I know everyone 53 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: in the chat wants to come after us because we 54 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: have so been all about the Panthers. And we got 55 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: fucking kicked in the dick, and then we got stomped, 56 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: and then we got our head smashed in, and then 57 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: someone reached deep deep down our throats and pulled our 58 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: stomach out and then squeezed the juice is on our 59 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: face and we melted. That's how disgusting it was. And 60 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't even as bad as what the Panthers did 61 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: on the field. 62 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: Shut up, shut up. 63 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 3: I felt like we were tired in the Panthers. 64 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: We believe the panthers bad luck with penalties and turnovers 65 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: could not continue. We believe the offensive line would be better, 66 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: receivers would be better, coaching would be better, Bryce Young 67 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: would be better. Simon, everything bad last season for the 68 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: Panthers was bad in this game. 69 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, when I have family members that I barely talk 70 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 4: to that barely even watch football, texting me, how the 71 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: hell did you like this Panthers team? I always like, 72 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 4: Jesus Christ, this is not where we want to go. 73 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 4: I've had a couple of fans reach out to US 74 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 4: NASA US. Why don't we simply every week bet against 75 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 4: the Panthers and see if that works, because clearly would. 76 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: Have worked last year, and it's off to a hot 77 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 2: start this year. 78 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 4: I say not to overreact too much to one game, 79 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 4: but I think, I mean, you both agree Bryce Young 80 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 4: might be out of this league in a year like 81 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 4: this guy doesn't really fit the part. 82 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: So I know you have a little bit of rant 83 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: about bry S Young here, Chad, but I'm. 84 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 4: With the fans. I don't care that next week. We 85 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 4: both think there's value on the line. I'm not betting them. 86 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 4: I'm not giving them out on the show. So go ahead, Chaed. 87 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: Well look right now, Carolina, I think is what's the lion. 88 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: It's five and a half at home. They're plus five 89 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: and a half at home against the Chargers. Obviously you 90 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: look at that number and you have to say to yourself, yeah, 91 00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: there's value on the Panthers. 92 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: We're not going to recommend that. We're not going to 93 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 3: say that. 94 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: No. 95 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: Last year, the Panthers averaged just four point one yards 96 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: per play. That's the worst mark for any team since 97 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: the Bengals in. 98 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: Two thousand and eight. 99 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: They had three point five yards per play today. Thank 100 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: you Evan for putting that in our chat here. Look, 101 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: we can go through the stats and believe all of 102 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: the things that I said are true about the Panthers. 103 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: Better coaching, better talent around Bryce Young, he's just awful. 104 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: Like that first look, first throw interception. And it's not 105 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: like there's no urgency. This is in when he's in 106 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: the pocket. You see guys in the pocket and they 107 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: have a sense that things are clapping collapsing around them. 108 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: They start to step up. They're sliding left, they're sliding right, 109 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: they look like the of trying to put themselves in 110 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: a position to make a play. He just stands there 111 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:11,119 Speaker 1: until it's almost completely collapsed on him. And because he's 112 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: so tiny, it's almost impossible for him to make the 113 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: right play because he's in a position where he's going 114 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: to make a bad throw because he can't see anything. 115 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 3: I know. 116 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: It's like, I'm not trying to make fun of the guy. No, 117 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: he's just he's terrible at this. 118 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 4: And yeah, it's the same reason like I talked about. 119 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 4: You know last year right had a second round great 120 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 4: in the guys, if you want to be a first 121 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 4: round pick, there's always one thing this guy does great, right, 122 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: better than everyone else? 123 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 2: C J. Stroud. 124 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 4: The two best things will see the shot is his 125 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 4: pocket pocket awareness and his accuracy deep down the field. 126 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 2: Brayshung coming out. He was just good at everything, right, 127 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: Wasn't that what they told us? Jad? 128 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 4: And it's like, okay, but what's he great at? And 129 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 4: when you watch this stuff, he's not great at anything. Right. 130 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 4: He doesn't have great pocket awareness, hasn't great move in 131 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 4: the in the pocket, he doesn't have great arm talent. Right, 132 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 4: there was guys open today that he was missing. 133 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 2: So yeah, I. 134 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 4: Got burned bad today on them for a decent amount 135 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: of money, and I just I don't care. We can 136 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 4: keep it moving because I don't want to waste any 137 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 4: more time on them. I'm just totally discussing what I 138 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 4: saw today, and I'm hoping tomorrow next week. You know, 139 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 4: it's a new team that was just a one off, right, 140 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 4: that's the hope, because we actually bet on their futures. 141 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: But right now, zero confidence and Bryce Shawan. 142 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 3: Here's the problem. And I like to wallow in my misery. 143 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: Like I felt so sick all day that about this 144 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: game and about this bet and how much we touted 145 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: this team, and like it just I'm in agony about it. 146 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: So I just want to I just want to get 147 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: it all out, like they made the New Orleans Saints, 148 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: who we genuinely believe are not good, right, and their 149 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: defensive line is older, their offensive line isn't as good. 150 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: Derek Carr first long pass, sixty yards touchdown. Derek Carr 151 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: looked like a world beater today against this team. Dennis 152 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: Allen didn't have to be a bad coach because he 153 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: didn't have to coach. 154 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: They were up thirty to three at halftime. 