We 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: see most gamblers when they go to gamble, they go 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:20,119 Speaker 1: to winning. O. 7 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 3: God, that's incredible. 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 4: Big bank, small banks. 9 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 3: I like to make money. 10 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 4: All right, this is the ultimate kabani. 11 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: You want to pay. 12 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 3: And we are good the way. 13 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 5: Welcome to the Action Network Podcast. I'm Brandon Anderson, joined 14 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,239 Speaker 5: as always by Raheem Palmer, and we finally made it 15 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 5: to Week one football. Rahim, me and you have been 16 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 5: watching football for the last eleven hours straight, but we 17 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 5: made it through. 18 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 4: How did you do in Week one? How you feeling? 19 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: You know, it was a little disappointed in Cleveland they 20 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: kind of choked it away on the money line, but 21 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: I mean that came in with the plus six. We 22 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: got some profitable wagers, so I can't complain. 23 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good. I filed I'm picking every 24 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 5: game on the slate this year, so I was very 25 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 5: nervous to see how that was going to go. Finished 26 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 5: out nine to five and one so far plus tomorrow's game. 27 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 5: So it's a solid start. Although me with my crazy 28 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 5: long shots, did I tried a five way parlay with 29 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 5: my five favorite bets and ended up missing out by 30 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 5: Damien Harris fumble r at the end of that New 31 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 5: England game. Otherwise I would hit that one. 32 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: Miami's turn overlook has just been insane for years. 33 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 4: It just doesn't go away. 34 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 5: And then I was back with a six way same 35 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 5: game parlay tonight that was hanging on by a thread, 36 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 5: and then that last ram score knocked it away. So 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 5: you know this is this All parlays go five way 38 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 5: and six way.

As always, our odds come from 65 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 5: bet MGM, the official odds provider of the Action Network podcast. 66 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: So let's set the stage. 67 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 5: Today was a day for the underdogs, So underdogs on 68 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 5: the day on fourteen games, underdogs went ten to four 69 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 5: against the spread today and they went eight and six outright, 70 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 5: including five of those eight wins came on the road 71 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 5: and really the Saints also you know as a neutral 72 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 5: side game. So it was a big day for underdogs. 73 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 5: None bigger though, than the Buffalo Bills. So let's start there. 74 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 5: At the top of the day, the Bills were six 75 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 5: and a half point favorites. They lost to the Steelers 76 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 5: twenty three to sixteen, so we went under on that one, 77 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 5: and the Steelers cashed a big money line plus two 78 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 5: forty if you played that one. So raheem, what do 79 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 5: you make of the Steelers and Bills? Did you see 80 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 5: this one coming? 81 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting because you know, these two 82 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: teams played last year towards the end of the year 83 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: and Buffalo was laying three points, so for Buffalo would 84 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: be laying six and a half kind of weird. You 85 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: saw sharp money actually hit the Steelers and pushed this 86 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: line down a little bit. Buffalo came out hot, and 87 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: you know, it looked like they were they were just gonna, 88 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, pick up where they left off last year, 89 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: and then Pittsburgh's defense kind of held him down and 90 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh went out there and scored twenty straight points. 91 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 3: Josh Allen looks like he regressed. 92 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: I mean he had a zero point zero eight negative EPA, 93 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: which is expected points added. If you look at their 94 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 1: game last year, he was a positive EPA he was 95 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: point one two and he had a total EPA for 96 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: the game at six point four. Yesterday he had a 97 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: total EPA of minus five point eight. Buffalo is like 98 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: they're typically one of the most past happy teams on 99 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: first down in the league. On early passes. In this game, 100 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: they had an EPA of negative one point up. So 101 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: it's just like the things that they did well last year, 102 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: they didn't do well. Josh Allen struggled with deep ball accuracy. 103 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: So I just thought it was a really interesting game. 104 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: You saw it the Still's defenses really for real. 105 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean we know the Steelers defense was going 106 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 5: to show up. And I do worry a little bit 107 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 5: about the things you said that we suspected we might 108 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 5: see some regression, and you know, we saw Brian Dable 109 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 5: and Josh Allen light up teams last year, and I 110 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 5: don't think teams really knew what was coming like that. 111 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 5: Now we've had an entire season, entire offseason that is 112 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 5: to prepare for this, to prepare for that aggression early 113 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 5: downs like you talked about, to prepare for that deep ball, 114 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 5: and you know Stefan digs down the field, and especially 115 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 5: when you're a defense that's as good as the Steelers is. 116 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 5: You know we I think we both expect them to 117 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 5: take a little bit of a step back this year. 118 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 5: But still they're clearly very good, and they were ready, 119 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 5: they had a plan for it. And now Josh Allen 120 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 5: was thirty to fifty one. That's under sixty percent completion, 121 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 5: which is never a good start. Five point three yards 122 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 5: per attempt not good. Josh Allen was that was really 123 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 5: high last year, so that's a huge step back. He 124 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 5: had another fumble, which has been a constant theme with them. 125 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 5: Here's the thing, though, the Bills ran twenty four more plays. 126 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 5: They went eight out of eighteen on third downs, pretty good, 127 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 5: so they're moving the ball, they're getting things going. What 128 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 5: happened was they went one out of four in the 129 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 5: red zone, which will always kill you, and we know 130 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 5: that that's a pretty flukey staff that's hard to predict. 131 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 5: They also had that punt block for a touchdown. They 132 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 5: lost by a touchdown, So take away the punt block, 133 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 5: which is a fluke play, flip some of the red 134 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 5: zone stuff. I think you play this game again, even 135 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 5: with the regression factors, even with the Steelers playing well, 136 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 5: and the Bills are right in it and maybe win 137 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 5: a bunch of them. So I don't know that I 138 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 5: feel like the sky is falling on Buffalo, But my 139 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 5: sky for Buffalo is a little bit lower, I think 140 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 5: than most were thinking anyway. So I don't know what's 141 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 5: your big picture takeaway for Buffalo on this are they? 142 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 4: Are they still one of those top Super Bowl contenders. 143 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: I think it comes down to Josh Allen and if 144 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: he could be that elite quarterback that he was last year. 145 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: If he can't, then I'm really concerned about this team. 146 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: And I think that's really what it comes down to. 147 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so I'm not ready to go too 148 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 5: hog wild on the Steelers just yet. The six and 149 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 5: a half that was a lot of points to give 150 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh on the road. Mike Tomlin as an underdog has 151 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 5: always been very good, So I can't say I expected 152 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 5: the Steelers to pull the upset, but I'm also not 153 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 5: completely blindsided. But this had the feel of that early 154 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 5: wild card Saturday afternoon weekend game, like the first playoff game, 155 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 5: Like oh baby, Buffalo bills back in the playoffs, and 156 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 5: then you're watching and it's like it's halftime and it's 157 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 5: seven to three, and nothing is happening that early AFC game. 158 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 5: Every time this big Ben looked really washed, and then 159 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 5: he made a few throws in the second half. He 160 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 5: kind of came through down the stretch. He got warmed up. 161 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 5: So I don't know, I feel like Buffalo is pretty good. 162 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 5: I feel like Pittsburgh is still pretty good. I'm not 163 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 5: really ready to go too crazy on either end of it, 164 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 5: but I think, you know, it's a good game. I 165 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 5: definitely did not see that as the big upset of 166 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 5: the day. I know one game that both of us 167 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 5: were very excited to watch ann excited talk about is 168 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 5: the Los Angeles Chargers and a Washington football team. Those 169 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 5: are two teams. You were very high on both of 170 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 5: those going to the season. I was less so in Washington, 171 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 5: but both of us were high. I think on the Chargers. 172 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 5: The Chargers came out with the win twenty to sixteen, 173 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 5: so that was another They covered the two and got 174 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 5: the money line to win plus one ten and we 175 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 5: hit the under there. So what do you think the 176 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 5: Chargers and Washington. You've been high on both. What are 177 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 5: you making of this game? 178 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: The Chargers won a game that they typically would lose 179 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: in other years. Over the last two seasons, they were 180 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: seven to sixteen straight up in games just got it 181 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: by one score. Today they finally got it done. And honestly, 182 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: it's probably a game when you look at the metrics 183 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: that probably shouldn't have been decided by one scores. The 184 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: Chargers made a ton of mistakes and I want to 185 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: for one day. They fumbled deep in the end zone 186 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: and washing territory, which gave Washington a touchback. 187 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 5: Was crazy, by the way, that was like a twenty 188 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 5: yard forward pass that we decided as a fumble, Like 189 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 5: what is a fumble anymore? 190 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: You know? 191 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: It was a fumble though, I mean when they actually 192 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: zoomed into it, like Montes Sweat did actually cut him 193 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: in and it looked like a fumble. 194 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 3: But it looked like on first glance, You're like, what. 195 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 5: Is this like exactly the way that the Chargers lose 196 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: yet another game every single season. They're like, oh, here's 197 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 5: a new way to lose, but it didn't happen this time. 198 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 4: You're right, yeah. 199 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 3: But I think the big key is that Justin Herbert 200 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 3: is a star. 201 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this team they I'm gonna say a star 202 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: like I look at him like a superstar. In the 203 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: sense that anytime you go out there and you complete 204 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: fourteen of eighteen third downs, and I know the final 205 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: stats is fourteen and nineteen, but they kneeled on the 206 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: last third down. Washington is, you know, stopping him on 207 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: first down and second down, and then on third down. 208 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: It's third and long, third and seven, third and twenty 209 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: five third and twelve. Justin Herbert is just getting the 210 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: ball out there to Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. 211 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 3: And you know, Keithan. 212 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: Allen went out there and had seventeen catches for one 213 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty two yards. So as much as I 214 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: thought highly of this Washington defense, I'm not sure if 215 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: the secondary is as good as what we thought they were. 216 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: And they just didn't get a ton of pressure on 217 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: Herbert and the way that I thought that they would, 218 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: and yet they still had a chance to win his 219 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: game because of the mistakes, and ultimately it came down 220 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 1: to Gibson fumble. 221 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 3: But I think the question I want to. 222 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: Ask you is, are we sure Taylor Hennicky is an 223 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: upgrade over Ryan Switzpatrick. 224 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure so, I just I don't think you know, Fitzpatrick, 225 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 5: I was excited about because I loved the big arm 226 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 5: and I loved his fit in this offense. I loved 227 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 5: the idea of him hooking up deep down the field 228 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 5: with Terry McLure and over and overall season, I think 229 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 5: wanted to get like thirteen yards and he's out and 230 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 5: it sounds like it's not going to be a short 231 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 5: thing either. Washington plays Thursday, I'd be pretty surprised at 232 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 5: this point if he's a go for that, and we'll see, 233 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 5: We'll see what Taylor Hanekey looks like. 234 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 4: If you know, if he steps in. He looked pretty 235 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,599 Speaker 4: good last year, he was solid and playoff game, for sure. 236 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: He looked better than a lot of quarterbacks against the 237 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: Bucks last year in that playoff game. And then I 238 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: mean even what he did today, I mean, look at 239 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: what they he did today. He was eleven to fifteen, 240 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty two yards eight yard average a touchdown. 