We'll 6 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: join us in about ten minutes for our week seven 7 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: NFL lines. What a screwy week of NFL lines. Three 8 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: teams favored by twelve or more. It feels almost like 9 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: a college Saturday. First though, it's time for fake questions, 10 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: real answers. I got things I want to talk about. 11 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to wait for you to ask me. 12 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: Dear Colin, what's the story of the year that's not 13 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: being reported in the NFL. I'll tell you what it is. 14 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: That urban Meyer in terms of football, is doing a 15 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: really good job. There is a reason and Jacksonville had 16 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: the number one pick. They were terrible and won a 17 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: single game last year with an NFL coach Doug Marrone. 18 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: The media is being unfair and unwilling to give urban 19 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,559 Speaker 1: Meyer a fair shake on the football side. I've got 20 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: no problem with the criticisms of his personal life, but 21 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: Greg Cosell admitted to me this week forty two years 22 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: at NFL Films, that Urban and his staff are doing 23 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: an excellent job with Trevor Lawrence, and he continues week 24 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: after week to get better, and that they are putting 25 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: him in positions to succeed. By the way take away 26 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: week one for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Urban's first professional game. 27 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: In Week two, fought and lost the Broncos competitive game 28 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: twenty three thirteen. In Week three, they led the Arizona 29 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: Cardinals thirteen to seven and a half before losing a 30 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: competitive game. Four, they led the Cincinnati Bengals at half 31 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: before losing twenty four to twenty one. The Bengals are 32 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: pretty good. They lost a competitive game to the Titans. 33 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: They then go to a neutral field and beat Brian 34 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: Flores and the Miami Dolphins. Four of the six teams 35 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: they faced are five hundred or better. They're one and 36 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: one against bad teams, and gave the Arizona Cardinals one 37 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: of their stiffest game so far. You don't have to 38 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: like Urban. Be fair with Urban the football part. He's 39 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: actually been just fine. Dear Colin, Why do you think 40 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: everybody seems so hurt when you say TWA isn't a 41 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback? It's a good question, and you get the 42 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: sense in Miami that it's very personal. Well, the league 43 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: has become such a quarterback dependent league. The entire success 44 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: of your franchise revolves around the quarterback. You either are 45 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: a half or a have not. And currently in the 46 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: NFL there are twelve halves, the twelve teams with the 47 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: best quarterbacks, and then twenty half knots, and that's the Dolphins. 48 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: And so it's easier to bitch about the GM and 49 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: the coach because they're replaceable than it is to find 50 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: a star quarterback. But by pursuing Deshaun Watson aggressively, which 51 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: all the reports indicate, and by not naming him a captain, 52 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: who is not the answer, Miami fans get it right, 53 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: stop trying to be right and hold on and double 54 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: down on a losing proposition. Two is not the guy. 55 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: Dear Colin, if you were Ben Simmons agent, what would 56 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: you say to him? Now? I would refuse to be 57 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: his agent. I refuse to represent somebody who doesn't care. 58 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: I think the one thing you can't overcome as a 59 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: boss with employees is indifference. Ben Simmons simply doesn't care. 60 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: If you go of the early scouting reports which are 61 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: finding their way to the Internet. Now, this was a 62 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: concern by scouts very early on. Ben only was willing 63 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: to play a certain way, and that way was if 64 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: he was in control and it was his team. But 65 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: the NBA's is scoring league and he can't shoot. So 66 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: that's what I've said about Darryl Morey the Sixers GM. 67 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 1: I would be less inclined to worry about winning a trade, 68 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: more inclined to getting him out of the building. Dear Colin, 69 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: your good old friend Jim Harbaugh is six and oh 70 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: this year. Are you buying the hype? Well, I'm buying 71 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: that Jim Harbaugh finally looked in the mirror, had some 72 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: self awareness, and hired different coaches. They do not have 73 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: a dynamic offense. They're tied for thirty ninth in total 74 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 1: yards per game Ohio States number one. They're one hundred 75 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: and third in passing yards per game. But despite the 76 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: fact that cade Namara's only completing sixty his passes and 77 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: only has five passing touchdowns, I think the bigger story 78 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: is they are a more physical team. They're running the 79 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: football with success. Their number six in the nation in 80 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: running and I think that's what Michigan and most cold 81 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 1: weather programs have to be. Similarly with Notre Dame, Brian 82 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: Kelly made a pivot about three years ago, and this 83 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: is something I've talked about with coaches. When you are 84 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: a northern program, you're not going to have Alabama, Georgia, LSU, 85 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: Florida's depth of wide receiver and running back talent, but 86 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: you can dominate offensive line recruiting. You can be a 87 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: running team, a power team, and that's what Notre Dame 88 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: has become, and they can go toe to toe now 89 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: with Georgia. I think Jim Harbaugh stole a page from 90 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. We are what we probably were at our 91 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: best in the seventies, eighties, and nineties, Michigan power football, 92 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: and I love to see it. Dear Colin. People are 93 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: wondering when Russell Westbrook will start jelling with the Lakers. 