1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: The biggest gap in sports is a difference between the 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 1: winner and the loser of the Super Bowl. The winner, 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 1: you're world champion, You'll never forget it. The loser, they 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,239 Speaker 1: just get thrown back in the pile. 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 2: All right, here we go the test throwing into spectacular cat. 6 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 3: I'm sitting it to cash. 7 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 2: We'll see the most gamblers when they go to gamble, 8 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 2: they go to win. 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 3: God, that's incredible. 10 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 2: Big bank, small banks. I like to make the money. 11 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 3: All right, this is the ultimate kabine you wanna pull? 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,599 Speaker 3: And we are underway. 13 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 2: What's up, everybody? Welcome to the Action Network Podcast presented 14 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 2: by Bett MGM. I'm your host, Chris Raybond of the 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: Action Network, and this is your Super Bowl fifty eight 16 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 2: betting preview. We're gonna build our Super Bowl Sunday six pack, 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: of course, with the help of my co host, the 18 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 2: Prime Minister of Degenerate Nation, Stucky stuck it up. Congrats 19 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: on the win this year. No way I can catch 20 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: you in a contest. Are up nine? So what's going on? 21 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: Yeah? 22 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 3: What's going on? Brother? Depressing Conference Championship weekend? For me, 23 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: it was a great NFL year. Luck fart Andoy's I 24 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 3: have Lamar MVP at least will cash, but it was 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 3: so close built and then Ravens Mahomes takes them both 26 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 3: out and look, I'm mainly more upset for others who followed. 27 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 3: Also shout out to z Flowers for getting a personal 28 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 3: foul so you get two more catches to go over 29 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 3: and then fumbling on the fifth one at the goal line, 30 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 3: which was fun. Look, I've been betting for a long time, 31 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 3: you know, losing NFL seasons. I can't really complain. I've 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: had futures that have come close. I didn't hedge anything. 33 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 3: I've hit a bit close the last couple of years, 34 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: but I've hit in the past. It's just the way 35 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 3: that it happened is what depressed me the most. The 36 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 3: fact that the Ravens they galaxy brain themselves. It was 37 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: just a depressing way to go out and that that 38 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 3: was not who that team was all year. So credit 39 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: to the Chiefs. Yeah, another game. I thought the forty 40 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 3: nine ers for a second shat week up really fortunate 41 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: to escape, which doesn't happen often. You don't really see 42 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 3: teams get lucky back to back playoff games to get 43 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 3: to the super Bowl. 44 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, they. 45 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 3: Pulled that one out, and I think it was more 46 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 3: about Detroit making mistakes. But here we are a lot 47 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 3: of little deja vus. It's time to move on and 48 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 3: try to find some winners for the super Bowl. Or 49 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 3: were your quick thoughts on either game? 50 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: Totally agree on Detroit when they went forward on that 51 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: fourth down, and I know it was a you know, 52 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 2: solid play call just to drop past, but I looked 53 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,839 Speaker 2: and I said, listen, you're, what twenty minutes away from 54 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: the super Bowl. You've never been there as a franchise. 55 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 2: I get your identity, but go up three scores. Make 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: San Francisco have to score three times, maybe even four, 57 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 2: you know, because you know two touchdowns at a field 58 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 2: go just ties it, well, you don't score at all, 59 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: because that essentially make San Francisco be perfect. And instead, 60 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 2: you know, it didn't go their way, and that's that, 61 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 2: you know. I don't hate it, but I just kind 62 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: of kind of felt like that was that was the 63 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: turning point. And then Baltimore, I mean, yeah, that killed 64 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: me from a I think I went zero to four 65 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 2: in that game. It's just you can't ever guarantee that 66 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: a team is going to do what makes sense, and 67 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 2: you know, I just was surprised because I thought that, 68 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 2: you know, Harbaugh one of the best coaches I've been 69 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 2: there before. I know, Todd Munky was hired to kind 70 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,399 Speaker 2: of get away from some of the stuff Roman did, 71 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: but a lot of that was probably on Monkey too, 72 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: And you know, I'm sure some of it's on Lamar. 73 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: You know, I'm sure he has chances to checking in 74 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: out of runs at the line. Yeah, that's something we'll 75 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: talk about for the Super Bowl because I think that's 76 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: an interesting dynamic when when you start talking about Mahomes 77 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: and then Purdy, how I think Mahomes has evolved and 78 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: you know, does Perdy have that same type of freedom 79 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: has he? Does he have that evolution because you know, 80 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 2: both run defenses are the weak points in this matchup. 81 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: But yeah, just inexplicable from Baltimore. I mean, the fact 82 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 2: that Justice Hill played seventy percent of the snow Apps 83 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: was absurd. You know, just Lamar continues to sleep walk 84 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: through some of the most important games of his life. 85 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: So let me set up the line first before we 86 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: jump into it. As we record this at bet MGM, 87 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: the Niners are favored by two. The total is forty 88 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 2: seven and a half the line has generally been two 89 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: for the Niners. We've seen a little bit of movement 90 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: to two and a half at points, we saw some 91 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: more money for now is coming in on the on 92 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 2: the Niners or more big money. The public has been 93 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: more on the Chiefs. I'll talk about that, and let's 94 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: talk some long shots, some MVP touchdowns, all that stuff. 95 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: And yeah, let's let's get into the final Sunday six 96 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: pack of the year, the Super Bowl fifty eight Sunday 97 00:04:50,000 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 2: six pack Thursday for action. Let's crack open the Sunday 98 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: six pack. All right. For my first pick of the 99 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 2: Super Bowl fifty eight Sunday six pack, I'm rolling with 100 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs plus two against the Niners. And 101 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: there are a bunch of different factors why I like 102 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: the Chiefs in this game despite them being a dog. 103 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 2: And there's also I think a lot of misinformation or 104 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: a lot of people kind of because the public is 105 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: on the Chiefs for the most part that I've seen, 106 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 2: But I don't see a lot of people kind of 107 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 2: breaking down why beyond oh, well, you know, Mahomes has 108 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 2: been was good enough in the first half last week, 109 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: you know, so I saw all I need to see. 110 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 2: I don't want to bet against Mahomes as a dog, 111 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 2: YadA YadA, but I do think that this Kansas City 112 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: offense enters this matchup a little bit underrated even, and 113 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 2: that sounds crazy to say with the you know, probably 114 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 2: the second greatest quarterback, maybe the greatest one. It's all 115 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 2: sudden done, ever, but here's why I think that this 116 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: chief offense is overrated, and well, I think it can 117 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 2: have success against the Niners defense. So I think the 118 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: big thing here, first of all, for me, that actually 119 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: made a you know, a dent in or change the 120 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: you know, how I rate the Chiefs in their offense 121 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 2: is something we saw last week that we really haven't 122 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: seen all year and it didn't really go to notice 123 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 2: because the Chiefs only put up seventeen points, didn't do 124 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: anything in the second half. But Canarius Tony, Nicole Hardman, 125 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: sky Moore, Justin Ross played a combined one snap excluding 126 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: Neil downs. Obviously, Tony was a scratch again. Hardman went 127 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: from being in on you know, forty to forty five 128 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 2: percent of the pass plays the first two postseason games 129 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: to one snap. Sky Moore wasn't activated off and Justin 130 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: Ross was active, but only played on the kneel down, 131 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: So why is that such a big factor. You know, 132 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: these guys are like ancillary receivers. Well, you're gonna kind 133 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: of say, well, this has been a down year for 134 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: the Chiefs offense. They're not as good. Maybe Tyreek, No, 135 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 2: Tyreek is finally starting to catch up to them. Mahomes 136 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 2: hasn't been as good. All that stuff. Well, those four 137 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: guys Tony Hardman, sky Moore, justin Rosss have been incredibly 138 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 2: awful this year, to the point where the Chiefs EPA 139 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: offensive changes completely when you kind of remove these guys 140 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 2: from the equation, which, oh it's more than drops, it's Franklin. 141 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 2: Is just fascinating to me just how bad this this 142 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: quartet has been terrible. Now Here are some of the highlights. 143 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: Canarius Tony fifty plays for him drawn up between targets 144 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: and rushing attempts. Two hundred yards from those plays four 145 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 2: yards of play. That's awful. McCall Hardman. Excluding Week eighteen 146 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: when everyone rested and he played every snap and Mahomes 147 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: didn't start. Mccol Hardman, nineteen plays have been drawn up 148 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: for him forty four yards two point three yards a 149 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: play passer ratings. Let's talk passer ratings. We know Mahomes 150 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: usually well over one hundred canarios, Tony sixty eight, sixty 151 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: eight passer rating on an average up to target under three. 152 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: You're supposed to be super efficient. There's supposed to be 153 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: no turnovers, nothing like that. That's the best Raw sixty 154 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 2: seven point six, sky Moore fifty three to five, McCole 155 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 2: Hardman forty four to three. If you total all the 156 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: mistakes up, eleven drops charted at PFF. I'm sure different, 157 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 2: you know, charting sites have different numbers, but eleven drops. 158 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 2: Seven interceptions. Remember Mahomes only threw fourteen picks this year, 159 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: you know, I mean that was a lot for him. 160 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: But seven interceptions between these four guys on just one 161 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: hundred and twelve targets, So just one sixth of essentially 162 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: Kansas City's passing attempts. Half of the interception or fumbles, 163 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: a couple penalties, a muff punt, two absolutely essentially game 164 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: losing plays. When you talk about Tony's picked tip on 165 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: the Lions game twenty one to twenty, the chief loss 166 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: and then the jump off sides on the Buffalo game 167 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: cost them that game. Also two of sixteen in terms 168 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: of converting red zone targets into touchdowns, less than half 169 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 2: of the rate for every other Kansas City pass catcher. 