No one's more festive 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: if you're watching on the YouTube channel than our good 6 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: friend Matthew Friedman. Pat Fitzmorris here as well, get his 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: grinch on for everybody, and I, of course the Clark 8 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: Riswold of the bunch. Where's the tail in all? That's 9 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: all I want? Where is the tail? And all? Oh 10 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: my goodness, what a crazy day of Christmas games we had. 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: But it's time to look forward to Week seventeen. If 12 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 1: you can believe it, we're almost at the end. Some 13 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: of these races are getting real tight, lots of play 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: for still in the NFL, and we're going to talk 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: all about it. But gentlemen, let's start at the top, 16 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: because we've got one more game before we close the 17 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: book and close the chapter of Week sixteen in the NFL, 18 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: it's the Los Angeles Chargers of the Indianapolis Colts. The 19 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: number on this one is four on the side of 20 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Chargers going on the roads to the 21 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: Colts home underdogs, as one would think Folds is playing quarterback. 22 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: Forty five and a half is the number you like 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: the Colts for the upset at home, while you get 24 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: plus one seventy five on the money line, Pat fitz 25 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: More is, let's talk about it any love for this 26 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: game tonight? As we try to look ahead to week seventeen, it. 27 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 2: Seems like it's been forever since the Colts blew that 28 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: thirty three to nothing halftime lead, Joe, and we still 29 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,919 Speaker 2: have yet to see how they are going to rebound 30 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: from that, And I feel like this line is maybe 31 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: giving them a hair too many credit for their resilience, 32 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 2: and we don't know if that's the case. 33 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: And they have no Jonathan Taylor anymore. 34 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: They've made a quarterback change because Matt Ryan was destined 35 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: to be a walking avatar of the most embarrassing loss 36 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 2: in franchise history and certainly one of the most embarrassing 37 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: losses of any team ever. So yeah, like, I can't 38 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: bet the Colts on this, Like, given this line suggesting 39 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: that they're going to stay close to a pretty good 40 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 2: Chargers team, you know, I don't really see any value 41 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: on the total, but I'm inclined to bet on the 42 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: Chargers here. 43 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: I hope that's not Matt Ryan's last game in the NFL. 44 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: That's a crappy way to go out. I mean, I just, 45 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: you know, shout out to Matt Ryan. He's been a 46 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: really good quarterback for a very long time. All right, Friedman, 47 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: your thoughts on Monday Night football? 48 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 4: Here? 49 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: Do the Colts have a little fight in them? Could 50 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: they keep this one close? 51 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 4: Yeah? 52 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 5: I mean I have this projected at three point seventy five, 53 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 5: so pretty close to the market the ever so slightest 54 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 5: of lanes towards the Colts. But it's not as if 55 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 5: at all. I want to bet that Nick Foles has 56 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 5: not been like the backup quarterback, like he hasn't been 57 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 5: practicing before this past week with the team, like he's 58 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 5: been on the scout team kind of helping them prepare 59 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 5: doing what the opponent's offense is doing. And so it's 60 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 5: not as if he's out there really been practicing the 61 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 5: Colts offense whatever the Colts offense actually is, because it's 62 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 5: changed a couple of times during the season. So it's 63 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 5: not a great situation for him. I don't even know 64 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 5: if he's going to be an upgrade on Matt Ryan. 65 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 5: I think it's probably a lateral move and maybe a 66 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 5: little bit of a downgrade. 67 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 4: Still. 68 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 5: I have this projected with the slightest value on the Colts, 69 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 5: but that doesn't mean I'm betting it. 70 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 4: At the same time, the. 71 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 5: Chargers anything more like historically anything more than three points 72 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 5: for them has kind of been too much because they 73 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 5: tend to play down to the level of their competition. 74 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 5: So I think this line is right about where it 75 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 5: should be, and I'm not betting it. 76 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 4: All right, don't forget everybody. 77 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: Bet MGM the King of Sportsbook, the sponsor of the show, 78 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: and you can get a risk free one thousand dollars 79 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: first bet, plus an extra twenty five dollars when you 80 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: use the promo code betting Pros twenty five at sign 81 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: up again, that's Betting Pros twenty five.

Finally it's here Thursday night football. 88 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: We've got the Dallas Cowboys coming off a huge win 89 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: against the Eagles against the Tennessee Titans coming off a 90 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: huge loss to Houston Texans. Yes, that's right, I said it. 91 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: So what seems like what it should be a ten 92 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: point favorite spot here for Dallas even though they're on 93 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: the road. Forty two and a half is the number 94 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: plus three fifty for the Tennessee Titans. Friedman, I don't 95 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: know about you, but this feels like the classic Dallas 96 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: trap where Dallas has a big win against the Eagles 97 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: at home and everyone's riding high, and then they're gonna 98 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: go out and they probably should beat this Tennessee team. 99 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, the ten seems pretty big to me. 100 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong. 101 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 4: What do you think? 102 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm looking at the odds page now that we 103 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 5: have at betting Pros, and it's fluctuating around nine and 104 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 5: a half in ten and I have this exactly at 105 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 5: nine and a half. And you know, I wish I 106 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 5: had bet it in the look ahead market when this 107 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 5: number was six and at that point, like I did 108 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 5: show some value on the Cowboys. And obviously my projections 109 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 5: have changed to account for what we saw this past week, 110 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 5: but even then I saw value on the Cowboys. The 111 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 5: reason why I didn't bet it that was because of 112 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 5: all of the injury situations with the Titans, and there 113 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 5: was a possibility, well, you know, maybe some of these 114 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 5: teams come some of these guys come back for the Titans, 115 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 5: and you know, Gardner Minshew coming in for the Eagles, 116 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 5: maybe he's not that bad, and so I was thinking 117 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 5: maybe there would be some value left on the Cowboys. 118 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 5: But no, the exact opposite of that happened. You know, 119 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 5: the Titans just got blown out by the lowly Texans 120 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 5: as you mentioned there. And the Cowboys, I mean, it's 121 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 5: hard to say they looked great against the Eagles, but 122 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 5: you know, still that was a pretty good Eagles team 123 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 5: and they got the win. Again, I just projected at 124 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 5: nine and a half exactly, so I don't see any 125 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 5: value in the market. But I did bet the early 126 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 5: line when this came out at eight and a half 127 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 5: because I thought the you know, after the look Ahead 128 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 5: released last night at eight and a half, because I thought, Okay, 129 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 5: this line's going to move closer to ten, so it 130 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 5: has I wouldn't be betting it where it is. And 131 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 5: as far as the total goes Man, I have as 132 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 5: exactly a forty three and a half as the number 133 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 5: I have at forty three point eight, So not really 134 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 5: doing anything given the current state of the market. 135 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 4: All right, Fitz, what's your take on the market here? 136 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: Again, I just tend seems like a really big number 137 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: to me, especially Tennessee coming off a loss there that's 138 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: kind of embarrassing for them, let's be honest. So you 139 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: think they show some respectability and keep this one closer 140 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: than the double digit points we have right now on betting. 141 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: Bros Possible Joe, And it does seem like a big 142 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: number to me, mainly because I'm not inclined to lay 143 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: that sort of number with Mike McCarthy coaching on the road, Like. 144 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 3: I'm just I'm not going to do it. 145 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 2: I mean, as a Packers fan who's seen enough of 146 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy's act, like I just, you know, especially when 147 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 2: I have so much coach for the Earth, so much 148 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: respect for the coach on the other sideline, Mike Rabel, 149 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: And certainly things have not gone well for the Titans 150 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: that during this five game losing streak, They're averaging fifteen 151 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 2: point two points a game. Malik Willis, I know conditions 152 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: were not great with the cold and Nashville and rolling 153 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: blackouts across Tennessee, but I mean he threw for ninety 154 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: nine yards, and if you factor in sacks, the net 155 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 2: passing yardage for the Titans was eighty eight this past week. 156 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: So the one big flaw maybe the Cowboys have right 157 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: now is the quarterback position with what injuries have done 158 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: to them, and I don't think Malik Willis can really 159 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: take advantage of that flaw. 160 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 3: So I'm probably just gonna walk away from this one. 161 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 2: If anything, maybe maybe take the under like I've got 162 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: Friedman's got it at forty three. 163 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 3: Eight, I've got it at forty three. 