Being bank small banks, I like to make money. 9 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 4: All right, This is the ultimate combine if you want 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 4: to be and we are underway. 11 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: Welcome to the Action Network Podcast presented by DraftKings. I 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: am your host, Evan Abrams, and I am joined by 13 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: Brandon Anderson for some best bets for NFL Week thirteen. 14 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 2: We are coming to you a little earlier this week. 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, a special special week for betting, for family, 16 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: for all sorts of great stuff. But it is Thanksgiving, 17 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: so hopefully you can get some of those bets in 18 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: before your Thanksgiving afternoon nap. We will get to those 19 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: bets shortly, but first I've got just on trend one 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: fun thing that'll kind of just set up a conversation. 21 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 2: I've seen this talked about in other places. Everybody uses 22 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: very different data when it comes to betting, ticket data, 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 2: betting money data, things of that nature. For us at 24 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 2: Action Network, we have sixty percent of tickets this year 25 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: sitting at or more sitting at forty two and seventy 26 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 2: three against the spread thirty six point five percent. No 27 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: matter what data and where it comes from, it's a 28 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 2: crazy number. And the other number, which I just confirmed, 29 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 2: and it feels like, honestly, sometimes it feels like that 30 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: when you're betting every week, But eleven of the twelve 31 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: weeks below five hundred against the spread for those sixty 32 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: percent of tickets or more. Now, the interesting thing is 33 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: the reason I'm kind of talking about this to kind 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: of set the table here is public sides on Thanksgiving 35 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: have been really good historically. Favorites of crush forty and 36 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 2: twenty against the spread since two thousand and four. If 37 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: you look at just public sides, thirty six and twenty 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: five hundred ats are better every year since twenty fourteen, twelve, 39 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: the last thirteen. So you've got kind of two different 40 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: things coming at you from what we've seen so far 41 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: this season with a little bit of a topsy turvy 42 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: year and some historical stuff for Thanksgiving. Now, if you 43 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: look at DraftKings, they've got as of now we're recording 44 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: about Tuesday night, about fifty seven percent of the tickets 45 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: on Cincinnati sixty two percent of the tickets on the 46 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: Cowboys and at Action here we mirror that it's about 47 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: the same. So basically heading into the weekend, the Cowboys 48 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 2: and Bengals might be two sides that kind of fall 49 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: into this. Brandon, I'll bring you in now. Obviously don't 50 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,679 Speaker 2: have to comment anything on really the ticket nature here, 51 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 2: but more or less the Bengals and the Cowboys. We're 52 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 2: gonna talk about the games in a second. But interesting 53 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 2: that they feel like they're popular. 54 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 5: It is interesting. I'm not so surprised with the Bengals. 55 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 5: Joe Burrow's back and it certainly we'll get to that 56 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 5: one in a bit. That one screams you got to 57 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 5: get out of the Bengals here, Like it feels like 58 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 5: a trappy line to me, just because of what we 59 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 5: know with Burrow. I'm surprised by Cowboys. You know, I 60 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 5: was on Chiefs on the look Ahead at three and 61 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 5: a half. Certainly, I even we literally talked about it. 62 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 5: There's no way you're going to put this below three. 63 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 5: They'd get so much money on Kansas City and it's 64 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 5: not below three, but it's at the three. I'm currently 65 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 5: at minus colv, which is not the goal on the 66 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 5: look ahead. 67 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 4: I did not. 68 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 5: Expect this to be a Dallas spot, and I don't know, 69 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 5: maybe I should have. I was on Dallas against the 70 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 5: Eagles last week, so I expected that result potentially to 71 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 5: go that way. 72 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 4: And if you expect that. 73 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 5: Then maybe that's the direction the line goes as well. 74 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 5: But a lot of public belief in the Cowboys and 75 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 5: maybe finally folks starting to disbelieve a little bit in 76 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 5: the Chiefs. 77 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: Not me. 78 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 5: I got the Chiefs shirt on today. I'm not backing 79 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 5: down from the Chiefs pick. We'll get into that. And yeah, 80 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 5: like you said, public favorites especially has been a very 81 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 5: popular trend and Thanksgiving is a very trendsy spot and 82 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 5: a very favorite spot for me over the years. So 83 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 5: that's kind of where I start with these games. And yeah, 84 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 5: it's a really good slate this year. I'll say that 85 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 5: we're gonna lean very heavily on Today's show into Thanksgiving 86 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 5: and Black Friday and really go deep on all four 87 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 5: of these games.

The 121 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 3: first Thanksgiving Day game ever played was here in Detroit 122 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 3: to Chicago Bears at Detroit, and to me, there's nothing better. 123 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 3: There's just certain things that go together, you know, the turkey, 124 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 3: the family, the tradition, football, and we have it all today. 125 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: Brandon, you got your pick six, your six bets, your 126 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 2: six money lines.

So we're 130 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 5: recording lists Tuesday dinner time, which is about forty eight 131 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 5: hours ahead of where we normally would, so no pick 132 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 5: six this week. Instead, we're doing the Thanksgiving spread here 133 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 5: starting out right away, and that also means we have 134 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 5: to attack the slate a little differently because by Tuesday 135 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 5: midday there aren't really even a lot of lines up 136 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 5: for props, and you know, all the escalator type stuff 137 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 5: that I usually like to attack on a Sunday just 138 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 5: not really available yet. So there are those all four 139 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 5: Thanksgiving We're gonna go kind of Thanksgiving style here, So 140 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 5: we're gonna start with the main course. We'll do in 141 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 5: depth on all three Thanksgiving games and Black Friday as well, 142 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,919 Speaker 5: kind of like we do our Monday in our previews. 143 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 5: So we'll do a preview the game. I've got to 144 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 5: pick a side on all four of the games. We'll 145 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 5: talk props and some of the kind of Thanksgiving fun 146 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 5: long shots at our sponsored draftking some of those sort 147 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 5: of things. Then we're gonna get to the sides and leftovers. 148 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 5: So that's the Sunday picks right the left slate. We'll 149 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 5: get to some of the sides then. And then also 150 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 5: no look ahead this week, because again too early in 151 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 5: the week to even have look ahead lines up. But 152 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 5: a little dessert perhaps for our Thanksgiving feast. I've got 153 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 5: a little tasty morsel maybe futures long shot to add 154 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 5: in at the end of our podcast that will go 155 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 5: with our Thanksgiving course. So yeah, main course, like you said, 156 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 5: have you on the Thanksgiving and Black Friday and we'll 157 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 5: get to a few other picks at. 158 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 4: The end and have some fun today. 159 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's nothing more like an entree when you talk 160 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 2: about the NFC North and the Lions, and of course 161 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 2: David Montgomery. So why don't you get us started? What 162 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: are you doing with that game? 163 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, Lions are below the key number here, which is 164 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 5: we talked about on Sunday night what I was hoping 165 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 5: to see here. So I'm going to take the Lions 166 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 5: minus two and a half against the Packers. I just 167 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 5: think the Lions are a little bit better at everything, honestly, 168 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 5: that not by much, just a little bit by dB away. 169 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 5: Detroit slately ahead offense and defense, way ahead in special teams. 170 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 5: They did lose in Week one to green but they 171 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 5: had won six of the last seven in this rivalry 172 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 5: before that, so this is a good matchup for Detroit 173 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 5: in recent years. Detroit thing is also healthier right now. 174 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 5: Green Bay's offense, in particular Tucker Craft, has been a 175 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 5: huge loss. Jacobs will see what we get with him 176 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 5: if he plays this game, but probably not his top version, 177 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 5: the line has been banged up, the receivers are still 178 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 5: banged up, or we're just not getting the top version 179 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 5: of the Packers offense right now. And I think too, 180 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 5: you look at the matchup here. We know by now 181 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 5: to a maddening degree at times. Honestly, both these teams 182 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 5: want to run the football. It'd be nice if the 183 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 5: Packers would pass a little bit more sometimes especially, but 184 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 5: both teams want to run. And here I think that 185 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 5: is advantage Detroit because here's the numbers. Lions offense eighth 186 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 5: in DVA rushing the ball versus sixteenth Packers defensively, so 187 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 5: top quarter of the league versus league average. Advantaged Detroit. Well, 188 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 5: when green Bay is the ball, it's about the opposite. 189 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 5: There's seventeenth rushing, so again average, the lines are top ten, 190 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 5: and again we don't know what Jacobs will be able 191 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 5: to give. So I think that's advantage both ways. For Detroit. 192 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 5: Lines are also number two most frequent attacking middle of 193 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 5: the field, top ten EPA per play. There that's an 194 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 5: area the Packers have not been great. Their linebackers can 195 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 5: be hit or miss. They're twenty seventh and epa per 196 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 5: play and a lot, a lot of volume middle of 197 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 5: the field. Also a lot of short passes, and of 198 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 5: course that's where Detroit loves to live too. Their number 199 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 5: one EPA per play, high frequency that is Amanara Saint Brown, 200 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 5: It's Jamior Gibbs is check down city and let those 201 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 5: guys go to work. I just think that is what 202 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 5: Detroit is built to do here. So these are actually 203 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 5: the top two defenses at home this season. Well, only 204 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 5: one team is at home on Thanksgiving, that of course 205 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 5: is Detroit. We know year after year the Packers on 206 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 5: the road are twenty second by DBA defensively, so a 207 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 5: huge drop off for them from second all the way 208 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 5: to almost bottom ten there. So I like the spot 209 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 5: for Detroit. Of course, the stat we always have to 210 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 5: mention when it's a Detroit home game Jared Goff with 211 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 5: the Lions indoors thirty six fourteen and a one ats 212 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 5: seventy two percent. The Lions have now won ten straight 213 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 5: games by six or more. So if this does get 214 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 5: back two Lions minus three, I'm still playing that number 215 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 5: as well. I don't really get too daunted by that. 216 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 5: And then a couple of Thanksgiving trends here. I always 217 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 5: have those on these games, you fade the Lions when 218 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 5: they're underdogs, you bet them as favorites. That's what the 219 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 5: last two decades have told us. Four and ten against 220 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 5: the spread, Detroit as an underdog four and two ATS 221 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 5: as a favorite, covering almost by a touchdown a game. 222 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 5: And of course you take anyone but Dallas as the 223 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 5: favored on Thanksgiving thirty one and eleven ATS seventy four 224 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 5: percent cover rate by over six points a game. So 225 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 5: Lions minus two and a half obviously get it below 226 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 5: the key number if you can, as always, and probably 227 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 5: two maybe the last chance to buy Detroit in the 228 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 5: division as non favorites, they're plus one seventy. This obviously 229 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 5: is a huge game for that because they're facing green Bay. 230 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 5: They can't lose this one. Green Bay would get the sweep, 231 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 5: that's not good news. But Chicago will get to on 232 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 5: the Friday game touchdown underdogs. So if the Lions win 233 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 5: as favorites, the Packers lose and the Bears lose, that's 234 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 5: gonna obviously dramatically change the division outcome as well. So 235 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 5: I think that's kind of a good escalator play here 236 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 5: if you do like the Lions, but gimme Detroit at 237 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 5: minus two and a half. 238 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 2: To me, the most interesting thing in the game is 239 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: the fact that both teams are missing their tight ends 240 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 2: and tight ends that are like really vital to different 241 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 2: parts of their offense, whether it be third down, whether 242 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: it be first downs. Like the Porta and Craft are 243 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: very very good players and really really like what they 244 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 2: do for the offense. I feel like the motor that 245 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 2: lets them move downfield is going to be kind of 246 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 2: the key here. So interesting to see what happens there. 