Happy week too? How is the 31 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 4: Week one? 32 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: Yeah? Week one was good. It was nice to have 33 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 2: the NFL back the craziness of Sunday. I grind it 34 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: out of profit, which is always nice. Nothing crazy, but 35 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: you want to get out of the first Sunday with 36 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: the profit. It's always a good feeling and everyone just 37 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: needs to chill out. But that's what you expect to 38 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: happen in the NFL. Hot takes galore a lot of 39 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: airtime to fill out, so you have overreactions all over 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 2: the place. I just want to remind everyone. Last year 41 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: in Week one, the Bucks, led by Ryan Fitzpatrick, beat 42 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: the Saints in New Orleans forty eight forty. This year, 43 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 2: Bryan Fitzpatrick with the Dolphins lost one hundred and seventy 44 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 2: five to nothing. It's just Week one. The Bucks didn't 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: go on to win the Super Bowl. The Saints were 46 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: all right and should have went to the Super Bowl. 47 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: But everyone just needs to relax. Let's just hold our 48 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: horses on some of these hot takes, but we can 49 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: try and capitalize that in the betting market. 50 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. 51 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 3: I like how you got that humble bragg in that 52 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 3: you grinded out of profit. I did as well. But 53 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 3: it was it was stressful. I was I was actually 54 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 3: at a wedding this weekend, and who's scheduled the wedding here? 55 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 3: Somebody that likes international football more than American football. And thus, 56 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 3: you know, it's kind of a break and you know, 57 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 3: it was rough, but it is what it is. 58 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 4: Wish them all the best. That was fun. 59 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 3: Let's talk about this Thursday night game. We have the 60 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay Bucks owing to Carolina to face the Panthers, 61 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,119 Speaker 3: both teams coming off of loss. Tampa Bay really rough 62 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 3: game for them. Jamis Winston under two hundred yards passing 63 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 3: as they fell to the San Francisco forty nine ers, 64 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 3: and the Panthers lost a close one to the La 65 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 3: Rams at home. 66 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 4: In the end. 67 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: I think the Rams had a little too much on offense. 68 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: Of course, Christian McCaffrey went berserk. So now we have 69 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers favored by six and a half points 70 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 3: over under forty nine and a half. 71 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 4: What are you doing with this game? Step those of. 72 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: You who aren't familiar with me on Twitter and or 73 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: from our Colleges podcast, you'll grow to learn that I 74 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: just spies Thursday night football at the NFL, and the 75 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: reason is just the quality of the product always tends 76 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: to be awful. They have a short week, so teams 77 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: aren't as prepared. They're to sloppier, and you see it 78 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 2: out on the field. So unless I have a really 79 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 2: good reason to bet Thursday night football, I tend to 80 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: stay away. I don't like to force it. I can 81 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: tell you that the Panthers are a great tease piece, 82 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: especially right at seven, if you want to tease them down. 83 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: I compare this game sort of to the Colts Chargers 84 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: game last week in that if it gets to a 85 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: seven flat or if it gets to seven and a half, 86 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: I think you have to look at the bucks. You 87 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: know it's six and a half. You know which is 88 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: right where I make it. It's probably a stay away. 89 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: I think the Panthers do find a way to win. 90 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 2: I think that they have an advantage with the short 91 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: week in that you know, they're staying at home. They 92 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: pretty much know what they are and what they want 93 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: to do on offense. Now, not everything worked last week. 94 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: And look, one of the games that I'm really mad 95 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: about last week was that Panthers Rams game. So the 96 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: Rams are going to come out flat. I like the 97 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: Panthers in the first half, and that's exactly what happened. 98 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: You know, a couple of missfield goals, there was a 99 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: lateral that went the Rams way. The Rams got dominated 100 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: in that first half. But somehow we're still leading and 101 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: they obviously the Rams woke up in the second half. 102 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: But the Bucks are still trying to figure things out 103 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: in Bruce Arians offense. And that showed last week with 104 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: Jamis Winston. I mean, maybe it's just a day off 105 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: at the office and he just was snoozing. But look 106 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: there was two picks sixes that he had, and one 107 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: was by Richard Sherman and one was by Witherspoon. None 108 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: of them were great defensive plays. They were just bad throws. 109 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: And Arians said at one point Barbara ran a wrong 110 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: route and so there was just mistiming and this offense 111 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: looked off and it looks like they still have things 112 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: to figure out. Well, if that happens in week one 113 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: and now you have a quick turnaround in the week two, 114 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: that makes it a lot tougher. You only have three 115 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: days of prep here, So I think the Panthers get 116 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 2: it done line should be right around six and a half. 117 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: If it gets a seven seven and a half, maybe 118 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: look at Bucks. Maybe it teased the Panthers down with 119 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 2: a bunch of great teaser pieces that are offered on Sunday, 120 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: which we'll get to later in the show. Most likely 121 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: a game where I said, on the sidelines and just 122 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: get more intel for future weeks. 123 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: Speaking of intel, if you check out the public betting 124 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: percentages on the Action Network app as we speak, eighty 125 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 3: one percent of the bets eighty three percent of the 126 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 3: money on the Carolina Panthers. A contrarian bet against the 127 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 3: public angle here. If this line, as you mentioned, does 128 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 3: get to seven or greater, I think the line the 129 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: correct line is six and a half as it stands 130 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 3: right now. We're also seeing a little bit more of 131 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 3: the money sixty six percent than bets fifty four percent 132 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: on the under in this game, so it's dropping a 133 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 3: forty nine at some spots. I also think that that 134 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 3: that forty nine, forty nine and a half number. I 135 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 3: wouldn't really touch it either. I see what you're saying. 136 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 3: I do think that the Panthers come out strong. I 137 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 3: kind of called it last week. I mean, I don't 138 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 3: know about this, you know, James Winston in this offense, 139 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 3: just because it's not really Bruce Arians. It's Bruce Arians 140 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: and Byron Leftwich, and they were talking about, you know, 141 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: him checking it down more and I just don't know 142 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 3: if he knows how to play like that, and I 143 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 3: think it might be a while before they figured it out. 144 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 3: So I do see what you're saying with Hey, you know, 145 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: short week might not be the time to invest. And 146 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: the thing is, if you look back at Thursday Night 147 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 3: football since two thousand and three per our bet lab software, 148 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: you guys should go check that out if you're really 149 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 3: into getting just all the best betting data going back 150 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 3: for over a decade. But Thursday night home favorites are 151 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 3: seventy and forty four against the spread, So that is 152 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: a positive trend in favor of the Carolina Panthers. However, 153 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: and we do kind of see in week two and 154 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 3: three it is that time of year when everyone's overreacting. 155 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: So it's only seven and six small sample obviously, but 156 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: only seven and six for those Thursday home favorites in 157 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: weeks two and three, So probably it would have to 158 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 3: get to seven and a half. I think for me 159 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: to really consider the bucks, I think seven is just 160 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 3: the correct one.

