We got football tonight, 4 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 2: should be a great one, Packers at Lions. We'll have 5 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: a best bet at the end of the podcast. But 6 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 2: to break it down and some other games here in 7 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: week fourteen is the crack man Bill Krackenberger, you know him, 8 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: Vegas dude, big Better. When we post this on YouTube, 9 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: you guys will enjoy it because he actually shows his 10 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: phone and some of the bets that he's made. And 11 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,639 Speaker 2: you know, listen, I'm not encouraging you guys to bet 12 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 2: at his level. He is a big better. I definitely 13 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: the only bet which you can afford to lose, obviously, 14 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: but he is heavily invested in some games this weekend 15 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: and I think you guys will greatly enjoy that. So 16 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: we'll get to Bill shortly, but first I got it briefly, 17 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 2: just briefly talk about the basketball last night. And no, 18 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: it wasn't Duke covering for me. No, it wasn't Yukon 19 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: covering for me. If you followed on ig you saw 20 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: those boom boom really good night. It was uh. And 21 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 2: I'm not even talking about the Sixers losing to Orlando 22 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: and home Sixers fault of five and fifteen. They did 23 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 2: not have Paul George, they did not have Joel Embiid, 24 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: and they lost to Orlando. They're five and fifteen. They're 25 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 2: very bad right now. But I'm not talking about them. 26 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about the Clippers who lost by a 27 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: billy to Minnesota at home on a back to back, 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. I'm talking about the Lakers who lost 29 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: by forty one points in Miami. I thought maybe they 30 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: had the South Beach flu. They were down what like 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: twenty at halftime, close to at fifteen twenty something like that, 32 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: and it got ugly in the third quarter, and then 33 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 2: of course afterward, JJ Reddick gives it impassion plea. He's embarrassed. 34 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: Magic Johnson goes on Twitter, He's embarrassed. It was not 35 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: the Lakers suited up somebody and I did not totally 36 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: watch all of this, and the Lakers had their most 37 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: of their guys. No, Austin Reeves hurts, he's a he's 38 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: a good defender, he's a kind of a leader out 39 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 2: there on offense. They played somebody. You guys don't have 40 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: a big, big college basketball guy. I've literally never heard 41 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 2: of this twenty one year old gentleman name Armel trau 42 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 2: oh trowe tr r E. I've never heard his name 43 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: in my life. And I clicked on his bio because 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 2: I'm watching the game, and I'm like, damn, I don't 45 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 2: recognize the guy. Where DoD you go to college? 46 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 3: And he did. 47 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: He's French. Yeah, I'd never heard of him. And he 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: played like big minutes last night because Lakers got blown 49 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 2: out fourth quarter, watse extensive garbage time and listen, man, 50 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 2: Lakers are struggling right now. Shooting. Lebron snapped out of 51 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: his funk. He had twenty nine and eight twelve of 52 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: eighteen shooting made a three, ending that ugly streak. But 53 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: offensively total, Bessers shot twenty two percent for three. They 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 2: made five threes. Tyler me Hero made nine. Tyler Hero 55 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 2: had thirty one points. Tyler Hero made more threes than 56 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: the entire Lakers team and he only played twenty seven minutes. 57 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: The Lakers are, as my son likes to say, they're 58 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 2: down bad right now. They are twelve and ten, but 59 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 2: the losses are mounting. They have lost. Let's count them 60 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: up here. So two in a row, three of four 61 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 2: and oh my gosh, three four, six of eight. They're spiraling, 62 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: and you know, nobody's really I mean, JJ Reddick kept saying, 63 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 2: you know, I take ownership, but at some level on 64 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: the court, the guy's got to get it done. This 65 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: is a Lakers team that was ten and four rolling, 66 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: and you know, I think I was watching it live 67 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: and I may have talked about it briefly on the pod, 68 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: but I think it was a Sunday night, the Lakers 69 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: were playing in the Orlando Magic. Lebron was having an 70 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: incredible game. Anthony Davis misses a bunch of free throws, 71 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: missed I think two with like ten seconds left or something. 72 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: Maybe it was twenty seconds left, and then one of 73 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: the Wagner brother come down and hits them long three 74 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 2: and they win the game. They have not rebounded from 75 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 2: that loss. That sent them in a downward spiral, and 76 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: it got ugly. The Lebron's out there saying, hey, I 77 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 2: agree with everything JJ Reddicks said. I mean, Reddick's talking. 78 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: You know, he's pretty I like what Redick's done on 79 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: the court, and I like what he's saying off the court, 80 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: he's not holding back, He's gonna hold these guys accountable. 81 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: Darvinam didn't totally do that, which is understandable. Come on, 82 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 2: you're in a locker room with Lebron and Ad. The 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: Lakers brand probably strongest or second, it's gotta be the strongest, 84 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 2: but maybe the Celtics brand is stronger right now, Warriors 85 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 2: brand is stronger, whatever, But bottom line is the Lakers 86 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: they got humiliated, and honestly, and I don't mean to 87 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: be critical, and I'm not watching every minute of every 88 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 2: game right now, but it seems like they're the kind 89 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: of boxing team where if they get punched in the mouth, 90 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: they can't recover. I mean, these are They got beat 91 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 2: by the Timberwolves by twenty nine. Okay, I know it. 92 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: I know it was a back to back. They were 93 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 2: competitive against the Thunder. They got smoked by the Suns 94 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 2: by twenty seven. The Nuggets blew them out by twenty five. 95 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 2: When they lose, they're getting blasted. And you know, Rob 96 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 2: g had talked a little bit about, you know, Lebron, 97 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 2: and a couple other people have said, you know, maybe 98 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 2: they're better with Lebron off the court. I just don't 99 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: know how that is obviously without Reeves. And again Austin 100 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 2: Reeves no time All Star. I know you guys aren't 101 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: gonna think he's a factor. Austin Reeves is really frickin 102 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: good and he's integral. He can handle, he can shoot, 103 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: he can create, he can defend like he can do everything. 