Straight Fire for Friday, October. 3 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: It's Halloween weekend. I know everybody's fired up for some 4 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: really good NFL content On this podcast. We have a 5 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: great guest. He's new to the gambling scene. He has 6 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: joined the New York Post a little while back and 7 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: is doing a bunch of gambling for them. Eric Richter, 8 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: I think you guys will enjoy it. Um, lengthy uh 9 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: talk about NFL M m A. It's good. And after 10 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: that I will break down all my bets that are 11 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 1: in and the potential for the contest this week. It's weird. 12 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: I kind of like a lot of games. Um. But 13 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: first we've got to address the fading Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 14 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: Holy cow, folks, this is stunning. Not only did Tampa 15 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: waste a ten three halftime lead and get their doors 16 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: blown off in the second half by the Baltimore to 17 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: fall to three and five. Blah blah blah blah. Wait 18 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:19,639 Speaker 1: it gets worse. Afterward, Todd Bowles announced that the best 19 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: defensive lineman for the Bucks Shack Barrett Achilles injury. It 20 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: doesn't look good. He's going to have an m R. 21 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 1: I folks, listen, I know it feels like the season 22 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: is over for Tampa. And I'm the nerd who went 23 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: through their UM schedule and I looked at the games 24 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: and and I don't care what you say that, oh, well, 25 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: that that's not a loss. They lost to Pittsburgh, they 26 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: lost to Carolina. This team is not good. They're just 27 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: not good. Right now. They have the Rams next week. Now, 28 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: the Rams are coming off the Niners game, which is 29 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: gonna be a huge rivalry game. Rams are gonna put 30 00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,919 Speaker 1: everything into that game. They cannot lose with the Niners 31 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: in Then they got a game against Seattle. I think 32 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: that is that the game in Germany. Rob That is correct, Okay, 33 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: So then they got to fly to Germany against Seattle. 34 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,839 Speaker 1: And listen, Seattle before the season. That's a win right now. 35 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: I don't Seattle better than Tampa. Seattle might be, I 36 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: don't freaking know. Then you get Cleveland, which likes to 37 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: run the football, and then you say, well, Tampa's run defense. Well, 38 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: if you listen to yes or his interview with the 39 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Beat reporter for the Athletic, Tampa's run defenses 40 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 1: and Jack squad and I'm looking at the stats here 41 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: and uh, they kind of got trucked again. If you 42 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: if you didn't think it was bad Carolina running all 43 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: over them. Guss the bus got his and then Kenyan Drake, 44 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: who I like a jackass. I benched him in fantasy, thinking, Oh, 45 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: it's Tampa, I can be able to do anything. Gus 46 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: At sixty five, Drake sixty two, Lamar forty three, duvern A, Uh, 47 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: either reverse or an end around thirty three, Justice Shi 48 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: two and thirty one yards on the ground for Baltimore. Guys, 49 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: are you this is not a good Tampa run defense. 50 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: And now Shack Barrett's done with an achilles? Are you 51 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: kidding me? I listen. I don't want to go through 52 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: every single game on the schedule and bore you, but 53 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: the bottom line right now, this is like a seven 54 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: or eight win team in Tampa Bay. I personally, I 55 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: don't think they're winning in San Francisco in December. By 56 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: the time they play the Bengals in December, Joe Joe 57 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: Burrow will have Jamar Chase back Jamar Chase. Obviously you 58 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: saw the news out four to six weeks. Not ideal, 59 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: but he should be back for that game. Uh, the 60 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: game in Arizona on Christmas Day. Listen, I think Arizona's 61 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: trending upward. We'll get the best bet later. I think 62 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: they can. Basically I got them covering against Minnesota and 63 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: I have them on the money line. I think this 64 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: arrow is pointing up on Arizona. And they closed with 65 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: Carolina and Atlanta, and they were struggling with both of 66 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,839 Speaker 1: them this year. So, you know, we talked about Tom 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: Brady in retirement. I just can't believe Tom Brady came 68 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: back for this. You know, Tom Brady comes back, puts 69 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: his marriage on the line, and he's got a seven 70 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: win Tampa Bay team. Now, they still could get to 71 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: the postseason because, and this is embarrassing, they might host 72 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: a home playoff game. Now, memory serves rob when Tampa 73 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl and beat the Chiefs, they 74 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: had to go to Washington in the first round because 75 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: Washington hosted a playoff game because they won the division. 76 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: I think that happened, right, Yes, So there is a 77 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: chance that seven and ten or eight and nine Tampa 78 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: hosts a playoff game because they win the really really pathetic, 79 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: the moribund NFC South. All that being said, Rob, if 80 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: you're Tom Brady, you could see the frustration mounting with 81 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: the penalties. He threw a touchdown pass to this tight 82 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: end who actually the guests yesterday Greg mentioned, I'm not 83 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: even making this up. My son plays fantasy against his buddy. 84 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: The dad listens to the podcast. The kid picked up 85 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: the tight end Otto, whatever his name is. The guy 86 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: catches a touchdown from Brady, there's a flag, it's holding. 87 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: It comes back and and Brady like threw up his hands. 88 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 1: He was ticked off, and frustration is setting in. Listen. 89 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: This is this is the that I don't know if 90 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: this is rock bottom and Tom Brady's career, but it 91 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: certainly has to be close. Rob. Oh, absolutely, I mean, 92 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: and it's not like to your point, it's not even 93 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: just on the football field, like his life around him 94 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: is falling apart. He sacrificed his his family basically so 95 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: he could play the Carolina Panthers twice a year and 96 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: be on a three and five football team. And I 97 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: feel stupid for saying, you know, a few weeks ago 98 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: that I thought they were the most dangerous team. They 99 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 1: were my pick to come out of the NFC, and 100 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: I feel dumb, not because I said it. I feel 101 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: dumb because the writing was on the wall. It should 102 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: have been there when I made that proclamation. Look, this 103 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: Chief's team has not played a even solid offensive game 104 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: all season. The only time you can even point it 105 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: out would be against the Chiefs when they lost one. 106 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: But that game was twenty one to three in the 107 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: first quarter and a half, and so Kansas City went 108 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: to like a prevent defense moves of the way and 109 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: just said, all right, go ahead, You're not gonna catch 110 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: up into us at this rig So we go ahead, 111 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: and you know, take your yards. Tom Brady, like, this 112 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: offense looks so bad, it's boring, it's born. And you 113 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: know what's funny is you and I were joking before 114 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: the podcast because I know where I get to the 115 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: NBA today because it's the Football Friday. But I was 116 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: saying that the Sixers and the Nets should be so 117 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: thankful that the Lakers exist because nobody's talking about their 118 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: ugly starts. It's it's all about the Lakers. Similarly, Tom 119 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: Brady should be so thankful that the Green Bay Packers 120 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: exist because this taple look all much better than green 121 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: Bay right now. No, but because Aaron Rodgers does his 122 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: weekly hits on Pat McAfee show, and he throws his 123 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: teammates under the bus. That's all anyone's talking about. Well, 124 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: that that's an interesting comment right now. Who do you 125 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: think is in worsshape as a team? Green Bay or Tampa. 126 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: That's actually I was gonna say green Bay because Aaron 127 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: Rodgers just throwing his teammates under the bus. Brady hasn't 128 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: gone there. But Brady plays plays a Thursday and in 129 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: football game at home, loses, frustrated as hell, goes home 130 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: and his wife ain't even there, and the kid probably 131 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: not the kids either, and he's all alone in this mansion. 132 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: Now he's got like the mini bye week, right, and 133 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: what's he doing is he is his family even with him. 134 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: You know, you feel a little sad for Tom. He's 135 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: had enough good things in his life happened obviously. Obviously 136 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: to answer your question, though, the team that I'm more 137 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: worried about would be the Green Bay Packers um, even 138 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: though I think they have a better chance to improve 139 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: because their issues is really just they have inexperienced guys 140 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: a receiver, and so you would think as the year 141 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: goes on, they would get better and better. But to 142 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: your point, the biggest reason why I'm more confident in 143 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: Tampa than green Bay is because the NFC South is 144 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: just terrible and and to your point, they can be 145 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: a sub five team winning that division and Green Bay 146 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,679 Speaker 1: doesn't have that luxury at all. By the way, Tampa 147 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: rushed for whopping forty four yards. That's it, Baltimore two 148 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: and thirty one. Listen, I would love to crow bar 149 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: in some NBA some nutjob nets fan through a drink 150 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: at Luca Um. But I do have to say this 151 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 1: about the Bucks and Ravens game. Rob. I had never 152 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: heard of Isaiah Likely in my life. He went to 153 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina. He was a backup to Mark Andrews. I 154 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: don't know if he had any any catches or or anything. Um, 155 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: but I cannot recall Isaiah Likely ever coming on my 156 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: radar in college or even um in the NFL. Had 157 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: you heard of him? Yes? And fantasy team no. But 158 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: because friend of the show Matthew Berry, I'm avid listener 159 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 1: to his podcast and he has been talking up Isaiah 160 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: Likely since the preseason. He was like, Hey, this guy 161 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: could be the number two option because of how much 162 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson throws at the tight ends. Now, I didn't 163 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: need to get him because I had Travis Kelsey, But 164 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: shout out to a friend of the show, Matthew Berry, 165 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: for being on this one early. Yeah. Holy cow. So 166 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: coming into this game, he had looks like eight team 167 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: catches for a hundred four yards. In this game he 168 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: had seven for seventy seven and his first NFL touchdown. 169 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: He just moves like like a big receiver. I mean 170 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: some of these, some of these moves that he had, 171 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: and like the toe tap in the back of the 172 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: end zone was like, this guy's athletic as hell. What 173 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: a pick in the fourth round. And you know what happens, 174 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: rob when I see these guys like fourth rounders pop 175 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: like this, I instantly go to the draft look around 176 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: there and pray that my Jets didn't riff on some 177 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: meatball and then they miss out on a guy like 178 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: Isaiah Likely. Um. But at anyway, Tampa Bay's in a 179 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: world of trouble and um uh, this is gonna be 180 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: a long week of soul searching for Is it Thomas 181 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: Edward Brady?