Let's crack open the Sunday six pack. 175 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: All right, everybody, you know the drill, Stucky and I 176 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 3: will draft three against the spread, picks a piece and 177 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 3: build our Sunday six pack. Our top pick is worth 178 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 3: two points, Our other two picks are worth one point each, 179 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 3: and then we'll also get an additional point for our 180 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 3: favorite total if that hits, which we'll get you right 181 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 3: after last week I went, I got three points, you 182 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 3: only got one stuck, so you are in the rear view. 183 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to catch up to me. I don't 184 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 4: know if you ever will, but I'll. 185 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: Give you three weeks. You get the first pick. 186 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: This week, I'm starting out with, I mean, just a 187 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 3: laughable spread. The you know the number one overreaction to 188 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 3: last week, and it's the Miami Dolphins plus nineteen and 189 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 3: a half at home against the New England Patriots. 190 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 2: Now, I'll give you two weeks before I catch if 191 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: you're going the roll with the Dolphins every week. 192 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 3: I didn't say I was gonna do it every week, 193 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 3: but when they're plus nineteen and a half, and don't 194 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: get me wrong, betting on them after the massacre. The 195 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 3: massacre that occurred last week in Baltimore is absolutely disgusting. 196 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 4: I know Joe Buck would agree. 197 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 2: That is a disgusting act. 198 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 4: The thing is, it's just too many points. 199 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 3: The spread should be more in the in the fifteen 200 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: and a half range, you know, kind of putting the 201 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 3: difference between them losing by fourteen points and them losing 202 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 3: by seventeen points. This number getting up to nineteen and 203 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 3: a half. Some places that's at nineteen, some places that 204 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 3: it's at twenty with juice. That's just all together too much, 205 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 3: especially for a game that's in Week two. You have 206 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: a new coach for the Dolphins. Just a lot of 207 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 3: uncertainty there. Brian Flora is also familiar with the New 208 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 3: England Patriots. I know a lot of people were surprised 209 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: last early last season when the Detroit Lions ended up 210 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 3: getting a victory over New England early on in that 211 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 3: in that season, and I think, you know, familiarity with 212 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 3: Matt Patricia had something to do with it. So altogether, 213 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: I just think too many points. Patriots coming off, you know, 214 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 3: a resounding win Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. 215 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 4: The Dolphins, you know. 216 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 3: They have to want to get some respect, but they 217 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 3: have to want to come out and play hard. It's 218 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 3: at home, it's in Miami. We've seen teams struggle. East 219 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 3: Coast teams and colder weather teams struggle when they go 220 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 3: to Miami early in the season. I think the Bears 221 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 3: come to mind from early last year. I was a 222 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 3: twelve and fourteen that it went to Miami, and I 223 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: believe they lost that game, if I'm not mistaken. We've 224 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 3: also seen the Patriots have some trouble against you know, 225 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 3: inferior Dolphin teams, you know, when they go to Miami 226 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 3: in the past, in the Brady Belichick era. 227 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 4: So I think the Patriots are a better team. 228 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 3: I think their defense is really strong, one of the 229 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 3: reasons that they started a lot faster. 230 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 4: This year against Pittsburgh. 231 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 3: Sometimes we see the Patriots kind of stumble on defense 232 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: through the first few weeks of the season. But I 233 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 3: just can't kind of get behind betting on the Patriots 234 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: or any team at that spread. And I can't get 235 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 3: behind not, you know, taking a shot at the underdog, 236 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 3: because these are the kind of picks you have to 237 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 3: make your betting numbers if you want to be profitable 238 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 3: long term. You can't just pick the chalk in these spots. 239 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 3: And if you're staying away, you're kind of leaving some 240 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 3: value on the table. So I just think the Dolphins 241 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: keep it a little bit closer than the spread would indicate, 242 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 3: which I think is inflated. 243 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 4: Again. 244 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: I can't argue with the principle of it. I'm a 245 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 2: huge believer and preacher in the NFL specifically, even though 246 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 2: this applies to all facets of life of buying low 247 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: and selling high, which is what you think you're doing 248 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: now with the Dolphins. The thing I can't wrap my 249 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 2: head around is after what I saw last week, I 250 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 2: don't know how bad the Dolphins are. I mean, you 251 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 2: never want to let one week dictate, but after all 252 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 2: their departures and you know, talk of quitting and their tanking, 253 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: and I don't really know how bad this team is. 254 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 2: I mean, the Ravens aren't the best team in the NFL, 255 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: and the Ravens look like they were Alabama playing, you know, 256 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: one of the little sisters of the poor that they 257 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: play in early in the season. I would tend to 258 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 2: maybe look at the under if you do like the Patriots. 259 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 2: This Patriots defense is legit there. I don't know how 260 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: Miami's going to move the ball with that offensive line. Now, look, 261 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 2: if this gets a three touchdowns, I'm gonna have to 262 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 2: hold my nose and click submit or have someone else. 263 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: I'll have my girl do it for me. I don't 264 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 2: know if I can hit submit. That's where I met. Now, look, 265 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 2: betting double digit underdogs in the NFL is the way 266 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 2: to go. It pains me to ever even think about 267 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 2: betting a double digit favorite. So I'm not looking at 268 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 2: the Patriots here. I mean, since nineteen ninety three, there's 269 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 2: been one hundred and twenty NFL teams favored by two 270 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: touchdowns or more. They're fifty seven and sixty against and 271 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: three against the spread, So slay the under fifty percent 272 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 2: if they're seventeen plus. Doesn't happen often five and fifteen 273 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 2: against the spread. But going back to those one hundred 274 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: and twenty teams, once again, you see this all the time. 275 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 2: The Patriots are the exception. The Patriots are twelve and 276 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 2: six against the spread as favorites of fourteen or more points. 277 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: And if the Patriots are always the exception to these rules, 278 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: because what makes them so great is they only care 279 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 2: about how are we executing this next play, this next drive. 280 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: And one of the things I looked into recently was 281 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 2: the Patriots would have a huge lead at the half. 282 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: They're not even a good fade in the second half. 283 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: When you think they just sit on it, they are 284 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 2: really good against the spread in the second half team. 285 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: But Brady, He's twelve and three straight up as a 286 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: double digit favorite on the road. The only three losses 287 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 2: Brady has had as a double digit favorite in Miami. 288 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: So Miami has been his house of cars. If you 289 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 2: do have any balls, Chris, you know. 290 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw something on the money line. But I 291 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 3: hear you stuck. I just this is the way I'm 292 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 3: looking at it. You mentioned your one hundred and twenty 293 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 3: teams in all the numbers with Brady. But my whole 294 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 3: thing is, there's no spread that's supposed to be this high. 295 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 3: Like if you take the best team in the league 296 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 3: against the work like, the spread still shouldn't be nineteen 297 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 3: and a half. It's only happened eight times since three 298 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: where it's been higher than seventeen, and the underdog seven 299 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 3: to one against the spread in those eight games, betting 300 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 3: the number, not the team. That's how they tell me 301 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 3: to do it here at the Action Network. Oh, by 302 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 3: the way, even if I would still be up three 303 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 3: to two, so boom. 304 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 2: Well that's if I don't hit this, because the first 305 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: pick is worth two points, and you're going your two 306 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 2: pointers with the Dolphins. My first pick is, Look, I'm 307 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 2: going back to the well with my team, the only 308 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 2: team either future on a team I think the market 309 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: has not caught up too yet. They caught up a 310 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 2: little bit. The Green Bay Packers only laying three at 311 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: home to the Minnesota Vikings. If I hear one more 312 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 2: person on Twitter, one more Vikings fan from school Nations 313 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 2: say the Packers haven't beat the Vikings in nine hundred 314 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: and ninety five days, which will be the case by 315 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 2: the time this kicks off, I'm not liing on the 316 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: Twitter again. Yes, that's a true fact. The Packers have 317 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: lost four straight to the Vikings. Aaron Rodgers didn't play 318 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 2: one of them. Aaron Rodgers got hurt in the first 319 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 2: series in another one of them. The third game the 320 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 2: Packers won at home, and then the refs called a 321 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: personal foul for you know, one of the defenders laying 322 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 2: down wrong on the quarterback. You know that terrible rule 323 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: which I hope never gets caught again. And then the 324 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: last game they won late last year in Minnesota. Fair 325 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: So I don't care about this recent history. The Packers 326 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 2: team this year has a defense, and I brought this 327 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 2: up on the podcast last time. You know, I said 328 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 2: that their corners are more seasoned, you know. The granted 329 00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 2: they were playing Mitch. 