00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to Sharper Square, presented by hard Rock Bat. We

2
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,319
Speaker 1: are part of the Volume podcast Network. This is the

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: betting show that makes the squares sharper and makes the

4
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: wise guys pay attention.

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 2: I am Chadmllman.

6
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 1: I am joined by my co host, my bff, my companion,

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: my compadre, professional better signment hunter Ellos only.

8
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 3: Man, Chad. I made the terrible decision. I went to

9
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: the Phillies game last night. Even the last Phillies game

10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 3: I went to was the no hitter against Houston in

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 3: the World Series. I said I would never go again,

12
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 3: got offered to go, and I had to produce O Tani,

13
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 3: which I always you know, in my mind, the greatest

14
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: baseball player ever. I was like, I gotta go. Feeling good,

15
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 3: three enough, Rob Thompson playoff. Baseball is decided by these managers.

16
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 3: Every move the man made was wrong. Phillies lose five

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 3: to three. Honestly, almost as bad as a no hitter

18
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 3: walking out of the stadium, and I as bad as

19
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 3: my life, fizz. I feel thankful I'm not a Phillies

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: Penn State fan, because that is truly the worst life

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: you could have yesterday.

22
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: That is a terrible parlay to have lost yesterday. I'm

23
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: whispering a little bit when I announce you because I'm

24
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: doing a road game. I'm in College Park, Maryland. We

25
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: had parents weekend for my son, who's a freshman. We

26
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: walked out of the Maryland game yesterday as the fourth

27
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: quarter was starting and they were up twenty to nothing.

28
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: It's a fifteen minute walk from the stadium to our

29
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: hotel and Maryland had given up a three touchdown lead

30
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: in the biggest game they've had in a generation, ended

31
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: up losing twenty four to twenty. They were losing by

32
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: the time we got back to our hotel. We're still

33
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: trying to figure out what happened. So we both had

34
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: our hearts broken yesterday. But guess what we do get

35
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: to bring good news to all the Sharp or Square

36
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: listeners viewers. Huge announcement. As many of you know, the

37
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: past couple years, in the previous iteration of the show,

38
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: we've run a totally free to play NFL Pick Them contest.

39
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: We've get away given away big, big prizes. Because we

40
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: had to launch Sharper Square so quickly before Week one,

41
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: we ran out of time before we could launch this contest.

42
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: Thanks to our magnificent benefactors at hard Rock Bet, the

43
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: brilliant people at hard Rock Bet, we can finally announce

44
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: that a free, free to play Sharper Square NFL Pick

45
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: Them contest will be launching in a few weeks.

46
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: Get excited, folks. We can't give out the exact date.

47
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: There's still some logistics to work out that we want

48
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 1: to nail down before we give out the exact date.

49
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 2: But don't worry.

50
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: Thanks to everybody for your patients. Stay tuned, Simon. This

51
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: is the strip down in the room eves dropping version

52
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: of Sharper Square, in which you and I will try

53
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: to nail down our final five picks. Now that we've

54
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: got injuries, we've got latest line moves.

55
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: Are you ready, my brother?

56
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 3: All right?

57
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: These are the games that we zered in on the

58
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: other day. Reminder to everybody we loved the Rams on

59
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: Thursday night.

60
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: This is already a loss for us.

61
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: We're moving on. Honestly, I'd play it again. I played

62
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: again every time home team short week against a team

63
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: with the backup QB, two backup wide receivers missing its

64
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: defensive end, got a good number that moved in our direction.

65
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: We're not changing that decision.

66
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: Things happened. I think they had what was it two fumbles.

67
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 3: Their defense just played terrible, And you know, that's why

68
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 3: we love what we do. It's it's all, at the

69
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: end of the day, madness and randomness and uh yeah,

70
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: the biggest thing to come out of that game. Obviously

71
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: it hurts us in the contest, whereas people unfortunately like you,

72
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: Chad took the RAMS and Survivor. That is just that's

73
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 3: why Survivor's so tough. It's like that was such they

74
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 3: had to lose that way in that game in a

75
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 3: million different ways for you to lose that Survivor bed

76
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, awful way to start our week. Zho and one.