155 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: Like the Panthers did everything that the Panthers did the 156 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: previous year. The game was not out of hand in 157 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: the first half, and they had a really smartly designed 158 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: play where they pitched it out. I think it was 159 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders ran for a first down on a long 160 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: third down holding penalty comes back, they give the ball 161 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: back to the Saints they had I think they were 162 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: down twenty to nothing, So like not over right still 163 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: first half. If you believe in the team, we believe 164 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: in the coach. We think they've got some talent. It's 165 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: not over fumble on a reverse after they gain a 166 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: first down, Like every single time with this team, they're 167 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: just like none of them look like they know how 168 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 1: to play. It's like you go to Carolina and you're 169 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: in affected. You're infected with some kind of like panther virus. 170 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that just when it starts going bad though, 171 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: it just goes terrible. Right, They're just terrible. They don't 172 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: have any real leadership. That's probably another issue for this team. 173 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: Well, speaking of terrible, we were on the Giants today 174 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: at plus one and a half. We almost pulled it 175 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: out of the contest today and we're going to get 176 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: to sort of why we didn't and games that we 177 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: were going to put in, all of which were winners today, 178 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: which is another thing that's making even more sick. 179 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: When did Sam Darnold become Sam? I am the man? 180 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: Because he started ten for ten, like I think he 181 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 1: had two incompletions of the whole game and threw for 182 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: more than two hundred yards he had. He started ten 183 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: for ten with one hundred and thirty six yards in 184 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: a touchdown. They had an eleven play, ninety nine yard 185 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: drive that ended with a fourth. 186 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 3: Down time touchdown throat. That's what all world qbs do. 187 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: Did we see anything here that justified the confidence we 188 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: had in the Giants? Did get did we get taken? 189 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: Did we fool ourselves? Do we misread? 190 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: Like? Are we off for too? 191 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: On the teams that we were convinced might have some value? 192 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 4: I would say Daniel Jones definitely looked rusty. I thought 193 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 4: he would be rusty, but I thought overall they'd played better. 194 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, like you just nailed. 195 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold started the game temper ten and he was 196 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 4: on fire. And then he did eventually turn back into 197 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 4: a pumpkin. He threw a pick and he just like 198 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 4: the second half, they didn't do anything like they were 199 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 4: incredible in the first half. 200 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: Once they got to pick six off. 201 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones, it's like, all right, we don't need to 202 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 4: do a single thing now, we can just pack it 203 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 4: in because they knew that their defense was good enough 204 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 4: that they really needed to do much. 205 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 2: Right. 206 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 4: I think that was the most surprising part to me 207 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 4: is that, you know, Brian Flores had this defense play 208 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 4: amazing last year. I thought naturally they'd regress just because 209 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 4: they played so of obviously that's not great. Littin the test, right, 210 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 4: it's Daniel Jones and his first started for coming back 211 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 4: off a major injury, which we don't have talk. We'll 212 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: get to it, probably that Pittsburgh game. But like you 213 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 4: saw Kirk Cousins, right, he looked rusty. Like coming off 214 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 4: major injuries in your first start, you play rusty. 215 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: So yeah, I love the. 216 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: Under in this game, love the Giants, like I just 217 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 4: had a game scripted the other way. Honestly, I thought 218 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 4: that the Giants would be the ones playing well and 219 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 4: the Vikings would struggle. 220 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: And you know, when the game. 221 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: Started, I think the Vikings, you know, they got a 222 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 4: sack on Sam Darnold, then they got a fumble recovery, 223 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 4: didn't didn't score a touchdown, like kicked the field goal, 224 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 4: and it's just like in the back of mind, I'm 225 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 4: just thinking, yeah, like this is this is not a 226 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: good team, right, so. 227 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: Sucks. 228 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 4: Right we got caugh up there with the Giants, but 229 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 4: I'm not totally out on them. Still, it's just you know, 230 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 4: another team that's like, like you just said, we'd other 231 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 4: the other teams we talked about. I would have felt 232 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 4: way better having a lot of money on those quarterbacks 233 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 4: as a dog than I did at any time with 234 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,359 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones. Like once it started, it's always our realization 235 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 4: of just like this was not the spot to go 236 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 4: heavy on Daniel Jones and this team, right, It's like 237 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 4: why did we not wait and see? But still you 238 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 4: know that that is a tough one where it's like 239 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 4: we played the number and we thought we had a 240 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 4: good number. That's what you said, Like we said we 241 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 4: didn't switch it out because we thought we had a 242 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 4: good number. 243 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 2: It was never a good number. That was just a 244 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 2: bad bet. 245 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: Now, Daniel Jones was what twenty two or forty two 246 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: I think for less than two hundred yards average and 247 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: two picks right and averaged four point four yards per completion, 248 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: two picks, including the pick six and a pick six 249 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: that he threw in sort of inside the twenty I think, 250 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: and then inside his own twenty. And then he also 251 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: threw an interception in the Vikings end zone when the 252 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: Giants were driving that sort of just ended it. I 253 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: do think this rage is, you know, an interesting coaching 254 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: question which we had had a lot during the offseason 255 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: because da Ball. Brian Dable, the Giants coach, and Kevin O'Connell, 256 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: the Vikings coach, have been connected since they started as 257 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: head coaches a couple of years ago. They both were 258 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: brilliant in one score games their rookie coaching years. They 259 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: got to the playoffs, they played each other. Brian Daball 260 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: wins Coach of the Year. Brian Dable goes to Minnesota 261 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: beats Kevin O'Connell and the Vikings on the road in 262 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: the playffs with Daniel Jones. Last year, there's regression from 263 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: the Giants because Daniel Jones isn't playing. The Vikings lose 264 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: their quarterback too, and they regressed significantly less. Now, granted 265 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: they had justin Jefferson to me this year, This game 266 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a little bit about a coaching matchup. 