1
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre.

2
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: What is up straight firefam, It's me Jason McIntyre, Straight

3
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: Fire for Friday, October twenty fifth. Oh what a night

4
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 2: Thursday night was. I hope your Thursday night was as

5
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 2: good as mine. Obviously, the RAMS covering was really good

6
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: for business. On the hurd, I gave out Rams money Line.

7
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 2: Didn't give that out on the podcast. It was just

8
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: a late thing. Once I saw that Puka was gonna go,

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 2: I was like, oh geez, all right, let me go

10
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 2: Rams money Line. And it was a good night. And

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: then of course of the Men's League regular season finale,

12
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: we're down our two bigs, no Richard Jefferson, No Richard Jefferson,

13
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: no former MVP my man Ben. And we played the

14
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: team with the guy who went to Harvard and Duke,

15
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: and we were on one. I mean not me. I

16
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: had a three game slump. Don't ask, don't ask. But

17
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: it's just it's good to be the GM and put

18
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: together a team that's strong. We got role players. It

19
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: is so fun. And we rolled eighty nine to seventy four,

20
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 2: a very nice w and now we get two weeks

21
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,839
Speaker 2: off for good behavior and then we're in the semi final,

22
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 2: So very fired up about that. But also, hey, how

23
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: about the NBA? How good was last night in the Association?

24
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 2: I mean Klay Thompson makes his debut with the MAVs,

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: Jordan Poole goes off for in the first quarter, and

26
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: then the Celtics rolled them, and yeah, OK, see looking good?

27
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: Denver not so much. I only bet two season win

28
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 2: totals in the NBA. Wrote it up for Fox Sports

29
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: and they Denver Nuggets under was one of them. Denver

30
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: did not look good, folks. Again, It's one game, no

31
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 2: big deal, but they just they're not as good as

32
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 2: they were two years ago, clearly. And it's more than

33
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: losing KCP and Braun. Not Braun, I'm sorry, not Braun.

34
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: It was Brown Brown, Bruce Brown, That's who they lost

35
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 2: to the Pacers. They just they seem top heavy. I mean,

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't think they know what they want to be.

37
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: I mean, they were jacking threes at an alarming rate

38
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,559
Speaker 2: and nothing's going in and that wasn't great three point

39
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: three quarter, three point defense from the Thunder. It was

40
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: just bad offense. Like Jamal Murray, Oh, I don't know,

41
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: maybe he's still not one hundred percent. Anyways, let's get

42
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 2: to the main event. I am. Before I get to

43
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 2: NFL picks, I am going to quickly just give a

44
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: World Series pick. No word on tickets yet. I'm hopeful.

45
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: I remain hopeful, but I'm gonna go Yankees in seven.

46
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: You know, I don't really have a major rooting interest

47
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,399
Speaker 2: because I've become a Dodgers stance. It's being out here.

48
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 2: I obviously rooted for the Yankees growing up. My favorite

49
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 2: place player was Don Mattingly, then it was Derek Jeter.

50
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: Obviously I will be rooting Yankees. If I am fortunate

51
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 2: enough to get tickets, I probably will go Yankees T

52
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: shirt and then a Dodgers T shirt. I don't know

53
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: Whi's what I were on top, just kidding. I'm not

54
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: trying to get a fight at a stadium because inebriated

55
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: crowds like you're a Yankees. I don't need that garbage.

56
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm rooting Yankees. I just ultimately, and you

57
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: guys know, I'm not a baseball handicapper. Haven't been a

58
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: baseball game in years. To me, it's just like this

59
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 2: is gonna be an offensive showcase. I think the Yankees

60
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: have the pitching edge, and I don't totally. I don't

61
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: think that anyone that the Dodgers will put on the

62
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: mounds scares the Yankees. There's no starter, there's go oh,

63
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: geez oh, I gotta deal with that guy. It just

64
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 2: doesn't look like that based on what I've read. And

65
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: the thing I'm excited about is I don't anticipate a

66
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: lot of two to one, three to one kind of games.

67
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 2: It looks like we're gonna see some firepower. I mean,

68
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 2: you got a tany Betts Judge soda like there the

69
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 2: offensive explosion is cau. I anticipate like nine to six,

70
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 2: seven to five, those kind of high scoring, fun games.

