Going back to 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 5: week one, Brandon, let's start with you Week eleven, Best 40 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 5: Bet number one. 41 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: What do you have? 42 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a tough slate. This week we get a 43 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 3: really fun game Thursday night, we get a really fun game. 44 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 3: Monday night, we get a lot of weird long like 45 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 3: we've got. I think seven games at a touchdowner longer 46 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 3: on Sunday. I think five games around double digits are longer. 47 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: You're pinning on to where a couple of them end up. 48 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 3: So it's a hard slate to pick between. I'm gonna 49 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 3: pick one of those long underdogs to start out. Give 50 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 3: me the New York Jets plus seven at the Bills. Like, 51 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 3: we watched this game the Monday night opener. We all 52 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: watched it with Ciron and Rodgers. A couple of plays 53 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: in the game go down. We saw the Jets win, 54 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 3: and everybody knows the Bills should have won that game, right, 55 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 3: we all saw it happen. The Bills were much better. 56 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 3: This is not that Bills team anymore. I just think 57 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 3: the Bills are broken right now. Right after that game, 58 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: the Bills were the right play. They were scoring forty 59 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: one points a game. The next three games after that 60 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 3: Jets loss, they responded. But since then six games twenty 61 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 3: point five points a game, the offense has fallen off. 62 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 3: I know we've we've fired Ken Dorsey this week. The 63 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 3: scoring has not been there, and I think that this 64 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 3: is a pretty tough time to turn over your play 65 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 3: calling duties from Dorsey to Joe Brady, who I like. 66 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: But you got to do that against this defense, this 67 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: Jets defense, with like a few days to install whatever 68 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 3: you're doing with the offense or whatever plays are gonna 69 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 3: be calling. I think it's a tough match of the 70 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 3: Jets defense really has become everything it was supposed to be, 71 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 3: the elite, elite pass defense, probably the best unit in 72 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 3: the NFL right now by DVOA. They're basically measuring up 73 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: even with the Browns the last like four to six 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: weeks as the top defense. So they've always been a 75 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: problem against Josh Allen. Last three games for Allen against 76 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 3: the Jets, he's averaging one hundred and ninety six yards 77 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: per game passing, so under two hundred, two touchdowns, six 78 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: interceptions in those games, all three one score games. That 79 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 3: gets us home here seven to the last ten Jets 80 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: Bills games to one score games. So I just think 81 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: the line is too high. Bill's defense is second to 82 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: worst in the NFL by DVA the last six weeks. 83 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: Past defense especially has been bad. Their leak against wide 84 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 3: receiver one. That's like the one thing the Jets have 85 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: right So I think Garrett Wilson can have a good game. 86 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 3: I think the Jets can hang enough on early downs 87 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 3: to at least give themself a chance offensively. Last six 88 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 3: games we talked about that stretch earlier. Buffalo in that 89 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 3: stretch is two and four. There are two wins. We're 90 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: by a one score over the Giants and by one 91 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: score over the Bucks. It's not a very good team. Honestly, 92 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 3: are we positive the Bills are even the better team here? 93 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm gonna take the Jets plus seven. 94 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 5: Okay, And as we know, Buffalo, not that it matters 95 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 5: all that much against Zach Wilson's pretty terrible regardless, but 96 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 5: the Bills are also really banged up, so maybe that's 97 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 5: a soft landing for Zach Wilson to look better. And 98 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 5: by the way, a lot of folks at Action have 99 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 5: been betting that first half under and that number keeps 100 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 5: coming down to so you're getting a touchdown with a 101 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 5: total of forty, getting the team that's an underdog with 102 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 5: the touchdown. That's always a good sign too for you. 103 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the Jets are just the jests of and 104 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's kryptonite. And yeah, in all of the games 105 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: that they've been as krypto knit Josh Allen, this offense, 106 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: it's playing extremely well. Now it's scary to think what's 107 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: going to happen with them playing Probably. 108 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: The worst that they have in the last two years? 109 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 5: Is it fair to say, just from a narrative perspective, 110 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 5: just like like just if we're just having a we're 111 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 5: having a drink and we're all shooting the breeze. This 112 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 5: is the first time Josh Allen's really faced crisis, right, 113 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 5: Is that fair? Like crisis as a peak quarterback at 114 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 5: this point in his career? 115 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 3: Is that fair as a peak quarterback? I was gonna 116 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 3: say the crisis when he was like not an AFL 117 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 3: quarterback for two seasons, We'll call that a crisis. 118 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 5: That card game a few years ago against the Texans. Yeah, 119 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 5: he was running the round with his head chopped off. 120 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 5: I mean, like, knowing that he's top tier crisis. 121 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: It's making me crazy, honestly, because like I just you 122 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: see on Twitter and I see tweets about like he 123 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: he has elite in. 124 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 2: Every statistical category. 125 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: If the Bills out a winning record, Josh Allen would 126 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: be the favorite to win MVP. And like, honestly, if 127 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: you just watch these games, like like that pick before 128 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: the half on Monday was so. 129 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 2: Bad, Like I don't care about the stats. 130 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't care about anything. Like it's just not working 131 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: right now. For him, and it's just one. 132 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 3: Of the funny notes about this game. 133 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 4: So obviously I bet interceptions a lot, and Josh Allen 134 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: leaves the NFL in interceptions, and right now both him 135 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 4: and Zach Wilson have the exact same odds to throw 136 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 4: an interception in this game at minus one sixty five. 137 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 3: So what does that tell you, Well, he's. 138 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: Amount of times. 