330 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 4: Bortles just been bortled. 331 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: But theirs look better and they have safeties now, and 332 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: their safety Amos made the game saving pick. Darnold Savage 333 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: looked like he fit perfectly in that robber position. And 334 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 2: then the two Smiths Sa Darius and Press's Smith. It's 335 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: sixteen total pressures in two and a half sacks in 336 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 2: that first week. Packers have extra time to prep here. 337 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: They played on Thursday night, Minnesota played on Sunday. The 338 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: Vikings offensive line is an absolute disaster. Still, it's just 339 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: a mess, you know, and they're going to run the 340 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 2: ball a ton. I also like the under teaser foreshadowing 341 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 2: what my under might be. But I just think this 342 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: Packers defense is legit and that extra time off. A 343 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 2: lot of times people can just say it as a 344 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: narrative blah blah blah, or a reason to back a team, 345 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 2: but I think it can really help the Packers here. Look, 346 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 2: their offense look trrendous, their new offense, but they're playing 347 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: on the road against one of the best defenses in 348 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: the NFL, the Vikings great defense. I think a step 349 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 2: below the Bears, but that time off, it's going to 350 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 2: help Rogers at home field goal. I haven't power rated better, 351 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: so I think this line should be over a field goal. 352 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: And don't forget about the Vikings injuries in the secondary 353 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: and Xavier Rhods's decline. Look, the Falcons couldn't take advantage 354 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: of it because because I've bet on out of that 355 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: and their offensive line was a disaster and it's all 356 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 2: bagged up. But the Packers actually have a legit offensive 357 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 2: line that can deal with you know, their complex blitzes 358 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: with Hunter, can deal with Griffin. So I think the Packers' 359 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 2: offenseill obviously looked better after that first game under the 360 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 2: belt with extra rest, and the Packers' defense is legit people, 361 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: It's gonna keep improving, and I think that the markets 362 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: are going to realize that, and they're undervaluing how good 363 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: of a defense and how much of an improvement it 364 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 2: was from last year. So I like to pack as 365 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 2: my best pick. Length three at home. 366 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: A lot more conservative, but you are on the sharp 367 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 3: side looking at the percentages on the Action Network app 368 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 3: plus three. 369 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: I believe this. I thought I was gonna be with 370 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: everyone else comming with the fier. 371 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 3: They're getting sixty three percent of the tickets but only 372 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 3: forty two percent of the money. So squares on one side, 373 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 3: more tickets, sharps on the other, more money. That's the 374 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 3: right play. I think the line should be at three 375 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: and a half. Half wouldn't be surprised if this game 376 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 3: went under though. I think it opened at forty six. 377 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 3: Now it's down to forty four. I think the better 378 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 3: value was taken under forty six because like that, forty 379 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: five is a is a key number. Pack improved on 380 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 3: defense now with the extra rest in a good spot. 381 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 3: We haven't really seen the Vikes passing game yet because 382 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 3: they went through ten passes last week. Let's go to 383 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 3: my number two pick, and I'm going with the and 384 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 3: this one might surprise some people, but I'm going with 385 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 3: the Washington Redskins plus five point five at home against 386 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys. You know, the Washington Redskins were a 387 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 3: team that probably scared a lot of people that had 388 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 3: the Eagles and survivor because they jumped out to a 389 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 3: lead on Philadelphia, you know for a while. 390 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 4: Then they kind of choked it away. 391 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 3: But you know, I think that this game, you know back, 392 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 3: you know, back at home, I think the people are 393 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 3: kind of overreacting to the you know, the Redskins losing 394 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 3: and choking the game away, and then on the other side, 395 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys playing at home and kind of pulling 396 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 3: away from the New York Giants with a lot of 397 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 3: explosive plays. 398 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 4: Now, I think that. 399 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 3: Number one when you look at the Redskins, just by 400 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 3: pure dvoa, they actually were better than the Eagles. What 401 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 3: doing The Redskins were a lot of like penalties, a 402 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: lot of mistakes, things like like that, and then explosive 403 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: plays you had, you had, you know, Deshaun Jackson catching 404 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 3: a couple of bombs, and it just the game got 405 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 3: out of hand. I think back at home, you know, 406 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 3: with another week to prepare, I think they can kind 407 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 3: of and see how many exposed to play. 408 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 4: The Cowboys had. 409 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 3: On the other side, those are tough to repeat, Those 410 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 3: are tough to predict, so you kind of count on 411 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 3: them regressing in your projection model to an extent, and 412 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 3: you know when that happens. 413 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 4: I think this game is a lot more even. 414 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 3: I think it should be more around a three and 415 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 3: a half four point line with the Redskins at home. 416 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,719 Speaker 3: I think, you know, they're getting the three points at 417 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 3: home field advantage. You know, I don't think it should 418 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 3: be any more than Hey, there are four points worse 419 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 3: than this tea than the Cowboys on a neutral field. 420 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: Their offense is as bad as we like to clown 421 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 3: them for. Jordan Riedos gets hurt and they have no receivers. 422 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 3: I mean, Terry McLaurin looked pretty good. The Redskins were 423 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 3: able to kind of move the football. Darius Geice gets 424 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 3: hurt again, and so you know, Adrian Peterson inactive, so 425 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 3: they don't really have a running game to lean on 426 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 3: in this game. I think in this game and I'll 427 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 3: talk about the the total for this game later, it's 428 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 3: at forty six and a half right now, but you 429 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 3: can probably guess which way I'm leaning. But I think 430 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 3: with Adrian Peterson active, I think they will be able 431 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 3: to kind of have a bit more of a sustaining 432 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 3: run game. 433 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 4: You know, the Cowboys they will kind of. 434 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 3: Play you know, some zone and let the Redskins kind 435 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 3: of pick up you know, small yardage. 436 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 4: And I just don't think this game gets out of hand. 437 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 3: The way games with these two teams got out of 438 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 3: hand in Week one, Cowboys were at home playing essentially 439 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 3: the second worst defense it looks like right now, besides 440 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 3: the Dolphins, who of course I'm betting on as well, 441 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys being a public team team that a 442 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 3: lot of people like to bet on they see a 443 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 3: weak team like the Redskins, who everyone expects to be 444 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: a bottom five team. 445 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 4: I think the line is just the widw inflated. 446 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 3: You know, it opened at at four and it's ballooned 447 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: up to five and a half, and I just think 448 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: that number is too big. 449 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 4: And if you look at. 450 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 3: Jay Gruden, another guy gets clowned all the time, most 451 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 3: of the time rightfully so. But in his career coaching 452 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 3: the Washington Redskins, Jay Gruden thirty one and twenty four 453 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 3: as an underdog nine and five, is an underdog since 454 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 3: the start of the twenty eighteen season. So this is 455 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: a team that we just kind of rag on and 456 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 3: pylon and what happens is the favorite gets you to 457 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 3: tad bit overinflated with these lines, I wouldn't even be 458 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: surprised if it moved to six that kickoff. 459 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 4: So you know, I like the Redskins in this spot. 460 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 3: Actually covered at home against the Cowboys last season as well. 461 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, I will say that the Cowboys. 462 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 2: The one thing I'll say with the Cowboys is that 463 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 2: and I was oppressed by the Redskins offense and we 464 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 2: did kind of call the Shawn Jackson burning Josh Norman. 465 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: But there's some questions I now have about the Eagles 466 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: secondary without overreacting to one game about some of the 467 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: corners who might have looked good last year that I said, 468 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 2: where it's is coming from that defense? 