We're sitting up to cash Toto. 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,920 Speaker 4: We see most gambleers when they go to gamble, they 6 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 4: go to win. 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: That's incredible. 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 2: Being bank small, I like to make money. 9 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 3: All right, this is the ultimate kabine you want to pass. 10 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: And we are underway. Welcome into our late night, early 11 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: Monday morning rephrase it because this is not the Sunday 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: night recap episode. This is the Monday morning NFL Week 13 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: five recap episode. Brendan Glasheen back in the host chair, 14 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: joined by our Director of Research Media, Evan Abrams, with 15 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: Brandon Anderson, one of our NFL contributors. Yep, it's late, 16 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: we're here. We just saw the ending of Dallas and 17 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,639 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh goes down to the wire. There's a weather delay. 18 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: Game doesn't start till nine to forty five Eastern, So 19 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 1: we're gonna rip right through this slate. There are bye weeks, 20 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: thank god, so there's not as many games to talk about. 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: But Dallas gets there twenty seventeen. We'll just start right there. 22 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: I'll toss to you, Brandon, your knee jerk reaction to Dallas. 23 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: Tolbert scores the touchdown with twenty seconds to spare on 24 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: fourth and goal. Dallas as a short dog gets there outright, 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 1: and the total delivers under forty four. 26 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, another's Steelers under. That's my takeaway and under how 27 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 3: many times I like to think too much more about 28 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 3: this game? To be honest, it was a rough one. 29 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 3: We waited a long time and then I was just like, 30 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 3: come on, can we just can we be done if 31 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: rewarded us with some extra energy at the end of 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 3: the night. We got some touchdown drives both ways, but 33 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 3: not a lot here. I think Dallas getting to three 34 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: and two Pittsburgh dropping the three and two feels about right. 35 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 3: So it's like we kind of had to do it 36 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: this way to even things out in the world. 37 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: Evan from a betting perspective, anything here on Dallas getting 38 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: there a big public side to close out the close 39 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: out the weekend, Yeah, I. 40 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: Mean, overall, I don't think we learned too much about 41 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: either team in this scenario. Pittsburgh's defense showed up the 42 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: underhit they could have. You know, either team could have 43 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: won on the last play of the game. I think 44 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,399 Speaker 2: the thing we just keep seeing, I mean Dak had 45 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: what three turnovers in this game, two in the red zone, 46 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 2: just continues to try to do his best to hold 47 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: them up, but you know, didn't play extremely well, turning 48 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 2: over the ball a ton. And also there wasn't many 49 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: targets for Ceede Lamb in the second half. I believe 50 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: that first target came, you know, midway for a fourth 51 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: quarter potentially, so that was something I was looking at. 52 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: But overall, I mean six to three at the half, 53 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: game still goes under field, had like thirty five passing 54 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: yards at the half, ended with like a buck twenty something. 55 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: I don't think he's the answer. I don't think Russ 56 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 2: is the end. But I think Pittsburgh has such a 57 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: great defense that they've just kind of figured out a 58 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: way and they can win next week game too. I mean, 59 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: they're in Vegas, so I think that's as good of 60 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: a coin flip and they'll be favorite anyway. 61 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: So we are live on the Action Network YouTube channel, 62 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: so please subscribe to our channel if you have not 63 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: done so already, please like the video if you enjoy 64 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: this late night early morning content.

Leave your five star ratings and reviews. Kyle 67 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: Allen looked pretty good to be that one ball over 68 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: the middle. I was like, more of this, please. I 69 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: think even though Fields was in the tent, I fell 70 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: Allen gave a wake up call to the Pittsburgh offense 71 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: and justin Field just you got to get rid of 72 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: the ball. And I know Collinsworth was harping on this constantly, 73 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: but man, yeah, Dallas still some wartz there. The body language. 74 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: I try my best to understand that they put a 75 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: lot of hours in. It's not just the three and 76 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: a half hours that we watch each week, and we're 77 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: watching body language, sideline coaching players, the Lamb Prescott thing, 78 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: and they're connected right to contract extensions. Those guys are 79 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: going to be there for a while. So we think 80 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: some stuff to still figure out there from the Dallas side. 81 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: But they get there despite the turnover margin. They went 82 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,799 Speaker 1: out right twenty seventeen earlier in the day, and to think, Brandon, 83 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: go ahead. 84 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 2: I'll give you two more here as well. Justin Field's 85 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: a dot in this game. Averaged up the target almost 86 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: eleven so chucking downfield when he had to, and also 87 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 2: just he never seems to end up scoring enough points 88 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 2: in these games. We've had those stats about, you know, 89 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: when his opponent scored twenty or more. Obviously, in this scenario, 90 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: twenty points exactly for Dallas, but it just you know, 91 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 2: he never ends up actually getting to that twenty work, 92 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: which actually ended up being the dizil result today and 93 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: the difference. 94 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: Brandon just said this before he went on to think 95 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: that games started this morning at eight am his time, 96 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: nine am Eastern. That's also kind of wild to pick 97 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: apart in compartmentalize. One o'clock games were pretty good today 98 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: Baltimore Cincinnati, it was a doozy went to overtime Baltimore 99 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: forty one to thirty eight overtime winners. They do get 100 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: there to cover the two and a half total goes 101 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: way over, of course, forty seven and a half. Brandon, 102 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: your takeaway here with the Ravens getting there in a 103 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: back and forth. 104 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: Game, Yeah, I think early candidate for game of the 105 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: year so far. Just a really fun one is to 106 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: recap some of the crazy stuff. So right before halftime, 107 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: Baltimore is effectively in what should have been prevent just 108 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 3: trying to keep it in front of you with like 109 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 3: twenty seconds left and they get hit with a bomb 110 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 3: over the top to Jamar Chase, like the one thing 111 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: you can't allow. You're just trying to a lot that 112 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,239 Speaker 3: and like them in a field goal range that turns 113 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 3: into a touchdown an a lad hit, so eight free points. 114 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 3: They got the safety just before that, so it should 115 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 3: have been fourteen seven is fourteen seventeen. Instead, we start 116 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: the second half. Hope you didn't have the under on 117 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,799 Speaker 3: this one. Six straight touchdowns to start the second half. 118 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: Then the Bengals are still just kind of barely ahead, right, 119 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 3: that's the whole second half. As they're hanging on. Joe 120 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: Burrow throws a rough interception throughout the thirty three. They're 121 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: up three with three minutes left. Touchdown seals it. Field 122 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 3: goal at least gives you a pretty good shot here. 123 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: Instead the Rams getting a field go range. Our guy 124 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 3: Justin Tucker finally makes a fifty yarder. Right, he's the 125 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 3: one guy that's not hitting those. So we got overtime. 126 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 3: And I have to say, it seems like whoever gets 127 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 3: the ball wins this, and that's what it felt like. 128 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: The Ravens get the ball, they start marching on the field. 129 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson decides this is a great time to throw 130 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: a bounce past the Cincinnati right, just like a classic 131 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: basketball bounce pass right to Pratt should have been a 132 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 3: lockoff touchdown for Cincinnati. On the defense, they tackle him 133 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 3: to a minus six point five EPA. Play like these 134 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: are the exact sort of plays the fumbles that Lamar 135 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 3: Jackson consistently has had his whole career. And then we 136 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 3: forget this nine interception and it's it's it's not the 137 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: stat that stands out like you gave the game away. 138 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 3: You we got them in the game to that point, 139 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: with all the great stats, but gave the game away 140 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: tackle of the thirty eight. Cincinnati runs three times straight 141 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 3: into the line, kicks the fifty three yardfield goal and 142 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 3: for once and misses it, and then Derrick Henry fifty 143 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 3: one yard. I thought for a second we might get 144 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: the Derek Henry hundred yards and two scores thing, but 145 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: we would have been three yards short anyways, so we 146 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: got there. In my notes, I wrote Cincinnati season over. However, 147 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 3: the Bengals are one and four now they're I went 148 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 3: three at home. Defense gave up five hundred and twenty 149 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 3: yards in this game. You're not supposed to lose when 150 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 3: you score thirty eight at home, right. However, three the 151 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 3: next four games Giants, Browns, Raiders. Here's the thing. The 152 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,239 Speaker 3: Bengals offense is playing, maybe better than they ever have before. 