71
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: This is gonna be a great world series. Very fired up.

72
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: Also fired up for the Rams. It's funny. Forty eight

73
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 2: hours ago there were reports, and I'm doing air quotes

74
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: here in my home studio, reports that the Rams could

75
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: be trading Cooper Cup, that the Rams are calling people

76
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: about do you want Cooper Cup? And I was like,

77
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: come on. And then there was well the Rams they

78
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 2: could move off Stafford and it was like, where's this

79
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: crap coming from? Is McVeigh trying to Luller, Minnesota to

80
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 2: sleep here? And everything lined up for the Rams in

81
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: this one. Vikings coming off a tough loss to the Lions.

82
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: As I noted weeks ago, if you play the Lions

83
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 2: the next week, you're beat up because the Lions are

84
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 2: really a physical offensive team and just wear people down. Ultimately,

85
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: the Vikings wore down. And this is becoming a situation

86
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: with Minnesota if you guys look closely, If you look closely,

87
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: they are a dominant, dominant team early. You should, and

88
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: I haven't been doing this, you should consider betting the

89
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 2: Vikings first quarter every game. So this guy's substack that

90
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 2: I follow broke down the Vikings through four possessions. They

91
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 2: led the Giants fourteen to three, the Niners ten nothing,

92
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 2: the Texans fourteen nothing, the Packers twenty one nothing, the

93
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 2: Jets ten to nothing, the Lions ten to seven, and

94
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 2: they were tied with the Rams fourteen all. Folks, Kevin

95
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 2: O'Connell's one of the best head coaches in the league. Offensively,

96
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: he is. I mean, if we're gonna call McDaniel a genius,

97
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: we can call O'Connell a football genius. I mean, he's

98
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: dialing up some awesome stuff. The problem becomes is the

99
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 2: second half, they're getting beat up. That's the issue. And

100
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: if you look at the second half in the Rams loss,

101
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 2: it was like, let's see sixteen to six rams and listen,

102
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get crazy about that safety and the

103
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: face mask which was obvious. I'm not gonna get into it.

104
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 2: It's rigged and the total and all that nonsense. It

105
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 2: is a little weird. I'll just leave it at this.

106
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 2: It's strange that the ref was staring right at the play.

107
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: You can see Darnold's head and the helmet twist around

108
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: on the face mask and he says nothing. I mean,

109
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 2: he had to be seven yards away from the play

110
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: and staring right at it, like the camera behind him,

111
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: clear line, nobody was obscuring his vision. And it's like, really,

112
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: he's not seeing the face mask. And again, Vikings Fanner

113
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 2: or Vikings fan are apoplectic. Got we got robbed. This

114
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: is the reason we lost. That's not the reason you lost.

115
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: The reason you loss is because Sam Darnold coming off

116
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: the script. All the early stuff is scripted right O'Connell

117
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: senses the weaknesses, draws up plays that are gonna be advantageous,

118
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 2: and boom, the Vikings pounce early and they jump out

119
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: to an early lead. After that, though, is when it

120
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: becomes a problem. And I don't know that it's necessarily

121
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 2: on O'Connell. It's possible that Donald is limited. Donald had

122
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 2: a fine game, right, Stafford had a good game. Ultimately,

123
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: it was just the Minnesota Vikings after the script wore off.

124
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: I mean, let's go through their second half possessions. The

125
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 2: first possession eleven plays, sixty eight yards field goal, nine

126
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: play fifty three yards field goal, four plays, fourteen yards punt,

127
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: and then you had the safety. They what is that? One, two, three,

128
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: four possessions in the second half. That's tough. Rams really

129
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: wore them down. They had a six minute touchdown drive,

130
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: a four minute touchdown drive. They were headed towards something

131
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: good until the interception by Stafford. But ultimately did the

132
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: Rams become interesting? If you are McVeigh, can you make

133
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: the case? Hey, remember last year, guys, we were dead

134
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 2: in the water. We turned it around, we made the playoffs.

135
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 2: It was a glorious year. Why can't we do that again.

136
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: We've got a defense that's maturing, We've got Pooka back.

137
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 2: At Pooka, I mean, he looked like he was perfectly fine,

138
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 2: Like you're like, oh, that guy's coming off an injury.

