What's going on? Howard? 14 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 3: Is your holiday? 15 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: Oh? Good? Good holiday? Went back to Philly, saw some 16 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 2: family quick visits. Still football season, no real breaks here, 17 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,199 Speaker 2: but it's nice to see the family had a winning 18 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 2: week in the NFL. Wish it would have gotten my 19 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 2: total home. That Steelers chiefs under was so brutal under 20 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,639 Speaker 2: forty five, Tomlin kicking a field goal down thirty to nothing, 21 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: and then of course they scored a touchdown on fourth 22 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 2: down after giving up another field goal on a fumble 23 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: right before then, I went against you with the with 24 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: the Bengals, but I mean it ended up being Josh 25 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 2: Johnson and then the whole Raven's defense ended up being out, 26 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: and you know, the Vikings till you give up hump 27 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: return touchdown, you lose feel into an injury. But hopefully 28 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 2: with these new COVID rules, you know, we're not going 29 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: to see as many, you know, mass you know, massive 30 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: amount of players being out for teams down the stretch 31 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: because it was getting a little crazy and it was 32 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: just making handicap in the NFL a complete shore and 33 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: just almost a guessing game in some instances. 34 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 3: So yeah, let's get into the week seventeen preview. We 35 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: got no Thursday night football, so we'll jump right into 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: the Sunday six Pack presented by the Athletic Brewing Company 37 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 3: before we do a couple quick notes.

So feeling pretty good. Let's finish strong, Stuck, 52 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 3: Let's get into the Sunday six pack. 53 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: There's action. 54 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 4: Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. 55 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 3: All right, Stuck, still a very close score here. We're 56 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 3: doing one point now for the three picks the total, 57 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 3: and then one point for our teaser, just to kind 58 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: of reduce some of the variants of two point plays 59 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 3: in you know, COVID, so forty eight, forty seven. 60 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 2: I'm up, it'll probably go back to like that, a 61 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 2: bigger point value for the playoffs if we if things 62 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: settle down. But I think this is the way to 63 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: go for the final weeks of the regular season. All right, 64 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go for my first pick of the Week 65 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: seventeen Sunday six pack. I'm going with the Washington Football 66 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 2: Team plus three and a half against the Philadelphia Eagles 67 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: at bet MGM. So this fits a number of different 68 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: angles that I like, and I'm gonna have an article 69 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: up on actionwork dot com the Action Work Out next week. 70 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: It also applies to Week seventeen. Usually it's week sixteen 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: and seventeen, but there's eighteen weeks this year, but the 72 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: final two weeks. Historically, if you fade teams that need 73 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: to win for the playoffs against teams that have been 74 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: eliminated from the playoffs, you are very profitable doing so 75 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: over the final two weeks of the season. And the 76 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 2: reason for that is these teams that are in or 77 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 2: you know that are out, you know they can play free, 78 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: play loose, and you know, all the pressures on the 79 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: other team. And then generally speaking, the market tends to 80 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 2: be overinflated on these teams that need to win. So 81 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: all of details and all that outline a number of 82 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 2: different scenarios, but you know I can speak to let's 83 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 2: just speak to this particular game. A couple of weeks ago, 84 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 2: the Eagles were playing Washington Football team at home and 85 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 2: Eagles were off the bye. The look ahead line for 86 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 2: that game was Eagles minus two and a half, and 87 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: then it reopened at minus three after mcclaorn was maybe 88 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: going to be out, and then obviously it took off 89 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 2: and it went up to ten because Washington's whole team 90 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 2: was out and Garrett Gilbert was starting. So like the 91 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 2: you know, the fair market was right around Eagles minus three, 92 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: and you know, I had a slightly higher but not much, 93 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: and now you're getting the Eagles are minus three and 94 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: a half a couple weeks later on the road in Washington. 95 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: There's not much home field advantage for either team. It's 96 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: a divisional game, not much travel, a lot of familiarity, 97 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: and you had to adjust Washington down after last week's disaster. 98 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: But it's a team that was dealing with just a 99 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: depleted roster and just COVID issues. Over two weeks that's 100 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 2: basically all cleared out. I think they only have two 101 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: guys left on the COVID list. They're both backups. They 102 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 2: should have, you know, everyone that's available, not injured should 103 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 2: play here. And I just think that this is a 104 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 2: complete overreaction to what happened to Washington last week on 105 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: National TV against Dallas, getting completely embarrassed by the way 106 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: they didn't cover by more than twenty eight points. Talk 107 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: about this a lot teams coming off a game where 108 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 2: they didn't cover by at least twenty eight points. Since 109 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 2: two thousand and three, seventy eight, four, six and five 110 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: against the spread, that's sixty three percent. So that speaks 111 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: to the you know, the general the general nature of 112 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: buying low and selling high in the NFL. You should 113 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 2: get a spirit an effort from Washington, who can try 114 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: and spoil their rival season, A team they just lost 115 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: to by the way, a team they just saw a 116 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 2: unique offensive Philly runs. And I just think that this 117 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 2: Eagles team, I like some things that they're doing. But 118 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 2: you know, people are getting a little too high on 119 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: I mean, here are their previous wins, so it's like 120 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 2: the Jets, the Giants backups and Washington's backups. Before that 121 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 2: they lost to the Giants on the road at thirteen 122 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: to seven. Here are their wins on the year, the Falcons, 123 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: the Panthers, the Lions, the Broncos, the Saints with Simeon, 124 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: the Jets, Washington with Gilbert, and Giants with from they 125 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 2: would beat a single team with a winning record all year, 126 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: So I think this is an overreaction. I just am 127 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: taking the value with the number here, especially over a 128 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 2: key number of a field goal. I can't get to 129 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: three year, so I'm definitely gonna take three and a half. 130 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: Buy low, sell high spot in the division game late 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 2: in the year. Should have a close to full roster 132 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: for Washington, and people forget that this is the same 133 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: Washington team that you know. It just shows you the 134 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: ebbs and flows of the NFL market and narratives, and 135 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: you know, Washington just a couple of weeks ago was 136 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 2: the darling of the NFL. Right, They beat the Bucks 137 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: at home, and then they went to the Panthers and 138 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: they won. Then they beat the Seahawks at home, and 139 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: they went to Vegas and beat the Raiders. They won 140 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 2: four straight, you know. Then they lose to the Cowboys 141 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: at home in the game with just a ton of turnovers. 142 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 2: He actually had a chance late. And then they get 143 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: COVID right, so like, and then the roster's just decimated 144 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: for two games, and all of a sudden everyone has 145 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: fallen out of love and the market I think has 146 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 2: gone too low here, So give me. Washington plus three 147 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: and a half at home against the Eagles in a 148 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 2: game that I think should be under a field goal. 149 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, late in the season, home dog. Not too many 150 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: opportunities this week to play home dogs. I'll get to 151 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 3: when that. I like, uh in a second too. But 152 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 3: I think this time of the year, you got some 153 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: you got some crowds, uh, Like, I mean, my only 154 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: thing with Washington, I have had trouble getting a feel 155 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 3: for this team just they've been so inconsistent or not 156 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say it consistent. It's been like streaky almost. 157 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: But do you think there's gonna be any like residual 158 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 3: effects from like that whole sideline Frucus that happened with 159 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 3: a pain and and Johnathan down. Do you think that's 160 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 3: gonna kind of galvanize them? 161 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think that could be a rallying point. And 162 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: they they knew each other from college, and I think 163 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: that that that was much ado about nothing and from 164 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: everything that they've said, I don't know. I think it 165 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 2: could be a rallying point if anything, but I don't 166 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: think it's anything at all. Yeah. 167 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 3: I might join you on this one. Egos. Also, they 168 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 3: started real slow even last week against the Giants. Uh, 169 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 3: you know, played a really good second half. But if 170 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: they do that against and they started slow against Washington 171 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 3: a week before, so you figure at some point that 172 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 3: might catch up to them. Divisional road game, Laight in 173 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 3: a year, Washington is are they eliminated or they technically 174 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 3: still alive? 175 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 2: Washington is a seven percent chance to make the playoffs 176 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 2: if they win out there at about thirty percent. 177 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: But this is their season. This, this is their season. 178 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: No, but Washington will win this and then lose at 179 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 2: the Giants somehow. That's the way these things were. 180 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, but no, this makes that basically like Washington even 181 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: more just because I think if you're ever gonna get 182 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 3: one more effort from Washington like it's going to be 183 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 3: in this game, and then you kind of go from there. 184 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, don't disagree at all. For my first pick 185 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 3: and the second overall pick of the week, seventeen Sunday 186 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 3: six pack, I'm going with the Cincinnati Bengals plus five 187 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 3: and a half at bet MGM against the Kansas City 188 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 3: Chiefs at home. Man, it's been a bumpy ride with 189 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: the Bengals. I feel like I win three in a 190 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 3: row to the Bengals and I lose one, then it's 191 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 3: like it's up and down. But I gotta jump back 192 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 3: on the Bengals, yere. I just don't think the Chiefs. 193 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: I know they they kind of wallop Pittsburgh. I expected 194 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 3: that if they were anywhere near healthy. But Pittsburgh their 195 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 3: defense is railing right now. They can't do anything on offense. 