That's not something that the director of content 32 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: would do. I will say, like I sort of like 33 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: ad hoc do projections here or there, and uh like 34 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: I was always ridiculously high on Juju, so we'll say, 35 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 2: like Juju two thousand yards? 36 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 6: Is that? No? 37 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: I mean that's there's no there's no chance, no chance 38 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: that happens. No chance with. 39 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahost, someone's got to pick up that slack in 40 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: that offense, and they've been throwing it deep to them. 41 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 4: A lot in practice. 42 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, based on the practice reports and the 43 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: you know, Twitter highighlights, you're just going to go off 44 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: this year. So I'm just going to project him for 45 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: like sixteen hundred yards and be like, ah right, I'm 46 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: just being aggressive. 47 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: Well pretty good. This quarterbacks pretty good, guys, he is 48 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: pretty good. But we are not here today to talk 49 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: about player projections. We are here to talk about the 50 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: second most degenerate thing in sports gambling. I'm not talking 51 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: about grocery store slot machines, which yes, are a thing 52 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, guys, but today we are talking about 53 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: betting on preseason football. It is the most exciting time 54 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: of the year. Football is officially back. We had the 55 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame game last week, and we've got four weeks, 56 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: well three weeks now of preseason ball to get to. 57 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: And guys, we know we want to get it out 58 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: of the way first and foremost. The number one rule 59 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: of betting on preseason football bet on the Baltimore Ravens. 60 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: It's a known fact that for some time now head 61 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: coach John Harbaugh plays to win in these games, even preseason, 62 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: throughout his tenure. The Ravens are forty and twelve on 63 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: the money line four five percent ROI per bet Labs. 64 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: Shout out by the way two Matt's article in which 65 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: he plugged that stat thirty six fifteen and one against 66 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: the spread. And guys, even though everybody knows now that 67 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: the Ravens try to win these games. You're still taking 68 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: them even with the number bake in, right. 69 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 3: Matt, Yeah, I mean I'm a full Dejon. 70 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 2: I'm going to be betting on the preseason and you 71 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: can't do that without backing the Ravens. As you mentioned 72 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 2: the statistics there. Yeah, Harbaugh and his team have just 73 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: been totally dominant. I like them this season going against 74 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: the Titans, the Cardinals, the Commanders, and I think they 75 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: have a couple of edges. They've got Justin Tucker, who's 76 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: like the best kicker of all time and recently extended 77 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: and so he's going to be better kicking phild goals 78 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: and whatever, you know, like backup kickers a lot of 79 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: other teams are rolling out there. And then they've also 80 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: got pretty good quarterbacks and Tyler Huntley and Brett Huntley. 81 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: I think those players are above average given where they 82 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: are on the depth chart. So you know, whether it's 83 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: money line spread, yeah, I'm betting on the Ravens. 84 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: Rest in peace, Trace McSorley. Chris, how about you? Are 85 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: you still on the Ravens bandwagon. 86 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 5: I bet the Ravens like two weeks ago on the 87 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 5: money line. You know, I you know what's funny is 88 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 5: I was checking the Action Network gap today and apparently 89 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 5: the Sharps are on the Titans. So I don't know 90 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 5: what's going on, but you know, I'm with Friedman. I 91 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 5: mean this, this, this has been a best bet in 92 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 5: sports for what six years now? So I mean this 93 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 5: Baltimore TeV. You mentioned it, Tyler Huntley, Brett Huntley. I 94 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 5: like the quarterbacks. I mean I think, you know, compared 95 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 5: to what Malik willis, I think that those guys are 96 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 5: going to have an edge. So yeah, give me some 97 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 5: ravens in The line is coming down again. 98 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 6: It was at four and a half. Now it's three 99 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 6: and a half. 100 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 5: So maybe we maybe we even get to three before 101 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 5: it's all said and done. 102 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: See that's the thing about the Sharps. 103 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: First off, they are going to bring that number down 104 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: because as the action comes in on that side, the 105 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: books are going to address based on that opinion, obviously. 106 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: But the other thing is they love to be contrari 107 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: and the to go against the public, and the public 108 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: loves this, and so they're saying, we can get a 109 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 1: team getting four and a half points in a preseason game, 110 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: we'll take that action there. But you're right last twenty 111 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: to OZH straighten up seventeen to two and one against 112 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: the spread. Like you said, when it comes to preseason betting, 113 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: they are the team that the public loves to roll 114 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: with and we are going to love to roll with 115 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: as well. But when it comes to preseason betting, another 116 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: thing for betters to keep in mind here is that, 117 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: well defense wins championships, it also wins preseason games. And 118 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: Matt you talked about in an article this week, you 119 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: love betting unders in the preseason because of those defenses. 