469 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 3: I don't think you expect that kind of game. My 470 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 3: thing is penalties less likely to happen at home with 471 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 3: the home crowd. You know, they had a ton of 472 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: holding penalties, and then Adrian Peterson, I think being active, 473 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 3: you don't expect them to kind of lose their running 474 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,239 Speaker 3: game like you know in the first half, because when 475 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: you see the opponent, you know, get out of explosive 476 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 3: plays the week before, what do you do, you say, Hey, 477 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 3: the first thing we got to do is stop these 478 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 3: explosive plays. Let's you know, it's keep a safety back, 479 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 3: Let's play some zonees and do things like that. So 480 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,719 Speaker 3: I just think it's going to be a little different 481 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 3: game for both teams. 482 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 2: There's do you hear a lot of talk about this, 483 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: maybe about play action and some of the teams that 484 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: were using it, and you know, the Ravens use it 485 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: over fifty percent of the time. The Cowboys use it 486 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 2: almost fifty percent of the time as well, and then 487 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 2: the Chiefs and Titans all those all four teams won 488 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 2: you all four used it over forty percent of the time, 489 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 2: and the Cowboys, I think way more teams should do it. 490 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 2: The Cowboys with Keller Moore calm plays, they're a perfect 491 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 2: team to do it. I mean they have a quarterback 492 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 2: who could move an animal in the backfield, and then 493 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 2: three you know, solid receiving options, guys who are pros 494 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 2: that will go out and catch the ball. With a 495 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: great offensive line. I mean, if they keep this up, 496 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 2: that offense is gonna be really, really scary this year 497 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 2: in Dallas. But can't argue with your logic. I'll go 498 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 2: with my second pick here. I'm gonna go with the 499 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 2: team I backed last week, and I'm going back to 500 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 2: the well with the Cincinnati Bengals. And I'm a Zach 501 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 2: Taylor believer. You know, he showed me why I believed 502 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 2: in him last week with a great game plan and 503 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: a game the Bengals should have won going away, but 504 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 2: Andy Dalton had a career high in passing yards at 505 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 2: his first start with this new scheme. John Ross actually 506 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 2: looked like the John Ross we all thought. 507 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 3: Wish I owned him in fantasy Like he was not 508 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 3: even on my radar. That is my fault, because I man, 509 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: I wish I would have been on that guy. 510 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, he went absolutely bonkers and you can count on this. 511 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: He's gonna burn Richard Sherman and look, San Franz, there're 512 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 2: one if Weatherspoon can play. He did last week and 513 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 2: he had one of the best games at corner, excluding 514 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 2: the pick six because that was just a gift, but 515 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,360 Speaker 2: he played really well and that was a huge week 516 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 2: point besides the safeties on San Frandle show, and that's 517 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 2: why no one threw at Sherman because they just really 518 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 2: didn't have any other corner. But here's what I do 519 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 2: like about the Bengals. The Bengals defensive line. There's a 520 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: lot of questions with the sand fran offensive line. They're 521 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 2: running game. They're running back depth now with injuries. 522 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 4: No actually now, no. 523 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 3: Matt Brida is one of the most underrated backs and 524 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 3: they got like I think that, yeah, no, I mean 525 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 3: that's fine, and I yeah, he's liable to go down 526 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 3: in like the second quarter, as we've seen him do. 527 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 3: But like, I won't sit here and say, oh, their 528 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 3: running game is any worse off if you're giving let's 529 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 3: say Matt Brita seventeen carries versus him, you know, Coman 530 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 3: nine and Brita seven or something, you know what I mean, Like, 531 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 3: Brita is just as good, if not better. 532 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 2: I know you're a Brita fan, but look, they've taken 533 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 2: a lot of injuries, and yeah, Britty can go on 534 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 2: at any time. But the Bengals defensive line dominated. I 535 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 2: came against Seattle, which all they do is run it. 536 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 2: They were one of the best rushing offenses in the 537 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 2: NFL last year. But even more importantly, what I really 538 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 2: want to point out here is that the sand frand 539 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 2: they're on the second road game in a row in 540 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 2: Week one, and you know, I think like fifteen to 541 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: the least sixteen teams in Week two that have played 542 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 2: back to back road games have lost. Whatever. If you 543 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 2: increase to SANMPA size, it might not be as great. 544 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: But they're playing Cincinnati here is playing the exact same 545 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 2: defense as they played last week. This is the Pete 546 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: Carroll you know, cover three. You have Joe Mixon, who's 547 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,959 Speaker 2: heard for the Bengals. You know, their running game is 548 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 2: very questionable, especially with their offensive line. So I think 549 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 2: they're gonna come out throwing a ton again. And one 550 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 2: of the comments that Taylor had in his presser was, 551 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 2: look and he knows he was with the Rams. He 552 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 2: knows these these Carol Seattle and all his coaching Tree defenses. 553 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 2: He knows that scheme, he knows how to attack it. 554 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 2: And Dalton looked really comfortable and they had just a 555 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 2: lot of wrinkles that the Seahawks weren't ready for. The 556 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 2: Seahawks have some questions in their secondary, especially at they're lead, 557 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 2: losing Earl Thomas to San Fran. But this San Fran 558 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 2: defense is exactly the same, and you know it's the 559 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: Pete Carroll coaching tree. I think the Bengals get this done. 560 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: I make them a field goal favorite. I know it's 561 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 2: getting close to there, but I love what I saw 562 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 2: from Cincy. I think they take a ton from that, 563 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 2: a team that was so down. Coaching changes obviously have 564 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 2: made a huge difference. I think their defensive line can dominate. 565 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 2: They can make Jimmy G throw it, and Jimmy G 566 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: is than that of offense or just not in rhythm. 567 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: Yet I think since he wins. 568 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 4: I stuck. 569 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 3: You're disappointed me here though, because you started the show, 570 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 3: you went into your whole rant about the you can't 571 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 3: overreact to week one, and here you go. 572 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 4: It's taking you know, two teams that they look good 573 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 4: in week one, and I know we both kind of 574 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 4: model this shit. 575 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 3: We have our spreadsheets and whatnot, passing efficiency decide games right, 576 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: and the bottom line is, I don't care how Jimmy 577 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 3: G woked last week. I don't care how many yards 578 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 3: Andy Dalton threw four against that Seattle defense. Jimmy G 579 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 3: is a much better quarterback than Andy Dalton. First career, 580 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 3: he's averaging eight and a half yards in attempt. Andy 581 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 3: Dalton is a yardless I don't think that one game, 582 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: especially without his top receiver AJ Green, and when obviously 583 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 3: John Ross's outlier performance there is necessarily more predictive than 584 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 3: what we have to go off of with Jimmy G 585 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 3: being what we have to go off for with Dalton 586 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 3: inta taudy. I do think that the San Francisco d 587 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 3: fence is a little bit better. 588 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 4: I think we two at home. I think everyone's on them. 589 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 4: I think they come back down to earth. 590 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 3: I'm hoping that you get this one wrong so that 591 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 3: I can I can extend my lead or or get 592 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 3: back in if the if the Dolphins don't, you know, 593 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 3: take care of business. 594 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 4: So we'll see how that happens. 595 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 2: We're one Jersey for the rest of your life. Would 596 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 2: it be Jimmy g or Kyler Murray? 597 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray? 598 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 3: I mean coming back for the tie, giving me an 599 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 3: extra cover on my two point pick. 600 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 4: That was essentially the difference between us and. 601 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: Daryl Bevell calling a time out on a first down 602 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 2: for the line. We know, we know he's a Super 603 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: Bowl call. 604 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 3: Joe Buck knows Darryl Bevell was just the greatest play 605 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 3: call of all time, Right, Joe. 606 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: That is a disgusting act. 607 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, what's crazy is the most disappointing 608 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 3: thing about that whole game for me was that I 609 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 3: didn't get to watch it live. I was at a 610 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 3: wedding at the dinner at that point, so all I 611 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 3: see is like my Cardinals bet, you know, dead in 612 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,959 Speaker 3: the water. I missed it all on the live, had 613 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 3: to go back and watch it. But let's get to 614 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 3: the third pick. This is a team that did not 615 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 3: salvage anything for me going back to the well though 616 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 3: Atlanta plus two at home against the Philadelphia Eagles. 