Simon, I feel like I've been 224 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: trying harder than I ever have on this podcast. I've 225 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: been more focused. I've been researching more. I've been spending 226 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: more time thinking about what we're going to say. I 227 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: have so many notes in our script right now about 228 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: my favorite bets. 229 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 2: Let me scroll down. 230 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: Simon, that's like, yeah, I've been taking it easy these 231 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 4: last couple of years. 232 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 3: This year, I'm all in. 233 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 2: I didn't say. 234 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: I didn't say I've been taking it easy. I said 235 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: I've been working harder. I didn't know how much harder 236 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: I could work. I challenged myself and I said, I said, 237 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: you know what, I want to see how hard I 238 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: can go. I want to see if I can be 239 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: even better at doing what I do my first best bet. 240 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: I want to get Simon's reaction. I want to get raybound. 241 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: I want to get Brandon, Simon, you and I love 242 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: this one. Last year Trevor Lawrence to leave the league 243 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: in touchdown passes thirty to one. 244 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 2: Let me give you my reasoning. 245 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: Last year twenty five regular season touchdown passes, right, Sixteen 246 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: of those came in the latter half of the season, 247 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: four multi touchdown games in the latter half, plus that 248 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: epic comeback against the Chargers. Remember last year we talked 249 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: about this. He was missing receivers in red zone situations, 250 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: lacking touch, lacking accuracy. Improved as the year went on, 251 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: playing a division with terrible d allions not. 252 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: Going to get a lot of pressure. 253 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: Fourteen of their games played in places where you can 254 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: expect good weather. 255 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 2: Or in a dome. Thirty to one. 256 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: Any one of you can respond, Simon, I'll start with 257 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: you and then you can give me your best bet. 258 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: But first, how do you like my best bet? Trevor 259 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: Lawren's thirty to one the league in touchdown passes? 260 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 4: You know anything better than twenty five to one? I'm like, 261 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 4: let's do it. 262 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 3: Why not? 263 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 4: If you're going to do a future and lock your 264 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 4: money up for six months, at least it's got good 265 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 4: odds here, and there's a scenario. Right, we talked they're 266 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 4: one of the easiest divisions, Right, that's a big factor 267 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 4: when you're a factoring in that they're a division that 268 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 4: they will be able to move the ball, and then 269 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 4: you're adding Calvin Ridley's right, so it's your two in 270 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 4: an offense and you're getting a huge upgrade at the 271 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 4: why receiver position. 272 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 3: And even Travis eat the end. 273 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 4: I think the fact that you know, there was a 274 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 4: lot of hype about this kid Tank, the number two 275 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: running back. He hit a fumble inside the red zone 276 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 4: and now it might just be etn Show in the 277 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 4: red zone, which is a big upgrade because again they 278 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 4: can use in to catch the ball in the red zone. 279 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 4: So it's another benefit. I would say, you know, if 280 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 4: we're talking good odds, that's a good number, Chad. Anything 281 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 4: above thirty to one, I think is a good number 282 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 4: for Trevor to lead the league, just because we're ready 283 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 4: to talk about we're one of those guys where we 284 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 4: think he should keep excelling. So at that number, that's 285 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 4: a good price. 286 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 2: Brandon be a hater. 287 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 8: I am a bit of a hater on the Jaguars. 288 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 8: I'll explain why with my Houston Texans love a team 289 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 8: I'm all in on this year. I don't mind the bet, though. 290 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 8: I think with Jacksonville the reason I'm hesitating on them 291 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 8: is because of everything that's not named Trevor Lawrence. I 292 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 8: don't like the offensive line. I don't trust the defense. 293 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 8: I think that the defensive lines on the other teams 294 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 8: in division are actually a little better than maybe you're 295 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 8: giving credit. But if Jacksonville is good, Trevor Lawrence is 296 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 8: gonna be the reason why. And there certainly is a 297 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 8: path where Jacksonville, with a soft division off schedule, Trevor 298 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 8: Lawrence breakout suddenly their twelve thirteen wins. If that happened, 299 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 8: it's because Trevor Lawrence had another huge step forward, and 300 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 8: we've seen effectively this is basically a sophomore year, right 301 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 8: like Urban Meyer Goodbye. That year never happened. So to me, 302 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 8: the notes you had about improvement last year, that makes 303 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 8: sense because they're basically like, yeah, he was a rookie, 304 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 8: and rookies improved in the second half, and usually they 305 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 8: improve a lot more the next year. So I think 306 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 8: if we think of framing him that way, he looks 307 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 8: like the guy to kind of step into that Burrow 308 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 8: Allen Mix at the top of the AFC. I don't 309 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 8: mind playing the Jaguars high end outcome, so I think 310 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 8: taking a longer shot future is a good way to 311 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 8: do it. 312 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: Ray Bon, I'm going to give you so much love 313 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: for one of the bets you wrote about in Events 314 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: of the Season. I don't want that to influence whether 315 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: or not you should compliment me from making this choice. 316 00:14:59,320 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 317 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 6: No, I actually like Trevor Lawrence upside bets because it 318 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 6: kind of goes into what Brandon talked about. I think 319 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 6: there are a lot of shaky units on this Jaguars team. 320 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 6: The one that is not is the skill positions with Lawrence, 321 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 6: Ridley Kirk, Zay Jones, Evan Ingram and etn And so 322 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 6: I think they're gonna be in a lot of shootouts, 323 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 6: and that's what's gonna get you to allege leading passing touchdowns. 324 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 6: And I think he double what He doubles his passing 325 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 6: touchdowns from year one to year two, so you know, 326 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 6: there's certainly the possibility in year three that he does 327 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 6: he takes another step forward. 328 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 5: And I think this team's gonna be a lot of shooters. 329 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 6: The only tough part of it is they do have 330 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 6: four games against the Texans and the Coast and then 331 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 6: you know, another two against the Titans. 332 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 5: So like, in these division games. 333 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 6: Are they gonna be low scoring or are the Jaguars 334 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 6: gonna be forced to put up some points? 335 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 5: That's the only thing that might hold him back. 336 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 6: But outside of that, I mean, that's it's actually the 337 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 6: perfect environment for for a guy to lead the weekend. 338 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: Double, by the way, So that's kind of great for 339 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: this year. That's what I mean. I think we're gonna 340 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 2: have to get to and maybe what. 341 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, I need that kind of all right, Simon, 342 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: give me one of your best bets. 343 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's gonna go against what these are going 344 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 4: to talk about later maybe a little bit, but I'm 345 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 4: all in on the Saints Dad divisional odds. To me, 346 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 4: it's it's the best number of all the teams where 347 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 4: they're in a division where it's all these young teams 348 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 4: that are just kind of thrown together at this point 349 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 4: right there are a lot of inexperienced quarterbacks and you 350 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 4: have a Derek Carr coming off his worst season as 351 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 4: a pro in a new offense with a ton of 352 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 4: new toys, and I think we had. I don't know 353 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 4: when we had the luck rankings, but it might have 354 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 4: been two weeks ago. They talked about the Saints were 355 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 4: the top three unluckiest team in all football last season, 356 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 4: and that's another reason why we like them just to 357 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 4: be more lucky this upcoming season. 358 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 3: Where they talked about that that. 359 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 4: Projects out where easy schedule, veteran quarterback and they should 360 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 4: have good luck on their side. 361 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 3: Were last year they had bad injury luck. 362 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 4: I mean they had a couple of games where you 363 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 4: know they're starting a tight end at quarterback and Jamis Winston. 