Uh but who cares one the next week? 16 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: I will say last week was one of the craziest 17 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 2: NFL weeks I can remember. I'll summarize a couple of 18 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: stats here. Mahomes was forty six and two when opponents 19 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: didn't reach twenty one points lost Wallace walk off punt 20 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: return for the Ravens never returned to punt in the 21 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 2: NFL before last week. Titans first ever team to be 22 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: down fourteen less than two fifty five to go and 23 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 2: went out right in regulation. NFL team scoring three or 24 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 2: fewer points since two thousand and eight were two fifty 25 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 2: five and two. Before the Vikings, Steelers' first team over 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: five hundred to lose back to back games to teams 27 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: at least eight games under five hundred. Unders had hit 28 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: thirty four straight wins, scoreless at the half before the 29 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: Jets Texans game, I unfortunately had that under the Jets 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 2: get three field goals on negative eight yards after fourth 31 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: down misses and their own charrectory. I was brutal. Zach 32 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: Wilson and Tommy DeVito AFC and NFC players of the 33 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: Week qbs to win a game last week Wilson, Devido, 34 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 2: Lepis Zappi, Browning, Flaco and Mullins. Crazy week capped off. 35 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: I went to Cleveland and I saw Joe Flaka win 36 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: me more money in that stadium playing for the Browns. 37 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 2: Heard all my Browns fans argue over whether Flacco is 38 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: better than Watson. One's making One's a thirty eight year 39 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: old guy they signed off the street for the league 40 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: men the other guy that gave hundreds of millions of 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: dollars too, which is pretty funny. But yeah, we're on 42 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: the next week. But I will say where results do matter. 43 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: You know a lot of people follow me on the 44 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: app and on here. Good week for future. So my 45 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 2: two futures are took the flyer on the Bills fifty 46 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 2: to one. Everything's turning up Bills lately. They aren't even 47 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: in play for the division now, and the Ravens the 48 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: one seed. 49 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: Now. 50 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: It should be a good finish here to the NFL season. 51 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 2: Let's get on to Week fifteen. 52 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: It's like the Witching Hour of the NFL season. It 53 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: starts everything just starts turning around. This time. You always 54 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: see a couple of those crazy upsets playoff five shift 55 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: and so yeah, it's gonna be good. And I don't 56 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: know if the Thursday Night will be good, but we're 57 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it anyway. So let's kick things off 58 00:02:58,560 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: with the Thursday Night football. 59 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: You it's not the best game, but it's the only 60 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: game tonight. 61 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: Let's bet Thursday Night football. So we got the Chargers 62 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: at the Raiders. Raiders favored by three. The total is 63 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: thirty four, and that's because Justin Herbert out for the 64 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: season with a thumb injury. So Easton Stick is gonna 65 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: start at quarterback for the Chargers. And then eight and O'Connell, 66 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,839 Speaker 1: I guess is gonna start, but it sounds like he's 67 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: on a short leash or maybe they'll bench him out 68 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: right before the game. So there's just a lot of 69 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: uncertainty in terms of just what you're gonna get out 70 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: of these quarterbacks. Right now, we have eight and O'Connell, 71 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: who might who might get benched by the time people 72 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: are listening to this. Laying three points when they lost 73 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: three to nothing last week, their defense gave up three 74 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: points and they still couldn't cover. That's just twenty twenty three. 75 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: NFL in a nutshell, really want no part of this. 76 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: I think it's Chargers or nothing because you just got 77 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: to take the points with you know, it's just two 78 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks essentially. But what are your thoughts on this one? 79 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, unbetable game? But Week fifteen Eastern Stick versus if 80 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: i'd guess Brian Hoyer, except they don't want to play 81 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: play Jim Mujiks if he gets hurt, they on eleven million. 82 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 2: If it was three and a half, maybe consider Eastern Stick. 83 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, Week fifteen Eastern Stick Brian Hoyer, Thursday night 84 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 2: game with no playoff implications, absolutely not unbettable. Game. Keep 85 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 2: an eye out for Kerner's props on the action of 86 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 2: our gap. I got nothing here. This game is not 87 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 2: worth talking about in my opinion, but the I will 88 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: say a more interesting discussion because a lot of people 89 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: ask me about this. So MVP market right now, which 90 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 2: to tide to Thursday night? Nobody in the Thursday Night 91 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: game is in the running Presco plus one fifty, Party's 92 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 2: plus one seventy five, and then you have Lamar's plus 93 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 2: six hundred, Hurts is at plus eight hundred, Allen is 94 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 2: plus fourteen hundred, Mahomes is plus sixteen hundred. I think 95 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: two and Tyreek are out of it after Monday night, 96 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 2: so I'll share my thoughts send. I'm pious get years Mahomes. 97 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: They have an easy schedule. They're like ten to one 98 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: to get the one seed. I mean, I think that's 99 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: a better bet than Mahomes sixteen to one. Just bet 100 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 2: the Chiefs to win the one seed. Hurts at eight 101 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 2: to one, no thanks, and they don't. They play a 102 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 2: bunch of clowns two down the stretch. So I think 103 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: it's between Prescott and Party. I think that if Party 104 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: wins out, I actually think Purty should be the favorite. 105 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: So Party wins out, it's gone. The ward's gone to 106 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 2: the quarterback with a one seed for ten years in 107 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: a row. So Party wins out, that means you would 108 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 2: have and everyone's gonna look. Prescott will probably if he 109 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: beats the Bills this week, which I don't think they did. 110 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: Will talk about that later. But if he beats the 111 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: Bills this week, that he's gonna go. He's gonna continue 112 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 2: be the favorite. His odds will probably trickle off because 113 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 2: Party could put up some big numbers, but it's the Cardinals. However, 114 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: Christmas Day in primetime, Purty plays as the Ravens, so 115 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 2: that'll be even. These things usually come out to the 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: last three weeks, so that'll be a huge game against 117 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 2: a really good defense. And if Party wins that game, 118 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 2: and you know forty nine ers get the one seed 119 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: and then he beat Prescott already, I don't know. I 120 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: think Perdy would win it. So I agree that Perty 121 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 2: and Prescott should be the two favorites. I think the 122 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: only two worth considering are Josh Allen, but I would 123 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 2: need like twenty to one or better. He has the 124 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: numbers and if they win out, potentially win the division. 125 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: He's interesting I think it's a four guy race. Allen 126 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 2: is the super long shot that could come from way behind, 127 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: and then Lamar has a chance. Tough schedule, but even 128 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: if he lose to the Jacksonville this week, if he 129 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 2: beats the Dolphins to get the one seed and beats 130 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers at Sant fran But I think 131 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: those are the only guys who could win it right now. 132 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: So what are your thoughts that on the MVP race. 133 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: I agree, I think Perdy and Prescott should be the favorites. 134 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: I do agree that Party should be the favorite. But 135 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: those numbers, I mean, what do you say, plus one 136 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: fifty plus one say are just egregious, so you can't 137 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: really bet those. I think I like Allen a little 138 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 1: bit more than Jackson because you're still getting longer odds 139 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: and the Ravens just have so many different ways to win. 140 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Allen's my favorite because he, like you said, 141 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: he has the numbers, and then you would have this 142 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: crazy story of you know, Alan overcoming the coordinator firing 143 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: and it would be Josh. Allen would be the bet 144 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: for me. But I do think perty is gonna win 145 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: it just for what it's worth. But yeah, let's get 146 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: into the week fifteen Sunday six pack. 147 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: Thirsty for action, Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. 148 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: All right, So congraduations again. Finally got a couple points up, 149 00:07:54,760 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: fifty two fifty. You're in the lead and I'm first 150 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: this week. So I'll start us off with the first 151 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: pick of the week fifteen Sunday six pack. I'm going 152 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: with the Minnesota Vikings plus three and a half at 153 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. And I've talked about this on this pod, 154 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: I've talked about it on our Happy Hour show, and 155 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: this year it's just been backup quarterbacks pitted against each 156 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: other time and time again, and a lot of uncertainty. 