00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're good.

10
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 2: Just loose, no worries.

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that every day? Are we not loose? Because

12
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: all I do is just talk nonsense?

13
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear. This is that time of the year, right.

14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 2: The bags under my eyes will show you exactly what

15
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: I've been dealing with in terms of work and everything

16
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: else has been going on in the world right now.

17
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, look, we had a good week last week.

18
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 2: Let's let's do it again. We're slowly but surely climbing

19
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: up the these leader boards here with the DraftKings Picks contest.

20
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so let's go through it as we always do.

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: And again we are going to as we always do here,

22
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: get to every game on the slate because that is

23
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: what we do. But hopefully we will settle on our

24
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: five picks for the Draft Kings contest. I'm also going

25
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: to give you because the lines they come out and

26
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: they lock on Wednesday morning, I believe, is when they

27
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: come out for the DraftKings contest. So sometimes they're predicting,

28
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: as Matt has explained, where they think the line is

29
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: going to end up. But I'll also reference our betanalyzer

30
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: over at betting pros dot com, which really check out,

31
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: which basically has the contensus lines. You can also check

32
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: on my book and I'll let you know either against

33
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: the spread. We'll talk about maybe sprinkling some over unders

34
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: as well, even though they're not in the DraftKings contest

35
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: where the majority of experts are leaning. So I believe

36
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: we were what were we eight and said? No, we

37
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: were eleven and nine coming into last week, right. The

38
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: picks that we wound up going with were the Steelers

39
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: laying seven and a half to the Eagles chick which

40
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: we won and we knew about that. We went public

41
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: with the Panthers getting two and a half from the

42
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: Falcons didn't matter. We won. We went with the Colts

43
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: laying one and a half against the Browns, which we

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: sort of. You know, we talked about afterwards we weren't

45
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: sure we're going to do it, but we wound up

46
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: going with that.

47
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: Game in the forty nine Ers were the one games

48
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: that we because we had three that we knew and

49
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: we were good, and then we had two that we

50
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 2: kind of were wishy washy on and those two are

51
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 2: the ones we lost.

52
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the forty nine ers laying eight and a half,

53
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: they almost almost covered against the Dolphins. They lost by

54
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: thirty six, I believe, but we did go after Matt

55
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: berated me on the podcast. This is what, by the way,

56
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: I love. I wish everybody could just have a private

57
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: view of like my messages with Matt, because literally I

58
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: was like, I kind of want the Vikings getting six

59
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: and a half from the Seahawks, and he was like,

60
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: you want to go against Russ in prime time with

61
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. Are you crazy? And then legitimately I check

62
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: with him every Saturday night. I was like, you know

63
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: what I'm thinking about? I think I like the Viking

64
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: cause I was like.

65
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 2: Wait, well no, everything I liked the Vikings. I mean

66
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: I always preface is that like just because I think something,

67
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,119
Speaker 2: I go and talk to people. I'm not someone who

68
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: thinks that I'm smarter than everybody else, and it's me

69
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: versus the world. I go and do research and I

70
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: ask those people behind the counter, and I normally run

71
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: our picks by them, and I say, okay, what do

72
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: you think? And the one that they said, we're uh

73
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: was Seattle, And I was like, you got to be

74
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: kidding me, And they're like, all the metrics, you would

75
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: think that it's Seattle, but that line's too heavy, and

76
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: lo and behold, Seahawks win. But the line was too heavy.

77
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we knew. Don't doubt me. And of

78
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: course I have earned the right to whenever I want

79
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: pick a Jets game. As the Personal destroyed the Jets.

80
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: Now we'll see whether or not I think this is

81
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: a week worth taking, but I have unfettered authority. Now

82
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: after that game, we are in one hundred and seventy

83
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: ninth place out of six hundred eight nins. That's not

84
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: bad at all. Now we need a week, okay, we

85
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: need like the four and one or the five and

86
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: zero week to really get there. But so long as

87
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: we avoid any of these like really crushing weeks, because

88
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: it's it's a landline out there. We're going to keep

89
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: steadily moving up. We've gone from like two fiftieth and

90
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks it's going three and two.

91
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: We moved up to one hundred and seventy nine, so

92
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: we are getting there. We are fourteen and eleven, so

93
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: that is solid, So let's keep it going.

94
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 2: Are we really well, we're three games or five hundred now?

95
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, we're at fifty six percent. Yeah, we're fourteen

96
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: and eleven.

97
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 2: Now. In most years, the winning you have to be

98
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: around In the beginning part of the of the Westgate

99
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 2: Super Contest, if you scored anywhere above sixty five percent,

100
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 2: you normally were in the money. This now because it's

101
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: been so crazy, now you need to be somewhere in

102
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: the neighborhood of seventy two seventy three percent to win.

103
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: But given the number of people in our contest, I

104
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: would say that sixty percent is going to be pretty decent.

105
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: So if we keep if we move up a little

106
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 2: bit and get around sixty percent, I think we're going

107
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 2: to be pretty good here across the entire season.

108
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: So right now, the payoff structure cuts at sixty five percent,

109
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: So if you're sixty five percent right now, you'd be catching.

110
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: But what's fascinating, Matt, is so almost everyone who has

111
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: cashed this, This is actually fascinating. Almost everyone who was

112
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: cashed has used at least one of their bye weeks. Wow,

113
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: like already yet a reminder in the DraftKings contest to

114
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: get two by weeks okay of the sixteen weeks, so

115
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: it only goes through week sixteen. You can take two

116
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: weeks off, and Matt and I've kind of been saving them.

117
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: I've been a little more willing to use them if

118
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, we didn't use it last week,

119
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: which is good because we went through and two. But

120
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: the vast majority, I mean, you've got guys, who are

121
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, thirteen to twenty, You've got some of you's

122
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: two they're ten out of fifteen and they're cashing right now,

123
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 1: so they're stuck.

124
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 2: They must have forgot. The only way I could see

125
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 2: you using two different weeks is like you just forgot

126
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: to enter in you something got coming caught up with

127
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 2: you or something, because yeah, why would you use both

128
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: knowing what potentially is coming in November and December?

129
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah? I know, I know, I don't get it. But

130
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: I would say, because.

131
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: Hel phone would be to be leading the contest and

132
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 2: just sit on it, yeah, and just say sure, you guys,

133
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: come catch us. Like it would be not that we're

134
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: going to be in first place, but if you were

135
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 2: to have a free bye week, to have a bye

136
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,559
Speaker 2: week off and be like, you guys, come get us.

137
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like it all right. Well, anyway, I would say,

138
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: of the people who are cashing right now, at least

139
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: eighty percent have used one by week.

140
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 2: Wow, So good, okay.

141
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: Interesting, all right, So anyway, everybody is fascinated with the

142
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: whole story of the DraftKings Championship, of course, but let's

143
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: get into this week's games. That's what we're doing here.

144
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: A couple of reminders. One, no prop bets I failed

145
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: last week. I usually get Matt a couple of prop

146
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: bets the night before. I am on a well. My

147
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: house is on a well. That's where we draw water

148
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: and are well ran dry. And when you have yes

149
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: corrupt turn out in New Hampshire.

150
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 2: So I know that my brothers nor getting former and

151
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: Western mass he's praying for rain.