364 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 3: It was just a real mix mash. 365 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 4: Of players last year where I think Derek Carr, we 366 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 4: don't need him be top ten, right if he comes in, 367 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 4: he's top fifteen, and Michael Thomas can get back to 368 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 4: what he was and Kamara comes back after week three. 369 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 4: I mean, come on, that's such a high powered team. 370 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 4: So there's not many teams I bet really Chalky on 371 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 4: the heavy and at this point my biggest bet division 372 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 4: Odswiser of the Saints. 373 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: All Right, I want to hold off on Raybon and 374 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: Brandon's response to that, because I know we're going to 375 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: do a lot of Falcons talk and one of my bet. 376 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: One of my favorite bets I stole from Raybon is 377 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: also Falcons focus. So there's going to be good somehow. 378 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 3: We can how much NFC South we can talk? 379 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, I don't know how we're going to how 380 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: this ended up being a Falcon in the NFC South podcast, 381 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: But there's gonna be a lot of conversation about that. 382 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: And I throw another one out here and a couple 383 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: other ones. 384 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: Jalen Carter defensive Rookie of the Year seven to one, 385 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: bet three six five great odds. He's blowing up Camp Simon. 386 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: I think you agree with me on that, Brandon. 387 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 3: I like. 388 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: You may have talked about that on the podcast. I 389 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: haven't heard it yet. But here's another one. 390 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 2: Of my big bets. 391 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: Bill's Niners to reach the Super Bowl. I think it's 392 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: about thirty something to one, maybe thirty five to one. 393 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: Evan Abrams, our crack researcher, has a stat nine of 394 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 1: the past ten Super Bowl winners started the season at 395 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: least at less than twelve to one. So I went 396 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: through all the matchups and I decided the Niners defense 397 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: reigning Defensive Player of the Year, top three defensive line, 398 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 1: a brilliant coach. 399 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 2: Let's assume Brock Purty is better. 400 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: Great skill position players, positionless football, Josh Allen, you removed 401 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: from day ball, more comfortable, elbow is healed, defensive line improved. 402 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: Bill's Niners. That's my matchup in the Super Bowl. Longish odds. 403 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: Respond Simon. 404 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be all anti forty nine Ers all season, Chad. 405 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 3: It's just an easy position to take of. This is 406 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: how football does it, right. 407 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 4: It's this team that last year they got close, They 408 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 4: were so close, right, They brought in a rookie. He 409 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 4: won eighth straight games. Now they've turned around to turn 410 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 4: the keys to a Ferrari over to this seventh round rookie. 411 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 4: That a whole offseason. All these defensive coordinators, I mean, 412 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 4: I'm talking about the geniuses of football had now film 413 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 4: on this kid to develop against him. It's I got 414 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 4: a bad feeling about this forty nine Ers team, and 415 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 4: the fact that Nick Bosa still isn't in camp just 416 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 4: adds to I mean, me and you already love Pittsburgh 417 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 4: Week one, I mean, is that not a gift? Pittsburgh 418 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 4: plus three against Brock Purdy coming in with all this drama, 419 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 4: how can that not have been the weirdest QB room 420 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 4: this whole summer, and you know, to me, I can't 421 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 4: believe they're doing it. The money makes sense, right when 422 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 4: you look at the money, the fact they're paying this 423 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 4: kid eight hundred k nine hundred k over the next 424 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 4: like a couple of seasons. It's a smart move if 425 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 4: he does work out to what Shanahan's looking for. Shanaan's 426 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 4: looking for this kid to be another Jimmy garoppolo. He's 427 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 4: never had another Jimmy, right, We've seen it. The only 428 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 4: time he's had success is with Jimmy as I head coach. 429 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 4: So to me, I'll go Cairor to it. Of they're 430 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 4: at good numbers to fade them to miss the playoffs. 431 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 4: They're at a good number to take either the Seahawks 432 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 4: or the Rams in this division, and they have a 433 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 4: nice win total taken underwhere they might figure it out 434 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 4: right with Brock, But it might be a little too 435 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 4: late because I just think it's gonna be one of 436 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 4: those things where last year was nice because he wasn't thinking. 437 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 4: He'll be thinking this year it's gonna be a lot 438 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 4: different than it was last week. He just stepped into 439 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 4: that offense. So yeah, for me, this is what pros do. 440 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 4: We're the negative news guys where everyone's projecting forty nine 441 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 4: ers number two team and the NFC they're the best. 442 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 4: They're gonna make a super Bowl, and I'm telling you 443 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 4: to bet them than miss the playoffs. 444 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 3: Chat. It's not fun, but this is this is how 445 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 3: we do it. 446 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 6: This is funny because I agree with Simon, but for 447 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 6: like completely different reasons. So I think that this team 448 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 6: is more fragile than it's been. You got, you know, 449 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 6: the whole the interior offensive line is pretty unestablished. You know, 450 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 6: you got a new right tackle who's had five pro starts. 451 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 6: Trent Williams is thirty five, Bosa is not in camp. 452 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 6: You got a new defensive coordinator. Your cornerback depth is shaky, 453 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 6: like all those things I think are gonna like. Party 454 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 6: to me, actually is better than Jimmy G. Because he 455 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 6: could do everything that Jimmy G could do, except like 456 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 6: when Jimmy G's first read isn't immediately open, he does 457 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 6: this weird hitch and then he still just throws it 458 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 6: and it's like this tight window throwing. All forty nine 459 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 6: er fans just want to pull their hair out, whereas 460 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 6: Party can actually like buy an extra second or two 461 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 6: and like, you know, move around and make more things 462 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 6: happen off schedule. So I think that party is not 463 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 6: gonna be the but like, look at this team. They 464 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 6: get hurt every year and here's the here's the kicker. 465 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 6: And this is why I ultimately do agree with Simon. 466 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 6: Six years Kyle Shanahan has been a coach out of 467 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 6: San Francisco forty nine ers as much success as they've had, 468 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 6: what is it, two conference championships, another Super Bowl appearance? Uh, 469 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 6: you know, two appearances. I mean in a conference championship. 470 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 6: They've never gone over their win total in back to 471 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 6: back seasons. They've never won the division in back to 472 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 6: back seasons. Like this team just always finds a way 473 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 6: to like revert back to the mean. I think Dallas 474 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 6: is very very close to the forty nine ers to 475 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 6: where I'm not even putting them like, oh, they're top 476 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 6: two definitely, Like I think, you know, a few weeks 477 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 6: into the season, we could be, oh, the cowboys are 478 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 6: cowboys in the Eagles, not the forty nine ers in 479 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 6: the Eagles. 480 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: All Right, So I'm gonna take that back and I'll 481 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: talk about my next best bet when we talk about 482 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons, Simon, give me one more best bet 483 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: before we start peppering Brandon and raybound. 484 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 4: So this is a new one for me, and I 485 00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 4: can't say the name of the book, but it's the 486 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 4: only book that has Pittsburgh sixty to one super Bowl 487 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 4: futures and it's about Kenny taking that in year two. 488 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 3: Step we talk all the time chat. 489 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 4: I took a lot of heat when I got back 490 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 4: here to Jersey from a lot of pros because I'm 491 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 4: willing to give the benefit of doubt to a lot 492 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 4: of these quarterbacks taking that next step. 493 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: I was giving no love to Kenny. 