Halfway through the season, Simon, 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: you and I are now we in one hundred and 24 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: sixty second place in our contest. We are inside the 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: top one point three percent. Time to bring in my 26 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: co host, my bff, my companion, Mike and Padre professional 27 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: better Simon the Hunter, Simon Simon, we had a winning 28 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: week last week. As I said to a buddy, I 29 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: was emailing with a buddy three and two, three and two, 30 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: three and two. Next thing you know, eighteen weeks later, 31 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: you're up eighteen units. I'll say it was our hardest, 32 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: most contentious week of the year. I feel like we 33 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: are lucky to have gotten out of it at three 34 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: and two, especially since our anchor leg was that Jets game. 35 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Action newk just retweeted this. The Jets 36 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 2: the only NFL team the Super Bowl era to have 37 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 2: their defense collect five plus sex, hold their appunt under 38 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: two hundred yards, not allow any play of twenty five 39 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: yards or more, and lose the game by twenty plus points. 40 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: So that's just the breaks Jet. We bet ugly teams 41 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: doesn't break our way The painful part is whenever we 42 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 2: leave two plays out and they both win, the odds 43 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: are stacked against us. So we left the Eagles and 44 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,399 Speaker 2: the Raiders out both covered. That's always scary where it's 45 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: just like you know you're not gonna hit win them all. 46 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: When you leave leave out a couple of those plays, 47 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: it asially comes back and bites you. And I'm with you, 48 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: Like three and two feels good to get there. We 49 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: nailed that Bengals game. Jets game not so much. 50 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, I still 51 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: would have made that play. Again, Like, looking at that game, 52 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: their defense is so freaking good. If Zach Wilson can 53 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: make one forward play instead of one backwards play in 54 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: a couple of times in the first half, in the 55 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: second half combined, yeah, it's a different conversation. Right, So, 56 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: you know, I think. 57 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: Could have got Josh Dobbs for a six round pick, 58 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: but they decided to roll with Zach Wilson. I'd be 59 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 2: pretty pissed off right now if I was a Jets fan. 60 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: Soon after this show, Simon, Matt Mitchell and I Matt 61 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: Mitchell from Milwaukee, Me from New York City.

Let's get 103 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: to week ten. Okay, Thursday Night football, Carolina visiting Chicago. 104 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: Chicago is a three and a half point underdog. This 105 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: one feels kind of strange to me. I will say 106 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: the total is forty prime time unders twenty two and 107 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: seven one sixty one one O two and three since 108 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. Another prime time under last night, actually twenty 109 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: three and seven because I forgot to update from last night, 110 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: so three prime time unders this weekend. The Bears should 111 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: have beaten New Orleans outright Like the Bears had five turnovers, 112 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: New Orleans still only won by seven. Bryce Young throws 113 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: two pick six's, which were the difference in the game. 114 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: We like Caroline a lot. On Sunday, I think it 115 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: was the right side. They dominated that game. More total yards, 116 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: more total plays, more yards per play, more rushing yards. 117 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: India was truly terrible. What do we want to do here? 118 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: Just bet the under? Move on? 119 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, a bit of a weird line though, right doesn't 120 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: it feel like a justin fields line. It feels like 121 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: a justin Fields line. 122 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: It feels, well, why do you say justin fields line? 123 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: Because the Bears are three and a half point dogs? 124 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: Like if if we knew field. 125 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: Was no, no, no, Bears are favorites. Yeah yeah, oh 126 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 2: they are. Yeah, nothing changed. I think they've been favorites, 127 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 2: haven't that? But they're minus three and a half. 128 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: All right, the shit, I guess I wrote down wrong. 129 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: That's weird. 130 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: Weird. Yeah, it's a game where you know, I'm just 131 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: going to be happy to take Carolina and I'm happy 132 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: to take the under. A lot of conversation about when 133 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: the books are going to adjust to this trend and 134 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 2: when they're going to catch you know, us betting these unders. 135 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: As long as the money keeps coming in late on 136 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: the over, I'm really not too worried about the books 137 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: catching up to us. I mean that number last night 138 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: moved from I believe thirty nine and closed at forty one, 139 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 2: and a lot of books by kickoff, Like that's what 140 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: keeps happening people, I'm telling you, like, you might think 141 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: everyone's on the under because on the app, and you know, 142 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: in the action app it says, you know, all the 143 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 2: money all the ticket is on the under in that 144 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: last hour. So much money always comes in on the over. 145 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 2: It's either people thinking they're smarter than ever all of 146 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: us and they're like, you know what we're doing for 147 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: an over? They come in on it, and then Joe 148 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: Public comes in on it. So right now, yeah, all 149 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 2: the bets, all the money is on the under. It'll 150 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: probably flip when it gets closer to it. I have 151 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: to just do it. I have to tick Caroline. I 152 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: have to stick the under. And it's a it's just 153 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 2: a bet on if it is fields. He hasn't played 154 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: a competitive football game and over a month, you expect 155 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 2: the guy who's not been the most accurate quarterback in 156 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: football to continue to be rusty coming back from an injury. 157 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 2: And on the Panthers side, I just I don't have 158 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: a model that can predict Bryce Young throwing pick sixes. 159 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 2: I wish I did. Me and Chat would be on 160 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 2: an island together if I did. But we assume you 161 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 2: won't have back to back weeks throwing pick sixes. So 162 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: if Brice can protect the ball, the Panthers will be 163 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: able to move the ball. I mean yea. Honestly, the 164 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: craziest thing craziest takeaway from that Saints game was how 165 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 2: good sweat was for you guys like that dude on 166 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: running plays, rushing the pass or sweat was it stood 167 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 2: out how good sweat is to your defense the Bears defense. Now, 168 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: you could say, well, that was just one game, don't 169 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 2: take too much from it, but that's a big deal 170 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 2: to me. You guys had no pulse on that d line. 171 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: A team could run it, they could pass it, they 172 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 2: could do whatever they want because they don't have to 173 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 2: really worry about a pass rush or your run defense. 174 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 2: So maybe I need to adjust more that sweat is 175 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: now in the Bears defense. But I still think teams 176 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 2: will be able to run the ball, and that's what 177 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 2: Carolina wants to do. So three and a half it 178 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: feels a little boring taken, but the fact that no 179 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 2: one really will on this Carolina team, right, everyone's just 180 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: off this stink like they just look so bad this week. 181 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: It's hard to avoid this number. Chen, I kind of 182 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 2: have to take it. 183 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: No, I agree, three and a half is totally this 184 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: side to me because Carolina they outplayed Indie last week 185 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: and it's like watching the Jets, right. Zach Wilson makes 186 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: horrific plays, but the rest of the team is playing 187 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: incredibly well. Yeah, and that's the difference maker, and that 188 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: this is what professional betters do. By the way, forty 189 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: eight hours later, they look at the entirety of what 190 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: happened in the game, They look at every line item 191 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: of the box score, and they're like, wait a second, 192 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: this team dominated the other team. We're gonna if we're 193 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: gonna look at the final score and make our bets 194 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: base in the final score, then we're no better than 195 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: any other smuck. So yes, I agree with you, Indy 196 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: and New England. And this is the Frankfurt, Germany game, 197 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: one of those dreaded games where the Colts started as 198 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: a dog. They're now the favorite. That's a forty four 199 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: to eighty four against the spread trend since twenty nineteen. 