Speaker 1: Check it on man. Now down, man, it is the
Speaker 1: unnumbered day in Monday morning. To you, it's still Alexander.
Speaker 1: Hope you dealing well. Hope your weekend was a fine one.
Speaker 1: Mine was pretty damn good. We'll get in all that
Speaker 1: here momentarily on the show today, of course, guessing lines.
Speaker 1: That's what we do each and every Monday for weeks
Speaker 1: six in the National Football League. Chris Andrew's uh standing
Speaker 1: by to join us, the South Point sports book director,
Speaker 1: my buddy Chrissy, who uh is uh gonna have his
Speaker 1: work cut out for him today because with all the
Speaker 1: postponements and the rejiggering of the NFL schedule, we're gonna
Speaker 1: have to figure out what games are actually being played
Speaker 1: next week in which have been scuttled, and we'll give
Speaker 1: you the whole domino effect of what one postponement means
Speaker 1: two eight other games and how many teams are affected
Speaker 1: in the NFL schedule. So we'll get into that well, obviously,
Speaker 1: talk about the Lakers briefly, gets I have a baseball
Speaker 1: pick for today. Let me begin before we launch into
Speaker 1: guessing lines, though with I'm sure what a lot of
Speaker 1: listeners are waiting to talk about the victory at the
Speaker 1: French Show. But if you're just landing on this show, UH,
Speaker 1: this is an army of winners from this show. On
Speaker 1: Egas fat Tech winning the Ladies French Open, Ladys side
Speaker 1: of the French Open in UH in Paris over the weekend.
Speaker 1: Roland Garros egaswattechas Fotech rather is a pick we made
Speaker 1: for the first time at the end of January. Dan
Speaker 1: Weston was on the show. We ran the tape last
Speaker 1: last week. We talked about EGA double digit amount of times.
Speaker 1: After that, Jason Khan produced a number seven in his
Speaker 1: UH producing number seven sweepstakes entry video, even talked about
Speaker 1: his egos Fatech bet Um that he made it tech.
Speaker 1: Nichols sadly that was that went by the wayside. Sorry
Speaker 1: about that, Jason. That was very unfortunate circumstances. But I
Speaker 1: was just so thrilled for everybody. It was one thing
Speaker 1: that I won this it was it was another thing
Speaker 1: that everybody. We had at least a hundred plus people
Speaker 1: and I'm probably being modest about that number, but at
Speaker 1: least a hundred people post to Twitter before the weekend,
Speaker 1: and then once she won on Saturday, just it was
Speaker 1: an all day affair on Twitter answering everybody responded, everybody,
Speaker 1: everybody was awesome. I'm so pumped for everybody and this
Speaker 1: is and I'll I won't be labor this too much
Speaker 1: this morning, because I know we want to get into
Speaker 1: guessing lines. But you know, the very first prediction made
Speaker 1: on this network, we had a Super Bowl show when
Speaker 1: when Visa first started in seventeen, it was during the
Speaker 1: Patriots Falcon Super Bowl and Brent leaned over to me
Speaker 1: and said, you know, give me the value picked for
Speaker 1: next year Super Bowl. And I said the Eagles thirty
Speaker 1: to one, and the Eagles ended up winning the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: And on this show since then, we've had great moments.
Speaker 1: Tanka Palooza, the longest running, the longest running betting stretch
Speaker 1: that anyone could ever hope for, uh, the obligation of
Speaker 1: betting the Washington Nationals as big dogs to the Astro's
Speaker 1: time and time again last year. And just in women's
Speaker 1: tennis to begin with Bianca and Dresscoo to win the
Speaker 1: U S Open, Sophia Kennon to win the Australian Open
Speaker 1: earlier this year at eight to one odds. I believe
Speaker 1: it's where we got her and then this is this
Speaker 1: is honestly the mic drop moment for this because I
Speaker 1: don't think it can get better than this, Like this
Speaker 1: is just sort of the moment where we just have
Speaker 1: to appreciate what just went down. Not only was she
Speaker 1: as high as a forty to one favorites, I got
Speaker 1: her as high as thirty three to one, but I
Speaker 1: know there were some listeners who got her at forty
Speaker 1: to one. But given the the time before, the distance
Speaker 1: in time before the event when we made the call
Speaker 1: that nine months beforehand, the long shot nature of her
Speaker 1: and the sheer dominance with which she won the tournament,
Speaker 1: making it a perfectly hedgeable moment going into the finals.
Speaker 1: I think that's the key betting key of it all,
Speaker 1: the key betting detail of it all. I don't think
Speaker 1: it gets better than that. Egas Vatk dropped twenty eight
Speaker 1: games in fourteen sets of tennis, she never gave up
Speaker 1: more than four games, but she never gave up more
Speaker 1: than four games, and she only gave up four games
Speaker 1: in a set twice throughout the entire run and did
Speaker 1: not get a favorable draw. Her opening round match was
Speaker 1: against Marquetta Vondrosova, who was a finalist in the French
Speaker 1: Open last year. It was one of Dan Weston's pre
Speaker 1: tournament picks futures picks to make. She crushed her six
Speaker 1: six one. Uh. She ends up having to play the
Speaker 1: number one seed, Samona Hallip, crushes her six s two
Speaker 1: and then ends up playing Sophia Kennan, are girl in
Speaker 1: the Australian Open who's as mentally steely as they come,
Speaker 1: and beat her six four six one, cracking Kenan mentally
Speaker 1: in the finals. As they said in the old Milwaukee commercials,
Speaker 1: it don't get no better than this. It's a double negative.
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, skill Alexander. It's a
Speaker 1: numbers game at Visa, the sports betting network. Um so
Speaker 1: let us all enjoy the moment. And again I'm just
Speaker 1: so happy for everybody who bet alongside uh Igasvatek. There
Speaker 1: are her numbers, by the way, accorded about three six,
Speaker 1: five six two six one six four six three six
Speaker 1: two six one six two six three six one six
Speaker 1: to six one six four six one, fourteen sets, won,
Speaker 1: fourteen sets, the youngest female French Open winner since nineteen
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety two. And uh, it was just the
Speaker 1: thing where I had seen her get to the fourth
Speaker 1: round last year on clay as an eighteen year old,
Speaker 1: got all the way to the fourth round before Holliet
Speaker 1: crushed her. But she had won every single final she
Speaker 1: had played on the Satellite Tour, the i t F,
Speaker 1: the International Tennis Federation Tour, seven of them. And she
Speaker 1: gets it done in a big way. So congratulations to
Speaker 1: all group. Hug group high fives. It is just a
Speaker 1: sensational moment. And uh, may everybody enjoy hope you had
Speaker 1: as great a weekend as I did, enjoying that, celebrating
Speaker 1: that to city celebration for me. Jason. All right, let's
Speaker 1: get some lines that said week number six of the
Speaker 1: National Football League. Let's bring him in. He's my mish
Speaker 1: from the South wayde Hotel Casino. It's chrisy Andrews. Good
Speaker 1: morning to you, Chris, you well. First of all, congratulations
Speaker 1: and that was one hell of a pick and you
Speaker 1: deserve to run win it. So and Tony, everybody followed it.
Speaker 1: I'm sure they did really well, so good for them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's great, That's what I'm most happy about that. Everybody
Speaker 1: amazing arm for me of people who jumped on that pick. Uh,
Speaker 1: there really was. I haven't followed tennis, and but of
Speaker 1: course I follow you, and uh just see all the
Speaker 1: comments you you you drew an army of uh well
Speaker 1: fans and better too turned your suggestion into from serious cash.
Speaker 1: That's what That's what it's all about here. So we
Speaker 1: were at just a great moment and I hope people
Speaker 1: bast in it for at least the weekend. That that much.
Speaker 1: And then there was the NFL yesterday Chrissie which uh,
Speaker 1: which which went well for me. Uh it was four
Speaker 1: and one in the contest survivor pick got through. It
Speaker 1: was a bit of a survivor carnage, which we'll get into.
Speaker 1: Um and said a lot of things to talk about,
Speaker 1: and I said at the top, you got your work
Speaker 1: cut out for you here today, because between what is
Speaker 1: getting played and what isn't is a whole another discipline. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was talking about humans last night, we you know.
Speaker 1: And he ad asked me to be looked at all
Speaker 1: the schedule pause. But as a matter, I really haven't.
Speaker 1: Everything's written in pencil right now, so it comes up
Speaker 1: and there's no reason for me to look ahead and
Speaker 1: start dealing with it because I don't know what's real,
Speaker 1: and it isn't and isn't anybody else, So you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's uh, it's we already lost a couple
Speaker 1: of college games, by the way for the week, so
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully we won't lose any pros. But you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know. And the one thing we do know
Speaker 1: is because Denver and New England, well, okay, Denver, New
Speaker 1: England our postpone. We'll get into the whole domino effect
Speaker 1: of that. But we know tonight as the Chargers in
Speaker 1: New Orleans, New Orleans without Michael Thomas, tonight our seven
Speaker 1: point favorites against the Chargers. UH and with UH and
Speaker 1: the story with Michael Thomas, just to get the exact
Speaker 1: wording here, UH sources telling Adam Schefter that the decision
Speaker 1: came after the star wide receiver had an altercation with
Speaker 1: a teammate at practice this weekend. It was with safety C. J. Gardner. Johnson,
Speaker 1: according to multiple reports and confirmed by ESPN, has nothing
Speaker 1: to do with Michael Thomas's injury. So New Orleans Chargers tonight,
Speaker 1: then tomorrow Buffalo, Tennessee, and so as long as that
Speaker 1: game's schedule for tomorrow, we don't have a Thursday night
Speaker 1: game next week? Correct, That is correct? Yes, okay, so
Speaker 1: shall we start with Sunday morning? Let's try this, tell
Speaker 1: you what I'm throwing a curveball here? Okay? Can we
Speaker 1: start with Tuesday because this game is looks like it's
Speaker 1: gonna be played, but there has not been numbers on
Speaker 1: it all week, and so I'm definitely throwing your curveball.
Speaker 1: As as you were talking about, Ego Swappeck, I was
Speaker 1: doing a little work myself trying to figure out what
Speaker 1: number I like, but the numbers just popping up, and
Speaker 1: I think we should probably discuss that before we go forward.
Speaker 1: That's tomorrow night's game, Buffalo at Tennesseey Buffalo at Tennessee.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna see what I guessed last week on it,
Speaker 1: just to see how my how my thinking might have
Speaker 1: changed with one week of idle this right like that.
Speaker 1: I think that's an interesting exercise to what did I
Speaker 1: think it was gonna be last last week? I thought
Speaker 1: it was gonna be Tennessee minus one and a half.
Speaker 1: Now a week later, with Tennessee not having played an
Speaker 1: additional week, so they they've been they've been off for
Speaker 1: a while. They've only played three football games. That's probably
Speaker 1: you see, it's interesting just having not played an additional
Speaker 1: week that probably swings a little more to Buffalo. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's a pick of maybe it's Buffalo minus one and
Speaker 1: a half. I'd say I'll go most of Buffalo. It
Speaker 1: was Buffalo like three and a half, three with a
Speaker 1: lot of juice on the favorite, Buffalo the favorite. So
Speaker 1: uh it is really swung Buffalo's way. Now my numbers
Speaker 1: without a home field advantage or Buffalo by three and
Speaker 1: a half, but again without a home field advantage. Uh
Speaker 1: So I'm probably and I'm still my study on home
Speaker 1: fields are still very inconclusive. Let's say that. So I'm
Speaker 1: gonna probably open this game three. And I've been feeling
Speaker 1: the public will come in the bills of the Mine Street.