157 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: It's tough. It's just tougher to handicap these matchups in general, 158 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: because you know, everyone has their opinion of Okay, this 159 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: quarterback's works this much to the spread and this and that. 160 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's a projection, 161 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: and it's a lot of times based on limited sample 162 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: sizes for the backup and or sample sizes that aren't 163 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: really relevant. Because Nick Mullens has made a lot of 164 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: starts in this week, but most of them were in 165 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: the Shanahan offense, which is kind of completely different. But 166 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: I will say this, you know Jake Brown, now you're 167 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: talking about he's laying not even just three, but three 168 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: and the hook here. This is when I think you 169 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: want to fade these kind of teams and quarterbacks. And 170 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: because Cincinnati could feasibly still win this game and not 171 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: cover if you're getting three in the hook. So love 172 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: the spot here. But I do think that when you 173 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: look at these two teams, you have two backup caliber quarterbacks, 174 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: decent offensive weapons around him. You know, even if Justin 175 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: Jefferson doesn't play for Minnesota, you still have good weapons 176 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: for them. You still have decent left tackle and all 177 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: that good stuff. So when it comes down to me 178 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: for me, is then who's got the better defense? And 179 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: that answer at this point we're now we're in week fifteen, 180 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: I think is clearly Minnesota. It's no longer just oh Man. 181 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: Brian Floreses. You know, he's having a can't believe he 182 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: took like a wee worst defense and made him respectable. 183 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: Like this defense is playing well, and you know they 184 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: took care of business last week, shutting out the Open Raider, 185 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raders excuse me. 186 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: And if an EPA per play on the season though. 187 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was about to say, so, they're sixth in DVOA, 188 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: which of course adjust for strength to schedule, top seven 189 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: against both the run and the past. We're at Cincinnati, 190 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: and you've been on this pretty much from the jump 191 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: of the season, just kind of talking about the Cincinnati 192 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: defense was worrisome and had some concerns and probably wasn't 193 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: gonna get anywhere close to respectability that they you know, 194 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: were at when they made that playoff run a couple 195 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: of years ago. So twenty fifth in DVOA, below average 196 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: against both the pass and the run, and that's a 197 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: nineteen spot difference. Sixth and twenty fifth on defense. I 198 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: don't think even if Brown and browny he looks pretty 199 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 1: solid out there, that probably not as good as the 200 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: numbers because he's had a couple of multiple deflect the 201 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: balls get caught by Chase. He's also had a bunch 202 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: of run after the catch, just explosions by Chase Chase 203 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: and then Chase Brown. So dude's name Chase essentially are 204 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: just kind of yacking it up for him. So that 205 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: tends to regress. And you're also gonna get I think 206 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: the toughest challenge, not only just by the numbers on defense, 207 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: but this Brian Flores defense for a quarterback making his 208 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: fourth start, just so many exotic looks. Usually when you 209 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: get a blitzing defense, you're playing a lot of man 210 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: behind it. Minnesota is doing a lot of zone blitzing, 211 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: and they also rush three and mixing some of that. 212 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: So I just think it's if it's gonna be one 213 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: of these spots where you might see a backup quarterback 214 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: who is having a lot of success come back down 215 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: on earth with it. But kind of like we saw 216 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: with Josh Dobbs when he started. I think it was 217 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: his fourth or fifth start. So I'm just buying low 218 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: here on Nick Mullens, who at least we've seen him 219 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: be competent. He's won both of He's covered in both 220 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: of his first starts with his you know, new teams 221 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: one his first start in San Francisco, and then covered 222 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: his first start with the Cleveland Browns. It's only start 223 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: with them, but first career, you know, averaged seven and 224 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: a half yards an attempt. Well probably about it as 225 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: a Shanahan offense, but again, you have decent weapons Hockinson 226 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: Addison even if Jefferson doesn't play. So give me the 227 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings plus three and a half Saturday road teams 228 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 1: too for what is worth sixty two percent against the 229 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: spread over the last two decades has been about one 230 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: hundred just over one hundred games played on Saturdays over 231 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: that time span. So I love the Vikings in this 232 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: spot going to Cincinnati. 233 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: What the look? I think that that's the only play. 234 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 2: But it's amazing with Flores has done because their roster 235 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 2: talent wise, is not worse than it was last year 236 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: just from a raw talent perspective, and it was bad 237 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: last year. The game bump is massive for what he's 238 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: done to that defense that was just lost. Remember last year, 239 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 2: like at Donna, Tell was like, I don't know, I'm 240 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: just I might try to At the end of the season, 241 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 2: he was like, I don't know what to do. I'll 242 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 2: just I might try something completely different in the final weeks, 243 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: Like it was a mess. 244 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: He gave Daniel Jones what like one hundred million dollars. 245 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: Like that was Daniel Jones who looked like Joe Montana 246 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: going against the Vikings defense twice. Now his defense we're 247 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: talking about the defense is the top six defense. I 248 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: mean times have changed, all. 249 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: Right, Well, bad transition with the road teams on Saturday, 250 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: because for my first pick of the week fifteen Sunday 251 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: six back, I'm going to the Detroit Lions minus four 252 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 2: against the Denver Broncos. I have been fading this Lions 253 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: team incessantly because their defense is terrible. Golf's been outdoors 254 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: a bunch, but now everyone's writing them off. I said 255 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: this about the Bills, about Drusca, I said, all right, 256 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 2: that's the bias signal. This is the bias signal. Out 257 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: the Lions look, and they've gone four and two over 258 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 2: the past six games. Their two losses, they turned over 259 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: six times, had no takeaways. Andy went two of ten 260 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: on fourth down, so made it look a little worse 261 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: than it was. But GOP's come back home, he's indoors. 262 00:13:57,880 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: It's just a massive difference. You also have the much 263 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 2: better offense here, and if you remove the golf outdoor games, 264 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: when he turns into a pumpkin, it's an enormous gap 265 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 2: between these two offenses. I think Frank Ragnow will be 266 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 2: back at center, which is big, so I think that 267 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 2: you'll get a rallied Lions effort. This is where they 268 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: play well indoors, and this Broncos team is on the 269 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: opposite end of the spectrum of the lines. This is 270 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: a classic bi low cell high spot. The Broncos have 271 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: won six of seven and if you look, I talked 272 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 2: up and I was better in the road of the season. 273 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: After that Miami gain, they made some changes on defense, 274 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: schematic changes. They got a little healthier since they gave 275 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: up seventy since week four, their fourth in EPA per 276 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 2: play on defense. However, EPA per play extremely impacted by turnovers, 277 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: which are not predictive over that same stretch. If you 278 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 2: remove turnovers, and you also remove garbage time against backup quarterbacks. 279 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: So you gotta remember this Broncos team faced PJ. Walker 280 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 2: after the Browns injuries. Last week, they faced easton stick 281 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: they faced I also not removing this, but it is 282 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: Mahomes with the flu. I mean even Tank Dell got hurt. 283 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 2: I mean whoever the Vikings quarterback was at the time. 284 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 2: Everything is broken right for the Broncos lately. But if 285 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 2: you remove turnovers and garbage time against just the backups 286 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 2: that they faced on early downs, which are much more 287 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: predictive since week four, twenty fifth and EPA per play 288 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: thirtieth in success rate. This defense has been living off 289 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: of fourth down luck, red zone luck, and most importantly, turnovers. 290 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 2: During their sixth game, so that they've their past six wins, 291 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: they are plus fifteen in turnover margin. They've taken the 292 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: ball away eighteen times and only turned it over three. 293 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: So there is massive aggression on late downs and on 294 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: in the turnover department coming for the Broncos. What perfect 295 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 2: way for it to come? Then the lines who their 296 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: defense been bad bottom three since week seven, But this 297 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: isn't a really explosive Denver offense that you have to 298 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 2: be too worried about. And the Lions have been a 299 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 2: bit unlucky. They're not as bad as they've been. I 300 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 2: still think they're a bottom five to ten defense, but 301 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: they're not a bottom two to three. They've been really 302 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: unlucky over the past two months on like third and longs, 303 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 2: third and Forever's fourth downs, so they have a little 304 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 2: bit of positive aggression coming. But I think it's just 305 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: a perfect bilow cell high spot on the lines at 306 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 2: home with golf indoors, where he's not a pumpkin for 307 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: what it's worth golf thirty and fifteen against the spread 308 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 2: indoors sixty six point seven percent. Among two hundred and 309 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 2: twenty quarterbacks over the past twenty years who have played 310 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 2: at least one game in a dome, he's the most profitable. 311 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 2: Give me the Lions minus four at. 312 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 3: Home, Hello Detroit. 