Yeah, yeah, so you are kind of well, 206 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: we'll get the NFL in a sect. But your background 207 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: of not only do you cover and gamble on m 208 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: m A, but you are a jiu jitsu fighter yourself, Yes, sir, Yeah, 209 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: blue belt jiu jitsu, have been training for almost four 210 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: years and absolutely love it. That's kind of where I 211 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: started betting on mm A. UM. Also obviously huge sports fan. 212 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: I cover every sport football, basketball, or my probably my 213 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: main betting sports as long as well as M m A. 214 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: But otherwise I think baseball is not as much of 215 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: a thing. I feel it's just all walk based barrel 216 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: percentage is I'm sure the Yankees can relate to that 217 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: with the Aaron Judge complaints on that home run. But 218 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: but yeah, sports betting with the New York Post. Prior 219 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: to that, I was with the Action Network that does 220 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: their sports betting powerhouse that they have become. UM. But yeah, 221 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: so super hugged to be here and I appreciate you 222 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 1: having yeah, and so you know, gambling on social media. Eric, 223 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: I, I I know you're a little on the younger side obviously, 224 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: but it's just so funny the the anonymous guys always 225 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: win all the time. They don't post their picks, but 226 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: they tell you they win all the time, and then 227 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: they come after when you lose. Um, I'm just curious. 228 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: You are on the rise. How much of this gambling 229 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: social media nonsense do you take in or are you 230 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: able to totally avoid it? It's mostly bs uh, to 231 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: be honest with you, all of the gambling touts out there, 232 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: there are some legitimate ones, and yet you really have 233 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: to pick and choose. But when you have, you know, 234 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: people are just like, well, you know this is my 235 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: lock of the week, my max bomb play twenty units here, 236 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: twenty five units here. That's not real sports betting. And 237 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: and to be honest with you, like with the parlays 238 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: and all that stuff, like it's cool to parlay sometimes, 239 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: and I can go into teaching people how to actually 240 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: parlay and do same game parlays, but there is there's 241 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: a way to do it. There's a way not to 242 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: do it, and a lot of things you see online 243 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: it's not how you do it. Um, But if it wins, 244 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: you know you get all you get all the Twitter cloud. 245 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: You have fifty followers on Twitter, and you know, and 246 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: then you can probably sell it to somebody at from 247 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: that point, you know, I have a big following, but 248 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: there is a way to do it right and there's 249 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: a way to do it wrong. And a lot of 250 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 1: Twitter gambling Twitter is just nonsense. So one last thing, 251 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: because you're younger, So I'm on a bunch of different 252 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: group text chains for gambling with buddies. And literally today 253 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: a guy sent me a TikTok of some guy I 254 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: have no idea who he is, hyping up all his 255 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: winds and giving out all these crazy picks. I am curious, Eric, 256 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: you're of the younger set. Are you on TikTok? And 257 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: have you seen these gambling people on TikTok? I'm not 258 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: a big TikTok guy, I'll be honest, um, but that 259 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: I have heard that there's a lot of stuff that 260 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: goes on with TikTok. Like there's this one guy I'm 261 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: not gonna say his name, but you know he's always 262 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: like getting into like fake Twitter beefs with people just 263 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: to like that's his way of getting like, um, just 264 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: more followers. Everyone likes controversy three so everyone, so he'll 265 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: like attack somebody for getting a pick wrong and then 266 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: they'll have a back and forth and then he'll get 267 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: the rug from it. It's really it's really odd the 268 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: way people get followers on social media in gambling Twitter. 269 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: It's bizarre and it's just really not how like the 270 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: real world works. You're just giving people bad advice. Totally agree. Alright, 271 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: let's so let's get every every Friday, we break out 272 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: the NFL schedule, go through it, go through picks. I 273 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: haven't bet a lot this week. I'll confess up front. Uh, 274 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: Monday night hurt bad. I was on the Patriots big 275 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: they knocked me out of both of my survivor pools. 276 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: UM one is a very big money one. It hurts. 277 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: So I didn't look at gambling for I think like 278 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: almost forty eight hours. I just avoided everything. Um, I'm 279 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: back in now. I have a couple of bets. Any 280 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: games jump out to you on the week eight card 281 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: this weekend. Um, you can start with the London game. 282 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: You can go to any high profile games. A couple 283 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: of double digit uh spreads? Uh? Any what what what 284 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: do you see that you like? Pop? One that I 285 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: looked at was my King's card. I don't really, I 286 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: don't really see how the Vikings are three and a 287 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: half point favorites. Uh, they're probably there besides the Giants, right, 288 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: they're lucky. They're really lucky five and one team. Um 289 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: and just looking at it, uh, through like overall the 290 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: offenses here are just going to clash. These are horrible 291 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: defensive teams at best. This is gonna be a coin 292 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: flip game. You get the Cardinals here a plus one 293 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: fifty five on DraftKings. I mean, I'm all over that. 294 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: I like the over as well. Um and uh, former 295 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: colleague of mine at the Action now with Seawan Corner 296 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: created something called the luck Rankings. I'm not sure if 297 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: you're familiar where your listeners are familiar, but essentially what 298 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: he did was he created um expected scores of each game, 299 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: combined them into into expected records, so he didn't expected 300 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: scores of each game, and then combined into expected records 301 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: with the goal of having the luckiest team in the NFL. 302 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: So the number one luckiest team in the NFL is 303 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: the New York Giants, the least lucky team is the 304 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: New England Patriots, which might surprise people. Seven the YEP 305 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: then and then the seventh luckiest team or the Minnesota Vikings, 306 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: so UM, and so that would say that they're five 307 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: one records a little bit flukey, right, so you can 308 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: kind of throw out the record on that one, UM, 309 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: and then you'll just say, you know, the Cardinals are 310 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: right where they're supposed to be in terms of luck. 311 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: They're sixteenth, which is directly in the middle, and there 312 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: are three and four, so it makes sense. UM, so 313 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: that you know, self, I think is very valuable and 314 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: against the spread, they're hitting at picks. When when when 315 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: you compare the luck rankings, UM, and then when you 316 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: go into the actual like nuts and bolts of the game, 317 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: the Vikings their ninth ranked on a profile Pro Football 318 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: Focus UM in defense that's really on the back of 319 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: the run defense. The third best run defense in the 320 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: NFL according to Pro Football Focus, but they have the 321 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: second worst past defense. Cardinals are really running the ball 322 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: anyway they're gonna be, they're gonna be airing it out. 323 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: So and then you have the Cardinals were also the 324 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: third worst coverage defense. So you're looking at these two, 325 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: it screams and over on forty nine, it screams a 326 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: coin flip game where you know anything to kind of happened. 327 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: You take the those plus one um and you can 328 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: you can go plus three and a half. You want, 329 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: you want that hook. I mean that hook is very important. 330 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: But I'd say right off the bat, you're looking at 331 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals there if you want to tack some props, 332 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray rushing yards, Kyler Murray rushing touchdown, DeAndre Hopkins everything, 333 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: because Kyler Murray loved well. I think also the Vikings, 334 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: according a Football Outsiders, have ranked thirty feet in the 335 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: league defender defending number one wide receivers. They've just gotten 336 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: torched their dead last against tight end. So I have 337 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: an Earth's prop. I was going to give out later, 338 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: but I'm with you. Arizona one of the teams. I 339 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: bet I am curious. You know trends, We talked about 340 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: them a lot, right, So there's all these trends. Fox 341 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: provides them to me. They have Cliff Kingsbury fifteen three 342 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: and two against the spread as an underdog on the road. Right, 343 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: So now people will say, well, wait is it what 344 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: about the Seattle game? They just lost that because and 345 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: I'll say no, they were actually favored in that game. 346 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: I was on Arizona. That one hurt uh, Cliff Kinsbury's 347 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: one eighth straight on the road as a dog, like 348 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: for whatever a reason getting away from Arizona, Like, does 349 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: that matter at all to you? Obviously it's baked into 350 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: the spread. But when you hear that and trends in general, 351 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: what is it? What do they do for you? Everything 352 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: is case by case, right, so not everything is something 353 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: but not Uh, something is everything, but not everything is 354 