Speaker 2: All right, I predicted last week the league would have
Speaker 2: a separation. Best quarterbacks would win Week six going forward
Speaker 2: in most cases, and the best quarterbacks last week went
Speaker 2: fourteen and er I went three and one on my picks.
Speaker 2: I had the Jets with the points, but the Bills winning.
Speaker 2: I just needed the Jets to make an occasional field goal.
Speaker 2: Is that too much to ask? The Action Network CEO
Speaker 2: Chad Milman, my friend. All odds provided by DraftKings.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I always feel like defensive players get hurt statistically more
Speaker 2: often than offensive players. That's where more the violences. Defenses
Speaker 2: get weaker over time. Quarterbacks pull away from the league,
Speaker 2: and once again, I think this is the second strongest
Speaker 2: week I think I've seen so far this year, so
Speaker 2: I'm excited about this. I think there's clear distinction in
Speaker 2: some of these games, and as you know, I don't
Speaker 2: have to like a team to like them for a week.
Speaker 2: I don't like the Jaguars, but I think the staff
Speaker 2: is fighting for its life. It's also number five. You
Speaker 2: know I'm into number five. I'm sorry, I know sevens.
Speaker 2: The lucky number five is mine a team that regularly
Speaker 2: plays in London, a New England team that's limited and
Speaker 2: actually Trevor Lawrence has not played poorly the last couple
Speaker 2: of weeks. If it's five, I take the favorite. Last
Speaker 2: week four and five the Packers was my favorite bet.
Speaker 2: The game was over eight minutes in probably not sharp,
Speaker 2: but I love it. Sharper square.
Speaker 1: I feel like you're playing some kind of game of
Speaker 1: numerology and an astrolig and like I don't like don't
Speaker 1: I don't like bad quarterbacks. I like good quarterbacks. I
Speaker 1: like the number five. I don't sign don't like the
Speaker 1: number seven when the zodiac sign says mercury. Because in retrograde,
Speaker 1: I'm definitely going with the team from Jacksonville. If they're
Speaker 1: playing in London. Yes, this actually is the sharp side,
Speaker 1: and it's because some of what you said, but it's
Speaker 1: also the Jags have been in London favorite historically. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thirty five and ten in London, I mean the just
Speaker 1: winning outright, thirty five and ten in London, some like
Speaker 1: thirty and fifteen against the spread. It's like it's the
Speaker 1: right side. It's the nominally better team in a more
Speaker 1: desperate situation. So yes, it's I mean most wise, guys
Speaker 1: are like, I'm not really planning I even watching this game.
Speaker 1: I'm going to sleep in. But if they're gonna bet,
Speaker 1: they're gonna bet the Jaguars. You just the Jets. And
Speaker 1: it made me think of a funny story because that
Speaker 1: game was so disgusting. The night before the game, if
Speaker 1: you were betting the Giants at plus three and a half,
Speaker 1: was also terrible because they were winning. They had won
Speaker 1: that game like they were the better team. They had
Speaker 1: Stemy Joe Burrow, they missed field goals. At the end
Speaker 1: of the game. It was clear they were going to
Speaker 1: lose because something funky was going to happen. The Bengals
Speaker 1: weren't just going to lay down at ten to seven.
Speaker 1: They were going to do something that sort of recapped
Speaker 1: the Giants. I'm watching this game, and I feel like
Speaker 1: you'll appreciate this. It's eleven o'clock at night. I'm watching
Speaker 1: the game in bed. My wife is sent me, sleeping
Speaker 1: next to me, and she starts she says something to me,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I can't understand what you're saying. What
Speaker 1: are you saying? And she starts talking to me about
Speaker 1: something that has nothing to do with anything, that is
Speaker 1: a total non sequit or to the day, the weekend, everything,
Speaker 1: And I go, I can we just not talk about
Speaker 1: this right now, like we don't need to have this
Speaker 1: conversation in this second. She goes, that's fine. I understand.
Speaker 1: My feeling right now is you're probably going to lose
Speaker 1: this game and you're going to wake up in the
Speaker 1: morning and people are on Twitter. I'm just going to
Speaker 1: tell you you're stupid. And then she rolled over and
Speaker 1: she went back to bed. That's what they do, by
Speaker 1: the way. She was right, Yeah, I felt like you
Speaker 1: would appreciate every single element to that.
