Now can we end the year hot? 12 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: Is the question that's right, And we've got i'll call 13 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: it an outside chance to finish in the money. We're 14 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 2: probably gonna need another four and one week, maybe even 15 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: a five and oher week, but we're in there now. 16 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: There are two weeks left in the draft Kings Pro 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 2: Pick Them Championship, and we have to take a bye 18 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 2: in one of the two weeks and we'll talk about it. 19 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 2: But man, I hate this late I hate this slate. 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: I do not have any game that I'm like, I'm 21 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: really going to pick. So maybe you feel strongly about it, 22 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: will see, But in my mind, man, if you can 23 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 2: convince me that this is not the week to take 24 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: a bye, then I will be impressed. But let's get 25 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: into it. We're gonna go through every game on the 26 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: slate as we always do, and again Matt said, we 27 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: went four and one. Last week. We hit on the 28 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: Rams laying five and a half to the Patriots. Again, 29 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: that was a Thursday night one. Matt tweeted out, I 30 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: hope you were following him again at Sports Talk Matt. 31 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 2: Kudos to Matt who was all over that game last week. 32 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 2: It was like pott it on the table and to 33 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: the extent he broke a peraltism, which is never ever 34 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: bet on a favorite laying five and a half, but 35 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: we did and it worked out. We also hit on 36 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 2: the Bucks slaying six and a half to the Vikings, 37 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 2: the Colts slaying three and a half to the Raiders, 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: and the Ravens laying one and a half to the 39 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: Browns in a pretty entertaining game. The only loss we 40 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: had was the Steelers getting two and a half from 41 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: the Bills, which Matt, I don't know you a minute 42 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: left in the first half, I was feeling really good 43 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: about that. Bet. Yeah, I thought that that was gonna 44 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: be one that we're gonna walk away with. And then 45 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: the second half man, the Bills just totally adjusted and 46 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: the Steelers weren't able to do anything about it. So 47 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 2: four and one whatever. Again, We've got one bye week 48 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: left to go, so we might do it this week, 49 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 2: we may do next week. We'll have to see. But 50 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, Matt. I want to see what you've got, 51 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: So start us off. Let me know, give me a 52 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 2: pick that you're feeling kind of good about this week. 53 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 3: All right, So you know, one of the benefits of 54 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 3: doing these contests is that I'm in a bunch of 55 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: other contests, so I can bring some of the picks 56 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: that I already have locked in or I know that 57 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 3: we're going to take and those contests and bring it 58 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: to our contest. It's kind of how it's worked out 59 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 3: where my bets and the contest picks have kind of 60 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: run similarly. So these are three picks that we're going 61 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 3: to use this week. There's no real particular order for it, 62 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: but we can start with my team because it's my team, 63 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 3: and I think the world is wrong about where the 64 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 3: Dolphins are right now. I think the Dolphins are banged up. 65 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 3: I think it's a rookie quarterback. I'm getting two and 66 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 3: a half points with the Pageots and a massive bounce 67 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 3: back spot Patriots, I believe will win this game outright. 68 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: I'm taking the Patriots plus two and a half. 69 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 2: You know, I like this game, and it was one 70 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 2: of the few that was on my list of like, yeah, 71 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 2: I kind of feel this way. I mean, if you 72 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: anytime you're giving me Bill Belichick versus a rookie quarterback, 73 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: I'm always like, yeah, all right, fire that up. The 74 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: Dolphins are just decimated at the end. I mean, mikea 75 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 2: SICKI did return to practice, but I can't imagine he's 76 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: gonna play. I don't know what's going on with a 77 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: running back situation. I don't think Miles Gaston is gonna 78 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 2: get to play. Devonte Parker is there, He's not at 79 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: one hundred percent. There's no Jaquim Grant. It's just kind 80 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: of a mess. You've got the Patriots coming off a 81 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: pretty embarrassing loss and a long layoff here where they 82 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: can kind of lick their wounds and get back into it. 83 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: Whether or not they're still mathematically alive for a playoff 84 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 2: spot doesn't really matter. I think they're gonna come out. 85 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: But Matt, the one thing is I don't really feel 86 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 2: like I have a great read on this team. I 87 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: feel like you have you know when they're gonna play well, 88 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: you know when they're not. Why do you think they're 89 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 2: gonna play well here? I mean, is it just that 90 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 2: you know, buying lows selling high type of thing or what. 91 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: Well, it's that, but it's won the extra time too. 92 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: It's the fact that I think the Patriots defense, much 93 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 3: like the way that they beat the Chargers, they confuse 94 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 3: rookie quarterbacks like no end. I mean, they beat the 95 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 3: Charges forty five nothing two. I don't think two is 96 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 3: the guy. My biggest fear in this game is that 97 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 3: Ryan Fitzpatrick gets inserted at halftime and the Patriots lose. 98 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 3: So if two was in the game for all four quarters, 99 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 3: if Brian Flores is gonna be this is my guy, 100 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 3: I'm riding to it to the end. And I'm not 101 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 3: gonna do what I did in the Denver game where 102 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: Denver totally befuddled him and then they pulled him out. 103 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 3: I think the same thing happens here. I think he 104 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 3: doesn't have his weapons. If you look at some of 105 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 3: the yarded separations for the receivers, the Dolphins are like 106 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 3: dead last in separation right now, and that's when they're healthy, 107 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: and they're not healthy at all. You got a good 108 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 3: second over the Patriots. You got Look, anytime you tell 109 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 3: the Patriots the year is over, this is where they win. 110 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: This is where they rise up. 111 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 3: And they've already beat in the Dolphins once this year, 112 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 3: so I know, historically speaking, everyone's going to use the 113 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 3: stat that I think it's one in four over the 114 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: last five straight up for the Patriots in Miami over 115 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 3: the last five years, or sorry in December or later, 116 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 3: over the last five meetings. 117 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: I get it. 118 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 3: This is a game the Patriots normally lose. But I 119 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: just think this is a game where you've got too 120 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: many injuries from Miami. They can't move the football on 121 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 3: good defenses, and they rely on their defense to turn 122 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 3: the football over, but mostly it's with interceptions. As long 123 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: as the Patriots don't fumble the football away, I think 124 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: they find creative ways to move the ball on the Dolphins. 125 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: And I think everyone thinks that the Patriots are done 126 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 3: and plus two and a half give me the Patriots. 127 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's again, it's one of the games 128 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: that I have on my yet. All Right, I kind 129 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 2: of like it. I'm not totally against it, which is 130 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: surprising because sometimes I'm like, oh, you know, this is 131 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 2: one where I could roll with and you're like, nah, man, 132 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 2: I'm on the other side. So that's that's something where 133 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: I think we put in the consensus generally split fifty 134 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: five on Miami, but the contentsus spread is one and 135 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 2: a half right now, not two and a half. So 136 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 2: you know, I'm fine with it. I think it's a 137 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 2: good bounce back spot for the Pats. And again I 138 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 2: trust Bill Belichick, although Flores is a fine coach, but here, yeah, 139 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: we don't. We don't love to h we don't, especially 140 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 2: without the weapons. I think it's a decent one. 141 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: I'll start, Oh, wait, so you do have games. 