200 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: Of course, the Colts were in the same spot last 201 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: week against Carolina started as started in that same position, 202 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: and it's swung they covered. I hate saying that the 203 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: value is now on the Pats. I'm so glad this 204 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: camp be in the contest. We've talked about the Pats 205 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: all season. I want to spend his little time talking 206 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: about this game as possible. 207 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like my gut instincts like you want 208 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: to take the Colts. Colts just had a bad game. 209 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: You expect them to bounce back offensively. You know, we 210 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: talked about the splits for Minshew. He's not that great 211 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 2: of a quarterback, right, I think I said going to 212 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: the last game in his last fourteen, three and eleven ats, 213 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 2: he's good and he's bad. He's good and he's bad. 214 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 2: That's just how Minshew is. That's why he's a backup 215 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: Mac Jones though, four and fifteen ats for my guy 216 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: Evan four and fifteen ats. So you know, I'll be 217 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 2: one of those people, admit, Like earlier this year, anytime 218 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: Mac was a dog with Belichick, it was like you 219 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: got to take this like you're getting Belichick as an underdog, 220 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 2: and that's that's born out. That's gone like that. That 221 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: mentality for me is totally gone. And I'm with you, Chad, 222 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: like I'm I'll probably end up on the culture. I'll 223 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: just pass on this one. I got no no itch 224 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 2: in my body to get in on this Colt. I 225 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 2: mean this Patriots team where Mac Jones just can't make 226 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 2: the throws and he doesn't have the talent around him either, 227 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: Like he has good running backs, but the receivers are 228 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 2: terrible and Mac is no better. So yeah, four and 229 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: fifteen ats as a dog Mac Jones, I just I 230 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: just can't do it. 231 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 1: All right, Let's get into the heart of it then, 232 00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: because the Niners are visiting the Jags and Brock and 233 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: the Niners just had to buy he had been concussed. Uh, 234 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: they have been injured. After that Cowboys game, they've gone 235 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: into a tailspin. The Jags very sneaky six and two, 236 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: playing better since the London games. We talked about this 237 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: on Sunday night. We bet at a two and a half, 238 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: it moved up to three. You said it was your 239 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: first bet of the week. I don't know why anybody 240 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't take this. With Jags at plus three, everything feels 241 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: like it's lining up in the right spot. Shanahan historically 242 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 1: not great as a favorite on the road. His teams 243 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: are much much better when there. The expectations are a 244 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: little bit lower, to be honest. 245 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say I get it from the standpoint 246 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: of they've lost three straights. The four Nines have lost 247 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 2: three straight. They had a bye week. You assume they 248 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: come back and get right against this Jaguars team that 249 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: I mean, they're they're probably the second, what, the second 250 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: hottest team of football behind the Ravens. I mean, people 251 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 2: don't realize it because they just came off a bye week, but. 252 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I mean. It's very sneaky that they're 253 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: six and two. Like the AFC South is becoming more 254 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: interesting because of the Texans, but they're like, slowly but 255 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: surely they started. They started badly. They've been winning games, 256 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: they've been winning ugly games. They haven't even reached their 257 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: peak and they're six and two. 258 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and honestly, you know that that Houston game is 259 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: probably their worst game of the year. They lost what 260 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: was it, seventeen thirty seven. They like they got dominated, 261 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 2: but if you go back and look, that was that 262 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 2: wonky game of you know, Taryl Larns can stop turned 263 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: the ball over. They got a kick return Houston by 264 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: I think like a fullback something crazy like that. And 265 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 2: you know, since then, they've been good, Like they beat Atlanta, 266 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 2: they beat Buffalo, they beat the Colts, they beat the Saints, 267 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: then they just beat Pittsburgh then they had a bye week. 268 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: That's my only fear here is it's just like, what 269 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: are we not seeing, Chad, because that's obviously professional money 270 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: that's made this go up to three now. But I'll 271 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 2: take the three if the public and a couple of 272 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: pros love the forty nine ers. And you know, Chad 273 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: just said it, like Shanahan, he's kind of a different 274 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: coach than at home as a favorite than he is 275 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 2: on the road as a favorite. And I'm not going 276 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 2: to make this, Simon says, as much as I want to, 277 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 2: just because this could keep going up, like it could 278 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 2: go up to three and a half, but we'll grab 279 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: the three just in case it does come down. But 280 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 2: it's crazy. All the early money I'm looking at right 281 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: now in the action app all the early money is 282 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 2: on the forty nine ers. So I don't know, it's 283 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: just I just can't stop thinking that party has concussion. 284 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 2: He's not going to be healed from it right away, 285 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: and since he's gotten his head wrong, like you know, 286 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 2: it's they've lost three straight games, and you can put 287 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: blame wherever you won in these games. At the end 288 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 2: of the day, it all fell onto Purty. Perty was 289 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 2: the one that kept turning the ball over. He's the 290 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: one that when the game was close, they needed winning drive. 291 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: He got making mistakes and the four nine ers could 292 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: have picked a better time to have that bye week, right, 293 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: they might be getting back Trent Williams, the best tackle 294 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: in football arguably and Deebo Samuel. So big, big deal, 295 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 2: big deal for that four nine ers team. It's don't 296 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: don't go crazy ben this one yet, people, but you 297 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 2: have to grab the three, Like if you listen to 298 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 2: the show, you know which we love Home Dogs. You 299 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: got it, Dote, you got to grab the plus three 300 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: here and Evan just putting our chat. It could be 301 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 2: windy and Jacksonville as well, which you know between these 302 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 2: two teams might be looking to the under like Jags 303 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: defense better than people get perceived. Forty nine Ers defense 304 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 2: not as bad as that people are perceiving right now. Right, 305 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 2: they've looked bad these last couple of weeks. You know, 306 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: they just had a tough stretch where they got diced 307 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: up by Kirk, they got diced up by uh, you know, 308 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, Like they just they've had a bad run here. 309 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 2: So the fact that it might be windy that actually 310 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: would help that forty nine ers defense. 311 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: Uh, this next game, we haven't talked about it, yet 312 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 1: Tennessee visiting Tampa Bay. This is a Mike Vrabel we 313 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: love you spot. They're off of a right, they're off 314 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: of a bad loss against a really good defense now 315 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 1: playing a team that is coached by basically the bizarro 316 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: Mike Rabel. If Mike Brabel, we love him because over 317 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,959 Speaker 1: the past twenty years, he's one of the most profitable 318 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: coaches in the NFL. Todd Bowles. Todd Bowles the past 319 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: twenty years one hundred and forty three out of one 320 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: hundred and forty eight coaches. In terms of profitability against 321 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: the spread, he has one hundred and forty three out 322 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: of one hundred and forty eight. I mean, you know, 323 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: right now, we got Tennessee as a short road dog 324 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: plus one and a half. I got some other stats here, 325 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: but I want to get your take on what you 326 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: think of this because we didn't discuss it at all, 327 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: and I'm feeling like, how did we miss this? One 328 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: has a move, so we didn't miss anything, but we 329 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: just didn't bring it up. 330 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and initially I wanted to be on Titans. The 331 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 2: fear here is the Titans' only weakness on defense is 332 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: their secondary the only thing Tampa can do good is 333 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: give the ball on Mike Evans and Chris Godwin and 334 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: you know, a little scary like you're trying to convince 335 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 2: me it back a rookie quarterback again on the road. 336 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 2: And I do agree, right, the Pittsburgh's defense is actually 337 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: legit compared to the Bucks defense, which looked like tissue paper. Right. 