Speaker 1: Hey there, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of the
Speaker 1: Betting Pros NFL podcast. I'm your host Dan Harris with
Speaker 1: me is Matt Prout. Can find us on Twitter at
Speaker 1: Dan Harris Ady and at Sports Talk Matt. Matt, how
Speaker 1: are you today?
Speaker 2: I'm good. I'm really good. It's it's energized. I'm excited
Speaker 2: to talk football today. This slate is not that pretty
Speaker 2: with COVID problems everywhere, but yeah, let's go.
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to do a lot of dancing in
Speaker 1: this slate, but let's get to it. A couple of
Speaker 1: things before we start. I remind everybody about Discord. Come
Speaker 1: and talk with us, talk with other people at are
Speaker 1: interested in sports betting, bettingpros dot com slash chat. Matt,
Speaker 1: I don't know how many people are in there at
Speaker 1: this point. I mean, it was six fifty seven.
Speaker 2: It's over eight hundred. I'm my last look, it's over
Speaker 2: eight hundred. But it's at any given time during a
Speaker 2: primetime game, you're gonna find about two hundred and three
Speaker 2: hundred people actively in there right now. So it's pretty cool.
Speaker 1: Just come talk about sports betting, man, whatever you guys
Speaker 1: want to talk about any sport, anything that's going on.
Speaker 1: We've got channels for everything. Second, our prop bet cheat
Speaker 1: cheat betting pros dot Com slash props. It compares consensus
Speaker 1: projections to the available props in the market, and it
Speaker 1: gives you recommendations. It's pretty valuable if you like prop betting.
Speaker 2: All right to three and last week top three bets
Speaker 2: went three and.
Speaker 1: Oh, top three bets are the thing. It's ranked in
Speaker 1: order of how good the projections are. Essentially the delta. Sorry, man,
Speaker 1: I know you like the word. The delta between that are,
Speaker 1: you know, the consensus projections and the actual line. And
Speaker 1: so it gives you recommendations based on the strength, based
Speaker 1: on the difference and the projections and the actual line.
Speaker 1: All right, So we're gonna get to this weekend. One thing,
Speaker 1: by the way, before we get to it, Matt and
Speaker 1: I were considering placing tonight's game in the contest because
Speaker 1: we are able to do that. In the DraftKings contest.
Speaker 1: The spread was what did I say, Matt, five and
Speaker 1: a half At the time, it was, it's now moved
Speaker 1: more in the direction of green bed at six and
Speaker 1: a half. I think now I don't know seven seven, right,
Speaker 1: And again that's largely because of all the injuries. But
Speaker 1: in the end, Matt and I just decided, I don't know, Man,
Speaker 1: didn't feel right right.
Speaker 2: I mean no, if I was gonna bet it, I
Speaker 2: would actually would have flipped around. I would have bet
Speaker 2: Sam fran plus seven. Yeah, so I changed a lot.
Speaker 2: I went and looked at just the metrics as to
Speaker 2: what the defense has been looking like for green Bay
Speaker 2: and if they can run the ball at all on
Speaker 2: Thursday night, I think Sam Franz live to win the game.
Speaker 2: So it's going to be if I was going to
Speaker 2: bet it, and I didn't bet it. I do think
Speaker 2: green Bay wins. I teased it down on the Daily Juice.
Speaker 2: You guys heard me. I did a teaser. I teased
Speaker 2: it down to minus one for green Bay and then
Speaker 2: took the under. So I do think green Bay wins
Speaker 2: the game. But I think they're going to have a
Speaker 2: real tough fight on their hands.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they are going to be able to run the
Speaker 1: ball because you can against green Bay's defense, and they
Speaker 1: also have nobody to throw the ball to because everybody
Speaker 1: is I can't believe they didn't move this game, man,
Speaker 1: But that's a whole Yeah, money Thursday, I get it. Anyway,
Speaker 1: with the DraftKings of contest, we're in a little bit
Speaker 1: of a rut okay, second straight week two and three,
Speaker 1: we're now twenty one and nineteen overall, fifty two and
Speaker 1: a half percent on the season. We're basically right in
Speaker 1: the middle of where you know the contestants are. We
Speaker 1: literally fiftieth play fifty percent place. We did hit on
Speaker 1: the Raiders, the Raiders getting two and a half from
Speaker 1: the Broncos, which is from the Browns part of me,
Speaker 1: which was a game that we both really liked coming
Speaker 1: into the week, and the Chiefs laying nineteen and a
Speaker 1: half to the Jets, which we both kind of laughed
Speaker 1: at when we chose. But we lost on the Ravens
Speaker 1: laying three and a half to the Steelers, Packers laying
Speaker 1: six and a half to the Vikings, and the Saints
Speaker 1: laying three and a half to the Bears. They won
Speaker 1: by a field goal, so legitimately halfway point three hundred
Speaker 1: and forty fifth out of six hundred and eighty nine.
Speaker 1: Legitimately the exact halfway point. People in the money right
Speaker 1: now are about sixty five percent, So we really got
Speaker 1: to get on the horse we got to get back going.
Speaker 1: Move past just three and two. Let's go four and one,
Speaker 1: five and zero, let's really get going. So Matt's triggy week.
Speaker 1: As we said, we've got COVID concerns everywhere. Started us
Speaker 1: off with your best pick and then I'll give mine.
Speaker 2: All right, my favorite play of the week. And this
Speaker 2: number actually is moving, and I actually am going to
Speaker 2: get a better number to bet on it. But for
Speaker 2: the purposes of the contest, we're going to fade the
Speaker 2: team that I like the best. Last week, the Chargers
Speaker 2: are at home against the Raiders and they're laying one
Speaker 2: and a half points. The Chargers so far this year
Speaker 2: are four to and one against the number they had
Speaker 2: covered every game before or sorry, they had covered four
Speaker 2: straight games before what happened in the end zone against
Speaker 2: Denver where they choked. Totally understand it. This is a
Speaker 2: team that can't finish. However, this is a classic letdown
Speaker 2: spot after a big road victory and a chance, in
Speaker 2: my opinion, for the Chargers to kind of get themselves
Speaker 2: going against the defense that is hard hitting, but they
Speaker 2: can be scored upon when you have nice weather. The
Speaker 2: reason why I love the Raiders against the Browns was
Speaker 2: because of the weather and the running attack. That's exactly
Speaker 2: what happened, low scoring games sixteen to sixth. Right, the
Speaker 2: final score was a good win for the Raiders. There
Speaker 2: bounce back spot for the Chargers at home after their
Speaker 2: tough loss to the Broncos. I like the Chargers laying
Speaker 2: one and a half the best this week.
