00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Seven Home of the Black and Goals Steelers Nation Radio.

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I'm Dale Allie here with

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: Matt Williamson, and as we usually do in seca segment

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: on Friday's, Matt will go through this week's slate of

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 1: games and talk about what we think is gonna happen here,

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: what the what the outcomes will be a little bit

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: and give us a little bit information on each game.

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: Don't forget there's a nine thirty a m. Game this

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: week in London that's on the NFL network. Uh it

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: is the two and one Vikings at the one and

11
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: two Saints Minnesota favored by two and a half. The

12
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: over under forty three in that game, so they don't

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a lot of points scored. I

14
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: wonder totally off top, well, sort of off topic, but

15
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 1: I wonder if, like the overseas games are lower scoring traditionally.

16
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: You're you know, is there any trends that seems like

17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: there's some heavy legs over there? A little bit playing

18
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: situation you mentioned the other day, the jet lag involved.

19
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: Uh No Jameis Winston, no, Michael Thomas, They've already been

20
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: ruled out. I like where Minnesota's at in this game.

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I wish, I keep thinking about what you mentioned.

22
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: I wish for their sake they would have went over

23
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: earlier like New Orleans did. And it's somewhat of a

24
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: must win for New Orleans too, one of threes. Yeah,

25
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they're in it to win it this year.

26
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: But it's gonna be Andy Dalton at quarterback. Um, I

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: would think a lot of Kamara. It sounds like Cooke's

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna play. I think the Bikes are a much better

29
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 1: team right now. Yeah, I think they are as well.

30
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: I think the Saints are a team that maybe we

31
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: overestimated a little bit going into the Sea. Yeah. Yeah,

32
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: I thought they might be the six or seven seed

33
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: in the NFC. I don't see that happening at the

34
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: division because a lot of this team based stuff I

35
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: thought was kind of going to take effect. But and

36
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: and that's all right, something that you know, honestly, if

37
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: you look at it, the team that might be playing

38
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: the best in the division is Atlanta. Atlanta is respectable. Yeah,

39
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: I think they've lost by like a point each game.

40
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: And we'll get to them here in a few minute

41
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: us here, but the big game at one o'clock on CBS,

42
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills at the the Ravens. Both teams to

43
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: him one. Buffalo favored by three on the road. The

44
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: over owner for that game fifty one. Yeah, I mean,

45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: Bills D is quite good. Both these offenses are at

46
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: the top of the league. I think that there's both, um,

47
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 1: very both these quarterbacks are very much in the m

48
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: v P conversation. I just think that the Ravens D

49
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: is a problem. It's a big problem. Yeah. I mean,

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: I think there's one unit that's not like the rest,

51
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: and it's the Ravens D. And I think that's a bad,

52
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: bad matchup. The Bills have allowed a hundred and seventy

53
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: three rushing yards in three games. Now, some of that's

54
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: because their offense is so good and they get up early,

55
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: and but Miami only ran liket eight plays or something.

56
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: But still they get after you a little bit. Um.

57
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: Baltimore is twelve two and one against the spread, and

58
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: the line is between plus three and minus three since

59
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: two thousand. I guess they win close games. They win

60
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: close games. I don't see that happening in this one.

61
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: What is surprise, Well, we'll get to this in in

62
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: a minute. Here. Um, another big game at one o'clock,

63
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: the two and one Jaguars I'm excited about at the

64
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: three and o Eagles Philadelphia favored by six and a half,

65
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: the over under forty five and a half in that game.

