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 3: with you. And we're gonna learn a lot about Denver 395 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 3: this week. But that Denver offense has been doing that much. 396 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 3: They lost two of their speediest receivers, and you know, 397 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: while the the defensive line of Baltimore is getting healthier, 398 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 3: Denver's two starting guards might be out this week. They 399 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 3: signed a couple guys from the practice squad. It looks like, 400 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: you know, rise Near and Glasgow are likely out. They 401 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 3: didn't practice today, so this this offense is pretty banged up, 402 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 3: so I like under forty five. Don't hate your pick, 403 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 3: all right. For my first pick and the second overall 404 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 3: pick of the Sunday six pack, it's time to get ugly, people, 405 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,239 Speaker 3: We're gonna get ugly right off the bat. I'm going 406 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: with the New York Football Jets plus seven and a 407 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 3: half at home against the Tennessee Titans. You're wearing Jets gear, 408 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 3: which I think is not a good sign because you 409 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 3: were Jags gear yes last week. 410 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 2: Kind of do the reverse jinks or is it just 411 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 2: the regular jinks? I don't know. Notice is Broadway Joe 412 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: not Broadway Zach? 413 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 3: All Right, Well, look, I wouldn't go below seven on 414 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 3: this if it's gonna keep dropping. But I assumed going 415 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 3: into this game, I was pretty confident AJ Brown was 416 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 3: not gonna play, which he's not. I don't think he's 417 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 3: officially been ruled out, but he has hamstring injury. And 418 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 3: then last week Coolio Jones doesn't play in the fourth quarter. 419 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: Rabel comes out and says he's managing his workload. I'm like, 420 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,959 Speaker 3: that's a bunch of bullshit. He's hurt, so then it 421 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 3: came out today, so you might see by the time 422 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 3: you listen to this, this line keep coming down. He didn't 423 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 3: practice that. I don't think they're gonna, like, why risk 424 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 3: hamstring injuries with your two star receivers against the Jets. 425 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 3: I don't think either played. It'd be shocked if either plays, so, 426 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 3: especially Julio Jones at his age and how fragile he is, 427 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: so I think both their star receivers are out. When 428 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: you look at the Jets, their defense is holding up 429 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 3: pretty well against the run. They got a pretty good 430 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 3: defensive line that can hold its own. I think that 431 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 3: they can at least not allow Derrick Henry to run 432 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: wild on them without too much help. Marcus may is out, 433 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: which hurts a little bit on the back end, but 434 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 3: that loss is neutralized by the fact that I'm pretty 435 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: sure that Brown and Jones are going to be out. 436 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: So you know, this Titans offense all of a sudden 437 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 3: becomes a lot less potent. It's also on the other 438 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 3: side of the ball. The Jets offense has been perfect, 439 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 3: just no doubt about it. But they've played statistically three 440 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 3: of the top five pass defenses in the NFL. Zach 441 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 3: Wilson at his first start on the road at Carolina 442 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: defense's playing well. Then you'd face a Belichick and a 443 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 3: Fangio defense in back to back weeks. That's brutal. I mean, 444 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 3: he's been under constant pressure. The offensive line is a mess. Well, 445 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 3: now he gets to come home and face a Tennessee 446 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: team that has an awful defense. This is a bottom 447 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 3: five defense. This is a defense that doesn't generate pressure. 448 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 3: He should feel a lot more comfortable. I'm banking on 449 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 3: him looking a lot like you know, Trevor Lawrence looked 450 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 3: a lot better against at Arizona defense after facing the Broncos. 451 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 3: I think you'll see the same thing here at home. 452 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 3: Hopefully Jamison Crowder plays. He's practiced in a limited fashion today, 453 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 3: but they need him in this lot. I think he'd 454 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 3: be really important. But they should be able to put 455 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 3: some drives together for the first time this year because 456 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 3: the Tennessee defense is that bad. And you know, the 457 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 3: Tennessee is a team that just it kind of plays down. 458 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 3: We talked about this a lot. They play down to competition. 459 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 3: They're seven and two and they're last nine on the road. 460 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 3: Five of them came by six or less. Two of 461 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 3: them in overtime. This is a team that's just gonna 462 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 3: play close games. I was not impressed with the Titans 463 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 3: last week. I mean they beat the Colts by nine 464 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 3: at home, Like I said, plus three and turnovers. The 465 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: Colts lose their star guard, three defensive starters, they have 466 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 3: a quarterback playing with two broken ankles, like with no weapons. 467 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 3: I think the Jets could do enough to get this cover. Here. 468 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 3: Another reason why this is a good bylow spot. Teams 469 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 3: that score under ten points in the NFL the next week, 470 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 3: they're one hundred and fifty two to ninety seven and 471 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 3: four against the spread. The next week that's sixty one 472 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 3: percent against the spread. So I think this is the 473 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 3: time I will tell you look the Jags. I don't 474 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 3: regret play the Jats last week, ever played them two 475 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 3: weeks ago. I haven't touched any of these other rookie quarterbacks. 476 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: This is the time to bet the Jets. I only 477 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 3: bet the Jets once last year. I hate this team 478 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 3: and they covered for us. This might be the only 479 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,239 Speaker 3: time I bet the Jets this year. I think this 480 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 3: is the spot against the defense with an offense that 481 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 3: will likely be missing its top two receivers. And a 482 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 3: run defense that I think can hold up here. Defense 483 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 3: is actually playing really well when compared to the talent 484 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 3: with that, so I think Sala is doing some good 485 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 3: things scheme wise with that defense. And I think Wilson 486 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 3: will actually look competent this week and put some drives together, 487 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 3: which it might say something about him, but I think 488 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: it's gonna say mainly with this Tennessee defense is so 489 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 3: give me the Jets over a touchdown at home. 490 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: You just convinced me to play the under on this game. 491 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 2: Everything you said, it's like, just like you said, you 492 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: rather play the Ravens Broncos under. I think I just 493 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 2: rather played his game under. I do agree. I think 494 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 2: the spot is great. I mean you mentioned teams that 495 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 2: don't score a lot straight up shutouts, an underdog off 496 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 2: a shutout versus a favorite not coming off of buye 497 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 2: so as long as the favorite doesn't have like long 498 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 2: rest thirty nine and twenty sixty six percent since two 499 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 2: thousand and three. So you know, we saw Miami squeak 500 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,719 Speaker 2: out the cover last week. Want to know this season, 501 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 2: but yeah, all my trends are on the Jets. The 502 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 2: one thing that scares me, I have like seven trends 503 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 2: on the Jets that are kind of similar, like sixty 504 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: percent by low spots, you know, bet against the public 505 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 2: after a big game sixty one percent, coming off a 506 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 2: shutout sixty six percent, you know, three game losing streak, 507 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: you know, sixty four percent. So a lot of things 508 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 2: that suggest you know, the Jets are right player. But 509 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 2: one thing that scares me is that the Titans issues 510 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 2: on pass defense have been explosive plays on third down. 511 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 2: I just don't know if the Jets are in a 512 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 2: spot that they can create those. Remember now, Elijah Moore 513 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 2: looks like he might miss, and like I mean, Corey Davis, 514 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,239 Speaker 2: you know, Christian Fulton's actually playing quite well. So I 515 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: just I don't know where those come from. I mean, 516 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: this might make he's sick. But the Titans are actually 517 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 2: number two in the league in early down success rate 518 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: against the pass on defense. It's been all third down 519 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 2: like issues for that. Remember Seattle had like the big 520 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 2: playing third down. So that's what scares me. Maybe the 521 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 2: Jets could do that, but I think I'd still rather 522 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 2: take the under because I don't I mean, they played 523 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 2: a twenty five to sixteen game against the Colts last week. 524 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if the Jets can beat that, so 525 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 2: I get it. It's the right spot. I probably will 526 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 2: end up going to under in this one, though, and 527 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 2: continuing to fade these rookie quarterbacks, and so they show 528 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 2: me something I don't hate to pick at all. All Right, 529 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: For the third overall pick and my second pick of 530 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 2: the week four Sunday six pack, I'm going with the 531 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks plus three at the San Francisco forty nine ers. 532 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 2: So I love Seattle here because it's just a bi 533 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 2: lo spot on a team that is better than its 534 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 2: record at one and two. Throughout his career, you know, 535 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,479 Speaker 2: Pete Carroll always kind of been a little you know, 536 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 2: some of the things you could question his philosophies, but 537 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 2: in these kinds of situations they generally get it right. 538 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson Pete Carroll together multi game losing streak thirteen 539 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 2: to two and one against the spread. It's rarely ever happens, 540 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 2: so you rarely ever get the spot. Russell Wilson's been 541 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 2: the quarterback for what nine years now, sixteen times this 542 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 2: has happened, where you even get a spot like this 543 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 2: Seahawk coming off multiple losses, they're covering eighty seven percent 544 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 2: of the time. I think they do it again, and 545 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 2: I love fading. Kyle Shanahan is a favorite. He's eight 546 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: and nineteen. There's thirty percent against the spread when the 547 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 2: Niners are a favorite. Faded him in the spot last week. 548 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 2: It worked out doing it again. I think when you 549 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 2: look at Seattle and you look at how they match 550 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 2: up with San Francisco, San Francisco still has cornerback issue. 551 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 2: I think this defense. The difference between this defense and 552 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 2: the twenty nineteen defense is that the twenty nineteen defense, 553 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 2: you still had Richard Sherman playing at a high level. 