152
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how it is. And so when you have

153
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: a family of four and a stressed out wife and

154
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: two kids, and you can't flush toilets and you can't

155
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: take showers. Things like that get in the way. I

156
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: will not fail you again. My well runs dry. I

157
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: will still have three props waiting, I promise, and if

158
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: you want those props. Matt obviously should be listening to

159
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: the Baalley Juice podcast, my favorite podcast other than this one,

160
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: where he gives every day fifteen minutes in the morning,

161
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: he gives out his best bets and he will give props.

162
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: In addition, Sunday mornings eleven am to twelve pm on

163

Speaker 1: the Betting Pros YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash Stunning Pros,

164
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,320

Speaker 1: pick is on the slate.

170
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: Do I need to describe what? Do I need to

171
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 2: say it?

172
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: Yeah? You need to say it. I don't know what

173
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: it is?

174
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: Yes you do?

175
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: No, I don't what is it?

176
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 2: Yes? You do? You know?

177
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: What is? All right? Hold on?

178
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: Oh?

179
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: Well, I got it. I'm sorry, I do know exactly

180
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: what it is. What it is, insert team playing the

181
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: Buffalo bit is that right?

182
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 2: And they just happen to be playing the best team

183
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: in football.

184
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: Okay, the Chiefs are laying three and a half to

185
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills in Buffalo, and this is now on

186
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: Monday Night. I believe did this?

187
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 2: This is supposed to be the name Thurday Night Monday

188
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 2: Night game? Correct? Yep?

189
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Matt, make your case as to why

190
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: you do. I mean, you're just a little.

191
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: Bill's defense is absolute trash. And even if White comes

192
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: back in places which he looks like he's.

193
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: Going to, he does.

194
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 2: Yes, they can't stop any one. And this is a

195
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: pissed off team who is really angry about losing to

196
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: the Raiders. And you've got a team that I think

197
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 2: is going to come up and put a number. I'm

198
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 2: gonna put it at forty. The Chiefs will score forty

199
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: on the Buffalo Bills coming up on Monday Night.

200
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I have this one on my list, so

201
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that this will be one that we

202
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: will go with. And I'm never gonna run away from

203
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: backing Patrick Mahomes under any circumstances. I do not despise

204
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: the Bills as Matt that. I mean, I can't imagine

205
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: how happy you were on Tuesday night.

206
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: Because it's funny because people dn me from the Daily

207
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 2: Juice audience and they were like, why didn't you rub

208
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: it in more that Josh Allen threw two picks and

209
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: looked horrible, Like you said he was going to one

210
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: of those.

211
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: One of those obviously was not in any way his

212
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: fault that bounced off, but still he threw two picks going.

213
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: Through two picks, and the pick that he threw to

214
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 2: Martin Malcolm Butler was pathetic.

215
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: Well, he threw two to Malcolm Butler.

216
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, but for the second one was a real bad one.

217
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: The first one was a deflection.

218
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: The first one was a deflection.

219
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 2: That one wasn't his fault, yeah, the second one was

220
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: one hundred percent of his fault. And I just I

221
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 2: don't need to take a victory lap on it because

222
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 2: it's just like, yeah, this is who this team is.

223
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is a regression coming. And

224
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: I'm telling you on November the first, when the Patriots

225
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 2: play against the Bills, that game will be for first

226
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: place in the division, and everybody thought it was over.

227
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: Bills are gonna run away with it. Oh my gosh.

228
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: They were breathlessly talking up an MVP candidacy for Josh Allen.

229
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 2: No Chiefs all right, late three and a half.

230
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: So I am also in on this there are You know.

231
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: I do not feel the same way about the Bills

232
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: that Matt does, and I do think there's a chance

233
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: they're going to be a little angry here. They were

234
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: pretty embarrassed on national television, essentially by the Titans. They

235
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 1: are getting healthier. John Brown has even looks like I

236
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: think he practiced fully today, so he'll probably play. That

237
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: does do a benefit. But again, the Chiefs coming off

238
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: the loss in particular is really what They're gonna.

239
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 2: Be great, and they should have lost to the Patriots. Yeah,

240
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: if Cam Note plays in that game. They're coming off

241
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 2: two losses. They've been they're trending in the wrong direction,

242
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 2: So that's why I like them to bounce back.

243
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: Now. They're gonna be down Sammy Watkins in this game,

244
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: not that big deal because Migel Hardman is very good

245
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: and he will play. I think they're gonna look to

246
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: get back on track here, So I'm not scared off

247
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: by the three and a half. It is in Buffalo,

248
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: but there are no fans and it's not cold yet,

249
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: so I don't think the home field advantage matters that

250
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: much other than the familiarity. And again, not a hugely

251
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: short week because it's a Monday night game, but they

252
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: it is a short week for the Bills since they

253
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: played Tuesday. The line, the consensus line on betting bros

254
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: Like Combatech and Jack, has moved to minus four, so

255
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: it is trending in the direction that we are thinking.

256
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: And sixty eight percent of the consensus of experts against

257
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: the spread are favoring the Chiefs, so we are not alone.

258
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: And I'm fine. Basically, I'll put that one in pen

259
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 1: because I'm I'm good to go. Though. Okay, let me

260
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: know how you feel about this one, Matt, because I

261
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: don't love that many games this week, but I do

262
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: like a few, and the Chiefs and the Bills were

263
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: one of them. I know it's a divisional game, which

264
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: usually scares me off, but I think in this game

265
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: there are a lot of warning signs for the Browns

266
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: who are flying high, and I kind of like the

267
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: Steelers laying three and a half. Here's my case number one,

268
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: obij I don't want to speculate because we don't know,

269
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: but he left today with an illness. I guess he

270
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten his test pack unless I've missed it. Twitter

271
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: is down by the way as we record this, or

272
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 1: at least it was, so I don't know if he

273
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: got that. Jarvis Landry also backed up, has missed practiced.

274
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: When I hear Baker Mayfield is trending in the right

275
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 1: direction to play, like the Ribs are bothering him, that

276
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: the Steelers defense is gonna I know the Browns have

277
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: a good offensive line, but they get a ton of pressure.

278
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna batter and bruise him, and I

279
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: think they're gonna do a lot of stuff. Meanwhile, the

280
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: Steelers Deanthony Johnson is practicing, so he's probably gonna play.

281
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: They found their gem and Chase Claypool. Hopefully they know

282
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: how to get involved. This is just a better team.

283
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: And I don't love Mike Tomlin like backing him under

284
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: any of these circumstances, but I do just think right now,

285
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: given that Mayfield is banged up, given that OBJ potentially

286
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: won't play, given that Landry is banged up. Given that

287
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: again they're down Nick Chubb and I know Kareem Hunt

288
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: looks great, but it is a loss. So for me

289
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: divisional game, I get it, but I'm still willing to

290
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: take That's my number one pick, the Steelers. I think

291
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: three and a half to the Browns.

292
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 2: It's my number two pick.

293
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, okay, this is.

294
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: We don't need to do very much with it. It's

295
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 2: my number two pick in the week. And I often

296
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: whenever I talk Steelers, I go talk to Dave Shriff,

297
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: pais from Pittsburgh, yep. And the number I think he

298
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: told me is Cleveland has won one time in their

299
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 2: last twenty.