338 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Houston went up and down the field at 339 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: will on this team, but they do have guys like 340 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 2: That's the hardest part here is they got guys on 341 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 2: this Tampa team that like they're playmakers. I know they 342 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 2: haven't shown up and they have a lot of holes 343 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: and Todd Bowles's defensive scheme is just trash. But it's hard. 344 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 2: I can't get there right now, Chad with you. Maybe 345 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 2: by Thursday, I'll get there on this Tennessee team. But 346 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 2: as we sit here right now, I don't know how 347 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 2: much I love Tennessee. In the spot. 348 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: Let me give you a couple more stats. You're not wrong. 349 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: They got guys. You're not wrong, rush D. This is 350 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: why I love you. I didn't even tell you what 351 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: I was going to want you to bring up so 352 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: I could get these stats in the Bucks defense is 353 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: getting exposed every single week. I know Vidave is back, 354 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: but they're rush D bottom five grade per Pro Football Focus. 355 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: They're past D bottom ten coverage, which has nothing to 356 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: do with vidavea bottom five. So they're going to get 357 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback who likes to fling it almost blindly sometimes, 358 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: and every guy he tries to throw to might be open. 359 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: This will be like by the time we get to 360 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: the end of Thursday, like we're gonna have six or 361 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: seven games, and this will probably be one of the 362 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: games that is on that like. 363 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 2: Oh god, okay, you'll probably better convince me that. So, 364 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: I mean, I need more time on this one. I 365 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: just I just didn't know what to deal with it. 366 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: This is this is my my favorite game this week. 367 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,479 Speaker 1: Cleveland and Baltimore. Baltimore is a six point favorite. I 368 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: loved it on Sunday. It was at five. I betted 369 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: at five, it moved up. I bet it again at six. 370 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: Give me the Cleveland Browns. My exact decision, the choice 371 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: between the unthinkable and the impossible? 372 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: Are you have your orders texting your numb execut have decision. 373 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: I feel like there should be four. It makes no 374 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: sense to me. Everything we can talk about, says, take 375 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: the underdog in a divisional game between two great defenses. 376 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: Don't I don't get this. You're a professional, better explain 377 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: it to me. 378 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 2: I did. I told you Sunday night why you should 379 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 2: have waited. It's it's the Deshaun Watson. It's just it's 380 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 2: unclear what the hell Deshaun Watson is. I don't know 381 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 2: if it's Deshaun Watson the old, which is a top 382 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 2: ten quarterback, or this is who Deshaun Watson is now, 383 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 2: which is a you know, top twenty, maybe number eighteen 384 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 2: quarterback in this league. He's just he's not what he 385 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 2: used to be. You'll have moments, these little these little 386 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: flashes of great throws and get it outside the pocket 387 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 2: and making good reads, and then you'll have these other 388 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 2: moments of just a guy that looks like at him 389 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: play competitive football in two years. It is tough for 390 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 2: me to get there, Chad, Like I, I mean, six 391 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 2: is such a key number. I'll probably get there now 392 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 2: with you on that number. But this feels like Seattle 393 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 2: over again, where it's just like you just take the 394 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: money line against the Ravens. Here like this feels like 395 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 2: the Ravens will roll again, or they'll lose a close 396 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 2: one to Cleveland because Cleveland, like Chad said, they got 397 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 2: the defense for it right. We talked last time they 398 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 2: played the Browns, the way they structured this D line 399 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 2: was kind of shut down Lamar and Joe Burrow, these 400 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 2: guys who can move in the pocket. They wanted to 401 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 2: have really fast guys on the edges that could keep 402 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: up with these guys if they do scramble. And you know, 403 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 2: the first time they played it was a total throwaway game. 404 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 2: Cleveland had in that I think rookie who threw multiple 405 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 2: picks and was just a complete disaster. I think it 406 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 2: was twenty seven to three again early in the season. 407 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but they got smoked. I want 408 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 2: to be there with you in Cleveland, like this is 409 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 2: a great defense. They know how big of a deal 410 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 2: this game is. Divisionally, it's huge. We say it every week, 411 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 2: but it's been true like this, this is peak, this 412 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 2: is peak on Lamar and this Ravens team. Like they've 413 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: been the best team the AFC through a couple of weeks. 414 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: Usually me and you like coming on the other side. 415 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 2: So I'll join you on the sixth chap. I'll tell 416 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: to everyone you can grab the six. But another game 417 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 2: that I think could keep going up just because all 418 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 2: the teasers, all the parlays will be tied to this 419 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 2: Ravens team. 420 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett right now is dominant no matter what the position. 421 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: He is one of the one of the top five 422 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: most impactful players in football right now. He has the 423 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 1: best pass rush win rate in the NFL, the second 424 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: best run stop win rate. Essentially, this is the percent 425 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: of time in a game that this player impacts a play, 426 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: so basically, every single time he's on the field, he's 427 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: impacting the play. As a team, Cleveland is better at 428 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: pass rush win rate, run stop win rate offensively pass 429 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: block win rate just behind Baltimore run block win rate. 430 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: The Browns are actually graded as the best pass rush 431 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: in the NFL. The Ravens are sixteenth. Ravens Rush D 432 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: and Brown's rush OH are essentially even. Then there's this 433 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: Harbaugh favorite of three and a half or more under 434 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: five hundred against the spread five and fourteen the last 435 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: three years. Lamar three and a half, three and a 436 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: half or more as a favorite twenty twenty nine, one 437 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty eighth of one hundred and seventy five 438 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks against the spread the past twenty years, and then 439 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: we refer to the stat a bunch this year. It's 440 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 1: my favorite stat this year. Home faves in the division 441 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: since twenty fifteen forty five percent against the spread. This 442 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: one just like it could go up. You're right, it 443 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: could totally go up, and maybe it will. And I'm 444 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: just I'm gonna do the Simon Hunter play. I believe 445 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: in the game it goes up, I'm getting a better number, 446 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: just gonna better it again, and it'll end up being 447 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: my entire bank bro for the year, because this game 448 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: will keep going up and I'll lose it all on 449 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: the Cleveland fucking Browns. It'll be another mistake I get 450 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: myself into because of the Cleveland Browns. But just doesn't 451 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: make sense to me. Yeah, all right, Houston at Cincinnati. 452 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: I feel like you this is to me like the 453 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: Cowboys and the Eagles were, Like, it feels a little 454 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: square to you. You can't quite get there. You're gonna 455 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: get information that the wise guys are liking it for 456 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: some reason, like this is where my tomfoolery and my 457 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: sort of lack of vision might actually play to our benefit. 458 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just get scared off of games I perceive 459 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 2: as coin flip games, and I do. I try my 460 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: best to avoid those type of games, like that Eagles game. 461 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 2: It was a win, but at the end of the day, 462 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 2: it was a coin flip. It came down to a 463 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: two pointer and we were on the right side of 464 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: that two pointer. You know, that Houston and Bucks game 465 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: total coin flip game, and I couldn't avoid it because 466 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 2: the numbers didn't make sense, and we got lucky where 467 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: it worked out for us, because I just think, get 468 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 2: why it was two and a half. It was like 469 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 2: everyone in the world was betting Houston. All the money 470 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: was coming on Houston, but the number one from three 471 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: on the Bucks down to two and a half. So 472 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: those are things I'm looking for where it's like if 473 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: I don't understand a game, I don't trust a number 474 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 2: and I think it's a coin flip game, but the 475 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 2: number of reverse moves and it's moving towards what I 476 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 2: think is gonna happen, which is obviously the book's covering. 