77
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: I feel like an adult because at halftime of that game,

78
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, I got a big day tomorrow.

79
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: I got to get up early. I'm just going to bed.

80
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: I save myself three hours of misery by going to

81
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: bed at halftime of that game.

82
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 2: And I woke up.

83
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 1: So we lost in overtime, and I'm like, well, I'm

84
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: so glad I wasn't watching that another game. It's going

85
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: to be controversial. Houston Texans right now are one and

86
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: a half point favorites over the Baltimore Ravens in the

87
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: contest we currently play. This won't be true when we

88
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: have the contest for Sharper Square. In the contest we

89
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: currently play that line locked at three and a half.

90
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: We can only play the lines as they're given to us.

91
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 2: Those are the rules.

92
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: Obviously, we're going to take Houston at plus three and

93
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: a half given the way the lines have moved over

94
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: the course of the week with Lamar Jackson, and this

95
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: was a move that you predicted on Tuesday. As Simon says,

96
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: do we still put it in the contest?

97
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 3: Yep, locking in that's the quick one three and a half.

98
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 3: Gotta take it for Houston.

99
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: New York Giants at New Orleans Saints minus one and

100
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: a half for the Saints right now. Look, you mentioned

101
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: on Thursday this is gonna be one of your biggest bets.

102
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: I went against all my beliefs, partially because.

103
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 2: Of what you said.

104
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: Even though the Saints opened it plus two and they

105
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: are now one and a half. I went against all

106
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: my beliefs. I've bet on the Saints as one and

107
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: a half point favorites. We've seen this comeback to bite

108
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: us with the lime flip even a couple times this year.

109
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: We saw it with the Ravens game opening against the Bills.

110
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: We saw it with the Raiders game against the Bears.

111
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: We had plus one and a half in that one,

112
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: so we got lucky. But man, this is a dangerous,

113
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: dangerous catch a falling knife scenario.

114
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, still on it. But I'm like you, I'm leaking

115
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 3: cough and says the week goes along because it is

116
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 3: the Saints, and uh, it's it's a little scary. But

117
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: the only thing I could take out of it that

118
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 3: makes you feel a little better is the Sharper books

119
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 3: are still at minus two and a half on the

120
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 3: Saints team, so at least we know the professional money

121
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 3: is on our side. But I'm getting a little worried

122
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 3: it's become I thought it would be more love for

123
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 3: this giant side, and most guys I've talked to just

124
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 3: seem like they're on on the Saints with us. So

125
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 3: this this might be the fifth or sixth one right now?

126
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: Wait, why are you leaking confidence? If everyone's with us?

127
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: You don't want you don't want that, you don't want

128
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 3: to be that. I want to at least here one

129
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 3: one or two other guys breaking me breaking it down

130
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 3: by the right side is the Giants. Everyone has the

131
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 3: same thought process as us, though You're you're fading a

132
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: rookie QB after a huge emotional win at home against

133
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 3: an incredibly desperate Saints team. So again, I'm still on

134
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 3: the Saint time you just said it, I'm heavily invested

135
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 3: into it. Will it be one of our four today?

136
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

137
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: Well, that's what it's going to come down here. Like

138
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: I we got a couple of games in here that

139
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: I think are very much on the edge, and I

140
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: want to be very thoughtful about this. So I'm going

141
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: to have I have a comment at the end based

142
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: on something you said on Thursday that we'll get to

143
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: Dallas at the New York Jets. Jets are currently one

144
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: and a half.

145
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,119
Speaker 2: This was our brass balls bet of the week.

146
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: I think it takes a true set of brass balls

147
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: that can sustain a maximum kick to the groin because

148
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: we will suffer for sixty minutes watching this game. We

149
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: like the matchups, we like the situation. We like the

150
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: Jets offense against this miserable Cowboys defense. We like the

151
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: spot for the Jets looking bad in prime time versus

152
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: a Dallas team that looked magnificent in a tie in

153
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: prime time. We got the value. If you were listening

154
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: during the week, you were able to get the Jets

155
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: at a much much better number. I think in the contest,

156
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: the Jets are at plus two and a half.