142 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 2: Oh you just want to go, you can go. 143 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't games, So just what games out? 144 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 2: You go with a couple, then you start with yours, 145 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: because it is true like I'm essentially forcing myself to 146 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: pick one or two. But you go ahead with a couple, 147 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 2: and then when you run out, I will throw maybe 148 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 2: a couple of light leans I have if you haven't 149 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: covered them already. 150 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: No, there's three. 151 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: There's three games that the uncomfortable playing. I think this 152 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: new found Mitchell Trubitsky's a good quarterback thing is hysterical. 153 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 3: I think this is like fool's gold to the tenth 154 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 3: degree fools gold. So the Houston Texans are trash. They 155 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: are they are awful, and everyone's like, oh my gosh, 156 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 3: could Triubitsky have a chance to start? Could he be 157 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 3: back next year? This isn't the Vikings are gonna kill 158 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 3: the Bears this weekend. This is this is going to be. 159 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: I think the Vikings are going to wipe the field 160 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: with Chicago this weekend. And because they got something to 161 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 3: play for, the Bear's got nothing to play for. And 162 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 3: the second that you give Tribitsky any love or anything 163 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: of a praise, it's when this dude falls on his face, 164 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,239 Speaker 3: laying three and a half. I don't care Vikings minus 165 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 3: three and a half over the Bears. 166 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: Big So I had five games Matt, five games where 167 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: I was like, I have a lean on these games. 168 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 2: I don't love these games, but I have a lean 169 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: on them. And the rest legitimately fell into these are 170 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: toss ups. If Matt has like a strong feeling on them, 171 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: I'll be able to be talked into it. But not 172 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 2: something where I'm definitely going after and you have picked 173 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: two of the ones where I've had a lean on 174 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: Vikings laying three and a half to the Bears. I 175 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: completely agree. I mean it's I feel like Kirk Cousins 176 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: is sort of this this you know, entity that you 177 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: can solve, that you can be like, No, this is 178 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: a fade Kirk Cousin spot. This is a by Kirk 179 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: Cousins spot. This is more of a fate of the Bears, 180 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 2: which is what you're saying, which I'm completely fine with. 181 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: But I do think that the Vikings are not a 182 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: terrible football team. I don't think Kirk Cousins is a 183 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 2: terrible quarterback. It's just much more of when everybody tries 184 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: to buy into him than I'm like no, no, no no, 185 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: or when it looks like he's a world beater, then 186 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: you're like no, no, no, man, you're done for here. Yeah, 187 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: I agree. I have the Vikings winning this game big, 188 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: at least I lean that way, So I am good 189 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 2: with that one. This is shocking to me that I 190 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 2: had five like lean leans and you're just like coming 191 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: and firing on two of them. So go ahead with 192 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: your third one. If you hit three out of three. 193 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 2: I don't even know what I'm gonna do, but. 194 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: Go ahead, all right, this is a third and this 195 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: is a numbers play, all right. I don't love this, 196 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 3: but Dallas Cowboys are catching three and a half points here. 197 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 3: Dallas is I don't like the Elliott injury, making me 198 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: a little skittish, But I think when you have home 199 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 3: dogs late in the year, I think you got to 200 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 3: take a long, hard look at them and kind of 201 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 3: try to go, Okay, what's the most logical thing that's 202 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: gonna happen. And I think Dallas is in a pretty 203 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 3: good spot here, catching three and a half points at home, 204 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 3: and look, San Francisco can run the football, okay. And 205 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 3: I know people are saying Nick Mullins, and this is 206 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 3: a team on the road. Why is Dallas a three 207 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 3: and a half point dog to anybody at home in 208 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 3: the NFC that's going a losing record like the forty 209 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 3: nine ers. I'll take the three and a half points 210 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: here and take a three point loss to forty to 211 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 3: San fran at home and cover on the hook Dallas 212 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 3: plus three and a half. 213 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 2: I have been on both sides of this game, Matt, like, 214 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 2: I can't get a feel for it. It strikes me 215 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 2: as Dallas is okay so long as they're playing against 216 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: a crappy defense. Right, if they're playing against a decent defense, 217 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: I don't trust that they're able to move the ball. 218 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: The line is completely beat up. Andy Dalton is just 219 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: nothing whatsoever. At the same time, San Francisco is nothing 220 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 2: to write home about, as we saw the What worries 221 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: me a little bit is the fact that we've seen 222 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 2: San Francisco look terrible and then come out the following 223 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 2: week and look pretty decent. Now they've got some injuries here, 224 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 2: They've got no Deebo Samuel, they may have no Rheem 225 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 2: Mostert here. But I don't know, man, I get it. 226 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: This is a week of home dogs, by the way, right, 227 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: there are a ton of home dogs this week. 228 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 3: It's there's only one game in the entire on the 229 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 3: whole slate with two teams with winning records. Yeah, and 230 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 3: you've got a lot of short favorites on the road. Yeah, 231 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: a lot of home dogs. 232 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I don't I'll say this one. I don't 233 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 2: even have a mild lean on it, So I don't. 234 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 2: I don't even think I would be tucked into the 235 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 2: backing Andy Dog. I mean, you know, getting the hook 236 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: is fine. The consensus line right now is three. So 237 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: getting the hook certainly is meaningful, especially at home. But 238 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I feel like I bet against 239 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers when I shouldn't. So it's something 240 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: where i'd put it to the side and like it 241 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,599 Speaker 2: would be like, all right, whatever. I don't have a 242 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: strong feeling on it, So if we run out of picks, 243 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 2: I'd be happy to go with it. But in the meantime, 244 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: I think let's put it to the side for now. 245 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: Let me list the couple of games that you're probably 246 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 2: gonna hate but that I have mild leans on. Okay, 247 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: this one, to me, Matt, seems like the most public 248 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 2: play to the point where after this past week, the 249 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: line seems like it is begging you, begging you, begging 250 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: you to take the Browns against the Giants four and 251 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 2: a half. The Browns like four and a half to 252 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: the Giants. I get that the Browns are beat up 253 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 2: on defense. I get the fact that they just play 254 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: the game that they pour their heart and soul into 255 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 2: and lost, and so they're a little beat up. The Giants, meanwhile, 256 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: coming off a terrible loss last week. But again, I 257 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: don't know if Daniel Jones is gonna play. If he does, 258 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 2: it might even be better because he's so limited right 259 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: now with the hamstring and the ankle. The Giants defense 260 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 2: is okay. The Browns have to keep winning though here 261 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: to remain in the playoffs. I mean, they're gonna make 262 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 2: the playoffs, but to even have a chance at the division. 