139
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 2: Seven for one oh six, it's caught seven or nine targets.

140
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: It was Cooper Cup with five for fifty one and

141
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 2: the Tuddy and it's like, wait a minute, this offense

142
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: can be really freaking good. Kyran Williams twenty three carries

143
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: ninety seven yards, didn't have one explosive but didn't really need.

144
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 2: But ultimately you look at this Rams team, You're like, oh, okay,

145
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 2: we got some stuff here. Stafford against the blitz happy

146
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings was not sacked. He was getting the ball

147
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 2: out really quick. Stafford had a very very good game.

148
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: And it's one of those like, Okay, maybe the Rams.

149
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 2: I'm not saying they could be a contender in the NFC,

150
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 2: obviously not. But if you look at how the NFC's

151
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: shaking out, remember the NFC North was like the best

152
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: division in football. Obviously, let's just keep an eye on it.

153
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: You'll hear invest bets a couple of teams from that

154
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 2: division are featured. But I could obviously be wrong, and

155
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 2: maybe I'm on the wrong side. And what if Jacksonville

156
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 2: pulls the upset Washington wins with Marcus Barriota, and then

157
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 2: the Titans are frisky with the Lions unlikely, but who knows.

158
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 2: It's the NFL and all of a sudden, it's like,

159
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 2: wait a minute, that division was supposed to be utterly

160
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: dominant and they all lost, like that could easily happen.

161
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: We see the Vikings lose. It felt like the spot

162
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 2: was not good for Minnesota. I said it earlier. Aaron

163
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: Jones did not totally look fresh. He was not able

164
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: to really get loose, and that defense was kind of

165
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: juiced up for the Rams. You gotta be optimistic if

166
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 2: you're a Rams fan. The Vikings get some rest before

167
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: hosting the Is that really a Sunday Night football game?

168
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: The Minnesota Vikings host the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday Sunday

169
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 2: night football. Not a not a great game by any stretch.

170
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: The Rams, I think, are the team to watch. You know,

171
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: they had that lucky comeback against the Niners. They held

172
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: off the Raiders. They have not looked good really at all.

173
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: But we're talking about no Cup and no Puka for

174
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 2: like the last five games. This is where it gets interesting.

175
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 2: Rams at Seattle next week in a big, big game. Now,

176
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,839
Speaker 2: why is that big. Seattle has Buffalo. Okay, if Seattle,

177
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 2: which I think we all think is a wildcard team,

178
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 2: if they lose to Buffalo, that's a must win in Seattle,

179
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 2: and the Rams have to go on the road. Oh

180
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: that's a man, this Rams schedule. Let's see after Seattle,

181
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 2: you have Miami with Tua, which is gonna be that's it.

182
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 2: SOFI should be a good game. Then you have at

183
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: New England. They Rams will be favored. They host Philly

184
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 2: at SOFI, although that place is gonna be loud with

185
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 2: Philly fans. We know that they travel to New Orleans.

186
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: Maybe the Saints are healthy at that point. Buffalo sand

187
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 2: fra oh man, the schedule's tough. We don't know what

188
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 2: the Jets are gonna be, but that Buffalo out here

189
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 2: at SOFI, then up north to San fran We know

190
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 2: the Niners own them. They will be looking for revenge,

191
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 2: although we don't. Would Caffrey be playing, who knows? And

192
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,599
Speaker 2: then they have to cross country trip to the Jets.

193
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 2: Oh man, that is a rough rough early December.

194
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: Damn.

195
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 2: So that's where the state of the Rams. They already

196
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 2: had their bye week. Man, not a lot of not

197
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 2: a lot of reasons for optimism down the stretch. So

198
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: the schedule's tough, but let's see how it shakes out.

199
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 2: In the NFC. We don't our Washington's gonna remain tough

200
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: and formidable. Seattle forty nine ers a lot of question marks. Ultimately,

201
00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 2: it was a It was a nice win for the Rams,

202
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 2: a good cash forever, all those straight fire listeners. And

203
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: now we head to Sunday's card and let's get to

204
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 2: best bets.

210
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: Here's your best bet.

211
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 2: All right, let's see if we can have another winning

212
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 2: weekend in college and the NFL. The college picks, there

213
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 2: aren't as many, not a ton of great games this weekend.