196 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 3: I think this Bengals team is a completely different team 197 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 3: and one of those teams that will give Kansas City trouble. 198 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 3: And like Kansas City's had a couple of big bow 199 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: out wins in there, you know Raiders. Then they beat 200 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: the you know, the the Steelers. They kind of pulled 201 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 3: away from the Broncos weight. I thought it was more 202 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 3: of the Broncos mistakes. But I think this is still 203 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 3: a flawed Kansas City team. Their defense is getting better, 204 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 3: but now you gotta face Borrow fresh off a five 205 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 3: hundred yard game. You gotta face you gotta legitimately guard 206 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: you know, three different wide receivers. This team is the 207 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 3: best team in the league. And I've been talking about 208 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 3: this all year. Against man coverage on offense, Kansas City's 209 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: fifth highest man coverage rate. So you're either gonna get 210 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 3: a defense that's gonna have to go out of its 211 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 3: comfort zone a little bit. Spags does that, so I 212 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 3: could see them playing more zone here. But or you're 213 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: gonna get a defense that kind of meshes perfectly with 214 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 3: what Cincinnati does best on offense. So either way, I 215 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 3: think that's advantaged Cincinnati. 216 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: It blitz a lot too, Top ten number one against 217 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: the Blitz. 218 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 3: Right, So it's it's you're either gonna take them out 219 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 3: of the comfort zone, which is always a win, or 220 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 3: it's just got a great matchup for Cincinnati anyway. Then 221 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: you have the fact that Cincinnati's improving seventeenths in DV 222 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 3: away for the year, but twelfth be weighted, so that 223 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 3: waits the more recent games, So they're twelveth Cincinnati. Kansas 224 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 3: City's fifth. They haven't really changed, they've been six for 225 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 3: the year, fifth weighted. So you're getting a really good 226 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: Kansas City team against a good Bengals team, but you're 227 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: getting five and a half and you're getting the Bengals 228 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 3: at home, so I think that's worth it. You look 229 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: at Kansas City since midseason of last year, and that's 230 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: even with them kind of riding the ship a little bit, 231 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 3: you know, on this big winning streak. Now, Kansas City 232 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 3: has a favorite since mid twenty twenty, including the postseason 233 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 3: seven and fourteen against the spread, failing to cover by 234 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 3: an average of two point eight points per game. So 235 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: I think that, you know, this is still a Kansas 236 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: City team that against the team like the Bengals against 237 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 3: the quality team, it's not gonna be It's not even 238 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: a gimme win, especially on a row. You're not an narrowhead. 239 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 3: This is every week we kind of say this, but 240 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: it's gonna be like one of the most important Bengals 241 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 3: games that they've had in a long time here. I mean, 242 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 3: you know, chance to get to what is it, ten 243 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 3: wins now in the season, kind of lock up, keep 244 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 3: going towards locking up that AFC nors. I think these 245 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 3: teams are a lot closer together than they were, you know, 246 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 3: probably middle of the season or even early in the 247 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 3: season with Cincinnati playing better and then Kansas City. You know, 248 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 3: they're on this three games streak of scoring thirty or 249 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 3: more points. Teams like this from week ten on. It's 250 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 3: just so hard to kind of keep this up. And 251 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 3: we've seen this with Kansas City. They've gone cold a 252 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 3: bunch of times, but teams on three game streaks of 253 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 3: scoring thirty plus from week ten on against non o 254 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 3: weite teams, So teams that have won, you know, fewer 255 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 3: than two thirds of their games. The team that's going 256 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 3: against the team with the streak of scoring thirty plus 257 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 3: the Bengals sixty six, forty one and two sixty two 258 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: percent against the spread according to our Actual Labs data 259 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 3: ROI of nineteen percent. You get Logan Wilson back. He 260 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 3: practiced in full, so you have another extra linebacker. 261 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: Did he practicing full to that? Yeah, that's that's enormous 262 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: because PRA I mean, Gaither's already out and practice went 263 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 2: on the COVID list. He could obviously come back now. 264 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: But Logan Wilson's their best cover wing backer, just up 265 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: against Kelsey, who's obviously going to get his But yeah. 266 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: I mean we don't know where what exactly how Kelsey's 267 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 3: doing either. I mean, he was gonna get queer, then 268 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 3: he didn't get queered, because you know, sometimes guys coming 269 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: off the COVID list, you don't know they're they're also 270 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 3: without probably gonna be without Edwards z Ware, so that 271 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 3: that still takes a little dent out of that backfield. 272 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 3: But I just think this is gonna be one of 273 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: those games where you see the Kansas City that has 274 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 3: the Kings in the armor versus the Kansas City, you know, 275 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: against Pittsburgh or the Raiders, who they just match up 276 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: really well. Again, So give me Cincinnati plus five and 277 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 3: a half. 278 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, I completely agree. I'm waiting on the sex here 279 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: and can spags is I like it a five and 280 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 2: a half, but yeah, I'm gonna wait out. You know, 281 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: you're in that dead range to see if we get 282 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 2: a six same and you know you have COVID, you 283 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 2: could have COVID news, so there's no reason to rush 284 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 2: right now. A lot of five and half. That's we 285 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 2: have to really consider with these with this COVID news 286 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 2: this year, it's like, are you around a key number? 287 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: So is it worth grabbing it earlier or not? In 288 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: this case, I don't think it is obviously for this contest, 289 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: and we have to. By the way, Knidy's running a 290 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: lot more some Cover two over the past six weeks. 291 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 2: I think that's working. But their defense, which is improved, 292 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 2: right you get Chris Jones in, you get some guys healthier, 293 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 2: you make some personnel changes. Their defense is better, but 294 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 2: it's still not a great defense, and they are running 295 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: extremely well, Like if you look at the efficiency of 296 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 2: like points per opportunity, finishing drives. I mean, they're just 297 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 2: at an unsustainable rate right now. Like there's massive regression 298 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 2: coming in both turnovers, points per opportunity, things of that nature, 299 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 2: which I think Cincinnati can take advantage of against a 300 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: team that likes to run a lot of man likes 301 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: to run, you know, likes to blitz a lot. And 302 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: it's where Burrow thrides look sometimes and see is it's worse. 303 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 2: It's its worst own enemy, and that's because of the 304 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 2: play calling and they want to run it too much 305 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: at times. That's not a bad thing here because Kansas 306 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 2: City's run defense is still bad and Joe Mixon, I 307 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 2: think can have a big day here, especially in the 308 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: Cincinnati run defense has been really good. Yeah, keep it 309 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: on DJ readers status. But there's a great equalizer here, 310 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 2: and especially when you have a bad run defense and 311 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: a good run offense, and that's the wind and the weather. 312 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: So I agree, I think this is too many points 313 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: and a perfect example of what the Chiefs regression that's 314 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 2: coming on defense is. You know, just take a look 315 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: at that that that Broncos game. I mean the Broncos, 316 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: who had like four hundred and fifty yards, went up 317 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: and down the field and just would you know, get 318 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 2: to the five and then turn it over on downs. 319 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: And that's a perfect example of what's been happening lately, 320 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 2: you know. And besides that they played, you know, you 321 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: want to talk about who they played over this stretch. 322 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 2: The defense has been better, right, But they played the Giants, 323 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: they played the Packers without Aaron Rodgers, you know, they 324 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: played the a Raiders offense trending way down. They played 325 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: the Cowboys without their receivers, right, they played the Broncos again, 326 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: who had like four hundred yards. They played the Raiders again, 327 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 2: and they played the Chargers who went up and down 328 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 2: the field, and then they played a poverty Steelers offense. 329 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: So let's pump the brakes on the Chiefs defense. It's 330 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: no longer the worst defense in the NFL, but it's 331 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: still a below average defense overall. So I agree, I 332 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: like sense here all right. For my second pick of 333 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: the week, seventeen Sunday six pack, I'm going with my 334 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens plus three and a half at bet MGM 335 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: against the Los Angeles Rams. Scary game to bat, but 336 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 2: you know, look it's you're really buying the Ravens in 337 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: a classic hardball spot after getting embarrassed last week. Harble 338 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 2: by the way thirty nine to twenty nine three against 339 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 2: the spread as an underdog twenty seven, eighteen and three 340 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 2: when catching three or more than sixty percent for you 341 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 2: trend people Stafford against a team with a winning record 342 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: thirty one four forty nine and two against the spreads 343 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: in two three. That's the least profitable out of two 344 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty seven quarterbacks. It's thirty eight point eight 345 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: percent against the spread negative twenty four point three percent ROI. 346 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: You know, it's back to back East Coast games for 347 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 2: the Rams. This is a one o'clock start. This is 348 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: for the Ravens season. This is a Ravens team that 349 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 2: was just completely decimated at almost every position because of injuries, 350 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 2: because of COVID, you name it, and they should be 351 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 2: in much better shape this week. Lamar Jackson practiced today, 352 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: limping around a lot. I don't I mean, obviously you're 353 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 2: not gonna shoot him up for practice, but he's out 354 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 2: there on a Wednesday. He's gonna play. He's gonna start. 