263 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: With how the Steelers are looking, it just feels like 264 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 2: the Browns are gonna you know, at four and a half, 265 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 2: the contentus lines up to six. I don't know. I 266 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: feel like the Browns, but it feels like a public 267 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 2: play to me. So what do you think of that? 268 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: Well, it's a public play. 269 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 3: But I'll tell you the bag men showed up today 270 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 3: in Vegas for the Browns. The Browns number rocketed here 271 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 3: in Vegas four to six. 272 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: Big big movement. 273 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: Why, bag bag bags of money showed up on the 274 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns. So if you want to go with the 275 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 3: professionals as to what they think is going to happen 276 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: where the large wagers are coming in, it's coming in 277 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 3: on Cleveland. I don't mind this play at all, and 278 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: I like that Giants defense up to a point. But 279 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: I think Kevin Stefanski now has got enough weapons that 280 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 3: he has that offense humming against anybody. You take away 281 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 3: the pass, fine, we'll run down your throat. You want 282 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 3: stack the line, great, Baker's going over the top, and 283 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: he's got guys to pass the football too. I just 284 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 3: think this team for the Browns is playing really well late. 285 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 3: I think Stefanski is either the finalist or the coach 286 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 3: of the Year in the NFL. So I've got no 287 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 3: problem back in the Browns here. 288 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been so impressed with Stefanski and I have 289 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: he was. I have some shares of Coach of the 290 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 2: Year on him. It was twenty to one. Again, not 291 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: coach of the year is kind of a fun bet, 292 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 2: by the way, for futures bet, and maybe we'll talk 293 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: about that next year when we get into it about 294 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: the type of things that you can look at. But 295 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: he really has impressed me, even if I wasn't that 296 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: impressed with the higher Another thing here, which I mean 297 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 2: it's not a huge deal in this type of game 298 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: because the Browns don't have the Odell Beckham junior white 299 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: you know, outside wide receiver at this point. But James 300 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: Bradbury is I don't I don't remember if he actually 301 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: tested positive or close contact. He's a close conduct, but 302 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: I believe he's been ruled out for this game because 303 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 2: even if you're on the list, you need to test 304 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 2: negative for five days and they're not gonna be an 305 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: effort or something like that. So he's out. So I 306 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 2: mean that makes it easier probably for Richard Higgins, which 307 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: doesn't really matter, but he's played great, He's had a 308 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 2: great season this year, and losing him on that on 309 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: the defensive backs, that's that's a tough loss for that team. 310 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: So for me at four and a half, it feels public. 311 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean I I just sometimes I also 312 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 2: feel like, and again maybe it's not that public given 313 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 2: what you're saying, but to me, it just also kind 314 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 2: of feels like it's okay to be public sometimes everything. 315 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a no. 316 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 3: I think actually the public will sit, will shie away 317 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: from this game simply because I think there's some real 318 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 3: public people that love the Giants. 319 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: Really. 320 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Giants have been a pretty popular public play 321 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 3: because I mean, when you watch their defense, I think 322 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 3: a lot of people if you're gonna bet on somebody. 323 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 3: It's Washington and the New York Giants and the two 324 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 3: best teams you know when you watch them at least 325 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 3: from week to week, and they've been cashing tickets. I 326 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: mean that they won four games in a row and 327 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 3: people were coming in them with home you know, with 328 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: with with you know, being. 329 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: Plus money dogs. 330 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 3: And so there are some people in the public that 331 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 3: do like the Giants and Daniel Jones. And it's just 332 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 3: a New York football team too, so you get a 333 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 3: more high, high profile, bigger market aside to it. So 334 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 3: in Cleveland is kind of people kind of laugh at them, 335 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 3: right that they expected Baker to fall in his face 336 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 3: on Monday Night football and they expected, you know that 337 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: the Browns not to rise up into that moment and 338 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 3: they put forty two points up on the on the 339 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 3: you know, Baltimore Ravens. So I'm I'm fine with back 340 00:14:59,160 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: in the Browns there. 341 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. I really like this team, man, I really do like. 342 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 2: Their running game is great. I think Baker's playing really 343 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: really at a high level right now. It's They're fun 344 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: to watch. So yeah, all right, I'm good with that. 345 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: All right, So there's one I have no idea how 346 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: you're gonna feel about this one, Matt, I really don't, 347 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 2: because you are a noted Bills hater, but you will 348 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: back them at the right. 349 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 3: Well, I've already teased this game, so I'm already invested. 350 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 3: So you're taken the Bills. I'm not gonna hate it. 351 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 2: I actually wasn't. I was going to take the Broncos 352 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 2: half boy in Denver. Now I know That's why I 353 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 2: thought you were gonna hate it necessarily. So what if 354 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: you teased it to to what I have? 355 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: Pick? 356 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 2: Oh, to a pick? 357 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: I got it at six, brought the Packers down to two. Okay, 358 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 3: I do like that Saturday two leg teaser coming down. 359 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 3: I'm totally ripping this off from from Austin Gale from 360 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: Profile Football Focus, who gave me, who gave me on 361 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 3: the air, who gave me that teaser? And I loved 362 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 3: it and I tailed it, so I can't. I can't 363 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 3: take it as my own, but I have bet it 364 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 3: that's all right to taking the Bills to a pick 365 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 3: and the and the Packers down to minus two. 366 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do. I do think that the Bills 367 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 2: are going to win this game. But in Denver, man, 368 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 2: it is something where six and a half again, I'd 369 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 2: like it, of course if it was at seven. But 370 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 2: I do feel like, as much as you know, I 371 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 2: don't like Drew Locke and I don't like Denver, and 372 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 2: they're so injured and the Bills are playing at such 373 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: a high level. Again, the one thing I feel like, 374 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: even now, even we could say and you might even 375 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 2: be able to say it in that Pittsburgh game itself, 376 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: is that he's inconsistent and you don't know how it's 377 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: gonna come out. John Brown is out for this game, which, again. 378 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: You know, I hate Josh Allen. 379 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm the captain of the Josh Allen. 380 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: I can't stay. So I'm with you and everything you're saying, 381 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: I'm with you. 382 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 383 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 3: The only thing I'm concerned about is like, what does 384 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: Denver have going for it right now? Maybe what's the motivation? 