1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up

2
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 1: straight Fire? Fam, It's means Jason McIntire Straight Fire for Tuesday,

3
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 1: September seven. We are forty eight hours away from the

4
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: start of the NFL season. We got a great podcast

5
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: to get you just to wet your beak for Cowboys bucks.

6
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: My main man, Bernie Frado, big Vegas guy, big gambler.

7
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna call him degenerate. He just knows football. Uh,

8
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: So we'll chop it up for twenty minutes on Week one.

9
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: He gives a couple of season long predictions that he

10
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: really likes. It's gonna be a big week for NFL.

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: Obviously we will not forget college football. Um. But also

12
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: I just want to thank you guys for the kind

13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: words about the podcast with Matthew Berry. UM. Apparently that

14
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: helped a lot of folks in their fantasy drafts. Uh.

15
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: Last night as well as today, there is a big

16
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: fantasy draft day. UM. I also want to add my son.

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: I probably stepped in it with the wife on this one,

18
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: but I had my son do to fantasy drafts. He

19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: had never done one before. He got in a league

20
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: with a bunch of his buddies, and then another one

21
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: with some of his buddies. Um, and of course they

22
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: were kind of timed right before dinner and during dinner,

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: so that did not go overwhell in the mc entire household.

24
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: That being said, UM, he's pretty thrilled with how it

25
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: shook out. And UM, I'm just gonna say this, I

26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: don't put an ounce of stock in the darn Yahoo

27
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: report card nonsense for for starters. They don't like Gus

28
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: Edwards this year. They're like, oh, Goss Edwards all he's

29
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: not very good. And if you take Gus is back up. Uh,

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: the kid Williams who I started talking about last week.

31
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: By the way, Justice Hill, who was fighting for that

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: backup to Gus the Bus, He's out for the season. Okay,

33
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: the Ravens are are desperate. They're calling Levian Bell. I'm

34
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,639
Speaker 1: telling you the kid Williams, if you're draft is tonight,

35
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: you might want to get him earlier than expected. Gus

36
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: the Bus obviously is a top three round guy. But

37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: the darn Yahoo grades are silly. It's weird. I'm not

38
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: in any es in or CBS leagues. I'm in I

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: think four in Yahoo, and my son's in two. Um,

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: and now my daughter, you know, was watching us and

41
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 1: getting into it, and I think we're gonna get her

42
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: into the fantasy game next year. Uh. And found another

43
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: dad who's interested, so we'll just have to cobble together.

44
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: Eight more should not be a problem in our sports

45
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: loving town. And also, UM, you know, I kind of

46
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: like sports, so I shouldn't have a hard time wrangling

47
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: some other football dads to get their daughters into fantasy football. Uh.

48
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: One quick gambling note before we get to the gambling

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: podcast with Bernie Frado. Congrats to the dude who had

50
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: a ten team parlay in college football that hit unbelievable

51
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: ten dollars won him seventy eight thousand dollars. I'm sorry.

52
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: It was a ten dollar fourteen team college parley, fourteen unders.

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: He had the under in Yukon, fres No State, Boise State,

54
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: u c F, South Florida, NC State, e C, U

55
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: APP State, UNC, Virginia Tech. This guy's basically just throwing

56
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: darts and saying, let me go all unders and they

57
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: all hit Duke Charlotte, Oh do you wake? Louisville, Oh Miss,

58
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: which was the final leg Monday night. That was an

59
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: easy winner. I think it hit landed on like sixty

60
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: something and it was under seventy five and a half,

61
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: Utah State, Washington State, Oregon State, per Due. I mean,

62
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: this guy turned ten bucks into thousand. That is a

63
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: home run. Now, I'm gonna just point this out the

64
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: entire UH gambling community. You know, the hardcore gamblers um

65
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: are just gonna be so upset that this is even

66
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: out there because they'll be like, no, people are gonna

67
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: do stupid parlays. Here's a fun fact, guys, parlays are fun,

68
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: and I think most NFL weeks I will do twelve

69
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: team parlays. I'll lay like, I don't know, five or

70
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: six of them, maybe ten of them anywhere from like

71
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: you know, one five ten dollars of pop and if

72
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: one of them hits, you're basically set for the season

73
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: on the parlay front, because you could miss ten a

74
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: week for seventeen weeks and it don't matter if you

75
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: have one of those. And they're fun. Again, I'm not

76
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: talking about flushing big big bucks. No, it's stupid to

77
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: do parlays. That's dumb. Teasers will get to them later

78
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: in the podcast. Obviously, your best advantage is, you know,

79
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: uh straight up bets where you can find an edge.