267 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: Did Kevin O'Connell just completely out coach Brian Daball Or 268 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: did the Giants just have zero talent on their team, 269 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: especially in the defensive backfield. 270 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 4: You could say that, but it's also just you talked 271 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 4: about though Sam Donald came out hot. Man, It's just 272 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 4: I don't I'm not sure to read too much into 273 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 4: because it is week one. I said that to you, 274 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 4: though I told you the Giants have a horrible secondary. 275 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 4: It's not like the secondary of the Vikings is that 276 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 4: much better, right, and Brian floor has made it work. 277 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 4: So it's like, you know, I don't want to make 278 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 4: excuses for this Giants team, but they just they came 279 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 4: out flat. The Vikings did not like their offense was humming. 280 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: You just said it. 281 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 4: They went ninety nine yards. Like Sam Donald goes ninety 282 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 4: nine yards, you ain't winning your bet. 283 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 2: That's your dead. 284 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, like you said, you eat some humble pie 285 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 4: here and get back after. 286 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: But two games are not gonna rereacting. I'll tell you 287 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: this much. The books respect this Vikings team. 288 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 4: I saw a couple of lines open, you know them 289 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 4: plus six them plus five and a half at the 290 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 4: forty nine ers next week check. So definitely an interesting, 291 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 4: interesting team that could be a little bit of a 292 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 4: sleeper team. 293 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: Well, I want to talk about that in a minute. 294 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: So you said it about the Giants defensive back. 295 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 3: Just one thing. I was watching this game and. 296 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: The Giants had stopped the Vikings on third down, you know, 297 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: from the one or whatever, and you're thinking, all right, 298 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: the Vikings are gonna do the smart thing. 299 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 3: They're going to go for the field goal. 300 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: And then they line up to go for it, and 301 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: you see Justin Jefferson isolated against the Giants' top cornerback, who, 302 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: by the way, might be the one hundred and fiftieth 303 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: rated quarterback according to profol, Like, honest to god, he's 304 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: he's not even on their board. 305 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: And it was such a actually. 306 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: A good coverage there. It was just a good ball. 307 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, it was such an easy pitch and catch, 308 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: Like why would the Giants leave that guy against a 309 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: guy who was having one of an historic career. It 310 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: just said everything to me about yeah, that's a dead bet, 311 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: dead bet. I tried to keep my composure. I've tried 312 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: to keep my cool. My kid had a bunch of 313 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: buddies over and like I want I didn't want to 314 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: be the dad who's like freaking out about his bets 315 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: in front of my son, and one was buddies, So like, 316 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: I kept my cool the whole time. We had a 317 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: couple of TVs going. We had the Bears game going. 318 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about the Bears, so that could 319 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: occupy me. I will say when we got to the 320 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: end of the Colts game, I was getting a little 321 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: bit excited about it because this one was just a 322 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: fun sweat and it kind of played out exactly like 323 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: we thought it would play out. We had the Colts 324 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: plus two and a half in the contest. CJ was amazing. 325 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: He threw it for a first down on fourth down 326 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: from his knees in the first quarter. Had just miraculous 327 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: plays at one point, like he threw across the field 328 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: across his body on a third down, like but going 329 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: both ways. 330 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,239 Speaker 3: This was an amazing game, amazing game. 331 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 4: Amazing game, and nothing was breaking right for us in 332 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 4: any way. And so now we still got the cover, 333 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 4: which rarely works out for you when games just aren't 334 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 4: breaking away. 335 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: I mean we literally that says something though that says 336 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: something to me about both teams, which we're going. 337 00:16:59,320 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 3: To talk about. 338 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it says a lot about Anthony Richardson. Honestly, 339 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 4: like this kid, we all see it. The talent is 340 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 4: incredible and it is just so raw, Like it's so raw. 341 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: You know, he. 342 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 4: Lost that game, like he kept him in it, but 343 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 4: end of the day, he is the reason they lost. 344 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 4: Like Shane Styken call it an amazing game. Like there 345 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 4: was multiple times he had wide open guys and then 346 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 4: he didn't have open guys and he went for those 347 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 4: guys anyway and it worked out for him. 348 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 2: Like he really was just so up and down in 349 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: that game. But yeah, that. 350 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 4: Missing the open touchdown and throwing the pick right after 351 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: usually that's you know, a fourteen point at least ten 352 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 4: point swing in some ways, right, and they come down 353 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 4: And I love Dumiko Ryans. That's why they're a team 354 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 4: I was scared of coming to this year. He don't care, 355 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 4: like he knows the deal. He's not messing around, so 356 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 4: like you know, they're in fourth and goal. I mean, 357 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 4: I can't remember it might be five percent of the 358 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 4: time in my life I've ever seen coaches go for 359 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 4: it in that spot right, you kick the field goal, 360 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 4: you're up five. 361 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: You're talking about you're talking about the end of the game. 362 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: They're up the very one of the game thing, and 363 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: it's late in the fourth quarter. They get stopped on 364 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: fourth down and like on Thursday, Strowd, such a gamer. 