94 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,559 Speaker 1: Why is this a waste of time? Great question, because 95 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: Westbrook doesn't gel with anybody. He's never jelled with a 96 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: single teammate. He's not going to make this team more 97 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: beautiful and artistic. What he's going to provide our minutes, 98 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: energy and passion for an old team to get through 99 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: the season. Sometimes there's only so much you can get 100 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: out of something, only so many days you can use 101 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: a swimming pool in Alaska. Russell Westbrook doesn't provide chemistry. 102 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: He kills it. But what he provides is passion and 103 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: eighty games a year of energy and for a Laker 104 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: team that is so old that even their bench is old. 105 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: Usually in the NBA, the bench has an old player 106 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: in andre Iguidala, then it's about developing young players. The 107 00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: Lakers bench is Rondo, Carmelo, Anthony and Dwight Howard. It's 108 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: graybeards start to finish. So Westbrook's not gonna make him click. 109 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: He is going to make opponents hustle and spend energy 110 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: guarding him. For that, it's a decent move. All right, 111 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: Let's welcome in, my buddy. We do this every Friday. 112 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: Chad Milman, chief content officer for the Action Network. So 113 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: on the year so far, in the games we've talked 114 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: about on this show, I'm twenty two, twenty six and one. 115 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: Which is poor this week is I feel like I'm 116 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: lost at sea. These are the worst numbers. First of all, 117 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: I have a rule. I don't bet gigantic numbers. This week. 118 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: It's like college football. There's three Bucks favored by twelve 119 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,239 Speaker 1: and a half, Cardinals favored by seventeen and a half. 120 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: That's awful, Rams favored by fifteen and a half. It 121 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: feels like Saturday. So Milman, it's interesting because I feel 122 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: differently about multiple games from the beginning of the week 123 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: because I think some lines have gone in my favor. 124 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: I'll throw one at you. So initially I was leaning 125 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: Baltimore over Cincinnati. But here's why I would take the 126 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,559 Speaker 1: Bengals plus six. Hear me out. I always worry about 127 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: a team that has played back to back to back 128 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: emotional games. And you've got a team that won on 129 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: a sixty some yard field goal, you got a game 130 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: in which Lamar Jackson comes from behind to beat the Colds. 131 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: You get a massive win over the Chargers. I mean, 132 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: I flaw a second half and I look at that 133 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: and I think to myself, Okay, how much can you 134 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: ask of a team emotionally? And I look at the 135 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: Bengals here and I think to myself, the protections a 136 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: little better. They're getting six into division rival. I would 137 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: probably take Cincinnati here, even though you know seven or fewer. 138 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: Generally you would take the superior team at home. But 139 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: I think I like the Bengals and the points sharper 140 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: square that is one hundred percent grade a sharp. You 141 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: kind nailed it on the head with the Bengals, if 142 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: you I mean with the Ravens. Look at the Chiefs, 143 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: there were some there was a fumble that went their way. 144 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: Look at the Lions, they needed a miracle to get 145 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: away with it. Look at the Colts again, really really 146 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: challenging game for them that they pulled out in miraculous fashion. 147 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: Look at the Chargers. They were perfect and it was 148 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: the perfect spot for them against the team that had 149 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: been flawless on third and fourth downs and was due 150 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: for a regression. So you've gotten them either getting the 151 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: ball going their way, karma on their side, or a 152 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: team that was due to sort of play regress back 153 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: to the mean. You don't have those things, and this 154 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: is a Ravens minus three. The Bengals had been playing 155 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: incredibly well, and I don't think this is a jump 156 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: off the Bengals bandwagon situation. You've got a division game 157 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: with a Bengals defense that is significantly better than it's 158 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: getting credit for. They are fifth in this sort of 159 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: fancy and metric called defensive DVOA, which measures a lot 160 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: of different things according to Football Outsiders, which I'm not 161 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: going to get too deep into, but needless to say, 162 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: it's a very advanced analytic against measuring quality of your defense. 163 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: The Bengals are good. They're also very good on running 164 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: plays called it it's called fourth and EPA per play, right, 165 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: which is a very fancy way of saying the defense 166 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: overperforms when opponents are likely to score. They're very good 167 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: against the run, is really all you need to say. 168 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: And this Ravens team, despite Lamar Jackson's heroics, they still 169 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: are a running team. And now they're out without Latavius Murray. 