241 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: He had a quarterback rating of one nineteen. He actually 242 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: led them in a field goal range. They missed the 243 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: field goal. I just I mean, he put them in 244 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: position to win, and you know, Gibson fumbled it away 245 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: and then obviously he got. 246 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 3: The ball into charger territory. They're always gonna be the 247 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 3: San Diego a little bit. 248 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: He got them into charge of territory and they ended 249 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: up punting and they never got. 250 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: The ball back. 251 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 5: Yeah, I will say this though. Heinike had one hundred 252 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 5: and nineteen quarterback rating but only a thirty eight QBR, 253 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 5: and like both of look, we know both of those 254 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 5: numbers are fropped, like if they only can tell us 255 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 5: so much to all in one sort of metrics. But 256 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 5: the QP rating is high because he completed a lot 257 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 5: of passes, he had a touchdown, he didn't turn it over, 258 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 5: which is all good. 259 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 4: Those are all good things. 260 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 5: But QBR, I know at least kind of takes into 261 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 5: account game situation and so like that. That tells me 262 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 5: that there's maybe some kind of check down, easy completion 263 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 5: sort of thing in there. To me, I think that 264 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 5: Fitzpatrick gave Washington this offensive ceiling, like I thought they 265 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 5: could really dial it up and do some stuff. Heinekey 266 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 5: maybe is going to be a better game manager. Fitzpatrick 267 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 5: is a turnover machine, and all this has been so 268 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 5: maybe for this team, maybe now Washington turns into Denver 269 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 5: of the NFC with their defense and more of a 270 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 5: Teddy Bridgewater tape quarterback. I'm intrigued by that. To me, though, 271 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,319 Speaker 5: the takeaway in this game is just I'm I was 272 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 5: excited about the Chargers. I am in on the Chargers now. 273 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 5: Herbert just was so good in this game. The one 274 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 5: time I opened up my notes, I was watching it, 275 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 5: he put it through another dime, just hit someone in 276 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 5: the hands, and I opened up my notes to make 277 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 5: a note about man Herbert's ballplacement has been so good, 278 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 5: and lo and behold the very next play. As I'm 279 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 5: typing that in, he throws the interception in the red zone. 280 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 5: Just bad read try to you know, try to do 281 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 5: it too much. Overthrew it interception and I was like, oh, 282 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 5: then what happens. They get the stop, they get the 283 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 5: ball back, and he grabs them right down and throws 284 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 5: a perfect dime touchdown pass. And I just I loved 285 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 5: what I saw from him. I love what I saw 286 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 5: from the Chargers. Yeah, they you mentioned the third down conversion. 287 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 5: The Chargers had twenty nine more plays in this game 288 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 5: that twenty seven first downs only fifteen. They dominated this game, 289 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 5: and it's a little worrisome that they still easily could 290 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 5: have lost. But again, like you said, they won. This 291 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 5: is the game that the Chargers always lose. They always 292 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 5: lose this game, and I think we're all waiting for it, 293 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 5: waiting for that other shoot to drop. And they got 294 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 5: the win, and if they can start flipping things a 295 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 5: little bit in that direction, I think. You know, I 296 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 5: guess I'm very excited now Cowboys Chargers next week. To me, 297 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 5: those are two kind of sleeper teams that had a 298 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 5: really good showing this first week, and I'm excited for 299 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 5: that that one just to watch too high flying offenses. 300 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 5: I think it will be coming back to that one 301 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 5: for a hot read later on. But I'm just excited 302 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 5: to see what where both of those teams are going. 303 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,559 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, without a doubt. And you know I'm a 304 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys fan, so I definitely want to see that game. 305 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I know you're a Cowboys fan. I know 306 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 5: you're also in afhiliate. So let's talk about Philadelphia and Atlanta. 307 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,359 Speaker 5: I got this one wrong. I thought that the Falcons 308 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 5: had a bit of an advantage here, and they clearly done. 309 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 4: The Eagles dominated. 310 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: I look at the Eagles and I look at the Falcons, 311 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: and I've realized that there's a massive disadvantage, and the 312 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: massive disadvantage is the Falcons offensive line and the Eagles 313 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: defensive line. They still got Fletcher Coxy. He's not an 314 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: easy guy to block. And if you have a Falcons 315 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: offensive line, you lose Alex Matt his replacement got hurt. 316 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 3: It's just you're in a tough position. 317 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: So I think I was coming into this game film 318 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: like the Eagles could win outright, and we knew that 319 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: Author Smith was going to run the ball early and often, 320 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: and to me, Matt Ryan couldn't do much. So surprised 321 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: that the Eagles won thirty two to six, But I'm 322 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: not surprised that they won. I mean, Mett Ryan was 323 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: onder stage all day, three sex twenty eight yards, So 324 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: I think that's that's the thing that I noticed, and 325 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: we all knew coming into this to this season, and 326 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: Falcons don't have a ton of talent on defense. 327 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was excited for what the Falcons might be. 328 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 5: I think that my takeaway here is that it's going 329 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 5: to take some time. There's just not a lot of 330 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 5: talent there. I was excited about Atlanta because of Arthur 331 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 5: Smith and what the offense would look like, and I 332 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 5: liked it early the first drive seventy two yards and 333 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 5: then they settled for a field goal. Second drives seventy 334 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 5: four yards and then settled for a field goal they 335 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 5: couldn't convert in the red zone, and then they never 336 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 5: made it back. So seventy two and seventy four on 337 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 5: those drives the next or the rest of the game. 338 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 5: Ten more drives seventy seven yards total the entire rest 339 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 5: of the game. So I don't know if that was 340 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 5: because they had the early place scripted or if the 341 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 5: Eagles figured something out, but it just disappeared entirely. And 342 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 5: I think to me, both of the Pennsylvania teams showed 343 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 5: that they maybe have a higher floor than we were 344 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 5: giving them credit for. 345 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 4: Just with good defense. 346 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 5: You know, Philadelphia with their good offensive line right now 347 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 5: while it's healthy. Hurts made a few throws in this game. 348 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 4: You know, I gotta give him a little credit. 349 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 5: DeVante Smith made a nice touchdown. You know, the Eagles 350 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 5: could be solid, and especially with Washington, you know, losing Fitzpatrick, 351 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 5: with Dallas losing that first game in a couple of 352 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 5: key losses, maybe there's something there with the Eagles. But 353 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 5: to me, this was about Arthur Smith. So Let's go 354 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 5: to Arthur Smith's old team, the Tennessee Titans, and boy 355 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 5: did they miss him. They got blown out off the 356 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 5: field thirty eight to thirteen by the Arizona Cardinals, who 357 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 5: we dumped on the entire preseason. So was this more 358 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 5: about the Cardinals or more about the Titans? 359 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 4: To you? 360 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 3: I think this was the Cardinals. 361 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: I mean I didn't expect the Cardinals defense to look 362 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: this legitimate. I mean Chandler Jones went out head there 363 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: and had five sacks. JJ Watt was in the backfield dominating. 364 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: I mean through the first half of again, Derrick Henry 365 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: had nine yards. 366 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: I mean, I know you took the Derrick Henry under 367 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 3: yards and I know I wrote an. 368 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: Article about why you should fade Derrek Henry this season, 369 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: but nine yards in the first half. The Titans can't 370 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: win if that's happened. And the offense for Arizona, I 371 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: mean they look really, really, really good. 372 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 3: I mean you got Christian Kirk catching two. 373 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: Touchdowns, you got aj Green, ron Dale Moore, Kyler Murray, 374 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hoppins. 375 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 3: I mean they look scary. I mean they look like. 376 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: What we thought they would look like when Cliff Kingsbury 377 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: came into the league and was supposed to tear, you know, 378 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: tear the NFL up, And I mean, I know some 379 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: of that had to do with the Titans, but you 380 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: got to give a team credit when you dominate the 381 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: way they did. 382 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, Kyler Murray had a huge game, four touchdown passes 383 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 5: and a TV run. 384 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 4: I saw it. Bet MGM. 385 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 5: Kyler Murray is now the second favorite to win MVP 386 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 5: at plus nine hundred. That's crazy to me. I can't 387 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 5: recommend you playing that one. But if he keeps one 388 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 5: of five touchdowns every week, I guess we'll after revisit 389 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 5: the conversation. But to me, this was the other side 390 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 5: of the ball that caught my eye, and it's back 391 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 5: to the Arthur Smith's thing. First of all, the Titans 392 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 5: offensive line is in big trouble, and I think that's 393 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 5: where Derrick Henry struggled as well to be able to 394 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 5: get his year. He wasn't getting any holes. There's nothing there. 395 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 5: Ryan Tannehill was under pressure all game. The Titans today 396 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 5: ran forty two pass plays and Tannehill got sacked six times, 397 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 5: and they weren't hooking up the deep ball like they 398 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 5: usually were under Arthur Smith. On forty two pass plays, 399 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 5: they netted one hundred and sixty two yards. That's three 400 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 5: point nine net yards per pass play, and that is 401 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 5: terrible and not even anywhere nearer where they were last 402 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 5: last year, the last couple of years under Smith Chandler 403 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 5: Jones had five sacks today. That's a season, dude, like 404 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 5: that the entire season for a lot of players. JJ 405 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 5: Watt was looking good. That front set on Arizona was 406 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 5: absolutely manhandling Tennessee. So that to me as a vikingspan, 407 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 5: we got a play Arizona next week, and I've seen 408 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 5: what our line is doing or not doing. 409 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 4: That looks like trouble. 410 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 5: And if that defensive front seven can stay that good 411 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 5: and Kyler Murray keeps dealing, then this entire division. Maybe 412 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 5: Arizona is not necessarily the fourth team in the division. 413 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 5: This team could really do something there. I gotta mention too, 414 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 5: if you played the total on this one, you got 415 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 5: a brutal beat because the line was at fifty four 416 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 5: and at the end of the third quarters thirty eight 417 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,479 Speaker 5: to thirteen, and these teams were just going every direction 418 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 5: up and down the field, and then we got to 419 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter and got zero points, absolutely nothing We 420 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 5: just ran the clock out for the final fifteen minutes 421 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 5: and hit the under by three points on that after 422 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 5: we had scored you know, fifty one points the first 423 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 5: three quarters, seventeen points a quarter, and then just sat 424 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 5: it out and wait till the end. So if you 425 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 5: missed out on that under, my apologies, that is a 426 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 5: rough one. Yeah, that was absolutely Brutal's let's stay in 427 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 5: the division with the Titans. Speaking of absolutely, let's just 428 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 5: run through the AFC South, because my god, this division 429 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 5: is awful. 430 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 4: So let's go to the Colts next. The Colts host 431 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 4: of the Seahawks. 