80
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: We had a good couge football weekend. I anticipate a

81
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: good NFL weekend. But as you guys know, the toughest

82
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: not to crack in sports gambling is the NFL. It's really, really,

83
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: really difficult. Um, but that's the fun in it. Um.

84
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: Obviously I'm in the circuit contest will do plenty of

85
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: that this year. UM and Uh. I don't really have

86
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: any deep thoughts on the Louisville Old Miss game, although

87
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: I will point out the kid from Ole Miss did

88
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: look pretty sharp corral. Uh. If you remember, we had

89
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: a guest on the pod last week who talked up

90
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: his Heisman chances. Um, I mean old Lane Kiffin just

91
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 1: puts it on people. Five and sixty nine yards of

92
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: total offense and folks, they had fourteen penalties for a

93
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: buck and they still won by twenty plus. It was

94
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: at halftime. Listen. I'm just this is obvious, that should

95
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: be obvious to anybody who follows UH college football. But

96
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin is a great offensive mind. He was at

97
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: Alabama and everybody said, oh, anybody could do that with

98
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: five stars. Well he's doing the same damn thing at

99
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: all miss And I don't think it's crazy to say

100
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: that Lane Kiffin is gonna be coaching in some capacity

101
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: if he wants to. In the NFL, he was, he

102
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: was obviously too young when he got there the first time,

103
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 1: flamed out badly and quickly, way too big of an ego.

104
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: The ego hasn't totally gone away, but you get older,

105
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: you get wiser. Let's just be honest. Lane Kiffin is

106
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: really an intelligent football offensive mind. That's undeniable. Now, is

107
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: he gonna be a head coach? He's probably a little

108
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: bit of ways away from that. Would he take an

109
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator job or would he rather take continue to

110
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: take head coaching jobs at college football? I mean, let's it.

111
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,679
Speaker 1: He was at the top when he was coaching USC

112
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: what a little over a decade ago, and he flamed

113
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: out rock bottom and guess what he's coaching in the

114
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 1: SEC now and he's got a high span candidate Like

115
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: it's just it's it is cool. The the whole build

116
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: up tear down thing is just so big in sports media.

117
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: They love to build you up and then tear you

118
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: down just as quickly as they built you up. Chip

119
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: Kelly knows that well chip Kelly bouncing back. I mean

120
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,239
Speaker 1: that guy was at rock bottom very recently after massive

121
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: highs with Oregon and the Philadelphia Eagles, and then he

122
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: got torn down. Oh he's a genius. You know who

123
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: they want badly is McVeigh. That's who the media wants

124
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: and they like they listen, McVeigh was a boy genius

125
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: with the Rams. He gets to the Super Bowl and

126
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you know, uh, they fall back.

127
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: Genius really is he is not? They're smart, like the

128
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: mcveigh's what not even thirty five years old. The guy

129
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: definitely is one of the best football minds in the

130
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: game right now, that's obvious. There's a reason that the

131
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: Rams are an offensive jugger. And every year and they've that,

132
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: everybody just raids their coaching staff almost every year. They

133
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: lost their defensive coordinator, they lost their passing game coordinator.

134
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Like every year, people are coming after whatever the Rams

135
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: have in the coaching department for a reason. Mcphah is

136
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: that good hands another one. But the media doesn't want

137
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: to give these guys props because it's like, oh, if

138
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: you don't win a Super Bowl, your garbage. That's basically

139
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: the barometer. Like Super Bowl or is he like, I

140
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: really that good he lost in the playoffs, Like it's

141
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: just the media sucks. Anyways, I guess I'm part of

142
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: the media. I should shut up without further ado, Let's

155
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: a Saturday morning radio show for I don't know six years,

156
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: and it got it continued to grow. I would start

157
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: to hear from people during the show like, Hey, that

158
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: was good, and Bernie Fratto needs some credit for giving