Speaker 1: I cannot believe this is your favorite game. Yep, Like,
Speaker 1: I really can't. Number one, I thought you'd be on
Speaker 1: the other side public is.
Speaker 2: It's such a public play. Everyone in the public's on
Speaker 2: the Raiders.
Speaker 1: Number two, the Chargers, Like essentially, you need the Chargers
Speaker 1: to win this game, and the Chargers are just masters
Speaker 1: even when they should win games and giving away games.
Speaker 1: So I don't I agree with you in the sort
Speaker 1: of you know, sell high here on the Raiders with
Speaker 1: this game. But I'm having trouble like getting behind a
Speaker 1: Charger team, Like you know, your number one pick is
Speaker 1: to back a team essentially to win that legitimately the
Speaker 1: thing it does best is blow fourth quarter wins. You
Speaker 1: know you're you're not worried here.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not worried because I don't think you can
Speaker 2: do it. I don't believe that Anthony Lynn and this
Speaker 2: team is gonna consistently do that every single week, and
Speaker 2: it's been crazy. At some point, this team's gonna figure
Speaker 2: out how to win games. And I think at home
Speaker 2: in a divisional game, where right now in Vegas it's
Speaker 2: a pick. Everyone's coming in here on the Raiders. It's
Speaker 2: a crazy, big public play. I'm gonna wait and I'm
Speaker 2: gonna bet this thing when I get plus money in Vegas,
Speaker 2: because I guarantee you it's gonna be plus one plus
Speaker 2: two at kickoff for the Chargers at home, so I'll
Speaker 2: have a home dog. But I do I think they
Speaker 2: win the game by three or more.
Speaker 1: All right, I'll put it on the maybe list because
Speaker 1: it was It definitely wasn't a wasn't one that I
Speaker 1: was against. I didn't have a good feel for it,
Speaker 1: and I you'd come in on the Raiders, and even
Speaker 1: then I was like, I'm the I have like a
Speaker 1: bucket of games mat that I'm gonna that. I say,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let Matt try to talk me into one
Speaker 1: of these games, and that was one of them. But
Speaker 1: I think you're crazy, but I don't. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: I I'm not as much as I think you're crazy,
Speaker 1: I'm not taking off the table because I do think
Speaker 1: that at least when I analyze the game from a
Speaker 1: pure betting perspective, like what's the right approach to take
Speaker 1: in these games, it would be this. It would be
Speaker 1: sort of the byless I'll high so on the maybe,
Speaker 1: we'll put it on the maybe. I'm just I'm running down.
Speaker 2: They also are zero and three as a favorite, by
Speaker 2: the way, so that they're due to win a game.
Speaker 2: Here the Raiders are owing three. So the Chargers are
Speaker 2: rowing three as favorites the season.
Speaker 1: And you like that, yes, because they're doing a game
Speaker 1: all right? That this is more love for the Charges
Speaker 1: that I expected my favorite pick, and I have a
Speaker 1: couple here actually that I like. I'm surprised this wasn't
Speaker 1: your number one pick because of how much you despise
Speaker 1: the Bills and it was Seattle getting two and a
Speaker 1: half from Bills.
Speaker 2: No, I'm with you, that's fine. It's on my list.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so all right, so I'll probably put that one in.
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the deal. I don't feel exactly the
Speaker 1: same way about the Bills that you do, but I definitely,
Speaker 1: especially lately, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you some props, Matt.
Speaker 1: I I in the beginning of the season, I was
Speaker 1: teasing you way too much about the Bills. But every
Speaker 1: time you see Josh Allen, he looks exactly now like
Speaker 1: he did last year, Like this is the exact same
Speaker 1: thing as last year. Now there are a couple of,
Speaker 1: you know, worry spots and that I think part of
Speaker 1: the issue has been that John Brown either has been
Speaker 1: inactive or has not been healthy. And I think he's
Speaker 1: healthy now. I think he's good to go. I think
Speaker 1: with the three receivers Basiley being the third and Digs,
Speaker 1: that they are going to be able to move the ball.
Speaker 1: But if you're telling me that I'm gonna get Seattle
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson getting points with Jamal Adams back, I mean,
Speaker 1: I get that Chris Carson probably won't be active for
Speaker 1: this game, but I don't really think it matters. I
Speaker 1: think I'll be able to pass as much as you want,
Speaker 1: so you're giving me Seattle. It's actually what's interesting is
Speaker 1: that the consensus Ligne right now Matt has moved to three.
Speaker 1: So that's interesting to me, is it? What is it
Speaker 1: in the circa is it three or two and a half.
Speaker 2: I think it's two and a half as well in circa.
Speaker 2: But if you look at just Seattle against the spread
Speaker 2: so far this year, they're five and two against the spread.
Speaker 2: They are one in two over the last three, so
Speaker 2: you might say, well, you know, people are figuring them out.
Speaker 2: But I just think when you look at that Buffalo
Speaker 2: Bill's defense, they're horrific and they can't stop the run
Speaker 2: or the pass or Okay, I guess they're better against
Speaker 2: the run than there against the past, But I just
Speaker 2: think DK Metcalf is playing on just on different level
Speaker 2: right now. And I love the fact that the defense
Speaker 2: is getting healthy here, and I just think Josh Allen
Speaker 2: is good for one or two turnovers a game. And
Speaker 2: they should have lost to the Patriots. I mean this
Speaker 2: is both these teams should have lost to the Patriots
Speaker 2: and the Patriots. I mean they should have lost, you know,
Speaker 2: last play the game in Seattle, last play or second
Speaker 2: and last play of the game in Buffalo, and both
Speaker 2: times the defense made plays. So I mean it's it
Speaker 2: is funny to look at both these teams and go, Okay,
Speaker 2: they are beatable both at home and on the road.
Speaker 2: But I got Russ better quarterback. I'm not a big
Speaker 2: fan of McDermott. I I like Pete Carroll enough. Better
Speaker 2: coach on Seattle side, better quarterback on Seattle side.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it'll be close, because every Seattle game is close.
Speaker 1: But you know, Jamal Adams coming back here. I just
Speaker 1: I think they win this game. And without fans in Buffalo,
Speaker 1: it just that place doesn't scare me that much. So
Speaker 1: all right, all right, it in, go ahead, what's your
Speaker 1: next one?