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: something when it comes to that. So, um, when it 355 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 1: comes to like playing as an underdog, that is something 356 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 1: that you'll take into account. But when you're talking about like, well, 357 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, um on the road on you know, second October, 358 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: a second week of October, like in the last like 359 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,479 Speaker 1: five years, Like I was looking at um, it's like, 360 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: how are the Patriots do against the Jets? Historically? Throw 361 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: it out the window. It doesn't matter because you know, 362 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: you have Brady and Belichick. It's a different team, different culturally, 363 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: different everything. So when it comes to the trends, I'm 364 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: a little ify on them. Um, you know, the ones 365 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: that really matter here, I would say, are the wins 366 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: on single possession? How many wins did they have at 367 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: that very end of the game. Let's say those are 368 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: the ones that matter as an underdog. I'll take that 369 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: into account. It's not going to factor a ton um, 370 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: but you know, it is, like it is important to 371 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: know if Kyler Murray is good as an underdog. You know, 372 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: there's a lot of variants involved there. Yeah, the Vikings, Um, 373 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: they beat the Lions by four, they got lucky, they 374 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: had to come back late. They beat the Saints by 375 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: three that London game. Again some luck involved last second 376 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: field goal, beat the Bears when they survived a late 377 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: justin fields drive. And then they beat the Miami second 378 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: and third string quarterbacks. So and they were good offensively 379 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: in that game. Like, I like this team a lot, 380 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: I just don't think they're that good. So I would 381 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: agree with the luck rankings. Would you say they were seventh? 382 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: So the Vikings are seventh, and then the Cardinals are 383 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: smacking a little middle at sixteen, that's right where they 384 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: should be. The Vikings at seventh, I would put them 385 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: in the elite category in the NFL's very likely not that, 386 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: especially with Week one they beat the Packers and that 387 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: that wins and look at yeah that's a great point. 388 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: So the number one team you said in luck is 389 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: the New York Giants and they are six and one, 390 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: and I think some people are gonna be surprised that 391 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: their road dogs in Seattle. It's a tough road spot, right, 392 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: they get back from London, they're at home against the 393 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: Ravens team then fly down to Jacksonville. Now they're flying 394 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: to Seattle. They got the bye week coming up. Seattle's hot. 395 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I I'm I think I'm going to take 396 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: the Giants here in the contest, but I don't feel 397 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: totally convinced of it. Um or you have anything on 398 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 1: this game, I probably talk you off the ledge on 399 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: that one. Um so set fan. Yeah, so I was 400 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: at I'm a Giants fan. I was at the game 401 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 1: against the Ravens. I was, I was on the Ravens, 402 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: and then I went to Jacksonville. I was, I was 403 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: on jackson I was on the jet the Giants in Jacksonville. 404 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: I flew to Jacksonville for the game. And that was 405 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,239 Speaker 1: a Giants home game if I've ever seen one. It 406 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: was sevent Giants fans. I've never seen anything like it 407 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: like Jacksonville. I don't know if they just don't have fans. 408 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: My first time going to their stadium, but it was 409 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: unreal that was a Giant's home game, So yeah, it 410 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: was a road game technically, but if you were you know, 411 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: they were plus three. If that was gonna be a 412 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: money line at the Giants home stadium, it was pretty 413 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: much I pick him there. When you go to Seattle, 414 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: you're dealing with the twelfth Man and they are fired 415 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: up right now. They had Pete Carroll has that team 416 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: jumping up and down. They are talking all sorts of 417 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: sh about Russell Wilson. Um, they're doing the whole thing 418 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: right now. So I would say Giants are probably a 419 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: stay away there. Even at the plus three, I think 420 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: the Seahawks are probably gonna win out right and cover. Um. 421 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: I just not. I'm not into the Giants on the 422 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: road yet. I'll see, but these last two upsets, those 423 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: were home games. Don't let the location actually for you. 424 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: The home road thing is weird. So Daniel Jones, for whatever, 425 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: I stopped betting him at home because he was so 426 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: bad on the road fifteen and six against the spread. 427 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the bright light to New York, 428 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: but the only reason I brought this game up was uh, 429 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: and it applies to the Arizona game. One of the 430 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: things I look at is pressure rate getting to the quarterback. 431 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: Arizona they love to dial up the blitz. They pressure 432 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: the hell out of the quarterbacks. I think Kirk Cousins 433 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: will struggle. He historically has against pressure. The other guy, 434 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: Gino Smith, Arizona dialed up the pressure their number two 435 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: in pressure rate, and Gino had like his worst game 436 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: of the season. Now they still won because freaking Cliff 437 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: Kingsbury's an idiot when kid Field goals. Um, but I'm 438 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: just curious, Wink Martindale is gonna blitz the ship out 439 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: of Gino And I was just wonder is Geno gonna crumble? 440 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: No DK Metcalf at least it looks like he's not 441 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: gonna play. Um, you know, maybe you could throw it 442 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: up the locket a little bit, but I don't know, 443 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: I think, and again I don't like the Giants have 444 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: a Jets guy, But I don't know. We'll see, we'll 445 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: we'll TBD that one. Um, do you have any other 446 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: games that you have fired on yet or are you 447 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: looking at getting into for sure? So I'm interested in 448 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: em Bears if they were to get to tend that's 449 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: something to look at their right not gonna have everywhere. 450 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm interested at ten just because they run the ball 451 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: in the and the Cowboys have a bad run defense 452 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: their fifth worst by Pro Football Focus. And that's important 453 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: because the Cowboys haven't really played any high pressure or 454 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: high quality run offenses. They're not facing Lamar Jackson yet, um, 455 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: you know, so that's something to look at because the 456 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys run defense is ranked very low by Profoble group 457 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: Profball Focus, fifth worst. Didn't love what I saw from 458 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 1: Dak looked like a rich Man's Cooper rush. Mobility has 459 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: kind of gone from his game, uh, to be honest, 460 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: and and mobility has kind of gone for from his 461 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: game in the reality. So you know, I just I 462 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: don't really trust the Cowboys. They're as ten point favorites. 463 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: And I think that the Bears, Yes, like it was 464 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: like a lucky little situation. They had a bunch of 465 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: momentum going with the Patriots, but they at least got 466 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: Justin Field out of the pocket, right, They weren't doing 467 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: that by the way we're used to, Eric, were you 468 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: surprised that the Patriots did not spy Justin Fields? Like? 469 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: Belichick is a great coach obviously, and and and he 470 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: had nobody's spine. Field Field just tucked and run. I 471 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: felt like every other play. Yeah, that was unreal. You know, 472 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: I don't even think it's a belt. It was definitely 473 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: a Belichick problem. But I also think it's more of 474 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: a personnel problem, um, because I don't think that he 475 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: has a linebacker. He doesn't have Dante Hi Tower anymore. Right, 476 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: Like that's a problem, Like they haven't been able to 477 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: get that linebacker in the door. They can get that 478 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: linebacker in the door one day. Maybe they can do 479 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: more things like that. But if you're gonna ask a safety, 480 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: do you ask Jalen Mills to go out there and 481 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: and spy him? Like? Probably not. Um. I think he 482 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: was actually kind of trying to do that with Matthew 483 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: Judon Uh, to be honest with you, he's an animal. 484 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: I think that they were trying to do that with 485 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: Judon Um a little bit with Fields, but he's just 486 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: not fast enough. There's and you know, it just seems 487 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: like he didn't know what to do with with a 488 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: moving quarterback, Belichick, and that's a problem. I am curious 489 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: speaking of moving quarterbacks, justin Fields will be facing a 490 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense that I mean, obviously Michael Parsons is a beast. 491 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 1: I think they lead the league in sex. One interesting 492 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: nugget is they've now faced I mean, if we're gonna 493 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: count Daniel Jones Jalen Hurts, they faced three running quarterbacks 494 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: so far. So this will not be really anything new. 495 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: And I am curious, like you can't quantify it. But 496 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Bears win a incredible primetime game. Everybody says, oh, suddenly, 497 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: they're probably not the worst team the league. They're probably 498 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: not thirty one. And I don't know if you stall 499 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: a locker room videos. They were dancing like they won 500 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. But there's Justin, Justin Fields doing every 501 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: dance known demand, there's I mean, it was a long 502 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: celebration and now you've got to kind of not a 503 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: quick turnaround, but short week, and you got to travel again, 504 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: this time to Dallas, and Dallas did not look good. 505 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: They didn't look sharp. I was on Detroit, and of 506 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: course Detroit was covering for fifty six minutes to start 507 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: the game and screw it up with Jared. I was 508 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: looking at Dallas. Here you think at tenants the Bears? 