1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. 2 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 2: What it is up? Straight Fire Bay. It's me Jason McIntyre, 3 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: Straight Boyer for Friday, October thirtay, first Tapy Halloween. 4 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: Everybody. 5 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 2: Yes, I will be dressing up on the herd today. 6 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 2: Depending on when you listen to this, you might have 7 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: already seen me. So last year I went with my 8 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 2: staple outfit, which is a Cobra Kai member. It's so 9 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: easy headbanned a Cobra Kai outfit. It's a layup, you know, 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 2: and I get to shout a show off the guns. 11 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: This I can't. I wanted to run it back, but 12 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, let me change it up. So 13 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: I'm not going to tell you the outfit, but I 14 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 2: will give you a hint. It is timely and it's relevant, 15 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: and I borrowed one part of the outfit for my buddy, 16 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: the Laker season ticket holder. And I think you'll like it. 17 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 2: It's gonna be fun. I don't know if Coward will 18 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: like it. He does not know a couple of the 19 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: guys on staff. No, because we discussed it initially, I 20 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: was like, no, I'm not dressing up that's but wait, 21 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 2: why not? Why not? It's fun but should be a 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 2: good show. And the better part is I'm at that 23 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 2: stage and I don't know how much you guys care 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: about this of Halloween where the kids are like, yeah, 25 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 2: we we're good. We don't we don't need to dad, 26 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 2: we got this, And you know, I get it, but 27 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 2: I don't totally get it. I was a idiot, dumb 28 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: young guy who went and saw younger kids and was 29 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: like trying to steal candy. You know, we would do 30 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: dumb things. So I don't want that to have it 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: on my kids. And you have a boy and a 32 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: girl obviously worried about the girls. She's got her crew 33 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 2: and blah blah blah. But I so it's gonna be 34 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: an interesting Halloween at the vacatire household. I'm basically like, listen, 35 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 2: I will shadow you from a distance. I'll have a flashlight, 36 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: I'll hang with another dad. But what if there's not 37 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: another parent that wants to go and they're like, yeah, 38 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. I just don't know how I feel. 39 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: I know, I know, hovering parent, blah blah blah. Yeah, 40 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: we'll see She's it's gonna be tense, my son. I'm 41 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: not worried about he's got his he's got his act together. 42 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: That being said, now he's on he's in high school, 43 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: and now there's parties. And again I'm not I'm not 44 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: listening too closely to some of these guys talk a 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 2: lot of garbage. But when I hear freshman boys not 46 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 2: my son, say phrases like oh she was blackout drunk, 47 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: I'm like, come on, what what pliant? It is this 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 2: a ninth grader? Get in my head? I'm like, you're 49 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: not hanging out with that guy. I know, I know 50 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 2: you guys listen to this jamac you're crazy. But anyways, 51 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: that's Halloween. That's where I am. Also, you know where 52 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: else I am. I am excited about the Baltimore Ravens. 53 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,399 Speaker 2: I told you guys yesterday you listen to the pod. 54 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: I was like, what am I missing here? Why the 55 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: hell is this only seven and a half? Why isn't 56 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 2: this more? Does somebody know something? And then crazily enough, 57 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: it dipped to six and a half right before kickoff. 58 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: I'm like, what are what are people doing? And weren't 59 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: odd Space in NFL gambling now? Because the favorites are 60 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: just dominating now for the last few Thursdays, the dogs 61 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: have been barking, but last Sunday the favorites just rolled. 62 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: And they rolled on Monday night, Cheese over Washington. At 63 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: all these sharps, you know, sharps like to bet dogs, 64 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 2: and I get that dogs have value. The public wants 65 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 2: to bet favorites, so those lines are inflated. And it 66 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: was like, okay, Baltimore, Miami, let me not go soap 67 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: super heavy on Baltimore. But I put them in a 68 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: bunch of teasers down to one, one and a half 69 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 2: and I'm like, all right, we're fine. So you watch 70 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: the first half and you're like, all right, Baltimore looks okay, 71 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: not amazing. I see according to my stats here, they 72 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: had four first downs in the first half. It was 73 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: a little clunky, you know, it wasn't super sharp. They went, 74 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 2: let's go. They went three and out, yeah, three and out, 75 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: and then the Dolphins with a fumble and they go 76 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 2: four play seven yards touchdown, right, so you get the lead. 77 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: Then they go on a long touchdown drive. But after that, 78 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 2: all right, let's go for the knockout punch. They go 79 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: three and out, three and out, three and out halftime, 80 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: and I'm like, I don't know. That's just not like 81 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: a particularly sharp look. I didn't bet the second half, 82 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: but I was like, uh, but Miami's gonna hang around. 