Did you survive. 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: I know that you're not you're not you do sports radio, 26 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: but you're a renaissance man. Yes, this is a little hard, 27 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: oh sports, this penny versus the penny, Right, it is 28 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: it is, you know, it's it's almost just enough Ben 29 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: where I enjoy it. Still, it's not your jam. And 30 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: I appreciate that you're leaving your comfort zone. Yes, and 31 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: I don't. I very rarely leave my comfort and my 32 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: wife forces me to do that from time with them. 33 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: But you you know you've met her. But I'm usually 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: in my own bubble like most people. And so I 35 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: appreciate that you've come over from the anime. And someday, 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: when you become officially the big star of anime, you 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: can tell in your story when you're being interviewed on 38 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: television and whatnot and and big internet shows, you can say, well, 39 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 1: you know, at one point before I became who I am. 40 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: I actually had to do a cheesy gambling show with 41 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: this overnight guy and I I so anyway, But but 42 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: here it is. So Week eleven, we had fourteen games 43 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: on the card and I did not have a great 44 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: feel for the card. I thought it was all right. 45 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: I didn't think it was it was gonna go my 46 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: way that well. I thought I'd be a middling week, 47 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: but I actually ended up with the highest I believe 48 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm correct on this, the highest winning percentage I've had 49 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: all season and any one we got. I was ten 50 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: and four against the spread last week. That's a seven 51 00:02:55,240 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: four teen winning percentage. So another good week and I'm 52 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: still waiting for the bottom to fall out. The worst 53 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: week I've had is Week two. That was the only 54 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: losing week that we had. Every other week I've been 55 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: ahead of five, and usually way ahead of five. And 56 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: the penny you representing the penny, Well, no, it's actually 57 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: not been the penny for the first time since I 58 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: want to go back here, since Week six, the penny 59 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: had a winning record. Let's go, yeah, there you go. 60 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: We both had winning records. Yes, the penny was nine 61 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: and five, so that no. But last the week before 62 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: the penny went five and nine. That job by honest 63 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: abe there to go five and nine the week prior, 64 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: so the Pennies first winning weeks since way back in 65 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: week number six. As we said, so the overall records. Now, 66 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: if you look at your audio device you're listening to, 67 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: you can see the chiron right there the graphic. Uh 68 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: and there I am nine and five. That is a 69 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: six sixteen winning percentage documented on the podcast. The penny 70 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: still under five hundred? Will the penny get over five 71 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: hundred this week? And a few weeks back the penny 72 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: was exactly five hundred, which is where it should be, 73 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: where it should be penny eight six and three. That's 74 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: a four seventy six winning percentage. And so that's how 75 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: we have done. I've got I've got a pretty sizeable lead, 76 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: but there's a lot of games to go. There's a 77 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: lot of time to give it all back the second half. 78 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: But I'm not trying to get back. I'm gonna destroy 79 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: the penny. I'm gonna take that penny. I'm gonna put 80 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: it on the train tracks and I'm gonna wait for 81 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: the train to run by and just flatten that penny. 82 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: Savage savage man, all right, let's get started with the 83 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: actual games here alex as the Voice of the Penny. 84 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: First game up Baltimore seven and three at Jacksonville three 85 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: and seven. It's on CBS. Andrew Catalan and James Lofton 86 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: have a call. Ravens opened a three and a half 87 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: point favorite. They were favored by four light rain temper 88 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: tears in the low seventies in Jacksonville for this game. 89 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: Some of the numbers here they handle almost on Jacksonville. 90 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: Baltimore is four and one against the spread on the 91 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: road this season. Their nineteen eight and two against the 92 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: spread in Lamar Jackson's careers, so they've been a great 93 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: bet as a road team. Jacksonville. They played four games 94 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: against teams that have a winning record. They're owing for 95 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is a terrible record against the spread, and 96 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: all these numbers are against the spread. Jacksonville this season 97 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: one and six their last seven games against the gambling line. 98 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm taking the Ravens here, and I'll tell you why. 99 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson gotta get out of that stump. Last seven games. 