I like to make money. 10 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 5: All right. 11 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 2: This is the ultimate kabah and we are underway. 12 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 5: What's up, everybody, and welcome to the Action Network Podcast 13 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 5: presented by Fan Duel. 14 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 4: I am your host, Chris Raybond. 15 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 5: This is your week seventeen NFL betting preview where we 16 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 5: talk about our favorite totals, teasers, underdogs, and crack open 17 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 5: our weekly Sunday six pack of against the spread bets 18 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 5: with the help of my co host, the Prime Minister 19 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 5: of Degenerate Nation, Stucky Duck. 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 4: What's going on? How's your holidays? 21 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: They were good. Was here in Kentucky because it was 22 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: the weekend and I, you know, had work with games, 23 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 2: and wife had work and with a bar, and so 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 2: I didn't travel luckily. Hearing all the horror stories about traveling, luckily, 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: I wasn't one of them. There's another winning weekend the NFL, 26 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 2: which was good. Who cares? We're on the the next week. 27 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 2: I was probably not lucky with the Cowboys. And then 28 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: the Patriots games made me so angry because the week 29 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: before I was on the I faded the Bengals, No 30 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 2: showed in the second half and after being you know, 31 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 2: down what twenty one or seventeen to nothing? Then this, 32 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: this is a complete opposite. And then the Patriots missed 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: two extra points, miss a two point conversion and fumble 34 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: inside the ten and lose by the hook. That one 35 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: was annoying, but not sure I deserved it. But overall, 36 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: winning weekend not as good as you. I think he 37 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: swept again. I think that's a. 38 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 4: Record for the Pack. 39 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, which is all I care about. Another great 40 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 2: week for the pos. Let's keep it rolling into week seventeen. 41 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's do it. 42 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 5: And we're gonna start with the Thursday Night Football, so eight, 43 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 5: so let's jump right into it. 44 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: It's not the best game, but it's the only game tonight. 45 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: Let's bet Thursday night football. 46 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 5: So we have the Dallas Cowboys going to Tennessee to 47 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 5: take on the Titans. The line is eleven, the total 48 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 5: is forty. In the line is in favor of the Cowboys. Obviously, 49 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 5: the big thing to know here is the Titans essentially 50 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 5: have to beat the Jaguars in Week eighteen to win 51 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 5: the AFC South, so they essentially could treat this game 52 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 5: like a preseason game. You might see them rest people here, 53 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 5: and that's why this line. 54 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: Is starting to balloon. 55 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 5: So you're you know, by the time you're listen to this, 56 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 5: we might have more clarity. But as of now, it 57 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 5: looks like it's a good possibility that the Titans kind 58 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 5: of treat take this game lightly and gear up for 59 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 5: Week eighteen. 60 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 4: So with that in mind, how do you kind of 61 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 4: approach this game? 62 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 2: It's not there is actually one path where the Titans 63 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: could get a wild card, but it would involve them 64 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 2: winning this week and then them tying next week. Obviously 65 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: a lot of other things would have to happen, but 66 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: there is like a paf a percent chance that we 67 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: could have the situation a Week eight team where the 68 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: Jags and Titans, if they tie, they both get in. 69 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: But it's so far beyond their own possibilities, and you're 70 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 2: playing a superior opponent that and you're dealing with a 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: ton of injuries on a short week. So the Titans 72 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 2: are just all in on next week's game, which will 73 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: decide the division. The Jaguars, who will get to They 74 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: have a slightly better chance in a while CD. I 75 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: think around eight to ten percent, so you might see 76 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: them try a little more. But we do have more 77 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: clarity on who the Titans will and won't play. Daniko 78 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: Autry doubtful. Just got just the century report just came out. 79 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: Dyn't call their linebacker Zach Cunningham Bud Dupree all out, 80 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: Christian Fulton doubtful, Derrick Henry doubtful, Amani Hooker out, Petite 81 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: Ferrer out, Tannehill out, Jeffrey Simmons out like it. They 82 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 2: are resting what ten starters. Yeah, they don't need this game, 83 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: and the Cowboys could still win the division. The Cowboys 84 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: have int sent them to win. The Cowboys secondary is 85 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: a mess right now, but that's not something Malik Willis 86 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 2: is going to take advantage of, especially with a beat 87 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: up off its line against his pass rush. Malik Willis 88 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 2: negative point four to two EPA per play. That's one 89 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty second out of one hundred and sixty 90 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 2: two quarterbacks with at least one hundred snaps since twenty ten, 91 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 2: So yes, from an EPA perspective, he's been the worst 92 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: quarterback in the NFL that includes Zach Wilson. The second 93 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 2: worst actually over that time is Nathan Peterman at negative 94 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 2: point three to five to nine. To actually take advantage 95 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: of a tech beat up Tennessee secondary and pass defense 96 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 2: that is just reeling, Dak's usually good in these spots 97 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: against inferior opponents. I don't know if I could lay 98 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: eleven Titans, by the way, just on a complete downfall. 99 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: I think they haven't covered five in a row. Good 100 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: money line parlay piece in my opinion, I used the 101 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: pair at the package, which we talk about later. What 102 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: don't even mind me under I mean the Titans, this 103 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: is just like an exhibition game for them, So yeah, 104 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: it means nothing. This is just stay healthy, rest everyone, 105 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: and get ready for jack to trip to Jacksonville, which 106 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 2: will decide the division next week. And the good news 107 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: is if the Titans do indeed just you know, lose 108 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: this game, as they're expected to do, their win total 109 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 2: undercashes for me, which I thought a chance about six 110 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 2: or seven weeks ago. So yeah, it's I don't know. 111 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: I can't like twelve now, but I think the Cowboys 112 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: are a good money one parla piece, which means, by 113 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: the way my moneyline parlays, the last three weeks that 114 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 2: I've used these big money on parlays, they've all like 115 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: either gone to overtime or come down to the wire. 116 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: And maybe the Titans are the play. But yeah, this 117 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: game's a mess. 118 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, the under actually, I mean, because it keeps getting 119 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 5: lower and lower, and you know you've kind of read 120 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 5: out that injury report and there are a bunch of 121 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 5: defensive players on that report as well, and so I 122 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 5: kind of worry about that just because we've seen the 123 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 5: Cowboys put up some big numbers, especially in kind of 124 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 5: in spots where the other team is not really you know, 125 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 5: going you know, full in, Like I think it was 126 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 5: the Eagles they put up like fifty something. I remember 127 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 5: them putting up fifty something on Washington. 128 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 4: Wait in the year. 129 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you know, the under actually could get dicey, 130 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 5: especially if you get you know, a turnover too from 131 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 5: a week willis you know, deep in his own territory 132 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 5: and you don't have Derreck Henry here to move the sticks. 133 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 5: I mean, the Titans could just be backed up and 134 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 5: you know, punting from their five years, I mean, I 135 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 5: know the punter is pretty decent, but uh, yeah, the 136 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 5: under actually scares me just because it keeps under the 137 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 5: key number of forty one. Now, from a trend's perspective, 138 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 5: if Tennessee does indeed fail to cover the number, this 139 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 5: would only be the ninth time in thirty one games 140 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 5: that Mike Rabel a Mike Vrabel coach team would have 141 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 5: failed to cover a spread of an underdog by field 142 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 5: goal or morse. 143 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 2: But like, Tennessee doesn't care, So it's not like you 144 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: have a motivated Tennessee team. This is uh, this is 145 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: an ugly. 146 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 5: Game and what and you know, we'd like to talk 147 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 5: about these trends. You know, even if they're sixty seventy percent, 148 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 5: there's still you know, thirty forty percent. 149 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 4: Of the time where they lose. 150 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 5: And this is the kind of game that they probably 151 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 5: lose because you can't really it's hard to filter for 152 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 5: lack of motivation, you know. And you know, as good 153 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 5: as bet Labs is, there's no real trend for that. 154 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 5: Just kind of you have to kind of know, uh 155 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 5: and kind of single these these instances out. 156 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 4: So yeah, stay away from me as well. 157 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 5: But I agree, I think you could get some Cowboys 158 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 5: money line going here. 159 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,119 Speaker 4: Partly with something else. 160 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 5: All right, let's jump into the week seventy Sunday six pack. 161 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: Thursday for Action. Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. 162 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 4: All right, it's now sixty six forty eight, so jesus, 163 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 4: I can't sleep in the I can sweep in the three. 164 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 4: I don't know, definitely got to be around. 165 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 2: I'm in here, like sixty percent in the NFL this year. 166 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: I've had two losing weeks. I have like I'm crushing 167 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: it and I'm getting because you're just on another level. 168 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 4: And you know I was. 169 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 5: I was checking my my Action Network app recap, you know, 170 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 5: do a great recap of your top year, and apparently 171 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 5: my top team I guess I want you guess who's 172 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 5: my Who do you think my top team of twenty 173 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 5: twenty two was? Units wise the Panthers, I would have 174 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 5: thought that might have been two, the San Francisco forty 175 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 5: nine ers. I think it's because it was like betting 176 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 5: them every week in the playoffs and then against you know, 177 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 5: betting them against the Rams twice fifth year. So I 178 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: think I think I just went like five and oh 179 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 5: or six and o or something. I had like buck 180 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 5: seven and a half units on the Niners. But that 181 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 5: kind of surprised me too. 182 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, mine was. I'm still even after last week, still 183 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: the Bengals, and that I've got every playoff game, super Bowl, 184 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: and then a bunch earlier in the season and they're 185 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: twenty and three. Yeah again the past twenty three games. 