153 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 3: They are number two in EPA per drive and number 154 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: two in success rate. I have more to say about 155 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: the Bengals later when we get to the hot read. 156 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: I'm actually upgrading the Bengals a little bit. Game the 157 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 3: game after this one I'm gonna downgrade the Ravens defense 158 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 3: here gives up three and seventy one passing yards. Jamar 159 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: Chase had almost two hundred yards and two scores. T 160 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 3: Higgins had nine catches and two scores. The Ravens have 161 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 3: won three in a row, but I'm not really sure 162 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: they know who they are yet, Like, how do you 163 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 3: not have a huge Derrick Henry game here against the 164 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 3: defense that hasn't been stopping anyone. Instead, we got Lamar 165 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: al a game, and I honestly I know I'm the 166 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 3: Lamar guy, but I think the more valuable Lamar looks, 167 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 3: the worse the actual Ravens team is. And they got 168 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 3: it around at the end. The defense made the plays, 169 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 3: Derrick Henry made the plays. I think Derrick Henry is 170 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 3: the MVP for this team so far they get over 171 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 3: the line. But I'm gonna think a little less of 172 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 3: the Ravens after this and a little more of the Bengals, 173 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 3: even though it's the opposite of the result. 174 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some parallels there to how you evaluate NBA 175 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: MVP in some regards, right, But yeah, what do you think, 176 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: Evan anything on that? It was that great of a game. 177 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: If you want to get a word in, I just yeah, 178 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 2: best game of the day by far. Also, the game 179 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 2: really earliest in the week when we had the highest total, 180 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: so we kind of expected this game might have some fireworks. 181 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 2: One team can't stop the pass the other team. You know. 182 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: Burrow had like, you know, nine touchdowns and one interception 183 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: at some point that entering this game. So he had 184 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: been playing well anyway, and we've been talking about him 185 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: potentially winning the MVP. That was a fun ticket entering 186 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: this week at one in four. I don't exactly know 187 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 2: how he gets there, unless you know, yeah, the path 188 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 2: doesn't seem clean. But interesting you brought up that Henry 189 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 2: discussion because we're gonna talk maybe we're gonna talk MVP 190 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 2: at the end of year, because I know you had 191 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 2: set that up. So the Lamar versus Henry and how 192 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: much is leading towards Baltimore's success since obviously they're near 193 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: the top end the numbers look great. Is a fascinating conversation, 194 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: you know. 195 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 3: And I actually went from Bengals are going to miss 196 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 3: the playoffs they're cooked to looking up Joe burrow MVP odds. 197 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 3: When I saw the schedule, I was like, all right, 198 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 3: well he's lighting it up. The stats are all good. 199 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: His quarterback stats are good individually. I looked as far 200 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 3: as I know, I think his MVP it's actually dropped. 201 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 3: Today they lose the game, his odds went down. He's 202 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 3: now like the sixth favorite at one and four. You 203 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 3: could pretty much have to win out from here or 204 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 3: pretty close to it to win MVP. They could. The 205 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 3: offense is playing that well, the defense is not there. 206 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 3: So I don't know. I think maybe if you're looking 207 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 3: for a bet comeback player of the Year, maybe we 208 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: thought that'd be one of the guys. Between Aaron Rodgers, 209 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, and Joe Burrow. Well, one of the three 210 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 3: is playing way better than the other two right now. 211 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: So I don't know. Where DeMar Hamlin factor is in, 212 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 3: and maybe that just wins over everything. But of the 213 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: three quarterbacks, I think Burrow is like plus eight hundred 214 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 3: or nine hundred. I think it'd rather have of that 215 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 3: ticket right now than Rodgers or Cousins. So maybe if 216 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 3: he can't quite get the MVP but just has a 217 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 3: big season like this, that may be an alternate way 218 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 3: to reward him. 219 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 2: The other takeaway is also Taylor's play calling in overtime, 220 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: especially like you had them on their heels the entire 221 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: game and you decided to try to run the ball 222 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 2: to settle for like a fifty three yard field goal 223 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: in that scenario, when you probably should have ran it 224 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 2: down there through passing and you probably would have gotten 225 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 2: much closer to the end zone and probably won the game. 226 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: So I just always feel like between him and McDermott. 227 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: We talked about the Bills last week, but those good teams, 228 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: those coaches kind of hold them back. I really feel 229 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 2: that way about Taylor. 230 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow said that the Bengals are not a championship team. 231 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: There's gonna be some tough conversations that guys aren't gonna 232 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: like makes sense. At one and four, Green Bay and 233 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: Los Angeles was the Nance Romo game on CBS four 234 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: thirty window. Green Bay holds on twenty four to nineteen. 235 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 1: Packers minus three gets there. Total goes under forty nine 236 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: and a half. The Rams are so so banged up, 237 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: but the Packers hold on there. 238 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: Evan, Yeah, lucky enough. The Rams do have a buy 239 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: coming up which they can definitely use at this point. 240 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: But the game completely and honestly just a real frustrating 241 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: game all around. If you had the Rams, I feel 242 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,719 Speaker 2: like a couple of times you said to yourself, Art, 243 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 2: we're going to get the back door, We're gonna get close, 244 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: especially even in the two point conversion of the end, 245 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: you were like, you know, last guess that you know 246 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 2: it could be here, and then you get the ball back. 247 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: Just frustrating all around. But I feel like it all 248 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 2: changes with the Kyne fumble. Rams are up three on 249 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 2: the Green Bay twenty seven start the second half, You 250 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: feel like the game's gonna go one direction and then 251 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: leads you right to the Craft touchdown game changer. The 252 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 2: crazy stat that they were telling me, which I didn't 253 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: know during the game, is Zavier McKinney having a takeaway 254 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 2: his first five games with the Packers, being the only 255 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 2: player to ever do that in his first five games 256 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: with the team, so just crazy, and then scoring another 257 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 2: Craft touchdown off another takeaway by the Packers in that scenario, 258 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: So the onslaught just kind of continued and continued and continued. 259 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: And also if you look at it, Green Bay, one 260 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: of eight on third down, six penalties under two hundred 261 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 2: passing yards, got out rushed and one on the road, 262 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 2: So it just felt like an odd victory all around. 263 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 2: And the Rams still kind of felt like the right 264 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: side the numbers just going down the list though. Kyraen 265 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 2: Williams I believe now scored a touchdown an eight straight 266 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: regular season game, so absolute workhorse. Kind of funny. We 267 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 2: were talking about that Blake Korum stuff a lot in 268 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 2: the preseason Kirens, you know, aside from a fumble or so, 269 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: in this game, just touchdown machine. Rams pass defense is 270 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 2: just atrocious just all around, and honestly, nine point one 271 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 2: four entering this game, eight point six and Love didn't 272 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 2: even look good. So going forward and we'll see if 273 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: they get healthier after the bye, but just absolutely disgusting, 274 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: and from that point of view, the offensive line was 275 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: probably the last thing I looked at their past block 276 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: grade was atrocious. Walking in they've allowed three more sacks 277 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: now it's up to seventeen and five games. Stafford just 278 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: getting beat up out there, so it's just making it 279 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: tougher for them to cover numbers. 