170 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: So I think you're on the right side here. All right, 171 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: what's the Packer line currently? At the Action Network? What 172 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: is your current line? We are seeing the Packers eight. Yeah, 173 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: so you know, earlier in the week, you know, I 174 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: liked Washington, but now I like the Packers at minus eight. 175 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: Being Washington is now rumored to be looking for a quarterback. 176 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke acknowledged this week that he's trying to play 177 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: perfect football because Washington is coaching him out if some 178 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: of us head living because he's making mistakes. So you 179 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: have what I consider to be a fairly restrictive defensive 180 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 1: coach in Ron Rivera saying settle down. I'm not into 181 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: your gamesmanship. And that is not Taylor Heineke's game. They 182 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: were shut out by the Chiefs in the second half. 183 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: The Packers. I think winning in Chicago was impressive. I 184 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: think that's a little harder than you think. You have 185 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: to remember the Chicago team went to Vegas and shut 186 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: down the Raiders. I also think if you look at 187 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: what Green Bay has done this year, they haven't really 188 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: played a great game. They really haven't. They really haven't clicked. 189 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: I think I have a increasingly lost Washington offense, a 190 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: slightly upticking Green Bay football team, big edge quarterback. I 191 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: probably take the Packers here to win and cover despite 192 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: a big fat minus eight. Yeah, this has been the 193 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: most interesting game on the board for professional betters. I 194 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: mentioned this every week, but there's always one game every 195 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: week on my podcast with Simon Hunter Professional Better, in 196 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: which he starts getting calls from his buddies who are 197 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 1: professional betters to either congratulate him from being on the 198 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: right side of a bet of a call and being brilliant, 199 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: or they completely rage against him for a decision that 200 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: he made and talked about it on the podcast this week, 201 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: he went on and on about how much he loves 202 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: the Packers minus nine and a half and the wise 203 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: guys all all hated it. They're on Washington, Washington, Washington. 204 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: They're on Washington so much the line moved from nine 205 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: and a half down to seven and a half, and 206 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: then they started buying back on the Packers. I think 207 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: a minus eight you bet on the Packers. The Washington 208 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: football team defense is terrible. Everyone thought it'd be great, 209 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: but you could argue that it's the really the Washington 210 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 1: football teams secondary that is terrible. And the front four 211 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: is pretty good, but the secondary is so bad. The 212 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are able to get rid of the ball much 213 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: quicker than they have in the past, so they're not 214 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: actually getting to the quarterback. One thing Aaron Rodgers is 215 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: not doing very well that he did incredibly well last 216 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: year that he was awful at for several years prior 217 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: to that. Under pressure in struggling mightily fourth worst under 218 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: pressure this year behind Tua Geno Smith, justin Field. So 219 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: I think at eight the number is right. I think 220 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: if it goes back up to nine and a half, 221 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: you get back on Washington. Are you ready to amp 222 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: up the excitement every college football Saturday this year?

I think LSU 230 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: is a program that's reeling Alabama. I can't see Tennessee's 231 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: defense stopping the Tide. I'll take the Tide minus twenty 232 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: seven and a half and Notre Dame minus six and 233 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: a half at home against USC. Dante Williams against Brian 234 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: Kelly will be a coaching mismatch, all right, Those will 235 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: be three of the ten picks.

A game 269 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: that I think I'd stay away from. I'd probably probably 270 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: take the Falcons minus two and a half at Miami 271 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: because you're not going to have much of a crowd. 272 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: The TUA Deshaun Watson rumors could dislodge the Dolphins locker room. 273 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: The play to me feels like Atlanta here, which, by 274 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: the way, Arthur Smith new coach, Matt Ryan's always been somebody. 275 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: It takes him a season to kind of click with 276 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: this new guy, even with Kyle Shanahan. But I do 277 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: think the Falcon are better offensively today than five weeks ago. 278 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: And I have a if you look at the Miami 279 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: stories and the locker room and the Deshaun Watson stuff, 280 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: you could get a completely disengaged they don't have a 281 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: running game, a completely disengaged team in an empty stadium. 282 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: So I would probably take Atlanta minus two and a 283 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: half sharper square. That would be square in a vacuum. 