385 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 3: What's the angle? Who's playing for? 386 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: What? 387 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 3: I mean, what are they getting up for? I mean, 388 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 3: Buffalo is playing for everything right now. 389 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's true. I mean, if you want to 390 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 2: look at something, it is a nationally televised primetime game. 391 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: I mean, well I guess not primetime, right, is it 392 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: four thirty or what the on the East Coast, but 393 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: it's a nationally televised game that they're going to be 394 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 2: playing a good a very good team at home. Chance 395 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: to show something. And again I think you know Buffalo 396 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: is vulnerable. The Steelers couldn't take advantage of it because 397 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 2: their offensive line can't get any push, but they're very 398 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: vulnerable against the run. And I think you're going to 399 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: see a lot of Melvin Gordon, who is playing well 400 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: and now is not going to be suspended because the 401 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 2: hearing was pushed off the next week. Their defense isn't 402 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 2: that great, but again, they have enough weapons to get 403 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 2: by on the passing game. No offense obviously didn't play 404 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 2: less or he played and then was removed because of 405 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 2: the illness Jerry Dudy's good tim Patrick is really one 406 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 2: of the more underrated players right now in the NFL. 407 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 2: So it strikes me as a backdoor cover sort of game. 408 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 2: And again I can't stress enough I don't love this 409 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 2: game like ex then I liked in the games. You know, 410 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: we sort of picked them off, but it strikes me 411 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 2: as a backdoor cover. I do think the Bills are 412 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 2: going to win, so I do like your teaser. I 413 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 2: may actually trail that as well, so. 414 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: That it's a good teaser. 415 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 2: It's a good tea. 416 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's one day. 417 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 3: It's Saturday, so it gives you something on the Saturdays, 418 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 3: and it lets me kind of ignore, not really ignore. 419 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 3: But I got my I got a lot of money 420 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 3: going on this Saturday for college football games, so I'm 421 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: gonna be much more invested in college So just tease 422 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 3: those two games and hopefully just cash it and walk away. 423 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 2: All right, all right, so let's put that game to 424 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 2: the side and let me get to my last one, 425 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 2: which I can't imagine you're gonna be okay with this, 426 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 2: but because of the number. But the Rams laying sixteen 427 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 2: and a half to the Jets in LA, the Rams 428 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 2: are good. We have known this now, Matt for a while. 429 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 2: And you bet them, kudos to you. What did you 430 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 2: bet them to win the division? 431 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 3: Or I bet that's big to win the West when 432 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 3: they are one game behind Seattle at plus two to 433 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 3: sixty five. 434 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, they're a legitimate team. Kudos to you. Know, 435 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 2: I thought when Wade Phillips left on the defense, but 436 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: Staley has really done a good job. Their defense is legitimate, 437 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 2: their offense is good enough, and cam Akers is good. 438 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: The Jets have an okay run defense actually, but I 439 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 2: think Acres will be good enough. And if not, then 440 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 2: I think golf that Jets don't get pressure. That's what 441 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 2: messes up with Goff. I think he's gonna be able 442 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: to pick them apart with Woods and Cup and the 443 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 2: Jets are so abysmal that like a normal number where 444 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: you look at sixteen and a half points, Yeah, that's 445 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: value on the Jets. 446 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 1: Right again on the rams. It's value on the rams. Well, 447 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm with you if if you want to lay this, 448 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: I'm okay. 449 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 3: I I've seen people that I respect say that they 450 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 3: would lay this number up to thirty that they wouldn't 451 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 3: and they aren't even not even kidding, Like they're legitimately 452 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: like they're gonna run the ball and they're going to 453 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 3: just run it and run it and run it and 454 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:26,479 Speaker 3: run it. And the game's gonna be a where very 455 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 3: quickly the Jets are not going to score anything. Yeah, 456 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 3: and they'll probably turn the ball over two or three 457 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 3: times and it's gonna be like a thirty five nothing win. 458 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 2: Right, It's very difficult. I mean again, and you saw Seattle, 459 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 2: Seattle like lives to play one score games like they 460 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 2: do whatever they can to Seattle. You know, won that 461 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 2: game so ridiculously easy. I the Rams have. You know, 462 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 2: there's blood in the water right now. They are. They 463 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 2: are really rolling. They're gonna trying to put away that division. 464 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, it really strikes me as just 465 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 2: a game where they're gonna win by like twenty five points. 466 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: I don't think you can put a line high enough 467 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 3: to be quite honest, we're I mean, like the whole deal. 468 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: I talk about this on the Daily Juice a lot, 469 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 3: but like, what is a line. A line is a 470 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 3: number that the book makers put up so the professionals 471 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 3: will take the dog, right, That's what a line is. 472 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: That's all it ask. 473 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 3: Okay, they're trying to set a number there because the 474 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 3: publics can take a favorite all ways, they all take 475 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: the favorite. So how high can I put the number 476 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 3: up so we get the money coming in on the 477 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 3: other side. And I don't know if they can set 478 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: a number high enough to get the pros to come in. 479 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 2: Here on the Jets, yeah, and it's already moving up. 480 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 2: It's already at seventeen and a half. Just realistically, the 481 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: Jets are one of these teams that you realistically cannot 482 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: back no matter what under any circumstances. And yeah, occasionally 483 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 2: they cover, like and they showed up against the Raiders 484 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 2: that time where we had the Raiders Lenks having and 485 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: a half points. But with this the defense is too 486 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: strong I think for the Rams. Ye, all right, we'll 487 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 2: get it there, let's go through. Then that's it for me. 488 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 2: I'm done. Do you have any others that you have 489 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 2: leans on or you want to just turn that? 490 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: Not really? 491 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 3: I mean I think I have gone back and forth. 492 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 3: I text you before. I don't want to use it. 493 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 3: I'm just making this a proclamation. It's going to be 494 00:20:58,119 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: a bet that I'm making. But I'm taking the Saints 495 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 3: to beat the Chiefs. 496 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, so let's talk about that a little bit, 497 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 2: you like. So the Saints are what getting two and 498 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 2: a half from the Chiefs in casey right. 499 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 3: Which is an awful line, by the way, which is 500 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 3: not which I'm really mad at DraftKings are putting that 501 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 3: line there. That's a joke, cause that line's gonna close 502 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: at three and a half, right, So they put it 503 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 3: at two and a half thinking the money would come 504 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 3: the other way. 505 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. 506 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 3: They thought that Drew Brees was playing and thus everyone 507 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 3: would come crashing in on the Saints. 