120 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm a wet blanket, right, So that's 121 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 2: why I like betting unders. But it's also been profitable, 122 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 2: you know, over the past six years are going actually 123 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 2: no more than that. Going back to twenty fourteen, and 124 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: I don't know why twenty fourteen in particular, but it 125 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: was like a switch in preseason games, unders started hitting 126 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: out a fifty seven percent clip. 127 00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 6: You know. 128 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 2: I have some theories on that in terms of why 129 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: we see that. You know, I think defensive units they're 130 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 2: doing fairly basic things and so it's hard for backup 131 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: defenders really to screw up by not knowing the system right, 132 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: because they're just doing really basic things, whereas offenses, they're 133 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: driven by the quarterback primarily, and so you have second 134 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 2: and third string quarterbacks out there who really can't execute 135 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: in the way that they're supposed to. And you know, 136 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: you have offensive coordinators who aren't going to be doing 137 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: all that much that's inventive because they have second and 138 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: third string offenses out there. So you put all that together, 139 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 2: and I think it plays towards the under. 140 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: And Chris, you love fading the public with some of 141 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: these contrarian unders when other people are going over. 142 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's one of the things in the 143 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,119 Speaker 5: preseason you have to kind of remember, we don't really 144 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 5: know a lot, you know, even you know, people like 145 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 5: Freeman and myself. You know, like there's so many players 146 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 5: on these rosters that we probably never heard of. And 147 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,119 Speaker 5: so when you see, uh, you know, unders getting thirty 148 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 5: eight percent or less of bets you know, one twelve 149 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 5: excuse me, one forty four, one to twelve and four 150 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 5: fifty six percent since two thousand and four. And when 151 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 5: you look at preseason unders getting less than thirty five 152 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 5: percent of the money forty three and twenty three sixty 153 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 5: five percent. And there's a couple of games that actually 154 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 5: fit that description. The Washington Carolina game, the totals up 155 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 5: to thirty seven on that it's been bet up, so 156 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 5: maybe you want to come back, you know, with the 157 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,119 Speaker 5: under on that one. Seventy nine percent of the money 158 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 5: is on the over there, and that Jets Philly game. 159 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 5: In the Pittsburgh Seattle game, Uh, the money's also hovering 160 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 5: in the low thirties as well. 161 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 6: So there's quite a few options here. But I do 162 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 6: think you want to kind of go contrarian in certain 163 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 6: spots in the preseason. 164 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: And I think the thing with unders in preseason football. 165 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: It reminds me remember when the AAF came out and 166 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: the first week the totals were all in the forties 167 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: and everybody's saying, oh, it's going to be a points league, 168 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: that rules are set up for scoring, it's gonna be points, points, points. 169 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: And by the time that league met its untimely demise, 170 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: totals were in the low twenties because teams couldn't put 171 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: up ten points in a game. It comes down to, 172 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: like you guys both said, the quarterback play and the 173 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: fact that when you don't have a great quarterback running 174 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: that offense, offenses stall and get stuck in the mud 175 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: even against subpar or basic defenses. 176 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 4: And that's the thing that people want to watch out 177 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: here for. 178 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: And the other thing is that coaches aren't game planning, 179 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: like you said, They're running very simple offenses, partially because 180 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: the players on the field might not be able to 181 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: handle a more complex offense yet and partly because they 182 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: don't want to give anything away for the actual season. 183 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: But I think the biggest thing to me is that 184 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: in a normal sporting event, both teams are playing to score, 185 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: and preseason football isn't a normal sporting event. You're not 186 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: necessarily game planning to actually go out unless you're John 187 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: Harbaugh and win the game or even put up points. 188 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: It's about seeing what your offense can do in certain situations. 189 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: It's about kind of trying to run through your paces 190 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: and see mess around with some things. And I think 191 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 1: that that's a big factor that teams aren't necessarily looking 192 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: to put the ball in the end zone every time.