284 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: This game is a pass, but in a vacuum you 285 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: want to take the Dolphins here. It is a good 286 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: spot for a team that is in it. It needs 287 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,159 Speaker 1: to bounce back. That is devalued because of how they 288 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: played last week against the Jaguars, which is really two 289 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: or three plays that they made mistakes on otherwise they 290 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: should have won that game. The Falcons are getting a 291 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: lot of credit right now because they've been playing better 292 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 1: because Matt Ryan has been playing better because of beating 293 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: the Jets and then playing well but losing to the 294 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: Washington football team that we just talked about, So I 295 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: don't want to give them too much credit as a 296 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: road favorite against a team that before the season started 297 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: we all kind of loved and so to me in 298 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: a vacuum, I look at this and I think I'm 299 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: getting comparable teams and I'm getting the home team as 300 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: the underdog. So I would take the Dolphins. That's set. 301 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: It's a pass because there's so much going on there 302 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: with two. Yeah, I just didn't want to touch it. Yeah, 303 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: I'm just that was me. It was in a pass. Yep, 304 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: there's but there's not a lot of great lines this week, 305 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: so it's time finding five is really really like, I 306 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: had a very hard time finding five games that I 307 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: love this week, So I would take the Giants plus three. 308 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 1: The numbers worked in my favor. So I have a 309 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: general rule that teams that are humiliated, and when somebody 310 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: scores thirty eight straight points on you at home, you 311 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: are humiliated. Desperate humiliated teams almost always play well the 312 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: following week. The Giants are not without talent. What do 313 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: we know about Carolina. We know they don't play well 314 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: from behind. With Sam Darnold, I think you get a 315 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: fairly inspired desperate effort from the Giants. I would take 316 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: the points here. It feels like the right side. Yeah, 317 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: I think Panthers are the right side. And it goes 318 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 1: against what I would normally do, which is betting a 319 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: home dog as a You know, in this scenario against 320 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: the Panther's team that I think got way overvalued in 321 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. But a couple of things 322 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: have come out of Carolina that make me feel better 323 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: about betting them than I otherwise would. Number one Matt 324 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: Rule is now just talking about how much he needs 325 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: to run the ball. Doesn't matter if Christian McCaffrey is 326 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: back there or not. He needs to run the ball. 327 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 1: He knows he needs to keep the ball out of 328 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold's hand. All fine, Like, that's understandable, that makes sense. 329 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: But then you have to look at the matchup, right, 330 00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: Like in all of the matchups, the Carolina defense is 331 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: insanely good. Okay, And here's something I'm I'm cribbing this 332 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: from one of our analysts. His name is Chris Raybun, 333 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: who did the math on this Caroline is past defense. 334 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: Number two on passes to the left, Number two on 335 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: passes to the right, number I'm sorry, number two on 336 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: passes to the center, Number twenty nine. On passes to 337 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: the right, Daniel Jones struggles. He can't throw to the right. 338 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: Like the differences between what he does to the left 339 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 1: and what he does to the right are massive. So 340 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: his biggest weakness is the Panthers defense great of strength. 341 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: It's something that he is not going to be able 342 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: to exploit what the Panthers can't do, which is defending 343 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: on the right side of the field. And now the 344 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: Panthers the past couple of weeks they upgraded their defensive secondary. 345 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: They have three cornerbacks in the top thirty five of 346 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus grades. And then finally, and by the way, 347 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: the Giants are beat up at wide ross. Giants beat 348 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: up wide receiver, Giants are beat up at running back. 349 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: And Andrew Thomas is still out. You and I a 350 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago we talked about how much we 351 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: love the Giants because Andrew Thomas was playing so well. 352 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: He had had this incredible rebound where he wasn't allowing 353 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: any pressure on Daniel Jones. What's happened since Andrew Thomas 354 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: went out, Daniel Jones has looked like Daniel Jones. So 355 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: I don't want to play. I don't want to better 356 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: the Giants when they've got a left tackle who can't 357 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: protect their quarterback, who can't throw to the right, which 358 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: is the one place the Panthers can't defend. All right, 359 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: well you changed my mind. I'm here for that. Well, 360 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: when you bring these sassy metrics at thirty eighth on 361 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: passes to the right, the hell's supposed to do that? 362 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: It is like, it is such a geeky one, like 363 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: I thought, I told myself, as I'm saying it, I'm like, 364 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: I don't even I don't even know if I can 365 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: I can say this without laughing. But like, at the 366 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: end of the day, the math is the math. I'm like, 367 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: you've got to follow it. And that's the difference between 368 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: like people who do this every week and they sort 369 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: of maintain their composure and they think, Okay, I might 370 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: have had a rough week last week. A lot of 371 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: professional betters had a rough week last week. Fessional betters, 372 