139 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: I was gonna bring up the interceptions line too. I 140 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 3: look for that one because I wanted to bet it here, 141 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 3: and I was just like, oh man, that's that's pretty 142 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: insulting to take a guy that a week ago as 143 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 3: the MVP favorite and is now basically like sixty percent 144 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 3: to definitely have an interception, you pretty much have to 145 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 3: bet multiple interceptions here, which he probably will based on 146 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 3: his Jets history, but to get any value on it. 147 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's it's a tough spot. I'm not gonna 148 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 3: play the money line here. I'm just gonna take the seven. 149 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 3: I do think that to me, the narrative you mentioned, Brennan, 150 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 3: I think the narrative is that this is ugly and gross, 151 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: but the Bills like pulled out and saved the season 152 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 3: at least for now. I think that's probably where this heads, 153 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: but we'll see. I'll take the seven. 154 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 5: Okay, we spent a little extra time there dumping on 155 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 5: the bills, so we'll have to move it along. Luke, 156 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 5: your first bet, please. 157 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with the Cardinals plus five at 158 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: the Texans, which this one really is Kyler like he 159 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: is so back, Like if you just watch that game, 160 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: he looked comfortable. 161 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: It's honestly incredible how quick he looked. 162 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: Like there were some plays he was just getting out 163 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: of pressure and like that's where he makes like his plays, 164 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: or he's not looking to run, he's kind of just 165 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: maneuvering around, which he looked fantastic. And then when he 166 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: started to run, you can kind of see that he 167 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: started to drag his leg. But Kyle looked amazing. James 168 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: Connor was back this team every single week, no matter. 169 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: How bad they've played. They are very motivated. 170 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: There's no tanking going on with this Cardinals team going 171 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: against the Texans defense that is bottom half in every 172 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: single category currently, like CJ. Stratt is playing out of 173 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: his mind. They have been an extremely explosive offense and 174 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: that offense is definitely going to get Theirs. But if 175 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: you look at the games that they've had the most 176 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: success in this season, it's against the Steelers, Bengals in Tampa, 177 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: which all three of those teams are the bottom three 178 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: teams and explosive plays allowed. And the games that they've 179 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: had like mediocre or subpar game offensive games are against 180 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: the raven Saints. 181 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: And I can't even read my handwriting. 182 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: There's a fourth team, but they put nine, thirteen, nineteen, 183 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: and twenty points up against those four teams that are 184 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: top thirteen and explosive plays allowed. So you can clearly 185 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: see the difference between the two. And Cardinals are the 186 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: eighth defense in terms of explosive plays allowed. 187 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 2: So if there is. 188 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: A trend between those two scenarios like it definitely favors 189 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: the Cardinals defense in this spot. 190 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: And let's not forget that this. 191 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: Texans team just lost to the Panthers. 192 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: They should have lost the Bucks. 193 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: They're still going to get theirs, but I don't trust 194 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: this defense. 195 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 2: Kyle looks totally back, probably better. 196 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: He looked better last week than he did anytime I 197 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: watched him last season. James Connor clearly is a huge 198 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: difference maker, maybe one of the most important running backs 199 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: to their team in the entire league. And then you 200 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: look at Kyler as an underdog, he's twenty one and eleven, 201 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: which is sixty six percent, and he's thirteen and five 202 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: on the road as an underdog. So Kyler as an 203 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: underdog is clearly like thrived. And this Texans team has 204 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: been more of a two and a half point favorite 205 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: this entire season yet. So this is a totally different 206 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: spot for them, laying five against the Cardinals team on 207 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: the road that it just lay like. It's just a 208 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: new spot that they're continuing to be America's public darling. 209 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: They burned me last week against the Bengals, but hopefully 210 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: we can get home with the plus five here. 211 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 2: I just can't catch to this number. All right? 212 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 5: Very good? Yeah, Kyler loved throw it at the tight 213 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 5: end Trey McBride. He looked good. And it's clear that 214 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 5: they held Kyler out those extra few weeks to really 215 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 5: get him right. I'm wondering if that had something to 216 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 5: do with their win and lost record because of where 217 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 5: their draft pick is right now. But of course he 218 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 5: comes back last week and they win. Jill, your first 219 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 5: pick has a connection to this game. 220 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, So this one's tough. 221 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 4: Because I feel like I don't want to disagree with 222 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 4: Luke here on how Kyler looked, because again it's all 223 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 4: about subjective Like if he thinks he looked good, I 224 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 4: believe Luke. But for me, the statistics did not add 225 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 4: up to seeing Kyler Murray looking as good as I 226 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 4: thought he was. So that's why I'm going to take 227 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 4: an interception in this game for Kyler to throw a 228 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: pick at minus one fifteen. Now here's why I'm just 229 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 4: in a little bit of a disagreement with Luke because 230 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 4: he did have obviously some spectacular runs like that run 231 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 4: last week on third down to extend the play that 232 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 4: was amazing, but he was also only fifty two percent 233 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 4: passing on almost thirty pass attempts. He was two for 234 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 4: nine on third down throwing the ball, and this Falcons 235 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: defense isn't that good, and part of it could be Russ, 236 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 4: but really the reason is is because there's just a 237 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 4: lot of lack of talent on the Cardinals. Like, look, 238 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: I'm not going to say that Trey McBride didn't look good, 239 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 4: but let's not pretend like he's a top ten tight 240 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 4: end in the NFL. Same thing with Hollywood Brown Rondelle Moore. 