554 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 2: You had the cornerback situation good enough to the point 555 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 2: where you didn't really want to you know, with that 556 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 2: four man rush and you were playing seven in coverage. 557 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 2: You didn't want to attack the outside against this team. 558 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 2: Didn't want to attack the slot corner. No, there's not 559 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 2: really a strong corner to speak of in this defense. 560 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 2: You know, maybe Leonora will be good one day, but 561 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 2: you saw how Aaron Rodgers kind of just picked and 562 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: choosed his matchup with Davontae Adams. Seattle has two receivers 563 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 2: that they could do that with. They have a quarterback 564 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 2: that's right up there with Aaron Rodgers when you talk about, 565 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: you know, talent level and being able to just drop 566 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 2: a pinpoint deep ball in or pinpoint pass outside. And 567 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 2: then on the other side, I mean Seattle's defense, we 568 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: know it's not great, but San Francisco's defense is only 569 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 2: nineteenth in DVOA. They haven't been that great either, So 570 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 2: I just don't like last week the reason I was 571 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 2: betting against San Francisco was I just felt like San 572 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 2: Francisco is no longer dominant enough on defense, and they're 573 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 2: still great on the on the OA, and that that 574 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 2: is when where they are great, but they're just not 575 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 2: great enough on defense to where I don't think it's 576 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 2: gonna come when it it's a matchup like this, it's 577 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 2: gonna come down to the two quarterbacks, and it was 578 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 2: gonna be Aaron Rodgers versus Jim and I feel the 579 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 2: same way in this one. I don't think San Francisco's 580 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 2: dominant enough, especially with this running game in flux where 581 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 2: we saw if Yuschek get more snaps in the backfield 582 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 2: than any half back last week sixty nine percent of 583 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 2: the snaps, Thurman fifty nine percent, No other tailback played. 584 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,199 Speaker 2: They got everyone involved in the run game. And you 585 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 2: know Kyle Shanahan, he's he's working hard to try to 586 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 2: scheme up ways for this offense and for Jimmy, but 587 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 2: he obviously doesn't trust him in the red zone. Took 588 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 2: him out on fourth and goal to bring in Trey Lance. Like, 589 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 2: I just think that San Francisco's not dominant enough to 590 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 2: where they're gonna blow out Seattle. Seattle's gonna be there 591 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 2: and it's gonna come down to Jimmy versus Russ, and 592 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 2: that's advantage. Russ loved the spot. Russell Wilson is a 593 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: road dog, twenty and eleven in his career against the 594 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: spread sixty five percent. Even Carol, just take out Russ. 595 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 2: Just Carol overall, you know, thirty six and twenty one, 596 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 2: sixty three percent against the spread off the loss, and 597 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 2: again with Russ thirteen to two off a multi game 598 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 2: losing street. This is just the spot for Seattle. I 599 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: love him in his spot. I don't think they go 600 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 2: to one and three. 601 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 3: I have to disagree here because the game is going 602 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 3: to be decided by a field goal. If it was 603 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 3: plus three and a half, I would. 604 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: Agree the game though that's the thing. 605 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: That field goal, that's fine, but I would just look, 606 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 3: russ should have success against this beat up secondary. The 607 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 3: forty nine er should all have success on offense. 608 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 2: But look, Russell. 609 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 3: Wilson is an underdog in his career has been very 610 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 3: good twenty three to nine and two against the spread. 611 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 3: So that is what thirty four games. In those thirty 612 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: four games, any spread, you should only tease dogs generally 613 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: between one and a half and three, but any spread, 614 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 3: he has covered the six point t's thirty two out 615 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 3: of thirty four times. That's ninety four percent. And when 616 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 3: the spread is between one and a half and three 617 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 3: points as it is here, and when you should tease 618 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 3: dogs fifteen to zero. So this is a perfect teaser 619 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: piece for me with the Seahawks. Should keep this within 620 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 3: one possession. So yeah, I'm I chased him with Cincy, 621 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 3: so right, I mean you're. 622 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 2: Right about that. I love him as a tease, I 623 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 2: love him on the spread. I love him as a 624 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 2: a moneyline dog. Like I just think this is the 625 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: spot for Seattle. I'm fading Jimmy G Like this is 626 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 2: like these are the kind of picks I'm trying to make. 627 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 2: So I don't have to go like the Jets. It's like, 628 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 2: I'm trying to take quality teams with quality quarterbacks, you know, 629 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: early in the year when we're kind of panicked about them, 630 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,479 Speaker 2: and then we're all down and them and they're one 631 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: and two. Like if Seattle beats Tennessee or they hold 632 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 2: that week against Minnesota because they've had a double digit 633 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 2: weeed in every game, if they beat Tennessee or Minnesota 634 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 2: or both like this, this line is closer to a 635 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 2: pick them. So give me Seattle. But your point is 636 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: taken about the Teas. 637 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 3: It's a good point, all right. Well, I don't think 638 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 3: I've got a quality quarterback all year, so we're going 639 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 3: to keep that trend going. With my second pick and 640 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 3: the fourth overall, the Sunday six back, I'm going with 641 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers plus six and a half at bet 642 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 3: MGM at Green Bay in Lambeau and the washed Ben Roethlisberg. 643 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: I watched that game last week and he looked horrendous. 644 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 3: But if you didn't know that I was picking the 645 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 3: Steelers this week, you haven't been listening to this podcast. 646 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 3: I knew the classic Tomlin spot. 647 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: What a rah Ron Mike Tomlin spot. 648 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 3: We win the game with this cruel bodies right here today, 649 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 3: ring the only game to day. Tomlin has some deficiencies 650 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: in in game management and other things, and his team 651 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 3: can come out flat. But when they need a win 652 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 3: and when they have the US against the world mentality, 653 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 3: there is no better motivator. 654 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: Let the greatest of all time look at your word. 655 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 3: And people used to say a narrative, narrative. This just 656 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 3: happens every time, over and over and over and over 657 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 3: again for years. Give you some numbers. Tomlin rode favorite 658 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 3: against the losing team sixteen thirty and one against the 659 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 3: spread thirty four point eight percent, failing to cover by 660 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 3: three and a half points per game negative twenty nine percent. 661 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 3: ROI dead last of every single coach who's ever coached 662 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 3: the NFL in our Actions Lab database since two thousand 663 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 3: and three. 664 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about the labor pays man. 665 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 2: Deliver the damn baby. 666 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 3: Tomlin is a road dog against the winning team eighteen 667 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 3: and six against the spread seventy five percent, covering by 668 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 3: an average margin of six points forty eight percent.

You ain't new to 672 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: us no more. Now you know what I mean. Dominate 673 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 2: this football game. 674 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 3: Look, they're one and two, they're going to Green Bay. 675 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 3: Everyone has rid them off. Season's over. Ben is washed. 676 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: This team sucks. Blow it up. They have no chance here. 677 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 3: This is where Tomlin drives, right, we see it all 678 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: the time. Usually wins these games outright like they'll find 679 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 3: a way to win the like they didn't Buffalo. Somehow, 680 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if they find a way to 681 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 3: win this game. Their defense should be a lot healthier. 682 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 3: That's what people haven't been recognizing. Mick I fitz Patchrick's 683 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 3: played pretty bad. He'll be fine. But you know they 684 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 3: haven't at Hayden and Bush at times they didn't have 685 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 3: Watt and high Smith. Those guys are all practicing, and 686 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 3: I expect them to play. You know, I think this 687 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 3: is gonna be a lower scoring game, which gives more 688 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 3: value to the dog trying to find it. See if 689 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 3: he can get the seven, which is obviously important. I'd 690 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 3: buy that up to you know, minus one twenty. So 691 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be low scoring game, which provides 692 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 3: even more value to the underdog here. But I'm trusting 693 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 3: the spot. I'm trusting the Pittsburgh will be able to 694 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 3: run the ball a little more than they have been 695 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 3: against this green Bay defense, and green Bay won't. I 696 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 3: don't think they're gonna have mvs and people are like, oh, 697 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: I'm vs. He stakes No. Number one, he has huge games. 698 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 3: Number two, he's the he's the field stretcher. So he's 699 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: the guy that doesn't matter if he's you know, catching 700 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 3: a ball or Rogers misses him or he's dropped. They 701 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 3: don't really have another elite speed guy like him, so 702 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 3: it makes them a little easier to defend. And then 703 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 3: focused on DeVante Adams. I think the Steelers, obviously, if 704 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 3: all their guys that are playing saying who I expect 705 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 3: to play, I think can get some pressure on Rogers 706 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 3: and just this defense. Every what happens is these Tomlin spots. 707 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 3: The defense comes out with their hair on fire, and 708 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 3: you know everyone has said this team is done. And 709 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 3: this is usually when the Steelers win the game, and 710 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 3: then everyone next week will say they're back, and then 711 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 3: they'll lose at home. That's the the Tomlin circle of life. 712 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 3: So give me the Steelers plus six. It's a game 713 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 3: I make like five and change five eight. So like 714 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 3: from a line value perspective, it's not the biggest edge, 715 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 3: but it's the spot. I bet this almost religiously. As 716 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 3: you know, there'll be times when we fade. Tomlin is 717 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 3: a road favorite later in the year, hopefully with big Ben. 718 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 3: So yeah, give me the Steelers. 