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: they will tend to bet the underdogs. They will tend 373 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: to fade what the public is doing, and last week 374 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: the public cleaned up because all the favorites one. So 375 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: it's hard to go back to the well the second 376 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: week and make difficult decisions, but it's what we gotta do. 377 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: You know. The Chiefs are interesting, so they're still not 378 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: punting and they're still putting up prodigious offensive numbers. If 379 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: they can clean the turnovers up, it's still the same team. 380 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: They weren't great defensively last year. The Titans come off 381 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: a highly emotional Monday Night win in which, by the way, 382 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: they were outgained out time of possession, they were outplayed 383 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: by Buffalo. Josh Allen slips they win the game. I 384 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: think Tennessee's overvalued here. I take Kansas City to win. 385 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: Buy a touchdown. It's minus five and a half sharper square. 386 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: This to me, is a really challenging game. Tennessee is 387 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: the right side. When the number was at five and 388 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: a half, it's bet down to four and a half, 389 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: and I think it's going to come down even more 390 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: as it gets further down. This is a game I 391 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: would wait, wait and see if you can get a 392 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: better number. Because if you like Kansas City, everything you're 393 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: saying is true. We just talked about regression with the Chargers, right, 394 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: The Chargers were playing out of their minds when it 395 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,959 Speaker 1: came to turnovers. They go against the Ravens, I mean, 396 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: not to turnovers to third and fourth down, they go 397 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: against the Ravens and all of a sudden, they're not 398 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: converting as much and the Ravens win handily. The Chiefs 399 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: have been turning the ball over uncharacteristic, and uncharacterists great 400 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: for Patrick Mahomes especially. That's going to change. So now 401 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: you're getting a Tennessee team off of an emotional win 402 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: a short week, even though they're home underdogs, which is 403 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: not something professional better it's like to do. You have 404 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: to expect that the Chiefs are going to be able 405 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: to score every time they have the ball, because at 406 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,719 Speaker 1: this point, the Titans defensive secondary is just washed, right, 407 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: They're two best players aren't even on the field right now. 408 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: They won't be on the field for the rest of 409 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: the year. The one thing they have going for them 410 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: is Rick Henry is basically going to make it second 411 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: and three every single series for Ryan Tannehill against a 412 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: really bad Chiefs defense. So that's the scary thing, Like 413 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: you're betting that the Chiefs are going to get one 414 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: or two stops and they're going to score on those 415 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 1: one or two stops. They kind of have to play 416 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: the most perfect game they've played this year. Eagles plus 417 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: three at the Raiders, Eagles off a bye extra time. 418 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's going to help Nick Seriani. The 419 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,479 Speaker 1: Raiders I thought were shockingly impressive at Denver. They had 420 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: seven plus passes over twenty yards, which is the most 421 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: any team has had in the league. I like Derek 422 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: Carr much more than everybody else. You know, Gruden's departure 423 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: obviously didn't mean anything for the team. Often teams that 424 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: get a new coach play very well for the first 425 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I tend to like teams with a buy. 426 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 1: I do think Jalen Hurts is a playmaker. I think 427 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: if you haven't faced him, he's difficult. I don't think 428 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: he's very good. But at this point I think young quarterbacks. 429 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: I've said this about Kyler Murray, I've said it about 430 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. While you learn the pocket, can you buy 431 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: two years of playmaking with your feet? If you can? 432 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 1: It takes about end of second year. We saw Kyder 433 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: Murray last his second year. Mid season, he became a 434 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: better quarterback this year, missus far fewer layups. Jalen Hurts 435 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: is in the process. He's going to make plays with 436 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: his feet until he learns and understands and wrap his 437 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: head around the complexities of the pocket. I think he's dangerous. 438 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: I don't love watching him throw. I didn't like watching 439 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: Lamar throw for the first year. I'd probably land on 440 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles plus the points here. That's the sheriff's side. 441 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: You will land on the Eagles plus the points here. 442 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: And everything you said is true, and I'll take it 443 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: out sort of ten thousand feet. We're talking about what 444 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: the Eagles can do on the offensive line and what 445 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: the Raiders can't do on the defensive line. And so 446 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: just remember Lane Johnson, who has been out the past 447 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: few weeks, right, he's coming back this week, and the 448 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: Eagles have struggled. Everyone thought after the opening week the 449 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: season the Eagles were going to be amazing because the 450 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: interior of their defensive line is great and their offensive 451 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: line is great, so they were going to control the 452 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage in both scenarios, and that's how you 453 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: win football games. Then Lane Johnson went out and he's 454 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: been out for three weeks and the Eagles have struggled. 