241 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 4: They're not really going to win a ton of one 242 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 4: on one matchups. And the other thing about interceptions here, 243 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 4: especially with Kyler, is I feel like we kind of 244 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 4: like got zapped by like the men in Black here, 245 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 4: like where I just forgetting what he's done in his career. 246 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 4: But he had seven picks and ten games last year. 247 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 4: Historically in his career, he has thrown forty two interceptions 248 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 4: in fifty eight games. That's seventy two percent of every 249 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 4: game he has played. And you could say, well, Juli're 250 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 4: just cheery pick, and it's like, Okay, let's look at 251 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 4: all the splits. Let's exclude his rookie year. It's still 252 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 4: seventy percent. If you go through the Kingsbury era, it's 253 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 4: still at seventy one percent. So again, like it's not 254 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 4: like I'm just looking at oh, look at this specific 255 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 4: slant or this specific split. It's in his entire career. 256 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 4: So the reason why we're getting minus one fifteen is 257 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 4: because they won that game. Had the Cardinals lost, its 258 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 4: probably closer to minus one thirty minus one forty. I 259 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 4: think this Texans defense getting a little bit more improved now. 260 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: Derek Stingley was back last week. That's why they did 261 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 4: have two picks last week on Joe Burrow. So this 262 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 4: isn't me disagreeing with Luke saying they can't cover the five. 263 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 4: This is me just saying that I think Kyler Murray 264 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 4: still maybe isn't all the way back, and with that 265 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 4: talent around him, I think he's more prone to throw 266 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 4: an interception than not. So I'm going to take him 267 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 4: to throw a pick at minus one fifteen. 268 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 2: Yeah. 269 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: When I and when I say he's like back, I 270 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: met like confident ac. I was expecting to see like 271 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: a knee brace on his knee. Didn't have a knee brace, 272 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: and just not the explosive Kyler we were used to. 273 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: I was not expecting last week, and honestly, we got 274 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: way more in terms of really with his legs than 275 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: I ever expected eleven. 276 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 4: I wasn't expecting it to either Luke though, because even 277 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 4: last week they had his anytime touchdown on as plus 278 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: two forty and last year before the injury, his range 279 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 4: was around plus one fifty to plus one seventy five, 280 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 4: So I think even sports books weren't sure if he 281 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 4: was gonna be all the way back, And then of 282 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 4: course he scores a rushing touchdown, You're not gonna see 283 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: his odds about plus two hundred likely the rest of 284 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 4: the year, right right. 285 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 5: And the Texans are getting healthier both fronts of offensively 286 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 5: on the line and also in their defensive front, so 287 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 5: that could set up well for you too. All right, Brandon, 288 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 5: what do you got? You're gonna go to the prop 289 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 5: market for your second one? 290 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 3: I am. I almost went with a side on this one. 291 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go to the Raiders and Dolphins game and 292 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 3: I try to talk myself into the Raiders. I think 293 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 3: this line is way too long on their side. But 294 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna play the reason I think the line is 295 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 3: too long, and that's Josh Jacobs. So give me Josh 296 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 3: Jacobs over sixty one and a half rushing yards. Look, 297 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 3: life is great for the Raiders right now. Antonio Peers 298 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 3: is there. They're two and zero. They're smoking stogies in 299 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 3: the locker room, like life is great when you face 300 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 3: Tommy DeVito and Zach Wilson. So this is not that 301 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 3: they gotta face their offense now, but a thing that 302 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 3: I've noticed during those games and kind of what I expected. 303 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 3: Antonio Pierce, tough guy, linebacker. What are you gonna do? 304 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 3: Play defense and run the football. So Josh Jacobs the 305 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 3: last two weeks in the debut for Pierce, twenty six 306 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 3: carries ninety eight yards and two scores. Last week twenty 307 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 3: seven carries one hundred and sixteen yards. He's not really 308 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: been more efficient. That's still basically four yards of carry, 309 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 3: but he's had the two highest carry total of the season. 310 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 3: He's leading the league right now I think by like 311 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: twenty six or twenty seven carries. So this is last 312 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 3: year's rushing leader. The offensive line has been pretty good. 313 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 3: They've continued out perform expectations. And the Dolphins, even though 314 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: I do think their defense is actually playing better. That's 315 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 3: mostly the pass defense, that's Jalen Ramsey, it's the secondary. 316 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 3: The run defense can still be got. Basically there's seventh 317 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 3: worst in run DVA Defensively this season, six running backs 318 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 3: against Miami have had at least fifth carries, and Jacobs 319 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: for sure will get at least fifteen carries. Five of 320 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: those six went over this rushing line, So I think 321 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: that's the formula for the Raiders. You've got a rookie 322 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 3: quarterback on the road against this high powered offense. What 323 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 3: are you gonna do? Protect your quarterback, run the ball, 324 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: chew up the clock, try to keep the offense off 325 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 3: the field. Pretty standard formula. So I like Jacobs. I'm 326 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 3: not gonna do escalator on this one here. I think 327 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: just taking the traditional over is right to me. I 328 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 3: think this line should be more like in the seventies, 329 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 3: even high seventies. I've been talking on my power rankings column. 