719 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is this is a great pick. These are 720 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 2: the two that, like I was kind of hoping you 721 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 2: would take because they looked so bad. But like Tom 722 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 2: win you mentioned, like he wins these games straight up. 723 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin on the money line as a dog from 724 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: October on is twenty six and nineteen fifty eight percent 725 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 2: straight up. I remember, he's a dog. Dog is supposed 726 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 2: to win, like you know what, forty thirty five to 727 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 2: forty percent of the time, Like you know, it's just 728 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 2: been absurd with him. I mean him off a loss 729 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 2: fifty seven percent against the spread forty three and thirty 730 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 2: three a dog from week three on thirty five, fourteen 731 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 2: and two seventy one percent against the spread on the 732 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 2: road off a loss twenty two and fourteen sixty one 733 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 2: percent against the spread. I mean everything pretty much is 734 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,240 Speaker 2: like Tom wins spot tom Win Spot Tomin spots. Pittsburgh 735 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 2: wasn't my initial money line dog pick, but I may 736 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 2: switch to them. There's a really good chance they win, 737 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 2: and they have a juicy money line right now, so 738 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 2: I do like this pick. It's the It's definitely the 739 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 2: right pick to put a. 740 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 3: Ball in this Tomlin as an underdog. This is a 741 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 3: wild stat Tomlin is an underdog against an opponent with 742 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 3: an equal or better winning percentage twenty seven six and 743 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 3: one against the spread twenty seven to six. So I'm 744 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 3: trust that Tomlin in the spot out here wouldn't be 745 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 3: surprised if we get like a block punt Rogers gets, 746 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 3: you know, throws a pick six, the Steelers will come 747 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 3: out with their hair on fire. Hopefully Ben doesn't mess 748 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 3: it all up. 749 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: And this is a and this is a big leftdown 750 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 2: spot for the Packers too, because it's another reason why 751 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 2: I liked him. Last week. It was like, okay, San 752 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 2: Francisco to a no, green Bay doesn't want to go 753 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 2: one and two. On primetime, you saw Aaron Rodgers like 754 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 2: he was about as happy as I've seen him in 755 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 2: Green Bay as a Packer in the last decade, you know, 756 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 2: and that post game interview said, oh, it's in football romantic, 757 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 2: like this is a perfect web down spot, like Rogers is. 758 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 3: You know, he wants to won the Super Bowl, and 759 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be caught coasting a little bit 760 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 3: of times because the sense of urgency across the seventeen 761 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 3: game season when you play in that division, it's hard 762 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 3: to keep up because it's like, all right, we're gonna 763 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 3: win the division and we're going to the playoffs. So 764 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 3: uh yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if the package meant 765 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:51,760 Speaker 3: of the flat. 766 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 2: All right, hit that horn, baby, let's dance. 767 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 3: All right. 768 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 2: For the fifth overall and my third pick of the week, 769 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 2: four Sunday six pack, I am going with the Minnesota 770 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 2: Vikings plus one and a half at home against the 771 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:13,240 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns. And this is another spot where I like Minnesota. 772 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: I make this a coin flip game. And so I 773 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 2: like Minnesota because you've got him at home again. You 774 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 2: know they're a home dog. Zimmer. He's got some some 775 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 2: kind of familiarity with the fans because he coached under him. 776 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 2: Now you know it goes both ways. Obviously the fans. 777 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 2: He's gonna understand some Missourian schemes. But I think Cleveland, 778 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 2: you know, they got this kind of freebie against the 779 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 2: Bears last week in a game that I just had 780 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 2: all wrong. But Cleveland's defense, I think is still you know, 781 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 2: the jury's out. But I also think Minnesota's playing really 782 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 2: well on offense, so I think this is going to 783 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 2: kind of be a back and forth game. I think, 784 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 2: you know, even in the Vikings, you know, whether they 785 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 2: have Dalvin Cook or not, Like Alexander Maxison was great 786 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 2: last week. He they didn't change their offense at all 787 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 2: from Cook to Madison. So I don't really think, you know, 788 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 2: Cook is worth like much to the spread. You know, 789 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: running backs in the running game in general isn't. But 790 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 2: you know, I know some people may you know Dalvin 791 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,240 Speaker 2: Cook because he banged up, that could be an issue. 792 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 2: I don't really think it is. I don't know how 793 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 2: much disapplies because of the familiarity, but it's worth noting 794 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 2: Mike because it's just one of those crazy stats Mike 795 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 2: Zimmer versus a non divisional opponent on normal rest. So 796 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 2: as long as there's no biys, I always like to 797 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: filter out for you know, kind of outlier situations like buyes. 798 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 2: But Mike Zimmer versus a non divisional opponent normal rest 799 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 2: thirty eight and eighteen against the spread sixty eight percent. 800 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 3: Uh. 801 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,919 Speaker 2: And we also got Cousins at the time. He loves 802 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 2: to play as a one PM Eastern Dog. Cousins in 803 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 2: his career is twenty and nine against the spread. Like 804 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 2: these are just the kind of spots where you know 805 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,280 Speaker 2: it's a toss up game. You know, people still probably 806 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 2: thinking of Minnesota is like shaky after that oh and 807 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,919 Speaker 2: two start, but they could easily be three and zero. 808 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 2: I think I mentioned after two weeks they were the 809 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 2: only team that was ow and two that had this 810 00:38:55,640 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 2: positive EPA per play Cleveland Chicago's obviously, I thought usin 811 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 2: fields would helped him. He didn't. They are just as 812 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 2: bad with justin field, so I'm not putting much stock 813 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: into that. And Cleveland also play Houston. Now. They played 814 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,399 Speaker 2: a great game against Kansas City, but Kansas City might 815 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: not be as dominant as we thought they were. Like, oh, 816 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 2: you lost to them by four points. What that's like 817 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 2: a win? You know, I don't know if that's you 818 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 2: can kind of look at it anymore. So Cleveland's another team. 819 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 2: They haven't really played anyone the Minnesota lost to Cincinnati 820 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 2: looks a little better now that Cincinnati is you know, 821 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 2: they've kind of come together as a defense and they're playmakers. 822 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 2: Burrow Chase, those guys are looking good. Their old line 823 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 2: is holding up for the most part. So if that 824 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: lost to Cincinnati isn't looking as bad. And then Arizona, 825 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 2: you know they should have won that game. So I 826 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 2: just think this is more of a coin flip game. 827 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: You're still getting a point and a half. I would 828 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 2: take this one down or pick them. You have a 829 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,359 Speaker 2: home dog in a spot earlier in the season where 830 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 2: we just don't know enough about these two teams to 831 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 2: give Cleveland a you know, to give what's a general 832 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 2: corn foot matchup Cleveland and edge on the row. So 833 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 2: Minnesota plus one and a half against Cleveland as a 834 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 2: home dog, take it down to a pick. 835 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't mind this as I make this a 836 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 3: true coin flip as well. But you know that plus 837 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 3: one and f which we'll get to in a second teaser. 838 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 3: I t's the Vikings up over seven. But Cousins is 839 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 3: playing at a ridiculously high level right now. I mean 840 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 3: you have to give him credit. And we'll see how 841 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 3: Minnesota can hold up against Miles Garrett, that's going to 842 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 3: be something to watch. But yeah, Cousins is just he's 843 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 3: firing on all cylinders right now. And that defense, I 844 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 3: mentioned this earlier in the season. It's a brand new defense, 845 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 3: nine new starters, and it's Mike Zimmer. He always gets 846 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 3: his defense corrected. So it's a defense that I think 847 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 3: it's going to improve with each passing week. And we 848 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 3: saw a little bit of that in the second half 849 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 3: last week when they shut out the Seahawks for the 850 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 3: entire second half. So I don't mind that play at all. 851 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,439 Speaker 3: But I look the Minnesota You said it, they could 852 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 3: be three enough, and I think that they would be 853 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 3: probably favored. You know, you could have a field goal 854 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 3: swing if they were three, and oh you will probably 855 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 3: see them minus one minus one and a half here, 856 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 3: just because of the perception and obviously it's kind of 857 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 3: a dead range. But they lost to the Arizona on 858 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 3: a chip shot field goal, and they lost to Cincinnati 859 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 3: because of a bogus fumble call upon review, so they 860 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 3: easily could be three. You know, I don't hate to 861 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 3: play at all for my third pick and the sixth 862 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 3: overall pick of the Sunday six pack. You have gone 863 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson, Kirk Cousins, and Lamar Jackson. I have gone 864 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: not Russell Wilson. I've gone Zach Wilson, not Ben Roethlisberger 865 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 3: of twenty ten, Ben Roethlisberger of twenty twenty one. And 866 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 3: we're gonna close it out with Danny Dimes. Baby, let's 867 00:41:53,080 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 3: hear it for Danny Dimes. 