Game 36 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 3: wasn't the most exciting wild card weekend, but it was 37 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 3: very profitable for us.

I think we got the best possible outcomes 43 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 3: for this weekend as far as came out of last weekend. 44 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: So I think they we'll have some really good games 45 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: this weekend and then assuming the Ravens win, whoever comes 46 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 3: out of Bills chiefs that the AFSC Championship game should 47 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 3: be awesome. Seven games left, let's cherish them. Close out 48 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 3: the year strong and who cares what happened last week? 49 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: What's fun? Some winners for this week all. 50 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: Right, let's do it, and we'll open up the six 51 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: pack once again. 52 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: Sides, totals, props, whatever only thing is, we have to 53 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: have at least one side, So we'll do that again. 54 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 1: Seventy three sixty six year up, and I'll just give 55 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: the lines for each of the four games up top. 56 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: There's one game that's not going to be in a 57 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: six pack. 58 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that after the six pack, but still 59 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: want to give everybody the lines as we record this 60 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: in the middle of the week. Houston at Baltimore Ravens 61 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: favored by nine and a half the total forty three 62 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: and a half. We bet MGM Packers at the Niners 63 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: Niners favored by nine and a half the. 64 00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 2: Total fifty and a half. 65 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: The Bucks at the Lions Lions favored by six and 66 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 1: a half of the total forty eight and a half. 67 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 2: And then Chiefs at Bill's. 68 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: Bills favored by three of bet MVM of the total 69 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: forty five and a half. All right, stut, you're up first, 70 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,119 Speaker 1: Let's crack open our divisional round six. 71 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 2: Back Thursday for action. Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. 72 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 3: All right, for my first pick and the first overall 73 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: of the Divisional Round weekend six pack. I'm going with 74 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens first half minus six and a half 75 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 3: at home against the Houston Texans. I'll start off by saying, 76 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: just unbelievable performance by the Texans last week. Stroud was awesome, 77 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 3: Flacco was not. But you know, I think it was 78 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: a little bit of recency bias in this line. I 79 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 3: think it should be at least ten. But overall, I'll 80 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 3: explain why I like the first half a little bit 81 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 3: more than the sidespread as I go on here. But 82 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: I went into last weekend saying that the Browns are 83 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 3: extremely overrated. Like the Browns are, I don't know why 84 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 3: everyone's colling in love with them. It's still thirty eight 85 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 3: year old Joe Flacco. They played a bunch of backups 86 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 3: to the end of the year, and their defense, which 87 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 3: was banged up, is not the same defense that it 88 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 3: was ever in the year, and their defense on the 89 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 3: road again get shredded as it did all year. They 90 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 3: finished nine and zero on the season or ten and 91 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 3: zero on the season in road overs, which is pretty crazy. 92 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: But so it's not like I adjusted Houston astronomically after 93 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: that game. It's still one game. And this is a 94 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 3: Texans team specifically from a defensive standpoint. And look their offense, 95 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: love Stroud, I love that their game. They were aggressive 96 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: growing early, which I liked. But this is a white 97 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 3: receiver room. Now doesn't have Noah Brown, doesn't have Tank Dell, 98 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: and now you're going up against the best defense in 99 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: the NFL with that played a top five schedule this year, 100 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 3: and there's really no weaknesses here. I think that. Look 101 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 3: if the Ravens off the bye well rested, whereas the Texans, 102 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 3: I mean you're dealing with injuries, not only wide receivers 103 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 3: piking on the defensive end. They're not fully healthy in 104 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 3: the secondary, and now you have questions at defensive end 105 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: Will Anderson. They're just not fully healthy. I'm assuming that, 106 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 3: I mean Hughes might not play, but I'm assuming Anderson 107 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 3: and Gernardo are going to play. But they didn't practice today. 108 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: This defense isn't fully healthy. And you know, outdoor team 109 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 3: indoor team going outdoors and what's going to be frigid temperatures. 110 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 3: But from a matchup perspective, Ravens and Harball always goot 111 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: off of a bye this and I think that's super 112 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 3: beneficial for this staff and checking the coordinators have been 113 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 3: so good. What do I think that we'll see here 114 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: as a result. I think that you'll see the Ravens 115 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: come out pretty pass heavy early on. That's the weakness 116 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 3: of this Texans defense by far. And I think that 117 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: you're gonna see on defense you're gonna have I mean, 118 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: you know you have Mike McDonald has had weeks to 119 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 3: prepare for this game. You're gonna have a lot of 120 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 3: different looks to confuse Stroud, different pressures. I think you're 121 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 3: gonna go a little bit man heavier, I mean zone. 122 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: Stroud absolutely shreded zone throughout this year. Wasn't nowhere close 123 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 3: to his good versus man or under pressure, which I 124 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 3: think we'll see both of this year. This week. I 125 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 3: think we'll see, you know, a lot of men on 126 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 3: the outside, but also simulated pressure, some different blitzes just 127 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 3: to confuse him into a mistake or two. And then 128 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson against his defense if they come out pass heavy, 129 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 3: it's a defense that doesn't blitz a lot. And that's 130 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 3: really been one of the ways that you could I mean, 131 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 3: Lamar's numbers against anything have been great this year, but 132 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 3: he struggled at times against the blitz again zone, which 133 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 3: the Texans run a bunch of. I mean, it's been 134 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 3: ridiculous what Lamar has done against own seventy one percent 135 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 3: completion rate, zero point one EPA per dropback, fifty one 136 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 3: percent success rate, which is just stupid. Also has a 137 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 3: much higher success success rate and scramble rate. Again, so 138 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 3: people think like, oh, if you play zone, that'll stop 139 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 3: Lamar from scrambling, but he's just so fast it doesn't matter, 140 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: right like against some other mobile quarterbacks, if you play man, 141 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 3: you're gonna get burnt by the scramble. But you know 142 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 3: you got Mark andrews now full practice. He's back. So 143 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 3: I think this Ravens offense is gonna come out with 144 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 3: a really good game plan. I think they're going to 145 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 3: confuse Stroud early. And this Ravens team, Look, if you 146 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 3: just look at the body of work for each team, 147 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 3: the Texans in their last ten games have faced one 148 00:07:55,080 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 3: playoff quarterback Joe Flackup. That was it. This is a 149 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: team that played one offense all year that finished in 150 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 3: the top ten in EPA per play That was the 151 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 3: Ravens in Week one of a new scheme. Yeah, offense, 152 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: what we saw how much better the offense got, you know, 153 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 3: even just after the first few weeks, and they lost 154 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: that game twenty five to nine. It didn't face a 155 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 3: single top ten offense the rest of the way, didn't 156 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 3: really face many mobile quarterbacks. I mean, you had Kyler 157 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 3: who ran pretty well against them in a close game, 158 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: but that was for the Cardinals. Meanwhile, the Ravens against 159 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 3: playoff teams this year six and two. If you remove 160 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: the backup game at the end, beaaten them by an 161 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 3: average of fifteen points per game. Better special teams here, 162 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 3: and you have two cash cows in Lamar and Harball 163 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 3: in the first half past twenty years. Most profitable quarterback 164 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: in the first half against the spread Lamar Jackson fifty 165 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: twenty five and two sixty seven percent. He's covered by 166 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 3: three points per game on average over seventy five games 167 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 3: sample size in the first half three points and then 168 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 3: Hardball first half. Most profitable coach against the spread up 169 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 3: in the past twenty is one forty eight, one h 170 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: three and eight. Talking to two hundred fifty games sample 171 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 3: size fifty nine percent. You'd say, okay, there's some you 172 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: know overlap there. Remove Lamar from Harball, Harball ninety eight 173 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 3: seventy eight and six against the spread, fifty six percent 174 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 3: against the spread in the first half. You know, for 175 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: example like seven and two with Huntley starting in the 176 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 3: first half. What that speaks to is you have that 177 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: Lamar You know, first of all, really good staff. Usually 178 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: they're really well prepared, even more so now with extra 179 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: time off and the healthier team. And then you have 180 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 3: that Lamar adjustment of like getting used to his speed. 