Speaker 2: So that was one of my blazing five picks, and
Speaker 2: for the first or second time in my career, I
Speaker 2: pulled it off. The blazing five, when Malik Neighbors was
Speaker 2: not available, I pulled it out. I almost inserted the Bears.
Speaker 2: My staff knew I loved that game. I didn't, so
Speaker 2: I finished three and one. Here's my favorite pick of
Speaker 2: the week, and it again. You I have a rule.
Speaker 2: When a good team plays a perfect game and it's
Speaker 2: the game of the week and it's flawless pro college,
Speaker 2: you don't duplicate that. We've seen that multiple times this year.
Speaker 2: Minnesota off of by Detroit off the perfect football game,
Speaker 2: No thank you. I'll lay the points Vikings now minus
Speaker 2: one one and a half sharper square.
Speaker 1: So it's square. What's really interesting here is and you
Speaker 1: know me and me and my co host Salmon Hunter
Speaker 1: talked about this on the Favorites. He's a professional better
Speaker 1: and a lot of times what professional betters do, they
Speaker 1: will manipulate the market. So this game was at Minnesota
Speaker 1: minus one, minus one and a half or during the
Speaker 1: week it went up to two, it went up to
Speaker 1: two and a half, and then as soon as it
Speaker 1: got to two and a half, the professional betters started
Speaker 1: betting Detroit again. It went back down to two, it
Speaker 1: went back down to one and a half. So there's
Speaker 1: a philosophy. There's a theory right now that the professional
Speaker 1: betters early in the week were betting small amounts of
Speaker 1: money to bet this game up a little bit so
Speaker 1: they could come in later in the week when the
Speaker 1: books take bigger dollar amounts and bet the Detroit Lions
Speaker 1: much much heavier. Right, The Lions, to me, are the
Speaker 1: right side. I think there's a difference between teams that
Speaker 1: are playing perfect games and teams that are fundamentally as
Speaker 1: close to perf as you can get. And I like
Speaker 1: to bet looking inside out. I like to bet offensive
Speaker 1: line first, and the offensive line for the Detroit Lions
Speaker 1: is just dominant. They are. And I think the past
Speaker 1: few weeks, and we talked about this last week with
Speaker 1: the Lions and the Cowboys, they have figured out how
Speaker 1: to play physical, violent football. They've gotten out of the
Speaker 1: way of sort of trying to figure out if Jared
Speaker 1: Goff going to win its the game. No, the offensive
Speaker 1: line is going to wins the game. Running the ball
Speaker 1: is going to win us the game. Jared Goff will
Speaker 1: then perform off of those situations that we have set
Speaker 1: up for him. So offensively, I think this is a
Speaker 1: much better team. And I do think Jared Goff and
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson will know how to scheme against Brian Flores,
Speaker 1: whose defense has been great, and the offensive line will
Speaker 1: protect against the pass rush that Flores has been great
Speaker 1: at generating. The worst unit on this field is going
Speaker 1: to be the Vikings offense. So if there is any
Speaker 1: diminished performance from the Lions because of Aden Hutchinson, I
Speaker 1: do think it's somewhat mitigated by the fact they're not
Speaker 1: playing a lights out offense and we're all looking to
Speaker 1: sell the Vikings. We're trying to figure it out, right,
Speaker 1: when are we going to sell the Vikings? A lot
Speaker 1: of wise guys think this is the week.
Speaker 2: Okay, I on Monday on the Herd on FS one
Speaker 2: and iHeartRadio, I said I'm taking the Rams at five.
Speaker 2: The line will move up dramatically. It's the rare mistake
Speaker 2: by Vegas McVeigh Stafford off of buy. They're getting healthier.
Speaker 2: The Raiders made a true trade for getting rid of
Speaker 2: Devonte Adams, so it makes it even tastier. But I
Speaker 2: think Devonte Adams leaving sends a real message. The Max
Speaker 2: Crosby rumors don't help. They're saying he won't be traded.
Speaker 2: But it's not a great locker room right now, and
Speaker 2: the Raiders are not a team that needs to win
Speaker 2: because they're not going to. It's a distracted team with
Speaker 2: bad mojo. The Rams now need to go on a street.
Speaker 2: They're healthier, better coach, better quarterback. In fact, it's the
Speaker 2: biggest coach quarterback mismatch on the board this week. I
Speaker 2: have it at minus five sharper square.
Speaker 1: If you have it at five, that is incredible and
Speaker 1: it's sharp, and you should hold on to that like
Speaker 1: it's a cuddly teddy bear, because that line does not
Speaker 1: exist like it's at six and a half in most places.