170 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: And now, if you look at Mahomes's numbers, which this 171 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 2: is where it really opened my eyes, because remember, Mahomes 172 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: only has ninety five targets. These guys overall, they have 173 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve a couple of those game with 174 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: the backup, but Mahomes has ninety five targets those four 175 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 2: guys combined. If you remove them, which without even replacing, 176 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: because usually if you remove you know, wide receiver numbers 177 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: from a quarterback, his numbers are gonna get worse because 178 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: wide receivers are getting the most yardage. You remove those 179 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: four guys, mahomes yards per attempt goes from seven point 180 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 2: zero to seven point five, which is a massive jump. 181 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 2: And remember you know yardage per attempt efficiency pass in 182 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: the past game is directly correlated to point differentially, so 183 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: seven to seven and a half. And then we know turnovers. 184 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 2: You know, you win the turnover about or you win 185 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 2: about seventy five eighty percent of the time. Mahomes interception 186 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 2: rate goes from two percent even to one point one 187 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: six percent it nearly cuts in half. I'll put it 188 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 2: this way. Mahomes has gone the longest stretch of his 189 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: career without a turnover worthy play according to PFF's charting. 190 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: Right now, he's still in the midst of that. His 191 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: touchdown percentage also goes up, so literally, essentially, the two 192 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: most important components to winning football games, pass game efficiency 193 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: and turnovers have a direct correlation to these four terrible receivers. 194 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 2: That so one combined snap last week in the most 195 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 2: important game of the year. That's the first thing you 196 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: Also when you're looking at the Chiefs and saying, Okay, 197 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: their offense kind of kind of mid this year, Well, 198 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: I don't believe in just you know, looking at like, oh, 199 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 2: well they did good in the first half last week. 200 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: That's just one. It's like that's Recncy biased, right, That's 201 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: and you're just discounting half the game for no reason 202 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: because they didn't do anything in the second half. But 203 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: I am a proponent of you have to find the 204 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 2: relevant sample, and you're not always going to find the 205 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: relevant sample as is. Sometimes you have to dig deeper 206 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: and kind of put things together like I'm kind of doing. 207 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 2: You know, Okay, what happens if we remove these receivers 208 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 2: who aren't going to play. So Travis Kelcey, remember he 209 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: missed Week one, he's on the field for you know, 210 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: usually over ninety percent of the past plays. Averaged just 211 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 2: a seventy six percent route participation rate through the buy 212 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: didn't even hit ninety percent in a game until Week eleven. 213 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: But we know what he can do in the postseason. 214 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: He scored eighteen touchdowns in seventeen games with Mahomes. 215 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 3: Obviously benefit from two weeks before the Super Bowl as well. 216 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just looks for I mean, you could just 217 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 2: tell just by watching him. He just looks he's ready 218 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: to go. So you know, the talk of his demise 219 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: was premature. But Rashi Rice another key component to this 220 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 2: offense and really the reason that none of these other 221 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: guys that I mentioned have to play anymore. Remember rookie 222 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 2: came into Week one and you know read generally not 223 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: gonna end my homes even you know they're gonna kind 224 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 2: of not always going to trust rookies right off the bat. 225 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: So Rashi Rice, who's a ninety percent guy, now averages 226 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 2: just a thirty five percent route participation rate through the 227 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 2: first six weeks sixty percent up until week thirteen. So 228 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 2: even once he started playing more, he was still you know, 229 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 2: kind of getting snaps akin to a third receiver. But 230 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 2: this guy is top five in yards per route against 231 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: zone coverage on the year. And remember San Francisco heavy 232 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 2: zone team, like Travis Kelce catches over eighty percent of 233 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: his targets and you're talking about one of the most 234 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 2: if not the most accurate passer in the game. So 235 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 2: you've replaced those crappy receivers who are just losing games 236 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 2: for you, but a guy like Rice who has been 237 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 2: a real downfield or his average at the target is 238 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 2: around five. But what that does is, combined with Kelsey, 239 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: you now have two just elite hyper efficient you know 240 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 2: underneath to intermediate options from a homes to replace all 241 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: these gadget guys that it just wasn't working out for. 242 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: And then on top of that, Isaiah Pachecko even missed 243 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: a few games this season. And if you look at 244 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 2: Pachecko's numbers versus the rest of Kansas City running backs 245 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 2: that carried the football, there's also you know, you probably 246 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: have to bump up Kansas City's offense because when you 247 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 2: look at Pachecko. He's averaging four and a half yards 248 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: of carry. He's getting a run of fifteen or more 249 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: about five percent of the time. Other Kansas City running 250 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 2: backs carried the ball one hundred and twenty three times 251 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: this year for just three point four yards per carry, 252 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: just three runs of fifteen or more. So no explosiveness, 253 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: no efficiency. So you got to bump Kansas City up 254 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 2: for that too. So you put all those things together, 255 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: and this Kansasity offense I think is underrated in the market. 256 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: It's a tough you know, there's a lot of different 257 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: moving parts that you kind of have to put together 258 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: to really get an accurate handicap of this offense. But 259 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 2: then you start looking at the matchup. Okay, San Francisco's 260 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: defense generally has been good this year, but we know 261 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 2: a couple of things about them. Number one, their run defense. 262 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: Everyone's talking about the Chiefs. If you remove you know, 263 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: garbage time, which you shouldn't really be looking at running 264 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 2: back rushing stats in garbage time. You remove garbage time, 265 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 2: San Francisco is actually worse in a lot of run 266 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: defense metrics than the Kansas City Chiefs, and especially in 267 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 2: these playoffs. But also they struggle with mobile quarterbacks because 268 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 2: their main advantage on defense, and it has been like 269 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: this for years now, is they can rush for and 270 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 2: drop seven in the coverage. Well, when you have a 271 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: quarterback that can move around, that throws off the mat 272 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 2: a little bit because now you have this extra offensive 273 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 2: player to account for. And we o Mahomes and the 274 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 2: playoffs scramble rate goes up. He's averaging about seven yards 275 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 2: per game more career postseason than regular season. His yards 276 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 2: for carry goes up, and that's even with some very 277 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: long meal downs and his touchdowns rate more than doubles. 278 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 2: So Mahomes, you know he's gonna move around, and you 279 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: mentioned it. He's playing some of the best ball of 280 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 2: his life. He's learned to be more patient in the pocket, 281 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 2: but he also knows exactly when to take off. He's 282 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: not forcing any throws, but he's looking for, you know, 283 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 2: his high, high percentage guys, which he has two of 284 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: now underneath because when she Rice averaging just under six 285 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 2: catches a game, seventy yards a game since Week six, 286 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: and that the other effect of that is because you 287 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 2: have Rice playing every snap, because you have Kelsey as 288 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: another week underneath guy, and of course, you know Pacheco 289 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: would be the other underneath guy. But what that's done 290 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 2: is when he stopped playing hard and he'stopped playing Tony 291 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 2: all these other guys. You have Watson and you have 292 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: father Scaling on the outside. So if teams sell out 293 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: and they want to you want to double Kelsey and 294 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: you want a double Rice or something to that extent. Well, 295 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 2: now he has two field stretchers, one on each side. 296 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 2: And we know Mahomes is one of the best deep 297 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 2: ball throws, one of the most accurate deep both throwers 298 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 2: and Watson and MVS both can be man covered. That's 299 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 2: kind of their specialty, as you would expect from field stretchers. 300 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 2: Watson just point seven yards per rout against zone, but 301 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 2: two point three against man. It's very good. And MVS 302 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: point six five yards per out against zone. Uh, one 303 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 2: point six against man. So he more than doubles uh. 304 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: And so that's kind of when he's in. Mahomes is 305 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: trusting him more so if you get San Francisco out 306 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: of its zone, because you know Mahomes can just dice 307 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: that up. You have a top five guy and Rice 308 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 2: against zone. Well, if you get San Francisco out of 309 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: that now Mahomes has, you know, two guys on the 310 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 2: outside that can beat man coverage. And also now you're 311 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 2: making San Francisco's defense play a little bit left handed 312 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,959 Speaker 2: because if you look at their numbers, when they are 313 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 2: playing man coverage on the season, their adjusted netyards and 314 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: attempt increases a whole half a yard, which again is 315 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: pretty massive, especially when you're talking about point differential. Their 316 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 2: touchdown rate more it quadruples goes from one point five 317 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,959 Speaker 2: percent to six point seven percent allowed when they go 318 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 2: from zone demand and in the postseason it's been even 319 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 2: more pronounced. They are giving up about five point three 320 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 2: adjusted netyards per attempt when they're in zone coverage. When 321 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 2: they're in man that goes to seven point nine. So 322 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 2: this Kansas City offense, I think can put some pressure 323 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 2: on this Niner defense. Mahomes has been a lot better 324 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 2: at checking in their runs, and I do think they're 325 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 2: vulnerable on the ground. But let's flip it around. Let's 326 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 2: look at the Niners offense now, because we know this 327 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 2: Kansas City defense has been a week but when you 328 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 2: look at San Francisco's offense, they've been excellent too, especially 329 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 2: when everyone's healthy. But the one thing about kind of 330 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 2: breaking out San Francisco and saying, well, okay, as long 331 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 2: as Trent and Debo are healthy, you know this team 332 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 2: has been unstoppable. There's no way to stop them. Well, yes, 333 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 2: it just so happened if they got injured all at 334 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 2: the same time and in some tough matchups. But I 335 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: also think there's something that here that the Chiefs can 336 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 2: kind of replicate that is going to give Party trouble. 