100 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: He's got six touchdown passes, five interceptions of passer rating 101 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: below eighty not exactly a money grab, free agent deb 102 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: type season. Here. The Ravens offense should have, could have, 103 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: would have scored many more points last week. They got 104 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: stuck in the mud, their own self created mud, a 105 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: lot of penalties, self inflicted dropped passes, sacks that they 106 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: allowed last week against a bad Panther team. This should 107 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: be just what the doctored order doctor order here. Jacksonville 108 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: not very good against the past in many statistical categories, 109 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: and so you think Mark Andrews the tight end and 110 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: Marcus Robinson, their top receiver right now, should flourish. But 111 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: I love John Harbaugh on the road. It's a small line. 112 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: It's four, it's not that many, and coming off of 113 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: teams coming off of by playing John Harbaugh's Ravens are 114 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: are not doing well. They're the team's coming off to 115 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: buy playing Baltimore last ten one eight and one against 116 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: the spread Ravens twenty four Jags nineteen the final and 117 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 1: the penny picks tales bend. The penny went tales, all right, 118 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: So the penny going tales and that means the penny 119 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: taking the Ravens in this game. So Baltimore is the PIC. 120 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: Next up for US Denver at Carolina Denver three and 121 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,239 Speaker 1: seven Carolina three, and it's on Fox with Chris Myers 122 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: and Robert Smith. Chrismyers part of the Fox Sports Radio 123 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: Alumni Association prior to Alex Tisher working at f s ARE, 124 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: but Chris did work there back and they did some 125 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: shows with him. And the Broncos opened a two and 126 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,119 Speaker 1: alf point favorite. They're favorite by two in this game, 127 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: and most everyone's betting on Carolina. Three of the action 128 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: last we had on the Panthers, mostly Sonny in Charlotte, 129 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: temperatures in the low sixties that kick off in North 130 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: Carolina Denver owen four against the spread as a favorite 131 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: this season, Carolina, they were dreadful under Matt Rule as 132 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: a team to bet on. They were three and sixteen 133 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: against the spread the last nineteen games Matt Rule coach. 134 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: But under Steve Wilkes there four and two against the 135 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: number and Sam Donald returning normally you don't get excited 136 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: about Sam Donald, but he can't be any worse than 137 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield was last week. And I just liked the 138 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: the gusto the Panthers have played with. They've scratched, they've claude, 139 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: they've fought for Steve Wilkes, the interim coach, and Denver 140 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: they they lost a heartbreaker to the Raiders last week 141 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: and overtime. They're completely cooked at this point at three 142 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: and seven. The Broncos offense has averaged less than fifteen 143 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: points per game. Defense has been solid, but Carolina's defense 144 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: has been pretty good of late as well. So I'm 145 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: taking the Panthers seventeen and the Broncos sixteen the final, 146 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: and the penny picks tails again, Ben Alright, so the 147 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: penny going with the road team in that one. So 148 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: the penny taking the Denver Broncos. Good luck to the 149 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: penny on that. Russell Wilson, Mr Unlimited All right. Next 150 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: up Atlanta five and six at Washington six and five. 151 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: It's a Fox game. Adam A.

They are favored by four and a 154 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: half and the money's pretty even, although slight leaned to 155 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: the Falcons at FedEx Field, temperatures in the fifties and 156 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: it's expected to be clear at kickoff Washington. What's going 157 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: on there with the team formerly known as the Redskins 158 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: five oh and one against the spread their last six games, 159 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: so they've been cooking and their four oh and one 160 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: with Taylor Heineke as the starter. Heineke as a favorite 161 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: in his career, has been three and one against the spread. 162 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: Washington this season as a favorite is three and oh. 163 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: So that tells you what has happened in Atlanta has 164 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: come crashing back down to earth in the gambling market. 165 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: They started the year six and oh against the numb 166 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: where the number has been adjusted, and right now, last 167 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: four games a dirty birds or dirty dirty dirty oh 168 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: and four against the spread. I'm gonna take the uh, 169 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders in this game. And I was going 170 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: back and forth on this, and I normally like to 171 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: lay the points, but I'm going the other way. I'm 172 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna take Washington and lay the points. Uh. 173 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: There's a wide gap between these teams. And the more 174 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: I crunched the numbers, the more I realize what am 175 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: I doing with Atlanta. Washington ranked in some of the 176 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: adjusted statistics the Nerd Stats the tenth best team in 177 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: the NFL. The Falcons are twenty night the Commandos. They 178 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: impressed me last week. I thought they were gonna Buckle 179 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: against Houston, and they did not. It was a letdown game. 180 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: They keep on winning. The formula here is pretty simple. 181 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: Run run, run, run, run, run, run, Ryan Robinson, Antonio Gibson, 182 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: and I'm getting some Jimmy G vibes from Taylor Heineken. 183 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I'm the only one. I don't 184 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: know if you're getting those fibes. But Taylor Heineke, his 185 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: numbers blow, but but he has been able to be 186 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: under center. And while he's not statistically great, Washington has 187 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: been much more successful with him than just about anyone 188 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: else recently. So I'll take the Washington football team six 189 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: and the Atlanta Football team twenty the final. And the 190 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: penny goes, oh, he's actually I'm watching him right now. 191 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: He's flipping the penny. Alex. There it is, Ben, It's heads, 192 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: all right, So heads it is. That means the penny 193 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 1: picking the home team, and that would be in agreement 194 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: with me, the penny picking Washington in this game. We 195 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: are keeping track of this for posterity's sake. Next up 196 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay five and five at Cleveland three and seven. 