494 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 4: And you know, I don't take too much from preseason 495 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 4: football because teams are just running shell defenses, right They're 496 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 4: running Cover two or they're running his zone, and that's 497 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 4: really it. They're not really throwing anything at you. But 498 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 4: what I wanted to see was Kenny was put the 499 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 4: ball down twenty yards down the field and he did 500 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 4: it multiple times, and only was he doing it, he 501 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 4: was looking for their best receiver and picking. So you know, 502 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 4: it's it's one of those where I'm just playing a 503 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 4: number at bet three to sixty five right now. I 504 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 4: believe it's forty to one Pittsburgh. So that's all I'm saying. 505 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 4: Shop around. You can get way better odds right now 506 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 4: on this team at this book. That again go to 507 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 4: the action app I put it in there at the 508 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 4: Exact book. That's a great number to take on a 509 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh team that I love teams that playing really hard 510 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 4: divisions because that means when they get through it, if 511 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 4: they get to the wild card they get they win 512 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 4: the division. They've already been through it. They've been playing 513 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 4: playoff football since December. That's what I feel like we 514 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 4: have in that AFC North. Right every team is just 515 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 4: really good, so you know they got all the weapons 516 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 4: right offensively, the biggest question to meet is their offensive line. 517 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 4: I do think it's looked better this preseason. So yeah, 518 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 4: sixty to one Pittsburgh, Chad's that's my favorite bet right 519 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 4: now for long shot super Bowl. 520 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: Look, we believe, we believe the AFC North by far 521 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: best division of football right, only division where every team 522 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: is over eight for their season win total. Great offensive 523 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: line in the Ravens and the Browns, as chronicled by Brandon, 524 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: great defensive lines in the Browns and the Steelers, like 525 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: this is a team where top to bottom rosters are loaded. 526 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into. 527 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 2: It with our guests. 528 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: It's time to turn the attention away from us. Simon Brandon, 529 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: you mentioned your love of the Texans. Would you like 530 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: to make them potentially the first, the very first best 531 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: bet you're going to talk about on the Favorites podcast, 532 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: home of a massive contest. 533 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 2: Is this is the one that you want to weigh 534 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:12,679 Speaker 2: out with people. 535 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 8: This is not just the one. I'm gonna give you 536 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 8: like five Texans best here. So let me start imaking 537 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 8: the case for this team. I love the Houston Texans. 538 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 8: This year they added a lot of floor raizers on 539 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 8: the team, and I just like they They added floor 540 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 8: razers to a team that literally was not relevant to 541 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 8: the football conversation for the last few years. Now they're 542 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 8: bringing in Will Anderson, best defender in the draft, Derek Stingly. 543 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 8: Really they get him back because he missed half the season. 544 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 8: He has shut down corner possibility. Just they brought in 545 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 8: a lot of veterans Shack Mason on the line. Nobody 546 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 8: cares but that that improves the guard position, That improves 547 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 8: in tier of the line. That line is young, it's 548 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 8: improving a lot. For a long time, that offensive line 549 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 8: has been horrible and their run game has been terrible. 550 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 8: Bobby Slowik is a new offensive coordinator. I think he's 551 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 8: a name we're going to start hearing a lot of 552 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 8: this year from a lot of like the the nerd conversations, 553 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 8: Bobby Slowik is gonna be the guy because he's from 554 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 8: the cal Shanahan Tree comes with Demiko Ryans. So you 555 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 8: got Demiko doing what he did in San Francisco on 556 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 8: defense with all these great pass rushers, great star corner 557 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 8: and then you have Bobby Slowick reinvigorating the run game. 558 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 8: I think this year getting that young offensive line going. 559 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 8: The defense added some names. That defense actually last year 560 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 8: second half of the season, they were top ten in DVOA. 561 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 8: They were second against the pass. So now you add 562 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 8: Stingley back, you had Will Anderson, you had Demiko. I 563 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 8: think that this is the best division or best defense 564 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 8: in the division. I think it's the best offensive line 565 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 8: in the division. They were number two in special teams 566 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 8: last year. Their coach, Frank Ross, usually has them near 567 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 8: the top there. If you have the best O line, 568 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 8: the best defense, the best special teams, that's the stuff 569 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 8: nobody cares and pay attention to and that's why I 570 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 8: think Houston is way overlooked and the best team in 571 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 8: the division. They're my outright favorite in the division. So 572 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 8: here's my bet. They are my pick to be this 573 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 8: year's worst two first division winner. You can get that 574 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 8: as far as high as eleven to one at some books. 575 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 8: We've had a worse to first team eighteen of the 576 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 8: last twenty years. So I actually grabbed last year at 577 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 8: Jacksonville in this division eight to one. They were the winner. 578 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 8: But that's you know, this is the not for long league. 579 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 8: So we talked about Jacksonville earlier. If you look like 580 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 8: the way I kind of rank rosters and everything I 581 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 8: have my matrix, quarterback is the one spot that Jacksonville 582 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 8: has this real advantage at Houston has lots of just 583 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 8: like solid above averages now where Jacksonville has some deficiencies elsewhere. 584 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 8: I'm not highing the Colts, especially Anthony Richardson. I think 585 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 8: he's going to take some time the Titans have. We 586 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 8: talked about the offensive line rankings. Tennessee is dead last 587 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 8: on every ranking that I looked at for offensive lines, 588 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 8: and I have a hard time believing in that team, 589 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 8: so I love eleven to one worse to first. Houston's 590 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 8: my outright favorite at bet three six five. If you 591 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 8: want to get cute, you can get a fourteen to 592 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 8: one on Houston first, Jacksonville second, because I don't really 593 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 8: think Jacksonville can slide too far out of us. So 594 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 8: if you want to do that, if they do win 595 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 8: the division, I'm talking nine to ten wins here. Dimiko 596 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 8: Ryans Coach of the Year, I think is in play 597 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 8: twenty five to one. That's one of my favorite coach 598 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 8: of the year bets. And then my absolute favorite bet 599 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 8: on Houston, and this is literally my favorite bet of 600 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 8: the entire preseason circuit is the bet that you already 601 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 8: bet against. 602 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 3: Chad. 603 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 8: Give me my guy Anderson, Will Anderson to win Defensive 604 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 8: Rookie of the Year at five to one, And thank 605 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 8: you Jalen Carter for existing, because I think the Jalen 606 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 8: Carter hype is buying us easy odds on Will Anderson. 607 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 8: Two defensive tackle winners the last twenty eight years two 608 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 8: and twenty eight. We want edge rushers, we want sacks. 609 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 8: We want guys out on the edge making plays, getting 610 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 8: the flash plays. I don't know if Jalen Carter is 611 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 8: gonna be on the field enough and get enough you 612 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 8: know the flashy stats at the end. He's gonna finish 613 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 8: the year with like twenty five tackles and four sacks, 614 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 8: and he's gonna make a big difference for a really 615 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 8: good team. But we're gonna count of voters to notice that. 616 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 8: Voters will notice Will Anderson like plowing through guys like 617 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 8: he has in the preseason and blowing up plays. Here's 618 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 8: the stats on defense Rookie of the Year. Nineteen out 619 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 8: of the last twenty three were top fifteen picks. Now, 620 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 8: to be fair, Jalen Carter's top fifteen to two, so 621 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 8: he fits the criteria you want a favorite. Seven of 622 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 8: the last eleven were plus nine hundred or shorter. That's 623 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 8: just our two guys, Jalen and Anderson. That's the only two. 624 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 8: Seven or more sacks for six of the last nine guys. 625 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 8: And here's the one stat I found six winners in 626 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 8: a row at this Rookie of the year. Six was 627 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 8: in a row, joined a defense bottom six in points 628 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 8: per game, and jumped into the top ten of the 629 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 8: year that they joined. That was Sauce Gardner last year 630 00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 8: from dead last to fourth. Here's the sixth this year