157
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 3: I love it, but it's the same exact thing as

158
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 3: the Saints. Every prof talked to is right there with us,

159
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 3: But luckily for us, every public guy I've talked to

160
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: is on the Cowboys. So yeah, this is pros versus

161
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 3: Joe's good number, good spot. I already know a thousand

162
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 3: different ways we're gonna lose this bet. Yeah, but we're

163
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 3: getting a great number. Gotta lean to it. This is

164
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 3: what we do plus two and a half. I'm glad

165
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: that you know we talked. There's like three games we

166
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 3: debated for our brass Balls bet, and I'm happy we

167
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: settle on this one because it obviously was the best

168
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 3: number this week that we gave out. It's key number

169
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 3: of two and a half. The pros have coming incredibly

170
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 3: heavy on it. I mean even now, there's some books

171
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 3: popping plus one on this Jet side. So even if

172
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 3: you missed the two and a half, you want to

173
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 3: join us. I don't hate the plus one and a half,

174
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: but I would not take the plus one.

175
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's this line has completely moved to one and

176
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: a half in one, so I'm with you. I would

177
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: still take the Jets one and a half. So we're

178
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: not just giving away a bad line here. Jets feel

179
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: like they're going to be in for us, to be honest,

180
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: Kansas City, at the Jacksonville Jaguars mostly three and a half.

181
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: At hard Rockets three, it's still three and a half

182
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: everywhere else.

183
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: This was Chad Loves.

184
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: You were very reluctantly on this train, only after hearing

185
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: what the wise guys had said in sharp calls, and

186
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: then admittedly looking a bit more at the Jacksonville defense

187
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: and wondering if you've gotten too biased on the Chiefs.

188
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 3: But but.

189
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: We do not have to like this, don't You don't

190
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: like this as one of our five. I don't think

191
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: it will only be here because you want to blame

192
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: me for the entertainment value, which I am all for.

193
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: Here's what I would say to my comment earlier the

194
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 1: other day, You're like, you got a nut up. We

195
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: got to put this in the contest. Here's my take

196
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: on the contest. The only pride I get from the

197
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: contest it's finishing with a winning week. I don't care

198
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: if it's a pick you made that I was against.

199
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's a pick I made that

200
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: you were against. I just want to finish with a

201
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: winning week. So if we don't like this as much

202
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: as we like the other two picks that we're going

203
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: to talk about, including our Rock and her Place hard

204
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: Rock bet of the Week, I could care less.

205
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 2: If we put it in.

206
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 3: We should care. It's your bet, so it to me

207
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 3: you care.

208
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 2: I don't care.

209
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 3: Well, I already had it in the contest because to me,

210
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 3: it's it's a game that if you believe in you

211
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 3: should take a stand on. It's your favorite bet of

212
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 3: the week. You gave it on Tuesday. I don't have

213
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 3: a position on it, but I told you the smart

214
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 3: money agrees with you, and you're getting a good number.

215
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 3: It's three and a half in the contest. So, like

216
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 3: I said, if you believe in it, you love it,

217
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 3: I'm happy to put it in because I think it's

218
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 3: a good number. And I'm already down oh one this

219
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 3: week on that RAMS one, so I'll offer it to

220
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 3: you if you want it in, it can get in.

221
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: No problem is this is not how we're doing it.

222
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: It's not a out pride. It's about getting to a

223
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: winning number.

224
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 3: And right now, winners, give me a winner. If this

225
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 3: is your winner of the week, give it to me.

226
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 2: If you're already of it, We're already won one.

227
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: We got to win three or four games over the

228
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: next two days, so we can only afford to lose

229
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: one more game.

230
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: We've got two more games. I want to discuss it.

231
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 2: Think that way, well, listen, well, we have to think

232
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: that way, because that's the reality. We have to be Intelli.

233

Speaker 3: It's your two micro right now. You're you're your two micro.

234
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 3: You're you're not a truth sports betters, do not think

235
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 3: the way you're talking right now. I'll be honest with you.

236
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,040

276
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: Denver at Philadelphia, this numbers move in in the direction

277
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: that we would want it to. It's at four and

278
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: a half. In most places you can get it at four. Simon,

279
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: this is our rock and a hard place. Hard rock

280
00:13:53,720 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: better the week at a lot. We're both on the Broncos.