104 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: I like Dalton Connect a lot, but Dalton Knnec doesn't 105 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 2: look like Dalton Connect has looked. Without Austin Reeves in 106 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 2: the lineups, He's a totally different guy. Defenses can gear 107 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 2: toward him. I mean, last Connect was so hot, and 108 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: in the last three games, no Austin Reeves, He's two 109 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: for ten, three for eight, one for four, he is 110 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: one for twelve from deep. He's just nothing's and a 111 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 2: lot of that is no Austin Reefs. And I know, 112 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 2: a Jason, if your season's falling apart because Austin Reeves 113 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 2: is not there, you're screwed. You could argue that too. Ultimately, 114 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: this is a tough stretch for the Lakers. I'm not 115 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: gonna sugarcoat it. I'm not here. The next up is 116 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: the Atlanta Hawks. They're playing well. They got this kid, 117 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: Jalen Johnson. You guys might remember him. He went to Duke. 118 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 2: He was like a five star, went to Duke. Quit 119 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: in the middle of the season for whatever reason. You know, 120 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 2: this was like the COVID year. But he quit, and 121 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: all these people bash the hell out of him, all 122 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: the college basketball purist guys you know that cover the sport. 123 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 2: They're just like, oh, he's a quitter, and they're just 124 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: trashing the kid. And I'm like, guys, can we take 125 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 2: a deep breath here. He's super talented. He's gonna get 126 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 2: a jump on the NBA process, Like, why are we 127 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: just destroying the kid? Four years later, Jalen Johnson, he's 128 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: averaging like twenty eight and five. Looks like a foundational 129 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 2: building block right now for the Atlanta Hawks. Honestly, he's 130 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 2: gonna make it easier for them to trade Trey Young. 131 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 2: The guy defends really well. I saw somebody compare him 132 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: to like Scottie Pippen is like, that's not gonna be 133 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: an easy game in Atlanta. Now, this is a long 134 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 2: road trip. That's the final game. Then they go home 135 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 2: for Portland, Minnesota, Memphis, home and home with sacrabto Christmas 136 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: Day against the Warriors. Warriors are really too By the way, 137 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: Oh listen, I don't like piling on the Lakers. It's 138 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: it's just tough time for them. So they dropped to 139 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 2: twelve and ten. Sky's not falling, just a tough stretch. 140 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 2: These are gonna happen. They're twenty two games in, so 141 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: that's like a little more than a fourth of the season. 142 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: But I just wanted to quickly touch on the Lakers 143 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 2: before we get to the crack Man.

And you know, as these games go on 169 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: to these type of championship games, and as they get 170 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 3: closer to the you know, the big tournament, these games 171 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 3: get so much harder handicapped. They don't like an NFL game, 172 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 3: they really are. Their NFL sides are very hard to beat. 173 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 3: I do dabble in a little bit living in Las Veggas. 174 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: We get extra half of points here though, so I'm 175 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 3: really fortunate to get extra half of points on games, 176 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 3: whereas a lot of America you really only have a 177 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 3: choice or two and they don't have maybe those local 178 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 3: casinos here. We have local casinos here, that have a 179 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 3: square fan base in volume, people bet in the fifties 180 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 3: hundreds hundred dollars. It adds up. They have to overmove 181 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 3: the lines and get some two way action. Our local 182 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 3: casinos are really juicy for me. Now this game, we 183 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 3: actually took a lead. The think at the current line 184 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 3: right now. This game, I actually took a little bit 185 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 3: which I thought was a little bit of a lead here. 186 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: I took you on a V plus four and a half. Yeah, 187 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 3: let's get the current now it is, believe it or not. 188 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 3: See living here in Vegas, there's still one four and 189 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 3: a half. Four is everywhere one four and a half, 190 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 3: and so really got ahead of it. Just to hair 191 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: it's a medium bet for me. I did bet. Like 192 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: I said, these games are tough. When they get to 193 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 3: these championship type of games, they get a little bit tougher. 194 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 3: But you actually picked one of the few games that 195 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 3: I did bet on this weekend. I bet the UMLV 196 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 3: plus four and a half and that game's on Friday. Actual. 197 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird. Bill the college football Playoff. I don't 198 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: want to say his diminished championship weekend, But like Georgia, 199 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 2: Texas isn't for a spot in the playoffs. They're both 200 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 2: making it. So, you know, the SEC championship would be great, 201 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 2: Tech Texas wins awesome, But isn't the goal of college 202 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 2: football playoff? And if that's the case, Bill, are you 203 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: emptying the playbook here to win it all costs? I mean, 204 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 2: you don't have a game coming up soon as usual. 205 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: The reason why I like doing your show and actually 206 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 3: watching you is, you know, there's so many people out 207 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 3: there in this business, and I hope I don't insult anyone. 208 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: I'm not mentioning no one's names that talk sports betting 209 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 3: that don't know about it. So your spot on again 210 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 3: Texas Georgia perfect example. I talked to my right hand 211 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 3: and my assistant on Monday about this. I said, you know, 212 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 3: are these teams really not giving it? They're all they're 213 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 3: already in and there's a couple of games you can 214 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 3: mention that with. You know, I even talk about the 215 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 3: Oregon side. I talked about a couple of things. Now, Yeah, like, 216 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what's in their mindset. You know, you 217 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 3: have to find That's why my life is. I have 218 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 3: a guy that I have on the payroll that I 219 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 3: give him a piece of every bet. He does nothing 220 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: but scour the socials, and he's actually real big on 221 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 3: He's real big on the beat reporters for certain teams, 222 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 3: more college basketball right now than this time of the 223 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 3: year for football, but he does during the year, he 224 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 3: does follow college football beat reporters and the hometown schools. 