Bears, Vikings, Lions, 631 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 8: Terrible Division, Cardinals, Colts, and Houston Texans. I think they 632 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 8: jumped to top ten points per game allowed and the 633 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 8: defense makes a leap to make the playoffs. Give me 634 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 8: the eleven to one playoffs. Give me the five to one. 635 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 8: Will Anderson as in Will Anderson to bet the Texans again, 636 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 8: Yes you will. 637 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: Oh wow, you've been working on that and that was 638 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: that was nice? 639 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, Raybon, Damn bro, I like where did you 640 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 6: get that shit? 641 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 5: You was smoking on it? Like I need some of 642 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 5: that shit that Like, damn, you know. 643 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: What's interesting about this? He went through this whole this 644 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: this litany of information. Oh, by the way, they're starting 645 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback. 646 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 5: All right, so let's let's start here. And first of all, 647 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 5: let me say this. 648 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 6: I when I first started looking into the Texans this year, 649 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 6: I was like, everybody's gonna think they're tanking. They're not 650 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 6: tanking because they traded their pick to Arizona. So yes, 651 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 6: this is going to be a different team. But there's 652 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 6: a big step from them, you know, going over their 653 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 6: win total maybe to winning the division. 654 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 5: I don't think they're there yet. 655 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 6: Now, if you look at teams over since since the 656 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 6: NFL went to thirty two teams in two thousand and two, 657 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 6: we've had thirty one instances when a team drafts a 658 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 6: rookie quarterback top ten and then that team goes and 659 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 6: then that quarterback excuse me, goes and starts eight or 660 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 6: more games. So essentially a situation like we expect from Richardson, 661 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 6: like we expect from Stroud, Bryce Young, those teams are 662 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 6: going over their win total about thirty seven percent of 663 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 6: the time over the past decade. 664 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 5: It's about twenty six percent of the time. 665 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 6: So like that's just first of all, Now, the Texans, 666 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 6: I think they have a lot of decent players now, 667 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 6: but they don't really have. 668 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 5: That many needle movers at all. 669 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 6: Like Laramie Tunsseel's great Shack Mason had his worst season 670 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 6: since his rookie year. 671 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 5: He's like thirty something. Jimmy war Is like thirty two. Know, 672 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 5: like they got it. 673 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 6: They got a lot of guys that like look good 674 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 6: on paper, but their receivers they might not have one 675 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 6: good receiver. If my guy Tank Dell doesn't get back 676 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 6: on the field, you know, Dalton Shoultz and he's good 677 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 6: in Dallas. Noah Brown, no Robert Woods, washed, Nico Collins 678 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 6: kind of stiff, you know, like this team. And then 679 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 6: Howard's hurt, the centers hurt, so the old line is 680 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 6: not really gonna be quite as good as you think 681 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 6: it is. But more importantly, let's just talk about the 682 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 6: team that I think is better than this Texan team, 683 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 6: and that's the As, the Tennessee Titans. I can't believe 684 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 6: you said the Texas. I mean, yeah, the Texas have 685 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 6: the best defense in the division. I think the Titans 686 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 6: have the best defense in the division easier. I think 687 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 6: Jeffrey Simmons is better than every single player. 688 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 5: On the Texas defense. And then you look at that front. 689 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 6: You got Dinko Artry, you got tart you got al Shire, 690 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 6: you got arden Key, you got Buyer, one of the 691 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 6: best safeties in the game. Uh Like, it's just like 692 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 6: there's just too many players on his front. It's just 693 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 6: you know what happened with the Titans last year. They 694 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 6: missed the third most games, They lost the third most 695 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 6: games to injury. 696 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 5: They were seven and three. This Tatan team that everyone 697 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 5: thinks is. 698 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 6: Terrible now because they went seven and ten they were 699 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 6: seven and three, seven and three, and then they go 700 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 6: on a seven game losing street to close out the season. 701 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 6: Four of those games one score games. 702 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 5: One of those losses a. 703 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 6: Game where Malik Willis lost to the Texans thrown under 704 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 6: one hundred yards. 705 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 5: Another one of those losses the playing. 706 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 6: Game where they were up with under three minutes to 707 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 6: go until Josh Dobbs, who they signed up the street 708 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 6: to play for Willis, got fumble sixth. The other four years, 709 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 6: Rabel over his win total vrabel winning record as a underdog. 710 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 5: Straight up, this is the. 711 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 6: Same Titan team we've always seen. They just had one 712 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 6: bad stretch, one bad two months, and now everyone thinks 713 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 6: that they're like the second or third best team in 714 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 6: the division. This Titan team still has the best defense, 715 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 6: Ryan Tannehill's seven eight yards per tentp last year, Derrick 716 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 6: Henry right on his career average yards per touch, DeAndre Hopkins, 717 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 6: best wide receivers they've had since aj Brown, Chigakonko, one 718 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 6: of the most explosive young tight ends. Year two lead 719 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 6: Traylon Burks when he gets back year two leap and 720 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 6: it's gonna be a lot easier because you got Hopkins there, 721 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 6: and Dillard struggled his rookie. 722 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 5: Year at left tackle. I'll give you that. 723 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 6: Since then, his last two years, he's played two hundred 724 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 6: and fifteen pass block snaps, giving up one sack. So 725 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 6: I think I don't think this Titans O line is 726 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 6: gonna be like piss poor last in the league. 727 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be meh. 728 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 6: But there's no real, uh other team in this division 729 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 6: that is gonna have a better offense even with that, 730 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 6: Like I don't think Houston's gonna have a better offense 731 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 6: with a rookie quarterback throwing a shit receivers, uh, just 732 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 6: because Larry Tunzel was there. 733 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 5: Like Larry Tunzel was great. 734 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 6: But at the end of the day, this Titan team 735 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 6: is gonna be able to play action. They're gonna be 736 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 6: able to just ram Henry down people's brokes. And again, 737 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 6: I think people are sleeping on this defensive front, which 738 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 6: is not just one the best of it. It's not 739 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 6: just the best in the division. This defensive front is 740 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 6: one of the best defensive front in all of football, 741 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 6: like player for player, So to me. 742 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 5: This is easy Titans. 743 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 8: Bet. 744 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 6: I think the Jaguars are still the biggest threat to 745 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 6: the Titans, not the Texans, but the Jaguars. They have 746 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 6: good players at the skill positions and shakiness everywhere else, 747 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 6: kind of like you said, Brandon. So for me, I'm 748 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 6: just going right back to expecting the Titans to do 749 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,439 Speaker 6: what they've done every other. 750 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 5: Year, which is exceed expectations. And oh and they got 751 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 5: a kicker. 752 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 6: Now, they got Nick Folk from New England, so their 753 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 6: kicker situations solved. So I mean, you know, I just 754 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 6: can't find a reason to fade the Titans. I think 755 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 6: the win total is like two wins too low, especially 756 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 6: for this weak division, and I think that people are 757 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 6: just it's just all it's just it's just a bunch 758 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 6: of bad luck and people are sleeping and they're gonna 759 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 6: bounce back. And by the way, Jacksonville, you know, because 760 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 6: again I think Jacksonville is the biggest threat. They had 761 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 6: the second best injury luck. Tennessee has the third worst. 762 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 6: So I think that's just clouding people's perceptions. Like a 763 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 6: couple of months, a month and a half of bad 764 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 6: football with Malik Willis and everyone hurt is not what 765 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 6: the Titans are. 766 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 2: Simon. 