617 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 4: Listen, you kind of hit on it stuck. 618 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 3: I think the Eagles have question marks on the back end, 619 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 3: as they tend to do. 620 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 4: I think that the fact that the Redskins had a. 621 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 3: Better DVOA than them in a game that the Eagles won, 622 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 3: in the game that the Eagles maybe maybe. 623 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: Should have could have lost, should have lost. 624 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 3: And kind of bailed themselves out with some explosive plays 625 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 3: which are you know, again harder to repeat at home now, 626 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 3: you know for the Falcons coming off a tough road 627 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 3: loss against it, And I should have I should have 628 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 3: been more conservative, I think with betting against Mike Zimmer 629 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 3: when he's at home, really strong against the spread record 630 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 3: for him with the Minnesota Vikings, that defense playing out standing. 631 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 4: So so that was my bad. 632 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 3: But listen, I think this is your what you said 633 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 3: at the top, this is an overreaction. I think this 634 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 3: line is another one of those lines where it should 635 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 3: be a pick them. I think it's fair to say 636 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 3: the Eagles are a better team than the Falcons. I 637 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 3: had the Eagles extremely high on our preseason and power ratings. 638 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 3: I think I think they are up at number six 639 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 3: for me. So I do like the Philadelphia Eagles with 640 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 3: with the healthy Carson Wentz. I love the Deshaun addition, 641 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: which paid off right away. I think that adds bottom 642 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 3: line yards per attempt to your passing efficiency Deshaun Jackson. 643 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 3: That being said, this Eagle team, you know, going into 644 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 3: Atlanta where Atlanta plays. 645 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 4: Matt Ryan plays a lot better in the Dome. 646 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 3: His yards per attempt jumps about a yard up, you 647 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,199 Speaker 3: know from when he's on the road. Uh. It's just 648 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 3: a tough matchup and it's not one where I would back, 649 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 3: you know, any you know, a team like the Eagles 650 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 3: as a two point favorite. 651 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 4: I love the Falcons in this, but I. 652 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 3: Think I don't think they are three points worse than 653 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 3: the Eagles on a neutral field. So I think this 654 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 3: line is just a little bit inflated based on the overreaction. 655 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 3: I still think everything that you know kind of talked 656 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 3: about with the Falcons last week holds true. I think 657 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 3: there I think their defense will be better you know, 658 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 3: with with some guys healthier, I think that the offense 659 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 3: will ultimately be more efficient. Didn't get to see it 660 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 3: against Minnesota, and just again a team that came to 661 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 3: play at home tough defense. I think Philadelphia is a 662 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 3: totally different kind of team. The fact that they could 663 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 3: kind of get torched, you know, early on by the Redskins. 664 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 4: In that game. 665 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 3: It's not like you're taking like massive, something massive away 666 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 3: from that, but it shows that they're vulnerable. 667 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 4: It opened at a pick. 668 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 3: The fact that it's moved to minus two for the 669 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 3: Eagles is just all overreaction. 670 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 4: In Week one. So yeah, I'm going with the Atlanta Falcons. 671 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: Hopefully I'm not going to by the end of the 672 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: Week two with picks on back in the Falcons. 673 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to know who's gonna block for Atlanta 674 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 2: because I mean they lost chrys Linz from their starting 675 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 2: guard last week to injury. He's now in ir McGarry, 676 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 2: their right tackle. He can't really play the whole game 677 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 2: because of a hard condition. Matthews looked atrocious, their pro bowler. 678 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: He's supposed to be their rock and left tackle. So 679 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 2: ken they give Ryan time, you know against Graham and 680 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: Cox and Sweat and Barnett and you know whoever the 681 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 2: Eagles are bringing up the middle, Ken Ryan get enough 682 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 2: time to take advantage of I think plus matchups down 683 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 2: the field. So that's what I'll have my eye on. 684 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, when we say, you know, don't overreact to week one, 685 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 3: this is kind of getting into the nitty gritty, but 686 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 3: it replies to any week. But one of those things 687 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 3: is like, the offensive lines are going to look totally 688 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 3: different in road games against tough defenses. 689 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 4: Then when they're back at home, the. 690 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 3: Crowd is kind of on their side, is not, you know, 691 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 3: they can kind of set their protections better, there's west 692 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 3: likelihood to be penalty. So in short, I do think 693 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 3: the offensive line will be better that That is kind 694 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 3: of a classic reason why you don't want to overreact 695 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 3: to week one. 696 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 4: But let's let's let's keep it moving. 697 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 3: We got a lot to get to, so stuck your 698 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 3: last pick of our Sunday six bat. 699 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 2: I'm also going back to a team that burned me 700 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 2: last week, and that's the Pittsburgh Steelers. Betting against Brady 701 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 2: and Belichick in Foxboro. Week one, you might go to, 702 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: I don't some of the coach decisions by Tomlin. You know, 703 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: they were playing some man early and then the Patriots 704 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 2: were just running their rubs and picks early and they 705 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 2: didn't adjust. You got to get pressure, you have to 706 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 2: play closer up on man. I mean a lot of 707 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 2: those picks and rubbs were illegal as fuck. But the 708 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 2: Patriots do it so well that it's so disguised that 709 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: you can't really tell. They probably are practicing it right 710 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: now because they're just so precise. Dante moncree throwing a 711 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 2: fade to him a third and goal at the one, 712 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 2: and then a field goal. I don't know what the 713 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 2: hell they were doing there. Montcreef's seven yards on ten targets. 714 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 3: Thanks for coming out, Moncreef, goodbyball and Fantasy. But Ben Roethlisberger, 715 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 3: it might be that time because. 716 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 2: Even than not ever reacting to one week, this is. 717 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 3: The last year thing, like the whole thing with Antonio Brown, 718 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 3: and it was like, oh, is he declining? Well, he 719 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: had the most uncatchable balls in the league last year, 720 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 3: highest percentage among any you know, number one receiver. Ben 721 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 3: Roethlisberger has not been as accurate. He has not been 722 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 3: making his good decisions for a while now. So the 723 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 3: fact that they come out last week and scored three 724 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 3: points against that Patriot defense. Like, yeah, I don't think 725 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 3: you want to react, but not at all surprising. I 726 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 3: mean Ben Roethlisberger, I don't think it's just the coaching. 727 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 3: I mean he's feuded with his past pocs. I think 728 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 3: it goes beyond that with Big Van at this point, 729 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 3: Like I am a little bit concerned with the I 730 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 3: don't think the armstreng necessarily decline or anything like that. I 731 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 3: just think the decision making hasn't been there. I mean, 732 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 3: this guy, what you did. We get interceptions as well. 733 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 2: Last year, there's some cause for concern in Pittsburgh, you know, 734 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 2: there was some rust I think, and then playing one 735 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 2: of the best secondaries in the all of NFL and 736 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 2: was locked up Shuster with Gilmour, who might be the 737 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 2: best cover corner in the NFL, and he put Schuster 738 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: in jail until late in the game when they just 739 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 2: let him go and let him out early on parole 740 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 2: for the fourth quarter of meetingless yards. But this week 741 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: he's not going to be locked up and they're going 742 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 2: to put him in the slot. And the way that 743 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 2: the Seahawks played defense, he might go against Amadi, the 744 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 2: rookie who looked horrendous last week, and then it really 745 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,719 Speaker 2: prevented the Seahawks from doing a lot of their more 746 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 2: complex defenses. He actually got hurt. So I mean Shuster 747 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 2: should have a field day this week, and you know, 748 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 2: look back, yeah he's yeah, Shusters banged up. But they 749 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 2: say he's going to go right, I should lose his bet, so. 750 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 3: You know, like you should just say this, this is 751 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 3: the bet is more predicated. 