66
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: I like the Eagles to win, but I think the

67
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: Jags have a very respectable outing. Keep this within like

68
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: a field goal or so. If you look at all

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: four of those units, both these both those they're both

70
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: like in the top of the league, like top six

71
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: and pretty much every cy The one team has allowed

72
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: fewer rushing yards than the Bills is the Jaguars. Hundred

73
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: and sixty five rushing yards through there, And we saw

74
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: that in the preseason there their front seven is is good,

75
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: is very good. I mean, yeah, remember telling people that

76
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: in the preseason, and you know, you had a bunch

77
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: of first round picks running around and that on that

78
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of a lossiraptors that their first overall type pics, right, yeah,

79
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: so it should be interesting. I mean, but the Eagles

80
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: don't run it necessarily conventionally, No, they don't. And they're

81
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: really good on both lines of scrimmage to Yeah, I

82
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: think the Eagles are an elite team. And that should

83
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: be a real battle in the trenches. It should. I

84
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: think it'll be a very physical The difference I think

85
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,679
Speaker 1: is that I don't think Jacksonville's offensive line is as good. Agreed,

86
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: that's the one. If you're looking at those four units,

87
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 1: that's four. The fourth therefore, and I like Christian Kirk,

88
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: there one weapon of different, you know, like they could

89
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: use the Davante Smith. There one more weapon too. I

90
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: think like it wouldn't shock me if the Jags first

91
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: round picks the receiver this next year. The writers are

92
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: split on this one. Moody Moody's picking this is on ESPN,

93
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: Moody picking the Jaguars for an upset, Walter picking the

94
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: Jaguars or the Eagles one. So both think it's a

95
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: close game. Yeah, so in that situation, they, you know,

96
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: take the take the six and a half points. I

97
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: kind of lean that way too. I mean, I expected

98
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: to be competitive, and I don't think the narrative on

99
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: Monday is same old Jags. They stink, they don't have

100
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: to do and no, I think they're real. Yeah, another

101
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: game with a pair of two and one teams. Here

102
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: at one o'clock, the two and one Bears at the

103
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: two and one Giants. One of these slop teams is

104
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: going to be three and one. They're both really they're

105
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: both bad. Um. We previewed this one to day on

106
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: my podcast. I said, I'll just take the points. I

107
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: didn't pick a winner. I guess I'll take the Giants

108
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: to win. The Giants favored by three. The over unders.

109
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: Just the over under in this game with two two

110
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: and one teams is thirty nine and a half. I mean,

111
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: just think of the receivers in this game. I mean

112
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: it's really really bad. Um, I guess I trust trust

113
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: the Giants a little more. But neither one of these

114
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: same teams is close to being a contender or even

115
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 1: average in my opinion. The Bears have attempted in three

116
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: games forty five passes. That's the fewest of any team

117
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: through three games since the nineteen eighty two Patriots. That's

118
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,720
Speaker 1: a different era, the fifties. That's a completely different era.

119
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: Though two two was that the strike here. I mean

120
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: the football was even a little different. And I mean, like, yeah,

121
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: the Bears are miserable. It's amazing that these teams have

122
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: winning records and one of them gonna be three and one.

123
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: The picts are both for the Giants, Moody picking the

124
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: Giants seventeen four team, which sounds about right. Uh and

125
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 1: Walter Seth Walter picking the Giants twenty to nine. Okay, yeah,

126
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: that's not gonna be high my my watch list. Another

127
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: one a little better stuff. Yeah, all these one o'clock

128
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: games in the NFC East, but East football is kind

129
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: of blood gone done. Hilson yea. Uh. The one and

130
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: two Commanders at the two and one Cowboys, Dallas favored

131
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: by three. The over under is forty one and a half.

132
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: That Washington secondary is awful, awful and if low coverages

133
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 1: and they're not good, their linebackers don't cover well and

134
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: I think Dallas can exploit that even with rush. The

135
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: other thing is, I'm sure you noticed. I mean Carson

136
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Wentz got sacked with eight times last week and Dallas

137
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: of the league it sacks. You know, like, this is

138
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: a terrible, terrible matchup for Washington and it's in Dallas, right, Yeah, yeah,

139
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: I think they get blown out. Three made up blown

140
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: now capable of beating teams like twenty without that. But

141
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: three three games into the season, Washington has allowed five

142
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: passes of forty plus yards in twelve plays overall that

143
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: are forty or more yards. Not only just not giving

144
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: up just big passes, but big runs. That's really terrible.

