Speaker 3: Welcome in episode one seventy seven of Watch Right with
Speaker 3: Nick Wright and this episode of What's Right when Nick
Speaker 3: Wright is brought to you by the McDonald's app. I
Speaker 3: love the McDonald's app. I can order my favorites anytime
Speaker 3: I want and have them delivered to me whenever and where.
Speaker 3: In fact, ordering on the app is so easy, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna place an order right now. Got the app open
Speaker 3: right there. And if I know this the local delivery
Speaker 3: in the McDonald's app as well as I think I do,
Speaker 3: I think I'll have this to me before the end
Speaker 3: of the show. So hold on. Two Breakfast burritos, Hash
Speaker 3: Brown's orange juice and done Apple pay Done. See it.
Speaker 3: It's that literally, that easy. Now I'm focused on the show.
Speaker 3: McDonald's brings me the food right to my door, which again,
Speaker 3: we're gonna be a little true. We're gonna we're taking
Speaker 3: a bit of a risk here. We've got let's let's
Speaker 3: make let's see when this gets delivered. If we have
Speaker 3: to extend the show, I don't think we will. My
Speaker 3: guess is somewhat at some point during our gambling segment,
Speaker 3: my breakfast burritos come in, and Demons, who I'm gonna
Speaker 3: introduce right now. I hope you're ready with some good
Speaker 3: gambling takes, because when the food comes, I'm taking a
Speaker 3: break and I'm eating. Demonse is smiling because we have
Speaker 3: not yet discussed last week's gambling show. Yikes for both
Speaker 3: of us. Buddy, not great. We will get to how
Speaker 3: we're gambling picks in a moment. How are you doing
Speaker 3: this morning.
Speaker 2: Sun, Pretty good man? How about yourself? I'm doing great.
Speaker 3: You know, today is an emotional day for the family.
Speaker 3: We take Diora to college, get on a plane, as
Speaker 3: we will now have two of our three children living
Speaker 3: in California while we live in New York City. Doora
Speaker 3: and I had a heart to heart last night about
Speaker 3: not about how she's going to do in school, not
Speaker 3: about decision making, not about grades, about the fact that
Speaker 3: you and her have now left me with, objectively speaking,
Speaker 3: two of the craziest people who have ever lived in
Speaker 3: your baby sister and your mother, and I am all alone,
Speaker 3: and that I am going to need regular chats with
Speaker 3: each of you. We will discuss that potentially later in
Speaker 3: the show, but we must get to the news of
Speaker 3: the day. Here's what missed the cut.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: The NFL Player Association calls for grass fields, Travis Kelsey
Speaker 3: and Taylor Swift quietly hanging out right after I declare
Speaker 3: myself on team Oh, What's what's my girl's name? The
Speaker 3: one who's in the beef with Tayler Olivia Rodrigo. I
Speaker 3: said I was team Olivia Rodrigo. And now it looks
Speaker 3: like Kelsey and Taylor Swift might be dating and aliens
Speaker 3: found in Mexico.
Speaker 2: This is what.
Speaker 3: Matt Ford wanted us to talk about the entire show.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately it missed the cut. Demons, Let's get into Thursday
Speaker 3: Night football. Tonight's game what are we talking about?
Speaker 2: All Right?
Speaker 4: So the Vikings traveled to Philly tonight's play the Eagles.
Speaker 4: Both teams struggled last week, but Philly managed to pull
Speaker 4: out the dub. Was this just week one, rust or
Speaker 4: do you expect these teams issues to continue?
Speaker 3: Okay? So for the Vikings, I think their offense will
Speaker 3: look better than it looked against Tampa.
Speaker 2: But I I picked.
Speaker 3: This team, missed the playoffs. I don't think it's a
Speaker 3: great team. Last year I tried to tell it, I
Speaker 3: listen to be fair, I was far from the only
Speaker 3: person saying they are winning all of these one score games.
Speaker 3: It is not sustainable. And then riddle me that out
Speaker 3: of no, you know, for Week one of this year
Speaker 3: they lose a one score game. With that said, I
Speaker 3: think they have a very interesting opportunity tonight. That Philly
Speaker 3: secondary last year played five good to very good quarterbacks
Speaker 3: all year, just five. They scored an average of thirty
Speaker 3: three points on that Philly defense. It was golf Trevor
Speaker 3: Rogers Dak Mahomes. This year, Philly, now they only allowed
Speaker 3: twenty points. But Mac Jones. Mac Jones threw for three
Speaker 3: hundred plus and three scores. What is it going to
Speaker 3: look like Demonse when it's your Jefferson, justin Jefferson, pardon me,
Speaker 3: and rookie Jordan Addison running back there. I think the
Speaker 3: Vikings are gonna be able to score some points tonight,
Speaker 3: and so I it's not me saying that I think
Speaker 3: the Vikings are gonna win necessarily. But I'll tell you
Speaker 3: this much and we'll talk about Survivor Pools later. I
Speaker 3: stayed away from Philly and Survivor Pools this week because
Speaker 3: I think that Philly's secondary can get got and I
Speaker 3: thought Jalen looked a little shaky in Week one. Demontse
Speaker 3: go ahead, you looked like you were gonna say something.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I honestly just think that it's gonna be
Speaker 4: a good game. I think that given the circumstances, it's
Speaker 4: pretty pretty evenly matched.
Speaker 3: But that's if it's evenly matched, that's a bit of
Speaker 3: an indictment, if you will, on where Philly is right
Speaker 3: now and now, the person to watch on Philly is
Speaker 3: Jalen Carter, their rookie d tackle, who a lot of
Speaker 3: people thought was the single best player in last year's draft.
Speaker 3: He fell almost all the way out of the top
Speaker 3: ten because of some really tough off the field stuff
Speaker 3: when he was at Georgia and people were concerned about him.
Speaker 3: He was dominant, absolutely dominant in Week one, but they
Speaker 3: lost to Kobe Dean with an injury, They lost a corner,
Speaker 3: the secondary was already shaky. So I think that Cousin,
Speaker 3: if Cousins has time tonight, I think the Vikings can
Speaker 3: score a lot of points. And I think that there's
Speaker 3: a long article on ESPN right now about the number
Speaker 3: of hits Jalen Hurts has been taking and how often
Speaker 3: he's running. Remember at the end of the Patriots game,
Speaker 3: he fumbled, which kind of opened the door for the
Speaker 3: Patriots to potentially win. They just couldn't close the deal.