432 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 5: We've all talked about that when the entire offseason, the 433 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 5: Colts started as favorites, the Seahawks closed as a three 434 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 5: point favorite. Seattle kind of just comfortably won this game 435 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 5: in a way that is not really very Seattle, like 436 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 5: they just did their thing. It was twenty eight to sixteen, 437 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 5: they covered easily, we hit the under. 438 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 4: What do you make of what Seattle did? Was this 439 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 4: a dominant performance for you? 440 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 1: I think it was very reminiscent of what we saw 441 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: exactly one year ago with Seattle playing the Falcons. 442 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 3: I mean they dominated. 443 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: They went into Atlanta and dominated the Falcons in the 444 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: same exact fashion, and right after the game, everybodys saying 445 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson could win MVP. 446 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 3: But I look at this Coats team. 447 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: I mean, we knew coming in that they had problems 448 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, and I think one of the 449 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: things that I'm going to continually stress that like throughout 450 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: this podcast, is that football's one of the trenches. I mean, 451 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: they had to retirement Anthony Costanzo, Eric Fisher was fresh 452 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: off with a Kelly's injury. He's not playing. Quentin Nelson 453 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: got hurt. You got Carson Wentz back there and he 454 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: really struggled. I mean the coach gave up three sacks. 455 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: They had ten quarterback hits. If Seattle was if this 456 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: pass rush they have had in this particular game can 457 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: translate to other games, I think Seattle was scary because 458 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's gonna give you an opportunity to win the game. 459 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: I mean, Tyler Lockett made one of the greatest catches 460 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: I've ever seen of all time with the pass Russell 461 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: threw in the adjustment in the air, So I wasn't surprised. 462 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: And Xavier Rose didn't play, so it's just that's too 463 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: much to overcome. 464 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, we were both all over Seattle on this one. 465 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 5: This was such an obvious play that the only reason 466 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 5: not to play it was that it was such an 467 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 5: obvious play. 468 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 4: It was such an easy read that I was. 469 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 5: Afraid to do too much on it, just because it 470 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 5: seems so clear, you know, when when Carson Wentz and 471 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 5: offensive line just had really not had any time together before, 472 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 5: and you know, then losing roads as well, and I 473 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 5: just feel like this is this is the game that 474 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 5: was going to happen. 475 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 4: So here's my question to you. 476 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 5: I'm gonna ask you a trivia questions even come up with, 477 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 5: and I have a follow up. So Carson Wentz was 478 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 5: the fifth straight New Colts opening day starter. How many 479 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 5: of the last four can you name? And then I 480 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 5: want to know which one we think Carson Wentz. 481 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 4: Is closest to. So who did we have before Carson? 482 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so before Carson, we had Philip Rivers. Before before that, 483 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: we had Jacoby Brezett. Correct before that we had shoot 484 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: what's his name guy who retired. 485 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 4: Your luck good luck? 486 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 3: And then before that this is the last one, this 487 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 3: is the one I don't know. 488 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 5: Before that was Scott Tolesen, Wisconsin's own Scott Tolsen, who 489 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 5: remember that started and then it came out midway through 490 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 5: the first game. It was just Forset the rest of 491 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 5: the way. So four very different quarterbacks. My question for you, 492 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 5: based on what we saw today and what we've known 493 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 5: about Carson Wentz, which one of those four right now 494 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 5: do we think that Indianapolis is getting Which one is 495 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 5: Wentz gonna be closest to. 496 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: I'm not going to put him on a level with 497 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: Scott quote Tozine, because I think Scott Tolzine was totally 498 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: anti competitive, So I think he's somewhere between Scott Tolzine 499 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: and Jacoby Brissett. 500 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 5: So I got a stand for my guy a little 501 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 5: bit here. I'm a Carson Wentz guy in North Dakota State. 502 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 5: I think that he was fine today. I thought it 503 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 5: wasn't a Carson problem. He was under pressure a lot, 504 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 5: which unfortunately is kind of becoming a theme with him. 505 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 5: He definitely holds the ball too long, He's taking some sacks. 506 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 5: But Indianapolis, I think that they really just came down 507 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 5: to that. They didn't convert on the important downs. They 508 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 5: went five and thirteen on third down They're ozer and 509 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 5: three on fourth down, which is basically a turnover turnover 510 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 5: on downs. This game was I think not actually so 511 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 5: far off. Seattle only had eighteen first downs. It never 512 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 5: really felt competitive, but looking at the numbers last year 513 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 5: and looking at the numbers after the game, it seems 514 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 5: relatively even Russell Wilson had a big game. He threw 515 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 5: four touchdowns. It felt like Seattle dominated the whole way. 516 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 5: Given what this division looks like, I'm gonna say Wentz 517 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 5: could be more like Rivers, and this is the old Rivers. 518 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 5: This is the about to retire Rivers, not the end 519 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 5: prime one. But I think that Wentz can be fine. 520 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 5: He can get his blocking in order, he can deliver 521 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 5: the ball. 522 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 4: I think that Wentz and this team could still make 523 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 4: the playoffs, if only because somebody has. 524 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 5: To in this division is right now, the Houston Texans 525 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 5: are leading the AFC South oh Maxans hosted the Jaguars 526 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 5: and they put the beating on them thirty seven to 527 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 5: twenty one. They covered the three and a half plus 528 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 5: one fifty on the money line. I played both of 529 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 5: those today. We hit the over by a mile. Houston 530 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 5: almost covered the over on their own, so Is this 531 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 5: a Houston thing or is this the Jacksonville thing. 532 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 3: I think this is definitely a Jacksonville thing. 533 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: I mean, we both said it on this podcast that 534 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: we felt that urban Meyer might be a little bit 535 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: over his head. I mean, for a team that we 536 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 1: expected to be as bad as Houston to go out 537 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: there and put thirty seven points on you, I think 538 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: it says a lot about the quality of this Jacksonville team. 539 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 4: It's rough. Trevor Lawrence. 540 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 5: This was his first regular season loss ever as a quarterback, 541 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 5: not in the NFL. College and high school, Trevor Lawrence 542 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 5: has never lost a regular season game, which is insane, 543 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 5: but good news for him. He's going to get a 544 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 5: lot of practice at doing that real soon in the NFL. 545 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 5: So my question is this right now, the Houston Texans 546 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 5: are want to know everyone else in the division is 547 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 5: zero to one? 548 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: Who's your pick doing the ANFC South? Right now? 549 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 5: You win with Tennessee heading into the season, is that 550 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 5: still how you're leaning right now? 551 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 4: Somebody's got to win this division? 552 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 3: Trust either. I don't trust any of these defenses at 553 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 3: the end of the day. 554 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people look at the Coast 555 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: defense from last year, and I always felt they were 556 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,239 Speaker 1: a little bit overrated. I mean, number twenty second in 557 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: passing success rate one defense last year, so I've seen 558 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: him get carved up in the same way that Russell 559 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: carve them today. So I'm not really that high on them, 560 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: and I think their offensive line is really a mess. 561 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 1: I still gotta I gotta stick. I mean, I can't 562 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: overreact after week one. I mean, I'm gonna stick with Tennessee. 563 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 1: I still think they're the best team in this division. 564 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that I'm sticking with Indianapolis for the 565 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 5: same reasons of just well, nobody looked good anyways, so 566 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 5: why move off the position right now. It's not like 567 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 5: I'm fearing Houston for any reason. 568 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 3: Now. 569 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 5: I was hoping we talked before about maybe playing the 570 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 5: loser of that game, which would be Jacksonville. Now with 571 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 5: their division odds, well, I needed Indianapolis and Tennessee to 572 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 5: win for that to matter because Jacksonville is still tied 573 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 5: with them, so it's not really a good spot after all. 574 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 4: So maybe just stay. 575 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 5: Away from that division, keep them after television, but you know, 576 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 5: bet against them. Well, I think we'll be playing a 577 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 5: lot of times against the AFC South you know in 578 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 5: some the season. 579 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: The Action Network podcast is proudly presented by bette MGM, 580 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 2: and to celebrate the twenty twenty one NFL season, betmgm 581 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 2: is offering a great sign up offer for our listeners, 582 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: a six hundred dollars risk free first bet.

Thanks so much for listening. 608 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 2: Let's get back to the show. 609 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 5: According to the Action Network app, the game that the 610 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 5: most of you bet on this week was none other 611 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 5: than San Francisco and the Detroit Lions. This thing was 612 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 5: a barn burner. I called it Blowout City, and it 613 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 5: looked the part. San Francisco is up thirty eight to ten, 614 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 5: and suddenly this thing blew wide open with the Lions 615 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 5: recovered an on side kick. The Lions recovered three fumbles 616 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 5: from the forty nine Ers. They stormed all the way 617 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 5: back to forty one to thirty three and then recovered 618 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 5: another fumble and had a shot to tie this thing 619 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 5: and send it to overtime. It was forty one to 620 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 5: seventeen with six minutes left when the Lions got the ball, 621 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 5: forty one to seventeen, and the Lions almost sent us 622 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 5: to overtime. So what looked like a forty nine Ers 623 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 5: dominant win ended up not even being a cover. The 624 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 5: Lions were nine point underdogs by the time this thing closed. 625 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 5: They lost by eight, So Detroit had one of the 626 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 5: early candidates for Cover of the year. We obviously hit 627 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 5: the over. Both teams nearly hit the over themselves. So 628 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 5: is this a bigger statement for Detroit or for San Francisco? 629 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 4: For you? 630 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 3: I think it's definitely a bigger statement for Detroit. 631 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: I mean, Dan Campbell came down in his opening press 632 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: conference and said that they were going to bite some 633 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: kneecaps and if you knock us down and we're going 634 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna need three hits and we're gonna bite you. 635 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: And I think this game was the epitome of debt. 636 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how long this is gonna 637 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: last and how successful he's gonna be. But I found 638 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: it encouraging that this team continued to fight for them. 639 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 3: Golf started off one for five for. 640 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: Twelve yards and an interception, and then Golf ended up 641 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: with three hundred and thirty eight passing yards and three touchdowns. 642 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: So I just think this is going to be one 643 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: of those scrappy teams. And I want to shout out 644 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: to Simon because Simon always says on the Favorite podcast, 645 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: he took Detroit and you know, a lot of us 646 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: didn't see. It was pretty ugly, but they eventually got 647 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: it done. So I think that says something about Detroit. 648 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean, sometimes these games take on a life of 649 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: their own, and you know, teams kind of relaxed, and 650 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: I think that's what that's the forty nine ers did. 651 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: This was their first game back where they had all 652 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: the guys healthy. I mean, we know that they were 653 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: one of the top teams in just the games loss 654 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: last year, so maybe the same focus wasn't there after 655 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: getting up to such a big lead. And I think 656 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers still going to be one of 657 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: the cream of the crops in the NFC West. 658 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 3: But I think it said a lot about the Troy. 659 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think for me, I'm gonna go a little 660 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 5: bit the other direction on this. To me, this is 661 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 5: just kind of a garbage, nothing, six minute segment from Detroila. 