225 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 3: But you have a great, a great example of what 226 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 3: you're talking about there is the Texas Georgia game, and 227 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: I did bet Texas. I wanted to see what I 228 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 3: laid on the money line. I laid Texas abt minus 229 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 3: a dollar twenty on the money line. I found a 230 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: really good money line when it came out, so I 231 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 3: did bet Texas in that situation. I do have a 232 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 3: slight edge the lines too, but solid two and a 233 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 3: half here in town. I still like Texas in that 234 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 3: game at the current money line, but uh, it's nothing crazy. 235 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 3: I'll bet more on a player prop maybe in the 236 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: same game, then I'll bet on a side there. But 237 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: I do like Texas money line in that game. 238 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: It's I brought that up because it's like, you know, 239 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: if you're a you know, a Georgia student or a 240 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: fan recently grad like normally, hey, we're going to the 241 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: SEC championship game. We'll make it a weekend out of it. 242 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: But now it's like, okay, we could have two or 243 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: three college football playoff games. I want to be at those, 244 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 2: you know, I want to go to the Natty at 245 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: that point. Yeah, I mean, yeah, sure. Obviously there's a 246 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: big donors who can go to all the games. But 247 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: I'm just curious. Georgia should have a home field advantage 248 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 2: at the Georgia Dome, but Texas is out for revenge, 249 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: obviously losing the last meeting. I don't know, it's an 250 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 2: interesting game. I will say that Clemson, sorry, yeah, Clemson 251 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: SMU is big. It feels kind of like SMU might 252 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: still make it in even if they lose. But this 253 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 2: this is certainly an elimination game, like a true You know, 254 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 2: it's funny. 255 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 3: I know a bunch of people I'm friends with a 256 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 3: lot of guys from the South. You know. Being a 257 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: knock around guy from back home in New York and 258 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 3: New Jersey, you wouldn't think some of my best friends 259 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 3: are from the South. I love these guys. They are 260 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: die hard Clemson fans. They're all going to Charlotte for 261 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 3: that game. Oh yeah, and yeah, they can't wait to go. 262 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 3: They could have found the three maybe for a hair there. 263 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 3: Now it's down to two solid two and a half 264 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 3: in that game. Let's see that I have anything on 265 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: that game, and I'll know I don't small small play, 266 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 3: believe it or not against the money, because the money 267 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 3: actually came in. No, actually did SMU small play on SMU. 268 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 3: The money came in on SMU on. 269 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 2: Home, I would mostly agree. I'm rooting SMU, my buddy. Graduate. 270 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 2: All right, let's get to NFL Thursday Night football. Amazing game, 271 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: Lions hosting the Packers. Everybody knows the storyline now, Lions 272 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 2: went into Green Bay and the rainstorm whooped them. However, 273 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: the Lions are walking wounded since then. I saw three 274 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: defensive linemen not practicing this week. Doesn't look like they're 275 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: gonna go. Their front seven is so beat up on 276 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: the defensive end that Jamal Adams was signed. I mean, 277 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: like that guy couldn't guarden me in coverage. Now maybe 278 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: he's gonna be called upon to play linebacker. It's just 279 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: very wacky for Detroit. So I did take green Bay 280 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 2: here getting the points. I just don't know if the 281 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: Packers are great. 282 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 3: Bill, Yeah, you know, uh, Detroit up front, the linemen 283 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 3: definitely are injured. Like you said, there's a couple guys 284 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 3: that are getting back on defense that should be okay, 285 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: but they're not the lineman. So Davis, the second d right, 286 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 3: secondary guys, exactly correct. I'm in this survivor pool here 287 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: in Las Vegas, which is fourteen million dollars. 288 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: So the circle one, the circle one, you're still alive. 289 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: No, I bought a team, So I bought. I bought 290 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 3: twenty percent of a team last week for forty grand 291 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 3: so I know. Wow, Well, I thought it was worth it. 292 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 3: You know. The entries were worked like two hundred and 293 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 3: sixty thousand dollars each. These guys came to me a couple. 294 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: By the way, four different teams came to me. But 295 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 3: the team I bought had the clearest path, and they 296 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 3: were looking to sell between ten and twenty five percent. 297 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 3: We settled on twenty percent for forty thousand. I have 298 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: a partner. We went twenty thousand, h forty grand for 299 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 3: Temper for twenty per we had Detroit over Chicago. Oh boy, 300 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 3: I can't. That's the reason why I really wanted the team. 301 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 3: Only seventeen people out of the fifty four at Detroit. 302 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 3: I probably should have at least went to overtime and 303 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 3: lost there. So that's its own week. Now we go 304 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 3: to last week because we only had four games to 305 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: choose from the three Thanksgiving. In the Kansas City game, 306 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 3: by the way, twenty nine people had Kansas City, we 307 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 3: would have knocked out half the pool, more than half 308 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 3: the pool if the Raiders just didn't fudge that at 309 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 3: the end. In that Raiders my ticket would have went 310 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 3: from two hundred and sixty zousand to six hundred and 311 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 3: fifty thousand worth the ticket as a whole. But so 312 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: we go to Sunday and at it's brand new week 313 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 3: and I picked. Are my guys that I bought a 314 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 3: piece of picked Tampa Bay? Oh talk about another luck? Wow, 315 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 3: Oh my god, Oh my god. They should have lost 316 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 3: that game. I should be out of it. So fifty 317 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 3: two of us, only two people got eliminated that took Cincinnati. 