355 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 2: From all of my intel, I can't say that for sure, 356 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 2: but all the intel that I gathered, he's gonna start 357 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 2: the game. You're gonna get shot up. And if he 358 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 2: can't go, Huntly is available, So you won't have Josh 359 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 2: Johnson out there. You also have a number of other 360 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: guys who should come off the COVID and then most importantly, 361 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 2: you will have a more competent secondary. You know, when 362 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 2: you look at last week, they the Ravens had one 363 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 2: of their top eight corners available in the second half. 364 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: You had Anthony aber Go down with an injury. You 365 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: had Tavon Young who left with an injury. You're you're 366 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: talking about a team that had a practice squad player 367 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: and a guy they just signed off the street as 368 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: your top two corners last week. I mean, it doesn't 369 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 2: get any worse to that against Borrow. I mean it 370 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: was it was bad. Jimmy Smith off the COVID list. 371 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 2: Teyvon Young should be back, Chris Westry is back, like 372 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: these are. It's obviously not Marlon Humphrey, it's obviously not 373 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 2: Marcus Peters, but these are huge upgrades in the secondary. 374 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 2: You also have a little weather that can help neutralize this. 375 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 2: And you know, I think that just this line is 376 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: just crazy over catching the Ravens over a field goal 377 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: at home, plastic Harball spot. You have a little neutralizing 378 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: factor in the wind here. Raven's run defense has been 379 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 2: awesome all year, one of the best in the NFL. 380 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 2: That's how the Rams like to set up everything. And 381 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 2: you know there's gonna be some win which might limit 382 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: stafford a little bit. I think the Ravens ugly this up. 383 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 2: Big special teams advantage, big coaching advantage here, huge coaching 384 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: advantage in strategic decisions, which I think could end up 385 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: playing a role here. John Harball, one of the sharpest 386 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 2: coaches in the NFL. Sean McVay, as I always call 387 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 2: him on Twitter, is a fake sharp If you look 388 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: at all of like the fourth down decisions when you 389 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 2: should have went for it versus not over the past 390 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 2: five years, the person the coach who has made the 391 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: the fewest amount of positive decisions in those scenarios is 392 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: Sean McVay. He always makes the wrong decision, is too 393 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 2: conservative when he should be aggressive. And Harba is going 394 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: to be aggressive of this game. So give me the coachingvantage. 395 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: Give me the special team's advantage. Give me a healthier 396 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 2: Ravens team buying them low after getting embarrassed, and I'll 397 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 2: take catching over a field goal at home here in 398 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 2: front of what should be a raucous crowd. Bigger home 399 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 2: field advantage than usual weather. Right, this is a Rams 400 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 2: team that's plays in LA. They're going across the country 401 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 2: one o'clock start, not familiar with Baltimore. Bigger home field 402 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: advantage than usual here, So give me the Ravens plus 403 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 2: three and a half. The only time they let me 404 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 2: down in the Sunday six pack in two years is 405 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 2: the game that I was at the Bengals game when 406 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 2: I had the Bengals, I mean the Browns game, and 407 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: I have the Browns minus two and a half and 408 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 2: the Browns are up twenty one. Fortunately, I'm not going 409 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: to this game and we. 410 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: Are and I'm not betting against you. I'm not. I'm 411 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 3: not betting. I'm not taking the Rams. That was the 412 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 3: key I like to think, you know. 413 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm uh and we're not. We're not laying points, 414 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 2: we're catching points here. Yeah, so uh yeah, give me 415 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 2: a big, big Tucker game in the win here keep 416 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,400 Speaker 2: that out of mind too. With the field goal kicking. 417 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 2: Mark my words, Rams missed a couple of field goals 418 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 2: in this game. 419 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 3: I'll have more on this game. I don't think the 420 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 3: weather is going to be a massive factor. I mean 421 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 3: it's still fifty two degrees, but I mean Tucker's going 422 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 3: to make everything but that, you know, I think it's 423 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 3: more so just rebound spot for the Ravens getting healthier, 424 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 3: you know, Lamar. I think it's actually good for Lamar 425 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 3: when he has time to kind of sit back and 426 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 3: watch himself. Remember he got hurt. I think it was 427 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 3: down a stretch last year where he missed it with 428 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 3: one game and he came back and he was just 429 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 3: a lot better. But also I think there's another one 430 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: of these scheme games where the Ravens have had a 431 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 3: lot of trouble against those cover zero you know, six, 432 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 3: seven and eight ban blitzes, Like you never played Madden 433 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,959 Speaker 3: and picked engage eight defense, Like I feel like that's 434 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 3: what they're giving the Ravens, and like that's what especially 435 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 3: Lamar has been struggling with. Well. The Rams plays the 436 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 3: second most zone in the league. The Ravens are about 437 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 3: a yard and a half per attempt better versus zone 438 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 3: coverage than they are against man coverage, you know. So 439 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,479 Speaker 3: I think that's big because the Rams that's really been 440 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 3: there mo o. You know, it's just been we're not 441 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 3: going to be super aggressive. We're gonna kind of sit back. 442 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 3: We're gonna give you some different looks, but we're gonna 443 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 3: just kind of sit back. You get those have those 444 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 3: four defenders deep in quarters and they'll split the field. 445 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 3: We're not gonna blitz a ton. So I said, another 446 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 3: one of those things where you're either gonna have to 447 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 3: take the Rams out of their comfort zone and and 448 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: the Ravens, I mean, they've got to be prepared for 449 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 3: this by now. It's been happening for like seven eight 450 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 3: weeks now, so they think it finally maybe get some 451 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 3: going here. But yeah, I just I think there are 452 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 3: a lot of schematic advantages, and then you're just getting 453 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 3: the Ravens home field. You're getting the Ravens bounced back spot. 454 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 3: So those are kind of why I like it. But 455 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 3: I'll talk more about this one in a bit for 456 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 3: my second pick change. 457 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,159 Speaker 2: By the way, I are that's not that's not an 458 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 2: insignificant and linebackers are obviously really important and again against Ravens. 459 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 3: Okay, here you go, man, So this is not my 460 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 3: unusual kind of pick, but uh, it's light in the air. 461 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 3: The suite is it's pretty interesting. But there's been a 462 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 3: trend with this team that I'll talk about. So I'm 463 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 3: going with Buffalo minus fourteen and a half against Atlanta. 464 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 3: And here's the thing about the well, first of all, 465 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 3: just on paper, obviously it's a mismatch. Buffalo's average margin 466 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 3: of victories ten point nine points per game, Atlanta's is 467 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 3: minus eight point one. Schedule adjusted Buffalo ten point six, 468 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 3: Atlanta minus eight point six. So either way, you're looking 469 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 3: at about a nineteen and a half point nineteen nineteen 470 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: and a half point difference just in terms of the season. 471 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 3: And then you got Buffalo at home, we got Atlanta 472 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 3: plan outdoors. But look at Atlanta this year against teams 473 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: that are currently above five hundred thirty two to six 474 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 3: loss to the Eagles, forty eight, twenty five loss to 475 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 3: the Bucks, thirty to seventeen loss to the Bucks, forty 476 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 3: three to three loss to the Cowboys, twenty five to 477 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 3: nothing loss to the Patriots, thirty one to thirteen loss 478 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 3: to the forty nine ers, in which the forty nine 479 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: ers spotted them a touchdown early in a game, and 480 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 3: then Miami just got above five hundred. So we'll give 481 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 3: them at thirty to twenty eight win over Miami. But 482 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 3: overall total points Atlanta ninety four above five hundred opponents 483 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: two hundred and thirty seven. That's an average of thirty 484 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 3: three point nine to thirteen point four in terms of 485 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 3: the score, a twenty and a half point deficit for 486 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: the Falcons against teams currently above five hundred, one and 487 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 3: six straight up one and six against the spread. So 488 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 3: if you're ever gonna bet against Atlanta, if you're ever 489 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 3: gonna take a number like this, I think this is 490 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 3: the time to do it. I think Buffalo's got the 491 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 3: advantage pretty much every aspect. They're at home. I was 492 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 3: really impressed by what they were able to do in 493 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 3: the rematch against the Patriots, you know, even getting digs going, 494 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 3: which really tough against a Belichick d. I think they're 495 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 3: gonna be able to do whatever they want here. And 496 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: this has just been Atlanta's m O all year. Just 497 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 3: get blown out by twenty against good team. So going 498 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: to Buffalo bills fourteen and a half against the Falcons. 499 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 2: Take one team as a big favorite the NFL. The 500 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 2: Bills are that team. They just don't let their foot 501 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 2: off the guests. They always pass, and we saw it 502 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,239 Speaker 2: against what the Panthers when they covered late, they went 503 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 2: toward a fourth and two and threw it in. I 504 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: think they've ruined your total and pushed by the second 505 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: half total. 506 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, one point. 507 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 2: The Bills love just blasting these bad teams, so I 508 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: do not disagree with you. All right. For my third 509 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 2: pick and the fifth overall of the week seventeen Sunday 510 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 2: six pack, I'm going with the Tennessee Titans minus three 511 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 2: and a half at home against the Miami Dolphins. I look, 512 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: I am now starting to sweat my Dolphins under wins 513 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 2: total under season wins, which is insane. But I have 514 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: do not buy this team just as look, I'm still 515 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 2: as low as this team as I was early in 516 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 2: the year. And I think you a lot of people 517 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 2: might have seen a tweet of mine from this week. 518 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: Let me pull it up. The Dolphins have won seven straight. 519 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 2: First team in NFL history to win seventh straight and 520 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 2: lose seventh straight in the same season they've won seventh straight. 521 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 2: Here's the quarterbacks that they beat, and this is after 522 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: losing to Trevor Lawrence on a neutral field. Then they 523 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 2: lost to Tyrod Taylor in his first game back from injury, 524 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 2: and he's had an awful year. He's been awful. Then 525 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: they beat Lamar Jackson, short week, brilliant defensive game plan 526 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 2: and beat the Ravens at home. Good win. They beat 527 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson, Joe Flacco, Cam Newton, Mike Glennon, and Ian Book. 528 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: You're talking about out of those seven quarterbacks, you're talking 529 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 2: about six that aren't in the top thirty of quarterbacks 530 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 2: in the league right now. Some are should be third stringers. 