247 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 2: I mean, since seventeen Packers four twelve and one ats 248 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: versus the Lions, and that's even with the Week one 249 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: beating of Detroit, so kind of interesting there. But to me, 250 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 2: the thing I wanted to talk about was Montgomery. So 251 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: I love the rush attempts here because I feel like they, 252 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: you know, Gibbs will get his work, but I think 253 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: some of that will be in the past game. So 254 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,079 Speaker 2: Montgomery's had over nine and a half rush attempts eight 255 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: straight versus Green Bay and touchdown in for the last 256 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: six versus the Packers, So I do feel like that 257 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: bet interesting. Nonetheless, the thing that I saw when looking 258 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: at the Lions box score a little more Montgomery in 259 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 2: the past game sixteen seventeen routes. The last few weeks 260 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 2: kind of been seeing that a lot more of Gibbs obviously, 261 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 2: so found that kind of intriguing. 262 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. 263 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 5: So I'm actually in on Lions running backs here, on 264 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 5: both passing and rushing. So look, I wanted lines running 265 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 5: backs last week, I said, I leaned to Gibbs and 266 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 5: then didn't pull the trigger, and then Gibbs put up 267 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 5: like a thousand yards on the Giants. 268 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 4: So no, can't do here. 269 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 5: But it looks like Gibbs seems to be the with 270 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 5: Dan Camilcolling plays Montgomery last two weeks only five carries 271 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 5: and six carries in those games, but the snaps are 272 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 5: still there. It's been a bit negative game script and 273 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 5: I think too. I thought Gibbs last week because they 274 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 5: were better running outside against the Giants, which we saw 275 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 5: come to fruition. Well, this matchup, the Packers are much 276 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 5: worse defending inside arounds twenty fifth by Epapril play versus 277 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 5: six outside. Detroit's better inside and not to me, smells 278 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 5: like Montgomery, Like you said, he's been the guy against 279 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 5: Green Bay and just in five games since Gibbs was drafted, 280 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 5: which I think is fair to limit the sample here. 281 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 5: Montgomery's had eleven, fourteen, fifteen, seventeen, and thirty two carries, 282 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 5: so almost eighteen carries a game sixty eight yards. Not 283 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 5: great on the yardage, so I'm not gonna go crazy 284 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 5: with the yards bet here, and I thought, okay, give 285 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 5: me the rushing attempts. So ten rushing attempts is why 286 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 5: I looked at But that's minus one twenty five. I 287 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 5: don't love the median outcome there, especially pretty well used 288 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 5: with the lower role lately. But in thirty games since 289 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 5: Gibbs was drafted where Montgomery's had double digit carries, He's 290 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 5: a touchdown twenty three of those, so about three quarters 291 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 5: of the time. And he also has five touchdowns and 292 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 5: five Packers games as well in that stretch. So I'll 293 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 5: play the touchdown for Montgomery at plus one point forty, 294 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 5: and then I will play rushing attempts just the higher 295 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 5: line fifteen attempts at seven to one. Take a bit 296 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 5: of an upside swing there, and hope that if that 297 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 5: run game is going well inside, if we're right, let's 298 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 5: really be right. So that's the Montgomery play. I do 299 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 5: like Gibbs. I just like him. As a receiver in 300 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 5: this game. So the Packers have allowed four receptions or 301 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 5: more to running back, to all running backs, I should say, 302 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 5: in eight of eleven games this season. 303 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: What's weird is they've. 304 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 5: Actually allowed exactly four or five in all but one 305 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 5: of those eight games. The one is Detroit, who had 306 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 5: fourteen running back catches in Week one aga into the Packers, 307 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 5: including ten by Jamior Gibbs. Gibbs is actually getting more 308 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 5: snaps lately. And you mentioned Montgomery's routes are up. Gibbs's 309 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 5: routes are even further up. That to me is the 310 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 5: Samuel Porter thing. They got a funnel route somewhere, and 311 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 5: I think they're using these guys, even Moore's receivers. Gibbs 312 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 5: has had two straight weeks now where he's the second 313 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 5: highest line in first read target shares, presumably behind Amana 314 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 5: Saint Brown because that's how it goes. But he's kind 315 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 5: of become their second receiver. Jamison Williams still hasn't become 316 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 5: that he's the big play guy, but Gibbs is getting 317 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 5: a lot of volumes. So he's had all three of 318 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 5: his seasons now four games with five or more receptions, 319 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 5: So we'll play that five receptions at plus one point fifty. 320 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 5: Gibbs also has five games now where he's had at 321 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 5: least seven catches, including that Packers game Week one, and 322 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 5: last week he had eleven catches against the Giants, So 323 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 5: I will play seven Gibbs catches at six to one 324 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 5: odds as well. So Montgomery for watching volume and the 325 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 5: touchdown Gibbs receptions escalator five and seven. 326 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think some of those angles you're discussing will 327 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 2: be good for the Props Futures Thanksgiving special section as well. 328 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 2: When you're looking at most yards most of this most that, 329 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: I think losing report on that offense kind of creates 330 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 2: an opportunity. But we can talk about that in a minute. 331 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 2: The other one, David Montgomery two touchdowns nine to one 332 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: at DraftKings. Kind of like that as well. I feel 333 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: like they usually go one way or the other. It's 334 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: been a lot of Gibbs lately. Like I feel like 335 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 2: inside runs they can give Montgomery two touchdowns, especially without 336 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: report in the red zone. 337 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 5: All right, Yeah, I'm never gonna be grudge a two 338 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 5: touchdown touch if I'm on the one touchdown. Weird thing 339 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 5: with Montgomery if you look at his game log, he 340 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 5: just has one touchdown exactly one game after game after game, 341 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 5: So I don't know what's happening with that, but nine 342 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 5: to one I can't argue with that in a game 343 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 5: here where we're hoping he does find the end zone once. 344 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 4: I can never be upset about a little escalator play. 345 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 2: And might I might be wrong about this, but I 346 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: feel like last year that they on Thanksgiving, he got 347 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,719 Speaker 2: up there and didn't eat the turkey or wouldn't eat 348 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 2: the turkey, and there was some like viral clip about that. 349 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: So we'll make sure to get that back again when 350 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 2: he scores too this week. All right, let's keep going here, 351 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: Casey Dallas. So Casey's sitting at like three and a 352 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 2: half over under highest on Thanksgiving and Black Friday at 353 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 2: fifty two and a half. We had talked about it before, Dallas, 354 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: a popular pick six, sitting at sixty nine percent of 355 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 2: bets for US fifty two I mean, sorry, sixty two, 356 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 2: sixty three percent at DraftKings. What are you doing in 357 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 2: this crucial game for both teams? Real fun one, This 358 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 2: might be the most like watch game of all time. Honestly, 359 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: these two teams. 360 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 5: Honestly, it might be in a certainly, both teams helped 361 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 5: it out, with the Chiefs get the comeback win against 362 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 5: the Colts, Dallas gets the huge comeback against the Eagles, 363 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 5: and because of that, this line ends up kind of 364 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 5: sticking really with Dallas. But like I said, I'm on 365 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 5: the Chiefs here. Still some minus three is out there, 366 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 5: so I will happily take it at the key number. 367 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna be too upset if I have to 368 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 5: play it past that number, as I already took that 369 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 5: on the look ahead. So Dallas got the big Philly upset. 370 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 5: I feel like that is what's happening to the line here. 371 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 5: But I thought the Chiefs were actually even more dominant 372 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 5: in their game against the Colts. Four hundred and ninety 373 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 5: four yards to two hundred and fifty five in that game, 374 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 5: thirty three to ten in first downs, ten first downs 375 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 5: for a Colts offense that's been so good, ninety one 376 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 5: to fifty plays. They held the Colts to twenty points 377 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 5: on eleven drives. These are all numbers we said Sunday night, 378 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 5: but are helpful to remember again of just how good 379 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 5: a win that was for the Chiefs. And so I 380 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 5: think that's being a little bit overlooked because you know, 381 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 5: we all got to watch more of Dallas Philly. There 382 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 5: was nothing else on in the afternoon, and we saw 383 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 5: the huge comebacks. It resonates more. But I thought Kansas 384 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 5: City probably that was their best game of the season. 385 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 5: And that's sort of what the Chiefs do, is that 386 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 5: they peak late in the season. That's what they've done 387 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 5: now year after year. And the Chiefs offense still doesn't 388 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 5: really feel great, but I think they're still better by 389 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 5: the numbers DVAA. They're better running and pass then Dallas here, 390 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 5: and I think it doesn't feel great because they never 391 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 5: take the home run swing right, and we want mahomes 392 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 5: to be fun. We want them to do the six 393 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 5: touchdowns on Thanksgiving thing. And it's not a lot of 394 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 5: home run swings. It's single, single, single, it's just like 395 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 5: just move the ball, move the chains. But against this defense, 396 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 5: I think that's gonna work. The Chiefs are top five 397 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 5: and success rate, Dallas is thirty first and success rate defensively, 398 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 5: so that to me reads like an offense that can 399 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 5: just run the ball on first down, up, second and five, 400 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 5: run the ball again, third and two. Oh, another third 401 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 5: down conversion like it's gonna be boring. 