752 00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 2: I'm not afraid to buy the Steelers in a good 753 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 2: spot at home where they historically are great against the 754 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 2: spread under Tomlin, especially after a loss. You know, I 755 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 2: think the he's like sixty five percent against the spread 756 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 2: after a double digit loss. But it's more about the 757 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 2: Seattle defense. I rewatched the Seattle Cincinnati game and Cincinnati 758 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: could have had more yards. They could have had you know, 759 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 2: Ross could have had more yards. And it's their secondary. 760 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 2: He had some drops they miss Earl Thomas And I 761 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 2: mentioned it before the way the San Franz scheme Seattle team, 762 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 2: it's the Pete Carroll scheme. They're going to play a 763 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 2: lot of Cover three in the middle of the field, 764 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: closed safety, come down. They're going to try and stop 765 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: the run. But because if you do that, you're going 766 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 2: to have your free safety who needs to cover the 767 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 2: middle third of the field and he has a lot 768 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 2: of responsibility and they just don't have that right now. 769 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 2: And you could tell in that game there was also 770 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 2: a lot of miscommunication. There was some you know, missed 771 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: reads on who has who's covering who. I think the 772 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 2: Steers are really going to take advantage. You're gonna see 773 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 2: their offense is it's gonna look night and day. And 774 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 2: I don't as necessarily think it's Hey, the Steelers' offense 775 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 2: is back. It's look, I don't know who's covering Shuster 776 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 2: in the slot and Tedrick Thompson is not the answer 777 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 2: a free safety. They miss, they miss I can't even 778 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 2: explain to you from watching that game how much they 779 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 2: missed Earl Thomas in the middle. Patriots really solid defensive line. 780 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 2: They can defend this run. It's not a complex defense 781 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,879 Speaker 2: to prepare for. Their offensive line will give Broethlisberger time 782 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: and I think he can pick apart this Seattle secondary 783 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 2: just like Dalton did. I think it's spoke a lot 784 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 2: to Taylor's game planning and how more you know that 785 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 2: more modern offense you're going to see in Cincinnati. But 786 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 2: a lot of it also is the weaknesses on the 787 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 2: back end of that Seattle really raw secondary that misses 788 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 2: Earl Thomas. I think Steelers by seven plus. 789 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 3: I hesitate, you know, I think the issue for Seattle 790 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 3: in his game and probably why I lean you know 791 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 3: the under it is because Pittsburgh's run de it is 792 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 3: really strong. They held Sony Michelle to fourteen yards on 793 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 3: fifteen carries. They ranked number four in Pro Football Focuses 794 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 3: run defense grades as a team after one week. So 795 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 3: I do think that that's going to be an issue 796 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 3: for Seattle. But at the same time, it's like when 797 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 3: Seattle knows that they are not gonna be able to run, 798 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 3: that's when they tend to come out a little more aggressive. 799 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 3: And I wouldn't be surprised. Like if Pittsburgh plays man coverage, 800 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 3: book a Tyler Lockett touchdown, Like just book a deep 801 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 3: touchdown at Tyler Lockett, Book a deep touchdown to DK Metcalf. 802 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,240 Speaker 4: So like I think, though I should be three. 803 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 2: Look this is this fits into the bi low and 804 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 2: how bad they looked last week. They're coming home now 805 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 2: they don't have to deal with Gilmore locking up Schuster 806 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: and you know, instead of Gilmore following him around, maybe 807 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,240 Speaker 2: the best corner the NFL, it's gonna be Jamar Taylor 808 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 2: or Rookie Umati. I mean, the secondary for Seattle has 809 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 2: a long way to go. I mean Tetric TOMPs. I 810 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 2: think I was looking at a pro football focus he grated 811 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 2: out as a twenty five last week. Yeah, it's yeah, 812 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 2: and I and Thomas you got that. 813 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:56,879 Speaker 3: That's how Pittsburgh is gonna have to win this game. 814 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 3: They're going to have to, you know, be able to 815 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 3: move the ball through the air because I don't think 816 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 3: you are gonna be able to run a ton with 817 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 3: Wagner and kJ right in the middle. I think the 818 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 3: one concern for me probably is Ben Roethlisberger. You know, 819 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 3: does he start turning the ball over again if they're 820 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 3: trying to throw it, because that could also swing the 821 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 3: game for you. 822 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 4: It's just like, I get it. This is kind of 823 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 4: a stayaway for me. 824 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 3: Let's go now to our favorite total of the week, 825 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 3: our favorite over underpick. 826 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 4: It could be an over, it can be an under. 827 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 4: Stuck you start us off. 828 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 2: I'll keep it short and sweet. I like the Green 829 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 2: Bay Minnesota under if you follow me on the app, 830 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 2: you so I put that in at forty five, so 831 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 2: to forty four now, which makes it a little tougher. 832 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: But I think Green Bay is gonna go a little 833 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 2: slower and pace, which they did in Week one, but 834 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 2: that could have been some growing gains and playing against 835 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 2: the Bears. But I think they'll be on the slower side, 836 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 2: you know, early in the year as they're figuring out 837 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 2: their new offense. Obviously you're gonna have Minnesota, which did 838 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 2: look fast to neutral situations, but they're gonna run it 839 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: a ton and that's their new identity apparently on offense. 840 00:36:56,080 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 2: I love this Packers defense, this Minnesota defense's solid division game, 841 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 2: huge game. I think gets like you know, first to 842 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 2: twenty one wins, twenty one to seventeen. 843 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 4: Pack It looks like that is the sharp side. 844 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 3: See seventy one percent of the tickets on the under, 845 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 3: so the public is on it too, but eighty six 846 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 3: percent of the money is on the under. I think, 847 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 3: as you mentioned, a lot of that was hit you 848 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 3: know at that forty six and the forty five number. 849 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 3: But if you do want it still, I think you 850 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 3: do want to get it before if it drops any 851 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 3: lower than forty four, then then you're looking at just 852 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 3: a whole different kind of score. 853 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 4: You know, twenty four to twenty you can lose or whatnot. 854 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 3: So if you do still, I would get it at 855 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: forty four and probably nothing weller for my total, I 856 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 3: am going to go with Dallas Washington under forty six 857 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 3: and a half. I kind of waited out before. I 858 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: think both of these teams had an outlying amount of 859 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 3: explosive plays that they will now kind of look at 860 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 3: protect against that. 861 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 4: I think both teams will run the ball more. 862 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 3: You're going to have the Redskins not losing geist and 863 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 3: then having you know, no one else active to really 864 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 3: handle that load. And then for the Cowboys, I think 865 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,439 Speaker 3: they're going to ramp up Ezekiel Elliott's workload a bit. 866 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 4: They're on the road. 867 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 3: You just don't expect quite as many five works as 868 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 3: you do on the road as you do at home. 869 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 3: And I think it's Washington defense. You know, I know 870 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,320 Speaker 3: they gave up some place to Philly, but let's not 871 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 3: forget Philly. Pretty good offense. I think we all expected 872 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 3: that back at home. Washington still a solid I think 873 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 3: defense I do have some problems on at corner, Josh 874 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 3: Norman a shell of himself as well. 875 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 4: But I just think it's going to be a totally 876 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 4: different game script. 877 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 3: I think you're going to see a lot of ap 878 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: I think you're going to see a lot of the 879 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 3: I think this is one. 880 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 4: Of those ugly division games. 881 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 3: You know, we saw teams put up a lot of 882 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 3: points last week and then they come and they play 883 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 3: this divisional matchup and it, Yeah, it's just it's just 884 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 3: not what you expect. So like it under forty six 885 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 3: and a half with love it. If it got to 886 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 3: forty seven, don't think that is going to happen, but 887 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 3: if it does, I would really jump on it again. 