Speaker 1: So if you can get a five, or if you
Speaker 1: have a five, if you can book a five, take
Speaker 1: the five at six and a half. It's not a
Speaker 1: number that I would want to really lean into for
Speaker 1: the Rams. The truth is, if at six and a half,
Speaker 1: I might even lean Raiders. I agree with you about
Speaker 1: Stafford and McVeigh. Nobody really trusts Aidan O'Connell. But the
Speaker 1: line bumped up for two reasons. One expectation that Cooper
Speaker 1: Cup might come back. They did think he could come
Speaker 1: back in week seven, and because the Raiders got blown
Speaker 1: out by the Steelers. But if you look at that
Speaker 1: box score, that game was close. It was seven to
Speaker 1: six at the end of the first half. It was
Speaker 1: twelve seven when and then three consecutive series is fluky.
Speaker 1: Things happened to give the Steelers a huge lead, and
Speaker 1: even then the Raiders had opportunities to come back, and
Speaker 1: they were called back for penalties. They fumbled on the
Speaker 1: one yard line after they had scored a touchdown that
Speaker 1: was called back. So the game was closer than the
Speaker 1: score of peer. So I think six and a half
Speaker 1: is too much. Seattle plus a field goal and Atlanta
Speaker 1: is interesting. The Seahawks are getting healthy. I know you
Speaker 1: have a luck rating, and the Saints were called unlucky.
Speaker 1: I do think Atlanta's had a few breaks go their
Speaker 1: way and they're a tad overvalued. I think they win
Speaker 1: their division, but I actually think even the game against
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay that they won in overtime, I kind of
Speaker 1: felt most of the game Tampa was better and has
Speaker 1: a higher ceiling. I kind of like Seattle in the spot.
Speaker 1: They've been a funky mess defensively and you think they're
Speaker 1: not very good. Now they're finally getting their best defenders
Speaker 1: back and Gino Smith. Atlanta has no pass rush. They
Speaker 1: have really good receivers. I like Seattle in the points
Speaker 1: sharper square ish at two and a half, the wise
Speaker 1: guys are playing the Falcons. At three, they might play Seattle,
Speaker 1: they won't play Atlanta. They were kind of hoping it
Speaker 1: would get to three and a half so they could
Speaker 1: play Atlanta if they like Seattle. It's because of everything
Speaker 1: you just said to getting a little bit healthier. Atlanta
Speaker 1: can generate a pass rush. The Falcons could just as
Speaker 1: easily be zero to six right now, right And we
Speaker 1: talked about this last week. The games they have won.
Speaker 1: Three games that they won, they had a five percent
Speaker 1: chance to win those games, sometimes with less than thirty
Speaker 1: seconds left, and they still won those games. So there
Speaker 1: has been a lot of sort of luck involved in
Speaker 1: their season so far. So that is due. They are
Speaker 1: due for aggression there, even last week against the Panthers,
Speaker 1: like until Andy Dalton threw that pick yes right into
Speaker 1: his territory and then the Falcons went on an e
Speaker 1: four yard drive. The Panthers were running all over them,
Speaker 1: and they had a chance to be very close in
Speaker 1: that game, if not win it out right, So it's
Speaker 1: a it's a This is a number play entirely two
Speaker 1: and a half Atlanta three or more Seattle Okay.
Speaker 2: One of my favorite bets of the week, and it
Speaker 2: was before Devonte Adams. I'll take the Jets minus one
Speaker 2: and a half. The Steelers are a mess. They don't
Speaker 2: even know who their quarterback is. I think the Jets
Speaker 2: are an excellent two and four team if they could
Speaker 2: kick field goals.
Speaker 1: Think about this.
Speaker 2: If it wasn't for Taylor rap making two remarkable plays
Speaker 2: at safety jarring the ball loose, and if it wasn't
Speaker 2: for Tarron Johnson making honestly and ed Reid level interception
Speaker 2: like one of the great plays of the year, Jets
Speaker 2: win that game. Aaron played well, they ran the ball.
Speaker 2: They had seventy two percent motion twenty five percent with
Speaker 2: Mat Hackett the week before. I think the Jets are
Speaker 2: a really really un valued two four team. Their high
Speaker 2: profile the game is stand alone. You think they're no good.
Speaker 2: They really should have beaten the Bills. Sharper square totally sharp.