868 00:41:59,360 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 2: The. 869 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,759 Speaker 3: Road Warrior and the New York Football Giants. Man, I 870 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 3: have I have the two New York teams in my 871 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 3: six back and the Steelers. We're going with the Giants 872 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 3: plus seven and a half at the Saints. Look, I 873 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,839 Speaker 3: know the offensive line has injuries. I know Martinez, their 874 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: middle linebacker is out for the year. Not the best 875 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 3: part of the world, make a lot of tackles, but 876 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 3: he's like their quarterback of their defense. They're gonna need 877 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 3: some young guys to step up. But this is just 878 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 3: an overreaction to what has happened. I mean, New Orleans 879 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 3: went into New England last week and won again. They 880 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:38,360 Speaker 3: shouldn't have won. They were out gained, they got to 881 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 3: pick six on a tipped ball drop, they got another 882 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 3: pick inside the New England red zone and then they 883 00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 3: got a touchdown on a ball. Jamis said, I'm just 884 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 3: gonna throw it up into the end zone and it 885 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 3: somehow got caught. But you know, it's if you look 886 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 3: at and Sean Payton is not good. I'd be shocked 887 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 3: if you see that ever happen again. James Winston now 888 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,839 Speaker 3: is still make some mistake throws. I could see him 889 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 3: making some mistake throws here. But this offense is so 890 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,760 Speaker 3: conservative and they don't really have great receivers right now. 891 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,840 Speaker 3: And that's why this total is like forty one and 892 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 3: a half and catching seven and a half in a 893 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 3: total in the NFL. With a total of forty one 894 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 3: and a half against Jameis Winston, one of the worst 895 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 3: quarterbacks you could ever back, is a favorite, yet alone 896 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 3: a favorite of over seven points. I mean, I'm taking 897 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 3: this all day. I understand that you know the Slayton 898 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 3: is probably not gonna play, Shepherd's probably not gonna play. 899 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 2: I don't care. 900 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 3: You're probably gonna see more design runs for Daniel Jones. 901 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 3: You're gonna see lots of punts in this game. It's 902 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 3: such a low number. I can't play the under, but 903 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 3: I would lean on it. I think it's gonna be 904 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 3: an ugly game. And this is where these are the 905 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 3: games the Giants cover. We talk about this week in 906 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 3: and week out. The Giants are at home, people are like, oh, 907 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 3: they're pretty good, and then they lose out right. Then 908 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 3: they go on the road and they upset Seattle. They 909 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 3: should have upset Washington. They look really good. It's what 910 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 3: they do. Dimes daty dimes now four and eleven against 911 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 3: the spread at home, ten and four against the spread 912 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 3: at home. And by the way, Winston seven fourteen and 913 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 3: one against the spread as a favorite thirty three percent. 914 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,759 Speaker 3: He's eighteen ten to one against the spread as a 915 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 3: dog more than a field goal sixty five percent. Look, 916 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 3: the Saints also have offensive line injuries, so their offensive line, 917 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 3: which is like the strength of that team, potentially might 918 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 3: not be fully healthy. Armstead could be out, you know, 919 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 3: center is still banged up. So look, this is a 920 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 3: lot of points for the Saints and their conservative offense 921 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 3: with a guy who trying to run it, who could 922 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 3: go rogue at any moment and throw a pick six, 923 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 3: throw a bad pick. They were very fortunate last week. 924 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 3: They also caught the Packers just when everything went wrong. Well, look, 925 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 3: we've seen the Packers are since we saw the Saints 926 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 3: have a disastrous game of Carolina. There also could be 927 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:03,239 Speaker 3: some fatigue here, right, three straight road games, you haven't 928 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 3: been really at home the hurricane. Now you're coming home. 929 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 3: Not just like physical fatigue, but mental fatigue. You're playing 930 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:14,239 Speaker 3: the Giants like I could see them being flat here. 931 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 3: They'll probably approach a conservative let's just get this win, 932 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 3: and the Giants are essentially playing for their season. You 933 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 3: can't go all in four. You can go one in 934 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 3: three and have a shot in the NFC East. You 935 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 3: can't go all in four, and then this is just 936 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 3: games that the Giants cover. I think their defense can 937 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 3: keep them in it against a very conservative offense. It 938 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 3: doesn't have great weapons, that has a banged up offensive line, 939 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 3: a quarterback that's been being treated with kids gloves who 940 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 3: sometimes will rip them off and throw a rogue pass 941 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 3: or two that I think the Giants can capitalize on. 942 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 3: I know the Giants have offensive line issues. I know 943 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 3: they have receiver issues, but I think you'll see a 944 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 3: lot more designed Jones runs, which they didn't do for 945 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 3: some reason last week. They did against Washington very successfully. 946 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 3: I trust the Giants on the road in the spot. 947 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 3: I think that they'll keep this within a touchdo in 948 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,239 Speaker 3: a very low scoring game. Seven and a half is 949 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 3: a ton of points in this game, So give me 950 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 3: the g man. 951 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 2: Obviously, I want to beat you in there in our contest, 952 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 2: but I gotta give some some numbers to back you up. 953 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 2: Here's a crazy one Sean Payton when the Saints are 954 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 2: on a one game win streak, so that means like 955 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 2: like they're coming off a win, but they didn't win 956 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 2: the game before that, so it's not like a two 957 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: game win streak. And when he's a favorite by six 958 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 2: or more, he's two and thirteen against the spread, failing 959 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 2: to cover by an average of eleven point four points. 960 00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 2: That's a lot of games, like fifteen games to fail 961 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,800 Speaker 2: to cover by that's two hundred. That's only two hundred 962 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 2: points that he's given up, like against the spread. Like 963 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 2: that's absurd. So the Giants of the play Danny Dimes. 964 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,320 Speaker 2: You mentioned ten and four on the road, nine and 965 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 2: two as a road dog, so they I don't know 966 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 2: how the Giants have been favored a couple of times 967 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 2: at home. I don't know, but that's yeah, that's not 968 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 2: even the situation here. And then Jamis when he's a 969 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 2: home favorite, just five and thirteen against the spread. As 970 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 2: a home favorite, he's failing to cover by three point 971 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,799 Speaker 2: nine points, so almost a field goal. So yeah, this 972 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 2: all points to like a like a Saints like seventeen 973 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,720 Speaker 2: thirteen win or something like that. You know, like nothing, 974 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 2: nothing too crazy, same, pretty much the same game as 975 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 2: last week. Giants look like they might do it, but 976 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 2: they do something stupid weight in the game, or they 977 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 2: just kind of you know, fold and the Saints win 978 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:24,919 Speaker 2: the game. 979 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 980 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be shocked to the Giants win this game, 981 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 4: Like I wouldn't you. I wouldn't be when they went 982 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 4: to Seattle last year. Like that's ugly enough. Jamis makes 983 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 4: a few mistakes, Jones makes a couple of big runs. 984 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 4: Giants with twenty to seventeen wouldn't shock me at all. 985 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh geeesh. That now I'm like torn because I 986 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 2: also like the Giants for my money line dog, but 987 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,720 Speaker 2: we're not at that segment yet.

Let's get back to the show. 1025 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,439 Speaker 2: Now it's time for our favorite total of the week. 1026 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 2: All right, stuck, not my favorite totals week, and I 1027 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 2: also started the six facts, so uh, go ahead and 1028 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 2: give us your total to start us off. 1029 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, have a. 1030 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 2: Couple I mentioned the Ravens under which I'd like, but 1031 00:49:59,600 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 2: I'm going. 1032 00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 3: To with the the Green Bay Pittsburgh first half under 1033 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 3: twenty three. I also like the game under which I'll 1034 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 3: be playing under forty six, but I prefer the first 1035 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 3: half under a little more because Number One, if you 1036 00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 3: look at it, these two teams are the slowest in 1037 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 3: the NFL and seconds per play in the first half, 1038 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 3: which is worth noting. Neither team are fast, and I expect, 1039 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 3: like I said, the Steelers defense to come out with 1040 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 3: their hair on fire. I could see the Packers coming 1041 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 3: out a little flat. I expect the Steelers to play 1042 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 3: this very conservatively in the beginning. Let their you know, 1043 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 3: and their offense is kind of broken. They can't do 1044 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 3: anything downfield. There's no explosiveness. It's just then getting rid 1045 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:39,799 Speaker 3: of the ball quickly. But I think they're gonna run 1046 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 3: it a lot in the first half, and their defense 1047 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 3: is gonna play really well, and I think this is 1048 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 3: just a rock fight. In the first half, Steelers keep 1049 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 3: it close to as ugly this game up. Why I 1050 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 3: prefer the first half a little more than the second 1051 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 3: half is just I don't want if the Steelers defense 1052 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,240 Speaker 3: makes a couple of plays and their offense is moving 1053 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,479 Speaker 3: the ball and Rogers is playing from behind. Like, that's 1054 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 3: not the script that I want. And then if the 1055 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 3: Steelers get too far behind the second half, I don't 1056 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 3: want Ben trying to throw them back because that's just 1057 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 3: a recipe for disaster. They're gonna start playing faster number one, 1058 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 3: and then you're gonna have, you know, potential turnovers. And 1059 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 3: so I think the game script in the first half 1060 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 3: is gonna be very conducive to an under. So we'll 1061 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 3: go with the first half under twenty three or better 1062 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh Green Bay. And by the way, like we 1063 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 3: said before, these Tomlin spots in the road, his unders 1064 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 3: have been very successful. 1065 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 2: Wow, I love the fase enthusiasm. I'm gonna see if 1066 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 2: we can make what do you guys quit today? 1067 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:44,400 Speaker 3: So that speaks to that defense coming out. I think 1068 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 3: that Unders is a road dog. He's like sixty eight 1069 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 3: percent or something. 1070 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,359 Speaker 2: I feel like I've had better trends for your picks 1071 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 2: than my picks, but I got you at this point. 1072 00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,720 Speaker 2: Tomlin rode unders when it's between when it's over forty 1073 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:58,800 Speaker 2: three up to fifty one, So forty three and a 1074 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 2: half to fifty one, So you take out those like 1075 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 2: Super Bowl total games where it's probably going. You know, 1076 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,359 Speaker 2: it's just hard to go under road under for Tom 1077 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,880 Speaker 2: win forty three and a half to fifty one, forty 1078 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 2: three and fifteen, seventy four percent, And that's not even 1079 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 2: off a loss. That's just road unders that in this range, it's. 1080 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,160 Speaker 3: Absurd, it's insane. 