197 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: It's on Fox with Kenny Albert, Friend of the Show 198 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: and Jonathan Vilma. They have the call. Buck opened a 199 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: three point favorite, favorite by three in Cleveland and a 200 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: nice typical late November day in Cleveland, temperatures in the 201 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: forties and raining. It's a chamber of commerce kind of 202 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: day there in northern Ohio and the Buccaneers getting most 203 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: of the money. You look at some of the numbers here. 204 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay won six and one against the spread their 205 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: last eight games. They did beat Seattle last week, although 206 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: the Seahawks came back a little bit in the second half. 207 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the Browns in this game. The Browns 208 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: have been miserable. They they did finish the game though. 209 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,319 Speaker 1: Against Buffalo, I got a backdoor cover. Thank you very 210 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: much Cleveland on that the week plot prior, they got 211 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: flushed down the toilet by the Dolphins and they've given 212 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: up seventy points the last two weeks. That is a 213 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 1: troubling statistic going into this game. But Tom Brady, you 214 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: do some of the math on that and how he 215 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: has played this year at this has not been in 216 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: a wagon on offense for Tampa. The wind over the 217 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: Seahawks look good, but you notice Seattle they were sleep 218 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: walking the first half. The game started at six thirty 219 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: in the morning as body clock time West coast time 220 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: in Germany. Once they woke up, they played very well. 221 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: I'll play Tampa in the in the late stages that game. 222 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: So you're talking about a rainy Chile day in Cleveland. 223 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,359 Speaker 1: I love the ground game of Nick Chuba Lob lob 224 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: to get it done there. Dinged up interior defense for 225 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay based on the numbers we have as we 226 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: are recording Benny versus the Penny right now, so I 227 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: will take the Cleveland Browns seventeen and Tom Brady's Buccaneers sixteen. 228 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: The final ben the Penny has went heads again. Alright, 229 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: so heads it is, so the Penny agreeing with me 230 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: taking the Cleveland Browns in that game. Next up Cincinnati 231 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: six and four at Tennessee seven and three on CBS 232 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: with Iron Eagle and Charles Davis. Bengals opened a two 233 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: point favorite there up to a three point favorite most 234 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: of the handle in this game going in favor of 235 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans. Cloudy and fifty seven degrees at kickoff 236 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: in the Music City in Nashville, Tennessee. Tennessee has been 237 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: a wonderful team as an underdog there eleven and four 238 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: against the spread their last fifteen. But check this out. 239 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: Tennessee has covered eight straight games. That is the longest 240 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: active streak in the NFL. Tells you what they have done, 241 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: not what they're going to do. But one more cover 242 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: here and the Titans, Remember the Titans, They would tie 243 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: the second longest streak to past fifteen years. The most 244 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: recent was Green Bay last year they covered nine strade 245 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: but this is tied now for the longest cover streaks 246 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: since the franchise left Texas to go to Tennessee. They 247 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: were originally in Memphis for a couple of years. That 248 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:03,359 Speaker 1: was back in before I was in in a live craziness. 249 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: One more cover here, So if Tennessee covers the spread today, 250 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: that would be the longest streak in the Super Bowl 251 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: era for that franchise since the Love Me Blue nineteen 252 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: seventy five. Houston Oilers, Holy crap, that's a long time ago. 253 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: Cincinnati seven and one against the spread since Week three, 254 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: so they played well, I'm taking that Titans. Now I'm 255 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: taking the times. We're betting on Tennessee. The reason I 256 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: like Tennessee is their defense. There are top ten defense 257 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: and getting to the quarterback. The offensive line played better 258 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: last week for Cincinnati. I don't trust the offensive line 259 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: getting it done again here, and so if I'm right 260 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: about the Titans, they will force Joe Burrow to make 261 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: some quick throws, some inaccurate throws which leads to interceptions 262 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: in complete passes. Jamaar Chase does come back, but what 263 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: version are you going to get? Mike rabele as a 264 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: home dog has been the thanks Giving miracle, Thanksgiving weekend 265 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: miracle in Tennessee. And that defense, that's the side they 266 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: have given up twenty or more points just one time 267 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: since September. Since late September, they've got a mini buy, 268 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: so they got a little more time off for this game. 269 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: It'll be a low scoring game, but the wrong team 270 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: is favored. Titans will get to eight and three Tennessee 271 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: twenty and up Ben Gals seventeen the final Ben the 272 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: penny has won Heads yet again. All right, so the 273 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: penny taking the home team, and remember Benny versus the Penny. 