318 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: Let me ask you real quick, Bill, So by buying 319 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: twenty percent, So I'm a minority owner and a soccer team, 320 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 2: and you know I have a much less than twenty percent. 321 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 2: But I don't totally have a say in personnel moves. 322 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: I can suggest stuff, but come on, I'm a minority 323 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: owner at twenty percent. Can you suggicate? I mean, how 324 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: much say do you have? And who they picked this week? 325 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 3: Listen? They asked me right away, and I said, listen, guys, 326 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: this is six guys. They're all, uh this Colorado alumni. 327 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 3: They're good guys. There were friends, they bought some men, 328 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 3: and we all were on a skype called Zoom called 329 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 3: together and I said, listen, guys, don't ask me. I 330 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 3: already lost twenty five thousand this thing which I did, 331 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: I lost twenty five I said, don't go. Every sharp 332 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: guy that I know is out of this thing. Don't go. 333 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 3: Do whatever you've been doing the whole time. And sure 334 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,239 Speaker 3: enough they said, well, we're going to go with Minnesota 335 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 3: or Caroline both games, Minnesota or Tampa Bay. Both teams 336 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 3: just barely. 337 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 2: Got by, barely got it done. Yeah. 338 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, So this week again they asked me, and I 339 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 3: get I told them the same thing. Guys, do whatever 340 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 3: you want to do, don't ask me. 341 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 2: Let me guess they're going Eagles if they still have 342 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 2: Philly left. 343 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 3: I'm going to read there. I'm going to want to 344 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 3: read what they actually said. No. One team was I 345 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 3: thought they I thought they were gonna go with someone. 346 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 3: They're gonna go with either Minnesota or Pittsburgh Minnesota. 347 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: Or Pittsburgh Minnesota against Kirk Cousins or Pittsburgh against the Browns. 348 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: Interesting divisional matchup. And then you're buying a real, real 349 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 2: low one. I mean, your Falcons are at their lowest point. 350 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 2: This is I mean they Minnesota should kill them. 351 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 3: But they should. But you never know this, you never know. 352 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 2: It's the NFL. So what do you have on on 353 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 2: on Packers, Lions, any lean there or no? 354 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny. Right before we came on air, another 355 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,479 Speaker 3: syndicate group hit. And when I say syndicate, I mean 356 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 3: sports betting syndicate. Easy mafia historians see that and say, syndicate. 357 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 3: You know green Bay. They bet green Bay plus three 358 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 3: and a half is only one three and a half 359 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 3: minus a dollar ten still available out here in Vegas. Again, 360 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 3: having all these sports books where most of them are 361 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: plus three and a half dog fifteen or twenty. I 362 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 3: already had green Bay, so I already had green Bay 363 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 3: plus the three and a half. Unfortunately, I just went 364 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: to go I went to go back when the line 365 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 3: opened up, did not because I wanted to check on 366 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 3: some status of some of the Detroit defenders and I 367 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 3: didn't grab the four, so I have the three and 368 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 3: a half. I'm with you, we're on the same side. Well, 369 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens here. I just don't think that 370 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 3: I think Green Bay is good. I don't think they're 371 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 3: a top five team. Like people say, oh, they might 372 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 3: go to the super Bowl. I don't know if they'll 373 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 3: go to the super Bowl. Branton, I like love. I 374 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 3: think he's great. He makes a million bucks a week 375 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 3: hanging out like anyone makes a million a week. You know. 376 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 3: I do like them. I root for him. I actually 377 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 3: made a season. I was in Florida and the hard 378 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 3: Rock in Florida had season wins up early. I bet 379 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 3: under green Bay ten and a half wins when I 380 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 3: was in Florida. I was wrong. This team's gonna win 381 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 3: more than ten games. So I was definitely wrong there 382 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 3: when it happened. Sometimes I had some great futures on 383 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 3: other ones in Florida, but that one I'm probably gonna lose. 384 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 3: And I'm rooting for green Bay this weekend. 385 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. I side, but it's weird. I 386 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 2: look at so and the first bet I made, and 387 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 2: you know you can laugh and scoff, and I'm sure 388 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 2: people will, it was Eagles over Carolina. And I know 389 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: you're buying Eagles at the top of the market and 390 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 2: Carolina is actually looking good. But this matchup just so 391 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:17,239 Speaker 2: heavily favors Philly Bryce Young. I think a little bit 392 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: of a rude awakening this Eagles defense man Vic Fangio. 393 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 2: Holy cal, they've turned it around. 394 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's funny because I'm friends with a 395 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 3: couple of guys out here that are very sharp. One 396 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 3: is Las Vegas Chris and one is physic Steve Fick, 397 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 3: both friends of mine, both very sharp. Both on Philadelphia 398 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 3: missed the double digits. Wow. Wow. It takes a lot 399 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 3: for a pro. And I don't really know a lot 400 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 3: of pros, to be honest with you, that the NFL, 401 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 3: but it takes a lot a lot for a pro 402 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 3: to lay double digits. That's how That's how their power ratings, 403 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: their power rankings have these two teams. You just gotta 404 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 3: hope Philadelphia just came off a big, big win, their 405 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 3: biggest win of the year beating Baltimore. You got to 406 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 3: hope that they don't kind of lay back a little 407 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: bit here against a Carolina team. And like you said, 408 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 3: Carolina has been playing much better. They've been in games 409 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 3: and stuff. So I personally can never lay double digits 410 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 3: in the NFL, even though these guys do. They're professionals. 