Speaker 2: Okay? So how do you feel about a play that
Speaker 2: we don't know yet about what's happening with the quarterback
Speaker 2: spot with Detroit?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: So you are are you comfortable saying that Matthew Stafford
Speaker 2: is not going to play for the Detroit Lions? Now?
Speaker 1: Actually I think he is going to play.
Speaker 2: You do think he's going to play.
Speaker 1: So here's the deal. This is what I'm nderstand that
Speaker 1: you correct me if I'm wrong. Okay, he's been deemed
Speaker 1: a close contact. He doesn't right a positive test. If
Speaker 1: he's cleared by Sunday morning. If he doesn't have a
Speaker 1: positive test or whatever by Sunday morning, he can play.
Speaker 2: Right, yes, but he's not practicing.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: So he can't be around Anyboddy. He is suspected to
Speaker 2: being positive for COVID nineteen uh suspected. He doesn't have
Speaker 2: it confirmed test, but he's in close contact. So he's
Speaker 2: testing being isolated. He's being pulled away. Okay, his wife
Speaker 2: and his wife confirmed that they were in close contact
Speaker 2: with somebody who had who is positive for COVID.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right. So but if he if he does
Speaker 1: get if he doesn't test positive before Sunday, he does
Speaker 1: get to play, right, I believe he does, yes, Okay,
Speaker 1: so but let's talk about it. This is Minnesota, by
Speaker 1: the way, I forgot. I meant to mention it before.
Speaker 1: That's seventy four percent of the experts in our bed
Speaker 1: analyzer are favoring Seattle with and now it's three point spreads.
Speaker 1: It's a little bit better. But either way, I do
Speaker 1: think they can. Okay, So this is Minnesota laying three
Speaker 1: and a half right to the Lions in Minnesota. Go ahead,
Speaker 1: talk me through it then, So this is only for
Speaker 1: you if through Stafford doesn't.
Speaker 2: It's not only I could still pick the Vikings even
Speaker 2: without him, but I feel even better. The reason why
Speaker 2: it's one number two play is because of the fact
Speaker 2: that I look at that and I say, okay, I
Speaker 2: believe Matthew Stafford. If nothing less, he hasn't been practicing.
Speaker 2: And these teams are very distracted. You're on the road,
Speaker 2: so you're very careful and cautious because if he's testing
Speaker 2: negative and he can't be around his teammates because he
Speaker 2: might be positive, and like when does he travel? How
Speaker 2: does he travel that? Just so many things go into
Speaker 2: this when it's your starting quarterback who can't have meetings
Speaker 2: besides zoom, meetings to get ready to get ready for
Speaker 2: a football game. And the Vikings have their backs are
Speaker 2: against the wall. But they're four and three against the
Speaker 2: spread this year. All right, it's a game that the
Speaker 2: Vikings have to have. They are fighting for their lives.
Speaker 2: They showed up, they ran the ball, Dalvin Cook looks great.
Speaker 2: I just think the I think the Vikings might be
Speaker 2: on a heater here and a chance at home to
Speaker 2: get a w and then off Stafford doesn't play. I
Speaker 2: love this pick.
Speaker 1: Okay, can you name me a healthy member of the
Speaker 1: Vikings secondary?
Speaker 2: No, because there isn't one. I mean, I mean, it's
Speaker 2: it's absolutely they have. But but we have to see
Speaker 2: about COVID. They have two guys on the COVID list,
Speaker 2: so they could come back by the time they play.
Speaker 2: So we'll see what happens with COVID nineteen and the Vikings.
Speaker 2: But I mean, I I just think this is to
Speaker 2: me starting quarterbacks in the NFL when they have trouble
Speaker 2: or problems. I don't know. I mean, I think this
Speaker 2: is a chance for Dalvin Cook to run the football
Speaker 2: here and to keep going hot. Not the same way
Speaker 2: he was against the Packers, but I think this is
Speaker 2: a chance for this Vikings team. Look, the coaching set
Speaker 2: might be coaching for their jobs. They can't go out
Speaker 2: and love you win two three games this year, so you.
Speaker 1: Know they don't. They can win, but not cover. If
Speaker 1: it's more you know, it's tru.
Speaker 2: True three and a half, I get the hook, but
Speaker 2: that's where that's where the stafford comes in.
Speaker 1: So okay, all right. So and there is no Kenny
Speaker 1: Galladay in this game, so that that's a big deal.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you've watched Marvin Jones play, I'm sure
Speaker 1: he'll score two touchdowns just because that's you know, what
Speaker 1: Marvin Jones does. Whenever you're kind of like, I'm done
Speaker 1: with Marvin Jones and T. J. Hockenson is legit, and
Speaker 1: I do like Deandrew Swift. I I I'm not fully
Speaker 1: opposed to it. It was in my bucket of I'm gonna
Speaker 1: let Matt talk to me, and to the extent I
Speaker 1: lean one way or the other, it was the Vikings
Speaker 1: and the spread's moving. It's four and a half right
Speaker 1: now in favor of the Vikings, and on our bed
Speaker 1: at analys are fifty eight percent like the Vikings even
Speaker 1: at that number. So I'm gonna put that in the
Speaker 1: Maybe I think I might like that one better than
Speaker 1: the Chargers one and a half to the writers, But
Speaker 1: I'm not opposed to it. I'm not opposed to especially
Speaker 1: if Stafford doesn't play. Now, do you are we gonna
Speaker 1: know I mean, obviously be test positive before Sunday morning. Well, no,
Speaker 1: I wonder you know, Matt, I can wait to put
Speaker 1: these in until Sunday at ten so it can legitimately
Speaker 1: be one where.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I mean they have to name a
Speaker 2: starting quarterback. He's gotta work out, he's gonna be with
Speaker 2: the ones. I mean, if he's not playing, they're gonna
Speaker 2: let everybody know by the time. I mean my Saturday
Speaker 2: will know staff is playing.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so let's put that one on the
Speaker 1: maybe list. Okay, my next best pick is a team
Speaker 1: that really let us down last week. But it's also
Speaker 1: a team that I wanted to pick last week that
Speaker 1: you were like, No, I hate this coaching staff. I
Speaker 1: don't like this team. So I'm wondering how you feel
Speaker 1: even though they're on the road Baltimore laying two and
Speaker 1: a half to the Colts.
Speaker 2: I'm on their side.
Speaker 1: You like the Colts in this game?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I thought you. I thought you'd picked the Colts.
Speaker 1: No, No, you were.