330 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 3: I think there's value on Jacobs to lead the league 331 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 3: in rushing again. Also, I got that at twenty eight 332 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 3: to one last week. I think it's still twelve to 333 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 3: one at books out there. He's three yards off of 334 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 3: second place right now, and he's getting this huge workload 335 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: under Piers. So I'm gonna play at this game, but 336 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 3: I think you can play it for the season to 337 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 3: Jacob's over sixty one and a half yards. 338 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 5: So I realized only had two catches in the Jets game. 339 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 5: But could I ask you why you might not be 340 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 5: looking at rushing and receiving because of the possible game 341 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 5: script of the Raiders trailing. I mean, you're Brandon, let's 342 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 5: be honest, You're hoping this game is stays one score, 343 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 5: game tight for the first half minimum to keep the 344 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 5: ground game formidable for the Raiders. 345 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good question. I would hope that, of course, 346 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 3: And like I said that, that's kind of part of 347 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 3: the angle is that I do think that the Lion 348 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 3: stays close. I honestly would make this like closer to seven, 349 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 3: and it's almost two touchdowns now, like it just keeps 350 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 3: going up, which to me that tells me I just 351 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 3: must be missing something I'm evaluating wrong, like I shouldn't 352 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: be off by a touchdown. So that's why I'm not 353 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 3: on the Raiders here. But I honestly just think that 354 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 3: the Raiders are going to run the ball either way. 355 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 3: I hope it stays close, but I think that it's 356 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 3: eight and account along the road against a tough secondary, 357 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 3: like you don't have to get out a jail free card. 358 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 3: You only really can just keep trying to run the ball. 359 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 3: They didn't have a lot of other options. Obviously you 360 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 3: got DeVante Adams. But I just think the part of 361 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 3: the reason here while I'm stingying with the rushing is 362 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: I think they feed Jacobs. So I hopefully it stays 363 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 3: close that's for the better. But even if they're down, 364 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 3: I don't know if they really have too many other options, 365 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 3: but just keep running the ball. 366 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 5: Okay, all right, Luke, you have another side for a 367 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 5: second one, please? 368 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 1: Yes, I'm gonna go with the Rams, which currently are 369 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: plus one hosting the Seahawks, which this is definitely a 370 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: tough week and there's a lot of double digit spreads, 371 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of higher like like as Brandon said, 372 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: touchdown or more, and in a week that's tough like 373 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: this Rams plus one, I wish I was getting a 374 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: better price, honestly, But at the same time, like this 375 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: Seahawks team, I just can't trust anymore. 376 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 3: I've bet on them. 377 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: I've gotten burned on by them multiple times this year 378 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: and games that they shouldn't have covered that they covered 379 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: them last week, that fourth down touchdown that the Commanders 380 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: had was just truly painful, which. 381 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 5: Sean Corner yesterday on one of our shows, Happy Hour, 382 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 5: a Wednesday night show on our YouTube page, Sean Kerner 383 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 5: gave out Seahawks under nine and a half wins at 384 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 5: plus money last night shows. He's down on them too. 385 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, So the Seahawks team, I'm kind of just off 386 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: of right now, and you really just I can't trust 387 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: them going against a Rams team who has been fighting 388 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: the injury bug and is coming off of their bye 389 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: week that should be healthier. And really the key to 390 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: this whole thing is really checking the Stafford practice reports 391 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 1: and seeing if he was a full participant in the practice, 392 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: which yesterday he was, which I'm going to assume he 393 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: is today and tomorrow. We're going to get a healthy 394 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: Stafford on Sunday. So it is a thumb injury, and 395 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 1: those things can happen any play and reaggravate it, which 396 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: is probably the concern. But if you saw Week one Stafford, 397 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: probably against the Seahawks team in Seattle, Stafford looked like 398 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: Stafford on the lines. He was slinging around, and that 399 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: without Cooper Cup who he has now, and Stafford just 400 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: dices the zone, and the Seahawks play at a very 401 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: high zone rate. So I don't see much that is 402 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: going to stop this Rams offense going against the Seahawks 403 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 1: team that I just can't trust. The Rams play zone 404 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: a lot, which is what Gino likes. But again, Geno, 405 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: to me feels like he's starting to come back down 406 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: to earth and be the quarterback that we thought he 407 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: was the entire time. So I'll just take this Rams 408 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: team at plus one. I wouldn't lay plus one pick 409 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: on money line whatever it is, so Rams at home. 410 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 5: Okay, we're recording on a Thursday afternoon, so of course 411 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 5: you're not going to hear any picks for Baltimore and Cincinnati. 412 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 5: But really, the game of the weekend is Monday night, 413 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 5: Kansas City hosting Philadelphia Super Bowl rematch, and we do 414 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 5: have a couple of plays featured in that game. Jill, Jill, 415 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 5: I need to, Jill, when you give it this analysis, 416 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 5: because it seems kind of obvious. You need to tell 417 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 5: me what you gotta give me the scenario as to 418 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 5: why this won't happen. What is it? 419 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 4: Okay, Well, the bet is Jalen hurts for an any 420 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 4: time touchdown, and why it won't happen is he gets hurt. 421 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 4: Because if he doesn't get hurt, if they get within 422 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 4: the five yard line, it's almost likely very like to happen. 