Speaker 1: But again, I think Tennessee's been underrated all year. But
Speaker 1: I still play three. Is what I'm gonna open this one,
Speaker 1: Buffalo minus three. And that is it's a quirky thing, right,
Speaker 1: My guests would have been one thing last week and
Speaker 1: it would have shifted based on just Tennessee being rusty?
Speaker 1: Is it rest or rust? Right, that's the whole thing
Speaker 1: with it. So Buffalo Buffalo minus three Okay, I also think,
Speaker 1: you know, football players, they're talking about it all the time.
Speaker 1: They're really creatures. I have it. You do this on Tuesday,
Speaker 1: you do this, only do this on thurs blah blah
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Right down the line. Well, I mean,
Speaker 1: they're very been more disrupted than any team you know,
Speaker 1: by far, and I would say so far in this league.
Speaker 1: And Buffaloes. You know, I don't hear of any problems
Speaker 1: with Buffalo, So I think the situation is kind of
Speaker 1: swung Buffalo's way. And I don't know what I had
Speaker 1: last week. I don't have my notes, but I think
Speaker 1: I think three is probably a legitimate number, and I
Speaker 1: think the money will show on Buffalo the minus street. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with it. I don't have
Speaker 1: a problem with it, said Buffalo minus one and a half.
Speaker 1: But I get the three. All right? What's first on Sunday?
Speaker 1: Then Week six? Okay, now here we go Sunday, the
Speaker 1: Bears at the Panthers, Bears at the Panthers, the four
Speaker 1: and one Chicago Bears, pardon me, and the three and
Speaker 1: two Carolina Panthers Bears. As we know on extra rest
Speaker 1: here they beat Tampa Bay twenty to nineteen on Thursday
Speaker 1: Night did so behind Nick Foles thirty forty two to
Speaker 1: forty three, one touchdown, one pick, three sacks, Allan Robinson
Speaker 1: ted catches for ninety yards. Khalil Mack had two sacks,
Speaker 1: but they only had two forty three total yards only
Speaker 1: thirty five rushing yards. And as I talked about on
Speaker 1: this show on Friday, Matt Naggy, I just listen, Lincoln
Speaker 1: Riley did this with Oklahoma on Saturday. To these coaches
Speaker 1: just do not I do not understand how they do
Speaker 1: not understand how to win football games. At the end.
Speaker 1: I know it worked out for both of those guys
Speaker 1: in the end. But in the case of the Bears,
Speaker 1: second and nine at the Tampa Bay twenty four with
Speaker 1: one eight left down ninety to seventeen, Tamba Bay only
Speaker 1: has one time out left. All they have to do
Speaker 1: the Bears is run the ball into the line. Taba
Speaker 1: will have to spend their last time out and then
Speaker 1: they can run it into the line again and basically
Speaker 1: bleed the clock down enough so that they'll get their
Speaker 1: field goal and Tom Brady will have no really no
Speaker 1: time left on the clock to operator very minimal time
Speaker 1: instead folds incomplete pasta Robinson and it completely changes the
Speaker 1: win probability of the game because then when the Bears
Speaker 1: kicked the go ahead field goal to make it twenty
Speaker 1: to nineteen, Tom Brady has all the time in the world. Now,
Speaker 1: I know Tom Brady thought he had five downs. So
Speaker 1: it ends up working out for the Bears in the end.
Speaker 1: But good lord, what are you doing so the Bears
Speaker 1: will have extra rest? Carolina yesterday, uh gets it done again.
Speaker 1: Carolina beats Atlanta twenty three to sixteen. I know you've
Speaker 1: been a big Teddy Bridgewater guy for a long time.
Speaker 1: He was twenty seven and thirty seven for three thirteen,
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, no pick sack, zero times, was not sacked.
Speaker 1: Mike Davis sixteen eighty nine on the ground, nine catches
Speaker 1: for sixty sixty yards and a touchdown by Anderson one
Speaker 1: twelve DJ more and a nice touchdown down the sideline.
Speaker 1: Four hundred thirty seven totally yards for the Panthers. I'll
Speaker 1: say Panthers minus three and a half. Chris, Well, you're
Speaker 1: a little bit high. It's a two and half of
Speaker 1: three h three with the juice on the dog. Tune
Speaker 1: out the juice on the favorite. I kind of liked
Speaker 1: the two and a half a little better, but I
Speaker 1: really think this, um, I think this Panther team is
Speaker 1: kind of coming on. And I'm looking at Teddy. My
Speaker 1: notes on Teddy. His QBR is eighty five point seven,
Speaker 1: and I think the week before and again for one
Speaker 1: these weeks just run at each other. I can't always remember,
Speaker 1: but I think he had his best game since the
Speaker 1: injury the week before. And you're right, I have loved
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater since he was in college and I was,
Speaker 1: you know, I felt for the kid when you had
Speaker 1: that devastating injury because I really think Teddy was Pennsylvan
Speaker 1: for star. And in this league, they're also starting to
Speaker 1: run the ball very well, even without Christian McCaffrey, and
Speaker 1: keep this team's coming on. And the Bears think the
Speaker 1: worst four and one team in the history of the league.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you can make a legitimate argument
Speaker 1: for that could legitimately be five really conservatively four yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh easily, easily, easily uh And then I go with
Speaker 1: a two and a half a thick right now. But
Speaker 1: I understand your feelings on it, and you know, my
Speaker 1: my power ratings only have a half a point better
Speaker 1: than the Bears. But again, I'm still looking at some
Speaker 1: of this home field stuff. So I think I'm gonna
Speaker 1: open to an f see that they want to go
Speaker 1: with it. That I understand your point. And by the way,
Speaker 1: let's say this, Uh you know, think got Matt Rule,
Speaker 1: a rookie coach for the Carolina Sometimes you guys work
Speaker 1: out great, Oftentimes they don't. This guy looks like he's
Speaker 1: learning the NFL game a little bit, and I always
Speaker 1: really like him in college. And maybe he's a smart guy.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's figuring this out and improving this team along
Speaker 1: the way started owing too. Now they're three and two, and,
Speaker 1: as you said, doing it without Christian McCaffrey, who will
Speaker 1: come back here sooner than later. I like my number better.
Speaker 1: I like the three and a half. Uh, paper tiger,
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, paper tiger. Alright, number two. What's next? Detroit
Speaker 1: at Jacksonville, Detroit at Jacksonville, Detroit having to buy this week, Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing about that game. By the way, Jacksonville
Speaker 1: loses to Houston thirty to fourteen in a game that
Speaker 1: looks like they got blown out Jacksonville. Gardner Minshew thirty
Speaker 1: one forty nine for three oh one two touchdowns. No,
Speaker 1: Pixie was sacked three times. Labiscos his number one receiver
Speaker 1: seven for seventy nine UM. But Jacksonville and Jacksonville was
Speaker 1: depleted defensively, so they shouldn't have been in this game.
Speaker 1: But man, were they in this game. Uh the two
Speaker 1: field goals, Stephen how should miss two field goals? One
Speaker 1: of which was from twenty four yards out? So those
Speaker 1: are two field goals wiped off the board. I think
Speaker 1: the other one was like forty seven yards and then
Speaker 1: they had a pick, they had a short field. Uh,
Speaker 1: they were right in the game. They could have taken
Speaker 1: the lead. Instead they end up with zero points. I mean,
Speaker 1: there was all kinds of things that Jacksonville they just
Speaker 1: couldn't get out of their own way, and so they
Speaker 1: end up losing this game and not covering. But it
Speaker 1: was way closer than the score indicates, which I think
Speaker 1: is more of an indictment of the Texans than it
Speaker 1: is saying anything about the Jaguars. I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: have much else to say about this. Detroit coming off
Speaker 1: bye week here, I'll say Detroit minus three at Jacksonville. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're a little like my numbers come the four, but
Speaker 1: it's mostly three and a half. I think there was
Speaker 1: one three years there's one three a pinnacle with a
Speaker 1: bunch of juice on the favorite. Uh So I think
Speaker 1: the three and ass okay, I said my number actually
Speaker 1: comes a little higher. I think jackson were going back
Speaker 1: to that game yesterday. Uh probably why an indictment in
Speaker 1: Houston because I thought the situation with the firing of O'Brien,
Speaker 1: the fact that they hadn't won a game playing a
Speaker 1: division rival who they should beat. Uh, you know, and
Speaker 1: a lot of wise guy money did show up on
Speaker 1: Houston there at the end, and I think they had
Speaker 1: the right idea. Um, but Houston and uh, well we'll
Speaker 1: we'll get to them a little bit, I guess, but
Speaker 1: you know, they're just not that good right now. Although
Speaker 1: it felt good for Romeo for now, I mean, as
Speaker 1: guy's been around the leading for a long time, nice
Speaker 1: to see him get the win. But I like three
Speaker 1: and a half. I think that's okay, but I would
Speaker 1: like a little bit higher if it came HIRER. I
Speaker 1: just think Jacksonville right now is not a very good
Speaker 1: football teaple. Not that Detroit is but like I said,
Speaker 1: my numbers just come, you know, beat higher. That's all
Speaker 1: in a season in which Bill O'Brien and now Dan
Speaker 1: quinn in Atlanta, along with along with the GM Demitrof
Speaker 1: have lost their jobs, Bill O'Brien being both coach and
Speaker 1: GM Matt. If Matt Patricia loses this game to Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: I wonder if he is third. I wonder what's another one,
Speaker 1: Chris on on Sunday morning, we have the Falcons at
Speaker 1: the Vikings. So the Falcons, as the just mentioned, no
Speaker 1: Dan quinn uh done as the head coach of the
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. And here's the thing, it's kind of a
Speaker 1: move you probably should have made before the season. I
Speaker 1: agree with our buddy Chris Felika who said, now it
Speaker 1: just kind of looks like you're admitting your mistake doing
Speaker 1: it now. I kind of agree with that. Atlanta loses.
Speaker 1: As we mentioned to Carolina, Matt Ryan was twenty one
Speaker 1: thirty seven for two twenty six, no touchdowns, one pick,
Speaker 1: uh sack twice. Todd Gurley looking good four team for
Speaker 1: one twenty wanted a touchdown, Calvin really eight for one
Speaker 1: thirty six, and then there is Minnesota Kirk Cousins twenty
Speaker 1: seven thirty nine last night in the Vikings defeat at
Speaker 1: the hands of the Seahawks twenty seven to twenty six
Speaker 1: Wow Alexander Madison twenty one twelve, Dalvin Cook seventeen for
Speaker 1: sixty five and a touchdow before we went out with
Speaker 1: a groad injury, Adam Feeling nine for eighty for two touchdowns.
Speaker 1: The Vikings out gained the Seahawks four forty nine to
Speaker 1: three fourteen. They had the advantage in time of possession
Speaker 1: thirty nine minutes and twenty eight seconds to twenty minutes
Speaker 1: and forty two seconds. I'm gonna leave it there. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you my guests right now, and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna get into all the shanigans. At the end of
Speaker 1: that game. I'm gonna say it's Minnesota minus four. Hold
Speaker 1: hold your thoughts on that, Chris, because I wanna uh
Speaker 1: feel like your number better. Thank you three and a half.
Speaker 1: My numbers come to three and a half. Excuse me
Speaker 1: if I number come to three and a half with
Speaker 1: no home field, I think you've gotta give Minnesota a
Speaker 1: little bit here, so I would like this at least
Speaker 1: four or better. I'll open three. Now see what they
Speaker 1: want to do with it. But again, if I see
Speaker 1: it's skewing higher, I'm gonna go higher. But let's talk
Speaker 1: about that game last analytics. Let's I think you might
Speaker 1: be surprised how I feel. I'm curious how you feel?
Speaker 1: Should I start? Okay, I'll set it up. No, let
Speaker 1: me start. You know the analytics much better than I
Speaker 1: you as I can see that a million percent, all right.