181 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 3: H You know, for a team that's not like they're 182 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: in their division, they haven't seen many mobile quarterbacks. The 183 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: last time I saw them was in Week one. To 184 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 3: defense that's banged up. It's a good matchup for the 185 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 3: Ravens offense, and the Ravens defense can kind of cater 186 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,599 Speaker 3: what they do each week based on the matchup, so 187 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 3: I think they can force Stroud into some mistakes. And 188 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 3: it's just not a fully healthy wide receiver room. I mean, 189 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: I would love to see Stroud with like Dell Brown 190 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 3: Collins and his full arsenal weapons here go up against 191 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 3: the Ravens d. But I think you get a focused 192 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 3: Ravens effort after some time off, and there's some matchup 193 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: advantages here, and then just the past success of Lamar 194 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 3: and Harball in the first half. I like them anything 195 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 3: under a touchdown in the first half. 196 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: How do you feel like the second half is going 197 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,599 Speaker 1: to play out between these two teams? Because you know, 198 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: first half obviously you're technically paying attacks because you know 199 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: the full game line is nine and a half. 200 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 2: The first game wine six and a half. 201 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I played five and a half. It's 202 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 3: gone up. I still like it at six and a half. 203 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 3: But the Ravens have a tendency to like kind of 204 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 3: play with their food late. You know, then they say, okay, 205 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 3: let's rely just on our defense, and it's still stroud. 206 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 3: I could just see a Texans back door pretty easily 207 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 3: in this game. And there's just no the playoffs, there's 208 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 3: no reason to win by margin. You're gonna have the 209 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 3: Chiefs or Bills next week. It's let's keep everyone healthy. 210 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 3: This total is coming down a bit, it's gonna be 211 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 3: freezing cold. I'm probably gonna play some Ravens for the 212 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 3: full game as well. I mean, I know for a 213 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 3: certainly am at under ten. Yeah, I like both, but 214 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: that's those are some of the reasons like the first 215 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 3: half instead all. 216 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 2: Right, well, I'm gonna stay in the same game. 217 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,719 Speaker 1: For my first pick in the second overall of the 218 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: division round six pack, I'm going Devin Singletary under sixteen 219 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: and a half receiving yards, And I think this might 220 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: be a little bit of a market over correction for. 221 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 2: The fact that Noah Brown went on ir No. 222 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: But he didn't really play much in that last game anyway, 223 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 1: and you could has had receivers out all year. That 224 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily mean they're gonna target their backs more in 225 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: this game. Segretary has had thirteen or fewer receiving yards 226 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: in fifteen of eighteen games. 227 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 2: That's eighty three percent. 228 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: So I think the reason books bumped them up is 229 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: a combination of, you know, the receivers being banged up, 230 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: but also so he's been playing over the last two 231 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: weeks on about seventy two percent of the team's half snaps. However, 232 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: last week, you know, it was a blowout, and in general, 233 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: Singletary he'll play a little more when they're leading because 234 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: he's not their third down, hurry up kind of back. 235 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 1: So in a game scrip where you're projected to be 236 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: down by more than one score, it's going to be 237 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: more of a goon Ba Wallet who plays two minute, 238 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: who plays third down. Only three of Singletary's thirty eight 239 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 1: targets eight percent have come on third or fourth down 240 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: this year, and only eight percent have come with less 241 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: than two minutes to go in either half. And then 242 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: you got Rokwan Smith is one of the linebackers he 243 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,599 Speaker 1: grades out top five in coverage at PFF for the 244 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,239 Speaker 1: eighty four point one grade, fifth out of eighty qualified linebackers. 245 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: Patrick Queen fifteenth out of eighty qualifiers with a seventy 246 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: six point one coverage grade. And again, Singletary's only gone 247 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: over this a goin over thirteen three of his eighteen 248 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: games this season. So I think this line is a 249 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: little bit high. I'm sure it'll come down. I would 250 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: bet the under two thirteen and a half, so hopefully 251 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: by the time we're listening to this you could still 252 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: get that. But I think this number is too hot, 253 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: because again, if Houston is trailing and it is garbage 254 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,599 Speaker 1: kind I think you're gonna see a lot more a 255 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: goudon bowawe. That's kind of what happened in the first 256 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: game Houston lost by sixteen. Damian Pierce at this point 257 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: was a starter but if you just look at him 258 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: and Singletary combined, Singletary didn't get any targets in that 259 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 1: game because he was the number two back behind Pierce. 260 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: But here's three targets, two catches nine yards. Bowen, who 261 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: was the ogoon bowle roll, had four targets, three catches 262 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: for eighteen yards. 263 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: So that's what I kind of would expect this week. 264 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: I think, you know Singletary, if you have to pick 265 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: between him and Schultz, it's going to be him stayed 266 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: in the block a little bit more in this game. 267 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 2: If the pass russ given him an issue. 268 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: They do of them screens about two thirds of his 269 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: games he has twelve screens, but he only averages five 270 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: yards of catch on screen passes. 271 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 2: So that's not going to destroy us, obviously unless they 272 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 2: break on. But that's true about any catch. 273 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: So like Singletary under sixteen and a half receiving yards 274 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: for one number one pick, let. 275 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 3: Me move on to my second pick and the third 276 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 3: overall of the Divisional Round Weekend six pack. I'm going 277 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 3: to go with a Tampa Bay Buck over longest receptions. 