477 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 2: It's like, Okay, that gives me confidence. But on the 478 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 2: flip side, like that Jets game, I told you like 479 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 2: I did, not like I was just sitting at three 480 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 2: and a half. When when there's a game like that 481 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 2: and it's a public dog and it's a primetime public dog, 482 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 2: those are things you look for. So it is tough 483 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 2: where we do a show like here on Tuesday, just 484 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 2: like the Jets last week, we did the show Tuesday. 485 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 2: So I already had been betting since Sunday night. Bet 486 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: it Tuesday, bet it again, Wednesday, I bet it again, 487 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: Thursday better Friday, Saturday. Started losing confidence me and you 488 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 2: talk Sunday morning. I'm just like, I fucking hate this Jets. 489 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: Pick what are we gonna do? I'm already heavily invested 490 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 2: in it. I promoted on multiple different shows we did, 491 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 2: so yeah, that's the fir for me. Chat. It's like 492 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: this week, Like I know, we said last week was tough. 493 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 2: This week there's a couple of lines that really jump 494 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: out where it's like that feels too good to be true. 495 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 2: And that's what this Browns number feels like like six 496 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 2: Like you just said, way too many points this defense 497 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 2: to be getting. So definitely a weird line. 498 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: Let me have no fear enough for both of us 499 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: Houston Houston at since y since he was a seven 500 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: point favorite. It's down to six and a half. Bets 501 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: are coming in on Sincy, money's coming in on Houston. Look, 502 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow right now is nine to one to win 503 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: MVP after the Sunday night game. When October began, he 504 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: was fifty to one. Meanwhile, c J. Stroud is having 505 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: coming off the best for a rookie quarterback in history. 506 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 1: Since the defense is actually pretty middle of the road, 507 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: just top five against the rush. 508 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 2: C J. 509 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: Stroud is very good under pressure and that's because he 510 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: doesn't feel the pressure because he gets the ball away 511 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: in two seconds, literally two seconds, which is just behind 512 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow and two of for quickest release in the NFL. 513 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: I don't have a strong opinion on this one. If I, 514 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: if I had been smart, I would have played Houston 515 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: a plus seven. I didn't doesn't feel like a contest 516 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: play to me. 517 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: I'm on the other side right now. I love Bengals. 518 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: I love Bengals on the screen. You're getting to fade 519 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 2: a rookie off a historical performance. I know he's cool headed, 520 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 2: like he's not gonna let us head get too big 521 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: from it, but it's gonna be a big difference going 522 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 2: at home throwing up thrown against air. Now he's going 523 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 2: on the road to Cincy, playing against a legiti AFC contender. 524 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:03,959 Speaker 2: That's a reason this number is so big. That's why 525 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: I like a couple people in message, why don't you 526 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 2: guys talk about Houston at the seven. I just don't 527 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 2: want anyone to bet it. I just I thought that 528 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 2: was a weird number in the first place. Even before 529 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: the Bengals game, I thought to myself, that's just a 530 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 2: weird number. They're hanging out there that you can grab 531 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: Houston before this game's even played at plus seven. I mean, 532 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: if that Bengalis said they had lost that game, what's 533 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: this dropped to four and a half? Most likely, like 534 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 2: it just would have been a total overreaction by the public. 535 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 2: And it feels like they're reacting on Houston right now, 536 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 2: just the fact that they're just blindly betting this number 537 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 2: at what it's at. The question right now is what 538 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 2: is what is the difference between CJ at home than 539 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 2: on the road? Right we've seen the splits. I think 540 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 2: I don't want could go look at the splits. He's 541 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 2: a totally different quarterback at home than on the road. 542 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 2: You know, the previous week before last week, they lost 543 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: to the Panthers thirteen to fifteen on the road. Right, 544 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 2: struggled to struggle on the road. Let's go two weeks 545 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 2: before that, he played in a lan Remember how bad 546 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 2: this Atlanta secondary is. This Atlanta secondary has given up 547 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: all these yards at will Levis just gave up a 548 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 2: ton of yards of the dobbs. They lost nineteen to 549 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 2: twenty one to Atlanta on the road. And he just 550 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 2: had a bad game as well, because why because he 551 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 2: struggled in the red zone. So I believe you're able 552 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 2: to move the ball, like you said, up and down 553 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 2: the field on sincey, but when they get in the 554 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 2: red zone, that's what since he's really good at this year. 555 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 2: And yeah, some of those early numbers on their defensive front, 556 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 2: they were bad the first three four weeks defensively the 557 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: Sincy team. So those numbers do make sense that they 558 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 2: don't project out as a great defense right now. But 559 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 2: can we all say we've seen something different than these 560 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. I mean the way they played 561 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: against the forty nine ers, the way they played against 562 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 2: Josh Allen. I mean Josh Allen. You could say he 563 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: had a bad game that game. I thought he played 564 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 2: really well. I just thought since he kept taking away 565 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 2: what he wanted to do, which they took away digs. 566 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, here we go, another great staff from our guy, 567 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 2: Evan Stroud. Nine point three yards per attempt at home, 568 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 2: he's six point nine on the road. Oh that's that's 569 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 2: a pretty big drop off on the yards he's getting 570 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 2: through the air passing. So not going to be suckering 571 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: into this one. Like I got my first flance was like, 572 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 2: take Houston. That's a huge number, too big. I'm gonna 573 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 2: go at the Bengals and I'll back them at six 574 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: and a half. Here you know what Simon says, six 575 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: and a half Bengals. 576 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 3: When Simon says do it, we do what Simon's say. 577 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: No, Wow, I can't believe it did it because I 578 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 2: wasn't Eve gonna do that. But I just I don't 579 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,719 Speaker 2: feel confident about this one where it's just big splits. 580 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you said that because in my notes 581 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: when I was researching the game yesterday, like I couldn't 582 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: like and it was seven, I couldn't get a sense 583 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: of where the inflation was, and I'm like, I think 584 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: it's Houston, But I'm not quite sure, and like because 585 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: you had so much like positivity from both sides. 586 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard. 587 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: So you're bringing clarity right now, and you're giving me 588 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: comfort to bet on the team that we think is 589 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: better and is really playing like one of the two 590 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: or three best teams in the AFC, along with the 591 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: Ravens and the Chiefs. To bet on them as in 592 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: your touchdown favorite and we're getting the half point different. 593 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: So you're calling it, You're putting your credibility behind it, 594 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: your authority, your genius. I fucking love that you just 595 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: made this, Simon says. I did not see this coming, 596 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: didn't see it. Love this, Simon. I love when there's 597 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: magic like that. You know where there's not magic New Orleans, 598 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: it's just luck. This team another one. We talked about 599 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: it on Sunday night. They're at Minnesota, the game open 600 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: at three, Minnesota plus three, down to two and a half. 601 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: We expected it to move in the Vikings direction. It did. 602 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier in the show when talking about the Bears, 603 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: how lucky the Saints got and all the stats are 604 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: in our direction. Here about how terrible car is as 605 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: a favorite. He did not cover against the Bears. They 606 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: needed five turnovers to win. I went back and counted 607 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: yesterday when I was doing my research. All of those 608 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: turnovers for the Bears were in Bears territory led to 609 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: ten points. Another was a miss Saints field goal, include 610 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: a fourth down stop and a punt like they couldn't 611 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: convert anything. We've been talking about Derek Carr being better 612 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: as he got closer to the goal line. That wasn't it. 613 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: This team got very lucky to walk away from that 614 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: game with a win. So now we got Josh Dobbs. 