Speaker 1: They give you like the wind probability, you know, if
Speaker 1: he goes for it and misses, if he goes for it,
Speaker 1: makes it. And I understand he goes for it makes it.
Speaker 1: It's essentially or if he kicks the field goal and
Speaker 1: goes up by eight with the wind probabilities my question,
Speaker 1: and I don't know the answer, and so I'm asking you,
Speaker 1: and uh, if our friend Rufus is listening, I know
Speaker 1: he's big on nice and he could give a you know,
Speaker 1: a pre detail the answer too. They gave you the
Speaker 1: win percentage possibilities if they go for it and don't
Speaker 1: make the first down, and I think it was six
Speaker 1: percent if I remember correctly. Does that take it into
Speaker 1: account that it's Russell Wilson on the other side, or
Speaker 1: does it or is the same win amount with whether
Speaker 1: it's uh, you know, c J. Becker at the quarterback
Speaker 1: of the opposite sin or Tom Brady or some other
Speaker 1: stiff that they just brought up on the injured list,
Speaker 1: or the fact that it's Russell Wilson and we've been
Speaker 1: doing this show for I don't know how many years.
Speaker 1: Most of these time times I've been a bookmaker. A
Speaker 1: few years I was independent, and I've told you from
Speaker 1: the start when I'm a bookmaker, I hate rooting against
Speaker 1: this guy, Russell Wilson. I'm talking about. I hate it,
Speaker 1: and unfortunate I'm in a position I have to root
Speaker 1: against them all the time, including last night. We had
Speaker 1: a ton of money line play on Seattle. If Minnesota
Speaker 1: holds him out, we have one of the biggest days
Speaker 1: we've ever had at the South Point. As it was,
Speaker 1: I'm not complaining. We had a pretty good day. Everything
Speaker 1: was fine, but if we had held him out of
Speaker 1: the end zone, it would have been a monster day.
Speaker 1: And as soon as they got the ball back, I'm you,
Speaker 1: asked my wife. She's sitting here with me and like
Speaker 1: I just have this look on my face like we're
Speaker 1: gonna lose. I know Russell Wilson's gonna take the I
Speaker 1: don't We're gonna lose. The ships wasn't going to no chance.
Speaker 1: So I want to ask you when they give you
Speaker 1: that percentage, what does that mean? Does that take into
Speaker 1: account who the quarterback is? No, it does not. It
Speaker 1: does not. Yeah, it does not. I mean the you're
Speaker 1: talking about the next gen stats that they flashed up
Speaker 1: at the end of that game where their Vikings win
Speaker 1: probability was nine percent prior to that fourth and one play,
Speaker 1: and if they gained the yard, then it immediately goes
Speaker 1: to a dent. So that that is, you know, whether
Speaker 1: it's Russell Wilson slinging Sammy bar Y a tittle that
Speaker 1: one wouldn't matter if they get that yard. But if
Speaker 1: they don't get that yard is what you're referring to.
Speaker 1: And no, that is not that does the algorithm does
Speaker 1: not factor in who the guy is on the the
Speaker 1: other side of the field, which is you're right. It's like,
Speaker 1: it's a very good point. We're gonna run into a commercial.
Speaker 1: I have somebody, I have so much to say about this,
Speaker 1: because you have to go back to when the Vikings
Speaker 1: were up one the Vikings go up to twenty one
Speaker 1: with just over seven minutes left, and the first decision
Speaker 1: is do you kick the extra point or do you
Speaker 1: go for two? And I hear there's a lot of
Speaker 1: people retroactively who are like, well, you should have gone
Speaker 1: for two, because then if you were up six, then
Speaker 1: the field goal becomes the automatic choice at the end
Speaker 1: of the game, and you'd be up nine, and you
Speaker 1: wouldn't hesitate to kick the field goal because then it
Speaker 1: would make it two scores. But I don't know if
Speaker 1: I heard any of those people say at that moment
Speaker 1: they should go for two, because I think if you
Speaker 1: kick the extra point and you're up five, then a
Speaker 1: field goal still put you up eight, which would require
Speaker 1: a touchdown and a two point conversion to tie you.
Speaker 1: It's still two events on a football field. So I
Speaker 1: don't agree with the people who sort of retroactively are like, oh,
Speaker 1: they should have gone for two. I don't get that.
Speaker 1: We'll get back to the rest of this here. Momentarily,
Speaker 1: it's a numbers game at Visa and these sports betting
Speaker 1: Network skill Alexander's it's Chrissy Andrews. This is guessing lines
Speaker 1: for Week six. Chris we could do an hour on
Speaker 1: this on this game, so they'll have to move on
Speaker 1: here at some point. But let's get back to it
Speaker 1: for and wrap it up. So up to twenty one,
Speaker 1: with just over seven minutes left, the Vikings elect to
Speaker 1: kick the extra point. Alright, well, so I'm okay with that.
Speaker 1: Some people disagree. I don't agree. I think it's fine
Speaker 1: to kick the extra point there because then if the
Speaker 1: field goal still put you up eight, which requires two
Speaker 1: events for the other team to tie you, but then
Speaker 1: the end. So it's second and sixteen at the Seattle
Speaker 1: twenty one with two forty four left in the game. Okay,
Speaker 1: and it's twenty six to twenty one at this point,
Speaker 1: Vikings Second and sixteen at the Seattle twenty one with
Speaker 1: four left, and the Vikings get a twelve yard gain.
Speaker 1: Now that's the play that no one's gonna focus on,
Speaker 1: but that's the play that got them into this predicament
Speaker 1: to begin with. Right, they're a victim of their own
Speaker 1: success because if they don't get the twelve yards, let's
Speaker 1: say they just have your normal three yard or four
Speaker 1: yard play, they'll be fine kicking a field goal on
Speaker 1: a subsequent down. If they don't get the first down, right,
Speaker 1: then it's like find it, We'll just kick the field goal.
Speaker 1: But no, they got twelve yards, which got them to
Speaker 1: a third and four, and then they got three yards,
Speaker 1: so that's when it became fourth and one at the
Speaker 1: Seattle six with two minutes left. So the question, Chrissie becomes,
Speaker 1: what do you do? What do you do? Uh? A
Speaker 1: field goal puts you up eight. A successful sneak quarterback
Speaker 1: sneak will end the game. By the way, that's what
Speaker 1: I was in favor of at that moment. I was
Speaker 1: just just sneaking. Yeah, I could definitely see that. Absolutely. Yeah,
Speaker 1: here was another option, try to draw them off sides
Speaker 1: for the free first down or then settle for the
Speaker 1: field goal to go up eight. Instead, they do none
Speaker 1: of those. They run your standard run play and uh
Speaker 1: the running back decides to just crash into the line.
Speaker 1: Doesn't work out. So, by the way, for survivors who
Speaker 1: ends up winning this on Seattle, what a what a
Speaker 1: just escape job. But this is one of the weirdest
Speaker 1: box scores you'll ever see because Seattle was over seven
Speaker 1: on third downs in this entire football game, but they
Speaker 1: were two for two on fourth both of which came
Speaker 1: on the subsequent drive fourth and ten and fourth and eight,
Speaker 1: and Seattle wins the game because Russell Wilson, as you say,
Speaker 1: of course, matriculates the ball down the field and hits
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf for the winning score. Seattle seven, Vikings six.
Speaker 1: What were you in favor of doing down there? I'm
Speaker 1: wanted to take the field you go up eight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they gotta get a you know, a long drive presumably
Speaker 1: and scoring the touchdown and then get a deuce just
Speaker 1: to tie again. I tell your happy kicks, mostly because
Speaker 1: I do not want to give Russell Wilson the ball back.
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson A lot other guys can't have that. Here
Speaker 1: you go, but Russell Wilson. No, I was in favor
Speaker 1: of the sneak, if I'm being honest, because I think again,
Speaker 1: you put the game away if you if you convert that.
Speaker 1: I wasn't in favor of any other offensive play. But
Speaker 1: the field goal would have been second to me to
Speaker 1: the sneak. Because you're right, even though Russell Wilson gets
Speaker 1: the ball back, he still has to achieve two things,
Speaker 1: and and adding that second thing would be obviously the
Speaker 1: key to that to that kicking of the field goal
Speaker 1: because you go up bait. By the way, Seattle has
Speaker 1: allowed twenty five plus points now in ten straight home games.
Speaker 1: That's an amazing stat, an NFL record. I thought Pete
Speaker 1: Carroll was a defensive guy. Twenty five plus points intense
Speaker 1: right at home games. Alright, So Minnesota favored by how
Speaker 1: much in the end against Atlanta after all that? Three?
Speaker 1: Three and a half? Okay, what's next? Well, next up
Speaker 1: is Houston at Tennessee. And there is no number on
Speaker 1: this game. Um, I guess right now, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of question marks that you know, as will be the
Speaker 1: case throughout the year. So uh, right now it's scheduled,
Speaker 1: but I see no numbers on this game. I think
Speaker 1: everybody wants to see will they actually pull this game
Speaker 1: off the mark because Tennessee has had what twenty three
Speaker 1: I think COVID positive twenty three COVID positives players in personnel. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. He plays Buffalo supposedly tomorrow, and if they
Speaker 1: do play on Sunday, we'll be on extra short rest
Speaker 1: of five days between games. Um. By the way, Houston
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson and defeat against excuse me, and victory yesterday
Speaker 1: against Jacksonville thirty five for three fifty nine, three touchdowns,
Speaker 1: two picks, one sack. Uh. David Johnson seventeen carries for
Speaker 1: ninety six yards. Brandon Cooks eight catches for si touchow
Speaker 1: they had four eighty six total yards. But they will
Speaker 1: be a dog to Tennessee. We just don't know if
Speaker 1: the game's gonna get played, because let's just take it
Speaker 1: one game at a time. We'll see if the Buffalo
Speaker 1: Tennessee game gets played on Tuesday, But I would imagine
Speaker 1: if if it does, the Tennessee would probably be just
Speaker 1: shy of a touchdown favorite or some like that. I
Speaker 1: would be my guest. I don't know. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: have a four and a half with no home field,
Speaker 1: so that would probably put us up near the six
Speaker 1: and a half. Yeah, I had six. Let's do one,
Speaker 1: Let's do one more? Um and you are walking his
Speaker 1: football team against the New York Giants, Oh Alex Smith Uh.
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen started the game for the Washington football team,
Speaker 1: who lost to the Rams. As as you probably know,
Speaker 1: lost to the Rams thirty to ten. Did the washingtonootball team.
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen was nine of thirteen for seventy four yards.
Speaker 1: No touchdowns, no picks. He was sacked twice. He had
Speaker 1: one carry for seven yards that was for a touchdown,
Speaker 1: but then got hurt on a play where he got
Speaker 1: helmet to helmeted and in came Alex Smith chills inducing.
Speaker 1: He suffered one of the most gruesome injuries in NFL
Speaker 1: history when he broke his tibia and fibula during a
Speaker 1: November loss of the Texans. His fracture would become infected,
Speaker 1: which had doctor seriously considering amputating his leg instead. He
Speaker 1: endured seventeen surgeries and had to relearn how to walk
Speaker 1: and run, all with the goal of getting back onto
Speaker 1: the field. As Smith himself said, quote, the next thing
Speaker 1: I remember is waking up several weeks later, faced with
Speaker 1: the decision of amputation or limb salvage. At that point,
Speaker 1: limb salvage. Uh. He doesn't end up doing anything. He
Speaker 1: was nine of seventeen for just thirty seven yards, which
Speaker 1: is two point two yards per attempt. But as I said,
Speaker 1: I don't care. One forward pass and he's the comeback
Speaker 1: player of the year. He got sacked six times. I
Speaker 1: was terrified for the guy, but six times the leg.
Speaker 1: The leg held up the Washington football team was two
Speaker 1: of thirteen on third down, there were zero one on four.