159
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: me continuously positive updates. Even when he disagreed, he was like,

160
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 1: that's a good case. But this guy knows gambling, so

161
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: we're bringing him in NFL Week one, Bernie Fratto, Fox

162
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. How are you, Bernie Lison? It's terrific to

163
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: be ready for another NFL season when you consider where

164
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: we were last year at this time. I haven't been

165
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: this happy since Chuck e Cheese started serving beer that

166
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: Chucky Cheese serves beer. I did not know that I

167
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: have been to Chuck e Cheese in a while. I

168
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: love Chuckie Cheese though growing up. Um So, Bernie, wait,

169
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: I want to back up because I think, and it

170
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: might have either been two years ago on my radio

171
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: show or last year on this pot or the radio show,

172
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: you gave me a mind blowing stat on Week one

173
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: divisional dogs, and I think you were the one who

174
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: was saying, hey, keep an eye on Jacksonville UM as

175
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 1: a big underdog against the Colton I was like, no, way, man,

176
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: don't know way and low and behold Jacksonville delivers. First

177
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: of all was that you, and second of all, give

178
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: me a winner in Week one? Bernie? What do you got? Absolutely? Jason,

179
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: I remember that very well. You and I did a

180
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: hit on your on your Saturday morning show in and

181
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: that particular weekend, there were four Division one dogs and

182
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: they went three and one. And it's a trends since

183
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: two thousand five. That's been absolute money Week one division

184
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: dogs since two thousand five sixty and it can actually continues,

185
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: Jason throughout the month of September. Divisional dogs in September

186
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: fifty there are two. This year. You've Miami visiting New England.

187
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: Miami was catching three then it was when it was

188
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: announced Mac Jones would be the starting quarterback, the line

189
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: went to two and a half. But still you've got

190
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: a classic divisional dog there. And the other great divisional

191
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: dog is Houston catching three at home against Jacksonville, coming

192
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: in with a rookie coach and a rookie quarterback starting

193
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: in his first game ever. You know what's interest in, Jason,

194
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: and I give you the best bet real quickly here.

195
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: But week in the history of the NFL, there are

196
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: only been ten quarterbacks drafted number one overall and actually started.

197
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: Check that nine quarterbacks you started Week one in the

198
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: year they were drafted number one, and then the prior

199
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: nine they went one and eight. The only quarterback to

200
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: win Week one was Derek Carve All people check that

201
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: game bar for the Houston Texans back in two thousand two.

202
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: He's the only one to do it. It hasn't been

203
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: good for rookie quarterbacks drafted number one overall starting week one,

204
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: one in eight you know, passer rating twelve touchdown, sixteen interceptions,

205
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: and so you're going on the road laying points to

206
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: a Houston team. Irrespective of all that, my best bet

207
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 1: Week one is actually the under Jason New England. The

208
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: total is right around forty five forty four and a

209
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: half depending where you shop. You've got two you know,

210
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: very stiff defenses. Miami does not have Fitz Magic this year.

211
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: If if two of Falters and the other thing, you

212
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: have a couple of run first teams and one final

213
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: thing the game last year in the same spot in

214
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: the eleven. So there's no reason for me to believe

215
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna score two more snotsdowns with a ricky quarterback

216
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: and mac and too stiff defenses, two running games and

217
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: no Fitz Magic. Yeah, alright, these are two great ones

218
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: to dig into. First, of all the divisional dogs things great.

219
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: I wish there were more this weekend, there are not,

220
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: And Bernie, you're gonna hate me. I already bet New

221
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: England on the anticipation Mac was gonna win the starting

222
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: job and it would go up to three and a half.

223
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: It went the other ways down or two and a half.

224
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: So I feel dumb taking the Patriots favored by three.

225
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: But Bernie, we know Belichick's history against young quarterbacks. He

226
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,839
Speaker 1: has dominated them. This idea that he's had a ton

227
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: of time to prepare for twa after seeing him last year.

228
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: Remember two could do nothing late in the season against them.

229
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: I don't feel good at all about Miami here, So

230
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: I can't take that one. And you know, I like

231
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: Jacksonville this year. That's the team you gotta take, Bernie.