1081 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 2: Like you, you might as well just go with the 1082 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 2: full game, like you should be fine, Like you know 1083 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 2: what I mean, Yeah, I know, I mean, I mean, 1084 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 2: I don't even think you I know, you feel like 1085 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 2: the first half is safer for the show. I'm saying, 1086 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 2: like I almost feel like you're fine on the full game. 1087 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 2: Forty three and fifteen. 1088 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 3: That's absurd, crazy, Where are you going? 1089 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 2: So this is not my favorite totals week. I'll be honest. 1090 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 2: Usually I'm on a bunch of unders. I think the 1091 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 2: market has started to adjust. You know, there's gonna be 1092 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 2: some weather. It's some cause I've seen a bunch of 1093 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 2: totals that I thought about kind of come down. But 1094 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna actually switch. I was gonna go Detroit Chicago 1095 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 2: under you all, you know, full disclosure, forty two, I 1096 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:05,440 Speaker 2: like that down to forty one. I think but I'm 1097 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: actually gonna go with the Jets Titans under forty four, 1098 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 2: you know, kind of talking to you about it and 1099 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 2: kind of fleshing out some things. I really like this because, 1100 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 2: number one, you look at the pace, and that's always 1101 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 2: a great starting point for betting unders. You want to 1102 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 2: look at the pace. So situation neutral pace Tennessee twenty first, 1103 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 2: the Jets twentieth. First half pace Tennessee twenty third the 1104 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 2: Jets twenty seven. So okay, we're gonna get an ugly 1105 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 2: first half game. Tennessee's I remember I mentioned they've given 1106 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:38,359 Speaker 2: up a lot of plays on third down, but there's 1107 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 2: number two in the league in early down success rate 1108 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 2: against the pass. On defense, I still think Zach Wilson 1109 00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,399 Speaker 2: struggles in this one. And then on the other side, 1110 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: it's Tennessee's offense that we're really worried about, Like if 1111 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,760 Speaker 2: this game is gonna go over, but as you mentioned, 1112 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 2: they are without aj Brown, it may very well be 1113 00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 2: without Julio Jones as well, or if if they're not, 1114 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 2: they're going to manage his revs. Either way, it's an 1115 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 2: opponent that they're favored by a touchdown against. Their plan 1116 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 2: is going to be to run the football. And I 1117 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,360 Speaker 2: look at the Jets. They have offense has been so 1118 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 2: bad that no one's noticed. They've been decent on defense, 1119 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,799 Speaker 2: especially compared to their talent level. There are seventeenth in 1120 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:18,720 Speaker 2: success rate against the run on early downs and against 1121 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,359 Speaker 2: the pass, so very league average, middle of the pack 1122 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 2: defense for a talent level that's probably bottom five Autumn three. Yeah, 1123 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 2: you know Tennessee is gonna kind of we know what 1124 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 2: they're gonna do. You know, they're gonna come out and 1125 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,200 Speaker 2: hand the ball to Derek Henry twenty five thirty times. 1126 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 2: And there might be some weather. You know, there's like 1127 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,600 Speaker 2: seven to ten minin now wins, some lowisability, maybe some overcast. 1128 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 2: We could get rain in this game. I had to 1129 00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 2: take this down to forty three. I think this is 1130 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,840 Speaker 2: one of those games where I wouldn't be surprised if 1131 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 2: the total close at forty three. So like Jets Titans 1132 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 2: under forty four. 1133 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they scored twenty five against the Colts, who 1134 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 3: lost three defensive backsturing the game, and they were plus 1135 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 3: three in turnovers, like in a game that they led 1136 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 3: fourteen to thirteen in the fourth quarter. And by the way, 1137 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 3: you convinced me forty three and fifteen. I'll go under 1138 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 3: forty si full game or forty five and a half. 1139 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter for this Bears lines. I don't hate 1140 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 3: that under now. I also do want to say that 1141 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 3: I think the Bears a value. Now this line has 1142 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 3: gone way the other way. It's under a field goal 1143 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 3: now at home. That's crazy after what we saw last week. 1144 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 3: Look the lines people are like, they fight like wooh, 1145 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 3: they fight like, all right, keep trys. That's good if 1146 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 3: you can try to cover ten. But plus two and 1147 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 3: a half now in Chicago. This reminds me of Week 1148 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 3: two when the Bears played the Bengals after Week one 1149 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 3: and a lot of money came in on the Bengals 1150 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,280 Speaker 3: and the Bears won that game. They got a bit fortunate. 1151 00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:41,320 Speaker 3: I you look at the box score, but this is 1152 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 3: a Lions team that was getting blasted by sant fran 1153 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 3: as someone who had plus ten at the close and 1154 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 3: got a back door on two touchdowns, two two book 1155 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,879 Speaker 3: versions of an on side kick, like they were down twenty. 1156 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 3: They should have lost that game by twenty four. And 1157 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 3: then you know, you look at the Packers game. They 1158 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 3: played a good first half and then they got blown 1159 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 3: out the Ravens should have been up by twenty four 1160 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 3: the first half. If Mark they don't have all those drops. 1161 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 3: This is a team without a secondary at all. 1162 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 2: Matt Maggie's coaching for his job. Fields I might might start, 1163 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:08,279 Speaker 2: might not. 1164 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,760 Speaker 3: You might see Foles field anyway, It'll be an upgrade 1165 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 3: if it's not Fields right now from what we've seen 1166 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,399 Speaker 3: last week. If you see Fields will be a short 1167 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,439 Speaker 3: hawk like. It won't be a disaster like last week. 1168 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,840 Speaker 3: Maggie has to win now. He's gonna get fired. He 1169 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,479 Speaker 3: can't lose this game. You could see you know, big 1170 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,319 Speaker 3: Dick Nick Foles in there, or you could see any 1171 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 3: Dalton if he's healthy, who at least you know aren't 1172 00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 3: or are just not going to be like it looks 1173 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 3: like a dark room out there, like Justin Field said 1174 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,920 Speaker 3: last week. And obviously this is a much easier defense 1175 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 3: to go against Jared Goff outdoors. So I like the 1176 00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:39,240 Speaker 3: Bears now that it's I threw in a moneyline parlay 1177 00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 3: with the Bills that it got under three. If you 1178 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 3: grab the lines at like five and a half six, 1179 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,480 Speaker 3: that's a great grab. But this crossing the three now 1180 00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 3: is I think the Bears a value so. 1181 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question, and because I kind 1182 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 2: of agree with you, so I've been meaning to ask 1183 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 2: you this because this is one thing I've never I 1184 00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 2: just haven't done it a lot, so like I when 1185 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:01,800 Speaker 2: I do it, it's just kind of off, like live betting. 1186 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,840 Speaker 2: But like, at what point does it become profitable to 1187 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,280 Speaker 2: start looking for a middle Because I got the lines 1188 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,959 Speaker 2: at plus six it must have lasted like an hour. 1189 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 2: It was like Sunday afternoon, but yeah, two and a half. Like, like, 1190 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 2: what point, at what point should I be looking to 1191 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 2: just straight up middle this? Like one hundred percent? 1192 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 3: In general, if you have a position and then the 1193 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:25,240 Speaker 3: line moves, you're gonna make out. I think over the 1194 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 3: long run, you're gonna make more profit by just holding 1195 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 3: your plus ev position now instead of trying to middle 1196 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 3: it now. If you where it does make sense is 1197 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 3: if you don't really love the position and you're like, 1198 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 3: I know this is gonna move, let me go in 1199 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 3: and bet it, and I know it's gonna move here 1200 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 3: for an injury, and all I'm trying to do is 1201 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 3: middle it. But you like the lines at six, you 1202 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,919 Speaker 3: might as well keep it butt In this particular circumstance. 1203 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 2: Like I don't like them that much. 1204 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 3: Under three with a total of forty two, the chances 1205 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 3: of this game landing between two and six are not 1206 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 3: in sign So in this case, if you don't love 1207 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 3: the lines, you know I approached these things subjectively as 1208 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 3: well as some more art and science. If you don't 1209 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 3: love the lines, that would be a great you know, 1210 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 3: it's more than three and a half points crossing multiple 1211 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,440 Speaker 3: key numbers in the NFL with a low total, So 1212 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:19,959 Speaker 3: these numbers become even more important. So if you don't 1213 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,480 Speaker 3: love the lines, you don't have to put your full 1214 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 3: bet on what you put on the lines. But if 1215 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 3: you want to just throw a little bit on the bears, 1216 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 3: I think that's a plus EV play both of them. 1217 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 3: But if you made the line like four, taking six 1218 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 3: in a low scoring game plus ev bet and then 1219 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 3: laying two and a half when you met plus ev 1220 00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 3: beat with a higher chance of a middle than most 1221 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 3: games between two half six, all the key numbers. So 1222 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 3: that's the evaluation tool that I would use. 1223 00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, So to recap one more time, stuck going 1224 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 2: Packers Steelers under forty six, I'm going get Titans under 1225 00:58:55,720 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 2: forty four. Let's get into our favorite teaser in a week. Yeah, 1226 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 2: six point teasers don't don't change, don't tease me, try 1227 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 2: to please all right. For those unfamiliar with teasers, it's 1228 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:23,400 Speaker 2: when you get an extra amount of points for each 1229 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 2: bet that you're making. Usually the standard is a six 1230 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 2: point teaser, which means an eight point favorite becomes a 1231 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 2: two point favorite, an eight point underdog becomes a fourteen 1232 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 2: point underdog. So you can usually add as many teasers 1233 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 2: as you want, but it's usually two teams six points. 