1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: Welcome, players, Welcome. It's time now Penny the Penny. It

2
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: is Benny versus the Penny. Week thirteen in the NFL.

3
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: Now we are smack dab in the middle of this

4
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: on the fifth hour with Ben Mallory. We already had

5
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: three games that were playing on Thanksgiving. He had the

6
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 1: Bears and the Lions, the Bills and the Cowboys, and

7
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: the Saints and the Falcons. So rather than talk about

8
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: those games, we have to look forward. We don't look back.

9
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: We look forward. Now we can look back to last weekend,

10
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: because when I do well, I like to look back.

11
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: And this podcast the keeper of the penny is the

12
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: annoying narcissist David Gascon as he is with me. You know,

13
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't say much on this podcast, but I guess

14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: goan last week. How did we do against the spread

15
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: against the number where that's separate rates the adults from

16
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: the children. How did we do against the spread in

17
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: week twelve? You can also call me a good looking

18
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: and charming You can do that if you'd like I was.

19
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: If I was blind in death, I would say that

20
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: you've finished ten and four in a week. Numbers twelve

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: of the National Football No need to clap guests, Scoon,

22
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: there's no need to clap their ten and four. That's

23
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: a seven fourteen winning percentage. Do we hardest goes? What?

24
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: What thing do we shine the penny in in postseason football?

25
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: Or will you? Will you dip your toes into that?

26
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: I know Weeks seven teams a little cautious. Um, yeah,

27
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 1: I usually don't do a Week seventeen because it's horrible.

28
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: There's only a couple of games where both teams are

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: trying and I find it repulsive. So I my advice

30
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: is always not to bet on Week seventeen. So I

31
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: don't even know if we're gonna do it for Weeks seventeen.

32
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: But and the other thing is like I usually just

33
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: did Benny Versus the Penning on the radio, but we

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: could do it on the podcast. I just don't think

35
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: we can do a standalone podcast with one or two games,

36
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm like, While our weekend we could

37
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: probably do it because there's four games on a wild

38
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: card weekend, but then it quickly, uh you know, it

39
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: whittles down pretty quick in the playoffs. Well, can we

40
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: test your your Benny versus the Penny metal and and

41
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: dip our toes into the bowl season of college football. Uh,

42
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: we could do some of that. I'd be I'd be

43
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: open to that, but it has to be like, uh,

44
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: you know, it's gotta be I'm not doing the Weed

45
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: Either Bowl or the Bahamas Bowl. It's gotta be like,

46
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: I'll do a few of the big games, the the

47
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: grand daddy of them all, the Rose Bowl and the

48
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: BCS playing there. They're called the BCS. The college Football

49
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: playoffs set up and all that. Yeah, we could do that.

50
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: I'll keep you away from any kind of Mac or

51
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: Mountain West activity, Uh, any kind of Independence Bowls or

52
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: anything like that, so we can we can do that

53
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: because right now we have Ohio State, l s U, Clemson,

54
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: and Georgia as your one through four, and the playoff

55
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 1: rankings that they stay as is. It should be a

56
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: nice set up as we get ready towards. Uh. Here's that.

57
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: I will show you my vast knowledge of college sports,

58
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: and uh, I will impress, I will impress the masses.

59
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 1: All well, let's get to it. It is again Week

60
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: thirteen in the NFL, the first game up for us. Now,

61
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: before we give you the games, a disclaimer, UH, this

62
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: is for entertainment purposes only unless you win, uh, then

63
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: you must tip the dealer if you win. Uh. And

64
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: also this is designed to give you. We're giving you

65
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: a lot of opinions on these games. So I always

66
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: tell people who are new to the podcast, the the

67
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: Benny versus the Penny version, that what you really should

68
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: do is wait, it handicapped the game yourself. And if

69
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: I agree and you agree, you do your own homework.

70
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: And if if our thoughts line up on that game,

71
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: that's a game you should probably bet on. So that's

72
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: that's how we should do. Is We'll start out with

73
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: Green Bay eight and three at New Jersey. They're playing

74
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: the Giants. It's on Fox. You better watch. Are we

75
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: doing the Dick Stockton game this week? Yes, but that

76
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: is not the game. Uh No, it is not the

77
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: Dick Stockton game. That is a Tom Brennaman Chris Spielman game.

78
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: And the Packers opened up a seven and a half

79
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: point favorite. They're favorite by six and a half. The

80
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: forecast in the Tri state area calls for thunderstorms thirty

81
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: six degrees at kickoff at met Life Stadium in the

82
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: swamp Lands of New Jersey. The pick is in. I'll

83
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: be taking the Giants in this game. Now, a couple

84
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: of thoughts. A Matt Laflare the coach at green Bay.

85
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: I believe he on the sidelines. He did not have

86
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: green Bay Packer gear. He was wearing a hazmat suit

87
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: last weekend watching the Packers melt down against the forty

88
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: Niners and that Sunday night game that was a placement

89
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 1: test game. And it appears green Bay has to repeat

90
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: the third grade. Now, obviously this is a much easier opponent,

91
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: but Green Bay was not ready to play, and they

92
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: were not ready to play in both games in California.

93
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: And it's an odd thing with the Packers because they

94
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: have this gaudy aden free record. Aaron Rodgers has eighteen

95
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: touchdowns and two interceptions, and yet the eyeball test says

96
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: he's leaving some money on the table. He's not playing

97
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: as well as he could play. And just for example,

98
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: Sam Donald in particular, Sam Donald has been a better

99
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: quarterback on the road this season than Aaron Rodgers. So

100
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: I thought that was that was interesting. This game is

101
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: a road game. You've got the growing pains of Daniel Jones. Lately,

102
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: Sequon Barkley has been a shell of what he had

103
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,160
Speaker 1: been because of injury, but he's still playing. I'll give

104
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: him credit for that. But the main reason I like

105
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: the Giants despite all that the public is on green Bay.

106
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: The professional gamblers, the ones that are supposed to know

107
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: and bet the most, there on the side of the Giants.

108
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: Now green Bay is over rated. Uh, the Giants are

109
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 1: a bad team. But there's value here, all right. There's

110
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: value that the home team, Packers have not played well

111
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: in the road recently, and you're getting almost a touchdown,

112
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: so you have the possibility of a backdoor cover in

113
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, which is exactly what the Giants did

114
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: against Chicago last week. So I am taking the Packers

115
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 1: to win, but the Giants to cover. Packers twenty, Giants seventeen.

116
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: And the Penny is going with the New York Giants. Alright,

117
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: So the Penny piggybacking my work. They're knowing that I

118
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: am a great prognosticator. That's what more about age versus beauty.