145
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean that's there are three games. That's being in

146
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: the wrong place and communication errors and things like that.

147
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: It's more than just being you know, not super talented.

148
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, um wow. Moody picking the Commanders to twenty

149
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: uh seth Roller picking the Cowboys nine. I mean, Dallas

150
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: wins this one, which I think we both expect them

151
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: to do. They've weathered the storm pretty well. Yeah. Especially,

152
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: I will say this, the NFC East Games tend to

153
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: favor like the road teams always seem to win in

154
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: the NFC East Games for whatever reason, Like they're all

155
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: rivalry games are all they have all played each other

156
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: for eighty seven years, and they just seem to find

157
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: ways to to make to win in the other team stadium.

158
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: I didn't notice that trend, but I mean, Washington has

159
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: been traveling to Dallas for a bazili. They know exactly

160
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: what they're doing and where to stay and all that

161
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: kind of stuff too. I think they're in trouble on

162
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: this one though. Another one o'clock game, this would be

163
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: the other team or other game involving a a f

164
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: C North team. The two and one Browns at the

165
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: one and two Falcons. Cleveland only favored by one in

166
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: this game. The over unders forty seven and a half.

167
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: This is one of my upset specials. I like what

168
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: Atlantos doing. They're running the football. This is two of

169
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: the two of the best running games in the league.

170
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: Browns are number one, the Falcons are like number six,

171
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 1: and they both these teams would especially Atlanta. They are

172
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: a big offense, extra tight ends on the field, fullbacks

173
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: both their past catchers or human beings, you know. They

174
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: play a really physical brand. I think Mariot is playing fine,

175
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: you know, and I think that's a good coaching staff.

176
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: Like I kind of looked at them last year and said,

177
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: you went seven games with a terrible roster. You were

178
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: just super lucky because you got blown out by all

179
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: the good teams and barely won the other ones. And

180
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: now they're getting more out of what I still think

181
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: a bad roster. Um. I assume Myles Garrett doesn't play

182
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: in this one, or that's they They had five starters

183
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: missing practices this week and that doesn't that doesn't include

184
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: Anthony Walker who went on I R. So they're down

185
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: six defensive starters potentially in this game, and even if

186
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: those guys play, they're nowhere near they're vulnerable. Yeah, I'm

187
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: still gonna take the Browns. I'm shocked this isn't a

188
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: field goal game, but this is a a good upset

189
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: special by you. I mean, I could absolutely see Atlanta

190
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: control in this game. I just think the Browns running

191
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: game is going to be a real problem for Atlanta. Um. Yeah,

192
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: Moody picking the Browns three, Walter picking the Falcons seventeen.

193
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: I could absolutely see that path you can run on

194
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: the Browns. I wish. I wish Cordial Patterson was healthy

195
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: though too. He's questionable as it's as it stands, he's

196
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: been good. Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if they're just

197
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: like getting ready for game day. Oh no, he might

198
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: play still. Yeah. Uh. The FPI prediction on that one

199
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 1: was actually Atlanta fifty point one percent of the games,

200
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: but an average of point one points, so it's really

201
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: really tight. Yeah. Uh. The one o'clock game, of course,

202
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: these Jets and Steelers. Steelers favored by three and a half,

203
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: the over under forty one and a half in that game.

204
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: We've talked a lot about that, both writers picking the Steelers,

205
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: I believe by a healthy margin. Yeah at Lisa at

206
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: Lisa touchdown on both ends of that, Uh, Seahawks one

207
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: and two at Lions one and two, No Swift, no St. Brown.

208
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: Are the Lions capable of beating teams handily that they should?

209
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: Yet I'm gonna say yes, I think they win this

210
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: one by a touchdown their favorite by four the over under.

211
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: The Seahawks aren't running the ball particularly effectively this year.

212
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: I think they're flat out bad. Yeah, I mean, I

213
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: just think the Lions are a tier ahead of them.