313 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: One. 314 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh. You've You've had a good feel for 315 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: these teams, both the Broncos and the Lions this year, 316 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: better than I haven't really been betting either side of that, 317 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, I think you made good pull points on that. 318 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: And I think also that run defense for the Broncos 319 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: I think is really exploited. The Lions can exploit most 320 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: teams on the ground me and they even had success 321 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: against the Bears last week, and the Bears have been 322 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: a very good run defense. So I'm kind of excited 323 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: to see it all come together because remember I had 324 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: the Lion. I did that the Lions when they beat 325 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: the Raiders, and I think that was the game that 326 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: caused mcganne to get fired. But that was kind of sloppy, 327 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: got through a pick six. They could have been a 328 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: much bigger game. They stalled out in the red zone. 329 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: Try to get too cute. I'm still waiting for the 330 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: Lions offense to put it all together with you know, 331 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: having everyone healthy, Jamison and Gibbs, and I think a 332 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: Lions smash spot is coming and if they could definitely 333 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: win with margin here. So the more I think about it, 334 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 1: the more I like it. For my second pick and 335 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: the third overall of the week fifteen six pack, I 336 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: am going with the New York Football Giants plus six 337 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: at the New Orleans Saints. And I know, I know 338 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: the Giants have been getting lucky with turnovers. I think 339 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: they have like what ten turns. Their defense has ten 340 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: takeaways over the last three games on that winning streak. 341 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,959 Speaker 1: But it all is over. It's all just offset by 342 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: the fact that I just don't think this Saints team 343 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: should be laying six points to anyway. Maybe maybe maybe 344 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots are, like that's about it. Like I just 345 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: this Saints team, for one, is still pretty banged up. 346 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know who's gonna be back with 347 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: recording this on Wednesday and who's not. But they're dealing 348 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: with a lot of injuries. They've been consistently back. Carr 349 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,719 Speaker 1: says he's still hurt even he's playing through, but car 350 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: is not playing well. Despite all their talent, they never 351 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: seem to play as well as they should on offense, 352 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, even when Taysum's a full go, even when 353 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Camara has been in there all year. But I look 354 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 1: at this Giant defense and I say, okay, Derek Carr, 355 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: you know you can bait him into mistakes. And Derek Carr, 356 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 1: he's thrown a pick in more than half of his games. 357 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: He's fumbled in I think five out of his last 358 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: six games now as at least won fumble. So Derek 359 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: Carr is gonna make some mistakes against this wing Martindale defense. 360 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: And then on the other side you have Tommy DeVito, 361 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: who he's kind of like a punchline right now, but 362 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: for what has worth. I mean, he's he they've limited 363 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: his volume, but he's been able to be just efficient enough. 364 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: And I think the Giants offense is still trending up. 365 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: So I don't you know the Giants for the season. 366 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean, their offensive numbers are horrible because you had 367 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: that phase where Andrew Thomas was out, you got a 368 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: little sacks. You had the phase where Daniel Jones wasn't 369 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: thrown downfield, so you know de Veto, he has Andrew 370 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: Thomas now he has I think the three best wide 371 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 1: receivers coming out of the by. I like that they 372 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: essentially cut out the rotation. It was just all Wandale 373 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: Hyatt and Darius Slayton with Hodgens in the red zone, 374 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 1: which is exactly how it should be. And you have 375 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: Saquon bark We healthy. Andrew Thomas has been one hundred 376 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 1: percent of the snap each of the last three games, 377 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: So no coincidence. They're the Giants are competent, So I 378 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: just think this Giant team now is competent, and this 379 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: Saint team is always ripe for letdowns. Derek Carr in 380 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: his career as an underdog fifty two and forty four 381 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: against the spread. Uh, that's fifty four percent respectable, even 382 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: though he has a negative negative point six differential, so 383 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: kind of probably overachieving odor there. But as a favorite, 384 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: Derek Carr is nineteen and thirty seven against the spread 385 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: thirty four percent, failing to cover by an average of 386 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: four and a half points per game, and as a 387 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: favorite of a field goal or more nine and twenty 388 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: six against the spread twenty five percent, failed to cover 389 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: by five points a game, and then Dennis Allen same 390 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: thing six and sixteen, twenty seven percent against spread as 391 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: a favorite two and eight this season. Uh So, I 392 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,360 Speaker 1: just think this is too many points for a competent, 393 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: kind of feisty Giant team that's gonna just has the 394 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: things that kind of I think mess ups mess with 395 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: the Saints. Saints played a lot of man coverage the 396 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: Vito and this Giant off has actually been pretty good 397 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,479 Speaker 1: against man coverage, far better than they have against zone coverage. 398 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: So I do think the Giants have some matchup advantages 399 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: in this spot as well. So give me the g 400 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: men catching six on a road against a Sainty and 401 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: that I still just have no no belief in. 402 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, fading car is a six point favorite. 403 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: I'll never you know, push back with you too much, 404 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: but uh, I do just a lot. I think this 405 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 2: will come down to Ken the job. The Saints run 406 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 2: defense has taken a step back this year, so they're 407 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: you know, they've been dominant recently, So can they get 408 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 2: Barkley going enough? Otherwise you'll be starting to ask to 409 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 2: be able to drop back on known passing downs and 410 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 2: then he'll inevitably take a bunch of sacks. Yeah, I 411 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 2: mean they've won three straight. They've had a ton of 412 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: turnover luck. So I don't know if this seems like 413 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 2: maybe the wrong time the bye, but it's this. The 414 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 2: Saints team, which I don't really think is any good 415 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: in car, is a favorite, so I can't push back 416 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: too much. For my second pick and the fourth overall 417 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 2: of the week, fifteen Sunday six pack, I'm going with 418 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills minus one and a half at home 419 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 2: against the Dallas Cowboys. 420 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: Alert here, Josh Allen, he's he's a football player, and 421 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: there's right from there, we goodru It's an excuse me touchdown? 422 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: How many quarterbacks have you ever seen hurdle anyone? Goodness, 423 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 2: there's no fear, no way. 424 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: The demands to do something about this album wages, and I. 425 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 2: Have not one of the faith of Cowboys for I 426 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 2: don't know. We're going on eight weeks now. I've said 427 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 2: I don't want to fade them. I've I don't too 428 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 2: many bad things to say about the Dallas. They've they've 429 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 2: been the luckiest team in the NFL with turnovers, They've 430 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 2: had an easy schedule, They've done a lot of their 431 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: damage at home. But I've loved their tweaks from an 432 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 2: offensive perspective, what they've done schematically, throwing more early down 433 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 2: stack using his legs. They've all figured figured some things 434 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: out on defense in the post Diggs world, I still 435 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 2: really like this Dallas team. I also really like this 436 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 2: Buffalo team. These are two top five teams and the 437 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 2: top five of my power ratings, two of the teams 438 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 2: that I think can win the Super Bowl. I am 439 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 2: just going to trust the spot here and the more 440 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: desperate team at home, the Styles team going outdoors, Nachna, 441 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 2: it's easy outdoors in front of this rock as Buffalo 442 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 2: crowd in Buffalo in December. I'm gonna jinx myself, but 443 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 2: I'm nine to oher betting Buffalo sides on this podcast 444 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 2: this year. I would bet them early in the air 445 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 2: a couple of times. I faded them basically every week 446 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: after those defensive injuries. And then now I've bet them 447 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 2: every week because I said, now the mark is Botton 448 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 2: vout And by the way, what's happened since then? Well, 449 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: they added Versull Douglas, who's been great. They needed that. 450 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: You know, you go from no star corner, no stut corner, 451 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: to having Risull Douglas as you to do so much more. 452 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 2: McDermott also made some schematic tweaks. And then also naturally 453 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: you have all these new guys because you lost Milana, 454 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 2: you lost ak one, Jon's you Australia. You have all 455 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 2: these new guys with increased playing time, more responsibility, more snaps. 456 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 2: Now after five or six games, guess what, you get 457 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 2: more comfortable, You're gonna improve over time. So the defense 458 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: just has improved over on. Josh Allen's playing at a 459 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 2: different level. Hit. I mean, he is playing as well 460 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 2: as any quarterback. Dacks right up there too. But Allen 461 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,479 Speaker 2: and then this Joe Brady. Joe Brady's been great as 462 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 2: a new offensive coordinator. So I'm gonna trust the spot. 463 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 2: Dallas off that huge win. They've won five straight. For 464 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 2: what it's worth, over the past twenty seasons, underdogs in 465 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 2: December or January that have a winning percentage of at 466 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 2: least seventy five percent twenty nine forty nine and two 467 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: against the spread thirty seven point two percent, and if 468 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: they're on a multiple game winning streak, as Dallas is 469 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 2: sixteen thirty seven and two against the spread thirty percent, 470 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 2: I think this is probably at the top of the 471 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 2: market for the Cowboys. I'm gonna trust the spot, the 472 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: home crowd, Allen to get it done. Give me the 473 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills minus one and to have to keep it rolling. 474 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is I mean it's it's definitely Bills are 475 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: nothing at this point. 