186 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 5: You should just bet the Bengals as favors every week, 187 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 5: just like fuck it, Like they should cover every fucking 188 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 5: week somehow, I mean not somehow, they're they are a 189 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 5: good team, but yeah, they do. 190 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 2: They do get some good variants at the end and 191 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 2: at the end of game second half lately. But yeah, 192 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 2: if you coot Joe Burrow and that offense and the 193 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 2: defensive adjustments they make in the second half leads to 194 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: a lot of covers, and especially when Nick Folk misses 195 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: two extra points. Yeah, not better? 196 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 4: All right, So you started stuff, we go. It's your 197 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 4: first pick. 198 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 2: For my first pick of the week seventeen Sunday six pack, 199 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 2: I'm going with the New York Football Jets minus one 200 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: and a half at the Seattle Seahawks. Mike White is back. 201 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 2: That's all that matters here. I don't understand the market 202 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: and how the market is rating the difference between Mike 203 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: White and Zach Wilson. Two weeks in a row, we've 204 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 2: seen Mike White get ruled out and the Jets take 205 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: money late in the week with Zach Wilson starting, I 206 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: take what moved two to three points to the Jets, 207 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: which makes zero sense because Zach Wilson now has a 208 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: lower e LO through twenty his first twenty two starts 209 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 2: than any other quarterback in the history of the NFL. 210 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 2: He is a complete and ut her bust. He is awful. 211 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: He's horrendous. Mike White not only has this locker room, 212 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: but he can run the offense and he can complete passes. 213 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 2: That's what the Jets need. And since Week ten, you know, 214 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 2: after those Cardinals wins, I remember I was making fun 215 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: of Seattle, and Seattle hasn't covered since. By the way, 216 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: Seattle Island lonely plays Seattle's thirty first and EPA per 217 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 2: play on D. They've played the Raiders, Rams, Panthers, forty 218 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 2: nine ers in chiefs, three backup quarterbacks in there, and 219 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 2: their thirty first and EPA per play on D locket. 220 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 2: We don't know how healthy you'll be or if you'll 221 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: even play. I assume we'll play, but he's got to 222 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: beat a pen. I don't know if he can hang 223 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: on the balls. But the Jets can take away the run. 224 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 2: That neutralizes Geno Smith, who's declining and coming back down 225 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 2: to earth with each week. And Jets do get a 226 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 2: few extra days rest here. If they're playing on Thursday. 227 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 2: They're five and two against the spread on the road 228 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: this year. They've had no problem going on the highway. 229 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 2: They are games they didn't cover. Where the Vikings game 230 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 2: where they dominated and got stopp at the goal on 231 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 2: like three times at the end, and then the Pats 232 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: walk off punt return which covered to three and a half. 233 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: That's it, Jets. Both teams need to win keep their 234 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: playoff hopes alive. Motivation will be there for both the Seahawks. 235 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: I don't think the market is adjusted fast enough to 236 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: the Seahawks that people still take like, oh, Gino Smith. 237 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: They haven't covered in six weeks. They're on a downward trend, 238 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 2: and I don't think the market is upgrading the Jets 239 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 2: enough for Mike White, Jets defense will be the best 240 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 2: unit on the field by a wide margin. That's the 241 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: difference here. Jets get it done on the road, give 242 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 2: me Mike White. 243 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 5: I love this just uh, you've just been kind of 244 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 5: following the Mike White money the last couple of weeks. 245 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 5: It's like when he when he starts, you bet the Jets. 246 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 5: When he's not, you fade the Jets. And then that 247 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 5: one time you got to cat with Mike White getting 248 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 5: ruled out, which is ridiculous. Yeah, I have. I don't 249 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 5: have the number quite as high as you, but I 250 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 5: don't mind it. You know, I think you're essentially just 251 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 5: kind of picking which, you know, inside of three, inside 252 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 5: of two even so you're just kind of picking which 253 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 5: team you think is gonna win. 254 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 4: And I would lean Jets as well here. 255 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 5: I think that Sea Huff run defense just wets teams 256 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 5: kind of hang around even if you're not the greatest offense. 257 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 5: That the Jets are a pretty fout offense with White, 258 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 5: but you know, because their run defense is so bad, 259 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 5: they let you get into third and manageable, and so 260 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 5: it kind of negates. So you know, Woulan and some 261 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 5: of those guys, and they're not even great in terms 262 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 5: of defending number one and number two wide receivers even 263 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 5: with those with those corners. So it's I think that 264 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 5: run defense is really starting to hurt them. So the Jets, 265 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 5: their run game has kind of gone missing these past 266 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 5: couple of games. So I think that being able to 267 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 5: recapture that Donovan Knight, you know, Michael Carter is healthier now, 268 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 5: I think that will. 269 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 4: Be key for the Jets offense to not just not 270 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 4: just Mike White. 271 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 2: They went out, the Jets I think will be ninety 272 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 2: to go eighty seven. 273 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 4: Ye yeah, we're now and the Jets are eighty seven 274 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 4: percent chance. 275 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 5: There's only like one scenario I think if Wing Wing 276 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 5: goes undefeated, that would I think that would would knock 277 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 5: the Jumps out. 278 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 2: Yep, all right, see I'm going Jets. Where you going next? Well, 279 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 2: it's gonna. 280 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 5: Be it's gonna be kind of an ugly week. But 281 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 5: for my first pick in the second overall of the week, 282 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 5: seventeen Sunday six pack going with the New Orleans Saints 283 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 5: plus sick on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles, And like, 284 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 5: this number to me is pretty big when you consider 285 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 5: that number one, he was the starting Gardner Minshew. Number two, 286 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 5: the Eagles lost the best offensive lineman or you could 287 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 5: say second best depending on what you think of Kelsey. 288 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 5: But Wayne Johnson. That's big seventh of eighty one tackles. Yeah, 289 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 5: that is what he grades out as. So you're getting 290 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 5: the Eagles, but you're getting the Eagles team that is 291 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 5: still kind of sitting pretty in terms of their playoff position, 292 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 5: a team that now has to be a little more careful, 293 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 5: I think, because now you're finding out that maybe Jalen 294 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 5: Hurts is hurt a little more than we thought he was, 295 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 5: and there's a question of how even effective he can 296 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 5: be if he does come back for the playoffs. So 297 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 5: now it's like you gotta maybe be a little more 298 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 5: careful with Minshew too, and maybe some of these other 299 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 5: guys as well. So I know Philly wants to beat 300 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 5: New Orleans for the draft pick, but this New Orleans 301 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 5: team has been solid on defense. This is just a 302 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 5: too big of a number here when you're talking about 303 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 5: a backup quarterback and your best offensive lineman out against 304 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 5: the New Orleans team that you know their defense has been, 305 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 5: it's traveled well. You know, we just have to hope 306 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 5: that New Orleans can give give us enough points here. 307 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 5: But you're getting six, six and a half at some spots. 308 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 5: I've seen a sevens. I really like this matchup for 309 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 5: New Orleans here. You know, Andy Dalton pretty has been 310 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 5: good against zone coverage all year. 311 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 4: Philly loves to play zone coverage. 312 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 5: And it's another one of these games where you're seeing 313 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 5: a a large spread and a total that's not that high. 314 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 5: You know, the totals forty four, of course, because you 315 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 5: got Gardner Minshew instead of Jalen Hurts and you got 316 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: one of your best off at the linemen in the 317 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: league out. 318 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 4: But yet when you see these totals. 319 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 5: This year, anything more than a field goal with a 320 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 5: total of forty seven or less sixty seven and forty 321 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 5: one against the spread sixty two percent, And that makes 322 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 5: a ton of sense because it's just hard to get 323 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 5: separation cover these numbers and you know, stop the team 324 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 5: from you know, potentially getting a back door, getting it 325 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 5: to with you know, getting it to within three points 326 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 5: wait in the game. 327 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 4: So yeah, give me New Orleans here. I like the 328 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 4: way New Orleans is playing. 329 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 5: I think that they'll be able to exploit this Philly 330 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 5: run dye, which is still. 331 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 4: It's not great. 332 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 5: It's it's better than it was at some points in 333 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 5: the year, but it's still averaged about seven sixteen seventeens 334 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 5: by DVA weighted, So I think, Philly, you know, it's 335 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 5: gonna be a much more of a struggle than then 336 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 5: I think people think. And the thing that I really 337 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 5: caught my eye about Minshew was that he had a 338 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 5: seventy nine pasth rating. He has a seventy nine paths 339 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 5: rating this year from a queen pocket. He has a 340 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 5: sixty two pass the rating when he's not blitzed. 341 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 4: And you know, New Orleans is for. 342 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 5: Whatever reason, they haven't been the greatest at getting pressure, 343 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 5: but they don't force it. They kind of sit back 344 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 5: and they're gonna play their coverage and Minshew really hasn't 345 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 5: been great even with all those weapons against those coverages yet. 346 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 5: So you know, I think there's even a chance Philadelphia 347 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 5: could end up losing this game. But I could see, 348 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 5: you know, twenty seven to twenty four, twenty three to 349 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 5: twenty type of game where New Orleans stays feisty on 350 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 5: both sides of the ball, runs some Taysom Hill packages 351 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 5: and stays in this. 352 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 4: So give me New Orleans plus six. 353 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I completely agree here. Lane Johnson injury is huge. 354 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 2: The Eagles are three and ten straight up without Lane 355 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 2: Johnson since twenty twenty, arguably the best right tackle in 356 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 2: the NFL. He's huge. You also have like CJ. Garter Johnson, 357 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 2: probably still out of Ante Maddox, who's really really important. 358 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 2: He's most likely out Jordan Davis, who's been so big 359 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 2: to the Rundy the rund numbers fall off a cliff. 