214
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: The Lions are scoring thirty one point seven points per game,

215
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: that's the second most in the NFL, but they're allowing

216
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: thirty one points per game. I think they're like the

217
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: most fun team to watch in the league right now.

218
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean, they've got fun players and fireworks every time.

219
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: I don't know Seattle is gonna put anywhere close to

220
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: thirty up though. Yeah, I think I think this will

221
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: be in the twenties. But I think Seattle is really bad. Yeah.

222
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: If this turns into a shootout, that does not favorite Seattle, No,

223
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: not at all. They can't really play that way. Detroit

224
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: is three and oh against the spread this year and

225
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: fourteen and six against the spread under Dan Campbell, so

226
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: they've been better than public thinks they are. Yeah, that

227
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: makes sense. Both writers picking the Lions, Moody picking thirt

228
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: Walter picking thirty to fifteen. No, I think they win

229
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: by a touchdowner. So this is a big game in

230
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: the a f C. And another one one o'clock the

231
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: Titans one and two. It's a game at the Colts

232
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: one one and one. Yeah, I think it's a Colts

233
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: favorite by three and a half. And then it's the

234
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: over unders forty three. I don't know if you agree

235
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: with me, but I I look at it as a

236
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: huge game now. But I think we'll look back on

237
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: it and say neither one of these teams is very good.

238
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: The Jags are clearly the best team in that division,

239
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: and these two aren't even in the playoff hunt. So

240
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: this game isn't a big game, but it is now

241
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: because everyone thinks they're the favorites. Coltst is pretty good.

242
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: I think it's real good. I don't know that any

243
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: other unit out there is. Yeah, I mean I would

244
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: probably just take the points, but I think the Colts win.

245
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's turned the ball over six times in three games.

246
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: Just bad. Yeah, he's at that point in his career.

247
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: And this happens to older quarterbacks. Whenever they get hit,

248
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 1: they just lose the ball. Yeah yeah, yeah, Yeah, they're

249
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: just not as sturdy as you. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And

250
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: that's the case Atlanta to a little bit. And uh,

251
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill. They talk about him here in this in this, well,

252
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: he's thrown just three interceptions through three games. Well, if

253
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: you throw an interception every game, you have seventeen interceptions,

254
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: that's not very good. Yeah, le me ask any NFL quarterback. Oh,

255
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: it's happy, only threw one pick. No, that's that's not

256
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: how it works. Yeah. Ryan has been sacked twelve times,

257
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: which is the fourth most in the NFL. And they

258
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: don't have many weapons. Um yeah, it's just it's not good.

259
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: As do both writers um Moody picking the Colts four,

260
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:41,479
Speaker 1: Walter picking the Colts twenty to seventeen. Eight straight Indianapolis

261
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: games have gone under the total, including all three games

262
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: this season. M they're not the offensive they're not the

263
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: offensive juggernaut that everybody thinks. And they want to run

264
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: the football football. I think they play slow and I

265
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of players either. You know that

266
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: makes some sense? Uh, Chargers two and one at Texans

267
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: two and one. Chargers favored by five. The over under

268
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,199
Speaker 1: is fort last I saw it. Sounds like Keenan Allen

269
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: and Lindsley probably will play BOSSA and Slater will not. Um.

270
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 1: I think another week of rest for Herbert and his

271
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: injuries will go a long way. I think they wiped

272
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: the floor with them, that's all said and done. They

273
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: just have a lot better players. UM. Austin Ekeler, he

274
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: needs to get back on track. The only running back

275
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now currently who leads his team

276
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: in targets and receptions. He has twenty one catches and

277
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: twenty two targets. But he's not running the football, so

278
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: they don't. They can't run the ball at all, and

279
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: I can't imagine that gets better without their starting left

280
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: tackle right. I mean, center might come back, which would

281
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: help a little, But I don't know how dedicated they've

282
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: been to it. But I think they are like forty

283
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: five or forty eight yards per game. It's really bad.