455 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: He's coming back this week. He'll be back at right tackle. 456 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: Their right tackle can move to left tackle. All of 457 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: a sudden. You have your best tack your best players 458 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: on the offensive line in their best positions, and that 459 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: allows them to control what the Raiders really do well, 460 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: which is rush from the edges right that's kind of 461 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: their strength. So if they're trying to rush from the 462 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: edge and the Eagles are able to control it because 463 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: they have their tackles back in their right positions. And 464 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: the Eagles are number one in explosive run rate partially 465 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: because what Jalen Hurts can do when he's coming out 466 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 1: of the pocket or when he's under pressure, and he 467 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 1: can find the gaps in the offensive line, specifically up 468 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: the middle, because the Raiders like to rush from the edge, 469 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: so you're going to be able to explore some really, 470 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: really huge gaps there. The other thing that I would 471 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: think about is that the Eagles can get a lot 472 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: of pressure up the field with the interior of their 473 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: defensive line. Derek Carr struggling mightily against pressure up the 474 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: middle this season, so I like the Colts initially plus 475 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: the points at the forty nine ers, but now Garoppolo 476 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 1: will play. The Colts suffered another secondary loss this week. 477 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: They lost a second year safety, and I do feel 478 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: like the forty nine ers feel this is the season. 479 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: This feels like the season. I'm going to take San 480 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: Francisco minus the points here. Deebo Samuel remains one of 481 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 1: the most underappreciated skill people in the entire league. They 482 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: get a push on the offensive line, and I feel 483 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: the same way about the Colts. Is the way I 484 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: feel about the Dodgers. I can like a lot about 485 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: your structure, but there are just years you can't get 486 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: a health break. The Colts cannot get a health break. 487 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: I think I take San Francisco miners the points here. Yeah, 488 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: you're right, and that's the side to be on because 489 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: you just mentioned it. T Y Holding gets back last week, 490 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: Paris Campbell plays last week. Carson Wentz looks like a 491 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: world beater because he's got his two best weapons, and 492 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: he's got Jonathan Taylor, who is looking like a legit 493 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: number one fantasy running back when the drafts happened. Starting 494 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: for next season, now, t Y Holding is questionable. Paris 495 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: Campbell isn't playing, and what you've got is a forty 496 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 1: nine Ers team that is seems to be battling injuries 497 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,959 Speaker 1: every year. They just had to buy. So you got 498 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan getting to game plan for a little bit 499 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: more time. He's got Jimmy Garoppolo coming back, and I 500 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: think that actually benefits the Niners. I know there's all 501 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: this talk about his Trey Lance the right guy at 502 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: this time, but he did not. Now he's not the 503 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: right guy now. He's not the right guy now. And 504 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: to his credit, and to Kyle Shanahan's credit, you know, 505 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: I'm a huge Kyle Shanahan fan. To his credit, they 506 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: were in that Cardinals game. There's four or five, you know, 507 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: they miss five, they're one of five on fourth downs 508 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: they make one of those. That's a different game. And 509 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: so this team always knows how to compete. Now they're 510 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: significantly healthier because of the coming off of the bye. 511 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you a couple of stats. I'm 512 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: gonna go deep, deep, deep into the precedent setting stats. 513 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: Let's see how you like these non West Coast teams 514 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: going west for a prime time game. The West Coast 515 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 1: team fifty two twenty nine and six against this. That's right, 516 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: you don't bring that weak shit to the West Coast. 517 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: Don't bring that coast will thump you. I'm gonna go 518 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go like even deeper into the rabbit hole, 519 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: and I'm going to read this. When I'm done reading it, 520 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: I want you, I want you to tell me this 521 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: is like the magic trick we did last week where 522 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: I was so rised. I want you to tell me 523 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: how many games you think cover this scenario, because like 524 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna read it and it's very specific. Right, I'm ready. 