119
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: I think since you're the elder statesman, Deepenny relies on

120
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: you going first, and then she goes. I think the

121
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: term for that is a copycat. That's a copycat. Dependis

122
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: a copycat. Next up Washington at Carolina. The Redskins are

123
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: two and nine, Carolina is five and six. It's on CBS.

124
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: This game not a Fox game, even though it's two

125
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: NFC teams. They've done that a few times this year.

126
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: It's Greg Gumbel and Trent Green at CBS. Now Carolina

127
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: opened a nine point favorite. They're favored by ten. It's

128
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: typical late November weather and the Carolinas light rain, temperatures

129
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: in the mid sixties that kickoff at Bank of America

130
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: Stadium in Charlotte. I am gonna pick the Carolina Panthers

131
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: in this game. I'm gonna do it now. Dwayne Haskins

132
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: has not only been a quarterback, he has been wretched.

133
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: And I love the story last week that he was

134
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: celebrated in some circles for getting his first win as

135
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: an NFL quarterback. He was taking selfies with fans and

136
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: all that Haskins had in that game against the Lions

137
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty six yards passing, no touchdowns, an interception.

138
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: His passer rating was below fifty and yet the perception is, well,

139
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: he's the winning quarterback, he must have played well. Uh.

140
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: Now they're even making excuses because he's been tremendously inaccurate

141
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins, who was pretty accurate at the Ohio State University,

142
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: and now some people around the Redskins are saying that

143
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: he's got this phantom wrist injury. I'm skeptical. Washington simply

144
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: cannot compete against an average or above average team with

145
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: this incompetent quarterback. The way Haskins is playing. I believe

146
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: Haskins will eventually be pretty good, but he ain't pretty

147
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: good right now. This is a non starter. Plus, the

148
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: Redskins mission statement is to lose, to suck, and to blow.

149
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: They can't be winning back to back games here. They

150
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: can't now. The other thing, and the only concern I

151
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: have is Carolina, because Carolina, on my mind, they are

152
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: on fumes. They showed more fight against the Saints last week.

153
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: But are they gonna come out deflated and and just

154
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: go through the motions and play lethargic football because their

155
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: season is pretty much over there not making the playoffs now.

156
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen, he had sucked for several weeks. He was

157
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: a puke, and he came out of the penalty box

158
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: and he played his first good game in several weeks.

159
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: He had three touchdowns in the Bayou and and did

160
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: a solid job. And if if he plays anywhere close

161
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: to that this week, Carolina wins this game by at

162
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: least twenty one points. Now, if the Panthers lose, Ron

163
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 1: Rivera should be fired on the spot to lose to

164
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins at home. Panthers thirty one Redskins. Penny's gots

165
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. Be sure to catch live editions of

166
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven

167
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio the I Heart Radio Whip. Alright,

168
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: so we agree on that kind of defeating the purpose

169
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: of Benny versus the penny. If it's a year ox

170
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: copy every time. Next up, Santa Clara tennant one. This

171
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: is the game of the year in the NFL. Santa

172
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 1: clar A tenant one Baltimore nine and two. It's on Fox.

173
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 1: So you better watch who's calling this game. You think

174
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: it's a Dick Stockton game. No, I think this is

175
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: a Kevin Burkhard game. That is correct. It is Kevin

176
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: Burkhard and Charles Davis have the call. In the early

177
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: television window. I'm guessing the NFL wishes they had moved

178
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: this to prime time. They did not. This would be

179
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: a game you would expect to see in the late

180
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: TV window at the very least. But it is an

181
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: early one o'clock kickoff in Baltimore. The Ravens. Prior to

182
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: Monday night game, we're favored by four and a half.

183
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: Baltimore is now favored by six points. In this game.

184
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: You got a ten in one team against the nine

185
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 1: and two team, and the nine and two team is

186
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: favored by almost in touchdown. The four forecast at MNT

187
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 1: Bank Stadium, the House that Sports with Coleman built rainy

188
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: and forty three degrees at kickoff in Baltimore, the pick

189
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 1: is in. I'm painting for gold with the forty Niners.

190
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the forty Niners in this game. Now,

191
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: First of all, this should be a slobber knocker. The

192
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: Ravens are the darlings of the NFL. We all know

193
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: that for the recent performance, a deservedly so. It's one

194
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 1: of the great runs we've seen in NFL history. It's

195
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: such a dominant run it reminds me of the greatest

196
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: show on turf of the old St. Louis rams back

197
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: in the day. But it's not like the forty Niners

198
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: have been shop liver here in mince meat. They've been

199
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: turning teams into mince meat all year. They're the real McCoy.

200
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: So it's the number one defense for the forty Niners

201
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 1: against the most lethal dual threat quarterback who's been clicking

202
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,080
Speaker 1: on all cylinders here in Lamar Jackson, who's got a

203
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: ridiculous sizzle reel. So what happens? You got the unstoppable force,

204
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: meaning the immovable object. We're gonna find out. I believe

205
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: the forty Niners are the right side here. Now. The

206
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: second thing, the real pressure is on Garoppolo, Jimmy Garoppolo

207
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: and the Niners running game collectively corroborative effort. They've got

208
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: to come out in what figures to be soggy conditions

209
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 1: in Baltimore play with the league right, come out early

210
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,359
Speaker 1: in the game. We saw this before with Cleveland. Baltimore

211
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: style of play lends itself to being a front runner, right,

212
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: meaning that if they fall behind, that eliminates the dual

213
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: threat that puts the kabbash on the running game. They

214
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: then have to scramble with throws to try and get

215
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: back in the game. You know, people are overreacting a

216
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: wee bit to the Monday night game because of the

217
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: Ramps did not show up in that game. And the

218
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: Ravens are the same team that lost to Cleveland at home,

219
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: then the same team that had to go to overtime

220
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: against the Baltimore Ravens. So it's it's not like that

221
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: this team is invincible. They're hot right now if you

222
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: believe in such things. They lost one of their key

223
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: offensive line in their centers out for the year in

224
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: the Rams game. The forty Niners got George Kittle back.

225
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: That's huge as he returned to Santa Clara's lineup. And

226
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: at the time we are recording many versus the Penny,

227
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: it sounds like Matt Brita and d Ford a couple

228
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: of other key players could be back either way. Uh,

229
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 1: you got a ten in one team with the number

230
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: one defense and that great defensive line that should be

231
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: able to bottleneck the running game and and all that.

232
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: Getting over six points. You gotta be kidding me. I'm

233
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: gonna take that every day of the week as certainly

234
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: gonna take that. This is one of my better plays.

235
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: The forty Niners not a fraud. They will square the circle.

236
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: They will find the cheat code to Lamar Jackson Niners

237
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: Ravens seven in a Classic, and the penny is Got's

238
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: cheat sheet. It is San Francisco for the one. Be

239
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: sure to catch live editions of The Ben Miller Show

240
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: wheat days at two a m. Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

241
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, so we've done three games here so far,

242
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: so good. All right, you should be happy about this.