274 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: Home team is Heads and the road team is Tales. 275 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: Of the home team here is Tennessee, So the Penny 276 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: picking the Tennessee Titans in this one. Next up Houston 277 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: one eight and one, the NFL's worst team, and Miami 278 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: Miami Miami at seven and three on ciby as with 279 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: Spirodidas and Jay Feely. The Dolphins opened a nine and 280 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: a point favorite. They've been bet up the thirteen and 281 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: a half. Everyone thinks this is a free money game 282 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: that all Miami has to do is show up and 283 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: they're gonna win this game. Light rain temperatures in the 284 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: mid eighties in the tropical paradise where the Dolphins play 285 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: their games at hard Rock Stadium. Now, some of the 286 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: numbers here on this game the to a tongue of 287 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: Eloa Dolphins eight and oh straight up as a home favorite, 288 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: six and two against the spread. Houston, though there four 289 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: and one against the spread of at least a seven 290 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: point line. They're getting almost double that in this game. 291 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: Texans are two and oh as a double digit underdog 292 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: this season against the spread. And this is a historic 293 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,959 Speaker 1: point spread. If you're into these kind of things, and 294 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: what kind of point dexter is not right, Tisher, you're 295 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: a big nerd. You're into this, yes, man, of course 296 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: you're hanging on my every word. I can tell yes. Sorry, 297 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: Miami has not been this big effe favorite. They have 298 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: not been at least an eleven point favorite since twenty 299 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: oh three Tonio Gays nineteen years ago. That was also 300 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: against Houston. They were a fourteen point favorite. Miami lost 301 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: that game for crapping giggles. Dolphins three fourteen games without 302 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 1: being at least an eleven point favorite. That is the 303 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: second longest streak in the NFL. That's gonna come to 304 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: an end here this week, Detroit. If you're wondering, the 305 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: Lions have the longest streak. They were last that big 306 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: a favorite in nineteen ninety six. How old was Alex 307 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: tysher in nine were even alive? Oh my god, Lord 308 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: have mercy. Alright, alright, man, oh my god. Alright, the 309 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: Texans are my pick here. I'm gonna take the Texas. Now, 310 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: I realized this is risky business, and a six year 311 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 1: old acts Tisher would have known even at age six 312 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: that this is Miami is third in yards per games. 313 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 1: Houston is dead last, Alex, they're dead last in yards 314 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: per game. And you look at you know some of 315 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: the numbers here. The defense for the Texans is thirty 316 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 1: feet in that category. So that's why they're the worst team. 317 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: But I'm I'm gambling for a couple of things here, 318 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: and all of this is a you know, put your 319 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: neck out situation. But my logic behind the Texans pick 320 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: is this, the Texans have been a middling team. They've 321 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: been in statistically in these games for three quarters or 322 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: for half. But normally what has happened is Davis Mills 323 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: goes helter skelter and messes up. He's getting benched. He's 324 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: not playing in this game. The Texans turning to Kyle Allen. 325 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: We've heard that name before. He's played. He's been unstable, 326 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: he's been unreliable. That's why he keeps changing teams. But 327 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 1: he has had some really great performances mixed in with 328 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: the crap uh and he started seventeen games, seven and 329 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: ten career record. He has four career games with two 330 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: touchdowns and two or more touchdowns and in receptions three 331 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: games with three plus interceptions. Just for comparison sake, Davis 332 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: Mills has two games only two, and he started many 333 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: more games with three plus touchdowns and no interceptions. He's 334 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: got six games with two or more interceptions. So as 335 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,199 Speaker 1: bad as Houston is, and they've earned every one of 336 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: their losses. Eight of them. Only one of those losses 337 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: has been by thirteen and a half or more points, 338 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 1: and the Dolphins only have one win by thirteen or 339 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: more points. So that was last week against Cleveland Brown team. 340 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: That was was a mess. So I'm taking the Dolphins. 341 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: Thirty four Texans twenty three Texans will be the right 342 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: side of the bet, and we'll flip the penny up 343 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: with Alex representing the penny. Alex Tisher, Alex the Vegan, 344 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: Alex the Anime Star will be on all our podcast 345 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: this weekend. Ben, You'll never believe this pen. The penny 346 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: has gone heads again, pen. Are you sure about the 347 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: hold that up? Let me see that here. Okay, let's 348 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 1: see the other side. Flip it over. Let me see 349 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: all right, it's a legitimate It's not unless it's a legit. 