300
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 1: In Pittsburgh yep.

301
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, I feel pretty good about taking the Pittsburgh Steelers.

302
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: But three out of the spread is the consensus spread

303
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: on betting process. Again, I'm looking at the bed analyzer,

304
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 1: which is a really cool tool because you can look

305
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: at the varies different you know how it is over

306
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: under on the money line, and just where people are

307
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: coming out and where it's moving. It is still at

308
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: three and a half and sixty seven percent around the

309
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: Steelers and the consensus, by the way, just so you know,

310
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: it's not an overwhelming thing that just like, well, we

311
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: like the favorites at all. That's not the way it works.

312
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: I mean, people are putting in you know a lot

313
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: of times you see value in the underdogs. But right

314
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: now both our picks have essentially two thirds of the

315
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: people who are making picks on vettingpros dot com along

316
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: with us. I feel good about it. Okay, I feel

317
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: good about too. Let's get some dissension, Matt, who's your

318
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: number three?

319
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: All right? I don't know if it's gonna be dissension

320
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: or not, but I look at this Green Bay team

321
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 2: and I'm really, I really like what I'm seeing out

322
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 2: of this offense. I love the balance. I think lafloor

323
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 2: and I thought there was some potential for Aaron Rodgers

324
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: and Matt Lafleur to hate each other this year. I

325
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: thought the drafting of Jordan Love was going to drive

326
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 2: a wedge in this locker room, and it's been the opposite.

327
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: No one's even talking about this kid. Now. They blew

328
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,839
Speaker 2: a first round pick on a quarterback. Never should have

329
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 2: done that. But they're getting healthy. This defense for the

330
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 2: Bucks is decent, but I just I'm a little concerned

331
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 2: about what this offense is looking like for the Bucks.

332
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I thought Gronk was going to be a

333
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: really big weapon in the red zone. He's been exult

334
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 2: He's been literally invisible in the red zone. I think

335
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 2: the running game is okay, but they're very banged up

336
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: still in with their running back depth. I think their

337
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: offensive line is okay but not great. Brede's getting hit,

338
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 2: and I think this Packer's defense is a little bit

339
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: sneaky here. I like Green Bay. The number has moved

340
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 2: quite a bit in favor, I think towards the Tampa

341
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 2: Bay Bucks, which is really kind of interesting, and I'm

342
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: kind of confused by the line movement. I like green

343
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: Bay minus two and a half here on the road

344
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: under a field goal.

345
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: So what is interesting is that the Bucks are getting

346
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: two and a half points. You said it's moved towards

347
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: the Bucks. The consensus line is actually only the Bucks

348
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: plus one. Okay at the moment, right, So that's basically

349
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: where you were going with it. I'm not sure. I

350
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: don't have a good feel for this game. That's basically

351
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: what I'm going to say here the Packers. Okay, first

352
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: of all, I like how delicate you were being in

353
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: describing you know what this looked like coming into the

354
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: season for the Packers. Yeah, it looked like a disaster.

355
00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: They basically ignored Rogers coming in whatsoever into the draft. However,

356
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: they are playing extremely well. But they've beaten the Vikings

357
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: when the Vikings didn't have a secondary to know what

358
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: they were doing, the Lions, the Falcons, and the Saints,

359
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: which I'll give him the Saints, you know that was

360
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: a good win. I when you first messaged me with

361
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: this game, I thought you were taking the Bucks side

362
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: of it. Is that true? By the way I was,

363
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: and you got talked out of it.

364
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: No. I went and read a couple of different stories

365
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 2: and looked at a couple of different lines, and then

366
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: talked to a friend of mine from Pro Football Focus,

367
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 2: and they're very concerned about the Bucks offense. Okay, that

368
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 2: they have very low grades on a lot of a

369
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: lot of the players. Injuries or no injuries. No, Godwin

370
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: being out is significant. Evan's not being healthy is significant.

371
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: I think Godwin may play, that's the thing. He returned

372
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: to practice.

373
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: If he plays it, okay, but he's still not. Him

374
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: and Brady are still not on the same page. And

375
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 2: I'm still concerned about I mean, O. J. Howard's gone

376
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 2: for the year, Gronk has been I mean, not a

377
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: part of this offense at all, And I'm just I'm

378
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 2: concerned about this offense for Tampa. And I think I

379
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: think that the Bucks are going to score, are gonna

380
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 2: give up thirty here to the Packers. So I mean,

381
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 2: Demante Adams coming back.

382
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, Adams is coming back, and and Vi Devea is

383
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: you know, that's a big loss them.

384
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: And you got Aaron Jones running the football, and their

385
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: best run stopping defensive lineman is not playing.

386
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: They're run their defense is so good. I think this

387
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: is one where I'm probably I think I'm on the

388
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: other side, so I think i'd probably stay away from it.

389
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 1: I don't love like, it wasn't one of my top

390
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: choices to be like give me the Bucks or anything

391
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: like that. Also, I get it they should have won that.

392
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I realized they lost to the Bears, but

393
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: they should have won that game pretty easily, despite the

394
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: fact that they nobody a wide receiver, even you know,

395
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: Evans was banged up. I think an angry Brady if

396
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: he gets Godwin back. You know, I don't know, I

397
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: don't want to bet against them in Taba, so I

398
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: think that's a stay away from me. But that's fine.

399
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: You're not gonna like this game. I can guarantee that

400
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: I like the Bears getting two and a half from

401
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: the Panthers in Carolina. Here is why the Panthers have

402
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: looked very good last couple of games, but they don't

403
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: do great against good defenses. Seventeen points against the Bucks,

404
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: twenty one points against the Chargers. It's not like they're

405
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: putting up a ton of points. I don't think they're

406
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: going to be able to put up a ton of

407
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: points against the Bears, who are essentially off of Mini

408
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: BI because they got it on Thursday, and now I

409
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: get it, it's in Carolina. I get it. Nick Foles

410
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: at many points in that game looked terrible. But this

411
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: is kind of a classic case of selling a team

412
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: when they're high. And I think the Panthers are not

413
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: as good as they looked. I think their defense is

414
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: still bad. I think Dave Montgomery's finally going to have

415
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: a really good game in this one. I think the

416
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: Bears defense is really what does it for me? So

417
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: I like the Bears getting two and a half from

418
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: the Panthers in Carolina.

419
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 2: Teddy Bridgewater is sixteen and four against the spread and

420
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: plus twenty games. Yeah, so you're going against Joe Brady

421
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 2: and a team that looks better and better and better

422
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: every week.

423
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. This is classic case of selling. I de SENSEI

424
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: by the way, is moving in. This is moving in

425
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: the Bears.

426
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but yeah, I know. I can't take

427
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: this Bears offense. I just it's just such a train wreck.

428
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 2: It's just such a disaster right now. In terms of

429
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 2: if Bridgewater gets rolling and puts up some points, I.

430
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 1: Just well, I think the Bears road.

431
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just Jacimra.

432
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: Road, you know, home road, I.

433
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 2: Guess there in Carolina though, Yeah, I know.

434
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: But you know, when it's very different when you have

435
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: you know, seven thousand however many fans they have or whatever,

436
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: you know.

437
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I've seen people starting to push Matt Rule

438
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 2: for Coach of the Year.