360 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: He has a concussion. You also look at their practice 361 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 2: report from today. Miles Sanders would have been a DMP 362 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 2: with an injury, and as and Aj Brown is limited 363 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: with a knee injury, assuming he'll play. But yeah, the 364 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: Saints defense has been playing a lot better. They're healthier now. 365 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: They are one of three teams the NFL that has 366 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 2: allowed less than twenty points and four straight games, the 367 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,239 Speaker 2: other two being the Steelers and Ravens, who play each other. 368 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 2: We'll talk about that game later, But yeah, the Eagles 369 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 2: aren't healthy now. Eagles are also thirteen and two in 370 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: the last twenty years. And I agree this line is inflated. 371 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 2: Last twenty years. Teams within eighty five percent plus win 372 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 2: percentage in that has to be week ten or later 373 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 2: fifty one point eighty nine and two against the spread 374 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 2: thirty six point four percent. So yeah, I agree with 375 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 2: you on the Saints with Minshew star arding And yeah, 376 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: I think the Eagles, you can cut this out of 377 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 2: the I like, look, the coaches wanted to like rest 378 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,719 Speaker 2: last week, and they got all these injuries because and 379 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: Lorie came down late in the week and said, no, 380 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 2: we got to beat the Cowboys, and they ended up 381 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: playing everyone and getting hurt, getting key injuries. Lane Johnson, 382 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: if he's out for the postseason, that could be massive. 383 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 2: They're going against the forty nine ers the Cowboys. You 384 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,239 Speaker 2: saw when Lane Johnson went down against the Cowboys. It 385 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 2: was a completely different game when they were playing against 386 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 2: Cooper Rush and they had to just our offense just 387 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 2: went into the tank. So yeah, they they had a 388 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 2: number of injuries. Jordan Davison board in the run game. 389 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: They had some secondary injuries. And yeah, I think the 390 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 2: Saints will be feisty, hear in a lower scoring game. 391 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 2: I think six is the way to go. 392 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 4: By the way. 393 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 5: You know, what's what it's setting up for with these 394 00:19:54,920 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 5: NFC playoffs, right, you know forty nine ers keep moving quarterbacks, 395 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 5: moving key players. You know, the Vikings are gonna just 396 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 5: end up winning the NFC and going to Super Bowl 397 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 5: after this fucking ridiculous season eleven and eleven and zero 398 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 5: in one score games like it's gonna happen. 399 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 2: That's enough to Vikings plus twenty one against the Bills 400 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. The thing is, then Vikings fans 401 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: will be will say, oh, look see we were everyone 402 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 2: said we were. We weren't as good as no, you're 403 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 2: I mean, your estimated wins are six, by the way, 404 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 2: they have twelve. But all you gonna do is get 405 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 2: in the I think the Giants in two thousand and 406 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: eleven finished they won the Super Bowl. By the way, 407 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 2: they finish the season, including the playoffs, with a negative 408 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: point differential. I believe that's the cry the whole season. 409 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 2: They snuck in the playoffs. That's all you gotta do, 410 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 2: sneak in. Once you get in again, you could win 411 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 2: a You're gonna you could win a couple more lucky games, 412 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, you're in the Super Bowl. 413 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: It's football. So yeah, that would be very fitting for 414 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 2: this season. All right. For my second pick of the 415 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 2: Throw all the Week, seventeen Sunday six pack, I'm going 416 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: with the Indianapolis Colts plus five and a half at 417 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: the New York Giants. This is a bread and butter 418 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 2: play for me. I'll have an article out this weekend 419 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 2: next week about these types of plays. Week seventeen, Week 420 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 2: eighteen teams that need to win everyone. Look, the Giants 421 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: need to win. The Colts are dead, They're eliminating everyone. 422 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: Just saw them get embarrassed again on Monday Night football 423 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: eliminated teams the final two weeks of the regular season 424 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: playing teams that need to win are ninety five, fifty 425 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 2: seven and four against the spread. That sixty two point 426 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,479 Speaker 2: four percent sixty two and a half percent since nineteen 427 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 2: ninety sample size of about one hundred and fifty games, 428 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 2: sixty two and a half percent because the teams that 429 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 2: need to win are generally inflated late in the season, 430 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 2: and for what it's worth, last twe week's the thirgo season. Also, 431 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 2: teams are the win percentage between forty and seventy percent 432 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 2: who have a five to thirty five percent win differential 433 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 2: in the positive direction against their opponent are fifty seven, 434 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: eighty eight and five against the spread thirty nine point 435 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 2: three percent over the past twenty years, So I think 436 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 2: this number is inflated like the Giants have been feisty. 437 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 2: But the Giants also have all their wins. All eight 438 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: wins have come by one score, including a number of 439 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 2: fourth quarter comebacks. Nick Foles is going to get the 440 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: start again for the Colts. I don't think there's any 441 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 2: drop off between him and Ryan and so whatever. They 442 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: all stink, but at least Foles got the rust off right. 443 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: Like last week was his first game. You could tell 444 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: he was just off and like reading coverages, and it 445 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 2: was his first first action of the season. So he's 446 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 2: not going to be good, but he'll be better than 447 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 2: he was last week after or at least I assume, 448 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: And then you alf the Colts should also get their 449 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: run game going here, going against the Giants Rundy, which 450 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 2: is I think thirty first and EPAI per rush thirty first, DVOA. 451 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 2: They're very bad, poor Rundy. So the Colts actually can 452 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: lean on a little bit on the ground here and 453 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: the Giants. You're asking the Giants to win by touchdown here. 454 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 2: That is not the Giants. Mo. This is when you 455 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 2: want to fade the Giants at home as a favor. 456 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: By the way, Daniel Jones, this is he's only been 457 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 2: favored by more than this one other time he's favored 458 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 2: by six and a half. At Cincy in twenty twenty, 459 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 2: they must have been sitting guys. I don't even know, 460 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 2: but they are. They only won by two in that game, a. 461 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 4: Game, that's what it was. 462 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 2: A bright now, So yeah, this is when you want 463 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 2: to fade the Giants, all the pressures on the Giants. 464 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 2: The Colts are still gonna try. There's still professional athletes. 465 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 2: This is what happens in the NFL every single season. 466 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 2: And by the way, the Colts, what if when we 467 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: backed them this year after an embarrassing loss, what have 468 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 2: they done after their double digit losses this year? They 469 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: lost by three at Minnesota In the game they were 470 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 2: up thirty three nothing. They beat the Chiefs, but yes, yeah, 471 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 2: and they won at the Raiders, so they were three 472 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 2: and zero against the spread as underdogs should be three 473 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 2: and oh straight up, this line is too high. You're 474 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 2: asking this Giants team which is still Yeah. Look, their 475 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 2: offense has been way better just because of the coaching. 476 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 2: There's a huge coaching mismatch here. But I like coaching 477 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 2: mismatches when I had back in the team as an 478 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: underdog a lot more than when they have to cover 479 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 2: by margin here, So I think this line is a 480 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 2: little inflated. All the pressure is on the Giants and 481 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: give me the Colts here after getting embarrassed on Monday 482 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 2: night with Big Dick Nick Foles. 483 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, I was thinking about this one too. I 484 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 4: think this is the right side. 485 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 5: Uh you know, probably, and I know some people were 486 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 5: on the I think sharps were on the the Coats 487 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 5: last week too against the Chargers, but probably a week 488 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 5: too soon. You know, as you mentioned, Foles has to 489 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:41,959 Speaker 5: knock off the rut. They have to kind of get 490 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 5: their offense in line here. But yeah, this Giant team, 491 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 5: we know their mo You know they're gonna be in 492 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 5: a one possession game and they you know, now they 493 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 5: have to win it by a touchdown. They have to 494 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 5: you know, prevent the Coats from you know, getting a 495 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 5: backdoor way you know, foes one to throw down field. 496 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 5: More Giants will play man coverage, so folks will get 497 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 5: some opportunities to throw it down the field. Now we connect, 498 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 5: We don't know, but the Colts receivers aren't terrible. I 499 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 5: mean they got they got heath a skilled with position guys, 500 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 5: so you know, just have to get full some time 501 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 5: a couple of times to get to get some shots downfield. 502 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, and the good thing is you have a 503 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: you know, it's a low total for what it's worth. 504 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 2: Week sixteen road Dogs from twenty three to twenty twenty, 505 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 2: that was before the schedule expansions. At a second to 506 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 2: last week road Dogs that with an under five hundred record, 507 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 2: catching over a field goal fifty three to thirty five 508 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: and two against the spread sixty percent a lot of 509 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 2: times these teams. Again, that goes that that speaks directly 510 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 2: to like the teams that need to win, playing a 511 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 2: team that's already eliminated, usually getting some line value. The 512 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: other thing is here you're getting a Colts defense that's 513 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 2: healthy now and it's still a top ten unit. I 514 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: think their tenth DVOA and eight and waded DVA, so 515 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: that yeah, they're still playing the most recent games. Yeah, yeah, 516 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: they're still playing hard, and yeah, I think that this 517 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 2: game will be close. Wouldn't shock me at the Colts won. 518 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the total thirty eight and a half, 519 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 5: you know, was thinking about that under but it's just 520 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 5: gotten so low. And because the Giants play man coverage 521 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 5: not not my favorite spot, you know, especially with the 522 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 5: Colts coming off a bad game. You know, usually those 523 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 5: Lions are kind of inflated the other way deflated, I 524 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 5: guess you could say with you know, with the team 525 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 5: coming off a three point show. And so yeah, I 526 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 5: like this one. And speaking of which, for my second. 