1234 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 2: Books usually charge minus one twenty four, but you can 1235 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 2: be profitable. Stucky has a lot of good content out 1236 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 2: on it. Just google Stucky and Teasers, or search Stucky 1237 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 2: and Teasers on the Action Network on Action network dot com. 1238 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 2: Stuck where you're going for week four? 1239 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of questions about teachers. Last week the 1240 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 3: teasers teasing across three and seven, one, six and now 1241 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 3: I got a lot of questions about it. So I 1242 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 3: actually did an updated teaser guide this week. It'll be 1243 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:05,320 Speaker 3: out on the app by the time you're listening to this, 1244 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 3: and on Action Network dot Com it'll ranked. I think 1245 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 3: there's eight or nine viable teaser options this week, so 1246 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 3: make sure you check that out. It'll be all the 1247 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 3: different rules and then some other things to consider. Some 1248 01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 3: things we talk about on here that you know, the 1249 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 3: total and various other factors. But I like to see Awks, 1250 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 3: like I mentioned the Bengals on Thursday Night Football. But 1251 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 3: for this I'll go with the Vikings. Already talked about 1252 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 3: this earlier game. I'll make a toss up. Cousin's playing 1253 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 3: at a high level. If I need a backdoor too, 1254 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 3: I can get it. But I think this is a 1255 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 3: close game. I'll take the home team that should be 1256 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 3: three to zero in the season catching over a touchdown. 1257 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,920 Speaker 3: I'll pair them with the Colts. This is just a 1258 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 3: no brainer for me. It's an ugly game. I mean, 1259 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 3: Miami was awful as you're gonna have set again. Total 1260 01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 3: is forty three, and I can get the Colts at 1261 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 3: over a touchdown. It's gonna be hard for either one 1262 01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 3: of these teams to pull away from the other. So 1263 01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 3: I'll take the Colts and the Vikings over a touchdown. 1264 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 2: You know what's funny, Miami's favored by two points. You 1265 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 2: know it's also worth two points when you throw the 1266 01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 2: ball to Jaywn Wado five yards behind the goal line, 1267 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 2: behind your own goal line and get tackled for a safety. Yo, 1268 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 2: I don't know I've ever seen something quite like I was. 1269 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 2: I like rub my eyes like Urban Meyer is that 1270 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 2: you like? It's like, how like why Brian Forrez? You 1271 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 2: know you tend to think that Dolphin staff is going 1272 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 2: to be sharp. Everyone was mad at everyone after that play, 1273 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 2: So I don't know, have you seen anything about that? 1274 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:33,520 Speaker 2: Like do we know whose fault? That was? 1275 01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 3: So bizarre? 1276 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 2: No, Like Jaywon Wattle mad that he got thrown the ball, 1277 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 2: Briset look mad that the play was called, The coaches 1278 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 2: look mad that it was a safety. So I'm like 1279 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,720 Speaker 2: wondering who was actually at fault for that? But man, 1280 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:46,840 Speaker 2: you have Yeah, if you haven't got a chance to 1281 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:49,760 Speaker 2: see this, just google Jaymon Wattle safety and you'll just 1282 01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:52,520 Speaker 2: see one of the dumbest football plays of all time. 1283 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 2: For my teaser, I'm going with I'm going with Cincinnati 1284 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 2: on Thursday, seven and a halfter, one and a half. 1285 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 2: I think that's a no brain And I like, there's 1286 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 2: a bunch of other favorites bobab like seven, seven and 1287 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 2: a half, six and a half that I really do 1288 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 2: not trust me. I don't trust the Packers, don't trust 1289 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 2: the Saints. I don't really trust the Titans, but I 1290 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,000 Speaker 2: trust them more than these other teams because Zach Wilson 1291 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:19,080 Speaker 2: has shown us nothing, you know, so far. He's facing 1292 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 2: some tough defenses. But again, Tennessee has been good on 1293 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 2: early downs against the past. This is the safest one 1294 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 2: I think to kind of go down. I always like 1295 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:29,640 Speaker 2: going with the favorites down more than the underdog's up. 1296 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 2: I don't know why. It's just kind of a personal style. 1297 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 2: There's still not many worlds where I see the Jets 1298 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 2: actually winning this game. So Tennessee Cincinnati teasing him down. 1299 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 2: You know, hold your nose when it comes to Tennessee 1300 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 2: because it might be uglier than we think. But yeah, 1301 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:46,760 Speaker 2: that's gonna do it. For the teaser segment, Stuck has 1302 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 2: Indianapolis teasing them from two to eight, Minnesota teasing them 1303 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:51,000 Speaker 2: from one and a half to seven and a half. 1304 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 2: I'm going Tennessee seven to one, Cincinnati seven and a half, two, 1305 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 2: one and a half. And now it is time for 1306 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 2: our money line underdog parlay. 1307 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 3: Turning good weekends into great weekends. 1308 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 2: It's time for the money line parlay. And when I 1309 01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:15,600 Speaker 2: say our money line underdog parlay, I should say, are 1310 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 2: two and one money line underdog parlay? Last week you 1311 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 2: had the Saints, I had the Packers, And somehow we've 1312 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 2: hit on what like four out of six money line 1313 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 2: underdogs combined this year. So it's been a pretty good 1314 01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 2: year for us on these money line dog parlays. And 1315 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:32,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let you go first because now I feel 1316 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 2: like I have so many options, I might have to 1317 01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 2: change my pick while you're talking. So start us off 1318 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 2: and tell us where you're going this week as we 1319 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:38,960 Speaker 2: try to go to three and one. 1320 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:41,560 Speaker 3: Well, last week it faded the Patriots, but this week 1321 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:45,440 Speaker 3: we're going to the Patriots in a fascinating game money 1322 01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 3: line against the Tampa Bay Box. Tom Brady's returned to Foxborough. 1323 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 3: I'm sure you've heard about it. Look, the Patriots haven't 1324 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:54,760 Speaker 3: been great this year, but they should be three. And 1325 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:58,480 Speaker 3: now they all played Miami. They obviously dominated the Jets, 1326 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 3: and they played in New Orleans and just had a 1327 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:04,680 Speaker 3: couple of bad bounces go against them. Not the most 1328 01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 3: potent offenses in the world. But here's what this comes 1329 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 3: down to. I mean, number one, there's this value the 1330 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,240 Speaker 3: number to me, I can't get just seven or more. 1331 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,840 Speaker 3: I don't know how I accounting for the home field 1332 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:17,920 Speaker 3: some of the Tampa Bay injuries. Dean might play. It's 1333 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 3: worth keeping an eye out. But their secondary is a mess. 1334 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 3: It's their best, Yeah, Richard Sherman, I mean, I don't 1335 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:25,920 Speaker 3: know what you can expect him to do in this 1336 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 3: scheme at his age right now, but yeah, it's the 1337 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 3: defense hasn't been playing. 1338 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 2: Well at all. 1339 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 3: They haven't been getting to the quarterback. Their secondary has 1340 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 3: been getting abused. Teams are just coming out and passing 1341 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 3: against them all day, which you should do. You shouldn't 1342 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,439 Speaker 3: try to run at all. New England likes to run, 1343 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 3: so it's not the best matchup of them and James 1344 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:45,320 Speaker 3: White is out now, it's kind of the security blanket 1345 01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:48,080 Speaker 3: for Mac Jones. Be curious to see how they approach this. 1346 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 3: What I think they're going to do now, this is 1347 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,080 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have a write up for this game. I'm 1348 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 3: assuming that Bill Belichick has something drawn up for Brady 1349 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,960 Speaker 3: that he was in the lab cooking up this summer. 1350 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:03,920 Speaker 3: Ex assistance Brady has some success against him. We saw 1351 01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 3: Vrabel do it in the playoffs. The last time he 1352 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 3: played in Fox for he threw that pick six at 1353 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:10,800 Speaker 3: the end. You know, we saw Flores do it when 1354 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 3: the Dolphins upset the Patriots somehow at the end of 1355 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:18,080 Speaker 3: the season in twenty nineteen. We even saw Matt Patricia 1356 01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 3: do it in the highlight of his career when they 1357 01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 3: won his seven point underdogs at home in Week three 1358 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:28,440 Speaker 3: against the Patriots. This kind of reminds me of the 1359 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 3: spot last year when the Patriots were seven point underdogs 1360 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:35,440 Speaker 3: against the Ravens. They were two and six, the Ravens 1361 01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:37,880 Speaker 3: were six and two. No one gave them a shot, 1362 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:39,960 Speaker 3: the Patriots one. They came up the good game plan. 1363 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,280 Speaker 3: But when I assume the Patriot could do it, They're 1364 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 3: gonna go really slow. They're gonna try to keep the 1365 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 3: ball to Brady's hands, and then they're gonna dare the 1366 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 3: Bucks to run it, and they're just gonna say guy 1367 01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:49,560 Speaker 3: had to run it. And then they're gonna have some 1368 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 3: kind of exotic look. They're obviously gonna have some simulated pressure. 1369 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 3: Just something that Bill Belichick has schemed up here to 1370 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 3: try and confuse Brady. Should be a fascinating chess match. 1371 01:05:59,560 --> 01:06:01,520 Speaker 3: So I think there is high variance here in that 1372 01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 3: Who knows what Belichick's gonna come up with I think 1373 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:06,840 Speaker 3: the I think this game actually plays to an under. 1374 01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:09,640 Speaker 3: It's crazy to say that the Bucks game that's forty nine, 1375 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 3: but I think that they're gonna sold up. They're gonna 1376 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 3: dare the Bucks to run shorten this game. So I 1377 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:18,320 Speaker 3: think there's value in this number. And it's a fascinating 1378 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,919 Speaker 3: chess match in Bill we trust. I could go through 1379 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 3: stats for days here, you know, off of the loss, 1380 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 3: but they're all kind of correlated because they were together. 1381 01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 3: Belichick off A lost forty five and twenty against the 1382 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 3: spread sixty nine point two percent. But Brady off I 1383 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 3: lost forty one and fourteen against the spread seventy four 1384 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 3: and a half percent. But he's just ten and eleven 1385 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:41,320 Speaker 3: against the spread. Win a favor by a touchdown or more. Yeah, 1386 01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 3: give me the Pats this week. We went against last 1387 01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 3: week one against them. This week, we'll go with them. 1388 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 3: Pull the stunner. 