476 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: Josh Allen, for what it's worth, this is when you 477 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: want to back him. Elite, just an elite quarterback as 478 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: an underdog or favorite of less than a field goal 479 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 2: twenty one to nine and two against the spread since 480 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 2: his first month of the his rookie season, seventy percent 481 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 2: covered by five points per game. So give me the Bills, 482 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: all right? 483 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: For my third and final pick, the fifth overall of 484 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: the week fifteen six pack. Speaking of WHENSA backt them 485 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: going with the Pittsburgh Steelers plus two and a half. 486 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: Kims want to have a good course. 487 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: Probably won't get the three and less watt Ander Heismith 488 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: ruled out because they're in concussion protocol. I think they'll play. 489 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: I think they were. 490 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 2: Practicing today and then concussion protocol late and it doesn't matter. 491 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: So I was reading the protocol rules and I definitely 492 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: see how these things get fludged because it's like, Okay, 493 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: the team physician has to clear them from a like 494 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: after they practice, the team posian has to quar them, 495 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: and an independent neurologist hired by the team. So it's like, 496 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 1: is that really an independent neurologist then or is it 497 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: just a hired gun that they're probably paying really well. 498 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: So when they have a quarterback or a key defensive 499 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: player like a TJ, why he gets the clear. But 500 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: either way, I mean, remember the Steelers had a long, 501 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: long week because they played on Thursday night last week. 502 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 1: Yeah last week, So by and low, I mean not low, 503 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: because the Steelers are still number two in our luck rankings. 504 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: But finally there's a time to buy back in on 505 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: this team because the Colts are number three in the 506 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: Colts and you said it last week. This is a 507 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: justice fraudulent team as the Steelers, I think maybe even 508 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: more so. And I'm getting points in a spot that's 509 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: just been proven over and over again that the Steelers 510 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: get up for. I mean, the sky is falling. They 511 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 1: lost the first team ever to lose above five hundred, 512 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: to lose to two to two win teams in a row. 513 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger just came out and said, Steelers tradition is dead. 514 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: It's just some extra ross here too. 515 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's just perfect bulletin board material for Tomlin 516 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: to get these guys up. What a raw ron, Mike 517 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: Tomlin spot. We win the game with this cruel bodies 518 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: right here today. Game today. By the way, you know, 519 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 1: this is kind of the spot I've been targeting all year, 520 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: just regardless of you know, the teams involved. It's just 521 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: when you have a backup quarterback laying points against another 522 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, everyone wants to think about the underdog as like, oh, 523 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: yeah he sucks. Yeah, obviously Mitched Trubisky's not good. He 524 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: can't even beat out Tenny Pickett. 525 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: We know this. 526 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: But Gardner Minshew's not good either. Gardner Minshew his four 527 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: point eight percent turnover worthy play rate bottom five among 528 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: forty qualifiers at quarterback. Only one of the other four 529 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: is starting, and that's Desmond Ritter, and he also got betched. 530 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: He just happened to get re inserted in the lineup 531 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: because the guy got benched for was even worse and 532 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: I think got hurt. So this is what the level 533 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: that Gardner Minshew is playing at. You look at success 534 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: rate past success rate this year Trubisky fifty percent. Can 535 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: he picket forty percent? Last year Trubisky forty six percent? 536 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: Can you pick it forty four percent? So it's ugly, 537 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: but long term is not really much of a drop 538 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: off between the two quarterbacks. And again you have one side, 539 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: the underdog side, with the better defense. Pittsburgh's seventh in 540 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: defensive DVOA, eighth against the past, eleventh against the run, 541 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: Indianapolis is fourteenth, sixteenth weited, So they're trending down more 542 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: middle of the pack and really bad against the run. 543 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: So maybe it's Steell. You know that that can help 544 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: the Steelers because they do need to run a ball. 545 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,719 Speaker 1: I don't think you want to have either of these 546 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: quarterbacks dropping back a ton and this thing. But more 547 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: more than anything else, this is just a spot where 548 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: Mike tom Win time and time again has found a 549 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: way fifty five and thirty with three pushes as an 550 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: underdog against the spread, sixty five percent as an underdog 551 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: off a loss twenty one and ten, sixty eight percent 552 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: against the spread as an underdog without Ben Roethlisberger. So 553 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: any other quarterback starting for Pittsburgh besides Big Ben with 554 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: Tomlin coaching as an underdog twenty three ten and three 555 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: seventy percent against the spread, and Tomlin as an underdog 556 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: against an opponent with an equal or better straight up 557 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: win loss record, which the coach do have, uh thirty 558 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: eight fifteen to one. Just a Tomlin spot. I think 559 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: I think it would get to three if though, if 560 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: you know one of the key defensive players ruled out, 561 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: I'm still betting it. 562 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 2: There. 563 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: Give me Pittsburgh plus two and a half at the Hopes. 564 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like if the cults are a fraud and this 565 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 2: classic Tomlin spot. 566 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: Sharp dues can just see it, because sharp dues don't 567 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: care what you say anyway, They just watching. 568 00:30:58,920 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. 569 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 2: Well, I don't think there's I have no difference between 570 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 2: Pickett and Trubisky from a power ratings standpoint, so that 571 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. So I like it. For my third pick 572 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 2: and the sixth overall of the week fifteen Sunday six pack, 573 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 2: we go to Chicago Bears plus three and a half 574 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 2: at the Cleveland Browns. This is I should say, my 575 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: three picks. You just talked about them. This is good. 576 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: The minus one twenty there's we record this and then 577 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 2: it comes out a couple hours later, then you might 578 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 2: be listening to two days later. Minus one twenty is 579 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: fine here. I would bet the lines up the minus 580 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 2: five and a half. People always ask this, and then 581 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 2: I would bet what was my other bet? The bills 582 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: up the minus two and a half, which I already said. 583 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: And then I agree with your if you want to 584 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 2: go through yours real quick, I agree with you. Wait 585 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 2: to see on the Steelers the news, Like, if it 586 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 2: goes down to two, it's not that big of a deal, 587 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 2: then you want to play it. That's probably because there's news. 588 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 2: You know, everyone's not you know, people have jobs and 589 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: are sitting in front of the screen all day. So 590 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 2: but if it goes down to two, hit if there's 591 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 2: probably news out there, yeah, no, minus one twenty I 592 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 2: would buy the whole up to minus one twenty there 593 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 2: and then the g men, I don't think it's gonna 594 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 2: go to seven. 595 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's not gonna go to seven. U I 596 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: have it closer to four. Six is is a key number. 597 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, if you don't know half that could that 598 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 2: could matter. And I don't think it's gonna go to seven. 599 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, So that definitely bet that one. Now, you know, 600 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 4: if it's out there, okay. So get back to the Bears. 601 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 4: My third and the final pick of the six pack 602 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 4: I have. I had never played the Bears for years. 603 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 4: Now I'm playing. 604 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 2: This is the third time in four weeks that I'll 605 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: be betting them. This is the team on the upswing, 606 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,719 Speaker 2: also playing just with house money, nothing to lose. All 607 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 2: the pressure on the Browns here. I think the Browns 608 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 2: will get too much credit for that game last week. 609 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 2: I bet them. I expect them to win. The Jaguars 610 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 2: are beat up on a short week. It was a 611 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 2: great spot. Joe Flacco is still okay, is a great, 612 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 2: still has a rocket arm. He's still thirty eight year 613 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 2: old statue. Now behind an offensive line that lost its 614 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 2: third starting offensive tackle for the season last week. That's massive. 615 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 2: They're under the fourth and fifth string tackle. Uh it. 616 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 2: They are also Ethan poachesse of center. Got hurt. You 617 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: don't talk about a team's banged up ford at running 618 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 2: back the most really the defense. You lost your starting 619 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 2: defensive tackle, Resharst. He matters, he's out for the season. 620 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 2: His backup to ord now it's a cushion protocol. Had 621 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 2: another backup defensive line and get hurt he had grant 622 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: help with the safety go on ir today, Wan thorn 623 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: All and Denzel Award. I think they're gonna play, but 624 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 2: they were out last week. This is a beat up team. Meanwhile, 625 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 2: the Bears outside of Bengakway doesn't really matter. They're completely healthy. 626 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 2: This Bears defense trending up up up since Week seven. 627 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: Fifth in EPA per play, one spot ahead of the Browns. 