243
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: You finished ten four last week. You were gloating about

244
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: your performance. You don't know how hardiness go over and

245
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: win games. You need to win fifty five percent to

246
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: make any kind of profit and gambling. Blah blah blah

247
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: blah blah. You should be happy about the penny. Well, no,

248
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: it's it's just not exciting. And people like when we disagree.

249
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: But fine whatever, I fine, we agree, I'm right, so

250
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: as always I'm right. Next up, now, this is another game.

251
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: This is a game that Lucas Oil Stadium is a dome.

252
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: It's gonna be cloudy and forty one degrees outside the

253
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: dome in Indianapolis at golf of this game, the Colts

254
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: are the pick. I'm gonna take Indianapolis. Now, this is

255
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: the game. Originally, when I first looked at the game,

256
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: I was leaning towards Tennessee. But the I started crunching

257
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: the numbers, and I started looking at the different angles

258
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: to this game, and and then I realized there's a

259
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: dense fog advisory around the Titans. And so I'm gonna

260
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: be on the home team here, the Colts. And I'll

261
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: tell you why I don't trust Ryan Tannehill. Period hard

262
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: stop right and Tannehill right now is playing above his skis.

263
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: He's leading the NFL in the yards for attempt, He's

264
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: completing over seventy of his passes. This is the last

265
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: quarterback to do it is Joe Montana. This is an

266
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: out of body experience. However, I'm not drinking the kool

267
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: aid yet for two reasons. Number one, I believe these

268
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 1: are hollow numbers. Why because Ryan Tannehill has beaten up

269
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: a bunch of lightweights, hasn't done it against a good

270
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: or above average team. The Colts are a much better test.

271
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: They're a better team than anyone he's faced so far.

272
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: And the second thing here is that if you look

273
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: at the track record of the Dolphins career of Ryan Tannehill,

274
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: before he got to Tennessee. And this tells you what

275
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: has happened, doesn't tell you what's gonna happen. But Tannehill

276
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: would have occasional games where he looked amazing and it

277
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: would give this false hope to the Miami fan. But

278
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: we we dubbed this thing gas on the Tannehill to step.

279
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: You know what the Tannehill too step is. This is

280
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: similar Ryan Fitzpatrick. Right, you do something good, then you

281
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: throw a bunch of I N T s next game. Well,

282
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: it's a dance move. It's you take one step forward

283
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: and two steps back. And that's what Tannehill has done. Right,

284
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: he'll have a masterpiece and then he'll come back and

285
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: he'll have a reversal of fortune. Now, sometimes he has

286
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: a couple of masterpieces and then he follows it up

287
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: with three pieces of of feces that you know, just projectile,

288
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: vomit all that. So that's that's a concern. Secondly, uh,

289
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 1: it's not perfect. Its bets not perfect, because any is

290
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: still a mash munit unit. They are the guys, the

291
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 1: key players, several of them are out. The backups have

292
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: done a pretty good job. But let's not go overboard.

293
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: Here they still don't have Marlon Mack. They don't he's out.

294
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron's gone the tight end, so it is up

295
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: to the replacements. Here. They're gonna have to run the

296
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: ball because Jacoby Brissette struggles to throw the ball. But

297
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: I like the coltst Dave Roberts would say, I like

298
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: the Colts in this spot, coming off a loss to

299
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: the Texans, having extra time to prepare. Frank Reich is

300
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: the better coach. So if it comes down to the

301
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, close game, I'd rather have Frank wright Uh

302
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: in the game than Mike rabel And and plus the

303
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: public is all over Ryan Tannell. If he was a musician,

304
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: they'd say he's Mozart. I don't believe he's Mozarty. This

305
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: is a a key game. I will go with the

306
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: grit and the moxie of the cold to muck up

307
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: the game too. Muck it up and they will win

308
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 1: ugly yet again, but they will barely buy the skin

309
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: on their chinny chin chin cover the spread Indianapolis twenty

310
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 1: three and the Tennessee Titans twenty The penny is gone

311
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: with the Tennessee Titans. The hair on your tennage chins

312
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,840

316
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: is incorrect. The hair hey stupid. The expression works both ways.

317
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: You can either use the skin on their chinny chin chin,

318
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 1: or you can use hair on their chinny chin chin.

319
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 1: If you google it, you will see that I am

320
00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: correct and that you are just unevolved. You're uneducated, and

321
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: you do not know the nuance of language the way

322
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 1: I do. All I do is study language, right, That's

323
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: all I do. You're out there on those dating sites

324
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: is what you're doing. I'm I'm studying language. Okay. Oh well,

325
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: I can see that. That's uh, it's working quite well

326
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: for you. Moving on, let repress on. Oh wow, alright,

327
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: moving on another win for me there Philadelphia five and

328
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: six at Miami two and nine. It's on Fox. Now.

329
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: Is this is this game with Dick Stockton game? I

330
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: was going between him and Kenny Albert and this one.

331
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say, yeahs Dick Stockton on this one.

332
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: David Guest, Karen, congratulations, you just lost the Dick Stockton

333
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: game you did not win. It is Kenny Albert who

334
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 1: has the call should have gone, you should have gone

335
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: behind curtain number one. That's a bad job by you.

336
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: Guess guy, what did he? It's odd because normally Kenny

337
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: Albert does every Giant's game, or or if they occasionally

338
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: get a Jets game. But yeah, he's doing. Dolphins Eagles

339
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: in beautiful Miami now Philly open attend They actually opened

340
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: a seven and appoint favorite. The line is all the

341
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: way up to ten. It's gonna be sunny eighty degrees

342
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: at kickoff at hard Rock Stadium in Miami with a

343
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: bunch of dudes from South Philly in the Delaware Valley

344
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: who will infiltrate Miami. I'm gonna take the Dolphins in

345
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 1: this game, and I know that's against popular opinion. I'll

346
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: be the contrarian here. A couple of thoughts. At first, Lance,

347
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: I agree that the Eagles should win this game in

348
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: a cake walk. But very few things have gone easy.

349
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: Very few things have gone easy for the Birds. Their

350
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen offense is field goal or punch. That's the

351
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: offense of the Philadelphia Eagles this year. Carson Wentz has

352
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: been in a nick. His numbers are not bad. But

353
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: check this out. Twenty two games, last twenty two games

354
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz is started, the Eagles have a losing record.

355
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: They're ten and twelve with Carson Wentz as their quarterback

356
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,640
Speaker 1: the last twenty two games. The Eagles are lacking playmakers.

357
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: They are lacking the wow factor Carson Wentz. Now they're

358
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: making excuses saying he's got a mangled hand. These are

359
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: not positives when you're talking about a double digit point spread.