214
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 2: We have Oregon minus twenty one against Illinois. This is

215
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 2: a risky play. Most of it has to do with

216
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: Big ten team going from the Midwest to the West Coast.

217
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 2: The teams have been awful this year. Doing that, I'm

218
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: also on USC minus thirteen against Rutgers. Rutgers traveling to

219
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 2: the it's simply a travel player. The big ten teams

220
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: that have had the big travel so far have totally

221
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 2: crapped themselves. I'm on Washington plus six, Bowling Green plus

222
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 2: two and a half numbers play on Boston College plus

223
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 2: seven and a half, the Kent State Golden Flashes or

224
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 2: they just the Flashes. No, it's Kent State plus sixteen

225
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: and a half. Oklahoma aka ch Oklahoma. Massive issues on

226
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: that offense. I cannot believe I'm backing the plus twenty.

227
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: They probably get blasted. They are not very good. My

228
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: son's buddy's dad is like the biggest Oklahoma fan. He's

229
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 2: from Oklahoma, went to school there, listens to like Oklahoma

230
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 2: programs out here in La on the radio. He's really

231
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 2: dialed in and he's very down on Oklahoma. And I

232
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: haven't yet told him that I took Oklahoma plus twenty.

233
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 2: I'm very curious as what is response will be. They

234
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 2: have quarterback issues. It's a nightmare, but go Sooners. Notre

235
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 2: Dame minus twelve and a half against Navy, and finally

236
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 2: Baylor minus six and a half just not a huge

237
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: college slate and it's like, you know, it's a big

238
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: Halloween party weekend, so there's a lot of stuff going on.

239
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 2: I don't even know how much college football watch Saturday

240
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 2: between kids sports and dad trying to get in some

241
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 2: gym workouts. You know, college football slate is mid The

242
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 2: NFL slate, I think is absolute fire. And this is

243
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 2: weird because I feel exceptionally good about this week. I

244
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: have all week. I feel really, really confident in some

245
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: of these picks. So green Bay Packers minus fort was

246
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: my first bet. It was actually I got four and

247
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: a half, I think, and it would go up, it

248
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 2: went down, and I'm on them and for one hundred

249
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 2: percent taking the Packers in the contest. I know a

250
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: lot of people like Jacksonville and Trevor Lawrence and Doug

251
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 2: Peterson and green Bay a little overrated. And remember green

252
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,439
Speaker 2: Bay went to the Rams and they only won by five.

253
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: Are you sure they can go to Jacksonville and kind

254
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 2: of a sleepy spot here? Yeah, yeah, I do. I'm

255
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: a believer Jordan Love and this offense. I think Lafleur excellent.

256
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: You know, Lafleur's got to get some props for Coach

257
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: of the Year, just for the Malik willis stuff. Anyways,

258
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 2: Green Bay one of my favorite bets of the week,

259
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: as I said with Doug Kazaria and yesterday, by the way,

260
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: shout out to you guys. A lot of you guys

261
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 2: like the gambling talk longer than usual, not just breaking

262
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 2: down games. A Giant six and a half, Giants plus six,

263
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: they are six in the contest. I will ninety nine

264
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 2: point nine percent beyond the Giants. Yes, it's primetime and

265
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones has lost like I think, fifteen of sixteen

266
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: primetime games. He is not a good quarterback, but at

267
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 2: least he's on the road here. This is simply too

268
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: big of a number for the Pittsburgh Zeelers to lay.

269
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 2: I know they smashed my Jets, and I'm sure they'll

270
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 2: beat both New York teams back to back. But just

271
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: a quick reminder, the Giants should win the line of

272
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 2: scrimmage defensively. I know TJ. Watt against a backup left

273
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: tackle is hell on earth. Dable got the dreaded vote

274
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: of confidence. How about this, you get the vote of

275
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 2: confidence from the owner, Dable? And what if they get

276
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 2: smashed forty to three, then what you know? We already

277
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: know Daniel Zones got bench last week, but he's the starter.

278
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 2: He was ticked off. Maybe he's a motivational spot for

279
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 2: Danny Dimes aka Danny loose Change. Yeah, got the Giants up.