164 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: So but I don't know if half a point of 165 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: value is enough to suck me into this game at all. 166 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 5: Here's one thing I will I will say about the Titans, 167 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 5: and Fitz mentioned this. You know, Mike Vrabel as an underdog, 168 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 5: especially at home, like that has been the spot where 169 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 5: you have wanted to back them, especially as a big underdog, 170 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: and so like this is the Verbel spot. But this 171 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 5: is not a Rabel team given how injured they are 172 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 5: in with Malik Willis at quarterback, like, I don't think 173 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 5: they can operate the offense, even though it's historically a 174 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 5: bare bones offense, I don't think they can even operate 175 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 5: it at that level. So again, to fits his point, 176 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 5: I don't think Willis has what he needs to have 177 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 5: to be able to exploit the issues the Cowboys have 178 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 5: in this secondary. 179 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: Speaking of limited quarterback play, I give you the Atlanta 180 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: Falcons and Arizona Cardinals. 181 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 4: Boys. 182 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons three point home favorites, So go ahead, 183 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: just throw a coin in the air of the Arizona 184 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: Cardinals travel into Atlanta. Thirty nine and a half is 185 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: the number plus one thirty on the money line. If 186 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: like Arizona here, and I mean, look, we'll see who 187 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: quarterback is for them this week, if Cope McCoy is 188 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: back or not. It was an ugly game last night 189 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: by all accounts, so fits when you're taking a look 190 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: at this one right now, any early value would all 191 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: pop up to you because this one feels like it's 192 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: dead on and just kind of run the other way, 193 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: or bet Arizona on the money line. 194 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 4: And walk away. 195 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm probably just gonna walk away, Joe, like I 196 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: just can't feel. Oh, please don't, please, don't give us 197 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: a trace McSorley versus Desmond Raider matchup, Oh my god. 198 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 3: Well so not. 199 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: Out of the range of outcomes, Yeah. 200 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: I mean probably probably cult McCoy comes back, in which 201 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: case maybe the Cardinals are a little undervalued. 202 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 3: But I don't know right now. 203 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: I have it like, based on mcsorely playing again, I've 204 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: got Falcons. 205 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: The procol kind of follows the way it's gone all year. 206 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 1: It should be back and Freeman. Does that mean it's 207 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: a perfect time to jump on the Arizona plus one 208 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: thirty before this number starts to change with more. 209 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 5: That's assuming you actually want to bet on the Cardinals, as. 210 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to bet on the Falcon right. 211 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: Right. 212 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 5: As as Fitz knows, I tend to like betting on 213 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 5: the Cardinals when they are road underdogs like that has 214 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 5: been the spot where head coach Cliff Kingsbury has outperformed 215 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 5: pretty significantly, outperformed expectations. I do think Colt McCoy is 216 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 5: going to come back, or there's at least a probability. 217 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 5: I think it's likelier than not he comes back. He 218 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 5: did get in a limited practice on Friday, which is 219 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 5: kind of a bullish indication for his ability to return 220 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 5: this week. So I have it sort of like projected 221 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 5: right now like sort of like sixty percent chance that 222 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 5: McCoy comes back. And if he does come back, I 223 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 5: think this line moves under three, So it probably is 224 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 5: if you're looking for the Cardinals, I think now is 225 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 5: the time to bet it. And even if McCoy doesn't 226 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 5: come back, I don't think this line moves to three 227 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 5: and a half. I can't imagine a world in which 228 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 5: this moves at three and a half, and if we 229 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,839 Speaker 5: do live in that world, I will be betting on 230 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 5: the Cardinals at three and a half. 231 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: Okay, let's go to the Chicago Bears and the Detroit Lions. Detroit, 232 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 1: things were going so well, and then all of a 233 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: sudden they ran into the Carolina Panthers. I don't know. 234 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 4: That doesn't seem right, but that's what happened. 235 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: So Detroit now goes back home after Look, they put 236 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: together some really good wins here. They are five point favorites, 237 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: though against the Chicago Bears. Much different. Here we're in 238 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: a dome. The elements This one certainly has a lot 239 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: of high scoring potential. Fifty one and a half is 240 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: the number plus one eighty five on the bear side. 241 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Freeman, when I look at this one, 242 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: fifty one and a half seems small. I'm going to 243 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: go on the over on this one. With the way 244 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: these two defenses have played. And when you take Justin 245 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 1: Fields and put him indoors, I think this is a 246 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: really good recipe here to have a nice day for points. 247 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: What do you think? 248 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I haven't projected at fifty two point three. And 249 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 5: it's not just Justin Phillis indoors. It's also Jared Goff, 250 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 5: who you know. I'm already starting to write up my 251 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 5: Favorites piece for week seventeen, and Goff will definitely be 252 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 5: in there because he has enormous home road splits this year. 253 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 5: You know, just when he's in a dome, he's throwing 254 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 5: for over three hundred yards, like, you know, three touchdowns, 255 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 5: hardly any interceptions, like he smashes when he is at 256 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 5: home in that dome. And I am the idiot who 257 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 5: bet this at Detroit minus six and a half on 258 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 5: the look ahead because I thought they were going to 259 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 5: smash the Panthers, and that obviously did not happen, but 260 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 5: I still have this projected at Detroit six and a half. 261 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 5: Like the Bears are missing multiple cornerbacks in their secondary. 262 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 5: Their defense is bad anyway, but missing multiple quarterbacks, missing 263 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 5: a starting safety. This is a Jared Goff game, which 264 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 5: means a lot of points for the Lions. I think 265 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 5: they cover. And I think this number, Josie said, goes 266 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 5: to the over fitz. 267 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 1: Jared Goff is an indoor cat. We talk about it 268 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: all the time. It does not like the outside. That 269 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 1: being said, fifteen and a half to me, to me, 270 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: you smash this one. I think this number is going 271 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: to climb the more people have to marinate on it. 272 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 4: What do you think. 273 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: I'm with you guys on the total. I don't like 274 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: the side as much as Friedman does. Like I have 275 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 2: seen the Bears hang in with too many good teams 276 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 2: and you know, like pretty they've been spunky. 277 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 3: But I agree the defense is so depleted. 278 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: They have given up thirty two point six points per 279 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 2: game over their last eight. They're thirty first in defensive DVOA. 280 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 2: Only the Raiders are keeping them out of the cellar. 281 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: You know they had. 282 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: Been scoring a lot themselves, but they've been held to 283 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: twenty points or fewer in four straight. 284 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 3: But I don't know the Lions. 285 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 2: Their run defense was looking so good for about a 286 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: month and then they were just completely trampled by the 287 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 2: Panthers in Carolina. So some thing obviously ruptured in that 288 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 2: defense this past week. And bad time for leaks to 289 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 2: be sprung in your run defense with the Bears coming 290 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: to town, because that's what they want to do. They 291 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: just want to run you asunder. And yeah, so the 292 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 2: first time these teams played thirty one to thirty Lions 293 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: and they put up over seven. 294 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 3: Hundred yards of offense combined, so. 295 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 4: That all of that doesn't seem like enough. 296 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 2: Seven and thirty one, Yeah, I think this was like 297 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: an over, even at the inflated number. 298 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 4: Let's go all right. 299 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: My new favorite team, the Jacksonville Jaguars four point favorites 300 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: ahead of the Houston Texans traveling to Houston, OH. Thursday 301 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: night football was fun, freedom and I did the the 302 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: Little show together on BP. Hit the Jaguars on the 303 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: money line, hit the Treylor Lawrence anytime touchdown, ooh, it 304 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: with lots of good things. 305 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 4: It was a nice night. 306 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: Let me tell you Thursday, and I got a Zach 307 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: Wilson benching. All the things came together at the same time. 308 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: It was a beautiful thing. And Jacksonville has a shot 309 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: here at this division. In fact, they are leading this 310 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: division as of right now today. This is a shocking 311 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 1: state of affairs. 312 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 4: I'm all in on the Jacks. 