232
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: That's a dog with fleas. Okay, you cannot put your

233
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 1: after tax dollars on the Houston Texans, can you. I'm

234
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: not in either game full disclosure. The truths of the

235
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: matter is, I would not surprise me if you get

236
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: a nice victory Week one with of course, uh the

237
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. These things are always nuanced, and I'm

238
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: guessing too that the lines have moved over the years.

239
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: The markets figure these things out, And the truth of

240
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: the matter is, if this, if this would have been

241
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: the same situation a couple of years ago, the lines

242
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 1: would have been different. I would, but now I think

243
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: things do change. I think that you know, books figure

244
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: things out, markets for the things out. Pros figure things out,

245
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: and you're not gonna give them the same price. Give

246
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: me Belichick at home under a field goal. Let's just

247
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: blind me bet Bill Belichick. Since two thousand one years six,

248
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: I really can't disagree with your as you as you

249
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: as I've mentioned, Jason, the truth of the matter is

250
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: that my best bet is the under in that game.

251
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: I think when you're gonna be the real premium right,

252
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: and I think that's gonna march out. They got a

253
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: lot of their defenders back from COVID. They're gonna run

254
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: the ball very well. They got a stable and running backs.

255
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 1: They fleece the Rams, they trade Sonny Michelle and get

256
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: a draft pick for him. They were gonna cut Sony Michelle.

257
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: It's how deep they are. So I'm gonna be honest

258
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: with you, Jason. I like your bet. The trend is

259
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: your friend, but it's got to be nuanced. You can't

260
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: just bet it blind. And yeah, I want to let

261
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: me drill deeper on the trend thing, Bernie, because a

262
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: lot of people are hearing that be like trends, they

263
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: don't really matter. The league has changed, blah blah blah.

264
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: I would never bet anything based on a trend. It's

265
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: part of a soup, right, that factors into your equation. Right,

266
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: Rookie quarter actually was a great stat on Trevor Lawrence. UM.

267
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff like burns. Is Bill Belichick

268
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: eight and three against the spread in his last eleven week?

269
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,439
Speaker 1: Ones like like you said he's at home and the

270
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: guy said ample time to prepare for two. It's a

271
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: it's not the trend I would bet the full game on.

272
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: But the trend is part of the equation, is it?

273
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: Is it not? I don't know how much it is,

274
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: whatever you want to factor in, but how much do

275
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: you read into trends. It's about of fifty fifty proposition,

276
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: but again it's nuanced. For instance, two years ago, this

277
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: same team, the same UM two teams in New England,

278
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: Miami's catching seven. Now they're down to two and a

279
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: half three. So that's a big difference when you you

280
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: know you're covering as a six and a half seven

281
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: point dog, which the two and a half three point dog.

282
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: One of the big trends that Jason. I'll give you

283
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: an example. NFL quarterbacks. Check that NFL rookie coaches in

284
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: the preseason since two thousand and fifteen one and five

285
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: in their first home game tame because they want to

286
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: win that preseason game. Guess what this year was only

287
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: three and four. Because you find out coaches like Brandon

288
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: Staley who took over he's a disciple, as Sean McVeigh,

289
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: who couldn't care less if he wins in the preseason.

290
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: So these things always have to be researched and verified.

291
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: But I will leave you some good news season. Continue

292
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: to watch divisional dogs throughout the month of September because

293
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: even then blindly since two thousand five, there's still fifty

294
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: for the month, so there's still gonna be value coming

295
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: down the road. Why teams are healthy, Hope springs eternal. Uh,

296
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: you know, you don't know who's hit the rhythm yet

297
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: who hasn't. There's always a changing in the guard. Sometimes

298
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: lines can be wrong. You try to find marketed efficiencies

299
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: as you will. I know one of the things you're

300
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: really good at its spotting a bad line. We've talked

301
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: before two weeks ago. Just to digress for a second,

302
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: there's no way in Nebraska should have been laying seven

303
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: points at Illinois and Illinois wins the game. Out right,

304
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: that's a market bad correction. So long. The short of

305
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: it is, you'll see some of that in September in

306
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: the NFL and possibly the tional dogs. Uh. Speaking of

307
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: market inefficiency, Seattle was an underdog in Indie. I don't

308
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: know a month ago, two months ago, before all the