350 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: It's a legit penny. That's the way the penny go. 351 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: That's the way. Are you smelling fishy business just because 352 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: I did well last week? Is I'm just I'm trying 353 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: to figure out. I mean, all these he keeps coming 354 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: up heads that's anyway that that's the Dolphins. So the 355 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: Dolphins the pick for the penny. The home team again 356 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: home Team Heads Road Team Tales. Next up Chicago Chicago 357 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: Chicago dub Bears three and eight at the Jets six 358 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: and four. It's on Fox with Joe Davis and Darryl 359 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: moose Johnston. They have the call. The Jets opened a 360 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: three and a point favorite. They are favored by six 361 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: in this particular game. So that's the that's the number 362 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: in this game, and this this game has changed quite 363 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: a bit because of the quarterback situation for both teams. 364 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: Will give you some of the of the numbers on 365 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: this as far as the gambling line UH wide percentage 366 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: wide percentage in favor of the Jets in this particular game. 367 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: Jets coming off a bad loss as opposed to a 368 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: good loss. A bad loss to the New England Patriots 369 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: last week. New York has not been a six point 370 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: favorite since Week ten of the season. Last time the 371 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: Jets were a four point favorite was in twenty nineteen. 372 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: Jets have been a good team this year off of loss. 373 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: There are three and all against the spread. They're also 374 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: four and oh against the gambling line against teams that 375 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: have a losing record, and so those are some positive stature. 376 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: Chicago has not been a good play as an underdog. 377 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: But it's it's a whole new world here. We're out 378 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: in the cosmos because the Bears will not have Justin 379 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: Fielts out. We we believe, we were told that with 380 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: a separated shoulder. But I'm I'm gonna the Jets in 381 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: this game. I was gonna take the Bears had we 382 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: had Fields. He's not, from what we understand, gonna play 383 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: separated shoulder serrow. He's out. Zack Wilson has been benched. 384 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: He won't even be in uniform either in this game. 385 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: So you've got Mike White for the Jet season in 386 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: the cockpit as the pilot versus Trevor Simeon in the 387 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 1: Bears cage or dan? Is it a cage or a den? 388 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: I guess it's a den, right, don't they call it? 389 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: It's a Lions den? Is it a Bear's den? To believe? So, 390 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: all right, you're the animal guy, you know what, you 391 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: protect him, You're all exactly right. Yeah. Uh, Anyway, this 392 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: is a bad matchup the Bears the Bears. Though, here's 393 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: the deal. I look at the Bears as a one 394 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: man band. There was one guy making plays the last month, 395 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: and that was Justin Fields and assuming he's not there. 396 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 1: They become the Headless Horseman. And you know, we know 397 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: that the story that the headless Horseman. Uh, we don't 398 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: trust Mike White very well either. Joe Flacco likely will 399 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: get into this game of White has a reversal of 400 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,959 Speaker 1: fortune and rides the vomit comment. But we do believe 401 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: in the Jets defense. That is a top notch units, 402 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: top unit on the field. Of all the four Jets offense, 403 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,719 Speaker 1: all six right, because you've got special teams offense defense 404 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: of all six units three on three, the Jets defense 405 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: is the right side. And they gotta win this game, 406 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: and they should win it comfortably. I don't know how 407 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: the Bears are gonna score with Trevor Simeon outside of 408 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: turnovers by Mike White in a short field. Up next 409 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: after this game, the Jets have the Vikings and the 410 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: Bills on the road. So you gotta win this game. 411 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: Get that mojo back. Jets twenty three Bears nine. The 412 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: final and the Penny picks. We have our tales band. 413 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: Penny went tales all right, So tails it is. And 414 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: so for the first time in a while, a road pick, 415 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: and that means you're taking the Chicago Bears, so a 416 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: disagreement on that game. We'll get to a late television 417 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: window now and Benny versus the Penny Man versus Meadow, 418 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: Las Vegas three and seven at Seattle six and four. 419 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: It's on CBS with Greg Gumble and Adam Archiletta on 420 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: the call. The Seahawks opened a three point favorite, their 421 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: favorite by three and a half now and the handle 422 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: on this game. Most everyone betting on the Seahawks. Rain 423 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: showers and temperatures in the forties at Looming Field in Seattle. 424 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: The Seahawks four and one against the spread their last five. 425 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: Derek Carr, He's been a pretty good play as a 426 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: road underdog since twenty nineteen. Twelve and seven against the spread, 427 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: not straight up. I'm gonna take the Raiders in this 428 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: game plus the points. This is a turning point game 429 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: for Seattle. They misfired in Germany playing the Bucks. We 430 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: talked about that earlier, discombobulated. It was an early start 431 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: for them. The Raiders are coming off an overtime win 432 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: over the Broncos. We do expect a rebound for Geno Smith. 