531 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean, the Book is a maybe fourth stringer. Mike 532 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: Glennon shouldn't be in the league anymore. Cam Newton shouldn't 533 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: be in the league anymore. Joe Flacco shouldn't be in 534 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 2: the league anymore. Zach Wilson has been awful, Tyrod Taylor 535 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: has been awful. I mean, these are the quarterbacks that 536 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: they beat. So I'm still not buying Tua. He's been better, 537 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: but still no air yards. The offensive line is one 538 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 2: of the worst in the NFL. Still can't pass protect, 539 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 2: they can't run the ball. 540 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 3: Oh, line is all holding call. 541 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 2: That's it. So Tennessee should be healthy here, getting a 542 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 2: lot of guys off COVID. I assume aj Brown is back. 543 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 2: We saw how massive that was for the offense. And 544 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: by the way, Tennessee late Thursday extended rest here. Miami 545 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 2: played in New Orleans on Monday night, you know, second 546 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: road game on a short week, while Tennessee has extra 547 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 2: prep three or four extra days here. I think the 548 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 2: charade is over if you can. I played some money 549 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 2: line here, if you can wait for the three. I 550 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: still like it at three and a half, nowhere close 551 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 2: to as much. So it should be a low scoring game. 552 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 2: So that field goal was really valuable if you can 553 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 2: buy it at like minus one twenty or lower if 554 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 2: you want to money line it with someone. But I 555 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: still like it at three and a half. I'm just 556 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: not buying the Dolphins. I'm completely selling them. I'm waiting 557 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: for them to play a competent team and with a 558 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: competent quarterback. This is the spot, and I think that 559 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 2: the Dolphins come crashing back down to earth here in 560 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 2: a bad situational spot, and I think the Titans get 561 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 2: this done and they should be able to run the 562 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 2: ball to here in Miami, even without Derrick Henry. So yeah, 563 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 2: give me tenn of say selling fading Miami their luck 564 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 2: of running into fourth string quarterbacks finally ends. 565 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree on Miami. I kind of like at 566 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 3: three and a half, I'm not there just because I 567 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 3: think this is one where you need the three. Like 568 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: I like what Miami is doing on defense schematically, and 569 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 3: I'm just I'm totally rich you on Miami obviously playing 570 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 3: a substandard slate of quarterbacks and that's making the defense 571 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 3: look good. But I do like what they're doing schematically. 572 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 3: I just don't know what I And I've said this before, 573 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:53,719 Speaker 3: I just don't know what I'm gonna get out of Tennessee. 574 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 3: Like and their offense, like, yeah, they you know, they 575 00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 3: played a j Brown was great, but they have some 576 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 3: COVID issues. I mean, you know, Julio, what is it 577 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 3: the they had Cody Hollister, Like, I don't know what 578 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 3: their receiving room is gonna look like. I mean Brown 579 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 3: could be a close contact or like he could get 580 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 3: he could test positive. So this is one where, Yeah, 581 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 3: if I couldn't get the three personally, I would I 582 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 3: would stay away. But I get it, you've been kind 583 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 3: of low on Miami a year, it's a better time 584 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 3: than any to sell high on them. I just I'm 585 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 3: not there with Tennessee. I don't know what I'm getting 586 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 3: out of them. So yeah, that's where I kind of 587 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 3: am maybe an under in this game. I don't see 588 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 3: either team score many points. But yeah, I would definitely 589 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 3: definitely try to wait for the three or or yeah, 590 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: like you said, maybe go for the money line if 591 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: you like the Titans. 592 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 2: By the way, that wrote the only And another thing, 593 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 2: they played two road games over the seven game when 594 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 2: you should there five to two at home. The road 595 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 2: games were against Ian Bulk and a practice squad of 596 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 2: the Saints, and then the Jets in a game they 597 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 2: were out gained in and they won by seven. But yeah, 598 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 2: I haven't faded the Dolphins once on the street, so 599 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 2: it's not like i've been. I've just been waiting. I've 600 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 2: been to get this opportunity, and here it is. 601 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel I just I just that that half 602 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 3: point like it just seems to be like it could points. 603 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 3: But I mean it's a tough way because like as 604 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 3: you're about to see with you know, we already saw it. 605 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 3: My second pick, kind of going against my normal strategy, 606 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 3: and I'll get into my third for my third pick 607 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 3: and the sixth overall of the week seventeen Sunday six pack, 608 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 3: I'm going with the Bucks minus thirteen and a half 609 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 3: at the Jets. And listen, the line came down a 610 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 3: little bit because Arians was ruled out. Maybe there's more 611 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 3: COVID issues and this this could come back to bite me. 612 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 3: But I still think as long as you have Brady, 613 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 3: you're probably okay against his Jets team. First of all, 614 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 3: just a massive letdown spot for the Jets, who probably 615 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 3: should have lost to the Jaguars anyway. I mean, I 616 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 3: don't know what, Trevor l. 617 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 2: You should have hit our money on underdog car left. 618 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 3: We should have hit it. I don't know. 619 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 2: It's Jacks or Spike. 620 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: Got to spike it. It was like the ghost of 621 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 3: Urban Mayoo was just haunting the Jags like he's still there. 622 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: It was urban esque. It's like, see, that's what happens 623 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,479 Speaker 3: when Urban Meyer coach is your top quarterback, your your 624 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 3: franchise quarterback for thirteen games. You know, like he's spiking 625 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 3: the ball with the two yard line on third and goal. 626 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 3: But I digress. Like it's it's not the most comfortable play. 627 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 3: Maybe if you want to tease it and get a 628 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 3: little more of a cushion, I wouldn't blame you. But 629 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 3: similar to the Falcons and the Bills. First of all, 630 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 3: it's a mismatch on paper. The Jets margin of victory 631 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 3: minus eleven and a half second worst, Tampa Bay plus 632 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 3: eight point seven. That's third best. Schedule adjusted, the Jets 633 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 3: are minus eleven one Tampa Bays plus nine three. So 634 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 3: it's about a twenty point twenty and a half point 635 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 3: spread either way. Now, if you look at Tampa Bay's 636 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 3: margin of victory, it's eight point seven, but against every 637 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: team of set, the Saints, it jumps to eleven point four. 638 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 2: It's the Saints. 639 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 3: We've talked about this. They've had the Bucks number for 640 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 3: since Brady joined the team. But Tampa Bay's second overall DVOA. 641 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 3: I know they have some injury. Jets are twenty six. 642 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 3: They have some injuries as well. There all their tight 643 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 3: ends are on the COVID list. I mean, it's just 644 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 3: they don't have any receivers. Salo will be back, but 645 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 3: I mean this is just a talent efficient team and 646 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 3: it's a letdown spot. But then you look at this 647 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay team and I don't think they're at full strength. 648 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to say like all this Tampa Bay 649 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 3: team is just gonna run over everybody. But against teams 650 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 3: with below six wins, which the Jets are obviously one of, 651 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 3: they played five games, they're five and oh. Straight up, 652 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 3: they're five and oh against the spread forty eight to 653 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 3: twenty five against Atlanta, thirty to seventeen against Atlanta, thirty 654 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 3: eight to three against Chicago, thirty to ten against the Giants, 655 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 3: thirty two to six against Carolina. Tampa Bay one to 656 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,719 Speaker 3: seventy eight. Opponents with six or fewer wins currently sixty 657 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 3: one an average score of thirty five point six to 658 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 3: twelve point two, a twenty three point four point different 659 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 3: So I know Tampa Bay is not a full strength 660 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 3: I still think they come out and handle business against 661 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 3: this team. It's just too much of a talent, too 662 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 3: much of a talent disparity here, Ugly Slate give me 663 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: the Bucks minus thirteen and a half. What could go 664 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 3: wrong with two double digit favorites. 665 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's probably Bucks or nothing here, But 666 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 2: I'm pretty close. I'm at like fourteen a little over fourteen. 667 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 2: That's what I projected at.

It's not 703 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 3: you know, it's a bo Jackson. So they didn't overlapor anything, 704 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 3: but had to kind of honor John Madden in some way. 705 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 3: So this one is dedicated to, you know, all the 706 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 3: American fans who lost a great one with the passing 707 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 3: of John Madden. 708 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 4: And you noticed Pat Troy Aikman's trying to grow up 709 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 4: beer and he just can't do it. I mean, you know, 710 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 4: the blonde haired guys, a lot of them have trouble. 711 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 4: But I can't even I'm looking as close as I 712 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 4: can and I can't see any beer. But he's been 713 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 4: that's a fortnight beer. 714 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 2: I got to get him time. He just had his 715 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 2: twenty ninth birthday. 716 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 4: I know, but I don't think he's doing a very 717 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 4: good I'd quit. I mean, you know, I mean, like 718 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 4: if you've been working out for four days and that's 719 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 4: all you get and the going gets tough, if it's 720 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 4: not tough, just quit. Well you can't just quit, Yes 721 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 4: you can, That's what That's what I'll say it. 722 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 2: When it going gets tough, quit, Yeah, absolute legend. I 723 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 2: mean I grew up obviously playing Madden, and spent many 724 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 2: hours in high school in college with friends playing. I 725 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 2: remember I used to be these awful I used to 726 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 2: be really good on defense, and then I had these 727 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: maybe because it was the Ravens, and then I would 728 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 2: just I remember running. I would just run slants with 729 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 2: Travis Taylor and these awful Ravens teams. That's like I'm 730 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 2: just running the ball. But yeah, I mean just a legend. 