337 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 2: And obviously, you know this is mahomes what four Super 338 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 2: Bowl Uh, this is parties first, you know, But beyond that, 339 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: it wasn't just that in those in the four losses, 340 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 2: which are Cleveland, Minnesota, Cincinnati, Baltimore. Uh, it wasn't just that. Okay, 341 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 2: Debo and Trent were oute. So you know, the offense 342 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 2: was less efficient, which you would expect them would be understandable, 343 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 2: but Rock Party also made a lot more just flat 344 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 2: out mistakes in those games. Nine of his twelve picks 345 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 2: came in those four losses. Eleven of his twenty one 346 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 2: some more than half of his turnover worthy plays came 347 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: in those four matchups. And you know, besides the injuries, 348 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 2: what else do these four matchups have in common? And 349 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: also have in common with the Chiefs in this matchup 350 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 2: elite defensive minds at coordinator. Cleveland has Jim Schwartz. Minnesota 351 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 2: has Brian Flores, and we've talked ad nauseum about the 352 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 2: impact he's had. Cincinnati lou Ana Rumo famously had the 353 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: game plan of his life to stop Mahomes from going 354 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: to another Super Bowl a couple of years ago. And 355 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 2: Baltimore Mike McDonald, you know, one of the hottest coaching 356 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 2: hires on the market, and a team that actually did 357 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 2: shut out Mahomes for the entire in the Chiefs for 358 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 2: in the entire second half, which I you know, still 359 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: relatively impressive. Well, Steve Spagnoah just as good as all 360 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 2: these guys. And when you look at playoffs, Spagnola, I 361 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 2: mean it might even be better. Remember this is the 362 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: guy that came up with the game plan that shut 363 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 2: down Tom Brady and when they were undefeated in O 364 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 2: seven and now he finally has defensive talent to work with. 365 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 2: So that brings me to what I think is going 366 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 2: to give people the most cause about this about picking 367 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 2: the Chiefs. If if people do have pause, and that's 368 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 2: the batchup in a run game, you know, San Francisco 369 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 2: at McCaffrey going up against the Chiefs. Well, we know 370 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 2: run is less important in the past. Like that's just 371 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 2: the analytically, you know, that's what the analytics said. We 372 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 2: know that, right, So let's break down Kansas City for 373 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 2: worst rushing games this year. One to to Buffalo, but 374 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 2: they hold Buffalo to just one hundred and eighty six 375 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 2: passing yards. One fifty seven to Vegas in week sixteen. 376 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: Also recent, but they held Vegas to forty eight passing yards. 377 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: One fifty three to Denver in week eight, but they 378 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: held Denver to eighty seven passing yards. So he sense 379 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: a trend here, They haven't. They they're giving up about 380 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 2: one hundred passing yards a game in these games where 381 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: they're you know, playing the worst run defense. The other 382 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 2: sixteen games of the Chiefs allowing one hundred and two 383 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: rushing yards a game, right around league averaging yards per carry. 384 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 2: Look at early downs, remove week eighteen and remove garbage tack. 385 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: Kansas City sixteenth in run defense success rate on early 386 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: downs at thirty seven percent, so righting around the league average, 387 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 2: and for comparison, San Francisco thirty nine eight. They're twenty seconds. So, 388 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 2: like I said, some of the run defensive metrics. Actually, 389 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 2: you know, San Francisco is just as worried. Some of 390 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 2: the playoffs. San Francisco's been five percent worse. So Kansas City. Yeah, 391 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: will they get run on, absolutely, But is it something 392 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: that's necessarily going to lose them the game. I don't think. So, 393 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: you know, to close it out and look at some trends. 394 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes in the postseason twelve and five against the spread, 395 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: seventy one percent, covering by a field goal per game, 396 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 2: straight up eighty two percent at fourteen and three. And 397 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 2: when you look at Mahomes's three postseason losses, twice to 398 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,719 Speaker 2: Tom Brady, once Belichick, which also you know goes back 399 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: like when you have those a week defensive mind that 400 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 2: always helps. So twice to Tom Brady and once to 401 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, who also had Anna Rumo as a defensive coordinator. 402 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 2: So Tom Brady twice and Joe Burrow. That's it. That's 403 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: the only times Patrick Mahomes has ever lost as an 404 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 2: underdog ten one and one against the spread career, covering 405 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: by seven and a half points per game. So I 406 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: do think the market is a little bit low on 407 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 2: the Chiefs. So love taking the points. Here, give me 408 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: ca C plus. 409 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 3: Two solo pod for the Super Bowl? 410 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 2: How to go in, how to get it all out? 411 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 3: For first pick, I'm a six pack. It's for the 412 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 3: Luckily I don't on sleep. It's four in the morning. 413 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 3: Some people might have fallen asleep if they were, but 414 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 3: that was amazing stuff. As always. Let me I'll go 415 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: into my second pick in the second overall of the 416 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 3: Super Bowl Sunday pack. I'm going with the forty nine 417 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 3: ers money line in the first half. So what a 418 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 3: transition get You went on this long winding road on 419 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: both sides of the ball, breaking down, which is what 420 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 3: we want to do for this game. And then I 421 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 3: respond by saying, hey, we're going to forty nine ers. 422 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 3: Start a staff. So I agree with a lot of 423 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 3: the things that you said. Although the Chiefs run defense 424 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 3: is legitimately bad, and they also are once and the 425 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 3: forty nine Ers are the best run offense in the NFL, 426 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 3: and they have Kyle Shanneh with two weeks to prepare, 427 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 3: and the Chiefs defense is legitimately one of the worst 428 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: the NFL defending play action passing. So I think the 429 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,640 Speaker 3: forty nine Ers are gonna have a ton of success 430 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 3: early on. And it's not just running the ball, which 431 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 3: I think they'll have success doing, but I think they'll 432 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 3: have a great script. I think they'll have some great 433 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 3: play action passing. I think they lot some trick plays 434 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 3: with Debo, and I don't think that the stage is 435 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 3: going to be too big for Prety early on. So 436 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 3: I think the forty nine ers offense will have success early. 437 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 3: The Chiefs offense, I agree with you. They made some 438 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 3: changes and they're given more. You know, Mahomes is making 439 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 3: more changes up at the line of scrimmage. They're kind 440 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: of they kind of cut off all the fat and 441 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 3: just you know, anything that was holding them back. They're like, 442 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 3: all right, let's just focus on you know, these three guys, 443 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 3: and that's like who they're targeting. But the offense still 444 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 3: has some issues, like the tackles are still a liability 445 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 3: and you know, Chase Young, by the way, looked horrendous 446 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 3: in the NFC Championship game. We'll see if he shows 447 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 3: up here. But so there's still some issues on it. 448 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 3: It's not it's still not an electric passing attack. We'll 449 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 3: talk about some of the MVP candidates but the Chiefs 450 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 3: offense will have some success. But I here's where I 451 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 3: agree with you, and because because you have to keep 452 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 3: in mind, they played the Dolphins with no they had 453 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 3: no defensive line and no linebackers. They played the Bills 454 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: who were starting aj Klein, they run out of linebackers, 455 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 3: they were doing with defensive back injuries. And then you 456 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 3: know the Ravens they had those first two drug and 457 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 3: then did nothing. So I agree the offense is trending 458 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 3: in the right direction, but there are still some issues 459 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 3: under the hood. But how I see this game playing 460 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 3: out is, so I make the line like two eight 461 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 3: to nine. I didn't adjust the Chiefs as much as 462 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 3: I thought, Yeah, I mean, just the bizarre game plan 463 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 3: from the Ravens. So but where I think I think 464 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: the Chiefs are like the most likely how I see 465 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 3: this game playing out is but I basically should should 466 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 3: go through. I agree. I think that what the forty 467 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 3: nine ers do is they play a lot of quarters 468 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 3: cover three and obviously every defense plays every defense but 469 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 3: every type of coverage, but for the most part, that's 470 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 3: what they'll play. You saw that. You know, they're kind 471 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 3: of similar to the Texans Demico Ryans Robert Sala and 472 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 3: the Jets similar coverage percentages. We saw what Mahomes did 473 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 3: for what it's worth in twenty twenty two against the 474 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 3: Demico Ryans defense. I think they he went to San 475 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: fre They put up like forty four. 476 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was second half. 477 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 3: So zoning Mahomes is not a great option. But I 478 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 3: think that's when the forty nine Ers defense is at 479 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 3: its best and you gotta have Chase Young and Chasing 480 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: has to show up here where you put artist set 481 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 3: back at defensive end. You have to take advantage of 482 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 3: these chiefs tackles. I'll be interesting to see what they 483 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 3: do there. But the forty nine Ers don't really make 484 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 3: any other adjustm People talk about the adjustments that Steve 485 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,239 Speaker 3: Wilke's made in the NFCY Championship game. The only thing 486 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: he did is just play more man, and they were like, oh, 487 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: it's brilliant. The Lions had so many opportunities to score 488 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 3: open guys James and Williams dropped that pass, so like 489 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 3: that's their only adjustment. They're always going to have a 490 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 3: four man front. Their linebackers were really good. Are always 491 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: going to play a little back, which makes them a 492 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 3: little bit more vulnerable to the run, but they can 493 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 3: make some plays elsewhere and then that's their only adjustment. 