433 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: We don't think Glass Slipper has broken yet, and the 434 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: Raiders are just a miserable team at stopping the past 435 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: against the past, Max Crosby has been the only player 436 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: earning his keep up front, and we do expect a 437 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: cacophony of big plays from DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett 438 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: in the passing game. But the Raiders have been the 439 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: kind of team that's there and they hang around, they 440 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: hang around, they hang around, and they're they're just bad 441 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: enough to figure out a way not to hammer down 442 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: to win, to screw it up, and they get behind 443 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: the eight ball late in the game. And so I 444 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: say that trend continues, and I know that say what 445 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: has happened doesn't it's not guaranteed to happen. But that's 446 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: my layman's perspective on this. So the Seahawks will win it. 447 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: But I love the hook on that. I love getting 448 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 1: the three and a half. And that's the line here. 449 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: So Seahawks thirty and the Raiders seven. The final penny 450 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: is going tails again, Ben. So the penny taking the 451 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 1: road team that would be lost Vegas the Raiders is 452 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: the pick a million miles away. Uh. We go down 453 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: to the next game, the Chargers five and five at 454 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,880 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals four and seven, on CBS with Kevin 455 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: Harland and Trent Green. The Chargers opened to two and 456 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: app point favorite. They're favored by three. Most of the 457 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: money on Arizona in this game, mostly cloudy degrees in 458 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: the Greater Phoenix area at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. 459 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: Feel the fear, the d the Dale, the Glendale l 460 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: A five and oh against the spread on the road 461 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 1: this season. The only team undefeated on the road against 462 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: the spread this year. They've been wonderful in that spot, 463 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: but most of those games they've been an underdog. Cliff 464 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: Kingsbury typically a great play as an underdog with Arizona, 465 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: but lost last week. And I'm gonna take the Chargers here. 466 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: I'll late the three points. I know that alligator arms 467 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray's coming act. It won't matter. The Cardinals, They've 468 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: got a half. The team has quit on Kingsbury. This 469 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: team is just I don't know what's gonna snap matters. 470 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: They just look lack of dais ago. They took plays 471 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: off against the Niners. It's a frat house set up. 472 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: You've got no discipline. Arizona's got a bye week next week, 473 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: so you've got some of the guys looking ahead to 474 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: their vacation in Cancoon. The Chargers have been heartbreak heroes, 475 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert putting up points. I was at the game 476 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: last week. We'll talk more about that tomorrow on the podcast. 477 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: But I was at the Charger game with the Chiefs. 478 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,239 Speaker 1: Good offense, able to move the ball. They've gotten some 479 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: guys back, but they've got to get cooking here and 480 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: win a few games in a road to get back 481 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: in that thick thickness of the playoff race. I say 482 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: they do take advantage of a weak spot in the 483 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: schedule and add to the misery of the Cardinals Chargers 484 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: the former San Diego Charge now l A Chargers six 485 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: and Arizona seventeen. The final penny picks penny has gone 486 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 1: heads band alright, so the penny going with the home 487 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: team that would be Arizona. So we disagree on that game. 488 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: So does seem like there's been a lot of disagreement here, 489 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: which means one of us is gonna be really happy 490 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: and the other one will be really sad. Uh And well, 491 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: I hope it's me. I hope I'm not sad one. 492 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: Next up the l A Rams that Cansas City Kevin 493 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: Burkhardt has the call with Greg Olsen on Fox. I'm 494 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: assuming that the Fox executives wish they had not made 495 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: this game such a big game, as it looked good 496 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: going into the year, but not right now. The Rams 497 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: three and seven, Chiefs eight and two Kansas City opened 498 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: a ten point favorite. As we are doing this, we 499 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: go through the numbers and wow, wow, wow, wow, the 500 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: Chiefs are a fifteen and a half point favorite. They 501 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: have jumped across the fourteen point mark. Everyone thinks this 502 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: is a free money game. Nine seven percent of the 503 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: action on the chief sunny, mostly sunny, and temperatures in 504 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: the forties at Arrowheads Stadium in the heart Land. Now 505 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: this is another historic point spread. How far have things 506 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: gone into the abyss for the l A. Rams. No 507 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: reigning Super Bowl champion has ever been a fourteen point 508 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: underdog or worse, There have been double digit underdogs. The 509 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: largest reigning champion to be an underdog the Philadelphia Eagles. 