365 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 1: They go for it, and we needed them to go 366 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: for it, like the Gambler's math. 367 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 3: Play that out. 368 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: It's twenty two to nothing, they kick the field goal, 369 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: it's twenty five nothing like we don't like the The 370 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: only option then for the Colts is to score a 371 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: touchdown because the field goal won't be enough and they 372 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: won't have enough time. But if they don't get the touchdown, 373 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: then they lose by five. And it just feels you 374 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: feel even sicker because you know you came within a 375 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: player or two, you know, versus twenty nine. 376 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 2: So it's funny your brand works. 377 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 4: There were on the other way where I wanted them 378 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 4: to go for that. I was like, they stopped it. 379 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: I did too. 380 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 4: All the momentum is all on the Colts and they 381 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 4: will win this game by a field goal. They'll drive 382 00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 4: the field, they'll kick a field goal here, they'll win this. 383 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 4: So I was happy they went I for it. I mean, 384 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 4: shame on me. They called the perfect play. Stephan Diggs 385 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 4: was going against air. He was wide open in that 386 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 4: corner for that touchdown like that. That's a great, great 387 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 4: play by a great player. So yeah, Houston, everything we 388 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: talked about coming to the season, they're they're living up 389 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 4: to it. 390 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 2: Right. 391 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 4: All the pieces they added, Joe Mix and Stefan Diggs, 392 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 4: they all showed up in a big way. We had 393 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 4: questions coming to hear about their defense. None was answered, right. 394 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 4: That was such a weird game where it's like, did they. 395 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 2: Do okay against the run? Sure? Do they have issues 396 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 2: still in the secondary? Yeah, clearly. I mean they couldn't 397 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 2: stop the deep ball. 398 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 4: So Houston, they're exciting, But I think I still think 399 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 4: there's a reason we had a little bit of doubt 400 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 4: of them coming to the year. But I think we 401 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 4: both agree, right, Yeah, they're they're the best in this 402 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 4: division and that was apparent today, right. They just they 403 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 4: looked like a more mature, more complete team, and their 404 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 4: coach's confidence in them is incredible. Like Damiko Rans we 405 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 4: already talked about. It's just I love those type of 406 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 4: things because that breed's confidence for that team going forward, 407 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 4: So huge, huge, huge divisional win for Houston and the Colts. 408 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 4: Now going next week to Green Bay, that's become a 409 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 4: must win game, like you can't start the year zero 410 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 4: and two for the Colts. 411 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, pretty wild that game. 412 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 4: How so many Domino pieces fell in that game to 413 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 4: set up the rest of the season. 414 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: Well, look, you said this about Daniel Jones, the same 415 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: as true for Bryce Young. It's the opposite for Anthony Richardson. 416 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: You never feel with Anthony Richardson like you're out of 417 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: the game the way you do with someone like Daniel 418 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: Jones or Bryce Young. And you mentioned he missed a 419 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: wide open touchdown, He had a throw to Oudoni Mitchell 420 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: that went over his head and then the pick. He 421 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: did the same thing to Mitchell later. 422 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 3: In the game. 423 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, and follows it up with a sixty yard bomb 424 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: in the double coverage that gets them back in the game. 425 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 1: And then he up running four on fourth down, carrying 426 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: guys into the goal line, backing in full on, backwards walk, 427 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: using the glutes, using the hammies. That stuff is paying off, 428 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: and he gets into the end zone and then they 429 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: kick the extra point. 430 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 3: They end up losing twenty nine to twenty seven. We 431 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 3: get the cover. 432 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: So I never like we're gonna want to continue to 433 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: bet Anthony Richardson and Shane Steichen because of the plays 434 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,959 Speaker 1: that he calls all season long, which is always the 435 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: more they lose, the more value we're going to think 436 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: there is on the Indianapolis Cults. 437 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 3: Here's the thing about CJ. Stroup. They needed him to 438 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 3: make a throw. 439 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: They had like a third down and eleven or something 440 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: just after the two minute warning. They convert that play, 441 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: they win the game. 442 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 3: They don't. 443 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: They got a punt, Indy's got an opportunity to run 444 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: to go down the field and kick a field goal. 445 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: He rose a dot that a guy catches, gets his 446 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: knee down. 447 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 4: Nico Collins ride one hundred and seventeen yards. Incredible game. 448 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 3: Dude, Like c J. Stroud is just different. 449 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: He's just different. He started the game eight for nine. 450 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 1: That changes the calculus on everything. 451 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 3: No wonder. The Texans are sixteen to one. 452 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: No wonder. I wanted to bet them in all my 453 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: Super Bowl matchups because he can. He can, he can 454 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: cover up any weaknesses that the defense has, I mean. 455 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 2: Especially for him. 456 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 4: That was a bad game by him, honestly, by even 457 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 4: his own standors, like they're taking threes, and he kept 458 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 4: saying that, like, we can't keep taking these threes again. 