628 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 2: Also ninth and success rate and montest sweat allows you 629 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: to get a little bit of pressure. Jalen Johnson playing 630 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 2: at all pro level twenty six passer rating allowed this year. 631 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: He's been a top three corner this year. I hope 632 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: it that he gets all Pro honors. He deserves it 633 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 2: and the Bears really should lock him up to a deal. 634 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 2: But yeah, the offense even the bet and they also 635 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 2: got healthier. They were dealing with some injuries earlier the season. 636 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 2: Can't really run on them. And now you're gonna have 637 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 2: the statue Flacco, you know, behind an offensive line that 638 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 2: might be down or will be down a couple of starters. 639 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 2: And on the other side, Bear Fields is playing better. 640 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 2: He worked on some of the mechanics of his dropbacks 641 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: and what does what can he do that. Other quarterbacks 642 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 2: have done that gave the the Browns issues this year. 643 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 2: He's mobile. Mobile quarterbacks that can evade this pressure and 644 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 2: create plays have given this aggressive Browns defense trouble this year. 645 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: It's one of the reasons why I love the Jags 646 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 2: last week was because I number one, I assume Lawrence 647 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: wasn't gonna play. He did, and then I said he 648 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 2: did he wouldn't be mobile. Well, it turns out he 649 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 2: was actually running around well a lot, and he was 650 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 2: making plays. And that's why the Jags, you know, put 651 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 2: up twenty seven points in that game. We were just 652 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: undone by turnovers and their defense. So, yeah, Bears playing 653 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 2: way too well here. This should be a low scoring game, 654 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: and I think there's too much value in Chicago. So 655 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 2: let's keep it rolling. Go back to the Wealth the 656 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 2: Bears one more time. 657 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not you surprised, Well, I guess because it's 658 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: three at MGM. Is that why you didn't go with 659 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: it for your first quick I feel like this is 660 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: probably the best one out of the three that you mentioned, Like, 661 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: I think the Bears are probably the lie. I mean, 662 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: you know, Cowboys Bills, it's still Cowboys Bills. You know 663 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: it's still kind of a toss up, and then you 664 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: know you're weighing points with the Lions. But this is 665 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: like the Bears have a probably win this game. I mean, 666 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: Cleveland's that banged up at this point. 667 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 2: I like all three. I like all three equally, So 668 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 2: I don't it was random? 669 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: Oh got you? 670 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 2: Okay? 671 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 3: Uh? 672 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. So this is another one of those weeks where 673 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: you have a lot better quarterbacks than I do. You 674 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: have Josh Allen, you have Justin Fields, and you have 675 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: Jared Goff. I have Tommy Ducido, Josh not Josh, what's 676 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 1: Nick Morwins and Mitch Bortle's. So yeah, it's uh, it's 677 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: it's ugly. It's week fifteen. But that is going to 678 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,919 Speaker 1: be our six pack. Buffalo mine square and a half, 679 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: Detroit minus four, and Chicago plus three and a half. 680 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: For Stuck, I got the Minnesota Vikings plus three and 681 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: a half, the Giants plus six, and the Steelers plus 682 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: two and a half. Stuck got much better quarterbacks this week, 683 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Justin Fields, and Jared Goff, whereas I have 684 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: the Veto Mullins and Mitch Bortles, as you like to 685 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: call hims. You've just been bortled. But it's time for 686 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: our week fifteen coaches pep talk. You keep playing the 687 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: way you're playing, We're gonna get a half feet again 688 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 1: to night. And it stopped right now for this week's 689 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: coaches pep talk. Gotta go back to our boy. NFL 690 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: film's legend, John Facenda reading a poem by Rudyard Kipling, 691 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna dedicate this to those backup quarterback because 692 00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: you don't really need the luck stuck. I mean you 693 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 1: got you got legit quarterbacks. I got toffto Moans and Trubisky. 694 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, we're gonna we're gonna dedicate to them. 695 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 3: If you can keep your head when all about you 696 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 3: are losing theirs and blaming it on you. If you 697 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 3: can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make 698 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 3: allowance for they're doubting too. If you can dream and 699 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 3: not make dreams your master. If you can meet with 700 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 3: triumph and disaster and treat those two impostors just the same. 701 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 3: If you could make one heap of all you're winning 702 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 3: and risk it on one turn of pitch and toss 703 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 3: and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe. 704 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,320 Speaker 1: A word about your loss. 705 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 3: If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds 706 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 3: worth of distance run yours is the earth and everything 707 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 3: that's in it, and which is more, you'll be a man. 708 00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: My son. 709 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 1: Listen to him talk all day. 710 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,919 Speaker 2: He's the best. I'm gonna write down this your six 711 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 2: pack quarterbacks here and then keep it near the computer, 712 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: and we'll see if anyone will ever top the veto 713 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 2: Bortles Melons. That'll be I mean, right on week fifteen 714 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 2: twenty three. It will be the new leader in the 715 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,399 Speaker 2: clubhouse for yeah's sake, for one of us to reach. 716 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: It's no Beamer, Benz and Bentley I guess. 717 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 2: Hero per chance any of them are starting next year. 718 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: It could all be benched this week. 719 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 2: Yep. Literally during the first get you. 720 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: Could get Tyrod, Taylor, Jared Hall or I guess Dobs 721 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: go back to Dobbs and you could get Mason. Each 722 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: team has a viable option to replace these dudes. But 723 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: I mean, that's twenty twenty three to next show. All right, 724 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: let's get into our favorite total of the week. Last week, 725 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: we both had that Bucks Falcons total that went over 726 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: pretty uh easily, though I think there was a time 727 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 1: there was like a couple of what missfield. 728 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 2: Something missed two field goals? 729 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and that could. 730 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 2: That might cost this Falcons plus four hundred. Now, individual, 731 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 2: I know, I know. 732 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: You wasted a three hundred and fifty yard game from 733 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: desert ridder Jesus, Yeah, so what do you got? 734 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 2: What do you got for this? I'm gonna go. I'm 735 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 2: gonna go with the Washington I'm gonna go with the 736 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 2: Commander's rams over. Always do what the lines are when 737 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 2: we're doing this. I did bet forty nine. It just 738 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 2: was fort to announced fifty. Still like it at fifty. 739 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 2: I think this just like last week the totals thirty nine. 740 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 2: I thought it should be, you know, forty two. I 741 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 2: think this should be fifty two. Washington defense is horrendous. 742 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: It's the worst of the league by any metric that 743 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 2: you look at. But since they traded their edge rushers. Look, 744 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,240 Speaker 2: we've seen what Montes Sweat has done for the Bears 745 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 2: to Chase Young's done for the forty nine ers. They 746 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 2: have no edge rush, kind of decent against the run 747 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 2: still because they have two really good interier defensive linemen 748 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 2: and their linebackers were bad and coverage are decent. Against 749 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 2: the run. Guess what, that's probably gonna lead to McVeigh 750 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: throwing the ballt on here because Stafford and those healthy 751 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 2: receivers now and not under any pressure, is going to 752 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: absolutely cook this Washington d defense that has given up 753 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 2: forty five points in back to back weeks. If you 754 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 2: remove the Patriots game, over their past five games, they've 755 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 2: allowed thirty seven points per game. I mean, this defense 756 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 2: has no answers on the side of the ball. Of 757 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 2: the Rams defense, bottom ten unit, not anything special. Washington 758 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 2: should get its points here. Dashm should be playing a 759 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 2: comeback mode, just chucking it all around and they look 760 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 2: Sam how is taking a ton of sacks earlier the 761 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,720 Speaker 2: season still a bit of an issue, but he's basically 762 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 2: cut that in half. And one of the reasons is 763 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 2: is they took Gates out of the lineup at center 764 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 2: and put Larson in there. It's kind of stabilized things 765 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: a bit. But yeah, they should be a shootout. I 766 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: think the Rams are going to come out. They usually 767 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: play fast early on, they'll build a lead. They should 768 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 2: just score well and they're going to pass a lot, 769 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 2: So you're going to see a heavy, heavy pass frequency 770 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: based on the matchup I just don't know how Washington 771 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 2: went get any stops. Then this Rams defense isn't it 772 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 2: anything to write home about? I think because of the 773 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: suppressed scoring environment. I think that's one of the reasons 774 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 2: why indoors last week there was a thirty nine with 775 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 2: the Falcons Bucks game. You're getting some value on some 776 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: of these overs. I just don't think there's been many stops. Like, 777 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 2: there's no reason the Rams shouldn't get to thirty plus, 778 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 2: like everyone has been on this Washington defense that has 779 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 2: a pulse, And so I think I'll call this like, 780 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 2: you know, thirty one twenty at the minimum, but the 781 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 2: Rams of a shot to get to thirty five thirty 782 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:33,399 Speaker 2: eight here and you know, Washington get to twenty four 783 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 2: to twenty eight. I think this is a shootout. 