284
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: Like one in the league. The Chargers are oh and

285
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: three outright as a road favorite under Brandon Staley. I

286
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: have some questions about because I don't think he's very good. Yes,

287
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: and more than just the fourth DOWND stuff too, But

288
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: both writers picking the Chargers in this one. Moody says

289
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: thirty one twenty, Walter says Davis Mills not playing well.

290
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: Houston be your thirty second team. The Bears are still

291
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: out there. I don't care what their record is. Texans

292
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: have a tie. Texans have a tie. Uh, this is this?

293
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: This one game was kind of surprising to me. It's

294
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: a four o'clock game, the one in two Cardinals at

295
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: the one and two Panthers. I want to bet against

296
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: both of them. Carolina is favored by a point, the

297
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: over unders forty three and a half. And I know

298
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: it's a cross country road trip, but it's a four

299
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: o'clock start, and I think that helps Arizona. Again, I

300
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: kind of want to bet it against both. I don't

301
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: have a lot of faith or respect for either coaching staff.

302
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: I just think Kyler makes plays. Baker Mayfield's completing fifty

303
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: one nine percent of his passes, and they have weapons,

304
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: and they have weapons. D J. Moore is useless in fantasy. Um,

305
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: McCaffrey is getting used well but not producing. You know,

306
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: it's not like they're short onmed weapons. You are right,

307
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: I bet Kyler just is the best player on the

308
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: field and win this game. Yeah, Arizona has won seven

309
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: straight games outright as a road underdog. Really interesting, the

310
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: longest such streaks since, the longest such streaks since the

311
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: seventy a f L NFL merger. So winning on the

312
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: road as a dog is Moody picking the Cardinals seventeen,

313
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Walter picking the Cardinals fourteen for a one point spread,

314
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: them beating them pretty easily handled. They're a much better

315
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: team than the Panthers and they're not even a very

316
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: and they're the Panthers might be in the running to

317
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: be that. I was thinking that too. It's considering. The

318
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,119
Speaker 1: question is to ask you, right, I'm sure when CBS

319
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: claimed this game is the It's game of the week,

320
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: he thought this was gonna be a much bigger deal.

321
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: The one and two Patriots at the two and one Packers,

322
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: green A favored by nine and a half and the

323
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: over under is just forty. No faith whatsoever in that

324
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: New England offense. I think lawyers like twelve in his

325
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: last YEA. They were struggling offensively with Mac Jones. I

326
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: don't imagine that it's gonna look much better with with

327
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer. I don't know if I saw this correctly,

328
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: so maybe I'm making it up, but I thought I

329
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: saw a blurb on my phone as we were walking

330
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: into mac Jones practice today like that sounds not true

331
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: at all. But I don't think he's playing. Um, I

332
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: just don't know that. I mean, the Patriots are one

333
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: of those teams, to go back to our practice stuff,

334
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: the Patriots are one of those teams that only lets

335
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 1: reporters out there during the team stretch, So he could

336
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 1: have been out there during the team stretch. You know,

337
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that he's gonna practice, right. I probably

338
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: shouldn't even mention it because there's no chance he plays. Um.

339
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: I just don't know if the Packers are a beach

340
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: of by ten type of team. You know, as as

341
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: they're constructed, you know, you know Rogers isn't gonna screw

342
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: anything up. Um. I know you guys do your your

343
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: bold predictions. I did one yesterday at this game, saying

344
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: Packers were the worst special teams in the League last year,

345
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: and New England is always good on teams. Maybe they

346
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: get a score or something there and make that make

347
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: it seem like a closer game than it is. But

348
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: I think green Bay controls this thing. Uh. Green Bay

349
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: is seventeen and the seven against the spread is a

350
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: home favorite under Matt la Floor, including seven and one

351
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: against the spread since the started last season, So I

352
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: guess every one sells them short. Yeah, the Packerten Walter

353
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 1: picking the Packers twenty four nothing shutout, watching the shut

354
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: out green Bay's defense is legit. Oh, I've beta Alexander's

355
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: playing this week, but I don't know if the matters.