509 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: Is it Dallas and half nine and a half to 510 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: stay away? Um, I'm not. I don't. It's not even 511 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: so much. The Cowboys defense is elite. I have them 512 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: pretty much in every fantasy team. Like I love the 513 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: Cowboys defense, They're extremely elite. My problem is their offense. 514 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: I really don't think that Doc is what he used 515 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: to be, and I think that without Zeke there might 516 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: not even have the ball control. Everyone's really on Tony 517 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: Pollard's like, you know, you know Tony Pollard RB one season, right, 518 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: everybody's staying that. But for me, I would say that 519 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: I have issues with the Cowboys offense more so than 520 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 1: the Cowboys defense. If the Bears can do a little 521 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: do a little stay away, keep away, and um, the 522 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys run defense, like I said, not great, doesn't rank 523 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: well in full advanced stats. I'll take the Bears at 524 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: plus ten nine and a half. I'm not touching about 525 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: I forgot to ask what about the Robert Quinn trade. 526 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that it's a fire sale 527 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: because they don't have much talent. But after you get 528 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: a big win, you're like all fired up, and then 529 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: they trade their second best defensive player. I think I saw, um, 530 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: what's the linebacker? Um, ro Quan Smith. I think he 531 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,959 Speaker 1: was like tearing up over the lost crime. Yeah, how 532 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: does the locker room react? Like again, I would think 533 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: they would be like, oh, nobody cares, but Carolina trades 534 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: McCaffrey and then they beat Tampa Bay. So can you 535 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: can you factor that into the handicap at all? Not really? 536 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: I mean if we were just say, like, you know, 537 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: some quarterbacks are worth barely a half of a point 538 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: on a spread, I would say, you know, a defensive end, 539 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: even even if he's like a top level one, I'd 540 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: say your maximum is probably worth half a point for 541 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: for one player. So I would say Bears with Robert Quinn, 542 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys aren't gonna be passing the ball very much anyway, 543 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: unless it's just an emotional thing. Could be an emotional 544 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: thing for sure, where it just you know, frustrates like 545 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: the team in the locker room and stuff like that. 546 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: But in terms of like points, like, there's even stats 547 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: out there to quantify the point differential on a spread 548 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: compared from the starter to back up, and I think 549 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: like the highest one last year was Aaron Rodgers worth 550 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: like six points to the spread versus love um, I 551 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: would say that Robert Quinn is probably worth half the 552 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: point even joke that Butler was worth a point and 553 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: a half to the Chiefs not having him killed him 554 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: against Uh was it the Colts game? They they special teams, 555 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: just a disaster. Um, here's something so, you know, on 556 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: the Herd on Thursday, Mark Sanchez said something interesting. He 557 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: was announcing the Chargers Seahawks game, and you know they 558 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: talk to the teams before and he said on air, 559 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: just so people don't think I'm divulging anything, He's like, yeah, 560 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers were talking about the bye week and they 561 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: were getting ready to ahead of the bye week, and 562 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: you know, the vibe was bye week and they come 563 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: out and they're down seventeen nothing. And I started to 564 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: look at this. Um. So I looked at the last 565 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,360 Speaker 1: three weeks. Teams playing before their by have gone eight 566 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: and two heading into the bye only two teams lost. 567 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: They were coached by bad coaches, Brandon Staley and Dan Campbell. 568 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: Dan Campbell got destroyed in New England twenty nine nothing. 569 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: When you hear something like that, is it even worth 570 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: a look? Because there are six teams getting ready to 571 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: go on the bye week this week, and again, I 572 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: know that's tough to factor into a handicap because you 573 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: can't put a number on it. But again it's a mindset. 574 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: You're an athlete, you do jiu jitsu. You know you're 575 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: going on vacation next week. You know the girlfriends saying, hey, 576 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: should we packed this? Or wife? Whatever you got? Um. 577 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: You know these guys on the in the NFL, they're 578 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: kind of excited for the bye week. I mean they 579 00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: haven't seen their families or spent time with him since 580 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: in August. I don't know, does that factory because Dallas 581 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: is on the buy next week? I have McCarthy. I 582 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: don't know if you like McCarthy as a coach or not. UM, 583 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: I'll just say the other teams are Cleveland, they play 584 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: Monday Night. Their coaches not great. Denver Nathaniel Hackett maybe 585 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: gets left in London. Uh, the Giants are going into 586 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: the buy, but they have a good coach. Uh. Pittsburgh 587 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Tomlin and then San fran which is interesting we'll talk 588 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: about in a second. That's interesting. UM. I actually haven't 589 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: heard of that staff before eating two going into a 590 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: bybe with the two coaches who lost are terrible. Man, 591 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: that is a tough one. UM. I would say, again, 592 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: everything is something something. Uh, everything is something. Not everything 593 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: is everything. Not something is everything. Um, but that's a 594 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: that's a tough one because, like, you know, eating two 595 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,959 Speaker 1: bad coaches lost, I'd like, I'd like to see like 596 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: all the coaches now ended up winning. Um. My only 597 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: reason for that is because like why, like it was 598 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: were they on the road? Were they at home? Like 599 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: I feel like there's more data to breakdown. That's just 600 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: just sitting on like an eating two going into the 601 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: bye with the two coaches being bad, I kind of 602 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: would want to see the other teams that ended up winning. 603 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: And then also, um, you know what, there are other 604 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: circumstances where road home underdog favorite stuff like that. Though 605 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: the Chargers bad loss, Brandon's Daley is not looking good 606 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: and me and Glass people have been on it for 607 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. Chargers not to make the playoffs was 608 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: plus three hundred after week one, Um, and that is 609 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: looking for not that team has been decimated, absolutely decimated 610 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: by injuries. Well, the only the only thing is Denver 611 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: stinks and I don't know if the Raiders are good 612 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: so they could luck. I mean, the a f C 613 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: has been really upside down. I mean, hell, you know, Bengals, 614 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: Ravens have not been able to get separation. You know, 615 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: it's that's a I think that's a good bet. You know, 616 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: plus three hundred. You said, yeah, yeah, but then you 617 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: got a root against Justin Herbert, who I think is very, 618 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: very likable. Another game, I'm curious if you're if you 619 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: have anything on this. UM, the Carolina Panthers go to Um, Atlanta. 620 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: Carolina not good, but just beat Tampa. A lot of 621 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: people I think would think I will just fade them 622 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: Atlanta covering machine that they ran out of gas last 623 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: week against the Bengals, and I wonder, but then you 624 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: look at the line movement and money coming in on Carolina. 625 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: There are cluster injuries in the secondary for Atlanta that 626 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: is really troublesome. Now, d J Moore, I haven't been fantasy. 627 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if you do fantasy, but I haven't 628 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: played DJ more in weeks because he's kind of a bump. 629 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: But I think I'm starting in this week against Atlanta. Yeah, 630 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: hotlant a terrible defense. UM and you know, I mean 631 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: I believe Mario would have had like, whats like, what 632 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,479 Speaker 1: are they doing in Atlanta? Arthur Smith not a huge fan. UM, 633 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, Carolina money coming in on Carolina. I saw 634 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: there plus five, plus five and hats going down. It's 635 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: going down to four. That's very interesting. Um, here's here's 636 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,959 Speaker 1: what I say about that. P J. Walker is a 637 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: clear upgrade. Were big that it's clear at this point 638 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: that Baker Mayfield one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. 639 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: And it's nothing against him, but um, that's just kind 640 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: of where Carolina is. I think they actually kind of 641 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: believed in PIJA Walker a little bit last week. I 642 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: think that that was a big part of it. He 643 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: looked pretty good. Um at plus four, I would say, yeah, 644 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's probably a decent spot. If it gets 645 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: to three, though, I'm not touching it. That's there. Your 646 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: number there is big four. Four, Okay, three absolutely not 647 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: So you know, it's it's funny how those things can change. 648 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: But when when you're looking at the spreads four versus three, 649 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's tough, but three not not a touch 650 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: at three.