439
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: Right I I That is classic, though, That's exactly what

440
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That is classic overreaction to a couple of

441
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: wins off teams that aren't that great and being like,

442
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: look at this, you think if.

443
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: You don't think the Bears are a good team they'll do.

444
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: No, I don't.

445
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 2: I don't like it. So they're in the same vein

446
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 2: as all the teams they've beaten.

447
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: But I think they have a legitimate defense. That's what

448
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 1: I think about the Bears. So I think that the

449
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 1: fact that the Bears are four and one right now

450
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: is silly. But I do think that they have a

451
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: legitimate defense, and I think that that's where the Panthers

452
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: offense is going to struggle. I still think, you know

453
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: and all, that the Panthers run defense, which is terrible

454
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: to begin with. They're down a few players now coming

455
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: into this game as well. So I really do think

456
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: that the style that Matt Naggie probably wants to run

457
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: in this game, he's going to be able to run.

458
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: So I like the Bears. I'm gonna be on the

459
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: Bears just on my own, but that's fine outside the

460
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: kind of we agreed on the first two, disagreed on

461
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 1: the next two. Let's go to your next pick. By

462
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: the way, I will say sixty one percent at the

463
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 1: right now, the consensus lines the Panthers laying one. That

464
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: sixty one percent are on the Panthers, So they're on

465
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: your side on that one. I don't care. I'll be

466
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: on an island.

467
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.

468
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: Mean, all right, go ahead for your next pick.

469
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 2: So the next bunch here, those are the three like

470
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: I like, Carolina, Steelers and the Chiefs in Carolina, the

471
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 2: three that I like a lot.

472
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: The next way you liked Carolina. That was one of

473
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 1: your picks.

474
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I don't know if I wrote it

475
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 2: to you or not, but I've got my list.

476
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 1: No, no, you don't have to not that you wrote it

477
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: to me. But even now you were going to say.

478
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: Carolina, Yeah, it's all right, it's on my list of

479
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 2: of I've got basically, Steelers will no let me Yeah,

480
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: Steelers in the Chiefs from my top two. Then Carolina

481
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 2: came in three number four. My four, five, and six

482
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: picks here are all kind of in the same boat

483
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 2: of like, I'm not comfortable. I don't like it, but

484
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 2: I will.

485
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: Well, you listed the Packers as well, all right.

486
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I did like Green Bay. I just sorry

487
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 2: I crossed out Green Bay because you said no across

488
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 2: North Carolina. So the next one is Dallas, and this

489
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 2: is going to be a very popular pick here, and

490
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 2: it's the Cardinals. There's something really wrong with this Cardinals team.

491
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 2: Chandler Jones is now up for the year, their defense

492
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 2: can't really tackle anybody, and Andy Dalton's not an awful

493
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 2: quarterback by any means. I think there is a win

494
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 2: one for the Gipper type of moment here for the

495
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys. This is going to be a very public play.

496
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 2: We're catching two and a half points at home in

497
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 2: prime time on Monday night, and I love Kyler Murray

498
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 2: to pick up some nice yardage here. But you know,

499
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 2: you know, Vanderla may play in this game, which would

500
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 2: be a real big step up for that defense. He

501
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 2: was able to go. He's back at practice. I just

502
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 2: think there's something up here with this Cardinals team, and

503
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 2: I think they go back to being what they always

504
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 2: should have been. I think with Dallas, and that's a

505
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 2: Zeke heavy team, run the football, pound the rock, play

506
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 2: ball control, and try to keep their defense off the field.

507
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 2: So I think Dallas catching two and a half points

508
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 2: is the side I like there.

509
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: It is. I mean, the spread is moving towards Dallas.

510
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: If I like a side, it would be Dallas. But

511
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: this from the guy who is like I can never

512
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins in primetime. You want to get Andy Dalton

513
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: in primetime, that's where you want to go.

514
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 2: It's more it's more like I think the team rallies.

515
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 2: I think the same like with the Texans and the

516
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: Texans coming back and winning that game against Jacksonville, and

517
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 2: I mean, jackson was so bad. But I just I

518
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 2: think there's something up with this Cardinals offense. And if

519
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 2: you look at the passing attack, for I mean, they're

520
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 2: not giving the ball to Hopkins as much as they

521
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 2: should be, and there's been some regression there from the

522
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: quarterback in Murray. So he's still run the ball a lot,

523
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 2: but he's not throwing the ball down the field nearly

524
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 2: as much as you would like. And all these safeties

525
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 2: are creeping up to the line of scrimmage and saying,

526
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: go ahead, throw over the top, and they don't do it.

527
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 2: So I don't know what to make of what's going

528
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 2: on with the Cardinals. It's more of a fade on

529
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 2: the Cardinals than it is a take on Andy Dolon.

530
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say this, I don't hate it. I'll put

531
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: it to the side. Okay, it's the right side of

532
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 1: the pick. I think it is, by the way, so

533
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: on the bed analyzer, I can sort by heavily picked

534
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 1: one side to none. It's fifty to fifty. Okay, the

535
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys one and a half. I'm going to be on

536
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: the Cowboys when I picked the game. I'm just not

537
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 1: trying one it for the contest. But if we can't agree,

538
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 1: that's one where I might be willing to plus. It's

539
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: fun to bet a Monday.

540
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 2: Night game, by the way, but we already have one

541
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 2: with k C.

542
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: That's true.

543
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: That's true.

544
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: So you double it up and double your pleasure, double

545
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: your fun. Yeah, I might. I might. Let's put that

546
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: one in the maybe category, so I don't. We're not

547
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: nixing it. You may nix this one after what happened

548
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: to us last week with this team, it's the forty

549
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: nine ers getting three and a half from the Rams.

550
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: I feel like we're both generally a little high on

551
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 1: the Rams this year, so it's kind of weird. You know,

552
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: we like the whole There are no you know, fans

553
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: to bother Jared Goff and McVeigh in his ear. But

554
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: this what happened last week, Man Garoppolo looked terrible, absolutely terrible.

555
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: I think it's just kind of one of those weeks

556
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: they haven't looked great at all for the whole year,

557
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: and they're injured of course throughout. It just felt like

558
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: one of those weeks. And I think they're going to

559
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: be pretty desperate here. I think this is their third

560
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: straight game at home. Yes, if I'm not yet right,

561
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: their third straight game at home. I think Garoppolo is

562
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: going to start. I think that was just a bad growl.

563
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was the ankle or whether

564
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: or not whatever it was, I think he just wasn't right.

565
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: It was one of those terrible games. I think it's

566
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: too much of an overreaction how we're looking at with

567
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: the line. I think they're getting a little healthier on defense.

568
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: I've obviously lost you know, Bosa for the full year

569
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,719
Speaker 1: and everything like that, but mostly Witherspoon's going to be back,

570
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: so getting a little healthier in the secondary. Mostard is

571
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: now back that ran do not stop tight ends very well.

572
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: So I think Kittle's going to go crazy. And this

573
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 1: just strikes me again. I look for these situations where it's,

574
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 1: you know, kind of Bilo sell high here in this situation,

575
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: and forty nine ers will strike me as a team

576
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: that's Bilo. If I'm getting more than a field goal

577
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: in this game, I'm willing to take it. So that's

578
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: my next pick, go ahead.