313 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: They got a lot of pressure on Zach Wilson in 314 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: that game. I think that the Jacksonville Jaguars feel like 315 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: it's hey, we're playing with house money. No one expected 316 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: us to be here. It makes them super dangerous. I 317 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: don't think because Houston won last week they will take 318 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: Houston for granted. I think that was one of those 319 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: things where you could say this is a trap game, 320 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: maybe forty eight hours ago, not now. I don't think 321 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: it is because they say, oh, look, you beat the Titans, 322 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: we better be prepared for this one. 323 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 4: Fits. 324 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: What do you make of this game? I think Jacksonville 325 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: wins this one handily. Again minus two to ten on 326 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: the money line for them, But at the same time 327 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: you get minus one twelve on the four so that 328 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: seems to be the way to go. 329 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Joe, doesn't it feel like the Texans 330 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 2: are maybe getting too much credit for beating the Titans 331 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 2: in weird weather conditions with a backup quarterback. As Friedman 332 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 2: pointed out, Titans have a lot of injury problems, and 333 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 2: maybe also part of it is that the Texans did 334 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: beat the Jaguars in the first meeting between these two 335 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: teams way back in Week five, but the Jaguars out 336 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 2: gained the Texans four hundred and twenty two yards to 337 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: two hundred and forty eight in that game, pretty much 338 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 2: had the better of play, but they lost the turnover 339 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: battle two to nothing and they were zero for three 340 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: on fourth thouts. So, like, we've seen Trevor Lawrence morph 341 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: into this beautiful butterfly breaking out of the cocoon over 342 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 2: his last seven games, fourteen touchdown passes, one interception, completing 343 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: just a shade under seventy percent of his throws and 344 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: averaging seven point five yards per attempt. 345 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: So I do think. 346 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: They just have too much firepower the Davis Mills led 347 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 2: Texans in this one. 348 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: All right, Friedman, Will the butterfly lead Jacksonville Jaguars and 349 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: Telah Lawrence tramp stamp the Houston Texans this week? 350 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 5: I mean I'm not as enthusiastic or poetic about this 351 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 5: team as FITS is, but I do have it projected 352 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 5: at four and a half. So I am leaning towards 353 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 5: the Jags here and I certainly wouldn't be betting on 354 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 5: the Texans, although I will say like I have been 355 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 5: impressed with the Texans what we've seen out of them 356 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 5: in the past three weeks. I've been I've been too 357 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 5: low on them because it's not uncommon for teams, especially 358 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 5: you know, teams that are in that front running position 359 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 5: for the number one pick just absolutely to die at 360 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 5: this point, and they have not done that. Like they 361 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 5: have played tough against three teams who are very live 362 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 5: to go to the playoffs, like two teams who are 363 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 5: championship contenders, and then the Titans, who were leading the division. 364 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 4: Like I'm in, I am impressed. 365 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 5: So it would not surprise me if the if the 366 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 5: Texans did cover this game, because it's not just what 367 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 5: we saw last week, it's what we've seen out of 368 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 5: them the past three weeks, and so I've been low 369 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 5: on them. I've been too low on them, and so 370 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 5: I am moving them up. But even with the move up, 371 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 5: I still like the Jags in this spot. 372 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: All right, Well, when you thought the season couldn't get 373 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: any worse for the Denver Broncos, you were wrong. Denver 374 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: Bronco's go salacked by the Los Angeles Rams. And to 375 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: make it even worse, I know they were doing that 376 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: Nickelodeon broadcast at the same time, so Squidward Live called 377 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: an interception of Russell Wilson. It was amazing. I don't 378 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:13,719 Speaker 1: know if you've seen the clip on Twitter. 379 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 4: I have. It was awesome. 380 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: I highly suggest everybody go out there and looking hard. 381 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: But here we go. Let's talk about the Denver Broncos 382 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: thirteen point underdogs traveling to Kansas City. Kancy Chiefs came 383 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 1: out with another win this week. Forty three and a 384 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: half is the number for this one. If you like 385 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: Denver on the money line, you're getting plus five ten. 386 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: But I don't think that's a very good call for 387 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: even Let's talk about here. Thirteen a very big number 388 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: for Kansasity team that has had trouble putting away people 389 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 1: this year. There's no doubt that's definitely part of it. 390 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: Prolific is not what they are. But is it just 391 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: a matter of the Denver Broncos are that bad with 392 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: a thirteen is safe man. 393 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 5: This numbers even moved to thirteen and a half at 394 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 5: fan Duel, and last night this was eleven and a half. 395 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 5: Less than a week ago, on Thursday, in the look 396 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 5: ahead market, this number was ten, and I was in 397 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 5: just you know, to really put massive contexts, long term 398 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 5: context on this, and the offseason look ahead market this 399 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 5: number was four four and a half. On Thursday when 400 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 5: it was ten, I was showing value on the Chiefs 401 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 5: and I was just thinking, Okay, I sort of want 402 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 5: to bet this. At the same time, the Chiefs have 403 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 5: not really been good at covering large spreads and that 404 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 5: Denver defense was starting to come on. Denver covered last 405 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 5: time these two teams played, which wasn't that long ago. 406 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 5: I didn't bet it, and now I'm sort of regretting 407 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,479 Speaker 5: that I didn't bet it because it has moved. But 408 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 5: in my projections, I still have it at twelve point seventy. 409 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 4: Five, and I don't know. 410 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 5: I don't want any part of I definitely don't want 411 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 5: the Broncos based on what we just saw out of them, 412 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 5: but I do not want the Chiefs in this spot 413 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 5: because they're just This is not a spot in which 414 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 5: they it's orkly cover that said, I know if I 415 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 5: were to look through like different trends databases, we would 416 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 5: definitely see something that says you want to bet on 417 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 5: a team that just got their butts handed to them, 418 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 5: like the next game, Like you know, they lose by thirty, 419 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 5: they probably cover like a sixty percent rate, sixty five 420 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 5: percent rate the next week. I'm sure there's a trend 421 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 5: like that, like this is the spot to be betting 422 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 5: on the Broncos. 423 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:25,959 Speaker 4: But I don't want to do it. 424 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: I think you make a very good case for that. 425 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: But I say exactly saying I don't want to do 426 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: it either. Does that mean you just stay away from 427 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: this game? 428 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 4: Fits? What are your thoughts? 429 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, humiliation is a great motivator, and I think we're 430 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: going to see a good effort from the Broncos in 431 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 2: one of their last two games, because every team wants 432 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 2: to go into the season. Like if a team looks 433 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 2: terrible the few weeks like running up to Week eighteen, 434 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 2: I like betting those teams in Week eighteen because I 435 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: know that, uh you know, like I've had players tell 436 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 2: me that when I used to like interview players at 437 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 2: when I was at Pro Football weekly in a different 438 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: lifetime that you know, they get fired up for Week 439 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: eight team because they do not want to go into 440 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 2: the offseason with a bad taste in their mouth, like 441 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 2: they want to feel at least some pride that you know. 442 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 2: They played all the way to the whistle, so to speak, 443 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 2: and so I could see Denver getting it together at 444 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 2: some point. But man, like, the one thing this team 445 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 2: had going for them was their defense, and they did 446 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 2: not hold the Rams to any sort of scoreless drive yesterday. 447 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: Until the Rams knelt down. 448 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 3: At the end of the game. 449 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 2: They've scored points on every single offensive drive. So this game, 450 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 2: I mean, it definitely has the feel of a squash match. 451 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 2: And I will bet the UH spread gets to fifteen 452 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 2: at some point this week. I think it's going to 453 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 2: go up that high soul surprise me. 454 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 4: I mean they've imploded. 455 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, if this moves, if this moves through fourteen, I 456 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 5: will fill honor bound at that point to bet on 457 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 5: the Colts. I'm dot colest the Broncos, just as I 458 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 5: did last time. These two teams late and amazingly they 459 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 5: got the cover. And it's not like I felt great 460 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 5: about it then. I just think I got lucky but 461 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 5: if it goes through fourteen, I'm probably betting it. 462 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: I guarantee it's gonna happen, and I like, like you. 463 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: I have seen the Chiefs act like the cat who 464 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: caught the mouse and batted around all season and not 465 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: cover these big numbers, so I might have to join 466 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 2: you if it does go over fourteen and I think 467 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 2: it's going to. 468 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break in the action to tell 469 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: you about bet MGM, the King of sportsbooks. 470 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 4: Sign up today with. 471 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: Bet MGM and use that promo code betting pros when 472 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 1: you do, and your first wager is risk free up 473 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: to one thousand dollars.