280 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Dafford and McVeigh. They're trying to soak every ounce out 281 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: of what they've got. Stafford looked gassed at moments too. 282 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: They'd like to pick in the second half was uncharacteristic, 283 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: just kind of running, running for his life. He's not 284 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: a mobile guy, but like just they're hanging on by 285 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: a needle. But like you said, they've got the bye 286 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: week coming up. Also, remember our draft episodes last year, 287 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 1: Like Tucker Craft, I mean, maybe he should have been 288 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: the first tight end off the board because my god, 289 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: but that might be just be a credit to the 290 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: floor and how they used tight ends in that system. 291 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna give you one more stat. Stafford 292 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: two and fourteen straight up his last sixteen games as 293 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: an underdog, not a five and fourteen straight up with 294 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: just him and McVay trying to win his underdog So 295 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 2: just don't really work for them in the role. 296 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: Buffalo and Houston in the one o'clock window. The Texans 297 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: get there twenty three to twenty. They covered the short number. 298 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: There was a money line plate some slight juice, but 299 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: minus one, minus one and a half under forty seven 300 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: and a half. I hate to, you know, pile on Buffalo. 301 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys talked about this last Sunday night, 302 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: But WHOA, I don't know who you blame there, Brady McDermott. 303 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: You're the head coach, so the head coach gets some 304 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: blame to the quarterback. What's going on there with some 305 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: of that decision making throwing the ball so deep at 306 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: the end of the game, Brandon. 307 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, the late game sequencing is why. So Stroud gets 308 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 3: an intentional grounding of the thirty nine. So it's you know, 309 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 3: they're forty seconds left, you're gonna have a chance for 310 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 3: the field goal. It seems it's a tie game, so 311 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: they have to punt, right, So they punt it down 312 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 3: to the three. There's thirty two seconds left. Houston has 313 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 3: all timeouts still all three. So Buffalo, like, at the 314 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 3: very least run the ball three times and make them 315 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 3: burn the timeouts. Maybe you do like a short pass, 316 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: that's a guaranteed completion, try to do a screen sort 317 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 3: of thing. The last thing you're doing here is dropping 318 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: back into the end zone risking a safety. Safety loses 319 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: the game for you at this point, and just chucking 320 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 3: it deep down the field into coverage. Really, they ran 321 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 3: three plays. They didn't run, They passed free plays, took 322 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 3: eleven seconds off the clock, no timeouts for Houston, so 323 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 3: he'ston gets the ball back in Buffalo territory, has time 324 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 3: to run a five yard pass, calls timeout, and then 325 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 3: the way we know all season, the fifty nine yard 326 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 3: field goal. Of course, Kenny Fairburn's Gonn hit the fifty 327 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 3: nine yard like this is what we We just make 328 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 3: field goals like like like that, like they're nothing. So 329 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 3: it was a weird game. Buffalo, I thought was pretty 330 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 3: lifeless in the first half. Offensively, they weren't doing anything. 331 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 3: They're not moving the ball at all. Second half, they 332 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 3: get a couple of touchdowns, then Houston tries to get 333 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 3: the ball away CJ. Stroud, bad interception, then a strip sack. 334 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 3: Buffalo got very little. 335 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: Out of that. 336 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 3: They kind of just run the line and get a 337 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 3: field goal out of it. It felt like both teams 338 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: are trying to give the game away here in Buffalo. 339 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 3: I guess one at giving the game away at the end. 340 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 3: Just a weird game, A weird game for I certainly 341 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 3: I was on Buffalo's was one of my top plays 342 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 3: of the week. Josh Allen, here's his actual stat line. 343 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 3: Nine for thirty passing for the day. That's a batting average. 344 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: Nine for thirty is a three hundred batting average, not 345 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 3: a completion percentate. 346 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: That's like, that's like old Russell Westbrook from the field, 347 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: like shooting with this runner. 348 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 3: One for fifty team on throws over ten yards. That 349 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 3: to me is Houston saying, you know what, go ahead 350 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: and drop back. We got Steffon Diggs now, and we 351 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 3: don't think your receivers can beat us. And it turned 352 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: out that they were right in this game. Alan did 353 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 3: leave late, had a concussion check. So we'll have to 354 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 3: keep an eye on that. You go from three and 355 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: oh to three and two real fast in this league. 356 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 3: It turns out next Monday night, Bill's that Jets. We'll 357 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 3: get to Jets shortly. Both of those teams suddenly are like, man, 358 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 3: we lose that game. Our season is in a spiral, 359 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 3: So that suddenly is a big one to circle for 360 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 3: next Monday Night. 361 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I mean you're right though. I mean remember 362 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: the Bills, they throttle the Jaguars and then Alan and 363 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: the Holmes become co MVP, and we're gonna do MVP later. 364 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: So stay tuned for that because Brandon's got some angles 365 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: that might relate to Monday night's game, which we also 366 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: have discussion on. But those guys were co favorites for MVP. 367 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: Now all of a sudden, Allen's plus seven to fifty 368 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: plus eight hundred win MVP.

I thought the parent Trap 379 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: celebration was the takeaway from the game that was freaking 380 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:47,959 Speaker 1: fantastic by your Minnesota Vikings. Brandon Vikings win twenty three seventeen. 381 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: They cover the short number of two and a half. 382 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: Total goes under forty two and a half. Is this 383 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: game about the Vikings or do we have to crap 384 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 1: on the Jets and their Well, they were better in 385 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: the second half, but it's some ineptitude by a lot 386 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: of the starts at the quarterback. 387 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think it's gotta be about the Jets. 388 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 3: The Vikings are five and zero into the bye week, right, 389 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: just like we all predicted. I don't know how we 390 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 3: got here. I'm gonna keep wearing my Vikings jersey every 391 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 3: time the Vikings win a game. I'm just gonna show 392 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,239 Speaker 3: up with it on the show again. We'll switch when 393 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 3: I have to it. Just watching this game, you know, 394 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 3: you watch a team like this, like the Jets, in 395 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 3: the middle of like eight games on NFL Red Zone, 396 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 3: you don't get to necessarily like zooming and focus. You 397 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 3: watch just one game like this and focus in for 398 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 3: the whole three hour, dreadful experience. It's just so obvious 399 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 3: seeing one side versus the other. One coaching staff is 400 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 3: making it so easy. It's making it so easy for 401 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 3: Sam Darnold and making it harder on the opponent. The 402 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 3: other staff is the Jets, and it's just like there's 403 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 3: nothing there. It's just all short passes, just dump offs 404 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 3: to Garrett Wilson. ESPN has stat Garret Wilson, So thirteen 405 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 3: one hundred and one yards in a score seems pretty good. 406 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 3: He'd over he had twenty targets in this game, one 407 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 3: hundred and one yards, the second lowest on record for 408 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: ESPN for receiver with at least twenty targets. And guess 409 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: what the lowest one was DeVonta Adams in twenty fifteen. 410 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 3: Also Aaron Rodgers. Rogers just checks it down and gets 411 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 3: rid of the ball when he doesn't have better ideas. 412 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 3: And right now this offense for the Jets does not 413 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 3: have better ideas. They can't run the ball. Fourteen carries 414 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 3: for thirty six yards two and a half yards of carry. 415 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 3: They can't do anything. They're just dumping it off Aaron Rodgers. 416 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: First time in his career he has two first quarter interceptions, 417 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 3: finishes with three gets a pick six in there, four 418 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 3: and a half yards per attempt. Honestly, I thought both 419 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 3: quarterbacks are bad. I thought Sam Darnold was pretty bad 420 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 3: in this game. Also, Rodgers just got punished for his mistakes. 421 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,479 Speaker 3: Neither team was really good here. The difference is that 422 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 3: Minnesota finds a way to make not very good work 423 00:20:59,000 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 3: a quiet thing. 