615 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: There's always something weird about backup quarterbacks when they come in. 616 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: It flips the script on your bet, right because all 617 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:54,719 Speaker 1: of a sudden, like there's havoc that's being created in 618 00:33:54,800 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 1: weird ways that a team has to defend against. Jobs 619 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: doesn't have that this week. He might just go back 620 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: to being Josh Jobs from the Cardinals. So I don't 621 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: really have a strong opinion on this game. 622 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, another game where it feels like we're able to 623 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 2: buy low on the Saints team. I think most people 624 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 2: perceive what you just said, which is like the Saints 625 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 2: got pretty lucky. They didn't play that good last week, 626 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 2: which is true, Like they didn't play that great. How 627 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 2: only reason I want to back the Vikings because it's 628 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 2: a fun story. It's a fun team, but the numbers 629 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 2: move too much. The value is now on the Saints. 630 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 2: You're getting a better team under three playing against you know, 631 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 2: a team's backup. They just brought in like they're gonna 632 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 2: see the tape. The tape will be pretty simple. It's 633 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 2: like if you can stop you can stop Dobbs from 634 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 2: you know, running outside the pocket and picking up first downs. 635 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 2: They're dead like the guy. The guy only knew when 636 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 2: when If you go back and watch a film when 637 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 2: they would run routes, they basically only had five plays 638 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,280 Speaker 2: to run. They must have went to them and said, 639 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 2: what are the five plays? You know? And they just 640 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 2: ran those five plays. It's I'm with everyone, it's such 641 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 2: a fun story, but I need to like be the 642 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 2: professional game that I am and take the value here. 643 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 2: The value is the Saints. Like their defense is good. 644 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 2: They're what I talked about the Derek Carr in the 645 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 2: red zones are real thing, but they're kind of neutralizing 646 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,919 Speaker 2: that with the Taysom Hill aspect. Like Taysom Hill came in, 647 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 2: what do he do he? I think he ran for 648 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 2: a touchdown and he received a touchdown. I think my guy, uh, 649 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: I think it was. Chris Raymond said that since week 650 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 2: like three, Taysom Hill is tied with Travis Kelcey's number 651 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: one tight end in fantasy football. So it's a thing 652 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,359 Speaker 2: where they're just been using him like they started. They started. 653 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 2: They started the season, I really using Taysom Hill, and 654 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 2: the season has gone on here they've kind of figured 655 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 2: out how to use him. So Vikings, they were being 656 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,439 Speaker 2: held up by Kirk Cousins, right. We talked all year 657 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 2: like they have a bad defense. They're the one that 658 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 2: most blitz heavy defense in all football because they have 659 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 2: no talent. And Leslie Frazier just knows, I just got 660 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 2: a blitz like I don't have the dudes to cover. 661 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 2: We gotta get pressure on the quarterback, rush to the 662 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 2: quarterback being lost in the shufflers. Heindekee put up what 663 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 2: twenty eight points against this defense and this Vikings team. 664 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 2: It's hard for me not to want to back the 665 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 2: Saints here. And another staff from our guy, Evan Dobbs, 666 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 2: is one and nine straight up as a starter. Chat. 667 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 2: So if this number keeps moving, if this dips between 668 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 2: one and a half. This might not being one of 669 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 2: my biggest bets of the week. I'm gonna hate myself 670 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 2: putting this much money on Derek Carr, but it's just 671 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 2: that's the way the line's moving people. 672 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: You know what's funny is sometimes I'm taking notes while 673 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: we're doing the podcast so I can refer to it 674 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: on Thursday and then on Sunday and our conversations about 675 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: what we're going to put in there. Sometimes we start 676 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: talking about a game and you say you like it, 677 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm not even gonna write that one down. 678 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: And then as it goes along, that's fair. And then 679 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 1: as it goes along, like I hear you talking about 680 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: it more and more, I'm like, oh fuck, he loves me. 681 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 3: I know. 682 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: That's that's how I feel. That's how I feel. 683 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,959 Speaker 1: And then you just you just told me it will 684 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: move down. It will end up being one of your 685 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: biggest bets of the week. We will have to put 686 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: it in the contest. And it's making me sick because 687 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: now I just started adding up like the contest is 688 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: going to be. It'll end up being the fucking Jags 689 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 1: plus three, the Titans plus one, and a half Saints 690 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: the Saints, like it'll get down to minus one and 691 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: a half, Like, oh my god, it's gonna be fucking terrible. 692 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: By the way, that's. 693 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 1: That's right, producer Tito reporting in the chat, the Rams 694 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: are signing Carson Wentz. 695 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 2: My my old, my old hero. I still love, still 696 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 2: have his jersey, never burned it. Thank you Carson Wentz 697 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 2: for my Super Bowl and I'm happy for him going 698 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 2: the Rams. Maybe I'll have that Baker bump Baker went 699 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 2: to the RAMS completely helped him re energize and relearn 700 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 2: football with McVeigh and hope. Nothing the best for Wentz, 701 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 2: but pretty horrible, pretty horrible for me as someone that 702 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 2: has a decent amount of money on Rams over six 703 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 2: and a half wins. This might mean Stafford's out for 704 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: a little while, which is just not what I wanted 705 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 2: to hear. So hopefully this is a signing just to 706 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: be the backup, not to come in and be like 707 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 2: a starter for the next four weeks. 708 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: Well, it's appropriate that Tito gave us the news because, 709 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 1: as a reminder for the second time, catch every episode 710 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: of The Favorites live on YouTube. For those enjoying on YouTube, 711 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: don't forget to give us a like and subscribe to 712 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: the Action Network YouTube page. Okay, next game up, green 713 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,439 Speaker 1: Bay at Pittsburg. I was gonna say pitt but that's 714 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 1: not really how they say it. Green Bay at Pittsburgh. 715 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: The Steelers are three point favorites, not a spot that 716 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: we tend to like. Backing Mike Tomlin, you talked about 717 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: this on Sunday. You liked it at two and a half, 718 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,760 Speaker 1: you liked it at three. I was hesitant. Came around 719 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: it started to make sense. Jordan Love is terrible. He's 720 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: not even getting blitzed that often but still has one 721 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: of the highest throw percentages in the league. 722 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 2: Horrible, horrible. 723 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: We really don't like Tomlin when he's not a dog. 724 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,320 Speaker 3: I try to keep it real simple. Football is our game. 725 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,839 Speaker 3: Our business is winning. There's a business component of this thing. 726 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 3: And when we win, into business is being handled and 727 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 3: when you not is not. 728 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: And then Simon, I don't know if you saw this 729 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: or not in Slack in our luck Rankings channel, Nick Giffin, 730 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: let us know this is a massive luck rankings game 731 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: in favor of the Packers. 732 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 2: Damn it, I know it. 733 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: Actually, Like there's very few stats and trends we do. 734 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,280 Speaker 1: There's a couple that, like I believe in more than others, 735 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 1: like the divisional game that I just talked about with 736 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: the Browns, Like I believe in that, right, I truly 737 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: believe that is a real signal in the noise. Luck 738 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 1: rankings to me are a signal in the noise because 739 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 1: we don't do them haphazardly. We only talk about them 740 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 1: when there's real meaning and real delta that can be 741 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: of value to people. So this fucking kills me because 742 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:11,800 Speaker 1: I know we're both on Pittsburgh at two and a 743 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:12,319 Speaker 1: half and three. 