527 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 4: Pick, the fourth overall of the. 528 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 5: Week, seventeen Sunday six pack, I'm going with the Chicago 529 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 5: Bears plus six at the Detroit Lions. And you kind 530 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 5: of hit on a lot of the reasoning with the 531 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 5: with the Colts. I mean, the Bears are, you know, 532 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 5: playing for draft positioning at this point, and the Lions 533 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 5: still have a playoff shot, and I think this is 534 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 5: too many points. I think this would be too many 535 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 5: points even regardless here, because yeah, I know Chicago's defense 536 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 5: is very bad, but their secondaries has been improving over 537 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 5: the last couple of weeks. Kyra Gordon, the rookie is 538 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 5: ranked twenty second of one of six qualifiers at Cornerball. 539 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 2: You go, you're going with the Bears. Yeah, God damn you. 540 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: So we do it to give a uh peek into 541 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 2: how we do this. So like we'll just message each 542 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 2: other because we do a steak draft. And I think, 543 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 2: by the way, eight weeks in a arrow. You've gone 544 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 2: with a pick. Your first pick has been one that 545 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:32,719 Speaker 2: I wanted you picked. You messaged me Detroit, Oh, so, 546 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 2: which doesn't matter, but I was I was like, oh, 547 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 2: I was like, I like the Bears. I was like, 548 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 2: I could pick up a point here. Yeah. I'm so 549 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 2: curious to hear your reason for with Detroit. 550 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 4: No no, no, no. 551 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, so really far. 552 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm taking about Bears plus Stics because of the 553 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 5: same reason they are eliminated. Detroit is not. I think 554 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 5: this is too many points. I think Chicago's secondary is improving, 555 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 5: as I mentioned. You know, Ky Gordon's ran twenty second 556 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 5: over the last couple of weeks, got two picks, and 557 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 5: jaymen Jones or ear other corner. Uh IS has allowed 558 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 5: just fifty nine yards and ten targets with two path 559 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 5: breakups over the last two weeks. And so I think that, 560 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 5: you know, the d line is still bad. Let's not 561 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 5: get it twisted. But we'll talk about Detroit. I mean, 562 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 5: Detroit's kind of stinking back down as well. But you know, 563 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 5: we know Detroit left the Blitz justin fields one O 564 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 5: five path rating against the Blitz compared to A two 565 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 5: when he's not blitz, So you know it might make 566 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 5: Detroit make a decision here, do you want to kind 567 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 5: of play left handed and not not send everybody and 568 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 5: kind of sit back and protect against s fielders's running, 569 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 5: or do you want to you know, play to your 570 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 5: your identity and risk him, you know, falling out. 571 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 4: So I think that's that's a good match up here 572 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 4: for fields. And this isn't just Detroit team. I said 573 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 4: on this podcast, the defense has improved. We both talked 574 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 4: about it. 575 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 5: And then they come out last week in a game 576 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 5: that they really could have used and gave up three 577 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 5: hundred and twenty rushing yards to the Carolina Panthers eight 578 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 5: and a half yards per club Like it was absurd, 579 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 5: I mean not sorry club, And not only that, yeah, 580 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 5: they give up, Yeah, the guards for play exactly, because 581 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 5: not only do they give up three hundred and twenty 582 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 5: yards on the ground, they let Sam Donald get two 583 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 5: hundred and fifty passing yards on just twenty two attempts. 584 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 5: So the average Sam Donald's averaging. 585 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 4: Over ten yards per past attempt last week. 586 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 5: So you know, you want to call it reversion to 587 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 5: the meeting, because this defense was one of the week's 588 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 5: worst over the first you know what seven eight games 589 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 5: of the year. Uh, But at this point, I don't 590 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 5: think we can trust De Troy's defense. I know they're 591 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 5: at home, so I think their offense will be fine. 592 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 5: But again, I think Chicago can hang here because feels 593 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 5: good against the Boys. 594 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 4: It's Detroit deep. 595 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 5: Chicago could do some of what Carolina did in terms 596 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 5: of game planning, except they have a much more explosive 597 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 5: quarterback that adds a whole different element, you know, to that, 598 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 5: because Detroit also has been one of the worst teams 599 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 5: in the league against running quarterbacks. So you know, I 600 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 5: think Chicago is going to be able to score points here. 601 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 5: And remember Chicago in Soldier Field had a twenty four 602 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 5: to ten lead after three quarters in Week ten, So 603 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 5: that was after Detroit already kind of was on the 604 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 5: up and up. 605 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 4: And Detroit ends up winning that game by one point. 606 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 5: But you know, Detroit had just two penalties in that game, 607 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 5: Chicago had nine. 608 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 4: Chicago still loses by one. 609 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 5: Detroit had no turnovers in that game Chicago had won, 610 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 5: so and this could easily be a three to four 611 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 5: point win for Detroit even if it is a win. 612 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 5: But I think Chicago's still playing hard here. They but 613 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 5: you know they're not giving up on the season. They 614 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 5: want Justin stields want does he wants the rushing record? 615 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 5: Iberfoth says he wants them to finish wearn how to 616 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 5: close games. You know, they were in it against Buffalo 617 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 5: and then it kind of the score got away late. 618 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 5: So I think Chicago here is going to hang close 619 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 5: and we see this, you know beyond just the team 620 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 5: face and elimination versus teams are nothing to play for, 621 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 5: just you know, team underdogs coming off a bad loss. 622 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 5: When you when you have an underdog coming off a 623 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 5: loss of twenty or more points since twenty seventeen, one away, 624 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 5: seventy and three sixty against the spread. So I like 625 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 5: the Chicago Bears for sixth year. I think it's another 626 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 5: one of those games that Chicago just hangs around, just 627 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 5: like they did against Atlanta, just like they did against Miami. 628 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 5: Uh just you know they've been in most of these 629 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,479 Speaker 5: games this year with the you know, with the exception 630 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 5: of a select few. So like Chicago in this spot 631 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 5: to get it done. 632 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 2: Plus six. Yeah, I love the Bears here. By the way, 633 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 2: Week sixteen Division road Dogs is six or more from 634 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 2: from two thousand to twenty twenty, the second to last 635 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 2: week the season, seventy three percent against the spread if 636 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,479 Speaker 2: they have an under five hundred record. Again speaks to 637 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 2: the just the line that you're getting on, you know, 638 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 2: playing teams that the market proceeds is dead. But look 639 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 2: if you look at the Lions all and all the 640 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 2: lines of all the pressure of your team that's not 641 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 2: used to dealing with the pressure have to win. Bears 642 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: can play loose. Bears were minus three at home last 643 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 2: month in that game you talked about, Now you're catching 644 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 2: six and they should have won that game like they 645 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 2: But there was a that turnover you mentioned it was 646 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: a pick six that flipped the whole game around. So 647 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: not only were they lose the turner about a one nothing, 648 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 2: it was a pick six. And if you look the Bears, 649 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 2: I think it's a good spot to buy the Bears low. 650 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 2: They were competitive in a lot of their losses this year. 651 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: This is the stretch they're coming off of that they 652 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 2: got brought up by the Jets. It was simmy and 653 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 2: against Mike White. Then they played the Packers, who they 654 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: should have beat like if you look statistically, they dominated 655 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 2: that game. Then they played the Eagles they covered against, 656 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 2: and the Bills, though it's very tough stretch. And if 657 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 2: you look at the Lions, like I thought their defense 658 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 2: was improving, I dug into the lines like their rundy's 659 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 2: very bad still, and that's obviously what the Bears are 660 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 2: going to do here, and I think that they can 661 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 2: exploit that run dye. The Lion's defense also is allowing 662 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 2: a touchdown or first down on seventy seven percent of series. 663 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 2: That's the highest percentage of the NFL. They're also allowing 664 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 2: the lowest forcing the lowest punt percentage in the NFL 665 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 2: at ten percent. And if we look, you know, everyone 666 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 2: has kind of just fell in over the lines over 667 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: their last eight games six and two stretch. But over 668 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 2: that time, if you dig in thirty first an EPA 669 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 2: per play on defense, if you remove turnovers, they were 670 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 2: getting a bit lucky on turnovers, red zone special teams, 671 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 2: like look at that Jets game with their special teams plays. 672 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: So yeah, they were getting fortunate defense. The defense is 673 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 2: still bad. This is too many points, great spot for 674 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 2: the Bears. Wouldn't be shocked if Chicago pulls this off. 675 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 2: For my third pick of the week, seventeen Sunday six pack. 676 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: I'm going with the Denver Broncos plus twelve and a 677 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: half against the Kansas City Chiefs. I played the Broncos 678 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 2: and look, now you're in a dead zone. I played 679 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: them thirteen and a half and thirteen you so, I 680 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 2: FI think to thirteen out there, you might as well wait, like, 681 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 2: it's not going to go down to ten. Eleven would 682 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 2: be semi important. It's not going to keep going down. 683 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 2: You wait to see if there's some late Chiefs money. 684 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 2: I think because thirteen is decently important, I don't think it 685 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 2: would ever get back up to fourteen. But I played 686 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 2: the Broncos a couple of weeks ago when they were 687 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: catching eight and a half nine at home, and I 688 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: think that this is a good spot to bat them 689 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: on the road against the Chiefs team that generally doesn't 690 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: cover these big numbers, especially at home, and by the way, 691 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 2: in the lower scoring environment this year, double digit favorites 692 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 2: are eight and fifteen against the spread on the season. 693 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 2: That's the worst start for double digit favorites in the 694 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 2: last twenty years. And look, the Broncos also got blown 695 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,720 Speaker 2: out last week, lost by thirty five, but thirty six 696 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 2: to the Rams, gave up fifty plus. Just an absolute 697 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 2: classic spot when you're betting the NFL, both of them combined. 