494 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 3: So the forty nine ers at the half, So what 495 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 3: can happen in the second half of this game? You 496 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 3: have Spagnola who can make significantly better adjustments schematically than Wilkes, 497 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 3: because I just don't. And one of the more interesting 498 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 3: storylines is will Spagnola blitz I don't think he actually 499 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 3: will as much as he's done before. Perty's been great 500 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 3: against the blitz and we'll see if Spagnola, but he's 501 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 3: still young. It's in the Super Bowl, so I'm really 502 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 3: curious to see what the blitz right is going to 503 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 3: be here. Whatever happens, Spagnola is gonna have time to adjust, right, 504 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 3: So he's gonna try some things out, and then the 505 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 3: second half he can make his adjustments. And this is 506 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 3: the Chiefs defense that has allowed fewer than four points 507 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 3: over their last eight games in the second half on average. 508 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: I mean, that's incredible. So the defensive adjustments have been amazing. Also, 509 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: special teams, you got a big kick at the end 510 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: of this game. You're gonna trust Bucker over Moody. You know, 511 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 3: every day of the week, twice on Sunday. And then 512 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 3: you have Mahomes, one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. 513 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 3: You know, if he has to come back, if he 514 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 3: has the ball late down, if he needs to have 515 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 3: a late drive, flip that with Party. He's been great. 516 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: But you would obviously trust Mahomes a lot more in 517 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter coming from behind than Perty, who's still 518 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 3: is extremely inexperience. So all three of those factors, special teams, 519 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 3: defensive adjustments, Mahomes fourth quarter. I think that's major advantage 520 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 3: to the Chiefs. So I think that the forty nine ers, 521 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 3: from just a numbers perspective, I show a little value 522 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 3: and I think that they'll they have you know, they 523 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 3: don't have to worry about all those things in the 524 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 3: first half. And I think that they're going to score early. 525 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 3: They're going to have their script's going to be great. 526 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 3: They've been one of the best first quarter offenses in 527 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 3: the NFL off season. They're going to be able to 528 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 3: run it. I think what the Ravens did kind of 529 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 3: maybe works in their favor, right, Like the Niners are 530 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 3: going to be like, all right, we saw what they did. 531 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 3: I think it may will probably make them run throw 532 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: a play action more early, but then the Chiefs are 533 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 3: going to be able to adjust. The Chiefs are also 534 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 3: be able to adjust on offense, and I think that's 535 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 3: where their advantage comes in is in the second half. 536 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 3: So I think the Niners, and then look if the 537 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 3: Niners make that adjustment to get out of a man 538 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 3: I don't think in this particular matchup, for all the 539 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 3: reasons that you mentioned, will end up as a good thing. 540 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 3: Even though Mahomes rips apart zones. I just don't trust 541 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 3: this forty nine Ers defense in man coverage, especially if 542 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 3: Chase Young plays the way that he doesn't, and then 543 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 3: that just opens up Mahomes running even more on like 544 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: third and longs. And so from a numbers perspective, from 545 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 3: what I think that this forty nine Ers offense will 546 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 3: do early, I like the Niners in the first half, 547 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 3: but I don't hate your chief bet because it's Mahomes 548 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 3: is a dog. But we said it all the time. 549 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 3: But it's the adjustments, the special teams, the defensive schematic 550 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 3: changes that Spagnola can make that Wilks just doesn't. It 551 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 3: doesn't have that same bag. So I kind of making 552 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 3: a case for the Chiefs a full game more than 553 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 3: the Niners first half. But I do show value in 554 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 3: the number. This is a team that I Power rated 555 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 3: number one by a wide margin all season up until 556 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 3: the Ravens late surge, and significantly better than the Chiefs. Well, 557 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 3: if this game was a month and a half ago, 558 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 3: the spread probably is but it would have been five 559 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 3: and a half sick. 560 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: Yeah from a power protector, absolutely yeah. 561 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I like the Niners first half money line. 562 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 3: I'll be looking for a chance to bet the Chiefs 563 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 3: live if they go down. I should mention with some 564 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 3: of the props, which we'll get into and the rest 565 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 3: of the six pack. The public is going to have 566 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 3: a say in the Super Bowl. You know super Bowls 567 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 3: in Vegas. It's going to be a crazy handle. If 568 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 3: you like, for example, Travis Kelcey overyards, I bet it now. 569 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 3: If you like Travis Kelcey underyards, wait correct me if 570 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 3: I'm wrong, But it's those popular player props, especially for 571 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. They're not going down. Yeah, you can 572 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 3: get if you want to bet the under weight until 573 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 3: game time. There's only going to be more money on 574 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 3: Kelsey over McCaffrey. Over Sure that you're thinking about the 575 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 3: timing of your bets. So I just wanted to throw 576 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 3: that out there as kind of a general Super Bowl 577 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 3: betting tip. 578 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the Niners best shot here is going 579 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 2: up early because you don't want to have to do 580 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: it a third time. Right, You've gone down twice in 581 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: the playoffs. We know the numbers were not favorable at all. 582 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 2: I think, what are they Shanahan team had never come back, 583 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: went down at the half by a certain amount of 584 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 2: points or something like that, So this is not what Yeah, 585 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 2: you don't want to get into this. You don't want 586 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,959 Speaker 2: to test fait a third time. So I think the 587 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: emphasis is going to be on starting past last year. 588 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 2: I was at that game, the Super Bowl, and I 589 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: saw the Chiefs down what was it, twenty four to 590 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 2: fourteen at the half they got lit up. I do 591 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 2: think there are some advantages, you know, to your bet 592 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 2: there with the with the Niners, and that's just kind 593 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: of how they look to play, you know, great script 594 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: score last in the first half. That's what the Niners do. 595 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 3: So where are you going for your second pick? 596 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 2: So for my second pick, the third overall all of 597 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl fifty eight Sunday six pack, I'm going 598 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes under half an interception, aka Mahomes not to 599 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 2: throw a pick. And this is another one that I 600 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 2: think if you're not really deep diving into some of 601 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 2: the numbers, and you're not paying attention to what's been 602 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 2: happening of weight and just how the strategy is shifting 603 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 2: and the personnel is shifting, you wouldn't see much value 604 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 2: on this because again, Mahomes through fourteen ticks this year. 605 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: You know, it's been I think, ye his worst year 606 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 2: in terms of throwing interceptions. But remember half of the 607 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 2: Chiefs interception You remove seven interceptions just by not playing 608 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: hardman Tony more Ross. Right, But then you start just 609 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 2: looking at okay, well, what makes you likely to throw 610 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 2: an interception? Well, one of those things. 611 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 3: All the triple coverage in the end zone. 612 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right. And again Mahomes, playing some of the 613 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 2: best ball of his life, has not had a turnover 614 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 2: worthy play in each of the last four games, the 615 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 2: longest stretch of his career that spans one hundred and 616 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 2: forty seven dropbacks one hundred and thirty two pass attempts. 617 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 2: He hasn't thrown a pick in his last six postseason games. 618 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 2: He's been really you know, careful about that. He's been 619 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 2: he's been vocal about kind of talking about the lessons 620 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 2: he's learned from, you know, his his struggles in you know, 621 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: some of the earlier postseasons that he did throw two 622 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 2: picks in that first Super Bowl he was ever in 623 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: against the forty nine ers, and you know, that's that 624 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,719 Speaker 2: kind of you know, that didn't help, obviously, But he 625 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: also talks a lot about that Bucks game where you know, 626 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: they just weren't really prepared to deal with with the 627 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 2: pressure and whatnot. So that's why I think, you know, 628 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: it is significant that the Niners run defense has been 629 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: weak because I do think Mahomes, this current Mahomes is 630 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 2: more willing to check in the run plays, is more 631 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: willing to take checkdowns. He knows he has a defense 632 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 2: behind him. But also Patrick mahomes average up to target 633 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 2: tipped under seven this year. That's the lowest of his career. 634 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: You know, the deeper you're throwing, the more you're gonna 635 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 2: throw picks. And just now, the way this offense is 636 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 2: set up, you have Kelsey over eighty percent catch rate. 637 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 2: He's gonna get a ton of targets, most often, most 638 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 2: likely gonna be the first read in almost every pass. 639 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 2: Rashid Rice second read almost every pass. He's also over 640 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 2: eighty percent catch rate. Also, a guy that you're targeting 641 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 2: usually within you know, five to ten yards of the 642 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 2: line of line of scrimmage. Then the guys that can 643 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 2: beat man coverage on the outside. You know, it's not 644 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 2: like you're throwing into the double coverage or you're throwing 645 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 2: you know, to Watson or mvs when there's a safety 646 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 2: over the top. You know, Mahomes now he's seeing the 647 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 2: field so well, he's only throws of those guys if 648 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: it's one on one, you don't you don't usually get 649 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 2: a lot of picks when you're just in man one 650 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 2: on one, So not was worried about those guys. You know, 651 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 2: obviously you could get a tip ball, you could get 652 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 2: a drop, But just the way Mahomes playing, the way 653 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 2: they're targeting these guys, Uh, it just doesn't lend itself 654 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 2: to him throwing a pick and just looking at the numbers. 