731 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 2: I remember I still get duck. My wife now makes 732 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 2: duck every Thanksgiving, and I remember my mom. I'm making 733 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 2: my mom make t duck in and always listening to Madden. 734 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 2: And I was tweeting the other week about before he 735 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 2: passed rip. I was like looking at playoff simulations and 736 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 2: I was like, forty nine ers. It looks like we 737 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: could get forty nine ers at Cowboys. And I was like, 738 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,919 Speaker 2: that is the most summer all and Madden vibes game ever. 739 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 2: I guess you put it in Candlestick and then have 740 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 2: Madden Summer All. I mean, just like the voice of football, 741 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 2: the narrator of football, and the in when I was 742 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 2: growing up in all in love with football. So rest 743 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 2: in peace to a legend. Thoughts with his family and friends. 744 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, ri Ip to a legend, John Madden. Uh, the 745 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 3: NFL would not be the same without you, man. All right, 746 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,879 Speaker 3: let's get into our favorite total the week. Stuck ut 747 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 3: first to the six pack. I'll start us off with 748 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 3: the total, and I'm actually going Ravens Rams over forty 749 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 3: six and a half. Obviously, Baltimore is gonna be healthier 750 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 3: in the secondary, but the Rams do have enough weapons 751 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 3: here with Kupp, who's gonna get his regardless Beckham, Jefferson, Higbee, Uh, 752 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 3: you know, Sony Michelle. Now you know maybe even some 753 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 3: cam Akers. They have enough weapons to still give this 754 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 3: secondary issues. Uh the Rams also, you know we talk 755 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 3: about scheme, both of these, it's both of these schemes 756 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 3: our advantage offense. The Ravens are the fourth most man 757 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 3: heavy team on defense. Now maybe they relax a little bit. 758 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 3: You know, n Bartindale hasn't been one two, but you 759 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 3: know they're still dealing with injuries, are facing the strong 760 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 3: off They just got bombarded with yardage through the air 761 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 3: last week. But fourth most man coverage. The Rams are 762 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 3: the second best team to the Bengals in efficiency against 763 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 3: man coverage, so averaging nearly ten yards per temp. So good, 764 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,439 Speaker 3: good offensive spot for the Rams. And then already talked 765 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 3: about you know Baltimore they struggle a lot more against man, 766 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 3: but the Rams played almost all zone. They're second in 767 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 3: zone coverage rate on defense. So I think both of 768 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 3: the schemes kind of given advantage to the offense here. 769 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 3: I don't think you're gonna get miss field goals with Tucker. 770 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 3: You know, you think maybe you know, Gay will miss some, 771 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 3: but that's kind of regardless of the point. I just 772 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 3: think both of these teams have been over teams this 773 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,959 Speaker 3: year Rams eight six and one, Baltimore eight and seven 774 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 3: combined sixteen thirteen and one. I think it's gonna be 775 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 3: a close game, I think Baltimore. I think Baltimore is 776 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 3: probably gonna have a good shot at winning this game, 777 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 3: as you talked about earlier, but I think it's gonna 778 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 3: have to come on offense. I think they're gonna have 779 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 3: to finally have a put together a good game with 780 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson. I think they can here just giving the matchup, 781 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 3: and I think the market is a little too low, 782 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 3: just because you know, the Rams are obviously studded with 783 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 3: talent on defense, and the Ravens have been playing second 784 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 3: and third string quarterbacks and Lamar had been struggling before that. 785 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 3: But I think, you know, I think either one of 786 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,879 Speaker 3: these teams could do more than their part to get 787 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 3: us here, even if the other one kind of lays 788 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 3: an egg on offense. 789 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 5: So give me the Ravens Rams over forty six and 790 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 5: a half. Yeah, yeah, I think that. I don't disagree 791 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 5: with that. I mean, the Ravens has gone over three 792 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 5: straight games. The market really hasn't caught up to the 793 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 5: fact that their offense can still move it. In the 794 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 5: defense and all their defensive injuries, They've gone over three 795 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 5: straight games with backup quarterbacks, a second string, and a 796 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 5: third string. And by the way, the Rams and what 797 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 5: I think Mountain don't do is he's gonna start out 798 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 5: man and blitz probably the first. 799 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 2: Half if it's going. If it's a disaster, he's going 800 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: to try and drop back in zones. But if it's 801 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 2: a disaster, that's good for You're over. That's a they 802 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 2: did last week. They had they dropped back in zones 803 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 2: in the second half and neither worked. But they had 804 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 2: guys off the street from my favorite total the week, 805 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: I'm going with the Indianapolis Colts, Oakland Oakland Raiders, the 806 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 2: Las Vegas Raiders. 807 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 3: Hey mass John Madden week, we can call them Jafer Raiders. 808 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, under forty five doesn't matter. Think it might be 809 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 2: forty four and a half on betem Jeno, as't matter. 810 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 3: But yeah, either way, you gotta get to forty four 811 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 3: or west. 812 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, get the forty five out there. It's obviously a 813 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 2: key number. I've talked about this completely fading Raiders offense 814 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 2: over the past couple of weeks. Just they don't have 815 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 2: the weapons on the outside. They can't really run the ball. 816 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 2: The offensive line isn't great. They've since the buye in 817 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 2: Week eight. Here's what they've scored sixteen fourteen, thirteen, fifteen, nine, sixteen, seventeen. 818 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 2: The one time they went over seventeen points is that 819 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 2: stupid Hockey League game on Thanksgiving when they got thirty 820 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: points off of penalties in overtime in Dallas and they 821 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: knocked me out a survivor. Fortunately, I don't have to 822 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 2: worry about a bad beat on six million dollars because 823 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 2: I had the Chargers saved for this past week against 824 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 2: against the Texans, so I was rooting for the Texans 825 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 2: at the end. I was like, come on, now, I 826 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 2: don't think curse hockey for the rest of my life. 827 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 2: But who knows, maybe I would have changed my mind. 828 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: I don't think so I had them saved and that 829 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 2: I probably would have used them there. But the Raiders' 830 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: offense and now Wallers on COVID list just not going anywhere. 831 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,799 Speaker 2: And these two teams, by the way, are very slow. 832 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 2: Colts are dead last in the NFL in situational neutral 833 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 2: adjusted pace, Raiders are below average. The Raiders defense, by 834 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 2: the way, the one thing that it does do is 835 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 2: it doesn't it doesn't allow explosive place either on the 836 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 2: ground or through the air. Their top ten in both. 837 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 2: And the reason for that is all they do is 838 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 2: sit and club three to three deep zone forty seven 839 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: percent of the time, and you wonder why Ma Holmes 840 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 2: is eating them up. The next highest is the Bucks 841 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 2: at like thirty percent. That's insane to be in that 842 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 2: one shell that that that high. So but it's good 843 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 2: for preventing exposive plays. So I think that they're gonna 844 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 2: make the Colts work to get down the field. The 845 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 2: Colts go slow. I don't see the Raiders doing much. 846 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 2: The Colt's red zone defense also, I think has some 847 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 2: positive regression coming, Like they're good against the run, they 848 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 2: should be better in the red zone. Wentz has some 849 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 2: negative aggression coming his way, so I think or from 850 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 2: football from both turnover worthy throws and yeah, he might 851 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 2: not play here, so they change the rules so he 852 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 2: will be eligible to come off. And you know, he 853 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 2: has to have no symptoms and his doctors have to 854 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 2: clear him. So I would assume most likely he's gonna play, 855 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 2: but you don't know if he actually got it right, 856 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 2: and then he's unvaccinated and is he actually like really 857 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:02,280 Speaker 2: sick right, Like that's so there's some there's some potential 858 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 2: upside to this under if like Wentz can't go or 859 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 2: he's really sick, right, and then you get Sam Ellinger 860 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 2: in there, and then you're just handing get the tailor 861 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 2: forty times. So yeah, there's a lot of reasons why 862 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 2: I like this under, and I think it'll be like 863 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 2: a there's somewhere around like twenty three seventeen Cold Twin. 864 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 3: Talk about bad beats with Raiders totals. So last week, 865 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 3: you know, I was, as I talked to you about, 866 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 3: I was super low and Drew Locke. I was like this, 867 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 3: you know, this guy is just not going to be 868 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 3: able to move his offense. So I had seen, you know, 869 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 3: I have a trade trend saved in my Action Labs 870 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 3: where the Broncos on the road under Fangio the Unders 871 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 3: eighteen and four in the first half. So I was like, 872 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 3: all right, you know, yeah, full game, full game. I'm like, 873 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 3: all right, you know, I do like the the Raiders here, 874 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 3: so I hate betting on things, you know, where it's like, 875 00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 3: you know, the Raiders, if they happen, I'm like, finally 876 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,399 Speaker 3: get it right on and I lose my under beet. 877 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,839 Speaker 3: So I was like, you know what, first half seems safer. 878 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 3: I think both teams, you know, kind of come out 879 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 3: running the ball. Uh. So I take it at twenty 880 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 3: because I'm thinking, like, there's no way the market is 881 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 3: going to continue to let this drew lock total, like 882 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 3: if it's gonna go down, not up. Of course it 883 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 3: goes up. So I could have gotten twenty and a 884 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 3: half or twenty one, but I take it it's twenty. 885 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 3: And that was the difference between me having a profitable 886 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 3: week and just you know, a push, you know. So 887 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 3: it's just, uh, I'm rooting for you on this Raving 888 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 3: Raiders when I might join you there. I think that 889 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 3: there's not a ton of unders actually this week that 890 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 3: I like, I think the market's kind of a little 891 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 3: more efficient, maybe all as COVID news having them bringing 892 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 3: totals down a little bit or something. I don't know, 893 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 3: but that's one of the ones that kind of stood 894 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 3: out to me too. 895 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Raiders Colts defense also matches up well against 896 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 2: the Raiders, right like car wants to have man coverage 897 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,320 Speaker 2: and get you know when he's getting blitzed, and the 898 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: Colts don't blitz. They play a lot of his own. 899 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 2: They also don't allow explosive passing plays and now against yeah, 900 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 2: they're good against run. That's like the Raiders offense right 901 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 2: now is shuck it up for full as the playzer. 