411 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 3: You like it, all three of you guys. I'm looking 412 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 3: for you guys. Twelve and a half. There is even 413 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 3: a twelve out here now, I see. So there's some 414 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: twelve and a half and twelves the market. If you know, 415 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: if this went down to maybe ten or something, you 416 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 3: can think about doing something. But you know, we have 417 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 3: these bets certain sports books. If the line's twelve and 418 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 3: a half, they have ten point teasers where you can 419 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 3: bring them down through these key numbers of ten, seven 420 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 3: and three minus two and a half. I'd be more 421 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 3: willing to go at that type of game, the minus 422 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 3: to two and a half. If I can find two 423 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 3: other teams that I'd be willing to put in a 424 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 3: ten point teaser. 425 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting you brought that up. I just went 426 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,719 Speaker 2: and looked at the schedules. So after Carolina, Philly hosts 427 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh in a big interstate game, I know it's not 428 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: a rival or anything, but that that's a big one. 429 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 2: If you remember a couple of years ago, it was 430 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 2: a big game, and I think Philly put a hurting 431 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 2: on him. But Philly also has hosted two bottom feeders. 432 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: Cleveland they didn't cover and Jacksonville they did not cover. Big, 433 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 2: big mistakes on special teams against Cleveland let them back 434 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: in the game. I think it was a block field 435 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 2: goal when they were rolling. And then Jacksonville, same deal. 436 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 2: They're rolling and then they screw it up. So there's 437 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 2: a world where they just say, hey, we're not going 438 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: to show anything, not putting anything on film. We're just 439 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: going to run the ball. I don't know, fifty times 440 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 2: tough to get margin when you're just running so much. Carolina, though, 441 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 2: they made Bucky Irving look like Eric Dickerson. I don't 442 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 2: know if you saw that. 443 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 3: No, yes, of course that that game you know, meant 444 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 3: you know, a lot of money to me in this pool. 445 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 3: So I actually did follow that game. He doesn't on 446 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 3: sweat games too much. That overtime this weekend, uh, you know. 447 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 3: And plus, by the way, when they get the ball 448 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: back for five minutes, if it's a tie, you get 449 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 3: knocked out of the pool. Also, so it was it 450 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 3: was a sick, sick pool that I'm in the circus 451 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 3: survivor down the fifty two guys. But you are right, 452 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 3: Carolina has been looking much better. And I fucky Irvan. 453 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 3: Who's he like? You know you you almost want to say, guys, Yeah, 454 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: he is amazing. And you're right about those two Philly 455 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 3: games too. I forgot how handily handedly they had. Boy, 456 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 3: they had those teams like they were covering Philadelphia and 457 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 3: those games. 458 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 2: Look, Jackson Wouldville kill me. I think I think I 459 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 2: got a four and one in the contest that week 460 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 2: and that was my lone miss. And they were rolling 461 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 2: in that game. I'm talking they were I think it 462 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 2: was like twenty to three. It was frustrating. Let me 463 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 2: get to another one. How do you what do you 464 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 2: make this of the Seattle is now three two and 465 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 2: a half or three. They're getting points at Arizona. Seattle 466 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 2: just handled him pretty well a couple of weeks ago. 467 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 2: But now it's in Arizona. You're talking. 468 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 3: You know, I normally wouldn't do this, but I'm gonna 469 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 3: do this here. I'm going to pull up something and 470 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 3: I am against the one. Here's one of my accounts 471 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 3: in town if you guys can see it. So that 472 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 3: is probably my biggest bet there as you could see. 473 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 3: Five thousand Seahawks plus three. Five thousand Seahawks plus three. 474 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 3: That's a big bet for me in the NFL. I 475 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 3: don't bet that much in the Nayeah. 476 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: That's significant. 477 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's all. And I'm not doing it to brag. 478 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 3: I'm doing it to tell you something. I'm doing it. 479 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 3: I could no brag. I mean, overall, every other bet 480 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 3: in the accounts, two grand, one grand, three grand. I 481 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 3: like Seattle plus three now plus plus three minus one ten. 482 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 3: They've been rolling along. I've been giving that out, given 483 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 3: Seattle out on shows the last three weeks, like they 484 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 3: asked for one solid pick, and I've been pretty lucky. 485 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 3: Jets were winning fourteen last week, came back, Seattle came 486 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 3: back and won that one again. I'm on Seattle. And 487 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 3: one of my friends I mentioned before, he's on Arizona, 488 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 3: but he's on Arizona money line. So if they win 489 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 3: by you know one or two, we both win. So yeah, 490 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 3: he's on Arizona moneyline, a good moneyline minus a dollar 491 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 3: thirty that's not available. I am on plus three minus 492 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 3: a dollar ten, which is not available dollar twenty. I'm 493 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 3: looking minus a dollar eighteen, so there is some place. 494 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 3: But I just think that Seattle is literally been playing 495 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 3: for their playoff life. Granted that result has been in 496 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 3: a lot of games. I remember the first week of 497 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 3: the season versus Buffalo. I mean, they've been in a 498 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 3: lot of games. They're feisty, they're feisty, They're a feisty team. 499 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 2: But as a dog, it seems like his this season, 500 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 2: they're better in the underdog role, right would you agree? 501 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, You're absolutely right. They were covering those 502 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 3: games as the dog. Now their favorite at home. The 503 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 3: market has caught up with them a little bit. And 504 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: conversely the other side, Seattle was doing terrible covering early 505 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 3: in the season and playing early in the season. So 506 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 3: I think it's maybe not that it's two teams going 507 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 3: in two different directions, but I just think Seattle's playing 508 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 3: for their playoff life here. I think the three was 509 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 3: a great number. I got in a three, and I 510 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 3: think that they have a shot to win the game 511 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 3: out right. 