655 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 2: You know, for his career, he's throwing a pick in 656 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 2: exactly half of his regular season games. In the playoffs, 657 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 2: he's only throwing a pick in four of seventeen, just 658 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 2: twenty four percent. And remember competition, especially you know, defensively 659 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 2: goes up in the postseason, so it's playing against better defenses, 660 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 2: throwing fewer picks. And now you essentially, like you said, 661 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 2: trim the fat, you're facing a team that you might 662 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 2: even run a little more than usual. Last Super Bowl, 663 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: you know, he's put up thirty eight points and I 664 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 2: think mahomess what twenty one or twenty seven for a 665 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 2: buck eighty two? Like it? Just you know, the volume 666 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 2: doesn't always have to be there for Mahomes. So I 667 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 2: think you have a good shot at him. He's been 668 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 2: He's just he said, he's been making a point, just 669 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 2: be really careful because he knows he has this his 670 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 2: defense now. So I just think all those different factors 671 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 2: kind of add up to Mahomes playing another queen games. 672 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 2: So give me Mahomes under half an interception. 673 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 3: All right, good stuff there. I like it, and hopefully, 674 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 3: like I said, he just doesn't. I'm throwing the triple 675 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 3: coverage to ruin the bet like last week, but for 676 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 3: my second pick and the fourth overall the Super Bowl 677 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 3: Sunday six pack, I'm going with Elijah Mitchell under one 678 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 3: and a half rush attempts. This is pretty straightforward. You 679 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 3: might look and say, oh, you had four carries last week, 680 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 3: four carries for seven months. Well, yeah, they came at 681 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 3: the very end and McCaffrey went out with a neck injury. 682 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 3: Before then, McCaffrey had taken one hundred percent of the 683 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 3: running back snaps. I expect that to continue again. Maybe 684 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 3: they give him one if, like McCaffrey is completely gassed. 685 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't see it like I think 686 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 3: that you get you know, maybe use check gets one 687 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 3: for like a short yardage. You want to power him 688 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 3: up there, and then I think you're gonna have You're 689 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 3: gonna have Deebo Samuel, He's gonna get some carries as well. 690 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 3: He's gonna get a percentage of the rush workload. I 691 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 3: think that this is now, it's the last game of 692 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,879 Speaker 3: the season, and yeah, they were already doing this before 693 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 3: mccafery went out at injury. McCaffrey's your workhorse, He's who 694 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 3: got you here. Andy, You're gonna get all the running 695 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 3: back carries. So I think that this number should be 696 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 3: one flight, shouldn't be one and a half. I don't 697 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 3: think he gets a carry, so hopefully he gets a snap, 698 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: which is the only caveat here, But I expect McCaffrey 699 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 3: to get every running back snap. You're the projector of 700 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:47,720 Speaker 3: this and the player party. 701 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: You do agree here. 702 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 2: So we have a props tool at Action Labs, and 703 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 2: I think for both me and our guy Sean curnin 704 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 2: the odds maker, that's coming up, as you know, the 705 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: biggest edge among Super Bowl props. And it's you know, 706 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 2: it's not every proper market like that's in the tool. 707 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 2: It's you know, the main you know, rushing, receiving, attempts, 708 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 2: yards and all that stuff. But uh, you know, for 709 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 2: the most part, especially as we record this, you know, 710 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,320 Speaker 2: the week before the Super Bowl, most of the player 711 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 2: you know, player props they're out now, uh, you know, 712 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 2: the usual normal just median projection props or whatever. They're 713 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 2: pretty sharp by the market. Uh, this one I do 714 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,919 Speaker 2: think has value because again, as you broke down, they're 715 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 2: they're not going to give Mitchell snaps unless McCaffrey gets hurt. 716 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 2: Now there is you know about it. That's that's what 717 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 2: you're better than two. 718 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're running on McCaffrey leaving the game of an 719 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 3: injury or getting hurt at any point. 720 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that that's usually and I do factor that 721 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 2: into my projectors, and I still have Mitchell projective for 722 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 2: about one Carrie flat, you know, and that's you know, 723 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: that's that's just literally factoring in, you know, things like 724 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 2: what happened last week where McCaffrey goes down literally if 725 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 2: he if he just makes it one more play, or 726 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 2: even probably if he doesn't have that good of a 727 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 2: run because you know, I think he ran like fifty 728 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 2: yards and set them sets them up like first and goals, 729 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 2: so you know they're at that point they're all right, 730 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 2: we got to punch it in here. Uh but yeah, 731 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 2: he you know, that's. 732 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 3: Not that's every prop. There's always an injury rescue better you're. 733 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 2: Just usually getting a little bit of that built in 734 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 2: edge for injuries. But yeah, I agree. I think I 735 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 2: think the biggest challenge here is just him to get 736 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 2: a snap. So hopefully for you uh, San Francisco does 737 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,399 Speaker 2: find a way to either win the game, because then 738 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: he would probably be in on the kneil downs, although 739 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 2: if it's the Super Bowl game ending neil down, they 740 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,280 Speaker 2: probably start out McCaffrey out. There's a lot of ways 741 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 2: that this could still hit and worse things that could 742 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 2: happen is you just get no action. But I do 743 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 2: think there is an edgure this. And I'll also say, 744 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,760 Speaker 2: you know, so you know, kind of an interesting cariat, 745 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 2: you know, and factor in this game is Deebo Samuel 746 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 2: and how he's used because in eight of eleven postseason 747 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 2: games for Deebo, he's been under fifty receiving yards, but 748 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 2: he's had you know, thirty five plus rushing yards in 749 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 2: those games. Now twice he's had I think just a 750 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 2: couple of carries to get there, but other two times 751 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: he had ten, you know, ten carries. So there's also 752 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 2: a chance that even if McCaffrey gets gassed or hurt, 753 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 2: most important game of the year, Deebo Samuel might very 754 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 2: well be the backup running back. Do you even have 755 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 2: some outs here even if McCaffrey does, you know, have 756 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 2: to have to leave for a couple of players or 757 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 2: something like that. And by the way, we'll have a 758 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 2: full proper Palooza episode as we do every year right 759 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 2: here on this channel. Me Kerner will be on that 760 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,399 Speaker 2: as well. That'll come out later this week, so look 761 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 2: out for that. But yeah, I do like I like 762 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 2: the Mitchell under a lot this podcast is proudly presented 763 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 2: by Bett MGM. Used bonus code action act io N 764 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 2: when signing up to get one hundred and fifty eight 765 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 2: dollars in bonus bets when you bet five dollars for 766 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 2: new users in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, 767 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 2: New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming. 768 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 2: Terms and conditions of probably must be twenty one year older. 769 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 2: Game ling problem call one eight hundred gambler. 770 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 3: Before we get to your final pick, any thoughts on 771 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 3: the quick thoughts on the total? I'm right around forty eight. 772 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 3: You know, it's a fast track the way that I 773 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 3: see the game plan out Sanford fast start, Kansas City adjusts, 774 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 3: and then again they're going to have a successful second half. 775 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 3: Kansas City maybe slower start. It depends on how much 776 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 3: they're down. Like so, the total's tough for me to 777 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 3: see how this game plays out. If I had the 778 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: bet the total, I'd probably go over, but I don't 779 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 3: show that much of an edge. Do you have any 780 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 3: thoughts on the total for anyone looking to bet it? 781 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would lean over as well, but I agree 782 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 2: it's it's not a major edge because but the games. 783 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: Are gonna be slow. The game's gonna be forty nine 784 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 3: ers are slow, and I think that they're gonna run 785 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 3: a lot, So like the clock is going to go 786 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 3: and I expect the Chiefs to also run a bunch, 787 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 3: So I like the game is not gonna the game 788 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 3: is going to go pretty quick, for as quick as 789 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 3: the super Bowl can go. 790 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, and remember, you know, talking about Mahomes and he's 791 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: last week against the best pass defense in the league. 792 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 2: He completed thirty of thirty nine passes seventy seven percent. 793 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 2: Second straight week he was you know, seventy percent or 794 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 2: higher in completions, and so that a lot of times 795 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 2: that's not going to stop the cock either. And you 796 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 2: know you're throwing short things like that and. 797 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 3: That that kind of everything, Well everything was in then 798 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 3: five yards. 