698 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: Let's just look historically, lose by thirty five plus the 699 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 2: next week seventy four, forty one and five against the spread, 700 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: covering by about a field goal per game as an underdog, 701 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 2: he after you lose by thirty five plus fifty seven, 702 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: twenty six and five, covering by about three and a 703 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 2: half points per game, that sixty nine percent. Nice. How 704 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 2: about as a double digit underdog after losing by thirty 705 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 2: five plus sixteen and three against the spread of the 706 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,240 Speaker 2: past twenty years, covering by ten points per game eighty 707 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 2: four percent. How About when you allow fifty plus sixty 708 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 2: one percent over the past twenty years. How about a 709 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 2: lose by thirty five plus and give up fifty eighteen 710 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 2: and nine against the spread, covering by five points per 711 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 2: game and as a dog seventy percent when both of 712 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 2: those things happen. So look the de Broncos offense, I mean, 713 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 2: last week was just an absolute embarrassing effort. Hackett got canned. Historically, 714 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 2: there's a little bump in the first week with a 715 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 2: new head coach. I don't think it can get any 716 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 2: can't get any worse without Hackett. I think he already 717 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 2: had lost the team. Russell Wilson, who's been horrific this year. 718 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,280 Speaker 2: His only game where he looked competent was against these Chiefs, 719 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 2: and by the way, court and something didn't even play 720 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 2: that game whole play in this game, Jerry Judy went off. 721 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,959 Speaker 2: These two teams are familiar with each other. Divisional game 722 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 2: late in the season. I think this is too many 723 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,760 Speaker 2: points for a Broncos defense that played well every single 724 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 2: week up until last week, and I think they just 725 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 2: had enough and things just just got out of control. 726 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,800 Speaker 2: But this is a prideful unit. They're playing their rival 727 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 2: in Kansas City. I think they'll show up here. And 728 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 2: this is when you want to fade the Chiefs, and 729 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 2: you want to fade Mahomes when he's in by the way, 730 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 2: he's under five hundred against a spread at home, and 731 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 2: you know, as a favorite, not great when he's a 732 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 2: favor by over seven points. So I think Denvers defense 733 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 2: shows up here. It's a classic spot to buy an 734 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: NFL team after they got completely embarrassed in a divisional 735 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 2: game with a lower ish total. This is too many points. 736 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 5: To me me, what was one of the last things 737 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 5: I said on the podwast week They ain't Broncos d 738 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 5: A C. 739 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 4: Baker bake yet. 740 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 2: Baked up one of my worst I had some Broncos 741 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 2: probably my worst worst stat. 742 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 5: I told you man that you could just see it 743 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 5: coming from a mile away, like just a meltdown on 744 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 5: the West Coast in the game, and they just give 745 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 5: no fucks about But now now, yeah, now I think 746 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 5: it's about pride. 747 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 4: I wish I knew more about this Rothsburg guy. 748 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,280 Speaker 5: I really it's kind of an odd uh odd choice 749 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 5: for the interim coach. 750 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 4: But I guess I heard a Varo turned it down. 751 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 5: Uh So, weird, weird stuff going on, But yeah, you 752 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 5: usually see teams like this bounce back and kind of 753 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 5: keep it close. Uh for at least that first week 754 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 5: after they after they fired their coach. And the Chiefs 755 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 5: really haven't been covering many of these numbers. Uh so, 756 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 5: uh yeah, I don't disagree. 757 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 2: It's this summers too high for I guess a Broncos 758 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: defense where you can give him a pass for one week. 759 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 2: This has been one of the best defenses in the 760 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,800 Speaker 2: league the entire season. 761 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, for my third in the sixth of 762 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 5: Raw of the Week seventeen six pack. I'm going with 763 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 5: the Pittsburgh Steelers plus two and a half at FANDUL, 764 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 5: the official sponsor of the Action Network podcast at the 765 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 5: Baltimore Ravens. See if you can get a three. I 766 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 5: think this number got steamed. But you know there are 767 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 5: some there were some threes sitting around. Maybe it'll get back, 768 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 5: maybe it won't, but don't doesn't look like we're gonna 769 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 5: get Lamar Jackson here. And you know, this is a 770 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 5: game that I just think when you look at the 771 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 5: history of these two teams, I almost blind back the 772 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 5: underdog in this matchup because if you go back Harball versus. 773 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 4: Tom Win, Pittsburgh. 774 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 5: Versus Baltimore, the underdog is twenty one five and three 775 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 5: against the spread, no matter if it's if Baltimore is 776 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 5: the underdog or Pittsburgh gender whoever it is, the underdog 777 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,919 Speaker 5: in the matchup is twenty one to five and three 778 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:58,320 Speaker 5: eighty one percent the last ten games Pittsburgh versus Baltimore, 779 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 5: the underdog is ten and h against the spread. These 780 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 5: are just close games. They're gonna be decided. Sometimes are 781 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 5: not even decided by a field goal. Sometimes it's you know, 782 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 5: a two point conversion at the end, a safety, something silly. 783 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 5: So this is the exact kind of game you're gonna 784 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 5: get that. The total is thirty five. Tyra Huntley, I 785 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 5: don't think he's going to play well against this defense 786 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 5: because when you look at Pittsburgh. 787 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 4: Blitz at the fourth highest rate. 788 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 5: Now that's what they've kind of kind of decided is 789 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 5: their identity. And Huntley is fiftieth to fifty one quarterbacks 790 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 5: in PFF grade against the blitz at thirty nine point 791 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 5: four minimum with a minimum of twenty blitz dropbacks. This year, 792 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 5: this Pittsburgh defense is up to twelfth and waited dva 793 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 5: SO and Huntley with average think it's one hundred and 794 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 5: fourteen pathing yards. So Baltimore, they're gonna have to run 795 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 5: the ball. But Pittsburgh defends the run very well. There's 796 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 5: seventh in a weighted run defense DVAA. They've been good 797 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 5: against the run a year, so I think it'll be 798 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 5: a struggle there. 799 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 4: And on the. 800 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 5: Other side of the ball, Baltimore's defense has been great. 801 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 5: You're not gonna kind of make any bones about it. 802 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 5: Baltimore has been a one bet, one of the best 803 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 5: defenses in the league. But against a team like Pittsburgh win, 804 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,760 Speaker 5: you're not gonna be able to run the ball as well. 805 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 5: When Huntley is not really going to be able to 806 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 5: do much against the Blitz. I think Pittsburgh can do 807 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 5: enough year with Kenny Pickett, uh, you know, Najie, Harris, Deonte, 808 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 5: all those guys. I think they'll get You know this, 809 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 5: you could get fourteen sixteen points here and if not 810 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 5: win the game outright cover the spread. So I like 811 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh here. I think they are a live dog. And Tomlin, 812 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 5: we know him. Any spots fifty and twenty seven you 813 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 5: can spread as a dog sixty five percent as a 814 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 5: dog from October on, He's forty one, nineteen and two 815 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,760 Speaker 5: sixty eight percent against the spread as a dog against 816 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 5: an opponent with a better record twenty six ten seventy 817 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 5: two percent against the spread. And you know Baltimore, they 818 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 5: did quinch a playoff spot. So you know, this is 819 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 5: just kind of one of these spots where I think 820 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh is going to come out a little more motivated. 821 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 5: Here curiously to hear your thoughts, because obviously you know 822 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 5: the Ravens very well, But I like Pittsburgh in the spot, 823 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 5: I loved the dog almost indiscriminately in this matchup. 824 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would also probably look under again. I think 825 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 2: I said last week that the the Falcons we wouldn't 826 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 2: get to ten and it'll be like seventeen to nine, 827 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 2: and it was the Yeah, it's I thought. I don't 828 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 2: mind taking the points in this robbery, especially with Alamar Jackson. 829 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,319 Speaker 2: But anytime these two teams play, if you take if 830 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 2: you took since Harball Arrive in Baltimore two thousand and eight, 831 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 2: if you took the underdog of three or more in 832 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 2: this matchup, you would be seventeen to one and three 833 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 2: against the spread seventeen one and three. And if you 834 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 2: look at the games with Hunt Link at least played 835 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 2: four games with the Ravens. The Ravens games haven't gone 836 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 2: past thirty total points average of twenty two points seventy five. 837 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 2: The scores have been ten to nine, sixteen to fourteen, 838 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 2: thirteen to three, and seventeen to nine. And yeah, Steelers 839 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 2: defense playing really well. Both these teams haven't allowed more 840 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 2: than twenty points over the past four weeks, both run 841 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 2: heavy teams, both really good run defenses. Ravens run defense 842 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 2: been the best in the NFL since signing Roklwan Smith. 843 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 2: You know you got Bowser, you got a bows into 844 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 2: the mix. You got Marcus Williams back. Now I doubt 845 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 2: Peters or Campbell plays, Like the same reason why I 846 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: don't think Lamar Jackson will play. It's just the Ravens 847 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 2: are in the playoffs already, and in a way, you know, 848 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: they might not even care about winning the division. Like, 849 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 2: you win the division, you're like hosting the Chargers, and 850 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 2: if you don't, you're going to the Jags or Titans 851 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 2: and the first round. So like, I what do you 852 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. I might choose door two. Now, if 853 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 2: the Ravens lose this game, you might have the NFL 854 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 2: come in and bring in the Bills, refsh Night and Sincy. 855 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 2: So the Sincy Baltimore game, This determines the division next week. 856 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 2: But because if Ravens lose this game and the Bengals lose, 857 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 2: then the game next week still determines the division. But 858 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: if the Bengals win and Ravens lose in the Bengals 859 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 2: win the division in that game means nothing next week. 860 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 2: So they just want to make sure Lamar. You know, 861 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 2: Peters Campbell and everyone are healthy for the playoffs. I 862 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 2: don't care about this game. It's prime time, it's against 863 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 2: their rival, but yeah, points will be at a premium here. 864 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 2: Steels Steve has been a different animal t J Watt. 865 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: I mean since drafting in twenty seventeen. They're fifty seven 866 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 2: to twenty six and two when he's in the lineup, 867 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 2: one in ten without him, over a yard per play 868 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 2: more when he's not on the field. So yeah, I 869 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 2: would try to get three. Obviously, I would even buy 870 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 2: buy it to three, up to minus one twenty five here, 871 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 2: just because points are going to be at such a premium, 872 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 2: and there's a really good chance that sends it one 873 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 2: to two or three, but for the sake of its contest, 874 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 2: that doesn't matter. But yeah, I don't mind taking the 875 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 2: points here. And there's even like an illness going around 876 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 2: with the Ravens now but they just gets it's hontly 877 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 2: and there's no receivers. 