512 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: Now because there's six teams on a buy this week, 513 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 2: which is insane. In records week in December, the games 514 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 2: are not amazing. But like on paper at the beginning 515 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 2: of the season, Buffalo Rams and Bears Niners, those are 516 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 2: supposed to be great games, that's right, And now I'm 517 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: seeing Stafford kind of dinged up. I guess it's gonna 518 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: be okay, but not great against Buffalo. It seems to 519 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 2: be peaking anything there for you. 520 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 3: You know, the game opened up at four and it's 521 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 3: still like four to four and a half, so yeah, 522 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 3: not a lot of movement either way here same thing 523 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 3: on the total opened up forty nine. It's kind of 524 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 3: forty nine and a half as it really moves crazy. 525 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 3: But I will tell you that was a big game 526 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: for them. The other day they did thirty five to 527 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 3: ten I think was the final one, and that's that 528 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 3: beautiful snow coming down. I always wanted to go to 529 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 3: one of those type of Ice Bowl games in the 530 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 3: snow or something. So Buffalo coming off a big victory 531 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 3: the other night, and of course, listen, we know San 532 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 3: fran is all banged up, so I'm not going to 533 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 3: give them such great credit for that game as others 534 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 3: might win in by that score. Now they're going into 535 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 3: a Rams team that's really playing for their life. Also, 536 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 3: if anything Eileen Rams here plus the four and a half, 537 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 3: but I didn't bet it. So if you guys are 538 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 3: betting Buffalo, there's still a four here in town. I'm 539 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 3: looking on the screen. I'm really not no no real 540 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 3: side in that game. For me. I just hate teams 541 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 3: that are that are coming off that they are flying 542 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 3: from Buffalo out to LA and they just had that 543 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 3: big game. They maybe I always try to think what's 544 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 3: in the mindset because the human condition means so much 545 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 3: in life in different spots, what we're made up of, 546 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 3: and we're all fountains of energy and internal things, and 547 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 3: so I kind of think of what their mindset is. 548 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: They know they're rolling in the playoffs. There one of 549 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: the best teams in football. Power rankings are amazing this year. 550 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: There's so much there's it really is there. The league 551 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 3: has so many teams that at the beginning of the 552 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 3: year you didn't know. Now the Cream's kind of come 553 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 3: up to the top, but you just don't know. Is 554 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 3: Buffalo the best team? Is Kansas City the best team? 555 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 3: I thought Detroy was the best team until I've seen 556 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 3: him falling apart the other day. So, uh, you know, 557 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 3: there's there's literally four teams, maybe you could consider the 558 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 3: best teams in football. Buffalo is mentioned above around with them, 559 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 3: but I remember, you know, there's been some couple of 560 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 3: games that, like I said, Buffalo struggled this year too so, 561 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 3: but they going into beaton Kansas City was a big 562 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 3: game for me. I just you know, it's fun, but 563 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 3: it's the NFL. Any given Sunday, anything can and will happen. 564 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 3: Don't be surprised if the Rams don't win out right, 565 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 3: or don't be surprised if Buffalo doesn't blow them away. 566 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 2: All right, we could wrap up with Cleveland at Pittsburgh. 567 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 2: The Steelers just continue to befuddle me every week. I 568 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 2: don't get it. I keep betting against them, they keep 569 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 2: killing me. Russell Wilson's a different guy now. This this 570 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: is a big revenge spot for the Steelers. They're laying 571 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: a big number in a divisional matchup Brown short week 572 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 2: after the Denver thriller, if you will, and then now 573 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 2: they got to go to play a fired up Pittsburgh team. 574 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 2: I don't know that I can. I can back the 575 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 2: Steelers should probably stay away, but anything. 576 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 3: From you, that's it amazing You come to this game. 577 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 3: So I'm going to show you another bet, and I'm 578 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 3: gonna show you how how I actually make bad bets sometimes. 579 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 3: So before this week, I went on to every single 580 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 3: show coast to coast that they gota did thirteen shows 581 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 3: last week, and I told people how bad Pittsburgh was. 582 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 3: They were the they were the worst, the worst best 583 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 3: record team in football that I said, they're They're for 584 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 3: gayzy and everything the look. And I even bet made 585 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 3: a bet, a bad bet. I bet a three thousand 586 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 3: dollars bet, laid two to one almost on on the 587 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 3: Baltimore to win the division minus a dollar eighty five. 588 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 2: I could got over. 589 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 3: It's not over, but I hear, I said, look at 590 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 3: this is a great bet to make. It was minus 591 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 3: two to one. Everywhere I told, I said it was 592 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 3: a good bet for people to make. And here Pittsburgh 593 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 3: but then again shits it out of these defense. Oh 594 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 3: my god, what are they doing? Pittsburgh has the toughest schedule. Now, 595 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 3: now let's see. Now, let's see what they do. I'll 596 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 3: tell you what I bet Cleveland. They're on one of 597 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,719 Speaker 3: my smaller bets. In that first account, I showed you 598 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 3: I bet Cleveland here at tol point plus seven points 599 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 3: I just think that this is a team that just 600 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 3: beat them. Now, granted, it was crazy, all sorts of 601 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 3: crazy weather in Cleveland, and there was thirteen points through 602 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 