Speaker 2: So high on the Colts. That's my that's my third
Speaker 2: favorite play of the week.
Speaker 1: All right, Well let's talk it through then Todt tell
Speaker 1: why are you high in the Colts? And then I'll
Speaker 1: give my side.
Speaker 2: All right, So I'm highing the Colts because they're at
Speaker 2: home catching points. So they got two and a half
Speaker 2: points here, and I think there's something really wrong with
Speaker 2: Baltimore right now. I think there's something really wrong with
Speaker 2: the passing attack. I think teams have figured out Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 2: I think that they have the Ravens right now, they're
Speaker 2: not involving their wide receivers the same way that they
Speaker 2: have in the past, and I think you're relying. I
Speaker 2: think the team is looking at Lamar Jackson and asking
Speaker 2: him to be Superman, and if he's not Superman, they're losing.
Speaker 2: And I just fundamentally think there's something wrong here. And
Speaker 2: I know Philip Rivers is a real dangerous guy right
Speaker 2: now to pick. But their defense is playing well. Their
Speaker 2: offensive line played really well. I mean, look what they
Speaker 2: did last week. I just think or a hot football team.
Speaker 2: I mean, Baltimore might win the game, but I'm getting
Speaker 2: two and a half points at home.
Speaker 1: So last week last week was the Lions, right, I'm
Speaker 1: not misremembering, Yes, right? Yeah? That I mean that was
Speaker 1: for me. This is what I said when we started
Speaker 1: talking about it, Matt, I said, I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: in like a parallel universe because this is like the
Speaker 1: easiest pick in the world to me, and nobody else
Speaker 1: was on it. It wasn't just you. Everybody else was
Speaker 1: like no, no, no, I didn't understand. The Lions are
Speaker 1: just not capable of winning a game against the team
Speaker 1: like the Colts with that defense. Here's my big question,
Speaker 1: I think for the Colts, how are they going to
Speaker 1: move the ball. I mean, I know Marlon Humphrey.
Speaker 2: Is going to be got seven guys with COVID.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so are they all out, Yes, they're all out.
Speaker 2: They're all Humphreys is out.
Speaker 1: They're all out the Colts. One of the reasons why
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't go crazy over it. What the
Speaker 1: Colts don't have receivers. I mean, even if you buy
Speaker 1: a t Y Hilton bounce back, t Y Hilton's probably
Speaker 1: not playing in this game. You know, what are you
Speaker 1: looking at? Zach Pascal. Maybe Michael Pittman Junior comes back,
Speaker 1: but it's not really scary. They've got eight tight ends.
Speaker 1: They're not going to go with johnthan Taylor, which maybe
Speaker 1: that's better for them with the way Taylor is running.
Speaker 1: But you know, Jordan Wilkins doesn't look.
Speaker 2: Just people know, Okay, L J Fort COVID, John Elliott COVID,
Speaker 2: Ron Stanley ankle injury, Patrick Queen COVID. Matthew Judon is back.
Speaker 2: Actually he came back today, so that he's back. Off
Speaker 2: those Malie Harrison COVID, Tyas Bowser COVID, Marlon Humphrey's COVID.
Speaker 2: I mean, there are a lot of.
Speaker 1: The only guy who actually tested positive, Is that right?
Speaker 1: And the rest are close contacts? Or do you know
Speaker 1: of the rest of test positive? Because that was my understanding.
Speaker 2: They're on the COVID list, so we never when they
Speaker 2: get put on the COVID list, it's assumed that they
Speaker 2: cannot play, that they're going to have to have three
Speaker 2: negative tests.
Speaker 1: But Stafford's on the COVID list, right, Is he on
Speaker 1: the COVID list? I think what happens is if you're
Speaker 1: a high contact, you and I should know this at
Speaker 1: this point, but I'm very sorry. I've been up for
Speaker 1: like two.
Speaker 2: I'll look at right now, Matthew, look it up. I
Speaker 2: believe he is on the COVID list.
Speaker 1: He is, right. I believe if you are, if you
Speaker 1: have tested positive, or if you are deemed a close
Speaker 1: contact or whatever, it is a high risk on whatever
Speaker 1: it is that you're put on the COVID list. Which
Speaker 1: is why Jamal Williams can't play in tonight's game, and
Speaker 1: which is why Brandon I can't play in tonight's game
Speaker 1: because they're deemed close contacts with Kendrick Bourne and uh,
Speaker 1: you know here on.
Speaker 2: A Thursday, he placed on the COVID list. On Thursday.
Speaker 2: You have to test negative on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
Speaker 2: to play.
Speaker 1: These were these guys put on on the list on Thursday,
Speaker 1: though they were putting the list earlier in the week, right.
Speaker 2: I thought it was today they I thought Stafford went
Speaker 2: on there today. I thought that. I thought they're all
Speaker 2: all this COVID news broke today with the Ravens and
Speaker 2: and with the Lions.
Speaker 1: No, we could have been yes, No, I I think
Speaker 1: it was at least it.
Speaker 2: Was Wednesday at the earl at the latest, I mean,
Speaker 2: at the earliest. Rather so it really I.
Speaker 1: Don't think it was today unless I'm unless I'm make
Speaker 1: some of day. So if Stafford can play, then these guys.
Speaker 1: But but regardless, regardless, let's just say this, you probably
Speaker 1: don't like it, even if they can play, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know Humphrey is out because I'm actually tested positive.
Speaker 1: You don't like it regardless, even if I.
Speaker 2: Like the cults on this, I'm on the Colt side.
Speaker 2: That's mine. I'm gonna bet this game.
Speaker 1: I like the I bet it as well, so you
Speaker 1: and I will have some bug with it, just you,
Speaker 1: but we're not gonna put in the contest. That's fine.
Speaker 1: I think the Ravens are gonna win this game.
Speaker 2: Just so you know, I can read this straight off
Speaker 2: the internet here, Okay, Stafford is considered a high risk
Speaker 2: close contact of a non team member who tested posit
Speaker 2: for COVID nineteen. Stafford's last contact with the individual was Monday,
Speaker 2: which means he would be eligible to come off the
Speaker 2: reserve list Sunday and play against the Vikings pending five
Speaker 2: straight days of negative tests. Okay, not three five. I
Speaker 2: thought it was three days. It's five straight days. Okay,
Speaker 2: negative tests?
Speaker 1: And do we have that? Do you know the It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, we're not picking it anyway, but the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Secondary when they were put on so.