878 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, and in the last good Yeah, I was gonna 879 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 5: say in the last matchup. You know, they played a 880 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 5: couple weeks ago and obviously Hunt we went down for 881 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 5: part of that game, but the Ravens ended up winning 882 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 5: sixteen fourteen, but the Steelers turned it over three times. 883 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 4: Yeah. 884 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 5: Well, Kenny Pickett has thrown one pick over his last 885 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 5: five starts that he finished, so can you Pickett? The 886 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 5: one thing he has been doing better is taking care 887 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 5: of the football. And you know, if you do that 888 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 5: against in this kind of game, you know, Pittsburgh out 889 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 5: gained them last time. You know, I think Pittsburgh can. 890 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 5: I think Pittsburgh can get the win here. And like 891 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 5: you said, yeah, I don't know if Baltimore fully is 892 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 5: fully invested. Obviously they're not going to just hank it, 893 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 5: but uh yeah, like Pittsburgh here. All right, that is 894 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 5: going to wrap up the week sixteen SNY six pack. 895 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 5: Duck is going Jets minus one and a half, Coats 896 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 5: plus five and a half, and Broncos plus twelve and 897 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 5: a half. I'm going with the Saints plus sixty, Bears 898 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 5: plus five and a half in the Heelers plus two 899 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 5: and a half. So we got some Michael, I got. 900 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 2: Mike White, falls and Russell Wilson. Mike White's the best 901 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 2: quarterback in that group. 902 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, I mean I got oh, I got Fields, 903 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 5: Dalton and Pickets, So yeah, I got Fields. 904 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 4: It's the best quarterback in that yayh yeah, uh yeah. 905 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 5: This is uh, this is week seventeen. So let's get 906 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,399 Speaker 5: into our coaches pep talk. 907 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 2: Every time we get ready to play, I just want 908 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 2: to throw up. 909 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 4: I'm sick I'm watching you guys play. 910 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 5: This week's coaches pep talk comes to us from Rocky 911 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 5: bell Boa in the nineteen eighty five film Rocky four. 912 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 5: And uh, we got to dedicate this one to I 913 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 5: think got dedicated to Rothsberg Man. Give Denver something to 914 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 5: smile about, even if it's just a cover. To keep 915 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 5: dedicating it to these to these these coaches, and they 916 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 5: keep covering. So let's go with Rothberg year and get 917 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 5: us a cover for the pod. 918 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 3: I came here tonight. I didn't know what to expect. 919 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 3: I seen a lot of people hating me, and I 920 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 3: didn't know what to feel about that. So I guess 921 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 3: I didn't like you much. Note either, during this fight, 922 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of changing. The way you've felt 923 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 3: about me and the way I felt about you. 924 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 2: What else? Trying to say this? 925 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 3: If I can change and you can change, everybody can change. 926 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 4: All right, let's get into our favorite total of the week. 927 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 5: All right, for my total Uh, what soul disclosure was 928 00:46:56,120 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 5: gonna go Tampa Carolina. But recording this on Wednesday, and 929 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 5: there seems like there's a lot of guys eden that 930 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 5: would help the total go over and the guys that 931 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 5: are out would help it go over as well. Like 932 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 5: you know, obviously JC Horn is gonna miss and Veyas 933 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 5: might miss, but you have Lineman getting healthier for Tampa. 934 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna go with the Rams Chargers under forty 935 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 5: one instead. This Charger defense is really started to lock 936 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,760 Speaker 5: in over these last three weeks. Twenty three to fifteen 937 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 5: against Miami in a game where you got Tyreek Hill, 938 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 5: We're trying to fumble like seventy yards for touchdown on offense, 939 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 5: and you still give up fifteen points to Miami, seventeen 940 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 5: fourteen against Tennessee, twenty to three against the Indianapolis Coats, 941 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 5: and I think we're getting probably a little bit of 942 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 5: inflation here. Obviously you have to upgrade the Rams a 943 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 5: little bit after what they did to the Broncos, but 944 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 5: I think this is a letdown spot here against this 945 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 5: Charger defense. They can man up Broncos, one thing about them, 946 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,839 Speaker 5: talented defense, but they play a lot of zone. Uh, 947 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 5: Chargers can man up here, I think with this Rams offense. 948 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 4: I mean, you're down all your receivers, you're. 949 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 5: Starting at well and Van Jefferson with Brandon Powell's your 950 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 5: third h So it's rough out here and I think 951 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 5: cam Akers will still get his though They're gonna have 952 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 5: to win on cam Akers, but that will weave the clock. 953 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 5: And on the other side, this Rams defense just loves 954 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 5: to play zone. 955 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 4: They play zone at a top three rate, and. 956 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 5: That the Chargers, you know, justin Herbert is obviously great, 957 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 5: but zone defense kind of just flows down the Chargers. 958 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 5: They'll have they have to kind of methodically drive down 959 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:49,280 Speaker 5: the field. They're averaging almost a yard per target less 960 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 5: against zone than they are against men. 961 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 4: And we kind of saw that play out against. 962 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 5: The Colts where it's just, you know, the Chargers dominated 963 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 5: the game, but the scoreboard didn't look that crazy at 964 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 5: the end of the day. And I think you're gonna 965 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 5: seek a similar result here in this one. So give 966 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 5: me Rams Chargers under forty one. 967 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, ill more on this game later, but we can 968 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 2: let's cross off the that Panthers Bucks game because I 969 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,240 Speaker 2: just want to talk about this. By the way, Brady's 970 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 2: won eleven and one against the spread past thirteen games. 971 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,360 Speaker 2: If the Bucks don't go too and zero against the 972 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:27,760 Speaker 2: spread to close the season, Brady will have the least 973 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 2: profitable single season for starting quarterback over the past twenty years. 974 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 2: Now quarterback will have been less profitable in one season 975 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 2: from the from the fucking go cover the guy who 976 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 2: was all seventy percent. Maybe it's the It's Brady regression. 977 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 2: Father Time is undefeated though the Bucks. Tackle injuries are 978 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 2: big here though, but yeah, there's there's defensive injuries. Keep 979 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:51,879 Speaker 2: an eye on. I was looking at that under two 980 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 2: but got a weird feeling about it. But can we 981 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 2: talk about what? Also? What? What do we have to 982 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 2: talk about Sam Darnold. Out of forty seven quarterbacks with 983 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 2: at least one hundred snaps this year, Sam Donald is 984 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 2: number one in EPA plus completion percentage over expectation composite. 985 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 2: He's tied with Mahomes in adjusted EPA per play. What 986 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 2: is going on? 987 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 6: He's played, he's played for, He's played some bad defenses, 988 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 6: but he's also played the Broncos and who else and 989 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,959 Speaker 6: the Steelers in two of his four games, he's number 990 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 6: one and adjusted EPA for play it's a small sample, 991 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 6: it's four games. 992 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 2: Is Sam Donald back? This would be so Jets that like, yeah, 993 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 2: it's Mike. I mean, Zach Wilson's gonna go somewhere and be. 994 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 4: In all exactly. 995 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 5: I was about to say, it's like, did Jets have 996 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:47,319 Speaker 5: a bust that quarterback? Meanwhile other old quarterbacks that were like, 997 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 5: we're written off his bus are now doing well. 998 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 2: So yeah, but yeah that if Donald looks really good 999 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 2: this week against the Bucks day because you're not really 1000 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,840 Speaker 2: going to be able to lean on the run against Tampa. 1001 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 2: So if if Donald goes out there and wins this 1002 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,919 Speaker 2: game with his arm, I'm gonna have to dig into 1003 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 2: this and this Sam Donald being back narrative. And because 1004 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 2: he's number one, and I was looking at that, I 1005 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 2: was like, Sam Donald is number one, and the Justed 1006 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 2: epap player it's tied with Mahomes. Basically, it's like it's 1007 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:22,480 Speaker 2: like one hundreds of a point difference. It's crazy. All right. 1008 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 2: For my total, I'm gonna go with the Miami Dolphins 1009 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 2: New England Patriots under forty one and a half for 1010 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,280 Speaker 2: what it's worth. Outdoor divisional unders this year, we always 1011 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,359 Speaker 2: talk about them, especially late in the year thirty three 1012 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,479 Speaker 2: fifteen and one against to the under this year, that's 1013 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:43,680 Speaker 2: sixty eight point eight percent. There's a couple of reasons 1014 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:45,919 Speaker 2: why I like this under, in particular, two is out, 1015 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 2: so just think of slight down grade to Teddy Bridgewater. 1016 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 2: And then the Dolphins offense. The league has just kind 1017 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 2: of figure them out. I mean, if you just look 1018 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: at to his numbers week one through twelve, first in 1019 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 2: the NFL and e paper play by a mile weeks 1020 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 2: third team through sixteen, dead last, dead last out of 1021 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 2: every single quarterback over the past four weeks. And the 1022 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,959 Speaker 2: Patriots offense is a mess, right, and they were really 1023 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 2: the Miami's defense. Let's look Miami's defense. They could stop 1024 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 2: the run, which is good. Here against New England, they're 1025 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 2: a mess in the secondary, but that's not something New 1026 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 2: England is going to take advantage of it. And the 1027 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 2: New England offense just a mess from a play calling standpoint. 1028 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 2: And what is Miami also going to do? They're gonna 1029 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:30,760 Speaker 2: blitz and mac Jones has been a disaster against the blitz. 1030 00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 2: A fifty six passer right against the blitz. That's dead 1031 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,320 Speaker 2: last in the NFL. The next worst is Zach Wilson 1032 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 2: at seventy two. That's how much worse he's been. He's 1033 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 2: also dead last a fifty eight point nine percent of 1034 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 2: just a completion percentage against the Blitz. Mariota is the 1035 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 2: next worst at sixty five. So Mac Jones and these 1036 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 2: receivers with the Blitz are not going to take advantage 1037 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 2: of the holes in the Miami secondary. Also, this is 1038 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 2: a huge game for both teams. I expect them to 1039 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 2: play a little conservative. You have a backup quarterback in here. 1040 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,880 Speaker 2: Patriot defense I think can cause some havoc in the backfield, 1041 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,239 Speaker 2: and I think this will. I mean, you saw mac 1042 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,280 Speaker 2: Jones and the opener. You saw the Dolphins offense pretty 1043 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: much get contained in that opening week, So I think 1044 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 2: the pages of a good defensive game plan, their offense 1045 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 2: will remain a mess. This one stays lower scoring outdoors 1046 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 2: divisional rematch, a lot on the line. This ends like 1047 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:20,280 Speaker 2: twenty to seventeen. 