360
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: Now I'm not here advocating. Secondly, for the Dolphins. They

361
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,919
Speaker 1: have so many issues. They need more than therapy. They

362
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: probably need to be institutionalized in the Miami Dolphins. But

363
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: but this is more of a bet against Philly than

364
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,479
Speaker 1: it is a confidence play on Miami. And I like

365
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: to look at the psychological part of gambling. The Eagles

366
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: are coming off too high profile games against the Patriots

367
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks games in Philly, games they lost, and

368
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: now now they are playing the Dolphins, a team nobody

369
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: gets up for. Plus they have the distraction of South

370
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: Beach and you're leaving Philly where it's forty degrees or

371
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: thirty five degrees, are going to Miami where it's eighty degrees. Uh,

372
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 1: so you have a chance, not a lot of opportunity,

373
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: but a night to get into some debauchery. But double

374
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: digit home doogs and being willing to bet on bad

375
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: teams has been a very good formula to win some

376
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: money over the years. The public almost always prefers road

377
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: favorites instead. I like to go against the public. So

378
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,119
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Philly to win. But to not cover

379
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: Eagles twenty four Dolphins twenty you stubborn bathroom. You never

380
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: learn your lesson, and Penny is picking the Eagles. Fly Fly,

381
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: fly fly right into weed Man's house there in South Florida.

382
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: Al right, next up Tampa Bay at Jacksonville. It's on Fox.

383
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: You better watch four and seven, four and seven the

384
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: records here? Who's calling this game? Is this? You've already

385
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: lost the Dick Stockton game. But is this the Dick

386
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: Stockton game? That is correct? This is the Dick Stockton

387
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: Mark Flare game. So you didn't win, but you came

388
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: close to winning the Dick Stockton game. And this game open,

389
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: how about this line? Do you see the line movement

390
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: on this Jackson Jacksonville open a four and a half

391
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 1: point favorite. They are now favored by one one stinking point.

392
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 1: At t i a a bank field in Jacksonville, be

393
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: cloudy and seventies seven degrees at kickoff cloudy and seventy

394
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 1: seven degrees. I'm taking Tampa Bay in this game, and

395
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: and I'll walk you through how I got the Tampa

396
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: Bay Alright, Ay, this is the Sunshine Bowl. Whoever wins

397
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: this game wins the bragging rights for Florida because the

398
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: Dolphins are worse than both these teams. Uh. Now, I

399
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: saw it where Jacks coach douglall Ron says that Nick

400
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: Foles gives his team the best chance to win, so

401
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: that's why he's starting Nick Foles. Let me, I would

402
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: like to translate that, Yes, can I have a Dakota ring?

403
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: What he left out, Doug Moron was the end of

404
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 1: that sentence. There should be a COMMA at the end

405
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: of Nick Foles gives us the best chance to win,

406
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: Comma because we are paying him fifty million dollars of

407
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: guaranteed money. Because that's really why Nick Foles is starting.

408
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: If it was based on performance, he would not be

409
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback here. Uh, that's just the reality. Jackson

410
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,719
Speaker 1: has been outscored seventy five to thirty since Nick Foles

411
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: came back from injury to the starting lineup. Keep in mind,

412
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: though that doesn't sound that bad, I guess being outscored

413
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: by forty five points, twenty one of those points came

414
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 1: in garbage time. So with Nick Foles in competitive football,

415
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: they've only gotten three field goals. Jacksonville has I cannot

416
00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: bet on the Jacks until Nick Foles either improves or

417
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: or minshoe Mania returns Gardner Minshew comes back as the quarterback. Now. Secondly,

418
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: on the flip side, you've got Jameis wins Now. We

419
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: talked about him on the radio show. He is a

420
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,120
Speaker 1: case study on being really good and really bad at

421
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: the same time. Right, is the glass half full? Is

422
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 1: the glass half empty? He is unpaced to throw for

423
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: close to five thousand yards a gazillion touchdowns, and at

424
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: the same time he's leading the NFL in interceptions, and

425
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: he's a turnover factory. So all those interceptions dismantle all

426
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 1: the goodwill that the passing yards and the touchdowns provide,

427
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: and it really harpoons the Buccaneers chances of winning most

428
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: of the time. They did beat Atlanta last week. The

429
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 1: other factor is Tampa based defense is atrocious. Despite all that, again,

430
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 1: I want to quote Dave Roberts. I liked the Bucks

431
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: in this spot. But it's get more to bet against

432
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 1: Nick Foles than it is to take take advantage of

433
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 1: of anything else. You've got to really go against the

434
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: incompetent Nick Foles. I don't even think the Buck's defense

435
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: is gonna make him look good. Buccaneers thirty four, Jags twenty,

436
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: and the Pangs on the opposite way. Going to Jaguars

437
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 1: on this one, Going with Jackson, all right. Next up

438
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 1: the New York Jets at Cincinnati. It's on CBS with

439
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: Spirodidas and Adam Archiletta. Now, the Jets opened a three

440
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. They are still a three

441
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite in this game. It'll be

442
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: partly sunny and fifty degrees that kick off at Paul

443
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: Brown Stadium. The O and eleven Bengals the four and

444
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: seven Jets. I am gonna side with Mr oh and

445
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: Elevin here. I'm gonna take the Cincinnati Fungals in this game.

446
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why, all right. I understand things have

447
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 1: been rolling along for the Big Green machine there in

448
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 1: all phases, by land, by air, by water. It is

449
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: amazing seeing what playing bad teams can do for your confidence.

450
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 1: The Jets are the NFL's number one defensive yards per

451
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: game the last three weeks. They're ahead of the forty Niners.

452
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: They're ahead of the Ravens, They're ahead of the Pacers.

453
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: There ahead of everybody. You toss in the fact that

454
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 1: Sam Donald is no longer dealing with motto, he's no

455
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: longer seeing ghosts. I guess the ghostbusters came in and

456
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: figured all this out, and you see why the Jets

457
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: fans are excited. The last three weeks against the Giants, Redskins,

458
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: and Raiders, Sam Donald has seven touchdowns and one interception.

459
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: He's averaging over nine yards per attempt. That's great, but

460
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 1: the law of averages say he is due for a regression,

461
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: even against the bad team. And in the second thing, now,

462
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: the Bengals are a total ship show. I am not

463
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 1: gonna sit here and and say anything different, but if

464
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: you look at what they did. They originally benched Andy Dalton,

465
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,959
Speaker 1: they brought in Ryan Finley. Now, Ryan Finley has been

466
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 1: such a nebbish, he has been so incompetent. He's had

467
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: such reckless disregard for his ability to play quarterback that

468
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 1: Cincinnati was forced to go back to the red rifle.

469
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: This is dysfunction junction. What is your function? Is what

470
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 1: it is? So it's rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Uh.