280
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 2: I don't know why more people aren't talking about the

281
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 2: Falcons favored by two and a half against Tampa. So

282
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 2: these two teams met just a little while ago on Thursday.

283
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 2: It was a barn burner. The Bucks dominated the first half,

284
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 2: came out on fire, and Kirk Cousins led a comeback.

285
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: He threw for five hundred yards. He was lights out

286
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: and they get the win. Now you've got Tampa on

287
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: a short week divisional matchup down their top two receivers

288
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 2: in Evans and Godwin. And I know some people will say, well,

289
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: they've still got the three running backs and blah blah blah.

290
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 2: I just want to remind people how far CJ. Stroud

291
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 2: has fallen and this season when Nico Collins has not

292
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 2: been available, he's a different quarterback. Mike Evans and Godwin

293
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 2: have been tearing up the league. They might have the

294
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: top like if you combine the top two receivers stats

295
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 2: this year, they might be number one in the league.

296
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: Godwin in the slot over the middle, Evans deep and like,

297
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: sure they have a good fleet. I like the kid mcmellan.

298
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: I grabbed him in fantasy, but the reality is in

299
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: such a quick turnaround time and the familiarity the Falcons have.

300
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 2: I don't know. I like the Falcons here. I know

301
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 2: they don't win any games easily, and they looked bad

302
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 2: last week, but I thought that was more about Seattle

303
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 2: than the Falcons. The other quarterback who had looked pedestrian

304
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: without his guys was Matt Stafford. You know, prior to

305
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: getting Pooka and Cooper cup back, like Stafford and the

306
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 2: Rams look like one of the worst teams in the

307
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: league without your receivers, Like, receivers matter greatly. And I

308
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 2: don't know, guys, remember Aj Brown out for the Eagles

309
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 2: and what happened? They looked terrible. They got smashed by Tampa.

310
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: So you take away Baker's top two targets. I'm sorry.

311
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 2: I like Falcons here minus two and a half almost

312
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 2: certainly will be on them in the contest Miami Dolphins.

313
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: This is weird, so like him a three. Bet it right.

314
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 2: We got Miami at three and a half. We talked

315
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 2: about it with Doug yesterday. Well, guess what happened on

316
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 2: Thursday afternoon. It's looking like two is a lot to start,

317
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 2: and this line has swored up to four and a half. Now,

318
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 2: before you think that's an overreaction, this line probably would

319
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 2: have been six if Tua had been playing all along.

320
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 2: Like we know, Arizona's not very good. The secondary is horrible,

321
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: and I think you could make a credible argument that

322
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins going from Tua to whoever the hell

323
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 2: their backup is, is one of the biggest drop offs

324
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 2: in the league because the backup is so bad and

325
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 2: Tua fits the offense so perfectly. I mean, they look

326
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 2: unplayable with Wadalin Hill, did absolutely nothing with Snoop Huntley

327
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 2: and whoever the hell the other was it, Tim Boyle. Yeah,

328
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: that's right, Like they couldn't do anything offensively. Now you

329
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: get Tua in there, It's not like Arizona's got a

330
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 2: nasty pass rush. I'm surprised this isn't bigger. I don't

331
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 2: want to say this is one of the bigger bets

332
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 2: of the season because Tua is coming off a concussion,

333
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 2: but there are some reports out there that Tua could

334
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 2: have come back earlier that it was kind of one

335
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: of those things like, hey, we need to do this

336
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: for the league. He's got to sit out that it

337
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 2: had the field. Nobody came out and said that, but

338
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 2: it certainly feels like Miami could open a can here

339
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 2: on Arizona. And here's a fun stat that I on

340
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: earthed Kyler Marie is Owen eleven straight up after a win.

341
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 2: So he won Monday night and they got lucky to

342
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 2: win that. You guys realize that if you watch a game,

343
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: Owen eleven straight up after a win has not won

344
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 2: back to back starts since October of twenty twenty one.

345
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 2: Now what's that about? Is it about the competition? Is

346
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 2: it about Kyler maybe gets the win, I'm the man,

347
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: Maybe he stops doing his quote unquote homework. I don't know.