402 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 4: But that is what the Chiefs do. Is that they got. 403 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,959 Speaker 5: Six times into the red zone against the Colts, they 404 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 5: would have won comfortably, they were just one of six, 405 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 5: So hopefully we get some better red zone production here. 406 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 5: And honestly, I think the Chiefs might hit the deep 407 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 5: ball as well. They are top seven EPA per play 408 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 5: on deep passes and the Cowboys are second worst there 409 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 5: as well. So I know talk about Dallas defense improving. Okay, 410 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 5: well since the bye week since Quinn Williams. Who have 411 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 5: they played. They played the Raiders, who have since fired 412 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 5: their offensive coordinator because they scored ten points last week, 413 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 5: so let's maybe not make too much of beating up 414 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 5: on the Raiders. And they played the Eagles, who have 415 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 5: dumped on all season for having inconsistent offense and who, 416 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 5: by the way, started touchdown touchdown touchdown in that game. 417 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 5: So is Dallas improved, Yes, absolutely, Improvement does not necessarily 418 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 5: mean great or even good. Yet I think they're better, 419 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 5: like the Chiefs defense is also improving at the same 420 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 5: time this year, as good as they just looked against 421 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 5: the Colts, and so I think that they're set up well. 422 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 5: The Chiefs allowed three receiving touchdowns in the opener to 423 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 5: the Chargers in Brazil, they've only allowed three since then. 424 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 5: So if you can limit Pickens and Lamb, if you 425 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 5: can play a lot of too high safety, which is 426 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 5: what SPAGS usually does with the Chiefs, Dallas has blown 427 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 5: up single high this year. But I don't think they're 428 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,239 Speaker 5: gonna get me those opportunities. And I just think this 429 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 5: sits well for the Chiefs here. So time honor tradition. 430 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 5: On Thanksgiving we fade the Cowboys. That's like the easiest 431 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 5: play on the entire NFL slate. Most years since twenty eleven, 432 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 5: Cowboys are three and eleven ATS on Thanksgiving twenty one percent, because, 433 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 5: like you said, Evan, everyone wants to bet on the 434 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 5: Cowboys on Thanksgiving, so they are not the team to 435 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 5: beat on. Non Dallas favorites seventy four percent ATS on Thanksgiving. 436 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 5: And I thought, honestly, since it's the Chiefs, we'd get 437 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 5: a public favorite spot here. Doesn't sound like we are 438 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 5: so public non Dallas favorites eighty percent ats. Doesn't seem 439 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 5: like we're going to go that direction. I don't really care. 440 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 5: I'm comfortable with the Chiefs either way. Give me the 441 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 5: Chiefs minus three. 442 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't care at all. I've heard that multiple times. 443 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: I mean, listen when you talk about road favorite, road 444 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: favorites on Thanksgiving twenty five and one straight up since 445 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 2: two thousand and four, only lost coming back in two 446 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: thousand and nine, so that one is kind of held 447 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: true and it's been talked about. We talked about in 448 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: the Favorites this morning, like home teams on Thanksgiving, maybe 449 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 2: not as much of an home deeled advantage like other 450 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 2: things going on the road Thanksgiving stuff, especially a better 451 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: team in that situation twenty and six against the number 452 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 2: as well. Interesting spot here with Mahomes. So Mahomes faced 453 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 2: a team on short rest. Obviously Mahomes on short rest 454 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 2: as well, regardless of he is as well, He's nineteen 455 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 2: and three in his career. He's won thirteen straight, last 456 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 2: loss coming in twenty twenty one, So regardless of if 457 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 2: he's on Thursday or whatever it is, when his opponent 458 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: doesn't have enough time to prepare for Kansas City, he's 459 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 2: won thirteenth straight. And to go with your angle on 460 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 2: Kansas City, the one thing I might look at, I'm 461 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: a little scared of Cowboys' second half I mean Dallas 462 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 2: one in seven against the first half spread on Thanksgiving 463 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 2: since twenty seventeen, two and thirteen last fifteen since twenty ten, 464 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 2: and you get that under three, so case minus two 465 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 2: and a half first half. So maybe that's a look. 466 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 2: And in terms of the props, I kind of like 467 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 2: where you're headed here because this guy has been the 468 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,880 Speaker 2: focal of the offense. What are you doing there? Yeah? 469 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 5: I want Chiefs passing overs here. So Rashie Rice, I 470 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 5: think is here talking about and Patrick Mahomes. I got 471 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 5: a couple of props on each, and I'll say this, 472 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 5: these are probably my least favorite props of the ones 473 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 5: I'm gonna give. 474 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 4: Out, just because they're really juiced. 475 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 5: I think everyone wants to bet against Dallas and everyone 476 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 5: wants to play overs on Thanksgiving, so the juice is 477 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: pretty rough on these, but I still think they're pretty good. 478 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 5: Rashi Rice as a touchdown guy, that's where I'm gonna 479 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 5: go with this one. Dallas has allowed eighteen wide receiver 480 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 5: touchdowns already this season, three more than any team especially 481 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 5: to wide receiver ones twelve touchdowns in eleven games, so 482 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 5: obviously better than one per game, including two to two 483 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 5: and three touchdown games. Eight of eleven wide receiver ones 484 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 5: have had at least a score against the Cowboys. That's 485 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 5: clearly Rashiah Rice. He is the wide receiver one in 486 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 5: Kansas City. He's scored a touchdown in three or five 487 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 5: this year, five of the last seven now. And also 488 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,479 Speaker 5: I think he's actually due for more scoring. He has 489 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 5: already eight or eight targets inside the ten yard line 490 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 5: that ranks third among all receivers for the entire season. 491 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 5: He missed the first five games, and he's third in 492 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 5: targets inside the ten HOO'SI behind DeVante Adams and Aman 493 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 5: Ross Saint Brown, who have nineteen combined touchdowns on their 494 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 5: targets inside the ten. Rashi Race has three. So that's 495 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 5: the sort of volume that he's seeing and should be 496 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 5: getting more of. It's already priced in a little bit. 497 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 5: It's minus one twenty five, so you're not gonna see 498 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 5: me play a touchdown bet like that too often. 499 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 4: But he's the guy alike here. 500 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 5: And then, like you said, with the two touchdowns five 501 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 5: to one, anytime you play one touchdown, you should think 502 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 5: about two. And then I think Mahomes as well. Dallas 503 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 5: has allowed the most passing touchdowns twenty four of any team, 504 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 5: seven of eleven games at least two five of elevens 505 00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 5: almost half at least three touchdowns, including such luminary as 506 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 5: Bow Knicks and Caleb Williams putting up four passing touchdowns 507 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 5: on them. Weird Mahomes numbers this year. He's only had 508 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 5: four games all season with more than one passing touchdown. 509 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 5: That's not an MVP season. But when he does go 510 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 5: over one, he's not at any two touchdown games all year. 511 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 5: He goes straight for the Big Game three three, three 512 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 5: and four touchdowns, so I'm going straight for the Big Game. 513 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 5: Two three touchdowns for Mahomes is plus one point fifty four. 514 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 5: And again, these are pretty juice numbers considering the past, 515 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 5: like the Chiefs offense, where we're sort of betting on 516 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 5: the Chiefs looking like what we think the Chiefs should 517 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 5: look like. That's not how they usually play this year, 518 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 5: but they don't usually get to play the Cowboys, so 519 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 5: I'm kind of hoping that that evens things out and 520 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 5: gives us a little value on Rashid and I'm Mahomes. 521 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you get Pa Checko back hopefully, so that 522 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 2: probably takes away the ability of maybe a Mahomes scramble 523 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: for a touchdown that would ruin your three, So you 524 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 2: assume all of them would come through the air the 525 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 2: stat that you had, which I had as well, which 526 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 2: just shows how voke like the offense is all around 527 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 2: Rashi Rice Rush attempts plus targets inside the ten since 528 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 2: week seven, Rashi Rice has ten, Kareem Hunt has ten, 529 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 2: Kelsey four, Brishard four, Pachecko three, So Rice tied with 530 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 2: Hunt in Rush attempts and targets inside the ten since 531 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 2: week seven when he came back. So to me, he 532 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 2: is everything for them in that window. And I think, honestly, 533 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 2: for some of us, probably everything we thought worthy might 534 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 2: be this year is kind of what Rashi Rice is 535 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 2: at the moment. So also Dallas thirtieth versus wide receiver 536 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 2: ones DVOA. So this one to me just feels like 537 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 2: they're going to try to get him the ball in 538 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 2: every situation, and it's like it's pivotal time. There's no 539 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 2: you know, not running plays, not doing this like Kansas 540 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 2: City needs to win to stay in it. So you're 541 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 2: gonna see the kitchen sink. In my opinion, Bengals and Ravens. 542 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 2: It's the night game Ravens right now, sitting in my 543 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 2: seven point favorite fifty one and half. The thing that 544 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 2: it's worth bringing up is probably looking at the weather. 545 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: It is about eleven mile an hour wins and you're 546 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 2: gonna get a cold game. It's about thirty two degrees 547 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 2: in Baltimore that night. And of course the story is 548 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow welcome back, most likely anticipated to start in 549 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 2: this one. And other than that, I mean, what are 550 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 2: you doing here? How are you attacking this AFC North 551 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 2: matchup where I mean, the Bengal is pretty much done 552 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 2: but the Ravens needed for their lungs. 553 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, this is a really tricky one for me. So 554 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 5: I'm gonna do a parlay here. I'm gonna play the 555 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 5: under with a Ravens cover, and I do see a book, Ryan, 556 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 5: get an under fifty one and a half and a 557 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 5: Ravens minus six and a half get below that key 558 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 5: number if we can at plus two sixty six. So 559 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 5: let me tell you how I got there. And it's 560 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 5: kind of tricky. So obviously, like you said, Burrow looks 561 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 5: like he is back, but no t Higgins and no 562 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 5: Trey Hendricks in so you'll rather take Burrow if you 563 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 5: get either side of that equation, but those are real 564 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 5: losses for them as well. And then why is tricky 565 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 5: is we don't really know what Burrow will be, but 566 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 5: we don't really know what Lamar is going to be 567 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 5: right now either. It's not playing like himself. The Ravens 568 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 5: have won five in a row, so we're kind of 569 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 5: just be like, oh, the Ravens are back now, but 570 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 5: last three wins one score wins over the Vikings, the Browns, 571 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 5: and the Jets, Like it's not exactly blowing teams away 572 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 5: or really impressing. All right, Well, one score win is 573 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 5: going to be a Bengals cover, So why I'm on 574 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 5: the Ravens side. So Bengals offense trending up. We were 575 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 5: the Bengals. 576 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 4: Podcast last week, we got the cover, we took the cover. 