424 00:20:59,720 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 5: I know. 425 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson six for ninety two not really a stat 426 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 3: line up, Pops, that's just another Jefferson game. He drew 427 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,959 Speaker 3: five first down penalties, including three on one drive, and 428 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 3: that was the only drive Minnesota scored a touchdown on. 429 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 3: These poor Jets defensively are doing their job just like 430 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 3: they were last year. But it's not Zach Wilson anymore. 431 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: It was supposed to get fixed. Now. I don't know 432 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 3: if I'm the defense, Like, how can I keep showing 433 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 3: up and doing this every game? Aaron Rodgers and Garrett 434 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 3: Wilson and Bryce Holler are supposed to do the thing. 435 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: It's just not happening. Last thing I forgot to note 436 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 3: to the biggest play of the game was Sam Darnald 437 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 3: making a shoe string tackle right Donald leaves hurt for 438 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 3: one play, comes back in. They get the fumble on 439 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 3: the pitch. Should have been a fumble six or whatever 440 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 3: we call that. The other way for the Jets. Sam 441 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 3: Donald makes the shoe string tackle and a couple of 442 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 3: plays later, Aaron Rodgers throw the pick six. That is 443 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 3: a fourteen point swing in a six point game. That 444 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 3: is why the Vikings won the game, and that is 445 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 3: why the Jets lost. And by the way, Aaron Rodgers 446 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 3: looked pretty disinterested trying to make a tackle on that 447 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 3: pick six. Can't blame him at that age. But it's 448 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 3: just the difference between these teams is one of them 449 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 3: is making those plays, the other one is the Jets. 450 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then now they got Buffalo next. This was 451 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: supposed to be one of those games that you're like, 452 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: all right, get right, but you know, I know, favorites 453 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:27,719 Speaker 1: do well in London Historically, Arizona visiting San Francisco, the 454 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: forty nine ers got shut out in a half. That's 455 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: crazy to think they get shut out. In the second half. 456 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,199 Speaker 1: Arizona outscores them fourteen zip in the second half, Cardinals 457 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 1: outright twenty four to twenty three. They cover the touchdown spread, 458 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: the total goes under. This game felt like it was 459 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: going to be soaring into the Ravens Bengals territory. The 460 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: way that first half was played, we saw thirty points 461 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: scored in the thirty three points scored in the first 462 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: half of that game. Evan Cardinals get there and they 463 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: get their second win. The NFC West, I think that's 464 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: where my mind goes. The NFC West is now just 465 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: a it's all over the place. 466 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 2: It's all over the place. And this is honestly my 467 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 2: stat of the day as well, since obviously every single 468 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 2: week we have NFL Action, the biggest underdog tends to 469 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 2: find its way to the cash wind, no even straight 470 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 2: up sometimes, So NFL Dogs now have six plus are 471 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 2: eleven and eight straight up, which you almost have to 472 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: pause in itself to consider how wild that is through 473 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: through five weeks in total, seeing if that Monday night 474 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 2: game is going to get to that six number. But 475 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,959 Speaker 2: eleven and eight straight up and sixteen to two and 476 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 2: one against the spread in those nineteen games, that is 477 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 2: the best mark I went back to nineteen sixty. If 478 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 2: I kept going back, it would probably be the best ever. 479 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, best first time over five hundred straight up 480 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: for those six plus point dogs through five weeks in 481 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty and best ats percentage. And here's just the 482 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 2: best of it all. And I'll stop and move on 483 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 2: to the actual game after this. But if you take 484 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 2: out New England from those six plus numbers, it's actually 485 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 2: fifteen zero to one ats for six plus dogs this year. 486 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 2: So just stupid, stupid numbers. But if you look at 487 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 2: this game with Arizona and San Francisco, I guess specifically, 488 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: I just didn't think Arizona could score twenty four points 489 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 2: with Kyler having under two hundred passing yards. Now, obviously 490 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: he had that long rush to start the game, which 491 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,400 Speaker 2: kind of you know, an extra fifty yards maybe you'd 492 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 2: have gotten in another circumstance, but he has a negative 493 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: EPA per play in this one on dropbacks, really doesn't 494 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 2: play great from that position, but Purdy has some turnovers, 495 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 2: and the biggest plays from win play probability added are 496 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 2: the party interception to Ayuk in the fourth and the 497 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 2: Jordan Mason fumble. Those are the two plays that pretty 498 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 2: much turned this game and kept San Francisco from winning 499 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 2: when they were winning early on. I mean, San Francisco's 500 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 2: rundee was probably one of the bigger issues and kept 501 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 2: Arizona in the game when they shouldn't have been, which 502 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: is six point five yards per carry. San Francisco's more penalties, 503 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 2: more turnovers three to one, and honestly, you also look 504 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: at the box and just say to yourself, where was debo? 505 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 2: Three carries nine yards, three targets, one reception. The stat 506 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 2: I keep using, I know Simon and others have used 507 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 2: it as well. Pretty favored by four points or more. 508 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: He's now nine and thirteen against the number. When he's 509 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 2: favored by three and a half or less. For a dog, 510 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 2: he's eight and two against the number. So just kind 511 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 2: of having a little bit of issues when having to 512 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 2: cover big numbers, and Kyler kind of covers in the 513 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 2: spot too. Sixty three percent ATS is a dog in 514 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 2: his career and above plus four he's thirteen five and two, 515 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 2: So just a good spot for him and something we 516 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 2: really haven't been able to say in a long time. 517 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 2: So the Cardinals are covered three straight versus the NFC West. 518 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 2: I think they were like one in thirteen ATS in 519 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: their previous fourteen before that, So just you know, taking 520 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 2: a different direction. I think we've seen a different Arizona 521 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: team to start the season. We saw it against Buffalo 522 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: early in the year. In that first half, they look good. 523 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: They look good against San Francisco. Those are two really 524 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: good teams. Then I don't think we were able to 525 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 2: see a complete Arizona game. And now next week they 526 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 2: get Green Bay, which is going to be a whole 527 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: other test since their defense is pretty good too, So 528 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: we'll see really fast if Arizona is what they thought 529 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: what we think they are. But we like Betanan, that's 530 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 2: for sure. 531 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, and coming off a real clunker right against against Washington, 532 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: so get right spot there for Arizona just to look right. 533 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: And even though they didn't look great, San Francisco is 534 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: worse Indy Jacksonville. This was another one. Doug Peterson, whoa. 535 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: It felt like they were probably gonna let him go 536 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: out right when this thing ended, because Joe Flacco was 537 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: elite and fantastic down the stretch. But the Jaguars Brandon 538 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: survive thirty seven thirty four. The line closed at three, 539 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: so you pushed no matter what side you went there. 540 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: Over forty four and a half, the Jaguars get their 541 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: first win of the season, but Joe Flacco did and 542 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce did not make it easy. 543 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. A happy twenty fifth birthday to Trevor Lawrence. For 544 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 3: your birthday, we got you your first win in three 545 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 3: hundred and fourteen days as the starting quarterback of the 546 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 3: Jacksonville Jaguars. Yikes, first win in ten starts at a 547 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 3: career highd passing yards. Here's the difference for Lawrence today, 548 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 3: zero sacks. He barely get pressured all game. That is 549 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 3: what has not been going well for Jacksonville season. And 550 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 3: Jacksonville's offense really only works when they get the long balls. 551 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 3: They got a twenty one to twenty eight, sixty one 552 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 3: and eighty five yard passes in this one. So before 553 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 3: you get too excited that Jacksonville's scoring, now, that was 554 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 3: a Gus Bradley Indy special here today, no pressure in 555 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 3: a secondary that's beatable. I'm not sure that necessarily fixed 556 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 3: things yet for Jacksonville. If you had the under forty 557 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 3: four and a half rip, we got twenty to ten 558 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: into the fourth quarter, then forty one points in the 559 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: fourth quarter. Right get to the witching hour and Scott 560 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 3: Hansen is going over to Jacksonville, Indy like every second 561 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 3: play on my screen the whole time. So we got 562 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 3: a lot of action here late comeback, like you said, 563 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 3: Flacco and Peers getting making it interesting. But Jacksonville does 564 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 3: get the three point win late Brandon, I have in 565 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 3: my notes that the Colts mostly most books covered finished 566 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 3: at like three and a half or four. And that's 567 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 3: interesting to me because I think the Colts cover the 568 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 3: closing number, and if they did, only their third cover 569 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 3: in nineteen games against Jacksonville one of the weirdest, stupidest stats. 