356
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 1: They don't even have a number one receiver type guy.

357
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 1: I don't think it's very close. Another four game Broncos

358
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 1: two and one at Raiders, oh and three, the Raiders

359
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 1: favored by two and a half at home. The over

360
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: under forty five and a half to the Raiders. Get

361
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: off the snide this week. To me, that just teams

362
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 1: that Vegas is saying, don't underestimate a truly desperate team

363
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 1: you know that has some talent. They're not the Texans,

364
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: they're not the Giants, you know. I mean the Raiders

365
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: are could still be a five hundred team or at

366
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: least play like it this year. I think I'm gonna

367
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: take Denver in an ugly game because you talk about

368
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: the four units, denverst D is the only one that's good.

369
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 1: Is it good though? Or is it ten? I mean,

370
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: I think the other units are all bottom ten. The

371
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: Baker's offense should be better. The Broncos are averaging four

372
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: teen point three points per game, which is the second

373
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: worst in the NFL. They're not even last. Uh there.

374
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 1: Forty three point total points in their first three games

375
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: are their fewest since two thousand and six. So they've

376
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: actually bed to see hear where they've been worse than this. Um,

377
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 1: they need to run the ball and not let Wilson

378
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: cook or whatever stupid term people you right, Yeah, well

379
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: he got a lot of money to cook, but he's

380
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 1: not worth it not making it good. Um, all three

381
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: ever games have gone under the total by over ten

382
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: points this season. Well, that makes sense. You mentioned the scoring.

383
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: I think their number one and points allowed, and they

384
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 1: don't score any point. I mean all their games are

385
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: ten nine. Moody picking the Broncos seventeen, Walter picking the

386
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: Raiders thirty to nineteen. Think I'll take the Raiders just

387
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: they don't look like an O and four team. Yeah,

388
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: do you really think they're gonna go and four? Plus

389
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 1: the Broncos stole one last week there, two and one.

390
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 1: They're feeling, you know, they're lucky. Run out. Yeah, two

391
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: of one Chiefs at the two and one Buccaneers. That

392
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: is the eight twenty game. It's a pick them game,

393
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: and the spread is now forty five and a half.

394
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: I have some faith that Tampa Bay's offense starts to

395
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: look a little better. I mean, it's been miserable to

396
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: there at the bottom of every list, your every stat

397
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: But if you get Evans engage and there's a chance

398
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: Godwin plays, I bet it starts to look decent. And

399
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: I do believe the Bucks. He's really good. They scored

400
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: three to offensive touchdowns in three games with Tom Brady R.

401
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: I am going to take the Chiefs, but I can

402
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: understand why it's a pick them game. Yeah, Chiefs. I mean,

403
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 1: if if you a race there for their game against

404
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: Arizona in Week one, they haven't done much yet, very mediocre. Yeah,

405
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: they haven't done much either. Um all three Tampa Bay

406
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: games struggling in the league folks. Yeah, all three Tampa

407
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: Bay games have gone under this season. Here's the problem

408
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: I see with the Chiefs are with the Buccaneers. They

409
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: blitz a high percentage. You don't don't blitz. Don't You

410
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: can't blitz Pat Mahomes. You just can't do it. So

411
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: if they if they stick with their personality what they do,

412
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: He's gonna eat them up. Under on Bucks games certainly

413
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: adds up because people think the offense is good and

414
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: it's the worst in the league and the defense is

415
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 1: the best in the league. Yeah, Moody picking the Buccaneer one,

416
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: Walter picking the Chiefs to seventeen. Um, I don't think

417
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are the same without Hill, No, I know

418
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: they're not the same, right Uh. And then the Monday

419
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: night game is the two and one Rams at the

420
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 1: one and two forty Niners. The Rams can really get

421
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 1: some separation there if they If they win this one,

422
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: San Francisco favored by a point the over under his

423
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: forty two and a half. Surprisingly enough, the forty Niners