1048 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this is Teddy Bridge Water against Mac Jones. 1049 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 4: Wait in the year. Not great? 1050 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 5: All right, that's that's our totals. Duck has the Dolphins 1051 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 5: Pats under forty one and a half. I got the 1052 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:37,799 Speaker 5: Chargers Rams under forty one. Now it's time for our 1053 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 5: favorite teaser. 1054 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 2: Of the week. 1055 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,879 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, six point teasers. 1056 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:58,320 Speaker 4: Chase, don't tease me please, all right, we're going stuck 1057 00:53:58,440 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 4: for week seventeen. 1058 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go Browns against Wentz. Will tease them up 1059 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 2: over a touchdown. Deshaun Watson hasn't been great, but you 1060 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 2: got to remember, like he's been. His preseason's basically over 1061 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 2: now and he's played in like hurricanes, so the conditions 1062 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 2: obviously haven't helped. And you're asking this Washington team with 1063 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 2: Wentz at the helm, it should be able to run 1064 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 2: the ball a little bit, but the win by more 1065 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,760 Speaker 2: than a touchdown in a very low scoring game. Classic 1066 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 2: teaser piece here with the Browns. And then I'm going 1067 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 2: to tease the Chargers down. Not going through the seven here, 1068 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 2: but I make the line over seven and they should 1069 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 2: get the win here. You mentioned it with their defense. 1070 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,840 Speaker 2: That is what makes the Chargers a serious contender in 1071 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 2: the AFC and a team that no division winner, right, 1072 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 2: like the winner of the AFC North, like the Bengals, 1073 00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:48,920 Speaker 2: how good they've been, they have to play the Chargers 1074 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:52,080 Speaker 2: in the first round. That's a brutal reward for winning 1075 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 2: the division because the Chargers are now getting healthier receiver 1076 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 2: and by the Rams don't too much pressure, and the 1077 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:00,799 Speaker 2: Chargers should win this game at home. They'll probably win 1078 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 2: it by like three though, like they'll find a way 1079 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:04,720 Speaker 2: to keep this close, which is why I like teasing 1080 00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 2: the Chargers. But you have to keep in mind that 1081 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 2: the why the Chargers are threaten now is their defense. 1082 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 2: And we'll talk about it more when they play more 1083 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 2: meaningful games about the whys, but we'll just call it 1084 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:23,840 Speaker 2: for now the Tillery effect. And since it's not all that, 1085 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 2: but since releasing you know, from weeks one to seven 1086 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:31,280 Speaker 2: with Jerry Tillery playing, they were twenty ninth at EPA 1087 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 2: per play. Since they released him, they are tenth in 1088 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 2: EPA per play. They played some bad offenses and some 1089 00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:40,960 Speaker 2: really good offenses, so their defense is playing really well. 1090 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 2: Stalley has them cooking. That's what makes the Chargers really 1091 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 2: dangerous here. But yeah, give me the Charterers to win 1092 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,360 Speaker 2: the game and the Browns to keep a low what 1093 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 2: should be a low scoring game within a touchdown. And 1094 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:57,040 Speaker 2: by the way, the Browns Washington game also fits the 1095 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:59,439 Speaker 2: theme and it fits the mold of what we talked 1096 00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 2: about early in Washington needs to win Brown's playing for 1097 00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 2: nothing a lot of times. You also like Washington will 1098 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 2: play tighter, Browns could play loose here, and yeah, so 1099 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 2: I think that there's some also, there's some value in 1100 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,560 Speaker 2: that line going up against Wentz. And yeah, let's go 1101 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 2: Browns Chargers. 1102 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the Browns as well. 1103 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,439 Speaker 5: Washington has won only two games by more than six 1104 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 5: points out of their seven wins, So that means out 1105 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 5: of fifteen games they played, only twice have they won 1106 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 5: by more than six points, none of those games with 1107 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 5: Carson Wentz as the starter. So I do think Cleveland 1108 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:39,399 Speaker 5: keeps it close. And I had I'll throw Pittsburgh in here. 1109 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,320 Speaker 5: Plus eight and a half as well. Already talked about 1110 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 5: the dog in this matchup twenty one and five, you know, 1111 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 5: in the Tom Win Harbaugh era, So teasing it up, 1112 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 5: I mean, I don't have the exact numbers, but it 1113 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 5: probably makes it pretty much undefeated. So we'll go Browns 1114 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,320 Speaker 5: and the Steelers plus seven and a half and plus 1115 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 5: eight and a half. You got the Chargers minus at 1116 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 5: half point in the rounds. Plus seven and a half. 1117 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,359 Speaker 5: That's gonna wrap it for it, teasers. Let's get into 1118 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 5: our money wine underdog parlay. 1119 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 1: Turning good weekends into great weekends. It's time for the 1120 00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: money line parlay. 1121 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 4: All right, stuck, you hit your tenth one of the 1122 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 4: year the Saints. 1123 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 5: I hit my sixth with the Rams, but we did 1124 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 5: hit the parways, So let's keep it going. 1125 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 4: Where you're going this week? 1126 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, sixteen or thirty two on the ear So that's 1127 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 2: really good. It's been a great year for the pod 1128 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 2: Let's keep it rolling. I was gonna go with the Raiders, 1129 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 2: but they benched Car. I don't know, they still have 1130 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:48,000 Speaker 2: a playoff. They stole playoff hopes. Now it's like one percent, 1131 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 2: but like last year they were like one percent with 1132 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago. So going with Jared Sidham. 1133 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 2: I don't think Car has been the problem. I mean 1134 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 2: he hasn't been great, But like you stole playoff hopes, 1135 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 2: you're not gonna go with your starting quarterback. I think this. 1136 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think because they can't. 1137 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 5: They can't get rid of him, Like if he gets injured, 1138 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 5: they have to pay him like forty million. 1139 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, so said he's done, Like he's done it. 1140 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:12,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, pating the way for the divorce, right, Like there's 1141 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 2: Brady to Vegas. I don't know Brady behind that offensive 1142 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 2: line next year, I don't want to see that Brady's 1143 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 2: gonna end up like if he keeps playing, he's gonna 1144 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 2: end up like five hundred against the spread for his 1145 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 2: career after being like seventy percent for eighteen years. Anyway, 1146 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 2: so let's go. Let's I was gonna go with yours, 1147 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 2: but you took mine. So that's a good sign that 1148 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 2: has that been hot on these Yeah, exactly, I'm gonna 1149 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 2: go with the Cardinals. It's I don't feel passionate about it, 1150 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:48,959 Speaker 2: but it's it's it's road dog, Cliff. But it's also 1151 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 2: late season Cliff. But there's some variants here because it's 1152 00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 2: des been ridder. Now he just could to go home 1153 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 2: here after playing the Saints and Raven's two good defenses 1154 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 2: that are playing really well on the road. So you 1155 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 2: think that, you know, now playing the Cardinals, Baker just 1156 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:03,600 Speaker 2: went on ir too. Should be a little bit more 1157 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 2: comfortable in the Dome. But you know, he hasn't looked great, 1158 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,479 Speaker 2: so there's a chance here he's just really really bad. 1159 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 2: Colet McCoy's going to get the start, which is an 1160 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 2: upgrade over traces early. I think not much, but the 1161 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 2: one thing that scares me in this because I do 1162 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 2: think that there's some value in the line, and again 1163 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 2: the Falcons. The Falcons are like a one percent chance 1164 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. I don't even know if it fits 1165 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 2: the team, but the Cardinals aren't playing for anything, and 1166 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 2: the good thing is for their quarterback. Here the Cardinals 1167 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 2: have been Their offensive line is a disaster and they 1168 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 2: can't do anything even though they have talented pieces on 1169 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 2: the outside except through it to my to just get 1170 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 2: it out to my guy, Greg Dortsch, who had like 1171 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,280 Speaker 2: thirty catches last week, the. 1172 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 1: Most electrifying player in football. 1173 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 4: Guess who Greg Torch. 1174 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 2: He's got torch? Why open torch? The individual ever. 1175 00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 1: Got Greg Torch time to get torched with Greg George. 1176 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 2: But the Falcons get no pressure, so like Cole McCoy 1177 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 2: will be in you know, they can't defend the run, 1178 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 2: so like Connor will be able to get his and 1179 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,479 Speaker 2: McCoy will have time to throw. Here. The only fear 1180 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 2: is the Cardinals come out every week. They average like 1181 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 2: two points per first quarter, so they come out every 1182 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 2: week and they go down. And that's not what you 1183 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 2: want to do here with their defense playing the you know, 1184 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 2: the Service Academy of the NFL just runs it and 1185 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 2: they can once. If the Falcons get a lead on 1186 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 2: you at home, it's it's bad. So that's what worries 1187 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 2: me here. But you know, with this Falcon's defense and 1188 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,920 Speaker 2: with the uncertainty around Ritter, I think it's a good 1189 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 2: money on underdog piece. So give me the Cardinals. 1190 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, I mean this is you know, it's it's 1191 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 5: McCoy versus Ridder. It's a toss up game. Really yeah, 1192 01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 5: I'm going with the Houston Texans plus one eight at 1193 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:51,240 Speaker 5: home against the Jaguars. 1194 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 4: Already talked about it with the Jaguars. 1195 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 5: They could kind of take their foot off the gas 1196 01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 5: through it if they have a wet don't want to 1197 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 5: play for There's more scenarios, like another scenario where you know, 1198 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 5: if they win but don't win next week, they could 1199 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 5: you know, winning this week would help them. But more importantly, 1200 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 5: Trevor Lawrence just struggles against his Lovey Smith cover two 1201 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 5: defense in three meetings. 1202 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:15,240 Speaker 4: He first of all, he's oz and three and he's averaging. 1203 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:19,000 Speaker 5: Just six yards in a tempt fifty five percent completions, and. 1204 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 4: It, you know, it just flummeckses him. 1205 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 5: It seems like it just you know, three touchdowns, five picks. 1206 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 4: He just seems to get confused by it. 1207 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 5: And this Houston Texan team, for whatever reason, it predates 1208 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 5: even Lawrence. They've just owned the Jaguars. They are nine 1209 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 5: to oh straight up against Jacksonville in their last nine, 1210 01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 5: and they're five and zero straight up against Jacksonville in 1211 01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 5: their last five when they've been an underdog. 