570 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 3: That makes no sense to me whatsoever. Colts didn't get 571 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: the win, but I think they did what really mattered. 572 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 3: They covered that half point and got off the schneid. 573 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: Finally, I think you're right my fault. Also, it's what 574 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: like the Colts tenth straight loss snow in Jacksonville. 575 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't like playing in Florida. 576 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: Jeez. I also got I think Favorites were undefeated straight 577 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: up in that early window. 578 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 3: Which well except for this one though. 579 00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, well straight up, straight uh. 580 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, straight all right, straight up. They covered every game 581 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 3: in the early window also except for this half point 582 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 3: here correct. 583 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: Wow, Wow, Giants at Seahawks. The Giants, speaking back to 584 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: Evan's point, a touchdown Dog wins outright against Seattle twenty 585 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: nine to twenty crazy, ending to this one. A blocked 586 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: field goal returned for a touchdown that would have tied 587 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: the game, but the kick is blocked, Giants take it back. 588 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: Total goes over as well. Yeah, I mean it probably 589 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: would have gone to overtime anyway, but who knows, maybe 590 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have been scoring anyway, goes over. Giants win 591 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: their second game. 592 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 2: Evan. Yeah, and so this was like six and a 593 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 2: half or so day or two before kick got to 594 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 2: seven and kind of just stood there. Obviously, line didn't 595 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: matter too much in this one. The interesting part is 596 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 2: you look at actions data from like a betting public 597 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 2: point of view. Number one public side was Buffalo Yike's 598 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 2: number two was this Seattle team. So second bigger public 599 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 2: side goes down. Public sizes are six and seven ats, 600 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 2: so now twenty eight forty five and two against the 601 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 2: spread this season, still worse through five weeks, so not 602 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 2: much better this week all around. But looking at this 603 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 2: game just the beginning kind of started out, you would 604 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 2: be surprised to hear that Seattle lost this game. When 605 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 2: the first drive Seattle punt five plays. Then the Giants 606 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 2: have a sixteen play seventy nine yard drive which gets 607 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 2: him to first and goal at the five two plays 608 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 2: from the one and ends up with one hundred and 609 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 2: two yard bumble for a touchdown on the other way 610 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 2: for Seattle, and then you get yourself. Oh and Seattle 611 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 2: actually still loses this game and almost felt like they 612 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: were never in it the entire time, which is just 613 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 2: very odd to say that such a bounce broke their 614 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 2: way and then never mattered. And how well Seattle's been playing, 615 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 2: how well Gino's been playing. He was top ten an 616 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 2: EPA and success and completion percentage over expected all these 617 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: different categories and entering this week, but just didn't see 618 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 2: I mean, the thing I thought was odd just about 619 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 2: the box scores. I think Kenneth Walker had five carries. 620 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 2: It just doesn't really make sense to kind of go 621 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 2: away from him in that sense when I feel like 622 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 2: they panicked a little bit, but just interesting all together. 623 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones just kind of outplayed him in this one. 624 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 2: Better EPA you know, was running aside from that scramble 625 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 2: that Gino had that was like a thirty yard game, 626 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 2: Daniel joneses felt like he was better in this one. 627 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 2: So and think about this, just Giants drives seventy five 628 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 2: percent success rate in this one. So Seattle's defense was 629 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 2: not up to par. Seattle was three of thirteen on 630 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 2: third down and fourth down on offense, fewer yards, fewer 631 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 2: yards per play. Yeah, and Gino got sacked seven times 632 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 2: in this one, so it just really hard for to 633 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 2: get any consistency on offense. And he is now the 634 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: second most sacks this season behind Deshaun Watson. So all 635 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: that offensive success and he's on his butt every play. 636 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 2: So and the I'm trying to see if there's any 637 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 2: stats here that are worth using to me. The one 638 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 2: that was interesting that I keep running is dable love 639 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 2: a loss now fifteen and six against the number, and 640 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 2: this being the worst loss of Geno Smith's career. He 641 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 2: was six and zero straight up as a favorite of 642 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: five or more so had never really felt that upset. 643 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: But this one wasn't good. And that block field goal 644 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 2: at the end that went the other way, I think 645 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 2: a few people and I'd be curious Brandon or Brandon 646 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 2: your opinion on that. But some people were calling for penalty. 647 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 2: Some say it was like a really good play by 648 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: just jumping the snap, but got in there blocked it 649 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 2: and maybe over time maybe not. 650 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was a clear penalty. I'm definitely 651 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 3: biased because Seattle futures are my biggest position, and I 652 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 3: was not we had not deserve that one today as 653 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: a Seattle backer. But yeah, I don't know. I think 654 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 3: the jump cleared, so maybe that wasn't a penalty, but 655 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 3: you can't put the hands on the on the long 656 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 3: snaper and me pushed them down like that, like that's 657 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 3: a defensive holding penalty. That should have been pretty clearly 658 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 3: to me. First and ten on the thirteen yard line 659 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 3: for Seattle with like two minutes left down three. That 660 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 3: is at least a tie game for them and very 661 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 3: likely a chance to get into the end zone there 662 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 3: and steal a win. They did not deserve the win, 663 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 3: and to be fair, that's a ten point swing there. 664 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 3: They already had the fourteen points swing in their favor 665 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 3: that first drive of the game, like you said, so 666 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 3: I don't think you get too upset about it. As 667 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 3: a Seattle fan, that moment stunk. But they just no 668 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 3: showed in this game, and I'm a little worried. They 669 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 3: play now Thursday night against San France, so again a 670 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 3: big game where both teams are reeling a little bit 671 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 3: and need a big one. Seattle just played Monday night 672 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: and gave up like a thousand points to the Lions. 673 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 3: Then the defense, like you mentioned the why did Kenneth 674 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 3: Walker only get five runs? The defense on the field 675 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 3: the whole game. They had no chance to run the ball. 676 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 3: So now their defense is on the field all game 677 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 3: against the Giants, and now they play again Thursday, so Monday, 678 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 3: Sunday Thursday against the Niners, who, quite frankly, last year 679 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 3: the last couple of years have demolished the Seahawks defense 680 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 3: who cannot tackle. It's not the same Niners this year, 681 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 3: but as the Seattle guy with all my futures, I 682 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 3: am not excited about the Thursday night. I will tell 683 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 3: you this. I can't do it as a hot read 684 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 3: because team totals don't go up right away Sunday night, 685 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 3: I would be looking at San Francisco hot read for 686 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 3: an over team total once at posts. I just don't 687 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 3: know if Sele's gonna win that one. They're gonna have 688 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 3: to do with offense because that defense gets gashed by 689 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 3: San fran and they are exhausted, I think after this 690 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 3: stretch that they've had so so I'm gonna keep your 691 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 3: eye on for Thursday night. 692 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: I was looking a first half over too. I thought 693 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: I saw two two and a half. Assuming they're both 694 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 2: off a loss on short rest, maybe defenses aren't as 695 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 2: radizy offenses. 