And now back 502 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: to the action, all right, talk about two teams going 503 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: in weird places here at the Miami Dolphins eight and 504 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: seven the Patriots seven and eight. The Dolphins, though have 505 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: lost four in a row. They had a game in 506 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: hand this past weekend yesterday, I did not work out. 507 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: They are one and a half point Faid's going into 508 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: New England. Forty three and a half is the number 509 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: plus one h two on the money line. If you 510 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: like the Patriots to win outright, fits, this is a 511 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: really tough one. I mean, here's a stat that this 512 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: will probably make you depress, especially where a Patriots fan. 513 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: The Patriots special teams and defense have scored more combined 514 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: points than the offense this year. 515 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 4: Just chew on that. 516 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: Everybody to tell you where the pets, the Pats offense 517 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: is right now. So fits, when you're looking at this 518 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: game right now, is forty three and a half really 519 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: the number we should be looking at and paying the 520 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: most attention to and looking for maybe the under. 521 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got this projected at forty three. So I'm 522 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 2: a little bit on the under. And a lot of 523 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 2: that is just the way Tua Tongue of Iloa has 524 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 2: played the last four weeks or so. He just hasn't 525 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 2: been as sharp as he was earlier in the year. 526 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 2: And he just gave that game to the Packers on 527 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 2: Christmas Day. That was a gift under the tree for 528 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 2: the Green Bay Packers to take in the second half. 529 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm not if anything, I'm probably going to 530 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: bet the under here, and I might I might even 531 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: be tempted into betting the Patriots as a home against 532 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: a warm weather team, Like if Tua had been clicking 533 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks, different story. I might not 534 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: be as eager. Of course, this line might be more like, 535 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 2: you know, Dolphins by three, But man, I can't take 536 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: the Dolphins as a road favorite right now. 537 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: Well, look, I totally understand where you're coming from. This 538 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: is quite implosion from the Dolphins to Freedman, because you're 539 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: looking at a team that had very high aspirations is 540 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: running high and then everything's just kind of come crashing 541 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: down this last month all over the Miami Dolphins, and 542 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: some of their points have been good, but you know, 543 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: like they should have beat the Packers. Let's be honest, 544 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: Like that's a game at home, you need to beat 545 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: the Packers. 546 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts on this game? 547 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: Are you where Fits is too or New England size 548 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: actually the one it's more appealing. 549 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, as Fits with talking and I'm literally hitting the 550 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 5: button right now. I bet I bet the Patriots at 551 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 5: plus two and a half at FanDuel, which is kind 552 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 5: of the rogue outline number in the market because it 553 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 5: is plus one plus US one and a half at 554 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 5: every other book out there, and I haven't projected at 555 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 5: plus one. And it's not that I think the Patriots 556 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 5: are that good of a team, but they have a 557 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 5: pretty good defense. They are at home, they're they're playing 558 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 5: a warm weather team in conditions that aren't gonna be 559 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 5: like what we saw last week, but aren't going to 560 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 5: be good. And the Dolphins, you know, during the Tua era, 561 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 5: have been especially good at home but not really good 562 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 5: on the road. And you know, they've been good as underdogs, 563 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 5: not really good as favorites and so you're kind of 564 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 5: aligning the two areas where this team hasn't been at 565 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 5: its strongest. 566 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 4: So I am. I am on the Patriots. 567 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 5: I don't feel great about it, but you know at 568 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 5: two and a half at FanDuel or really wherever it is, 569 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 5: that you're still able to get to even one and 570 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 5: a half. 571 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 4: I like that, okay, because I have this at one 572 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 4: all right? 573 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: The New York Giants let one slip through their fingers. 574 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: In Minnesota, they are at home three point favorites against 575 00:25:59,040 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: the Colts. 576 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 4: This feels just about right to me. 577 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: In fact, maybe the Giants be favored by more. To 578 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 1: tell you the truth, we'll see what the Colts have 579 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 1: and sotore for us tonight before we kind of assess 580 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: them completely. Forty and a half is the number plus 581 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: one forty on the money life. You like the Colts, Freeman, 582 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,239 Speaker 1: I'm on the Giants side of this game, and this 583 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: is one where I think the number is actually too 584 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: small for the Giants. I think they should be favored 585 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: by more at home in this situation, especially this time 586 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: of year. 587 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts? 588 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 5: I agree, I have a Giants minus four, and I 589 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 5: mean I will say, like the spot where Daniel Jones 590 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 5: has crushed historically, has been as a road underdog, and 591 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 5: you know, we saw that again this past week. He 592 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 5: hasn't done as well as a home favorite. But you know, 593 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 5: and again we kind of have to wait and see 594 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 5: what we get out of the Colts tonight on Monday 595 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 5: Night Football. But based on the numbers we have right now, 596 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 5: I'm with you. I have Giants minus four. I haven't 597 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 5: bet it yet. I'm a little bit hesitant, but I 598 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 5: probably should given that it's at the key number of 599 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 5: three right now. 600 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 4: Fits. What are your thoughts here about this giant number? 601 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 1: Un agreement too, that it feels like a little too 602 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: too much respect for the Colts. 603 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I bet it at three already. I've got it 604 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 2: projected at four and a half. And again, like, I'm 605 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 2: really worried about how the Colts come out after that 606 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 2: horrible loss at Minnesota and then in this game, they're 607 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 2: going to be coming off They're going to be have 608 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 2: a short week of preparation for it six days. So 609 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 2: like this this line gives them way too much credit, 610 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 2: I think. 611 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: Okay, next one on the slate here we have the 612 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints and Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles six and 613 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: a half point favorites at home. Forty three and a 614 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: half is the number plus two forty five. 615 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 4: For the New Orleans Saints. 616 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: Pat any early value in this one here for an 617 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: Eagles team kind of looking as wounds after a loss 618 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: on Christmas Eve to the Cowboys. 619 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if there is, Joe, because they are 620 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 2: going to have either Gardner Minshew at quarterback or a 621 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 2: less than one hundred percent healthy Jalen Hurts. And the 622 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 2: Saints defense has been pretty good lately. They've held six 623 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 2: straight opponents to twenty points or less, so I think 624 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 2: maybe the same are capable of turning this one into 625 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 2: sort of a mud wrestling match, and you know, the 626 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 2: keeping the total low, keeping it close. 627 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 3: So yeah, like I can't. 628 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 2: Bet on the Eagles is a big favorite right now 629 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 2: against a good defense, and with their quarterback situation, you know, 630 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 2: not as not. 631 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 3: As much of an exclamation point as it has been. 632 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: You know, to your point, Pat, two, if if Jalen 633 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: Hurts does come back and play and they win this game, 634 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: and then they get in there. 635 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 4: If you look at the movement. 636 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: On MVP, it's Patrick Mahomes on fandle right now at 637 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: minus five hundred, and now Jalen Hurts has moved to 638 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: plus eleven hundred all of a sudden. I mean, what 639 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: an incredible MVP caliber moment that would be for Jalen Hurts. 640 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: This is a fascinating opportunity to get back into the 641 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts market for MVP if you missed it, because 642 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: I'm somebody who has mahomes and has locked it in 643 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: early on, and I'm even saying maybe it's time to 644 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: hedge a little bit because that is a fantastic number, 645 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: just pointing that out there. If if he plays Friedman, 646 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on this game? If Erks plays 647 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: or doesn't. 648 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 5: I have it projected right now as if it's going 649 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 5: to be Gardner Minshew. And with that, I'm seeing value 650 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 5: on the Saints, not like a world of value. The 651 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 5: numbers at six and a half in the market, and 652 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 5: I have it at five point two five. I mean, 653 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 5: the number is actually at seven at a few books, 654 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 5: and I don't know if it moves there across the market, 655 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 5: but if it hits seven, I will be betting on 656 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 5: the Saints. 