767 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: You and I love the Titans. We feel like they're 768 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: undervalued everywhere. Do you want to give the one reason 769 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,479 Speaker 1: why we're afraid of making a Titans bet. 770 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 4: We're almost at that point now we can do it 771 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 4: where I don't think Tannel will be traded, right. That 772 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 4: was just the fear going into the season that you 773 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 4: know they use a lot of drag stock on these 774 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 4: two different quarterbacks and it's kind of the same thing 775 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 4: you just saw Trey Lance. 776 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 3: It's like they gotta get that guy in the room, right, they. 777 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 4: Don't want any issues, and apparently he's been nothing but good. 778 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 4: Of these these young quarterbacks, like there's no drama in 779 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 4: the locker room. It does feel like it's a one 780 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 4: last who robed for this team. And yeah, to me, 781 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 4: they're they're the best value, right. We love buying low 782 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 4: on teams. Last year, the Jaguars is like an easy 783 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 4: bet for this division, like the Titans feel like an 784 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 4: easy bet. And I'll just say the Rookie of the 785 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 4: Year bet, My only knock would be Jalen Carter is 786 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 4: going to be in more primetime games. And we know 787 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 4: how simple these NFL voters are, where if he makes 788 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 4: the right play in a couple of big games and 789 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,439 Speaker 4: it's on national television, and even if he has less 790 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 4: sacks or touch it, you know, makes big plays or 791 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 4: whatever it is. I still think if he makes enough 792 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 4: big plays in national television, he'll get a bump over 793 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 4: a guy that you know, we don't think they're gonna 794 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 4: win their vision, right, Brandon's right, like he's one of me, 795 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 4: Like where I love taking these long shots of like 796 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 4: I think that Houston's the play next year, right, it 797 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 4: feels like a year early on them this year where 798 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,959 Speaker 4: next year is the play, right that they no longer 799 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 4: have a rookie head coach, no longer a rookie quarterback. 800 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 4: Next year will be the move for me on Houston, 801 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 4: where this year I'm with Chris. It's just like I 802 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 4: have to take Tennessee like Verabel, every year's prove it 803 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 4: to us, and I can't just fade him after one 804 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 4: down year. So it would be really hard to talk 805 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 4: to me off Tennessee. I just feel like that that's 806 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 4: the only choice we have to make in this division. 807 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: Chad coaches, We absolutely hate betting against yeah, especially especially 808 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 1: when they are. 809 00:37:59,040 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 2: Underdogs. 810 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin, John Harbaugh, Bill Belichick, Mike Frable hate it. 811 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 1: The guy is a proven winner. He's so much smarter 812 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: as a football coach. Then he gets credit for I 813 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: want us to transition now to a team and a 814 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: bet that at least Brandon and Raybon can agree on, 815 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: so there doesn't have to be any violence like there 816 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: was last time. Brandon, we're in an Atlanta Falcons podcast. 817 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 2: Explain what you're gonna tell people. 818 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I love the Falcons this year a lot of 819 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 8: the same reasons that I made the case for the Texans. 820 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 8: They just added a lot of floor raizers, especially on defense. 821 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 8: Jesse Bates coming in, Kalays Campbell, Onyamada, bud Dupree. This 822 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 8: was a truly awful defense last year, and I don't 823 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 8: think they're gonna be good. I'm not gonna say that 824 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 8: they're gonna be possible top ten. I do think the 825 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 8: Texans will the Falcons just getting the average. Just be 826 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 8: like Raven Side, just be Matt. Can you just like 827 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 8: be Matt and not absolutely awful? I think they can't. 828 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 8: I like the new defensive coordinator, Ryan Nielsen. I think 829 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 8: he'll help on offense. The line is really good. Top ten. 830 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 8: I think I have them seventh in my ratings. Then 831 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 8: you got Bijon Robinson, the rookie running back Drake London 832 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 8: Kyle Pitts. Like in the nineties we had the Triplets 833 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 8: in Dallas, right, like these are the triplets these who 834 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 8: else has a running back, a tight end and a 835 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 8: receiver with that level of skill? Top ten picks all 836 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 8: three of these guys. So I think we're overlooking this 837 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,399 Speaker 8: offense a little bit because it's unconventional. They're the run 838 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 8: heaviest team. But part of the reason I don't like 839 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 8: all the stuff you guys said about the Titans that 840 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 8: quite believe as much is because of the guy leading 841 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 8: this team, Arthur Smith, who is not the Titans anymore. 842 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 8: I know it wasn't last year, but I think that 843 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 8: the injuries and all that kind of clouded the drop 844 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 8: off on offense, the drop off in Tannehill's play, some 845 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 8: of the advanced metrics. Tannehill became this elite, really great 846 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 8: quarterback for two years, which two the Arthur Smith years. 847 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 8: Falcons have a real quarterback now aka not Marcus Mariota Simon. 848 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 8: I know you don't want him any part of your 849 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 8: Philadelphia Eagles this year coming off the bench there, he 850 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 8: looks terrible. I think just getting Dezen Rider to be fine. 851 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 8: Can you just be fine and again be meh? Can 852 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 8: you be meth and come in and hand the ball off? 853 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 8: They had like six hundred carries last year. Arthur Smith 854 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 8: in Tennessee had a top six DEVO offense his two 855 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 8: years leading the offense. This team, with no quarterback last 856 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 8: year in Atlanta finished thirteenth. They are my number eight 857 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 8: offense going into the new season. Even though they're weird, 858 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter. It gets the job done. And I 859 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 8: don't believe in the Saints. They're the oldest team I 860 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 8: believe in the league, and I just feel like that's 861 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 8: a team I don't believe in. Dennis Allen. I think 862 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 8: they'll be in the mix. I think they'll be a 863 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 8: good team, But I like the Falcons a little bit more. Again, 864 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 8: to me, they're my favorite in that division. So similar 865 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 8: bets here worse the first division. Atlanta is my other 866 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 8: pick here, much shorter odds. It's plus two to twenty 867 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 8: on that one. Arthur Smith Coach of the Year is 868 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 8: fourteen to one. I'm playing both of those. You know, 869 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 8: get to get a couple of bites of the apples. 870 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 8: Sometimes at bet three six five, you can bet Atlanta. 871 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 8: This is gonna sound crazy, but it's another one of 872 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 8: these long shots Atlanta. For me, I agree with what 873 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 8: y'all said about the forty nine ers. I'm fading them 874 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 8: this year. If I'm out on the Niners and all 875 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 8: I have left in the NFC, then is one team 876 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 8: that's the one seed, then the path is open. If 877 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 8: the Falcons are really good to be the two seed, 878 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 8: and if the Falcons are the two seed, give me 879 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 8: a ten to one conference finals appearance from the Atlanta Falcons. 880 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 8: If you're a two or three seed, top two seed, 881 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 8: you win a home game or two, you're in the 882 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,879 Speaker 8: conference finals. They're gonna lose real bad when you get there. 883 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 8: Like this is not don't buy a super Bowl to 884 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 8: get no thank you. I don't want that. But I 885 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 8: believe in the Falcons. And then Chad our guy, your guy, 886 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 8: Ray Baons Guy, Bijean Robinson, Offensive Rookie of the Year 887 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 8: three to one. I took that plus four fifty on 888 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 8: Draft night. I still like it three to one. Fifteen 889 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 8: of the last nineteen rookie of the years on offense, 890 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 8: we're top twelve picks. You pretty much need a top 891 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 8: ten Fantasy guy if you're gonna pick a rookie of 892 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 8: the year. He's going what like fifth or six and 893 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 8: most drafts, so obviously we expect him to do that. 894 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 8: It's a soft schedule for this team. I think he 895 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 8: has a big year. I think Jed you have an 896 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 8: even like a stronger bet On bejan Thn just offensive 897 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,359 Speaker 8: rookie the year. You think you can leave the league 898 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 8: in rushing. 