696 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: That is something we should I should have set off. 697 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: The top is that we are into October. I heard 698 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 1: some of this on some of the broadcast today, Like 699 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: we're in October. Offense is now a thing that the 700 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: the extension of the preseason is over. There was offense 701 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 1: on this Sunday. So it seems that teams have well 702 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 1: competent teams unlike the Jets have have worked out coaching wise, 703 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: and maybe others too. They've they've worked out the kinks 704 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: very good. Yeah. And by the way, the Giants didn't 705 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: have Molik neighbors and they Yeah. 706 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 3: Daniel Trump, honestly, you kind of lose that game at 707 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 3: home first. Yeah, you just can't as a Giants fan. 708 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: I don't even want them to win that game. Like, 709 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 2: there's better teams to look forward to than them to 710 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 2: win this game. But of course this is the one 711 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 2: they win. 712 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: Niners are laying three at Seattle on Thursday. Okay, last 713 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: one before we do our rapid fire. These other three. 714 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: Just we spend a second on Commanders, visit the Browns 715 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: and the Browns were a team. I think a lot 716 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 1: of the Action Network folks were on Browns plus three 717 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: Commanders blowout Cleveland in Cleveland thirty four to thirteen total 718 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: goes over forty three and a half. That was annoying too. 719 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: I mean that was basically over. I mean, at the 720 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 1: beginning of the fourth quarter, he had a shot for 721 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,240 Speaker 1: the under, but it goes over forty three and a half. 722 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski Brandon said that Deshaun Watson is going to 723 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 1: continue to be their guy at quarterback. I know we 724 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: do these recap shows and it's very it's cliche and 725 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: it's very mainstream, like we just go coach quarterback, coach quarterback. 726 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: But the Deshaun Watson thing that I don't feel bad 727 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: about doing that. 728 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 3: The Deshaun Watson thing, it's gotta just be ownership at 729 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 3: this point, right. I don't know any other reason. You're 730 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 3: playing Washington, who by many measures is the worst or 731 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 3: one of the worst defenses in the league. And here's 732 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 3: what you do as Cleveland offensively two hundred and twelve 733 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 3: yards against Washington. That should be half of the game. 734 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 3: Twelve first downs for the game. They went one of 735 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 3: thirteen on third downs, Deshaun Watson gets sacked seven times, 736 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 3: barely completes half as passes minus zero point four to 737 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 3: one epa per play. This has to be the end, 738 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 3: but it's apparently not the end. Again, I wanted another 739 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,959 Speaker 3: hot rate here. The Browns are playing in Philadelphia next week. 740 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 3: Philadelphia gets back Adrian Brown and DeVante Smith in all likelihood. 741 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 3: I was looking at it at seven this morning. It's 742 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 3: up at nine and a half. Now that's too high. 743 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 3: I don't want to do that, but I do want 744 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 3: a Philadelphia first half before things screw around at the end. 745 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 3: Maybe Jamis finally gets to play the second half of 746 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 3: that game, but I'll be looking for a Philly first half. 747 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 3: The Browns are disaster. Jim Schwartz. A lot of people 748 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 3: played Cleveland here, as you mentioned Brennan, because Jim Schwartz 749 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 3: was supposed to be finally a challenge for Jayden Daniels, 750 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 3: not a challenge did not go well. I'm not sure 751 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 3: Jim Schwartz is gonna be coaching the defense a week 752 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 3: from now because they got a scapegoat somebody. Washington won 753 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 3: by twenty one despite an interception at the one yard 754 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 3: line about to score a field goal from the nine, 755 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 3: a fumble the first play second half, a field goal 756 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 3: from the twelve, despite giving up a garbage touchdown to 757 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 3: Cleveland at the end, Like this should have been way worse. 758 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 3: It's thirty four to thirteen and that flattered the Browns. 759 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 3: They're just not good right now. And Washington keeps on rolling. 760 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 3: Washington Baltimore next week. Again, We're gonna get to the 761 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 3: MVP thing shortly, but oh Man, Jane Daniels, Lamar Jackson, 762 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 3: early season MVP battle coming up. Who would have thought 763 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 3: Week six Washington Baltimore would be like the game of 764 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 3: the week that we'll be talking about next week. But 765 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 3: that's where we're headed. 766 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 1: Spend a sentence or two on these last three. Carolina 767 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: visit Chicago Panthers under Andy Dalton, much more competent offensively, 768 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: but not the case in this game. The Bears win 769 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: thirty six to ten. Caleb Caleb Williams, like Caleb de 770 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: almost said Caleb Daniels, Caleb Williams looked his best to 771 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: this point. Chicago covers the three and a half total 772 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: goes over Brandon Bears one. 773 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 3: This almost as badly as the one that Brace Young trade. 774 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 3: In fact, DJ Moore one hundred yards and two scores too, 775 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 3: because he was in that trade too. Lest they forget 776 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 3: just a rough but in a little extraar we've got 777 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 3: a little Brice Young in this game, because that's how 778 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 3: bad the blowout was. Caleb Williams has a second game 779 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 3: of three hundred yards and two scores, one more Top 780 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 3: five all times. Chicago bears good job. 781 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: Chicago burned the island. It's the island. It's been long gone. 782 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:34,440 Speaker 3: It's done. 783 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: Awful reviews. Vegas at Denver Broncos win thirty four eighteen. 784 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: It didn't start well, but the Gardner Minshew interception, the 785 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: certain return to the house. Those uniforms are fantastic. Denver, 786 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,479 Speaker 1: keep those uniforms. It was a great moment for Denver really. 787 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: After that pick six, Evan, the game was over. Denver covers. 788 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: The short number total goes over thirty five and a half. 789 00:39:56,200 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, in another universe it's seventeen to three Raiders. We're 790 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 2: probably talking about something completely different. But then you look 791 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 2: at the it's such a weird thing too. So if 792 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 2: you don't actually watch the game and you see the 793 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 2: box score versus watching the game, because total close at 794 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 2: thirty six Denver scored thirty four Minshew gets benched. They 795 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: throw three picks combined. Like you said, it's a completely 796 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: different game if you don't actually watch this one, and 797 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 2: you shouldn't have because there was twenty penalties between both teams. 798 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 2: It was just absolutely disgusting all around. I'm not sure 799 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 2: we were going to learn anything anybody. I know a 800 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 2: bunch of us were on Denver. But if Denver were 801 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 2: to have lost this game and it would have been 802 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 2: like what twenty three thirteen something like that, I don't 803 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 2: think we would have learned anything different anyway. So kind 804 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 2: of difficult to look forward with this result. I will 805 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 2: say this, Chargers Denver next week. Denver's been looking pretty well, 806 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 2: Chargers off a bye. I kind of want to look 807 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,959 Speaker 2: Chargers even though there are road faves in this one, 808 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 2: But I don't know. 809 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: That's my look on forward with these two Chargers laying 810 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: two and a half at Denver next Sunday afternoon, and 811 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: last and certainly least Miami, New England. Miami wins fifteen 812 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: to ten. They cover a short number as a short 813 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: favorite in New England. Total goes under Brandon Anderson. You 814 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: took another under thirty and a half. I believe I missed. 815 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 1: We didn't do best bets last week. I was out, 816 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: but uh, gross, gross football in Foxborough, even though it 817 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: was a gorgeous day here. 818 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, we took We called it the mine shaft copyright 819 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 3: Matt Moore. They can't, we can't escalate her up. We're 820 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 3: taking a mine shaft down. I gotta be honest. We 821 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,840 Speaker 3: got pretty lucky here. Think we got six field goal attempts. 822 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 3: Here we got four turnovers. This really shouldn't have been 823 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 3: that love, But I don't care because the Dolphins owed 824 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 3: us money after Monday and they give it back in 825 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 3: this one with the under Yeah, ugly game. Not much 826 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 3: more to say. We'll say this. Miami heads into the 827 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 3: bye week here. They absolutely could have lost this game. 828 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,240 Speaker 3: Absolutely could be out of it. This season, they've been horrendous. 829 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 3: They're two and three. The bill is like a couple 830 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 3: of games the Jets have lost a few games. They 831 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 3: play out of the bye week against Indianapolis and in Arizona. 832 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 3: You win one of those games, you're three and four. 833 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 3: Two is supposed to be back for Week eight at Buffalo. 