657 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: Okay, let's continue on here to the next game, which 658 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: is the Cleveland Browns and Washington Commanders. It is it 659 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 1: gonna be hide games? It gonna be once? I don't 660 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: know two and a half points, the washingt commander's favorite 661 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: at home. Forty and a half is the number plus 662 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: once sixteen. Excuse me if you like the Cleveland Browns, Friedman, 663 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: anything you like in this game early on that jumps 664 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: out to you. 665 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 4: I like Cleveland in this spot. 666 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 5: I bet it in the look ahead, Fits is shaking 667 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 5: his head and vehemently disagrees. I mean, I don't think 668 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 5: Washington is good. I think it's going to be WinCE 669 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 5: and I don't know, honestly if that's a downgrade or 670 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 5: not from Taylor Heineke. I think it's probably lateral. But 671 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 5: I have this Cleveland should be favored by zero point 672 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 5: two five points, you know, so I bet it in 673 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 5: the look ahead of plus two. I guess I was 674 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 5: wrong and that the numbers out plus two and a 675 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 5: half in the market. Maybe it will continue to move 676 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 5: against me, but it fits. What is your take on this, 677 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 5: because it seems like you're on the other side here. 678 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 3: I am on the other side. I've got this projected. 679 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 2: Is like I think this game should be about to 680 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: pick them and like, I don't know what I'm missing 681 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 2: with Cleveland. I know their past defense has gotten better, 682 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: like it was really bad early in the season, and 683 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 2: then like over the last five weeks or four weeks 684 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 2: going into Week sixteen at least, they've been like second 685 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 2: in DBOA over the pretty previous month in past defense. 686 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 2: But still, like this offense just has not clicked with 687 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson. And I know, granted, conditions were just inhuman 688 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 2: in Cleveland on for a Week sixteen, so I'm not 689 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 2: holding that against him, But the Commander's just lost thirty 690 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 2: seven to twenty to the forty nine ers and that 691 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: was the first time they'd given up more than twenty 692 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 2: one points in a game since Week four. Like, this 693 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 2: defense is legit, and they just got Chase youngback. So 694 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 2: they've got Chase Young and Montese Sweat on the edges 695 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: and Jonathan Allen up front. That is a pain in 696 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: the rear of a defense to contend with. 697 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 3: And like for this offense that hasn't done well. 698 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,959 Speaker 2: I know they're going to try to be run heavy 699 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 2: and you know, take some of the steam out of 700 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 2: that pass rush, but man, I just like I don't 701 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 2: understand and I think you have also been valuing you know, 702 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 2: Cleveland a lot higher than I have for a while now, 703 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 2: and it seems like we're on opposite ends of this. 704 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: But I'm I'm the odd ball based on what the 705 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 2: market has been like, I'm the guy who doesn't think 706 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 2: the Browns are very good and the market is telling 707 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 2: us something else. 708 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 5: No, well, Fitz, you and I have this projected almost 709 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 5: exactly the same. I have this at point twenty five. 710 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,479 Speaker 5: You have it at pick em. The commanders are favored 711 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 5: by two and a half. 712 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 3: Wait, the command I thought the Browns were favored in. 713 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: The commanders are favored all right, our commanders are two 714 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: and a half. 715 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, ship, I didn't realize that my fault. 716 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: I thought, deep it out look at that we got 717 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: all the way here seventeen weeks. 718 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 3: All right, I guess I'm I guess I'm on the Browns. 719 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 3: Then I guess I'm on the brown. 720 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 721 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 5: I think I don't like. I don't like this spot. 722 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 5: I don't actually like being on the Browns here. 723 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 4: No, I don't. 724 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 5: I don't see like why the commanders should be favored 725 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 5: by this much. I guess it's just home field advantage. 726 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 5: That's what the difference is But Joe, I'm fine with 727 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 5: us leaving. 728 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 3: Get this, get me out of this game. 729 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I like standards and practices are gonna be 730 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: all over. Let's go to San Francisco in Las Vegas, everybody, 731 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: let's do that. One brock party continues due at the 732 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: job done. The forty nine Ers are six point favorites 733 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: over the Las Vegas Raiders, as they should be. Forty 734 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: four is the number plus two fifteen on the Vegas side. 735 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: If you like them for the upset fits, I'm gonna 736 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: have to sit with you and Ralphie and put some 737 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: light boy in your mouth here after the rest of 738 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: the show. But in the meantime, tell me about San 739 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: Francisco Vegas. 740 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 4: Here. 741 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: Is this number big enough for the forty nine Ers 742 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: compared to all the mistakes and all the issues of 743 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 1: the Vegas Raiders. 744 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 3: Probably not. 745 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: I've got the forty nine ers projected at seven here 746 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 2: a little over seven. Forty nine Ers have won eight 747 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: straight and their average margin of victory over that stretch 748 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 2: is sixteen point six points. I mean, they haven't lost 749 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 2: going back to October twenty third, Joe, and shout out 750 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 2: to Matthew Friedman for putting me on the under on 751 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 2: the Raiders season long win total of eight and a half, 752 00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: which officially came in on Christmas Eve with the Steelers 753 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 2: defeating the Raiders in that one. I just the forty 754 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 2: nine Ers offense can just hurt you in so many ways, 755 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 2: and the Raiders defense is thirty second, dead last in 756 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 2: Dboa Like hard for me to see them hanging with 757 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 2: the Niners in this one. 758 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: All right, Freevean, what's your take here on the forty 759 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 1: nine Ers. I know they've been riding high, but do 760 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: you think that this number six is going to be 761 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: close at all? 762 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 5: I haven't projected at six and a half, So I'm 763 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 5: I'm right in the neighborhood, and I gotta say I 764 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 5: am just I'm really impressed by what we've seen out 765 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 5: of the forty nine Ers. Ever since the Jimmy Garoppolo 766 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:42,879 Speaker 5: injury I had with Garoppolo, this team power rated at 767 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 5: five point seventy five. That was the highest that they 768 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 5: ever got in the power ratings. And then when Garoppolo 769 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 5: went out, they brought in brock Purty. I thought that 770 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 5: would be a pretty significant downgrade, both because I think 771 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 5: Garoppolo has been underappreciated for what he's done within that offense. 772 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 5: He's not a great quarterback, but he knows that system 773 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 5: really well and fits the system pretty well, operates well 774 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 5: within what they want him to do. With Rock Party, 775 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 5: you know, seventh round rookie quarterback coming in, I thought 776 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,240 Speaker 5: there would be a significant downgrade, and maybe in terms 777 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 5: of like real life ability, there is a downgrade. But 778 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 5: Shanahan has been able to scheme so incredibly well for 779 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 5: Brock Party that there hasn't been a drop off. And 780 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 5: so I've, you know, incrementally each week been bumping the 781 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 5: forty nine ers back up, and now I have them 782 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 5: exactly at five point seventy five. I have them right 783 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 5: where they were when Garoppolo went out, and I'm still 784 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 5: potentially too low on them, Like at this point, I 785 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 5: think they are right there for being the best team 786 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 5: in the NFC. I think their defense is better than 787 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 5: the defense that we see with the Eagles, and you know, 788 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 5: if if Hurts isn't his healthy self, they might have 789 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 5: the better offense. So I am really impressed by San 790 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 5: france Go and I think that this number of six 791 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 5: is just a little too short. 792 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this, I think you're a hundred percent right. 793 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 1: It's been great what brock Perry's been able to do. 794 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: I do think eventually though, in the playoffs, you know 795 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna need your quarterback to do something more in 796 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: one of these big spots, and I just don't know 797 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 1: if he's up to task. So there's a danger here 798 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: of overrating the forty nine ers in the postseason market, 799 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 1: and I'd be very careful about doing everyone very careful 800 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: the New York Jets right now, everybody is saying prayers 801 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: in church in the New York area for Mike White's 802 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: ribs and that scan he's having today. Hopefully they get 803 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: him back. Otherwise, who knows what this game is going 804 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: to be. The Jets are going to travel to Seattle. 805 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: Seattle is one and a half point favorites at home. 806 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: They have played terrible football the last few weeks. Forty 807 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: three is the number. Look, it's all minus money on 808 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: the money line here, minus one to five on the Jets, though. 