899 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 2: I do, I do. 900 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 1: And a Nobody hunts in pecks for alt lines and 901 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: creative markets better than Brandon Anderson, and nobody can convince 902 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 1: you that it's the most obvious choice to make, no 903 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: matter how long the odds, better than Brandon Anderson. I 904 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 1: agree with everything you just said. 905 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: I love it. I love it all. 906 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 1: Simon and I we both love Arthur Smith. We love 907 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: his creativity. I think it's a little strong to say 908 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: that Drake London, Kyle Pitts, and Bjean Robinson are the 909 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: equivalent of Hall of Fame combination of triplets like the 910 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, but based on Raybond. I do love Bjeon Robinson, 911 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: who is about eleven to one to lead the league 912 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 1: in rushing, because I honestly feel like Arthur Smith might 913 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 1: let him carry the ball. 914 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 2: Two thousand times. 915 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, Raybond, I think Bijon is the best bet in 916 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 6: this market by far because you look at the other guys, 917 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 6: you know, atop the leader board, and it makes sense, 918 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 6: you know, Nick Chubb, Derrick Henry, but those guys are 919 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 6: a little bit older. This award tends to trend younger. 920 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 6: And when you look at you know, since the merger, 921 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:42,720 Speaker 6: we've seen about eleven percent of rookie of the winners 922 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,880 Speaker 6: be rookie running backs. And if it's gonna be a rookie, 923 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 6: it's almost certainly gonna be Bjon Robinson. And that's that 924 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 6: percentage has increased over the last decade or so. Remember 925 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 6: we had two two winners in twenty sixteen and twenty 926 00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 6: seventeen back to back that were rookies. We had Zeke 927 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 6: and then we had Kareem Hunt. So and then you 928 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 6: go back to nineteen ninety nine you had Edger and James. 929 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 6: So you know, in the last just over twenty years, 930 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 6: we've had three. So you know, the likelihood of a 931 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 6: rookie guy like Robinson winning this award just goes up. 932 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 6: He's one of the only guys I think that has 933 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 6: that twenty carry up side outside of your Chubbs and 934 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 6: your Derrick Henry's. So I think Bjon Robins and like 935 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 6: Brandon said, the O line one of the best in 936 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 6: the league. So yeah, I think he's by far the 937 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,439 Speaker 6: best bet in the in this market. A great way 938 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 6: to kind of bet on some some Falcons longer shots. 939 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 6: But I just want to go back to one thing 940 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 6: Brandon you said about, you know, Arthur Smith and the 941 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 6: fact that he's he's in Atlanta now, and that is 942 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 6: one of the reasons I love this Falcon team to 943 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 6: win a division. I think they're best team over the Saints. 944 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 6: But remember the year after Arthur Smith left in Tennessee. 945 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 6: It was twenty twenty one. Derrick Henry missed eight games, 946 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,919 Speaker 6: A J. Brown miss a handful. Guess what the Titans did, 947 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 6: number one seed in AFC. Stop it, stop it, Like 948 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:10,479 Speaker 6: this tight team is too nasty for y'all, Like plus 949 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 6: three twenty to win this division is easy money, Like 950 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 6: it's easy money, but but no, the Falcons. 951 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,280 Speaker 5: I think the Falcons are the best team in this division, Simon. 952 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 6: Like my thing with the Saints is and you kind 953 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 6: of talked about car and him having the new toys, 954 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 6: and I think on the surface that it's true, But 955 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 6: when you look a little deeper, Derek carrs had this 956 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 6: is his fifth new offense, so he's gonna be in 957 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 6: year one of a new offense for the fifth time 958 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 6: as a pro. Right, the previous four times that he's 959 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 6: been in year one of a new offense are his 960 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 6: four worst years in the National Football League in pretty 961 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 6: much every single statistical metric like yards for a tempt, 962 00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 6: passer rating, completion rate, every possible thing like. 963 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 5: Those are just cars worst years. 964 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 6: In years where he's not in year one of a 965 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 6: new offense, he's about out just over five hundred. In 966 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 6: years where he isn't in the first year of the 967 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 6: new offense, he's like twenty two and forty. Like it's 968 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 6: just he just doesn't really catch on that fast, and 969 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 6: like none of his career highs in year one of 970 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:18,240 Speaker 6: a new offense are even as good as what Andy 971 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 6: Dalton did for the Saints last year. So that's why 972 00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 6: I'm a little bit concerned about the about the Saints, 973 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 6: because I think I don't think Derek Carr is really 974 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,919 Speaker 6: the upgrade that people think he is. And then there 975 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 6: is just a lot of fragility with all these older, 976 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 6: older guys. 977 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 5: So yeah, falcons all day for me. 978 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 2: Signing. 979 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 4: Look at you two sitting there with straight faces telling 980 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:45,240 Speaker 4: people put their real money on Desmond Ritters. I mean, Chad, 981 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 4: I gotta play the devil's advocate. 982 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: Man. 983 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 4: I'm the only one here on there under Atlanta. I 984 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 4: get where all these people are coming from. Right, just 985 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 4: because last year they all these one score games. We've 986 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 4: all just watched Mario to play football. This kid could 987 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 4: not be out beat out Marcus Mariota last and you 988 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 4: think he's just gonna turn it around in one year, 989 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 4: right in this offense, He's not. 990 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 3: I've watched him practice. 991 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 4: I've read all the scouts who have gone to their practices, 992 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 4: their beat writers who've been through practice. This kid can't 993 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 4: complete balls twenty yards downfield. Drake Lindon can make incredible catches, 994 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 4: and maybe that's why he'll complete it. 995 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 3: That's it. 996 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 4: Like this kid he's got, he doesn't have what it 997 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 4: takes to making this league. And we just know how 998 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 4: it is. Right, there are twelve really really good elite quarterbacks. 999 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 4: There are ten in between, right, the Tannehills, the Derek Cars, 1000 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,359 Speaker 4: and there's just ten rookies and a ton of shit 1001 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 4: and That's just what football is. And every year in 1002 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 4: the preseason, people will hype up their guys. Right, Jordan 1003 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 4: Love three touchdowns, he looks incredible for Green Bay. I 1004 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 4: always tell people going back to Sam Bradford had three 1005 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 4: touchdowns in one quarter against Green Bay. I think we 1006 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 4: had four wins that season on the Eagles. It's just 1007 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. Right, you're throwing against Aaron Prez's so 1008 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 4: I get the hype, right, A Landa on paper is good, right, 1009 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 4: they played in really close games with what you guys said, 1010 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,800 Speaker 4: a corpse of Mariota. It just feels like this is 1011 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 4: the darling of everyone. Everyone's telling you to bet this team. 1012 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 4: And that's why again I like the Saints. I'm getting 1013 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 4: a good number. I'm getting the best quarterback in this division, 1014 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 4: and I think the most complete offense where this team. 1015 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 4: It's got a lung, young talent and potential. Never have 1016 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 4: seen the talent, right, I've never seen Drake Lennon show out, 1017 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,320 Speaker 4: never seen Kyle Pitch show out. 1018 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 3: Robinson could be incredible. To me. 1019 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,359 Speaker 4: That running back is they're all gonna kind of eat 1020 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,720 Speaker 4: away each other's carrieres. That's just why I love Robinson's upside. 1021 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 4: It's just they got a lot of mouths to feed 1022 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 4: in that backfield. I don't think Arthur's just gonna make 1023 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 4: him the three down lead horse back. 1024 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 3: I haven't seen that in this preseason. I don't expect it. 1025 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 4: For this upcoming season. So I get the love for Atlanta. 