Speaker 3: Philly is an interesting one to watch. The Super Bowl
Speaker 3: hangover can be real. They got they escaped with an
Speaker 3: important win in you know, a tough environment on Sunday.
Speaker 3: But I'm very interested in watching them tonight.
Speaker 4: Go ahead, So I mean, I think you've kind of
Speaker 4: already answered the question, So who do you think?
Speaker 2: Who do you see? It's hurting it? And also actually
Speaker 2: go ahead, go ahead.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll just ask.
Speaker 2: You Andrew Orsi's question.
Speaker 4: He says, Kirk Cousins in primetime will do more damage
Speaker 4: than the Eagles secondary.
Speaker 3: Yes, well that didn't play. Listen, that didn't play. But
Speaker 3: I do think the Vikings are semi desperate in Week two.
Speaker 3: If you think about the Vikings, their playoff game ended
Speaker 3: tragically in a one possession loss. They blow a game
Speaker 3: to Baker Mayfield in the Bucks. And now last year
Speaker 3: wasn't Vikings Eagles. I don't know if it was a
Speaker 3: Thursday night or a Monday night game last year, and
Speaker 3: that Kirk was the only I guess you could say
Speaker 3: above average quarterback the Eagles played last year and totally
Speaker 3: shut him down. I remember that game was like twenty
Speaker 3: three to seven. So the Vikings just have a lot
Speaker 3: on the line here and I think the Eagles will win.
Speaker 3: I would not lay the six, and now that Eagles
Speaker 3: offense against a very suspect Vikings defense should be able
Speaker 3: to do some damage. With the Vikings brought in Brian
Speaker 3: Flores this offseason, the defense was okay in Week one.
Speaker 3: Baker evidently figured out their the signals in that game
Speaker 3: in the second half, which is one of the reasons
Speaker 3: they had so much success. I'm excited for the night's
Speaker 3: game and I think it's a high scoring one, all right. Next,
Speaker 3: let's go Chiefs Jacks.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 4: So there's no doubt that Patrick Mahomes is the best
Speaker 4: quarterback in football.
Speaker 5: There's a little bit of a doubt right now if
Speaker 5: you ask me, though, But.
Speaker 4: After a rocky Week one, he plays the second best
Speaker 4: quarterback in football. The prince that was promised Jamesviller lost
Speaker 4: by a touchdown of the playoffs, but that was on
Speaker 4: the road without Ridley. Is the Prince's first step? Is
Speaker 4: this the Prince's first step to becoming keing? Hey, dude,
Speaker 4: I'll tell you something.
Speaker 2: He's way better than Jared Goff. But go ahead, Hey.
Speaker 3: That's true. But before I even answered that, you said
Speaker 3: something interesting there. You were like, you seem to question
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes's place atop the quarterback hierarchy. Who do you
Speaker 3: think belongs there? And if you say tua, I'm coming
Speaker 3: through the screen.
Speaker 5: Who maybe the guy that beat him last Sunday?
Speaker 3: Jared Goff? Okay, yeah, man, those guys were better in
Speaker 3: Week one. It does not make them better quarterbacks.
Speaker 4: You know, I'm giving I'm I'm giving them giving him
Speaker 4: a lot of bad word but uh, but yeah, he
Speaker 4: obviously didn't have his receivers bulls well.
Speaker 3: I mean, well, listen, so I think that Jags playoff
Speaker 3: game was not going to be close at all. If
Speaker 3: you remember, the Chiefs were moving up and down the
Speaker 3: field at will. Mahomes got his ankle maimed and that
Speaker 3: obviously changed the complexion of the game. The Chiefs were
Speaker 3: still infirmed control throughout. I do think take that everyone
Speaker 3: thought was such a hot take that Trevor is an
Speaker 3: unquestioned top five quarterback in football is now conventional wisdom.
Speaker 3: I believe the Chiefs with Chris Jones back, I think
Speaker 3: they're gonna have Kelsey back, are gonna win this football game.
Speaker 3: I won't panic if they don't, but I would be
Speaker 3: very surprised given that they lost Week one. I mean,
Speaker 3: Mahomes has never been two games below five hundred in
Speaker 3: his career. He's only lost back to back games, I believe,
Speaker 3: three times in his career, and I think the Chiefs
Speaker 3: with the extra rest with the mini by are going
Speaker 3: to be sharp. With that said, you mentioned Ridley. Ridley
Speaker 3: looked awesome, absolutely awesome. Travis Ettien looked good. The rookie
Speaker 3: tank Bigsby, despite I think he was the one that
Speaker 3: had a fumble. He looked good as well. The Jags
Speaker 3: are legit. This is my projected AFC Championship game. But
Speaker 3: I don't think the Jags defense is going to slow
Speaker 3: down the Chiefs offense the way and the Lions defense,
Speaker 3: in my opinion, didn't really slow down the Chiefs offense.
Speaker 3: The Chiefs offense slowed down the Chiefs offense. They had
Speaker 3: guys running open. They just kept dropping passes on that
Speaker 3: last drive, even the fourth and twenty five they sky moore.
Speaker 2: Hand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and obviously Canarios turning in the first play of
Speaker 3: the drive. And the Lions are I don't think they're
Speaker 3: a great team. They're a good team. And so I
Speaker 3: think Trevor is awesome, absolutely awesome. You guys know that
Speaker 3: I like the Chiefs this week. Go ahead, what are
Speaker 3: your followings?
Speaker 5: You like Trevor and all that.
Speaker 4: But if the Chiefs end up losing this game, is
Speaker 4: it time to break the glass and hit that red
Speaker 4: panic button.
Speaker 3: No, because they would have lost to two good teams,
Speaker 3: and because here are their next half dozen games, Chicago,
Speaker 3: the Jets, the Vikings, Denver, the Chargers Denver before they
Speaker 3: play Miami. By the way, Chiefs Dolphins is about to
Speaker 3: be the greatest international game europe game ever. Chiefs Dolphins
Speaker 3: is going to be at nine to thirty in the
Speaker 3: morning Eastern in Germany in the first week in November,
Speaker 3: also known as something Demanse has a zero percent chance
Speaker 3: of watching because that will be on at six thirty
Speaker 3: in the morning on the West Coast. So even if
Speaker 3: the Chiefs were to lose, they're not even playing a
Speaker 3: losable game until week nine.
Speaker 4: It's not like they exactly go out there and destroy
Speaker 4: the Broncos every time they see them, I think, and
Speaker 4: they play them twice.
Speaker 2: And you said you mentioned the Jets.