471
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: Now that said, this is a big opportunities, a brass

472
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: ring situation for Dalton. He gets another opportunity. Think of

473
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: this is a casting call, an open audition for Dalton. Really,

474
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: not for the Bengals because they're gonna draft some quarterback

475
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: with the number one pick, But for Dalton, Dalton, they

476
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: get a job somewhere else to get an opportunity to

477
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: compete for a starting job. Of Philip Rivers retires in

478
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: in l a. Or or to go to Pittsburgh of

479
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:51,239
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger's out. The public is all over the Jets, and

480
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: that has me running for the Hills. The Bengals at

481
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: least have a puncher's chance. They certainly have a shot

482
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: with Andy Dalton to hang around. And the Jets, I

483
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: still don't believe they should be favored by over a

484
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: field goal against anyone. I liked my home dogs, Our

485
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: Jets twenty three, Bengals twenty one that's a cover for

486
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and for the one that got away. I will

487
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: see the penny taking the New York Jets, Jets Jets

488
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: thirty four points in the last three victories. Then keep

489
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: rolling with that. Yeah, well, all good things come to

490
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: an end. All good you will learn that lesson that

491
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: the front running all right? Next up Cleveland five and

492
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: six at Pittsburgh six and five. It's on CBS. I

493
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: An Eagle and Dan Fouts have the call. This game

494
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: opened Pittsburgh by three. The Browns are favored by two.

495
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: The weather calls for light rain forty six degrees at

496
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: Hines Field in beautiful Pittsburgh. I'm gonna take the Steelers

497
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: in this game. Mike tomlin Is is right now like

498
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: a circus clown juggling quarterbacks. You've got Mason Rudolph gone

499
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: to the bench. Now Duck Hodges is taking over. I

500
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: love the whole redneck back story, the ridiculous name, the

501
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: duck calling. But instead of chicken fingers, I guess he

502
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: eats like raccoons stew or something like that. But can

503
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: can the guy play? I I don't know that the

504
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: jury is still out on whether or not you play

505
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: the Steelers offense is gonna be dumbed down here. They

506
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: have been even with Hut. They've been running a dumb

507
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: down office for a couple weeks. But but they've been

508
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: like the ox in the ditch. You know what. They

509
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: can't get out of it. You're in a ditch, you

510
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: can't get out of it. This is a revenge spot

511
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: for Pittsburgh against the team they traditionally beat, who they

512
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: lost to just a couple of weeks ago. And you

513
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: have that cloud of bad blood hanging over this particular game.

514
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: The second that the Browns they're still getting this sugar

515
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: rush from feasting on all these cupcakes. Do they now

516
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: choke on a little piece of banana cream pie on

517
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: the road. The bookmaker knows the public is all over

518
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, so they have to cover themselves and

519
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: they have to, you know, cover their losses. And they

520
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: have the Browns favored by two. This is a five

521
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: point line disparity, meaning again Pittsburgh should be favored by

522
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: three in this game. Instead you're getting five points because

523
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: the Browns are favored by two. I just don't agree

524
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: with that, the thinking that that Cleveland's all in. I've

525
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: been on Cleveland several times. I've bet against Cleveland several times. Listen, Uh,

526
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: look at this. The Browns picked up five points and

527
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: all they did was play the Dolphins in between the

528
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: last time they played the Steelers and Miles Garrett eight

529
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: playing you'll go be bashing people over the head somewhere else.

530
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: But he ain't gonna show up in Pittsburgh. Uh So

531
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: we don't even know if Duck Hodges is that bad.

532
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: He could be fine. As I said, it's it's an

533
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: open question. But just when you think Baker Mayfield has

534
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: turned the corner, that's normally the time a trapdoor opens

535
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 1: up and you fall into a pit of flames. So

536
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: Cleveland should win the game, but they should not be favored.

537
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 1: And Pittsburgh traditionally even with bums at quarterbacks, but a

538
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: very good home team Steelers seventeen. Brown's sixteen penny gun

539
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 1: with the Cleveland Browns and Bernie cos Are Birdy Cosa.

540
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: I think Ozzy Newsom's gonna have a big game. I

541
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: believe that if you go downlast Webster Slaughter could be

542
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: the key of that. What about Dante Stalwarth it's more

543
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: of a newer generation Brown player. I just don't keep

544
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: him out of the driver's seat. You'll be alright, right,

545
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: dirty days manslaughter, it's reasonable. All right, let's go to

546
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: Oatland six and five at Kansas City seven and four.

547
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: Notice that we're not we're not getting trivia this week.

548
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: That's uh, that's a good job by you. Well, it's

549
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving week and I just wanna I want to expedite

550
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: the process game. And I know, I know you. You

551
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 1: probably have something to do. You've got to go talk

552
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: to some corporate muckety MUCKs or do some stupid conference calls.

553
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,479
Speaker 1: So we'll we'll just expedite the process. We'll get we'll

554
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: get trivial next week. Okay, can we get trivial next week? Sure? Ye? Alright?

555
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: Oakland six and five Kansas City seven or four. It's

556
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 1: on CBS with Jim Nance and Toe Knee row Bow. Now,

557
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs open at eight and a half point favorite.

558
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: They are favored by ten at Arrowhead Cloudy in thirty

559
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: eight degrees at kick off at Arrowhead Stadium. I'm taking

560
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: the Raiders in this game. Now. I know public perception

561
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: has shifted and people whatever they see they think is

562
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: gonna happen again. And the Raiders played like dog crap.

563
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: They played like dog piss against the Jets in the

564
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,959
Speaker 1: blink of an eye, right, the Raiders. If they just

565
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: squeaked out and win against the Jets, this would have

566
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: set up the epic a f C West Game of

567
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: the year, right underdog story of redemption the football Orphans

568
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: their last year in Oakland before they go to Vegas.

569
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: But now since they lost to the Jets, it's the

570
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: same old Raiders. Now, I'm not gonna tell you they

571
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: didn't play like mongrels in that game. They actually did

572
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: play like mongrels, not only in that game, but the

573
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: game before which they squeaked out a win against the

574
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals. They played like vermin in that game also,

575
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: So there's a couple of dud performances by the Raiders here. Uh,

576
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 1: they had no pulse in the game against the Jets. Now,

577
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: this is a late game, it's not an early game.

578
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: It's against the traditional division rival. But there is a

579
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 1: saying in sports wager, and it's also said by football coach,

580
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: if you get caught in a trap game, which is

581
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: clearly what happened that the Raiders were peeking ahead at

582
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: Kansas City, if you get caught looking ahead in the

583
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: peek a boo, then you've gotta in the game you

584
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: were looking ahead to. And even though this is not

585
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: as sexy matchup because the Raiders lost, if the Raiders

586
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: win this game, they will still be tied with Kansas City.