784 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, this this one really sticks out to me. I 785 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: think I think Cooper Cup is finally fully healthy, even 786 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 1: though he wasn't always on the injury report. You could 787 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: tell he wasn't fully healthy earlier in the year, and 788 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: Kyen Williams being back. Sean McVay is I think just 789 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 1: very particular when he kind of builds his offense out 790 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: and decides what he's going to do in his whole scheme, 791 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 1: and when he has everybody, that's why he doesn't really 792 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: take guys out. I mean most of their most of 793 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 1: the RAMS starters just play almost every snap, and so 794 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 1: when everyone's healthy, that's when this RAM offense starts humming. 795 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 1: And we've last three weeks Stafford shredded the number one 796 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 1: pass defense and DVA for three touchdowns and no picks, 797 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 1: and then number two pass defense DVAA for three touchdowns 798 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: and no picks Ravens and Browns and back to back weeks. 799 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: So yeah, now he's got thirty two. So it's I mean, 800 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: it's it's a smash spot. I'm gonna go complete opposite. 801 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Falcons Panthers under thirty five. And I 802 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: just like to buy, or if I like to sell, 803 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 1: high on the Falcons scoring points because their home road 804 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 1: splits are so drastic, and this has been I mean, 805 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: it makes makes some sense because they do play indoors. 806 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: Desmond Ritard just for his career, I mean you even 807 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 1: go back to college high school, always been a better 808 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,439 Speaker 1: quarterback at home U and not as good on the road. 809 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: For his care year in the NFL, at home seven 810 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: point six yards in attempts, which is well above league 811 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: average eighty nine passer rating, sixty seven completion percentage, which 812 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: is also above average. But on the road six yards 813 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: in attempts a seventy six passer rating, and he's just 814 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: under sixty percent completion. So he essentially turns from like 815 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford into Desmond Ritter when he's on the road 816 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: and you have rain in the forecast. Seems to the 817 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: percent chance seems to be going up. It's still still midweeks, 818 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: so that could change. But right now it looks at 819 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 1: that sixty six percent chance of rain wins upwards of 820 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: fifteen mile miles per hour, and we already noticed Panther team. 821 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 1: I mean if they if they if the Panthers get 822 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: a touchdown, they're doing well for themselves. I mean I 823 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: was on the Panthers last week and that was just 824 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 1: a mistake. I mean, this team was just incompetent, and 825 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: they gave a free seven to New Orleans on a punt. 826 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 1: They got a punt block. That's not going to happen 827 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: every week. So I don't see the Panthers doing much 828 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: to aid the scoring in this game. Falcons have one 829 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: of the top run defenses in the league. So you 830 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: know that's what the I mean the Panthers trailing game 831 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 1: script and you know both both of their running backs 832 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 1: are putting up big numbers rushing, running the ball, big 833 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,520 Speaker 1: volume numbers. That's kind of where we are with this 834 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: Panther team at this point. Division game outdoors and for 835 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: what it's worth, totals under total thirty seven or below 836 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: over the last decade. But once it gets cause that's 837 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 1: once you get past thirty seven, get going lower than that, 838 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: now you're really starting to push the edges of whatever. 839 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 2: You know, twenty seventeen you lose. 840 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:49,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Like so once you start getting lower than that, 841 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, when books are floating like you know, thirty 842 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 1: fours and thirty fives, that's really pushing the edge of 843 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: like the projection model and the standard deviations and all 844 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 1: that stuff. There's usually reason for it, and it's because 845 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 1: you can't you can't go low enough. And to that point, 846 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 1: unders thirty seven or less over the last decade thirty 847 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: and twelve to the under, so totals thirty seven or 848 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,720 Speaker 1: last thirty and twelve to the under seventy one percent 849 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: over the last decade including nine and four this season, 850 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 1: and I think all of the it's like the three 851 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: losses I think so were last week. You mentioned that 852 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 1: Jets Texans game, so maybe people might shy away, but 853 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,240 Speaker 1: I just don't see many points being scored. Remember Falcons 854 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: win at thirteen to eight game against the Jets the 855 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 1: week before it. Add that's I could see a thirteen 856 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: to ten game. That's what I'll call it. Everything just 857 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: sets up perfectly for the defenses. Yeah, under thirty five 858 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: Panthers Choppins. All right, so we got Rams commanders over 859 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: fifty Panthers, Falcons under thirty five. That's our totals. Now, 860 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: time for our favorite teaser of the week. 861 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, six point teasers. 862 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: Don't don't tease me. Both of us ten and four 863 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: on a year on the pod. On our teasers, some 864 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 1: of them have sometimes we go with the same one. 865 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: We're doing that this week. Not that many options, So, uh, 866 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:25,799 Speaker 1: where are we going? 867 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go a little unconventional this week. I 868 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,880 Speaker 2: just I just trust the Rams offense to get it 869 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 2: done at home against this horrible Washington defense. I'll pair 870 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,280 Speaker 2: that with a very traditional teaser piece in the Steelers 871 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 2: low total, getting cross the three and seven we talked 872 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 2: about that game earlier. So give me Steelers and the Rams. 873 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, same, same here. Not really many other options that 874 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 1: I feel comfortable with and that you can tease through 875 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 1: the three and the seven, which is really where the 876 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: value lies for the most part. So Steelers up to 877 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,720 Speaker 1: eight and a half Rams down to minus a half point. 878 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 1: That's our favorite teaser of week number fifteen. We'll get 879 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: into underdogs in a second, but as a reminder, the 880 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,320 Speaker 1: Action Network podcast is presented by Bett MGM.

It's time for the money line parlay. You've 889 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,120 Speaker 1: hit seven, I've only hit three to this. You've been 890 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: beefed in Unde. You're actually seven and seven, so that's 891 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 1: gotta be quite the ROI there. So where are you 892 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: going this week? 893 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 2: Uh? Well, maybe I did bet them, so hopefully I'm right, 894 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: because plenty over fandom, but for futures and for my fandom, 895 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 2: this would make me sad. But I'm going to the 896 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars. I tweeted this out earlier today. I was 897 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,359 Speaker 2: going back over my season long stuff and this year 898 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 2: I in bills betting bills in Raven's sides. I am 899 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 2: fifteen and one and the one loss obviously when in 900 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 2: Cleveland Ravens at Cleveland when TTR got rolled in. Yeah good. 901 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 2: I think this is a good spot. So at the 902 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 2: Jags at plus three and a half went down to three, 903 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 2: they would have been one of my picks them at 904 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 2: anything over a field goal, there's a good spot to 905 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 2: buy them. I think they'll be healthier on the offensive line, 906 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 2: potentially on defense. Their run defense has actually been better 907 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 2: than the Ravens run defense this year. And there could 908 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 2: be major weather here. You could have very high win guts. 909 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 2: I think could get a desperation effort here from the 910 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 2: Jags and I think the Ravens defense is still a 911 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 2: little bit more vulnerable. Then people realize they have had 912 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 2: a very beneficial schedule as far as like who and 913 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 2: when and the backups that they faced. So yeah, give 914 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,960 Speaker 2: me the Jags here. This is a good by spot 915 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 2: on Jacksonville. I think there's a little bit of value 916 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 2: here at home in primetime against the Ravens. 917 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 1: It seems like one of those spots where you Ravens, 918 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,319 Speaker 1: I mean, they they're probably lucky to win last week. 919 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: I mean it took everything they had to seems like 920 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 1: a let down spot for them. And like you said, Jaguars, 921 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: this Jaguars femail all of a sudden desperate where you're 922 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: going for your money on Dog you talked about it 923 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: already Chicago, like them going up against this banged up 924 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 1: Cleveland team, And I mean we're talking about Joe Flacco 925 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: at age thirty eight, Like you said, statue with a 926 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,719 Speaker 1: bag or with a banged up O line. You know, 927 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,399 Speaker 1: might blameing minus one forty five on the money line. 928 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 1: I'll take a healthy Bears team with a mobile quarterback, 929 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 1: and uh, probably some value that's just not being accounted 930 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: for in the market because it's Bears team. You know, 931 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 1: at one point the Bears are like the joke of 932 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: the NFL and every everyone's kind of like, why do 933 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: they even trade for Montest What? Now? Ryan Poles kind 934 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 1: of looks like a genius. It's like, you got Carolinas picks, 935 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,440 Speaker 1: You're gonna you're probably getting that top pick regardless you got, 936 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: you fleece them for for DJ Moore in the In 937 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 1: the process, you have the option of you could you 938 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 1: You're wide open in terms of what you could do 939 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: at quarterback, like you could keep fields and draft the 940 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 1: guy and you know, do it that way. You could 941 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 1: trade them for more assets, and you just kind of 942 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: gave the team some confident and I think you got 943 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 1: a better evaluation of some of the guys on defense 944 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,320 Speaker 1: now that you have like a past, like some semblance 945 00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: of a pass or us. So, yeah, I like what 946 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: the Bear teams doing. So I'm going with the Bears 947 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,479 Speaker 1: plus one forty five. If you parlay those two together 948 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,320 Speaker 1: Jacksonville plus one forty Bears plus one forty five, you 949 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: get plus four eighty eight odds. So pretty juicy. But 950 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 1: at this point, make sure you're better individually, because stuck 951 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: you've been, You've been a lot. You've been hitting them 952 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,880 Speaker 1: these a lot more. It's like my thing was the survivor. 