278 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 3: It's not Kate Oughton, unfortunately, it is Chris Godwin over 279 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 3: twenty one and a half yards. I'm playing him over 280 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: yards too. But let me break this down. I actually 281 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: think people that are waiting for the autumn that Aughten 282 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 3: last week helps this year. And the reason of that 283 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 3: is just like, oh wow, Kate Aten had a huge game. 284 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: He's not that good, but you know, so the Lion's 285 00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 3: got to be a little bit more cognizant of them 286 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: after watching that, right, It's like, all right, maybe we 287 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: to pay a little bit more attention. But mainly this 288 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 3: is there's two reasons why I really like this one. 289 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 3: The Bucks last week, the huge advantages going up against 290 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: the Equals secondary, you can't cover. Anybody was afraid that. 291 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 3: You know, at times they get a little to run 292 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: heavy and they're not a good running team. They came 293 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 3: out and just threw the ball. Seventy eighty percent neutral 294 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 3: pass game rate, Yeah, very high. And then if you 295 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: look back at the first matchup, the scores very misleading 296 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 3: because Baker Mayfield missed a ton of wide I'm talking 297 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 3: wide open. I think he missed three wide open guys 298 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 3: way downfield thirty three. I think almost a third of 299 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield's throws we're twenty plus yards downfield, that's as 300 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 3: high as you know you'll see in any game of 301 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 3: any quarterback. So they were throwing it downfield, so I 302 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: have a lot of confidence that they're going to come 303 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 3: out with the pass that game script. Also, they're underdogs here, 304 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 3: so the most likely scenarios are gonna be playing from behind. 305 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 3: But I'm confident they're going to be throwing it a lot. 306 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 3: And you know they're going up against a line secretary 307 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 3: that's given up the fourth most yards to receivers. But 308 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 3: this is all you know. This game is also indoors. 309 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield looked healthier. Bucks play a lot of games outdoors. 310 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 3: Is a fast track. The other thing is this is 311 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 3: mainly a fade of Bildor, who I think is one 312 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 3: of the worst corners in the league. I've said it 313 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 3: since he came into the league. He's allowing twenty two 314 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 3: zero point eight yards per reception. The next worst you 315 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: just take a minimum one hundred one hundred covered snaps. 316 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 3: It's been one hundred and fifty one corners who have 317 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 3: played one hundred covered snaps this year. The next worst 318 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 3: is seventeen point seven. He's five yard almost five five 319 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 3: five over five yards worse than the next worst corner 320 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 3: he's he's it's burnt consistently. There's gonna be opportunities for 321 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 3: Godwin to explos this. Why do I think it's Godwin. Well, 322 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 3: there's one of two things that's gonna happen here. You 323 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 3: might have Sutton shadow Evans. They've used something as a 324 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 3: shadow sometimes. I don't know if they're gonna do not. 325 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 3: You never really know what the game plan is going 326 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 3: to be. But that's one option. If that's the case, 327 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 3: you're gonna have Vildor on Godwin. If they don't, then 328 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 3: you'll have Vildor on the left side. And that's where 329 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 3: Godwin lines up more often when he goes out wide 330 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 3: and his slot snaps have gone down the past couple 331 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 3: of weeks. He's also I think he's gone over this number. 332 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 3: You know, he's had catches of at least twenty and 333 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 3: a half yards or at least twenty one and a 334 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 3: half I should say fifteen out of eighteen games this season, 335 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 3: so not quite every game. But like I said, this 336 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 3: is a bad past eight. This is indoors the game 337 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 3: scripture favor, and I expect them to come out be 338 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 3: very past Seavy. Baker Mayfield's also healthy and he's going 339 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 3: up again. He's gonna get a lot of matchups against 340 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 3: what i've is gonna be one of the worst corners 341 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: in the league. The safety help isn't great either, So 342 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 3: I think that there's gonna be plenty of opportunities. And 343 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 3: I like Godwin over yards too, but there's just there's 344 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 3: gonna be multiple opportunities for him to break one he 345 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 3: might get. You know, he could have a sixty seventy 346 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 3: yard broken reception, and I think he's gonna get the 347 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 3: more favorable matchups more often. Bucks are gonna come out 348 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 3: pass heavy here, so yeah, and maybe a little bit 349 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 3: more attention with the safety dot maybe that helps. The 350 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 3: safety just hesitates a little bit. But I like Godwin 351 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 3: to have a big day here. Do you have any 352 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 3: thoughts there? 353 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I think, and it's going to actually 354 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 2: relate to my next prop. 355 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: But I think the key is Gobrin has played less 356 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: slot snaps as of Lady is lining up more outside, 357 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: and I think the really the strongest, you know, Lions 358 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: pass defense. When you talk about wide receivers, it's gonna 359 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: be in the slot because you got a branch there. 360 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: I guess CJ. 361 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 1: Gardner Johnson, you could put there like you have more 362 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: options where I think the outside is really. 363 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: You know where your weakness is. So do you know, 364 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 2: I'll talk about the Bucks. I do agree. 365 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: I think the Bucks have some matchup advantages throwing the football. 366 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I think when you're looking at God, 367 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: when he's the guy that kind of stands out in 368 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: this matchup, I could still. 369 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 2: Have a good game. 370 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 3: You know, you know, last week against a team that 371 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 3: cannot cover tight ends at all all, it's like the 372 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 3: Lions are great. But I mean the way that the 373 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,479 Speaker 3: Eagles or the roster was the end of the year 374 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 3: with Patricia Law, I mean, I got twenty and a half. 375 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 3: It's like, you know, it's like thirty one. Now after 376 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 3: last week, You're you're definitely playing paying a premium on 377 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 3: outon But I think I think he definitely could have 378 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 3: another good game. 379 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: Well, let me get right into my next pick, because 380 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: it's going to kind of be the inverse of that, 381 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: you know, paying there is a premium right now on 382 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,959 Speaker 1: a guy. And for my second pick, the fourth over 383 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: all of the Divisional round six pack, I'm going Trey 384 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: Palmer under twenty and a half receiving yards and I 385 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: think you're paying a premium here if you're looking about 386 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: the over on Palmer. Obviously, he had that great fifty 387 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: six yard touchdown, a shout out to Nick Giffin, who 388 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: was on his anytime touchdown, and I know made a 389 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: lot of people a lot of money with that hit. 390 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: But when you look at what Trey Palmer's been doing, 391 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: Number one, he's been playing fewer slot snaps and that 392 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: affected just his overall playing time. Last week, he ran 393 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: hero out on a season low thirty three percent of 394 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: team dropbacks, David Moore a season high forty two percent. 395 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: So we were kind of watching that game and I 396 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: was saying to our guy, Matthew Trevy, it looked like 397 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: more kind of overtook Palmer a little bit in the 398 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: game plan, and it could be a one week thing. 399 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: But even if you look at the entire season, Trey 400 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 1: Palmer has been under twenty twenty yards, held the twenty 401 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: yards or last in ten of his eighteen games, twenty 402 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: one yards or less in eleven of his eighteen games. 403 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: And now you're looking at a situation where you know 404 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: Palmer is still going to run, you know, forty to 405 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: fifty percent of us snaps in the slot, so he'll 406 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: still face you know, their toughest corner and branch a 407 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: good amount. But he could just go back to that 408 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 1: same snap rate that he had last week, and if 409 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: he doesn't get that fifty six yard or he finishes 410 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: the game with no catches on you know, no catches 411 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: for no yards in that game on one target. So 412 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: I think this is a good time to sell high 413 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: on Palmer. You know, big plays are volatile, and even 414 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: though he hasn't been playing in the slot quite as much, 415 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: he still has a single digit averaged up to target 416 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: in seven of his last nine games. Earlier in the 417 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: season that was about fifty to fifty whether you would 418 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: have you know, a dot over under ten for the 419 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 1: season is average. 