281
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,719
Speaker 1: The pros are on the Broncos. It's a matchup of

282
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: a relatively unlucky team in the Broncos versus what has

283
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: been a very lucky team in the Eagles. Do we

284
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: put this in instead of the Saints? Do we put

285
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: this in instead of the Jags?

286
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 3: I could get there putting this over the Saints. It's

287
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 3: another game though, That's like, I don't get why I

288
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 3: went back up to four and a half. It went

289
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: down to three and a half at every book. Yeah,

290
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: I know, and it's been bumped up to four four

291
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 3: and a half at every other book. So it's another

292
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 3: game where I'm a little scared that there's a blind

293
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 3: spot here. And you know, looking at the five I

294
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 3: put in, this was one of the original five I

295
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: did put in. So like again, I'm it's tough for

296
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 3: me to move off certain games. This one I'm trying

297
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 3: to be open to moving off of because I like

298
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 3: it too much. Where once again, everyone knows there's something

299
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 3: wrong with this Eagles team. This is a good matchup

300
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 3: for Denver. This is a great number for Denver. What

301
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: are we missing here? So I'm like, yeah, I wish

302
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 3: I had someone else here that could talk me out

303
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 3: of it. But I like the four and a half.

304
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 3: But if I had to choose between this or the Saints,

305
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 3: I would definitely feel more comfortable taking a four and

306
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 3: a half.

307
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I take I'd be more comfortable taking

308
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: a four and a half with a really good defense

309
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: versus a number that moved from plus two to minus

310
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: one and a half on a quarterback who has never.

311
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: Won a game number one in his career in his career, right, all.

312
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: Right, last game that we can think about, and then

313
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: we'll make a call. Washington at the LA Chargers. This

314
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: was the second Simon says you were prescient on the Texans.

315
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: You said take the Texans at plus three and a

316
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: half on Tuesday. The show was live for an hour

317
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: maybe two at the most when that game moved because

318
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: of auto Lamar Jackson noise to making the Texans a favorite.

319
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels will be playing most of the Chargers starting

320
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: there off offensive line will not I'm starting to like

321
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: this game more than any other game we are picking

322
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: right now, and I know if we leave it out,

323
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: we will lose whatever game we keep in its place.

324
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 3: It's fair. It's it's two and a half still in

325
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 3: our contest, and.

326
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: Three two and a half and three out there right now,

327
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: right now.

328
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, for people that are betting, I'd grab the

329
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 3: three obviously. For us, we're talking to two and a

330
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 3: half and My only fear here is this is the

331
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 3: exact same situation as I made everyone take Denver a

332
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago, where it's like it's a it's

333
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 3: a good line, a good spot Denver's defense, and I

334
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 3: guess bo Nick's blew it at the end, right, And

335
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 3: we're putting a lot of faith that Daniels won't blow

336
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 3: it in the end here. And I don't know if

337
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: you saw the footage of him with that knee brace

338
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 3: on and him moving, he's not the same for this line,

339
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 3: even with McLaurin out as not butched. That's the most

340
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 3: interesting part to me that this two and a half

341
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 3: is held, because when I gave it out, I gave

342
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,479
Speaker 3: it out thinking, okay, this could easily drop if all

343
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,479
Speaker 3: these guys get cleared, and you know, this could get

344
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 3: down to one and a half. And with the other way,

345
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 3: there was a point a time where I got to

346
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 3: three and a half. So the fact that a couple

347
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 3: of these very public books, I've been taking NonStop chargers

348
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 3: money and they're holding a two and a half, it's

349
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 3: no different than us backing the Chiefs last week and

350
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: for good measure, the Jags this week. Like this is

351
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 3: the books are taking positions on these lines. I agree

352
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 3: with them, my model agrees with them. It's all about,

353
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 3: like I said to you, nutting up, that's the same

354
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 3: thing here where it's like I'm leaking confidence on the

355
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 3: Saints and I'm leaking confidence on this game. But I've

356
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: been betting both of them multiple days in a row,

357
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 3: and it's like, okay, I'm right there with you. Where

358
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 3: it's like we have a good number, a good spot

359
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: in this Commander's team against a Chargers team that's still

360
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 3: being valued like they are pretty healthy. Like this, I

361
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 3: just wanted to check my model if the Charges were

362
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 3: fully healthy, and watching it was fully healthy, what my

363
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 3: model would make that line had my Charger in minus

364
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: six and a half in the spot. So I've taken

365
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 3: three and a half four points just to the books

366
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 3: line off my line of what they would be healthy.