579
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 2: I think we should take it. Really yeah, and a

580
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 2: couple of reasons why won. I wouldn't bet this game, Okay,

581
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 2: because I feel okay enough putting a pick on it

582
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 2: for our team versus money. So I again, I talk

583
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,239
Speaker 2: to a lot of people about a variety and this

584
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 2: is a game where one of the people I talk to,

585
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 2: he's got a guy who runs all these algorithms and numbers,

586
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 2: and he has this game as Sam Fran minus one.

587
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 2: The look aheadline was Sam Fran minus three. Now it's

588
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 2: they're catching three and a half points. Yeah, so we're

589
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 2: catching six and a half points of value here in

590
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 2: this game. And it's a divisional game, coming off of

591
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 2: a horrible performance, and you know this team is going

592
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 2: to get ripped and screamed at and they're gonna go

593
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 2: crazy for this. They need a victory desperately. Here. It's

594
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 2: a four and one RAMS team. I don't think they're

595
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 2: a five and one caliber team. And I don't think

596
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 2: San Fran is this bad. Now, there's always a the

597
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 2: regression for the team that comes off of a loss

598
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. But this is a team that

599
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: needs a victory in the worst way, and I could

600
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 2: easily see the Rams winning it on a last second

601
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 2: kick and we win, and we win on the hook,

602
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 2: so exactly. I like the three and a half number there.

603
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 2: It's more of a numbers play for the contest than

604
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 2: anything else. But I think the hook there matters.

605
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: Yep, it's the hook. And right now, by the way,

606
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: the consensus line is down to three at that point,

607
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: it's a little different, right yep. Oh I'm getting something.

608
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: Oh boy, the this only helps us with our pick.

609
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: Matt per ESPN. Apparently Le'Veon Bell will be signing with

610
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 1: the Chiefs Chiefs five News, which really, I mean, but

611
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 1: whatever the spread is, they're gonna win by twelve now

612
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: once Bell is there. No, I'm kidding, Matt. It's completely irrelevan.

613
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 2: But I don't know. It's irrelevant though, I mean, it's

614
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: it's it is another guy for them to go ahead

615
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: and and and use in the screen game and have him. Yeah,

616
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 2: I mean, I think he's a weapon. I mean he

617
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 2: can catch the football and run the football.

618
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: I just can Edwards Hilaire.

619
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 2: Though I'm a little weird. I'm a little weirded out

620
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 2: by that. I mean, that's the only thing that if

621
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 2: you have any futures on On Edwards, e Layer, winning

622
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year or you know, having a big season,

623
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 2: if he's on your fancy team or whatnot, then all

624
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you're bringing in somebody to take away

625
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 2: touches from him.

626
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 1: So I don't know, that's that's fair. That's fair. That's

627
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: something that's fair, and you will, you know, factor in.

628
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure Bell will, but I've watched.

629
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: Weird those because he could have. I mean, I supposedly

630
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 2: the Dolphins threw a ton of money on him.

631
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 1: He wants to win, he wants to win a Super

632
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: Bowl wants I get.

633
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 2: That, I do, But I also I also say, like

634
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 2: you could have gone I don't know, you could have

635
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 2: gone to a to a team where you were going

636
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 2: to be utilized and win, you know, and win a

637
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. I just feel like there's so many guys

638
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 2: who want who want touches and an offense already that

639
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: is just such a stacked team already. But it's a

640
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 2: big move for the Chiefs. I mean, that's that's a

641
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 2: big weapon.

642
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: Well, that's what we've we've reached our our limit on

643
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 1: how much we could talk about Leveon Bell. So we've

644
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: got three now, Matt, we've got three that I feel

645
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: okay about. These are three of my top four picks.

646
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: So go to your next one.

647
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 2: So these next two are just gross and I don't

648
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: know what to do with it, and so I want

649
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 2: to see kind of how you feel. Go ahead, how

650
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 2: do you feel about Texans plus three and a half

651
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 2: against the Titans.

652
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: I kind of like that game. I almost had basically

653
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: written it off because I was like, well, you love

654
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: the Titans, justifiably. They've been playing exceptional football. You liked

655
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 1: them coming in. You took the alternative win total on

656
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: the daily juice, which I love because I really do

657
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: have a rooting interest. It looks like a great call

658
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,360
Speaker 1: by you, as long as they can avoid injury. But yeah,

659
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: I kind of liked that game, but I it was

660
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 1: like down on my list because I said, there's no

661
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: way Matt's gonna want.

662
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 2: To It's again, it's the same thing like with San Francisco.

663
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: It's the same thing. It's more of a system play

664
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 2: because it's a divisional game, and like, I don't know,

665
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 2: I mean, the Titans have been playing so many of

666
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 2: these tight football games, and look they just blew had

667
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 2: a huge blowout victory. They're playing really angry and they

668
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 2: were mad and they want to shut everybody up. But

669
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 2: now they're on the Now. The only thing that scares

670
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: me about this game is this game's at home. This

671
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 2: was at Houston. I feel way more comfortable taking Houston.

672
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 2: But since it's at Tennessee, like I just, I don't

673
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 2: know about it. It concerns me about right now. But

674
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 2: it is one of the games that from a system play,

675
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 2: you know, catching three and a half points in a

676
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 2: divisional game. I don't hate it, so I didn't know

677
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 2: how you feel. How you it's on my list. I

678
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: don't know if you hated it or liked it, but

679
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 2: I'd be willing to consider it.

680
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 1: It's on my list. It's on my list. I don't

681
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: want to write it in in penn because I want

682
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: to talk through a couple more games. But it is

683
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: at three and a half that the overwhelming insensus is

684
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: on the Titans at three and a half. But I

685
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: agree with you for the contest. It is sort of

686
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: something and they don't you know. The one thing I said,

687
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: I it's more of the first game out and it's

688
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: not like the Texans played that well against the Jaguars.

689
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: The Jaguars easily could have covered. Yes, that's Brandon the

690
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: goals had a kicker, all right, but the Texans did you.

691
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,239
Speaker 1: I mean, Watson threw three touchdown passes. The offense is

692
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: going to look better now that they're facing some softer defenses.

693
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: I think Brandon Cooks looked good as long as Will

694
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: Fuller is healthy, David Johnson is still around, and Deshaun

695
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: Watson is really good. It's a short week for the Titans.

696
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: They're coming off like a huge when like a real

697
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: short week, right, I mean, because they're you know, so

698
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: I I kind of like it, Matt. I could see

699
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: this one being one.

700
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 2: The pass rush from the Titans just is not there.

701
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: There's just nothing. There's nobody getting after the quarterback. Their

702
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: secondary is good, but their pass rush is not there.

703
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, you give Watson time in the pocket and

704
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: he picks people apart. So that's my that's my concern

705
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: with that. Because the Texans are one in four and

706
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 2: the Titans are four and oh and do I think

707
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 2: they go to five? And oh? I mean I have

708
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 2: them at nine and a half wins, they go to

709
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: five and oh, that would be amazing. But I just

710
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 2: something tells me that they're due to have all this

711
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: chaos and controversy kind of a flat spot for them

712
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 2: potentially in their schedule against a team that's totally up

713
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 2: against a wall.

714
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, this just strikes me as a game that they're

715
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: you know that Houston's going to be able to keep

716
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: close and you're getting the hook. I kind of like it.