662 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 5: Good for them trying, good for them for pushing hard 663 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 5: for the coach. To me, though, this is opportunity. This 664 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 5: is going to mean that Detroit is overvalued and San 665 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 5: Francisco is undervalued. And I'm excited about it because Detroit 666 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 5: looked terrible for most of this game. For the part 667 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 5: that mattered, Detroit looked awful. Their offensive line was pretty good. 668 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 5: Panay Suwell was doing well in a tough spot. Lie 669 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 5: the offense was moving the ball. The Lion's defense was terrible. 670 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 5: The very first play of the game for the forty 671 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 5: nine ers, Jimmy Garoppolo fumbles a snap. After that until 672 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 5: a little bit into the second half, the forty nine 673 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 5: Ers got in a scoring position on every single. 674 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 4: Drive after that. That's when they went up to thirty 675 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 4: eight to ten. 676 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 5: They missed a field goal, they hit a field goal, 677 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 5: and they got five touchdowns. 678 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 4: That's what happened with this defense. 679 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 5: Jeff Okuda not having that sophomore breakout start that we 680 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 5: thought maybe would start to come around. It looks rough 681 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 5: like this defense with the pass was rough last year. Yeah, 682 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 5: it was rough last year, but it was easy to 683 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 5: blame the coaches and whatever else says. Yeah, snow actually 684 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 5: matters too, So I think San Francisco is very good 685 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 5: and showed it. I don't really make too much of 686 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 5: the late you know, giving up that late run, this 687 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 5: sup that put up the gas pedal. I'm excited about 688 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 5: my guy, Elijah Mitchell. I gave him out as a 689 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 5: possible long shot Rookie of the Year five hundred to 690 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 5: one on our podcast a few weeks ago. Elijah Mitchell 691 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 5: had one hundred and four yards and a touchdown today 692 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 5: where he mostered. It looks like he's be injured and 693 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 5: miss a little time. Trey Sermon was inactive today. The 694 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 5: higher rookie pick didn't even make the roster today. So 695 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 5: I think Mitchell is going to be the fantasy pick 696 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 5: up of the week. He's a good fit. He's a 697 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 5: one cut runner, He's gonna fit that situation well, and 698 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 5: we know they're going to run the ball a lot. 699 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 5: So I think Elijah Mitchell, he's not even on the 700 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 5: board at a lot of rookie of the year places 701 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 5: you can't even play, might keep watching him to put 702 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 5: some more on it, so he's sure his hack won't 703 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 5: be at five hundred to one anymore. But definitely something 704 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 5: to keep an eye on. Another thing, unfortunately, we have 705 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 5: to keep an eye on for the forty nine ers 706 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 5: Jason Barrett, I think is one of the big big 707 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 5: injuries of Week one. He tore his ACL and San 708 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 5: Francisco's secondary was already a bit of a weak spot, 709 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 5: like they're already pretty thin at cornerback, and Verrett can 710 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 5: be really good when he's healthy, just never stays healthy. 711 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 5: So this to me dropped San Francisco from something like 712 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 5: eighth to twelfth or something somewhere in there in my 713 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 5: defensive rankings. And it's that first Domino Week one. You know, 714 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 5: they're one more cornerback injury away now from from. 715 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 4: Real trouble there. 716 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 5: So that does you know that That does make me 717 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 5: a little sad for San Francisco's upside, as good as 718 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 5: things look today, But definitely something to keep an eye out. 719 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 5: One other thing we have to point out here with 720 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 5: this game and our next one, we'll just talk well briefly, 721 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 5: you've got to get the early lines on these games. 722 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 5: We mentioned before the lines covered the closing line of 723 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 5: plus nine. But I won on the forty nine ers 724 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 5: because I took them early in the week at seven 725 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 5: and a half and they won by eight. 726 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 4: So you've got to get that early line. 727 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 5: If you were waiting around till Sunday, you are missing 728 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 5: all that juicy line movement early in the week. 729 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 4: So without a doubt, yeah. 730 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I strussed this a lot, and 731 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 1: I think the markets are a lot sharper than they 732 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 1: have than And we've seen this trend over the last 733 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 1: five years where Monday morning, when the lines open up, 734 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: you have sharp money coming in. You can move the 735 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: market with like five hundred to one thousand dollars now, 736 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: And basically what these bookmakers are doing is they're letting 737 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 1: they're putting out a number, and they're letting the sharpest 738 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: better is in the market shape their number, and then 739 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: they're raising their limits to the week. So by the 740 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: time you get the Sunday, yeah, you can bet fifty 741 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand, five hundred thousand a million on the game. 742 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: But the bookmakers are already comfortable with taking that type 743 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: of action because they've sharpened the number throughout the week, 744 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: so you want to get that most inefficient line on 745 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday for sure. 746 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 5: So the Jets Panthers was another one where the same 747 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 5: problem happened. The Panthers got the win nineteen to fourteen. 748 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 5: The Jets came down for a late garbage time touchdown 749 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 5: and missed the two point conversion, and depending on when 750 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 5: you played this line, that two point conversion factored out 751 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,320 Speaker 5: whether you won or not. The Panthers covered the closing 752 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 5: line of three and a half, but the Jets were 753 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 5: five and a half earlier in the week, so you 754 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 5: didn't even need that two points if you got them then, 755 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 5: So I don't have too much else on this game. 756 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 5: The Jets were not you know, they're not good enough 757 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 5: right now. I'm Robert Sala, but they're just not ready. 758 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean, I this was a game that 759 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: I got wrong. I actually thought that the Jets offense 760 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: would look a lot like what it was in the 761 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: fourth quarter as opposed to what it was all game. 762 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: And it's pretty clear that this offense isn't ready yet. 763 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: I mean, the pass protection was absolutely brutal and now 764 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: they they may have lost their left tackle with a 765 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: serious knee injury. So I think you going into next week, 766 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 1: they're playing a Patriots team with a solid defense. I'm 767 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: not expecting a lot of points. It's forty three. That's 768 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: a game that I could see going under easily. And 769 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: when it comes to the Panthers, I think they're struggling 770 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 1: with the same issues that they had last year. They 771 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: just struggle inside of the rezone. So this is not 772 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 1: a team that's gonna put up a lot of points. 773 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: Darnold proved that he could play well against a bad team, 774 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: but what's he gonna do against the other teams in 775 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: the division. I mean, he has to play the Saints twice, 776 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: he has to play the Buccaneers twice, and those are 777 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: two teams they have shown us that they have some 778 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: of the best defense in the league. They got two 779 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: of the best defensive lines. So I'm not really that 780 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: high on either one of these teams. 781 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not really feeling it with either one of them. 782 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 5: The Jets seemed to me like I was excited about 783 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 5: what their team might look like because of the coaching upgrades, 784 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 5: but today was a reminder that you still got to 785 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 5: actually have the players carry out the orders. On the field, 786 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 5: and there's just not a lot of talent there. So 787 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 5: I'm definitely gonna have to back off the Jets a 788 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 5: little bit from where it was on them. I'm definitely 789 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 5: backing off my Minnesota Vikings. I think the season's over 790 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,240 Speaker 5: as a Vikings and the sky is falling. The Vikings 791 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 5: went to Cincinnati and what should have been one of 792 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 5: the easier games on the schedule, and they lost in 793 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 5: overtime twenty seven to twenty four. Minnesota's offensive line was 794 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 5: shambles in this game. In the first half alone, Minnesota's 795 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 5: o line had five fall starts in three holding. They 796 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 5: finished the game with twelve penalties for one hundred and 797 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 5: sixteen yards and three more decline penalties, and there was 798 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 5: eleven different cold penalties on the offensive line this game. 799 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 5: Minnesota had third and twenty four, third and twenty, third 800 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 5: and twenty four, fifteen, ten and twenty. 801 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 4: Six all by early in the third quarter. 802 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 5: They were just constantly playing behind the eight ball and 803 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 5: they shouldn't have been really taking it to overtime. 804 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 4: They're lucky to get it there. 805 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 5: So to me, I think that this today, I think 806 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 5: this is the beginning of the end for the Mike 807 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 5: zimmer and the Kirk Cousins era. 808 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 4: Tell me if I'm overreacting. 809 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 3: I was. Actually I would like you stole to words 810 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 3: out of my mouth. 811 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: And you know, I kind of felt that way even 812 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: coming into the season before all the like, with all 813 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 1: the stuff with the COVID situation, you know, And I 814 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: don't want to judge anybody's right to take the vaccine 815 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: and whatnot, but I do remember hearing Zimber being frustrated 816 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: about that this defense was supposed to be better, but 817 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: Anthony Barr still he doesn't play any football. I think 818 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: that's a big loss for them. You mentioned the offensive line, 819 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: which is a complete mess. I mean they had seventy 820 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: of the team's one hundred and sixteen penalty yards. I mean, 821 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: they just got pushed around. It's just for me. I 822 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: think this was a team in which sharp money actually 823 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 1: came on the on the over. So to see them 824 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: go into Cincinnati and put up this type of performance 825 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,479 Speaker 1: against a team that's really not that good, that doesn't 826 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: have a good offensive line, I think they're in trouble. 827 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 5: They are in trouble because if you look at the 828 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 5: schedule the next few weeks, you know, the Cardinals are 829 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 5: up next. They suddenly look like really a tough opponent, 830 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 5: especially with the way that front seven is playing against 831 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 5: US line. Seattle's After that, Minnesota never plays Seattle well 832 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,439 Speaker 5: and Russell Wilson tends to shred the defense. And later 833 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 5: in the year there's a really tough month. This is 834 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 5: this is the easy stretch. Minnesota needed a hot start, 835 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 5: and this was one of the games they had to win. 836 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 5: So I think that this really puts the Vikings behind 837 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 5: the eight ball. There's a lot of talent here, certainly 838 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 5: enough to overcome things, but this is you know, this 839 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 5: to me is one of the more damaging wins to 840 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 5: a playoff hopeful team that we had today. Teams like 841 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 5: the Bills that loss like, okay, well you lost to 842 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 5: a good team. This is just a bad loss, a 843 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 5: very bad loss that the Vikings shouldn't have done. We 844 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 5: wrapped up the early afternoon. We're gonna get to the 845 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 5: late afternoon. Cleveland and Kansas City was the game. We're 846 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 5: all excited about, the game of the day. I think 847 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 5: it lived up to the billing. The Chiefs ended up 848 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 5: winning thirty three to twenty nine. 849 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 4: We hit the over. 850 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 5: The Browns did cover the five, but could not quite 851 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 5: hang on to get the money line win. I know 852 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 5: you were big on Cleveland this week. What did you 853 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 5: make of this game? 854 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: I think it was one of the more frustrating games, 855 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: and it's a peak Brown's performance. I mean in terms 856 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: of how to blow a game. I mean they absolutely dominated. 