83 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: Miami did not hang around. Baltimore came out with two 84 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 2: touchdown drives to open the second half. Lamar found his 85 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: footing in his first game back, four touchdown passes eighteen 86 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 2: of twenty three. He was pretty sharp. He didn't do 87 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: a lot of running. Interestingly, five rushes fourteen yards. Now, 88 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: maybe this is just my untrained eye, but A it 89 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 2: didn't look like he wanted to run, and B he 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: didn't look as fast and elusive. On his longest carry, 91 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: he got tripped up, and you know, normally Lamar's like 92 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: high stepping and getting out of that and peeling off 93 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: fifty yard carries. Interestingly, I didn't see that. But again, 94 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 2: first game back, dip his toe in. I will say this, 95 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 2: the window's basically gone to bet the Ravens to win 96 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: the division. At this point, you have to bet them 97 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: to win the AFC. That's where the value would be 98 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 2: if you're a believer in this team. They do have 99 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: a diverse offense. I don't know, if you guys, how 100 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 2: much of the game you watched. It was kind of boring, 101 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: but three touchdown passes to tight ends. Zay Flowers looks 102 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 2: very good. He is shifty as hell. Bateman caught a touchdown. 103 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 2: They've got weapons. They don't have any stars on the outside. 104 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: But honestly, if you stack up the skill position players 105 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: of the Chiefs and Bills compared to the Ravens, like, 106 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: who is the best skill position player? Is Derrick Henry? 107 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: Is it Rashie Rice? Is it James Cook? I don't 108 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: But the bottom line is there is no real unbelievable 109 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 2: superstar Like I think Rashi Rice might be a one. 110 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: He looks good. 111 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 2: We'll see. I need more than you know. I don't 112 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: know seventeen games to know. But it was an interesting 113 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: performance from the Ravens, who kind of powered down in 114 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: the second half. And what was more impressive to me 115 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: was that Miami could do nothing. Oero for three in 116 00:05:54,920 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 2: the red zone. They had three turnovers, and you know, 117 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 2: at this point, I know everybody's saying, oh, yeah, fire, 118 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel, Guys, what is that gonna do? You know, 119 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: that's not doing anything. Who you're gonna bring it is 120 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: to coach them up for the rest of the season. 121 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: There's a long way to go. There's only nine games in. 122 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: You still got eight more games. That's a long season 123 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 2: to go. So I mean you could let McDaniel twist 124 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: in the wind. Maybe he wants to be let go 125 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: and go have Thanksgiving and a pleasant Christmas with his 126 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: family and not deal with this crap. They're a bad 127 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 2: football team. Now here's the interesting thing. The trade deadline's 128 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: coming up. Is there anyone on Miami that has value? 129 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 2: I mean, you'd say Jalen Waddle, but I don't necessarily 130 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: know that you want to give him up. You're not 131 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: gonna get a one in return? H chid, Like, is 132 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 2: there an appetite for him somewhere around the league? I mean, 133 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: do the contenders want a fast running back who you 134 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: know may or may not be a factor in the postseason. 135 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 2: I mean, his speed can surely do some things. But 136 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: I mean maybe the Chargers will be in interest. But like, 137 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: I don't really understand what what are you giving up 138 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 2: for a chance? So there isn't a ton of value 139 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 2: I think anywhere that that just shows how bad the 140 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,239 Speaker 2: roster is without Tyreek Hill. Holy hell, there's there's really 141 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: not a lot of anything here. You look on the 142 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball. Maybe somebody bites on Minka 143 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: Fitzpatrick in the secondary, but he's not having an amazing season. 144 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: He's fine, Like you. 145 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: Know, Chubb jude On. 146 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: Maybe they move off one of those veterans. 