902 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 2: That's about it. And it's just it's yeah, you know, 903 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 2: no Waller most likely, and you're just throwing it up 904 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 2: to Zay Jones and it's just a bad offense right now. 905 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 3: Uh yeah. And you know from what I'm hearing out 906 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 3: of the Raiders kind of you know out of Vegas, 907 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 3: is that Jacobs. You know, he was running angry ass 908 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 3: game and they kind of want to get it more 909 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 3: involved again, you know, they kind of want to just 910 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,479 Speaker 3: put the offense on his back. I mean, they scored 911 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 3: seventeen points. They just happened to win the game because 912 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 3: they're facing Drew Lot just like the week before they 913 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 3: happened to face Nick Mollens. But I think you're gonna 914 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 3: get a run heavy game plan against the Colts as well. 915 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 3: So just two teams that are gonna run ball a lot. 916 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 3: All right, that's gonna wrap it up. For our favorite 917 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 3: totals of the week, Stucky is going with Vegas Indie 918 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 3: under forty four and a half and I'm going Ravens 919 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 3: Rams over forty six and a half. Now it's time 920 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,879 Speaker 3: for our favorite teaser of the week. 921 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, six point teasers. 922 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 2: Don't want. 923 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 3: Don't teaze me please. For those unfamiliar with teasers, it's 924 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 3: when you combine two or more bets and you get 925 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 3: an allotted amount of points to add to the spread 926 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 3: of each of them. Usually six points is the standard, 927 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 3: so it's essentially like a parlay where you're getting six 928 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 3: extra points. That's what we do here, two team and teasers, 929 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: two team six point teasers. Stuck has a lot of 930 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 3: great content out on teasers and the key numbers you 931 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 3: should be looking to tease through. You can find that 932 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 3: by googling Stucky and Teasers or searching for it at 933 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:36,399 Speaker 3: actionnetwork dot com. We're also counting these is one point 934 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 3: for now just with this COVID situation, so three point 935 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 3: each for our six pack picks point for the total 936 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 3: point for the teaser point. If you sweep as well. 937 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 3: Stuck where you're going with your teaser for week number seventeen. 938 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 2: Not a ton of great teaser options this week. I 939 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 2: don't see any favorites between one and three out there 940 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 2: right now. I don't see any favorites between seven and eight. 941 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 2: What we always want to do here is check to 942 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 2: see if the money line parlay of these two teams 943 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 2: I'm teasing two favorites of around a touchdown down is 944 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 2: cheaper than your teaser if your teasers minus one pointy 945 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 2: check the money line parlay option before you tease two 946 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 2: teams around seven to see if it's cheaper. Obviously, you 947 00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 2: don't want to pay more than you don't have to. 948 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,959 Speaker 2: And I'm going to go with the Saints minus one, 949 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 2: teasing them down for minus seven and the Seahawks minus one. 950 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 2: I look, I think that the Saints will get it. 951 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,879 Speaker 2: They should get a lot healthier this week. You won't 952 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 2: have at the bare minimum, you will not have am 953 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 2: books starting. You're at home against the Panthers team in 954 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 2: free fall mode. Sam Darnold's gonna start. Can't see them 955 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 2: doing anything against this defense. I think the Saints could 956 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,240 Speaker 2: do enough to get this win off an embarrassing performance 957 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 2: which can't really take much from given the state of 958 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 2: their roster, and I think Seattle this line is a 959 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 2: little short here, so I'll take them to get the win. 960 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,399 Speaker 2: In Russell Wilson's likely last home game. Again, it's either 961 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: Timmy Boyle or and I know the line have been 962 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 2: great against the spread, their ten and five against the spread, 963 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 2: but I think Seattle will get a good effort here 964 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 2: at home final home game probably of Russ's career. And 965 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:17,279 Speaker 2: it's either Timmy Boyle for the Lions or Jared Goff 966 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 2: outdoors and wind and weather, and Jared Goff turns into 967 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 2: a pumpkin outdoors late in the season. So yeah, I'll 968 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 2: take those two home teams with two great home field advantages. 969 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,399 Speaker 2: I think the seahawksers will still give an effort here, 970 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 2: and Saints have a really good shot to make the 971 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 2: playoffs if they went out, so I think they get 972 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 2: it done here. 973 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not surprised that the Saints are still hanging around. 974 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 3: I figured they would be, and it's it's actually amazing 975 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 3: they have them where they go oh and four with 976 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 3: Sime and Owen one now with Book. So if they 977 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 3: just had Jamis and Taysom, which was the plan all along, 978 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 3: they probably would be fine. It's just that now they've 979 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 3: had they've had to go into like the third and 980 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,240 Speaker 3: four string guys. But I mean, yeah, a tough matchup 981 00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 3: for Carolina on a road, good defense should have some 982 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 3: guys back. So my first teaser is going to be 983 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay also teasing them from thirteen and a half 984 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,959 Speaker 3: down to seven and a half. I already talked about, 985 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 3: you know, them just rolling over teams, bad teams, twenty 986 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 3: three point four margin of victory five and oh straight 987 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 3: up five and oh against the spread. So it's another 988 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 3: way for me to invest in Tampa, who I still 989 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 3: think gets done. You know, maybe the market's going a 990 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 3: little down to them without you know, arians and some guys, 991 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 3: but I think they have more than enough year jets. 992 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,839 Speaker 3: Let now spot but the other one because I'm looking 993 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 3: for a way to invest in this and I might 994 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:38,439 Speaker 3: also consider just moneyline Parlangy's but you know as well. 995 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 3: But I've been looking for a way to invest in 996 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 3: the Patriots here, So I'm gonna tease them from fourteen 997 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 3: and a half at bet MGM to eight and a 998 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 3: half against the Jaguars, and simply to do with rookie 999 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 3: quarterback on the road against the Belichick defense. He's still 1000 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 3: never lost to a rookie quarterback in Foxborough? Has Bill 1001 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 3: Belichick here? So look at the Patriots they are. It's 1002 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 3: another one of these mismatches, you know, like plus eight 1003 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 3: point five point differential that's fourth best for New England Jaguars, 1004 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 3: minus eleven point nine that's worse in the NFL. So 1005 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 3: it's about a twenty point twenty and a half point 1006 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 3: difference between these two teams. Schedule adjusted, it actually goes 1007 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 3: up to about twenty one points. And then you also 1008 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 3: have you know, Jacksonville. They've lost by nine or more 1009 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,120 Speaker 3: points in nine of their fifteen games, nine of their 1010 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:28,360 Speaker 3: thirteen losses. So, uh, you know, better than fifty to 1011 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 3: fifty shot, you know, just regardless of the opponent pretty much. 1012 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 3: But this is a strong opponent, a really tough opponent 1013 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 3: for them. You have Belichick off a loss forty seven 1014 00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 3: and twenty two, sixty eight percent against the spread since three. 1015 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 3: You have Belichick sixty percent against the spread, off a 1016 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 3: multi game losing streak, and off a double digit loss 1017 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 3: because remember they lost, you know, by a couple of 1018 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 3: scores to the Bills last week twenty one and eight 1019 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:55,359 Speaker 3: against the spread, seventy two percent since two thousand and three. 1020 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 3: So I know some of it is with Tom Brady, 1021 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 3: that's what everyone's gonna say. But this is a Belichick game, 1022 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,919 Speaker 3: you know, rookie quarterback on the road, terrible Jags team 1023 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 3: that you know probably should have beat the Jets but 1024 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 3: couldn't even beat the Jets, which you know in the 1025 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,719 Speaker 3: Patriots they think, I think you finally get a good 1026 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 3: game for them after a couple of not so good 1027 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 3: ones here. I just I don't think the defense is 1028 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 3: gonna give up many points, if any at all, So 1029 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 3: teasing them down to eight and a half, that's gonna 1030 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,800 Speaker 3: wrap it for a teasers. Stuck is going to Seahawks 1031 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 3: teasing them down from minus seven to minus one against 1032 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 3: the Lions and the Saints from minus seven to minus 1033 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 3: one against the Panthers. I'm going with the Bucks from 1034 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,400 Speaker 3: thirteen and a half to seven and a half against 1035 00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 3: the Jets and the Patriots from fourteen and a half 1036 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 3: to eight and a half against the Jags. Now it's 1037 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:49,320 Speaker 3: time for our money line underdog parlay. Turning good weekends 1038 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:54,280 Speaker 3: into great weekends. It's time for the money line parlay. 1039 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 3: All right, Stuck, we came like within two yards of 1040 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 3: winning another one, your bills hit my Jags came up 1041 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 3: just short. That's what I get for breaking my ruin 1042 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 3: Brenning on the Jags other than no urban so it 1043 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:09,800 Speaker 3: wasn't really a rule. But where are you going for 1044 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 3: your money line dog this week? 1045 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're already talking about this game. I think there's 1046 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 2: some regression come for this Chiefs team, and I think 1047 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 2: it's a good matchup for Since he loved that, Logan 1048 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 2: Wilson is back practicing. Give me Joe Burr and I'll go. 1049 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 3: With you went on one of my spread picks, I'll 1050 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 3: go at one of yours. I like the Ravens a 1051 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,040 Speaker 3: plus one fifty five at bet MGM at home against 1052 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 3: the Rams. I think you get a great effort from 1053 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 3: the Ravens. I think the crowd is involved. Schematically, I 1054 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:36,839 Speaker 3: think you know the Ravens are in a better spot 1055 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 3: than they would be against most defenses this season, even 1056 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 3: though the Rams have talent. I think schematically it's still 1057 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 3: an edge for the Ravens with how well they play 1058 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,320 Speaker 3: against zone compared to man coverage. Sean McVay off a 1059 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:51,279 Speaker 3: multi game winning streak nine and twenty one against the 1060 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 3: spread thirty percent three and four this season, even after 1061 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 3: that win and cover against the Vikings, and yeah, Stafford, 1062 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 3: you already mentioned it against the spread on the money line. 1063 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,240 Speaker 3: Stafford verse teams with winning records twenty three and fifty 1064 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:07,480 Speaker 3: four straight up thirty percent with the Lions, two and 1065 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:10,439 Speaker 3: three with the Rams. So he still hasn't gotten five 1066 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:15,320 Speaker 3: hundred here against teams winning records even you know on 1067 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 3: this you know jugging more, what kind of potential jugger 1068 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,360 Speaker 3: out of a Rams team here? So spend one of 1069 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 3: these McVeigh letdown spots. Been a Stafford let down spot. 1070 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,720 Speaker 3: You talked about it in depth. Give me the Ravens. 