577 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 5: Then top five DVA offensively last six games, and of 578 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 5: course we know how good Burrow is as an underdogs 579 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 5: seventeen and three ats as a dog of three or more, 580 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 5: he's one outright eight of the last thirteen. Normally, I'm 581 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 5: just all over this spot, including in this rivalry. For 582 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 5: the last five meetings have been one score games. The 583 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 5: last two years are averaging sixty three points a game. 584 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 5: So what in the world am I doing taking the 585 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 5: Ravens favored and the under here when this looks like 586 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 5: a shootout? So the Bengals offense wasn't that great against 587 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 5: the Patriots last week. Trust me, I watched a lot 588 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 5: of it. That was my big spot. And Burrow, I 589 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,719 Speaker 5: think it's kind of variable. We don't really know what 590 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 5: we can expect from him. He does when he's not whole, 591 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 5: limit the offense a little bit, the sort of play 592 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 5: calling that they can call around him. There's no t Higgins, 593 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 5: so that adds a variable in as well. And also 594 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 5: the offense has been way better at home, top five 595 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 5: offense at home, bottom five on the road for this season. 596 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 4: Baltimore. 597 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 5: Meanwhile, as much as we focus on Cincinnati's offense improving, 598 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 5: Baltimore's defense has trended wayh up. We kind of forget, 599 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,959 Speaker 5: but they were the Bengals defense early in the season, 600 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 5: like they were the team that will just like play 601 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 5: anyone you can in fantasy against them. Since the bye week, 602 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 5: their top five defense thirteen point four points a game 603 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 5: allowed in these five games that they've won, and the 604 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 5: Bengals offense. I think it is a bad matchup versus 605 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 5: the Ravens as well. On Baltimore's behalf, the Bengals face 606 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 5: the most too high safety of any team in the league, 607 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 5: but their thirtieth and EPA per play on that and 608 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 5: Baltimore since moving Cal Hamilton around, I think that's an 609 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 5: area they've been really good, especially is playing too high, 610 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 5: trying to limit some of those deep balls and getting 611 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 5: picked apart that way. So to me, you mentioned the weather, 612 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 5: I do think that comes into play here, that the 613 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 5: weather a blustery night, cold game. That's a Raven script. 614 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 5: To me, that is a run the ball script, and 615 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 5: the Bengals honestly should be able to run a little bit, 616 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 5: but kind of refuse to commit to it. I think 617 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 5: this is a good spot for the Ravens to run. 618 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 5: Bengals number one in yards allowed to running backs, number 619 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 5: one fantasy points. I was all ready to just do 620 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 5: Derrick Henry props, but they're like juice to high heaven. 621 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 5: So you got to pay like minus two hundred for touchdown, 622 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 5: basically one hundred yards if you wanted the yardage. But 623 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 5: the Bengals play a ton of light box defensively and 624 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 5: they're dead last EPA per play. Baltimore never gets to 625 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 5: face light box. If they get that here, they're second 626 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 5: lowest in the league, but they're number two EPA for 627 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 5: play when they do get the shot. So I think Bengals, 628 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 5: I don't trust them to be able to stop the run. 629 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 5: They're also worse against outside run, where Baltimore is at 630 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 5: its best so far on the season. Bengals all a 631 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 5: ton of explosives. The Ravens early in the season hit 632 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 5: a ton of explosives and that's sort of dried up. 633 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 5: But maybe this is the spot that they find a few, 634 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 5: and then the Thanksgiving trends is really kind of what 635 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 5: got me to the spot where I'm at, which is 636 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 5: again non Dallas favorites on Thanksgiving seventy four percent in 637 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 5: night games alone fourteen and four against the spread favorites 638 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 5: seventy eight percent, and night game unders have also been 639 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 5: the spot twelve and six on Thanksgiving evening, including eight 640 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 5: of the last ten and going under. Now, these teams 641 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 5: are over teams. They're both seven and ford to the 642 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 5: over on the season, and they've been over in the 643 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 5: matchup lately. 644 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 4: But I think if you look big picture. 645 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 5: And say Okay, if I think the Ravens do well, 646 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 5: what did they do well and why? I think they 647 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 5: limited the Bengals offense in a way that was unexpected, 648 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 5: the road offense missing T Higgins, and they kind of 649 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: ran the ball did the cold weather thing got out ahead, 650 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 5: and in that case the Bengals aren't scoring what's expected, 651 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 5: then you like the under and then the Ravens have 652 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 5: a better shot to cover. So I'm gonna play them 653 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 5: both together tepidly, but Ravens minus six and a half 654 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 5: under fifty one and a half. 655 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 4: It's plus two sixty six, and I. 656 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 5: Think I'll back the trends, but I'm gonna play them 657 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 5: together and not super aggressively. 658 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'll touch the total first. Obviously you mentioned 659 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: it over eight and one in their last nine meetings 660 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 2: in this series, but to me, one of those nine 661 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 2: had a total of even forty nine or more. You're 662 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 2: getting fifty one and a half right now, which gets 663 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: vital when you get up there when you talk about 664 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 2: two and a half points plus, So understand the angle there. 665 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 2: Talking about Baltimore, I thought this was kind of interesting. 666 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 2: So cold temperatures, obviously Burrow does fine in that, but 667 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 2: Lamar's played at home thirty five degrees or less six 668 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 2: times six and oh straight up six and oh against 669 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 2: the spread, winning by almost twenty points per game, So 670 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 2: Baltimore really dominated in that space. I think you're right, though. 671 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 2: This Baltimore team right now a little different. Lamar's ankle 672 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 2: looks weird. The offense can't get it together. It honestly 673 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 2: looks like they have switched teams from the beginning of 674 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 2: the season and when you talk about defense and offense 675 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 2: and right now they just can't get it right. Which 676 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 2: this will lead me to one of my bets. I 677 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 2: like for the Thanksgiving specials, but I think this is 678 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: a Derek Henry type game. Like I just think at 679 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 2: any point this will be the time against the Cincinnati 680 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 2: pass rush without Hendrixon out there, Like there's no need 681 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 2: for Lamar to go crazy. So I do think this 682 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 2: is a Henry game and that with that is perfect 683 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 2: for Baltimore to cover as a favorite and for the 684 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 2: game to go under. So completely get that. What do 685 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 2: you got for your props here? 686 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would love I don't mind if you want 687 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 5: to do like Henry, one hundred yards and a touchdown 688 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 5: and a win. That was a bet that I made 689 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 5: offense last year, but that I think is only actually 690 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 5: hit once this season for them, So just not quite 691 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 5: the same Derrick Henry. Maybe this is where he kind 692 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,919 Speaker 5: of moves back that direction because the lines were so bad. 693 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 5: I end up looking where else can I invest in 694 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 5: Baltimore if I like them? 695 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 2: Here? 696 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 5: Well, it's the Bengals. So how about a tight end? 697 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 5: The Bengals are continue to be awful against tight ends. 698 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,879 Speaker 5: They've allowed the most fantasy points their worst guy dv 699 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 5: Away worse against short passes. The Bengals have already allowed 700 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 5: thirteen touchdowns to tight ends on the season, which is 701 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 5: more than any team allowed all of last season. In fact, 702 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 5: they've allowed eleven the last seven games alone. So which 703 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 5: tight end, Well Ravens fans would beg you not Mark Andrews. 704 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 5: The dude can't catch anything right now. I'm taking Mark Andrews. 705 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 5: Isaiah likely not totally healthy right now. So Andrews did 706 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 5: drop a big one last week, like he is known 707 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 5: to do at times, but he also played his most 708 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 5: snaps since Week six, about two thirds of the snaps, 709 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 5: a little bit more in eleven personnel, a little bit 710 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 5: more in the field, and he still is Lamar's guy, 711 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 5: I think in the red zone. So a touchdown in 712 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 5: four of eight games with Lamar Jackson this year now 713 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 5: fourteen of his last twenty, so seventy percent, we get 714 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 5: him at plus one twenty five. I'll take Andrews for 715 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 5: the touchdown, and then this one is kind of just 716 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 5: counter everything I've said about the game. But it's hard 717 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 5: to overlook what Jamar Chase did to the Ravens last 718 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 5: year in those two games. Lest you forgot ten catches 719 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 5: one hundred and ninety three yards and two scores, well wait, 720 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 5: that's just one of the games. The other one eleven catches, 721 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 5: two hundred and sixty four yards and three scores. Remember 722 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 5: that we all watched that one. I think it maybe 723 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 5: it was a Thursday night game. That's like four hundred 724 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 5: and fifty yards and five touchdowns. That's half a season 725 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 5: for most good receivers. So I obviously don't expect that 726 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 5: to happen. I would not parlay this pick with my 727 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 5: Ravens in under because it's very much against the script. 728 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 4: But Chase does hit that big. 729 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 5: Number sometimes one hundred and forty one yards or more 730 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,399 Speaker 5: eight times the last three seasons, so If that is right, 731 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 5: I'll take one hundred and fifty yards at seven to one. 732 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 5: And again I'm not going to add that you get 733 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 5: a huge negative boost into your same game, Parlay. You 734 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 5: put that in, but you shouldn't. If Chase sits on 735 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 5: hundred fifty yards, I don't like the under and I 736 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 5: don't like the Ravens covering, So don't put that in. 737 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 5: But I don't mind playing it because if I'm wrong 738 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 5: about Ravens under and covering, maybe it's because Burrow and 739 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 5: Chase were that good again, and then this kind of 740 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 5: gives a bit of insurance on the other side. So 741 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 5: Chase one hundred and fifty yards at seven to one 742 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 5: and then Mark Andrews four touchdown. 743 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 2: I don't mind like one hundred and twenty five and 744 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,720 Speaker 2: the Ravens to cover in the under. But I understand 745 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: what you mean. And I said that quietly because I 746 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 2: understand what you're saying. But it is an interesting concept 747 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,919 Speaker 2: because Chase could go off and the Bengals still could 748 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 2: not be in this game laid for a multitude of reasons. 