147 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: Uh. 148 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: Mimi just is really devoid of talent. And that win 149 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: over Atlanta last week was total fools. Gold as we knew, 150 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: clearly attributed to the Falcons starting Kirk Cousins, which unbelievably 151 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: I was not aware of. I mean, we knew Pennix 152 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: was touching go, but then when you found out it 153 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: was Cousins, You're like, oh wait ho. And the Drake 154 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: London stuff really pissed me off because that was like 155 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 2: off the radar. So ultimately, like really impressive game from 156 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens. I thought they were very solid, and 157 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 2: I guess the question is do you go ahead and 158 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 2: bet them to win the AFC? Do you feel comfortable 159 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: in that They faced JJ McCarthy next after an extended 160 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: little mini bi if you want to call it that, 161 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 2: with the Thursday, then they faced Dylan Gabriel or whoever 162 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: is starting for the Browns. Then it's the Jets, then 163 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: it's the Bengals. I think on a Thanksgiving night, which 164 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: normally would be a good game. Let's see here, what 165 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 2: day is Thanksgiving? Yes, Thanksgiving Night. The game is Bengals Ravens. 166 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 2: And that's one of those where if Lamar wants to 167 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: get back in the MVP mix after missing several games, 168 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: he'll need like five touchdowns, which is definitely going to 169 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 2: be in play because the Bengals defense, that holy hell 170 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: is abhorrent. And I'm just again, I don't love this team. 171 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: I just think it's kind of wide open. I know 172 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 2: everybody loves the Chiefs. Yeah, I'm not there. If the 173 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: Chiefs do beat the Bills, I'll be impressed. A lot 174 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: of the sharp betters seem to like Kate. I just 175 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: don't see how you get bet that. And it did 176 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 2: dip down to one, it was two to two and 177 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: a half. I think the values on Buffalo. 178 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 179 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: the nation.

I do quickly want 183 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: to touch on the NBA, because you guys know, I 184 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: love me some Wemby, and I am looking at odds 185 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: to bet the Spurs to wait for it win the championship, 186 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: and I know that's insane. Jason, what are you doing? 187 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: You're a moron. It's gonna be okaye, It probably will 188 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: be okac. I don't think they're great. Bucks win without Wemby. 189 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: Someone named Ryan Rollins went off. I don't know who 190 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: that is, but the Bucks got the win their four 191 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: and one. I'm sorry Bucks went without Yannis. They're now 192 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 2: four and one and I'm sure all of them will walk. 193 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 2: You do see, we are good. We're gonna be fine 194 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: without Yiannis. Okay, it's five games, guys, settle down. And 195 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: in the same breath of saying it's five games, settle down, 196 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 2: I will point to the Spurs who win and cover 197 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 2: against the Miami Heat. When min Yama was spectacular. He 198 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: had twenty seven eighteen, six assists, five blocks. I mean, guys, 199 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 2: he's I don't even I'm running out of adjectives to 200 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 2: describe him. They started champagne. Oh my, I didn't even 201 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 2: realize that. Vassal they hit fourteen threes. Castle is the 202 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: man remains the man. Miami's not even that good, but 203 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: the fact that the Spurs are winning every game covering. 204 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: How do you not like this team? I did bet 205 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 2: them to win the NBA Cup. I don't even know 206 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 2: when it is. I'm assuming the Spurs are going to 207 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: try some of the teams like like, I don't know 208 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 2: that Okac's going to care that much about the NBA Cup. 209 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: But really good odds like plus twenty six hundred or 210 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 2: something like that for the Spurs. Maybe this is five 211 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: games in fools gold. I don't know, guys, I know 212 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 2: they beat you know, Raptors are not gonna be good. 213 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 2: Nets are gonna stink. I don't think the Pelicans and 214 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: Mats are. 215 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: Going to be good. 216 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: But I'm a believer. They face the Suns this weekend, 217 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 2: and then they have the Lakers on Wednesday, and then 218 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 2: they step it up. Well it's unclear if Luca will 219 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 2: even be back for that, but at Lakers, then it's Rockets. Oh, 220 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: that's a good one on Amazon Prime. Then another game 221 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: against what's his face Zion Chicago. It looks like the Spurs. Yeah, 222 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: the Spurs are backloaded with good games in the second 223 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 2: half of the season when it matters. But I'm just 224 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: looking at this schedule look, they're gonna be on. It's 225 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 2: gonna be like eighteen and five or something crazy to 226 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: start the season. It's just not a daunting lineup to 227 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: start to start things. And I just love the cut 228 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 2: of Webben Yama's jip. This guy just plays his butt 229 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: off and would you have a guy like Castle defending 230 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 2: on the perimeter. It's just so easy to get excited 231 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: about them. I know, I gotta say, okay, see, yes, 232 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 2: they're six and oho. I think they cover the spread 233 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: against the Whiz. They were fifteen point favorites and they 234 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: won by nineteen. Yeah, easy cover, easy dub for the 235 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 2: OKC thunder. All right, without further ado, let's get to 236 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: best bets the NFL in college football. 237 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 238 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at foxsports Radio 239 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to 240 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: listen live. The only thing better than sitting on your 241 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: couch watching the games. He's making money while you do it. 242 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: Here's your best bet. All right. 243 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: I think it's probably easiest if I just kind of 244 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 2: buzzed through every game quickly. I think the biggest thing 245 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,719 Speaker 2: you need to know is so the Ravens were a 246 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: road favorite last night. There are seven road favorites on 247 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 2: Sunday seven. That is a massive number. I just obviously 248 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 2: you also have to keep in mind that favorites rolled 249 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 2: last week. So now you've got teams on the road 250 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: that are favored after favorites just roll. This is shaping 251 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 2: up as a bounce back weekend. The dogs should be barking. 252 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 2: That being said, that's the old way to look at things. 253 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 2: The new way is, hey, why don't I just look 254 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 2: at what's going on? And oh, by the way, a 255 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: lot of these teams that are dogs, they stink. Okay, 256 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: So we'll go through the Chicago Cincinnati. As soon as 257 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: I saw Jake Browning could start Joe Flacco fifty to fifty, 258 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: I hit Bears minus three. That being said, Joe Flacco 259 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 2: showed up at practice on Thursday with his spraining day 260 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: sea joint. He was, according to the practice report, limited 261 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: in practice. Folks. Again, after that Falcons Tobacco last week, 262 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 2: I don't know what to believe. The market is saying, Oh, 263 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 2: Flaco's probably gonna go. You know it's there, It's back 264 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: down to two and a half. Do I like the 265 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: Bears here? No? Of course not. But I don't like 266 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 2: Browning at all. And this is a thing I think 267 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 2: I touched on. So last week we saw teams going 268 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 2: to the by and if you stink and you're going 269 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: into the buy, you maybe mail it in. Well, team's 270 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: on a bye next week. The Bengals who stink, The 271 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 2: Cowboys who are still in the mix for a wild 272 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: card spot, the Titans, we'll get to them. They're terrible, 273 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 2: and then the Chiefs. Obviously they're good in a contender, 274 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: so you know you're gonna get effort from the Chiefs 275 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: and the Cowboys. Right. What do we make of the Bengals? 276 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: They're not very good. And if Jake Browni starts, I'm 277 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 2: just telling you that team was so deflated from Browning 278 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 2: that they traded in the division for Joe Flacco. Okay, 279 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: that's kind of sort of crazy. I don't know what 280 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 2: to make of this Bengals team. If Jake Browning starts, 281 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: I think you have to hit Chicago pretty hard. Remember, 282 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: a lot of people are running on this Bengals team. 283 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: The Jets ran all over them last week. They're not 284 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 2: fixing that run defense. Do they Let me see if 285 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: Trey Hendricks in practice because you're like, oh, oh, Trey 286 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: Henderson should be out there. Oh oh, he's not interesting. 287 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: He's supposedly trade bait ahead of the deadline. Now you 288 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: know Burrow's gonna be pissed if that happens. But Hendrickson 289 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: hasn't practiced this week, so like, what are we supposed 290 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 2: to make of that? No Hendrickson, it looks like they're 291 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,359 Speaker 2: gonna be down. Logan Wilson out with a calf. Reisner 292 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: is not practicing illness. I mean, if Flacco don't go, Like, 293 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: I don't like the Bears, but Caleb should have. This 294 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 2: should be a get right spot Ben Johnson against a 295 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 2: brutal I think the Bears are other side. Now. I 296 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: have a long list of teas in the contest because 297 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 2: I don't love anything. The Bears are down the list. 298 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: I will consider them, but you gotta wait on the injuries. 