Because I 658 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: think everybody the narrative right now is Buffalo, Ksey and 659 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: Philly are by far the best teams in the league, 660 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: and then there's a ship ton of middle class and 661 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: so I feel like if you're betting on Buffalo or 662 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: or Philly, you're paying a little bit of attacks, right 663 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: for sure? And well it's not even just attacks, um, 664 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: because you know you're getting the elite teams. It's attacks 665 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: because you're also getting them off of a bye. Everyone's like, oh, well, 666 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: you know, Buffalo off of a bye, Philadelphia off of 667 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: a bye. You know, like you need to get extra 668 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: time to prepare. But let's be honest, here, are the 669 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: Eagles really sitting up at night, you know, paying extra 670 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: attention to preparing for Kenny Pickett? Probably not right, you 671 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: know that that's not what's really happening there. So um, 672 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: in terms of the Eagles one staying away. UM, I'd 673 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: actually lean Packers at plus eleven and a half because 674 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: that's just an absurd number. Plus eleven and a half 675 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: absurd Packers. I mean, and here's here's the case for 676 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: green Bay. They're running offense is fantastic. Aaron Jones and 677 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: a J. Dillon are very solid players. Buffalo is obviously 678 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: going to stack the box. This might be an opportunity 679 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers, who's also called out all of his 680 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 1: teammates over the last week. There could be a spot 681 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: where maybe Romeo Dobbs doesn't dropped the game winning touchdown 682 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 1: his pagris, maybe this is the spot where he actually 683 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: catches it, you know, hold onto the ball. Um, you know, 684 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: if they're going to stack the box with a J. 685 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: Dillon and Aaron Jones, I think plus eleven is fine. Um, 686 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: if you had told me preseason that the Packers and 687 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: plus four versus Bills take that all day, you know. 688 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: But I mean, I'm not sure if they went out right, 689 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: you know in Buffalo. But you know, Packers aren't afraid 690 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: of any a little cold, so I'd say plus eleven 691 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: and a half. I mean, come on, and this is 692 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 1: a Bills team last year that lost against Jacksonville Pittsburgh. 693 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: I think they had a third pretty weak loss that 694 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: was just unimpressive. And one more thing is that Um, 695 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: there are there is sharp money coming in on Green 696 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,399 Speaker 1: Bay as of today of the money is on Green 697 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: Bay and the bets. So whenever the bets the the 698 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: amount of the percent of bets is lower than the 699 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: amount of money that's coming in, that's when you know 700 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: sharp money is coming in. Short money is coming in 701 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: on a Green Bay at this point. So that's that's 702 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: good that you brought that up because we've had a 703 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 1: couple of guests say that they look at the bet percentages. Um. Now, 704 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: sometimes you know that you'll say eighty percent of the 705 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: money is coming in on a certain team. But was 706 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: that at was that at eleven and a half? Is 707 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: that eleven is a ten and a half? Ten? Like? 708 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: Do they break that down for you? I don't know 709 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: where you where you find that. I think Visan has 710 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: a page with that for DraftKings, But um, do they 711 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 1: break it down like how much money was coming in 712 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: at what number? So they don't have that in terms 713 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: of coming in at each number. But it's something that 714 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 1: you should probably especially like sports betting, like I am 715 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: something you should probably keep it keep on top of. 716 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: There was no sharp money coming in as of two 717 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: days ago. Last time that I look, there's no sharp 718 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: money coming in on Green Bay. UM as of today, 719 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 1: eight percent of the money on Green Bay. So, I 720 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: mean a couple of big bets came in in the 721 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,320 Speaker 1: last forty hours last time I looked, UM. So a 722 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: couple of big bets coming in there would point to 723 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: some wise guys are probably going to start attacking eleven 724 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: and a half most likely the value there. UM. You 725 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: know there's sharp action big money UM are kind of 726 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: what you want to look for, and both of them 727 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 1: are right there. Yeah, it's interesting that you say a 728 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 1: road dog of double digits getting that. I mean, that's 729 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: kind of unheard of. Yeah, I don't think I get 730 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: that often. Uh. Let's wrap up with any props that 731 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: jump out of you. For instance, UH, forty Niners rams 732 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: UM Shanahan has dominated McVeigh, but there are significant injuries 733 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: to the Niners. I can't bet san France in this UM. 734 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 1: It looks like Deebo Samuel may not play. And it's 735 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: funny because Debo has killed the Rams all their prestap motion. 736 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: They I don't know if they lose track of Deebo Samuel, 737 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: but he has murdered and San France missing use check 738 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: their fullback. I think they're gonna be down like three 739 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: or four defensive starters. But I just don't like what 740 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: the Rams are putting out, the product they're they're sending out, 741 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: So I'm skipping this game. But are there any props 742 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: that that you've looked at? Uh, Cooper Cup, I believe 743 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 1: is receiving prop was and a half. You'll probably get 744 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: into a hundred um. I mean, that's just what make 745 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: a lot of money just betting Cooper Cup every week basically, right, Yeah, 746 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup overs pretty much on the regular um but 747 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 1: interest in terms of coverage UM, the forty Niners don't 748 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: have a very good coverage unit UM and Cooper Cup 749 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: is typically crushed them me is over a hundred yards 750 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: I think four straight games prior to the last time 751 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: that these two teams played, so um. I would say 752 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: like that, if you want to, like look at a 753 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, maybe uh score touchdown probably like minus one twenty. 754 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: I'm not really targeting that game for props. I do 755 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: have a couple of problems for the Jets versus um 756 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: um well overs, but maybe not in the way that 757 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: you're thinking. Let me let me get Zach Wilson passing yardage? 758 00:37:55,920 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: What is it? Uh one s nine? The line has 759 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 1: not come out for that one yet at the time, 760 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: but it's probably like one seven. It's probably in that area. 761 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: He hasn't passed forever. He might need to if they 762 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,720 Speaker 1: were there behind here. That's my issue with Zack Wilson 763 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: right um. His completion percentage when he's under pressure that 764 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: is unbelievably bad. He's been pressured forty two times as 765 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: fifty four yards with two interceptions. I will target Zach 766 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: Wilson to throw an interception anything better than mine if 767 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: you can give me anything better than taking it. If 768 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: it's one and a half minus one, so a little 769 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: bit of juice. All he has to do is throw 770 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: a pick. Now. The only problem with that is let 771 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: special teams. The Jets have been excellent. Let's say that 772 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: the Patriots, who, by the way, did you see their 773 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: punter was terrible on Monday, so now they brought in 774 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: new punters, special teams a little shaky. If the Jets 775 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: happened to take advantage and they're up, I don't know, 776 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: ten ten, ten three. I don't think we're gonna see 777 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: a lot of Zach Wilson throwing I think Sale thinks 778 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 1: his defense could. I don't know if you saw the 779 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,399 Speaker 1: stat I think it was from Football Focus that Matt 780 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: Jones has been the worst quarterback e p A against 781 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: the Blitz this year by a mile. Russell Wilson second. 782 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: And it's like, if the Jets can't get the lead somehow, 783 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna be throwing the ball a lot. No. No, 784 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: Robert Salo has made it very clear he does not 785 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: trust Sack Wilson. So Pro Football Focus grade for for 786 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson under pressure was twenty three. The only one 787 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: worse was Mac Jones at two point. Those are the 788 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: worst quarterbacks in the NFL against the pressure. It's really bad. Um. 789 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: Just take a step further. Average yards per attempt when 790 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,919 Speaker 1: under pressure is that Wilson is just dumping the ball 791 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 1: off one point seven yards per attempt under pressure. It's 792 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: just terrible, UM, Robert Sala, either he's not coaching him 793 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: up enough, or the floor is not helping him enough 794 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: and not giving enough three bees, which is what's really 795 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 1: important for growing quarterback, or they just don't trust him, 796 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: they don't think he's the guy. I'm not sure which 797 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: one's which, um, But for In terms of a prop 798 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: for that one, I'm on microL Carter over receptions pretty 799 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: much anywhere you can get it. He's going to be 800 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: the clear receiving back. Thing. Just and shout out to Jacksonville. 