749 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 2: If you look at the last three games, Chase is 750 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 2: played with aute Higgins seventeen targets, eleven targets. Eleven targets, 751 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 2: so if you assume he's going to be peppered here 752 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,840 Speaker 2: and four receptions on six targets in the first half 753 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 2: of all three of those games, so early on, it's 754 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 2: gonna be all Jamar Chase here, especially after getting the 755 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 2: week off considerably, so that is completely true. And then 756 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 2: the Mark Andrews angle, this is what I saw kind 757 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 2: of interesting, which would be seven receptions on eight targets 758 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter of the last two games versus 759 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 2: the Bengals. So even if you don't see it early 760 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 2: from Lamar, like when it comes to tooth and nail, 761 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 2: on this one, he's going to go to Andrews for 762 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 2: multitude reasons. Especially Andrews, like you said, a lot more 763 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 2: time out there in terms of pass maps than likely lately, 764 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 2: so I believe that will continue. All right, let's keep 765 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 2: going here. This is gonna be the fun one. Thanksgiving 766 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 2: specials long shots. However you want to do it, I'll 767 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 2: let you go first because I kind of have a 768 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 2: few different angles here and I'll let you kind of 769 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 2: quick hit me with you like it or you hate it. 770 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 5: So yeah, So if you want to just do a 771 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 5: Thanksgiving parlay with the picks I've put out already, So 772 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 5: Lions two and a half, Chiefs three, and then the 773 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 5: Ravens combo, Ravens cover and the under. So you're taking 774 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 5: all three favorites plus the Ravens under. You just want 775 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,479 Speaker 5: to parlay that together. That is at plus twelve thirty five, 776 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 5: so you can start there. But then DraftKings has a 777 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,879 Speaker 5: bunch of these really fun specials up. You can bet 778 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 5: on most passing yards on Thanksgiving, most receiving yards. I 779 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 5: like two of the receiving yards ones. I'm gonna play 780 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 5: the most running back receiving yards and the most tight 781 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 5: end receiving yards, and they shouldn't surprise you. I'm gonna 782 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 5: take Jamir Gibbs and Mark Andrews, so Gibbs plus one 783 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 5: ninety for most running back receiving yards. We're already on 784 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 5: him to get volume there. Chase Brown, I think is 785 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 5: probably the biggest threat, but really not a lot of 786 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 5: great competition there, so I like that one. 787 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 4: A lot. 788 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 5: Andrews yards eh not been great this year. You're not 789 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 5: gonna enjoy looking at his game log, but four to 790 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 5: one against the Bengals, basically, I'm just gonna take a 791 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 5: shot at the at the number and the matchup with 792 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 5: Andrews and maybe turns back the clock and gets a 793 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 5: long catch or two. And then last one for me, 794 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 5: I love on Thanksgiving to do the triple crown So passing, 795 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 5: rush and receiving yardage leaders. 796 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:03,919 Speaker 4: So Derrick Henry. 797 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 5: Is like the free space to me as far as like, 798 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 5: I'm starting there at least with him on this one. 799 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 5: And then I'm gonna go with both Chiefs. So we 800 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 5: played them as well, Mahomes and Rashi. I'll play them together. 801 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 5: Obvious correlation that if Mahomes' yardage is high, where she 802 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,439 Speaker 5: probably goes up as well. So after DraftKings, the two 803 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 5: Chiefs plus Derrick Henry is forty to one for the 804 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 5: triple crowns. So those are the three I found. What 805 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 5: do you like from what you're seeing? 806 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you explain kind of all the intricacies of 807 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 2: each of these categories. Most QB rushing yards. Lamar still 808 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 2: sitting at plus one twenty five with this group, Like, 809 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 2: I just don't feel he hasn't been running lately. Everything 810 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 2: feels off in terms of his run game. Every single week. 811 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 2: There is nothing on the field that tells you to 812 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: make this bet except for the fact that everyone else 813 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 2: just doesn't feel like he could get thirty yards and 814 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 2: win this, and he's plus one twenty five just feels 815 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 2: off priced. When you mentioned most rushing yards. I also 816 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 2: feel like Derrick Henry's kind of miss priced. And it's 817 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 2: also really fun because he's the night game, so you 818 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: at least get to know what you need and can 819 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 2: watch that game in the freezing cold. Hopefully gets a 820 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 2: ton of carries, But that's sitting at like two to one. 821 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: The other one I like in that category is longest 822 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 2: field goal, So Aubrey's sitting at two twenty and McPherson 823 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 2: at four twenty five. Either hits you make money, But 824 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,760 Speaker 2: I kind of like both of those options. You mentioned 825 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 2: Andrews for tight end receiving yards, I didn't see Gasiki 826 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 2: even listed. They've got Fanton Hudson. I thought that's just 827 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 2: an interesting option. He is te one. He should be 828 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 2: out there get the most of the looks you have burrowback, 829 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 2: so wait to see a number there. If it's like 830 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 2: twenty to one or something like that, maybe that's worth 831 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: a shot. Here's a good thing. So I also looked 832 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 2: at the triple Crown Market. You and I are on 833 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 2: the same page with the quarterback, which feels good. I 834 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 2: like Mahomes as well. Instead of Rashi Rice, I went 835 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 2: a little bit off. I went Amanra. I think there 836 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 2: is a chance he could go nuts in this game, 837 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 2: especially with out Laporta and what maybe they fall behind 838 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 2: to Green Bay. So I like am and then I 839 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 2: used three different running backs. I agree Henry's the best 840 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 2: option thirty five to one would be pat Amanran Henry. 841 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 2: I also put Gibbs there. If people put Gibbs there, 842 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 2: he's sixty to one. Obviously, the worry would be the 843 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 2: receiving part, so he doesn't win the rushing title in 844 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 2: this day. And then the off brand one would be 845 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 2: Chase Brown, Like I think there is a chance he's 846 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 2: been rushing really well lately, Like there is a chance 847 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 2: of that. That's eighty to one. I like that the least. 848 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 2: But I agree pat Amanra Henry at thirty five to one, 849 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: and yours of pat Rashid Rice and Henry at forty 850 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 2: to one. Those feel like the two ones I like 851 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 2: the most. 852 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think a lot of those makes sense. 853 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 5: I think probably honestly, I should be playing the Henry 854 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 5: rushing yards one as confident as I am on him 855 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 5: running in this game, and I literally called him a 856 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 5: free space in my triple Crown spot. So pat two 857 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 5: to one. That probably makes sense. I would say two 858 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 5: on the kicking one. I knows DraftKings has an over 859 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 5: underfield goals on Thanksgiving, and then it's like they're just 860 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 5: begging me to bet this. It's over under ten and 861 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 5: a half field goals and then there's a twelve plus 862 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 5: than a fourteen plus. 863 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,839 Speaker 4: They've created a field goals. 864 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 5: Escalator for me on Thanksgiving. I would take it too, 865 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 5: except the only thing holding me back a little bit 866 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 5: is the weather at night, because Tyler Loop is kicking 867 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 5: like three field goals a game for the Ravens right now. 868 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 5: But because of the weather, I'm not gonna go too 869 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 5: crazy there. I counted in my head twelve is what 870 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 5: I think then outcome will be. But to your two 871 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 5: long field goal ones, I'm gonna feel much better about 872 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 5: Brandon Aubrey kicking a seventy yarder in Dallas in the 873 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 5: middle of the day. Then I am McPherson on the 874 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 5: road in Baltimore with the blustery wins and everything. So 875 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 5: I think I would have factored the wind in a 876 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 5: little bit on that one, and I like the Aubrey. 877 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 4: Look, we know he can hit from wherever. 878 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the other one would be baits indoors 879 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 2: like he can kick long ones. But yeah, those are 880 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 2: the angles here. Let me just throw out a few 881 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 2: more and then I'll give you my absolute favorite and 882 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 2: then we can move on. Under eighteen and a half 883 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 2: total touchdowns. Felt like that's intriguing, especially with some of 884 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 2: these totals. To me, you're a little inflated and you 885 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 2: could get some unders here. So under eighteen and a 886 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,839 Speaker 2: half a little high Inde Detroit, I think you can 887 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: honestly play highest score, lowest score, and biggest blowout and 888 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 2: all at plus prices because I think that game has 889 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 2: just a lot of different variables in terms of how 890 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 2: it could go. And then here are the two just 891 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 2: kind of long shots, one more long shot than the other, 892 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 2: but all teams to score a rushing touchdown at eight 893 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,280 Speaker 2: to one. I'll always bet that, especially in these cold 894 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 2: weather months with these just three games, feels intriguing. Here's 895 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 2: the bet I like the most, and it kind of 896 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 2: goes back to what we talked about with Baltimore, but 897 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 2: it always feels like a sucker bet, but I have 898 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 2: to play it. Derrick Henry ten plus rushing yards in 899 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 2: each quarter is plus three hundred, and to me, it's 900 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 2: a bet with probably one quarter. Like he's gonna do 901 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 2: it in the first quarter. In my opinion, I think 902 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 2: the second quarter and the third quarter become the hardest. 903 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 2: I think you're gonna get one and a half to 904 00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 2: two drives probably in both quarters. I think the the 905 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 2: third quarters tricky, depending on the coin tos. Okay, everyone 906 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 2: understands the circumstances here, but I think Derrick Henry goes 907 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 2: crazy and I think there's at least an opportunity there, 908 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 2: and plus three hundred felt a little nice for this one, 909 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: especially if I like his upside. 910 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, I get burned on these every quarter things. Are 911 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 5: you like in the NBA you get the every quarters 912 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 5: or the every game of a playoff series. They're fun 913 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 5: and they make sense in theory, and it's you're literally 914 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 5: you're parlaying four bets together, so you got it. 915 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 4: I like the idea. 916 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 5: We like investing in Derrick Henry, and we don't love 917 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 5: the juice that we're getting in some of the numbers, 918 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 5: So it's a good idea to kind of look for 919 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,879 Speaker 5: some of the longer stuff and like some of these two. 920 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 5: I think that's just a fun bet, Like you know 921 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 5: what you're rooting for. It's the middle of the second 922 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 5: quarter and you're like, come on, one more possession. I 923 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 5: need six more yards from my bet. Like, it's just 924 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 5: kind of fun to have a little something different as well. 925 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 5: So I think that plays too all right. 926 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 2: Black Friday time Bears Eagles. This spread sitting at seven 927 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 2: right now, seems to be coming down a bit. I 928 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't be shocked to see some six and a half 929 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,240 Speaker 2: closer to the game. But forty four and a half 930 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 2: total here, what are you doing with the Bears Eagles? 931 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna take a Bears team total over here. 932 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 5: Give me the overs. Seventeen and a half on the Bears. 933 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 5: I think it's eighteen and a half at some books. 934 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 5: Shouldn't really make too big of a difference for that one. Again, 935 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 5: another blustery looking game, whether in the low forties, fifty 936 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 5: mini hour wins a very Bears Eagles sort of set up. 937 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 5: So stay warm on Black Friday. Put up some Christmas 938 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,839 Speaker 5: decorations if that's your day and unwatch some football. But look, 939 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 5: I know both these teams we've talked about wanting to fade, 940 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 5: but start with the Eagles offense. I don't really know 941 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 5: what happens out side of the ball. That's why I'm 942 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 5: mostly avoiding it. They've been top bottom ten by success rate. 943 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,320 Speaker 5: But the Bears are missing like every linebacker that seems 944 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 5: really bad against the Eagles no matter what they are. 945 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 5: Bears are especially bad covering middle of the field and 946 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 5: under center. But those are two things the Eagles really 947 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 5: don't do. That's just not a Jalen Hurts spot attacking. 