In the actual National Football League, 206 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 5: you know, the regular season offensive line play has kind 207 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 5: of been going downhill, I think over the last you know, 208 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 5: five ten years. So maybe that's one of the reasons 209 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 5: as well, because because you're not game planning, you're not scheming, 210 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 5: it's really hard for a backup quarterback to get anything 211 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 5: done when they're just essentially trying to see who can block, 212 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 5: and if one guy misses a block on any given play, 213 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 5: that whole play is blown up, especially when you're dealing 214 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 5: with subpar, you know, second and third string offensive talent. 215 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 5: So that's another big reason I think, you know, talking 216 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 5: about the Ravens, I don't think it's just that they're 217 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 5: going out and you know, just trying to crush everybody 218 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 5: in the preseason and game planning. I also think it's 219 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 5: that they generally have deep rosters, right like they generally 220 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 5: have quality drafts. They tend to hit, they tend to 221 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 5: find good free agents, Their defense tends to be deep, 222 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 5: their offensive line tends to be deep most years and so, 223 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 5: and their backup quarterbacks have been pretty solid. So I 224 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 5: think it's more so that than necessarily they're going in 225 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 5: and saying we want to win these meetingless games. I 226 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 5: just think there as an organization, it's kind of just 227 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 5: a testament to what they've been able to do and 228 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 5: why they've been so consistent over these years in the 229 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 5: regular season as. 230 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: Well, And to follow up on what Raven said there, 231 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: it's I mean every he just said. Also like continuity 232 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: within the coaching staff, and so you have players throughout 233 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: the organization who know the scheme and so even though 234 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 2: they're in training camp, they're much further along than a 235 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 2: lot of other teams are at this point of the 236 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: calendar year. And then also like continuity within the players, 237 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 2: Like yeah, they let players go, but you know, like 238 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: kind of year in and year out, they have like 239 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: quite a bit of continuity within the roster itself, so 240 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 2: you'll have second and third teamers who actually do know 241 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: the system and they're used to playing with each other. 242 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: Think about what Raybond said with the offensive line play. 243 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: A lot of offensive line plays is built around like 244 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: continuity and communication with the guy next to you. And 245 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: the teams that have like consistent coaching staffs year over year, consistent, 246 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 2: you know, like roster composition, they're going to have more 247 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 2: continuity just in terms of how they play as a unit. 248 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: And I think that's something that feeds into why the 249 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: Ravens have had so much success. 250 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: I forget it was, but there was someone in the 251 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: NFL twitter verse who had a really great point a 252 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: couple of years back about the changes in the college 253 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: offenses and how it's illy preparing offensive lineman for the 254 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: National Football League in the way pro offenses are run. 255 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: But we could do an entire show on that. The 256 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: point that we should be getting into here is the 257 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: depth of rosters and how teams with greater continuity, greater 258 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: draft ability, and just better back ends of their rosters 259 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: are going to be teams that you're going to be 260 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: wanting to look to bet on. Here in the preseason, 261 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: because those back end players are gonna be the ones 262 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: getting a lot of the time here. Now, do you 263 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: think that there are some teams on the flip side, 264 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: let's turn that on its head. What teams are you 265 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: guys looking to fabe as you see the back half 266 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: of these rosters as relatively weak, or they're dealing with 267 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: new coaching schemes and installs. 