799 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, so then that'll go into my next pick. But yeah, 800 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: I think the I would lean over also because again 801 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 2: I think the market is still a little bit undervaluing 802 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 2: the Chiefs offense, you know, and some of the changes 803 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 2: that that it's made, and you just have two good 804 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: offenses on a fast track. And you know, like I 805 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 2: think when you look at like if you were just 806 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 2: let's say, simulating not just this game, but like the 807 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 2: entire season over, you know, a ten thousand times, I 808 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 2: think this total, like how it's ended up at forty 809 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 2: seven and forty seven and a half, Like that's squeezing 810 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 2: it to the low end, you know, like it's yeah, yeah, 811 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 2: right right, it's yeah, exactly, it's close. It's closer. Yeah, 812 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 2: it's closer to the tail. So you're not you're not 813 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 2: getting much lower than that. When you're talking about two 814 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 2: of the best offenses in football, and I know the 815 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 2: defenses are great as well, but you know, offense still 816 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 2: is gonna win. Uh, you know, two of the greatest 817 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 2: defenses too, I mean two of the greatest offenses, one 818 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,839 Speaker 2: of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, another two great 819 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 2: offensive mines at at you know, running calling the plays 820 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 2: and remember the Chiefs. Yeah, they've been elite second half defensively, 821 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 2: and that's you know, it's one of the reasons you 822 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 2: like the first half spread. But I think it's something 823 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 2: like they've scored on now like nine straight opening drives 824 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 2: in the postseason, so you can still get you know, 825 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 2: enough points stuff on the board early on to get 826 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 2: it there, and then if Mahomes is down, I mean, 827 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 2: you trust him to to put points on the board 828 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 2: even if Kansas City's defense isn't a wile on points. 829 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, I would lean over as well, But I 830 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 2: do agree there are you know it's there are some 831 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 2: things you know, running wise and just you know that 832 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 2: game flow wise that could lead to and under. But 833 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 2: if I had to do it, I'll go over. 834 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,919 Speaker 3: But where are you going for your third and final pick. 835 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 2: For my third and final pick fifth overall of the 836 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 2: Super Bowl fifty eight six pack, I am going with 837 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,760 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs over nineteen and a half first downs, 838 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 2: And I mentioned, you know, a lot of things we've 839 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 2: talked about up until's point kind of lead me to 840 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 2: this play, which is number one, you have Mahomes growing shorter, 841 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 2: not as many explosives, so that's just naturally gonna lead 842 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 2: to longer drives, more first downs rather than you know, 843 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: picking it up in chunks. Now, especially now you know 844 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 2: you have hyper efficient underneath receiving options. You also are 845 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 2: facing a run defense that can be vulnerable, So a 846 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 2: lot of things kind of playing into that. And if 847 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 2: you just look at the numbers overall this season, which 848 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 2: again you know, there's a lot of they're not going 849 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 2: to be They're not going to hold up because I 850 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 2: think the Chiefs offense is better now there's just a 851 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: lot of noise. But Kansas City, you know, even if 852 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 2: you just look at the take the numbers for what 853 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 2: they are hit twenty first downs in twelve of the 854 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 2: nineteen Mahomes starts sixty three percent, and San Francisco, as 855 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,879 Speaker 2: good as its defense was excluding Week eighteen when guys 856 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 2: were resting, San Francisco allowed twenty or more first downs 857 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 2: fifty six percent of the time, including both postseason games. 858 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 2: So I think this is a very attainable number for 859 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 2: the Chiefs. Just this is this is how Mahomes is playing. 860 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 2: He's more deliberately willing to take checkdowns. He could also 861 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 2: get you know, an underrated factor is Mahomes excellent scrambler 862 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 2: and just does it a lot more in the playoffs, 863 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 2: so he could also get some of those you know, 864 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 2: oh my god, he should not convert this first down. 865 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 2: They should have punted. Type of rushing first down from 866 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 2: Mahomes that you don't necessarily get as much of in 867 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:27,800 Speaker 2: the regular season, So I like the Chiefs over nineteen 868 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:28,840 Speaker 2: and a half first downs. 869 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 3: Like it for my third pick in the sixth overall 870 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 3: of the Super Bowl Sunday six pack, I'm going we 871 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 3: gotta get a fun one in here. I'm gonna give 872 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 3: a fun one for the my final pick of the season, 873 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 3: and then I'll give a real one also that I'm betting. 874 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 3: But we're gonna go over forty seven and a half 875 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,760 Speaker 3: yards for the longest field goal. This at the very minimum, 876 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 3: if all your bets are on fire, from the anthem 877 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 3: to the coin toss to the whatever you're betting early 878 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,360 Speaker 3: and this one at least, you will be alive until 879 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 3: the very end. Depending on how the game goes, you 880 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 3: could always hit this in the final minute. But other 881 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 3: than that, I think these it's great. It's a great 882 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 3: kicking stadium. You have altitude, fast track, no conditions, you 883 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 3: have two kickers with huge legs, two coaches who kind 884 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 3: of get a little bit too conservative at times in 885 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 3: that range, and Bucker could hit from like sixty two 886 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 3: in these conditions, and Moody has a huge leg. So 887 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 3: a fun one that I do like and did bet 888 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 3: over forty seven and a half and then the real one. 889 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 3: If you're looking for one with more analysis, that won't 890 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 3: be included. But I did bet under sacks for Purty 891 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 3: under two and a half sacks, which were what it's 892 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 3: about to hit fourteen to eighteen times for the night Ers. No, 893 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 3: you could say, well, the Chiefs had what fifty seven 894 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 3: sacks and one two with the Ravens and number of sacks, 895 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 3: but just how I see this game playing out, I 896 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 3: think that I was gonna use a ton of faction, 897 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 3: run a lot. I don't think the Chiefs are going 898 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 3: to blitz as much. So I think that the way 899 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 3: that Spagnola is going to play this heart he's been 900 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 3: so good against the blitz, I think that they're going 901 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 3: to play more of the run and then a more coverage, 902 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 3: which is something that they haven't done, so that kind 903 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,800 Speaker 3: of inflates their their blitz numbers. And then you know 904 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,280 Speaker 3: a Mena who is out as well, so and Party's 905 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 3: He's I think, trusting his legs more to run now, 906 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 3: which he hasn't done at times this year. So if 907 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: he sees pressure, he's now it seems like he's just 908 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 3: more willing to get out and run and scramble. So yeah, 909 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 3: we're gonna go. I did bet under two and a 910 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 3: half sacks, but for the official last pick of the 911 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 3: season for the six Pack will go over forty seven 912 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 3: and a half yards. So it'll be one of those 913 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 3: fun sweats where someone's lining up for like a fifty 914 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 3: two yarder and you're like, oh man, this this is 915 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 3: going to decide my bet if Moody hits the post 916 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 3: or not. So yeah, final pick of the year over 917 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,839 Speaker 3: forty seven and a half longest field goal. 918 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. So I like you talked about the field goal 919 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 2: off offline, and I do like it because I do 920 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 2: think Andy Reid is gonna be that's just what they do, 921 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 2: you know, is as good as Mahomes, and that offense 922 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 2: is uh he's usually gonna take the points. I think 923 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 2: if you get into that shanty and does it two, 924 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 2: I think he's you know a little bit more likely 925 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 2: to maybe eskew it, just because he's always said, you know, 926 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 2: we are usually the better team, uh so we don't 927 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: have to take a lot of risks, we don't have 928 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 2: to fake punt and do all that stuff. Maybe he 929 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 2: looks at things differently against against Mahomes, especially depending on 930 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 2: the game. Flogos but also Moody has missed five times 931 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,800 Speaker 2: under fifty, so maybe, you know, maybe that plays into it. 932 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 2: But if there's ever like you know, a lot of 933 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: those kicks, I remember one came and get in the weather. 934 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 2: A couple of them came in the weather. So uh, Now, 935 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 2: like you said, altitude indoors, uh, Moody even could get 936 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 2: his you know, get stuff together. And then as far 937 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 2: as the sacks, I think I have Kansas City at 938 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 2: like two point three. So yeah, I am a to 939 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,720 Speaker 2: under this, especially when you factor in you know, median 940 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 2: is usually lower than the you know, than the projection 941 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 2: for that kind of thing, because obviously can't be two 942 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 2: point three, it can only be two or three lean 943 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 2: that way as well. I'm I mean, it's just tough 944 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 2: to know exactly what party's gonna do. We just haven't 945 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 2: seen him on the stage before. But I do agree 946 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 2: he did look he did look like he he was 947 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,440 Speaker 2: a little more willing to take off, especially in that 948 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 2: game in the second half against against Detroit. Well, we'll 949 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 2: talk some so we'll talk some long shots, some touchdowns, 950 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 2: some MVP. We usually do that as tradition at the 951 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,840 Speaker 2: end of the season for the Super Bowl. But let 952 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 2: me just recap the six pack. So I have the 953 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 2: Chiefs plus two Mahomes under half an interception and the 954 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:46,800 Speaker 2: Chiefs over nineteen and a half first downs and stuck. 955 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 2: You have the Niners first half money line minus won 956 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 2: twenty five at bet MGM, the Elijah Mitchell under one 957 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 2: and a half carries, and longest field goal for either 958 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:04,800 Speaker 2: team over forty seven and a half. Any notice to 959 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:06,800 Speaker 2: any of the you know your limits to where you 960 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 2: bet those numbers, like the first half money line, it's 961 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 2: one twenty five right now, They're a number where you're saying, okay, 962 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 2: forget it. 963 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 3: I wouldn't go high. I wouldn't go yeah, I wouldn't 964 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 3: go higher than that and chop around. I think that 965 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 3: you can find a better number than that. That's probably 966 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 3: the max field goal. I wouldn't go higher than forty eight. 967 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,399 Speaker 3: I'll tell you that. Mitchell, just get it above one 968 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 3: and like play it to like I would play it to, 969 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 3: like minus one. I would play it to even like 970 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 3: minus one. Fifty would be fine. 971 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 2: Yeah for me, you know che I mean really, Chiefs 972 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:41,799 Speaker 2: is a dog. I mean at this, I mean you'd 973 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 2: like the two or better just because you know there's 974 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:47,560 Speaker 2: a chance that the Chiefs maybe down eight, and you 975 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 2: know they don't go for two a lot and either 976 00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 2: team does. But you may be in a situation where 977 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 2: my Homes gets you to the doorstep, and you know, 978 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 2: even if something goes wrong, you could still at least push. 979 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,439 Speaker 2: But still, like, I think the Chiefs win this game. 980 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 2: So I don't mind the Chiefs as anywhere as a 981 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 2: dog Mahomes underpicks. It's pretty much even right. 