299 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 2: Vikings at Lions Detroit's off of by Vikings off the 300 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 2: Thursday night beat down in La JJ McCarthy's back Listen, 301 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 2: this is just it's crazy, guys. I don't know what 302 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 2: to make of this JJ McCarthy stuff. Somebody on the 303 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: Herd staff was trying to sell me on this J Mack. 304 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: Did you see that the last two weeks JJ McCarthy 305 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 2: was the emergency quarterback for the Vikings. How are you 306 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: going to be the emergency quarterback when you know Carson 307 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 2: Wentz has a busted laborhm and they still played Wentz 308 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 2: And so he goes into this big thing like, oh, 309 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: you know what this smells like? This smells like John Wolford, who, 310 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 2: by the way, the Vikings picked up to the practice 311 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: squad a couple of years ago with the Rams where 312 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: Golf was hurt. Wolford came in was pretty good. Then 313 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 2: there was the playoff game and they played Wolford because 314 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: they thought that he would give him the best chance 315 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: to wait even though Golf was healthy. And then within 316 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 2: like I don't know, two months or something, Golf was 317 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: traded to the Lions. So is this a sign that 318 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 2: they don't love McCarthy. And I don't know what to 319 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: make of that, Like, if he's the emergency quarterback and 320 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: you have your starter with the torn labram who's going 321 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: through it, why wouldn't you just put McCarthy out there. 322 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 2: I don't know what to make of that. So this 323 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 2: is a big number eight and a half nine. My 324 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 2: problem is a divisional matchup. I love the Lions and 325 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 2: a teaser, I think they're gonna be fine. I just 326 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,719 Speaker 2: I don't eight and a half or nine. I mean, 327 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: don't you think the Vikings can are gonna muster some 328 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 2: kind of courage with Floraes after it? Usually teams that 329 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 2: get their ass kicked as they did by the Chargers 330 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: bounce back. I mean, they've had a week to lick 331 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 2: their wounds. I'm looking at the injury report Jeff Akuda 332 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: can cost Otherwise the offensive lines starting to look healthy. 333 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: How's this Christian Darris South, the left tackle who's very 334 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: important to that team. Full practice Wednesday, did not practice Thursday. 335 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, if Darris iw ain't there to block 336 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 2: Aid and Hutchinson, there's no way I can go to 337 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: war with the Lions. So that's two dogs. I just 338 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 2: can't back. I can't touch the Bengals and I'm not 339 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 2: touching the Lions. Panthers, Packers, you think I'm going for 340 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers. You know, I know the dogs was 341 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: supposed to be barking. Panthers are gonna go on the 342 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 2: road now, could say, hey, man, Packers, this is a 343 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 2: dangerous leudown spot. They had the big game against the Steelers, 344 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 2: the revenge game. Next week they have the Eagles on deck, 345 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: possibly the two best teams in the NFC. Easy for 346 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 2: the Packers to overlook the Carolina Panthers and listen that 347 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: to me that you know, that's the kind of thing 348 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 2: I would look at. It is one of the many 349 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 2: data points. Hey man, the Packers could sleep walk through 350 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,239 Speaker 2: this game and win. But then you look and you're like, well, 351 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: let's see, is Bryce Young playing? Oh, Bryce Young's practicing, 352 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 2: Bryce Young is pack Oh wow, Oh so maybe there's 353 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 2: something here. But then you look at the offensive line 354 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 2: and you're like, oh, this offensive line's beat the hell up? 355 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: Is there any way they can hold up against Micah 356 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 2: Parsons in company. Now, it is an early game, and 357 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: this this is gonna be buried in the deck. Nobody's 358 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 2: gonna be watching this. Packers go out to a seventeen 359 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 2: to nothing lead. They still got a lot of work 360 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: to do, being favored by fourteenth and so like, as 361 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: if you're a survivor, this is a great pick if 362 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 2: you're in, uh, the contest. You know, I have on 363 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 2: my list Packers thirteen and a half. I like them 364 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: a lot. But if Bryce Young plays and it looks 365 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 2: like he's probably gonna be back, you know, do the 366 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 2: Packers are they feeling themselves after a big Sunday night win? 367 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 2: And do they just kind of mail it in here? 368 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 