309
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz COVID stuff happened. They're now favored by two

310
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: and a half. That is, I don't know. I don't

311
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: know what you're seeing there in Vegas, but five points

312
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: wing uh, four and a half in the span of

313
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: a month. Now, Normally I'd be like, whoa, that's too

314
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: big of a move. But I'm out on the Colts

315
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: this year. I just don't like it, the injuries to

316
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: the old line. I'm not a fan of Wentz. We

317
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: know he's gonna have happy feedback there. I don't particularly

318
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: like the Seahawks, but you know that coordinator moves are big,

319
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: and this this edition of Waldron the kid from the

320
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: Passing Game coordinator from the Rams. I don't think people

321
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: realize Seattle is gonna come out and really open things up.

322
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: This is not Schottenheimer's Seattle offense. Where are you on

323
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: Seahawks Colts. It's not a game I'm involved in, but

324
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: I'm not happit a going against Russell Wilson maying less

325
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: than a field goal or is getting points. Seattle is

326
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: not like the Legion of Boom team that we're years ago.

327
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: But Pete Carroll's teams have a way of really locking

328
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: down in September until Teddy Bridgewater beat them two years

329
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: ago in September. Currently not lost a home game in

330
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: September ever, and he's about the road in September. If

331
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: you look up and you never see Seattle at one

332
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: and three, they're always three and one. But long and

333
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: short of it is, I'm not involved in the game,

334
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: but I I do believe it's a Steam move. You know,

335
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: if I could have got Seattle at two and a

336
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: half three weeks ago, I can't justify Land two and

337
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: a half. But to your point, Jason, I would be

338
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: a little dubious about the Colts until we know other

339
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: quarterback uh situation with Carson Wentz ferrets out with with

340
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 1: the new coordinate, how Bernie Fratto are the Carolina Panthers

341
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: favored by five points against anyone. Well, that's a very

342
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: good question. That's a market line to me. I think

343
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 1: Matt Rule has done a fabulous job done there, and

344
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,239
Speaker 1: I actually think Sam Donald was better than people give

345
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: him credit for. Five is kind of a dead number.

346
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: So if you figure you win the game, you cover.

347
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: If you don't, you might lose out right again, I'm

348
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: very picky week one, Jason. And in terms of some

349
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: of these games, there are just a lot of issues

350
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: you don't know about. And that's a fair question. I

351
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: I don't know how they're they're favored by five? Yeah,

352
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: how are you able? Bernie to be picky? And week one,

353
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 1: every guy I've talked to who loves to gamble on

354
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 1: games is just going all wild. They're like, every day,

355
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: Oh what about this? What a total side teasers? I mean,

356
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,719
Speaker 1: excuse me, I like teasers a lot, Bernie. I know

357
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: the gambling purist will scoff at that, but you're telling

358
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: me if I can't tease like the Buccaneers down to

359
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: one and a half, uh, and then you take like

360
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: Kansas City just to win, or maybe getting a point

361
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 1: in San Francisco to you know, win by one point

362
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 1: like those are three. You never want to say anything

363
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: to automatic slam Doug, But come on, well, you're right, Jason. Actually,

364
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is teasers are more bet

365
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: among pros, and people realize. And I will tell you

366
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 1: the number one teaser bet week one that the pros

367
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: have fired on is Tampa Bay minus, you know, down

368
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: to minus one and a half, a six point teaser

369
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: um to the rams, I'll check that, or to the

370
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: forty niners down to one and a half. Okay, And

371
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: so the truth of the matter is, uh, teasing works

372
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: when you cross through the key numbers of three, four, six,

373
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: and seven. You want to run from people who say, well,

374
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: sell and Sell is getting nine points, let's tease it

375
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: up to fifteen. There's no way to look like you're

376
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: not allowing the math to work for you. Now, a

377
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 1: couple of rule of thumbs. For the most part, most

378
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: pros I know don't bet teasers the first two weeks

379
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: because you're just not sure what can happen, right, I mean,

380
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: it looks almost too easy. Tampa Bay should just destroyed Dallas.