348
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: There's a lot of potential theories as to why there

349
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 2: he's oh and eleven after a win, But I just

350
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 2: don't like this spot for Arizona late Monday game. He

351
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 2: got a travel cross country for an early kickoff. Miami's

352
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 2: getting their quarterback back. They feel like, hey, second half

353
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: of the season, we got a shot here. The Jet stink.

354
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 2: The Patriots are nothing special. We can get into the

355
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 2: playoffs again, and I think Miami comfortably handles this game.

Speaker 2: You guys know I'm on the Niners. We don't need

361
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 2: to talk about that at all. It looks like I

362
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 2: made a horrible mistake betting them early at five. Yeah, five,

363
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: it's down to four, probably heading lower. And listen. Rob

364
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 2: g got on my case earlier this season where he's like,

365
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: why are you betting so early in the week, And

366
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 2: I'm like, I think I see something that other people don't. Well,

367
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 2: I clearly misjudged the Niners. However, however, I will point

368
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 2: out that Deebo cmuel was back at practice Thursday looking fine. Now,

369
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,239
Speaker 2: then the question will turn into wake did he have

370
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: pneumonia or pneumonia like symptoms. I don't know, because it

371
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 2: feels weird that you could have pneumonia, which can knock

372
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: you down for a week or two, and he was

373
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 2: down for like three days and then back at football practice.

374
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 2: I mean, Jennings not practicing has been greatly concerned if

375
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 2: you give me Debo healthy, Jennings back, Kittle and Mason,

376
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 2: I think Niners role here. If now you're talking, well,

377
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 2: Mason's kind of dinged up, Kittle's ding dub, Jennings is out,

378
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 2: and Debo we'll see then it gets dicey. But again

379
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 2: this comes back to what I said earlier in the week.

380
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: This Kyle Shanahan's scheme has given Dallas tons of fits.

381
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: They just obliterate them. Zimmer does not know how to

382
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: defend this offense at all, and it's the forty nine

383
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 2: Ers just dominate this series. Now, the positive news if

384
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: you're a Cowboys fan is Mike McCarthy off a bye

385
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 2: in his career thirteen three and one against the spread.

386
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 2: He's three and one against the spread in a bye

387
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: with Dallas after a bye with Dallas, which is really good.

388
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 2: But like, is Michael Parson's back. I don't know that

389
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 2: there are fundamental changes to be made on this team,

390
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 2: but you know surely he's been stuff because he's got

391
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: a show. Well in this game, they can't get blasted.

392
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 2: Remember last year when Dak was like brought her up

393
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 2: to MVP. This was a huge Sunday Night or Monday

394
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 2: night game and san Fran won like forty one to ten.

395
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 2: It was a bloodbath. Now san Fran was at the

396
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 2: height of its powers. They clearly will not be in

397
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 2: this one. I did bet the Bears. Interesting note from

398
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,640
Speaker 2: Adam Schefter. Now, you guys know, I like to get

399
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 2: into the conspiracy theories of reporters and all this stuff.

400
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: So Adam Scheft, let's back up. Ian Rappaport came out

401
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:33,719
Speaker 2: and said, it's trending toward Marcus Mariota starting on Sunday.

402
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 2: He said that I believed Wednesday morning when it was

403
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: like Daniels is not going to practice, and he wrote

404
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 2: the word trending toward Mariota. Okay, then what happens on Thursday?

405
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 2: Adam Schefter says, wait a minute, Jane Daniels is going

406
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 2: to try to practice on Friday? Now? Is that gamesmanship

407
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 2: from Dan Quinn and Cliff Kingsbury. Hey, hey, hey, we

408
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 2: don't want them preparing for Mariota. We want him being

409
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 2: ready for Jane Daniels. We got to keep this out

410
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: or is it real that Jadon Daniels could go throw

411
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 2: on a flackjack and get the hell out there. I'm

412
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 2: gonna guess know this is the middle of the season,

413
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 2: non divisional matchup. I don't think Washington's terrified of the Bears.

414
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, guys, think about this, Caleb Williams,

415
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: who knows him better than maybe anyone in the NFL

416
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 2: outside the Bears, Cliff Kingsbury, who was with him last

417
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 2: year at USC, you know, and you think he's been

418
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 2: talking to Dan Quinn about strengths and weaknesses and how

419
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 2: to get how to get to him, what he can

420
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: and can't do, what he's really really struggled against. I mean,

421
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 2: Kingsbury knows Caleb as well as anybody in the NFL.