508 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: So that's why they put it at two and a half. 509 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 3: With this line under three, it's not playable for us 510 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 3: because of that reason. But yeah, I look, I think 511 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 3: this Saints team is going to put together a type 512 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: of performance that the Patriots had a couple of weeks 513 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: ago against the Chargers, where everybody was like, oh, oh, 514 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 3: they're not gonna be able to score, they can't do anything, 515 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 3: and then Sean Payton comes up with a crazy game 516 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 3: plan that takes advantages and exploits everything with the Casey's 517 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,959 Speaker 3: Chief defense can't do. And they're coming off of an 518 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 3: embarrassing loss to the Eagles, and the Chiefs are just 519 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 3: treading water. I mean they much like this, like the 520 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: Steelers will benefit from a loss here before they go 521 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 3: to the postseason. They need to figure things out and 522 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 3: they need to kind of get back and write the 523 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 3: ship a little bit, because I think everything is trending 524 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 3: in the wrong direction for the Chiefs right now and 525 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:10,959 Speaker 3: they don't have a killer instinct. 526 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: They're bored. 527 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 3: They're not playing tight or tough games for four quarters, 528 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 3: and I think that could really burn them. In the playoffs, 529 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 3: come a fourth quarter team that may be able to 530 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 3: rise up and come back on them and knock them out. 531 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 3: So I think they lose this game to the States 532 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 3: on Sunday. 533 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 2: Interesting, Yeah, I mean we talked about it. I don't 534 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 2: know if I can get there. I mean I with 535 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 2: two and a half, I can't get there. I know, Like, yeah, 536 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 2: we talked about it, and the consensus line right now 537 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 2: is at three. I like where your head is at 538 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: with it. And we talk about all the time there 539 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 2: is something missing with the Chiefs, right, I mean even 540 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 2: this last game against the Dolphins, and you actually in 541 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 2: one of the other contests, you had the Chiefs right 542 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 2: over the Dolphins. What was it seven seven and a half? 543 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: Uh seven? 544 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 2: Yes, okay, Yeah, so they they could have put that 545 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 2: game away pretty easily. 546 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 3: And I mean they threw three interceptions in that football 547 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 3: game and they still could have covered and they didn't. 548 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 3: I know, I mean I was just like, I mean 549 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 3: that's why two and the Dolphins they did nothing, and 550 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 3: that with all those turnovers, they should have won that game. 551 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: With all the turnovers, I mean, Chiefs. 552 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 3: Were literally handing them the football game and they couldn't 553 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: take it if they do that with the Saints. 554 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: The Saints are taking it. 555 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's you're making good points. We're 556 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 2: not gonna put in the contest. But I am thinking 557 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 2: about how I will bet it, generally speaking, And yeah, 558 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 2: I was surprised that it was two and a half, 559 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 2: especially after the Saints lost to the Eagles. But yeah, 560 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 2: it's an interesting it's interesting. I'll take a closer look. 561 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,360 Speaker 3: But I'm gonna watch the I'm gonna wait and I'm 562 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: gonna watch the public bet against it, and I'll take 563 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: I'll sprinkle on the money line, but I'll take as 564 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 3: many points as you want to give me here on 565 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 3: the Saints, and I'm hoping to get over three, three 566 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 3: and a half to four, whatever it might be. And 567 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: then you know, look, if it got really stupid, it 568 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 3: won't get there. But it ever got to like six, 569 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 3: then fine, I would tease it down and I would 570 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 3: take the Chiefs. But I think this is a game 571 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 3: where you may need s Sir Patrick Mahomes magic coming 572 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 3: back late, trying to drive this team down the field 573 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 3: to win a football game, and I don't know if 574 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 3: you can do that against the Saints. 575 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: Interesting, all right, Well, I like where your head is at. 576 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 2: I don't have you know, the intestinal fortitude depend against 577 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes at this moment, but I get it. All right, 578 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 2: Let's get to some of the other games here. What 579 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 2: do you think about the Packers are laying eight and 580 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 2: a half to the Panthers in Green Bay. I know 581 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 2: you accuse it down. 582 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, Saturday game. I don't like the number being over 583 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 3: seven there. I think they win the football game. I 584 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 3: think they'll win it by seven. It's it's just it's 585 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 3: a number for me. I don't like that number. I 586 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 3: don't think it's a blowout victory. But I do think 587 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 3: they win the game by seven. 588 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I you know, I it's not Bridgewater 589 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 2: generally speaking. If you're giving Bridgewater a big line, I'm 590 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: always I always like him as the possibility to cover. 591 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 2: But I'm not backing the Panthers. 592 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 3: No, He's Teddy covers man, It's what he does. 593 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 2: I know. 594 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 3: He just he covers big lines like crazy because he 595 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: throws the football around. 596 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: But they're not. 597 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 3: I mean, DJ Moore is out of this game now 598 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 3: in Oh he is in. 599 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 2: He's in. He's okay the team to play, So that 600 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 2: that's also something where that's bi. Yeah, yeah, he's back, 601 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 2: so he's gonna be in the game. But I still 602 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: there's no Christian McCaffrey. 603 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: He's out. 604 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 2: You know, Mike Davi has been a fine film. But 605 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 2: the problem with the Packers is I feel like the 606 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: Packers could just as easily win a game by forty 607 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 2: as they could keep it really close at this point, right, 608 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: So it's hard ever for me to basically be like, well, 609 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 2: there's value. You know, Teddy's gonna cover, because I really 610 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: just I don't have a good sense of when Aaron 611 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: Rodgers is just gonna be like, this is kind of 612 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 2: an f you game I'm putting up. You know, I'm 613 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 2: throwing five touchdo busses, so I'd leave it alone. How 614 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 2: do you feel about the Bucks laying five and a 615 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 2: half to the Falcons in Atlanta? It's your magic paralism, 616 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: So I don't know if you prefer the Falcons or 617 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 2: if you just don't like either side. 618 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: It's a no play. 619 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 3: But I mean it's it's a game where the paral 620 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 3: two team teaser that will happen on Sunday is eyeballing 621 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 3: the Bucks big time if it gets to six, and 622 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 3: I can tease it down. I will use it in 623 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 3: a teaser. I think the Bucks will win the football game. 624 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 3: I think the Atlanta Love is gonna calm down a 625 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 3: little bit this week. But I mean, you know, I 626 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,360 Speaker 3: gotta see injuries. You know, Julio's playing, right. 627 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 2: He's been so out. I think he hasn't been declared out, 628 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 2: but the coach, you know, they said basically earlier in 629 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 2: the week that he is quote week to week and 630 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 2: when you're weak to week in week fifteen, and he's 631 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: not practicing, So I bet he's going to be out, 632 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 2: and I think you can bet it that way. 633 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, So if he's out, I think that I like if. 634 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 3: I just like the Bucks to win the football game. 635 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 3: But there is definitely something wrong with the Bucks. Yes, 636 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 3: and their offense is a is a problem. I think, 637 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: you know, much like what I thought was going to happen. 