809 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: J justs defense is really good, Friedman like, they continue to, 810 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: you know, just rely on that defense. But you got 811 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: to get some offense. That's the problem. They clearly don't 812 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: want to go to Flacco here. I don't know if 813 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: you're going to get Zach Wilson. If you do, it's 814 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 1: hard to like the Jets even in this spot. What 815 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 1: are your thoughts here? Do you want to bet this 816 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: now in hopes that Mike White gets cleared or do 817 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: you want to stay away from this and then just 818 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: take it when you have a clearer picture? 819 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 4: Uh? 820 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 5: I I have value on Seattle right now. I don't know. 821 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 5: The Mike White situation is really hard to figure out. 822 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 5: I don't think it's gonna be Zach Wilson. 823 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,720 Speaker 4: Uh. I just I think he's he's done, So I agree. 824 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 5: Uh, you know, maybe it's Flacco, Maybe it's is it Streveler, 825 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 5: you know cfl legend Streveler. 826 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 4: Uh, you know, maybe it's him. Uh. 827 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 5: But you know, with the Mike White situation with the ribs, 828 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 5: like I thought he was going to be able to 829 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 5: play the week after he suffered the injury because he 830 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 5: was able to gut it out in that game. Uh, 831 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 5: but then evidently wasn't cleared, you know, and then hasn't 832 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 5: been clear for two games now. So it's just given 833 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 5: that he's already missed back to back games, I think 834 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 5: there's a decent chance he still misses this game. But 835 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 5: I you know, I have no idea really how to 836 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 5: handicap it because I don't think it's gonna be Zach White. 837 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 5: I just don't know the quarterback situation. But I am 838 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 5: on Seattle. Yeah, I don't think it's gonna be Zach Wilson. 839 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 5: So I am on Seattle in this spot. I haven't 840 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 5: projected it two and a half, but it's it's very tentative. 841 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 4: All right, Fitz, what are your thoughts here on this one? 842 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: Because I if it is Mike White, I really like 843 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: the Jets in this spot. I'm gonna be honest with you, 844 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: but what do you think here? 845 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 3: I have a little value on Seattle too, kind of 846 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 3: thinking that it won't be Mike White. 847 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 2: And I guess one concern that I had had with 848 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 2: the Seahawks coming into this one was that in the 849 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 2: previous month or so, their running game had stopped working 850 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 2: and their run defense had gone just completely belly up. 851 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 2: Like they've been giving up I think over two hundred 852 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 2: rushing yards a game over the last month, and like 853 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 2: they had kind of run into the mud with their 854 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 2: running game and Kenneth Walker not being affected. But then 855 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 2: Walker runs for one hundred yards against the Chiefs, and 856 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 2: you know they didn't get trampled by the Chiefs running game, 857 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 2: So you know, maybe they're not the running game on 858 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 2: both sides of the ball. Not the weakness I was 859 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: worried about going into Week sixteen. On the other hand, like, 860 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 2: the one thing that I want to bet here is 861 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 2: the total. I don't understand why it's so high. We've 862 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 2: seen eight of the last ten Jets games play under 863 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,359 Speaker 2: forty points. I mean, their defense is legit, even though 864 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 2: it didn't look very good against the Jaguars last week. 865 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 2: But they'll have had extra prep time. I think they're 866 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 2: going to come out breathing fire after kind of getting 867 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 2: humiliated by the Jags a bit in Week sixteen. And 868 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 2: you know, Seattle's offense is kind of at low EBB 869 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 2: right now. 870 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 3: So I like the under here a lot. 871 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: All right, The Minnesota Vikings the team of destiny could be. 872 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: They are now twelve and three. I know Fitz does 873 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: not like to hear that for you, so we'll keep 874 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: this one. Sure, green Bay Packers go to seven and eight. 875 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: They are three point favorites in this game in Green Bay. 876 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 4: Now, look, I get it. 877 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: I understand, Elements, I said, but what more do do 878 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: the Vikings have to do to prove the heart of 879 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: this team, to prove how amazing Justin Jefferson is and 880 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 1: what an incredible talent he is, Kirk Cousins, Can we 881 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: give him a little bit more credit can be? 882 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 4: I mean, I understand it's in the. 883 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: Elements's outdoors blah blah blah, all this stuff. Every time 884 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: I feel like we come here every week the Minnesota 885 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 1: Vikings will get any respect and they keep turning around 886 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,240 Speaker 1: to winning football games. 887 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 4: Fits. 888 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:26,879 Speaker 1: I know it's the Packers. I know they come off 889 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: a win here, they're feeling good about them. But still 890 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings three point underdogs. I'm taking the Vikings here. 891 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, make no mistake show the Vikings are 892 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 2: not as good as their record, and they're not even 893 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 2: close to as good as their record. 894 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: It's just matter though, sometimes, like sometimes don't we have 895 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: this thing where teams just have that weird thing going 896 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 1: Everything just breaks their way. I mean the forty nine 897 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: ers did the year they went to the Super Bowl, right, 898 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: I mean, they weren't the best team that you were 899 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: at Garoppolo, everything bounced their way. He Mostard has a 900 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: huge playoff game and nowhere next thing you know, they're 901 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,439 Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. It feels like the Vikings could 902 00:40:58,480 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 1: just be that team this year. 903 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 2: So what you're saying, Joe, and Friedman's a Seinfeld fan, 904 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 2: You're saying, they've got the Kovorka, you know, on the surface, 905 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 2: on the surface, it's ugly, but like there's just. 906 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,399 Speaker 1: The Uh, Aaron Rodgers better show up wearing a whole 907 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 1: thing of garlic. 908 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 4: That's all I'm saying. 909 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the Packers, like I don't even have 910 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 2: a good handle on them as a Packers fan, Like 911 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 2: they can look terrible and great within the span of 912 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 2: the same game. 913 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: Uh. 914 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 2: But to some extent, Joe, I see what you're saying 915 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 2: to have the Vikings be outside the framework of a 916 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 2: field goal differential in this one. Like, I do want 917 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 2: to bet the Vikings because, like they're going to stay 918 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 2: in this game, They're probably going to pull it out 919 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 2: at the end. You know, I think the Packers might 920 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 2: actually be the better team, but I don't want to 921 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 2: bet them covering three and a half against a team 922 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 2: that has the Koborka. 923 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the Kovorka here. Friedman you 924 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: know what I know. Sometimes you just can't explain certain things. 925 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: The Vikingsworth team historically lost every close game. Now the 926 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:07,879 Speaker 1: team that wins every close game. 927 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 4: And when that. 928 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,759 Speaker 1: Happens, you start to believe that anytime you get down 929 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: you're going to win. 930 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 4: I e. 931 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: Two weeks ago, when you're down by thirty at halftime 932 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: and you come back and win, at a certain point, 933 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: you feel invincible. And that is a very dangerous thing, 934 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: especially when now, after doing this two weeks in a row, 935 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: you're underdogs in your division rival spot on the road. 936 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: What do you think for Evan? 937 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, this number was three and a half last night 938 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 5: when it reopened, and it's been bet to three, and 939 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 5: so I'm a little bit upset with myself for not 940 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 5: betting it then. But I haven't protected two point seventy five. 941 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 5: And to Fitz's point about the Packers might actually be 942 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 5: the better team, this might feel blasphemous just based on 943 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 5: what we've seen out of their records and based on 944 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 5: how disappointing the Packers have been this year, but I 945 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 5: actually do have the Packers power rated at point twenty 946 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 5: five points better than the Vikings on a neutral field, 947 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 5: and Lambeau is definitely not a neutral field like that 948 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 5: is a. 949 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 4: Tough place to play. 950 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 5: Now, home field advantage doesn't mean as much in division, 951 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 5: both because a team normally doesn't have to travel as 952 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 5: far and because they are more familiar with that field 953 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 5: than they are a typical road game. So the home 954 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 5: field advantage doesn't mean as much for the Packers here, 955 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 5: but it's still a pretty significant home field advantage. 