422
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 2: So there is a world where Washington's defense steps up

423
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: and shuts down the Bears that we are talking about

424
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears here. I just think Bears off a bye,

425
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: everybody back and healthy in the fold. Probably some new

426
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 2: wrinkles to the offense. Right, So I'm on the Bears here.

427
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 2: I like Chicago a lot in this spot. What else

428
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 2: do we have?

429
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: We have?

430
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 2: We talked about Green Bay. I believe don't need to

431
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 2: go into that if you check out the YouTube of

432
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: the interview with Kazarian or the podcast A few totals,

433
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: I'm on over forty in Saints Chargers under forty seven

434
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 2: and a half in Cowboys Niners under forty two in

435
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 2: Jets Patriots under forty seven and a half in Atlanta Tampa,

436
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 2: And again we covered some of this stuff with Kazarian.

437
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: The only other number I had was Chargers minus seven

438
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 2: and a half. That's down to seven and again that

439
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: was another early in the week bet on the Saints

440
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 2: not getting healthy in time. Well, they are getting healthy,

441
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 2: but it is going to still be Spencer Rattler under center.

442
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 2: And we know the Saints defense cannot stop a nosebleed

443
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 2: at this point. And the Chargers want to do one thing,

444
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 2: and that's run, run, run. This is probably a twenty

445
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: five carry game for Dobbins, which is dicey coming off

446
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: Monday night football. So maybe they go to my guy Vidal,

447
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 2: who I picked up in fantasy. I told my brother

448
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 2: to pick him up. This could be the game, Gus.

449
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 2: The bus maybe comes back. But I would not be

450
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 2: shocked if if the Chargers basically just mill the clock

451
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: here and ran the football down their throats. I like

452
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 2: the Chargers don't seven and a half. It's kind of

453
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,719
Speaker 2: a big number. I'll talk about the other big numbers. Briefly,

454
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 2: the Browns Ravens. It's a tough one. Jameis Winston stepping in.

455
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 2: He can't be worse than Deshaun Watson, we know that,

456
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 2: but his weapons are not extraordinary. I just I know

457
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 2: I gassed up the Ravens after their comeback win over

458
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,959
Speaker 2: the Bucks down ten nothing and then just smoke them

459
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 2: the rest of the game. I don't know. Jim Schwartz

460
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 2: probably's gonna be ready with some stuff here, but I

461
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,719
Speaker 2: just I cannot get involved with the Browns. I know

462
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 2: other people are really gonna be like, I, come on,

463
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 2: it's too big of a number for the Ravens to

464
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 2: lay divisional matchup. Come on, and yeah, you're probably right.

465
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 2: For me, it would be Browns or nothing. But I

466
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 2: just it's just so ough. It's disgusting. Can they get

467
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: to like seventeen points? I doubt it, but maybe in

468
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 2: Djoku goes wild. Remember this Ravens defense is not great.

469
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but I'm probably proably gonna end up being

470
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: on bo Nicks and the Broncos. Haven't bet it yet.

471
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 2: I'm hoping we'll see the dumb money on the Carolina

472
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 2: Panthers and Bryce Young because if you can explain to

473
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 2: me how Bryce Young gets more than fourteen points, I

474
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 2: would be stunned. You would need like a special team scorer,

475
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 2: at least one catastrophic turnover by Nicks or two setting

476
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 2: up with field position. But even then, this Panthers defense

477
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 2: can't stop anyone. Like Marcus Mariota came in. I don't

478
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 2: even know if he'd appeared in a game in years.

479
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 2: I probably had, And Marcus Mariota looked like he looked

480
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 2: like an NFL starter against the Panthers like they are,

481
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 2: they disinterested, I don't know. It was just absolutely bizarre

482
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 2: how bad they are. So I'm looking at the Broncos,

483
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 2: which would be a dumb bet. A lot of favorites here.

484
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 2: What dogs do I have? I have the Giants as

485
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 2: a dog. Oh my gosh, is that the only underdog

486
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 2: I like? Well that never works out. Well, yeah, so

487
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 2: you've been warned. Anyways, have a great weekend. Back on Monday.

488
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: Talk to you then,