717
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: My guess is we're going with it. My guess is

718
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: we're going with it. But let's keep talking through some

719
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: of them. How do you feel this is not you know,

720
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 1: I have full authority now to do whatever I want

721
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: with the Jets. I'm not exercising it on this game

722
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: because I don't love it, But I am on the

723
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: Dolphins side of the laying eight and a half against

724
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: the Jets. How do you feel right now? We've got

725
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: you know, Sam Darnold already ruled out for the game,

726
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: so it's you know, slinging Joe Flacco there. They may

727
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 1: get a little healthier wide receiver Brashad Perman is starting

728
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: to practice. I don't think Mims is going to be back.

729
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: I know he's activated off ir but he got twenty

730
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: one days. How do you feel about the Dolphins laying

731
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: eight and a half to the Jets.

732
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 2: I'd be fine with it. I mean, I think the

733
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 2: Jets are done. I think they're keeping Audham gaze for

734
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 2: a reason, and I think that they want to lose, and

735
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 2: it's just a matter of how many points where they

736
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 2: lose by.

737
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's up to nine and a half already.

738
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 2: If you want to still, if you want to stand

739
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 2: on a table and say, this is a game where

740
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 2: I mean the Patriots are ten point favorites to the Broncos, Yeah,

741
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 2: the Dolphins are could have just destroyed the Jets.

742
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know what makes me hesitant. The reason

743
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: I'm not because I've been jumping on every other Jet.

744
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to be like the Cardinals seven and

745
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: a half. I don't care it's more in a touchdown.

746
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: I don't care that I'm fading the Cardinals at this point.

747
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: The Jets are historically bad at this point. Is that

748
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: it does strike me a little bit as like you

749
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: see fits come out every once in a while and

750
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: just be like, oh, today's the day, Today's the day

751
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: where I'm throwing four interceptions, doesn't matter the opponent, but

752
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: it really is hard.

753
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 2: But he's keeping Tua on the sidelines by how I know,

754
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: So I think there's something to the fact that he

755
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 2: doesn't want to give it up.

756
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: You've seen him though enough. Oh, you know that these

757
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 1: can go away. I think this is one that I

758
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: kind of like, but I'm not one hundred percent putting

759
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: it in, but I lean that way. So right now,

760
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: we could put in this one, and we could put

761
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: in the Texans, and I'd be totally fine with our

762
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: five picks right now. But let's keep talking through any

763
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: other game that you have on your wridar. And I

764
00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: will say, by the way, ninety two percent of the

765
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: experts who have made picks are on the on the

766
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: Dolphins who are giving. And again the spread is rising,

767
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, maybe because Darnold was out, maybe because the

768
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: books are slowly realizing we can't make the line high enough.

769
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: You know that that year that the Patriots were favored

770
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins, you know whatever was that last year?

771
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 1: Probably Yeah, where the where the spreads just got to

772
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 1: be like sixteen or seventeen. They're like, we don't really

773
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:24,959
Speaker 1: know when it ends. I feel like it might be

774
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: like that for the Jets, especially with flack O there.

775
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: So let's put that one in the maybe pile. But

776
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: I'm leaning towards it as well any other games they like, Yeah.

777
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 2: The last one on my list. And something's up with

778
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 2: the Colts offense, and I'm just not whether it's Philip

779
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 2: Rivers and the lack of arm strength or that Jonathan

780
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 2: Taylor is not the running back that I thought he

781
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: was going to be in the NFL for having a

782
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 2: great career. The worry he was how much Wisconsin used

783
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 2: him And I don't know if there's just none enough

784
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 2: troad on the tires or what. But Cincinnati got embarrassed

785
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 2: and they couldn't do anything. They were blitzed like crazy.

786
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: And the Colts defense is okay, hey, but they're not great.

787
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 2: They've been banged up. I know Leonard's coming back and whatnot,

788
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: but I think Joe Burrow to keep this game within

789
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 2: eight and a half points. I think since he is

790
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 2: gonna be they might lose, but I think they're in

791
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 2: the game by a touchdown or lessier against the Colts.

792
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's moving in that direction. It's seven and a

793
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: half now at the consensus sixty four percent of our

794
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: experts like Cincy. Yeah, that's a really tough one for me.

795
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: Do we know about Leonard? Is he practiced?

796
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 2: Think he's questionable, but I think I think he was

797
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 2: back at practice today.

798
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: If he plays, that makes me a little less excited

799
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: about it, just because I think that that the whole defense.

800
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: It's just it's hard to see, you know, it's it's

801
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: it's another one that's maybe this is a weird week, Matt,

802
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: because I feel like there are a lot of games

803
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: that I'm like, Okay, I can live with this game,

804
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: Like that's a game. If you were like Dan, I

805
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,239
Speaker 1: love this game. This is my game, gotta put it in.

806
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: I think it's okay. I just worry a little bit.

807
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: I agree completely Rivers looks completely toast, like just done,

808
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: like can't do anything. What's However, Taylor looked a little

809
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: better I thought last game, and I think he's you know,

810
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: hopefully they might just need to ride him a little

811
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: more and let him get in a groove as opposed

812
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: to giving touches to Jordan Wilkins and Niam Hines. But

813
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 1: I agree that it seems weird that they would be

814
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: able to kind of run away with this thing and

815
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 1: get it by more than a touch on. So let's

816
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: put that one in the maybe pile as well. Let's

817
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: run through a couple other games, sure, and then we

818
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: can tell on how do you feel about the Giants

819
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: slaying too, I'm not picking either side. I'm just giving

820
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 1: the spread. So I don't think I'm taking the spread

821
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 1: in New York. The Giants giving two and a half

822
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: to Washington.

823
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 2: See the whole thing with the quarterback spot with Washington

824
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 2: concerns me a little bit because if I had some

825
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: better idea as to like, Okay, Kyle Allen's playing and

826
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 2: that's it. He is, I know he is, but if

827
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 2: he gets dinged up, I mean he gets hurt again,

828
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 2: here comes Alex Smith, so.

829
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, but that's every that's every I know.

830
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 2: Like if you if you play your first half of

831
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 2: football in forever for your team and you get hurt

832
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 2: in the first week, the first the first week, first quarter, yeah,

833
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 2: I mean come on, Like, I'm just like, something's I'm

834
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 2: concerned about trusting what Washington could do because I do

835
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 2: think if they get Chase Young back and he's effective.

836
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 2: I mean I don't like either team in New York

837
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 2: to be quite honest, I don't think any either the

838
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 2: Jets or the Giant, should be favored against anybody in

839
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 2: the NFL.

840
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: That's I think the wrong team might be favorite. Yeah,

841
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: that's legitimately how I feel. I think the wrong team

842
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: is favored.

843
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 2: And I just don't know what's going with their offense.

844
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 2: I mean, I just don't know if I can trust

845
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 2: their quarterbacks to stay healthy. And then am I big

846
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 2: on Alex Smith.

847
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 1: To if we're betting on Alex Smith again, awesome story,

848
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: incredible to see him out there, But he couldn't you know, Yeah,

849
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:31,359
Speaker 1: he couldn't.

850
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,280
Speaker 2: Thirty nine yards passing in the second half.