420 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 2: A dive is actually a eleven. 421 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: So this is another one where yeah, you could get 422 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: hurt by a big play, but unlikely to hit a 423 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: big play like that two weeks in a row, and 424 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: David Moore has kind of cut into Palmer's role a 425 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: bit and more had a good game too, you know, 426 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: but it wasn't just Palmer, you know, paulm obviously took 427 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: advantage of just terrible Philly tackling and angles and all 428 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: that stuff on that on that fifty six yarder. But 429 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: for the season, this is a plus ev bet, and 430 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: for this game, I think it's even more because you 431 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: have the built in upside I guess you could call 432 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: it of you know, Palmer playing on well under fifty 433 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: percent of the pass snaps yet again, and then on 434 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: top of that, I think the market is a little 435 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 1: bit low on the Bucks and so there's a better 436 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: chance I think for positive game script than the line 437 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: is kind of indicating too. So that's actually worth it 438 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: could be worth you know, a yard or two as well, 439 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: because you're expecting maybe a little bit less passing in 440 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: garbage time or just passing period. Really in this game, 441 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: if the Bucks are at the line that I think 442 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: they should be at in the market, So give me 443 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: Trey Palmer under twenty and a half receiving yards against 444 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. 445 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna kick out God when even more 446 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 3: to the than they have been recently. And a majority 447 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 3: of Palmer slot at snaps have come in the slot 448 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 3: this year and it's not like an overwhelming majority like 449 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 3: we just talked about that that's where you get the 450 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 3: best from a Detroit perspective, the best cover options going 451 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 3: up against him, and I think that he might. You know, 452 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 3: if he is in there, if they're going to give 453 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 3: even a higher percentage of snaps to Goblin on the outside, 454 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 3: then you know he's not going to have favorable matchups 455 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 3: as well in the slot. So that could add to 456 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: it as well. All Right, For my third pick in 457 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: the fifth overall of the Divisional Round Sunday six pack, 458 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: I'm going to go to San Francisco forty nine ers 459 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 3: nine and a half against the green Bay Packers. I 460 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 3: think that there's a little bit of recency bias here 461 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 3: for what green Bay looked like last week. Jordan Love 462 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 3: has been amazing. We've talked about it, how good he's 463 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 3: been since week eleven. He was great last week as well. 464 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 3: We were all on the package last week. But this 465 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 3: is a Green Bay team. Can we remember that the 466 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 3: defense is still horrendous. This is not a good defense 467 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 3: in any stretch. And I talked about this last week. 468 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 3: We both were on the package. Would have been one 469 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 3: of my picks in the six packer was one of yours. 470 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: I actually kind of liked a little bit of the 471 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 3: matchup for the green Bay defense because Dallas hasn't run 472 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 3: the ball efficiently all year, and that's not going to 473 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 3: be an issue with San Francisco, the best rushing offense 474 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,479 Speaker 3: in the NFL. Against this Green Bay d that vulnerable 475 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: against their run. They can't cover the middle of the field, 476 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 3: They can't cover backs, can't cover tight ends, they can't 477 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 3: cover the slot. All of the ingredients that you would 478 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,239 Speaker 3: want when you're not when you're about to face San 479 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 3: Francisco off extra rest, extra preparation. I'm sure the script 480 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 3: is going to be great for San Francisco. They're also 481 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: going to be the healthier team than we'll rest the team. 482 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 3: They should get Armstead back, almost positive, the're gonna get 483 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 3: Armstead back on the defensive line. Now, you finally have 484 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 3: that defensive line fully healthy, and I think they'll be 485 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 3: able to generate some pressure up the middle, which I 486 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 3: think you want to do against Jordan Love. But you know, 487 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: green Law back, Armstead back, fully healthy d now and 488 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 3: look Packers. Love has been great. They cooked the Cowboys. 489 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: A lot of that was for a lot of that 490 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: was on Love. A lot of that was on you know, 491 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: the Dak mistakes to play, the play calling out, the coaching, 492 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 3: some of the things that from a game plan perspective, 493 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 3: Dallas was just left in the dust. As far as personnel. 494 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 3: They wouldn't adjust, and I don't think that's going to 495 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 3: be an issue here. We have to remember this is 496 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 3: a Packers team that I mean, look, if you look 497 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 3: over the last three weeks, they beat I mean, they 498 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: lost to Tommy DeVito, they lost to the Steelers. They 499 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: beat up on some bad teams. And if you look 500 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 3: this Green Bay defense, which is twenty seventh vos is 501 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 3: it getting better now? Twenty eighth weighted told you all 502 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 3: the things that they can't cover, which is where San 503 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 3: Frantic sells in. They also played an extremely easy schedule 504 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 3: of opposing offenses. That's not adjusting for the fact they 505 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: played de Veto they play you know, they played a 506 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 3: game against the Vikings with Jarren Hall, and they played 507 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 3: the Rams, who are considered a good offense when Brent 508 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 3: Rippon started, so their defensive metrics benefited from three playing 509 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 3: the Rams with Brent Rippin. If you adjust for that, 510 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 3: you know this was a bottom two to three defense 511 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 3: in the league against one of the easiest schedules in 512 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 3: the league. It's just hard for me to see them 513 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 3: getting many stops, and uh, you know this is I 514 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 3: just think that this is a little bit of in place. 515 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 3: I think this line should be over ten. In playoffs, 516 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 3: you're not getting you're not gonna get huge side edges, 517 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 3: So like, I think this line should be fourteen. But 518 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 3: I think San Fran's gonna come up. They're gonna come 519 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 3: out the great script. They're going to get a lead 520 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 3: at home. They're gonna be able to get some pressure 521 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 3: with a fully healthy defense out for Screen Bay and 522 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 3: them some mistakes. It's just I keep looking at this 523 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 3: game and I get deja vu because I remember and 524 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 3: when we were doing this podcast in twenty nineteen, I 525 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 3: think I had a Packers fifty to one, forty to one. 526 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 3: I don't know, I forget the price, but I had 527 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 3: my only Super Bowl future was a Packers future, and 528 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 3: they were going to San Francisco. You know, you had 529 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, but they couldn't stop the run. 530 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 3: And I was like, they're going to get ripped apart, 531 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 3: and they did. And I feel like nothing has changed 532 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 3: with these teams, and I just can't see many paths 533 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 3: for this Green Bay defense to get stops. I think 534 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 3: San Francisco is going to go up and down the 535 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,239 Speaker 3: field at will, if they want to run it, if 536 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 3: they want to throw it. It's hard for me to 537 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 3: see this Green Bay defense getting many stops. And by 538 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 3: the way, Green Bay also is one of the worst 539 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 3: special teams unit in the entire NFL. You're a completely 540 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 3: unreliable kicker, but they've been bad across the board. So 541 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 3: it's like, we're the team that's been the most dominant 542 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 3: in the NFL season off of buye at home with 543 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 3: huge advantages on offense. Now a healthier defense. You're basically 544 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 3: just saying, like Jordan Love, keep this within a touchdown, 545 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: and he's been great since Week eleven. But I think 546 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 3: we've gone a little bit too far overboard based on 547 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 3: last week's performance. So I'm selling the Packers after last week. 548 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 3: It's funny, you see, it's funny you see these swings everyone, 549 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 3: you know, not anyone listened to this podcast for us, 550 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 3: but Cowboys were an overwhelming public side. Now everyone wants 551 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 3: to jump off and no one wanted to take the 552 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 3: seven and a half of Dallas. Now now everyone wants to, 553 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 3: you know, take the nine and a half at San Francisco. 