587
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: And you know, Oakland will be seven and five, Kansas

588
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: City will be seven and five at the end of

589
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: play on Sunday, So it's still a big game. Secondly,

590
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. I know some people love

591
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 1: them because they had a bye week and they had

592
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: to little see Esta in Mexico against the Chargers. But

593
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 1: Kansas City did not impress me in that game. They

594
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: were fortunate to beat the lowly Chargers, and that is

595
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: with Philip Rivers throwing all those interceptions. Now, now that

596
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is the flavor of the month, Patrick Mahomes

597
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 1: has to take a back seat in the pecking order

598
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 1: of NFL quarterbacks, but he could certainly return some market

599
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: share here if he has a big game against the

600
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: Raiders and treats them like silly puppy. I understand Kansas

601
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 1: City is getting some guys back. The Chiefs should win

602
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: this game big. What I happen to love double digit dogs.

603
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 1: And what do I always say when you get over

604
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown in a divisional game? You don't ask questions.

605
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 1: You take the points. The Raiders have to kick knee,

606
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: elbow poked the Chiefs in the eye. Uh to get

607
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: that cover, that backdoor cover. I believe it will happen.

608
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: Chiefs thirty four, Raiders twenty six. Penny also in agreement

609
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: with you and go with the Opalanda Redda's all right.

610
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 1: Next up on Penny versus the Penny the l A Raiders,

611
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: actually the Raiders the l A Rams. Oh boy, why

612
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 1: that cover? L A Rams at five? There's a throwback

613
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: to like the eighties and early nineties, the l A

614
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 1: Ram six and five at the Arizona Cardinals, who are

615
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: three seven and one. It's on Fox and a Man

616
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: that's part of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. A

617
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: proud alumnus Chris Myers along with Darryl Moose Johnson to

618
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: have the call. All now. The Rams opened a three

619
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. They're favored by four in

620
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: this game. The weather, it's gonna be sunny fifty nine

621
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 1: degrees at kickoff at State Farms Stadium in Arizona and

622
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna surprise you guesscan I as an as an

623
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 1: active charity. I am gonna take the guy riding the

624
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,919
Speaker 1: short bus. Yes, I'm gonna do it. I'm doing it now.

625
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,800
Speaker 1: Now for before you say I'm a prison of the moment,

626
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: It's not just because the Rams got steam rolled by

627
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: the Ravens on Monday night. Unless it is just because

628
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,879
Speaker 1: the Rams got steam rolled by the Ravens on Monday night.

629
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,799
Speaker 1: You have the perfect storm working against Los Angeles. You've

630
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,919
Speaker 1: got the distraction of Thanksgiving weekend. You have them as

631
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: a road favorite against the team they traditionally beat, an

632
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 1: opponent that you do not get up for. You are

633
00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 1: coming off an emotional prime time loss where you were

634
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 1: emasculated by Lamar Jackson. Look like you should be playing

635
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: pop Orner football instead of the NFL. All of these

636
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: things are working against the Rams. From the psychology psychology

637
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: part of gambling, Sean McVeigh had no answers to Lamar Jackson.

638
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: This is the kind of neutering that takes place the

639
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: the and Lingers. Uh. The Ravens have the Rams balls

640
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: on a shelf somewhere in Maryland right now. Uh, good

641
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: luck getting back that back the Rams are a more

642
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: talented team. I believe they are a better team than

643
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:42,240
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, and all things being equal, they should absolutely

644
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: win this game. But when you handicap a game, you

645
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 1: gotta look at all these other things and all of that.

646
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: Every box is checked against the l A Rams right there,

647
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: they're they're getting close to give up mode. It looked

648
00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 1: like they gave up against the Ravens. Now. Secondly, you

649
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: are what your record says you are. The Cardinals are

650
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: one of the worst teams in the NFL. So this

651
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: is not a confidence play on Arizona Kyler Murray. As

652
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: we have pointed out, we're the only ones to do

653
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 1: this because we're the grown ups here. This guy's been

654
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: a Mama Luke Alright, his numbers are misleading. He's fatten

655
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 1: up his stats and games the Cardinals were way behind,

656
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: and and so you know, he's not as good as

657
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: his numbers. In a kay even though his numbers aren't

658
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: all that good. The Cardinals defensively are a football atrocity.

659
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: They are second worst to the oh and eleven Bengals.

660
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 1: And yet even with that, I still believe that Jared

661
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,800
Speaker 1: Golf will be flummix going against Arizona the last three games.

662
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: Golf has no touchdowns, five interceptions, and a passer rating

663
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: below sixty. There's no way on God's green Earth that

664
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 1: I am gonna bet on the Rams until Jared Goff

665
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,320
Speaker 1: either gets benched. I'd rather bet on Blake Bortles or

666
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: he proves that he is not a fraud. Give me

667
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: Ale Gator Arms. Murray the oompa loompa of the NFL

668
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 1: Cardinals twenty Rams seventeen. Penny likes the way you think

669
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: and go with the up and coming Cayler Murray and

670
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. You love, you love Shorty. You your

671
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: favorite movie was Get Shorty Right? That was? I think

672
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 1: you have vastly under estimated the power of Cayler Murray,

673
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: even in his rookie campaign. So he will. He will

674
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: not make you eat crow this weekend since you have

675
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 1: taken him and there's in the Cardinals. But he will

676
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,240
Speaker 1: surprise you when you're number two. Yes, you, You've always

677
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: had a place for the pips weeak. You like the

678
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: guy's barely bigger than a garden. Do you understand that

679
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: your pairs he can play? He has played, He's played

680
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 1: great this season he's played great. What I think I

681
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: watch football? Wait? Wait, wait wait you said the word great.

682
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: You use the adjective great. I have I did I

683
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: want you as a teacher. If I had had you

684
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: as a teacher, guest scout, I would have been a

685
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: I would have several degrees if I had had you

686
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 1: as a professor, and instead you have how many? I have? Zero?

687
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: Not a hey, schmuck, I have agree from the streets,

688
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: streets of hard knocks, all right, I have, I have

689
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: won the hard Marcus Mariota got benched. He had a

690
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: higher passer rating than Kyler Murray has right now. Gardner

691
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: Minshew also got benched. Guess what higher passer rating than

692
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray has right now. And according to David Gascon,

693
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: who clearly shows sympathy because Kyler Murray is a teeny

694
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: leeny eaty bitty little spider, uh you you feel bad

695
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: for him, and so as an act of charity, you're

696
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 1: pulling for the guy who's small potatoes. He's got no

697
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: offensive line, he's got absolutely no running game, he's got

698
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: very few weapons on the outside, and he has an

699
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: atrocious defense. Yes, I actually think he's a pretty darn

700
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: good quarterback in his rookie season, despite all that working

701
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: against him, hold On said, I'm gonna play some music.