857 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: They had more first downs. I mean they had eight 858 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: point two yards per play compared to the Chiefs six 859 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: point five yards per play. They had three hundred and 860 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: four passing yards. I mean they ran all over the 861 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,760 Speaker 1: Chiefs one hundred and fifty three rushing yards five point 862 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: nine yards per rush. I mean they did everything that 863 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,839 Speaker 1: you could possibly do in order to beat Kansas City. 864 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: I mean they came out Kevin the Fancy called an 865 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: incredible game. I mean going forward on fourth down, even 866 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 1: scoring a touchdown the opening touchdown and going for two, 867 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: I mean, and putting a pressure on Kansas City going 868 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: up fourteen three. I mean, you can't play as you 869 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: can't expect the team to play as well as the 870 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: Browns did and lose. And I think it all came 871 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: to game down to the Nick Chubb fumble. And after 872 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: the Nick Chub fumble, you know, Kansas City scored, the 873 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 1: Browns finally get stopped and then the black point and 874 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: I think I just think that changed the game and 875 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: the momentum was completely lost. So I think the Browns 876 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: are a legitimate super Bowl contender. And I think you 877 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: mentioned this on the last episode that you wanted to 878 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: bet the loser of this game to win a super Bowl. 879 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: So are you still is that something that you still 880 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: want to do? 881 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel good about it to me. 882 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 5: To me, these are just two good teams that played 883 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 5: a good game and one team one and one team loss, 884 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 5: like this is not the sky is falling. I joked 885 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 5: on Twitter about the Browns are really Browns again again 886 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 5: because that punter fumbled a snap and they gave up 887 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 5: the long Tyreek touchdown. It looked like there is the 888 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 5: disaster play where they tried to down the punt and 889 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 5: then Cleveland tried to pick it up and Kansas City 890 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 5: thought that a touchdown. That's just a good play by Cleveland. 891 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 5: That's the right play to do there. The Browns are 892 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 5: not brownsing things up. This is a good team. Eight 893 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,280 Speaker 5: point two yards of play is good. It's great. Baker 894 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 5: Mayfield average eleven and a half yards per attempt he 895 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 5: was fairing uugh downfield. I know he had the game. 896 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 5: See interception, he's trying to throw the ball away. That 897 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 5: wasn't a bad read. He was under pressure. You're trying 898 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 5: to do something, you go for the win. The Browns 899 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 5: have now in seventeen consecutive season openers, they have gone 900 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 5: without a win seventeen years. The last time Cleveland won 901 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 5: its season opener was two thousand and four, which featured 902 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 5: Jeff Garcia taking down Kyle Boller and the Baltimore Ravens. 903 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 5: That's how long it's been. But I'm not afraid. Cleveland 904 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 5: looked good. This to me look like, oh, here are 905 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 5: the two best teams in the AFC. We went had 906 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 5: to head. The Browns looked like they should have won. 907 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 5: It was on the road. Kansas City's fans I think 908 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 5: played a huge role in, you know, getting Baker in 909 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 5: the Cleveland off their game a little bit. It's a 910 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,839 Speaker 5: good matchup as two teams are very good. If they 911 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 5: played again, I would like or Cleveland's chances again, It's 912 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 5: just two teams that are going to be there. I 913 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 5: think when things matter in the end, So I will 914 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 5: say this nothing in sports is there a better bet 915 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 5: in football or in any sport right now than when 916 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes gets behind and you can bet Mahomes at 917 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 5: plus money on the money line, that's an absolute auto 918 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 5: bet for me anytime I get the chance, and I 919 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 5: will say this, I did the same thing with Aaron Rodgers. 920 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 5: Today didn't work out for me. I did the same 921 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 5: thing with Djokovic today didn't work out for me. But 922 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 5: I am willing to let my amazing talent guys get behind. 923 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 5: And Mahomes has won me so much money the incident 924 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 5: that he falls behind by like ten points automatic bet. 925 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, this is a guy who's I mean, 926 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 1: if you include today, he's thirty nine and eight in 927 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,760 Speaker 1: the regular season since taken over as quarterback of the Chiefs. 928 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't lose bet with this guy unless 929 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,800 Speaker 1: you bet him in the Super Bowl. I mean, I 930 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: think his total record, I mean since he became the starter, 931 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: I think good. We're neglecting to mention how good Andy 932 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: Reid is in week one and coming off of by 933 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 1: so I do think the one trend that you know 934 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 1: continues to cover is the loser. 935 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 3: The Super Bowl was four. 936 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 1: I mean, if you clue today that they're four and 937 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 1: eighteen in the last twenty openers in the following season. 938 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 1: So if you can, if you just think about next 939 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: year and you want to bet week one, just figure 940 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: out who's the loser of the Super Bowl. 941 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 3: And just fade him. 942 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: Because the Browns even covered this they I think they 943 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: covered the closing line at four and a half as well. 944 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 5: There you go, we're hot, reading all the way to 945 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 5: next season. We've already got you one win for Week 946 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 5: one next year. That's how ready we are. But speaking 947 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 5: of quarterbacks, that I bet on that did not come 948 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 5: through Aaron Rodgers not his finest day. Aaron Rodgers finished 949 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,440 Speaker 5: the game on the sidelines watching Jordan Love. So at 950 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 5: least the Packers are getting ready for their transition. This 951 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 5: is not exactly the start of the last dance that 952 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 5: I think Green Bay fans were hoping for. New Orleans 953 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 5: destroyed green Bay thirty eight to three, obviously covering the spread, 954 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 5: getting the plus one sixty money line. 955 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 4: This game didn't, you know, hit the under because the 956 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 4: Packers just never showed up on offense. They really even 957 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 4: had the ball. 958 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers got the ball back with a minute seven 959 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 5: left in the first half. Green Bay had two possessions 960 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 5: in the entire game. At that point, the Saints were 961 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 5: just running the ball, controlling the clock, doing the exact 962 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,360 Speaker 5: thing that we know has happened with Green Bay in 963 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 5: the past. Last year, green Bay lost thirty eight to 964 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,919 Speaker 5: ten to Tampa in the regular season. The year before, 965 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 5: they lost thirty seven to eight to San Francisco. They 966 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,800 Speaker 5: seem to have one of these games where the script 967 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,239 Speaker 5: doesn't work out right, they give up a lot of 968 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 5: runs and it just never happens and it just gets 969 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 5: completely out of hand. So is this another of those 970 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 5: games or is this that Packers regression we've been waiting for. 971 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 3: I think it was one of those games. I think 972 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:52,479 Speaker 3: it was a little both. 973 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I've read an interesting stat after the game, 974 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: and I didn't realize it before, but apparently the Packers 975 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: have they really have struggled in the state of Florida. 976 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: I mean, since Aaron Rodgers became a starting quarterback in 977 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, he has a career record of 978 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: three and four. He has just a seventy eight point 979 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: one passer rating inside of the Sunshine State. We all 980 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: remember that Buccaneers game from last year where they got 981 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: completely dominated, and this was very reminiscent of that. But 982 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: I think some of it has to come with I mean, 983 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: this team didn't have It felt like they didn't have 984 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: a lot of continuity. You got two new starters on 985 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 1: the offensive line, Obviously David Bactiari he tore his achilles 986 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 1: last year. Obviously, you lose Corey Lensley, and you got 987 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: two rookies on the offensive line against a solid defensive 988 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 1: line with Cameron Jordan, and they just put pressure on 989 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers all day. And you know, there was a 990 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: I think the drive coming out of halftime, and I 991 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 1: think the Packers are down seventeen to three and they 992 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: have a chance to cut it to a one possession game, 993 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers is so focused on the pressure that 994 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: he steps up to make the throw and he makes 995 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: a jump throw and it's off target. 996 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 3: I mean Davante Adams was wide open, he. 997 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 1: Catches that he's probably going into the end zone, he's 998 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: getting the first down, and instead it's an interception, and 999 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: from there on, the game's over. But I think I 1000 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,839 Speaker 1: think the I mean the Packers really haven't addressed their 1001 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 1: issues on the defensive line. 1002 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 3: I mean, it just felt like the Saints ran the 1003 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 3: ball over all over them. 1004 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean they had one hundred and seventy one rushing 1005 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,399 Speaker 1: yards four point four yards per brush, and I mean 1006 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: from then on it it was just the biggest thing 1007 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 1: I take away from this is that the Saints are 1008 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: going to challenge that division. And I look at Jameis 1009 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,439 Speaker 1: Winston almost similar to Brett Farv. I mean, I don't 1010 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 1: know if everybody remembers Brett come on, hear me out, 1011 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 1: hear me out, hear me out, hear me out, hear 1012 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 1: me out. I don't know if everybody remembers Brett Favre 1013 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,840 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, but he didn't have his act together. And 1014 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 1: I think that's the same thing that we saw with 1015 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston and Tampa Bay. James Winston, he got his 1016 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 1: Lasik surgery, he was playing under a coach. They probably 1017 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 1: didn't really fit him with the risk it no biscuit style, 1018 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,520 Speaker 1: and I think he is a coach and Sean Payton 1019 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:05,320 Speaker 1: who could. 1020 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 3: Really change his career. I mean, I know they. 1021 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: Had the ball, they played a ball dominant style today, 1022 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 1: but I think he's a guy who really could totally 1023 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 1: revitalize his career. And I'm interested in seeing some of 1024 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 1: those numbers on Jamis winning Comeback Player of the Year. 1025 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: I know Dak is the favorite, but I think he 1026 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 1: might have a shot. 1027 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 5: Well what about MVP, because I saw Jamis is up 1028 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 5: to twenty five to one at bet MGM. Are you 1029 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 5: willing to take the long shot before the odds drop 1030 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 5: further on Jamis Winston NFL MVP. 1031 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 3: I'm not willing to go that far. 1032 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: I'm not willing to go that far, but I do 1033 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: think this is very similar to you know, Brett fav 1034 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: leaving Atlanta and yeah, he could change his career. 1035 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 5: I see the scenario. I'm not going to overreact on 1036 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 5: the Saints here. I think that maybe that I'm underrating 1037 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 5: their floor a little bit, definitely, with their run game, 1038 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 5: the line, the defense, the coaching, They're going to be 1039 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 5: in all these games. I'm not quite ready to put 1040 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 5: them in the division yet. Jamis had five touchdowns, but 1041 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 5: he was fourteen of twenty fo one hundred and forty 1042 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 5: eight yards. So this is not like, oh, Jamis just 1043 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,799 Speaker 5: showed up and lit up the Packers defense. He just 1044 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 5: scored the touchdowns like that matters, But I'm not going 1045 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 5: to take too much away from that. Do not put 1046 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 5: your money in at twenty five to one. When Mvaca 1047 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 5: don't do it. That line is begging you to be like, 1048 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 5: oh no, I better get my money in before it 1049 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 5: drops even lower. It's a trap. Don't do it. Just 1050 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 5: stay away. I'm not going to overreact to the Packers here. 1051 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 5: This was This reminded me of those other two games 1052 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,880 Speaker 5: I remember watching those. Even though green Bay ended up 1053 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 5: getting run off the field, they were never quite as 1054 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 5: bad as the final score looked. And that's how I 1055 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 5: feel about this game. Green Bay drove right near the 1056 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 5: end of the half. I bet on Rogers and the 1057 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 5: Packers right as they got the ball back at one 1058 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 5: oh seven, they drove down the field and in a 1059 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 5: lot of games they get one more pass and punch 1060 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 5: it into the end zone, and this one they settled 1061 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 5: for a field goal seventeen to three, So I was 1062 00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 5: a missed opportunity. They come out right after half and 1063 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 5: they could drive right down the field and Aaron Rodgers 1064 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 5: throws a red zone interception, which has to be the 1065 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 5: first time he's done. 1066 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 4: That, like in years. 