834 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 3: Season might not be over yet for Miami. 835 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 1: Okay, something to keep an eye on very good moving 836 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: on Monday. And by the way, hot reeds coming from Brandon, 837 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: So stay tuned for that Monday night football. One game, 838 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: just one game we're talking about here. These Saints are 839 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: visiting the Kansas City Chiefs. The line is at five. 840 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: I think there's a five and a half out there 841 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: to yep, five and a half Kansas City lane the 842 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: five and a half. They're banged up. Rashi Rice is 843 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 1: on IR. That's the notable one, the most recent one. 844 00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: Your notes here, Evan on this game, Chiefs hosting the Saints. 845 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 2: I'll give a better two and then a note or two, 846 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,359 Speaker 2: and then we'll let Brandon do his thing. I kind 847 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 2: of like Comara to score a touchdown, score both road games, 848 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 2: scoring three of four. This year, he got the fourth 849 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 2: most FRED zone and goal line attempts, and if he 850 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 2: doesn't get it that way, he has eleven plus runs 851 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 2: of ten plus yards, so he's doing it explosively as well, 852 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 2: tied for second most of the NFL. So he has 853 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 2: a bunch of different ways to get in the end zone. 854 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 2: And I want New Orleans at six. I did it 855 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 2: earlier in the week. I know it's been touching five 856 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 2: and a half all along two stats. I really like 857 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 2: here when Carface's defense allowing fewer than twenty one points 858 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 2: per game, which is Kansas City actually thirty five and 859 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 2: twenty one against spread in his career, which people probably 860 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 2: wouldn't realize. And look at this list. It's Brady Breese, Rogers, 861 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 2: Peyton Manning, and Derek Carr. It's a good list to 862 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 2: be on. And we always know about Patrick Mahomes and 863 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 2: laying decently sized numbers thirty eight, forty three and three 864 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 2: when he's above minus three, twenty five, eight and one 865 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 2: when he's below that number. Homes all around seven turnover 866 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 2: worthy throws, which is tied for second most of the 867 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 2: NFL with Jalen Hurts and Bo Nicks entering this week. 868 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: Just been kind of different. Six touchdowns, five picks. We're 869 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 2: going to talk about him with MVP in a second, 870 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 2: which is just a very difficult conversation for most people. 871 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 2: So I like New Orleans at that's six number if 872 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:19,439 Speaker 2: I can get it. 873 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: Derek, you said that Derek Carr's twelve games over five 874 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: hundred against the spread. When he faces a team that 875 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: allows fewer than twenty points per game. 876 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 2: Twenty one, and it's fourteen, so under twenty one points 877 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 2: per game. He's thirty five and twenty one against the spread. 878 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: All right, he's holy short. 879 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's like thirty games under five hundred on 880 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 2: the flip side. 881 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: What the hell? That's the NFL right there for you crazy? 882 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 1: You teased it there, Evan, And I'll let Brandon kind 883 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: of segue first. Brandon, We'll start with the game and 884 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: then it kind of does introduce a fun top and 885 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: we've kind of hinted at it throughout the recap of 886 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 1: the games. But what to make of the MVP landscape 887 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: and not just the one obvious one, Patrick Mahomes being 888 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 1: the favorite, but you know, Derek a car there might 889 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: be he might be worthy of discussion as it pertains 890 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 1: to that. But start with the game first. 891 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I took the under on the hot read. 892 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 3: The line moved a half point against US so far. 893 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 3: I think maybe with some of the injury news, we 894 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 3: didn't know if Kamara or Lave would play, and they 895 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 3: look like they should go. Fauga, the left tackle should go. 896 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 3: That's probably why I still like the under here. Taysom 897 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 3: Hill is out. That is a big miss. The way 898 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 3: that the Saints use him that's just like a a 899 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 3: personnel weapon that confuses the defense. So that's a big 900 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,240 Speaker 3: miss for them. Just two pretty good defenses. The Chiefs 901 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 3: defense has been top ten against the run. That's what 902 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 3: the Saints need to do to open things up. Got 903 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:44,760 Speaker 3: Spags against car that's obviously a familiar matchup defensively Saints 904 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 3: defense under Dennis l And that's the one thing I 905 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 3: can have Dennis Allen as my head coach, but I 906 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 3: love him as my defensive coordinator. You're number two in 907 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 3: DVOA Top eight run, top eight pass. We haven't really 908 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 3: seen Kansas City play a really great defense, and haven't 909 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 3: really been that great offensive anyways. They're missing all those weapons. 910 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 3: We haven't seen the Saints offense do it against the 911 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 3: Spags sort of defense. Can their interier offensive line hold 912 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 3: up against Chris Jones and all the rushing. There's just 913 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 3: there's a lot of ways that I honest think it's 914 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 3: the either team really failing to put up a big 915 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,359 Speaker 3: number here, Like I could not be too shocked if 916 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 3: we got like thirty to thirteen in either direction. To 917 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 3: be totally honest, I think the Chiefs are due for 918 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 3: one of those games against a good team it might 919 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 3: not be the Saints. I think it could be the Saints. 920 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 3: We'll get to be a second Dennis Allen unders forty 921 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 3: four and below. That's a good trend. Dennis Allen unders 922 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 3: on the road. We know about the primetime unders, so 923 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 3: give me the under forty three and a half. And 924 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 3: I've been kind of hinting towards this all week. I 925 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 3: think the Saints are live to win the game here. 926 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 3: Not enough to play the money line, But I played 927 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,760 Speaker 3: a couple different ways. I played Denver Division this week. 928 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 3: They got to win today. If Kansas City were to 929 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 3: lose here, they're only a game out there, So keeping 930 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 3: eye on that. I am going to and did already play. 931 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:02,959 Speaker 3: We gave it out on our best bets. Derek Carr 932 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 3: for MVP if they go to Arrowhead. Patrick Mahomes is 933 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 3: the MVP favorite in a very weak field right now. 934 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 3: Hasn't really been that good. You mentioned the turnover worthy 935 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 3: he plays. He's got at least one interception every game 936 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 3: so far. He's really only the favorite because his name 937 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 3: is Patrick Mahomes and they're undefeated, right like, we can 938 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 3: just acknowledge that that's the case. I think he would 939 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 3: probably anowledge that's the case. The Saints have been pretty good. 940 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 3: By the numbers, the Saints have been to the better 941 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 3: team so far this season. If cargoes to Arrowhead on 942 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 3: Monday Night and beats Patrick Mahomes, he's already number one 943 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 3: in PF half grade. He's already number three in EPA 944 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 3: plus completional over expected. That is an indicator of MVP. 945 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 3: He's top three already despite coming off the two losses. 946 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 3: He's eighty to one to an MVP and a wide 947 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:53,879 Speaker 3: open race. Look when you see me nibbling MVPs, it's 948 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 3: because I've already left Aaron Rodgers for dead. But I'm 949 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 3: admitting that I think the race is pretty open and 950 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 3: we need some long shots here. So let me throw 951 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 3: it back to you guys. I think Derek Carr could 952 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 3: be alive. And that is not because I'm a Derek 953 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,479 Speaker 3: Carr fan. It is because I think the MVP race 954 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 3: is very open. Evan, if you were voting for an 955 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,880 Speaker 3: MVP right now, if you had to like submit a ballot, 956 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 3: the season is over, who would you vote for? Here? 957 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 2: So you would ask me and Brendon and pre show 958 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 2: to kind of just make a list. If we were 959 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 2: like ending it right now. I put a list of 960 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 2: eight names together and I'll just give him give you 961 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 2: an order. So just going through the standings, I feel 962 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,760 Speaker 2: like the list has to include these names, no question. 963 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 2: Jane Daniels, Lamar, Darnold Baker, Derrick Henry, and then the 964 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 2: next section, which you have to figure out a way 965 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:47,280 Speaker 2: because they're not playing as well, but they're either playing 966 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 2: really really well and their team. 967 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:50,480 Speaker 1: Suck's going to be in there. 