Speaker 4: Hey, dude, yeah, it's not It's honestly not looking kosher
Speaker 4: right now.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right.
Speaker 3: Well I'm not worried about the Jets at all. And
Speaker 3: while you can mention the fact that the Chiefs don't
Speaker 3: blow out the Broncos, the last time Demanse, the Broncos
Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs, you were a junior in high school.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say that again, the last time the Broncos
Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs. The Broncos have won a Super Bowl
Speaker 3: more recently than they have beaten the Chiefs. The last
Speaker 3: time the Broncos beat the Chiefs Barack Obama was president.
Speaker 4: So the last time the Broncos had Sean Payton and
Speaker 4: Russell Wilson as their front runners.
Speaker 3: Well, last year they had Russell Wilson and they were
Speaker 3: down twenty seven to nothing in the first game against
Speaker 3: the Chiefs and second of all Sean Payton. That looked
Speaker 3: a whole hell of a lot like the NTT Hackett Broncos,
Speaker 3: bad fourth down calls, ten penalties, scored sixteen points and lose.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't see a big station there. One
Speaker 2: last question.
Speaker 5: Last last year, last year, you made a.
Speaker 4: Lot of money on the same game parlay within the
Speaker 4: Chiefs Shags games.
Speaker 5: Are you gonna do it again this year? Oh?
Speaker 3: I don't know. You know, those are the same game
Speaker 3: parlay stuff. It's kind of like if the mood strikes me.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'll do that this year. If
Speaker 3: I do, I'll tweet it out, But I'm not certain
Speaker 3: I haven't really dove into the same game parlay waters
Speaker 3: this year just yet?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: Next?
Speaker 4: All right, So Robert Sala apparently has made it clear
Speaker 4: that Zach Wilson is the Jets QB one. But you
Speaker 4: think that they're gonna move on after Wilson gets embarrassed
Speaker 4: by this Cowboys defense. You said on TV they should
Speaker 4: trade for Cooper Rush or Tokoby Versett. What's the point
Speaker 4: in trading for more assets for a mid quarterback if
Speaker 4: they can't win a Super Bowl?
Speaker 3: Okay, so the point is your season won't be dead
Speaker 3: on a right. The point is you have a young
Speaker 3: team that has never experienced any type of postseason, well
Speaker 3: any postseason whatsoever, hasn't played any super high leverage games,
Speaker 3: and trying to keep your team involved or keep your
Speaker 3: team into it late in the year because the defense
Speaker 3: does look great, because the running game does look excellent,
Speaker 3: because Garrett Wilson was phenomenal. And the fact of the
Speaker 3: matter is, it's not that they have a bad quarterback demonse,
Speaker 3: because anyone available right now is not going to be great.
Speaker 3: The other the name you didn't mention that I had
Speaker 3: said was the number one called Macus Jameis Winston. But
Speaker 3: it's not that they have a bad quarterback, demonse, they
Speaker 3: have the worst quarterback in the league. The worst Zach
Speaker 3: Wilson's first year in the league. He finished where do
Speaker 3: you think amongst all quarterbacks? He finished im passer rating.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you debinly, where do you think, Well, no
Speaker 3: worse than thirty second, because like forty guys qualified, as
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, because backups player or whatever.
Speaker 3: He finished amongst all qualifying quarterbacks his rookie year, ambassarating
Speaker 3: last amongst all qualifying quarterbacks his rookie year, and completion
Speaker 3: percentage last. All right, what about his second year? His
Speaker 3: second year, he finished last in both those categories. He's
Speaker 3: been He's had the double double last place finishes in
Speaker 3: both his year's starter go ahead.
Speaker 5: He's spent the summer with Aaron Rodgers, though, I think
Speaker 5: that's of note.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I keep hearing people say this, You're not the
Speaker 3: only one, like, oh, he's gonna be better via osmosis,
Speaker 3: via just being around Aaron. And it's not as if
Speaker 3: Aaron was brought in to make Zach better. Aaron was
Speaker 3: brought into play quarterback. So here's the thing. Everyone knows
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson at some point is getting benched. Everyone knows it.
Speaker 3: The sooner the Cowboys admit it, I'm sorry, the Jets
Speaker 3: admit it the better, which is why I don't think
Speaker 3: it's terrible. They're playing the Cowboys in Week one or
Speaker 3: week two, but week one with Zach because he'll light them.
Speaker 3: They'll light Zach up and the Jets will turn the page.
Speaker 3: It's what they gotta do. And if they don't, go ahead, Sorry.
Speaker 5: No, no, I was just saying, all right, go ahead.
Speaker 3: If they don't, then week three they have the Patriots,
Speaker 3: who Zach Wilson, just to be clear, has played four
Speaker 3: games against the Patriots. Of course he's zero four. He
Speaker 3: completes fifty percent of his passes, has two touchdowns, seven picks,
Speaker 3: and where's his rating. It's gotta be just her. Oh,
Speaker 3: you know what, that's unbelievable. I looked at I thought
Speaker 3: I was looking at his completion percentage when I said fifty.
Speaker 3: Now his completion percentage is fifty one. His passer rating
Speaker 3: against the Patriots is fifty fifty five zero. So if
Speaker 3: the if the Cowboys don't get him on the bench,
Speaker 3: the Patriots will, and then the next week they'll have
Speaker 3: a new quarterback the Sooners. The Jets admit that the
Speaker 3: better because the rest of the team's good. But we're
Speaker 3: not gonna pretend. The Jets last year turned to Flacco,
Speaker 3: Mike White, Chris Streveler. They were so out on Zach
Speaker 3: Wilson demonse. His own teammates were wearing Mike white shirts.
Speaker 3: When Zach Wilson was still on the team, they threw
Speaker 3: up half a parade for replacing him with Rogers. Now
Speaker 3: they're pretending, okay, yeah, you know what, we.
Speaker 2: Believe tweets saying that he's our guy.
Speaker 3: By the way, they got no choice, they got they
Speaker 3: got no choice. All right?
Speaker 4: Next, all right, the Dolphins electric offense is facing the
Speaker 4: patriots stout.
Speaker 2: Defense this weekend.
Speaker 4: There's anybody who can slow down Mike McDaniel's offense, it's
Speaker 4: gotta be Belichick. If the Patriots can slow down the Dolphins,
Speaker 4: is there any hope for the rest of the league.
Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing. It oddly, even before Tua appeared
Speaker 3: to be good, the one team he always played well
Speaker 3: against was New England Tua. It's the opposite of the
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson thing. Tua four games against the Patriots, four
Speaker 3: and Zho completes sixty nine percent of his passes. Now,
Speaker 3: his numbers aren't amazing. His passer rating in those games
Speaker 3: is only eighty nine, but he's never lost to the Patriots.
Speaker 3: I am interested in this game. But the fact of
Speaker 3: the matter is, Mike McDaniel is a brilliant play designer,
Speaker 3: Tyreek is the most dangerous player in the league. And
Speaker 3: Tua's when he's been healthy under McDaniel, he's been great.
Speaker 3: Like I just have to give him credit. I've got
Speaker 3: to give him credit. And the defense. While the defense
Speaker 3: didn't look good against the Chargers, it did on that
Speaker 3: final drive. There's a lot of reasons to take the
Speaker 3: Dolphins very seriously. I picked him before the year, if
Speaker 3: you remember, to win the division when everyone was all
Speaker 3: in on the Jets and people still love the Bills,
Speaker 3: and so I for my purposes, I like the Dolphins
Speaker 3: this weekend. I'm curious see what Belichick, what wrinkles he
Speaker 3: has in play, But that Dolphins ofphense with everyone healthy,
Speaker 3: looks really really good. Go ahead, Does this something you
Speaker 3: want to say about it? No?
Speaker 4: I mean Tua being Belichick's kryptonite is pretty crazy.
Speaker 5: I feel like if a quarterback is.
Speaker 4: Going in there and having Belichick and the Patriots number,
Speaker 4: that's that's pretty big, don't I don't think that's a
Speaker 4: crazy simple team.
Speaker 3: But it totally agree and it also was true even
Speaker 3: when people didn't believe in Tua. Tua's rookie year when
Speaker 3: he was not good played the Patriots, they won twenty
Speaker 3: two to twelve, even though who didn't play very well
Speaker 3: his second year, first game of the year, they won
Speaker 3: seventeen to sixteen against the Patriots, and in the final
Speaker 3: week of the season they won thirty three to twenty four.
Speaker 3: And then last year, week one of the season they
Speaker 3: beat the Patriots twenty to seven, and then he was
Speaker 3: injured for their final matchup against them.
Speaker 2: So for some.
Speaker 3: Reason, Tua plays really really well against the Dolphins, I
Speaker 3: should say when Tua plays, plays really really well against
Speaker 3: New England. All right, last one? All right?
Speaker 4: So Week one we saw Burrow and the Bengals get embarrassed.
Speaker 4: The Ravens gotta win, but suffered injuries unfortunately, and didn't
Speaker 4: look much better at offense. Now they're both facing off
Speaker 4: on Sunday. Which team are you more concerned about. I'll
Speaker 4: tell you what team I'm not concerned about. It's the Ravens.
Speaker 3: But ghead, why are you not concerned about the Ravens?
Speaker 5: Tell me you concerned?
Speaker 4: I think that the Bengals get off to it's obvious
Speaker 4: that they get off to bad starts through for eighty
Speaker 4: nine yards last week.
Speaker 2: It's yep. I've got much more.
Speaker 4: Faith in the Ravens coming out with this game than
Speaker 4: I do then the Bengals turning it around and not
Speaker 4: stand on a cold start.
Speaker 3: Okay, for a few things, I'm not certain, but that
Speaker 3: sounds like the Ravens are going to be in Demonse's
Speaker 3: tease I don't know that that to be true, but
Speaker 3: it sure sounds like they're gonna be one of Demonse's
Speaker 3: teaser teams. As bad as Joe Burrow was in Week one,
Speaker 3: Lamar wasn't way better. Lamar threw for one sixty nine
Speaker 3: zero touchdowns. A pick Zay Flowers, by the way, was awesome.
Speaker 3: Now that is the silver lining for the Ravens. Odell
Speaker 3: was nonexistent and the Ravens injuries. Mark Andrews didn't play
Speaker 3: week one. Their left tackle Ronnie Stanley got dinged again,
Speaker 3: their center got dinged, the Dobbins done for the year.
Speaker 3: They were missing someone in the secondary. They had another
Speaker 3: player in the second get hurt. They're worried. I think
Speaker 3: it's a torn peck or biceps or something similar. So
Speaker 3: the Ravens injuries piled up. They did to me, didn't
Speaker 3: look that sharp and the Bengals are desperate. I think
Speaker 3: we're opposed on this one. De mon'sy. I like Cincinnati
Speaker 3: in this spot. Cincinnati did look terrible, there's no doubt
Speaker 3: about it. But Cincinnati, you're right, they're used to slow
Speaker 3: starts and digging themselves out of that hole to a degree.
Speaker 3: I think they'll be better. I also think the Ravens
Speaker 3: injuries maybe they're aside from Dobbins, you don't expecting to
Speaker 3: be season long issues. But for this week, I think
Speaker 3: it's a tough spot. If this is what I'll tell you,
Speaker 3: I think the Cincinnati is gonna win. If Cincinnati loses,
Speaker 3: they could be in real trouble. If Cincinnati loses, I
Speaker 3: understand everyone is like, oh, they you know the last
Speaker 3: few years they were able to pull themselves out of it. Yes,
Speaker 3: But the reason the Arrowhead Invitational is the arrow At
Speaker 3: Invitational is because the Bengal never have a better record
Speaker 3: than the Chiefs. And if you fall to oh and
Speaker 3: two and you still have games, you know, another game
Speaker 3: against Baltimore, two against Pittsburgh. Will see what Pittsburgh looks like.
Speaker 3: Obviously Week one they look terrible. You play against City,
Speaker 3: you play San Francisco, you play Buffalo. Yep. So I
Speaker 3: think this is a very important game for Cincinnati, and
Speaker 3: I think they're gonna get it. We'll see if they
Speaker 3: are involved in my picks. Go ahead? No not, Oh,
Speaker 3: it looked like you were licking your chops getting readybe
Speaker 3: you're just getting thinking about the teaser. I'm very curious
Speaker 3: to see what the other legs of the teaser are
Speaker 3: because I've sniffed out that the Ravens are getting teased
Speaker 3: in this because their dogs. Wrong. Okay, maybe I'm wrong,
Speaker 3: all right, maybe I'm wrong. Also, see if my McDonald's
Speaker 3: gets here, we'll do all that. Take quick break, come back,
Speaker 3: what's right.

Speaker 3: De mom'say, where's my McDonald's you were saying during the break. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I know you wanted a mcgriddle. This is what happens
Speaker 3: when you are in LA. I'm here in New York.