956 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: Guys, I talent you team of Destiny Minnesota Vikings. All right, 957 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: the Battle of Los Angeles as if anybody really cares, 958 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. The Los Angeles Rams five and ten 959 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,720 Speaker 1: coming off a huge victory over the Denver bron Goes. 960 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: They are seven point underdogs against the Chargers. They share 961 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: this building. It's all the same minus seven here on 962 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 1: the Chargers side of this game. Forty and a half 963 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: is the over runner plus two sixty five if you 964 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: like the Rams. Look, I mean, I don't know what 965 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,760 Speaker 1: to make of this game. To be honest with you, Preven, 966 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 1: this one seems like just pure chaos to me because 967 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,879 Speaker 1: we don't know what Charger team going to show up tonight, 968 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 1: and sometimes whatever Charger team shows up doesn't necessarily mean 969 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: that's the same one that shows up week to week. 970 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: So what are your thoughts here on this Battle of 971 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. 972 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 5: So this line in the look ahead market, I believe 973 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 5: was eight and a half and it moved to eight, 974 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 5: and now it's seven and a half. And you know, 975 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 5: based on what we see out of the Chargers tonight, 976 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 5: you know, maybe this gets to seven. Like the market 977 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 5: has been really bullish on the Rams for the past 978 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 5: few weeks, and I think maybe we continue to see that. 979 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 4: That said, like I am showing value on the chargers. 980 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 5: I have this at minus eight and a half, but 981 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 5: I am I'm definitely not betting it right now. I 982 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 5: feel like I don't have a good read on the Rams, 983 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 5: and maybe I don't have a good read on the 984 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 5: Chargers either, because they can they can be a little 985 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 5: bit hit or miss. 986 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 1: Okay, how about your thoughts here on La versus La. 987 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 2: When I was doing the projection for this one, I 988 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: couldn't find a line for it and wasn't looking hard enough. Probably, 989 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 2: but I had just watched the Rams, uh totally butcher 990 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:09,759 Speaker 2: the the Broncos, and I peg this at Chargers by 991 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 2: four and a half. And maybe I'm giving the Rams 992 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 2: way too much credit because they looked fantastic. But I 993 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe something about the Baker Mayfield Sean McVay 994 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 2: pairing just works, you know, like maybe maybe this isn't 995 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 2: as sickly an offense as it's looked for so much 996 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 2: of this season, And could it be legitimate now? I mean, 997 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,879 Speaker 2: cam Akers looked good yesterday. The offensive line looked the best. 998 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,399 Speaker 1: It's loose against against a really good Denver defense too, 999 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: Like it's it's infuriating, like it's so bizarre, and that's 1000 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,280 Speaker 1: why I just can't hear this game. 1001 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 5: This line, sorry dinner, and so yeah, this line is 1002 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 5: now it's seven, you know, like it was seven and 1003 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 5: a half last night, it's seven this morning. I think 1004 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 5: this moves below seven, you know, honestly, I would be waiting. 1005 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 5: I would be waiting for it to move below seven, 1006 00:45:58,080 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 5: just wait for it to continue to move towards the 1007 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 5: R and then I would bet on the Chargers and 1008 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 5: like par assessment. 1009 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Chargers are really good when they're hitting 1010 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 2: on all cylinders, but we haven't seen them hit on 1011 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 2: all cylinders very often this season. And there's like really 1012 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 2: no home field advantage here. 1013 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 3: I mean, it's. 1014 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:18,879 Speaker 2: The they're a mutually shared home stadium, and yes, it's 1015 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 2: going to be the Chargers season ticket holders. But you know, 1016 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 2: I don't think the Chargers are known for their rabid 1017 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 2: fan base. 1018 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 4: Fits. 1019 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 5: One thing that's interesting is that there won't be the 1020 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 5: typical home disadvantage that they have either, because it's not as. 1021 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 3: If you with other fans exactly. 1022 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yes, no one will be rooting for anyone 1023 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: in this game. 1024 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:40,280 Speaker 4: It'll be awesome. 1025 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 1: Everyone's just going to be taking selfies of themselves and 1026 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 1: posting them on Instagram. Let's go to the Baltimore Ravens 1027 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: at home. They are ten and five taking on the 1028 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers at seven and eight. Baltimore three and a 1029 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,879 Speaker 1: half point favorites at home feels about right. Thirty six 1030 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: and a half is number plus one sixty five. You 1031 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 1: like Pittsburgh for the upset here? 1032 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 4: Fits? Do you like Pittsburgh for the upset here? 1033 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: Or you think Baltimore just wins this one and covers 1034 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:03,240 Speaker 1: the three and a half. 1035 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 3: I don't like Pittsburgh for the upset. 1036 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 2: I think this line doesn't give enough heed to the 1037 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:13,719 Speaker 2: possibility of Lamar Jackson maybe coming back this week, like 1038 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,879 Speaker 2: I I'm gonna I have not hit this yet because 1039 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 2: I want to read up on the Lamar Jackson status 1040 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 2: and see if there's any see what some of the 1041 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:23,479 Speaker 2: medical people have to say. 1042 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:28,840 Speaker 3: But I just feel like the pot odds maybe. 1043 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,319 Speaker 2: Suggest a bet for the Ravens on this one, because 1044 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,839 Speaker 2: I don't think the line accounts for that possibility enough 1045 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 2: and what Lamar Jackson would do to move the line 1046 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 2: if he is in fact back in this one. Like 1047 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 2: I just I think the pot odds are right for 1048 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 2: about on the Ravens here if anything but. 1049 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 3: He does, if he doesn't come back, it's going to 1050 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 3: be a rock fight. 1051 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 4: Well that's the thing. It's a rock fight. 1052 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 1: Anything can happen here, especially when these two teams lock 1053 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: up late in the year. For even your thoughts here, 1054 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: is this a dangerous game here for Baltimore at the 1055 00:47:59,239 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 1: worst time of year? 1056 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm I'm interested in the Steelers in this spot. 1057 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 5: This number was six in the look ahead market on Thursday. 1058 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 5: It opened at four last night, and it's been bet 1059 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 5: down to three and a half. Like this number is 1060 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:15,720 Speaker 5: moving towards the Steelers. I have the projection at four 1061 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 5: point twenty five. Uh, and so the the more it 1062 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 5: moves towards the UH towards the Steelers, the more interested 1063 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 5: at that point I will become in the Ravens. But 1064 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 5: you know, at this current market, I think it's about 1065 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 5: where it should be. If it hits the key number three, 1066 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 5: then I think it will have gone too far. 1067 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 1: Okay, last one here, Monday night football. 1068 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 4: This should be a great one. The first two times 1069 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 4: I think we skipped a game. I think there's panther. 1070 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,320 Speaker 1: I apologies, how did that happen? 1071 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 4: Oh? 1072 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: Well, we can't skip that one because the Buccaneers are 1073 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: super exciting, they're great football. 1074 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 5: That's one we would want to skip. But that's an 1075 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 5: interesting game. 1076 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 1: All right, Well, my apologies everybody. 1077 00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:58,319 Speaker 4: We did skip a game here. 1078 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: Again, Maybe it was Freudi and maybe I just didn't 1079 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: want to talk about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers anymore. The 1080 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 1: Bucks are five and a half point favorites. See, I 1081 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 1: was all excited to talk about Cincinnati Buffalo. Now I 1082 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: gotta wait. Five and a half point favorites the Tampa 1083 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. Forty one is the number plus two hundred 1084 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 1: on the Carolina Panthers side. Carolina is in this thing, folks, 1085 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: if you could believe it. 1086 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 4: Sam darnold. 1087 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: They were running the football all over the place on 1088 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 1: a team that you hadn't previously been able to run 1089 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 1: the football on. 1090 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 4: So scrap that. 1091 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,439 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the Bucks looked completely just like crap. 1092 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,400 Speaker 4: Let's be honest. They looked like crap last night. 1093 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: And every highlight you watch, everything was just not going 1094 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 1: well for them. Friedman usain't jud drew it back to 1095 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: this game. What is it you see in this one 1096 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: that's got you so interested? 1097 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 4: Okay? 1098 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 5: In the look ahead market, this was seven last night, 1099 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 5: it was six and a half. I'm looking at the 1100 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:47,960 Speaker 5: betting pros paid right now and it is four or 1101 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,919 Speaker 5: four and a half, and this number should be three. 1102 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,880 Speaker 4: Uh, Carolina has a good guess. 1103 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 1: One refresh again because I just refreshed again. 1104 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 4: It is three. It's three now. Wow, it's just refreshed. Good. 1105 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 1: You see what I'm seeing now. I literally just refreshed 1106 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,439 Speaker 1: it since the beginning of the show we started. It's 1107 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: now three on the expert consensus line. 1108 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. Uh, it's it's not a surprise. 