948 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 5: They do attack deep pretty well. I don't know how 949 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 5: the weather comes into play there though, and of course 950 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 5: Lane Johnson out, so there's just a lot of randomness 951 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 5: and variables. 952 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 4: I don't really know. 953 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 5: What to expect on that side of the ball. I 954 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,760 Speaker 5: would lean Bears if I had to take a side, 955 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 5: especially at the seven. I'm more like four and a 956 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 5: half five on Chicago. But I'm going to avoid that 957 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 5: side of the ball and just go on the other side. 958 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 5: Right now, everyone's all big on Eagles defense. They shut 959 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 5: down the Packers and the Lions, and then they played 960 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 5: the Cowboys and gave up five hundred yards of offense 961 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 5: almost Pickens was a monster. Dallas ran the ball pretty 962 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 5: well and whichil the Sunday Dallas killed them with play 963 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 5: actions specifically, and the Eagles have been bad against play 964 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,359 Speaker 5: action all year, and that has been Johnson's bread and butter. 965 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 5: Second most play action in the league, top ten EPA 966 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 5: per play. The Eagles also play very heavy light boxes. 967 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 5: That is what Vic Fangio wants to do is try 968 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 5: to get you to beat him that way. That is 969 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 5: where the Bears are at their best top five EPA 970 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 5: per play, and we've talked over and over again how 971 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 5: much that run game has improved since the bye week. 972 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 5: The line especially is playing really well, so Bears team totals. 973 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 5: I'm sure you'll have a stat here, but I know 974 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 5: it's been very strong in the season. They started out 975 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 5: the year hitting that week after week, and because of 976 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 5: I think the weather and the Eagles defense perception, the 977 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 5: line's really low here. The Bears will score nineteen or 978 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 5: more points all but once this season, so they've hit 979 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 5: the over to this line all but that one game. 980 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 5: And I just trust Ben Johnson to finanswers even if 981 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 5: they need it till halftime, I think the Bears will score. 982 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,879 Speaker 5: And look if they score, if they go above this, 983 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,479 Speaker 5: I think there may be more live to steal this game. 984 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,919 Speaker 5: Then we probably expect that they would be going in. 985 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 5: But I'll take it Bears over and then real quick 986 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 5: on a prop here DeVante Smith receptions escalator. 987 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:42,320 Speaker 4: So a key matchup. 988 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 5: I looked at the Eagles played the Saints last year 989 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 5: Week three and they beat them fifteen to twelve. 990 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 4: Okay, who cares, well? 991 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 5: I care because Dennis Allen was the defensive coordinator in 992 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 5: that game. And the fact that they held the Eagles 993 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 5: to only fifteen and it took a last second touchdown really. 994 00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 4: For the Eagles to steal it. 995 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,760 Speaker 5: Not great looking at for the Eagles here, But Davante 996 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 5: in that game ten targets, seven catches, seventy nine yards, 997 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:06,919 Speaker 5: keeps finding spots in the zone. 998 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 4: And Aja was out that game. And we'll play here. 999 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 5: But the Bears have a lot, a lot of fantasy 1000 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 5: points to receivers top five in the league. But they're 1001 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 5: very good actually against wide receiver one and then kind 1002 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 5: of progressively worse down the line. So if we get 1003 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 5: a weather game, I think I prefer the short passing 1004 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 5: the volume, and especially if Devonte can pick apart the 1005 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 5: zone a little bit. So he's had six or more 1006 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,799 Speaker 5: catches in five of nine games this year, I'll play that. 1007 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 5: I'll play six catches at plus two hundred eight catches 1008 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 5: at plus six ninety and just hope that it's a 1009 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 5: DeVante kind of picking apart the spots on this defense. 1010 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,280 Speaker 5: But otherwise give me the Bears over the team total. 1011 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're kind of going with the script here, so 1012 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,439 Speaker 2: I'll give you this Bears eight and three team total over. 1013 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 2: You had said it yourself, second best in the NFL. 1014 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 2: So they've been, you know, going over doing the Ben 1015 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 2: Johnson thing doing well. I feel like this team total 1016 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 2: a little considering you said it Green Bay, Detroit and 1017 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: some of the Dallas game. Phillies defense, but the thing 1018 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 2: that's interesting is this to me, so Phillies rush defense 1019 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 2: second in EPA but sixteenth in success rate. Well what 1020 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 2: does that say? So they don't stop every run, but 1021 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: when they do, the stops are very impactful. Now you 1022 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 2: would assume they're built to prevent explosives with that, but 1023 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,759 Speaker 2: you know, not to win every three yard run. Now, 1024 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 2: Phillies rush defense this year allowed eleven point five percent 1025 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 2: explosive run rates twenty first in the NFL. And then 1026 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 2: you look at your stuff rate, which you know right 1027 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage twenty eighth. So basically, Chicago 1028 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,799 Speaker 2: is forty six point one percent run plus this year. 1029 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 2: So basically, run the ball with forty six percent ninth 1030 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 2: in the NFL. What I would say is just keep 1031 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 2: it up, keep going, keep doing your thing. I think 1032 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 2: they're gonna be able to run the ball in this one. 1033 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 2: Uh and again, given the win, give the weather, cold game, 1034 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 2: I think Chicago has an advantage. So I'm completely with you, 1035 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,720 Speaker 2: and I think you know, Manungui touchdowns, swift some yards. 1036 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 2: I feel like Chicago has an advantage, and I think 1037 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 2: Ben Johnson's smart enough to use it. 1038 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it should be a good one. We 1039 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,240 Speaker 5: got a lot of fun games over the holiday. 1040 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 3: I'll tell you bet this stuff is looking good and 1041 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,399 Speaker 3: smelling good and tasting good. 1042 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 4: We got to dig in and start eating now. 1043 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 3: It is good. 1044 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 2: But you got a hurry because it's hitting close to 1045 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 2: game time and we just like to say happy Thanksgiving 1046 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,399 Speaker 2: to you guys back in the studio. All right, it 1047 00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 2: is sides and leftover time, so We're gonna get through 1048 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 2: these quickly. Now we're moving to Sunday, Monday, things of 1049 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 2: that nature, so we will get to all the games 1050 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 2: here as quickly as possible. Steelers and Bill's what are 1051 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 2: you doing in this one? 1052 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1053 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 5: I think it's a Steelers spot, Steelers plus four and 1054 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 5: a half, and I'm gonna play Steelers on the money 1055 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 5: line as well. Look, Bill's are on extra arrest after 1056 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 5: that loss to the Texans. Rogers, looks like he's probably 1057 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 5: gonna play it, but ailing it feels like the Bill's 1058 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 5: bounced back spot. But I think it is a raw, 1059 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 5: raw Tomlin spot. Actually, here we know the numbers from 1060 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 5: week five forward, fifty five and two ats as an 1061 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,399 Speaker 5: underdog sixty eight percent cover. Right, That trend is usually 1062 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 5: better at home check after a loss, check as a 1063 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 5: touchdown underdog, or last check. To me, this line is 1064 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 5: just way off. I praise this pretty close to a 1065 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 5: coin flip for Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, and part of that 1066 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 5: is talk about the road Buffalo Bills so far this 1067 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 5: season on the road, the Bills won comfortably against Hoay, 1068 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 5: the Jets, and the Panthers. They lost in games we 1069 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 5: remember ugly to Atlanta to Miami to Houston, all on 1070 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 5: the road. Since the start of twenty twenty three, the 1071 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 5: Bills are now eleven and twelve straight up on the road. 1072 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 5: They are a losing record for this team that is 1073 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 5: a presumed juggernaut. And here are the eleven wins against quarterbacks. 1074 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes Okay, that one counts, Jared Goff, Aaron Rodgers 1075 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,720 Speaker 5: all right, Tuah twice, Gino Smith, Joe Flacco, Justin Field's 1076 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 5: Andy Dalton, Sam Howell, and Easton Stick. That's the quarterbacks. 1077 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 5: This team is beating on the road and the numbers 1078 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 5: match it. This year number one offense at home, basically 1079 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 5: league average on the road by DVA. So again, you 1080 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 5: had another blustery looking game, probably some precipitation as well. 1081 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 5: Emphasis run game that should be good for Buffalo, but 1082 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 5: they're better running inside. Pittsburgh's defense is better defending inside 1083 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 5: and on the other side of the ball, we know 1084 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 5: the Giants are the worst run defense in the league. Well, 1085 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 5: the Bills are the only team that's even close to 1086 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 5: the Giants that bad. Their thirty first DVA against the run, 1087 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 5: thirtieth and EPA per play, and Pittsburgh is suddenly top 1088 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 5: ten rushing by EPA per play. Our guy Kenny Gainwell 1089 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 5: scored those touchdowns for us and suddenly looks like a 1090 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 5: real weapon. Like they got two guys attacking now and 1091 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 5: bills top five and pressure rate and they force a 1092 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:46,240 Speaker 5: lot of short passes. Wat's good against a lot of teams, 1093 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 5: but Aaron Rodgers is key here. He just doesn't get 1094 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,840 Speaker 5: pressured because he gets the ball out so fast. And 1095 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 5: the Steelers throw short more than anyone in the league, 1096 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,439 Speaker 5: over three fourth to their passes, and they're pretty good 1097 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,480 Speaker 5: at it. So I think it sort of plays right 1098 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 5: into what the Steelers want to do anyway. The Steelers 1099 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 5: also play the least eleven personnel in the league. That's 1100 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 5: where Buffalo is defended best. Buffalo is bottom five EPA 1101 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 5: per play against twelve personnel and twenty one, which is 1102 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 5: where the Steelers play way more than most teams. So 1103 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 5: I think the matchup really favors the Steelers here. If 1104 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 5: we go run heavy, that should shorten the game and 1105 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 5: keep things close. This looks under to me. Alan and 1106 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,800 Speaker 5: McDermott wrote unders usually a thing as well. A couple 1107 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 5: more trends to wrap this one up Steelers after they 1108 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 5: allow more than twenty eight points forty one seventeen and 1109 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 5: two ats seventy one percent the last couple decades, and 1110 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 5: then one more. Tomlin stat as a home dog of 1111 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:43,799 Speaker 5: seven or lass from week five forward nineteen five and 1112 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:47,280 Speaker 5: one seventy nine percent cover eight by over a touchdown 1113 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 5: a game, Steelers spot all the way, Steelers plus four 1114 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 5: and a half and I'll touch the money line at 1115 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 5: plus one seventy five, and you. 1116 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 2: Definitely have Mike Tomlin's attention. Pittsburgh's been losing. Pittsburgh has 1117 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 2: really struggled with Buffalo lately, four straight up ats, last five. 1118 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 2: They've well sixty nine to twenty their last two games 1119 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 2: versus Buffalo, and this will be their fifth straight game 1120 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: as an underdog versus Buffalo, all of them in Buffalo, 1121 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,400 Speaker 2: this one in Pittsburgh definitely have Tomlin's attention, so his 1122 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 2: team will be as ready as possible for this one. 1123 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 2: All right, let's keep going here, Jets. Falcons can't believe 1124 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 2: it's number two in the rundown, but here we go. 1125 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:23,879 Speaker 2: What are you doing? 