525 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: Here we go. The Cults are four and two this 526 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: season against the spread. The Niners are one and four 527 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: since two thousand and three after a Week six okay, 528 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: we're in Week seven. Teams that have covered less than 529 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: thirty percent of the time, So the Niners in this 530 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: scenario versus teams that are better than five hundred against 531 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: the spread, the teams that are under that are covering 532 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: less than thirty percent of the time. In this scenario, 533 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: they win at a seventy one percent clip, they cover 534 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: at a seventy one percent clip. How many games you 535 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: think fit that scenario? Because it's very specific, and how 536 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: many years since two thousand and three fifty triple that 537 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty games. So you have a big 538 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: body of data. There's a big body of data that 539 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: indicates the Niners on the right side here. Now i'd 540 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: have that with sort of all the stuff that we 541 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: talked about. No, I think it's it's a Paris Campbell's 542 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: not very good, but he's a weapon. He had a 543 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: touchdown last week. He's got speed. T Y Hilton does 544 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: as well. Pittman's more of a two, So you lose 545 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: your two burners and good luck. So it's who. By 546 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: the way, I love Pittman. Great hands, doesn't drop anything. 547 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: Great kid more of a two than a one. Really 548 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: good YouTube. We love him on YouTube. We watch this stuff. 549 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, all right, So I don't like I don't 550 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: like big bets. I would say, if I said you 551 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: had to bet one of the big favorites Bucks minus 552 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: twelve and a half hosting the Bears, Cardinals minus seventeen 553 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: and a half hosting the Texans, Rams minus fifteen and 554 00:31:54,960 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: a half hosting the Lions, I actually, I actually would 555 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: take the Lions plus the points if I had to 556 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: that one feels like the right side. It's pretty gross. 557 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: They're all gross. They're they're all really gross. If you 558 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: if you told me I had to take a favorite, 559 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: I would probably take the Bucks minus twelve and a 560 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: half because the one thing we know the Bears can 561 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: do no matter who is playing is run the ball, 562 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: and that happens to be the one thing that the 563 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: Buccaneers are amazing at right because of their interior defensive linemen. 564 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: So I'd probably take the Bucks because if I'm going 565 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: to get Tom Brady and a defense that can stop 566 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: the one thing the opponent is good at, that's that's 567 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do. I don't disagree with you. If 568 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: I have taken an underdog, I would take the Lions 569 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: just because I have a soft spot for the Lions 570 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: and I think that they just don't give up. You 571 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: could see it last week. They're down you know, got 572 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: what was it like thirty? Yeah, they got down big 573 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: twenty seven or nothing, and like Dan Campbell is still 574 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: calling timeouts with two minutes left down twenty three points, right, 575 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: and so they're gonna find a way to get through 576 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: the back door if it's remotely close. I am not 577 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: going to take the lines. I am not going to 578 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: take the Texans. I'm probably going to take the Bucks. 579 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: But if I had to choose one of the underdogs 580 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: in those three, I would take the lines. This is 581 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: a rough week. In fact, one of my favorite picks 582 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: of the week was ole Miss against LSU. Ole Miss 583 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: minus ten and a half against a reeling LSU program. 584 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: That was on my favorite picks of the week. We'll 585 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: see if I'm right. USC is a six and a 586 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: half point dog at Notre Dame. Brian Kelly coaching mismatch 587 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: over interim Dante Williams felt right. But we'll stick with 588 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: NFL here. Listen, it's it's not a good NFL week. 589 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: There's a lot of crap, you know. It's funny though, 590 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: whenever I say that, you end up knowing you know 591 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. We're gonna get a couple of 592 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: games in the one o'clock window. They're just going to 593 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: be spectacular. It's that dish. This is the way it 594 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: always works. There's always one or two NFL weekends that 595 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: it just looks like drek. But if the Bengals beat 596 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens early game on, then you got a great 597 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: Then you have a great Sunday. But look, I'm like, 598 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: I'm totally looking forward to the Bengals playing the Ravens. 599 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm totally looking forward to the Chiefs playing the Titans. 600 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: I think those are gonna be amazing games. I'm like, 601 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: I think those are great teams, really fun stars in 602 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: each game. Joe Burrow has so much swag. He does 603 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: not go into this game. He does not go into 604 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: Baltimore thinking we can't compete here, like he's going to 605 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: that game thinking I got Jamar Chase. I can do 606 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: anything with this guy. I've got a running game that's 607 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: playing incredibly well. My offensive line is actually playing a 608 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: little bit better than people anticipated. Our defense is really good. 609 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 1: The Ravens are down to their guys walking off the 610 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: street to play running back, Like he's walking in there 611 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: thinking I got a shot here. I love this game. 612 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 1: Anything good in your life right now, anything going on, 613 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: You'll like, I got a lot going on. You can 614 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: appreciate this. You have kids that are in college, and 615 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: my older son's visiting day is coming up, and we 616 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: said to him, hey, should we come up Friday or Saturday. 