2: Like I don't know what the Panthers offensive line is 369 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 2: going to be, Like, I don't know if Chuwba Hubbard 370 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 2: is gonna lose stamps to Rico Dowdell. Who remember, for 371 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 2: a minute there was super hot. The Panthers just got 372 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 2: their doors blown off by the Buffalo Bills, and the 373 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 2: thought is, well, why wouldn't Green Bay do the same, 374 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 2: And it's because it's the same obvious thing. These teams 375 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 2: don't give max effort when they're facing terrible teams. We 376 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,719 Speaker 2: saw the Packers at the start of the season look awesome, incredible, 377 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 2: and they kind of slept walk through a bunch of wins, 378 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 2: including the loss of the Browns, and didn't cover anything. 379 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 2: There's no motivation against bad the dregs of the league. 380 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: You get by, you get the win. Who cares? We 381 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 2: don't care about the cover. And I just wonder if 382 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 2: Carolina keeps it close with the run game. You got 383 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 2: a low scoring game but Packers are gonna have to 384 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 2: struggle to get margin. Probably a game time decision for me. 385 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,239 Speaker 2: I I just if anything, I would make I just 386 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 2: having the stomach to bet Carolina early in the week, 387 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 2: not knowing if price Young is definitely back. I can't 388 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: do that. Chargers Titans, this is just feels like a layup, 389 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 2: right and I know everybody, well, you can't trust the 390 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 2: Chargers away from home they lost to Jackson Dart. Guys, guys, guys, 391 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 2: answer me this. Have the Tennessee Titans quit? Their coach 392 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 2: has been fired, not practicing this week. Calvin Ridley their 393 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 2: best offensive weapon, Jeffrey Simmons, their best defensive player and 394 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 2: leader on that team. Woulds the starting safety they have 395 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 2: a buy next week? Are the Titans looking to get 396 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: off some of these pieces? Jeffrey Simmons is probably the 397 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 2: number one d DT on the market. 398 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: Do the. 399 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 2: I don't know, San Francisco say hey, let's let's just 400 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: go get them. Let's give up a couple picks. Simmons 401 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 2: literally a wrecking ball can destroy game plans. You have 402 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 2: to game plan for him in the playoffs. I mean, 403 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 2: do they trade one or two of them? Calvin Ridley 404 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 2: could help a contender. So here's the thing. Derwin James 405 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 2: defensively was kind of dinged up. They were like, oh, 406 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: he may not go he's practicing in full If Derwin 407 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: James goes like, I feel great about that defense because 408 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: he's everywhere he's playing great. And I saw this touch 409 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 2: nine and a half late Thursday. Okay, my guess is 410 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 2: this is going to ten as soon as the practice 411 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: report comes in. If Jeffy Simmons don't practice on Friday, 412 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 2: didn't practice, all we can't plan and this will probably 413 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 2: be the Chargers just grind out a twenty seven to 414 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 2: nine victory. Vidal in company run for a bunch of 415 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 2: yards and the Chargers nothing sexy. They just advanced. Listen, 416 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 2: Tennessee's not good at all. I mean, I think they've 417 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 2: given up fourteen rushing touchdowns this season. What did Jim 418 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 2: Harball like to do more than anyone? Joe Alt's back, 419 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 2: I mean, Joe Alden so obviously a superstar game changer. Yeah, 420 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 2: I don't see any world where I could bet Tennessee. 421 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 2: Here to me, this is Chargers or pass. And I 422 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 2: know you're like, Jason, where's the dog? Well, where the 423 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: dog's at? Can you stomach the Atlanta Falcons. It's it's 424 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 2: it's the it's the sharpest dog on the board. Teams 425 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: that get smashed at home as a big favorite, okay, 426 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: and then go on the road the next week. That's 427 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 2: where you want that. That's the side you want to 428 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: be on, because you know the market's like, oh, nobody's 429 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 2: touching the Falcons this week. They're set in the line 430 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 2: knowing that the Patriots are one of the hottest teams 431 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 2: in the league. Drake May is the MVP. You can 432 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 2: feed off these narratives and know, oh my gosh, every 433 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 2: Joe Public's going to the window with Drake many Yet, 434 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 2: guess what the line is coming down? It was six 435 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 2: and a half, it's now five and a half. So 436 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 2: all of a sudden you've got people saying, hmmm, I 437 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 2: don't know, is Drake London gonna play? Looks like it 438 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: is Michael Penny's gonna play. Well, it certainly ain't gonna 439 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: be Kirk Cousins. I mean, this number is just obscene. 