1126 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1127 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:26,720 Speaker 5: I told you Sunday is not going to be pretty, 1128 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 5: and we are apparently backing the Jets a second straight week. 1129 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 4: Give me the Jets plus two and a half. 1130 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 5: Look, I prefer to wait for a three, so we 1131 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 5: might get that you may want to wait and see 1132 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 5: if the three pops. But I'll take the two and 1133 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:43,280 Speaker 5: a half here again, broken broken record here, But another 1134 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 5: windy game, another run heavy, low scoring game, total below forty. 1135 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 5: So the Jets have a huge special teams advantage here. 1136 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 5: They're number one by DVOA. The Falcons are bottom five. 1137 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 5: That matter is even more in windy conditions and where 1138 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 5: every point's gonna matter, So I think that is worth mentioning. 1139 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 5: And then just the way the matchup goes here, Jets 1140 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 5: run defense is really their one strength as a unit. Well, 1141 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,479 Speaker 5: that's the perfect matchup against the Falcons, and they're also 1142 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 5: better defending outside runs, where the Falcons run more than 1143 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 5: any team in the league. So I think that's kind 1144 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 5: of a push in that direction. And meanwhile, I think 1145 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 5: the Falcons defense is probably the best unit on the field, 1146 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 5: but that's mostly against the pass. Their bottom quarter of 1147 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 5: the league against the run. And that's what the Jets 1148 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 5: want to do is run, run, run the ball all game. 1149 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 5: And I think two even when they don't run, the 1150 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 5: switch to Tyrod Taylor is helpful here because the Falcons 1151 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:36,319 Speaker 5: have gotten huge pressure, and I trust Tyrod to get 1152 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,320 Speaker 5: the ball out a little easier than I would have 1153 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:42,760 Speaker 5: trusted justin field. So I think Jets' biggest strengths running, 1154 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 5: stopping the run in special teams perfect for this matchup 1155 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,280 Speaker 5: in the weather. Tyrod as an underdog sixty six percent 1156 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 5: ats in his career and then since twenty eighteen, when 1157 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 5: the totals below forty two, you want underdogs of four 1158 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:59,080 Speaker 5: or less fifty six percent against the spread. We said 1159 00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 5: it last week. The Jets are keeping these games close. 1160 00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 5: Even against the Ravens it was a one score game 1161 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. That's now nine of eleven games 1162 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 5: the Jets have been within one score. I think they're 1163 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 5: the right side here. Again, I would actually make the 1164 00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 5: Jets favorites in this game. So I'll play Jets plus 1165 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,400 Speaker 5: two and a half and I'll go one step further, 1166 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 5: not even just the money line, maybe I'm going like 1167 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 5: three steps further. So I noticed a while back, if 1168 00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 5: you have a team that is under a three point 1169 00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 5: home underdog and you like them to win outright, we've 1170 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 5: seen them in the last decade one hundred and thirty 1171 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 5: four times where the team won eighty two of those times, 1172 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 5: so sixty one percent. That team won by at least 1173 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 5: a full touchdown seven or more points. Six of the 1174 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 5: seven Jets wins since it started last year by seven 1175 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 5: or more points. So I'm gonna skip the money line 1176 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 5: and go more aggressive. Jets alt minus six and a 1177 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 5: half plus two eighty eight. This game is terrible, like 1178 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 5: you said, But if we're gonna pay attention to these 1179 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 5: games on Sunday, why can't the Jets beat up on 1180 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 5: Kirk Cousins and whatever the left of the Falcons and 1181 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 5: send them to the grave. Jets plus two and a 1182 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 5: half and Jets alt by seven or more. 1183 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:07,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we hope no, Drake London if you're 1184 00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 2: looking at the Jets here, but we'll see as we 1185 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 2: get closer to the weekend. You mentioned Tyrod Taylor loves 1186 00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,799 Speaker 2: covering the spread. He really does. Six zero to one 1187 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 2: ats last seven, and this is his specialty. When his 1188 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 2: team is under five hundred. He's sixteen and five against 1189 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 2: the spread, eleven and two as an underdog. So Tyrod, 1190 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 2: here we go. Also, Jets four and two ats last six. 1191 00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 2: They've been in basically every game all year except for 1192 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 2: two and the Falcons outdoors eleven and twenty since twenty 1193 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 2: twenty loss six straight. So not fantastic there. All right, 1194 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 2: let's keep going here. AFC South battle Texans Colts. This 1195 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 2: is an interesting one. Texans with a little bit of rest, 1196 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 2: Colts off of a pretty terrible loss. How you doing? 1197 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 2: How you dealing with it? 1198 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1199 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 5: I wanted to figure out a way to invest in 1200 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 5: the Colts here, but I'm gonna get creative. So yeah, 1201 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 5: it's a pretty big game on Sunday. The Colts are 1202 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 5: suddenly only up one on Jacksonville, two on Houston. Texans 1203 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,919 Speaker 5: are riding high. They get the extra rest. It looks 1204 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 5: like CG. Stroud is finally back. This rivalry has been 1205 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 5: really close games lately. Texans have only won one of 1206 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 5: the last six, but all but one of those are 1207 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 5: within four points, so probably this is close and late. 1208 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 5: I'm not saying it's gonna be super sexy and exciting 1209 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 5: to watch, but we'll probably be seeing it late in 1210 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,680 Speaker 5: the witching hour. I like how the Colts defense matches 1211 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 5: up in this one number two EPA per play versus 1212 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 5: eleven personnel. Houston runs a pretty vanilla offense, so they 1213 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 5: run a lot of eleven. Colts are better on single high, 1214 00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 5: they're better on insider runs, best in the league. Actually, 1215 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,960 Speaker 5: against that, they kind of match Houston's tendencies, and frankly, 1216 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,040 Speaker 5: Houston tendencies are kind of easy to match. 1217 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 4: So on the flip. 1218 00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 5: Side, I don't really want to invest too much in 1219 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 5: Daniel Jones against this Houston defense. We just saw what 1220 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 5: they did to Josh Allen. Why would I want Daniel Jones. Well, 1221 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 5: if I do want Colts, I'm gonna like them better early. 1222 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna play Colts first quarter minus half a point. 1223 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 5: So they actually aft to win the first quarter. 1224 00:58:59,120 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 4: I can't. 1225 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 5: I'm gonna lose tie. It's plus one fourteen. Here's the reason, 1226 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 5: Stich in scripted offense, I can trust Daniel Jones for 1227 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 5: a couple drives? Can I trust the scripted stuff when 1228 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,440 Speaker 5: they know what's coming and get ready? And so far 1229 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 5: this year, Colts defense is actually top five in the 1230 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 5: first quarter by DVA in Houston is bottom ten. Then 1231 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 5: it flips after that for both of those and it 1232 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 5: goes back the other way. But to me, that's coaching 1233 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 5: in preparation for the Colts. It also means in this 1234 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 5: particular matchup. Two things. Number one, we get some CJ. 1235 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 5: Stroud rust early in the first quarter, we get to 1236 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 5: play that angle. And number two, the Colts defense just 1237 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 5: was on the field for ninety one plays against the Chiefs. 1238 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 5: No thank you to having anything to do with the 1239 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 5: Colts in the second half in case that comes back 1240 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 5: to haunt them. Let's get our money in the first 1241 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 5: quarter and get out of there. Colts eight and three 1242 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 5: ats in the first quarter, second to best mark in 1243 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 5: the league Texans one in three first quarter as underdogs. 1244 00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 5: So I will play Colts first quarter again. It's minus 1245 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 5: a half plus one fourteen. If you want, you'll play 1246 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 5: the money line that's minus one forty eight. Now you 1247 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 5: will get your money back in a tie. I am 1248 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 5: risking losing the tie because that's a pretty hefty margin 1249 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 5: in our favor that we actually have to win the quarter. 1250 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 5: But I'll take the plus one to fourteen and play 1251 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 5: the more aggressive line. 1252 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like badgely too. I think you have opportunities 1253 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 2: to take the lead. Seven point two points per game 1254 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 2: in the first quarter for indy type for thirsty, third 1255 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:30,440 Speaker 2: best in the NFL. And this one's good question is 1256 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 2: who leads the NFL in passing yards in the first 1257 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 2: quarter Indiana Jones. So good one there, scripted offense, Indy 1258 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 2: seems to be doing well, all right, two more here? 1259 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 2: What are you doing with New Orleans and Miami? Because 1260 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 2: I was hoping not to touch this game, but you 1261 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 2: just bring me to the You just continue to bring 1262 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:51,640 Speaker 2: me to the upside down, and I just I just 1263 01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 2: continue to ask what we're doing. 1264 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 5: We're gonna play the Dolphins. We're gonna play the first 1265 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 5: half line here, So one more time, another windy looking 1266 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:03,000 Speaker 5: game on Sunday. The Saints are really lacking weapons. It 1267 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 5: looks like Kamara is out and we got like Taysom 1268 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,200 Speaker 5: Hill is running apparently now the football at running back 1269 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,080 Speaker 5: for them. Remember last week when we made Tyler Shock 1270 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,280 Speaker 5: a favorite, we made the Raiders a favorite too, like 1271 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 5: that that was really fun. This line feels more right 1272 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 5: to me. Miami is home off the bye week. There, 1273 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 5: I have them as more than a touchdown favor. But 1274 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 5: I'm gonna play first half. Miami's defense has been better 1275 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 5: of late, top quarter of the league in dvaa number 1276 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 5: one against the run last six weeks. So it's up 1277 01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 5: to Shock passing and I think both defenses are probably 1278 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:38,439 Speaker 5: the better unit here in the matchup, so I would 1279 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 5: lean low. That doesn't make me love Miami laying the 1280 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 5: six here. The Dolphins defensively this year have been weak 1281 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 5: at short passing, defensive and also giving up a lot 1282 01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 5: of explosives. Well, the Saints are dead last in both 1283 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 5: of those areas, so that's not an area that they 1284 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 5: are really able to hurt them. 1285 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 4: This is another spot too. 1286 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 5: In any NFC South game, you're probably going to have 1287 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 5: a huge special team advantage for the other side. Miami 1288 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 5: is top five, Saints bottom two, so again with the 1289 01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 5: windy conditions, that part matters to Saints defense twenty fifth 1290 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,480 Speaker 5: on the road versus league average at home, so that's 1291 01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,840 Speaker 5: a bad spot for them here. And then they're also 1292 01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 5: as we know, Saints have been really bad early in 1293 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 5: games in the first half. They're bottom ten offensively versus 1294 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 5: top ten in the second half or sorry defensively, and 1295 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:29,000 Speaker 5: in Miami has been much better offensively fourteenth by DVA 1296 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 5: in the first half, bottom five in the second half. 1297 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 5: So this is just kind of this is win you 1298 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:36,600 Speaker 5: back to and McDaniel is as the front runner as 1299 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,440 Speaker 5: the favorite against a bad team and the Saints. You've 1300 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 5: said this set a bunch of times this year. They're 1301 01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 5: now one in ten ATS in the first quarter. If 1302 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,920 Speaker 5: you want just the first quarter, I can't really blame you. 1303 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 5: I'm gonna give Miami the whole half to be a 1304 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,360 Speaker 5: better team. Saints are three to eight ATS in the 1305 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 5: first half. They're seven to four second half, So I'm 1306 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:56,720 Speaker 5: gonna get out and avoid that part. But a trend 1307 01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,120 Speaker 5: that pushed me toward the half instead of the quarter. 