Speaker 2: For the Ravens, the Ravens story for them with COVID.
Speaker 1: I hope everybody really appreciates how much time we're trying
Speaker 1: to spend giving you.
Speaker 2: This is important.
Speaker 1: Okay, So.
Speaker 2: Seven Ravens are considered high contact, high risk after Marlin
Speaker 2: Humphrey tested positive. I read the list already. This doesn't
Speaker 2: indicate that those close contacts have tested positive or we'll
Speaker 2: miss the game on Sunday. However, Humphreys will be out
Speaker 2: for sure. He'd be quandered quarantine for ten days, so
Speaker 2: the league sent a memo to the team asking everyone
Speaker 2: to wear masks on the sidelines and during games in
Speaker 2: regards to positive tests with Ravens and Packers. The memo
Speaker 2: states additional players and staff members were disneyed as high
Speaker 2: risk close contexts as results of unmasked social interactions outside
Speaker 2: of the facility. So who knows what the heck is
Speaker 2: going to happen here? I mean, it's it's It could
Speaker 2: be complete chaos if they all test positive on Saturday
Speaker 2: morning and the whole defense could be decimated in this game.
Speaker 2: This game could get moved. I mean, if it runs
Speaker 2: through the Ravens locker room, this game could be subject
Speaker 2: to being pushed back.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well either way, we're not taking it.
Speaker 1: But if you are looking to bet it, even right
Speaker 1: now with what we know right now, I'm still taking it.
Speaker 1: With Baltimore laying under afield deal, so I'm willing to
Speaker 1: do it. But go ahead to your next game if
Speaker 1: you like.
Speaker 2: If you like. Okay, So there's there's two other games
Speaker 2: that we haven't got to and they're both a little ugly,
Speaker 2: and I'm not going to stand on a table and
Speaker 2: scream for either one, but the ATM machine. That's the
Speaker 2: casey Chiefs against the Panthers. They're at home. I just
Speaker 2: think this is an opportunity. I know they've got COVID
Speaker 2: issues too. Chris Jones is on the COVID issue on
Speaker 2: the COVID list now, which is not great. I understand that.
Speaker 2: But it's the Chiefs against that defense for the Panthers. Yep,
Speaker 2: it's ten and a half. I know it's a little steep,
Speaker 2: but it's the Chiefs. I mean, they just they beat
Speaker 2: up on everybody at home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they covered the big spreads. I mean that was
Speaker 1: really why you and I were like against the Jets
Speaker 1: are like, what is it nineteen and a half? That's fine,
Speaker 1: We're fine with that.
Speaker 2: They've covered so far this year they've covered eleven once,
Speaker 2: they've covered nine and a half, eleven and twenty of
Speaker 2: the big spreads and seven of the big.
Speaker 1: Are you worried all about McCaffrey coming back in this now?
Speaker 2: Because I think I actually agree with my profooble folk people.
Speaker 2: I think getting McCaffrey back into the offense is going
Speaker 2: to take time.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, let me say this. This was not one
Speaker 1: of the ones on my list, but it was the
Speaker 1: one that actually technically it did make the cut. Yees,
Speaker 1: so it did make the cut. So I think we
Speaker 1: could probably just put that in because I liked it too.
Speaker 1: I like it too. I think, you know, you saw
Speaker 1: against the Panthers. I get as a Panthers the Falcons.
Speaker 1: I get that it was bad weather. But I think
Speaker 1: that this this you know, Carolina offense is now coming
Speaker 1: back down to earth a little bit and it's you know,
Speaker 1: and the defense is not nearly as good as it
Speaker 1: has played, and I think that they're just going to
Speaker 1: be able to move the ball pretty pretty well and
Speaker 1: put up a ton of points. So I'm good with that.
Speaker 1: Let's just put that in chief slaying ten and a
Speaker 1: half to the Panthers. Okay, okay, all right. Let me
Speaker 1: get to my next one then, because I have a
Speaker 1: couple of still a couple here. Now, this one is
Speaker 1: in your dead zone, so you can't possibly like it.
Speaker 1: But the Bears do have offensive line issues with COVID
Speaker 1: again and injuries. I don't know who's even gonna be
Speaker 1: on that offensive line right now. So I kind of
Speaker 1: like in Tennessee that Titans laying five and a half
Speaker 1: to the Bears in a bounce back spot. There's a
Speaker 1: couple of reasons, and we can get to why you
Speaker 1: say I don't like, you know, five and a half
Speaker 1: with with favorites, they're getting a little healthier in their secondary,
Speaker 1: which has been absolutely decimated. Dori Jackson, I think is
Speaker 1: going to play in this game. They traded for Gag King,
Speaker 1: so and I think Jenkins isn't gonna play for the
Speaker 1: Bears as well. It's gonna open up the run defense
Speaker 1: a little more for the Titans to be able to
Speaker 1: run a lot here. So I think this is a
Speaker 1: real bounce back spot. And again, you know, I know
Speaker 1: we lost last week in a game that I felt
Speaker 1: like we should have won with the Saints laying three
Speaker 1: and a half because the Bears did match put a
Speaker 1: points and again Alan Robinson played, which we weren't expecting
Speaker 1: this rightly. But I think this is the game where
Speaker 1: the Titans destroy the Bears in Tennessee in a bounce
Speaker 1: back spot.
Speaker 2: All right, here's my fear. Okay, So the Titans are
Speaker 2: they have one games by two, three, one, six, and six.
Speaker 2: They've won one game by twenty six, they've lost by three,
Speaker 2: and they've lost by eleven. They've lost two games in
Speaker 2: a row. Their season is sort of hinging here on
Speaker 2: this game, right, my fear is this Titans team is
Speaker 2: crashing down to earth after a red hot start and
Speaker 2: that line at five and a half. I'm petrified. I
Speaker 2: can see them winning this game by three points and
Speaker 2: just squeaking it out and not in Chicago covering it
Speaker 2: because this was on my maybe list of Chicago plus
Speaker 2: five and a half.
Speaker 1: Oh, you like Chicago on this side because of the line,
Speaker 1: because of the point. Now six and a half, by
Speaker 1: the way, is where I see. So I don't think that, yeah,
Speaker 1: I helps you in anyway, but yes, I just and that,
Speaker 1: by the way, is that's our most split game on
Speaker 1: bed analyzers.
Speaker 2: I'm just scared. I'm just really scared of how close
Speaker 2: these games are with the Titans every week and it
Speaker 2: comes down to a field goal one way or the
Speaker 2: other and Steven Goskowski whether the hip is working or not. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And so I just I'm petrified with these Titans games.