459 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 4: That's why I think Demiico Ryans into that game went 460 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 4: for that because he was just like, I'm not kicking 461 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 4: another field goal and the inside the red zone, we're 462 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 4: going for it here. 463 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: So look, also had two picks overturned right one one 464 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: was ruled in. 465 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 4: Again, that's what I kept thinking, we weren't going to 466 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 4: get a chat, like it just kept not going our way, 467 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 4: Like this guy picks it, incredible pick and it's like nope, 468 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 4: your heel actually just touched out, and it's like, oh 469 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 4: my god, I can't get. 470 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: Then another one, the guy picked him off in the 471 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: red zone and they called it back because they called 472 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: the penalty on them. We got So that's why we're 473 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: one and two. We got the Colts, right, dreadful with 474 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 1: the Panthers and the Giants. We're going to move on 475 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: in the next twenty four hours. We're going to start 476 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: getting excited about next week. 477 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, typical. 478 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 4: That was the only two games we got wrong on 479 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 4: the one pm slate, so that it was making. 480 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: Me sick watching these things. Yeah, we got two games remaining. 481 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,959 Speaker 1: We got the Lions minus three and a half. That 482 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: line's out to five, so we feel good about the 483 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: number Jets we got it. 484 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 4: That better worked out because that was the reason we 485 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 4: did not switch out the Giants, because we wanted to 486 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:29,479 Speaker 4: keep that three and a half right. 487 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: So what happened was this morning, Simon and I were 488 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: going over the slate and one of the games like 489 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: really the game that we had talked about that we 490 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: kept looking at and like, why aren't we talking more 491 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: about this game with Jags at three and a half. 492 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 1: So obviously we did bet that game. We didn't take 493 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: it out because we liked the Lions at three and 494 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: a half. The value was there and a lot of 495 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: the lines to change, like if we if we changed 496 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: up our picks, we would have had to take the 497 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: lines at four and a half, and we didn't want 498 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: to lose that because we liked it so much. So 499 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: it's tough, but the Jags, like, the Jags were so 500 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: much better and then Travis atn bundles the ball at 501 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: the two yard Linde when they're going up twenty four 502 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: to seven, they kind of lost their way. 503 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 3: They only had one pass after that. 504 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 1: They like Trevor Lawrence was brilliant in the first half, 505 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: ended up with less than two hundred yards and twelve completions. 506 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson went forward in his own like thirty yard 507 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: line on fourth down with a lot of time left, Like, 508 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: what happened here? 509 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 3: This? They should have dominated this game. 510 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: It's the Miami heat. 511 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 4: They put you in the sun when they're in the 512 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 4: shade and they cook you, and whatever happened, I have 513 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 4: to blame the heat. 514 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 2: The man lost his mind. Doug Pierson lost his mind. 515 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence was really having a good game, honestly, really 516 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 4: had in that first half. 517 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: Dude, when he was in that first half, I'm like, 518 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, twenty two to one those passing yard. 519 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 3: We got this locked. 520 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 2: So that's what happened. 521 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 4: No, I just like it just it was all smooth, 522 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 4: and like you said, they got away from their identity 523 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 4: in the second half, and it's like I went back 524 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 4: and watched. I mean, I guess you could say they 525 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 4: were getting a lot more pressure in the second half Miami, 526 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 4: and maybe that's why, you know, Douglas Trunk counter that 527 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 4: was running the ball more. But no, that's that's a 528 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 4: classic case of they're just that's a bad team that 529 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 4: lost a bad game, right, Like if they if they 530 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 4: had kind of been a different team this year, that's 531 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 4: kind of game you need to close out and win. 532 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: Right, that's a playoff team. 533 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 4: From last year in Miami. Yeah, you had them on 534 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 4: the ropes the whole game. 535 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 2: You're dominating. 536 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 4: Like you said, you fumbled out of the back of 537 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 4: the end zone. Okay, that's a turning point. They come 538 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 4: down the field, tire kill whoever it was, scored a touchdown. 539 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 4: Then you bounce back right. Then you come back out 540 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 4: there and you drive the field and get at least 541 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 4: a field goal there like you said, nothing Like they've 542 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 4: threed and now punted the rest. 543 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 2: Of the game. 544 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 4: And you know, Miami didn't play that well, but they 545 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 4: took advantage and they found a way to win. And 546 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 4: that's and then of the day. That's what makes great 547 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 4: teams for football. Like if you just somehow can find 548 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 4: a way to win on your worst day, you're a 549 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 4: really good team. So yeah, hats off to Miami and 550 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 4: just the coaching staff, like they kept their guys in it. 551 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: Tua never broke right. He was struggling as well. He 552 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 4: was having a bad game game, stuck with it, like 553 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 4: he was missing open guys too, and he stuck with him. 554 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 4: In the fourth quarter, he was on point, like making 555 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 4: big throws. And you know, Devon a Chan like another 556 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,959 Speaker 4: guy that you know last year couldn't stay healthy, right, 557 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 4: but everyone knows a talent level. He really showed up 558 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 4: in that second half as well. I mean he was 559 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 4: running the ball so well. So huge game from Miami, 560 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 4: But I mean you were pissed because we knew that 561 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 4: was a good cover number. That was a good number 562 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 4: three and a half on two what we viewed as 563 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,479 Speaker 4: equally even teams, and that number was never in doubt, right, 564 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 4: whatever it was, I think it was a six yard 565 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 4: field goal to win it by Miami. So yeah, could 566 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 4: just anyone that took the three and a half. 567 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: Those games, the Jags and the Colts basically ended back 568 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: to back on red zone. They were the two box 569 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: at the end, and I'm like, I need I need 570 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: both of these games, not just for the contest, but 571 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: just for my slate of bets today. I need them 572 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: for my lungs. The only thing I can take solace 573 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: in is that I only went half a unit on 574 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: the Giants because I just like at the end of the. 575 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 2: Day, I'm jealous. 