554 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 3: San Francisco has been significantly better than Dallas, and this 555 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 3: is a much better matchup, and they're coming off of 556 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 3: a buy at home. And again, like I said, the 557 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 3: Packers have been good, but can we can we remember 558 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 3: since week eleven they beat the Chiefs in that amazing 559 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 3: spot a guy that spot circled before the year, they 560 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 3: beat the they lost to Tommy DeVito, they got blown 561 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 3: out by the Bucks. They held on to beat the Panthers. 562 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 3: The Panthers scored thirty on them. By the way that 563 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 3: it took the Panthers. If you line the Panthers up 564 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 3: against all the other playoff teams and they just played 565 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 3: one each week, how long would it take them to 566 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 3: score thirty total points? Like six months? Then they beat 567 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 3: the Vikings, they blew up the Bikons with Jaren Hall 568 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 3: starting the Nick Mollens, and then they beat the Bears. 569 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 3: Like I think we have to cool our jets based 570 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 3: on just one game against the Cowboys, I'm taking the 571 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 3: Niners here minus time and a half at home. 572 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: I have this line right about where the market does, 573 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: so not as much of an edge for me, but 574 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, all the points makes sense that this probably 575 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: is the time to sell on Green Bay. I am 576 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: would have worried they could keep up offensively. We've kind 577 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: of been seeing that in the playoffs. The theme is 578 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: these offenses that are playing well have kind of won 579 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: the day. 580 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 2: And you know some of the defenses. You know, Cleveland 581 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: comes to ard. 582 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean, although they were bad on the road, but 583 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 1: I do think this Green Bay offense is humming right 584 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: now and could give a nine US some issues. But yeah, 585 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: I agree, I think the Niners on that Green Bay defense, 586 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: they're gonna go up and down a. 587 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 2: Field, all right. For my third pick, the sixth. 588 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: And final of the Divisional round six pack, going with 589 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Bucks plus six and a half at 590 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. So a couple of things here. A 591 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: few things here. Number one of the Bucks that I've 592 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: been playing better as of late. You know, heading into 593 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: that game last week, they were up to fifteenth and 594 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: waited overall DVLA, so an above average team. 595 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 2: The Detroit seventh. 596 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay last week out gained Philadelphia four twenty six 597 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: to two thirty four. Detroit got out gained by the 598 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: Rams at home for twenty five to three thirty four, 599 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: so by nearly one hundred yards. And then we know 600 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: what Todd Bosen his Bucks defense is going to do. 601 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: Knew it was going to be a problem against the 602 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: you know, knew the Eagles are going to struggle with it. 603 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: And it's the blitz. And this Detroit team hasn't been 604 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: as bad as Jalen Hurts, but Jarrett Goff goes he's 605 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: a top graded passer when he's not blitzed at PFF 606 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: with a ninety point four grade. He drops to twenty 607 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: second against the blitz with a seventy point three grade. 608 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: So I think this Buffalo excuse me, this Tampa Bay 609 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: defense and it's blitz happiness is going to work to 610 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: its advantage. Here. You look at Detroit's defense, they're actually 611 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: grade out worse than Tampa Bay and waited DVA but 612 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: also pass funal defense number one against the run, sixteenth 613 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: against the pass. It really doesn't matter if you're number 614 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: one against the run against Tampa Bay because they've been 615 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: the worst rushing team in the league for the better 616 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: part of two years now. 617 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 2: So I don't think that's a big edge for them. 618 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: I think Detroit is still exploitable on the back ends, 619 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: been a lot better against pressure lately. He's just been 620 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: locked in and while you know, this isn't this isn't 621 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: a home game for Mayfield. It is an indoor game, 622 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: so you know, just kind of like Tampa Bay at 623 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: home and not really conditions. 624 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 3: Huh is it an indoor game? 625 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: Right? 626 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? What did they ask Todd bod that the frigid 627 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: Detroit weather? 628 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 3: Right? 629 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right? 630 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 4: The weather has been a factor in some of the 631 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 4: playoff games, even for the most prepared teams. Any special 632 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 4: plans to acclimate the team to perform in those confridge 633 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 4: and temperatures should you face them in Detroit? 634 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 3: You do know we play indoors, right, and they got 635 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 3: a dome, no nothing playing. 636 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: We only have to be outside for twenty seconds getting 637 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: off the bus, going under the thing, so we'll be okay. 638 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 2: Todd Bowles. 639 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: By the way, also, in a year where I feel 640 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: like a lot of coaches have just been terrible, Tod 641 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: Boles kind of managed to stay out of the news. 642 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: You know, he's like, it hasn't been amazing, but he 643 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: hasn't made those like terrible errors or just you know, 644 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: completely had his tea, you know, shit the ban or 645 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: anything like that. 646 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, last week that I think that what you're 647 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 3: saying now is like the Bucks. They can't run it. 648 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 3: Detroit's rundy has been very good. Uh, And you know, 649 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: that was one of the things I was worried about 650 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 3: with Tampa last week, and they showed me that they 651 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 3: understood the assignment and they didn't run. They didn't try 652 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 3: to run any in neutral game states they were coming 653 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: out and they came out firing. Showed me that they 654 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 3: you know, the scout was good. 655 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: It worked. 656 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 3: So you're very likely to look at this matchup again, 657 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,239 Speaker 3: and it's even more drastic because Eagles run. He kind 658 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 3: of had fallen off. So I agree. I think that 659 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 3: they're gonna come out. And they field looked healthy too, 660 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 3: because he was banged up in the air, I mean 661 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 3: he could ribs and knee, So I think that they 662 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 3: I'm very confident that they're going to come out and 663 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 3: not just it just would happen to times. I mean, 664 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 3: it happened more with Leftwich, but they would come out 665 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 3: and just run into walls and then they'd get you know, 666 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 3: be third and long and you know, and then they'd 667 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 3: get behind and it was just such an inefficient approach. 668 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 3: So after seeing what they did last week, yeah, I agree. 