1071 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 3: So this parlay Bengals plus one ninety Ravens plus one 1072 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,320 Speaker 3: fifty five a payout of six point four x roughly, 1073 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 3: which means one hundred dollars Bett return seven hundred and forty. 1074 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,439 Speaker 3: So this should be a good one. We've been hitting 1075 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 3: these and then if one of us doesn't hit him, 1076 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,959 Speaker 3: the other one does. So feel good. Feel good about 1077 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 3: this six over six to one payout here. Let's let's 1078 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 3: get it pop in, let's get this money. 1079 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,720 Speaker 1: The Action Network podcast is proudly presented by Bett MGM 1080 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 1: and To celebrate the twenty twenty one season, betmgm is 1081 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 1: offering a great sign up offer for our listeners, a 1082 00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 1: one thousand dollars risk free first bet.

Let's get back 1109 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: to the. 1110 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 3: Show, and now let's get into the best of the rest. 1111 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 3: Which are the games that we did not discuss in 1112 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 3: any other segment. All right, First up, we got those 1113 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 3: Houston Texans going to San Francisco Frisco. Twelve and a 1114 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 3: half point favorites. That total is forty four. I'm not 1115 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 3: gonna lie. I thought about the Texans as a long 1116 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 3: shot money lined dog, probably going against Trey Lance. Got 1117 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:55,360 Speaker 3: like fifteen guys back off the COVID list. Shanahan twelve 1118 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 3: and twenty one and one against the spread thirty six 1119 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 3: percent is a favorite. Not including when he's off a 1120 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 3: buy so not including long rest. But I don't know. 1121 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:06,879 Speaker 3: The Houston just too much of a public team. They're 1122 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 3: getting eighty five percent of the bets. San Francisco is 1123 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,399 Speaker 3: getting ninety four percent of the money. So I guess, 1124 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 3: you know, I don't really have too much of a 1125 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,440 Speaker 3: feel for it. I just think there's a lot of variance. 1126 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,080 Speaker 3: Like I think like Houston could win the game. I 1127 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 3: think San Francisco could blow him out. But the fact 1128 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:25,320 Speaker 3: that the public's on Houston, that big money's on San Francisco, 1129 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,399 Speaker 3: it's kind of a stay away for me because I'm 1130 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 3: definitely not betting San Francisco. 1131 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:33,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I make this right. Around two touchdowns. Houston pretty 1132 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,320 Speaker 2: much won their Super Bowl last year last week to 1133 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 2: expect a extra prep for San fran I think they've earlier, 1134 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 2: But I'm around two touchdowns in the no interest awful. 1135 00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:48,839 Speaker 3: Game Denver at the Chargers, Denver six and a half 1136 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 3: point underdogs on a road the total forty five and 1137 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 3: a half. What I consider the charges for my teaser. Again, 1138 00:56:56,280 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 3: I just don't think this Broncos offense can operate with 1139 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,680 Speaker 3: Drew Locke. Even though I saw a tweet I wish 1140 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 3: I remember who tweeted it, but essentially the was that 1141 00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:09,560 Speaker 3: PFF graded Lock higher than Teddy Bridgewater has been graded 1142 00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:12,360 Speaker 3: in any game since twenty fourteen, which I don't know 1143 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 3: if it was more an indictment of PFF or what. 1144 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 3: But like I mean, I like PFF. Don't get me wrong, 1145 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 3: I quote him all the time. So that's that's not 1146 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 3: a it's not a no shade there. It's just like 1147 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 3: I I didn't see it, and I thought it was 1148 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 3: I thought it was pretty much because of Lock that 1149 00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 3: the Raiders were able to stop the run. I mean 1150 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 3: Javontai Williams and Melvin Gordon where they combined for like 1151 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 3: ten yards all game long, because you know, they had 1152 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 3: no respect for Lock. So I think there are some 1153 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 3: things that are deeper than that aren't being accounted for 1154 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 3: here when Lock, when you switch from Bridgewater to Lock. 1155 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 3: That's why Bridgewater, you know, is covering about eighty percent 1156 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:50,440 Speaker 3: on the road. Eighty percent is a road dog. So 1157 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 3: I did think about the chargers here they are getting 1158 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 3: exactly fifty percent of the bets but ninety seven percent 1159 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 3: of the money, So I don't necessarily think it's a 1160 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 3: bad teaser piece, but the Chargers are another team that 1161 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 3: the consistency is just not there with them. It's a 1162 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 3: bounce back spot. But Denver did win twenty eight thirteen 1163 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 3: in La Fangio is thirteen six sixty eight percent against 1164 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 3: the spread off as a as a dog off a loss. 1165 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 3: So if the Chargers are just a little more consistent, 1166 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 3: I would feel better. But and I guess they're getting 1167 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:23,959 Speaker 3: healthier from COVID, but you never know. I mean, they've 1168 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 3: you know, a lot of guys last week. I think 1169 00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 3: they still got some guys on it, so who knows. 1170 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 3: But I'd probably stayed away from me. But if any 1171 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 3: if I was going to do anything with this game, 1172 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 3: I would just tease it. 1173 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 2: What about you? Herbert start to struggle little bit with 1174 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 2: Cover two. 1175 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 3: A lot actually Fanjo Special. 1176 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Broncos confused him a little bit. He threw 1177 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 2: for a lot of yards, but through had some big mistakes. 1178 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 2: I think certain the two picks something to watch there, 1179 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 2: and the Broncos should be able to run the ball here. 1180 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:50,200 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just Rex Burkhead looked like a Hall 1181 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 2: of Famer last week against the Chargers. I don't know 1182 00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:54,760 Speaker 2: if it's locked and it's going to be Lock or 1183 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 2: Bridgewater get seven for sure, Bridgewater's out for sure out. 1184 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:02,920 Speaker 2: If I could get seven or more, I might look 1185 00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 2: at the Broncos. Actually might look at the under here too. 1186 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 2: It's the Chargers game. Yeah tough for the Chargers game though, 1187 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 2: but yeah good in a lock game. But nothing real 1188 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:13,560 Speaker 2: strong here. 1189 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 3: I will say it is. And I thought about the 1190 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 3: under two and I got I've gotten burned by a 1191 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 3: couple of Chargers unders. It gets the no I thought 1192 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,000 Speaker 3: about against the Giants. I don't think I ended up 1193 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,080 Speaker 3: going there, but I did against the Texans and that 1194 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 3: didn't work out. But here's the thing, Like the Lock 1195 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 3: game went over essentially because the Broncos couldn't run the 1196 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 3: ball at all. Now, is that going to be the 1197 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 3: case against the Chargers. Probably not. Chargers should still are 1198 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 3: still the better team, but that that that does worry me. 1199 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 3: If the Broncos can run the ball and the Chargers 1200 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 3: do Charger things, or if Herbert commits turnovers and they 1201 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 3: have to do, you know, throw the boat downfield like 1202 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 3: it's just it seems like a recipe for disaster. But 1203 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:52,920 Speaker 3: the total at first glance did seem a little high, 1204 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 3: all right, Dallas Arizona. I was kind of surprised that you, uh, 1205 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:00,600 Speaker 3: we were gonna go back to the well Cliff here, 1206 01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:04,320 Speaker 3: he's seventy and seven as an underdog against the spread, 1207 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 3: seventy one percent five and oh the season. But you 1208 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 3: pointed it out last week even though you picked the Cardinals, 1209 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 3: that they were, you know, kind of fading and Kingsbury 1210 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 3: has been one, you know, this whole Kingsbury Murray era. 1211 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 3: You know, it's been kind of one to fade down 1212 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 3: the stretch. So, uh, the Sharks are on Dallas here, 1213 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 3: they're getting fifty six percent of the bets, eighty two 1214 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 3: percent of the money as we record this, But we 1215 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 3: have tracked a sharp action as well on the Cowboys. 1216 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:33,640 Speaker 3: Is that is that just because you know, people are 1217 01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 3: really kind of buying into this this Cardinal fade down 1218 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 3: the stretch narrative. 1219 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're if you're you're if you're going 1220 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 2: to bet the Cowboys or you're it's you're buying the 1221 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 2: Cowboys at their peak maybe after a huge win, and 1222 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 2: then selling the Cardinals maybe at their low. I would 1223 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 2: bet the Cardinals again. Last week, of course, it was 1224 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 2: another Cardinals game where I beat the close by a 1225 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 2: couple of points and play a bunch of backups and 1226 01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:54,600 Speaker 2: can't win. But this time on the Cardinals been the 1227 01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 2: death of me this year. But I just I didn't 1228 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 2: know the holder for the holder at Cole McCoy by 1229 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 2: the way, cost me like seven points in holding field 1230 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 2: goals was worth so much. And then Cliff Kingsbury one 1231 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 2: of the worst coach games in NFL history, right down 1232 01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 2: to the end. But kicking on you know, kicking on 1233 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:11,320 Speaker 2: fourth and threes and going forward on fourth and six's 1234 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 2: just an absolute joke and clown of a coach. Can't 1235 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 2: back him here. Cliff Kingsbury Cowboys started to figure out 1236 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 2: their offense last week that it was a really good 1237 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 2: sign for dak is that offense was struggling a bit, 1238 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 2: especially against the like cover two looks. A lot of 1239 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:32,440 Speaker 2: these quarterbacks are struggling with this year as we go 1240 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,439 Speaker 2: back to like two thousand and five when everyone's running 1241 01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 2: cover twos again. But yeah, I mean Arizona's fading Dallas 1242 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:42,240 Speaker 2: by the way, running like cover one like fifty two 1243 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 2: percent of the time most in the league. You got 1244 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 2: a dan quid credit and they're getting a ton of pressure. 