1067 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 5: Literally like this dude throws like five interceptions the entire season, 1068 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 5: and he threw that one, and then the very next 1069 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 5: possession through another one, so literally Rogers through like half 1070 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 5: of his season interceptions in back to back possessions today. 1071 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 5: So late in the game, even the Packers were still 1072 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,280 Speaker 5: kind of hanging around. They made a big defensive play, 1073 00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 5: and then Zadarius Smith got a big play and they 1074 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,760 Speaker 5: called a penalty for playing football. 1075 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 4: I guess like he. 1076 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 5: Did, like they would they should put that as like 1077 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 5: an instructional video of how to blitz the quarterback and 1078 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 5: tackle properly. And then they gave a fifteen hour penalty 1079 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 5: because it's what we do now in twenty twenty one. 1080 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 5: So I'm not worried too much about the Packers. This 1081 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,880 Speaker 5: is one of those games. It got away. They'll be fine. 1082 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 5: The division is awful, so Green Bay is gonna run 1083 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 5: away with the division. The Packers will be fine. This 1084 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 5: definitely hurts, you know, in the win standings as you're 1085 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:00,800 Speaker 5: trying to get a one. See you later on in 1086 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 5: the year. I lost matters, but I'm not too worried 1087 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 5: about them big picture. Let's hit just these last few 1088 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 5: games more quickly. To wrap up here, not a ton 1089 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 5: of interesting things here. The Broncos went to New York 1090 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 5: and took care of the Giants twenty seven to thirteen. 1091 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 5: Broncos covered and got the under there by a point 1092 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:20,920 Speaker 5: in a half, even as that one dropped. All week, 1093 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 5: we were both high on Denver. They seem like to 1094 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 5: have this. 1095 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 4: All the way. Did you feel good about what you 1096 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 4: saw from them? 1097 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 2: Oh? 1098 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:29,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're gonna be one of those those 1099 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: playoff teams who you can bet on again on against 1100 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: bad teams. But I don't think I think they're going 1101 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: to struggle against some of the better teams in this league. 1102 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 1: I think the Chargers are obviously better. I think Bridgewater 1103 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:48,319 Speaker 1: is just a perfectly capable, mediocre quarterback who he's not 1104 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 1: going to lose you the game, but he's not going 1105 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 1: to add that level of variance that you need in 1106 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 1: order to beat some of the elite teams. So I 1107 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: was kind of impressed with their victory, but I mean 1108 00:51:58,480 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 1: I kind of was. I mean, the second half was, 1109 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 1: but I mean the Giants were in this for about. 1110 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 4: A half, and yeah they were, but Denver lost a 1111 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 4: fumble in the red zone, they had a drop touchdown 1112 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 4: where they hit the receiver in the hands, and like, 1113 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 4: this could have gotten away pretty easily. So I think 1114 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,400 Speaker 4: that's just really why New York sort of looked like 1115 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 4: they hung around. 1116 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 5: I am worried about Jerry Judy. He's got that high 1117 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 5: ankle sprain. It looked rough while he was definitely in 1118 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 5: some pain, and he was lighting up this game. His 1119 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,279 Speaker 5: routes in this game, he was just putting in The 1120 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 5: Giants have good corners and he was putting those guys 1121 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 5: in jail just all over the field, So he would 1122 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 5: be a big loss. Denver was really starting to look 1123 00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 5: good with their weapons out there, so I agree. I 1124 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 5: think this is this is a high floor team that 1125 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 5: doesn't really have the ceiling. The Chargers have a much 1126 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 5: higher ceiling, without a doubt, and some of the other 1127 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 5: teams clearly do. But Denver's defense look good. Teddy's going 1128 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 5: to keep them in games. A couple other teams that 1129 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 5: fit that style a little bit. Miami and New England 1130 00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 5: our last regular afternoon game of the day. This is 1131 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 5: why I'm met. I had New England and Miami covered 1132 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 5: and got the win the plus one fifty five to 1133 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 5: the money line. They won it seventeen to sixteen. So 1134 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 5: what did you think about this one? Did you feel 1135 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 5: like Miami deserved the win or how did you process. 1136 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: The takeaway here, I just felt neck and neck the 1137 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: whole way, and I just kind of kept waiting for 1138 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,720 Speaker 1: somebody to make a play like Miami made the play. 1139 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: And obviously, I mean, the one thing that stands out 1140 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 1: to me for the day, if there's a theme, is 1141 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:33,919 Speaker 1: that rookie quarterbacks are bad. I mean, we all wanted 1142 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 1: to see Justin fields later, but for the most part, 1143 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, none of the rookie quarterbacks really were impressive. 1144 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 5: So yeah, both of us were very low on Miami. 1145 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 5: So it definitely stings a little bit to see Miami 1146 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 5: get this first division to win. 1147 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 4: But I really feel pretty good about what New England 1148 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 4: did here. 1149 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 5: New ay One had three hundred and ninety three yards 1150 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 5: to only two hundred and fifty nine for Miami. That 1151 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 5: eight more first downs, they ran eighteen more plays time 1152 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 5: and possession was thirty seven to twenty three in New 1153 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:04,960 Speaker 5: England's favor. 1154 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 4: That all stacks up to be what should be. 1155 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:11,400 Speaker 5: A comfortable when unfortunately New England had two fumbles, including 1156 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 5: late in the game Damien Harris had that killer fumble 1157 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 5: that broke my parlay. Otherwise they're in the red zone, 1158 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 5: they're at least going to get a field goal there 1159 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 5: and take the lead. Miami scored two touchdowns, and it 1160 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 5: was the first drive of each half. That worries me 1161 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 5: a little bit because it makes me feel like that's 1162 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 5: the scripted drive, that's the one they've been practicing those 1163 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,319 Speaker 5: plays all week, and then they got that. 1164 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 4: Good for them, But then what about the whole rest 1165 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 4: of the half? What happened there? 1166 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:41,240 Speaker 5: So I'm not ready to panic quite yet on New England, 1167 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 5: and I'm definitely not ready to believe too much in Miami. 1168 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 3: Here. 1169 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 5: You know, it was a game between two pretty average 1170 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,320 Speaker 5: teams and it came down to a couple of plays. 1171 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 5: This is the NFL. That's kind of how these games 1172 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 5: tend to go. You mentioned justin fields. We finally got 1173 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 5: to see a little bit of feels in the evening 1174 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,359 Speaker 5: the Bears and the Rams. To tell you, here's how 1175 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 5: this game started. The Chicago Bears get the opening kickoff, 1176 00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 5: a great kickoff return out almost out of the fifty. 1177 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:11,320 Speaker 5: A couple of plays later, Dan Montgomery cracks a long run. Suddenly, 1178 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 5: four plays in the game, justin fields coming out of 1179 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 5: the field. I did not expect that. I did not 1180 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,360 Speaker 5: think Chicago would even get him out there. Very much, 1181 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 5: takes a snap, makes a great pass, third and a one. 1182 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 5: We're down near like inside the ten. And what does 1183 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,919 Speaker 5: Chicago do. They take justin fields out, They put Andy 1184 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 5: Dalton in in the mix up, they get a false start, 1185 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,839 Speaker 5: then they burn a time out, and then the very 1186 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 5: next play, Andy Dalton throws a pick in the end zone. 1187 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 5: The Rams get the ball back three plays later, eighty 1188 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 5: yards touchdown Van Jefferson. 1189 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:42,360 Speaker 4: Game over for me. 1190 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 5: Like that, that's the Bears in a nutshell is you 1191 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 5: put fields on the field, he makes the pass, he 1192 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 5: looks great. It's third and a one in the red zone. 1193 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,839 Speaker 5: This is when you want him on the field. This 1194 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 5: is exactly why you want your dual threat quarterback out 1195 00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 5: there to be able to make a play, excite your franchise. 1196 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,440 Speaker 5: And then they went right back to the same stupid 1197 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 5: Dalton thing. And here we are thirty four or fourteen, 1198 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 5: and we just try to set through another boring game 1199 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:09,760 Speaker 5: while we waited for Chicago to lose. 1200 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 3: I mean, as a better I like boring. 1201 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: And I think it's so funny because I actually had 1202 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 1: to go to the bathroom to start the game. 1203 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 3: So when I came out of the bathroom, the first. 1204 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 1: Person I see is Justin Field, and I'm scared to death. 1205 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 1: I'm like, I did not bet on this game to 1206 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 1: go against Justin Fields. 1207 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 3: I bet on this game. 1208 00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:31,240 Speaker 1: I lay eight with the Rams, thinking that Andy Dalton's 1209 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: a statue and he's not gonna be able to do 1210 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 1: anything with this Rams defense. 1211 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 3: And he actually impressed me. 1212 00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean, for I mean, when you look at Andy Dalton, 1213 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: he wasn't as bad as I thought he would be. 1214 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 1: I mean when you look at his EPA per play 1215 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 1: early past they had a positive ePAT point four to eight. 1216 00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he had a success rate of seventy percent 1217 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 1: on early pass passing downs. So it's just I came 1218 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 1: away from this game realizing that the defensive losses that 1219 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:05,879 Speaker 1: the Rams had and free agency, it's really gonna hurt them. 1220 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:09,479 Speaker 1: And I think the Rams the defense that we saw 1221 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,399 Speaker 1: last year with Brandon Staley, this. 1222 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 3: Is not the same defense at all. I mean, because. 1223 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 1: The Bears actually moved the ball down the field pretty often, 1224 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 1: it's just they kept stalling out or they have the interception. 1225 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: They had multiple interceptions, and in the Rams territory they 1226 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: struggled on fourth down they were all for four. But 1227 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 1: besides that, I mean this game was basically decided by 1228 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 1: the Rams exposive plays, and they had a good four 1229 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,560 Speaker 1: of them that went for touchdowns or put them in 1230 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: Chicago territory. So I think this is a Rams team 1231 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,360 Speaker 1: that's gonna have to win with offense. I think I'm 1232 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 1: gonna be playing a lot of their overs. I think 1233 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,960 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford he played well, but he wasn't quite comfortable 1234 00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: with the system. I mean, when you look through their 1235 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: first half, it felt like they barely had the ball 1236 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,320 Speaker 1: for certain points, and there were certain things that he 1237 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: struggled with. I know he had he had he had 1238 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: the boot leg, and this is not something that he's 1239 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 1: He's typically ran in Detroit, but he would run the 1240 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 1: boot leg, but he wouldn't he wouldn't run like, he 1241 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't fake the run enough to where you know, you 1242 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: still had the defensive players dropping in coverage. So I 1243 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get a little bit, he's gonna get 1244 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 1: more acquainted. I think gets more acquainted with Sean mcvay's system. 1245 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 1: I think this offense is even going to be even better. 