669 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: I was extremely impressed with Bulls and then just the 670 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,439 Speaker 3: staff which at the Scout, which I think will work. 671 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 3: Just run that back here this week because there's huge advantages. 672 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 3: I mean, you have you know, we talked about Vildor 673 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 3: potentially on Godwin a lot, and then if they shadow Sutton, 674 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 3: like people think Sutton is good, I was like, Sutton 675 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 3: is not good. Lions fans tell me in our one 676 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 3: of our podcast reviews, someone's like he said was a 677 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 3: YouTube comment. He says, Cam Sutton is trash. I'm never 678 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 3: listening to this guy again. So yeah, Evan's on Sutton, 679 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 3: Godwin on Vildor, and then Kate out and the god 680 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 3: just on me. I mean, no one could cover him. 681 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 3: So there's major advantages in the when Mayfield drops back, 682 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 3: and I'm pretty confident that's the perks are going to take. 683 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: And you know, there's a lot of things that work 684 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: at Tampa Bay's favor here a little bit too. You know, 685 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: this team Baker Mayfield at quarterback. I think that's you know, 686 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: the reason, you know, ever casual better look at say, 687 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, that's terrible. He's been playing well. But 688 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: also this is a Tampa Bay team that's you know, 689 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: besides Mayfield, it's playoff tested. I mean, this is still 690 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: you still have a lot of the guys that went 691 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. You have a lot of the guys, 692 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, they've won the division each of the you know, 693 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: the last few years, or they've been or before that 694 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: they were in the playoffs, they were losing to the 695 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: Saints for the division. 696 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: But this is that same kind of team here. 697 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: So it's not like this team is just a whole 698 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 1: bunch of new uh, you know, guys who haven't been 699 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: in this position before. 700 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 2: Mayfield's won a couple of playoff games now for his career. 701 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: So you know, if anything, Detroit, you know, ford Field 702 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,400 Speaker 1: is going to be great, that the home field is 703 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: still going to work in Detroit's favor, obviously, but it's 704 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: another one of those situations where I think the Mark 705 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: is just undervaluing Tampa Bay as far as trends go. 706 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: Sunday Divisional Round single digit road dogs twenty six nine 707 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: and one against the spread over the last two decades. 708 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 2: That's seventy four percent and while caught or. 709 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:06,240 Speaker 1: Divisional dogs who are underperforming the pythagorin win lost record 710 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: from the regular season, which the Bucks, you know they're there. 711 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: They are slightly not by a major amount, but they 712 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 1: would have over nine wins for them if you just 713 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: look at their point differential and they end up going 714 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: nine and eight. Those teams thirty five, thirteen and two 715 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: seventy three percent against the spread over the last two decade. 716 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: That was a stat I sided on the convinced me 717 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 1: back in the Bucks last week as well, so had 718 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: the Lions the first time in this matchup. Actually they 719 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 1: did cover, So hopefully I can stay hot with picking 720 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: the right side of this one because I'm going with 721 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: the Bucks this time plus six and a half at 722 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: the Lions. 723 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I will say, you cash, you cast that 724 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 3: probably the right side. But I'm telling you, I watched 725 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 3: that entire game. Mayfield missed two or three missed and 726 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 3: eight there was an eighty R touchdown he missed. Yeah, 727 00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 3: but there was a couple just wide open. Guys. It's 728 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 3: just gonna happen against the line. So that game could 729 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 3: have been a lot closer, very misleading final score. If 730 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 3: you're going back and just looking at how that played 731 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 3: out here, you're like, wow, they only scored six or 732 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 3: seven points. I forget what it was. The one thing 733 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 3: that worries me is I think both offenses have some 734 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 3: advantages here, and I know Campbell is going to be 735 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 3: aggressive on fourth down. And we said our ball has 736 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 3: been better this year. He's still not aggressed. He's still 737 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 3: on fourth in shorts. He's still very conservative, I think. Yeah, 738 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 3: I forget who put out the most aggressive coaches of 739 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 3: twenty twenty three this year, but Campbell was either one 740 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 3: or two, as you would expect, and Bulls is still 741 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 3: you know, bottom third of the league. So I hope 742 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 3: that he is a little bit more aggressive here. But 743 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 3: that's the one thing that worries me is just like 744 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 3: the Bucks punning on like fourth and one at like 745 00:37:55,880 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 3: the forty three or fourth and two, and then on 746 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 3: the other side, the lines go for it, you know, 747 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 3: in the same situation, end up with a touchdown, and 748 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 3: those are just big swing. So I hope Ball's is 749 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 3: a little bit more aggressive because I know Campbell's going 750 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 3: to be and I think this is a good game 751 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 3: to do, so yeah, I like it. I think it's 752 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 3: not too high. They have to sit in like four 753 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 3: four eight. 754 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 2: All right, Well that is going to do it for 755 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 2: our division round six pack. 756 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: Again, we'll get to Bill's Chiefs right after this, but 757 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: just to recap, Stuck has Baltimore first half minus six 758 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: and a half, Chris Godwin longest reception over twenty one 759 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: and a half, and the Niners minus nine and a 760 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: half against the Pack, I have Devin Singletary under sixteen 761 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: and a half receiving yards, Trey Palmer under twenty and 762 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: a half receiving yards, and the Bucks plus six and 763 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: a half. 764 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 2: This podcast is proudly presented by Bett MGM. 765 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 1: Used bonus code action act ion when signing up to 766 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: get one hundred and fifty eight dollars in bonus bets 767 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: when you bet five dollars for new users in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, 768 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming. 769 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: Terms and conditions of probably must be twenty one year older. 770 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: Gambling problem call one eight hundred gambler.

You end 780 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 2: up flipping on your ass. 781 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 3: One step at a time. Man. 782 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 2: The only step it's important is the next one. 783 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: All right, So we got one more game here got 784 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: the Chiefs got the Bills at BETAMGM, Bills favored by 785 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 1: three at home against Kansas City, the total forty five 786 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 1: and a half stuck. 787 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:04,800 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on Bill's Chiefs. 788 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 3: Well, first, I'll start with that. So the Chiefs beat 789 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 3: the Dolphins just a shell of a team last week. 790 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,440 Speaker 3: I mean I played some Dolphins, so did you. But 791 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,359 Speaker 3: it's not like I was like, oh, now the Chiefs 792 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 3: are back. So excluding the Dolphins, who they beat last week, 793 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 3: let's get a trigger question. How many playoff teams did 794 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 3: the Chiefs beat this year? 795 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 2: Another one I believe, right? 796 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:33,800 Speaker 3: Who was it? 797 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 2: The Dolphins? 798 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, so besides the Dolphins. 799 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 2: Oh oh, I thought you made that play? 800 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah, they beat the Dolphins, but nobody knows 801 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,959 Speaker 3: zero oh zero zero. 802 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 2: They beat the Domins twice. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. 