367
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: So it's just an interesting number where I could be

368
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 3: undervalue this Chargers team right now. But I don't think

369
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 3: I am. I think they are just not the team

370
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 3: we all thought they were even just two three weeks ago,

371
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 3: with all these injuries they've had, and we're putting faith

372
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: in the number with the books here honestly for back

373
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 3: of the commanders here, Jed So obviously we both wish

374
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 3: this was three and a half. We're taking two and

375
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 3: a half. I would still play if I once again,

376
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 3: if I had to take this over the Saints. I

377
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 3: would if I had to take it over Denver's that's

378
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 3: a tough conversation staying with the Jacks.

379
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: Why don't we do this, Let's take the Saints out.

380
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: We keep mentioning every time I would take this over

381
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: the Saints. I would take this over the Saints. Clearly

382
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 1: don't have a ton of confidence in the Saints, even

383
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: though even though we know at this point as we

384
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: say this, the Saints are going to win twenty seven

385
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: or nothing, so we can take out the Saints. It

386
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: comes down really to Jags Broncos. Commanders. We're locked in

387
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: with the Rams, obviously we lost. We're locked in with

388
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: the Texans, We're locked in with the Jets.

389
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 3: So we have to two locked in.

390
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 2: We have we have two locked in for today, we

391
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 2: need against three.

392
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 3: What's the what's the one we want out? I'll let

393
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: you pick, because you're you're again you're waving on the Jacks.

394
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 3: Pick if you if you fill in your soul brother,

395
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: I want you to put it in because again I

396
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 3: bet it now, I'm I'm on it with you. But

397
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 3: it's like it's that's going to be your one plant,

398
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 3: big big bet this week. This is my team. And

399
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 3: again we get to wait till Monday night, which is

400
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 3: even better.

401
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 2: I know it's miserable, it's miserable. I really want to

402
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 2: take the Jacks, Okay, so I'll take.

403
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 3: I'll take. So we got the we got the Jags

404
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: and then.

405
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 2: Houston.

406
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 3: And who do you want now, between Commis or Denver?

407
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: Yeah?

408
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 3: Who do you want? If we do? If we do Denver,

409
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,680
Speaker 3: we're basically done at one o'clock. After the one o'clocks.

410
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 1: Every time I want to say Denver, I actually want

411
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: to put the commanders in every time. I feel so

412
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: aggressive every time I say Denver.

413
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 3: No, let's do Commanders then, because I love the commanders too.

414
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 3: I just can't get over that such a If we

415
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: get burned the lands on three again, I'll I'll look forward.

416
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,959
Speaker 3: I won't make us better against the Chargers if it's

417
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 3: under three.

418
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 2: Well, look that.

419
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: That's the point though, like that, like let's not discount

420
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,719
Speaker 1: the number, Like the number is a big deal. We're

421
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: getting the four and a half with Denver. We're getting

422
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: the two and a half with the Commanders.

423
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 3: I know, but like I always tell you, the books

424
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 3: aren't our friends.

425
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 2: All right, So we're going with the Commanders, all right.

426
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 2: All right?

427
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: Then the final four that we're doing because we already

428
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: lost the Rams, we got the Texans. We get a

429
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 1: plus three and a half in the contest. We know

430
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: their favorites now, but we can only play the lines

431
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: that are presented. If you were listening to Tuesday Show,

432
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: then you were able to get the Texans at plus

433
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: three and a half. We're doing the Jets at plus

434
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: two and a half. We're doing the Jags at plus

435
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: three and a half. On Monday Night, we're doing the

436
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 1: Commanders at plus two and a half. But you can

437
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 1: get a three with the Commanders out there, so go

438
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: and get it. Reminder, we're coming back with a free