Speaker 1: They only had a hundred and eight total yards one
Speaker 1: oh eight for the whole game, thirty eight on the ground,
Speaker 1: only five in time of possession. And then there's the Giants,
Speaker 1: who are oh and five for the third time in
Speaker 1: the last eight seasons, seventeen being the others. Both the
Speaker 1: Jets and Giants, by the way, oh and five for
Speaker 1: the first time ever together. Daniel Jones is not that
Speaker 1: good at football. Uh. He's twenty of thirty three for
Speaker 1: two twenty two against the Cowboys, no touchdowns, no picks.
Speaker 1: He was sacked twice. It's his fourth straight game without
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Um Darius Layton was his number one target,
Speaker 1: eight for one twenty nine. But Daniel Jones, man, the
Speaker 1: Giants had so many chances to win that football game.
Speaker 1: They lose to Dallas, which is a whole another story
Speaker 1: and we'll get to that later. Thirty seven to thirty four,
Speaker 1: but it's one in four Washington at oh and five Giants.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call it a pick them. You can give
Speaker 1: me the answer. It's three and favorite of who break
Speaker 1: You'll tell me after the break. Somebody's the three point
Speaker 1: favorite in this game. I don't get it already. We'll
Speaker 1: come back. We're continuing guessing lines a very uh staccato
Speaker 1: week six because we don't know what's getting played and
Speaker 1: domino effect will get into all that. Still, Christie'll let
Speaker 1: me know whose favorite here? Coming back on a numbers
Speaker 1: game at Visa these sports betting network. Chrissie and I
Speaker 1: could have done an hour on that game sequence at
Speaker 1: the end against the Seahawks. Uh. Now, now we're on
Speaker 1: the the Washington football team and the Giants. The Washington
Speaker 1: football team a game out in the NFC East, the
Speaker 1: Giants only two games back at oh and five. Um,
Speaker 1: and I'll just say it again, Alex Smith, what a
Speaker 1: moment that was yesterday coming into the game for the
Speaker 1: washingt football team. It was just absolutely like, here we are.
Speaker 1: It's happening now. I don't know what the I don't
Speaker 1: know what the Washington football team is gonna do moving forward.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you keep Alex Smith in there,
Speaker 1: if you go back to Kyle Allen. But the Dwayne
Speaker 1: Haskins thing has gone off the rails. Uh, they are done.
Speaker 1: They they're Jason lacamfora reporting that the Reds excuse me,
Speaker 1: the Washington football team trying to trade Dwayne Haskins or
Speaker 1: they're open to trading him, which is a real sudden fall.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say from grace, but at least having a
Speaker 1: productive symbiotic relationship, at least trying to Some folks like
Speaker 1: Lewis Riddick put all the blame on the football team.
Speaker 1: They said they're doing this kid wrong, that they set
Speaker 1: him up to fail, that in another organization it would
Speaker 1: have been much more nurturing. And he's probably right about that.
Speaker 1: But it's not Ron Rivera's guy, and so they've just
Speaker 1: hung him out to dry. But anyway, that's where we are.
Speaker 1: I said, to pick him. You said one of these
Speaker 1: teams is favored by three. Yeah, the Giants are favored
Speaker 1: by three. I have him one point better on the
Speaker 1: neutral field. So give him a little little bit to
Speaker 1: the Giants. I heard happened. Wasn't even at the stadium yesterday.
Speaker 1: The report was he wasn't feeling well. Mom. So we
Speaker 1: know that's a lot. Uh, But yeah, I kind of
Speaker 1: agree with Riddick. You know, I'd like to ask him
Speaker 1: a lot coming out of college. I thought it was
Speaker 1: gonna be really good. And you know, I'm not sure
Speaker 1: if he's s salvageable at this point or not, but
Speaker 1: you know, he has to go to the right team,
Speaker 1: right coach, get all that kind of stuff around them.
Speaker 1: By the way, let's me mention to Jacks. And I've
Speaker 1: always kind of been a little bit of a closet
Speaker 1: Giants fan, simply because of the vision earn in Okay.
Speaker 1: I grew up in Pittsburgh, so I hate the Cowboys. Uh.
Speaker 1: Growing up in Pittsburgh, my dad drilled into me we
Speaker 1: hate everything from Philadelphia. And then number three that the
Speaker 1: other team is the Washington football team owned by Daniel Snyder,
Speaker 1: one of the most despicable human beings I learned. So
Speaker 1: I kind of liked the Giant so I was rooting.
Speaker 1: You know, we needed them, but they got screwed out
Speaker 1: of two touchdowns yesterday on some pretty if I mean
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. We didn't touchdown on some pretty if he
Speaker 1: call one And I remember back and I threw it
Speaker 1: out there on Twitter, and a couple of guys remember
Speaker 1: just play back in the nineties they were playing the Giants,
Speaker 1: and I don't think it was a playoff game, I
Speaker 1: think we get it, and they had a big sweep
Speaker 1: around in and I think scored and they called a
Speaker 1: holding on Charles Way that I still have yet to
Speaker 1: see any hold whatsoever. And that was a total screw
Speaker 1: job with Dallas getting every call from the league, and
Speaker 1: carried through to yesterday again because the Giants gods screwed.
Speaker 1: And Christie keeps checking the Charles Wave video at least
Speaker 1: daily just to see if he find at the old
Speaker 1: every day you check out, yet I couldn't find it.
Speaker 1: Yes if somebody hasn't post it, well, well, the two
Speaker 1: yesterday that you're referring to, because I was watching both
Speaker 1: of them. The second one was the supposed pick. Okay, uh,
Speaker 1: you know that one. I'm not gonna make as big
Speaker 1: a deal of I guess, but it probably was a screwjob.
Speaker 1: The one before that, world was the fake field goal
Speaker 1: where the left tackle didn't put like a split. The
Speaker 1: left tackle put his hands on his thighs a fraction
Speaker 1: of a second after the snap right, so it was
Speaker 1: kind of a simultaneous thing. And if he doesn't put,
Speaker 1: if he doesn't go into that stance, then it's a flag.
Speaker 1: But the fact that they flagged. That was so unbelievably
Speaker 1: ticky tach. I was like, you've gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 1: They just wiped out this unbelievable fake field that which
Speaker 1: resulted in a touchdown and would have been a seven
Speaker 1: point Giants lead. And I looked at Joe Judge and
Speaker 1: I I gotta be honest with you. I felt terrible
Speaker 1: for that guy because I'm like, Wow, you can't win
Speaker 1: a game, and they are not letting you win a
Speaker 1: game either, are they? Like? It was brutal, brutal for
Speaker 1: Joe Judge and the Giants. And then the Cowboys end
Speaker 1: up winning that game. Geez, I'm with you. By the way,
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, who we'll get to the Dolphins soon. They
Speaker 1: end up crushing the Niners. But they didn't get any
Speaker 1: favors from the refs either. That's another story we'll get.
Speaker 1: We'll get into that here momentarily. What's next? Oh, you
Speaker 1: are opening at three? Okay, I see, I'll take that.
Speaker 1: Is you know what that screams to me. That screams
Speaker 1: to me tease the Washington football team to nine. What
Speaker 1: was the one you said? What was the one you said?
Speaker 1: Brown was at the Steelers? Browns at the Steelers a
Speaker 1: f C North clash four and one Browns four and
Speaker 1: oh Steelers. The Browns beat the Colts yesterday. Listen, Philip
Speaker 1: Rivers is terrible at football, and this should not be
Speaker 1: a news flash to anybody. He's been terrible at football
Speaker 1: now for a few years. Uh. Baker Mayfield one thirty
Speaker 1: seven for two forty seven, two touchdowns, two picks, uh
Speaker 1: and with sack once. Jarvis Landry was his number one
Speaker 1: target four for eight eight. The Browns were ten of
Speaker 1: seventeen on third downs. The supposedly great Colts defense couldn't
Speaker 1: get them off the field. Uh. Ben Roethlisberger and the
Speaker 1: Steelers win over the By the way, Cleveland won that
Speaker 1: game against Indianapolis by the score of thirty two to
Speaker 1: twenty three. They do it as one point closing favorites,
Speaker 1: and then Pittsburgh ends up beating Philadelphia and ends up
Speaker 1: covering thirty eight to twenty nine. That was a late cover.
Speaker 1: Big Men seven thirty four for two thirty nine, three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: No Pixie was sacked once. Chase clay Pool seven for
Speaker 1: one ten and three touchdowns through the air also had
Speaker 1: a touchdown on the ground. By the way, that guy
Speaker 1: on on red zone h Scott Hansen acted like he
Speaker 1: had never heard of Chase Claypool before. It was like,
Speaker 1: I do you have a new breakout star in the
Speaker 1: National Football League. We all said it on draft Day.
Speaker 1: What a great pick by the Steelers and Sloman College.
Speaker 1: You knew this was possible and and and the Steelers
Speaker 1: can pick themselves in whiteouts. Claypool four touchdowns total. The
Speaker 1: Steelers were eleven of fifteen on third downs against the Eagles.
Speaker 1: Eagles couldn't get them off the field. They did have
Speaker 1: eight penalties for eighty six yards. They got to clean
Speaker 1: that up. I'll say Pittsburgh minus six at home against
Speaker 1: the Browns. Well, let me just tell you. My power
Speaker 1: ratings have the Steelers one point better than clear. We
Speaker 1: got him, got to give him a little something from
Speaker 1: the home fit. I think they had. It made me
Speaker 1: a little bit of a different So right now he's
Speaker 1: three and a half and four. I can't tell you
Speaker 1: I think I liked the three and a half better. Uh,
Speaker 1: let's start with Pittsburgh. I've been saying since Week one
Speaker 1: something is wrong with this defense. Now we go through
Speaker 1: position by position, they should probably be the best defense
Speaker 1: in the league. And some of the some of the twitter,
Speaker 1: uh conversational last night from Pittsburgh people was they have
Speaker 1: lost a lot of confidence in Kevin and Butler, the
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator for the Steelers. You know, and I kind
Speaker 1: of have agreed with it. They should be much much better,
Speaker 1: but they're not doing enough to capitalize on the abundance
Speaker 1: of talent that they have. But this defense is nowhere
Speaker 1: near as good as last year. And who did the
Speaker 1: game Jonathan Vilma did the game history and he says, well,
Speaker 1: I as long as the Steelers can hold them, uh,
Speaker 1: they can score twenty points with their bonted defense, they'll
Speaker 1: be able to win the game. No, they'd be like,
Speaker 1: oh or one in four or own five with that
Speaker 1: vaunt the defense scoring twenty points. So you know, that
Speaker 1: was it was a terrible statement. And now I'll go
Speaker 1: on to Cleveland, and you know, for years, you know,
Speaker 1: people I know and trust to their opinions, but somebody
Speaker 1: is Cleveland team has a great roster, but they were
Speaker 1: missing certain things, and you could see the main thing
Speaker 1: they were missing was coaching. Okay, I think they solved
Speaker 1: that there and they have a great offensive line, you know,
Speaker 1: and I think Baker Mayfold has a chance to be
Speaker 1: a real good quarterback. We've got a lot of talent,
Speaker 1: but now he's that he's not the offensive line. Their
Speaker 1: defense still needs to get a little bit better. But
Speaker 1: you know, they that team is really good. They're finally
Speaker 1: I think, getting up to their potential. And you know
Speaker 1: I had Cleveland and every one of my contests yesterday,
Speaker 1: I really liked them a lot. And this team is good.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna open this game three and a half. This
Speaker 1: is gonna be a really really good game at a
Speaker 1: big test for the Steelers. And uh, I wouldn't be
Speaker 1: surprised if the Broms go in there and beat them.