423 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 4: Rather because he leads the most unstoppable play in the NFL. 424 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 4: So for context, this is around plus one thirty five. 425 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 4: Why I bring that up is because he hasn't been 426 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 4: above plus one oh five all season. And for reference 427 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: as well, these two teams they played in the Super Bowl. 428 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 4: He had minus one ten odds to score in that game. Well, 429 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 4: he rushed for three touchdowns. So and that's the thing 430 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 4: about this offense is that once they get within the 431 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,959 Speaker 4: five yard line, they're pretty predictable because they are so 432 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 4: efficient at what they do. He's got seven touchdowns this year, 433 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 4: seventh in the NFL in red zone carries. All of 434 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 4: his touchdowns have been scored inside the five yard line. 435 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 4: And this Chiefs defense, I think this is the reason 436 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 4: why we're getting a little bit of a premium yere 437 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 4: is because this Chiefs defense has been pretty good against 438 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 4: the run. But over the last four games, teams are 439 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 4: averaging around one hundred and twenty rushing yards per game. 440 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 4: The Broncos ran all over them two touchdown scorers on 441 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 4: the ground, and this running attack in the NFL from 442 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: the Eagles, They're going to likely do everything they can 443 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 4: to keep Mahomes off the field. And I mean, after 444 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 4: what happened in the Super Bowl, they're going to be 445 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 4: foaming at the mouth to be able to just take on. 446 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 4: Like I don't want to, I don't get too much 447 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 4: into this revenge game narrative, but this game does mean 448 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 4: something for the Eagles in this spot to be able 449 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 4: to prove, you know, that they're not this fraudulent NFC 450 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 4: team because of the way that they've won games. So again, 451 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts, They're going to make a statement in this game. 452 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna one hundred percent say that the Eagles 453 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,640 Speaker 4: will win, but I definitely feel that Jalen Hurts anytime 454 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 4: touchdown should be minus ods. So we're getting it at 455 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 4: plus one thirty five, So I think you need. 456 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: To grab it. 457 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 3: Okay. 458 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 5: I stole that from bj Cunningham because we were doing 459 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 5: the Baseball podcast and during the World Series, and he 460 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 5: would say, Brandon, let me tell you how this won't hit, 461 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 5: and he would basically have like one sentence and be like, 462 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 5: and you, you just nailed it unless he gets hurt 463 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 5: or something absurd happens. So that's why I put it 464 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 5: to you like that, because I just don't the way 465 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 5: you explained it. It just doesn't make any sense to me. 466 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 5: While you're getting a really good price. So yeah, go 467 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 5: grab it now if you can. Brandon. Also related to 468 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 5: this game, you have an angle for Chiefs Eagles. 469 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 3: I do, and I came on the pod last week. Joe, 470 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 3: you weren't on, but I I came on with my 471 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 3: first anytime touchdown bet, Austin Ekeler. You helped me with 472 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 3: the odds we hit it. I was four for four 473 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 3: in touchdown bets in the article week. So I'm a 474 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 3: touchdown guy now too, Travis kelce anytime touchdown minus one 475 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 3: point fifteen in that huge Monday night game. So it's 476 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 3: just a great game. It's like it's like the you know, 477 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 3: the amuse boosh before Thanksgiving week. We got this on 478 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 3: Monday Night. It's it's perfect to lead into this awesome 479 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 3: week of sports. See how to have something here? I 480 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 3: think to me in this game, Jill, I think I 481 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 3: like your pick. I think the Chiefs run defense is 482 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 3: the week spot, but with the Eagles it's the pass defense. 483 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: Run defense has been great for Philly. They're second in 484 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 3: the league DVAA, but they're bottom ten against the pass. 485 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 3: They are dead last by DVA against tight ends. Well, 486 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 3: cas who's a pretty good tight end. Yeah, Travis Kelcey. 487 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 3: This is kind of by design for the Eagles, right. 488 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 3: They didn't really go out and bring in linebackers and safeties. 489 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 3: They cheaped out in that area. They did that on purpose. 490 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 3: They want pass rushers, they want the line, they want secondary. 491 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 3: They didn't really do the middle of the field. That's analytics. 492 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 3: It's not gonna work great against Travis Kelcey. Is the 493 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 3: price you pay here. So fantasy wise, their bottom five 494 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 3: against tight ends. Hunter Henry has a touchdown against them, TJ. Hockinson, Logan, Thomas, 495 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 3: Jake Ferguson. Those guys all score touchdowns and Travis Kelsey 496 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 3: is like ten times the player of them. So I 497 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 3: think two one thing I like about both these touchdown bets. 498 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 3: These are guys that have not been healthy Hurts or Kelsey, 499 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 3: and now they're off the bye week. So I think 500 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 3: for Travis Kelcey, this is the healthiest he's been all season. 501 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 3: He's out partying in Argentina. Now he's ready to come back. 502 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: We were ready, ready to go. He had in the 503 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 3: Super Bowl a touchdown plus six catches eighty one yards, 504 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: and I think with the nature of this game, I 505 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 3: have the Chiefs tweet this like a playoff game, and 506 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 3: in a playoff games, Travis Kelcey shows up with huge numbers. 507 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 3: He's had fourteen games in the playoffs with Patrick Mahomes, 508 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: fifteen touchdowns and fourteen games. He's found the end zone 509 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 3: at least once in eleven out of the fourteen game 510 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 3: seventy nine percent. So I think you tweet this game 511 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 3: like that and and the real analysis you want here. 512 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 3: You know, Taylor Swift is gonna be at the game, 513 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 3: her Eagles, her chief It's the Kelsey Bowl. We had 514 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 3: that whole thing of the Super Bowl. Supposedly some TMZ 515 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 3: reporting for you. Taylor's parents are going to be there, 516 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: so the Swifts and the Kelsey's are meeting for the 517 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: first time. Come on, he's not gonna find the end 518 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 3: zone of that game. Karma is the guy, and the 519 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 3: Chiefs scoring touchdowns for me. Travis Kelcey minus one fifteen. 