Speaker 3: It is delicious. Why don't you why eat my hash brown?
Speaker 3: All wait through the burritles? Why I eat my hash brown?
Speaker 3: Why don't you go over my picks from last week?
Speaker 3: Because I did not have a winning week. Wasn't a disaster,
Speaker 3: but wasn't a winning week. We can show it to
Speaker 3: you on the screen. We have the greens or winners.
Speaker 3: The reds are losers. Go ahead, tell America how I did.
Speaker 4: All right, so we went two and three overall season
Speaker 4: record right now is looking at two and three right moves,
Speaker 4: oh when one and our picks from last week would
Speaker 4: be oh am I not no?
Speaker 3: Go ahead?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, go ahead? All right.
Speaker 4: So it was Jagg's minus four and a half at
Speaker 4: Indy was a we won that one. Green Bay plus
Speaker 4: one and a half at Chicago also.
Speaker 3: Winner by a mile, never a doubt.
Speaker 4: And then we got New England plus four versus Philly.
Speaker 3: That unfortunate that the side of that bet I got
Speaker 3: a two point conversion waved off due to a BS
Speaker 3: holding call. I like that pick. I think I was
Speaker 3: on the right side of that.
Speaker 4: Next, I don't think the losing side is ever the
Speaker 4: right side. We had Buffalo two and a half at
Speaker 4: the Jets that.
Speaker 3: I can't believe I lost that bet. Aaron Rodgers goes
Speaker 3: down four plays in, Josh Allen just can't stop turning
Speaker 3: the ball over. Serves me right for betting on Josh
Speaker 3: Allen disaster.
Speaker 4: And then lastly we have the right move. We had
Speaker 4: Pittsburgh plus two and a half versus Buffalo.
Speaker 2: Francisco.
Speaker 3: Guys, worst bet I ever made in my life, and
Speaker 3: you know what I'm making I'm making an executive decision here,
Speaker 3: No more right move. We're done with it. We're done
Speaker 3: with it. We're just five picks. I'm not picking one
Speaker 3: game more special than the others. I hate it. I'm
Speaker 3: not doing it anymore. Last year I did great in
Speaker 3: the picks, still at a losing record on the right move.
Speaker 3: I don't like it.
Speaker 4: Another thing you should do is maybe listen to your
Speaker 4: son on the podcast every once in a while. Maybe
Speaker 4: just don't bet against brock Party.
Speaker 2: Maybe, oh well, do that.
Speaker 3: What do you see the picks this week?
Speaker 2: Chief? Okay?
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, we'll see god I hash Brown all
Speaker 3: over me. All right, So here's the deal, five picks.
Speaker 3: We're two and three on the week. We'll get to
Speaker 3: Demanse's teaser in a moment. What's the first one, Demonse?
Speaker 4: All right, So the first one, We've got Cincinnati minus
Speaker 4: three versus Baltimore.
Speaker 3: Yep, love this. I love this spot for the reasons
Speaker 3: I just explained before. I was not impressed by Baltimore's
Speaker 3: passing game in Week one. The injuries are mounting for
Speaker 3: the Ravens. I don't have to lay more than three,
Speaker 3: so I'm just laying a field goal for Cincinnati at home.
Speaker 3: They're better than Baltimore. I'm only laying three points. The
Speaker 3: sharps agree with me forty four percent of the tickets,
Speaker 3: but seventy two percent of the money so far is
Speaker 3: on Cincinnati. Now, what's not good is Joe Burrow's two
Speaker 3: and five against the spread in weeks one and two
Speaker 3: in his career, and Harbaugh is twenty one and ten
Speaker 3: against the spread, pardon me, in his career, which is
Speaker 3: the best in the NFL. But I like Cincinnati in
Speaker 3: the spot. I think they get to one and one.
Speaker 3: I think that as bad as Cincinnati looked in Week one,
Speaker 3: they're not gonna look that bad again. And oddly, Cleveland
Speaker 3: has owned Joe Burrow in his career, Baltimore has not.
Speaker 3: I like Cincinnati in the spot. Yeah, all right, well
Speaker 3: next one we can go to the next pace.
Speaker 4: We've got Pittsburgh plus two and a half versus Cleveland.
Speaker 3: All right, here's the deal. Just because I Pittsburgh plus
Speaker 3: two and a half ruined me in Week one, does
Speaker 3: not believe I'm gonna throwaway everything that I saw in
Speaker 3: the preseason and in the offseason and the week two.
Speaker 3: Far too often there are overreactions stick with what you
Speaker 3: believed going into the year, if you had a strong conviction.
Speaker 3: I had a strong conviction about the Steelers. And Cleveland
Speaker 3: has won in Pittsburgh once in the last twenty years.
Speaker 3: That's noteworthy. Kevin Stefanski not a good coach. Mike Tomlin
Speaker 3: an awesome coach. That's a good thing for me. Kevin
Speaker 3: Stefanski against the spread in the AFC North six and thirteen. Tomlin,
Speaker 3: as we said last week, as a home dog, is
Speaker 3: one of the best bets in football. He's gonna all
Speaker 3: of a sudden lose back to back games as a
Speaker 3: home dog. I don't buy it. Pittsburgh has won. I
Speaker 3: did not know this. Pittsburgh's won their last twenty home
Speaker 3: Monday night football games. That's insane. So Tomlin has never
Speaker 3: lost a home Monday night football game. Uh. And So
Speaker 3: for all those reasons, and because I did not think
Speaker 3: Deshan Watson looked good at all in Week one, and
Speaker 3: the Browns lost their right tackle Jack Conklin for the season,
Speaker 3: so they're gonna have their rookie out there. All those reasons,
Speaker 3: I like Pittsburgh in this spot. Are you convinced demand
Speaker 3: that Pittsburgh stinks or do you think that was more
Speaker 3: of an aberration game.
Speaker 2: I'm not.
Speaker 4: I'm not totally sure if I'm convinced Pittsburgh's Pittsburgh's stinks,
Speaker 4: but I am not convinced on that bet.
Speaker 5: That wouldn't take them at plus two and a half
Speaker 5: for Cleveland.
Speaker 3: All right, So you don't like either of my first
Speaker 3: two bets. You don't like Cincinnati minus three or Pittsburgh
Speaker 3: plus two and a half.
Speaker 2: No, the Cincinnati one I like more than this one.