744 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's things to where it's like, if you 745 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 2: want to just play the lazy way, you just take 746 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and the Green Bay under first half, Like both 747 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 2: these teams apparently are the worst. I have to check 748 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 2: it again, but I'm almost positive. Before I came on 749 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 2: my notes, I had it as both bottom five and 750 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 2: points scored in the first half, Like these are just 751 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 2: two teams. And we joked about the Steelers, how many 752 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 2: games did they look dead in the first half and 753 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 2: then somehow win coming out in that second half, And 754 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 2: they've had a bunch of games that way this year. 755 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: Green Bay is a dead all game, I mean that 756 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 2: Rams game. They were begging to lose that game in 757 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 2: every way possible. And even though the Rams are banged up, 758 00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 2: even defensively, Green Bay couldn't do anything offensively. They're just bad. 759 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 2: Like and as much I want to put it on 760 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: Jordan of Love that he's so bad as well, it 761 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 2: has to follow on the coaches as well. Right, are 762 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 2: they really putting him in the best positions? And if 763 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 2: they are, then yeah, he's a complete flop. And I'm 764 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 2: assuming they'll move on from them after this year or 765 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 2: maybe next year. But uh, I'm with you, Chad, Like 766 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 2: I'd feel more confident if more books were shown this 767 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 2: at three and a half, Like that would make me 768 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 2: feel good because that's like, Okay, at least we got 769 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: the best number two and a half. At least we 770 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 2: got the good number at three. A couple of books 771 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 2: have shown the three and a half and then they 772 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 2: come back down to the three. You know, maybe we'll 773 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 2: get there by Sunday. Like people know I'm gonna be better. 774 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 2: I'm investing in this one. I'm gonna be invested in Pittsburgh. 775 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 2: I'll be taking Pittsburgh in this game. As long as 776 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 2: that three two and a half. I'm gonna be back 777 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh this number. But I'm definitely with you, like 778 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 2: the splits, the trends with Tomlin as a favorite, not great, 779 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 2: not don't give me as confident as we get when 780 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 2: we take him as a dog. So definitely something to 781 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 2: be weary of. But another game one Thursday. If I 782 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 2: come in here and I have more confidence that it 783 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 2: just means I know that there's other pro groups coming 784 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 2: in on this Pittsburgh team with me, But right now 785 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 2: it feels like it's just me on Pittsburgh. So a 786 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 2: little scary. 787 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: All right, Well, this one won't be in the contest 788 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: as of yet. Right now, our five contest games, I'll 789 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: repeat Jags, Tennessee, Brown's, Bengals, New Orleans, Atlanta, Arizona. We 790 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 1: talked about this one on Sunday too. We just decided 791 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: we were taking a little bit, tiny, little little emy 792 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 1: weenie taste of Arizona at plus two and a half. 793 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,399 Speaker 1: If news came out that Kyler was going to come back. 794 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 1: He's been practicing in the past couple of weeks. They 795 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 1: played Clayton Tune last week. I believe Kyler is playing 796 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 1: on Sunday and this lion has now moved to one 797 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: and a half. Other than the fact I wanted to 798 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,280 Speaker 1: get the edge at the two and a half, I'm 799 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 1: really and I barely bet it like half a unit, 800 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: and I put it in the app actually network app. 801 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 1: I really have a strong opinion on this game, Like 802 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: to me, I wouldn't put it in the contest. 803 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm cool keeping it moving, like I'm with you, 804 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 2: Like I only got probably like a thousand bucks down. 805 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 2: It was freaking Sunday night, like the books aren't taking 806 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 2: much anyway, and we kind of made a bet just 807 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 2: hoping that it would be Kyler and we would get 808 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 2: good value value on the line movement. No, it's great. 809 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 2: It's gone from two and a half down to one now, 810 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,280 Speaker 2: like yeah, that feels great, but it's it's for pennies. 811 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,359 Speaker 2: Like I'm not getting anything really out of this one. 812 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 2: So I'm with you, chat, I got no interest to 813 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 2: really betting this game. 814 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:29,839 Speaker 1: Weird because I got down five times. 815 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 2: You must know a guy. 816 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 1: I know a guy Detroit at Los Angeles Chargers. We 817 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: talked about this one on Sunday night too. You bet 818 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: it immediately at minus one lions. You said you're back 819 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: in the public road fave, and you said sometimes public 820 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: wins super Chalky, is there a number at which you 821 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: would not bet the Lions? Like to you, you still 822 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: like the note? You still like the bet. 823 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like the Chargers look broken and the Lions look 824 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 2: like one of the class of the NFC. Like, uh, 825 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 2: you know, they've had some brutal injuries. And I just 826 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 2: just before he came on the guy I really trust 827 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 2: when they're best beat writers and all Detroit said this 828 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 2: is the healthiest this team's been all season. Like, I 829 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 2: take that as a big deal, Like a guy that's 830 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 2: locked into this team, that means Montgomery's coming back. I 831 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 2: don't know Montgommer's coming back. With this beat writer saying 832 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 2: that that, I'm assuming it means Montgomery's coming back, which 833 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 2: if you look at the numbers this year, he's one 834 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,840 Speaker 2: of the best red zone running backs in all football. 835 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 2: And that's a big deal to Detroit, a team that 836 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 2: you know, not that that's their bread and butter, but 837 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:43,840 Speaker 2: they're a team that scores like they're a team that 838 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 2: really needs to put up points. And their defense has 839 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 2: been better and they have made strides and you know, 840 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 2: we saw it with that Charters team they lost Williams, 841 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 2: they lost Palmer so two and really important receivers to Herbert. 842 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 2: So now that means all the focuses shifted to Keenan Allen. 843 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: So defenses are doubling Keenan Allen. They could not be 844 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 2: more happy to leave that rookie. What's the name Quinton Johnson, 845 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 2: the rookie receiver for the Chargers. I mean, that's a gift. 846 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 2: You can put that guy on one on one coverage 847 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 2: without a safety over top all game because he is bad. 848 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 2: He's bad at running routes, he's bad at body of control, 849 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 2: he's bad at hand placement. Total whift by the Chargers 850 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 2: in a draft with wide receivers that really felt like 851 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:25,760 Speaker 2: you really couldn't miss. There's a lot of good talent 852 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 2: in this draft class. They totally missed on this kid. 853 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 2: So I mean, I'm looking at the app right now. 854 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 2: It's like the money, the tickets or something like that 855 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 2: is on Detroit. So if it stays that way, me 856 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 2: and Chad having this in our contest is about zero 857 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 2: percent chance. But I bet at the one and a half. 858 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 2: I bet the one. I bet the two when he 859 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 2: got to two. Now that it's at two and a half, 860 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 2: I've kind of stopped, so maybe if this gets a 861 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 2: three and a half, I'll do a Chad Middleman play 862 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 2: and try to hit that middle But how do I 863 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,320 Speaker 2: not join the public here? The Lions just feel like 864 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 2: such a better team, and I don't see them sleepwalking 865 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 2: this game. I mean, I know they're coming off a bye, 866 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 2: but like, how do you not get fired up for 867 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 2: this game? In La? Yeah, it's off one shad. 868 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: But what you just said is interesting to me because 869 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: and by the way, this number is all over the board, 870 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: two and a half, two and a half, one and 871 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: a half, one and a half, Like it's it's everywhere 872 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:34,760 Speaker 1: right now, what you just said is interesting. The Lions 873 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: look like the one of the class of the NFC, 874 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 1: and the Chargers look broken. All the money is coming 875 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: in the Lions, Isn't that when we would normally bet 876 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 1: the Chargers. 877 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 2: It is if they had a true home field. That's like, 878 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 2: that's what breaks the rule here. It's not like this 879 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: is Lambeau or this is Dallas or Philadelphia. Like it's 880 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 2: not a real home dog. Their whole lives are on 881 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 2: the road, Like even when they're at home. You know, 882 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 2: do we really think the diehard Lions fans aren't going 883 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 2: to show up more than the Chargers fans of this game. 884 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 2: Of course we do. So you're right though, normal spot, 885 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 2: I'm almost always on the Chargers here, so that's the 886 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 2: only reason I wouldn't be in our contest come Sunday 887 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 2: if this is the same splits, which is ninety ninety. 