1212 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 4: So this is just what Houston does. 1213 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 5: They just beat Jacksonville, just like Jacksonville always handles the Colts. So, 1214 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 5: you know, for a moneyline dog, obviously Jacksonville is the 1215 01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 5: better team now. Obviously jackson's Ville is more motivated and 1216 01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 5: Lawrence is playing all right now, but this could be 1217 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 5: a little bit of a slip up spot for them 1218 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 5: against Just use the team that's playing pretty feisty. I mean, 1219 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 5: you know, take it down to the wire against Dallas, 1220 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:13,720 Speaker 5: down to the wire against Casey, and then beat the Titans, 1221 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,280 Speaker 5: who were you know, had a lot to play for. 1222 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, give me the Technans plus Wennity. 1223 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, Texans are playing really well, just as an incompetent 1224 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: organization will do. They're trying to blow the number one 1225 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 2: overall pick. I still remember I got knocked down survivor 1226 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 2: really late in the year in one of my pools 1227 01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:39,240 Speaker 2: when the Jets beat the Rams. You remember that game, yep, 1228 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 2: which which cost them Trevor Lawrence ironically enough and got 1229 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 2: them Zach Wilson. So yeah, and the Jags, like, I 1230 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 2: think they'll care, but they might just be like, look, 1231 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 2: it's better, there's better equity and keeping everyone healthy. There's 1232 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 2: also a scenario where they know in like the second 1233 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 2: half that they're eliminated from the wild card based on 1234 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 2: one o'clock results, So then you just pull everybody like 1235 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 2: you don't get Lawrence hurt. So yeah, I agree, this 1236 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 2: is a good money line dog piece. And Lawrence really 1237 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,360 Speaker 2: has struggled with that Lovey Smith cover too. That's why 1238 01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 2: they were gonna be my pick if you didn't go 1239 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:19,919 Speaker 2: with them. So yeah, let's go Cardinals and Texans. 1240 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's about a five five point seven X payout. 1241 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:27,000 Speaker 5: It's about five sixty six on one hundred dollar bets, 1242 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 5: so to keep it. 1243 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 4: Going, and it's prosed out with the best of the rest. 1244 01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 5: Games we haven't covered in any other segment, but are still, 1245 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,720 Speaker 5: as they say, meaningful to some. 1246 01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 3: That's gonna be a touchdown but that may be meaningful 1247 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 3: to some of you, you know what I mean, kind of. 1248 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 4: Talk about that game already. 1249 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:51,720 Speaker 5: But Niners at Raiders, that line is ten now, it's 1250 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 5: probably still moving. 1251 01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 4: The total forty one and a half Niners rowing, Niners 1252 01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 4: covering yards. Did him? I really want no part of 1253 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:03,400 Speaker 4: this now, what about you? 1254 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 2: Yeah? Absolutely, nope. Part I was going. I was thinking 1255 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,200 Speaker 2: about the Raiders and like now I'm thankful that I 1256 01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 2: don't have to play them because I thought that the 1257 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 2: line has a bit inflated. I still haven't fully you know, 1258 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 2: adjusted the Niners to perty is equal to Jimmy g. 1259 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 2: You know, he's been a very favorable game states he's had. 1260 01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 2: You know, he's five turnover worthy, he plays the three 1261 01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 2: big time throws and we'll see. I want to see 1262 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 2: him tested a little bit more, and you know he's 1263 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 2: had it very easy. But the forty nine ers since 1264 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 2: getting McCaffrey full time in Week eight eight No seven 1265 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:40,640 Speaker 2: to one against the spread. There their offenses first, their 1266 01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 2: rush offenses, their pass offenses first, their rush offenses third, 1267 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:47,280 Speaker 2: dv o A. They were ninth and twenty fifth before McCaffrey. 1268 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 2: How about their defensive ranks? Their defensive if you chart 1269 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 2: it like EPA versus anything, it's the Niners are way 1270 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,840 Speaker 2: out now above everyone else. They're first in points and 1271 01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 2: yards per game, first in points and yards per play, 1272 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 2: first in yards per rush number one DBO, number one 1273 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 2: rush defense DV. Like they are rolling right now. They 1274 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,760 Speaker 2: are the scariest team in the NFC in my opinion, 1275 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: if Purdy can just get up to close to Jimmy 1276 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 2: G's level, which isn't asking a ton. But that's really 1277 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 2: the only question with this roster. Look the Raiders. The 1278 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 2: problem with I was what I was scared about playing 1279 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,280 Speaker 2: cars like he's been really bad his whole career, and 1280 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 2: you can get pressure without blitzing, and the forty nine 1281 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 2: Ers can do that. The Raiders also can't cover the 1282 01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 2: slot or running backs out of the backfield. Chandler Jones 1283 01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 2: got hurt, Denzel Perriman got hurt like. Their defense obviously 1284 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:39,560 Speaker 2: blows to the worst pass defense in the NFL. Do 1285 01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 2: I want to play Jared Steadham against this forty nine 1286 01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 2: Ers defense? Absolutely not. Maybe under but no, I'm not 1287 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:47,880 Speaker 2: touching this game. 1288 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the Vikings at the Packers. Packers up to 1289 01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:52,480 Speaker 5: three and a half total forty eight and a half. 1290 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,880 Speaker 5: You know, I think the Vikings are tempting getting over 1291 01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 5: a field goal. 1292 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:57,640 Speaker 4: But we've talked. 1293 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 5: About the year, the Viking the kind of overachieving, and 1294 01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:03,680 Speaker 5: the Packers are quietly you know, top five and DVA, 1295 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 5: you know, since week ten. 1296 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 4: Though, I think the why is more and left right 1297 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:09,680 Speaker 4: probably should be a field goal. 1298 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 5: But either way, don't really want to don't really want 1299 01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 5: to wait points with I mean, don't really want to 1300 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 5: weigh points with. 1301 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:17,680 Speaker 4: The Packers to win by more than a field goal. 1302 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 5: Don't want to, you know, bet on the Vikings who 1303 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:22,360 Speaker 5: have just been overachieving. 1304 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:23,200 Speaker 4: What about you? 1305 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, By the way, everyone has come around on the Packers. 1306 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:28,960 Speaker 2: I was remember I was, I was telling everyone midway 1307 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 2: through the year, they're just getting so unlucky. This offense 1308 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 2: is good now. Christian Watson has been important. He's didn't 1309 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 2: practice today, but I still think that everyone moves the 1310 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,040 Speaker 2: ball in this Viking song like they made the Patriots 1311 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: look really good. This defense is horrinted, like the Giants 1312 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:48,360 Speaker 2: had like four hundred and fifty yards out gaining by 1313 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 2: two yards. Will play last week they with who were 1314 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 2: they throw at? Isaiah Hodgsons had like ten catches and uh, 1315 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:57,760 Speaker 2: and Richie James like they look like Jerry made him 1316 01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 2: look like Justin Jefferson Adam Field, and I was getting 1317 01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 2: confused which side of the offense I was watching. But yeah, 1318 01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 2: the Packers. The Packers defense still hasn't been great. They're 1319 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 2: getting lucky in turnovers. Now they're getting lucky like a 1320 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,720 Speaker 2: turnovers red zone. Their thirty first the NFL since Week 1321 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 2: nine on defense on EPA per play if you remove turnovers. 1322 01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 2: So I think the Vikings goble to move the ball year, 1323 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,120 Speaker 2: but I think the Packers will be able to. Look 1324 01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 2: it's like Aaron Rodgers outdoors in a must win game 1325 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 2: team is rolling against his lucky Vikings team. They're not 1326 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 2: going to lose this game. I mean they could, but 1327 01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 2: I don't think they are. I'm not laying three and 1328 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:34,240 Speaker 2: a half. I took the money line. As I mentioned 1329 01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 2: earlier with Dallas on Thursday Night, the one. A couple 1330 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 2: of things of why I like this particular matchup. Now 1331 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 2: there's you want to also want to watch Yosh Nijman 1332 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 2: their their tackle who's been eighth and pass block win 1333 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,360 Speaker 2: right first and run buck win Rado tackles. This year, 1334 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 2: he practiced limited fashion night, which is big because Newman 1335 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 2: stinks to his backup. But Kayshawn Mixon, who's been who 1336 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 2: plays their slot now, and he's been the best returner 1337 01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 2: in the NFL. They went from the worst or turn 1338 01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 2: in the NFL or the best. He's not practicing today, 1339 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,840 Speaker 2: so that may matter. But the Packers, the reason their 1340 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:06,840 Speaker 2: defense is still bad is the run defense is still bad. 1341 01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 2: Their past defense is good. They're blitzing a lot and 1342 01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:13,440 Speaker 2: Cousins have been bad against the blitz this year. And 1343 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:15,960 Speaker 2: the Vikings can't run the ball. They cannot run the ball, 1344 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,400 Speaker 2: they can't run block. Since Week eight after they're bye, 1345 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 2: Vikings dead last the NFL and rushed success rate Cook 1346 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,599 Speaker 2: on the seasons only averaging three point eight yards per 1347 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:29,200 Speaker 2: Russian neutral situations and he's not even seeing many loaded boxes. 1348 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:32,479 Speaker 2: Their line is thirty second stuff rate, thirtieth in power 1349 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 2: success rate, bottom eight in line yards. So yeah, I 1350 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,599 Speaker 2: don't think they can really capitalize on the Packers' weaknesses. 1351 01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 2: I think Green Bay wins. This game line is a 1352 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:46,559 Speaker 2: bit inflated, which is why I took the one took 1353 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 2: the money on here with Dallas. But for what it's worth, 1354 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 2: the seven to eight Packers are favored over the twelve 1355 01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:57,680 Speaker 2: and three Vikings and twelve three Vikings six. If you 1356 01:08:57,720 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 2: look analytically, they should have about six wins maybe a 1357 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 2: six and nineteen plus five point differential eleven wins eleven 1358 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:07,720 Speaker 2: straight wins by one possession NFL record, But the seven 1359 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:09,400 Speaker 2: and eight Packers are favored over the twelve and three 1360 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,600 Speaker 2: Vikings just This will be the tenth time in the 1361 01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:15,800 Speaker 2: past twenty years shut out Evan Abrams for this that 1362 01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 2: a team under five hundred straight up will be favored 1363 01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:21,839 Speaker 2: over a team with an eighty percent plus win percentage 1364 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:25,800 Speaker 2: in December or later. One of those previous nine, by 1365 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,640 Speaker 2: the way, occurred with the Lions against the Vikings a 1366 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 2: few weeks ago when they won and covered the previous 1367 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,760 Speaker 2: nine times. This is these teams have been listed as 1368 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:37,559 Speaker 2: favorites nine and oh straight up eight ho to one 1369 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 2: against the spread. So yeah, I think the Packers get 1370 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:41,960 Speaker 2: it done, so I use them as a money online piece. 1371 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:43,240 Speaker 2: I wouldn't like three and a half. 1372 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:44,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, agree? All right? 1373 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,200 Speaker 5: That is going to wrap it up for the week. Seventeen. 1374 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 5: Action Network podcast presenter by Fandue.