702
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I've got the world's smallest violin. I'm gonna

703
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,239
Speaker 1: play that for Kyler Murray. Okay, can I do that? Yes? Yeah,

704
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 1: you can do whatever you want. Yeah, that's right, all right,

705
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: go choke up some ravioli, all right. Next the l

706
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: A Chargers four and seven at Denver three and eight.

707
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: It's on CBS. Andrew Catalan and James Lofton have the call.

708
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: The Chargers opened and underdog Broncos were originally favored by

709
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: one and a half, but now the Charges are favored

710
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,840
Speaker 1: by two and a half. I don't understand this mostly

711
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: sunny thirty five degrees at kickoff for your favorite NFL team.

712
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: Gag on, you love the Broncos who played in power

713
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: field at Mile High. I'm taking the Broncos. I'm riding

714
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 1: with the horses this week. Now. To me, this is

715
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,800
Speaker 1: an even matchup. The Charges of the NFL's two ranked team,

716
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: the Broncos of the ranked team according to Football Outsiders,

717
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: So two even teams. I don't understand how the Bolts

718
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: are favorite in this game. Denver traditionally has been a

719
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,800
Speaker 1: tough place to play. Uh, it's just all because Derwin James.

720
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 1: The safety is coming back to the charges. Are you

721
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: telling me a safety not not a quarterback. We're not

722
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: talking about a quarterback. We're talking about safety. That that

723
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: is why the charges are favored on the road. I

724
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 1: don't get it now. Philip Rivers over the last four

725
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 1: weeks has not only been a quarterback. He has been

726
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 1: the thirty first ranked quarterback in a thirty two quarterback league.

727
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,360
Speaker 1: He has been number four. He is aging before our eyes.

728
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: He has continued to be reckless. Seven interceptions the past

729
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: two games. He's also mixed in a couple of fumbles.

730
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 1: He is as bad as any quarterback in the NFL.

731
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 1: Right now. He's a hot mess. I've seen no evidence

732
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: that he's gonna turn this thing around. Everyone says, well,

733
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 1: he'll be fine, don't worry. He's never has three bad

734
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: games in a row. Okay, all right. The Bolts offensive

735
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: line still blows. They still think, uh steak. And then

736
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: you've got Vic Fangio, who's supposed to be a defensive wizard.

737
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,360
Speaker 1: He hasn't been so far. He's got his own quarterback

738
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 1: conundrum now, I would love the Broncos. This would be

739
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:23,919
Speaker 1: one of my better players of Drew Lock plays, because

740
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: I think Drew Lock will be all right who have

741
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 1: some beginner's luck. He isn't likely to start this game,

742
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 1: at least at the time we're doing the podcast, but

743
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: could come off the bench in relief. Brandon Allen is

744
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,280
Speaker 1: a limp noodle, is what he is. Right, he needs

745
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 1: a little blue pill. Uh he's lethargic. He's just he's

746
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: a junior varsity level quarterback. He's not a starting quarterback.

747
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: And nevertheless, the value tholways on the Broncos because interceptions

748
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 1: create opportunity for an underdog. Denver will play a very conservative,

749
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: close to the vest offense. Uh We talked about that

750
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: remedial game plan where you don't have a good quarterback,

751
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 1: you just try to not make mistakes. And uh so

752
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 1: I had a lot of swing passes, bubble screens, try

753
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,439
Speaker 1: to run, run early, run late, ground and pound all

754
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: that kind of football. So if you do that, you

755
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over and you expect Rivers to

756
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 1: have at least two interceptions. I'm taking the Broncos to

757
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:33,759
Speaker 1: win the game outright. Denver twenty four The Chargers, and

758
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: he was going with the Broncos as well. No surprise. Yeah,

759
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: you can't bet on the gun Slinger, the aging gun Slinger.

760
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: Not the way to go, not a good winning formula,

761
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: guest gun not at all all right, Uh, Next up

762
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football, New England Tenant one at Houston, seven

763
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 1: and four on and b C with Al Michaels and

764
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: Chris collins with you know Michael's I I know you

765
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:05,400
Speaker 1: saw this last night. Michaels did not call the NBC

766
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 1: game on Thursday night because he's so old now he

767
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 1: wants to enjoy Thanksgiving. So and I think he's only

768
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: in his contract he only works one game a week,

769
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,839
Speaker 1: and so he couldn't do both that game on Thanksgiving

770
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,760
Speaker 1: and the Sunday night game, so he chose the Sunday

771
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: night game in Houston and Collinsworth also did not do

772
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 1: the game on Thanksgiving. Well, I'm gonna take I'm gonna

773
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 1: take the Patriots here that Patriots are three point favorite.

774
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: They opened four and a half, so small road favorite,

775
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: clear and sixty degrees at kickoff in the Dome at

776
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: NRG Stadium in Houston. Now, first of all, this is

777
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:44,840
Speaker 1: another chapter in the teacher versus the pupil. Matchup of

778
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's coaching tree. Belichick against Bill O'Brien, a disciple

779
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: of his, has. They've coached against each other five times.

780
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: Belichick is five and all. Now, some of those games

781
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: the Texans were bad. Many of those games the Texas

782
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 1: were pretty good, had nice records like they do now

783
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 1: seven and four record. In fact, Belichick that five and

784
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: old record is by far his best record against any

785
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: former assistant. This is a gigantic coaching mismatch. In fact,

786
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 1: Belichick against all of his former assistance has He's coached

787
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:23,279
Speaker 1: eighteen games. Against his former assistance, he's nine and nine,

788
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: So that means using mallar math. Against anyone other than

789
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, who used to coach on belichick staff, he's

790
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: four and nine, but against O'Brien, five and oh. The

791
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 1: one monkey wrench for the Patriots is Tom Brady's tender elbow,

792
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: which got extra treatment after the Cowboy game. But let's

793
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 1: be honest here, Ill. We love Brady, but the Patriots

794
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 1: also just try to win the turnover battle. They want

795
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 1: to maintain offensive balance, but they also run a very

796
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 1: safe offensive game plan, which requires Belichick or Brady rather

797
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 1: to throw a lot of dump all off in short passes,

798
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 1: high percentage passes. And Brady is so smart he rarely

799
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,439
Speaker 1: makes the wrong throw so he doesn't turn the ball over,

800
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 1: he covers for his offensive line. Those are all reasons

801
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:14,440
Speaker 1: to like the Patriots in this particular game. Now. Secondly,

802
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots are going to have to repeat the script

803
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: from these recent games. Right they have to play a

804
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: wonky plotting style of offense. As he said, limit the mistakes,

805
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 1: hold on the ball while the defense can create some