801 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: This is how you trade a player that you clearly 802 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: don't want. They got a six a conditional fifth for 803 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 1: James Robinson. The Giants just got a third for con 804 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: aias Tony, so that that does even make sense. James 805 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,479 Speaker 1: Robinson is the eighth worst running back in the NFL 806 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: according a Pro Football Focus two point yes, eighth worst 807 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 1: running back and with his elusive rating, Um, he's a 808 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: decent pass blocker. That's like his only redeeming quality. That's 809 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: so James Robinson does not make people miss. Well, that's 810 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: not good behind this Jets offensive line. No, the Jets 811 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,240 Speaker 1: offensive line, and so that's another thing. The Jets offensive 812 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: line is the seventh worst against the run block run blocking, 813 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: and Jacksonville is the eighth worst with run blocking. So 814 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: when you obviously those are gonna be the same. You 815 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: have Michael Carter who's ranked in the top half of 816 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 1: running backs, and they have James Robinson, who's ranked eighth worst. 817 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: You trade a fifth round pick form really didn't make sense. 818 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: Jackson was probably leaping up and down when they got 819 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: that trade off for panic. Trade shows me that they 820 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: don't trust Wilson um and that they aren't going to 821 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: plan just to run the ball off the middle NonStop. 822 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: I don't I don't really know. It really makes sense 823 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: to me um on that one. So I'll take Michael 824 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: Carter receiving props because he will be the past guy. 825 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: Have they shown the number yet? What is it? Four 826 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: and a half? I believe it's too and I believe 827 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 1: it's two and a half. But really, oh yeah, that's 828 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: the reserve for Camaro only. I mean, I just look 829 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: at Robinson. He's They're not go how many players We 830 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: saw McCaffrey get traded what Thursday before the game, and 831 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: they had him run like ten what fifteen snaps? There's 832 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: no way James Robinson's playing twenty snaps. No, I can't 833 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 1: imagine that unless he learns the playbook unbelievably quick. Yes, 834 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: so this is gonna be the car right right? UM. 835 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, Uh, did the Bears use running back? No? 836 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 1: They just use fields. Yeah, well they use clear clear 837 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 1: Herbert as well. In the past game he did have 838 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: that awesome touchdown that was a great throw by. It's 839 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 1: got to give him props. Let's so we got a 840 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: lot of NFL. I am curious on the m m 841 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: A um is it heavily stat Bay East gambling for 842 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 1: the cop for for combat sports or what are you 843 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: using to become a better gambler in that um so? 844 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: There are one of the companies I worked for in 845 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: the past, Katina owns best fight Outs dot Com. That's 846 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: a really really good one because it will show you 847 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: it breaks down every method of victory. And that's that's 848 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:17,800 Speaker 1: the name of the game. When you're betting m m A. 849 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: It's not just money lines. You're gonna want to know 850 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 1: method of victory, fight to go the distance. That's a 851 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 1: huge part of m m A betting. Um so, like 852 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 1: like this week you have Arnold Allen who was originally 853 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: a plus one thirty underdog, and it tells you and 854 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: they'll it'll tweet right when the line opens Arnold Allen's 855 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 1: plus one thirty and then you know, sharp money comes 856 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: in immediately on all Alan's now favorite. Um SO, that's 857 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: something like it'll tell you immediately when the lines when 858 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 1: the lines open, then you can bet it um. Same 859 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: thing with like Sean O'Malley. Right, seanamalley this past weekend 860 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: at UFC two eighty was plus three fifty on the 861 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: money line when he opened, and then he got bet 862 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,919 Speaker 1: down to plus one plus one nine d I believe 863 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: by fight time. So that's like a huge difference here 864 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: and implied probability and whatever, and however you score that 865 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: fight doesn't really matter because Sean O'Malley ended up winning 866 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: ashing is a plus three fifty dog if you've got 867 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: him at the right time. UM. Basically, my my best 868 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: advice to anyone betting m m A is do not 869 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: bet um. Try to bet earlier in the week, right 870 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 1: when the line's open um. And then usually method of 871 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 1: victories will come out on Thursday on like a FanDuel 872 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 1: or points bet or DraftKings. Usually method of victories come 873 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: out on Thursday. That's your big day for for M 874 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:25,359 Speaker 1: m A betting, So Thursday today that your method of victories. UM, 875 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 1: and don't wait until Saturday on those because the juice 876 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 1: gets crazy on the method of victory. Interesting now because 877 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 1: NFL apparently you know the usually the late move is 878 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: sometimes the best move right, you have the most information. 879 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 1: It's right before kickoff you can get down is a 880 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 1: lot of money. Um. But if you're saying it's the 881 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: opposite of m m ah huh, yeah, because the Jew 882 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: it's it's really about the juice for the method of 883 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 1: victory props because you can't bet under anything like in 884 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: the in the NFL, you can bet you know, under 885 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: his overs there there has to be enough. They're trying 886 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: to get action both ways. It's not really like that 887 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: in m m A because if you're trying to bet 888 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: Arnold Allen by knockout, there's that line is just gonna 889 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: move and there's no corresponding under or no no corresponding 890 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: opposite line. It's not really gonna move any other way. Um. 891 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: So that's like an important piece of it. Um. You know, 892 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: sometimes the bet chooses you. Like that's something that I 893 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: always say, like, sometimes you don't choose the bet, the 894 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: bet is going to choose you. It's the same thing, 895 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,760 Speaker 1: um in the NFL with Mac Jones this past Monday, 896 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 1: you know, Adam Schefter says on Monday Night on ESPN, Hey, 897 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 1: like Mac Jones is gonna play some It might be 898 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: Bailey's appy who knows, you know, bet the under on 899 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,919 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, Like, I didn't choose under. I had handicapped under. 900 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: I mean I had a lean, But sometimes the bets 901 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: gonna choose you. And and something that me at me 902 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: and some coworkers at the post talk about is you know, 903 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 1: when like Josh Jacobs was sick, um, you know, a 904 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: couple weeks ago, um, and he ended up taking his 905 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,240 Speaker 1: own private flight to the game. You know, Zamir White 906 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 1: was plus score a touchdown and Josh Jacobs was sick 907 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: getting flown to the game, UM when it wasn't wasn't 908 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 1: sure if he was gonna play. Zamir White was being 909 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 1: hung at plus hundred for the whole day, UM Draft Kings, 910 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 1: and I tweeted, right now, go go go like Zamir Way, 911 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 1: Zamir Way, Zamir White. And then he got that all 912 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 1: the way down to minus one ten and you know, 913 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs ended up playing. But the reality there is 914 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 1: it's more about the process and the value then because 915 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 1: eventually that's gonna you're gonna go the other way on that. 916 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 1: When you're beating the book by se on a bet, 917 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 1: that's when you that's everything that you need to know. 918 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: That's that's unbelievably significant. Um. And there are some people 919 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 1: that were tweeting me out, some crazy ones. Was like 920 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: Zamir White first touchdown of the day on Sunday two one, 921 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:40,839 Speaker 1: and then it was better and then that was bet 922 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,439 Speaker 1: all the way down to you know, ten to one. 923 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 1: By the way, did I did? I don't remember did 924 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 1: he do anything? So Zamir White didn't end up playing, 925 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:54,239 Speaker 1: But the process is what is definitely DraftKings knew that 926 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 1: they had made a mistake because they moved that line 927 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: and they moved it down to minus one ten from 928 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: plus twenty two hundred. Jacobs end up playing. But you 929 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: know that's a bet that chooses you. You take that 930 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: a hundred times that of a hundred for being the 931 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 1: beating the book by that much. Yeah, congratulations on that. 932 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,320 Speaker 1: CONGRATU your success.

I've 952 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 1: told you guys the story when I was one of 953 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 1: the bloggers back in the day sports blogs Gee's two 954 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: thousand five six seven six seven eight maybe, And you know, 955 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 1: it was like a tight knit community of a bunch 956 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,440 Speaker 1: of up and coming sports bloggers, and everybody started to 957 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,959 Speaker 1: kind of go their own way. A couple of people 958 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: started to pull away and separate themselves from the pack, 959 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of jealousy and weirdness and it's 960 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: just clicky losory nous, and I'm already sensing that in 961 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: the sports gambling community.