440 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: If the Patriots favored by five and a half over anyone, 441 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 2: I mean they're not. If you look at some of 442 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 2: these numbers, New England is not super high in Dvoa. 443 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 2: I know, like the media loves them. They want the 444 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 2: Patriots to be good again. Drake May is the second 445 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 2: coming of Josh Allen. But this is a good Falcons defense. 446 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 2: They just they were down four starters last week against 447 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 2: Miami and they just know showed. I saw a stat 448 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 2: from ta that the New Engle Patriots are horrible defending 449 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 2: running backs out of the backfield because they have slow 450 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 2: linebackers entered be Jean Robinson, get them the ball in space. 451 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 2: I mean, guys, Atlanta could win this outright. The problem 452 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: is Atlanta's as jecky and high as anybody in the 453 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: in the league get smashed by Carolina, right, remember that 454 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 2: one thirty nothing. I was on the side of Atlanta 455 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 2: beat the Bills at home. I walloped the Bills. Really 456 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 2: that game was not close. And lose at home to 457 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 2: lowly Miami. I mean, how bad does that lost look 458 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 2: after the Ravens win last night. So I think you, 459 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 2: if you could stomach it, I think this is a 460 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 2: side to go. Remember last week the Patriots were favored 461 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 2: by a touchdown against the Cleveland Browns. Now they were 462 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 2: six and a half five and a half against the Falcons. 463 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 2: Falcons are not as bad as the Browns. Falcons just 464 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 2: beat the Bills. They were a good team. They're going 465 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 2: to probably contend with Tampa for a playoff spot. Again, 466 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: it's tough to stomach when you watch it. 467 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: Now. 468 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 2: If Pennox is out, forget it. I ain't touched it. 469 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 2: But I kind of sort of like the Falcons here. 470 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: I don't know if I can have the guts to 471 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: pull it off in the contest, because when you go 472 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 2: four and one two of the last three weeks and 473 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 2: you're like top, I think it's top eight of fifty 474 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 2: at a fifty two hundred, I feel like I got 475 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 2: a shot. I just need a five and zero. Giants 476 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 2: Niners don't know what to make of this one. I 477 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 2: like san fran but something's telling me just be careful. 478 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 2: With everybody's favorite guy, Jackson Dart running around san Franz 479 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 2: stro willing to contain these running quarterbacks, I'm probably gonna 480 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 2: end up passing Colts Steelers. I know you're supposed to 481 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: play Mike Tomlin here, I cannot do it. None of 482 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 2: the trends say Mike Tomlin. The actual data for this 483 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 2: season says Colts. So for me, Colts are nothing. Broncos Texans. 484 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 2: I'm probably in the minority here. I like the Texans now, 485 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 2: I've liked the Texas before, they've let me down. I'll 486 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 2: never forget them. That Tampa Bay loss earlier this year 487 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 2: just just brutal. I just I don't know who scores here. 488 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 2: I do like I'm looking at an under in this game. 489 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 2: Oh no, wait, it's actually too low now to be 490 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 2: the under. Holy cow? Is that? 491 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: Wow? 492 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's at forty. I don't know where there's points. Okay, 493 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 2: Huston is going to struggle to block Denver right and 494 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 2: bo Nick struggles under pressure, and Huston is gonna get 495 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: after him. No, Patrick Surtan on the back end of 496 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: that defense. I think Nico Collins is back from the concussion. 497 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: To me, this feels like a seventeen to sixteen type game, 498 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 2: and I will go with Houston. I just think Denver 499 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: smashing the Cowboys the way they did and at altitude 500 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 2: at home. The vibe I get is everybody here likes Denver, 501 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 2: nobody likes Houston. So give me Houston. Let's see Jags Raiders. 502 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 2: I want to hit the Jags. They are three minus three. 503 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 2: It looks like minus two and a half minus three, 504 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 2: and then Thursday it practiced, Travis Hunter gets hurt and 505 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas is still questionable. He's on my fantasy team, 506 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 2: that guy, I'm not I'm not gonna bash him because 507 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: last year helped me win the title, so I got 508 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 2: him again this year and it either went to his 509 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 2: head or he's a sophomore slump. I just I can't 510 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 2: rock with the Raiders at all. Man. I did see 511 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 2: a stat that coming. If two teams face each other 512 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 2: coming off a bye, take the under. I don't. I 513 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: don't see how either side gets a stop here, so 514 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: I would look at the over. Actually, I mean it 515 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 2: doesn't look like Crosby's gonna play. But if Jacksonville's down 516 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: their top two receivers, how on earth are they scored? 