381
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: Dallas has all kinds of problems, especially on defense, and

382
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: you don't know if the act healthy and the Lions

383
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: can't get out of their own way. They don't really

384
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: have any talent on the field. The forty nine should

385
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: mall them, right, So you tease them down, you get

386
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 1: them down below two points, But how do you know?

387
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: There could be an injury, There could be a fumble,

388
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: there could be a kick return, someone back to it.

389
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 1: Anything could happen. The other thing I never recommend on

390
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: teasers is betting teasers for totals. Never use teasers to

391
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: bet totals. Has the math doesn't work there either as well. Um.

392
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: I still remember the Lions last year. I think they

393
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: were up like twenty six and the fourth quarter I

394
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: felt great. I think it was a divisional dog, right, um,

395
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: and then they just totally collapsed. It ruined their season.

396
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: Uh and they lost in overtime, didn't cover or maybe

397
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 1: they lost at the end of the fourth quarter. But

398
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: you know, the Detroit Lions are dead to me after

399
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: last year. I had some some futures into them. I mean,

400
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: just a total joke of a franchise. Let's go to

401
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 1: the Falcons, Eagles anything on this game, because I kind

402
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: of have an irrational like for the Falcons. Here is

403
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: that silly of me? In this game, not for the season. No,

404
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: I think I think the thing with the Falcons or

405
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: people are gonna overlook them. They still got Matt Ryan.

406
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: The Falcons are gonna be an eight nine team, But

407
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be a tough out in every game.

408
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: Uh you remember last year Week three, they had that

409
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: huge lead against Dallas and they coughed it up at

410
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: the end in one of those epic collapses. Right now,

411
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: right now, Atlanta, it's a very shot prick by you.

412
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: It's they are very much and under the radar team.

413
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: They lost Julio Jones again. You're gonna get favorable market

414
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,639
Speaker 1: lines until the markets figure out at Lant is not

415
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: that bad as people think they are. You're gonna get

416
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: favorable market lines. I think Philadelphia is an absolute hot mess.

417
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: They won't get any money. They just won't get any

418
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: of my money this year. I don't know Nick Sirianni

419
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: inherited a real issue there. And I'm really not sure

420
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: if Jalen Hurts is a major league quarterback. So you

421
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: got two rookie coaches going at each other, But give

422
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: me the Hall of Fame quarterback against the quarterback any day.

423
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: I am curious what do you read anything at all

424
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: into the Eagles grabbing Gardner Minshew from the Jags? Is

425
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: that just a bargain basement move? Is that like, hey,

426
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 1: you know what, we're not sold on Hurts? Like what

427
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: do you think that is? Because they're obviously not playing

428
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: for the playoffs this year. If anything, they're probably end

429
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: up tanking in the second half of the season. What

430
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: do you what you read on the Eagles and Minshew?

431
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: It was two things. First of all, he's a he's

432
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: a quarterback who started and had success in the NFL.

433
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: Make it on the first song. They got it for nothing,

434
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: so you take a flyer, it doesn't work out, and

435
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: you move on. But it's Jimmy. It's an indicator that

436
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts has a long way to go. I just

437
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,479
Speaker 1: don't think Jalen Hurts. I love the guy. I love him.

438
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: Alabama will always remember what he did when he came

439
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: off the bench and uh and the way he conducted himself.

440
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: He lost a job and went to Oklahoma what its

441
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: terrific human being. I don't think he's a major league quarterback.

442
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: And I think Philadelphia knows that Fox Sports Radio has

Speaker 1: week one, Uh, believe it or not, I'll tell you what.

448
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: Believe it or not, it's going to be the New

449
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. Oh wow, No, I didn't see that coming.

450
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: To say more, well, I'm not. I can't see him.

451
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: A big fan of Jameis Winston. Okay, he's forty two

452
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: as a starter. Obviously, he's a he's a guy where

453
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: you know who who likes to call off the ball up.

454
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 1: He had thirty you know interceptions two years ago and

455
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 1: they were horrible. Six were in the first quarters, six

456
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: were in the first possession, six were picked six and

457
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 1: six when they were leading in the fourth quarter. But

458
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: I've always liked Sean Payton in that defense as an underdog.