803 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 3: They beat the Dompins twice and we said all year 804 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 3: how bad they looked, and it wasn't the same Chiefs team. 805 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 3: But I was shocked by that. Like and playing in 806 00:40:55,719 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 3: the AFC, there are road winds. Were the Jags, Jets, Vikings, 807 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 3: loss of the Broncos, Raiders, loss of the Packers hats, 808 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 3: and then the Chargers in a backup game like that's 809 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,479 Speaker 3: I was shocked. More of a fun fact, the people 810 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 3: kept asking me last week at the Action event shot 811 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 3: with anyone who came, pleasure meeting a lot of you, 812 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 3: like what should this line day? I think it's got 813 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 3: to be three. I think at two and a half 814 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 3: the Bills are going to take sharp money and at 815 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 3: three and a half because I always try the bus 816 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 3: like Mahomes is a dog, especially with the hook public 817 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 3: and Sharper Money would take the three and a half. 818 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 3: So I feel like three is the perfect number. I 819 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 3: think it came out so two and a half just 820 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 3: because of the Bill's injury situation. There's a lot of 821 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 3: guys on they're in a short week too. It's worth 822 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 3: mentioning it two fewer days of prep and rest, which 823 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,919 Speaker 3: I mean, I look, concussion, they don't matter as games 824 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 3: get more meaningful as we've seen, but it got like 825 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:01,399 Speaker 3: Tarron Johnson, he gets a concussion, it's just like fourth, one, two. 826 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 3: But I mean I'm assuming he'll play because it's a 827 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 3: playoff game, which is ridiculous. But yeah, so that's where 828 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 3: that comes into play. I talked about that with our producers. 829 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: Is a Bills fan, I was like, that's where really 830 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 3: the short we could hurt you if you get a 831 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 3: bunch of injuries and then you know, if a god 832 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,320 Speaker 3: was like fifty to fifty was a normal week, and 833 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 3: then maybe he doesn't go because it's only four or 834 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 3: five days. So yeah, Bill's a lot of injuries, cornerback, linebacker, 835 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean gave Davis. I'm curious to see 836 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 3: how some of those shake out. I like the Bills 837 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 3: with this game, but it's Bill's Chiefs. It's gonna come 838 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 3: down to dumb shit, like it's gonna be close, and 839 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,479 Speaker 3: just the way that it works, I would it would 840 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 3: be hilarious if this game went to overtime because it 841 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 3: would be the first playoff game to go to overtime, 842 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,280 Speaker 3: assuming none of the three before it. Since the infamous 843 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 3: AFC Championship game that where they changed the role because 844 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 3: of it, So that would be funny. But I'm sure 845 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 3: Bills fans and myself without what the Bills was every 846 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 3: overtime game ever. But the difference in this game, the 847 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 3: Chiefs offense is still broken to me, there's still a 848 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 3: lot of issues. I know they still have Mahomes, but 849 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 3: I think the difference in this game is the Bills 850 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 3: now turned into the most run heavy team in the league. 851 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 3: Since Joe Burdy took over his opts coordinator, They've gone 852 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 3: from eighth to thirty second in pass play rate. I 853 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 3: think it was weeks one through nine and ten through 854 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,760 Speaker 3: half the year basically, so they were eighth in passy 855 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 3: right now thirty second. There's some noise in that, and 856 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 3: then if you're winning whatever, but they're now extremely run heavy. 857 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 3: Chiefs can't defend the run twenty seventh TVOA against the run, 858 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 3: you can run on them. And the Chiefs still have Mahomes. 859 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 3: The best offense, the best defense for the Bills, especially 860 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 3: the injuries, it's running the ball here. Do they treat 861 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 3: this as like an approach this game like the Cowboys game, 862 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 3: come out and just say We're going to bully this 863 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 3: shit out of you and just run all over you. 864 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,760 Speaker 3: Then take you know, well time shots, but use Allen's legs, 865 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 3: Cook's legs. I think that's the biggest matchup advantage in 866 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 3: this game. Some of the Bill's injuries we'll see because 867 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 3: you know, there's the depth could get really hurt, especially 868 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,720 Speaker 3: if there's the clusters, you know, at cornerback. Rasul Douglas, 869 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 3: I think he's hoping he's really important. He wasn't who 870 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 3: cares against the Steelers, but he said he could have played. 871 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,720 Speaker 3: But then McDermott came out and said someone else was closer. 872 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 3: So I don't know, but I think that he's going 873 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 3: to least suit up. But you know, if Johnson doesn't go, 874 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 3: Douglas doesn't go. Bentford was hurt. So if you have 875 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 3: cluster injuries at corner end or linebacker, you know, that 876 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 3: takes things a little bit more, a little diceier. But 877 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 3: I think that's what this this game comes down to, 878 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 3: is that the Bills, we have turned into this like 879 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 3: running juggernaut, can just come out with that game plan, 880 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 3: use Allen's legs a ton, and then you still have 881 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 3: Josh Allen throwing the ball as well. But that's how 882 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 3: you attack this chief d This new Bills offense is 883 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 3: built to exploit that. And we have to remember that 884 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 3: this Chiefs offense, things aren't fixed. Just because they beat 885 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 3: that the Dolphins, who had a bunch of backup defenders 886 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 3: in a blizzard. This offense still as major issues. So 887 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 3: I think that's the difference. I think the Bills win 888 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 3: this game. I would have at the minus two and 889 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 3: a half, but the injuries I want to wait on, 890 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 3: and then if it's at three, you know, already have 891 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 3: a fifty to one future, I'll probably let it go. 892 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 3: But I think that's the that's the handicap here. The 893 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 3: Bills run offense against the Chiefs run defense will be 894 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 3: the difference and enable them to have easier third down situations, 895 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 3: sustain longer drives, and the Bills should be able to, 896 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 3: you know, as long as there's not too many injuries 897 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 3: in the back end, they can generate pressure off the edge. 898 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 3: And that's where people talk about the wide receivers for 899 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 3: the Chiefs, which are an issue. Kelsey isn't the same 900 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 3: guy that he once was. I was gonna, well, I'll 901 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 3: get your thoughts in this next so the pass catchers 902 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 3: aren't as great, but the tackles are of are a problem, 903 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 3: and the Bills can exploit that without having the blitz. 904 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 3: You know, the Dolphins had a blitz a bunch and 905 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 3: play cover zero last week, which you know doesn't really 906 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 3: work against homes. You don't want to blitz moms. You 907 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 3: want to be able to get pressure, which the Bills 908 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,360 Speaker 3: can do assuming they don't have too many in the 909 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 3: back end. So I think it's a pretty good matchup 910 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 3: in that sense. They can get pressure off the edge. 911 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 3: I was thinking about Kelsey underprops, but then I look 912 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 3: every playoff game and then every game against the Bills. 913 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 3: I mean, Kelsey, you just bet that Kelsey over catches 914 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 3: he gets. I mean, he's gonna got ten eleven targets. 915 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 3: So I couldn't do it, even though I was like, 916 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 3: there's this this one, there's definitely gonna be overinflated. But 917 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 3: I I personally couldn't do anything on Kelsey. And then 918 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 3: what are your thoughts in the game. 919 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, as far as Kelsey, I wouldn't really want to 920 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: touch his unders. Yes, he's not the same guy, but uh, 921 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 1: you know, Buffalo has been I mean, this has been 922 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 1: happening a year. They've gotten injuries at linebacker and and 923 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:42,240 Speaker 1: things like that. So you know, in this spot, especially 924 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,799 Speaker 1: Rice coming off a big game, especially because the Chiefs 925 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 1: could be down more than there used to being down, 926 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 1: so you could get some you know, some stuff happening late. 927 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 2: He did play. 928 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: He ran around at ninety one percent of their drop back, 929 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: so it's not like he's really coming out of the 930 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 1: game much. 931 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 2: So I wouldn't don't love Kelsey unders as now. 932 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: Now it depends, you know, if the market continues to 933 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: go up, you know maybe, but you know, follow us 934 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 1: an app. 935 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 3: We'll see if. 936 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 2: We end up doing that. 937 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,720 Speaker 1: A Now, a quick word from our sponsor, Hello Fresh. 938 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 1: With Hello Fresh, you get farm fresh, free portioned ingredients 939 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 1: and seasonal recipes delivered right to your door.