888 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Evan tells us too, You'll tell us Sunday 889 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 2: morning what the splits are. Like, I'm out, Like, no 890 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 2: way would this one be in the contest. But if 891 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 2: we get some hopefully professional money someone to come in 892 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 2: on the other side and come in on the Chargers team, 893 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 2: I'd feel much better if this was a seventy seventy 894 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 2: split rather than a ninety ninety split, which is just insane. 895 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough. It's tough, all right. The next game, 896 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:47,479 Speaker 1: the New York Giants at the Dallas Cowboys. Our guy 897 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 1: Tommy DeVito has been named a full time starter for 898 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 1: the rest of the year for the New York Giants. 899 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 1: That is tragic, like there's sometimes you just feel bad, 900 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 1: like it's basically the truth is, every coach, every player 901 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: has a limited window in which to experience being in 902 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: the NFL. And for the Giants, their window one of 903 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: years of the one year of those of that window 904 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 1: is now being controlled by Tommy Davito, And that's just 905 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,359 Speaker 1: I feel bad for them. They're sixteen and a half 906 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 1: point dogs to the Cowboys. 907 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Jim tanned laundry Baby. Here we go, 908 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 2: Tommy DeVito. How you feeling, boys? Chad said it, we 909 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 2: usually go Dallas here. We take them as big favorites 910 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,720 Speaker 2: against bad teams and tends to work out for us. 911 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 2: I don't in what world do they scroll on this 912 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 2: Dallas defense, especially at Dallas coming off a loss, Like 913 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 2: if they beat the Eagles and this number was this high, 914 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 2: you know, I probably could get talked into that, Like 915 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:57,280 Speaker 2: I could probably get talked into the Vito like he had, 916 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 2: you know, some moments where it's like, Okay, I can 917 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 2: see why this kid made a roster against the Raiders, 918 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,280 Speaker 2: like he that's how low the bar was. He completed 919 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 2: a couple of passes out there. Okay, this kid's got 920 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:13,280 Speaker 2: some moxie. He's he doesn't it shouldn't be in the league. 921 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,439 Speaker 2: It's like this guy is the classic definition of well, 922 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 2: I don't want to be paying a guy who's been 923 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 2: in the league for ten years, a couple extra million. 924 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,399 Speaker 2: I rather just draft the guy and you know, see 925 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,760 Speaker 2: what he has making my project. Maybe he's a Rock Purtier. 926 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 2: Maybe he's just gonna be on our bench. He'll be 927 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 2: out a league in three years. That's that's what this 928 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 2: kid's future was, right, he was just gonna come in, 929 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 2: get a couple of cheap checks, just filling a body 930 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 2: on the roster. Right he was behind Daniel Jones, behind 931 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 2: Tyrod Taylor. This kid was never going to see the field. 932 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:46,880 Speaker 2: Now he is starting in Dallas. Just a nightmare. So 933 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 2: I won't get there because it's such a big number. 934 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 2: But if Chad came to me Sunday mornings, like we 935 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 2: got to put this in and it's under seventeen, I 936 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:57,239 Speaker 2: might be able to get there because it's just a 937 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 2: horrible spot for the Giants or just walking into the 938 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 2: Hornets nest right now with this Dallas team. But just 939 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 2: an absurd, huge number. And I think we use Dallas 940 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,800 Speaker 2: already for survivor. But like this, this is the standout 941 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 2: play of the week, Like, if you still got Dallas, 942 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 2: how do you not use them here against this kid? 943 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 1: Look, I think we're gonna have a lot of options 944 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 1: that we like on Sunday. We probably won't need to 945 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,719 Speaker 1: get down to Dallas. One of the options which I 946 00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: do like, Seattle a six point favorite at home, some 947 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: places six and a half, but you can still get 948 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:38,960 Speaker 1: it at six at home against Washington. Love Seattle in 949 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 1: this spot. All the stuff that we liked about Seattle 950 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:46,280 Speaker 1: against Baltimore still applies. They have a good defense, didn't 951 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: show it against Baltimore. They have a good quarterback, didn't 952 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: show it against Baltimore. But they are playing a far 953 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,439 Speaker 1: inferior team in Washington that is sort of coming back 954 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 1: down to earth after losing Chase Young and Montes Sweat Right, 955 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:03,240 Speaker 1: they had that US against the World dead cat bounce 956 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,759 Speaker 1: against New England. They were playing the right team in 957 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: New England, a team that can't execute no matter what 958 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:11,280 Speaker 1: the scenario. The reality is this is not New England 959 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 1: and that Washington rush d is bad on multiple levels. 960 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: From an advanced metrics point of view, this is how 961 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: Seattle will try to win the game. Shout out to 962 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 1: Brandon Anderson, who does the hot read in the podcast 963 00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 1: that Joe Blant and Evan do on Sunday night. Wrapping 964 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 1: up the week, who choose a couple games that he 965 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 1: looks ahead on, and he's been smoking hot on these games. 966 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: He was two and er last week and Seattle is 967 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 1: one of the games that he liked. I got it 968 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 1: at six. It's moving up in some places, but I 969 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: do love Seattle in this spot. 970 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 2: It's line stinks. I don't get it. Why is it 971 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 2: not over seven? Fishy number, fishy line, fishy game. I 972 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 2: don't get this number. Read I was with you. I 973 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,280 Speaker 2: want to be on Seattle, Like this is a great 974 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,759 Speaker 2: bounce back spot for Seattle. Washington already coming off a 975 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 2: road win. They don't really need I mean, of course 976 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 2: they need this game, but they're not desperate, right, they don't. 977 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 2: They don't have that stank all week. They're feeling pretty 978 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 2: good all week. They had a win. Now they're going 979 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 2: up to Seattle. I do not get this number at all. Like, 980 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 2: Seattle is such a better team to me than Washington, 981 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:20,760 Speaker 2: especially after Washington made all these trades. Be careful, people, 982 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 2: be careful on this one. I have no bets on 983 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,919 Speaker 2: it yet. I don't know what I'm doing leaning leaning 984 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 2: towards Washington. I just I do not Yeah, I just 985 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:32,399 Speaker 2: don't get this number, Like why why is this under 986 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 2: a touchdown? Like this? Seattle should roll in this game. 987 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 2: Like you just said, there's there's nothing on Washington's defense 988 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 2: that's going to give problems to Gino in this offense. 989 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:46,760 Speaker 2: So you know, maybe maybe I way too much respect 990 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 2: for Eric Blentemy and like I think he should be 991 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 2: the head coach of the Washington He's just been incredible offensively. 992 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,760 Speaker 2: What he's done with Sam Howe and this offensive Washington 993 00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 2: has just been amazing. Like this guy, he's been for them. 994 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 2: Just look at what the Chiefs of the Chiefs are 995 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,320 Speaker 2: now since he's left, like that Chiefs offense looks totally 996 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 2: lost and he's the only difference. He's like Yeah, someone said, well, 997 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 2: do you think it matters that Juju left? Did Juju 998 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 2: really change the Chiefs offense last season? No, Like he's 999 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 2: Eric is the reason they're there. Their offense is struggling 1000 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 2: in the Kansas City. Like the man, maybe we gave 1001 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 2: too much credit day to Reid and that's why he left, right, 1002 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 2: he wasn't getting the head coaching jobs. He said, forget it, 1003 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 2: I'm leaving. I'm going somewhere. That's just a train wreck 1004 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: that I'll prove to everyone that I am an offensive 1005 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: genius and I can't doubt him like he's just he's 1006 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 2: The way he's coaching now has just been amazing. So 1007 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 2: I'm right there with you, Chad. I don't get this number. 1008 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,479 Speaker 2: Why Seattle is so low, feels like it's great value 1009 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 2: in Seattle. I'm just I'm just gonna stay away from it. 1010 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 2: There's something fishy about this line. 1011 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 1: Teams to lose by twenty points or more the previous 1012 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 1: week facing a team that didn't lose by twenty points 1013 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 1: or more, they are sixty percent against the spread since 1014 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty in Week ten. That includes the Giants, the Cardinals, 1015 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,839 Speaker 1: and Seattle. So in theory, two out of those three 1016 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 1: teams should cover. And I think, to me, Seattle in 1017 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:22,960 Speaker 1: Arizona feel like the right sides to cover. So I 1018 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 1: still like it. 1019 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 2: I know you don't know if I told you. Ninety 1020 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:28,359 Speaker 2: percent of the handle is on Sincere on Seattle, and 1021 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 2: seventy percent of the tickets is on Seattle, and the 1022 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 2: book is still showing six. It's just weird. It's a weird, 1023 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 2: weird number. I know it's early in the week, but 1024 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,480 Speaker 2: I just it's only something. Something's funny about that line. 1025 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: Right, But it's no different than the Lions all all 1026 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,399 Speaker 1: the tickets, right, Yeah, it's still yeah. 1027 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 2: I don't feel great with the Lions either. It's just 1028 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,359 Speaker 2: I got these books. They lay traps. We talk all 1029 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,840 Speaker 2: the time, and this is this is definitely one of 1030 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 2: those weird numbers. 1031 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Simon, you know I don't have nuances in 1032 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 1: my feelings. I've I feel sick or I feel amazing. 1033 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 1: Right now on Seattle against Washington, I feel amazing.