953 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,319 Speaker 1: Your thing has been these money line dogs. So good 954 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 1: stuff on that. Now let's go to the best of 955 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 1: the rest. Games we haven't covered in any other segment, 956 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 1: but are still, as they say, meaningful to some That's 957 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a touchdown, but that may be meaningful to 958 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 1: some of you, so you know what I mean. Also, 959 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 1: I gotta say we were talking about al Michaels and 960 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 1: giving him I think you say, give him the old 961 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 1: yellow treatment, take them out back. But I hurked up 962 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: a little bit. Last few weeks. He's been he's been better. 963 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 1: So they also took him off the playoffs. 964 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 2: I heard. That's what I'm saying. Someone did take him 965 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 2: out because. 966 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah he did. He's probably heard the criticism and 967 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: maybe he's tried to ramp it up. But Thursday nights 968 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 1: have been a lot. But I still still hoyer. Yeah, yeah, 969 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 1: it might. He might go back to sleep for this one. 970 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 2: You know. Do you know the worst announcing crew right now? 971 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 2: And I really like Creig Olsen, by the way, some 972 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 2: people don't like I don't know why. Let me let me, 973 00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:30,880 Speaker 2: let me guess okay, I. 974 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: Think it's either gonna be the one with Charles Davis 975 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 1: or the one with Vil wa Is it one of 976 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:35,640 Speaker 1: those two? 977 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 2: No? No, okay, what you got Kevin Coogler and Mark Sanchez? 978 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 1: Really? I like Mark Sanchez. He's like just goofy and 979 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,359 Speaker 1: like normal enough to like it doesn't annoy me. What's 980 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: your beef with Coogler and Sanchez? He just is it sanchiz? 981 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,479 Speaker 2: But I just don't know. I just when I'm watching 982 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 2: the game, I'm just it's just I like it. I'm 983 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:58,240 Speaker 2: just not excited, and I don't know. There's just something 984 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 2: that's off about them. It's all personal preference. You gotta 985 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 2: flush that thing down the toilet like your goldfish in 986 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 2: fourth grade. 987 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 1: Man, that thing's dead and gone. So we got the 988 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 1: bucks at the packers. Packers are three and a half 989 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 1: point favorites. The totals forty one and a half. Questionable 990 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 1: for the Green Bay offense are Christian Watson and Doan 991 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 1: Tavian Wicks. That wide out Aaron Jones is like the 992 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: new Shaquille Leonard, like doesn't even exist. I don't know. 993 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 1: He comes in and game and gets beat up and 994 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 1: then doesn't play for another three weeks. Jaya Alexander. Also, 995 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: what's going on? Does the Packers just not want to 996 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 1: use the injured reserve because I feel like they have 997 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: guys who missed, like more more than four weeks who 998 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,359 Speaker 1: just continue to be on the injury report. But yeah, 999 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: those guys are all questionable Kwaate Walker as well. And 1000 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,399 Speaker 1: then for the Bucks, you know Dean Is he missed 1001 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: last week, Vitevea and Devin White, So those guys are 1002 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,799 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see what happens with them. But three 1003 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 1: and a half forty one and a half, I don't know. 1004 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of like, I guess a Bible spawn 1005 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: in Green Bay, but without with all these injuries, I 1006 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: can't really do anything. What are you any thoughts on 1007 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 1: this one? 1008 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:06,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good line. Those are three I'd looked 1009 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 2: about Green Bay, So, uh, I'm looking to this buckstealing, 1010 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 2: not a buyern I was looking to fade them, but 1011 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 2: I would need a field goal, so if it gets 1012 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 2: down there, depending on the injury situation, that's what I'll 1013 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:24,239 Speaker 2: look to buy. By the way, I didn't uh, I 1014 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,880 Speaker 2: didn't mention this for the Cowboys Bills game, Cowboys averaging 1015 00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:28,839 Speaker 2: forty points per game at home, twenty on the road, 1016 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 2: sort of like the Browns O D splits that doesn't 1017 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 2: get talked about enough. Falcon they're twenty points per game 1018 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:41,000 Speaker 2: less on the road. Obviously, the small saplade you get 1019 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 2: a couple of games, but it's pretty crazy. But no, 1020 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 2: I think green Bay it's a good line. Three and 1021 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 2: a half, that's where it should be. 1022 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but green Bay is a pretty solid team obviously, 1023 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,960 Speaker 1: just they're one of those teams that could beat anyone, 1024 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 1: unloose to anyone, as we've seen in the last couple 1025 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,800 Speaker 1: of weeks. But yeah, injuries are what it's going to 1026 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 1: really come down to this bus defenses. I mean, even 1027 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 1: if he's down Wix and Watson, I mean, Jayden Reed 1028 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,320 Speaker 1: has been playing well, Dobb's been playing well, Tucker Craft's 1029 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: been playing well. I could see green Bay still winning 1030 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 1: by margin here, but tough to way, you know, three 1031 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 1: in the hook coming off a loss to the Giants. 1032 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 1: But speaking of tough losses, Miami lost a tough one 1033 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 1: to Tennessee and Houston lost c J. Strouds a concussion protocol, 1034 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 1: so protocol, so we'll see about that. But right now, 1035 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: two and a half is the line the total thirty eight. 1036 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 1: The Titans are favored against the Texans at home. Wait, 1037 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 1: some key injuries for the Houston defense. You know, just 1038 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: when I was ready to buy it on the Houston defense, Hey, 1039 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 1: now they get they keep getting hurt. I mean, Houston 1040 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 1: just I don't know what's going on. It's guys can't 1041 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 1: stay healthy. But Blake Cashman rated the top five linebacker, 1042 00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:53,359 Speaker 1: I mean not linebackers aren't massive, but still a good 1043 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: player for their defense. He's doubtful. And then Tavere Thomas, 1044 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 1: who you know plays in the you know, plays in 1045 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:03,319 Speaker 1: second married some special teams. He's he was highly rated 1046 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: as well graded out and he's doubt for. And then 1047 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:10,320 Speaker 1: he got Stroud, Nico Collins, Dalton Schaltz questionable. Will Anderson's 1048 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,200 Speaker 1: popped up an injury report as well. So a lot 1049 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 1: of injuries for the Texas. Tights have been a lot 1050 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 1: better at home. But at the same time, it's kind 1051 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 1: of seems like one of those chasing last week Prime 1052 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: Time with the Titans. I don't know what are you 1053 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 1: doing with this one? 1054 00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,360 Speaker 2: I mean gonna play kind. 1055 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't know. Yeah, probably, Like I said, they 1056 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: seem to be more lenient with the protocol later in 1057 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: the year. 1058 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't do anything with this game now with 1059 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 2: his status and all the other injuries too, and Texas 1060 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 2: has been so explosive this year, and but Collins and 1061 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:56,359 Speaker 2: Dell were place, so uh yeah, it's pretty crazy. Yeah, 1062 00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 2: you can't do anything here with all the injury uncertainty. 1063 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 2: By the way, I should have mentioned that the just 1064 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 2: the NFC South, like I want to fad the Bucks 1065 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 2: eleven and twenty five against the spread versus other divisions 1066 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,800 Speaker 2: this year forty six, seventy nine and two over the 1067 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,840 Speaker 2: past three years. This year, they owned three of the 1068 00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,040 Speaker 2: four worst teams against the spread in the NFL. Bucks 1069 00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 2: are eight and five and spread. I'm looking to pad them, 1070 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 2: but I need three with the Packers game, I just 1071 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 2: wanted to I forgot to mention that note. But yeah, 1072 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 2: nothing in Houston, Tennessee's too much uncertainty right now. 1073 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:29,000 Speaker 1: And then so then you got this Miami team hosting 1074 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 1: the Jets, and Miami favored by eight and a half 1075 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 1: to total down to thirty seven and a half. I mean, 1076 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:36,560 Speaker 1: I came up on the wrong side of that Jet 1077 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: game last week. I mean, injuries obviously didn't help but 1078 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, is it chasing to back the Jets. Yeah, 1079 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,440 Speaker 1: I mean I just feel like Miami, you know, no, 1080 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: Toronto Armstead most likely ankle issue. Connor Williams doubtful, top 1081 00:57:55,840 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 1: graded center in the league, Robert hunt Out the top 1082 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: five graded guard in the league. Tyreek Hill ankle injury questionable. 1083 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 1: But see it seems like he's might not be one 1084 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,840 Speaker 1: hundred per If he's not one hundred percent, I don't know, Like, 1085 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if you put him back out there. 1086 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:20,480 Speaker 1: I mean they tried to do it to make sure 1087 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 1: they didn't like lot like completely blow that game, and 1088 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 1: they blew it anyway last week. But I mean this 1089 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: Dolphin team would be a completely This would be the 1090 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: the Brian Flores to a offense like with with all 1091 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 1: these guys hurt. So I don't mean it should I 1092 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 1: be back in the Jets here or what do you think? 