1246 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 1: But I have no trust in his defense. I'm gonna 1247 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 1: be honest with you. 1248 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, the defense was a bit worriso. That was my 1249 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 5: only real takeaway from the game. I kind of mentally 1250 00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,560 Speaker 5: checked out after that early sequence. I was like, well, yeah, 1251 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 5: here we go. This is the Bears, this is the Rams. 1252 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 5: Exactly what I knew was going to happen in this game. 1253 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 5: And the final score looked like that's what happened. But 1254 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 5: the final score didn't really quite reflect, you know, how 1255 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 5: close the game was. The Bears kept moving the ball 1256 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:58,320 Speaker 5: in the plus territory. The Rams defense not impressive, especially 1257 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 5: the Bears were running all over them a lot. And yeah, 1258 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 5: I definitely didn't come away super confident in what the 1259 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:05,120 Speaker 5: Rams did. 1260 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 4: But the entire NFCU West does want to know. 1261 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 5: We knew that division was going to be really tough, 1262 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 5: and it's looking like any loss you take is losing 1263 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,920 Speaker 5: ground and the division to somebody else that week, probably 1264 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 5: multiple somebody else's, So it's going to be tough. Stafford 1265 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 5: look good with some of those big plays, but it 1266 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,080 Speaker 5: does seem like it will take some time with them. 1267 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 5: Let's switch gears and talk about Monday Night Football. Tonight, 1268 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 5: Monday Night Football, the Baltimore Ravens travel to Las Vegas. 1269 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 4: We get real. 1270 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 5: NFL football with fans in Las Vegas for the first 1271 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 5: time ever where the Raiders will host. The Ravens are 1272 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 5: three and a half point favorites right now. The Raiders 1273 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:48,440 Speaker 5: are plus one sixty five on the money line at 1274 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 5: bet MGM, and we're at fifty point five on the total. 1275 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:55,000 Speaker 5: So what are you thinking as we go into this 1276 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 5: Monday night game, especially with what Baltimore has looked like 1277 00:59:58,400 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 5: heading into the new season. 1278 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:05,680 Speaker 1: I think, you know, I'm playing in this contest right 1279 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:10,200 Speaker 1: and one of the football like consensus picks for the Raiders, 1280 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:14,600 Speaker 1: and obviously the contest takes place in Las Vegas, and 1281 01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 1: it made me think, you know, why is it this 1282 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,880 Speaker 1: many people in the Raiders? And I think a lot 1283 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 1: of it has to do with the injuries and running 1284 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 1: back to the Ravens have. I mean, I think people 1285 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 1: are tending to overrate those and obviously you struggle, you 1286 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: lose Marcus Peters, but I think the Ravens are underrated 1287 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 1: in this spot, and I think this is a spot 1288 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: where we could see the Ravens go out there and 1289 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 1: absolutely both race this team. Now, obviously I think you're 1290 01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:47,960 Speaker 1: going to get a lot of people hype over the 1291 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 1: Raiders having their first home game in Vegas. But we've 1292 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 1: already seen that home full advantage doesn't mean so much 1293 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 1: in the NFL anymore. So I'm leaning towards the Ravens 1294 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: in this matchup. I'm gonna do a little bit more research, 1295 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 1: you know, look at the market tomorrow, but I think 1296 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 1: I might find myself on Baltimore. 1297 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:09,200 Speaker 5: I'm really torn on this game because I'm always in 1298 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 5: on Baltimore. 1299 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 4: I love this version of the team. I love John Harbaugh. 1300 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 5: They're always tough on defense, they're always great on special teams. 1301 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:17,440 Speaker 4: They run the ball. 1302 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,479 Speaker 5: It is a team that when they face the team 1303 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:22,440 Speaker 5: that's not good, which I don't think the Raiders are 1304 01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 5: very good. Usually they just boat race those kind of 1305 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 5: teams like then run off the court or run off 1306 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 5: the field, and we've seen that, especially in Week one. 1307 01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 5: Here's the last four seasons Baltimore Week one last year, 1308 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,840 Speaker 5: thirty eight to six win in Week one year before, 1309 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 5: fifty nine to ten before that, forty seven to three 1310 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,439 Speaker 5: before that, twenty to zero in four seasons the last 1311 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,120 Speaker 5: four years in a row. That's one hundred and sixty 1312 01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 5: four points for the Ravens nineteen total for four opponents 1313 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 5: as an average score of forty one to five. So 1314 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 5: that's terrifying because this Baltimore team comes out ready to go. 1315 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:02,440 Speaker 5: But I just don't know if that's what the Ravens 1316 01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 5: are this year. I'm very worried about this. We talked 1317 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 5: with Sun Friday. I'm worried about the running backs. You know, 1318 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 5: you want the Ravens. If they're going to play Ravens ball, 1319 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 5: they come and run it down their throat. And I 1320 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 5: don't even know who's running it down anyone's throat. Who 1321 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 5: who is on the team running the ball besides Lamar Jackson, 1322 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 5: we don't really know he's gonna play. Marcus Peters is 1323 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:27,880 Speaker 5: a big loss. Derek Carr is pretty good, Like Derek 1324 01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 5: Carr is not awesome, but he's got he's solid, he's 1325 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 5: gonna make some throws. He's good enough to hurt a 1326 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:39,240 Speaker 5: secondary that is suddenly weak unexpectedly. And here's my problem. 1327 01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 5: I would be willing to say that maybe the Raiders, 1328 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,600 Speaker 5: you know, take an early lead, play to the crowd 1329 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,200 Speaker 5: and then but the Ravens are just the better team 1330 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 5: and they come back. But what's the one thing that 1331 01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 5: we're afraid of the Ravens doing. It's coming back So 1332 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 5: if I think that the Raiders are going to come 1333 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,920 Speaker 5: out and you know, maybe play the first quarter or 1334 01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 5: the first half and just nibble a little bit at that. 1335 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:05,920 Speaker 5: If the Raiders take the lead, I don't like the 1336 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 5: Ravens playing from behind. I don't trust them. 1337 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 3: We saw Lamar Jackson last year on Monday Night Football. 1338 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:13,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what he was. 1339 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 1: Doing in the locker room, the book game, the hoop game. Yeah, 1340 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,720 Speaker 1: he came back from taking a pool. He comes in 1341 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 1: on fourth down and like he's straight cold, gets the 1342 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: completion and leads them to a win. So to say 1343 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 1: he's never come back from a game. Look, he's facing 1344 01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:36,080 Speaker 1: a bad Raiders defense. I mean this is not This 1345 01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,400 Speaker 1: is not Kansas City where you need to go out 1346 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 1: there and you have to score a minimum of thirty 1347 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 1: five points in order to win. I mean that's what 1348 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 1: Cleveland needed today. They scored twenty nine points. They needed 1349 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:49,520 Speaker 1: thirty five points in order to win in that game. 1350 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean this is not that. This is a Raiders 1351 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:57,080 Speaker 1: team that is not good defensively. So, like you said, 1352 01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,680 Speaker 1: these are the teams that Baltimore beats up on. 1353 01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I do think what do you think about the 1354 01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 5: over under here? So at fifty and a half, here's 1355 01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:09,040 Speaker 5: what I'm thinking on that is. To me, if I'm 1356 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 5: playing the Ravens, I like the over. If I'm playing 1357 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 5: the Raiders, I like the under because I think it's 1358 01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 5: a bet on Baltimore's offense. If we think the offense 1359 01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 5: is fine and they're gonna run the ball and they're 1360 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:22,480 Speaker 5: gonna show up and do what they do, then the 1361 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:24,600 Speaker 5: Raves are gonna score a bunch of points. They're gonna cover, 1362 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 5: and we're gonna hit the over because the Raiders will 1363 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 5: get some backdoor points. You know, they'll score Derek Carr 1364 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 5: will score some points. So if we like the Ravens, 1365 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 5: I think we like the over. I'm leaning toward the 1366 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 5: Raiders the plus one sixty five just to give them 1367 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,440 Speaker 5: a shot at the money line. You know, that's an 1368 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 5: under forty percent implied to odds of getting the victory. 1369 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,439 Speaker 5: We've seen all the underdogs get to win this week. 1370 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,920 Speaker 5: They're at home home teams on Monday night we know 1371 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 5: historically are awesome. I might think about playing it with 1372 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 5: the under as well, because if I'm playing the Raiders, 1373 01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 5: I'm playing the Ravens not to really show up offensively, 1374 01:04:57,640 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 5: not to get into their rhythm, you know, and score 1375 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:01,920 Speaker 5: some points. So what do you think about the pairing 1376 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 5: on either side of those? 1377 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 1: I could see under just because I mean, the Ravens 1378 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 1: are a team that's like the run. They run the ball, 1379 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 1: that's what they do. 1380 01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 3: But I just. 1381 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 1: I don't I don't necessarily like the pairing because I 1382 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 1: could see the Ravens winning this game twenty seven twenty 1383 01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 1: I see, I mean I could see them winning this game. 1384 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:33,040 Speaker 3: That is down to Actually, I don't know that's right though. 1385 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 4: I said that the Ravens win that they hit the 1386 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 4: over so so you're right that that would work out, 1387 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,439 Speaker 4: you know it would It would bust my pairing that way. 1388 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think the pairing is. 1389 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,160 Speaker 1: I think that's what I'm struggling with, actually, just because 1390 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 1: the Ravens they run the ball so much. 1391 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, for me, it's I'm playing every game. I picked 1392 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 5: the Raiders on this one in my column already, So 1393 01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 5: I think that if I'm going to play the Raiders, 1394 01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 5: what we saw today is. 1395 01:05:57,720 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 4: Where you played the underdog. 1396 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:01,720 Speaker 5: You should all nibble and to put it a little 1397 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 5: bit on the money line as well, All but two 1398 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 5: of the underdogs that covered today a one outright, So 1399 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 5: if you're gonna think about playing the Raiders one sixty five, 1400 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 5: I think it's worth a play giving them a shot here, 1401 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 5: and especially too, I think there's a good chance with 1402 01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,800 Speaker 5: the home crowd that the Raiders do take an early lead. 1403 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,440 Speaker 5: So if you like what you're seeing from the Ravens 1404 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 5: and the Raiders take a lead and you've got the 1405 01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 5: money line, you've got a great head spot and you 1406 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 5: might be able to lock in a win either way. 1407 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 5: So I think that's my play. Do you have a 1408 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 5: play that you're locking in for this game at all? 1409 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:36,800 Speaker 3: When I look at the Raiders, I'm actually looking ahead 1410 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:37,360 Speaker 3: of this game. 1411 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 1: So we do a segment called the hot read, which 1412 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 1: is next, and I have a great play. 1413 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:46,400 Speaker 3: On the Raiders next week if we want to get 1414 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:46,840 Speaker 3: into that now. 1415 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 1: But I think as far as this game, I think 1416 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 1: if I had to play anything, I would play the 1417 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 1: Ravens just because I feel like they're being a little 1418 01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 1: bit undervalue. I think the four points is a little 1419 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 1: low just from the baseline that I have these teams 1420 01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 1: that coming in of the year. I mean, obviously you 1421 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 1: want to downgrade the Ravens new to the running back 1422 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 1: losses and Marcus Peters. But I think Hardball is a 1423 01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:10,919 Speaker 1: great coach and I think you can never understate that 1424 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,720 Speaker 1: Lamar is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league. 1425 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 1: And this Ravens team, they've proven that they had a 1426 01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 1: lot of death. I mean, they did lose some pieces 1427 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,400 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. Obviously they traded, they got rid 1428 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 1: of Orlando Brown. But I think that's what I would 1429 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 1: lean towards. 1430 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:24,360 Speaker 4: Well, let's do it. 1431 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 5: Let's get into our hot read as we wrap up today. 1432 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,360 Speaker 5: So each week, on Sunday night Monday morning for you, 1433 01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,440 Speaker 5: we are going to finish out our podcast by taking 1434 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:36,320 Speaker 5: a look ahead at the following week's lines. They're already 1435 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:38,560 Speaker 5: out there. You can already bet these lines, and some 1436 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,320 Speaker 5: of them you want to grab right away. We saw 1437 01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 5: that today. If you grab the forty nine ers early 1438 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 5: in the week, you covered. If you've waited until Sunday, 1439 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:48,360 Speaker 5: you didn't cover. Same thing with the Jets. If you 1440 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 5: got them early, you still got the cover. If you didn't, 1441 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 5: you were crying at your dollars lost on Sunday evening. 