Speaker 3: But I feel great. I feel even better. I'm glad
Speaker 3: we're all the opposite side. I don't I don't know
Speaker 3: if you got your finger on the pulse of the
Speaker 3: league just yet.
Speaker 2: I like that.
Speaker 3: I feel like going more heart than head.
Speaker 2: I like it.
Speaker 4: Next all right, next week, I got this one, I
Speaker 4: bet though, yeud. We got Giants minus six at Arizona.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, listen, I'm laying a big number with a
Speaker 3: team that just got forty to nothing in Week one.
Speaker 3: I feel fine about it. The Cardinals are gonna be terrible.
Speaker 3: That Giants defense has to be furious. It never really
Speaker 3: got a chance to get off the ground in Week one.
Speaker 3: Brian Dable mortified about what happened against the Cowboys the
Speaker 3: Giants is not an exaggeration. The Giants season is over
Speaker 3: if they lose this game. If you lose forty to
Speaker 3: nothing on national TV to start the year and then
Speaker 3: you lose to a team everyone believes is tanking with
Speaker 3: Josh Dobbs playing quarterback, your season's over. So the Giants
Speaker 3: have to win this spot. I'm laying less than a touchdown,
Speaker 3: Daniel Joe. It has to bounce back, going from being
Speaker 3: up against maybe the best defense in football to one
Speaker 3: of the five worst defenses in football. It's gonna feel
Speaker 3: them like they're playing a different sport entirely. Now here's
Speaker 3: what's not good. This is a very square bet. Ninety
Speaker 3: percent of the money is on the Giants as a
Speaker 3: road favorite. Also, I'm not getting a great number. It
Speaker 3: opened at four and a half, it's now six. Where
Speaker 3: I feel better about that is as Demons knows five,
Speaker 3: five and a half not exactly key numbers. So yes,
Speaker 3: I am I am not getting great line value here,
Speaker 3: but it's not going across any of the key numbers.
Speaker 3: And Daniel Jones eighteen and five against the spread in
Speaker 3: his career or after his last twenty three straight up losses,
Speaker 3: I think the Giants. The Giants are gonna be a
Speaker 3: very popular survivor play. I like them to win. I
Speaker 3: like them to win something like twenty four to ten.
Speaker 3: The Giants in the spot.
Speaker 4: Next, all right, Next we got Tampa Bay minus two
Speaker 4: and a half versus Chicago.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, this is a square bet. I'm telling
Speaker 3: you that right now. Everyone likes the Bucks here and
Speaker 3: I went back and forth on it, I think, and
Speaker 3: it was not reassuring, I'll be honest when we saw
Speaker 3: that Baker, I thought it was a good job by
Speaker 3: Baker deciphering the Viking signals, but a bet. But it
Speaker 3: it was not reassuring moving forward because if the only
Speaker 3: reason he had success was because he figured out what
Speaker 3: plays they were running. That's concerning the flip side, is
Speaker 3: this the Bears might just be a disaster. They and
Speaker 3: I don't know how much they're going to change course.
Speaker 3: After one week they did not. I think they called
Speaker 3: one one designed run for justin fields that entire game.
Speaker 3: You know, at my pal Danny Parkins, who does afternoons
Speaker 3: on the score in Chicago, really laid into him fairly
Speaker 3: that they are trying to change the player justin fields
Speaker 3: is DJ Moore, who was one of the big pieces
Speaker 3: they got in the trade for the number one pick.
Speaker 3: He only had two targets the entire game. They weren't
Speaker 3: letting justin fields throw the ball down the field. So
Speaker 3: all these reasons, and Tampa is at home with a
Speaker 3: good defense, a healthy team, good weapons, feeling good, and
Speaker 3: I'm laying less than a field goal. I like the
Speaker 3: bucks here. I also, I also understand that this is
Speaker 3: going to be a very public bet, and I feel
Speaker 3: nervous about it. But but it is what it is.
Speaker 3: And now a play that Demonse is gonna think I'm
Speaker 3: absolutely insane on and I think the line is actually
Speaker 3: even getting better. Give me the next one, Demonse, All.
Speaker 2: Right, next one.
Speaker 4: You got the Rams at plus seven, Rams plus seven
Speaker 4: and a half versus San fran and that line is
Speaker 4: but you're now getting eight and a half eight.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So here's the deal. Divisional road favorites laying seven
Speaker 3: or more points like San Francisco is early in the year,
Speaker 3: like this week, two in the last twenty years own
Speaker 3: five against the spread. This is the reason that there
Speaker 3: are a lot of reasons people are gonna be on
Speaker 3: the niners. Okay, people are gonna be on the Niners
Speaker 3: because Shanahan traditionally has owned McVeigh. He's ten and six
Speaker 3: against the spread against McVay. Brock Purty obviously has been
Speaker 3: a covering machine. The Niners looked perfect in Week one.
Speaker 3: I understand all of those things. The Rams everyone thought
Speaker 3: they were dead on arrival. This year they looked really
Speaker 3: good against a Seattle team that I think is good.
Speaker 3: I think the Rams eventually might be dead on arrival,
Speaker 3: but right now they think we're alive. And I don't
Speaker 3: think at home they're going to get blown out by
Speaker 3: the Niners. I also think that we are that it
Speaker 3: is going to be almost impossible for brock Purdy to
Speaker 3: play as well as he did last week. Eight and
Speaker 3: a half is way too many points when the other
Speaker 3: team has the better quarterback, when the other team has
Speaker 3: Aaron Donald that is looking at not like peak Aaron Donald,
Speaker 3: but damn good. I do not think the Rams are
Speaker 3: gonna win. I don't even necessarily think this is going
Speaker 3: to be a game that's gonna be in a lot
Speaker 3: of doubt in the second half. But seven and a
Speaker 3: half and now eight and a half points is just
Speaker 3: too many points. I am taking the Rams plus eight
Speaker 3: and a half against San Francisco. Obviously, demanse, you think
Speaker 3: San Francisco is gonna win? Do you do you like
Speaker 3: this pick at all? Because of the points I'm getting.
Speaker 5: I do like the pick. Wow, I like it a lot.
Speaker 5: I like it a lot.
Speaker 3: Actually that is that is shocking to me. But go ahead.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I don't like it more than my picks.
Speaker 4: But yeah, I think, oh the I I think that
Speaker 4: the uh, the Rams did play well last week, and
Speaker 4: I don't think that I think brock Party is good,
Speaker 4: but I don't think that they're going to come out
Speaker 4: there and blow the Rams out. If if it were
Speaker 4: in San Francisco, I'd have like a totally different difference
Speaker 4: out the line.