I'll quickly go through the games. Uh Denver, 983 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 1: Jacksonville in London. I have zero read here. I want 984 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: to bet Jacksonville. I think to the side Nathaniel Hackett, 985 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 1: if he loses, do they leave him in London? Just 986 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: from a matchup perspective, I think Jacksonville could have some 987 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 1: trouble with Denver. But Denver's beat up, and you guys 988 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,839 Speaker 1: heard me talk about going into the bye Denver's going 989 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 1: into a by next week. If they're gonna fire Hackett honestly, like, 990 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 1: this is kind of the perfect time. You lose in London, 991 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 1: you fallted two and six, it's over. You fire them 992 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:06,240 Speaker 1: during the bye week, you have one of the interim 993 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 1: one of the coaches take over and you start a 994 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 1: new Maybe you go on a fire sale. I mean, 995 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 1: they lose this game, is Bradley Chubb gonna get dealt? Like? 996 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:17,239 Speaker 1: I can't imagine it. They dealt Khalil was it Khalil Mack? No, 997 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,359 Speaker 1: it was not Khalil Mack. It was Von Miller. That's right. 998 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 1: Von Miller was opposite uh Chubb last year they dealt him, 999 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 1: and it'll be interesting. You know, you unload Bradley Chubb, 1000 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: It's like, is that an easy replacement? You get some picks. 1001 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't back Denver at all. For me, 1002 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: this is Jacksonville or pass. But I don't have a 1003 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: huge feel here either way. I do think there actually 1004 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 1: could be some scoring. Um so I would look at 1005 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: the over, but not convincingly so. UM Chicago Bears Dallas Cowboys. 1006 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,640 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna put the Cowboys in the contest. I 1007 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 1: talked about this a little with Eric. It just feels 1008 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 1: like a letdown spot for the Bears. I think the 1009 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 1: matchup dan Quinn will be ready. They faced running quarterback 1010 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 1: and Hurts and Daniel Jones. I think they'll be ready. 1011 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: I don't see how the Bears move the ball successfully. Again, 1012 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: it's a week to week league, right, don't just forget 1013 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: about what you saw last week? Right? The Bears? Are 1014 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: they the team we saw the first six weeks? Are 1015 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 1: they the team to beat the Patriots? You know, the 1016 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,279 Speaker 1: Cowboys have a pretty darn good body of work. That 1017 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,240 Speaker 1: defense is excellent. They did get a little lucky because 1018 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,799 Speaker 1: Jared Goff vomited all over himself last week. Let's not 1019 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 1: repeat it. A Dallas or passed for me on that one. 1020 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 1: I can't bet Saints Raiders. I want to take the Saints. 1021 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: I definitely want to. I think the Saints are the 1022 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 1: side here for sure. Problem is I'm not taking them 1023 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 1: with a lot of more, a lot of more Um 1024 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: not practicing and Michael Thomas still out and Landry They're 1025 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 1: just too beat up. I can see Taysom Hill running 1026 00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 1: all over these guys. I like the Saints here, but 1027 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 1: it's just so tough for me to bet my money 1028 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: or take them in the contest on a team where 1029 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 1: I know the secondary cannot contain Davante Adams like so again, 1030 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 1: another one probably gonna pass. I told you guys, um, 1031 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm on the Carolina Panthers in this one. I know 1032 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 1: that's a tough one to swallow. J you're really telling 1033 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 1: me p J Walker that's your guy, dude. I picked 1034 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: him up at one of my fantasy leagues. You know, 1035 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 1: I have my homes as quarterback, and I said, let 1036 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 1: me give p J Walker shot. Cluster injuries for the 1037 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: Falcons in the secondary, d J Moore could be in 1038 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,880 Speaker 1: play to have a big game, and the Carolina defense 1039 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:22,520 Speaker 1: is pretty good. Guys. This Atlanta run was nice. Six 1040 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: straight covers to start the season. They got absolutely obliterated 1041 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 1: by the Bengals. I know the Bengals look good. I 1042 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,440 Speaker 1: think I think Carolina. Carolina can certainly cover here. Remember 1043 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 1: the Falcons that big run was almost exclusively as underdogs 1044 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:38,360 Speaker 1: everywhere they went to think except Seattle. They were dogs. 1045 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 1: And now you have to not only win, but win 1046 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,719 Speaker 1: by four to school. Oh sorry, not two scores, but 1047 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 1: more than a field goal. I don't know that the 1048 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 1: Falcons could do that, So I think Carolina keeps this close. 1049 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 1: It feels like a field goal game either way. So 1050 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm on Carolina. Pittsburgh and the Eagles, I'm gonna pass 1051 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: on this one. It's just a Mike Tomlin factor that 1052 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 1: scares me. I know that they covered against Miami is 1053 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 1: big underdogs. Um they covered against Tampa as big underdogs. 1054 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 1: I know they got blasted by Buffalo. But Mike Tomlin 1055 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: in these spots where he's got to get his team 1056 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 1: all amped to play, nobody respects us. We're big underdogs. 1057 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: I think, kind of on principle, it's pittsburgher pass here. 1058 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 1: I do think the Eagles you know, coming on, I 1059 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 1: saw a stat Oh my gosh, this is incredible. And 1060 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 1: again though I wish I could just send everybody the 1061 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,239 Speaker 1: Fox packet. Um, it's great the Fox research back. I've 1062 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 1: had this undefeated teams off of a bye. I don't 1063 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,799 Speaker 1: know how far this goes back. Unfortunately, eighteen and one 1064 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: straight up, seventeen and two against the spread. Now, I'm 1065 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 1: sure there's some four no going into the bye, and 1066 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: there's probably some five and six, but those are kind 1067 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,319 Speaker 1: of impressive numbers. But again, we're talking about winning by 1068 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 1: double digits against your in state opponent, and all Pittsburgh 1069 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 1: does is cover when they shouldn't. I don't think they 1070 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: have the offense to keep up. I don't particularly like 1071 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett. I don't know why anybody would. I just 1072 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: I think the bed here probably go Eagles first half. 1073 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: They're a first half covering machine. UM. I think there's 1074 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: six and oh in the first half this year against 1075 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: the spread. Um. But ultimately not a contest play for me. 1076 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,320 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Detroit in the contest. I know, Jason, 1077 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 1: you glutton for punishment two weeks in a row. I 1078 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 1: think this front is gonna give Miami some problems. The 1079 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: tackles were an issue against Pittsburgh. To it looked awesome. 1080 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 1: If your first impression, oh two is back first quarter 1081 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 1: thirty nothing, they look great. They did like nothing the 1082 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 1: rest of the way, guys, nothing. Tackles still are an issue. Obviously, 1083 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:42,520 Speaker 1: the Detroit secondary is gonna get lit up like a 1084 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: Christmas tree by Wattle and Tyreek Hill. But I just 1085 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,800 Speaker 1: I think there could be some issues for the Miami defense. 1086 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,319 Speaker 1: Have you seen They're gonna be down four maybe five 1087 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 1: starters due to injury, um, safety's cornerback, linebacker, like, they 1088 00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: are really banged up defensively, and I don't know what 1089 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: we'll see the Detroit at home. They've been feisty. Um, 1090 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: It's it's a tough one. But at three and a half, 1091 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: I think for me, it's Detroit or nothing. Arizona I 1092 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 1: already talked about extensively. I'm on the Cardinals here uh 1093 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 1: to cover and on the money line Jets Patriots. I've 1094 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 1: spent way too much time talking about this game this 1095 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,920 Speaker 1: week on this podcast, on other podcasts I do radio shows. 