851
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: He's not healthy enough, you know, or you know, he

852
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 1: can't move well enough I think at this point to

853
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: do anything on offense. So yeah, that's fine. But alan

854
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: is is Flinn. I'm not pushing for this game. But

855
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: we're both on the same side. We're both on Washington

856
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: getting two and a half. Okay, But I admit we're

857
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: at the point where I don't like any of these

858
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: games are about to discuss as much as the games

859
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: that we already have discussed. But I do want to

860
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: see so we know when you and I talk about it,

861
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: on Saturday nights. How we feel about it? But I am,

862
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: you know, talk to you guys, because I am. I

863
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: do like washing it. But I agree that if Alex

864
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: Smith were in there, it would make me a little nervous.

865
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: How do you feel about your boys? The Patriots laying

866
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 1: nine and a half to the Broncos. Cam newton Is

867
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: back sounds like Stefine Gilmore's back.

868
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 2: So according to the Pro Football Focus friends of mine, yes,

869
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 2: they think this line should be fourteen.

870
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not kidding.

871
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 2: And it's they too. They believe it's too low. They

872
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 2: believe that Cam Cam and company. This is where my

873
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 2: fandom gets a little oftentime. It's part of my every

874
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 2: every week on the Daily Juice, I do a teaser.

875
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 2: It missed for the first time all year. It's four

876
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 2: and one now for a two leg teaser, and it

877
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 2: missed because the Jacksonville Jaguars kicker missed two two field

878
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 2: goals two chip shots. If he hits both those field goals,

879
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 2: that the teasers five and oh, so I got screwed

880
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: by a kicker. This is one of my legs taking

881
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 2: the taking the Patriots and teasing it down and I

882
00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,959
Speaker 2: hope more money comes in here and the line stop.

883
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 2: It's going up. But right now it's ten. I would

884
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 2: teas down to four. If I can get three and

885
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 2: a half or three, I would love it. But the

886
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 2: Patriots are winning this game. My question is by what

887
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 2: number are they're winning this game? And the Broncos and

888
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 2: the Patriots have a funky history with each other. It's

889
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 2: just a it's a it's an unseen rivalry. It's not

890
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 2: talked about all that much, but the two franchises hate

891
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 2: each other, like they just straight up hate each other.

892
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 2: So I mean, you get the quarterback back, although I'm

893
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 2: not a huge fan of him, and I don't hate it.

894
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 2: It's just, you know, double digits. Everyone's saying it should

895
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 2: be over double digits, so this line would be under

896
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 2: double digits, So I would say I would I don't

897
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 2: hate it. How about that? Which if you said you

898
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 2: wanted to take it, I wouldn't say no.

899
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: No, okay, I don't want to take it. But it

900
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: is one. There's going to be these games, and again

901
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 1: follow us on Twitter, tweet it out Dan Harris Hadi

902
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: and ad Sports Talk Matt where we are going to

903
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: give out our final picks. This is one where one

904
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 1: hundred percent. I could see if you talk to people

905
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: and you sort of get more info. I like, if

906
00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: you say, Dan, I want to do this, we're doing

907
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: because there are something like right now where it'd be

908
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: like if you want to take the panthers, I'm just

909
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: not doing it. Like I like the bear side of it,

910
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: so we're not going to go there. But we're on

911
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 1: the same side of this one. So it is one

912
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: that we probably will not pick when I recap what

913
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: our picks are at the end, but it is one

914
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: that I would be willing to consider for certain if

915
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: you get better info on it. And again you know,

916
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: it's still the consensus line is still at nine and

917
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 1: a half. It's sixty four percent around New England. I

918
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: think that's the right side. Even if Drew Locke comes back,

919
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: Even if Melvin Gordon plays, which I guess you.

920
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 2: Believe that that's how bad this team is, that they

921
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 2: might actually play a guy who had a DUI driving

922
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 2: ninety five and a thirty five whatever heck he was driving.

923
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 1: Well, you let him know as a lawyer. As a lawyer, Matt,

924
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, everybody is innocent until proven guilty. And if

925
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 1: they want to let it go out the way they want.

926
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 2: But I understand two million dollars by the way, with

927
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 2: that because he has a clause in his contract forgetting

928
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 2: if forgetting arrested. I believe it. I think it is.

929
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 2: And so he lost two million in a clause if

930
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 2: he got in trouble. So it's it's not good for him.

931
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: But while he's going to get suspended, almost without quite

932
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: assuming that there's nothing that you know is missing from

933
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: the story, he's going to get suspended probably for three

934
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: games from the NFL. But it sounds like he might play.

935
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: This is like crazy, like it doesn't I'm I'm going

936
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: into it, assuming that Gordon plays right, going into it,

937
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: assuming that Locke is back and healthy, and I still

938
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 1: like the Patriots right and a half. I don't love it,

939
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: but it is something that's on there for me. Okay,

940
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: let's do a couple of other games here. In these

941
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: games I really don't have a good feel on either way.

942
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: The Lions laying three and a half to the Jaguars

943
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville, I.

944
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 2: Mean, this is one in three verses one and four.

945
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 2: Why are we talking about this game?

946
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: It's gross. I don't want it. I'm glad to pick

947
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: a side.

948
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 2: I'll take the home dog at plus three and a half.

949
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll take I think this is the Lions coming

950
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 1: out party. Look at Jaguars and they win by fours. No,

951
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want any piece of it at all.

952
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: They're both terrible teams. If I have to pick a side,

953
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,439
Speaker 1: it would be on the line, just because I think

954
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 1: the Jaguars are terrible. They are getting a little healthy

955
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: on defense, which which does you know? I think Miles

956
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: Jack is back practice at least. But I do think

957
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: that Galladay given full health, that this could be a

958
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 1: game where the Lions put up a ton of points.

959
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: But it's not a game that I want to go

960
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: anywhere near. I will not be picking either side of

961
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: it with I have to how about the Ravens lak

962
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: seven and a half to the Eagles.

963
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 2: So this is the other side of my teaser. Is

964
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,840
Speaker 2: the Ravens down to one and a half? Yep against

965
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 2: the Eagles, Ravens win. I'm just I don't like the

966
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 2: hook there, so I feel like a backdoor potential is there,

967
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: or maybe a straight blowout and the Ravens destroy him.

968
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 2: But Ravens are winning the game as a matter what

969
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 2: by how much.

970
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 1: I think if I had to, if I had to bet,

971
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: it would be that the Ravens are gonna just massacre

972
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: them completely. But you do have this thing where Lamar Jackson,

973
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 1: it didn't look great, didn't look like he wanted to run.

974
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: You know, maybe his knee really is bothering him. Carson

975
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: Wentz is able. I mean, they they look like they

976
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: were just going to get completely destroyed in that Pittsburgh game.

977
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 1: Then suddenly he turned around.

978
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like, wha wait.

979
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: We were like what you and I were texting to

980
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: the were like what the heck is going on here?

981
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 1: And they the Eagles are getting healthier right now. They

982
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 1: may have al Seon Jeffery and Deshaun Jackson back for

983
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 1: this game. So it is a game where I'd rather

984
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 1: stay away. But if I had to choose one seven

985
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 1: and a half points, I would still go with Baltimore

986
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: despite the hook and sixty three percent of our experts

987
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 1: feel the same way. How about the Falcons getting three

988
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: and a half from Minnesota. I think that's the only

989
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: game we haven't touched on yet.