Speaker 3: It looks like that San Francisco line would be like thirteen.
Speaker 3: Like it's just too many points for an early season
Speaker 3: road divisional game. So here are the go ahead. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: Also, the one thing I don't like about this because
Speaker 4: you don't have the Chiefs in here and they're going
Speaker 4: and they're playing that, they're playing the Jags.
Speaker 5: They're coming back from being embarrassed getting beaten.
Speaker 4: By the Lions. I feel like you, of all people,
Speaker 4: would hammer the Chiefs in this scenario.
Speaker 3: So here's the thing. If you were gonna bet the Chiefs,
Speaker 3: you needed to do it earlier in the week. The
Speaker 3: Chiefs were minus two, they're now minus three and a half.
Speaker 3: That is a huge point and a half difference, the
Speaker 3: fact that it crossed over the three. And now if
Speaker 3: the Chiefs win, if the Chiefs are up ten like
Speaker 3: the playoff game was, they're up ten and then the
Speaker 3: Jags I think with the playoff game, maybe the Jags
Speaker 3: got late field goal, doesn't matter, but the back door
Speaker 3: cover is just so alive when you're laying three and
Speaker 3: a half, and it would just be such a square
Speaker 3: bet where you could have gotten the Chiefs at minus
Speaker 3: two or two and a half, and now to lay
Speaker 3: the three and a half, I just can't do it.
Speaker 3: And so that's why at two and a half, I would,
Speaker 3: in fact, in one of my season long picks contests
Speaker 3: where the lines lock, like Wednesday night, they were two
Speaker 3: and a half and I did include them, But at
Speaker 3: three and a half, I'm not doing it. So that's
Speaker 3: the reasoning there. Now to the recap quickly of our
Speaker 3: picks before we get to Demon's teaser. I've got Cincinnati
Speaker 3: minus three, the Giants minus six, Pittsburgh plus two and
Speaker 3: a half, Tampa minus two and a half, and the
Speaker 3: Rams plus eight and a half. Against San Francisco last week,
Speaker 3: I I went two and three, so I'm down one
Speaker 3: point three units now. Demanse last week in his teaser,
Speaker 3: we can show it to you Demonse's teaser and talk.
Speaker 3: We'll talk through it for a moment. Tampa plus twelve
Speaker 3: didn't even need it, Vegas plus ten didn't even need it,
Speaker 3: Cincinnati plus three and a half needed instead of a
Speaker 3: six point teaser, needed to do a sixty point teaser.
Speaker 3: And I am listen, I am not I I'm not
Speaker 3: doing anything other than trying to be helpful. The reason
Speaker 3: you got from my grade on this a B minus
Speaker 3: was because I told you the Cincinnati leg you were
Speaker 3: not getting adequate value, and then the Cincinnati leg you
Speaker 3: end up losing on. So let's I don't know what
Speaker 3: your teaser is this week. I'm gonna let you take
Speaker 3: it from here. I believe in you. I think you're
Speaker 3: gonna learn your lesson, and I think it's gonna be
Speaker 3: a great one. Go ahead.
Speaker 4: It really helped. Yes, I was honestly weary about it.
Speaker 4: The entire time. But let's get into this week's teaser. Yeah,
Speaker 4: we got Rams plus seven and a half to fourteen
Speaker 4: and a half. It's the seventh. It is a three
Speaker 4: team seven point, three team seven point teaser. By the way,
Speaker 4: Rams plus seven plus one, right, and then we got
Speaker 4: Ravens plus three to plus ten, and then we got
Speaker 4: Jags plus three and a half to plus ten and
Speaker 4: a half.
Speaker 2: That's the teaser, ladies and gentlemen, demonse, that's right, a
Speaker 2: good teaser.
Speaker 3: That is a great teaser. Some people, I'm sure would
Speaker 3: be teasing the Rams Niners game in the other direction,
Speaker 3: meaning teasing the Niners from seven and a half down
Speaker 3: to a pick them or from eight and a half
Speaker 3: to plus one and a half. I like your side
Speaker 3: of it more. You got the Jags at a good number.
Speaker 3: You got Baltimore across key numbers. I I here's here's
Speaker 3: the only question I have. Have you officially placed that
Speaker 3: yet or are you waiting till later either today or
Speaker 3: tomorrow to place so.
Speaker 5: The Rams number I think has changed is what it sounds.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, so you would get it at you would
Speaker 3: get the Rams at fifteen and a half. And here's
Speaker 3: the other thing, you might Baltimore in some shot, like
Speaker 3: right now, Baltimore plus three is even money and Cincinnati
Speaker 3: minus three is minus one twenty, which means that one
Speaker 3: might move to three and a half, which then would
Speaker 3: give you plus ten and a half. So that so
Speaker 3: the point I'm making is, if you're gonna someone out there,
Speaker 3: you're locked in on this, except we can change the
Speaker 3: rams to fifteen and a half. You're locked in on
Speaker 3: this for our show's purposes. But if someone wants to
Speaker 3: trail Demonse's teaser, maybe way to beat and see if
Speaker 3: you can get Baltimore at plus three and a half.
Speaker 3: So then it goes across the ten to plus ten
Speaker 3: and a half. But demanse as far as process as
Speaker 3: you're getting, you have two home teams catching fifteen and
Speaker 3: a half and ten and a half, and then a
Speaker 3: divisional game against a team that doesn't start the season
Speaker 3: great getting ten points. I think that's a pretty sharp bet.
Speaker 3: I think that's an A level teaser. Yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 4: No, I felt really good, and honestly, I used Cincinnati
Speaker 4: the teaser that.
Speaker 5: I failed on last week. I obviously used that.
Speaker 4: But Andrew Ortez says, those are such great teasers I'm
Speaker 4: gonna use the McDonald's app to treat myself to a
Speaker 4: good breakfast because he knows that he's gonna get your
Speaker 4: money off of my teaser. Thank you, Andrew or tease.
Speaker 3: That is very smart. All right, listen, time now for
Speaker 3: the offer and demands. We're doing this a little bit differently.
Speaker 4: Evidently, yes, we are doing it a little bit differently.
Speaker 4: So we've got a special offer for you this week,
Speaker 4: and would you like to go to the casino?
Speaker 5: Let me let me ask you that question.
Speaker 2: Answer to that's always yes, hypothetic.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, sweet, So if you accept this offer,
Speaker 4: you'll trigger a gambling mini game.