510 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: They were thirteen and nine point underdogs, and also the 511 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: Niners they were also thirteen and that point underdogs. Both 512 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: those teams went the way of the underdog. They went 513 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: out right. Last time the Rams were this big and underdog, 514 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: they were the St. Louis Rams in So it has 515 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: gone to hell in a handbasket for the Rams. We 516 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: knew they would not be as good this year, but man, 517 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: old man, the ebb and flow has not been there 518 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: at all. That being said, I'm still taking the Rams 519 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: in this game. I can't lay over two touchdowns. Kansas 520 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: City two and five as at least a four point 521 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: favorite this season, so they have been good that spot. 522 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh has run out of the secret sauce and 523 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: everyone's airing their grievances now around the Rams. This team 524 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: reminds me of some of the Jeff Fisher teams from 525 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: years ago. Bad to the bone, bad bad, bad bad 526 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: bad bad the bone. Nevertheless, I'm gonna take the Rams. 527 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: As I said Aaron Donald, all he has to do 528 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: is make a couple of plays. Sack Patrick Mahomes spoiled 529 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: some drives. Jalen Ramsey with a tipped interception. Matthew Stafford 530 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: is out. John Wolford likely out. That means someone named 531 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: Bryce Perkins. We're not sure who that is. He's getting 532 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: the opportunity of a lifetime here. Twenty five years old, 533 00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: undrafted out of Virginia, also played at Arizona State. He's 534 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: attempted eleven career passes and now it looks like he'll 535 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: be starting for a reigning Super Bowl champion. Rams also 536 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: got rid of Darrell Henderson, got rid of some of 537 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: their other players. One of the linebackers they got rid of, 538 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: so they got cam Akers and someone named Kyraen Williams 539 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: in the backfield. Man, is this a big mismatch? We 540 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: we hope that Patrick Mahomes oversleep. But the change. The 541 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: Chiefs are also dinged up here, and so the right 542 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: side is the Rams betting double digit dogs. We talked 543 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: about this all the time on Benny versus the Penny, 544 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: but betting on double digit underdogs is a profitable strategy 545 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: and betting the other way will chew you up. So 546 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: the only way I would bet this game would be 547 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 1: to take the points. I would not lay the points, 548 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm gonna need some divine intervention here, Alex 549 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: and the penny. But I'll take the l A Rams 550 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: plus the points Chiefs thirty and the l A Rams 551 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: with a special teams touchdown and a defensive score seventeen. 552 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: The final ben We're not going seven and nine. I'm 553 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: not gonna settle for it. It's the tales, Ben, It's tales, alright, tales. 554 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 1: It is so the l a Ram's the pick of 555 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: the penny. We agree on that game. Next up, the 556 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: last game in the late afternoon television window. Then we'll 557 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: get to the primetime games as the New Orleans Saints 558 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: continue to run up the debt as they are spotty spotty, 559 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: shall we say it's like a fuzzy picture. Saints are 560 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: four and seven San Francisco six and four. It's on 561 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: Fox with with Kevin Coogler and Mark steel is not 562 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: by all accounts are back and that's why they're a 563 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: nine and a half point favorite. They opened at seven 564 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: and most everyone betting on the Niners in this game 565 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: at Levi's Stadium, but I'm not. I'm gonna take the 566 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: Saints in this game. Saints have been a terrible team 567 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: on the road this season. They're own for New Orleans 568 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: on the road. But Kyle shanahan and has not been 569 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: great as a favorite as a home favorite eight seventeen 570 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: and two of at least at eight. As an eight 571 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: point favorite, the Niners are four, seven and one now. 572 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: He was wearing a smile last week in Mexico in 573 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: Mexico City, as the forty Niners were big favorites, and 574 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: they didn't have to put a lot of work in 575 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: because the Cardinals blow and they were able to have 576 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: their beautiful blowout win, and the Niners are a beauty 577 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: pageant winner. The national media is kissing their ass. They're 578 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: getting loads of national talking head support, and it is 579 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: tempting to lay the big line. But I'm gonna stay 580 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: disciplined here. I know New Orleans as a lousy team. 581 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: I get that this is a lopsided game on the 582 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,240 Speaker 1: depth chart on your phone, Andy Dalton against the NFL's 583 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: top defense. That is a want to get away situation. 584 00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 1: It's enough to give you heartburn and anxiety. Nevertheless, there 585 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: is a path here, all right, there is a path 586 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: to cover. What do you need? I'll tell you. You 587 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: gotta have Alvin Kamara break a couple of big runs, 588 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry make a couple of players on third down 589 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: in the passing game, have some Jimmy G mistakes, and 590 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: that that's usually what you get every couple of games. 591 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: Jimmy G's got one or two interceptions that that ends 592 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: the drive, a couple of sacks, those are all the ingredients. 593 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: Big special teams play that doesn't win you the game 594 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: per se, but it keeps you in. That's what the 595 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 1: that's what matters, right, keeps you in the game. Getting 596 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: over a touchdown. The Niners coming off an easy win 597 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: against the team that quit in Arizona, traveling back from Mexico. 