638 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 3: I thought they'd make the playoffs as a wild card team. 639 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 3: I bet them to win ten games. I think they'll 640 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 3: win ten games. They've got eight need two more wins. 641 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 3: You beat the Falcons twice and you got the ten 642 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 3: wins you need. They got the Lions next week as well, 643 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 3: and I just think that this But when you look 644 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 3: at how they scored. They got a lot of really 645 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 3: good breaks in that football game last week that let 646 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: it become a blowout. Yep, it wasn't so much of 647 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 3: their offense, you know, going up there and throw up 648 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 3: a big number. I mean that Gronk pass interference call 649 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 3: at the end of the half. Yeah, I mean when 650 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 3: have you seen that thing get called? Yeah, Like, nobody 651 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 3: gets that call, and they got it for you know, 652 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 3: score late before half and whatnot. So I'm still not 653 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 3: sold that this team actually likes playing in this offense 654 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: for Bruce arians, but I am comfortable hearing them to 655 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 3: win the football game. 656 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. I'm with you. I don't And again, 657 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 2: the Falcons are decent. You know, their defense is decent. 658 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: They've been playing better over the last several weeks. So yeah, 659 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: I'm with you. It just kind of a stay away 660 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 2: from me. What about the Titans laying ten and a 661 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 2: half to the Lions in Tennessee. 662 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: It's just too much. 663 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, ten and a half for this 664 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 3: Titans team is just like, what, like, I just can't 665 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 3: do it. I think they win the game, obviously, And 666 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 3: this is another game that I may look to teas 667 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 3: as well. If I can get that thing down, you know, 668 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: if I get it down closer to three, I'll be 669 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 3: more comfortable teasing it and taking the Titans. 670 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: But ye, I mean Stafford's playing right, Nope, he's out 671 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: for sure. 672 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: Nope, he's not not either one, not either one. 673 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: We just don't know. 674 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 2: I am. When I'm considering it from a betting perspective 675 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 2: and from a fantasy perspective, I'm assuming he's out. He 676 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 2: hasn't practiced this week. They're going nowhere, he's banged up. 677 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be Chase Daniel. 678 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, then maybe I would consider it, but 679 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 3: it's still double digits, so it's still it's still a lot. 680 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 3: But I mean again, this would be definitely if it is. 681 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 3: If Stafford's out, I'll tease this for sure, this will 682 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 3: be part of my teaser. 683 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 2: But yeah, this is one. Realistically, I don't love it 684 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 2: or anything like that. But I'm actually, well, I don't 685 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 2: love it. If I had to pick a side, it 686 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 2: probably would be the Tits. I mean, just you saw 687 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 2: what they did. Derek Henry's gonna run for two hundred 688 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 2: yards in this come and it's just gonna They're gonna 689 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: be able to do whatever they want to do offensively, 690 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 2: and it's just a matter off. If Stafford is in 691 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 2: then I can see sort of the you know, Stafford 692 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 2: manages to have the back door covers and keep things close. 693 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 2: If it's Chase Daniel who barely throws the ball past 694 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage, I don't know. I'd almost feel 695 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: okay with them laying even the ten and a half. 696 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,959 Speaker 2: It's a big number. It's a big number, but I 697 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 2: think i'd actually probably feel okay with it if it 698 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: were Daniel. But anyway, let's go to the next one. 699 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 2: Colts link seven and a half to the Texans in Indianapolis. 700 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 3: All right, so we know the Texans are done right 701 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 3: and after last week that they're pretty much toast. 702 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: Yep, the Colts will have a monster victory. 703 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 3: I'm just a little concerned that they start believing their 704 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 3: own press clippings in this game. And it's a divisional game, 705 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 3: so over seven and a half is over sevens wide 706 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 3: didn't like it, but I do think the Colts are 707 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 3: going to beat the Texans here, and I do think 708 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 3: I think it's it's a quick game. Run the football, 709 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 3: get out of there with a win, don't worry about 710 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 3: the margin. 711 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you. It's not a game that 712 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: I want to go near. And again, we saw two 713 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 2: weeks ago where we wound up being on the right 714 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 2: side even though we run on the right side, which 715 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 2: you knew because you didn't like that game. I talked 716 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 2: into it and then we went with Then we won, yay, 717 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 2: even though we were clearly the wrong side. I do 718 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 2: think that the Texans are going to be able to 719 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 2: keep this one close. I think the Colts are going 720 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 2: to win for sure, But I do think the Texans 721 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 2: over a touchdown. I just can't because Watson. The Colts 722 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 2: defense is not strong enough to prevent Deshaun Watson from 723 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 2: doing Deshaun Watson things, you know, especially he's got perhaps 724 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 2: Brandon Cook's back, which it looks like he might, so 725 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 2: it's a stay away from me. I agree. This one's 726 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: interesting though, Matt. How do you feel about Washington getting 727 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 2: five and a half from the Seahawks in Washington? 728 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: Alex Smith is out right. 729 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 2: We don't know. But if Alex Smith is out I 730 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: think about it both ways, mad because I do kind 731 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: of have pretty different feelings on the game depending on 732 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 2: who's that quarterback. If Alex Smith is in, I kind 733 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 2: of like Washington. If he's not, I kind of like Seattle. 734 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: I know it's five and a half, but you know, 735 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: is Gibson playing. 736 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 2: No, Gibson's almost certainly not gonna play. 737 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 3: So if Gibson and Smith are out, yes, the other side, 738 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 3: I'm totally comfortable taking the sealess, totally comfortable, So. 739 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 2: I might leave that one then on the side to 740 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 2: say that one's going in if and I think that's 741 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen. Smith may play. He may play at 742 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 2: this point because he's sort of trending up and everything 743 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 2: like that. 744 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 3: But that what's make them in the first half too. 745 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 3: By the way, I don't know he was numbers. Yeah, 746 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 3: his numbers in the first half are horrible. In the 747 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 3: second half, he like, I don't know what happens, but 748 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 3: he just he just starts playing like Joe Montana on 749 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: the second half. 750 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: He's great. 751 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. I love Alex. I mean, I think 752 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 2: this whole story is amazing, and I've actually always liked him. 753 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 2: I've always thought he was kind of an underrated QB. 754 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, this is this is one where if it 755 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 2: is Haskins, and I feel pretty confident Gibson's out. But 756 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 2: if it's if it's Haskins and there's no Gibson, Yeah, 757 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 2: this just strikes you. The defense is legitimate for Washington 758 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 2: without question. But with that offense, even though it's a paratism, 759 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: I would feel okay. 760 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: With doing it. Yeah, it's I don't like it. 761 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 3: I don't like playing it, But given the circumstances, I 762 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 3: think the line would be much different if Alex Smith 763 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: gets ruled out. 764 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't think that line's five and a half. I 765 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: think it's gonna go over seven most right now. 766 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,479 Speaker 2: It's steady at five and a half. That's where it is, 767 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 2: and it's basically on the bed anal lizer. It's split 768 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 2: down the middle, which I think it's fair. I think 769 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 2: five and a half at this point, assuming that Smith 770 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 2: does play, that's a pretty fair line. 771 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 3: That well, yeah, because the defense for Seattle is awful. 