1096 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: People call me on come talk gambling, um, and on 1097 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:29,239 Speaker 1: the Herd. I can't bet the Jets of fourth straight 1098 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,200 Speaker 1: week in a row. Guys, I can't do it. I 1099 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 1: really want to. I did it against Pittsburgh, Miami, Green 1100 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 1: Bay and last week against Denver been very profitable. I 1101 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:41,919 Speaker 1: had some guys send me a ticket that he did 1102 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 1: like a three thousand dollar and I don't endorse three 1103 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 1: thousand dollar teasers on the Jets and the under last 1104 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:52,200 Speaker 1: weekend it hit well done, sir um. This is I can't. 1105 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 1: I can't say go bet Zack Wilson against Bill Belichick here. 1106 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 1: I just can't do it, even at home. Getting to 1107 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: and the reason the reason it's gone up to two 1108 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:02,799 Speaker 1: and a half, Mac Jones got named the starter. This 1109 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: was like one after the Patriots got their doors blown 1110 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 1: off by the Bears. And now you've got a Jets 1111 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,720 Speaker 1: team that is plucky. But this will be the game 1112 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 1: that says a lot about Zack Wilson. Remember against Pittsburgh, 1113 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,720 Speaker 1: he had an incredible rally in the fourth quarter, two drives, 1114 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 1: some key fourth down conversion. Since that game, he hasn't 1115 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 1: really had to do anything, and he's played with the 1116 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 1: lead if the Jets can somehow snagg a lead and 1117 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: forced mac Jonas and mac Jones into some more mistakes 1118 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,799 Speaker 1: because he's been a mistake prone this year. I think 1119 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 1: the Jets have a shot. The problem is if the 1120 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,359 Speaker 1: Jets fall behind, I don't know where's the offense gonna 1121 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 1: come from. Offensive line is banged up, so I unfortunately 1122 00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 1: I can't say go fire on the Jets this week. 1123 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: I'll be rooting like hell for them on Sunday. I'll 1124 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: probably be a mess because if they get to six 1125 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:53,399 Speaker 1: and two, then I think it's like, okay, the trade 1126 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 1: uh trade deadlines coming up, we need to make another 1127 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 1: move for the offensive line. Let's see what we can do. 1128 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 1: Because at six and two in the A see especially 1129 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: if you see Denver go down, they're done. Season over 1130 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: didn't or Jackson, but one of the whoever loses that 1131 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: game's toast. And then you know there's a chance Jamaar 1132 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 1: Chase goes down. Now, the Bengals in trouble um Baltimore, 1133 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna They're gonna probably pick up a 1134 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 1: little hot streak here. I don't know what if the 1135 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: Lions beat the Dolphins like it's the league is so 1136 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,439 Speaker 1: crazy this year. I love it, especially with my Jets 1137 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 1: of five and two rooting for six and two. I 1138 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:30,040 Speaker 1: made a decision not not one. I feel great about that. 1139 00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be that. I have bet the Tennessee Titans 1140 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 1: um at two and two and a half. Sounds like 1141 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 1: Bryan Tannehill is going to be a go. But the 1142 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 1: concern with these guys who are like light practice, I'm 1143 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 1: gonna give it a go is this season maybe more 1144 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 1: than others. I've seen guys jump in there, try to 1145 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 1: play and then they're sitting down by halftime done. Did 1146 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:50,839 Speaker 1: you see the Thursday game Mark Andrews tried to go? 1147 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,719 Speaker 1: He was done? Gus Edwards like, I mean, these guys 1148 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:56,880 Speaker 1: are trying to force their way back. Amaras st Brown 1149 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,360 Speaker 1: for the Lions last week. It took one hit, a 1150 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 1: little stagger and they're like, no, we're pulling him. Like, 1151 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,760 Speaker 1: so what happens if Tannehill goes down early? Now Houston 1152 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,919 Speaker 1: has no pass rush? But is there a scenario where 1153 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:13,359 Speaker 1: Malik I've got money on Malik Willis, Like really? Now 1154 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 1: the key is Derrick Henry. He has absolutely run over Houston. 1155 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 1: I think the last three outings he's gone over two 1156 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: hundred yards. I watched Josh Jacobs because remember last week 1157 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 1: I talked about it was like kind of like Houston 1158 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 1: and seventh. They were covering for like fifty minutes deep 1159 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: end of the fourth quarter. That's a four point game. 1160 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 1: That was the right side. And then, of course, you know, 1161 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs goes bonkers and then there's a pick six. 1162 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:38,720 Speaker 1: But that's the thing. Josh Jacobs ran all over this team. 1163 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 1: The holes were massive. Now, Lovey Smith in the division 1164 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,640 Speaker 1: has pulled some upsets. He did beat Jacksonville. I don't 1165 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,120 Speaker 1: like Tennessee at all. If you followed me on social 1166 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: or this podcast or any of my other professional endeavors, 1167 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: you know I've been very sour on the Titans. I 1168 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 1: don't think this team is very good. I don't think 1169 00:57:55,600 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 1: they're particularly talented. Jeffrey Simon's their best defender, Simmons. Jeffrey Simmons, 1170 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Jeffrey Simmons their best defensive line in miss 1171 00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 1: practice the first couple of days this week. If he's 1172 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 1: out and Tannehill's down, I mean, his team is nothing special. 1173 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 1: So I'm probably gonna be on Tennessee. Well, I am 1174 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 1: on them betting, but in the contest, I'm leaning towards 1175 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 1: them as my fifth pick. Probably Tennessee we'll see a 1176 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:21,440 Speaker 1: lot can happen between now and Saturday around noon Pacific, 1177 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 1: when you gotta get the picks in Giant Seahawks reluctantly. 1178 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 1: I'm betting the Giants here getting three. It could be 1179 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 1: the end of the road for the Giants. I get 1180 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:37,640 Speaker 1: all that, but I'm I'm betting coaching here. Wink Martin Dale. Um, 1181 00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:39,240 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be able to dial up some 1182 00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 1: really fun stuff and getting Gino's head. No metcalf so 1183 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. I means Marquees good, wouldn't gonna catch 1184 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 1: a couple more touchdowns? You know, Tyler Lockett is very good. 1185 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 1: But I think the Giants can hang around. We've seen 1186 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 1: Seattle has has been run on that. It's not a 1187 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,439 Speaker 1: great run defense. Sa Kwan. Can you do it again? Um? 1188 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:59,520 Speaker 1: Giants heading into the Bys, this team might be exhausted 1189 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 1: and there's a chance and they're down twenty and nothing 1190 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 1: in the third quarter. You know, there's a lot of 1191 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: London trip now, a cross country like this is a 1192 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: tough spot. Go Giants. Washington, Indie probably a stay away 1193 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 1: from me. If anything, I kind of dig Indie with 1194 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,920 Speaker 1: the new quarterback, the new energy, you've got what is 1195 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,919 Speaker 1: it they call it, um, big backup energy, a big 1196 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 1: backup QB energy, because this is gonna be a different 1197 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: look for Washington. There's like no tape on Ellinger outside 1198 00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: of the preseason, which is irrelevant. Um, they're gonna, they're gonna, 1199 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 1: you know, Washington's gonna win the line of scrimmage because 1200 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,480 Speaker 1: the Colds. The old Colts offensive line right now ranked 1201 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 1: thirty second out of thirty two teams by Pro Football Focus. 1202 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:43,960 Speaker 1: So they're gonna get run over. And it's gonna be like, 1203 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 1: can Ellinger just make plays with his legs and pull 1204 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 1: a Tim Tebow act? Because that's what he did in Texas. 1205 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,240 Speaker 1: If you guys remember him, he was a fun quarterback 1206 00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 1: to root four guys, just always making place happen. He's 1207 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: running over linebackers, big dude. I think it could be 1208 00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 1: a fun one. I don't think it's gonna be a 1209 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: big play for me because you know, Washington is starting 1210 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 1: to catch a couple of breaks and I did lose 1211 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 1: with them, um in the opener against Jacksonville, and I 1212 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 1: remember the losses unfortunately, but I'm looking culture nothing. I'll 1213 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,200 Speaker 1: probably end up on the rams just because of as 1214 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 1: we talked about earlier, the forty nine injury report is brutal, 1215 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 1: and this is another team going into the bye I 1216 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: do wonder, Deebo Samuel, do you force him out there 1217 01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 1: when you've got bigger fish to fry later in the 1218 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 1: season and in the playoffs. So San Fran, you know 1219 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 1: they have dominated the Rams. Yes, you're gonna hear that 1220 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:35,960 Speaker 1: all the Shanahan owns Big Bay. Yes we know that. 1221 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 1: Is it worth forcing Debot Armstead? Some of these defenders 1222 01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: like given an extra give an extra week and play 1223 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 1: the big play the long game, go for the big picture. 1224 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:49,320 Speaker 1: So I think the Rams actually will will get the 1225 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 1: dub at so far, although it might be like crowd 1226 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 1: maybe sixty Niners fans and Sunday Night football, it's gonna 1227 01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 1: be Packers or nothing. For me. I can't make a 1228 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,800 Speaker 1: case for the Bills. I'm sorry, Packers first half, maybe 1229 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 1: Packers full game, and then you know we'll talk Monday 1230 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 1: Night football on Monday's podcast. But I did bet the 1231 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,959 Speaker 1: Browns on the Jamaar Chase News three and a half. 1232 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 1: It's down to three, so uh, you know, I think 1233 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 1: the Browns are definitely gonna be live for the outright 1234 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 1: win on Halloween Night. It's a long podcast. It is 1235 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: a long weekend. Stay safe out there in those Halloween streets. 1236 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 1: We'll talk to you Monday.