3: three quarters, and they scored like twenty seven in the 603 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 3: fourth quarter in a blizzard in Cleveland a few weeks 604 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 3: ago on primetime football Thursday night. It was crazy. Cleveland won. 605 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 3: So it's gonna be a little bit of a revenge 606 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 3: factor here. But Cleveland's been in the games. By the way, 607 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 3: they probably should have won Monday night there. I don't know, 608 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 3: you know, they were they were they really, they were 609 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 3: right in that game, and they've been in some games 610 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 3: now playing a little better. Look, I think the quarterback 611 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 3: if like four hundred and eighty yards that Javis had 612 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 3: ye ninety seven like in a losing effort. So but again, 613 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 3: you know, he made a lot of key mistakes, I understand, 614 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 3: but he is a powerhouse of all of a sudden 615 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 3: through his drawing arm. So give credit to a couple 616 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 3: of those receivers too. So I am with you. I 617 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 3: am on Cleveland in this game. Plus the seven points. 618 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, there's plus seven minus twenty 619 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 3: at five different shops. I still wouldn't I still wouldn't 620 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 3: be hesitant to bet that I would take that right now. 621 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 3: I just think I think Pittsburgh, even though they may 622 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 3: beat me on that bet, they may win the division. 623 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 3: I know, Baltimore, it's not over your right, but I'm 624 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 3: with you here. I'm gonna go with the points here 625 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 3: with Cleveland. 626 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 2: Interesting all right, crack man, uh, thanks for joining the 627 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 2: pod this week.

Best bet for Packers Lions. I took the 651 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: three and a half points. I do have some questions 652 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: about the Packers defense. And I, you know, I wrote 653 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: this game up for Fox sports dot Com and I 654 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 2: and I argued this, like, do we know if the 655 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 2: Packers are that good? So they got hot at the 656 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: end of last season, look great, you know, make that 657 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: deep run. Well, they beat the Cowboys in the playoffs 658 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 2: and then they pushed the Niners, led them, and then 659 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 2: Brock Party brings back. So not a deep run, but 660 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 2: they want a playoff game in nearly one a second. Okay, 661 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 2: So I looked at this recent Packers stretch because they 662 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 2: started out kind of wonky that they lost to the Eagles, 663 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: kind of you could argue they outplayed them, and then 664 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 2: they had the Jordan Love injury. At the end of 665 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 2: the Eagles game, the Malik Willis saved their bacon twice. Anyways, 666 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: last eight games Packers have won seven of eight, so 667 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: everybody's like, oh, the Packers are hot, and I start 668 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 2: looking into it. I'm like, Okay, So they beat the 669 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: Dolphins in cold weather. We know the Dolphins can't play 670 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 2: in cold weather. The forty nine Ers were missing a 671 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: billion starters, including Brock Perdy, so that's another win. They 672 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 2: survived the Bears on that blocked field goal at the Horn. Okay, 673 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 2: surviving the Bears, who have lost six in a row 674 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 2: at the Buzzer. On the road, they faced Jacksonville. I 675 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 2: was on Chicago in that game, and they let Jacksonville 676 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: hang around, hang around, hang around. I'm sorry, not on 677 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: the Bears, on the Packers. It was on the road. 678 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: Jordan Love briefly had to leave for Malik Willis, and 679 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 2: it just it was unimpressive. Jacksonville is a tire fire, 680 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 2: one of the worst teams in the league. They beat 681 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 2: the Texans on a last second field goal. Texans, are 682 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 2: they good? I don't know. I don't think so. So 683 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 2: if you want the last great performance when the Packers 684 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 2: soup the nuts looked awesome, it was against air Zona 685 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 2: in the middle of October when they ran away and 686 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: hid but Arizona wasn't good at that point. They had 687 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 2: just beat the Niners a week before. Everybody knew a 688 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,239 Speaker 2: letdown was coming, so everybody was on the Packers. So 689 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: I don't totally know if the Packers are great. And 690 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 2: I'll just say this, the world is gonna be on 691 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 2: Green Bay to night, Okay, So I'm sure we'll see 692 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 2: the tweets from you know, these guys who covered Vegas 693 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 2: and gambling the. 694 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: Books all the house. 695 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 2: They really need Detroit. What a position to be in Detroit. 696 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: Imagine needing one of the a team that has the 697 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 2: best against the spread record in like the last three 698 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: years in the NFL by a mile, you know, imagine 699 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: that the house needs. I think everybody's gonna be on 700 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,959 Speaker 2: the Packers. Did you get four or did you get 701 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: three and a half? I got three and a half. 702 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: Four was there, I believe, very very early in the week. 703 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 2: But they released the Packers and Lions injuries and folks, 704 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 2: oh my goodness, it ain't good. According to I think 705 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 2: it was Schefter, they're going to be down a ton 706 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 2: of guys, including it looks like no Taylor Decker, the 707 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 2: awesome offensive lineman, he has been ruled out. They are 708 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 2: down three defensive linemen, including DJ Reader who's excellent, Josh 709 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:19,760 Speaker 2: Paschal and on ro under the rouserki I butchered that badly. 710 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 2: But bottom line, they're missing three defensive linemen and Taylor 711 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: Decker a really really good right tackle. That's the trenches 712 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 2: where it matters most. Okay, that's huge. Now the Packers themselves, 713 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: they're down jyr Alexander he's been ruled out. That guy 714 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 2: can never stay healthy. And they're down Romeo Dobbs who's 715 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: still out with the concussion. Other than that, they're pretty healthy. 716 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,879 Speaker 2: I did look at some of these prop numbers, and 717 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 2: you know, it seems like it's gonna be a run 718 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 2: game for the Packers. That being said, the Josh Jacobs 719 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 2: props are lined way higher than they were last week, 720 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 2: and we knew he was gonna run all over Miami. 