This 1057 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 1: game has moved from two and a half to one 1058 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 1: and a half. No opinion on this. Can't find a 1059 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:27,840 Speaker 1: way to bet it. That makes me feel comfortable? 1060 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 2: What you love the Jets here? How do you not 1061 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,879 Speaker 2: love the Jets here? I'm praying this move to them 1062 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 2: being a dog. That would be incredible Like this, This 1063 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 2: rookie QB getting all the love right now for the Raiders. 1064 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,440 Speaker 2: And you know, people are feeling good. They had the 1065 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 2: bounce back game, they won big. Antonio Pierce gave some 1066 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 2: amazing speech. The boys love playing for him. Everyone's feeling good. 1067 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 2: Devonte Adams has one catch. He doesn't care. He's happy, 1068 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:59,439 Speaker 2: right they're winning. Yeah, gotta god, gotta bet the Jets here. 1069 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,280 Speaker 2: I mean these are Can. 1070 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 1: We at least wait and see if they get to 1071 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: a dog? 1072 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can. I'm gonna I'm gonna take the one 1073 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 2: and a half here, but I'm hoping it gets to 1074 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 2: a dog. But no total overreaction by the public. Yes, 1075 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson is terrible. Me and Chad hate betting on him. 1076 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 2: We hate watching him. We hate the experience as it is. 1077 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 2: But you know, we're playing the numbers here. The Jets 1078 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 2: are a better team. The bet the Jets have better coaching. 1079 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 2: The Jets have, you know, a defense that going up 1080 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 2: against this kid, they should get a bunch of turnovers. 1081 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 2: Like this feels like a good time to back the 1082 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 2: Jets team. So it feels good looking at the splits 1083 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 2: here again, another game where the public is all over 1084 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 2: one side. And you know, me and Chad we don't 1085 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 2: blindly fade the public, right we went to and oh 1086 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 2: last week rounding to the public, we had or three 1087 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,920 Speaker 2: and oh, I guess the Chiefs, the Eagles, and the Bengals, 1088 00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 2: all of them were the most bet teams. That's not 1089 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 2: the norm for us. That's not somewhere I want to 1090 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 2: be either. But if the if the numbers line upright 1091 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,959 Speaker 2: and we're getting value on the one side, we don't 1092 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 2: really care what the public is doing. This is one 1093 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 2: where the public is totally overreacting, right. They're all pissed off. 1094 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 2: We said that the Jets are a public dog last night, 1095 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 2: so that means everyone of the Grandmam they lost on 1096 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 2: the Jets last night. They're mad. They're coming on the Raiders. 1097 00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 2: This is another primetime game. Man who knows who knows? 1098 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 2: Comes Sunday. If I convinced, try to put this one in. 1099 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,480 Speaker 2: But because Sunday nights have been good to us, we've 1100 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 2: had a nice run with these Sunday games. If the 1101 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 2: Jets are a dog comes Sunday, this will be in. 1102 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 2: Like I'm telling you people, this will be in. If 1103 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 2: the Jets are a dog. I can't pass on that value. 1104 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 2: But as you sit here right now, don't worry not 1105 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 2: making Simon says, not doing any of that for you people. 1106 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 2: It's just just letting you know I love the Jets. 1107 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 2: In the spot this week. 1108 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,439 Speaker 1: It's going to be Thursday afternoon and me and Matt 1109 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: Mitchell are going to be in fucking Copenhagen, and I'm 1110 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 1: going to be have to to be yelling big balls 1111 00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 1: bet of the week in our Danish studio, and I'm 1112 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 1: gonna have all these people looking at me like what 1113 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 1: the fuck is wrong with that guy?

I'm jealous. I want your life, Jed. 1122 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 1: It's a pretty good life. The Broncos are seven and 1123 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 1: a half point dogs to the Bills. I bet this 1124 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: at seven and a half on the Broncos. Of course 1125 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: she does like what am I missing here? 1126 00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 2: I don't know? Makes me want to take the Bills? 1127 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 2: What is this line? Why are the Bills getting seven 1128 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 2: and a half? Like this is last year? What is happening? 1129 00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 2: Are the books fucking with us? It was the same 1130 00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:02,439 Speaker 2: thing in that Bengals game. It's like it makes no sense. Yeah, 1131 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 2: who were the Bills to be two and a half 1132 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 2: against the Bengals in that game? That was such a 1133 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 2: bizarre line, And it feels the same here where It's like, 1134 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 2: I told you I wanted to fade the Broncos so 1135 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 2: bad last week after they beat the Chiefs and they'd 1136 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 2: won their Super Bowl right first time they'd beat them 1137 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 2: in I don't even know what it was. They'd lost 1138 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,720 Speaker 2: like sixteen times. Yeah, they got lucky. They had a 1139 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:26,040 Speaker 2: bye week, you know. Now they're on the road even 1140 01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 2: more extended rest playing against the Bills. I'll do the 1141 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 2: coward method and I'll just take Bills first. 1142 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 4: Half Simon Hunter, professional coward and be like. 1143 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 2: You know what long layoff for Denver after a big win. 1144 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 2: They'll come out slow. They'll come out sluggish against the 1145 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 2: Bills team that I expect to come out hungry and desperate. 1146 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 2: But the Bills don't got the dogs on defense. That's 1147 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 2: why I don't get this number, Like they don't got Yeah, 1148 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,880 Speaker 2: they don't got the guys I mixed up. So I'm 1149 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 2: not going to fault Chad for jumping right in on 1150 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,880 Speaker 2: the seven and a half, Like I feel like I 1151 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 2: want to do it too. I got no more on 1152 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 2: this game right now, but I'm leaning towards just taking 1153 01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 2: the Bills first half and just being done with this one, 1154 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 2: because seven and a half. Everything in my body screaming 1155 01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:11,960 Speaker 2: take the Broncos. But weird, weird number by the books 1156 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 2: hanging this at seven and a half. 1157 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 1: Guy Russell Wilson has been just good enough. And I 1158 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 1: don't buy the they're going to come out slow theory 1159 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: because that's when that's the only time they're good is 1160 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 1: because well, just. 1161 01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 2: First drive, he's the only time he's good. They're good 1162 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 2: on the first drive and that's it. 1163 01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 1: They're so scripted. And also Sean Payton figured out what 1164 01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 1: to do with this team, like they made a conscious 1165 01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:39,440 Speaker 1: effort and improved on defense, really good coaching. It's not 1166 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 1: just the flukey way, Like he's had another week to 1167 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 1: build confidence, tighten up that defense, and the Bills aren't 1168 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 1: a bit of a free for all right, two and 1169 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: two since that last loss to that since that loss 1170 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 1: of the Jags, unimpressive struggle wins against the Giants and 1171 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 1: the Bucks. 1172 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:56,840 Speaker 2: They're even money right now to make the playoffs. Jet 1173 01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:57,880 Speaker 2: that's how the books view. 1174 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: That's how bad it is Yeah, like this. It's fascinating 1175 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 1: the AFC North and the AFC East, the way things 1176 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 1: have flipped the past couple of weeks. Right we thought 1177 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,160 Speaker 1: the AFC North would be the best division of football, 1178 01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 1: and the last few weeks we're seeing, you know, the 1179 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:20,800 Speaker 1: Bengals and Ravens and the Bills and the Dolphins in 1180 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: the East just sort of creating a little bit. It's fascinating. 1181 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 1: So right now games that could be in our contest, 1182 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 1: and we're gonna talk about this more on Thursday.