576 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 3: I just I just believing and like, look, but that's 577 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 3: the worst. 578 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 4: Thing too, that like we said though, like I'm minute 579 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 4: in I was, even though they they were up three, 580 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 4: I just regretted it. I was like, why am I 581 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 4: so heavy on Daniel Jones? So you made the right 582 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 4: move there. But we're gonna Bears game. We're gonna get 583 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 4: to this Bears game or what talk about. 584 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: I just want to say one thing about the Steelers. 585 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you your flat hours for the Bears. Uh, 586 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: shame on us. On Tuesday, We're like, we like the 587 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: Jags and we like the Steelers. Why aren't we doing 588 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: the Jags and the Steelers? And then all week we 589 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: talked about this is a Mike Tomlin makes it ugly, 590 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,959 Speaker 1: wins is an underdog game. This is what he has 591 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: done for sixteen seventeen years. He is the best coach 592 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: against the spread as a dog. He is the best 593 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: coach outright as a dog in the past twenty years, 594 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: better than Belichick, better than Sean Payton, better than Mike Vrabel, 595 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: better than all the coaches who have dominated for betters. 596 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: Let the greatest of all time. Look at your work. 597 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: We suck and when TJ Will plays, they're like that 598 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: changes the calculus for everything. Yeah, we are terrible people, 599 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: non strategic, stupid, stubborn, blinded by our own biases. We 600 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: deserve to be one and two right now because we 601 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: could be three and m. 602 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 4: And I think, honestly, what got me Chad was just 603 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 4: again I overacted too much to It was the fact 604 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 4: that it was unknown who the quarterback was going to be, 605 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 4: and I had questions about their offensive line, and my 606 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 4: thinking was, well, I don't know how they're going to 607 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 4: keep up with Atlanta where we nailed on Tuesday. We said, 608 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 4: this is Kirk cousins first start going against the top 609 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 4: five defense, Like this was a nightmare. Snaiy to put 610 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 4: this guy in and he failed. Like that's what the 611 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 4: worst part was. We capted it perfectly. It was like, 612 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 4: did it. 613 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 2: Matter that the offensive line's bad on Pittsburgh and that 614 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 2: it was justin field? 615 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 4: No, I mean they can kick five field goals or 616 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 4: six field goals and all work out for him, just 617 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 4: because that defense is so incredibly talented. So that was 618 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 4: as Mike Tomlin as it can get, right. 619 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 5: I probably do have a talent for understanding people, But 620 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 5: is it a talent is not just listening when they talking? 621 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 5: For real coaches like the think we listen, coaches don't listen. 622 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 5: They wait for dude's mouse to stop moving. 623 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 4: All hard all grit offense was terrible. I mean it 624 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 4: really was at times just horrible. But you know, with 625 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 4: Fields they can run that kind of spread option, right, 626 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 4: they can run in and spread you out, and you 627 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 4: know it does not score touchdowns, but at least move 628 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 4: the ball where Atlanta could not move the ball, and 629 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 4: when they would JJ would pop up and make a 630 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 4: huge playing kind of flipped the game. 631 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 2: So yeah, brutal, brutal leave them that went. 632 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 4: Off, especially because that's like a game we nailed talking 633 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 4: about and just a game we always taken that spot. 634 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 4: But I think it's just tough where it's like you 635 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 4: hear so much noise, I'm here so much from the 636 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 4: peanut gallery that doesn't make you a question you're thinking 637 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 4: of It was like, you know, they're right, their offensive 638 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 4: line is bad and justin fields does. 639 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 2: Burn us in these kind of spots. 640 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 4: And that number did go from two and a half 641 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 4: to closing at four and a half by kickoff, So Yeah, 642 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 4: some professionals winning heavy on Atlanta and they clearly got 643 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 4: burned by it. But yeah, lesson learn like we we 644 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 4: like Pittsburgh in those kind of spots. That was one 645 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 4: of their easier games we'll have all season matchup wise, 646 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:41,959 Speaker 4: and we definitely missed on it. 647 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and don't we have listened to the Peanut Gallery 648 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: and the Panthers and the Giants because I would have 649 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: rather have listened to them on Matt and. 650 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 4: Definitely the Giants Vikings one that was the toughest. Yeah, 651 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 4: the Peanut Gallery was. 652 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 2: Heavy on the Vikings and I was just like, Nah, 653 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: you don't know, you don't. 654 00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: Know, somebody knows. Oh, the irony. Everyone loves the Ravens. 655 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: Everyone loves the Bengals. Everyone's enamored with the Browns defense 656 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: that just gave up a million points to Dak Prescott, 657 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: the highest paid quarterback ever. Now the only team to 658 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: win in the AFC North this week. Pittsburgh Steelers, congrats guys, 659 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: more one Mike Tomlin score one for going over their 660 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 1: wind total. Let's see if they can keep the streak alive. 661 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: I do want to there's a couple things we gotta say. 662 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: The Bears. 663 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 3: You nailed it like flowers for you. 664 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: I couldn't get myself there, and for the first half 665 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: it looked like I was one hundred percent right. But 666 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: I very specifically did not text you it's not going 667 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: to say anything because it's a long game. 668 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. 