517 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: So I don't know what to do with that game. 518 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 2: If anything, I will be backing the Jaguars. Yes, Rams, Saints, 519 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 2: We're gonna go Rams and survivor barring some last minute craziness. 520 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 2: It's funny because a lot of people burn Rams in 521 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: Week two against the Titans, so and if they don't 522 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 2: have Green Bay, I guess they gotta go Chargers. So 523 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: I like Rams here every which way. I'm sorry, it's Chalky. 524 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 2: I know I have to. I just have to go Rams, 525 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 2: and I'm sure they'll let me down. Pooka's back, Havevenstein's back. 526 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: They trade for McCreary. This team's serious now. The concern 527 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: is mc not mcveighff of buye as a positive. But 528 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 2: next week they have that rematch with the Niners, and 529 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,640 Speaker 2: you know they're out for blood after choking away that game. 530 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 2: It's so far that bad loss to mac Jones. So 531 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 2: do they overlook the lowly Saints who are starting Tyler 532 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 2: Shuck good Luck Shuck Chiefs Bills the game of the week. Well, 533 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 2: let me skip that and come back to in a second. 534 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 2: I'm on Seattle minus three. Seattle's off of bye, Washington's 535 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 2: off a short week. Jayden Daniels is hurt. I saw 536 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: Laramie Tunsil pop up on the injury report. Terry McLaurin 537 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 2: already ruled out. I mean, guys, this is not good. 538 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 2: I don't if it's starting to feel like a lost 539 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: season for Washington. If I sound like a broken record, 540 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 2: I know we've talked about this. I don't. I don't 541 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 2: like them. I like Seattle. Here, I saw Ertz is struggling. 542 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 2: Von Miller could just be veteran rest. They're just so 543 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 2: beat up. I think Seattle's tight ends take advantage of 544 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 2: Bobby Wagner. I don't know, man, Seattle looks like they 545 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 2: could be at full strength, although Julian Love is still 546 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 2: not practicing. That's not great. But they'll have Weatherspoon. I like. 547 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: I like Seattle here, guys, I do. I'm sorry. Anyways, 548 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 2: back to Bill's Chiefs. So everybody and their mom is 549 00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: on the Chiefs short week for Casey. Bill's not off 550 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 2: a by I mean, they beat Carolina. I kind of 551 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: have to go Buffalo here. So obviously the Josh Allen 552 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 2: running stat, you know, he runs in games that matter more. 553 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 2: He ran fourteen times against the Ravens in the opener. 554 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 2: Has it sniffed that all season? Did run nine times 555 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 2: against the Patriots in a game they had to win. 556 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: They didn't win it. They're at home, Kansas City against 557 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 2: short week. I know the Chiefs, you know this is 558 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 2: going to be a max effort, but is it really? 559 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: They know they're gonna face these guys in the playoffs 560 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: and they own them in the playoffs. Meanwhile, Buffalo is 561 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 2: highly motivated after that tough loss in the AFC title game. 562 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 2: My guess is that this is a great game. Whoever 563 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 2: as the ball last wins, and I will give it 564 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 2: to Buffalo. I know that they're not going to really 565 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 2: get stops, but I'll just I think I mentioned this yesterday. 566 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: Look at who the Chiefs have beat. Guys, again, we 567 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 2: can get excited about the Detroit win. Okay, yay, what 568 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: about the Jacksonville loss on the road. The Detroit win 569 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: was at home. They own the road. Lose to Jacksonville. 570 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about the win over the Raiders. 571 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: I don't care about the Washington win. They haven't looked 572 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 2: good on the road away from home, and I know 573 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 2: that they were a different team with Rice, and obviously 574 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 2: they got worthy. Obviously the Chiefs are good. I'm not 575 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: besmirching them. I just give me Buffalo not a significant play. 576 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 2: It's not gonna be in the contest, but contests for 577 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: me looking like Seahawks Rams, oh my gosh, Packers, Falcons, 578 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 2: Oh dear, this is gonna be struggle. Anyways. I've gone 579 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 2: long on the gambling, but you could tell I love 580 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 2: this stuff and I had a good week last week, 581 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: so I'm feeling myself. See you Monday.