598 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: You're not getting up for the New Orleans Saints. It's 599 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: a home game. You've got bigger fish to fry down 600 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: the word down the road. So I am going to 601 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,919 Speaker 1: take with the kindest regards to the forty Niners, who 602 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: are my pick to click in the NFC, but not 603 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: to cover the spread here as I will take the 604 00:35:53,760 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: Niners thirty and the New Orleans Saints the final. The 605 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: penny ben is going tails, so the penny agrees with 606 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: me on that game. We're gonna take New Orleans. Next up, 607 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: we hit your ride to Phila Delphia, where the cheese 608 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 1: steak is fresh, not for you, for the rest of us, 609 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: chief steak is fresh, and the tasty cakes are wonderful, 610 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: and all the hustle bustle of the Delaware Valley, Green 611 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: Bay four and seven, Philadelphia nine and one on and 612 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: Bean c looks like everyone in Green Bay's run out 613 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: of patients here. What a hot mess, Mike to Rico 614 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: Chris Collinsworth have the call Eagles a six and ap 615 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: point favorite. They opened as a six point favorite, and 616 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: watching the green Bay Packers you will laugh till you 617 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: cry watching the Packers play this season, mostly clear temperatures 618 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: in the low fifties at Lincoln Financial Field at kickoff. 619 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: The numbers on this one green Bay seven and all 620 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: against the spread their last seven on Sunday Night football, 621 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: most of those games, it seems at lambeau Field, Philadelphia 622 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: oh and three against the line the last three games. 623 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as an underdog of seven or better at 624 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 1: six and a half right now, but four and one 625 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,439 Speaker 1: against the spread. I'm gonna take the Packers in this game. 626 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 1: Packers have lost six of seven straight up, but they 627 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: don't have to win the game to win the money. 628 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 1: You can hang around, hang around, and something has gone 629 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 1: wonky with the Philadelphia Eagles. The very lucky to win 630 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 1: last week did not cover against Indianapolis and Washington. What 631 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: they were able to do is lay out the blueprint 632 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: on how to be successful against Philly. What you have 633 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 1: to do a lot of ground and pound some tricks 634 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: you can use on defense to get an honest buck 635 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,240 Speaker 1: performance out of your defense. There and slow down Jalen 636 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: Hurts confused him and and taste taste a little slice 637 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: of success against a nine and one now Philadelphia Eagles team. 638 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: So this is a big week for Aaron Jones and 639 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: a J. Dillon, the running game, the offensive line for 640 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: Green Bay. All these teams dinged up right now. Eagles 641 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: twenty six eat g l eat as he goes and 642 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: the Packers twenty two the final and we passed the 643 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: baton over the the penny on Benny versus the penny Ben. 644 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 1: The penny is going heads this time, So the penny 645 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: going with the home team, the Philadelphia Eagles, laying the 646 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: six and a half in that game. Next up, Monday 647 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 1: Night football, Pittsburgh three and seven at Indianapolis four six 648 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: and one on a b C with Joe Back and 649 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman. The Colts opened a three point favorite. The 650 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: line has stayed the same most the money the handle 651 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mostly cloudy outside and the temperatures 652 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: in the forties in Indianapolis on Monday night. Lucas Oil 653 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: Stadium the site in Indianapolis one and four against the 654 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: spread as a favorite this season. Some his history gambling 655 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: history in this game. Jeff Saturday on Sunday seeking to 656 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: become the second coach in the last thirty seasons to 657 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: cover each of their first three career games as head 658 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: coach after taking over midseason. The only other one to 659 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 1: do it Jason Garrett clap on, clap off the clapper, 660 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett five and oh against the spread to start 661 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: his career with Dallas Cowboys. And I say Jeff Saturday 662 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,399 Speaker 1: does not get her done, does not get her done here. 663 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: And I want to take the Indianapolis Colts opponent, the 664 00:39:55,480 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh and any they're similar. There's only one 665 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: game really that separates these two teams. I expect a 666 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: lukewarm performance by the Colts after the excitement of that 667 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: first game with Jeff Saturday and then they had a 668 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: gut punch loss to the Eagles late last week. I 669 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: expected more from t J. Watt against the Bengals. He 670 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: did not help me out. Cincinnati put a thirty seven 671 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 1: burger on the Steelers defense. But on a positive note, 672 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh scored thirty points a season high with Kenny Pickett 673 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: against Cincinnati last week Steelers twenty four and the Colts 674 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: twenty three, the final and for the final time here 675 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: in week number twelve, the penny is on the clock 676 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: and the penny picks. Can you pick it? Ben? It 677 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 1: went tails tails, It is so the penny going with 678 00:40:55,440 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: the road team agreeing with me on Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh 679 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:05,760 Speaker 1: in that particular game. And that will conclude. That will 680 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: conclude this edition of Benny Versus the Penny.