Speaker 2: Do you accept it? Sounds like you do.
Speaker 3: The answer is yep.
Speaker 4: So we're gonna We're gonna go to the casino, and
Speaker 4: our game of choice today is the slot machine. The
Speaker 4: slot machine will give you the parameters for a bet
Speaker 4: you need to make. The category is are bet type,
Speaker 4: division and wild card.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's do it. So let's throw up the first
Speaker 3: slot machine and we'll see. Okay, this is great. This
Speaker 3: is really well done by the Blue Duck folks. All right,
Speaker 3: I'm pulling the lever. Go ahead, come on, all right,
Speaker 3: A money line NFC East parlay. All right, So a
Speaker 3: money line NFC East parlay. All right, So Vikings Eagles
Speaker 3: I'm not including in this. I gotta see, so the
Speaker 3: Giants on the money line, and then it would be
Speaker 3: Commanders Broncos. Oh well, this is an easy one. I
Speaker 3: don't think it's gonna pay all that well, but I'll
Speaker 3: find out. Right now, my money line parlay for the
Speaker 3: NFC East would be a Giants Cowboys money line parlay,
Speaker 3: which honestly, is gonna sound so good you might have
Speaker 3: to bet it. The Giants to beat the Cardinals and
Speaker 3: the Cowboys to beat the Jets. That's only minus one forty.
Speaker 3: I might actually make that bet. I like it, all right,
Speaker 3: it looks like we have more, but that my money
Speaker 3: line parlay is the Giants to win outright and the
Speaker 3: Cowboys to win outright at minus one. Do we have
Speaker 3: more from the casino? I think we I think we're
Speaker 3: doing three of these, all right, Next, let me go
Speaker 3: ahead and the yeah, there we go. All right, I'm
Speaker 3: pulling the lever bank. Let's see what we land on
Speaker 3: against the spread. AFC West alternate line. Oh now, we're
Speaker 3: really being exotic here, but okay, let me see what
Speaker 3: we can get AFC West. So my options are the
Speaker 3: Raiders against the Bills.
Speaker 4: Gosh, chef's money line perhaps, well the oh, this guy's
Speaker 4: sit here.
Speaker 3: The no, I'm trying to figure out the right bet.
Speaker 3: I'm doing this on the fly. The Bronco so can
Speaker 3: I I think I can. And the Chargers are so
Speaker 3: the Broncos are playing Washington, the Chargers are playing the Vikings.
Speaker 3: And you know what, I'm not doing this one that
Speaker 3: there's there's no combos that I want to make. There's
Speaker 3: and if I were to make them, it would have
Speaker 3: to be to to convoluted what I think I would do.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, you know what, I don't want to
Speaker 3: actually not do it. Let me just try to put
Speaker 3: one together very quickly for you here. So we would
Speaker 3: do buy sell points, So we would take the Bills
Speaker 3: down to from minus eight and a half their alternate
Speaker 3: line of the Bills minus two and a half. So
Speaker 3: let me get that's minus three point thirty. We then
Speaker 3: are going to take the Chiefs from minus three and
Speaker 3: a half to also minus two and a half where
Speaker 3: they once were. So let me give it to you
Speaker 3: real quick again. This is a cowardly bet. But this
Speaker 3: is you know, we're doing the slot machine, the Chiefs
Speaker 3: back to where they were at minus two and a half,
Speaker 3: and then we will last one on there. We're gonna
Speaker 3: fade the Broncos, so we will take Washington instead of
Speaker 3: plus three three and a half, we'll take Washington on
Speaker 3: the money line. So it's the Bills minus two and
Speaker 3: a half against the Raiders, the Chiefs minus two and
Speaker 3: a half against the Jags, and Washington to beat the Broncos. Outright,
Speaker 3: it's plus four sixty. That's the one I created. So
Speaker 3: that's an AFC West because all those games involve the
Speaker 3: AFC West obviously, all right, last one please, all right?
Speaker 3: So we will we will pull the we will pull
Speaker 3: the slot machine, and let's see prop AFC South long shot. Jesus, guys,
Speaker 3: we might have to go back into the lab on
Speaker 3: this slot machine thing. And by back in the lab,
Speaker 3: I mean I need to pay more diligent attention to
Speaker 3: our pre show prep. Where they did I now realize
Speaker 3: give me all of these beforehand, and I could have
Speaker 3: crafted them, but I didn't do it. So that's on me,
Speaker 3: not on the produces. My apologies an AFC South prop
Speaker 3: bet that's a long shot, all right. So we're not
Speaker 3: gonna do anything with the Jags. We're not gonna do
Speaker 3: what are the the who to the Texans? The Texans cults?
Speaker 5: Bet?
Speaker 3: Okay? All right? So then this is what we're gonna do.
Speaker 3: Touchdown scorer props. Where's first TD first touchdown score? That's
Speaker 3: what I want, not anytime, first touchdown score, Anthony Richardson,
Speaker 3: nine to one?
Speaker 2: Do it?
Speaker 3: I actually like that. Bet Anthony Richardson running it in
Speaker 3: nine to one first touchdown scorer props. Let's go ahead
Speaker 3: and do that. We don't even need to worry about
Speaker 3: anything else, all right, guys, I'm gonna be honest. The
Speaker 3: slot machine was an excellent idea that I did not
Speaker 3: execute properly because I did not put these bets in beforehand.
Speaker 3: That's my apologies. I got distracted with Dan Patrick's show.
Speaker 3: I was a guest on it right before our show
Speaker 3: started today. So I'll take the l on that we
Speaker 3: can do this again next week. I'll do a better
Speaker 3: job on it. Take a quick break to Monsea, come back,
Speaker 3: answer some of your chat questions. What's right? All right?
Speaker 3: Welcome back in What's Right with Nick WRT Episode one,
Speaker 3: seventy seven. Let's get to a few listener questions real quick, demanse.
Speaker 4: This is a really good question. We got Christian Laska
Speaker 4: here at lazo Uh. He asked, Yeah, how different would
Speaker 4: your opinion of brockby if he did exactly what he's
Speaker 4: done except he was drafted number one overall?
Speaker 2: Great question?
Speaker 3: Massively Yeah, massively be massively different because it would mean
Speaker 3: he likely had way more talent, was way better in college,
Speaker 3: had a better pedigree, probably was taller, probably was stronger,
Speaker 3: probably had more reasons to believe in Like, that's not
Speaker 3: a controversial thing, Like this is a guys who Yeah,