888 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 3: I already got it at forty six and a half. 889 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 3: Now we'll quickly run through the remaining games that we 890 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 3: didn't hit on. We might hit on some of them 891 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 3: later on, but the cults are at the Titans. 892 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 4: Titans are favored by three in that one. I think 893 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 4: there might be some value on the Colts there. 894 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 3: Buffalo visiting the Giants, Buffalo favored by one and a 895 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 3: half sixty four percent of the tickets, but only forty 896 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 3: six percent of the money on the New York Giants 897 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 3: talked about a little bit, but Arizona Baltimore plus thirteen 898 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 3: to five. Arizona visiting Baltimore, that game I think is 899 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 3: going to be tough for Kyler Murray Jaguars at Houston 900 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 3: Gardner Minshew starting fifty four percent of the bet tickets 901 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,240 Speaker 3: but only eighteen percent of the money on the Houston 902 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 3: Texans Saints at the LA Rams. That line down to 903 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:38,240 Speaker 3: two and a half after opening at three, fifty nine percent. 904 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 4: Of the bet tickets on the. 905 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 3: New Orleans Saints and fifty eight percent of the money, 906 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 3: so sharp square agreement there not known real action. And 907 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 3: then we have the Chargers favored by two and a 908 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: half hosting the Detroit Lions. Stuck anything on that one. 909 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm waiting for this to get to three, and 910 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 2: I'm want to take the Lions. I mean, I'm really 911 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 2: low on this Chargers team, especially because of all their injuries. 912 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 2: All I mean, if you look just their injuries from 913 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 2: this past weekend. I was after Derwin James, but you 914 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,439 Speaker 2: know their corner Williams is on ir They just they're 915 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 2: all across the board, not even including Gordon. I think 916 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 2: they're fine at running back, but this offensive line is 917 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 2: a disaster. I mean, I think it's the worst offensive 918 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 2: line in football. So going on the road here without 919 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: Derwin James, my boy hawk, it's gonna have a huge 920 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 2: game at tight end. I just need that three. If not, 921 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:29,439 Speaker 2: it's a pretty good teasbece Sure. 922 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 3: We have the Kansas City Chiefs visiting the Oakland Raiders. 923 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 3: That line opened around seven and a half eight at 924 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 3: most spots down to seven. 925 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 4: Some sharp action backing the Raiders. Stuck anything there, Yeah, 926 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 4: I played. 927 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: I just played this on the number. I think the 928 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: Raiders might be a little better than people think. I 929 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 2: just don't think that the Chiefs are ten and a 930 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 2: half points better on a neutral field just yet. I 931 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 2: still have questions about their defense. I think it should 932 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 2: be six and a half seven. So I played it 933 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,479 Speaker 2: at seven and a half. Pure numbers play. 934 00:40:55,520 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 3: Start the car Chicago Bears at the Denver Broncos up 935 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 3: to a two and a half point favorites in that 936 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 3: game over under forty one. 937 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 4: Bears opened at one and a half. 938 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 3: We are seeing eighty one percent of the public, but 939 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 3: only seventy percent of the money on the Chicago Bears 940 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 3: at minus two to five. 941 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 4: Stuck anything on that one, Yeah, I don't care. 942 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,320 Speaker 2: How square this gets. I like the Bears here, extra 943 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 2: rest versus the Broncos on a short week, Flacco behind 944 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 2: an offensive line that now doesn't have its starting right tackle, 945 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 2: a bad offensive line against that Bears front seven that 946 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 2: was still flying around the secondary is still great. I 947 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 2: also split this first half money line. I've been over 948 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 2: this before on the pod and read about it. Trubisky's 949 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,439 Speaker 2: a lot better in the first quarter in scripted play. 950 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 2: See it kind of gets some of that in there. 951 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 2: I just think the Bears defense is way too good 952 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 2: in this Denver team, and I'm trying not to overreact 953 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,240 Speaker 2: to one week is bad. 954 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 4: All right, let's get in two our teaser segment. 955 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, six point teasers. 956 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 3: This segment is where Stuck and I each give our 957 00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 3: favorite two team teether And for those unfamiamiliar teasers, when 958 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 3: you can buy extra points that count toward the spread 959 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 3: for the teams that you have included in the teaser, 960 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 3: we'll give a two team teaser here, so you get 961 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 3: better odds to win essentially because you're getting extra points, 962 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 3: you know, smaller payouts, so you're kind of trading some 963 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 3: payout for some security here. But definitely a fun way 964 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 3: to bet if you're kind of sick of just doing 965 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 3: the same old you know, sides totals and whatnot, so stuck. 966 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 3: I know you have a great article up on Action 967 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 3: network dot com with your teaser strategies. 968 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:26,839 Speaker 4: We talked about it last weeks. 969 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 3: I don't want to kind of rehashle of that, but 970 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 3: just give us your favorite two team teaser for this week. 971 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you obviously want to go through the three 972 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 2: in the seven. So there's a bunch of options this week, 973 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 2: you know, even with the Panthers if you wanted to 974 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 2: start on Thursday night, the Lions, the Falcons. But my 975 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 2: favorite is the Saints and the Giants. I think Giants 976 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 2: Bills is going to be ugly as hell. So the 977 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 2: Giants sitting at one and a half point home dogs 978 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 2: against the Bills. This is a little overreaction with the 979 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,240 Speaker 2: Bills last week and the Giants getting blown out. These 980 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 2: are not These are two teams that are not that good. 981 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: Crossing the three and seven at home against the Bills. 982 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 2: I think it's huge with the Giants in a best 983 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 2: effort spot in their home opener and then the Saints 984 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: catching eight and a half. Look, folks want to get 985 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 2: cute knock, give give me three here, I'll get cuter 986 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 2: and I'll tease through the three and seven with the 987 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 2: Saints in a game that should be high scoring. Both 988 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 2: offenses should score. Saints obviously out for revenge, but keep 989 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:22,959 Speaker 2: in mind, if you look back at teams have lost 990 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 2: the AFC and NFC championship game when they play the 991 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 2: following year, the team that lost is only one like 992 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 2: forty percent of the time covered like forty five percent. 993 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 2: So you'll hear that revenge angle a lot doesn't really 994 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 2: mean anything. And just look at the matchups. Captain number 995 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 2: I wanted three to three and a half here, but 996 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 2: it doesn't look like I'm going to get it, So 997 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:41,720 Speaker 2: I'll tease it through the three and seven. 998 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 3: For my teaser, I am going to go with the 999 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 3: Falcons plus one five. I already mentioned that, so that's 1000 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 3: going through the three in the seven and then I 1001 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 3: am going to go against you and I'm going to 1002 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 3: take the forty nine ers another one and a half 1003 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 3: point underdog. So got two one and a half point underdogs. 1004 00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 2: I like the forty nine ers. This is a tease. 1005 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 2: Any tiny piez one and a half or two above 1006 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 2: the touchdown, I'm with you, so we both can win that. 1007 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,320 Speaker 4: Okay, cool, but you're gonna lose your pick though. But 1008 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 4: let's let's keep it going. Now. 1009 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 3: We're going to get into our money line parlay segment. 1010 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: Turning good weekends into great weekends. 1011 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 2: It's time for the money line parlay. 1012 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 3: In this segment, we each pick our favorite underdog on 1013 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 3: the money line and we will combine that into a 1014 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,919 Speaker 3: parlay bet and see what kind of odds we get. 1015 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 3: You can use the Action Network vetting calculator to do 1016 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 3: these kind of things at Action network dot com and 1017 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 3: in the Action Network app. 1018 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 4: Suck who you got. 1019 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 2: Look, I was gonna get a little crazy here and 1020 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 2: go back to the well. With the Jags. If you 1021 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: look back, they've owned Deshaun Watson. That's because Deshaun Watson 1022 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 2: gets absolutely no protection, yes, tonsil, but still just overall, 1023 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 2: I mean, he was getting hit all over the place 1024 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 2: against the States. The difference is the Jaguars have a 1025 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 2: much better secondary, They can at much better pressure, and 1026 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 2: that's why he's just had terrible numbers on hest two 1027 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 2: touchdowns at one pick and three games against the Jags. 1028 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 2: Both games are pretty ugly last year. I mean, look 1029 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 2: for Deshaun Watson two touchdowns across three games over two 1030 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 2: total touchdowns of three games. He does a lot for 1031 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 2: that team, and he's a magician back there, but it's 1032 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 2: just with no tight end over the middle of the field, 1033 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 2: and you know, I don't think he's going to be available. 