1389 01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:47,919 Speaker 2: I was pretty sure you're going to take the Jets 1390 01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:49,800 Speaker 2: and the Steers in the six pack. I did not 1391 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:52,200 Speaker 2: think you were going to take the Pats. I'll be honest, 1392 01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 2: that's one of the more surprising ones. I have no 1393 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 2: take on this game. I just it's very hard for 1394 01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 2: me to handicap Belichick versus Brady, especially with like you say, 1395 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 2: all these competing trends and bellich Check and Foxburg and 1396 01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:05,080 Speaker 2: Brady coming off the loss and this and that. So 1397 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 2: I mean, it's interesting, it's spicy. Let's see, let's see 1398 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:11,760 Speaker 2: how this goes. It's it's plus two twenty five, so 1399 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 2: you know it's there, and I'm gonna I'm gonna kind 1400 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,560 Speaker 2: of go right in line with that and go with 1401 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:23,000 Speaker 2: another big underdog. I'm gonna take the Giants plus two eighty. 1402 01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 2: I already mentioned Sean Payton in these spots failing to 1403 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 2: cover by eleven, you know, over eleven points a game. Well, 1404 01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 2: the line is only seven and a half, so if 1405 01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:32,880 Speaker 2: they failed to cover by eleven a half plus, they're 1406 01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 2: losing this game. Jamis Winston twelve and eleven on the 1407 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 2: money line is a favorite, So there's about a fifty 1408 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 2: right under a fifty percent chance, almost a coin flip, 1409 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 2: that Jamis loses outright as a favorite, and you're getting 1410 01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:48,960 Speaker 2: plus two eighty, you're getting implied like a thirty percent 1411 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:52,440 Speaker 2: chance of winning. So give me the Giants. In this 1412 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 2: spot you mentioned it. This is the kind of game 1413 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,280 Speaker 2: they kind of muck up they make it look nasty, 1414 01:07:57,560 --> 01:08:01,600 Speaker 2: you know. And you know, I wouldn't be surprised. Everyone thought 1415 01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:05,440 Speaker 2: they were gonna get that win against the Falcons. They didn't. 1416 01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 2: You know, they probably should have got one against Washington 1417 01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:10,000 Speaker 2: they didn't. Who wouldn't be surprised if this is the 1418 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 2: spot they get, they get that one win and then 1419 01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:15,400 Speaker 2: and then this is the giant script. Yeah, this is it. 1420 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 2: So and this is a juicy parlay. So we are 1421 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:22,680 Speaker 2: we are really kind of feeling ourselves after going two 1422 01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 2: and won. So far plus two twenty five and plus 1423 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 2: two eighty. That's a payout on one hundred dollars bet 1424 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,080 Speaker 2: of one hundred and thirty five hours. So you put 1425 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 2: in one hundred, your payout is twelve thirty five. So 1426 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 2: you're getting over ten to one odds here. If we 1427 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 2: go three and one, I mean, we might have to 1428 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:40,519 Speaker 2: take the rest of the year off or they might 1429 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:42,680 Speaker 2: just have to give us a raise or something like that, 1430 01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:45,840 Speaker 2: because uh, this would be ridiculous if we hit this one. 1431 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 2: But giant, we'll be back to it. 1432 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 3: We'll be back to our short dogs next week now, 1433 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 3: Im kidding. Let's get it done. I can see both women. 1434 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,519 Speaker 2: Let's go and the one time I picked the short dog. 1435 01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 2: I lost. I picked it. Oh well, now I guess 1436 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 2: I picked the package, but I picked the Cincinnati BEng 1437 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 2: goes a short dog that didn't work out. So yeah, 1438 01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 2: that's uh, Giants plus two eighty and the Patriots plus 1439 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 2: two twenty five. Again, it's over a ten to one payout. Hey, 1440 01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 2: can't go back, can't go wrong with that. Let's get 1441 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 2: into the best of the rest, which are the games 1442 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,960 Speaker 2: that we did not talk about in any other segment. 1443 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:17,840 Speaker 2: All right, Sote. First up, we got the Kansas City 1444 01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,679 Speaker 2: Chiefs at the Philadelphia Eagles. The Linus seven in favor 1445 01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:24,799 Speaker 2: of the Chiefs. The total this fifty four and a half. 1446 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:27,320 Speaker 2: I kind of want to take the Eagles. I mean, 1447 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 2: the Chiefs just don't cover big numbers, if covering numbers 1448 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 2: at all. But I'm I'm also interested in the total 1449 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:35,360 Speaker 2: on this game. I wanted to hear your opinion for 1450 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 2: some reason. When teams go to Wink and Financial and 1451 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,120 Speaker 2: this is this spid is not just like Carson Wentz 1452 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,720 Speaker 2: and Peterson. It's just like since twenty fifteen, which is 1453 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,040 Speaker 2: pre Peterson and pre Wentz and post them obviously thirty 1454 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 2: and twelve when the total opens forty four higher at 1455 01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:52,439 Speaker 2: Lincoln Financial thirty four and twelve seventy one percent to 1456 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 2: the under. So this seems like it could be an 1457 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 2: ugly game. They gotta play that gannon defense. They're gonna 1458 01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:00,280 Speaker 2: leave two safeties back in two deeper quarters. And we 1459 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 2: know the Chiefs, even if they score, they're gonna take. 1460 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 2: They're gonna it's gonna be a tenth Way to oh 1461 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:07,160 Speaker 2: Way drive. So, uh, what are your thoughts on this one? 1462 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:11,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like I like the Eagles even after that 1463 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,400 Speaker 3: disaster last week. I knew I would. The whole world 1464 01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:16,160 Speaker 3: will be on the Chiefs. You know, this line last 1465 01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 3: week was five five and a half. Siriane was a 1466 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 3: mess last week. I mean wearing the beat Dallas shirt, 1467 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:23,639 Speaker 3: you know, and then he's not running the ball at all. 1468 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 3: There's no adjustments, And uh what, I think it's a 1469 01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:29,639 Speaker 3: good thing for this week. I think that they're gonna 1470 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,880 Speaker 3: run it a lot and they're gonna use Miles Sanders, 1471 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,479 Speaker 3: who should be fresh. If they're getting two carries U 1472 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 3: for twenty seven yards last week, that's all you gotta 1473 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 3: do against the Chiefs. This Chiefs. 1474 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:39,719 Speaker 2: The reason the Chiefs can't. 1475 01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 3: Cover, by the way, Mahomes went one of for one 1476 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 3: of fourteen for six yards or two picks under pressure 1477 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:46,920 Speaker 3: last week. I think the Eagles can get some pressure 1478 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,599 Speaker 3: with that defensive line. But the Chiefs are owing three 1479 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:51,639 Speaker 3: against the spread. They're all in ten against the spread 1480 01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 3: their last ten games when favored by more than a 1481 01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 3: field goal, and they're one twelve and one against the 1482 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 3: spread the last fourteen. Why a couple of reasons. Their 1483 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:03,240 Speaker 3: defense states they're thirty second DBA overall, thirty second against 1484 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,920 Speaker 3: the run, thirty second against the past. They have no 1485 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:08,519 Speaker 3: one in their front seven who can cover tight ends, 1486 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:10,639 Speaker 3: who can cover backs. You can defend the run outside 1487 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 3: of Chris Jones. That's it. Frank Clark stinks, by the way, 1488 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 3: so please don't say his name. The Eagles should be 1489 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:17,479 Speaker 3: able to run the ball, They should be able to 1490 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:20,679 Speaker 3: use their tight ends. They should be able to run hurts. 1491 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 3: Anyone could pretty much keep up with cheese. Go back 1492 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,960 Speaker 3: to last year. It's not it's hard for them to 1493 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 3: cover at number seven and a half. You can get 1494 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:30,800 Speaker 3: seven and a half, which I got earlier this week. 1495 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 3: Seven's fine too, you know, I make this closer to 1496 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 3: five and a half. Five. It's just the Chiefs defense 1497 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 3: is that bad, that's why they're not covering. And then 1498 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 3: there's also a premium on the Homes and read right, 1499 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 3: they were always so good against the spread and everyone 1500 01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,320 Speaker 3: always wanted to back them, and rightfully so. But then 1501 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:51,439 Speaker 3: you know there's an extra point or two in the 1502 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:53,360 Speaker 3: market and it just caught up to them and their 1503 01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 3: defense is just so bad. So yeah, I think Gannon 1504 01:11:58,080 --> 01:11:59,639 Speaker 3: will come up with a good game pin here. Hopefully 1505 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 3: Seria cleans up the penalties. He's not been impressed in 1506 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 3: the past two weeks, but Ganna came up helped Iberfluts 1507 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:08,759 Speaker 3: come up with a great game plan. In twenty nineteen 1508 01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 3: against the Chiefs, they switched up their entire defense. They 1509 01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 3: went more man the heart, pressed man on the outside, 1510 01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 3: and the Colts never do that, and they held Mahomes, 1511 01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:20,360 Speaker 3: who'd scored at least twenty six points every game of 1512 01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:23,639 Speaker 3: his career, to thirteen points. They won nineteen to thirteen. 1513 01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:26,000 Speaker 3: I think that game was in ra shocker of an upset. 1514 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:29,280 Speaker 3: So I think we'll see a good defensive game plan. 1515 01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 3: They'll they'll take away the explosive plays, and I think 1516 01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:35,439 Speaker 3: they can get pressure on Mahomes. But most importantly, I 1517 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,320 Speaker 3: think the Philadelphia offense can keep up now because I 1518 01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 3: think the Philadelphia offense is any sort of juggernaut. It's 1519 01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 3: they're an NFL team playing the Chiefs and they're catching 1520 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,040 Speaker 3: seven and a half at home. I know it's a 1521 01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:48,679 Speaker 3: bad spot off Monday night football on the road. Teams 1522 01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,679 Speaker 3: coming off Monday Night football on the road, then coming 1523 01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:55,200 Speaker 3: home on a short week one twenty four one sixty 1524 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 3: one and eleven against the Spreadits forty three and a 1525 01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,559 Speaker 3: half percent different story than you're catching a touchdown or 1526 01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:03,439 Speaker 3: more at home to count of that team's coming Why 1527 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 3: this is a Bilow spot Everyone wants to sell the 1528 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:08,040 Speaker 3: Eagles after what they saw on National TV. Team's coming 1529 01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,639 Speaker 3: off a twenty plus point loss and now they're home 1530 01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:15,519 Speaker 3: dogs the next week of more than five points, so 1531 01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 3: everyone's you know, it got blown out. The next week 1532 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 3: their home dogs and at least five points. This also 1533 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:24,639 Speaker 3: applies to the Jets since two thousand and three seventy five, 1534 01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:27,439 Speaker 3: forty seven and two against the spread sixty one and 1535 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 3: a half percent. So I like the Eagles that anything 1536 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:34,120 Speaker 3: seven or above. It's hard to see the Chiefs losing 1537 01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 3: another game and dropping to one and three. They're zero 1538 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 3: and three against the spread. But my prediction is we 1539 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:44,439 Speaker 3: probably don't see that and reads return. You know a 1540 01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 3: lot of homecomings this week. My prediction is the Chiefs 1541 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 3: win another game, but I call it four this time. 1542 01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:54,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see that. I don't see them losing. 