Speaker 2: They like it for everything you just said. The reason
Speaker 2: they really like it.
Speaker 1: Is because the indications are Russell Wilson will be the
Speaker 1: starting quarterback and you can't find anybody who really understands
Speaker 1: the logic in that call, unless it's just Mike Tomlin
Speaker 1: living up to a promise that he gave to Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson that he would be a starting quarterback, he really
Speaker 1: shouldn't be. And now you're getting Russell Wilson at a
Speaker 1: time where they've already lost their right guard, James Daniels,
Speaker 1: who was graded as the best guard in the NFL
Speaker 1: before his achilles was injured, and then last week they
Speaker 1: lost Zach Fraser, who was greater as the fourth best
Speaker 1: center according to Pro Football Focus in the NFL, which
Speaker 1: is one of the reasons why their running game had
Speaker 1: been so powerful and they could get away with justin
Speaker 1: fields not being very good. So now you're getting rid
Speaker 1: of two of the best offensive linemen in the NFL.
Speaker 1: That is the strength of your team, and you're putting
Speaker 1: in a quarterback who is not nearly as mobile, yet
Speaker 1: he's going to have more pressure because the strength of
Speaker 1: the Jets defense is the interior of their defensive line.
Speaker 1: So forget about Aaron Rodgers, forget about DeVante Adams. The
Speaker 1: reason why professional betters are leaning the Jets is because
Speaker 1: of those interior factors. And again those are the things
Speaker 1: that don't get as discussed in sort of the larger platforms.
Speaker 1: But that's what the betters are looking at. It's what's
Speaker 1: happening at the center of the Steelers line and who
Speaker 1: the quarterback is going to be much more than Devanta Adams.
Speaker 1: And you've seen this number go up even though the
Speaker 1: majority of the bets have actually come in on the Steelers,
Speaker 1: but the money the professionals have come in on the Jets.
Speaker 2: So I never bet against Lamar Jackson in the NFC,
Speaker 2: but at three and a half points, I do like
Speaker 2: Tampa at home. I think Tampa may be the most
Speaker 2: underrated team in the league. I mean Baker Mayfield, he'll
Speaker 2: give Little Wiggle fourteen of us fifteen touchdowns from the pocket.
Speaker 2: He and Chris Godwin are humming. They have a three
Speaker 2: pronged run game, Tucker, Bucky, Irving White like three legitimate
Speaker 2: running backs. And that is a team that even in
Speaker 2: games they've lost, you look up and think, oh, this
Speaker 2: this is probably the better team. If I get the hook,
Speaker 2: I'm taking Tampa here. Also, Ravens have been back to
Speaker 2: back very emotional games. I think you know they always
Speaker 2: beat the NFC, but sharper square, I'd go I'd go
Speaker 2: the hook in Tampa.
Speaker 1: One hundred percent sharp and this was this line opened
Speaker 1: at four and a half. What's really interesting is you
Speaker 1: talked about sort of the performance of the public last
Speaker 1: week by saying, betting on the better quarterback. Right, last week,
Speaker 1: the public went ten three and one. The public in
Speaker 1: the five weeks prior had had the worst start of
Speaker 1: the season it had ever had. And just for clarity,
Speaker 1: when I talk about the public, I mean amateur betters
Speaker 1: who tend to bet favorites and tend to bet the
Speaker 1: favorites to cover. Right, So you're talking about teams like
Speaker 1: the Ravens or the Chiefs or you know, in this
Speaker 1: case last week, the Lions. Normally the public does not win.
Speaker 1: So the public is all over the Ravens this week.
Speaker 1: And when that happens, bookmakers, when the public really cashes in,
Speaker 1: bookmakers know amateur betters are fat and happy. They're going
Speaker 1: to take the money they won the week before. They
Speaker 1: are going to go to the sports book. They are
Speaker 1: going to bet the favorites again because hey, I just
Speaker 1: want how hard can this be? I just won betting
Speaker 1: the Ravens to win by a touchdown against the Commanders,
Speaker 1: and they did it. So now they're going to come
Speaker 1: back and you can see, like the Bucks game, it
Speaker 1: opened at four and a half, it immediately got that
Speaker 1: down to three and a half. That's because the wise
Speaker 1: guys came in on the Bucks and they still like
Speaker 1: the Bucks. Baker's the key here. What Baker can do
Speaker 1: thrown across the middle to god Win and Mike Evans
Speaker 1: hope because he did have a little bit of a
Speaker 1: soft tissue injury and so there is some concern he
Speaker 1: might not play, but assuming he will, what Baker can
Speaker 1: do across the field in middle of the field against
Speaker 1: a coverage unit in the Ravens that is bottom third
Speaker 1: in the league and a pass defense that is giving
Speaker 1: up the second most passing yards per game in the NFL.