Kids a game, Yeah, I agree. I 959 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:22,360 Speaker 1: think Kansas City tackle is going to be an issue 960 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: that's never good. Your run defense is the weakest unit 961 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 1: in the game. That's not ideal Against Buffalo, both quarterbacks 962 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: can create off schedule and off script, so you know 963 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: that advantage. You know, Mahomes gets to the playoffs, so 964 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,800 Speaker 1: it's like, you can't sack this guy. He's gonna scramble 965 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:41,399 Speaker 1: and just have some incredible runs. But Josh Allen could 966 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: do the same thing. I mean, that run against Pittsburgh 967 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 1: was just absurd when he faked had a little hitch fake. 968 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 1: The slide or whatever. So I think you kind of 969 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 1: match it up equally there Buffalo. You know, we'll see 970 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 1: about Gabe Davis. But you know, Buffalo still with Diggs 971 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: and Shakir, I think still has better receivers sales. 972 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,919 Speaker 3: I liked. I want Davis in there for a run block. 973 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 974 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 1: He's great at run buck and that's that's where you're 975 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 1: gonna miss him. But yeah, Buffalo has options too. You know, 976 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo can go to tight ends if they want. With 977 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: Knox and KK they can still go three wide if 978 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 1: they want. 979 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: So yeah, I like. I like Buffalo here at home. 980 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 1: You know, regular season, Buffalo has tended to own them 981 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: and then Kansas City when he gets to the playoffs. 982 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 2: But this is the first time Kansas City's playing. 983 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 3: First time my home's true road game. 984 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, in the playoffs right outside you know, neutral games 985 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: in the super Bowl, sure, but you know this is 986 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 1: a little different here. 987 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 2: So yeah, I give Buffalo the edge. 988 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 1: Not sure if I have a pick on the game. 989 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it also depends on the market. If it 990 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 1: goes back to two and a half, no juice, I'll 991 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 1: see if I get there. I think I'm at I 992 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 1: think I'm around three right now, so not a ton 993 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: of an edge on Buffalo, But as I dig into 994 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 1: the matchup, as we see the injury report, because I 995 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, I thought I was gonna have Buffalo closer 996 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 1: to four, all things be at equal, everything healthy. But 997 00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 1: right now, you know, it's just so early in the 998 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 1: week that we don't know exactly who's in who's out yet. 999 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 2: But yeah, I like Buffalo in this game. I don't 1000 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 2: think you know, if in west of Line. 1001 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 1: Got to three to five, and you know Buffalo had 1002 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 1: a bunch of injuries that weren't going to be fixed 1003 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: by this game, then maybe I'd look at case because 1004 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: that Mahomes is a dog. Mahomes is a dog or 1005 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,320 Speaker 1: a favorite by a field goal or less, so essentially, 1006 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,879 Speaker 1: anytime he's not a favorite by more than a field goal, 1007 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:24,800 Speaker 1: he is twenty eight and one seventy one percent against 1008 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 1: the spread, so that there is profitable Mahome trends. 1009 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 2: But I just kind of like what you said, I 1010 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 2: don't think this is the same chief offense. 1011 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 1: I do think that Rashid Rice kind of going more 1012 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: downfield than truly emerging is that top receiver does help. 1013 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 3: But Damas would be huge. 1014 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:40,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, playing. 1015 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 3: Is he healthy. That's a big factor, the emergence. 1016 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,760 Speaker 1: Of Rice, and I think the Buffalo and potential injuries, 1017 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: and then you know, the extra rest is what's working 1018 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,439 Speaker 1: in Kansas City's favorite Buffalo. I think the better team, 1019 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 1: all things being equal, home field, better team would expect 1020 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 1: him to win a game. So that's just one we'll 1021 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: have to see till later in the week, because I 1022 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: mean later in the week. I didn't bet the Bucks 1023 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:02,880 Speaker 1: the later in the week. I didn't bet the Texas 1024 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 1: the later in the reef. So do follow me an 1025 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:05,839 Speaker 1: app actress Raybond stuck? 1026 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 2: Is that stuck you two? And see if we get 1027 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 2: down in any of these. 1028 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, either like three seven with the injuries 1029 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 3: the short week, I'm now just like sitting around three 1030 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 3: and then went to wait to see what I get 1031 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,240 Speaker 3: from there. It would be funny. I think the Ravens 1032 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,440 Speaker 3: would be depending I mean depending on what happens this 1033 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 3: week with Indrews, But I think the Ravens would be 1034 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 3: a favorite of a field goal next week at home 1035 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,800 Speaker 3: against the Chiefs. But it would be funny if the 1036 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 3: Ravens were minus two and a half and then because 1037 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 3: like Lamar and mahomes are like combined like one hundred 1038 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 3: and two and one against the spread as an underdog 1039 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 3: or favorite of the under a field goal. So you 1040 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 3: could make you could just anyone make it a case 1041 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 3: for either side could use that trend, which would be 1042 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 3: hilarious because it works for both. But the one thing, God, 1043 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 3: this is just the stupid that doesn't meet anything. It's 1044 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 3: the staple size is small. But this is Kelsey's last 1045 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 3: ten playoff games. Eight on ten targets for one oh nine, thirteen, 1046 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 3: fifteen targets for one eighteen, ten on fifteen targets for 1047 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 3: one thirty three, five on seven targets for one eight, 1048 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,800 Speaker 3: eight on nine for ninety six, ten on eleven for 1049 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 3: ninety five, fourteen on seventeen, targets for ninety eight, seven 1050 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 3: on eight for seventy eight, six on six for eighty 1051 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 3: one last week, seven on ten targets for seventy one. 1052 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 3: I have to assume he went he's ten and oh 1053 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 3: on the over receiving yards and there's ten games. Maybe 1054 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 3: he does this is there's reception ard totals. Ever in 1055 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: the eighties, I guess in the past they happened, right. 1056 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: They have been in the past but he definitely went 1057 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: over this last one against the Dolphins. 1058 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 5: I think it was like fifties. So yeah, even even 1059 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,399 Speaker 5: that's with three drops, and that's with three drops. Yeah, 1060 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 5: maybe the one gets since he had seventy eight yards. 1061 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 5: I wentver, but like I look back at that and 1062 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 5: I was like, I'm out. 1063 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 2: You getting that negative game script and it's just gonna 1064 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 2: get away from you fast, if you know. 1065 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 3: So Rolscow Ravens for futures and I know a lot 1066 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,719 Speaker 3: of people that are listening to all this, so let's uh, 1067 00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 3: let's get them home and have another good weekend. 1068 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 2: Yeah they're and again Stucky said Shout. 1069 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 1: So everyone who came out this past weekend in Jersey 1070 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: on Saturday and Sunday really was fun to meet to 1071 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: audi out and appreciate all the kind words. 1072 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: And hopefully we can keep it rolling.