1245 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 2: That's kind of how you beat Kyler Murray and it 1246 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 2: looks like they're going to really miss Hopkins and this 1247 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 2: Cardinals team is fading. But I don't. I can't back 1248 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 2: the Cowboys at this number just to pass for me. 1249 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 3: Cardinals like the Cowboys. I get why the Sharks are 1250 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 3: on him. I again, yeah, not my you know style here. 1251 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 3: You know, five and a half not my favorite type 1252 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 3: of number because it's not you know, it's still you know, 1253 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,000 Speaker 3: standard deviation in terms of point differential is still around 1254 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 3: a touchdown or so or two touchdowns. So I like, 1255 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:19,280 Speaker 3: it's still a game that could go either way. But 1256 01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 3: you look at Arizona what they've struggled with man coverage. 1257 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 3: Dallas can do that. Arizona about two almost three yards 1258 01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:31,480 Speaker 3: worse per attempt versus man than zone. And the reason 1259 01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 3: the thing about the Cardinals is they just don't see 1260 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 3: a lot of man coverage ordinarily, because you're worried about 1261 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 3: defender's backs turned with Kyler and you usually don't have 1262 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 3: a guy that can spy him and keep up with 1263 01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 3: him athletically. But without Hopkins, it just changes the whole. 1264 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 3: It changes everything because now you're just not as worried 1265 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:53,480 Speaker 3: about the rest of the receiving corps, you know, outside 1266 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 3: of him, like you can single cover Wesley, you can 1267 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 3: single cover green you could single cover Kirk, especially if 1268 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 3: you can use Tevron dig So you have options in 1269 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:03,840 Speaker 3: terms of if you want to read that one safety deep, 1270 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:05,320 Speaker 3: if you want to kind of bring them up a 1271 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 3: little closer, have two spies on. I mean, there's a 1272 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:09,440 Speaker 3: lot of things you can do and still play man 1273 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 3: coverage now without Hopkins there. So I get why the 1274 01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 3: Cowboys are the popular side here. Still don't like it 1275 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:17,520 Speaker 3: at five and a half. I think it's more of 1276 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 3: a for for a game type of situation. You know, 1277 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 3: Cowboys win by three or four median outcome. But I 1278 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 3: see why they definitely have a matchup advantage here without Hopkins. 1279 01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, Carl's see a lot of z own in that division, 1280 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 2: which is another reason why. But yeah, I mean just 1281 01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 2: look atline is like three and then that's what you got. 1282 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 2: After last week's results. 1283 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:42,120 Speaker 3: Finally we got Minnesota going to Lambeau to face the 1284 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:44,480 Speaker 3: Green Bay Packers. I'll have a write up on Action 1285 01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 3: network dot com and in the app out later in 1286 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 3: the week for Sunday Night Football. Packers six and a 1287 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 3: half point favorites total forty seven and a half Packers 1288 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:56,920 Speaker 3: public Darling getting sixty seven percent of the bets, sixty 1289 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 3: six percent of money. And this is an interesting one 1290 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 3: from a trend perspective. We always talk about Zimmer sixty 1291 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 3: percent against the spread as a dog, thirty three and 1292 01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 3: twenty two in his career, also thirty five and seventeen, 1293 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,720 Speaker 3: sixty seven percent against the spread coming off a loss. 1294 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 3: But you're going against Rodgers and Lamboat uh sixty one, 1295 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,160 Speaker 3: twenty eight and three, sixty nine percent against the spread 1296 01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,480 Speaker 3: when the spread is thirteen or less, including six and 1297 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 3: one this year. He also got Rodgers in a divisional 1298 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 3: home game. In his career, He's twenty five and twelve 1299 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 3: against the spread sixty eight percent to and zero this year. 1300 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:35,120 Speaker 3: Dalvin Cook's back off the COVID list. Adam Thielen had 1301 01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 3: season ending ankle surgery. And for the Packers, one thing 1302 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 3: I noticed I saw on the transaction logs they activated 1303 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 3: Jayira Alexander, so that could if he plays, that could 1304 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 3: potentially be massive now that the Vikings don't have to 1305 01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:52,120 Speaker 3: and and Rasseul Douglas already playing well for the Packers. 1306 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 3: But I mean, if you get Jai air back in 1307 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 3: any capacity, and it's you're just going against Justin Jefferson. 1308 01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously you got to stop cook. But you 1309 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 3: know this Viken's offense is a totally different piece. When 1310 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 3: you got the pass and run game kind of complimenting 1311 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,040 Speaker 3: each other. If you could take away their past game, 1312 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 3: then this this package team is gonna get there. You know, 1313 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:12,840 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four points that they need to win this game. 1314 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:16,160 Speaker 3: So I don't know, I might consider a tease, you know, 1315 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 3: kind of begging for it down to a half a point. 1316 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 3: Packers win, you win the bet. But I don't know, 1317 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 3: what do you think of this one? 1318 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be looking to fade. I'm still looking at Faye. 1319 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 2: The Packers did so last week. I think they're overvalued. 1320 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 2: They're running better than their margin if you look at 1321 01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 2: a lot of their advance metrics. Now their defense is 1322 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 2: gonna get healthier, then you're gonna get back your back. 1323 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 2: So it's something you have to keep in mind. But 1324 01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:39,360 Speaker 2: there's things like, you know, if you look at fault 1325 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 2: like fumble since we gave they've recovered every fumble that 1326 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 2: they've had. Like there's just a lot of things that 1327 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 2: they're running well, and they're also not a great, big favorite, 1328 01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 2: and they like let these teams back in the game 1329 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 2: and they can't defend the run and they play really 1330 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 2: soft defense late. I would need to seven and a 1331 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 2: half here the back of Vikings, it's just a completely 1332 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 2: different offense without feeling he's just so big in the 1333 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 2: red zone on third downs. Vikings, by the way, best 1334 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 2: path of the play else went out. So you got 1335 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 2: to win this game or you're done. And then you 1336 01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 2: got to beat the Bears at home, which you should do, 1337 01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 2: and then you have to have the Saints and Eagles split, 1338 01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:09,560 Speaker 2: so you Saints probably best shot. They lose at Atlanta 1339 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 2: and then you know the Eagles either lose that Washington 1340 01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,439 Speaker 2: or Dallas, then you're in so Washington and Beggers aren't 1341 01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 2: dead yet, but they're on life support. And but yeah, 1342 01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:20,080 Speaker 2: I probably need seven and a half. It should be 1343 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 2: a big game for Cook and you're probably gonna feature him, 1344 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 2: and then if yeah, but if Alexander plays, that's something 1345 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 2: big to watch because then you can bring your safeties 1346 01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,280 Speaker 2: down even more, you don't have to worry about it 1347 01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 2: as much. That's something to watch as well. But I 1348 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 2: would need seven and a half off the Vikings. If 1349 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 2: not pass, I'll look forward to you right now. 1350 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is uh, I will say this, This is 1351 01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:42,680 Speaker 3: the reason that Alexander looms so large is because you 1352 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 3: just hit on it, like God, bring the safeties down, uh, 1353 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 3: because you can't. You can't back the Packers at six 1354 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:51,440 Speaker 3: and a half after seeing what Nick Chubb did to 1355 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 3: them last week. I mean, like Kurner and I we 1356 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 3: always joke because like you know, my motto, I kind 1357 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 3: of it's like a progressive thing or the more data 1358 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 3: you get, obviously, the more you can project the outlier. 1359 01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 3: So Nick Chubb I always joke on how like it 1360 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 3: takes me a while to get to like five yards 1361 01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 3: per carry with him, you know, like I'm not just 1362 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:09,880 Speaker 3: gonna project him for five yards to carry every season, 1363 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,320 Speaker 3: you know, to start, but I'm there now. And he 1364 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 3: was like, you know, I'm lowering his yards per carry. 1365 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 2: Go. 1366 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:16,800 Speaker 3: You know, the old wine is out going against the Packers. 1367 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 3: And then what does Chubb do. He averages like eight 1368 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 3: yards of carry deering as Johnson averages like eight yards 1369 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 3: of carry. I mean, this is this is just not 1370 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,680 Speaker 3: like the Vikings could could definitely win this game. I 1371 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 3: think if if it's just like you know, no Jay 1372 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:32,200 Speaker 3: are they have to still respect the pass and like 1373 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 3: you just give Cook thirty carries, like there's there's a 1374 01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:37,440 Speaker 3: shot for the Vikers to win this game. But if 1375 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 3: is back, I think I would be teasing the pack 1376 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 3: down because I do agree on it. They I mean, 1377 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:43,440 Speaker 3: they've been blowing all these leads, like every week they 1378 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 3: just blow a big lead. That regression against the spread 1379 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:49,560 Speaker 3: is coming. It's it's here. Let's close it out with 1380 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 3: our Survivor pool pick it a week. 1381 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 2: The. 1382 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 4: Survivor Pool pick of the week. 1383 01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:06,959 Speaker 3: All right, stuck, we long got eliminated. But for people 1384 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:10,920 Speaker 3: that didn't probably use the Patriots already. You know, if 1385 01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:12,520 Speaker 3: you didn't, obviously I think you want to use them. 1386 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,600 Speaker 3: Belichick's never lost to a rookie quarterback on the road. 1387 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,760 Speaker 3: But assuming somebody has used the Patriots to any other team, 1388 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:20,200 Speaker 3: like which of those other you know, big favorites kind 1389 01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 3: of sticks out. 1390 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,679 Speaker 2: I actually had the Bucks saved forty nine. Ers are fine, 1391 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 2: but if you're alive still, you probably don't need our help. 1392 01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 2: I think the Saints are a good option here. You 1393 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:32,400 Speaker 2: might not have used them if you got here at 1394 01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:35,040 Speaker 2: home against the Panthers, bounceback spot they should get a 1395 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:39,479 Speaker 2: lot healthier of a roster Yattle, So yeah, Seattle. I 1396 01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 2: think that those are the probably the two teams you 1397 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 2: might not have used that I would feel comfortable using 1398 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 2: either Seattle. 1399 01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 3: Obviously, if you haven't used Buffalo, if you haven't used Yeah, 1400 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 3: San Francisco, if you haven't used Tampa and New England, 1401 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 3: those are the big favorites. All right, that's gonna do 1402 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 3: it for the week seventeen. Action Network podcast reminder.