Speaker 2: I mean, I've just I've kind of gotten my toast
Speaker 2: dubbed a bunch of times with the Titans until a
Speaker 2: little gun shy with them at the moment.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fine, Let's go to your next one.
Speaker 2: Then, guy, last one is ugly, okay, and nobody agrees
Speaker 2: with me, But here is my last one, okay to
Speaker 2: a tag of Aloa is in the middle of a
Speaker 2: really interesting controversy in Miami right now, so it was
Speaker 2: leaked out to the media that the Dolphins may be
Speaker 2: showcasing two order to trade him, using the two first
Speaker 2: round picks they've got next year their own and the Texans,
Speaker 2: and the two second round picks that they've got next
Speaker 2: year their own, and the Texans to move up and
Speaker 2: if they're they're not in the top five already themselves
Speaker 2: even in the top ten, to package those four picks
Speaker 2: and go up to one or two and take Justin
Speaker 2: Fields or take Trevor Lawrence. The team quickly came out
Speaker 2: and shot that down. But just the fact that that
Speaker 2: went out there, and the fact that Tua played like crap,
Speaker 2: just like I thought he would. The offense did nothing
Speaker 2: with him. It was the defense and the special teams
Speaker 2: that did all the scoring. The run that was the
Speaker 2: third highest negative yardage differential in NFL history with the
Speaker 2: Rams in the Miami Dolphins last week. It was over
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty yard difference between the Rams and
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. Sure to it, threw a touchdown pass. Great,
Speaker 2: this is a different defense. I get it with the
Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals, but this is his first road start, welcome
Speaker 2: to the NFL. This is where Tua probably should have started,
Speaker 2: to be quite honest, not last week. I think the
Speaker 2: Cardinals win this game relatively easily minus four and a half.
Speaker 2: I'm taking Arizona.
Speaker 1: I'm putting it in. Okay, I'm putting it in. It
Speaker 1: was on my probably list, one of these where if
Speaker 1: you said it, I was definitely going with it. I
Speaker 1: agree with basically everything you said, and I think that
Speaker 1: this game favors the Cardinals and couple of other ways too.
Speaker 1: The Dolphins generally are terrible against the run, and I
Speaker 1: know Kenyan Draguszez doesn't matter. Chase Edmonds is probably playing
Speaker 1: a little better, but Murray's gonna run like a crazy man.
Speaker 1: They play man defense too. They've got a man's scheme
Speaker 1: which is perfect for Murray to run all over it.
Speaker 1: They also done have Miles Gaskin or Matt Brita by
Speaker 1: the way, the Dolphins, so they're gonna be basically running
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard out there, which is going to take away
Speaker 1: any threat of the run game. Tuur really didn't look good,
Speaker 1: and I felt for you because I know how big
Speaker 1: you were on the Rams. I didn't let us put
Speaker 1: in the contest, but I felt for you because they
Speaker 1: did not play well and they got you know, they
Speaker 1: got a Jared Goff and then a special team's touchdown.
Speaker 1: Tuoa did not look good in that game. So I'm
Speaker 1: completely on board with this. I'll do Cardinals laying four
Speaker 1: and a half to Dolphins in Arizona, So that's good
Speaker 1: with me. Uh Okay, I've got three more games, Matt
Speaker 1: that are on my maybe list. Okay, so let me
Speaker 1: lay him out here for you. And it's fine if
Speaker 1: you're on the other side. My guess is you're not
Speaker 1: gonna like this one. But how do you feel about
Speaker 1: the Saints getting four and a half from the Bucks?
Speaker 2: I don't hate it. So here is my concern. When
Speaker 2: you're talking about New Orleans on the road. You know
Speaker 2: we're assuming Michael Thomas is playing and healthy, right, Yes, Okay,
Speaker 2: so Michael Thomas is back. That changes a lot. You
Speaker 2: got Alvin Kamara, who's gonna be insane like he always is.
Speaker 2: He's a major focal point and a difficult guy to stop.
Speaker 2: The Bucks defense got exposed a little bit last week.
Speaker 2: But my worry is how much were they looking ahead
Speaker 2: to the Saints game and they didn't totally focus in
Speaker 2: like they should have against the Giants. But I was
Speaker 2: really surprised at how easily the Giants threw the ball,
Speaker 2: not really ran the ball, but through the ball. So
Speaker 2: going into the game, the Bucks defense was number one
Speaker 2: against the run DVOA and number three against the pass DVOA.
Speaker 2: That passing stat clearly was inflated and clearly was wrong.
Speaker 2: So I don't hate this. And if you want to
Speaker 2: stand on table and say New Orleans plus four and
Speaker 2: a half and you want to go off of it
Speaker 2: saying it's a numbers play and maybe the Saints win
Speaker 2: the game, outright, I don't hate it because I am
Speaker 2: a little concerned. I just don't know what what Antonio
Speaker 2: Brown does and how many snaps he gets, and just
Speaker 2: him and Brady are they just like on a different
Speaker 2: wavelength like they were when he played against the Dolphins
Speaker 2: for the Patriots that first game where he was like
Speaker 2: five catches for eighty yards and a touchdown, So I'm
Speaker 2: a little that's my own only concern if like him
Speaker 2: and Brady come out and just are on fire together.
Speaker 2: And I don't love that Saints defense. I like it,
Speaker 2: I love it, but I don't hate to play four
Speaker 2: and a half of the Saints.
Speaker 1: So I'm a little concerned with most of what you mentioned.
Speaker 1: First of all, Chris Godwin may play right now, but
Speaker 1: he's basically got a giant like splint cast on his finger,
Speaker 1: so I don't expect him to be full health. I
Speaker 1: don't really trust the running game for Tampa, especially not
Speaker 1: against the Saints, which has a pretty solid run defense,
Speaker 1: because they can't get into a groove because if you
Speaker 1: fumble or you miss a Blitz pick up, you are
Speaker 1: benched like Ronald Jones was. So I feel like they
Speaker 1: don't really have it there. I don't expect Brown to
Speaker 1: come in and play a full compliment of snaps, but
Speaker 1: he might. Andrew Brees is kind of, I guess, battling
Speaker 1: some sort of nagging shoulder thing. But I do think
Speaker 1: basically this might be the first time that they're going
Speaker 1: to be at full strength offensively since the first game, really,
Speaker 1: when Emmanuel Sanders was not in any way involved, and
Speaker 1: he played really well before going on the COVID list,
Speaker 1: like really well, especially without Michael Thomas. I think if
Speaker 1: you give him, and you give Michael Thomas and Sanders
Speaker 1: and Kamara and you've got I mean, Jared Cook is
Speaker 1: back and he's doing his thing with the red zone.