520 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: I absolutely love Taylor Swift and Kelsey like I'm one 521 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,199 Speaker 1: of the suckers. 522 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 2: That is just like all about the ideots. 523 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 5: No, sorry, when you said like the dancers, she said that. 524 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 5: Frend Anderson said that on the podcast. 525 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 4: Wow, I was gonna bring up a point about Brandon's 526 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 4: pick here because you mentioned about how Kelsey, if they're 527 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 4: going to treat this like a playoff game, how efficient 528 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 4: ca Elsey has been in the playoffs. Well, if you 529 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 4: go through those same game logs. This is part of 530 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 4: the reason why I took this. Last year in the 531 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 4: Super Bowl, I took Travis Kelcey for the first touchdown, 532 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 4: it was around plus three to fifty, but first team touchdown, 533 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 4: and you can get it around plus three hundred plus 534 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 4: three fifty. It's probably going to be in that range 535 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 4: again this game. And if you go back and look 536 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 4: through all those playoff game logs since twenty twenty one, 537 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 4: guess who scored the first Chiefs touchdown in almost all 538 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 4: of them. 539 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 5: Kelsey. 540 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 4: So just looking if you're looking to find a little 541 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 4: bit more of a spicy angle to that instead of 542 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 4: taking minus one fifteen, but again minus one fifteen pretty 543 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: solid odds for Kelsey in this matchup. 544 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, well we'll take the minus one to fifteen and 545 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 3: get get on the wins here for our pod. But 546 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 3: I don't mind the first touchdown. But I know you 547 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 3: hit that one. That's been a good angle on the playoffs. 548 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 3: So that's a good one to spice up the odds 549 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 3: a little bit. 550 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: Three like an escalator safe hard just taking to score 551 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: any time touchdown first half for those odds. 552 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 4: Yep, you could do that too. 553 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 3: Yep. 554 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 5: Plus one seventy five I'm seeing and first team touchdown 555 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 5: scorer in that plus two hundred range plus two to 556 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 5: twenty range. Excuse me? 557 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 3: Wow, okay, premium, all right. 558 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 5: I just got blindsided by this Taylor Swift thing that 559 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 5: I forgot. Who's next? Luke, You're next? I think Luke 560 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 5: has a side for us. We're moving off of this game, 561 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 5: We're backtracking a bit. What do you got? 562 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go it's it's pretty gross, but I'm gonna 563 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: go with the Browns currently, I would say money line, 564 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: which is probably minus one fifteen. Really, this is just 565 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: one that like this Steelers team, like, there's just nothing 566 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,239 Speaker 1: about them other than their record of being six and 567 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: three that is good. They've been out gained in every 568 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: single game this season, and they just continue to make 569 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: get lucky interceptions or fumbles or whatever it is at 570 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: the end of games that they somehow cover every time 571 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: and or pick them off off of tips or just 572 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: getting extremely lucky and winning games. And yes, DeShawn is out, 573 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: which is why we're honestly betting hit or else I 574 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't be laying the Browns that I think they were 575 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: like minus three and a half with DeShawn, but with 576 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: him out, the line came down just too much for me. 577 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: And then a Browns defense that is probably is like 578 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: at least they're the best. They're just smothering teams in 579 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: a divisional game. That we've said in this podcast multiple times, 580 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: just take the underdog every single time and you're probably 581 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: gonna come out ahead with this division this Browns team, 582 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: if they get to an underdog, great, I think it's 583 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: worth waiting. But DTR definitely better than PJ. 584 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 2: Walker. But when they did at PJ. 585 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: Walker, like they were keeping every single game close with 586 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: this defense, and there's nothing about the Steelers offense that 587 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: scares me that they can win at margin or even 588 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: win in the one game DTR did play, it was awful, 589 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: but he totally just got thrown into the fire against 590 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: the Ravens defense that is elite or Deshaun. I think 591 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: it was like the Saturday Deshaun got ruled out and 592 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a rookie quarterback was playing off 593 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: of twenty four hours notice, so they drafted him for 594 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: a reason. He looks pretty good in preseason. I think 595 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 1: DTR is definitely an upgrade over PJ. 596 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 2: Walker. 597 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: Just getting a Browns team that is better than the 598 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 1: Steelers team. Basically money line plus one whenever it is, 599 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: it's just an easy bet. Taking a backup quarterback that 600 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: we talked about usually creates a value on the team 601 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 1: that he's playing for in this first start. 602 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 5: Okay, very good. Is there a way where so seeing 603 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 5: one and a half out there, is it better to 604 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 5: get this now or wait? Do you or do you 605 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 5: anticipate Brown's money to come in? 606 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: I would say this is probably where it's going to be. Okay, 607 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: I would it's probably maybe weight. 608 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 2: I would say, I. 609 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: Don't think it's gonna go out much. If anything, I 610 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: don't think weight is gonna hurt you. If you want 611 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: to get like the plus ones and then tease those, 612 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: if you're teasing the Browns, it would be worth waiting 613 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 1: for the plus one. 614 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: Great. 615 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 3: Okay, By the way, this game was my hot red 616 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 3: and my look ahead, So I'm just not on it anymore. 