Speaker 1: So what did you open this a three and a half? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm way off on that one way off. I had
Speaker 1: three and a half and four, but I like the
Speaker 1: three and a half better. Oh, I don't have that
Speaker 1: opinion of Pittsburgh, but you you laid it out pretty interestingly,
Speaker 1: and you are a Steelers guy. Go look at their
Speaker 1: defensive numbers, Gil, Yeah, forget the personnel. Their personnel is fantastic.
Speaker 1: They go look at their numbers. Kids not good in
Speaker 1: the least. Yeah, got away with the cover. That was
Speaker 1: one of my picks yesterday. I figure I got away
Speaker 1: with that cover because they got a late Uh. Because
Speaker 1: the reason, by the way, the reason that uh we
Speaker 1: got away with that cover. We haven't gotten to the
Speaker 1: to the Eagles yet. I was gonna save it for
Speaker 1: the Eagles talk, but I could just get it here
Speaker 1: and before the break, uh, the Eagles in that game,
Speaker 1: and I want to get the exact situation, correct time
Speaker 1: and distance. So fourth and fourth and five with over
Speaker 1: three minutes left. Listen, let's see, Chrissy, when you have
Speaker 1: the chance to kick a fifty seven yard field goal
Speaker 1: and fourth and five with just over three minutes left,
Speaker 1: three twenty three left to be exact, and the Steelers
Speaker 1: only needing a field goal to beat you even if
Speaker 1: you make it. Uh, you just gotta take that hot,
Speaker 1: don't you. Steel The Steelers were thirty one to twenty
Speaker 1: nine at that moment, and as soon as as soon
Speaker 1: as Doug Peterson rolled out the field goal unit on that,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, I'm gonna get this cover because
Speaker 1: he's gonna miss this field goal and I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: it down and the Steelers are gonna And that's exactly
Speaker 1: what happened. It's unbelievable with these coaches, what they do,
Speaker 1: like their decision making is so ridiculous. And these are
Speaker 1: the ones. These are not the retroactive. I'm very careful
Speaker 1: when I think people are saying stuff retroactively and a
Speaker 1: results are oriented. I'm careful to say that. I'll be
Speaker 1: honest with you what I think in the moment. These
Speaker 1: are the ones, in the moment where you're just screaming
Speaker 1: your head off. You're like, what is this team doing
Speaker 1: fifty seven years? What does that get you? Doesn't get
Speaker 1: you much? Yeah, it gets you the lead if you
Speaker 1: make it, but it's a very pyric victory at that
Speaker 1: point because it's like, are you still got three minutes
Speaker 1: left for big men to kill you? All you need
Speaker 1: to do is get back in field goal position. Um,
Speaker 1: we still got a whole bunch of games to get
Speaker 1: to and we will will update Survivor and everything coming back.
Speaker 1: Guessing lines Week six of the NFL with Chris Andrews
Speaker 1: right here in visa these Sports Betting Network. Chris Andrews
Speaker 1: is with us, of course my mission book, Chrissie, how
Speaker 1: many games are early next week or can you even
Speaker 1: make that assessment at this point? How many games are
Speaker 1: in the early window. There are two late games. I
Speaker 1: got nine early games, nine early and too late. Oh,
Speaker 1: they gotta move one of those. They gotta move one
Speaker 1: of those. Alright, what's next early? Then? H yeah, too late?
Speaker 1: Count that's weird, well because because on Monday and two
Speaker 1: on Monday. Two on Monday. Yeah, all right, what's next?
Speaker 1: Game next? We got the raven was at the Eagel.
Speaker 1: By the way, this all attribute to the old Stardust
Speaker 1: radio show that Roxy Roxbury Roxy Roxbury used to be
Speaker 1: a part of back in the day. So you said
Speaker 1: the Eagles, was that the one? Yeah? Uh, Ravens at
Speaker 1: the Eagles, Baltimore four and one. The Ravens get it
Speaker 1: done yesterday against Cincinnati. That was the only game I
Speaker 1: got wrong this weekend. In the contests, I had the
Speaker 1: Bengals and that proved to be a horrific pick on
Speaker 1: my part. Uh. Baltimore wins at twenty seven to three.
Speaker 1: They do so as twelve and a half point favorites.
Speaker 1: Bengals couldn't even get there. For teaser players and in Philadelphia,
Speaker 1: who we talked about with their game against Pittsburgh, which
Speaker 1: they end up losing by nine Pittsburgh covering the seven
Speaker 1: and a half because of that decision by Doug Peterson
Speaker 1: crew to try to kick a fifty seven yard field
Speaker 1: going fourth and five with three twenty three left, and
Speaker 1: even if they make it, the Steelers only would have
Speaker 1: needed to feel well to beat them. So Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: by the way and the win over Cincinnati nineteen thirty
Speaker 1: seven for one, two touchdowns, one pick in a sack.
Speaker 1: His UH targets Marquis Brown Hollywood six for seventy seven
Speaker 1: and touchdown Mark and Thinks six for fifty six and
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Carson Wentz and their defeat against the against
Speaker 1: the Steelers rather twenty of thirty five for two fifty eight,
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, two picks, he was sacked five times. Miles Sanders,
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh native, had a big day eleven of eight eleven
Speaker 1: four eighty rather two touchdowns, Travis Fulghum once again ten
Speaker 1: for one fifty two and a touchdown. Uh. The Eagles
Speaker 1: were ten of fourteen on third downs themselves against your
Speaker 1: Steelers defense. To your point, Chrissy Uh and the Eagles
Speaker 1: shot themselves in the foot a lot. Nine penalties for
Speaker 1: eighty four yards could have been very different that said, Uh,
Speaker 1: the one three and one Eagles, who are a half
Speaker 1: game out of the lead in the NFC East. I'll
Speaker 1: say Baltimore is a seven point favorite in this game. Hi,
Speaker 1: your shade light had seven and a half looking pretty
Speaker 1: much universal seven and a half. Uh, you know, once
Speaker 1: again my power ring has come higher, but diminishing returns
Speaker 1: as they always are in the NFL, particularly road favorites.
Speaker 1: But I thought Carson Wentz looked about as good as
Speaker 1: he has all year. Um, maybe that Steward defense helped him.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I like seven and a half.
Speaker 1: I think you've got to go over the seven in
Speaker 1: this game here, and I'm gonna start with seven and
Speaker 1: a half wise guys. I'm gonna sure the wise guys
Speaker 1: will jump in and take this one. I think it
Speaker 1: is Uh. I think you've got to be over seven
Speaker 1: here myself. All right, let's do another one Cincinnati at Indianapolis. Alright,
Speaker 1: as I mentioned, bad picked by me on Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: and the Bengals. Joe Burrow nineteen of thirty one, eight
Speaker 1: three no touchdowns. One picked again. He was sacked. He
Speaker 1: was sacked seven times. Like, give this guy some protection,
Speaker 1: My god, the Bengals only had two hundred and five
Speaker 1: total yards of offense against the Ravens. That's not good.
Speaker 1: It's not one oh eight like the Washington football team
Speaker 1: against the Rams, which is just comical. But it's two
Speaker 1: oh five against the UH the Ravens and in their defeats.
Speaker 1: So the Bengals fall to one three and one. And
Speaker 1: then there's Indianapolis, who I mentioned loss to the Browns.
Speaker 1: Colts are still three and two. Philip Rivers twenty one
Speaker 1: of thirty three for two forty three, no touchdowns, two picks,
Speaker 1: He was sacked once. Philip Rivers has not had a
Speaker 1: multi touchdown game this season yet. And the Colts defense,
Speaker 1: to my point earlier season high end points allowed thirty
Speaker 1: two and yards allowed three eight five. Skill Alexander, It's
Speaker 1: Chrisie Andrews. This is a numbers game here at Visa
Speaker 1: the Sports Betting Network Guessing lines for week number six,
Speaker 1: the weekly exercise where we hope you're playing as well
Speaker 1: an interactive game, if you will, where the object is
Speaker 1: to see what the guess is, see what Chrissy is
Speaker 1: actually posting, and hopefully in that exercise extracts some value.
Speaker 1: UH as you approach handicapping next weekend's NFL lines and
Speaker 1: NFL games. Uh, Cincinnati at Indianapolis, I will say it's
Speaker 1: the Cults and minus seven here, I will guess that timidly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: at seven half and eight mostly eight. Um, I have
Speaker 1: a Cult six points better on a neutral and I'm
Speaker 1: like you, I went for the Bengals yesterday, although like
Speaker 1: I said, I did have the Browns against Indianapolis on
Speaker 1: every one of my contest tickets. Um, you know, I
Speaker 1: think I got to seven and a half. And you know,
Speaker 1: for years go on this show, we talked about how
Speaker 1: the Chargers tend to do Chargery things blow games. Are
Speaker 1: we sure it's not Philip Rivers tend to do Philip
Speaker 1: rivers e things to blow games. And the more I
Speaker 1: look at it, I think that's the case. And I
Speaker 1: sent it from the beginning. I don't know why they
Speaker 1: traded for Philip Rivers. What I lived with Jacobe Brissette
Speaker 1: for a year. Maybe try to talk Andrew Luck out
Speaker 1: of retirement or draft a quarterback into the next draft.
Speaker 1: But Philip Rivers, and he's he's long in the tooth
Speaker 1: and he's been the most overrated quarterbacks for what like
Speaker 1: fifteen years now, and uh, I I don't know. I
Speaker 1: have no confidence in him. Seven half and eight. I'm
Speaker 1: using seven and a half. And I think you know,
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow played he really was barrible. He really. I
Speaker 1: know they didn't protect him. I understand that, but he
Speaker 1: really did not play well at all. But Philip Rivers
Speaker 1: before he's going to give you an opportunity to beat him.
Speaker 1: It seems like almost every week. And I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with seven and a half. Um, I don't know what
Speaker 1: I love so far on these lines. I think the
Speaker 1: Washington teaser I love so far, and I think Carolina
Speaker 1: was low. I think I like Carolina the most so far.
Speaker 1: This one here, Yeah, I mean Philip Rivers. You know,
Speaker 1: we brought it up on the megapod, the Beating the
Speaker 1: Book megapod, which we do live from the d each
Speaker 1: and every Thursday. Uh. The game we always bring up
Speaker 1: is the Chargers last year against the Broncos where the
Speaker 1: Chargers had the ball third down in plus territory late
Speaker 1: in the game and we were all on the charges
Speaker 1: and Philip Rivers just for no reason just threw the
Speaker 1: ball into the dirt like he just gave up on
Speaker 1: a play, like three, like three seconds into the play,
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, that read doesn't work by end of play,
Speaker 1: and they end up losing the game to the Broncos.
Speaker 1: And it was just like one of these perplexing places,
Speaker 1: like I'm never betting on this guy again. He short
Speaker 1: circuits where he just doesn't understand the context of the
Speaker 1: moment or I don't know what it is. But you
Speaker 1: may get your Jacoby Brissette sooner than later, Chrissie, you
Speaker 1: really might. Well, yeah, that's called for safety, for intentional
Speaker 1: grounding in the end zone. I mean, it was so
Speaker 1: obvious he drew it, like you know, we threw it
Speaker 1: eighty yards or whatever. But I mean, like way out abound,
Speaker 1: there's nobody anywhere in the vicinity. It's like the rest
Speaker 1: are looking like that your kid me. Of course you
Speaker 1: got to call this, jeez, you know. And at that
Speaker 1: point was still pretty close games. But I mean, he
Speaker 1: does does those kind of things, you know, he really did.
Speaker 1: All right, let's do another we're catching up. Okay, I
Speaker 1: want to interject something, but fours are disappearing on the
Speaker 1: Steelers and I'm I'm gonna go on record right now.