1442 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,920 Speaker 5: So we're gonna do the hot read. We're going to 1443 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,720 Speaker 5: look ahead at the following week's lines. So we're looking 1444 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 5: at Week two lines today, I reach gonna pick two 1445 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,080 Speaker 5: that here's what we think, we like the side, and 1446 01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 5: we want to lock in at a key number before 1447 01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:09,320 Speaker 5: we think that this line maybe is gonna shift the 1448 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:11,280 Speaker 5: wrong direction and cost some value like you did with 1449 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 5: San Francisco and New York. So I know that you're 1450 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 5: thinking already about the Raiders in the hot read. 1451 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 4: So tell me about your hot read on the Raiders 1452 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 4: for Week two. 1453 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:19,920 Speaker 3: Okay. 1454 01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:23,280 Speaker 1: I like the Stillers minus six. The Raiders are playing 1455 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: a short week. They got to play on Monday night. 1456 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:29,720 Speaker 1: They're gonna have this emotional opening to their stadium, and 1457 01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:32,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna have stadium. They're gonna have fans there for 1458 01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:34,760 Speaker 1: the first time. Guess where they have to play next week? 1459 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,120 Speaker 1: They got to play Pittsburgh at nine am West Coast 1460 01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:42,679 Speaker 1: game one o'clock East Eastern time. The Stillers are laying six. 1461 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:45,080 Speaker 1: I think the Stillers go out there and completely take 1462 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:47,719 Speaker 1: them into the deep waters and drown them. We've seen 1463 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 1: the Stillers. They have a great defense. I think the 1464 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,720 Speaker 1: Stillers actually dominate that game. I want to get it 1465 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:56,080 Speaker 1: before it gets to seven, and especially if they lose 1466 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 1: that game to the Ravens. I mean, this line is 1467 01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 1: gonna go up, So give me the stillers. I mean, 1468 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:01,880 Speaker 1: that's the first one in my mind. I just think 1469 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,320 Speaker 1: it's a really bad spot. And then if you look 1470 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,719 Speaker 1: at how they perform previously coming off Monday night games, 1471 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this has just been it's been a bad 1472 01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:12,679 Speaker 1: situation for them to play that on a short week week. 1473 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,479 Speaker 1: Ninth Week one, they played the Broncos one twenty four 1474 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:18,080 Speaker 1: to sixteen. Next week they lost to the Chiefs twenty 1475 01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: eight to ten twenty eighteen. Raiders versus Ran lost thirty 1476 01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 1: three thirteen. Next week, they come back as favorites and 1477 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: lose to the Broncos twenty to nineteen. So I think 1478 01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 1: this is a spot that I like faith. 1479 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,679 Speaker 5: So that's interesting because I am also going to fade 1480 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 5: a Monday night team next week, but I'm fading the 1481 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:40,960 Speaker 5: other Monday night team. Baltimore is on our televisions again. 1482 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:44,120 Speaker 5: Baltimore will be on Sunday Night Football next week hosting 1483 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:47,360 Speaker 5: the Kansas City Chiefs. And right now, the Chiefs are 1484 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:50,080 Speaker 5: at minus two and a half on the road, and 1485 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:52,400 Speaker 5: I want that two and a half. Give me Patrick 1486 01:09:52,439 --> 01:09:55,320 Speaker 5: Mahomes at two and a half against pretty much anyone, 1487 01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 5: but definitely give me Pat Mahomes against the Ravens, and 1488 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 5: I need to make some money on this game, because 1489 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,759 Speaker 5: I don't know how many two, three times in a row. Now, 1490 01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 5: every time that Kansas City plays Baltimore, I get excited 1491 01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 5: because I'm like, Hey, if you were going to build 1492 01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 5: a team to beat Kansas City, wouldn't you build the 1493 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,120 Speaker 5: Baltimore Ravens. Wouldn't you build a great secondary, wouldn't you 1494 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,600 Speaker 5: have a great run game? Control the clock? And I 1495 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 5: get all excited and I bet the Ravens and it 1496 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 5: looks good for like a quarter and then wink, Martindale 1497 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:29,800 Speaker 5: just keeps on blitzing because the only thing Baltimore knows 1498 01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:31,800 Speaker 5: how to do. They blitz, and they blitz and they blitz, 1499 01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 5: and guess what, Patrick Mahomes is pretty good against the 1500 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:39,519 Speaker 5: blitz and Mahomes lights up the defense. And we already 1501 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:41,400 Speaker 5: know the run game is not going to be as strong. 1502 01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 5: We already know the corners aren't as strong. At two 1503 01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 5: and a half, I'm grabbing that now because I think 1504 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,400 Speaker 5: the Ravens might lose tonight, and now you're definitely going 1505 01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 5: to get that to three, three and a half, maybe 1506 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,719 Speaker 5: even higher, even if they don't lose, even. 1507 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 4: If they look pretty good. 1508 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 5: We already expect them to look at against the Raiders 1509 01:10:58,479 --> 01:10:59,920 Speaker 5: and money I think is going to come in on 1510 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 5: the Chiefs and move that. I want to grab that 1511 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 5: while I'm getting Pat Mahomes under a field goal in 1512 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,800 Speaker 5: a regular season game, give it to me every time. 1513 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,439 Speaker 5: I don't care who you're playing, definitely against the Ravens. 1514 01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 1: I really liked that when I think it's an interesting 1515 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:16,800 Speaker 1: thought because I mean, the Browns basically played the perfect game, 1516 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:19,519 Speaker 1: and we spoke earlier about how they ran all over 1517 01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:23,080 Speaker 1: the Chiefs and they dominated and they were able to 1518 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,000 Speaker 1: pass the ball, and I think that's noting that the 1519 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,559 Speaker 1: Ravens aren't going to do. What do you think about 1520 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:31,040 Speaker 1: props on the Ravens to miss the playoffs, given the 1521 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 1: statistics and the history of teams GO zero and two 1522 01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:35,839 Speaker 1: and how they struggle to make the playoffs. 1523 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 3: What are your thoughts on that? 1524 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:41,719 Speaker 5: That is interesting? Yeah, I mean I come it literally. 1525 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:44,639 Speaker 5: You know, last week I was feeling great about the Ravens. 1526 01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 5: I have the Ravens as the AFC one seed and 1527 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 5: a possible super Bowl team, and we knew that this 1528 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,680 Speaker 5: opening stretch could be tricky you know, Kansas City is 1529 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:56,080 Speaker 5: going to be a tough matchup for them, but Pittsburgh 1530 01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 5: is looking good. That's a little bit tougher than I 1531 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 5: expect in the division, and Cleveland certainly looks good. The 1532 01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 5: AFC is gonna be tough. I don't know if I'm 1533 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,600 Speaker 5: ready yet to say that Baltimore would miss the playoffs. 1534 01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:08,759 Speaker 5: I feel like it's still a pretty high floor team, 1535 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 5: especially with the defense, the special teams. John Harbaugh just like, 1536 01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,559 Speaker 5: there's so much there that I trust, that have grown 1537 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:18,000 Speaker 5: to trust. Like this is a team that blows out 1538 01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:21,240 Speaker 5: the bad opponents. But it's certainly a big hole they 1539 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 5: if they do lose Monday night and then they lose again, 1540 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 5: you know, it's a tough spot for them. 1541 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:27,680 Speaker 4: I don't hate it. 1542 01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 5: I never would have thought it until you asked, but 1543 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:32,680 Speaker 5: you're making me think about it. I might have to 1544 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,080 Speaker 5: take a look and see what the line comes up 1545 01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 5: as certainly after the Chiefs game, not before, because that's 1546 01:12:38,360 --> 01:12:40,519 Speaker 5: kind of the point is seeing what happens with an 1547 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,760 Speaker 5: zero to two team. It does seem like a pivotal spot. 1548 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:45,640 Speaker 5: It seems like a team that we will probably have 1549 01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:47,680 Speaker 5: to come back to for our next hot read if 1550 01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:50,439 Speaker 5: they do lose that game and see, you know, if 1551 01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 5: it's time to go in on the Ravens while things 1552 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,880 Speaker 5: are cheap, or maybe time to get out. I'm gonna 1553 01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 5: do my other hot read because it's a team that 1554 01:12:57,960 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 5: I'm going to go in on, and it's the other 1555 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:03,160 Speaker 5: night game next week. I'm going to Monday night football 1556 01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,679 Speaker 5: and I'm grabbing the green Bay Packers. They're home against 1557 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,839 Speaker 5: the Detroit Lions right now. Is that ten and a half, 1558 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:13,040 Speaker 5: and I think that this line should have gotten in 1559 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 5: My might still get to thirteen fourteen. I wouldn't be 1560 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:19,120 Speaker 5: shocked if it gets above fourteen. The Lions were getting 1561 01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 5: murdered today until that final six minutes, and we know 1562 01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 5: the Packers are fine. The Packers are going to light 1563 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,840 Speaker 5: up Detroit. That secondary is terrible. And if Jimmy Garoppolo 1564 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,080 Speaker 5: and Trey Lance are letting you up, I'm pretty sure 1565 01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:33,559 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers will be just fine. 1566 01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 4: Thank you. 1567 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 5: So green Bay always crushes Detroit. It's a Monday night. 1568 01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,080 Speaker 5: The Packers are going to be focused because they just 1569 01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 5: got embarrassed. They're going to come out in absolutely rule Detroit. 1570 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:47,080 Speaker 5: I want it at ten and a half. I wanted 1571 01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,600 Speaker 5: at any other number before I start to lose some value. 1572 01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 5: I guarantee you that line is getting bet up this week, 1573 01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:54,000 Speaker 5: and I want to grab the line while I can. 1574 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that one. I do think the 1575 01:13:57,320 --> 01:14:00,400 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers bounce back. I mean, he didn't play 1576 01:14:00,400 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 1: in the preseason, so he didn't have the continuity that 1577 01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 1: he's used to. Obviously, they had two rookie starters on 1578 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 1: the road in Florida, ware he struggles. So I'm not 1579 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,439 Speaker 1: too mad at that. I'm gonna do my other hoigh read. 1580 01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 1: I mean, this is one of the games that we 1581 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 1: talked about earlier, and you know, we were really excited 1582 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:19,639 Speaker 1: about Los Angeles Charters Dallas Cowboys. I like the over 1583 01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:22,599 Speaker 1: fifty two. I think I mentioned this last week on 1584 01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:24,880 Speaker 1: the look Ahead lines. I gotta go back to the 1585 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 1: well again. I believe I mentioned I like the over 1586 01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:29,920 Speaker 1: fifty one and a half. Obviously it's moved at half 1587 01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:31,640 Speaker 1: a point, and I think it's going to continue to 1588 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:36,719 Speaker 1: move because my model makes this game fifty five. I mean, wow, Yeah, 1589 01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:41,280 Speaker 1: I think this is a good old fashioned shootout. I mean, 1590 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 1: we saw the Cowboys go out there and throw on 1591 01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:48,120 Speaker 1: early downs at will against mister Packers. I think they 1592 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:52,120 Speaker 1: keep that up here. I mean justin Herbert. Obviously, he 1593 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,360 Speaker 1: went fourteen and eighteen on third down against a better 1594 01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:58,280 Speaker 1: pass rush, and we'll see against the Dallas Cowboys for 1595 01:14:58,320 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 1: a lot of points. 1596 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:01,679 Speaker 3: It is gonna be a fun game. 1597 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 5: I love that one. I don't play totals very often. 1598 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,719 Speaker 5: I'm more of a sides guy, but I even earmarked 1599 01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 5: that one as a possibility on mine. It's just like, 1600 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 5: oh boy, this one's gonna see some points. Like it 1601 01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:15,880 Speaker 5: would not surprise me at all to just see like 1602 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,559 Speaker 5: thirty eight, thirty four or you know, forty one to 1603 01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:21,360 Speaker 5: thirty one or something like. We are going to see points. 1604 01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:24,800 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a fast game. Dallas plays fast, and 1605 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 5: Herbert and Dak Prescott, to me, we all agree on 1606 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:31,240 Speaker 5: who those top quarterbacks in the NFL are. Everyone knows 1607 01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 5: Mahomes and Rogers and Brady. Those guys are right there 1608 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,280 Speaker 5: in the next tier to me. And I'm excited to 1609 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,000 Speaker 5: watch that one, and I'm excited for some points. So 1610 01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 5: I like that one for sure. Make sure to grab 1611 01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 5: these lines because they are going to move. They're gonna, 1612 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:48,360 Speaker 5: you know, be increasing during the week. You're gonna miss 1613 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:50,800 Speaker 5: some of those key numbers. That's what the hot read 1614 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:51,160 Speaker 5: is for. 1615 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 4: We're gonna earn you some. 1616 01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 5: Money on Monday morning, while it will be the ones 1617 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:57,920 Speaker 5: moving the lines when your money comes in, and then 1618 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:00,640 Speaker 5: everyone else can be crying to their dollars lost when 1619 01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 5: they lose out later in the week. So that is 1620 01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:06,360 Speaker 5: going to wrap it up today at the Action Network podcast. 1621 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:10,000 Speaker 5: Make sure that you download the Action Network app. You 1622 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:12,400 Speaker 5: can find all of our picks there and our articles. 1623 01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:16,679 Speaker 5: Please rate, subscribe, and review the podcast Stocking in a Raybond. 1624 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 5: We'll be back on a Thursday with their NFL betting 1625 01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 5: guide in six pack preview for the week.