1109 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 5: Yeah wowow wow yeah three three and a half a yeah, 1110 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 5: three yeah three at bet MGM three and a half 1111 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,280 Speaker 5: at Draft Beings FanDuel three at Caesar's. 1112 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's where this line should be. Uh. 1113 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 5: The idea, you know in the look ahead market four 1114 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,280 Speaker 5: days ago that at home the Buccaneers should be favored 1115 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 5: by a touchdown, which is absolutely ludicrous. Like this was, 1116 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:36,360 Speaker 5: especially at this point in the year, you tend not 1117 00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:40,320 Speaker 5: to see in terms of like projections versus the actual 1118 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,280 Speaker 5: spread that is posted. You tend not to see discrepancies 1119 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 5: that big where I had to go back and kind 1120 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 5: of double check just to make sure that there wasn't 1121 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 5: something wrong in my projections. And you know, I maybe 1122 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 5: it was just, hey, I'm giving too much credit to 1123 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 5: the Panthers, but the Panthers looked much better than I 1124 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 5: thought they were, and I had the Panthers like at 1125 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 5: three point underdogs will I really wasn't even giving the 1126 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:09,239 Speaker 5: Panthers all that much credit, And so I think the 1127 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 5: Panthers are definitely the side to be betting here. 1128 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 4: Even with this number. 1129 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 5: At three, I think it's fine value at three and 1130 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 5: a half, I'm still leaning towards the Panthers. 1131 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: I'm actually glad now we brought this game back because 1132 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 1: of that wacky moment we just had fits. What do 1133 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: you think about these two teams. Who'd have thought we'd 1134 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: be talking about the Carolina Panthers challenging the Tampa Bay 1135 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: Buccaneers in Week seventeen. 1136 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I was ready to slam the Panthers 1137 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 2: when it looked like this game was going to be 1138 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,840 Speaker 2: five or five and a half or whatever. But with 1139 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 2: the line plummeting, I'm seeing a little bit less value. 1140 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 2: But I certainly would not be betting the Buccaneers in 1141 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 2: this one. Like the Panthers has been a different team 1142 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 2: since they fired Matt Ruhle. And I mean Tom Brady 1143 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 2: looks like he's toast. 1144 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 3: He really does. 1145 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 2: Last night against the Cardinals, who I think were a 1146 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 2: bottom five team in DVO against the pass, and Brady 1147 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:06,799 Speaker 2: averaged five point nine yards per attempt, one touchdown, two interceptions. 1148 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 3: Like, he just does not look good in this offense. 1149 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 2: Is you know Mike Evans, You're seeing the frustration on 1150 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 2: his face now throughout the game. 1151 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I like the Panthers here. 1152 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 2: I might be looking at a money line opportunity. 1153 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,319 Speaker 1: Oh you speak in my language. There it's plus one 1154 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 1: fifty four. I thought it would be more. I probably 1155 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 1: was higher, but wow, crazy times all. 1156 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 5: Right, I gotta say here just just to follow up 1157 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 5: on Fitz's point. Okay, the defense for the Buccaneers, that 1158 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 5: has been a strong point historically, but it is so 1159 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 5: much not a strong point this year. They're missing on 1160 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 5: that defensive line, shackbart on the edge, Carl Massive has 1161 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 5: been injured, Vita Veya, who's you know, one of their 1162 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 5: main run stoppers they've been He's been injured. And so 1163 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 5: it's a situation where the Panthers, even though they're not 1164 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,959 Speaker 5: that great on offense, I think they're actually pretty bad 1165 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 5: on offense, Like they want to run the ball, especially 1166 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:01,280 Speaker 5: we seem Donald the quarterback. 1167 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,320 Speaker 4: But I think they will be able. 1168 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 5: To run it against a Buccaneers team that just does 1169 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,400 Speaker 5: not have the run stopping strength that it had in 1170 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 5: previous years because of how decimated it is on the 1171 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:12,240 Speaker 5: defensive line. 1172 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: Okay, now we can get to the fun game. Let's 1173 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: leave on a high note, everybody. Another Seinfeld reference for you. 1174 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,520 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen the Buffalo Bills. First 1175 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 1: time these two are ever going to play against each other. 1176 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 1: This is gonna be fun. It's on primetime Monday night. 1177 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 1: Let's go eleven and four Bengals, twelve and three Buffalo Bills. 1178 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: The Bills are one point road favorites. Practically a pick them, 1179 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: you're getting even money on the Cincinnati Bengals. Forty nine 1180 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 1: and a half is the number here, Fitz. Let's start 1181 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 1: with you on this one. What's your take on this game? 1182 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 1: Besides wanting to watch it? 1183 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 2: I love that we get this on Monday, and you know, 1184 00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 2: with Week seventeen being the championship week in fantasy football 1185 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 2: and having a game that's got so many fantasy contributors 1186 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:52,240 Speaker 2: going in and it's. 1187 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:52,919 Speaker 3: Gonna be a fun one. 1188 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,840 Speaker 2: I don't think the Bengals should be a home dog 1189 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 2: to anyone. I mean they've won seven straight and granted 1190 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 2: they have not exactly run people down and left tire 1191 00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 2: tracks on their back the way the forty nine ers have, 1192 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,439 Speaker 2: But I mean this has just been a really good team. 1193 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 2: They get it done week after week after week, and 1194 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 2: you know, like not that I'm saying the Bills, uh, 1195 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: don't deserve the sort of credit they're getting, but the 1196 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:18,879 Speaker 2: Bengals aren't getting enough. 1197 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 3: So I lean Bengals here. 1198 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: Well, put, they've been on a streak here, What do 1199 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 1: you think, Friedman? I know they've had some injuries too, 1200 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 1: but they've been very strong in some of these victories 1201 00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,959 Speaker 1: where you know, tough circumstances, they still come out on top. 1202 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,800 Speaker 1: The Bengals are tough, and the Bills, let's be honest, 1203 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: they've let a lot of teams hang in. Is that 1204 00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: a dangerous thing to do with Joe. 1205 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:41,000 Speaker 4: Burrow, Yeah, I'm I'm very much with fits here. 1206 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 5: I do have the Bills as the slightest of favorites, 1207 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 5: favored by zero point two five points in this game, 1208 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 5: but so very much, very much to pick them here. 1209 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 5: And I did bet in the look ahead market on 1210 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:56,360 Speaker 5: the Bengals when this number was plus two and a half. 1211 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 5: It's continued to move towards them. I think it's still 1212 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 5: at plus one one and a half at some books 1213 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,879 Speaker 5: out there, Caesars, for instance, And so I would still 1214 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 5: be betting that on the Bengals. One thing I do 1215 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 5: want to say, though, Joe, you mentioned the the MVP market. 1216 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:17,360 Speaker 5: Mahomes obviously is awesome. I think he deserves to be 1217 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 5: the front runner, but I think I don't know Josh Allen. 1218 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 5: Josh Allen is an intriguing spot here. He's twenty to 1219 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 5: one at points bet and Josh Allen was. 1220 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 1: Because he's ten to one at Fandel. What a vast 1221 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: difference that is, because I look at. 1222 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 4: A fandle right now. 1223 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, so twenty to one points bet And I got 1224 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 5: to say, like, the case for Josh Allen, I think 1225 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 5: is not that hard to make. The Bills are the 1226 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 5: number one seed right now in the AFC, which is 1227 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 5: clearly the superior of the two conferences, and the NFC. 1228 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,360 Speaker 5: Jalen Hurts has been knocked out. So it's not to 1229 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 5: say like he can't win it, but you know, his 1230 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 5: odds of winning it have drastically dropped. And he was 1231 00:55:56,200 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 5: the front runner opening the year. He beat Patrick Mahomes 1232 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 5: head to head and has a strong performance in that game. 1233 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 5: And if he beats if the Bills beat the Bengals 1234 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 5: this upcoming week on Monday Night Football and he has 1235 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 5: a good performance. 1236 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 4: And Jalen Hurts doesn't play. 1237 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, and Jalen Hurts doesn't play like he will have 1238 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 5: beat the two other teams that are really there in 1239 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 5: the running, and you know, like what would have changed. 1240 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,439 Speaker 4: Really, Like, Okay, that's a great point. 1241 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 5: Mahomes is not a good season, but like Allen has 1242 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 5: had a kind of Allen esque season. Yeah, he's thrown interceptions, 1243 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 5: but he was good enough to get his team to 1244 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 5: the number one seed. And I know, like fantasy points 1245 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 5: don't matter when people are thinking about MVP, but like 1246 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 5: he's still done a lot on the ground. He's still 1247 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 5: had like a pretty all encompassing Josh Allen type of season. 1248 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 5: I think that there would be a chance of him. 1249 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 5: I don't think he would actually win the I don't 1250 00:56:57,560 --> 00:56:59,960 Speaker 5: think he would win the MVP, but I'm pretty sure 1251 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,280 Speaker 5: odds would be much better than twenty to one. 1252 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 1: Well six to one right now is where Joe Burrow 1253 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: is too. So if Joe Burrow should win this game, 1254 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, I think the calculus might 1255 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 1: change again. Just saying like, right now, Mahomes is the 1256 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 1: favorite again, but just two weeks ago it was Jalen 1257 00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 1: Hurts was the prohibitive favorite. This market is still moving 1258 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: very much in that market for MVP. All right, that'll 1259 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 1: do it for us.