1543 01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:56,840 Speaker 2: I do see the ugly game though. I'm probably leaning 1544 01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 2: under on this one. And you like the Eagles, you know, 1545 01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:02,400 Speaker 2: I can't. I can't argue with it. I mean, the 1546 01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 2: Chiefs just haven't covered and Mahomes is now because they 1547 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,160 Speaker 2: were winning those games that they weren't covering. Now they're 1548 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 2: not because Mahomes is making uncharacteristic mistakes. And let's be honest, 1549 01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:13,559 Speaker 2: he really hasn't looked right against pressure since the Super Bowl. 1550 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if there was some type of booprint 1551 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,960 Speaker 2: out there, whereas that was the last game everyone saw, 1552 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 2: everyone studied it, you know, but teams, the Chiefs haven't 1553 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:22,959 Speaker 2: looked quite as invincible. But let's go to Houston at Buffalo. 1554 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 2: Buffalo seventeen point favorite. The total was forty seven. 1555 01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 3: Nothing near. I mean, favorites are more than two touchdowns. 1556 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 3: Since twenty three, forty forty and two against the spread. 1557 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,760 Speaker 3: Buffalo has been trying out different things. It's a hard 1558 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:36,720 Speaker 3: game to project. Like they they're back to now more zone. 1559 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 3: They went one week where they were playing a lot 1560 01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 3: of men and then they were trying eleven personnel for why. 1561 01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:42,960 Speaker 3: So they're tinkering with things. Of these games they know 1562 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 3: they can win. I doubt they show much here. They 1563 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:47,759 Speaker 3: might try some things. They have the Chiefs on deck, 1564 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:52,400 Speaker 3: big revenge game. They might sit on this. I make 1565 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,120 Speaker 3: the line spot on this is and I just don't 1566 01:14:55,120 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 3: touch this game. 1567 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:59,639 Speaker 2: Carolina at Dallas. Dallas four and a half point favorites 1568 01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:02,160 Speaker 2: to total fifty and a half. I've actually liked what 1569 01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:04,639 Speaker 2: I've seen out of Dallas's defense. It might sound crazy, 1570 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,559 Speaker 2: but I think Diggs is playing very well. I think 1571 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:10,879 Speaker 2: Michael Parsons helps that defense. I'm tempted to take Dallas 1572 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 2: in the under here, but I might just stay away. 1573 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 2: I just we've seen We've seen a lot of good 1574 01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 2: things out of Carolina. What do you think of this one? 1575 01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:19,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm leaning towards Dallas here. I was really impressed. 1576 01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 3: Our defense is flying around, obviously benefiting from turnover luck. 1577 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 3: So there's turnover luck, and then the Carolina has one 1578 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:27,200 Speaker 3: of the easiest schedules you ever see them, and they 1579 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 3: played two rookie quarterbacks. They played the Saints in an 1580 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:33,639 Speaker 3: awful spot with a decimated you know, they had injuries, 1581 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,599 Speaker 3: they had missing eight assistants, so we didn't really learn 1582 01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:39,120 Speaker 3: much about them. They do have a long week. They 1583 01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 3: have long preparation though, so they played Thursday and then 1584 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:44,559 Speaker 3: the Cowboys played Monday, so there's like three or four 1585 01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 3: extra days. There's no McCaffrey, and Hubbard hasn't impressed me. 1586 01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:50,439 Speaker 3: I think that's ultimately going to be the difference is 1587 01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 3: no McCaffrey in this game, and I'll take Dak the 1588 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,679 Speaker 3: way Dak is playing right now over Sam Darnold every 1589 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 3: day of the week, and McCaffrey would have been big, 1590 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:01,480 Speaker 3: because I think that's how you exploit this. This Cowboys 1591 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:04,040 Speaker 3: defense is with the with your backs, which the Eagles 1592 01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 3: obviously failed to realize. And also Panthers are without three 1593 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:10,040 Speaker 3: of their five defensive backs that they used in nickel 1594 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 3: situations in Week one. Burris is hurt, their safety J. C. 1595 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 3: Horn is out for an extended time, their first round 1596 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 3: draft pick at corner, and Miles Hartsfield is out as well, 1597 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:23,200 Speaker 3: so that causing the trade for CJ. Henderson, who is 1598 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:25,519 Speaker 3: going to play this week like he's learning a whole 1599 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:28,599 Speaker 3: new defense against Dak. That's gonna be a messy. So 1600 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:30,800 Speaker 3: I lean Cowboys here, even though it's a bad spot 1601 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 3: in a short week against a team in a long week. 1602 01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 3: Give me Dak over Darnold any day of the week. 1603 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:37,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's not usually the type of pick I make, 1604 01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:39,559 Speaker 2: you know, favorite in that dead zone four and a half, 1605 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 2: But I could see this like thirty four to seven 1606 01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 2: Cowboys Washington ated Wanta. I got Washington at plus one 1607 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:49,439 Speaker 2: and a half. Now they're minus one and a half. 1608 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 2: I'd probably stay away here. It's just another coin flip game. 1609 01:16:52,520 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 2: The one thing about this game for me is that 1610 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:56,720 Speaker 2: Atlanta the reason I, you know, I faded them the 1611 01:16:56,760 --> 01:17:00,120 Speaker 2: first two weeks, picked them last week because it was like, Okay, 1612 01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:01,760 Speaker 2: they're not gonna have They're not gonna be outgunn in 1613 01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,760 Speaker 2: the trenches. Even though Washington and you called this before 1614 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 2: the season or defense has them good, they're still third 1615 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,280 Speaker 2: in the league in pressure rate. I still think they 1616 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:11,799 Speaker 2: are better on both sides the ball in the trenches, 1617 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 2: and in a coin flip game, I'm gonna side with Washington. 1618 01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 2: But I just wouldn't touch this now that their favorite 1619 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 2: What do you think? 1620 01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 3: What is wrong with the Falcons? Arthur Spit The Falcons 1621 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,400 Speaker 3: off with thirty second ranked rush offense and twenty eighth 1622 01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 3: ranked passing offense. They did nothing last week. The Giants 1623 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:31,679 Speaker 3: had some injuries. They got just dominated by the Eagles. 1624 01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 3: In Week one. 1625 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:33,720 Speaker 2: They actually played with the. 1626 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:36,080 Speaker 3: Bucks into the fourth quarter, which tells you about how 1627 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,600 Speaker 3: that Bucks defense is playing. Not great right now? That 1628 01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:41,479 Speaker 3: was the Falcon's best game, twenty eight twenty five in 1629 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,920 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter for a couple of pick sixes. But yeah, 1630 01:17:43,920 --> 01:17:46,680 Speaker 3: this Falcons team is a mess right now? Is the 1631 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:50,479 Speaker 3: well the Washington defense step up and make plays that 1632 01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:52,680 Speaker 3: the Falcons defense is also a mess as well. I 1633 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:54,080 Speaker 3: don't hate it, but nothing for me there. 1634 01:17:55,160 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 2: And finally, the Cardinals at the Rams. This is probably 1635 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 2: what I'm just gonna enjoy the game. You know, it's 1636 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 2: in that dead zone. It's minus five for the Rams. 1637 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 2: Fifty four and a half is a total. It was 1638 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 2: at six for a while and I thought about the Carters, 1639 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:09,880 Speaker 2: but it quickly moved down. I didn't get a chance 1640 01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:11,559 Speaker 2: to hop in, so it's a stay away from me. 1641 01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:12,160 Speaker 2: What do you think? 1642 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:14,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I make it five. I think five 1643 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 3: fifty four, five fifty three, I mean I make it right. 1644 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:19,840 Speaker 3: There are the Rams gonna have a little letdown. I 1645 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:21,920 Speaker 3: mean McVeigh was running all over the field. A little 1646 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:26,160 Speaker 3: emotional letdown here. I don't know. McVeigh has owned the Cardinals. 1647 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 3: He's eight to zero against them in his tenure with 1648 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 3: the Rams. Murray ohero and four against the Rams QB 1649 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,880 Speaker 3: rating seventy five one hundred and eighty seven passing yards 1650 01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:41,400 Speaker 3: per game, five touchdowns, four interceptions, thirteen rushes forty six yards, 1651 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 3: one touchdown, three lost fumbles. That means he has six 1652 01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:48,880 Speaker 3: total touchdowns and seven turnovers in the four games, all 1653 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 3: losses against the Rams. He's only rushed for forty six yards. 1654 01:18:52,360 --> 01:18:56,240 Speaker 3: He's taken eleven sacks for ninety one yards. So the 1655 01:18:56,360 --> 01:19:02,320 Speaker 3: Rams seem to have Cardinals number here. We'll see what 1656 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 3: Arizona can do. The Rams are the fastest offense in 1657 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:08,960 Speaker 3: the NFL neutral pay situation, so it's tough to back 1658 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:11,720 Speaker 3: to back it under here with these you know, two 1659 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 3: high flying offenses, but divisional game two undefeated teams, I 1660 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:18,759 Speaker 3: can I can see it being, you know, starting slower 1661 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,719 Speaker 3: than some would anticipate, but nothing for me here. 1662 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 2: Gun In my head, I go with the Rams here. 1663 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:26,320 Speaker 2: They've just dominated and I don't think the Cardinals have 1664 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:29,720 Speaker 2: anyone to cover Cooper Cup. But let's get into our 1665 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:34,160 Speaker 2: last segment, and that's our Survivor Pool pick of the week. 1666 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:40,599 Speaker 3: The Survivorpool pick of the week. 1667 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:44,280 Speaker 2: All right, stug, we're both still alive. You went San 1668 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,120 Speaker 2: Fran Cleveland, Denver. I went stan Fran Green Bay, Carolina 1669 01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:49,880 Speaker 2: in the first three. Where are you going before? I mean, 1670 01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 2: the Bills are the obvious pick, but they're the Bills. 1671 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 3: Are one of the best teams in the NFL. I want 1672 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:55,880 Speaker 3: to obviously save them. And there's a lot of these 1673 01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:58,559 Speaker 3: seven point favorites that are scary to me that I 1674 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:00,840 Speaker 3: can see losing, and I hope some of them do that. 1675 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,160 Speaker 3: I bet against theid for Survivor, but I went with 1676 01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:05,000 Speaker 3: the Bengals. When am I going to use the Bengals again? 1677 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:07,680 Speaker 3: I don't know, Probably not, So this is a good 1678 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:09,280 Speaker 3: week to use the Bengals in my opinion. I'm using 1679 01:20:09,280 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 3: Bengals on Thursday Night. 1680 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:13,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you here. I'm going Bengals too. I mean, 1681 01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:15,760 Speaker 2: it's only right for me to continue to fade Urban 1682 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,360 Speaker 2: and I agree the Bills you could use them against 1683 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:20,439 Speaker 2: Still two games against the Jets coming up for the Bills, 1684 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:23,639 Speaker 2: so I want to save them. That's gonna do it. 1685 01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:27,520 Speaker 2: For the Action Network NFL Podcast for Week four, presented 1686 01:20:27,680 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 2: by bet MGM.