268 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 3: I mean, the Falcons catch my eye. 269 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm of two minds about this, and part 270 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 2: of it is just, you know, like rip the Dan 271 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 2: Quinn era when he was just like the auto coach 272 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: that you would bet against in the preseason. The Falcons 273 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 2: are my lowest power rated team. They are so thin 274 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: all over the roster. They were zero to three against 275 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 2: the spread last year in the preseason. They underperformed the 276 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 2: spread by an average of thirteen points last year. That 277 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: I mean, they're just so incredibly bad. Whereas like they 278 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: couldn't help but escort opposing players to the end zone. 279 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 2: But they're likely to have more urgency on offense this 280 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: year because they have Mariota. They have Rider or two 281 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: new quarterbacks who are in like something of a quarterback battle, 282 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: like not like a full on quarterback battle. But I 283 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 2: think they're going to give both of those guys extended 284 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: opportunity to get playing time in the preseason. And because 285 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 2: of that, I'm probably not as desirous to fade them 286 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: as I normally would be. But that's the team that 287 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 2: kind of catches my eye. Like if I were to 288 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 2: enter the preseason just thinking, oh, I'm automatically fading this team, 289 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: it would probably be the Falcons. 290 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 5: I think the Falcons are really interesting because and a 291 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 5: key for preseason that we should probably talk about is 292 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 5: you have to kind of stay up on what teams 293 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 5: are doing in practice. You got to stay up on 294 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 5: what's going on in camp. You know, beat writers usually 295 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 5: writing or report every day. And I actually read a 296 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 5: report on the Falcons a couple of days ago. I 297 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 5: believe it was in the Athletic and Arthur Smith was 298 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 5: in last year, the team wasn't really deep, they had 299 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 5: a lot of guys hurt, and so they decided to 300 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 5: kind of play, you know, play it close to the 301 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 5: vest in preseason. 302 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 6: They didn't really push anybody. 303 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 5: And this year, he says, they're a lot healthier and 304 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 5: they have more depth, and so starters are actually going 305 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 5: to play and they're going to play with you know, 306 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 5: as you said, for even more urgency because they felt 307 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 5: that what happened last preseason actually carried over into the 308 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 5: regular season. So you have to kind of be up 309 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 5: on this because yes, the Falcons, you know, at first glance, 310 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 5: seemed like a team like, oh yeah, they were terrible 311 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 5: last season, the arrested other guys. They actually want to 312 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 5: do the exact opposite this year, so you have to 313 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 5: kind of you know, be aware of stuff like that. 314 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 5: And uh, they are going up against the Detroit Lions, 315 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 5: who both teams they're going to play their starters, you know, 316 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 5: in that game. But it's just been really profitable to 317 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 5: fade these teams on hard knocks, you know, and we've 318 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 5: seen a big line move in that game. You know, 319 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 5: the Lions opened as three point favorites and then now 320 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 5: the Falcons are minus one and a half at some books. 321 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 5: And in the preseason, when a line moves four or 322 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 5: more points, uh, that that actually following it and not 323 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 5: fading it has worked. It's been sixty percent thirty eight, 324 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 5: twenty five and five going back to two thousand and four. 325 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 5: So I actually might like the Falcons in this spot 326 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 5: this weekend. 327 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: And that's a really interesting point that I wanted to 328 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: touch on here because I know we talked about it 329 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: a little bit before we came on air. These line 330 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: points are these line movements are a really big source 331 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: of first off, potential closing line value, but also a 332 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: chance to mind some information here and maybe take advantage 333 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: of a better number, you like, actually following some of 334 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: these movements here. 335 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, there's certain times when you want to 336 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 5: be contrarian, and again, no one really knows anything, So 337 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 5: I think there's always value of being contrarian preseason, regular 338 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 5: season whatever. People always underestimate varians things like that. But 339 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 5: interestingly enough, in the preseason there are also a couple 340 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 5: of scenarios where kind of following the money has actually 341 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 5: been profitable, you know, in terms of tailing a line move. 342 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 6: So one of them is what I just mentioned. 