459
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: And I think you're Green Bays just just a tat

460
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: over priced in this game going down there when the

461
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 1: games mean play in Jacksonville, Right, it's gonna be played

462
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: outside in Jacksonville's not not even home game. But I

463
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: think I think it's one of those games where New

464
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: Orleans who's always played their divisional rivals that are leading

465
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: divisional rivals very tough. I have a lot of faith

466
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: in Sean Payton, so that'll be my number one dog.

467
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: Is this like a big picture thing on the Staints

468
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: that you think there will be value on them going

469
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 1: forward this year? Is this just a strictly looking at

470
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: Week one. I haven't looked at their schedule, but I'm

471
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: not in on this team at all this year. In fact,

472
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 1: I have to wait and see. But for some other reason,

473
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: they're eight and one against the number of the last

474
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,959
Speaker 1: three years when Drew Brees didn't start. Yeah, so they

475
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: you know they've got to I love Alvin Camara, I

476
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: love Michael Thomas. I think their defense is is is

477
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 1: better he is. I would say their defense is going

478
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: to be better, and then people realize, Um, you know,

479
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see some packages for Taysom Hill.

480
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: Just one of those situations where it's hard enough to

481
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: win on the NFL, hard enough to win on the

482
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: road with the late points. Although I will say one thing,

483
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 1: I have my eye on the Denver Broncos. I love them.

484
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how much I like Teddy Bridgewater,

485
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: Jason because in Minnesota he was a missfield goal away

486
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: from beating Seattle in the playoffs. Wasn't his fault. He

487
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: led the team to eleven and five season that year.

488
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: In New Orleans and twenty nineteen, Drew Brees goes down.

489
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: He holds a team meeting before the game in seattleis is,

490
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: guys are not Drew Brees. But if you get on

491
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: my back and follow me, I won't let you down.

492
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: They proceed to go five and all with Teddy Bridgewater.

493
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 1: New Orleans finishes up thirteen and three. When you look

494
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: at Teddy bridge Road his career, he's thirty five and

495
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: fourteen against the spread. He's twenty one in three against

496
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: the number on the road. That's a number. Teddy Bridgewater

497
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: is twenty one and three against the number on the road.

498
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 1: They're laying less than the field goal. And that's with

499
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: hold On. That's with the Vikings and Saints. So two

500
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: pretty good teams and a lot of those games they

501
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: were underdogs. But I you know, I have no faith

502
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones can get to a game without turning

503
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: it released twice and I gotta take big Fangio. There's

504
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: a reason went with Teddy Bridgewaters. I'm the hot seat

505
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: went with the veteran who knows how to win. Denver's

506
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 1: defense is very underrated and their offense is stilled in

507
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 1: very nicely. Jason. The Giants are still trying to find

508
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: out who they held the out or Joe Judge. I

509
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: think they're still a glorified w w E team after

510
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: they fighting. I really don't have any idea how the

511
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: good the Giants are, but I'm gonna say I think

512
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: Denver's a playoff team, Jason, I really do. Wow. Yeah,

513
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: I'm I'm kind of with you there. Now. I didn't

514
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 1: I didn't realize there's Bridgewater numbers. I gotta look at

515
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: that closer. Uh, so Bernie, I will wrap up. I

516
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: just realized eight road favorites in week one. Um, that

517
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: seems like a large number to me? Is that Does

518
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: that mean the haves and the have nots? The gap

519
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 1: is widening? Or I thought there was like a large

520
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: middle class in the NFL this year. Yeah, I think

521
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: the gap is widening pretty pretty significant when you look

522
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: at the top teams like Tampa Bay, Green Bay, Kansas City,

523
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners. Uh, and then you know

524
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: the bottom teams, you know, the Lions and and the

525
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: Falcons and and right on down the line. I think

526
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: the gap is widening. The big, big takeaway story for

527
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 1: me this year, Jason, are all the rookie quarterbacks now,

528
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 1: eventually they're gonna see the field. We don't know when, uh,

529
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: Justin Fields will see the field. You might have to

530
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,880
Speaker 1: see as soon as week too. Obviously you've got you know, uh,

531
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, and you've got Zack Jones in with the Jets.

532
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: And I think these guys are gonna get on the

533
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 1: field with the real bullets flying in real NFL defenses.

534
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out about their competitive stamina and if

535
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: they can be a force multi flier for their teams.