617 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 3: I'm in already. We got our bets already, But somehow, 618 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 3: by the luck of the Steelers, apparently I'm holding on 619 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 3: a plus four and a half from from the look 620 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 3: ahead last week on the Steelers. So thank you to 621 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson for getting out of here on that we 622 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 3: had a plus one eighty on the money line, and 623 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 3: then on Sunday night we grabbed the hot read. I 624 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 3: took the under thirty eight and a half. The total 625 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 3: is like thirty two and a half at some books 626 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 3: right now, like it is. I don't know. I gotta 627 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 3: check bat labs. I don't know if that's the lowest 628 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 3: total that we've had since like a decade or something. 629 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 3: It's just so well. So, yeah, I had. 630 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 5: The Arctic We had the Arctic blast week last year 631 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 5: right before Christmas. 632 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. True. So I'm just gonna just ride the CLV. 633 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 3: I you could try to middle here, just in case 634 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 3: you're wondering on the hot reads and look ahead. I 635 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 3: don't want to get too cute on it. We're in 636 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 3: a great spot with CLV. We did not earn it, 637 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 3: we locked into it. Sometimes we're gonna go the other way. 638 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 3: We'll get the injury on the wrong side. So I'll 639 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 3: sit on the Steelers in the under, and I'm happy 640 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 3: with the side. But I think with where the line's 641 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 3: at now, I don't mind the lookpeck either here. So 642 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 3: just want to comment on folks looking at the look 643 00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 3: ahead of hot read spots. 644 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 5: Jill we can't get enough of this game, and that's 645 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 5: why you want to bet a touchdown in this one. 646 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 5: A touchdown score. 647 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 648 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 4: So that Brown's Saints game, that Arcticle you were talking about, 649 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 4: that closed at thirty two and a half as well, 650 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 4: So right now we're gunning for the top spot here. 651 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 4: But yeah, the total in this game continues to drop, 652 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 4: so you would think, don't bet touchdown scores in this game, 653 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 4: and I'm actually going the other way. I'm going to 654 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 4: bet a touchdown score in this game, and I'm betting 655 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 4: Kareem Hunt to score another touchdown at plus two seventy five. Okay, So, 656 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 4: Dory Thompson Robinson, I'm glad Luke brought that up about 657 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 4: the late change because we look at that game and 658 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 4: you think, okay, well he's just a trash quarterback. It's like, okay, 659 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: you had ten hours to decide if you're going to 660 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 4: start him, so it probably wasn't going to work out. 661 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 4: But these low totals again, being at thirty three points 662 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 4: are thirty two and a half, doesn't really matter when 663 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 4: it comes to Hunt six touchdowns in the last five games, 664 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 4: and Deshaun Watson, he only played him one of those 665 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 4: so you can't really just say, well, the quarterback is 666 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,959 Speaker 4: the reason why we're at this spot, because PJ. Walker 667 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 4: DTR doesn't really matter if it's Watson. And one of 668 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 4: the things that's important about that about him scoring in 669 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 4: that stretch is each one of these games had totals 670 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 4: less than forty, So you could be scared off from 671 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 4: the touchdown if you want, but they're happening, especially against 672 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 4: some pretty strong defense. It's like last like the Ravens 673 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 4: are top ten in DVOWA versus running backs. Kareem Hunt 674 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 4: was right out there during the red zone trips and 675 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 4: that's why I love Hunts, because they use him in 676 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 4: those trench spots. They let Jerome Ford run between the twenties. 677 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 4: Once they get to the red zone, it's Hunt time 678 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 4: because he's got fourteen red zone carries since coming back 679 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 4: to the Browns and twelve in that last five game stretch. 680 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: Just to put that in perspective, Jerome Ford and Pierre 681 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 4: Strong they have nine combined red zone touches in two 682 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 4: extra games this year. So it's Kareem Hunt show when 683 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 4: they get into the red zone. I know the points 684 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 4: are gonna be hard to come by, but I trust 685 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 4: the Browns to do what the Browns do, and they 686 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 4: lead the NFL and rush attempts per game when they 687 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,959 Speaker 4: get into the red zone. They're not gonna let dtr 688 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 4: throw that ball. It's going to be Kareem Hunt going 689 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 4: for it. And if you're gonna give it to me 690 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 4: at plus two seventy five, give it to me all day. 691 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 5: All right, good deal. Not for that gross game and 692 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 5: enjoy it. 693 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 694 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 5: So, like you said, this goes back to last year's 695 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 5: a Arctic Blast game. He said it was Denver in 696 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 5: New Orleans. Is that you said? 697 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 4: Saints and Browns? 698 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 5: Saints and Browns. Oh, and the Browns are featured. Okay, 699 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 5: very good.

So what I'm 710 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 5: excited about is your look ahead is going to feature 711 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 5: a Thanksgiving game. What do you got? 712 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 3: You gotta do a Thanksgiving game? Look, I'll probably just 713 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 3: be back on this one on the podcast for Best 714 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 3: Bets next week. Also because I love some of these 715 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving trends. First game of the day Thanksgiving, We're all 716 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 3: ready for some football. Give me the Lions Lions minus 717 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 3: seven and a half home on Thanksgiving against the Packers. 718 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 3: Guess what the last time was that the Lions were 719 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 3: favored by seven and a half or more. I don't know, 720 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 3: because it's not in our system. It's goes so far back, 721 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 3: like the Lions are never this good, They're never this 722 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 3: huge of a favorite against the Packers. Of public is 723 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 3: gonna be all over this one, betting on the good, 724 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 3: the good Lions team we finally have after all these years. 