721 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: That being said, is there a play on the total here? 722 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 2: You think that there's gonna be low scoring? I don't know, 723 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 2: because I don't know that the Packers are gonna be 724 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 2: able to stop Jared Goff and his own defense. I'm 725 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 2: ros Saint Brown's going to destroy the zone as he 726 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 2: does all the time, and you know, Ben Johnson, they 727 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 2: went into Green Bay earlier this year in a rain storm, 728 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 2: and I think the world was on the Packers. I 729 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 2: might have even been I don't remember, and the Lions 730 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 2: just kicked their ass, you know. I mean, I know 731 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 2: it was in the rain, but the Lions just walked 732 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 2: them up and down the field. And I think it 733 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 2: was twenty four to three at one point or maybe, yeah, 734 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 2: something like that, twenty one three twenty four three. Like 735 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 2: it wasn't particularly close. And I'm the idiot who tried 736 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: to outsmart the room with the Indianapolis Colts spot at 737 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 2: home against the Lions. That was fun for about a half. 738 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: And then Detroit didn't give up any points in the 739 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 2: second half. But all these people who'd like the Lions defense, oh, jay, 740 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,240 Speaker 2: just a few weeks. They had a three week stretch 741 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 2: giving up no points in the second half. And then 742 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 2: my counra will be like, oh, yeah, so what happened 743 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 2: against the Bears on Thanksgiving? And that's when you wonder, oh, 744 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 2: did the injuries catch up with them? And Caleb Williams 745 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 2: in Chuck and Duck Mode found some holes and they 746 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 2: were able to exploit some stuff. Well, Matt lafleur Is 747 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 2: are a really good coach. He's better than Abraflus and that 748 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 2: entire staff. Do the Packers have some stuff ready for 749 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 2: this Bears, for this Lion's defense that is kind of reeling. They're, 750 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: you know, leaking oil to an extent. I'm on Pro 751 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 2: Football Focus and I'm looking at who these backups are. Guys. 752 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 2: This is not good. This is not good at all. 753 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 2: This kid David Long, he was on the Dolphins. They 754 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: cut him because he was terrible. He is graded out 755 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,280 Speaker 2: of the eighty three linebackers in the league. He's graded 756 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 2: out his eighty third. He can't guard anybody. If you 757 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 2: have what is his name, Tucker Croft, Taylor Craft, whatever 758 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 2: is the tight ends for the Packers. I think you 759 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 2: got to look at playing him. Campbell is not great 760 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,760 Speaker 2: in coverage. He's a very good running, run stopping linebacker. 761 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 2: Jack Campbell, the young kid from Iowa. He's very good. 762 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 2: The other linebacker is this guy, Ezekiel Turner, who has 763 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: basically only played the last three weeks. He's been around 764 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,919 Speaker 2: for several years and he's been awful in the league. 765 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 2: Every year he greades out as a poor, poor linebacker. 766 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 2: So they can be had. I do believe they'll probably 767 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 2: play the too deep shell with Branch to Joseph or 768 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: some version of it, because they don't want to give 769 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 2: up the big play. You know, Jayden Reid streaking. They'll concede. 770 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 2: All the runs go ahead, beat us with Josh Jacobs 771 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: hammering out four or five, six, seven yards of carry. Fine, 772 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 2: that's fine. We don't want to give up the big play. 773 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 2: And you know Carlton Davis is back at corner. He's good. 774 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: The kid Arnold from Alabama. Listen, he's a rookie. He struggled. 775 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 2: He ain't playing like the guys in Philly, that's for sure. 776 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: But when you don't have a huge pass rush, it 777 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 2: puts more pressure on your cornerbacks. And on the back end. 778 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: Joseph and Branch are are there making up for all 779 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 2: the mistakes. They are having outstanding seasons one or two. 780 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 2: They'll both possibly be all pro. But I do just 781 00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: wonder if Lafleur says, you remember the Malik Williams Malik 782 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 2: wills Willis game plan where we just ran the ball 783 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 2: at nauseum. I think it was like forty times. If 784 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 2: you want to keep the Lions high powered offense off 785 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 2: the field, you just run the ball and I'm sure 786 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 2: you'll mix in some some Jaden Reid stuff and maybe 787 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: hit try to hit a Christian Watson deep to keep 788 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 2: him on us back there. But to me, this is 789 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 2: gonna be a we control the game, We control the trenches, 790 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 2: and you know, obviously Detroit, I would guess if they 791 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 2: win the toss, they're gonna want the ball first and 792 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 2: they're gonna want to try to score and put the 793 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 2: green Bay behind the eight ball, so they can't play 794 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: this slow at desk slow down. In the NBA, they 795 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 2: call it pace in space. I would call this a 796 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 2: snales pace for green Bay. That would be my guess 797 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: is how they play it. So I'm on the Packers 798 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 2: plus three and a half. I'm very intrigued to see 799 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 2: if this Detroit defense could get any stops, because, Folks, 800 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 2: if they get exposed tonight, I think you can start 801 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 2: to officially be like, uh oh, you know. J Max 802 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 2: said the Lions are the best team in the NFC 803 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 2: on Monday, and I out at him because I'm still 804 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 2: riding Detroit, but damn, he might have been right. And 805 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 2: then if that's not enough for you, Detroit has the 806 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills the following week, so This is a big one. 807 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 2: You don't want to lose two in a row then 808 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, home field's gone. So it is 809 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 2: a big one in Detroit, huge game for the Lions, 810 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,720 Speaker 2: big one for the Packers as well. I will probably 811 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 2: sprinkle some of the money line for the Packers as well. 812 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: I will go twenty four fourteen Green Bay. Talk to 813 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 2: you tomorrow.