669 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: I literally had no joke, forty five text messages on 670 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: my Bears text chain from the first half, which I 671 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: didn't answer because like, I'm taking notes on the games, 672 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: and I'm freaking out of at our bets and I'm 673 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: trying to keep my cool with all these people in 674 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: my house, Like I just can't engage. Caleb Williams already 675 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: looked broken, like in the second half he was. It 676 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: looked like he was literally pushing the ball instead of 677 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: throwing it. He was leaving the pocket the second his 678 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: first read wasn't there. 679 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, like Keen Allen's dropping wide open touchdowns. 680 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 3: Dropping passes. 681 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: The good news is he had a Hall of Fame 682 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: kneel down, and really, I don't think any bare quarterback 683 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,719 Speaker 1: has ever looked better kneeling down than Caleb Williams. 684 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 3: But this was not a win to be proud of. 685 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 4: I would say it is. I mean, a win's a win. 686 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 4: I don't care how you get it, but to me, 687 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 4: it was good man. You got to see him get 688 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 4: humbled and he realized, like the scrambling back ten yards 689 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 4: is all funn and que when it works out. When 690 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 4: it doesn't work out and you lose twenty yards and 691 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 4: take your team out of field goal position, and. 692 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 2: Chicago's letting you know you're an idiot. He needs that. 693 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 4: Like this kid, he's had a little bit too good 694 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 4: in his life, right, and this is this is gonna 695 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 4: be a good year for Caleb Blims. This is the 696 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 4: reason though, that I, me and you were laughing about 697 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 4: their win total over nine and a half and just 698 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 4: saw the hyper getting you know, Nick Wright's picking them 699 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 4: to go to the super Bowl. It's just like you're 700 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 4: a rookie. There's a reason we were so enamored with CJ. Right, 701 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 4: Like CJ going twenty three touches on five picks. You 702 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 4: don't see that kind of composure from rookies. You see 703 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 4: what we saw today from all the rookies right struggling. 704 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 4: Like that's another thing I was pissed about. It is 705 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 4: I told you whatever that was two weeks ago. I'm like, 706 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 4: we should fade these rookies on the road here just 707 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 4: because it's it is so tough, right in your first 708 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 4: start on the road. I mean Williams showed that at home, 709 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 4: how tough it is, right when the fans turned on 710 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 4: him a little bit that first half. I can't imagine 711 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 4: what the locker room was like for the bearers, right, 712 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 4: I mean it's seventeen nothing or whatever. It was seventeen three. 713 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 4: But when I made the bet, my whole point was 714 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 4: I just thought ten See was bad and I thought 715 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 4: will Levis was bad. And it took a while to 716 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 4: get there, Chad, right, it took a little bit for 717 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 4: him to. 718 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 3: You know what. He was bad. He got bad. 719 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 2: He was bad. 720 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 4: It's just like when it's third and seven, you got 721 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 4: no hope with will Levis, Like there's a couple of 722 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 4: kbs like that, and you know, I never thought the 723 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 4: number would get there, right, just because there were in 724 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 4: such a hole. And it was like, well, if they 725 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 4: get up to twenty one seventeen, they can cover the 726 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 4: four and I can get my three and a half. 727 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 4: Check can get his four and a half. No, No, 728 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 4: will Levis didn't even better. He threw a pick six. 729 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 4: I think Stucky had the tweet. It was like amazing. 730 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 4: It was basically, how often does the team come back 731 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 4: from down seventeen to win a game with zero offensive touchdowns? 732 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's ever happened before. You either astonishing, 733 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 2: it's astonishing. 734 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 4: So, like you said, Chad, that's good teams win those 735 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 4: kind of games. And I know it's hard for you 736 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 4: as a Chicagoan because you've just been through the fucking ringer, 737 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 4: but I'd be positive, like this is exciting going forward 738 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 4: because they do have a lot to build on, a 739 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 4: work on, and that to me is like that was 740 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 4: one of the worst offensive performances we'll see this season. 741 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: I think from Caleb Williams, I think he'll get better. 742 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 2: That was just he said he doesn't get nervous. Dude, 743 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 2: you're human. 744 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 4: You clearly get nervous, because he was full of jitter's 745 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 4: not game and happy feet. So yeah, I don't know 746 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 4: if we'll bet them next week because it's it's under 747 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 4: a touchdown right now in Houston at home on Monday 748 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 4: night against the Bear. So I will be honest with 749 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 4: you chat right now. I did throw a little bit 750 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: on Houston right now while it's under seven, just because 751 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 4: I do think that number is gonna go up. 752 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: All right, well let's talk about him. So just a reminder, 753 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: we've got the Lions tonight. We're not gonna spend too 754 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: much time on the Lions because we've talked about him 755 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: so much. 756 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 4: But uh, don't minus five though, that feels like that's 757 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 4: totally gone value wise. 758 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, we were on the Lions at three and a half. 759 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 3: We're on the line. 760 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 4: I'm taking them four and a half too, But at 761 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 4: four and a half, it's just like, come on the survivor. 762 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: We had the Bengals. That's a bummer. 763 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,439 Speaker 1: We also had the Seahawks, so we split in sort 764 00:35:58,480 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: of the pools that we're in. 765 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 3: Still alive, We'll keep talking about. 766 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 2: Its up to five and a half now. Lines at 767 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 2: bet three six. 768 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 4: Five, Jesus, jeez, jesus over unders fifty three, I mean, 769 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 4: throw if you missed everything, you haven't bet anything in 770 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 4: this game. 771 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 2: Throw it on the end here that that's a really 772 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 2: high number. 773 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 3: Nick Giffin likes the under on the first half of 774 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 3: corning to wa. 775 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 2: Do that thing. Yeah, goo roll with Nick and his 776 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: luck rankings. 