772 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 2: Right well, it's Flay. It's playing a little better of late. 773 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 2: It's playing a little better of late now that you 774 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 2: know Adams is back healthy. It's playing a little better. 775 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 2: But I agree, it's not it's not great and Washington. 776 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: I mean the thing about Russell Wilson right now, who 777 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 2: you know is one of the best quarterbacks in the league. 778 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, he's taking a ton of sacks 779 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: at this point. He's making some poor decisions at time, 780 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 2: which is like the anti Russell Wilson. If you're gonna 781 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 2: give me that defense and the pressure they're going to 782 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 2: get on Wilson, you know, it's a little Carson Wentzy 783 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 2: in the way he's like holding the ball way too long, 784 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 2: way too long, and then eventually he's just sacked. Then 785 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: you know, it's something where I think they might be 786 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 2: able to keep the ball close, but again they game close. 787 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 2: But again, if it's Dwayne Haskins, forget it, Like I'm 788 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 2: just not going anywhere near. How about the Ravens length 789 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: thirteen and a half to the Jaguars in Baltimore. 790 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 3: I just talk about letdown spot, right, I mean, just 791 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 3: you're you're asking for the Jags to come out and 792 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 3: cover that line, and that is just a perfect there is. 793 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: Just if you want to talk about the one double 794 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 3: digit line where I'm comfortable taking the thirteen and a half, 795 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 3: it's Jacksonville. I would be comfortable taking that plus thirteen. 796 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 3: If you want a big dog on the card. There's 797 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 3: your big dog on the card. 798 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 2: Hey, you know what, I'm gonna put that as an 799 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 2: maybe actually, just because again, I as you know, Gardner 800 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 2: Minshew is a fun guy. But if it were Glennon 801 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 2: then I would be like, no, it doesn't matter. I 802 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 2: don't care. Like I'm fine with the Ravens. It doesn't 803 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: really matter me. Now they have up, by the way, 804 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 2: all these COVID issues where Hollywood Brown and Miles Boyk 805 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: and are on the COVID list. My understanding is that 806 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: they're just close contacts and they were designated as such 807 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: early enough that they are if they do test negative, 808 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 2: they are going to play on Sunday, And to the 809 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 2: extent that makes a difference, obviously doesn't really matter. The 810 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 2: Jaguars are completely vulnerable to the tight end. It's going 811 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 2: to be a huge game for Mark Andrews. But I 812 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: think Minshew is going to be able to put up points, man, 813 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: because he's just gonna go nuts and run around like 814 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 2: a maniac and be able to sort of keep it close. 815 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 2: He give me thirteen and a half. 816 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, just a back door special, Yes, just a back 817 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 3: door special. 818 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: It we'll put it as maybe. Okay, let's get to 819 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: this one, Matt is really interesting. I've been on both 820 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: sides of this game as I've worked through it, and 821 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: I've kind of dug into it for fantasy purposes. Cardinals 822 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: lank six and a half to the Eagles in Arizona. 823 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 3: This is a really every week there's a game I hate. 824 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 3: This is the game that I hate because everything screams 825 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 3: Cardinals here to me. You're talking about start number two 826 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 3: for a rookie. You've got tape now on Jalen Hurts. 827 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 3: You know what he looks to do. You know, he 828 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 3: doesn't throw the ball all that well down the field, 829 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 3: but he likes to get you into passing situations and 830 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 3: then run and pick up the first down. Cardinals defense 831 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 3: is athletic Buddha Baker and company. They can run, They're fast, 832 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 3: they can run you down. You can run the ball 833 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 3: on them with a big, physical offensive line. Eagles don't 834 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 3: have that. You have to look at the receivers or 835 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 3: the Eagles. They're okay, Miles Sanders in a monster game, 836 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 3: you assume that the Cardinals are going to stack up 837 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 3: to stop the run and not let him have a 838 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 3: big game run in the football and put it all 839 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 3: on Jalen Hurts his shoulders. On the other side, you 840 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 3: got a team and that you got an offense that 841 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 3: has not looked great over the last couple of weeks. 842 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 3: But nice win on the road against the Giants last week, 843 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 3: and Kyler Murray ran a bit more than I thought 844 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 3: he was go I'm going to picked up a couple 845 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 3: of first downs. I mean, this screams Cardinals. But I 846 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 3: feel like it's too public. 847 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 2: I don't have it. I don't have the feel for it. 848 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 2: I really don't. I mean, I like, I think Maray 849 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 2: looks a little healthier lately, Like right, he does, he 850 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: was running a little bit more. I think the Eagles 851 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 2: are so decimated on the events. I think it's going 852 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 2: to be an absolutely monstrous DeAndre Hopkins game. I think 853 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 2: they're going to be able to score. I don't have 854 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 2: a sense yet about Jalen Hurts and what they're going 855 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 2: to be able to do to you know, like, Okay, 856 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 2: now we've seen him, now we know what this is. 857 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 2: They designed a ton of runs form, but he's incredibly athletic. 858 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: When he gets out of the pocket and things sort 859 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 2: of start breaking down. Receivers have a way of getting open, 860 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 2: which is good because the receivers for the Eagles are 861 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 2: not particularly fast, and so you need something to be 862 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 2: able to get them separation. So just a game where 863 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 2: I at one point I talk myself into the Cardinals, 864 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,919 Speaker 2: another point, I talk myself into the Eagles, which means 865 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: I'm talking myself out of the game because I just 866 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 2: don't have a good sense of it. So I think 867 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 2: sort of, I feel like you were if there's a 868 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 2: game where I was just like, I've gotten nothing on 869 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: this game. It's not a game that I really want to touch. 870 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 3: So Doug Peterson's nineteen and three right or something stupid 871 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 3: like that, with backup quarterbacks and not having Carson Wentz 872 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 3: as the starter, like, it's just he's a much better coach. 873 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 3: He calls a better game, the guys respond better, So 874 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 3: there's something to that. I think they hated Carson Wentz. 875 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 3: I think they absolutely hate that guy's guts, and so 876 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 3: they're playing hard for Jalen Hurts, and I think there's 877 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 3: something to be said for that. But cross country on 878 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 3: the road, I mean, I don't know. 879 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I gun to my head, I'm 880 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: taking the Cardinals. 881 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 2: I just I can't tell if Hurts was sort of 882 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 2: a novelty or whether or not he's going to be 883 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 2: able to have this sustain so for fantasy purposes, as 884 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: you'll see, like, I think he's a guy you can 885 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 2: probably rely on because I think he's gonna do enough 886 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 2: of his legs to get out there, whether or not 887 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 2: they're gonna be enough to hang with the Cardinals, who 888 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 2: I think are probably gonna play better offensively given the 889 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 2: injuries to the Eagles and given the fact that Kyler 890 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: Murray is generally getting healthier. It's just it's too tough 891 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 2: for me. It's a stay away last one Steelers laying 892 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 2: twelve and a half to the Bengals in Cincinnati. 