1093 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's Jets or nothing. But I mean at the spot, 1094 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 2: is Miami like they have that bad loss, the Jets 1095 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 2: have that win over Houston. But yeah, there's a couple 1096 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 2: of things here with Miami. They are so hurt their 1097 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 2: offense and to a Canaday's awful under pressure he can't 1098 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: evade any. 1099 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 1: He just runs in his lineman's back. Yeah, he's terrible. 1100 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 2: He's like, oh my goodness, And is all you saw 1101 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 2: with that that Titans defensive line did once those injuries happened. Yeah, 1102 00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 2: and the sow you're going up against that Jets front, 1103 00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 2: So it could and if it's it's so big because 1104 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 2: Armstead gonna play like you could down Armstead. The Hunt's 1105 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 2: gonna be out, and Connor Williams is out. I mean 1106 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,280 Speaker 2: that would be massive bit of hills. Yeah, this offense 1107 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 2: then is nothing. I mean you just double waddle and 1108 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 2: then you're trying to throw it to you know, River 1109 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 2: Crankcraft and Braxton Barrios. Uh, you know, it's basically becomes 1110 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 2: like the Panthers. So yeah, I it's Jets are nothing. 1111 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:40,400 Speaker 2: There's also some defensive injuries like the we saw already 1112 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 2: Jalen Phillips, he's out. We saw the impact of his loss. 1113 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 2: Like they just are completely reliant now on Chubb getting 1114 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 2: to the quarterback. They're down to like Channing Tindall at linebacker. 1115 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 2: They're both their safeties were out last week, Elliott and Holland. 1116 00:59:56,760 --> 01:00:01,680 Speaker 2: Holland's really important. He's going to try to play, so 1117 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,960 Speaker 2: there's a lot of uncertainty if it got Yeah, I 1118 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 2: wanted ten with the Jets. There's also the other thing 1119 01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 2: Ia mentioned wins. There could be twenty five to thirty 1120 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,640 Speaker 2: mile an hour sustained wins. This could be the highest 1121 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:19,000 Speaker 2: weather impact game of the of the week. I don't 1122 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 2: even know who that would favor. More depends on Tyreek's 1123 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 2: playing or not. So yeah, I would lean under here 1124 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 2: with all the injuries that the Dolphins are dealing with 1125 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,320 Speaker 2: still Zach Wilson and the weather, and then I would 1126 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 2: I would lean Jets. I also maybe I consider Jets 1127 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 2: for my money line dog because of all those injuries 1128 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:40,640 Speaker 2: and the weather, and if Hill doesn't go the Dolphins 1129 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 2: literally defense, the difference is massive. 1130 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 1: Just two It's just two defenses going against. 1131 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 2: Three offensive linemen. Yeah, so it's Jets are nothing small 1132 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 2: into the under as well. 1133 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: And then we got the. 1134 01:00:58,240 --> 01:00:58,920 Speaker 2: Cheap Spats. 1135 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Chiefs pass and then Niners Cardinals will go chief 1136 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 1: Pets first nine and a half. The Pats are getting 1137 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 1: at home. The total is thirty seven Chiefs main injuries, 1138 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 1: Pa Checko, Donovan Smith, Patriots. I mean, we've had a 1139 01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 1: bunch of guys banged up on offense, you never know 1140 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 1: which receivers are going to play. I would personally mean 1141 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: under in this one. You've got sean hockey refin always 1142 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: a great under ref thirty one and eight to the under, 1143 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 1: seventy nine percent when the totals below forty five, twenty 1144 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 1: and five to the under, when the home team isn't 1145 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:45,200 Speaker 1: favored in sixty percent to the under overall for in 1146 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:48,640 Speaker 1: hockey league games, So like that. But I don't know, 1147 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,760 Speaker 1: it's another one of these situations where it's am I 1148 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,320 Speaker 1: a week too late with you know, because the Patriots, 1149 01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 1: you know, they beat the Steelers and then the uh yeah, 1150 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs will continue to look broken on offense in the 1151 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,960 Speaker 1: most embarrassing type of ways. But I mean, at some 1152 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 1: point the Chiefs are gonna just not completely vomit away 1153 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,040 Speaker 1: all their scoring opportunities, right, I just I don't know 1154 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:15,320 Speaker 1: what to do with this. What do you what do 1155 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 1: you think? 1156 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1157 01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:18,960 Speaker 2: I think they're dead last and EPA giving up on 1158 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 2: penalties and turnovers. I this is a perfect line to me. 1159 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 2: If it was ten, i'd consider pages. I don't trust 1160 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 2: this Chiefs seem to win by margin. It was seven, 1161 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 2: I would back the Chiefs. Maybe Chiefs are if it 1162 01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:39,959 Speaker 2: gets down to seven and specifically eight, an interesting teaser piece, 1163 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:43,440 Speaker 2: but I think between seven and ten perfect range for 1164 01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 2: this line. 1165 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:48,080 Speaker 1: Nothing for me, Yeah, I do, I do lean under, 1166 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 1: but it is the Chiefs, so I just there could 1167 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:53,160 Speaker 1: be some regression coming, you know, they just get like 1168 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 1: lead points away on just silly yes and the pack. 1169 01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 1: But the paper's defense is pretty good. But uh, Niners 1170 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 1: at the Cardinals. Cardinals plus thirteen and a half at home, 1171 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 1: forty eight is the total. Niners do have some injuries 1172 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: on defense, Travarious Ward, Eric Armstead, we'll see about them, 1173 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:20,520 Speaker 1: Green Laws, herd Arn Burkes. So it's nine of defense 1174 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 1: maybe not quite you know, up to snuff. But Cardinals, 1175 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Marcus Brown still there in practice, Like I 1176 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:33,040 Speaker 1: just don't know where this Cardinal offense is that coming 1177 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 1: out of the buy if they don't have Brown and 1178 01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: Wilson are two top receivers, which we don't We're we're 1179 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:41,880 Speaker 1: not exactly sure what's going on with them. But you know, 1180 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:44,160 Speaker 1: we're talking about thirteen and a half on the road. 1181 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:47,280 Speaker 1: But then Kyler Murray for whatever reason, has been terrible 1182 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 1: in the division at home, just three and nine against 1183 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 1: the spread. Small sample, but you tend like Kyler Murray 1184 01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 1: tends to do really well against the spread as is 1185 01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:57,919 Speaker 1: on the road and be bad at home. I don't 1186 01:03:57,920 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 1: know if that's going to carry over to the new 1187 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,400 Speaker 1: coaching staff for what. So another game that I'm really 1188 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 1: just not don't see anything that I'm personally going to 1189 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 1: be doing with it. But what are you thinking? 1190 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? Depending on that. I mean, I made this round thirteen, 1191 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,880 Speaker 2: but with the Sampsusco injuries, it's not a great spot. 1192 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:17,880 Speaker 2: You know, they basically just clinched the division. They have 1193 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 2: the Ravens next, so they're always good in the script, 1194 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:24,080 Speaker 2: and this Arizona d is horrendous. So San fran has 1195 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 2: a couple of these d guys out, they get the 1196 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 2: ball first, go up seven, nothing, I'll entertain, just thrown 1197 01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 2: a little bit on Arizona live at a number of 1198 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 2: above two touchdowns, big backdoor risk here. I don't think 1199 01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 2: the Niners have a lot of interest in blowing this 1200 01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:43,920 Speaker 2: wide open. And if they have some defensive injuries out 1201 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 2: or you can have some success. So yeah, if it 1202 01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:51,280 Speaker 2: got to fourteen, I'd consider Arizona pre game, but I 1203 01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 2: might depending on the injury reports. I might just wait 1204 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 2: to see if San franc goes up seven nothing, which 1205 01:04:56,960 --> 01:05:00,880 Speaker 2: I usually do, and then look to maybe get Arizona live. 1206 01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 2: But other than that, as of now, it's a pass. 1207 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, because like all these elite teams, like you know, 1208 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,520 Speaker 1: you're seeing it with the Eagles. You know, San Francisco 1209 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:13,920 Speaker 1: is probably gonna have one one like let down ish 1210 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: kind of spot at some point, with a sleepy spot 1211 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 1: where they could still win. Maybe this is the game. 1212 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 1: You know, we saw Baltimore kind of do it against 1213 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:25,280 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. We saw Dallas let Seattle get way too close. 1214 01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 2: So Arizona huh. 1215 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was yeah, that was way right now. But 1216 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying, wait, in a year, they usually it's hard 1217 01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:38,120 Speaker 1: for a team like San Francisco. It's been so good 1218 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:41,960 Speaker 1: a year to keep rolling like right through. So that's 1219 01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like that some team's gonna cover on 1220 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 1: them with one of these big spreads. And is this 1221 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 1: the last one of the year, because you said who 1222 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:50,640 Speaker 1: they got Baltimore and then who's who else they got? 1223 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:59,320 Speaker 2: The Rams left and uh, the command they're at the commanders, Yeah. 1224 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 1: Like one of those like probably the commanders, the RAM, 1225 01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:04,880 Speaker 1: I mean the Rams, the Niners always owned the Rams, 1226 01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 1: but the commanders of the Carners, I would bet one 1227 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 1: of those two is gonna cover. So maybe, uh, you know, 1228 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:12,400 Speaker 1: maybe you kind of look at it from that angle. 1229 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:17,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just let you know, now, I mean, 1230 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 1: that's but that I wouldn't call that like a letdown 1231 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 1: in the same way. 1232 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 2: I didn't say to let that. I'm just putting it 1233 01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:24,600 Speaker 2: out there. 1234 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, what are you fifteen to one? You 1235 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 1: said with Ravens, and uh, I. 1236 01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 2: Think the Raves is gonna lose this week and then 1237 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 2: I think they beat the forty nine ers. 1238 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:38,040 Speaker 1: On that note, that is a rap for us. Thanks 1239 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:42,439 Speaker 1: for listening.