Speaker 1: The only team horse is the Jaguars. This is a
Speaker 1: recipe for Baker to keep this game close. Or Colin,
Speaker 1: it's a recipe for Baker to break our heart with
Speaker 1: an interception when the team is down by ten and
Speaker 1: we need him to score a touchdown to cover the
Speaker 1: back door.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's done both. Let's talk about something really really important.
Speaker 2: If you're ever injured, check out Morgan and Morgan. It's
Speaker 2: America's largest injury law firm and they are there for you.
Speaker 2: Over one hundred offices nationwide. Think about that, more than
Speaker 2: one thousand lawyers with over twenty billion. That's a B
Speaker 2: twenty billion dollars recovered for over five hundred thousand clients.
Speaker 2: Things happen in life unexpectedly. Submitting an injury claim with
Speaker 2: Morgan and Morgan is really really easy. Like winning in
Speaker 2: the NFL is hard. We know that quarterbacking in the
Speaker 2: NFL is hard, submitting a claim is easy. You're ever injured,
Speaker 2: check out Morgan and Morgan. Their fee is free unless
Speaker 2: they win. For more information, go to for the people
Speaker 2: dot com, slash Colin or dial pound law from your
Speaker 2: cell phone. Pretty easy. That's for the people dot com
Speaker 2: slash Colin or pound law pound five to nine from
Speaker 2: your cell Morgan and Morgan has a proven track record
Speaker 2: of fighting for you to get a full and fair
Speaker 2: compensation if there's an unexpected accident in your life. This
Speaker 2: is a paid advertisement. There's always a game. I want
Speaker 2: your I feel mildly interested, but I want your conviction
Speaker 2: and your insight. The last the only time the Texans
Speaker 2: have really played this year was when they traveled north
Speaker 2: and face Minnesota and it was a lot of Brian
Speaker 2: Flores and c. J. Stroud acknowledging I don't even know
Speaker 2: what I saw. I like Green Bay, I've never loved
Speaker 2: their defense. Texans getting three. I've got Joe Mixon back
Speaker 2: a run component. I want your opinion on this, Like
Speaker 2: it's telling me to bet Texans, but I think Jordan
Speaker 2: Love is such a special player. But Demiko Ryans could
Speaker 2: do a Brian Flores to Jordan Love like Flores did
Speaker 2: to C. J. Stroud. Tell me that Texans is the
Speaker 2: right side.
Speaker 1: It's not. This is one of those number plays. There's
Speaker 1: plenty of places where you can get the Packers at
Speaker 1: minus two and a half, and the wise guys are
Speaker 1: betting the Packers at two and a half. And what
Speaker 1: really tells you the wise guys are betting the Packers
Speaker 1: at two and a half is the way the money
Speaker 1: is split. Again, public is all over the Texas. You
Speaker 1: can see that the money is coming in on the Packers,
Speaker 1: and that's what's fascinating here. So it's a really hard game,
Speaker 1: and there's been a huge debate in the professional betting
Speaker 1: community about which is the right side. But if you're
Speaker 1: getting the Packers at two and a half, people want
Speaker 1: to make that The professionals want to make that bet.
Speaker 2: What's the game I'm missing? It's usually egregiously uncomfortable to watch.
Speaker 2: It's a corner of a corner TV game. What is it?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm a little surprised we didn't talk about the
Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Niners at all.
Speaker 2: I will not bet against Andy Reid off of bye.
Speaker 2: My heart tells me the Niners are eventually going to
Speaker 2: win one of these games. Brock Purty is actually today
Speaker 2: playing better than Mahomes, So my gut is the Niners
Speaker 2: are the side. But betting against Andy Reid off a
Speaker 2: bye is like these days betting against Otani with men
Speaker 2: on base. I'm not interested.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not only that, betting against Patrick Mahomes as an underdog.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's like ten and three or something.
Speaker 1: It's it's ridiculous. So I'm glad. I'm glad because the
Speaker 1: answer would be the there is no answer, and it's
Speaker 1: what you just said. It's a heart and a head game.