424
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 1: are not running the ball at all this year. Maybe

425
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: the worst O line in the league right now. With

426
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: Trent Williams out um a lot of replacement players. I

427
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 1: think Donald goes bonkers, but the Rams o line is

428
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: not good either and Bosa and company. I think this

429
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: is a really tight game, and I'm gonna say the

430
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: Rams win it, but I don't feel strong about that

431
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, Deebo Samuel has a hundred and eleven

432
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 1: rushing yards this season. Where would their running game be

433
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: at right now without Deebo Samuel? And I thought the

434
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: whole thing was we're not going to run him as much,

435
00:22:53,960 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: and but it works. Yeah. Moody picking the uh Seth

436
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: Walter picking San Francisco has covered all five meetings since,

437
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: including the playoffs against the Rams, so they they've had

438
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: their numbers. They have had their number. I mean, Shanahan

439
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: McVeigh seems like it should be a an even battle

440
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: of you know, hot young coaches from a couple of

441
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 1: years ago, but the Niners have definitely got the better

442
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: of them over and over. Yeah, it should be an

443
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: interesting week if Baltimore loses, which there their dogs. If

444
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: Cleveland were to lose to Atlanta, which is a toss

445
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: up game, right, the entire ANFC North will be two

446
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: and two if the Steelers win. Yeah, Yeah, and I

447
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: think that's very possible, which we'll be right back at

448
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: ground zero again. What do we learn after a month.

449
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: Not much. Everybody's the same, and that's possible. It's possible.

450
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 1: Win by the Bengals last night for them, I mean

451
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 1: if sitting at one and three would be would be

452
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: pretty bad. Yeah, it would be pretty bad. And I

453
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: thought they were okay. They didn't blow me away. And

454
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: they still don't run the ball. Yeah they stay, they tried. Yeah,

455
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: it looks fine. There's just nowhere to go. Yeah, they don't.

456
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: They're not creating holes and I know everybody will. They

457
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: didn't get you know, they didn't give up any sacks

458
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: last you know, they give up one sack in the game.

459
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: Miami's kind of a blitz your team too, and you know,

460
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's necessarily what you want to

461
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: do against Burrow at this point. Um, you know, you

462
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: gotta beat him with just your four man front and

463
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: you can get there that way. And then I didn't

464
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 1: love the Bengals. D It's fine. There's a tough situation

465
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,719
Speaker 1: Miami was in, especially post to injury. Yeah, I think

466
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: about I think it's two of finishes that game. Miami

467
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: might win. It might win it. Bridgewater wasn't terrible, but

468
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: that is who he is. Yeah, to amaze some throws

469
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,239
Speaker 1: early in that game too. Was impressed me more than

470
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: I thought he would. Scheme helps him and all that stuff,

471
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: and having hill and waddle was an amazing asset. But

472
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 1: he's making plays. Is it to make a difference having

473
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: a left handed quarterback? He's the only left handed co

474
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: starter in the league. It just looks different. It doesn't

475
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: even look like you're looking in a mirror. It looks

476
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: like they're playing a different sport, throwing a different foot

477
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: ball or something that I agree. I agree, And it's

478
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: just like sixteen year olds of the exact same thing.

479
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 1: It just looks funky. It's so weird. Yeah, he's just

480
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: so used to like where all the camera angles set

481
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: up at in stadiums, because they all set up in

482
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: the same place. You're now seeing the back of the

483
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: quarterback instead of the front. It's just it looks just

484
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 1: looks completely off, and it doesn't look like you're looking

485
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 1: in the mirror. You know, like if I'm throwing right

486
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: handed in the mirror, it doesn't look like a lefty quarterback.

487
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: It's just the whole motion's goofy her and I don't

488
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: understand it is not that way. But the thing about

489
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: it is a lot of times when you have a

490
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: left handed quarterback, you spend more money on that right tackle. Yeah, right,

491
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: right right. Interesting, But that's uh, that's this week's slate