536
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: In the last fifty years, quarterbacks have been drafted either

537
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 1: number one, number two, or number three overall. But believe

538
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,360
Speaker 1: it or not, in those fifty years, only two led

539
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: the team that drafted him to a Super Bowl. That

540
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: was true, Aigman and Peyton Manning and Bateman was one

541
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 1: in the fifteen his first year. So you've really got

542
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,239
Speaker 1: to be patient with these guys. And yeah, you know,

543
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 1: I think they're a fade early on because you're gonna

544
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: see things they just haven't seen. Yeah. And and the

545
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: tough thing about that status, usually the first guy to

546
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 1: be picked at quarterback in the draft never turns out

547
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 1: to be the best, Right. It's usually like Patrick Mahomes

548
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: goes ten to Tom Brady sixth round, Russell Wilson the

549
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: third round. I mean you could argue, dak Um, where

550
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: did that go? Third or fourth round? Round? Yeah, But

551
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: I mean there's just so many guys who did not

552
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: go number one overall, who for whatever reason, chip on

553
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: the shoulder Aaron Rodgers blah blah blah like that. That

554
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: is a weird oddity. Huh. It is. And because you

555
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: can never simular eight what will happen when they get

556
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 1: to the league and how they're gonna deal with failure

557
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: and how they're gonna be able to process all the

558
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: new things that they're seeing that they've never seen before.

559
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,360
Speaker 1: And they're gonna get hit more than Rocky bull Ball.

560
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna be facing teams that want to knock their

561
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: block off. Look, I'm glad you mentioned Tom Brady though,

562
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: because I do believe Tampa Bay is gonna repeat when

563
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. They've got all twenty starters back, They're

564
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 1: loaded this Brady guy continues to just Brady Guy covered

565
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: him in Michigan for crant Lot. You know what, you

566
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: know what's interesting about Tom Brady, Jason, here's something you'll

567
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 1: get a kicked out of. Last year alone, Tom Brady,

568
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: he threw four more yards and Aaron Rodgers he did

569
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: more touchdown passes in Patrick Maholmes. And then he beats

570
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: the Chiefs by twenty two in the Super Bowl. And

571
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: he's forty four, and he's better than ever, and he's

572
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: got his receivers and he's got his route trees, and

573
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: he's healthy and his knees fixed and he looks fantastic.

574
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: And in his career, over three starts, Brady has only

575
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: lost two in a row once one really, So I'm

576
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: looking at Tampa Bay is a fourteen and three type

577
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: team that's loaded, angry, ready to do it again, and

578
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: there's a quarterback I think. I don't think I'll fade

579
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: him all year. I can't lie. I did grab Tampa

580
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: Bay minus seven week one. That feels like it's twenty

581
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: eight to thirteen all over, you know. Yeah, as I read,

582
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: as we do this, I look at the line, it

583
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: looks like it's eight now, um, wow, so you've got

584
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: a good number. And again, listen, everybody, you got to

585
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: get the best numbers. So if you missed seven, you

586
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: know that doesn't mean you have to grab eight, right, Bernie,

587
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: like you could again, we can do the teaser like

588
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: you're getting the bad number. And Dak Prescott somebody be

589
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: a backdoor cover guy right with that offense. Always always

590
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: want to get the best of the number. Look what

591
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: happened in college football just last week. Some people got

592
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: Ohio State at thirteen and a half, some got him

593
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: at fourteen, fourth and a half and lands on fourteen. Right,

594
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: Look what happened with Boise State. And see if you

595
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: some people got Ceef you at four and a half, five,

596
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: others got five and a half, six, six and a

597
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 1: half in it landed on five one other tons of

598
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: the radar team. And I know this doesn't make any

599
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: sense because on a roster you could take your uniform

600
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: name off. You look at this rosteron Oh my goodness,

601
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: they're on the short list to go to the Super Bowl.

602
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: I've really got my eye on the Cleveland Browns. I

603
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: had to hold anze that and I'll tell you something else, Jason,

604
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: watch him early because nine of their first eleven opponents

605
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: finished under five. So I look for Cleveland to wake

606
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: up and Thanksgiving and be a you know, a nine

607
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,239
Speaker 1: and one, eight and two tech team. I love it.

608
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,240