1026 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 4: I just think they've done this team wrong. Where they 1027 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 4: should have took justin fields, they took a tight end 1028 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 4: and now they're gonna be paying for it. Right, They're 1029 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 4: just not gonna throw this third round, third rounder and 1030 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 4: from Cincinnati, and he's gonna really take off. I just 1031 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 4: have not seen anything. Even their beat writers, right, the 1032 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 4: beat writers supposed to smoke up their own team and 1033 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 4: be like this kid looks great. You're just not hearing it, right, 1034 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,359 Speaker 4: You're just not hearing at all from this Atlanta camp, 1035 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 4: because the kid is he's just not that talented. So 1036 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 4: to me, if Atlanta gets eight and a half, it's 1037 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,839 Speaker 4: all Arthur Smith, Like, that's just an incredible coaching job, 1038 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 4: just because I don't think they have a starting quarterback 1039 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 4: on the shroster right now. 1040 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:12,919 Speaker 5: Look at them last year. 1041 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 6: So last year right with Mariota for thirteen games and 1042 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 6: rookie Ridder for four This was the best offense in 1043 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,800 Speaker 6: the division by dv Away, the best offense Tom Brady 1044 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 6: started seventeen games for the Tampa Bay Bucks. Atlanta was 1045 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 6: the best offense in the division. 1046 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,319 Speaker 4: They had third stringers on that old line, and man, 1047 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 4: Tom Brady might get us a Chris Godwin like. 1048 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:37,439 Speaker 3: Brady. That's my point. 1049 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 6: So now you're saying Tom Brady can't make third string 1050 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 6: offensive line good. But a team with a great offensive line, 1051 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,479 Speaker 6: great skill position players, a coach who's proven to take 1052 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 6: less and make it into more, and a team that 1053 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 6: already had the best offense in the division. You're telling 1054 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,800 Speaker 6: me that they can't win this division now with Brady Gord. 1055 00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:57,239 Speaker 4: If it's thirty eight, it's over. It's either be gonna 1056 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 4: be a pick or the balls in the ground. Ridder, Dude, 1057 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,439 Speaker 4: this kid, I'm telling you you're gonna be pissed. You're 1058 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 4: gonna be so pissed yourself for having money on week 1059 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 4: the week, maybe not, but season long. I'm telling you, 1060 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,359 Speaker 4: Desmond is not not the answer in Atlanta. They're gonna 1061 00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 4: either have Kyler Murray next year or Tannehill. This is 1062 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 4: not the future for them. 1063 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 5: Already the best offense in the division. 1064 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 4: And I remember people are down the scene Saints are 1065 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 4: a better offense. 1066 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 3: They're proving old. 1067 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 5: Michael Thomas, Tom Hill. 1068 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 6: Take some hills, old as fucked Like he's not gonna 1069 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 6: get He's not gonna get credit for like twelve. 1070 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,240 Speaker 3: Touchdowns, Jehang Johnson. 1071 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 6: Johnson, we're sleeping on because like Simon, I think you 1072 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 6: kind of said the same thing about about the forty 1073 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 6: nine ers to it in a different way. I feel 1074 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 6: like we're sleeping on these offenses that are kind of 1075 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 6: built to be kind of almost quarterback proof. 1076 00:50:55,560 --> 00:51:00,240 Speaker 5: It's like great offensive line, great skilled players, great coach 1077 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 5: who only the only. 1078 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 6: Thing the quarterback has to do is fucking distribute the ball. 1079 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 6: And like if Ritter focks it up, look at Heinike 1080 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 6: Heineck came in for Carson Wentz. 1081 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 3: We all. 1082 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,320 Speaker 6: I mean, I know, I was like, Carson Wentz is 1083 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 6: not it? Heineke comes in same team and they go 1084 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 6: on a winning streak for you know what I mean, 1085 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,760 Speaker 6: Like it doesn't is not gonna take much in this division. 1086 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 6: And by the way, Drake London, when Ritter came seven 1087 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 6: for seventy on eleven targets, seven for ninety six U 1088 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 6: six for one twenty. 1089 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 3: Nothing over twenty yards though, that's my point. It's all. 1090 00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:32,879 Speaker 6: He was the last game of the year, he literally 1091 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:34,919 Speaker 6: averaged twenty yards to catch six. 1092 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 2: That's twenty yards to catch, guys. 1093 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: Here's the one bet we can agree on, because we 1094 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 1: got to get to the last best bet. The one 1095 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 1: bet we can agree on coming out of Atlanta. Arthur 1096 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 1: Smith is going to put the ball in Bjon Robinson's 1097 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 1: hands as much as he possibly can. The game plan 1098 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: is going to be get it out of Desmond Ridder's hand, 1099 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 1: put it in Bjon Robinson's hand. He might make Bijon 1100 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 1: Robbins to be the Corderio Patterson player and just get 1101 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: the ball directly from center. And we also know Chris 1102 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,920 Speaker 1: Listrom one of the best run blockers in the NFL, 1103 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 1: also one of the top ten highest paid players in 1104 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: the NFL this year because of his signing bonus. This 1105 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: team is about Arthur Smith Jon Robinson. 1106 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 2: That's it. 1107 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 1: So we're going to bet Bjeon Robinson to lead the 1108 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: league in rushing. We're gonna bet Bjon Robinson for offensive 1109 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year, and we're going to remind people 1110 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 1: catch every episode of the favorites live. 1111 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 2: On YouTube, so you can get the kind of banter. 1112 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 1: And discourse that you're getting right now.

We mentioned this team earlier. 1142 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 1: I'd say in the last twenty four to forty eight hours, 1143 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 1: I've heard more hype about. 1144 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,399 Speaker 2: This team than any other team. 1145 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: Simon, I know you're starting to fall in love with 1146 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: them a little bit, at least at their price. Brandon, 1147 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:20,879 Speaker 1: tell me your final best bet. 1148 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 8: I'm going with the Dallas Cowboys, and I'm looking to 1149 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 8: bet in and often on the Dallas Cowboys. We made 1150 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 8: really the case for them earlier in the podcast. Sorry Chad, 1151 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 8: when you had the forty nine Ers Super Bowl bet 1152 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 8: and Simon got in and Chris got in coming against it. 1153 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 8: I'm also against it. I don't like the Niners there. 1154 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 8: I have them worse on offense and on defense this year. 1155 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 8: I need to see it from Purdy. The Eagles are 1156 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,239 Speaker 8: just a classic regression team. I think they're gonna be good. 1157 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 8: The floor is very high. They have the number one 1158 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 8: offensive line, but there's some questions on defense. They lost 1159 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,439 Speaker 8: a lot of the spine. They're just an obvious team 1160 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,319 Speaker 8: that is not going to match what they did last year. 1161 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 8: We pretty much know that. And in the NFC, that's it. 1162 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 8: Who does that leave but the Dallas Cowboys. So, as 1163 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 8: Homer Simpson would say the two sweetest words in the 1164 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 8: English language, d fault, it's the Cowboys. They added Stefan Gilmour, 1165 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 8: addressed the cornerback need, so now he's in the room. 1166 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 8: They added the wide receiver too, Brandon Cook, So I 1167 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 8: think it's gonna be a really good fit on this 1168 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 8: particular offense. They effectively added Tyrone Smith, Please God stay 1169 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 8: healthy at left tackle. We never know with him, but 1170 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,359 Speaker 8: while he's healthy, it's probably a top five offensive line. 1171 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 8: They use their first round pick on a nose tackle, 1172 00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,880 Speaker 8: Mazzie Smith. You don't do that unless you know you 1173 00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,439 Speaker 8: are like two pieces away for wing the Super Bowl. 1174 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 8: I just need a fat dude on the line to 1175 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 8: please block and get somebody in the run game. Stop 1176 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,879 Speaker 8: letting him run up our throat. Mazie that's what he's 1177 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 8: there for. Dak miss five games last year too, and frankly, 1178 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 8: I think no Zeke is additioned by subtraction, not because 1179 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 8: he's terrible, but because they over relied on him and 1180 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 8: Mike McCarthy. I would not want Mike McCarthy handling my money. 1181 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 8: I am not excited that he is part of this bet. 1182 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 8: We have to live with it. However, his teams have 1183 00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 8: skewed pass heavy over the years when he's in charge, 1184 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,839 Speaker 8: and I think that might, accidentally, if it's true, help 1185 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 8: this team out last Zeke running into the line that 1186 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:19,240 Speaker 8: hasn't been working for years. 1187 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 3: More. 1188 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 8: Hey, our top ten quarterback Dak Prescott throw the ball 1189 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 8: and Bran Schotenheimer. I don't want him near my money either. 1190 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 3: He's the OC. 1191 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 8: But what he has done successfully is get the ball 1192 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 8: to receivers in space and let them create. Afterward, we'll 1193 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 8: look at the receivers. Brandon Cooke's lightning speed, Ceedee Lamb, 1194 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 8: a guy who is a yack monster in college and 1195 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,440 Speaker 8: hasn't really had good chances to do that in Dallas. 