Speaker 1: I haven't feeling the wise guys are gonna be on
Speaker 1: the Browns in this game. Just you mark that down
Speaker 1: fours are disappearing which way they're going about three and
Speaker 1: a half. Okay, all right, yeah, I'm telling you the
Speaker 1: wise guys will be in the Browns in this game,
Speaker 1: and I think they might have the read idea. Wow,
Speaker 1: you are really okay? Okay, uh yeah, I am. Packers
Speaker 1: at the Buccaneers. Not a great quarterback back up, by
Speaker 1: the way, but this should be a lot of fun
Speaker 1: to watch. Packers at the Bucketeer, Packers and Buckets. This
Speaker 1: still an early game. Is the first la is the
Speaker 1: first first? Okay? Um? I want to do the whole
Speaker 1: Domino effect here after this. Packers at at Buccaneers. Packers
Speaker 1: are four and oh, coming off a bye week now
Speaker 1: for this one at Tampa Bay. Who's got extra rest
Speaker 1: themselves having lost to the Bears this past Thursday night.
Speaker 1: Packers of four and oh, Bucks of three and two.
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and that loss to the Bears was forty
Speaker 1: one for two fifty three one touchdown. Note picks sack
Speaker 1: three times and his people like to say the senior
Speaker 1: moment that he had there late Daniel, excuse me, not
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, but Ronald Jones the second seventeen carries for
Speaker 1: one oh six. Bucks penalized all over the field eleven
Speaker 1: for one oh nine in that game. And as uh,
Speaker 1: what we're referring to is that Brady appeared to lose
Speaker 1: count of downs on his final play with seconds remaining,
Speaker 1: and the Bears beat the Bucks twenty to nineteen after
Speaker 1: Cairo Cairo santos Is thirty eight yard field goal with
Speaker 1: one seventeen remaining. And as I said earlier when talking
Speaker 1: about the Bears, they shouldn't have had the Bucks shouldn't
Speaker 1: have had one seventeen remaining because Matt Naggy didn't understand
Speaker 1: again the game situation at the end. He could have
Speaker 1: led the clock down a lot more. Uh. DeAndre Houston
Speaker 1: Carson broke up Brady's fourth down US with thirty three
Speaker 1: seconds left after santos Is a go ahead field goal.
Speaker 1: Brady put up four fingers, you know the rest of it.
Speaker 1: It was actually fifth down, so it doesn't count. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you know that about football. Nose tackle
Speaker 1: Vida Veya taken from the field on a cart with
Speaker 1: less than two minutes remaining after teammate rolled up on
Speaker 1: his right leg as well. I will say Green Bay.
Speaker 1: I'll give green basic respect here, put some respect on
Speaker 1: their name, as the kids like to say. But I
Speaker 1: won't give him a full field goal. I'll say mine
Speaker 1: is two and a half. Yeah, actually you're a little high.
Speaker 1: It's one and a half. I see it two out there.
Speaker 1: My numbers come the uh through Packers three with no
Speaker 1: home field advantage. I mean to give the Bucks a
Speaker 1: little bit, so I have no beef at the one
Speaker 1: and a half. Um, But I gotta tell you I
Speaker 1: have the Packers hid like within two points of the
Speaker 1: best team in the league. You know, this is a good,
Speaker 1: good team right now, and uh you know they're they're
Speaker 1: playing great and I'm really looking forward to this matchup.
Speaker 1: This really should be a lot of fun to watch.
Speaker 1: All right, let's do one more here, the Rams at
Speaker 1: Rams at the forty Niners. Okay, Sunday night game. This
Speaker 1: is a Sunday night game. Next week. We've already gotten
Speaker 1: a Sunday night game. We're in the there's two more
Speaker 1: Sunday games after this. Okay, Well they'll do it out
Speaker 1: of order. So Rams at Niners Rams four and one, nine,
Speaker 1: two and three. Now the the Niners loss yesterday was
Speaker 1: the biggest Survivor killer yesterday. Survivor at Circa our buddies
Speaker 1: over at Circle, Derrick Stevens and Mike Palm. They started
Speaker 1: their their inaugural Survivor contest this year with ninety entries.
Speaker 1: Before this week they had six hundred and twenty nine left.
Speaker 1: After the early games yesterday they had five hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy one left because the Chiefs had lost, the Bucks
Speaker 1: had lost on Thursday, but that didn't take out many,
Speaker 1: and the Falcons had lost too. By the way, the
Speaker 1: Patriots postponement means everybody who had the Patriots got knocked
Speaker 1: out too, and the Bills, because that's right, they play
Speaker 1: after two am on Tuesday. Obviously that that pick got
Speaker 1: knocked out too. But it was the forty Niners loss.
Speaker 1: The forty Niners who had one hundred and sixty eight
Speaker 1: selections of the six twenty nine that went into the weekend,
Speaker 1: that's what really dropped it. So more than twenty of
Speaker 1: all entries headed into this weekend die with the Niners,
Speaker 1: and I think we have going into tonight we have
Speaker 1: four oh three left, so less than thirty percent of
Speaker 1: the original And if the Saints lose tonight, it dips
Speaker 1: to below because seventy seven people are on the Saints
Speaker 1: and Michael Thomas is out. We said that at the
Speaker 1: top of the show because of an altercation, not because
Speaker 1: of the injury. Alright, So as far as the Niners,
Speaker 1: then the Niners get absolutely boat raced, and I do
Speaker 1: mean boat raced by the Miami Dolphins, which is one
Speaker 1: of my picks in UH. In the contest forty three
Speaker 1: to seventeen, forty three to seventeen. The Niners get rolled
Speaker 1: in this game. Um, Jimmy Garoppolo seven of seventeen for
Speaker 1: seventy seven yards in the first half, no touchdowns, two picks.
Speaker 1: He was sacked three times. That's a fifteen point seven
Speaker 1: passer rating, a career low. That's at a one fifty
Speaker 1: eight point three fifteen point seven for Garoppolo, and he
Speaker 1: was put on the bench for what Kyle Shannon Shanahan
Speaker 1: described as we're just trying to protect him, right right, right,
Speaker 1: right right. C. J. Bethard came in. He was nine
Speaker 1: of eighteen for ninety four one touchdown note picks, UH,
Speaker 1: two sacks. The Niners were two of ten on third down.
Speaker 1: They were oh of two on fourth down. They only
Speaker 1: had two fifty nine total yards of offense. They were
Speaker 1: minus three in turn of zero for the Dolphins, three
Speaker 1: for the Niners, and they only had the ball twenty
Speaker 1: three minutes and seven seconds. Is any of that any good?
Speaker 1: The Niners are oh and three at home this year
Speaker 1: and two and oh at MetLife. That's their record this year,
Speaker 1: two and oh and MetLife, oh and three at home
Speaker 1: and even and the and the and the officials didn't
Speaker 1: help them out either. There was or didn't help out
Speaker 1: the Dolphins either. There was a play on one of
Speaker 1: the two forty Niners touchdown drives where the officials completely
Speaker 1: let the let the Niners off the hook because they
Speaker 1: called this very vague helmet to helmet on one of
Speaker 1: the Dolphins defenders on third down. Niners should have been
Speaker 1: off the field. This game could have easily been worse
Speaker 1: forty three to seventeen Dolphins. As far as the Rams,
Speaker 1: they beat the Washington football team, as we said, golf
Speaker 1: was twenty one of thirty for three o nine, two touchdowns,
Speaker 1: one pick, one sack. They had the ball. Did the
Speaker 1: Rams thirty five minutes and thirty five seconds against Washington?
Speaker 1: Who I said who I had mentioned earlier, had had
Speaker 1: only one eight total yards of offense. So the Rams
Speaker 1: just feasting on the NFC East Rams at niners. At
Speaker 1: this point, the Rams have got to be favorites. Will
Speaker 1: be the full three? I don't know. I'll say minus
Speaker 1: two and a half here as well. Well, my numbers
Speaker 1: come to three and a half Rams with no home
Speaker 1: field advantage, and I am not giving them any home
Speaker 1: field advantage. Like you just said, they're owing three at
Speaker 1: home and they've never had much since they moved to
Speaker 1: that new stadium. So I like the three and a half.
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, I'm looking at my numbers.
Speaker 1: You know what Jimmy g s q b R was yesterday?
Speaker 1: One point four one point and a passerrating of fifty
Speaker 1: seven at one point. Yeah, yeah, not good. Some of
Speaker 1: the worst numbers I've ever seen ever. Man. That's that's
Speaker 1: I mean, that's bad. That's like Blake Bortles type numbers
Speaker 1: right there. Sorry, Blake. I shouldn't we apologize, Yeah I do.
Speaker 1: I shouldn't mentioned that anyway. I like the three and half,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you right now. And there are two teams
Speaker 1: going into this season, but I thought were ignored or
Speaker 1: downgraded for no real apparent reason, the Titans being one
Speaker 1: and the Rams being the other. I mean, there's still
Speaker 1: a pretty good team, this Ram team. Uh. And you know,
Speaker 1: I think they're definitely a contender. And I like him
Speaker 1: this week, but you know, anything under three and a half,
Speaker 1: I would be looking to play the Rams. A lot
Speaker 1: of people went with the Niners, boy, and that a
Speaker 1: lot of people will stake their survivor claim on the nights.
Speaker 1: Let's le's start squeezing one more here before the break.
Speaker 1: We have the Jets at the Dolphins, and there's a
Speaker 1: one o'clock game, there's an afternoon game. Okay, so this
Speaker 1: is where we get to the point where we have
Speaker 1: to talk about the domino effect. So, because because the
Speaker 1: New England Denver game got postponed, uh, here's what happened. Now,
Speaker 1: this is all. It makes some people's heads explode, but
Speaker 1: if you do it in the proper order, it makes
Speaker 1: it shows you the exact domino. So New England getting
Speaker 1: postponed against Denver causes this effect. New England Denver goes
Speaker 1: from this coming week two. Excuse me, New England Denver
Speaker 1: rather goes, uh gets postponed to next week. What that
Speaker 1: does is unseat the Broncos previously previously scheduled game against
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, So the Dolphins Broncos moves from week six
Speaker 1: to week eleven. That unseats the Broncos game that was
Speaker 1: originally scheduled for Week eleven against the Chargers. That Charges
Speaker 1: Broncos game moves from week eleven to week eight. That
Speaker 1: unseats the Chargers game that was originally scheduled for Week
Speaker 1: eight against the Jaguars, So that moves from week eight
Speaker 1: to week seven, which on seats the Chargers game on
Speaker 1: week seven were originally scheduled against the Dolphins. That moves
Speaker 1: from week seven to week ten, which on seats the
Speaker 1: Dolphins game that was originally scheduled for Week ten, Jets
Speaker 1: Dolphins game, which moves from week ten back to this week,
Speaker 1: which is the game you just brought up, Which means
Speaker 1: that the Jets Chargers game originally scheduled for this weekend
Speaker 1: moves from week six to week eleven. Got all that? Wait,
Speaker 1: there's more? Is there more? Where's that? All of them?
Speaker 1: That's it? So one postponement causes this domino effect of
Speaker 1: games where the NFL has just had to all right, well,
Speaker 1: if that moves to there, that has to move to
Speaker 1: their If that moves to there, that has to move there.
Speaker 1: And they go on and do this. So I used
Speaker 1: to I say this during baseball season all the time
Speaker 1: with pictures when they have stats that are unsustainable, I
Speaker 1: sing the old uh nat king cole unforgettable tune. This
Speaker 1: is unsustainable, sustainable, this like, you can't keep doing this
Speaker 1: and expect for this to work out, Like not everything
Speaker 1: is gonna have eight perfect steps right where where this
Speaker 1: is all going to get reshuffled. But mostly the Chargers
Speaker 1: that got reshuffled, and they're not even playing in the game.