990
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 2: Oh and five versus one and four, and I don't

991
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I won't watch one second of this game.

992
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 2: This is just a garbage football game. Dan Quinn getting fired.

993
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 2: It worked for the Texans, so maybe it works for We.

994
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: Talked about that last week. By the way, there is

995
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: kind of this.

996
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 2: You know.

997
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,879
Speaker 1: Again, it's mostly anecdotal at this point because I haven't

998
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 1: been able. I haven't had enough time to go in

999
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: and quantify it. But I feel like every time I

1000
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 1: see a coach get fired that first game back, yeah,

1001
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: that team plays a little inspired.

1002
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 2: I had to play, I would take the three and

1003
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 2: a half. I'll take the plus points there.

1004
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 1: Now, I would take the vikings in this game. But

1005
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: I want absolutely no part of it whatsoever. Okay, So

1006
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,359
Speaker 1: this is Matt, where I think I'm going to put

1007
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: in our You let me know if there's anything off here,

1008
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: or I'm going to put in our potential picks right now.

1009
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put them in. I don't put them

1010
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: in until Saturday night. So I give Matt, me and

1011
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 1: Matt plenty of time talk. But we're definitely putting in

1012
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: the Chiefs laying three and a half to the Bills. Yes,

1013
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: we're definitely putting in the Steelers laying three and a

1014
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 1: half to the Brown Yes, we're definitely putting in I

1015
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: guess the forty nine ers getting three and a half

1016
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: from the.

1017
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 2: Ramp Yeah, I'm okay with that.

1018
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 1: We are prop now these other two are are right

1019
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: now tentative picks. But the Texans getting three and a

1020
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: half from the Titans. And if you had made me

1021
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: make a list of potential, you know, picks that we're

1022
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,360
Speaker 1: going to be in this contest for us, this one

1023
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: would have been like last.

1024
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 2: This is almost fading myself, by the way, I love it.

1025
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, fade yourself exactly right. And the final one I'm

1026
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: gonna put in, matt Uh. You know, I'm gonna go

1027
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 1: with the Dolphins, like eight and a half to the

1028
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: Jets for our final one because I think we're both

1029
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: on that side. However, the other ones that we are considering,

1030
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 1: and so if you are saying, well, I don't really

1031
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:57,879
Speaker 1: care about your picks, guys, I just kind of want

1032
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,919
Speaker 1: to know which way you lean. We definitely both lean

1033
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 1: Dallas getting two and a half points at home from

1034
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and that line is moving in Dallas' direction.

1035
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,880
Speaker 1: We lean the Patriots laying nine and a half points

1036
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,280
Speaker 1: to the Broncos in New England. That's just one where

1037
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: I don't think we can pull the trigger. Other than that,

1038
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 1: we're kind of back and forth on a couple sides.

1039
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: I like the Bears, you like the Panthers. That in particular,

1040
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: the game that we're actually split on right now are

1041
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: the Bucks and the Packers, where we're on different sides

1042
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,439
Speaker 1: of that game. But that's it. I don't know, Matt.

1043
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 1: I mean, this is probably the week we go one

1044
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: and four because I'm like, oh, I feel good. I

1045
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 1: like these picks, but I feel good about these. I

1046
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: think there are a couple of ones that.

1047
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like our top three a lot, and yeah,

1048
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 2: me too, I think they like last week, we liked

1049
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 2: our top three a lot, And then I think it

1050
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 2: comes in. And that's really when it comes to these contests,

1051
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,879
Speaker 2: and even just when you're betting in general, like the

1052
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 2: bottom you're betting four to five games, the bottom four

1053
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 2: and five are the ones that make or break your

1054
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,240
Speaker 2: day or make or break your weekend for the picks.

1055
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 2: So it's just if you have your hot, you go

1056
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 2: five and oh. If if you don't, you go three

1057
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 2: and two. But you just want to keep yourself in

1058
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 2: plus money obviously.

1059
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, and again another thing to think about at least

1060
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 1: for the contest. For us is the fact that, as

1061
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 1: you've mentioned before, New Hampshire is one of the states

1062
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: where people can bet on the DraftKings Contest's that's where

1063
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: I live, and so there's probably gonna be a lot

1064
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: of people picking the Patriots in a game where the

1065
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 1: Patriots could be picked. So that might be a game that,

1066
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: even though it's under consideration, we might want to fade

1067
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 1: unless you get info which says no, no.

1068
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 2: No, no, I'm not fading that if we bet that

1069
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 2: we're on the Patriots.

1070
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 1: No, no, for sure, I wouldn't go the other way

1071
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 1: whether we put that no, no, no, I'm not going.

1072
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 1: I don't care what info you have. I'm not back

1073
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,480
Speaker 1: reaching clock and against an angry Bill Belichick and a

1074
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: healthy Patriots deeper short. All right, excellent, that's it. So

1075
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: a reminder, eleven am to twelve pm Eastern time, so

1076
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: eight o'clock on Matt's time. On Sunday mornings, Matt does

1077
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,200

1084
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 1: Matt breaks down his best bets. He is close. I

1085
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 1: don't know what the scores right now, Matt, but you

1086
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: are close to cashing that thousand.

1087
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 2: Plus one thousand rays we made in July, one full

1088
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 2: unit riding on a plus one thousand bets. So I've

1089
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 2: been watching that like a hawk. This is gonna I mean,

1090
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 2: it's you know, to get ten ten units to go

1091
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 2: ahead and add that to our to our roster, to

1092
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 2: our record. Is going to be a really nice, a

1093
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 2: nice edition plus a hell of a way to start

1094
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 2: a weekend if I can get the race. It's three

1095
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 2: to two Houston as we speak, though, so.

1096
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: Oh boy, all right, all right, so hopefully they pull

1097
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: it out. But either way, I think they are going

1098
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: to find a way to pull out that series. And

1099
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,879
Speaker 1: I have them on I think plus eighteen hundred because

1100
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 1: I got a little late to win the series.

1101
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 2: World Series.

1102
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: Yes, oh no, and that was that was my one

1103
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: baseball bat and I go, wow, all right, my one

1104
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 1: real one. I might have sprinkled a little bit on

1105
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 1: like some small ones like the Rockies to make the playoffs.

1106
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: Give me the thing which that didn't hit.

1107
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 2: I mean, it's crazy. I never make future bets. I

1108
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,399
Speaker 2: made three. I made the the Yankees under thirty seven

1109
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 2: wins that hit. Yes, I have, uh that was minus

1110
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 2: one point fifteen or something like that. I had. And

1111
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 2: I have the Dodgers at plus three thirty to win

1112
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 2: the World Series, and I have and I have the

1113
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 2: Rays to win the American League.

1114
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,720
Speaker 1: Awesome. That well, your futures in football as well, everybody.

1115
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,399
Speaker 1: You had the Jets under six and a half, which

1116
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: something tells me you're gonna sneak by by six or

1117
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: seven wins. You've got the alternative win total for the

1118
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 1: Titans at nine and a half, which looks great at

1119
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 1: plus one fifty five I think, or something like that.

1120
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: And I think you've got what the Raiders over seven? Yep, yeah,

1121