725 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 3: The Lions are better. They're just better. They're top ten running, passing, offense, defense, everything, 726 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 3: bet dv Away. Packers are bottom ten at three of 727 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 3: those four things. The Packers lost to the Lions in 728 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: Lambeau in September by fourteen points. I was on the 729 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 3: wrong side of that one. I'll be on the right 730 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 3: side of this one. The lines are just the way 731 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 3: better team. Five of their seven wins are by twelve 732 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: or more points. They're a great first half team where 733 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 3: the Packers aren't scoring. So I think this is you know, 734 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 3: we love our Thanksgiving football, but I think this ends 735 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 3: up shaping up a lot like some of the Cowboys 736 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,439 Speaker 3: games we often watch, where it's like, all right, thanks 737 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 3: for the easy match. We got a big early lead. 738 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 3: We like someone will be the Ezekiel Elliott, like eating 739 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 3: a turkey leg in the Salvation Army. Bakay, Like that's 740 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 3: the Lions game here. So we'll do the Thanksgiving trends again. 741 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 3: I'm sure next week you're gonna hear a lot of these, 742 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 3: but just a few notes here. Lions have covered eight 743 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 3: of their last eleven Thanksgiving games, and they are four 744 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 3: to no perfect against the spread as favorites in our system, 745 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 3: which covers the last two decades of Thanksgiving games and 746 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving favorites. This is the way to go. You want 747 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 3: the big favorites, and you want the public teams on 748 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving favorites of seven or more seventeen and six against 749 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 3: the spread seventy four percent on Thanksgiving. And I said, 750 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 3: seeing about Dallas a bit ago, but if you just 751 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 3: exclude Dallas, non Dallas favorites on Thanksgiving, twenty nine to 752 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 3: nine ats seventy six percent. So we want the Lions here. 753 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if money comes in and this 754 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 3: pushes more towards like double digits, especially after it's some 755 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 3: positive results this weekend. So give me the Lions seven 756 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 3: and a half. And I think this one rises and 757 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 3: we you know, cash early, but before even I don't 758 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,240 Speaker 3: know what time you all eat dinner, but dinner will 759 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 3: not even be on the table by the time we're 760 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 3: already count our money on Thanksgiving. On this one for me? 761 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 5: Could I say to you, though, like the Packers get 762 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 5: the Chargers this week is there? This is kind of 763 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 5: it for Jordan Love because then, like you said, they 764 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 5: get the Lions Thanksgiving, then they play the chiefs. If 765 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 5: Jordan Love is going to prove any sort of warth 766 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 5: to this Packers organization beyond next year. Even if they 767 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 5: don't win the game against the Chargers. What kind of 768 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 5: game script or what kind of result are you expecting 769 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,240 Speaker 5: in Packers Chargers. 770 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's always part of it with these 771 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 3: look aheads. The Lions are home against the Bears. I 772 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,320 Speaker 3: believe they're playing the Bear. I think it's in Detroit, 773 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 3: so that certainly should shape up well for them. I 774 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 3: don't love the Packers against the Chargers. It's a it's 775 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: a tough line to bet just because the Chargers. So 776 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 3: whoever knows what's happening with them, So I think, you know, like, 777 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, I'll be in on a side on 778 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 3: that one. But I'm not exactly expecting Love to suddenly 779 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 3: like look like he's been the franchise answer. So I 780 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 3: don't know. I haven't been that impressed with him. He 781 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 3: just he's not accurate. He never has been any level. 782 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 3: He's throwing interceptions, he's putting balls up for grabs early 783 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 3: in the season. I talk myself into it, Matt Leafleur 784 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 3: is giving him a lot of chances to just like 785 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 3: yolo it down the field and get some like high 786 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,959 Speaker 3: EPA plays that did hit, So I think that's there, 787 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 3: like that's the arm talent, but his decision making is 788 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 3: reading the field, and his accuracy just hasn't really been impressive. 789 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 3: So this to me, we we accidentally, like Lyon's Packers 790 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving. For years, you'd have been like, oh, easy, 791 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 3: take the Packers, and suddenly it's like we flipped roles. 792 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 3: It's freaky Friday on things Giving. It's like one of 793 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 3: these teams just isn't good at all, and one of 794 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 3: them is, I think, has a good chance to be 795 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 3: the NFC one seed. So just keep it easy and 796 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:08,959 Speaker 3: take the good team. 797 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, I hear you. I guess I'm only pushing back because, like, 798 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 5: what if Green Bay does win at home against a 799 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 5: defense that's talented but not that very good, and maybe 800 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 5: you get inside of touchdown as opposed to lay in 801 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 5: the extra half point. 802 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 3: Now that's my only possible it's a good point. Normally 803 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 3: I would not take a seven and a half here 804 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 3: for exactly that reason. You hope it flips to the 805 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 3: other side. But I think the fact that the Lions 806 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 3: are facing the Bears also, and that like, even if 807 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 3: that stays close, you know, the Bears often keep that 808 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 3: one close, but the Lions are almost certainly not going 809 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 3: to lose that game, So I just think Detroit is 810 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 3: still a bit undervalued. They came out of the bye 811 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 3: week last week and just throttled the Chargers defense and 812 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 3: put up tons of offense, and I just think that 813 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 3: the Lions are going to keep rolling Packers' defense here. Honestly, 814 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 3: I don't mind it at seven and a half, at 815 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 3: nine and a half, whatever, So I'm not really too 816 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 3: worried to get under a key number here, just because 817 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 3: I think Detroit's that much better. So that's the reason 818 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 3: to not wait and grab it in case it does 819 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 3: rise instead. 820 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 5: Okay, fair enough, very good. That's gonna do it. For 821 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 5: this week's NFL Best Bets episode NFL Week eleven Best 822 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 5: Bets Here on the Action Network podcast we are presented 823 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 5: by Bett MGM.