617 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: He goes, let me think about it. Let me see 618 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: what the plans there. Let me see what's going on 619 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: my friends. He texted us two weeks later. Two weeks 620 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: later text it goes, remember it's Friday, Saturday, Sunday and 621 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: it's in Philadelphia, four hours from our house. Driving, he goes, 622 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: why don't you guys just come up on Sunday. I'm like, dude, 623 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: we'll no. No, It's like he is so little time 624 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: for us. So we've been managing that. Yo. This is hey, 625 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: by the way, this is the way it works. So 626 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: my daughter would travel the world if she could. She 627 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 1: has got I don't know if it's fomo fear and 628 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: misson out or it's just the travel bug loves traveling. 629 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: I try to squeeze in a day every three weeks. Squeek. 630 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: I took our Zion National Park last weekend. I got 631 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 1: a day. Oh it's stunning, Oh Bryce Zion. They can't 632 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: I tell my kids this, I said. There are people 633 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 1: in Kansas who will never see this. There are people 634 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: in the Midwest they have no idea about. Here's the thing. Now, 635 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: because of the Internet, you can go to places that 636 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: you never visit. You can, I mean you can literally 637 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: experience stuff online. Can you imagine before the Internet. People 638 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: in the Midwest who really never knew about these wonders 639 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: of the West. They don't know what Sun Valley is. 640 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: They don't know what Aspen is, they don't know what 641 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: Bryce Canyon, Sedona. Like I told my wife when she's 642 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: a Midwest girl we met in the East. I said, 643 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: the thing I love about the West, there's about a 644 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 1: dozen incredible little ski towns, little mountain towns, canyon towns 645 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: you have unless you live out west or see. My 646 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: mom used to get this magazine called Sunset Magazine. Now 647 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 1: as an East Coast person, it was a West Coast magazine. 648 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: You can look it up. So I had stacked to 649 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: these in my house. So it was like this wonderlust 650 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, I was a reader. When 651 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: I was a kid, my mom made me read a lot, 652 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: so I had these magazines. Google it Sunset Magazine. So 653 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 1: I've always had this thing. I've experienced every single cool 654 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: small town Denver, West and I strongly encourage anybody listening 655 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: if you live in the Midwest, google Sunset Magazine. There 656 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: are so man. I shouldn't even tell people this because 657 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: now you'll crowd the hotels and no, I'll never get 658 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 1: up the walking trails will be all jammed and you'll 659 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: have your buckeye hat on and just fed my life up. 660 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: But I had so much fun with my kids. So 661 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: we used to do this thing every spring break. It 662 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: was me and my wife and our two kids, my 663 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,919 Speaker 1: best friend who lives in San Francisco and his wife 664 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: and their three kids every spring break. It just so happened. 665 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: For five or six years, our spring breaks lined up 666 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 1: would we would rent urvs, we'd meet in some state, 667 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: we'd rent to RVs, and we would just tour that state. 668 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: We did. We did Utah, where we did Bryce and 669 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 1: Arches and all that kind of stuff, and then one 670 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 1: year we did Oregon. One year we did Death Valley, 671 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: and like southern California. One year we did New Mexico 672 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: and like you're talking about small towns and like seeing 673 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: what life is like from an RV, it collent. We 674 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: left so much on those trips. We were so miscast 675 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: as like the people who should be driving RVs through 676 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: Utah or New Mexico or Death Valley or wherever. It 677 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: didn't matter. One day I drove the RV away. I 678 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: forgot to unplug it from the water and the electrical 679 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: and like I was dragging the wires with me and 680 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 1: I had people standing in front of me like stop, stop, stop, 681 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: you're going the wrong way. I'm like, no, what are 682 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: you talking about. They're like, you are dragging your wires. 683 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: You need to stop. And I'm like, oh right, I 684 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: just completely forgot to unplog him. Every day was full 685 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: of folly and comedy that you would never get if 686 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: you did not try a trip like that to those places, 687 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 1: because you can't do that in the East. We actually 688 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 1: tried it. We're like, you know, can we do it 689 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: in like the Appalachian or can we do it in 690 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: Georgia or whatever? Like, can't do it. You can only 691 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 1: do it in the West. By the way, I did 692 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: love Watch Hill, Rhode Island, and Nantucket give props. Portland, 693 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 1: Maine is nice too. There are places out east that 694 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: are wonderful, Asheville, North Carolina. In the south, just the 695 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: west has an abundance of unbelievable either mountain towns, lake towns, 696 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: ski towns, college towns. It's just a and by the way, 697 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: big states, fewer people. There's a lot of stand the West. 698 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: It is like you get New Mexico. We couldn't even 699 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: get radio stations, Like you'd go from one site to 700 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: the next and it would just be desert and it 701 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: would be no radio like you just you know, it's 702 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: like nothing would click.