Speaker 1: And that's a great point what Jason just said. The
Speaker 1: Chargers have nothing to do with any of this, and
Speaker 1: they've got a whole bunch of games reshuffled. And most importantly,
Speaker 1: like the Steelers were come planning about last week, the
Speaker 1: Chargers don't get there by later when they'd more favorably
Speaker 1: have it, because you supposedly would have more injuries later
Speaker 1: in the season. The Chargers get there by now, even
Speaker 1: though the Chargers do have injuries obviously with Gerard Taylor
Speaker 1: and Austin Ekeler and all that. But so they innocent
Speaker 1: bystander are the most affected by all of this. So
Speaker 1: the game that in all of that ends up being
Speaker 1: in Week six is the one you just mentioned. The
Speaker 1: Jets at the Dolphins, Lord jetso and five, they get
Speaker 1: crushed by the Cardinals. That was my survivor pick. I
Speaker 1: also had the Cardinals in the contest. Joe Flacco eighteen
Speaker 1: of thirty three for one touchdown, no picks. He was
Speaker 1: sacked twice. Jamison Crowder was his biggest target eight for
Speaker 1: one sixteen and a touchdown, but they gave up four
Speaker 1: hundred ninety six total yards to the Cardinals. And then
Speaker 1: Miami against the Niners, we already talked about that destruction.
Speaker 1: They scored on nine of twelve possessions. Ryan Fitzpatrick was
Speaker 1: two twenty eight for three fitty three touchdowns, no picks.
Speaker 1: He was only sacked twice. Preston Williams was his biggest
Speaker 1: target for for one of six in a touchdown. Sick
Speaker 1: Davante to for fifty and a touchdown. Miami had the
Speaker 1: ball thirty six fifty three and we're plus three in turnovers.
Speaker 1: That was Ryan Fitzpatrick's way of saying, to keep your
Speaker 1: seat on the bench. I'm gonna say Miami minus seven
Speaker 1: and a half, and I might be low. Chrissie hold
Speaker 1: the number because we gotta take a break. But that's
Speaker 1: the reshuffling, Boil Boil boys. It's gonna be a fascinating
Speaker 1: NFL season. So my guess would be Miami minus seven
Speaker 1: and a half. We'll get back to that. It's all
Speaker 1: brought to you by bet mg mw Okay, we got
Speaker 1: a few more things to get to here. First of all, Jason,
Speaker 1: congratulations on your Lakers winning the NBA championship. There se
Speaker 1: NBA championship, which ties them with the Boston Celtics for
Speaker 1: the most ever. The Lakers do it by virtue of
Speaker 1: a game that was over by halftime, and I'm being
Speaker 1: kind one of the final score does not do the
Speaker 1: blowout justice Lakers and six. They should have they should
Speaker 1: have won it in five, but we'll take six. And uh,
Speaker 1: I guess we'll just get the parade whenever the parade happens.
Speaker 1: And you were making the point off air that it's
Speaker 1: kind of a drag that the Lakers win and they
Speaker 1: don't get to celebrate. The people in Los Angeles don't
Speaker 1: get to celebrate. Uh. As a group, they actually took
Speaker 1: people away from the Staples Center yesterday. And it looks
Speaker 1: like the Dodgers are in the the kappird seat. And
Speaker 1: and uh, it might be another another championship that the
Speaker 1: city of l A just doesn't get celebrated. Crimere River
Speaker 1: I speak on behalf of everybody outside of l A. Well,
Speaker 1: there's definitely some sad people in l A about it.
Speaker 1: Here's Irvan Magic Johnson putting it all in context for us.
Speaker 1: The world champion Lakers dominated the heat with their swarming
Speaker 1: defense and controlled the heat perimeter players Hero Robinson and Butler.
Speaker 1: They're smothering defense turned into fast brakes on offense. That's
Speaker 1: why they blew out the heat. Easy to say after
Speaker 1: you walk away from the team. Well, I'm just I mean,
Speaker 1: he's taken, He's I don't know, it's uh, we'll see
Speaker 1: how today shakes out. Okay, congratulations to you, sir. What
Speaker 1: would you put your your enthusiasm versus my ego swattech enthusiasms. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, let's get back to this. Uh. Chris Felika texting,
Speaker 1: by the way, Uh, Chrissy, as you saw Chris Fleika
Speaker 1: texting a tradition unlike any other he is in line
Speaker 1: his protocol COVID test while listening to guessing line. So
Speaker 1: we appreciate that. And then the great Britton musburger uh
Speaker 1: texting listening to you and Chrissy as I drive to
Speaker 1: Montana for bye week? Great stuff. How about those Raiders
Speaker 1: throw that in there? Thank you, Brett. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I appreciate both of you. Guys. Um, all right, so
Speaker 1: it's Miami and the Jets. This is what at Miami?
Speaker 1: Miami now two and three. I guessed seven and a half.
Speaker 1: Every good talking about this game for about half an hour.
Speaker 1: But let's I'm gonna open to the Dolphins eight. My
Speaker 1: numbers come alive, Hire, but again I'm looking at diminishing returns.
Speaker 1: Take an out a drink there, Randall, uh kind of
Speaker 1: gates okay, but I'm gonna use as high as I
Speaker 1: can right now. Eights dies see one seven half? But
Speaker 1: eight is going to be the number. But if it
Speaker 1: goes higher, the Jets are just so bad. And one
Speaker 1: of the guys said, yeah, it looks like if they're
Speaker 1: tanking for Trevor keeping Adam Gaves as your head coach,
Speaker 1: who would be a brilliant What was that there? Was
Speaker 1: a play in that game. Yesterday again, I had the
Speaker 1: Cardinals and survivor Cardinals and the contest, and it was
Speaker 1: in the first half. And I'm gonna get the details
Speaker 1: on this role because I didn't write these down, but
Speaker 1: it was the Jets had a third and short and
Speaker 1: Frank or it was. It was a third and short
Speaker 1: and Frank Gore was on the sidelines. They weren't using him.
Speaker 1: And I could see Frank Gore's face, you can almost
Speaker 1: see the bubble over face over his head. He was like,
Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm not in this game. And of
Speaker 1: course they in the ball right to the line at
Speaker 1: scrimmage and they do it twice in a row. And
Speaker 1: then that's when you kind of knew the Cardinals are
Speaker 1: gonna be fine in this game. It's not gonna happen
Speaker 1: for the Gips. Um okay, what's next next? We going
Speaker 1: back to a morning game and there you know, I
Speaker 1: guess listen, there's no numbers on this game. It's Denver
Speaker 1: at New England, and I think everybody's just waiting to see,
Speaker 1: you know, what's going on with um uh, with Cam
Speaker 1: Newton and what is their next game? I can I've
Speaker 1: lost track of everything. You know, they played win. Um,
Speaker 1: that's the next Denver New England is the next game
Speaker 1: that's on week six, because this is the one that
Speaker 1: was postponed from this week. Remember this, This game was
Speaker 1: postponed from Sunday to Monday, I believe, and then from
Speaker 1: Monday to next week. And that's the game that started
Speaker 1: all of that today, right, Okay, So you're right, we
Speaker 1: don't know if Cam Newton's playing or not. You would
Speaker 1: think with every delay that would be more and more
Speaker 1: of a chance that Cam would play. And when last
Speaker 1: we saw Denver, they were beating the Jets, not this
Speaker 1: past Thursday night, but last the Thursday night before this
Speaker 1: last Thursday night. So it's just like, you know, Denver
Speaker 1: is gonna be on Monster Rest, just like New England.
Speaker 1: So that cancels out. Um. That was the game where
Speaker 1: Brett Rippon went nineteen of thirty one for two forty
Speaker 1: two and two touchdowns and three picks. But Denver managed
Speaker 1: to beat the Jets and then the Patriots. Like you
Speaker 1: can't even remember, right, you can't even remember the last
Speaker 1: time these teams. You're like, oh, that was the game
Speaker 1: where Melvin Gordon had that late touchdown to beat Jets
Speaker 1: Teasers on that Thursday night. But you're right, there shouldn't
Speaker 1: be a line because we don't know it's playing starting
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Patriots at that point, all right, so
Speaker 1: that should leave with more So we got both on
Speaker 1: Monday of next week. Okay, what are the originally the
Speaker 1: way just the rotation is the originally this is a
Speaker 1: late game five fifteen star originally scheduled I think Arizona
Speaker 1: at Dallas. Arizona at Dallas. So this is a week
Speaker 1: next week that should have had buys for the Raiders,
Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Saints, and the Seahawks. Instead it will
Speaker 1: be the Raiders, the Chargers, the Saints, and the Seahawks.
Speaker 1: But Arizona at Dallas is a Monday night game. Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray and Arizona coming off there went over the Jets.
Speaker 1: Murray thirty seven for three eighty one touchdown, one pick.
Speaker 1: He was sacked once. He also, of course, had a
Speaker 1: touchdown on the ground. That's what he does. Nine for
Speaker 1: thirty one in a touchdown on the ground. DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: back to being back to filling up the statue six
Speaker 1: for one, thirty one in a touchdown. What a couple
Speaker 1: of plays he made on a touchdown drive for the Cardinals.
Speaker 1: Four hundred ninety six total yards of offense for the Cardinals,
Speaker 1: ten penalties for fifty nine yards, so they got to
Speaker 1: clean that up. And then there's Dallas. And as happy
Speaker 1: as we were with Alex Smith making his triumphant return
Speaker 1: after two years, then it happened to Dak Dak Prescott
Speaker 1: fourteen twenty one for one st no touchdowns, one pick
Speaker 1: in a sack. But he ran the ball in the
Speaker 1: third quarter of this game and got a gruesome, gruesome
Speaker 1: injury compound fracture of the right ankle. He had surgery
Speaker 1: last night. He was scheduled to play or is playing
Speaker 1: on a franchise tag. Were thirty one point four million dollars.
Speaker 1: Didn't strike a long term deal with Jerry Jones in
Speaker 1: the off season. It just it was just heartbreaking because
Speaker 1: like with Tony Romo and I don't care if you're
Speaker 1: the biggest Cowboys hater. I'm a fan of the Washington
Speaker 1: football team growing up. No one hated the Cowboys as
Speaker 1: much as I did. But guys like Tony Romo and
Speaker 1: Dak we get tweets. Jacon Cohn, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you know that we get tweets at beating the book,
Speaker 1: always appreciate the feedback. Uh this morning, let's see here
Speaker 1: Matt Russell talking about I know in we all live
Speaker 1: for analyzing the analytics and coaching decisions. I do too,
Speaker 1: but other than quarterbacks, we rarely analyze the players anymore.
Speaker 1: Madison had acreage to his right and easily gets the
Speaker 1: first down with even a little vision. Obviously Cook injury hurt. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I mentioned that, mentioned it absolutely that. Uh, we are
Speaker 1: results oriented off in times, and he did have a path.
Speaker 1: But if I'm being honest, I thought they should have
Speaker 1: done the quarterback sneak at that moment um. And I
Speaker 1: wasn't wanting them to do another play. I was like,
Speaker 1: sneak it or kick the field goal one or the other.
Speaker 1: But you're right, he could he could have easily have
Speaker 1: it had it trip temper early window for Fox is
Speaker 1: really weak. On Sunday, CBS may not want to move
Speaker 1: the Brown Steelers or Ravens Eagles to the late window.
Speaker 1: Foxes Brady Rogers at four five Eastern, which will bury
Speaker 1: all late window games. Maybe the league makes a call
Speaker 1: to move a game from one pm to four twenty five,
Speaker 1: but I doubt it trip. I'm tripping because I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know anymore. It's hard enough to do guessing
Speaker 1: lines now because we have no idea what time games
Speaker 1: are at raj Body, Hey, producer number seven, that's you, Jason.