1034 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 2: So I think the Jats can keep that close. They 1035 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 2: done number is crazy after what happened last week, but 1036 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 2: I'm not going to go there. I'm going to go 1037 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 2: with the Indianapolis Colts, who have dominated this year's I 1038 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 2: think they're eighteen and three. But the Titans. Look, we said, 1039 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 2: don't overreact to one week. The Titans. I remember back 1040 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 2: in twenty fifteen they won forty two to fourteen at 1041 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 2: the Bucks. The next week they lost to the pathetic Browns. Well, 1042 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 2: last week and I want to throw this ou out there, 1043 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 2: they covered by more than twenty eight points. This has 1044 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 2: only happened. A team in Week one covering by the 1045 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,240 Speaker 2: spread by twenty eight or more points has only happened 1046 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 2: nine prior times since twenty ten. I think, actually, if 1047 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 2: you go back to two thousand and seven and the 1048 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 2: following week the team is zero to nine against the spread. 1049 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 2: This week, we actually have two teams that qualify. The 1050 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 2: Ravens covered by more than twenty eight, and so did 1051 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,359 Speaker 2: the Titans. The Titans were kind of gifted that game. 1052 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 2: I mean, look, their offense looked a lot better. They're 1053 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 2: running a lot more play action. I thought the play 1054 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 2: calling was better. You know, obviously Brown had a huge 1055 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 2: game at receiver, even though Humphreys and Davis did nothing. 1056 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 2: There was obviously like two hundred yards of penalties the 1057 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 2: Browns had, but it was much more than that because 1058 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,280 Speaker 2: it took a call back a bunch of big plays. 1059 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: The Browns were so undisciplined. I love this Colts offensive line. 1060 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 2: This Colts offensive line has just been doing absolute work. 1061 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 2: I think they are the one of the best run 1062 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 2: blocking units in all of football. And I don't think 1063 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,280 Speaker 2: they're gonna have a ton of success throwing it against 1064 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 2: you know, the nickel packages of Tennessee with a lot 1065 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 2: of their talented corners. But look, they're going to feed 1066 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 2: back who has I think six hundred and sixty yards 1067 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty two carries in his last six 1068 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 2: games at six touchdowns. This running game is electric. I 1069 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 2: love it. They're just going to go and pound the ball. 1070 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 2: I like the Colts plus one fifty ish. 1071 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 4: I don't hate that at all. 1072 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 3: I think people are sleeping on Jacobi Brissett. That offense 1073 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 3: underfront right totally different from I think what we saw 1074 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,760 Speaker 3: you under Chuck Pagano and those guys in the previous regime. 1075 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 3: I am going to go for my pick, you know, 1076 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,759 Speaker 3: I'm going to go to Seattle Seahawks, and this goes 1077 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 3: back to last year. They're a team that can win 1078 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 3: every game, and they can lose every game. You know, 1079 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 3: sometimes they get a little bogged down by their their 1080 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,479 Speaker 3: kind of commitment to the run. 1081 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 4: I think this is a game where they. 1082 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 3: See how little success the Patriots had for much of 1083 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 3: that game running on Pittsburgh, and they do open it 1084 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 3: up a little and I think that works in Seattle slavor, 1085 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 3: and if Pittsburgh plays the same way, I think Pittsburgh 1086 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 3: is the more liable team to kind of turn the 1087 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 3: ball over and give you these kind of variants, essentially 1088 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 3: going in your favorite. So you have the Indianapolis Colts 1089 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,240 Speaker 3: plus one fifty at the Titans. I have the Seattle 1090 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 3: Seahawks plus one seventy at the Pittsburgh Steelers. 1091 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,399 Speaker 4: If you put a. 1092 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 3: One hundred dollars bet on that you would win five 1093 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 3: hundred and seventy five, So about whittle under a six 1094 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 3: to one and payout. 1095 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 4: So we'll see if that one can hit in. Now, 1096 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 4: we'll wrap it up by doing our Survivor pick of 1097 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 4: the week, one pick, one chance to advance Survivor. 1098 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 3: All right, both of our survivors kind of, I mean 1099 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 3: they barely hung on. Good thing we did back these 1100 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 3: teams against the spread, because I mean Seattle barely. Philadelphia 1101 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 3: looked like they were going to lose for part of 1102 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 3: that game as well. So we got this week stuff. 1103 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 2: I'm going with my boys a home against a rookie quarterback. 1104 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 2: Rookie quarterbacks in Baltimore have just been absolutely eaten alive 1105 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 2: under John Harbor over the last ten eleven years. I 1106 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 2: think that trend continues. Arizona's still no offensive line, still 1107 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 2: no corners, still questionable defense, Braydon should be able to 1108 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 2: move it up and down the field, huge special teams advantage. 1109 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 2: And look, if you look back by the way, this 1110 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 2: is a great pace differ different t mean the Cardinals 1111 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:02,760 Speaker 2: are gonna be the fastest tea in the NFL most likely. 1112 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:04,879 Speaker 2: The Ravens are obviously going to run out of a ton. 1113 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 2: I think the Cardinals are going to sell out. They're 1114 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,759 Speaker 2: missing both their starting corners. You'll hit some I think 1115 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,840 Speaker 2: the Ravens will hit some more plays down the field 1116 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,440 Speaker 2: with Andrews and or Brown, and I think the Ravens 1117 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 2: win easily. And look, keep this in mind. Everyone's getting 1118 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 2: excited about Kyler Murray, including my co host here, but 1119 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,920 Speaker 2: this game was done and dusted. It was over. I 1120 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,280 Speaker 2: think Kyler Murray was like nine of thirty for seven 1121 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 2: yards over the first three quarters against the Lions at home. 1122 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 2: Now with seventeen people in the stands. I'm kidding. They 1123 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 2: actually had a lot of people come out. But this 1124 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 2: is in Baltimore on the road against a really good secondary, 1125 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: even if it is missing Jimmy Smith, and I think 1126 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 2: things are going to get ugly here. So I'm going 1127 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 2: with the Ravens. 1128 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 3: I would go with the Ravens, but I think this 1129 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 3: youthton Texans team facing aokie, a rookie quarterback who's not 1130 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 3: the number one overhale pick, but just some guy, some 1131 00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 3: middle round guy Gardner minshew, I feel more confident going 1132 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 3: with the Texans in the spot. They're not as big 1133 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,919 Speaker 3: of a favorite, so I I you know, that does 1134 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 3: mean that technically the the Ravens have better odds to win, 1135 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 3: But I mean no, it's just I could see a 1136 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 3: web down spot. 1137 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 2: I can see spot. 1138 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 4: I love Tyler Murray. 1139 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:21,279 Speaker 2: You wouldn't use your survivor pick against him? 1140 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, but no, I would not use my survivor pick 1141 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 3: against him in this week because the Texans are going 1142 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,239 Speaker 3: against Gardner Minshew in his first start. Again, I think 1143 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,399 Speaker 3: they have better protection enough to win this game, whether 1144 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 3: it's ugly or not. 1145 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 4: I think the Texans. 1146 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 3: I just feel more confident about the Texans than I 1147 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,399 Speaker 3: do about you know, like the Cardinals randomly waking up 1148 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 3: like they did, you know. 1149 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 4: In the fourth quarter of last week. So yeah, I'm 1150 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 4: going Texan. 1151 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 3: Also, keep in mind, the Texans have a really difficult 1152 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 3: schedule for the most. 1153 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 4: Part this year. 1154 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 3: So if I can get a chance to use him 1155 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 3: early on against a rookie quarterback in his first start 1156 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 3: versus you know, the number one overall pick in a second, 1157 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 3: I just feel more confident go in that direction. 1158 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,439 Speaker 4: So that's where I'm I'm going. 1159 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 3: We'll see how it all plays out, see if I 1160 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 3: can maintain my leader. If you make a ferocious comeback 1161 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,759 Speaker 3: and overtake me next week.