Speaker 1: In your head, it's like the Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 1: In your head, the Niners have the better roster. The
Speaker 1: Niners should win this game outright, But Patrick Mahomes some
Speaker 1: like you make your own luck, right, even this year,
Speaker 1: they've been lucky in so many spots, and you have
Speaker 1: to say to yourself, of course this is going to end.
Speaker 1: It can't continue to be this way. But it's Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes who finds a way to get out of the pocket,
Speaker 1: find Travis Kelcey in his zone. When Travis Kelcey hasn't
Speaker 1: caught two passes the entire game. All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: the last drive they need a field goal, they're driving
Speaker 1: down the field, they get the field goal. Quirky things happen.
Speaker 1: So it's a really hard game, Like people don't want
Speaker 1: to really invest in this game. I mean I almost
Speaker 1: like I'm sick to my stomach telling you this. But
Speaker 1: the Wise guys are all over the browns now plum. Yeah,
Speaker 1: plus five and a half against the Bengals. Oh, I know,
Speaker 1: I know, Oh Crows. I mean they just traded to
Speaker 1: Marii Cooper. Well, look, so what happened was this line
Speaker 1: was at five and a half and the Wise guys
Speaker 1: were already trending towards the Brown.
Speaker 2: Now this is at Cleveland getting five and a half
Speaker 2: against Cincinnati and burrough.
Speaker 1: Yes, and so when Mark Cooper was traded Tuesday afternoon,
Speaker 1: this line immediately shot up to six and a half.
Speaker 1: Do you know who's not worth a point against the
Speaker 1: point spread? Amari Cooper. Do you know who else isn't
Speaker 1: worth a point against the point spread? Aiden Hutchinson. There
Speaker 1: is nobody in the NFL who is worth a point
Speaker 1: against this point spread unless it's a quarterback. Anyone else
Speaker 1: is a half a point. That's it, Amari Cooper. The
Speaker 1: Browns should get points back for trading Amari Cooper. That's
Speaker 1: how the wise guys look at this. So they bought
Speaker 1: the Browns at six and a half, they bought the
Speaker 1: Browns again at six. It's back down to five and
Speaker 1: a half. There's a lot of stuff that they like
Speaker 1: about betting the Browns. The Browns have not had an
Speaker 1: offensive line that was healthy this entire year. This weekend,
Speaker 1: they should be getting Jack Conklin back. That's huge for
Speaker 1: their offensive line. Nick Chubb should be back. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying Nick Chubb makes them a much more superior team,
Speaker 1: but it does give them an opportunity to start playing
Speaker 1: a little bit more like Kevin Stefanski wants to play
Speaker 1: these games and take the ball out of de Shaun
Speaker 1: Watson's hands. At the very least, maybe Deshaun Watson won't
Speaker 1: be staring at the pass rush because he won't be
Speaker 1: so afraid because Jack Conklin is playing again. So I
Speaker 1: do like that that is happening. There's some good health
Speaker 1: things on the offense side of the ball, and their
Speaker 1: defense is getting healthier too. And you got a top
Speaker 1: five pass rush defense, you got Miles Garrett in a
Speaker 1: divisional game. In this situation with the Bengals team, that
Speaker 1: still isn't that good, right? They shouldn't be a five
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. It's terrible. You don't want
Speaker 1: to bet the bad quarterback against one of the best quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: I'm not asking you to do it. I'm just telling
Speaker 1: you what the professionals are doing.
Speaker 2: So are you saying the wise guys like Kansas City
Speaker 2: plus one and a half against San Francisco completely split?
Speaker 1: It is like you have the guys who are just
Speaker 1: like you who refuse to bet against Patrick Mahomes. In fact,
Speaker 1: they would rather take their shot and bet on Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: They don't want to be watching the end of the
Speaker 1: game and seeing Patrick Mahomes have the ball and know
Speaker 1: they should have bet on him and have not bet
Speaker 1: on him. But but what's been interesting is the Chiefs
Speaker 1: are a very public road underdog that is not a
Speaker 1: great situation to be on the side of. If you're
Speaker 1: a professional, if you're a better right, you want to
Speaker 1: be against the public in most situations. This number has
Speaker 1: been kind of staying at one and a half, which
Speaker 1: tells you that the wise guys have been coming in
Speaker 1: in on the Niners. So if they're closing their eyes
Speaker 1: looking at rosters, looking at data, they're betting the Niners.
Speaker 1: If they're eyes wide open seeing who's on the field,
Speaker 1: they're betting the Chiefs.