Speaker 1: Remember your first hot girlfriend and how you couldn't stop
Speaker 1: thinking and talking about I'm setting the over under it
Speaker 1: four and a half on a number of days this
Speaker 1: week that Gil mentioned zgas Vazek his real girlfriend takes
Speaker 1: a back seat for a little while. That is both
Speaker 1: funny and creepy, all simultaneously. Um smarty party. I think
Speaker 1: Whitey Ford paddle last week, Yes we mentioned him. Uh
Speaker 1: and let's see here, uh Andy gambling engineer. I don't
Speaker 1: know what's right or wrong with regard to the Vikings
Speaker 1: decision last night, but it doesn't make sense to me
Speaker 1: that people fear the opposing quarterback if the team needs
Speaker 1: a field goal, but not if he needs a touchdown.
Speaker 1: The only way to keep the quarterback you're scared of
Speaker 1: out of the equation, And he said, dot dot dot
Speaker 1: um is exactly what the Vikings tried to do. Again,
Speaker 1: my favorite the snake. But I hear what you're saying.
Speaker 1: But I also hear what Chrissy was saying, which is,
Speaker 1: does the do the analytics factor in the fact that
Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson and not the other and not the
Speaker 1: other players, Chrissie Andrews is here, my Chrissy, where did
Speaker 1: we leave off? For God's sakes, it's also Arizona, Dallas.
Speaker 1: So about Dak Prescott's By the way, let me interrupt
Speaker 1: one place. I'm I'm gonna go over four and a
Speaker 1: half days mentioned were for every survivor picked that I've
Speaker 1: ever had in my life. It's over four and a
Speaker 1: half for show and well earned. Thank you, Jason. If
Speaker 1: if ever there was a moment to mention her every
Speaker 1: time this week, every time in a week, this would
Speaker 1: be that week. It's over for sure. Over has happened. Uh,
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, it was just so heartbreaking to see him
Speaker 1: him go off the field. Um, Andy Dalton came in.
Speaker 1: Now I think Dallas. You know, it could be argued
Speaker 1: Dallas has the best backup quarterback in the league on
Speaker 1: paper and Andy Dalton nine of eleven he was for
Speaker 1: a hundred eleven yards yesterday, no touchdowns, no picks, and
Speaker 1: a sack Zeke n two touchdowns and Ceedee Lamb eight
Speaker 1: for one four. So Dallas ends up winning it against
Speaker 1: the Giants, and we've he talked about how the Giants
Speaker 1: kind of got the worst of it from officials, not once,
Speaker 1: but twice. They lose it to the Giants. Cowboys win
Speaker 1: thirty seven thirty four. They do not cover a seven
Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. They now are on top
Speaker 1: of the NFC East with a two in three record.
Speaker 1: But again it will be Andy Dalton and not Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott moving forward. And I will say this, that game
Speaker 1: winning drive, that that field goal to win it for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Talked about DeAndre Hopkins making two great plays
Speaker 1: on a drive for the Cardinals yesterday, Michael Gallup made
Speaker 1: about the two greatest sideline catches you could ever see
Speaker 1: consecutively on a game deciding drive. That was unbelievable. How
Speaker 1: he was able to corral the football twice while staying
Speaker 1: in bounds on two passes from Andy Dalton. So the
Speaker 1: Cowboys get it done. It's Arizona at Dallas. That said
Speaker 1: Arizona should be a favorite. I'll do my two and
Speaker 1: a half thing. I don't think it should be a
Speaker 1: full field goal, but I'll say Arizona minus two and
Speaker 1: a half because that Dallas defense still is no good,
Speaker 1: no good. And if Daniel Jones was any good apologies
Speaker 1: to Daniel Jones at his family, but if he was
Speaker 1: any good, Giants should have won that game. You know,
Speaker 1: going away, it's two and a half juice on the favorite,
Speaker 1: three juice on the dog. I'm gonna open two and
Speaker 1: a half. And i gotta tell you I love Dallas
Speaker 1: in this spot, you know, And it was one of
Speaker 1: the things humans and I were talking about last night.
Speaker 1: I'm only lower in my power ready two points on
Speaker 1: Dallas because I think Andy Dalton, we'll be able to
Speaker 1: utilize the many offensive weapons that Dallas has. Any other
Speaker 1: defense those things, you know, he's not gonna be able
Speaker 1: to play safety or any but you know, I think
Speaker 1: this team will really rally, especially a first game off
Speaker 1: of an injury, off of a major injury like that.
Speaker 1: I think they'd come out and really play it hard
Speaker 1: on a Monday night. And this is the first name
Speaker 1: that say I really love I love Dallas in the spot.
Speaker 1: I'm open to an alf Okay, what's the last gotta be?
Speaker 1: The gotta be the Raiders or kids. The Raiders are
Speaker 1: on buy. So it's gotta be a Kansas City game, right,
Speaker 1: Chiefs Bills. You know, I hate to end on a
Speaker 1: note like this. There's hardly any numbers. It's a Chiefs
Speaker 1: at the Bills. Chief said the Bills. Chiefs lose to
Speaker 1: the Raiders. And that's what Brent was so excited about,
Speaker 1: and rightfully so, I mean again, let me just stand
Speaker 1: up and raise my hand for the you know who,
Speaker 1: for anybody who made fun of John Gruden and all
Speaker 1: those trade like the Khalil Mack trade, which which was
Speaker 1: ridiculous it seemed like at the time, and all the
Speaker 1: other moves that he made, and said, oh my god,
Speaker 1: they got ten years in this guy. Raiders forty, Chiefs
Speaker 1: thirty two, and by the way, probably wasn't that close.
Speaker 1: Raiders go in and snap the Chiefs thirteen game win
Speaker 1: streak including the playoffs. Patrick Mahomes was two forty three
Speaker 1: for three, forty two touchdowns, one pick. He was sacked
Speaker 1: three times, and this, most importantly is the first. I
Speaker 1: don't know about most importantly, but it's an interesting detail
Speaker 1: from a gambling perspective. It's the first Patrick Homes loss
Speaker 1: as a pro by more than one score. Think about that,
Speaker 1: the first time Mahomes has lost as a pro by
Speaker 1: eight plus points, by more than eight double digits. Yeah.
Speaker 1: In the process, they were favored by what in the
Speaker 1: end of that game ten Yeah, ten on the button
Speaker 1: Kelsey eight for one to wait in a touchdown Tyreek
Speaker 1: three for seventy eight also a touchdown on the ground,
Speaker 1: but ten penalties for the Chiefs for ninety four yards.
Speaker 1: The Raiders were seven of fourteen on third downs, They
Speaker 1: were two of two on fourth downs, had four hundred
Speaker 1: and ninety total yards of offense, and held the ball
Speaker 1: for thirty five minutes and seventeen seconds and even bigger
Speaker 1: domination of the football in the first half, more so
Speaker 1: even than that that full game number. So good for
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Congratulations to the Raiders who are now three
Speaker 1: and two and maybe a playoff contender. So give it
Speaker 1: up for the Las Vegas Raiders. By the way it
Speaker 1: half time, Derek Carr was eleven of thirteen for two
Speaker 1: forty six, three touchdowns, one pick and a stack before
Speaker 1: the game two thirty one for three forty seven. Jacobs
Speaker 1: seventy seven for two touchdowns against the Chiefs. Rugs. What
Speaker 1: a difference. He makes two for one eighteen and touchdown
Speaker 1: the Raiders first win at case seasons. So if you're
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and that's your first loss of the season, look,
Speaker 1: you're still you know, you're still the super Bowl champion,
Speaker 1: and you're still probably the best team in the NFL.
Speaker 1: I don't think that takes you away from that throne.
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Not a good performance. And now
Speaker 1: you're going to Buffalo. Buffalo is undefeated. I guess the
Speaker 1: Chiefs will be three point favorites, Chrissy, just out of
Speaker 1: the respect. But I'd imagine there'll be a lot of
Speaker 1: Buffalo money here even on Now, let me get this straight.
Speaker 1: Buffalo is playing Tuesday tomorrow, So Buffalo is on short rest. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Kansas City minus three not that short, but still short.
Speaker 1: I always see a few numbers out there, but it
Speaker 1: is three, is what I see. I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I have a lot of respect for Buffalo. Three would
Speaker 1: be a take for me. So I'm gonna open three
Speaker 1: is a placeholder, just to keep an eye on it. Uh,
Speaker 1: But I'm keeping an eye on it. If I see
Speaker 1: it's skew lower, I'm going lower because I think Buffalo,
Speaker 1: Buffalo plus three would be a take. Yeah, I definitely
Speaker 1: think that. Yeah, that's good. There's a good team, real
Speaker 1: good team, and there's a kind of game they've been
Speaker 1: waiting for it just like this, So I like them.
Speaker 1: So when all is said and done, and this is
Speaker 1: this was the in many ways the most the most
Speaker 1: odd guessing lines to ever get through because we we
Speaker 1: had to completely get in her mind, like who's playing
Speaker 1: in win? Are they playing that sort of thing? And
Speaker 1: I'll just say it again, I left the air a
Speaker 1: couple of days last week. I bet baseball and tennis
Speaker 1: or with scream Ega because it's just my constant way
Speaker 1: of of trying to get to the listeners, Like there
Speaker 1: are easier ways to make money than betting on the
Speaker 1: National Football League. And here's how quirky the NFL is.
Speaker 1: I hated that card last week and that was by
Speaker 1: far my best week of the year against the spread,
Speaker 1: Like there's just no rhyme for a reason to the
Speaker 1: National Football League. Um so on this one, chrissie, what
Speaker 1: did what did you like the best? If you're betting, well,
Speaker 1: I got well. I like Dallas. I think they beat Arizona.
Speaker 1: I think they come up big man next Monday Night.
Speaker 1: I think Dallas and if if we settle on three,
Speaker 1: as case see the number over Buffalo, I'm definitely not
Speaker 1: like Buffalo. So those are two, Uh that I so
Speaker 1: to home dogs on Monday Night. That's that's kind of
Speaker 1: like the old system from the seventies, probably, but I
Speaker 1: would like both home dogs on Monday Night. Those are
Speaker 1: the two I like this. But I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look at this Cleveland game, and uh, I've
Speaker 1: said that I think that the Wise guys are gonna
Speaker 1: be on the dog in this game. I'm not telling
Speaker 1: you the winner, but I'm telling you wise guys are
Speaker 1: gonna play Cleveland, and I think they have the right idea.
Speaker 1: Anything over the three I think would be a take
Speaker 1: for me on Cleveland. I like Carolina. I had three
Speaker 1: and a half. You said it was two and a
Speaker 1: half again the Bears. U I'd like Washington and a
Speaker 1: teaser if it teas him up to nine. I don't
Speaker 1: know if I love him against the number, but I
Speaker 1: certainly love him in a teaser. Um, you should I
Speaker 1: go back to the Bengals. Well again getting seven against
Speaker 1: the Colts, I think I might I like them too,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna put a question mark there because
Speaker 1: that's the worst game they played all year, but playing
Speaker 1: the cold So I don't know that that looks like
Speaker 1: a good take to me too. Yeah, I think those
Speaker 1: are the ones I like the most. The rest of them, Like,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I like Miami against the Jets, but now
Speaker 1: they're a big favorite, So I don't know if I
Speaker 1: you know, and it's not really a betting situation for me. Uh,
Speaker 1: gonna be fascinating. It's gonna be fascinating tonight with the
Speaker 1: Chargers in the States satuated by seven, but no Michael
Speaker 1: Thomas has been mentioned. It's gonna be fascinating because they
Speaker 1: gained this chanty if they get this game off tomorrow
Speaker 1: between the Bills and the Titans. Thank you, Chrissie, as always, man,
Speaker 1: my pleasure, Gil always a play guessing lines for Week
Speaker 1: six in the National Football League. Good luck with baseball
Speaker 1: today from all of us at best in these sports