982 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 3: Now as well, wait, if you're betting the Chiefs, like 983 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 3: you never know, so like you know, maybe it goes three. 984 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 3: I don't think it does, but you can watch the 985 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 3: market and you know, if it starts to come down 986 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 3: at some of the Sharper books closer to the game 987 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 3: time and like somewhere flashes a one and a half, 988 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,319 Speaker 3: then you know for sure it's not going to go up. 989 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 3: Then you hit your two. So I don't think that 990 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 3: it's a bad idea that if you have one of 991 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 3: that the Chiefs just to wait, because who knows, maybe 992 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 3: maybe it does go to three. 993 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 2: I have, you know, some already on the Chiefs, but 994 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 2: you haven't seen it come through on the app yet 995 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,959 Speaker 2: because I'm waiting, you know, to place my biggest bet. Also, 996 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 2: did you see where see where the line goes as well? Yeah, 997 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 2: and yeah for Mahomes, I mean I talked about it 998 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:51,879 Speaker 2: only happened twenty four percent of the time he's trying 999 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,320 Speaker 2: to pick in the postseason. Interception numbers are you know, 1000 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:59,839 Speaker 2: they're notoriously just kind of volatile. But I think if 1001 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 2: you're getting this same thing, like up to minus one fifty, 1002 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:05,239 Speaker 2: you know, sixty forty shot, I think that's that's a 1003 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 2: fair h you know, projection for him to go under. 1004 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,319 Speaker 2: And in the first downs, I really like it at 1005 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 2: nineteen and a half. Even if you start getting juiced 1006 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,319 Speaker 2: up at twenty and a half, it's a little more 1007 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 2: if you you know, if you get an even money, fine, 1008 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 2: but I think nineteen you really want to get that 1009 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 2: over nineteen and a half for that one. So that's 1010 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 2: that's our super Bowl fifty eight six pack. We'll do 1011 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 2: long shots, touchdowns, all that stuff, but first let's do 1012 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl fifty eight and final coaches, pep talk. 1013 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 2: You keep playing the way you're playing, We're gonna get 1014 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 2: a half feed again to ninth and it stopped right now. 1015 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 2: We're going to actor Charlie Day the twenty seventeen film 1016 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 2: Fifth Fight, and we'll dedicate it to h Brock. Perty guys. 1017 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 2: You know, look, you try to be a nice guy 1018 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,360 Speaker 2: right and treat everyone with respect, but you don't get it. 1019 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 2: You don't get get it back in return. You know why, 1020 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 2: because nice guys they finished last Yeah, and you're gonna say, hey, 1021 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 2: I'm a nice guy, I'm doing okay, and the world 1022 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 2: is gonna un sip his pants, pull them down and 1023 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 2: take a giant fucking shit all over you, guys. I 1024 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 2: just can't wait, Guys, I cannot win. So best of 1025 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 2: luck to the Niners in the first half at least, 1026 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 2: and let's talk some long shot, some MVP touchdowns, all 1027 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:29,360 Speaker 2: that stuff. 1028 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 3: I am betting overtime because my pal and your pal, 1029 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 3: Nick Giffon, the overtime modeler, tells me that there's actually 1030 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 3: value in this number in the Super Bowl good overtime. 1031 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 3: So I'm betting that twelve thirteen to one. I don't 1032 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,720 Speaker 3: know why you'd have to. I'll have that and tweet 1033 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 3: about why there's value and what his true odds are. 1034 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 2: I mean, part of it is, part of it. Part 1035 00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:54,760 Speaker 2: of it is just like you said, my homes always 1036 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 2: finds a way to come back and even if he's 1037 00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 2: down and it's just a two point spread, so you're 1038 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,400 Speaker 2: naturally you're gonna have But I thought. 1039 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 3: That there would be no value in that, like it 1040 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 3: would if it's a Super Bowl, like they would have 1041 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 3: a price, right, But who am for MVP? You know? 1042 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 3: So you look back at the MVPs over the past 1043 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,439 Speaker 3: what fifteen years, like you have you have a couple 1044 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 3: of random defenders that win it, right, Malcolm Smith von Miller. 1045 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,080 Speaker 3: Those are hard to predict, Like if you want to 1046 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 3: throw you literally want to take a dartboard out and 1047 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 3: put all the defenders' names on there and throw it 1048 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 3: at one for fun. Fine, because like it's hard for 1049 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,360 Speaker 3: me to see a defender. So no, not considering any defenders. 1050 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 1: Now. 1051 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 3: The only other players besides quarterbacks who have won it 1052 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 3: is when a wide receiver goes off what s Antonio 1053 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 3: Holmes had nine for one thirty one and a touchdown, 1054 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 3: Hyn's Ward. You have Julian Edelman, Cooper Cup. When these 1055 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 3: guys go off and usually get multiple touchdowns. So you know, 1056 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 3: my thoughts were the two ones that stick out are 1057 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 3: obviously Deebo Samuel, But I don't see a lot of 1058 00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:01,400 Speaker 3: value in him. I could see Rice potentially just because 1059 00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 3: he has I think he's gonna have favorable matchups where 1060 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,839 Speaker 3: he lines up San Francisco's really good at covering tight ends. 1061 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 3: I know Kelsey always goes off, but if they just 1062 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,799 Speaker 3: have extra focus on him and shut him down, I mean, 1063 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 3: there's a potential where what did Rice have last week? 1064 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 3: He had eight catches. There's a potential that Rice has 1065 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,840 Speaker 3: like ten catches. So they just give it to Mahomes 1066 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 3: like you had when the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. 1067 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 3: You had a Damian Williams had three touchdowns, Yeah, and 1068 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 3: didn't win it. So are they just it if the 1069 00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 3: Chiefs win, no matter who, what anyone does is it 1070 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:35,320 Speaker 3: doesn't go to Mahomes. 1071 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1072 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 2: I have some thoughts on that. I have some thoughts 1073 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 2: on that. So let me jump in real quick and 1074 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 2: I'll let you continue. But so I think Rice is 1075 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 2: actually guy I was going to talk about too, because 1076 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 2: he's yeah fifty to one, and he has similar projection 1077 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,399 Speaker 2: in catches yards to Kelsey, as you mentioned. The only 1078 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 2: thing is, you know Kelsey has scored in eight of 1079 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 2: the last nine playoff games, thirteen of seventeen overall, Homes. 1080 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 2: Rice does it have the touchdown equity this year as much? 1081 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 2: But you're talking about one game. Anything can happen, So 1082 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:10,560 Speaker 2: love Rice and but but here's the thing why I think. 1083 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,560 Speaker 3: Kelsey's gonna have to deal with those linebackers. 1084 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 2: I like Kelsey two for what his words. Here's why 1085 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 2: I think there's kind of some hidden value on even 1086 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 2: if you think the Chiefs are gonna win, and listen, 1087 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 2: I think Patrick Mahomes is just looking for like the 1088 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 2: most likely got to win. I still think it's Patrick Mahomes. 1089 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 2: But look at what happened in the past when you 1090 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 2: mentioned those wide receivers, right, and there's all this talk. 1091 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 3: Because the quarterback already won it. 1092 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 2: So there's been all this talk, Right, Mahomes is the 1093 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 2: new Brady very Well might maybe? So if you look 1094 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 2: at Brady's career, he won two he won his the 1095 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,840 Speaker 2: first two Super Rols, he won, he won the third 1096 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 2: time he on Branch, then he wins two more and 1097 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 2: then the third time Edelman. So if there is if 1098 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 2: t and right, there could be some fatigue. If there's fatigue, 1099 00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,479 Speaker 2: and listen, we you know people are I've been writing 1100 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 2: Kelsey off all year and he's all he's done is 1101 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 2: disprove all that and pretty much does that every postseason. 1102 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 2: So I'm I still think he's a good bet and 1103 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:11,439 Speaker 2: the market is, you know, fairly in check Brame, He's 1104 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 2: twelve to one, so I like him as well. But 1105 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: I think both of those guys because of the way 1106 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 2: the Chiefs are playing now, where they're essentially targeting two 1107 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 2: guys high volume and everyone else is just when it 1108 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,479 Speaker 2: makes sense, you're gonna you're gonna have a good chance 1109 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 2: of Kelsey and Rice both getting you know, north of 1110 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 2: five catches, you know, six, seven, eight, nine catches at 1111 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 2: least one of them. And maybe there's something to the 1112 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 2: voter fatigue now. 1113 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 3: But you're getting a much better price with price, and 1114 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:40,880 Speaker 3: I think it has a better matchup. So like that's 1115 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 3: the determining factor for me. 1116 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 2: The reason I still think Mahomes should be the odds 1117 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 2: on favorite. I think Ken Sick's real undervalued obviously, But 1118 00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: what does it talk this Super Bowl? Travis Kelcey, Taylor Swift, 1119 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 2: Is Kelsey gonna retire? Is he loshed? Just Kelsey Kelsey 1120 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,479 Speaker 2: Kelsey Kelsey Kelsey? And then what's the other talking point, 1121 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 2: Rod Perry, He's out a game manager. He's actually really good, 1122 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 2: you know. So it's like Kelsey Purty, Kelsey Purty, Patrick 1123 00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 2: Mahomes best football player on the planet. He might have 1124 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 2: something to say, and he might he can never say 1125 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 2: it out loud because he's just not that type of guy. 1126 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 2: But you best believe he's he's gonna be like, oh, 1127 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:17,920 Speaker 2: you know, like the real MVP is here. So I 1128 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 2: think he's gonna show out very well. They just forced voters' hands, 1129 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 2: you know, if the Chiefs are able to pull off victory. 1130 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:26,600 Speaker 2: But like Kelsey, I mean, if it's close and like 1131 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:29,439 Speaker 2: Mahomes has another like you know, one eighty two yard 1132 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 2: game or whatever, but Kelsey catches a touchdown, you know 1133 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 2: this Wholetailer Swift thing all to talk about, you know, Kelsey. 