1196 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 8: I think it sets up well for what they do. 1197 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 8: The defense, obviously we know is good. Their top two 1198 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 8: DVA each of the last two years. They led the 1199 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,760 Speaker 8: league in takeaways both years. Dan quinn great coordinator Micah 1200 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 8: Parsons is the correct favorite for a player of the 1201 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:01,479 Speaker 8: Year on defense. To me, it just it's a team 1202 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 8: that has all the makings of a very good season. 1203 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 8: So I am ready to bet even more in on 1204 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,840 Speaker 8: this team than I did on Philly last year. My 1205 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 8: regret with Philly. I was in on them from the beginning. Simon, 1206 00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 8: you and I talked about them. I think I was 1207 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 8: on this podcast on them. I had like a twenty 1208 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 8: to one most wins. What I didn't get was some 1209 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 8: of the other escalator stuff along the way. I love 1210 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,919 Speaker 8: to say, Okay, who do I like? So Dallas over 1211 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 8: nine and a half? Eh, the juice is pretty high. 1212 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 8: I don't really need it. So what can I do here? 1213 00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 8: All Right? Division almost two to one at most books, 1214 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 8: So give me the division. Effectively, that's just a head 1215 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 8: to head bet. Do I like the Cowboys or the Eagles? 1216 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,040 Speaker 8: I'm gonna bet on the Cowboys Late in the season, 1217 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:45,480 Speaker 8: when Dallas hosts Philadelphia for obviously a key game. Philly 1218 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 8: is coming off of this wicked month long stretch against 1219 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 8: like the best teams in the league three or four 1220 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 8: straight games, and then at Dallas at the end of that. 1221 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 8: That's a huge game, maybe the most important game in 1222 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 8: the NFC, and it's a great schedule spot for Dallas. 1223 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 8: So give me the at bet three six five. You 1224 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 8: can go Dallas one to Philly two plus two seventy. 1225 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 8: So add a little bit of juice there. Come on 1226 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 8: the Giants and the Commander. They're not sneaking in here, 1227 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 8: so give me that. Give me the one seed plus 1228 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 8: six fifty most wins. If you're the one seed in 1229 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:18,120 Speaker 8: the NFC bloodbath in the AFC, you're probably gonna be 1230 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 8: the best record, just like Philly was last year. Most 1231 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 8: wins at bet three six five as fourteen to one. 1232 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 8: I like the alternate over twelve and a half. That's 1233 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 8: plus four to twenty five. You get thirteen wins or more. 1234 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 8: Probably gonna do that. If you're in this division. You 1235 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,040 Speaker 8: beat the Eagles at least once, maybe twice, and then 1236 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 8: I gotta do it. If you are the one seed, 1237 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 8: I can truly say I don't believe these necessarily, But 1238 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 8: if you're the one seed, the two bets I didn't 1239 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 8: make last preseason, that nearly cashed, and I would have 1240 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 8: hated myself. Is I did not quite bet on Jalen 1241 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 8: Hurts do an MVP, even though I thought it was possible. 1242 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 8: And I did not bet Philly to win the Super Bowl, 1243 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 8: even though I thought that was possible. They didn't, but 1244 00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 8: they got real close, and I would have rather had 1245 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 8: those tickets all season. So give me the fifteen to 1246 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 8: one super Bowl. If you're the one seed in the 1247 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 8: open NFC, you have to do it. They give me 1248 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 8: Dack twenty five to one MVP quarterback of the one 1249 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 8: seed on America's team, say no more. If you're that, 1250 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 8: you're gonna be in the MVP mix. We know MVP 1251 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 8: is a quarterback. We know it's a top two seed. 1252 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 8: His yards per attempt, his TD rate, his EPA, those 1253 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 8: numbers are there. I think the production will be not overwhelming. 1254 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 8: But if you're the Cowboys quarterback on a one seed 1255 00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 8: juggernaut team, which they have the possibility of being, twenty 1256 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 8: five to one is just too long of a number. 1257 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 8: So I can't believe this. I mentioned the Triplets earlier. 1258 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 8: I grew up in the nineties absolutely hating this team. 1259 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 8: I am not a Cowboys fan, but I am a 1260 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,560 Speaker 8: fan of money, and I will put my money in 1261 00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 8: the Cowboys lots of ways and hope that they do 1262 00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 8: well this year. 1263 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 1: The Cowboys would becoming one of those teams where I 1264 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 1: sprayed the field with so many freaking futures over the 1265 00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: last six months and just had a blind spot for 1266 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys because of their history, because of Jerry, because 1267 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 1: of Mike McCarthy Simon. You talked about him last week 1268 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: when we had Russ Tucker on. 1269 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,320 Speaker 2: I just missed it. I missed it. I missed all 1270 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 2: of it. I missed the value. It's making me sick. Terrible, 1271 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 2: just terrible. Ray Bon. 1272 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: One final bet from you, my friend. 1273 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 5: I love I love the Cowboys too, by the way, 1274 01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 5: But yeah, I'm going I gotta I gotta go. Yeah, 1275 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 5: we gotta go back. We gotta go back to the 1276 01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 5: NFC South. 1277 01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:36,080 Speaker 6: You know, usually we talked about usually we were talking 1278 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 6: about uh overs and and I mean usually we're talking 1279 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 6: about unders, but we talked about all overs. 1280 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,760 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna give you a team on Faden and 1281 01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 5: that's the Carolina Panthers. 1282 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:45,400 Speaker 6: Uh. 1283 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:46,960 Speaker 5: This is another one of those teams. 1284 01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 6: You know, rookie quarterback, so you know that's a thirty 1285 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,200 Speaker 6: seven percent chance right there over the last two decades 1286 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,360 Speaker 6: plus to go over the win total. But every year 1287 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 6: there's one, there's these one or two teams where if 1288 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 6: you could kind of pick them out early, they're just 1289 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 6: gonna be poorly run, poorly coached. And you know, it 1290 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 6: was Urban Meyer a couple of years ago. Hackett and 1291 01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 6: the Broncos last year. I think this year is gonna 1292 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:14,320 Speaker 6: be Frank reich and and the Carolina Panthers. Think I 1293 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,919 Speaker 6: hate every move they made outside of getting Bryce Young. 1294 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 6: I mean, first of all, they get Bryce Young, and 1295 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 6: I get it, like you gotta, you know, go all 1296 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 6: out for your franchise quarterback, but come on, like, get 1297 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 6: get a deal done that doesn't give up his future 1298 01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 6: number one receiver just to get him there. 1299 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 5: So like you got Fleets for that. 1300 01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:38,480 Speaker 6: You pay fourteen mil to Thie win Over thirty year 1301 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,919 Speaker 6: old cooked. You pay thirteen mel for Hayden Hurst, thirty 1302 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 6: year old tight end not never had six hundred yards 1303 01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 6: in a season. You pay, you pay the most, You 1304 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 6: spend the most at running back, which shows you don't 1305 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 6: know what the hell you're doing. For Miles Sanders, who 1306 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 6: goes from you know, a great situation to one where 1307 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 6: it's like, you know, bad because the offensive line is 1308 01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 6: not good. Your top pick from last year, ik Yakwan 1309 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,959 Speaker 6: has regressed. Uh, this is just reeks of a team 1310 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 6: that they're trying to get these like veteran stop gaps 1311 01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 6: because Frank Reich doesn't want to lose, even though he 1312 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 6: should be rebuilding. He's coming off these disastrous seasons in Indianapolis. 1313 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:19,280 Speaker 6: But guess what he lost Gannon iber Flus. Uh. 1314 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 5: You know, although all of his top Sirianni. 1315 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 6: Once he started losing his coaching staff, that's when you 1316 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 6: started seeing the coach blowing all those those games and 1317 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 6: just being a disaster. 1318 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 5: This Carolina team doesn't have any of it. The GM 1319 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 5: is bad, the coach is bad. 1320 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 6: These teams usually struggle anyway. The only reason they're even 1321 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 6: at seven and a half is because they're in his 1322 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 6: weak division. But at the end of the day, this 1323 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 6: team is not gonna win many games. In my opinion, 1324 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 6: I think they're gonna They're one of the few teams 1325 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 6: that their coaches is gonna lose them games. And you're 1326 01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 6: already starting to see the depth the lack of depth 1327 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 6: play out. I mean, they literally got shut out in 1328 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 6: the first week of the preseason.