777 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: I like that couple of Week two lines that I 778 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: just want to get to before we get out of here. 779 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: You just mentioned Houston five and a half, right, six 780 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: and a half. It's up to six and a half 781 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 1: over the Bears. 782 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 2: It could be a lesser book. Our sponsor's book is 783 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 2: six and a half. 784 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: I just saw Buffalo Miami. Buffalo opened is a one 785 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 1: point underdog at Miami. That line I just saw move 786 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 1: to one and a half. I don't know what you're 787 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: seeing on Beth three six five right now. 788 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Buffalo's defense might be absolutely dog shit. 789 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 2: So I get I get why the professionals are coming 790 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 2: to Miami and then they're at home in a short week. 791 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: But yeah, we'll wait for that one to talk wu'sday. 792 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: A couple of games that interested me. I know it's 793 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: terrible to say this. Cincinnati they're plus six. Obviously we 794 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: got to wait and see what happens. Well, we know 795 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,760 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. It's Cincinnati plus six. For a second, 796 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 1: I forgot there. We're playing the Chiefs and not the Niners. 797 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: Cincinnati plus six, like. 798 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: Probably know, my Simon says, bet I already took the 799 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 2: six and a half. It's down to six. I'll take 800 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 2: the six as well. 801 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: It's like like that line could go up over the 802 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: course of the week with all the I don't think. 803 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 4: I don't know if they're pros al out at chet 804 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 4: because this is already insane. It was three and a 805 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 4: half before games kicked off today. Are the Bengals three 806 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 4: points worse than they were twelve hours ago? 807 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 3: I don't. 808 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just we talk all the time. 809 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 4: It's over overaction. The week one like that, that game, 810 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 4: everything went wrong. They're about to score the go ahead touchdown, 811 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 4: the guy fumbles into the end zone, right, they get 812 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 4: a kick, the guy who muffs the punt, Like, it's 813 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 4: just I think the commentator said they only had two 814 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 4: fumbles all of last season. 815 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 2: They had two in that game. 816 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:08,879 Speaker 3: Just half. 817 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's just a game from hell. So it's 818 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 4: like me and Chad, I know, it's gross pool. You 819 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 4: have to buy a loan in these scenarios. So we 820 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 4: we love Mahomes. We always talk about this on our show. 821 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 4: We love Mahomes at less than three point favorite. 822 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 2: So if he's. 823 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 4: Two and a half or if he's an underdog, we 824 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,879 Speaker 4: buy in Mahomes. We always fade Mahomes when it's over four. 825 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 4: We just always do it because he always plays in 826 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 4: these close games. So Chad, You're so right calling this 827 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 4: game out first. This is one of my favorite games 828 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 4: that popped up for this early buying. 829 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: By the way, Evan just threw this one stat into 830 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,839 Speaker 1: the chat that I need to read to people, and 831 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 1: it's germane. For a couple of reasons, one, bet three 832 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: sixty five has an incredible early payout offer. If any 833 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 1: team that you've bet on goes up by seventeen points, 834 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: your bet automatically cash is So if the other team 835 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: comes back to win, doesn't matter. You've cast your bet low. 836 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: And behold that happened with the Titans today. So they lost, 837 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 1: but you won your bet if you bet with bet 838 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: three six five. If you went because they got up 839 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: seventeen to nothing, dogs are four points to lead by 840 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: seventeen plus at any point in a game, we're sixty 841 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: six one and one against the spread. It's twenty nineteen. 842 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: They are now sixty six two and one against the spread. 843 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: The other game, two other games, Dallas is minus six. 844 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 3: Love it right now. 845 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 2: I say, we grab it as soon as I saw 846 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 2: that number come out. 847 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 4: It's Dallas at home against a bad team like we 848 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 4: always we always played Dallas. Yeahs, and especially that bad 849 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 4: team is the Saint who just put up fifty points 850 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 4: or whatever. 851 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: It was like, if this game to me, this game 852 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: and you'll do your numbers this week. But I feel 853 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: like this game should be at least a touchdown. 854 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 2: I think that's what it will be. I think I'll 855 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: either at seven or seven and a half. 856 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 4: So the fact that you can get six six and 857 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 4: a half right now, I just grab it before it 858 00:39:59,160 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 4: does go to seven. 859 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 2: Opinion. 860 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 3: All right, those were the games. Anything else I'm missing? 861 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I grabbed Colts minus three right now, just in 862 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 4: case it is Milik Willis right, that's what they're saying, Chad, 863 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 4: I know Ryan Tannehill has gotten some buzz yep. So 864 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 4: that's Ryan Tannehill coming off of beaching Bahamas to be 865 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: their quarterback and playing a game in six days. 866 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 2: So it's like either quarterback, whoever it is. I'm feeling 867 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 2: confident about this bet. Right. 868 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 4: So there's a reason Green Bay and we had to 869 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 4: give up a seventh round pick to get their starting 870 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 4: quarterback right now? 871 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 2: So yeah, this. 872 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 4: I wanted to be on Green Bay because I thought 873 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 4: this line would be like six or something, and the 874 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 4: fact that it's just three right now, I would just 875 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 4: grab because I could see the public coming in this 876 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: number going up. 877 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: As a reminder, the Favorites podcast is presented by Bet 878 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 1: three six ' five and this justin new Bet three 879 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: six y five customers now get two hundred dollars in 880 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: bonus bets when you bet five dollars.