1308 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 5: Home fats of seven or less after a buye a 1309 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 5: week in just the first half eighty six sixty six 1310 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 5: and twenty two ats fifty seven percent cover rate, So 1311 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,919 Speaker 5: good spot to look at the home favorite first half 1312 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 5: coming out of the bye week in Miami minus two 1313 01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 5: and a half in the first half line. You get 1314 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 5: below the key number that way as well, So again 1315 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:21,320 Speaker 5: you can play the money line if for prefer Look 1316 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 5: if you're playing like a minus one sixty juice because 1317 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 5: you're afraid of it. To me, that's the sign you 1318 01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:28,600 Speaker 5: just skip the play. I'm gonna take the more aggressive line. 1319 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 5: I'm gonna hope that the Finns lead by at least 1320 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:33,680 Speaker 5: a field goal, and then we'll just not even have 1321 01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 5: to pay attention in the second half of these games. 1322 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:37,560 Speaker 5: Like you said, we don't want to watch this one anyways. 1323 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 5: Let's just get our money and get home. 1324 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the goal to in McDaniels. Seventeen and ten 1325 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 2: first at ats at home. They are above five hundred 1326 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 2: first fats in all six months of the season. Two 1327 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: no matter what it is, they seem to perform fifteen 1328 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 2: and six first have ahts on normal rest or more 1329 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 2: at home, so it seems like a good spot overall. All. Right, 1330 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 2: last prop here, this one is you know, you know 1331 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:02,600 Speaker 2: you're not just taking the best player ever, you're taking 1332 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 2: the best player ever this season. So what are you 1333 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 2: doing with them? 1334 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I gotta get a Jackson Smith and Jig mc 1335 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:10,080 Speaker 5: pop in here. So I just want to play receiving 1336 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 5: yards escalator and they aren't even lines yet. I'm just 1337 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 5: gonna prep you to play it once they post. So 1338 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 5: it's kind of a messy game. JJ McCarthy is supposedly 1339 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 5: in concussion protocol now, which you know, shocker that McCarthy 1340 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,240 Speaker 5: just happens to be injured again right before all on 1341 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:26,440 Speaker 5: the road in Seattle. Looks like it's Max Brosemer season, 1342 01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 5: So good luck to the undrafted guy, throwing him to 1343 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 5: the Wolves against this nasty defense. So on the other side, 1344 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 5: of course, it's Sam Darnald. So it's a reminder to 1345 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 5: the Vikings of just what they gave up. But I 1346 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 5: don't really know we're gonna get with Donald. Does Brian 1347 01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 5: Floores know Donald Tennesse's gonna throw them off kilter? Or 1348 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:47,040 Speaker 5: On the other hand, the matchup here is why Lean 1349 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 5: and a JSN the Vikings bottom five DVA against wide 1350 01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 5: receiver one, bottom five against deep passes, dead last EPA 1351 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 5: for a play on deep passes. They don't allow a 1352 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,920 Speaker 5: lot of them by volume, but Seattle's gonna test that 1353 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 5: because Seattle all year has been elite elite plus on 1354 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 5: deep passes, top three EPA per play and top three 1355 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,680 Speaker 5: by volume. So they go there early and often. And 1356 01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 5: by god, that is jsm's music. He's already broken Seattle's 1357 01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 5: franchise record in week twelve. He's on pace for the 1358 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 5: all time record. You know that he has ninety three 1359 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,320 Speaker 5: yards or more all but one game this season, and 1360 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 5: in that quote, bad game was seventy nine yards. It's 1361 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 5: a hack of a season. One hundred yards are more 1362 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 5: in eight of eleven. Last week the line was ninety 1363 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 5: six and a half. So whatever we're gonna get, I'm 1364 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 5: looking basically at one hundred yards and then maybe some alts, 1365 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:39,920 Speaker 5: maybe like one hundred and one hundred and fifty. But JSN, 1366 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:42,000 Speaker 5: I think this is in line to have a big 1367 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 5: game and to have Vikings fans crying to their pillows 1368 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 5: about missing Sam Darnald on Sunday. 1369 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 2: I mean, my only worry in this at all is 1370 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 2: and you've seen the stat probably floating around as well, 1371 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 2: like Donald has under three hundred passes, had some eleven games, 1372 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 2: So just the ability to get Jaysn the ball in 1373 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,960 Speaker 2: like a volume state double digit favorite for Seattle. So 1374 01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:06,120 Speaker 2: Seattle's been favored by six plus three times this year. 1375 01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:10,000 Speaker 2: Here's jsn's numbers obviously last week eight for one, sixty 1376 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 2: seven and two, but then he did five and ninety 1377 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:14,840 Speaker 2: three in a touchdown and five and ninety six and 1378 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 2: a touchdown against Arizona and New Orleans, so still there, 1379 01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:22,000 Speaker 2: but only five catches because you know Seattle's up in 1380 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:24,160 Speaker 2: the game. So I think to me that is literally 1381 01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 2: the only worry. Five games with fewer than ten targets 1382 01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:31,680 Speaker 2: for JSN this year Darnald's pass attempts twenty two point 1383 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 2: eight in those five games, So literally that is it, Like, 1384 01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 2: is there enough volume in the game to get Jasn 1385 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 2: wherever you want? Because he's getting all the target share. 1386 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 2: We will have to see if the brosmer can keep 1387 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: them in it for just a little bit, just a 1388 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:48,840 Speaker 2: tiny bit. All right, We've done the main course, the 1389 01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:51,920 Speaker 2: entree was good. We've had the sides. Take me to dessert. 1390 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I guess said, no look ahead this week, 1391 01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:57,000 Speaker 5: no lines yet? So how about a little future is 1392 01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 5: long shot, a little tasty morsel to wrap up? So 1393 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 5: every week I always go through like Monday Tuesday. Okay, 1394 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 5: what are all the futures out there? Let's look at 1395 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:07,480 Speaker 5: the divisions, look at the menus, let's take down the awards. 1396 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:11,360 Speaker 5: So looking at the divisions right now, Colts Box, Broncos 1397 01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 5: all offer a slight amount of value. But those are 1398 01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 5: all three teams that you're betting like a big minus number, 1399 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 5: and I don't really love the spot for any of 1400 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 5: those three. 1401 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:20,000 Speaker 4: This week. 1402 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:23,040 Speaker 5: I think there's some value on the Bills at five 1403 01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 5: to one, but again, I can't be betting that we're 1404 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,080 Speaker 5: on Steelers to possibly beat the Bills this week. So 1405 01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:30,800 Speaker 5: I found two spots that I do see clear value. 1406 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 5: One should be pretty obvious. That would be the Lions 1407 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 5: plus one seventy thirty seven percent implied versus forty three 1408 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 5: percent at FTN. And it's a big swing here. This 1409 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:42,760 Speaker 5: is the Thanksgiving play. You beat the Packers. That's a 1410 01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:45,160 Speaker 5: plus one and a minus one for green Bay, and 1411 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 5: then Chicago touchdown underdogs in Philly and then at green 1412 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 5: Bay next week. So Lions beat the Packers here and 1413 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 5: then hopefully if you have the Lions ticket Bears and 1414 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 5: Packers lose, and then they play each other next week, 1415 01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 5: so one of them loses another game right away. So 1416 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 5: I think it's a good spot for Detroit. They play 1417 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 5: in Chicago week eighteen, who they beat by thirty one 1418 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 5: last time, so probably you get at least a shot 1419 01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:11,160 Speaker 5: at this one in the final game. The other part 1420 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 5: I'm going to parlay two of these together is I'm 1421 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,639 Speaker 5: gonna do Steelers plus three sixty. And I know it's 1422 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 5: not gonna feel comfortable because of all the Ravens stuff, 1423 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,839 Speaker 5: but again, if you like the Steelers against the Bills, 1424 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 5: they get the Dolphins and the Browns. We'll see about 1425 01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 5: a game in Detroit, but the other two games are 1426 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:32,960 Speaker 5: against the Ravens, including Week eighteen in Pittsburgh. That screams 1427 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 5: last game of the year Sunday night. I think we're 1428 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 5: getting that Pittsburgh and Baltimore, and again gives you a 1429 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 5: shot in Week eighteen. The Ravens have not been that great. 1430 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:44,160 Speaker 5: We talked about that Burrow twice. They get in the 1431 01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 5: next few weeks. It's a rough stretch for them, where 1432 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 5: other teams like the Steelers got to avoid that earlier 1433 01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 5: this season. The Ravens still play the Patriots, they play 1434 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 5: the Packers. They can lose some games. It's plus three 1435 01:08:55,880 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 5: to sixty for Pittsburgh implied twenty two percent. Pen has 1436 01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 5: it thirty one percent, and if they win this week 1437 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 5: the Steelers and against the Bills, they could even be 1438 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:08,519 Speaker 5: like closer to fifty percent again by the end of 1439 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,959 Speaker 5: this week already. So this is a Thanksgiving Feast division 1440 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:16,880 Speaker 5: parlay Lions and Steelers both together plus thirteen twenty four 1441 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 5: that's about seven percent implied. I have it more like 1442 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 5: thirteen percent, so about double that, and I think it 1443 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,599 Speaker 5: might even get up to like twenty five percent if 1444 01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 5: we're right about our Thanksgiving angles. On these games, So 1445 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 5: thirteen to one Ish Lions and Steelers. And if you 1446 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 5: want the really really long number, a little like whipped 1447 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 5: cream on your on your pumpkin pie, you can add 1448 01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 5: in Colts, Broncos, Bucks. Those are all the big favorites, 1449 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:43,679 Speaker 5: and you get just over thirty to one at plus 1450 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,800 Speaker 5: thirty seventy seven and go with the big division parlay here, 1451 01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 5: but Lines Steelers, that's your dessert. Let's have some leftovers 1452 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:51,480 Speaker 5: and enjoy Thanksgiving. 1453 01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:54,960 Speaker 2: Here's the question, Colts, Broncos, Bucks, which one would you 1454 01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 2: kick out? 1455 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:56,840 Speaker 4: Which one would I kick out? 1456 01:09:57,080 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 5: I mean, as much as I have as much smack 1457 01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:03,640 Speaker 5: as I've talked on them, I think it has to 1458 01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 5: be the Broncos. I just can't feel good about the Broncos. 1459 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 5: I feel fine with the Box because I'm just betting 1460 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:11,920 Speaker 5: against the Panthers. I feel sure, mostly okay about the 1461 01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,640 Speaker 5: Colts because the Texans have a brutal schedule and I 1462 01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 5: don't believe in the Jaguars. Denver is still got Kansas 1463 01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 5: City Common, so I feel like Denver is who I 1464 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:21,640 Speaker 5: would kick out if I had to boot one. And 1465 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 5: I believe you're still like twenty five to one if 1466 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 5: you do that. 1467 01:10:24,280 --> 01:10:26,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a close one. I really, I mean if 1468 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:28,400 Speaker 2: Carolina even would have stayed close last night. I want 1469 01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:29,680 Speaker 2: to kick out the Bucks, but I don't know if 1470 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 2: I can. All Right, that'll do it.