Speaker 1: This just strikes me as a division game that's going
Speaker 1: to be played really really close. It doesn't strike me
Speaker 1: as something where the Bucks are going to be able
Speaker 1: to completely blow them out of the water in this game.
Speaker 1: So this feels like a field goal game to me,
Speaker 1: one way or another. I don't think I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't like, I don't love the Saints on the money
Speaker 1: line or anything like that, but I do feel like
Speaker 1: this is going to be within a field goal. So
Speaker 1: why don't we put that on the on the maybe list.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I I'm comfortable. I mean, I wouldn't
Speaker 2: bet this game about that, but but I am comfortable
Speaker 2: taking it in the contest because every point you're making
Speaker 2: is accurate, and I do think there's a legitimate chance
Speaker 2: this is a this is the game of the weekend,
Speaker 2: you know, primetime game, Monster ratings, everyone's eyeballs are on it.
Speaker 2: Everyone's been looking forward to it. Everyone's you're gonna get
Speaker 2: the a game from both teams, right, So it coming
Speaker 2: down to a last second field goal drive.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And the Bucks are on a short week, don't
Speaker 1: forget like that to that they're on a short week.
Speaker 1: And I think the Saints probably hear all of this, right,
Speaker 1: they're like, okay, the Bucks, Bucks Bucks by Box. Well,
Speaker 1: the Saints where like the preseason sort of pick to
Speaker 1: and it's.
Speaker 2: Been their division too, right, I mean this is this
Speaker 2: is their division. So there's somewhat of like a Okay,
Speaker 2: new kids on the block. No, thank you, we're there.
Speaker 2: We're still the ones who run this joint.
Speaker 1: So now the consensus line is now four and it's
Speaker 1: it's very split. Fifty four percent of people on bet
Speaker 1: Analyzer are with the Saints, but it's very which I understand.
Speaker 1: I understand, although I think.
Speaker 2: The money's going to pour in on the Bucks. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be a public side either way.
Speaker 1: On the I agree, and I think that's why I'm
Speaker 1: on the faded.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: One of the reasons, well, okay, I've got two more here,
Speaker 1: do you want to go? Do you have anything else?
Speaker 2: But I'm good.
Speaker 1: Okay, here are two other ones that I lean in
Speaker 1: favor of. You can let me know if you like
Speaker 1: either one. It's hard to come into a game and
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, I want to take the
Speaker 1: Pats laying more than a field goal, giving everything that's
Speaker 1: happening with them. But you know, and this is not
Speaker 1: a I get to do whatever I want with the Jets.
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not making that that pick here because
Speaker 1: I like it. But the Jets, I Douglas is basically
Speaker 1: trying to go sixteen and I root against them actively
Speaker 1: because I want the h and sixteen. They are an
Speaker 1: absolutely terrible football team. You're not gonna get Jameson crowderback here.
Speaker 1: He's going to miss this game. Sam Darnold is probably
Speaker 1: at a point where they would not play him, and
Speaker 1: he's going to push to play with his injury at
Speaker 1: whatever it is, I guess his shoulder, whatever it is,
Speaker 1: he's going to push to play through it. He's limited
Speaker 1: in practice, he wants to play. Kudos to him because
Speaker 1: he probably knows their eyeing Trevor Lawrence, so he wants
Speaker 1: to go and Belichick of all things, of everything that's
Speaker 1: wrong with the Pats, of everything else. The one thing
Speaker 1: you can bet is that Belichick wants to stick it
Speaker 1: to the Jets as bad as possible.
Speaker 2: So for me, and they were buyers at the trade
Speaker 2: of line. Yeah, like how in the world that they
Speaker 2: were buyers. They weren't sellers, they were buyers.
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know. So for me, however, they
Speaker 1: want to do it, whether or not it's Damian Harris
Speaker 1: running I know the Jets have a decent run defence,
Speaker 1: or Cam just running it or you know, whatever you want.
Speaker 1: Do you want to get Jacoby Myers all the way involved?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: I don't think the Jets score to do it because
Speaker 2: I look, I'm not going to bet this, but to
Speaker 2: take it in the contest to give me something root
Speaker 2: for and watch here, let's let's do it, because because
Speaker 2: here's my here's here's why I like it. And I
Speaker 2: mean I wish it was seven at seven and a half.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't say that hook. But so that's
Speaker 2: why I wouldn't bet it. But but you know, in
Speaker 2: terms of looking at it and saying, okay, because this
Speaker 2: might be my involved in my teaser for the week,
Speaker 2: and you know, the Patriots are at are on the
Speaker 2: road here. But one thing that I am really curious
Speaker 2: about is if the Jets want to lose and they
Speaker 2: don't want to win, the Patriots have a lot of
Speaker 2: pride still, and sometimes that's all you need really in
Speaker 2: these games with no fans, that if you're more motivated,
Speaker 2: if you're more focused. Like that's why right now there's
Speaker 2: this crazy trend for underdogs in prime time because they
Speaker 2: hear all week up here comes the team that's gonna
Speaker 2: come in and beat you. So out of the gate,
Speaker 2: like the Giants out of the gate, there was no
Speaker 2: juice or fire for the Bucks coming out of the
Speaker 2: gate in that game. It was all about the Giants.
Speaker 2: So I don't think the Jets are going to have
Speaker 2: any of that juice until they fire their head coach
Speaker 2: and when they fire Adam Gase. As I have said,
Speaker 2: the week after they fire Adam Gase, I will bet
Speaker 2: on the Jets to cover the spread, whatever it is.
Speaker 2: But until they do that, the other side is the
Speaker 2: right play.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly how I feel. And so you'll be
Speaker 1: betting on the Jets in Week one of the twenty
Speaker 1: twenty one NFL season because they are apparently just gonna
Speaker 1: I mean that what could Adam Gays possibly do at
Speaker 1: this moment to get fired like legitimately, So I think
Speaker 1: they're just going to ride this out and then fire
Speaker 1: them and then hopefully hire the enemy and that'll be it.
Speaker 2: So you think you guys are getting them, huh? I
Speaker 2: have no idea the Texans. The Texans thinks that they're
Speaker 2: getting them.