1134 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 2: It might be Kelsey's last year or whatever. I can 1135 00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 2: see that Mahomes is one too. I could see I 1136 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 2: could see Kelsey getting it too. So that's that's kind 1137 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 2: of my well thoughts on that. 1138 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think we're on the same page. On 1139 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 3: the other side of the going to the forty nine 1140 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:56,480 Speaker 3: Ers win is you know, can McCaffrey do enough? 1141 00:59:57,040 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 2: Yes as yes, yes, But. 1142 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:06,160 Speaker 3: We've seen running backs with three touchdowns not win it. 1143 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that was Patrick Holmes first time, first super Bowl, 1144 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,040 Speaker 2: first one, so you got to hear it to be like, 1145 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 2: but first of all, we haven't seen running back is 1146 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 2: good a Christan McAfrey in the Super Bowl in a 1147 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 2: long time period. Second of all, let's look at something 1148 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 2: that I do think actually has a little bit of correlation. 1149 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 2: Maybe not much, but it's these these markets come about 1150 01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,960 Speaker 2: once a year. It's really hard to break down. But 1151 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 2: who are the We. 1152 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 3: Haven't seen a running back win since Davis Davis? 1153 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, yeah, and then it was I think Emmitt 1154 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 2: one one and Davis. 1155 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1156 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 2: So but look who is the MVP finalists this year? 1157 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 2: They were announced thirty right, it was you know, it 1158 01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 2: was Lamar, it was and it was Purty and McCaffrey. 1159 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 2: So the fact that McCaffrey was an MVP finalist, uh, 1160 01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 2: and the fact that there was debate this season about 1161 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 2: you know, who should it be and whatnot? I think 1162 01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 2: the voters are perfectly fine with given McCaffrey the en 1163 01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,680 Speaker 2: the end. Let's just think about this realistically, like, what's 1164 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,720 Speaker 2: the forty nine? Is past the victory? Best past the victory? 1165 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 2: It's it's Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel running roughshot over 1166 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:16,560 Speaker 2: Kansas City and not forcing Purty you know, to to 1167 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 2: just have to throw at thirty five to forty times 1168 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,440 Speaker 2: against and a week pass defense that can man up 1169 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 2: if they have to. So, uh, you know, Perty's got 1170 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 2: better odds. McCaffrey is bus you know, about five to 1171 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 2: one and most spots, and I think some of that 1172 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 2: is because running backs haven't won it, but I think 1173 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:35,560 Speaker 2: that should be a lot closer. I mean, what do 1174 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,360 Speaker 2: you think, are you on the same page or what 1175 01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 2: do you think? Yeah? 1176 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,520 Speaker 3: I agree, I agree. I think that I think that 1177 01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:43,280 Speaker 3: he's gonna have a lot of success running it. He's 1178 01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 3: probably gonna get the touch he's I mean, you know, 1179 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:51,000 Speaker 3: he's gonna score. It's almost a lot. Yeah. So yeah, 1180 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 3: I think that the only other forty nine er that 1181 01:01:55,440 --> 01:02:00,080 Speaker 3: I think would be worth considering is Debo. But he 1182 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 3: also can break some runs. They even could throw him 1183 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 3: on a return. He's the only other one I would 1184 01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 3: consider from an MVP perspective. Everyone wants to better. First 1185 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,439 Speaker 3: touchdown at Dart you have a yeah, a ramp. 1186 01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 2: Oh so it's the same thing. It's it's it's always 1187 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,919 Speaker 2: going to kind of be the same guy. I mean, like, yes, 1188 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: there are you know, some guys that get targeted a 1189 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 2: little more early and some guys. You know, obviously you're 1190 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 2: gonna see more receivers on the field weight but for 1191 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 2: you know, normal touchdowns. First of all, let me just 1192 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,600 Speaker 2: talk about anytime real quick. I do think there's some 1193 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,400 Speaker 2: value in the Travis Kelce market at you know, it's 1194 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 2: like minus one ten both ways, just because you know, 1195 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:36,600 Speaker 2: just all eyes are going to be on him. I 1196 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 2: think you are getting like a discount factored in because 1197 01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 2: San Francisco is so good with their linebackers and whatnot. 1198 01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 2: But you know, San Francisco does have some you know, 1199 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,760 Speaker 2: the safeties aren't aren't great, and I think Pacheco and 1200 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 2: Kelsey should be pretty similar. But you know, Pacheco, that 1201 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 2: market's starting to be overvalued. So if you're looking for 1202 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,919 Speaker 2: just like any time, I think it's Kelsey, but long 1203 01:02:55,960 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 2: shot first touchdown or just anytime touchdown, got it be 1204 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 2: Richie James because talked about how they trimmed the fat. 1205 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 2: They're not playing Tony probably gonna be scratch again after 1206 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 2: his twitter whatever it's I do ive tiraid more. They're 1207 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 2: not playing Ross and they're not playing hard man anymore. 1208 01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 2: So Richie James has been the wide receiver four and 1209 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 2: he played seventeen snaps in the Timers Championship. He's also 1210 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 2: a return man, so you get some extra cracks at it. 1211 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 2: And what again, I was at that game last year, 1212 01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 2: who did I see score? I saw Skymore score for 1213 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,200 Speaker 2: the first time all year in that game against Philadelphia, 1214 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 2: and he was the only catch of the Super Bowl 1215 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 2: he scores, and he was I think the number four 1216 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 2: wide receiver in that matchup as well. And I see 1217 01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 2: Kadarius Tony he was barely on the field score on 1218 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 2: I think it was a five yard So when you 1219 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 2: have a guy like Richie James who's a complete afterthought 1220 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:57,919 Speaker 2: in this offense, Andy Reid can scheme up a play 1221 01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 2: for a guy like that, you never know when he's 1222 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 2: gonna do it. But unlike some of the other long shots, 1223 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,280 Speaker 2: because like the Niners, you know, talk about it with 1224 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:08,840 Speaker 2: a chance, they go back to Harman if you want 1225 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 2: to bet harmon anytime touchdown, I don't hate that. But 1226 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 2: like if you're talking about like a guy with long 1227 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:17,400 Speaker 2: odds who's also realistic with precedent, I think that guy 1228 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 2: would actually be Richie James because Harman got one snap 1229 01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:22,720 Speaker 2: last week. Now, I will say this, if Harmon plays 1230 01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 2: one stat this week, Andy Raid may very well have 1231 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 2: something drawn up specifically for Harman to score, like we've 1232 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,280 Speaker 2: seen that with Tony in the past, where he barely 1233 01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 2: plays and when he comes in it's like some crazy 1234 01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 2: red zone plays. So yeah, Harmon, but I say Richie 1235 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 2: James and another guy I'll throw out there. Well, two 1236 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 2: the tight ends for Kansas City. Now, we tried this 1237 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:44,560 Speaker 2: last year where I think it was Joe Fortson and 1238 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 2: didn't work out. But here's the thing. Remember, so something 1239 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 2: really important happened that boosts these tight ends, and it 1240 01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:54,920 Speaker 2: also I guess it works in Kelsey's favorite too. But 1241 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:58,160 Speaker 2: Kansas City this year, for the first time I think 1242 01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:02,280 Speaker 2: in the Mahomes era, stop using full back, so they 1243 01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 2: also don't sneak Mahomes, right, So combine those two things 1244 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 2: together and what happens. Well, we've seen them use Noah 1245 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: Gray in the past on a sneak, and we've seen 1246 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:14,880 Speaker 2: them use Blake Bell. I don't think it was this year, 1247 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:17,440 Speaker 2: but we've seen them use Blake Bell. Those are their 1248 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 2: two backup tight ends. So there's out for both of 1249 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 2: those guys. Even if they don't get let's say a 1250 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 2: red zone target or like a cheap play action or whatever, 1251 01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:31,600 Speaker 2: you still have that, you know, still small chances using 1252 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 2: a lot more. Yeah, yeah, exactly, That's what I'm getting at. 1253 01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 2: So Richie James, I think James, I would say, probably 1254 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 2: better anytime touchdown than first touchdown because the fourth wide 1255 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:45,200 Speaker 2: receiver is just more likely to get in the game. Leader, 1256 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,400 Speaker 2: because like you said, they're going a lot more one three, 1257 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 2: one two early. Uh and then yeah, Gray and Blake 1258 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 2: Bell probably better first touchdown bets. 1259 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 3: I completely agree. I'm going to take a shot on 1260 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 3: a Chief So it might be Richie James might be 1261 01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:02,680 Speaker 3: the way to go, because I was thinking Hardman. In 1262 01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:04,240 Speaker 3: the last time they played the forty nine Ers, he 1263 01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 3: had three touchdowns. 1264 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he almost had one in his last like 1265 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 2: significant action which was two games ago, but he fumbled 1266 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 2: out the end zone. Dude, absolutely score. But he also 1267 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:15,480 Speaker 2: fumbled on another play in that game. And here's some 1268 01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 2: hilarious mcgohardman stats. This year, he's had two drops two 1269 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 2: and this is just on the Chiefs, not even his 1270 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:25,600 Speaker 2: Jets or like two drops. They've been picked two times 1271 01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 2: in targeted him, three fumbles, one out of the end zone, 1272 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 2: a muff punt, three carries negative two yards, two fumbles, 1273 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 2: and then excluding the meetings Week eighteen game, he had 1274 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:41,720 Speaker 2: hang targets for forty six yards, thirteen touches forty forty yards, 1275 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 2: no touchdowns, and like negative rushing yardage, multiple turnovers. I 1276 01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 2: mean it could not possibly. 1277 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:54,560 Speaker 3: He had one catch for two yards, one carry for 1278 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 3: one yard, and two fumbles. One of the worst all 1279 01:06:57,880 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 3: time stat lines. 1280 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 2: I might take a shot on him, but yeah, no, 1281 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 2: I think it makes sense. DFS as well. Yeah, ones, 1282 01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:07,120 Speaker 2: but you might put you might be a scratch. I'm 1283 01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:09,880 Speaker 2: gonna go out and say, uh yeah, I would bet 1284 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:12,440 Speaker 2: those at your own risk. But I think Hardman, you 1285 01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 2: know these worth a dark throat DFS anytime touchdown things 1286 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:16,280 Speaker 2: like that. 1287 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 3: So uh yeah, I'll throw a dart Hardman and James. 1288 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be doing James and probably maybe I'll go 1289 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 2: Harmon to Bray and Bell. But that is going to 1290 01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 2: wrap it for us here on the Action Network podcast 1291 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:34,040 Speaker 2: presented by bet MGM.