806
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 1: turbulence against the Shawn Watson. There is opportunity here against

807
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,760
Speaker 1: the Shawn Watson. It is a formula that has stood

808
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,800
Speaker 1: the test of time for Belichick. Against these high flying,

809
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 1: one dimensional teams Houston, they have to play at a

810
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,760
Speaker 1: frenetic pace in the passing game. They are a one

811
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,959
Speaker 1: trick pony. They struggle to run the ball. If you're

812
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 1: the defense, if you're the defensive coordinator and you know

813
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 1: that team struggles to run the ball, that sets up

814
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 1: a hyper aggress of defense, a chance to be a

815
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 1: ball hawking defense because you know you're gonna be throwing

816
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,359
Speaker 1: a lot the other team is that you can mix

817
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 1: in some exotic blitzes and change it up and and

818
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: just mess with Deshaun Watson. Uh so, yeah, I love

819
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 1: the Patriots defense in this game. And and the other

820
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: way to bet on the Patriots has a bet on

821
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: the defense. Uh the Texans with this style of play,

822
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 1: it's either boom or bust. I'm expecting a lot of mistakes.

823
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 1: Patriots twenty three the Texans sixteen. Man, the pay is

824
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,400
Speaker 1: gone with the turbulence of the defense and the Patriots

825
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: taken New England. All right? Next up, Monday Night Football.

826
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: This is the last game, will wrap up the Turkey

827

Speaker 1: you're a big fan of his brought cast team. A

831
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of gravy on a Thanksgiving weekend. Yes,

832
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: this is gravy on top of gravy, on top of gravy.

833
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 1: Yes it is. Uh, how many Thanksgiving cliche's will Joe

834
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: Tessa Tore throw out on the broadcast? Well we'll find out.

835
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:18,919
Speaker 1: But the line of this game Seattle open a three

836
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,480
Speaker 1: point favorite. They are favored by three. It'll be cloudy

837
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 1: forty degrees that kick off at Century Link Field in Seattle.

838
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: Remember on the if you download the other podcast, the

839
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: Mallard Man March and schedule to take place in Seattle.

840
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 1: So I have a special place in my heart for

841
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 1: the people of Seattle, the Mallard Militia, men and women,

842
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,720
Speaker 1: the p Ones that are holding this event on December

843
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 1: twenty nine. More on that on the other podcast. But

844
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I gotta take the vikings here. As a gambler,

845
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,799
Speaker 1: I gotta take the vikings. I'll tell you why. In

846
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 1: the past you would always bet against Kirk Cousins because

847
00:50:55,040 --> 00:51:00,319
Speaker 1: he was jinx in prime time games. I that was

848
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 1: always the argument. The guy would be fine at one

849
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:09,080
Speaker 1: o'clock in the afternoon or noon Midwestern time, uh newon kickoffs.

850
00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,439
Speaker 1: But but against the better teams in the prime time games,

851
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,280
Speaker 1: he's like, well, Cousins is two and oh this season

852
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: in night games. He put up an oil painting against

853
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in Dallas not that long ago, and the

854
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 1: one week spot Seattle has h to exploit here. And

855
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 1: the one thing that concerns me about the vikings is

856
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 1: the butterfingers. Cousins has eight fumbles. He's only been sacked

857
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: twenty two times. Ball security. That can lead to a

858
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: big flip in what you handicap in a game. Now. Secondly,

859
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll check this out. Since he became the coach

860
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,280
Speaker 1: in Seattle back in almost a decade, there have only

861
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 1: been three quarterbacks that have won multiple games on the

862
00:51:53,800 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 1: road in Seattle. Only three Carson Palmer retired, Matt the

863
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,400
Speaker 1: Ice of the Falcons, and Jared Goff. Believe it or not,

864
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:08,760
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has already won a game in the Pacific

865
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 1: Northwest back when he was with the Washington Redskins. I

866
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 1: believe it was in a couple of years ago in

867
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 1: uh he can add his name to that that rare

868
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 1: list with a win here. The Seahawks have been playing

869
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:27,320
Speaker 1: Russian Roulette all season. They have been weaning by very

870
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:32,400
Speaker 1: thin margins. Here they almost lost at home to the Bengals,

871
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 1: Bucks and Rams. It took a missed field goal by

872
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: the Rams kicker there the Legatron character for the Rams

873
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 1: lose the Buccaneers. Some crazy things happened for Tampa Bay

874
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 1: to win that game, and the Seahawks were blown out

875
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,280
Speaker 1: by the Ravens and uh in the Saints in Seattle,

876
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: they've got issues. Despite their GATTI nine and two record,

877
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,359
Speaker 1: it has not been smooth sailing for the Sea Birds. UH.

878
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: They have problem they have problems in their secondary they

879
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: have problems on their offensive line. You add on that

880
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer has been traditionally great when given extra time

881
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,359
Speaker 1: to prepare. That's what the Vikings have here. They were

882
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: on vacation last week. It all adds up from a

883
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,319
Speaker 1: gambling standpoint to take the Vikings. Now. Remember, I want

884
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 1: the Seahawks to win this game. I hope I'm wrong

885
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 1: because that makes the Mallard Man March, Mallard Stock Mallar

886
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: Palooza a much bigger deal December twenty nine. But Vikings

887
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 1: thirty three, Seahawks thirty your final penny looking at the

888
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 1: magic number three and going at the Minnesota Games, and

889
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 1: that is it. We put the baby to bed gas

890
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 1: On and I want the people to know too. Podcasts

891
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:52,440
Speaker 1: have dropped holiday weekend. The podcast machine does not stop

892
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: showing you the great the determination that I have to

893
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 1: come in and do this podcast. And I think the

894
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 1: audio quality on this better than any other. I guess

895
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: we've done so far. I'd have to agree part of

896
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 1: that reasons because like a good lead, I have a

897
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 1: voice that kind of masks the deficiencies of your pipes

898
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: in the old and rotten age that you live in.

899
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: So um, I agree with you. It's well said. Yes

900
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:23,879
Speaker 1: again David gascon proving he is the narcissist. Narcissist here

901
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 1: on the show, very superficial and whatnot there, And uh,

902
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,200
Speaker 1: I think, well, in another life you were a prima donna,

903
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 1: right as that was your job before prima donna. I hope.

904
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 1: I wish there was some kind of way to prove

905
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 1: that to would be nice to see what kind of

906
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:42,400
Speaker 1: money I had back in an alternate life. But uh,

907
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 1: but yeah, right now I'm just living the American dream, dude,

908
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 1: which is holding the water for Ben Mallory. Yeah, in

909
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,319
Speaker 1: life there are good guys and villains. I'm the good guy.

910
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 1: You're the villain. That's the way. Anyway, have a great weekend,

911
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 1: way back to the radio Sunday night into Monday, and