Speaker 1: They may, they may.
Speaker 2: That was just my okay. The Texans fans all believe
Speaker 2: that they're getting him because Shaun Watson worked with him
Speaker 2: and knows him really well.
Speaker 1: So it certainly could happen. And it's not as if
Speaker 1: we are at the moment a particularly desirable place, and
Speaker 1: so that's certainly possible. The eighty percent of our experts
Speaker 1: are taking the Patriots in this game as well at
Speaker 1: seven and a half as well, so they're they're okay
Speaker 1: with with so okay, we'll put it in. So that
Speaker 1: really gives us four meat at Seattle getting two and
Speaker 1: a half from the Bills, the Chiefs got five.
Speaker 2: What do you mean that's five?
Speaker 1: What's five the list? What was our fifth?
Speaker 2: Seattle, Kansas City, Arizona Saints Patriots.
Speaker 1: We didn't I didn't put the Saints in. I didn't
Speaker 1: know that. That's why you wanted to go with that.
Speaker 1: You were good to go with that one.
Speaker 2: So I'm fine with the Saints. If you're fine with
Speaker 2: the Saints. But if you're not, that we can put it.
Speaker 2: We can keep it on the maybe in the maybe category.
Speaker 1: No, I'm good with it. I'm good with the Saints.
Speaker 1: Then that's fine. Let's run through the rest of the
Speaker 1: games though here for for you know, our listener's sake.
Speaker 1: The only other game which I kind of liked, which
Speaker 1: would be really tough to take was the Steelers laying
Speaker 1: thirteen and a half.
Speaker 2: I thought you were going to go there. That's funny,
Speaker 2: I was. I really thought you were going to go there.
Speaker 2: I there's no other way to play this but the Steelers.
Speaker 2: But yikes, right, what we haven't seen what happens if
Speaker 2: one of the three quarterbacks I'm not Patanucci, but what
Speaker 2: happened to the other two quarterbacks come out and play decent?
Speaker 1: Then that's legitimately why I hesitate and why it was
Speaker 1: like the last game on my list, because I don't
Speaker 1: know if Cooper Rush or Garrett Gilbert is going to
Speaker 1: be able to move the ball whatsoever. And you know,
Speaker 1: I hate variables.
Speaker 2: So they know the system. Yeah, I mean nothing else.
Speaker 2: They know the system, so it's like, uh, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, eighty six percent of experts are with the Steelers.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm fine. I'm good as long as you're
Speaker 1: good with the Saints. I like the Sands game over
Speaker 1: that bat o.
Speaker 2: I like that much better than laying thirteen and a
Speaker 2: half on the road.
Speaker 1: That's fine, I'm good to do that as well. I
Speaker 1: do like that side, but I agree that it's a
Speaker 1: little iffy. All right, let's go through the remaining I
Speaker 1: believe three games. I missed one last week. I'm very sorry, listeners.
Speaker 1: I think I missed the Titans that always did whoop,
Speaker 1: it's my bed, it's my bad. Okay, let's do. The
Speaker 1: Texans lank seven and a half to the Jaguars in Jacksonville.
Speaker 2: Again, this is a quarterback swap, so it's why I
Speaker 2: can't like it. I mean, I initially thought about taking
Speaker 2: the Jags, and I looked at it and I was
Speaker 2: like plus seven and a half. I was like, okay, maybe,
Speaker 2: but a quarterback swap for me, I just can't. I
Speaker 2: don't know what to expect out of that. Offense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the thing that they do have COVID concerns.
Speaker 1: By the way, with Houston, so true, that is a
Speaker 1: little worrisome as well. But I agree, I don't know
Speaker 1: at all what we're going to see here. So it's
Speaker 1: a game where I'm not going anywhere at over a touchdown.
Speaker 1: It is down to a touchdown line in the consensus lines,
Speaker 1: and our experts are at seventy six percent favoring Houston,
Speaker 1: which I get. But it's something where I don't know
Speaker 1: what Newton is gonna look like. Bronco's getting three and
Speaker 1: a half from the Falcons in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: I mean Drew Lock on the road. No, I just
Speaker 2: can't trust Drew Lock. I mean, I just he's like
Speaker 2: I'm gonna keep on dancing. Yeah, you keep on dancing,
Speaker 2: you fool. But no, I'm just not I don't like
Speaker 2: Drew Lock. I didn't like him in college. I don't
Speaker 2: like him in the NFL. I have a hard time.
Speaker 2: They got a gift because the charge of the Chargers. No,
Speaker 2: can't do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, people are are they like the Broncos in this game.
Speaker 1: I've had people talk to me about it. I don't
Speaker 1: like it. I'm certainly not back in the Falcons because
Speaker 1: I'm never back, Like I'm not going there, but I'm not.
Speaker 1: I just I'm not. They look terrible in that game,
Speaker 1: Like I get that the Chargers were gonna charge her,
Speaker 1: but they look terrible in that game overall, So I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna go there as well. Last game, which I
Speaker 1: would have let you talked me into this one, by
Speaker 1: the way, if you liked it, is Washington laying two
Speaker 1: and a half to the Giants in Washington.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not betting or taking anything to do with
Speaker 2: the NFC East Okay inter division now like we're playing
Speaker 2: another but inside the division, Yep, I don't care. I
Speaker 2: mean no like Cowboys Washington, you know, New York versus
Speaker 2: the Eagles, Like it's just you just can't. This is
Speaker 2: the most pathetic division in football. It's just that, I mean,
Speaker 2: Washington might win the division. They really might. So if
Speaker 2: you said Washington, okay, maybe, but I think they could
Speaker 2: be fool's goal too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that. I think I take the Washington
Speaker 1: football team if I had to in this game under
Speaker 1: because I think they're gonna win. And we said it
Speaker 1: in that first game, even though I think they lost
Speaker 1: the first game, but covered right, was that the one
Speaker 1: that the Giants won by one? I think that Washington
Speaker 1: was getting two and a half. I think Washington's gonna
Speaker 1: win this game. Yeah, Daniel Jones' played better. I mean
Speaker 1: he's He's missed plenty of throws, but I still think
Speaker 1: off bye, I like more what Kyle Allen is doing
Speaker 1: a little bit. So I knew.
Speaker 2: How did I lose that bet on Monday? How did
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones should have thrown two interceptions on that last drive? Yes,
Speaker 2: not one, but two, like one, okay, fine, but two
Speaker 2: different times the balls should have been picked. I just