343 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 5: You know, when the spread moves four or more points, 344 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 5: that's pretty drastic. Usually the you know, that team has 345 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 5: ended up covering at a sixty percent clip. Again that's 346 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 5: the Falcons. And then also when we've seen totals drop 347 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 5: by two or more points, those are hitting out a 348 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 5: fifty seven percent clip. So there are there are some 349 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 5: spots where you know, when again it's preseason, a lot 350 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 5: of these lines are going to kind of be very 351 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 5: cookie cutter. 352 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 6: They're all within that, you know. 353 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 5: Kind of thirty to thirty seven point range. The spreads 354 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 5: are usually around a field goal. So anytime you see 355 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 5: a line moving two, three, four points, that is massive, 356 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 5: like even more massive than it would be in the 357 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 5: regular season because you're coming from a baseline of a 358 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 5: lower scoring game. You know, like four divided into thirty 359 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 5: five is more than four divided into the average total 360 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 5: of a regular season game, which is more like forty six. 361 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 1: You completely make a good point there about the totals 362 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: and how much these point movements mean in a game 363 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: with a lower total like this, where you're expecting such 364 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: shorter scoring, and again the fact that the game is 365 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 1: also going to be shorter, most likely because teams aren't 366 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: really concerned about clock management here. We know Andy Reid 367 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: for many years carried that over into the regular season, 368 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: but it is a very big factor. The game is 369 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: mostly going to run shorter, You're gonna have fewer plays, 370 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: and that goes back to what Matt said earlier.

But we're just gonna power through it. The 402 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 2: things that I am looking for, I'm looking to bet 403 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,360 Speaker 2: the Rams under Sean McVay is never playing his starters, 404 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 2: his offensive players in this game. I think he is 405 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 2: like ten four and one to the under as a 406 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: head coach. I'm looking to play the Bills, they're ten 407 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 2: to four and one and against the spread. And preseason 408 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 2: under Sean McDermott, looking to play Pete Carroll. That dude 409 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 2: just likes to try to win meaningless games. And I'm 410 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: looking at teams that have quarterback battles because I think 411 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: their offenses, their play callers will take those games more seriously. 412 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: And finally, teams that are eligible for the Wong Teaser. 413 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 2: So teams that can go through three and through seven 414 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 2: with lower spreads, sorry, with lower totals, those games tend 415 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 2: to be more valuable and the preseason that is like 416 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: a total low total environment, so a perfect time to 417 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 2: go for Wong teasers. And we have a lot of 418 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 2: games that are in that area because it's the preseason, 419 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 2: so a lot of you know, plus two's plus two 420 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 2: and a half. So I think it's a good environment 421 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: for looking to exploit that that opportunity. 422 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: Now, Chris, you have one more trend that you wanted 423 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: to give us here. 424 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I think a lot of times when 425 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 5: people think about the preseason, they look at the you know, 426 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 5: they try to handicap the game and they say, okay, 427 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 5: how long in the start is going to play? And 428 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 5: you know a lot of times what that does is 429 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 5: that tends to create value on you know, not just 430 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 5: the full game totals that we talked about, but also 431 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 5: the first half unders. You know, when when you see 432 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 5: a first half under, and specifically at outdoors, which makes 433 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 5: sense because you know, in domes things are just a 434 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 5: little easier for offenses, but outdoor first half unders when 435 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 5: the home team is the underdog ninety eight fifty nine 436 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 5: and three sixty two percent uh since two thousand and four, 437 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 5: and if you filter by non conference it gets even better. 438 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 5: Eighty five forty five and three to the first half 439 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 5: under and you have three of the games that match 440 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,959 Speaker 5: those trends, the Giants at the Patriots, the Jets at 441 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 5: the Eagles, and the Bucks at the Miami Dolphins. 442 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: Chris, thank you so much for joining us here today. 443 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: We really appreciate the time.