893 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: You know this is. 894 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 3: I the line just is too heavy for me with 895 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 3: this Steelers team right now, just because of where Ben 896 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 3: is and what the Steelers have looked like. I mean, 897 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 3: they couldn't move the football the way that they should 898 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 3: have against the Bills. I think something's wrong with Pittsburgh 899 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: to be quite honest, if I had, if I had 900 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 3: to bet, I'd take the points. 901 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I despise this game as well. There is something 902 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 2: wrong with the Steelers for sure. I mean they can't 903 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: they can't run the ball, but part of that is 904 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 2: the fact that they've absolutely their offensive line gets zero push. Yeah, 905 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: they can't. Ben is desperate to not get sacked, so 906 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,479 Speaker 2: that every throat. 907 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: Do you think he's hurt? 908 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: I think that Ben how old is Ben thirty eight thirty? 909 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 2: However old Ben is? Ben is old and has taken 910 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: a beating in his whole life. So I don't think 911 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 2: he's one hundred percent. I think he's good enough to 912 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 2: get out there, but I think that they are desperate 913 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,280 Speaker 2: to protect him and what they're. 914 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 3: Doing with the one thing that it was difference between 915 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 3: Roethlisberger and Brady. Brady didn't lose the velocity on the football. 916 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, Brady always had the RPMs. 917 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 3: He always could get the ball out fast, and that's 918 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 3: what saved his bacon, right he could. Those were lollipop 919 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 3: throws against the Bills. Yeah, there was nothing behind those throws. 920 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 2: I think the elbow injury that he suffered last year 921 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,479 Speaker 2: at his age probably took took the fastball away. 922 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 1: Yeah. 923 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 2: Really, what is right? And he's underthrowing guys right like 924 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 2: you saw. Yeah, I think two weeks ago where you know, 925 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 2: James Washington had the cornerback beat and Ben just couldn't 926 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: get it there. He couldn't get it there, and they 927 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: want to get the ball out. So this is I'm 928 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,959 Speaker 2: I'm definitely worried about the Steelers long term against the Bengals, which, 929 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 2: by the way, it might even be not that Brandon 930 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 2: Allen there's anything to write home about, but it might 931 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 2: be Ryan Finley. In this game, we were like, oh 932 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,959 Speaker 2: my god, the defense is going to destroy that team. 933 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 2: But I don't know what. No, I just don't want 934 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 2: to do it. If you're telling me that I have 935 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 2: to take the Steelers against anyone laying double digits, I'm 936 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 2: just probably not doing it. At the same time, I 937 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: can't go with the Bengals like they're just they're just abysmal. 938 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 2: They're just a terrible football team and they're poorly coached. 939 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 2: And you have called this forever, but it's just I 940 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 2: can't back. 941 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: How did Zach Taylor get that? You you have you. 942 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 2: Have been like banging that drum since I first. 943 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: Make because I covered the dude in college. Yeah, I was. 944 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 3: I was there when he was at Nebraska. I was 945 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,839 Speaker 3: covering the Huskers, and at no point in time did 946 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 3: I ever hear anyone say that, like, you know, that 947 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 3: Zach Taylor guy, he'd be a good coach. 948 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 2: Do you know, Matt that now I'm remembering this as 949 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,959 Speaker 2: we're talking here. The first time I heard you mentioned 950 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 2: that was when you were a guest last year on 951 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 2: the Betting Pros NFL podcast and we're talking about the 952 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: Bengals and you had this mini tirade against Zach Taylor. 953 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 2: That's that's so funny that it's just coming. 954 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 3: He's just he's just awful. He's just he never should 955 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 3: have gotten that job. And just because he had, like 956 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 3: he breathed the same air as Sean McVay, that was 957 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 3: good enough for the Bengals. Okay, thirty six year old 958 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 3: quarter and ex quarterback coach, let's let's hire him as 959 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 3: the head coach. And it's like, you know, look, he 960 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 3: got Joe Burrow and that's a huge feather in his 961 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 3: cap to have Joe Burrow. And so you're gonna win 962 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 3: games and look decent with Joe Burrow. But your real 963 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,879 Speaker 3: coaching acumen comes out when you don't have superstars. 964 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: And look what the Bengals look. 965 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 2: Like now and again they I mean, look, their offensive 966 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 2: line is terrible, but I mean things like you know, 967 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 2: it's silly things like Giovanni Bernard. And maybe I am 968 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 2: a little angry about this because of fantasy purposes and 969 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 2: where I might have had him ranked. But the idea 970 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 2: that Gio Bernard fumbles on the first play and then 971 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 2: he's benched until the second half, like and then you know, 972 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 2: Trevion Williams fumbles but he gets back. It's just little 973 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: things like that, just I feel like, you know, it's tough. 974 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 2: The season without Burrow, the season certainly gotten away from them. 975 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: I can't back them, but I really don't want to 976 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 2: back the Steelers. No double datus, all right, So here's 977 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 2: where we are at. We like the Patriots getting two 978 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 2: and a half from the Dolins. We were both good 979 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 2: with that. We liked the Vikings laying three and a 980 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 2: half to the Bears. So those are two games that 981 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 2: we were both like, yeah, okay, we can lean that way. 982 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 2: We kind of came around on the Browns laying four 983 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 2: and a half to the Giants, and we kind of 984 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 2: like the Rams laying sixteen and a half to the Jets. 985 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 2: We've got three other games that I think we were 986 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 2: basically talking through, you like the Cowboys getting three and 987 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 2: a half from the forty nine ers. We might like 988 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,760 Speaker 2: the Seahawks laying five and a half to the Washington 989 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 2: football team if both Gibson and Alex Smith are out. Yeah, 990 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 2: and we kind of maybe could see ourselves taking the 991 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 2: Jaguars getting thirteen and a half points from the Ravens. 992 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 2: Is that fair? 993 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 3: Oh? 994 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 2: Yeah?

The Cowboys plus 997 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 2: three and a half or no? 998 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 3: I would prefer if Smith and Gibson are out, I 999 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 3: would prefer to take Seattle. 1000 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 2: That's going to be the game. Then that's fine. Now 1001 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 2: what if they're in? Do you prefer the Cowboys plus 1002 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 2: three and a half from the Niners or the Jaguars 1003 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 2: plus thirteen and a half from the Ravens. 1004 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: WHOA, that's a really good question, and again. 1005 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 2: We're not locking ourselves in. 1006 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: I would say the Cowboys, don't know. 1007 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 3: I mean, the Cowboys are more likely because they're at 1008 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 3: home and they're catching three and a half, and I 1009 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 3: like home dogs at plus three and a half. 1010 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: Okay, that's fine. Again, that's not a game. This is 1011 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,240 Speaker 2: more of a in a slate where I am like, man, 1012 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,759 Speaker 2: I don't really know. I've talked myself into both sides 1013 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 2: of that Cowboys forty nine Ers game, so that's fine 1014 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 2: with me. Cowboys plus three and a half. Okay, So 1015 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 2: those are the unofficial picks here for our uh for 1016 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: the contest and for the week.