968 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 2: It's Mahomes, Stroud, and Burrow or the other three. You 969 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 2: have to figure it out. Burrow's playing really well. His 970 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 2: team's one and four, so he can't be a part 971 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 2: of that list. Mahomes' team's undefeated. He's got six touchdowns 972 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 2: and five picks and just really hasn't looked good. And 973 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 2: we talked about that a second ago, and then yeah, Stroud, 974 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 2: I get it. Nico Collins also is five hundred and 975 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 2: sixty seven receiving yards and leads football, so trying to 976 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 2: figure out a way to encapsulize that is difficult. I 977 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 2: think Lamar is a little underrated. I'll just say that 978 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 2: nine touchdowns, one interceptions. He also seventh and rushing in 979 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:28,760 Speaker 2: the NFL seven yards per carry. Now I get Derek 980 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 2: Henry's first, but Lamar has been unreal and even with 981 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 2: the fumble that potentially would have taken them with a 982 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: loss today probably if they would have had the right 983 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 2: play calling, I still think his numbers are crazy. The 984 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 2: thing I didn't really realize when just looking at this 985 00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 2: entire list, and Jane Daniel has been absurd. We can 986 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 2: go over all the crazy number of the completion percentage 987 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,839 Speaker 2: and even like coming away and with the wins, etc. 988 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:56,399 Speaker 2: He's got four touchdowns and two interceptions. So I think 989 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 2: there's like both ways of probably looking at that scenario. Now. 990 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 2: Now the unexpectedness and the newness of a name probably 991 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 2: puts him up there. But Baker better better record, better 992 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 2: numbers than Darnald. But Donald's undefeated, So it's a it's 993 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 2: a little jumbled in there. 994 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: Just named the third of the league. Is the point 995 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:21,800 Speaker 1: of this of having this conversation, No, I'm not, I'm teasing, 996 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,439 Speaker 1: but like I'm making Brandon's point, like that's why it's 997 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:25,839 Speaker 1: it's an open an open race. 998 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say for me, if if I'm voting, 999 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:32,359 Speaker 3: I think it's you can only give one of two 1000 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,279 Speaker 3: names either you just say, well, I don't think there 1001 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 3: is an MVP, so let's give it to Mahomes because 1002 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,840 Speaker 3: he's undefeated. Like I can be okay with that. I 1003 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,760 Speaker 3: think that that's maybe what would happen if the season ended. 1004 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,320 Speaker 3: If we're going with the snare where the Chiefs lose tomorrow, 1005 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 3: then it's really wide open. I think it's just got 1006 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 3: to be Jade Daniels. I think the way that he 1007 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 3: has played, the fun factor, the wow factor, the way 1008 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 3: that he's running and escaping under pressure, like it's the 1009 00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson stuff, except that the number are just as good, 1010 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:05,360 Speaker 3: the advanced numbers are even better, and the record is better. 1011 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 3: So I feel like that's that to me. If we 1012 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 3: ignored that he was a rookie and the season really ended, now, 1013 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 3: I think Jane Daniels would be the MVP. He's plus 1014 00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 3: fifteen hundred, the same as Joe Burrow, which is interesting 1015 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 3: because Joe Burrows one and four, Washington is four and one. 1016 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 3: They beat him. They beat Burrow head to head, So 1017 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 3: if you think the Bengals are going to come back 1018 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 3: and make or run, maybe that's value. If you think 1019 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 3: Washington is as good as they'd look and they can 1020 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 3: actually go to Baltimore to win. Next week, you should 1021 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 3: be getting that MVP ticket because it is not gonna 1022 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 3: be fifteen to one anymore after that. I don't know 1023 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 3: that I believe, but I wouldn't believe they'd get to 1024 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:45,720 Speaker 3: four and one so far either, the way that they've played. 1025 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 3: So I think it is a beauty and eye of beholder. 1026 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 3: I don't know that I have a bet for you. 1027 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,880 Speaker 3: It's because I'm nibbling down the board. I looked at Gino, 1028 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:56,240 Speaker 3: I looked at Derek Carr. I'm looking at long shots 1029 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,040 Speaker 3: because I'm like, well, when we just cobble together some 1030 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,080 Speaker 3: dudes whose team might be good enough, I think you 1031 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,439 Speaker 3: want the NFC sleeper. That's what I think I want. 1032 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 3: I don't Prescott back now. Dak Prescott has been terrible 1033 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 3: this season. I do not want Dak Prescott. I don't 1034 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 3: think the Cowboys to the sleeper either. I figure out 1035 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 3: who's the NFC one seed. Maybe if Jared Goff, but 1036 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 3: Jared Goff and the Lions make the run, Like if 1037 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,239 Speaker 3: we're going to get a sleeper, I think that's where 1038 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 3: you're looking, and that's where you would want to find 1039 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 3: maybe a sleeper. And I know that that's not what 1040 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 3: what what did? Is Derek Carr? I keep thinking Derek 1041 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 3: Carry is on the Raiders. No, Derek Carry is the 1042 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 3: NFC great Derek Carry. You know Smith FC Championship. Let's go. 1043 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 2: Daniels face is the Ravens past? And then Caroline is 1044 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 2: past in the next two weeks. So the time is now? 1045 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: Okay now, and I acknowledge Jack's been bad. I just 1046 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 1: they want to know one the division stuff to play 1047 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: the Commanders twice. They are three and two. It could 1048 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 1: get better, I know, like Burrow, like comparing him to 1049 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: like Burrows had numbers, but the defense has not been 1050 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: very good in. 1051 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 2: San Francisco and Atlanta in the next three weeks. 1052 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough. It's a tough little schedule coming up. Interesting. 1053 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: So after that seven minute discussion, I don't know who's 1054 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 1: winning MVP is what is what? I'm what I'm concerned about? 1055 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 1: All Right, the Saints are live tomorrow, I think is 1056 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 1: the overall take. If that's why Derek Carr MVP ticket 1057 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 1: is not a bad idea. Should they go into Arrowhead 1058 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 1: and beat the Chiefs? Okay, very good, Let's wrap. We'll 1059 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:29,880 Speaker 1: do the hot read hot. 1060 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 4: Wrap on ice rights ice cream nineteen Sound nineteen. 1061 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 1: Hold, Brandon, what do you have. 1062 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,839 Speaker 3: For us our first game where you go Sunday night. 1063 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go right back to Joe Burrow. Give me 1064 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 3: the Bengals minus three and a half at the Giants. Yes, indeed, 1065 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 3: it is the third straight hot rad I'm picking against 1066 00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 3: the Giants that did not go well for me this 1067 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 3: week picking Seattle. I had this on my before Sunday 1068 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,919 Speaker 3: at minus four and a half. Now we get past 1069 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 3: the key number four for free, we just get a 1070 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,840 Speaker 3: little better line because the Giants got the win the 1071 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 3: Bengals loss. Of course, the line moves that way again. 1072 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 3: We tuggled this earlier. The Bengals, to me are an 1073 00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 3: upgrade after what we saw. Their offense is playing I 1074 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 3: think better than ever. Bengals right now are one and 1075 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 3: four with four to one score losses. The four losses 1076 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 3: are by fifteen point combined, so that could very easily 1077 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 3: be I mean, frankly five and zero if things have 1078 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 3: gone that way. Probably not, but at least three and 1079 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,839 Speaker 3: two are pretty deservedly. If those coin flips go half 1080 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,760 Speaker 3: and half, they entered this weekend fourth and DV away, 1081 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 3: they drop up thirty eight on a talented Ravens defense. 1082 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,120 Speaker 3: That's gonna go up. Joe Burrow has been great Cincinnati 1083 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,920 Speaker 3: number two EPA per drive, number two success rate offensively, 1084 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 3: So why the play minus three and a half is 1085 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 3: under the four key number. You beat the Bengals in shootouts, right, 1086 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 3: That's how you beat them. Forty one for the Ravens 1087 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 3: thirty eight for a while. Are the Giants gonna beat 1088 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 3: them in a shootout? Now? Jamar Chase and Teagans are 1089 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 3: gonna shred that New York secondary when they get a 1090 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 3: chance to. And the Giants want to win the ugly 1091 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 3: sort of game like they did today, not a shootout. 1092 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 3: So Bengals minus three and a half, that's the first 1093 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,319 Speaker 3: hot read. Brandon Evan thoughts, I love it. 1094 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,319 Speaker 2: I was gonna say before. I just feel like that 1095 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 2: line came. I saw four and a half, four three. 1096 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 2: It's just way too much of an exaggeration. And all 1097 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 2: what I heard Burrow in post game, they're gonna be 1098 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 2: angry and this is going to be the great spot 1099 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,479 Speaker 2: to be angry against. And I know the Giants pass 1100 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 2: rush can be a little fierce and is obviously with 1101 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,799 Speaker 2: the seven sacks. What gave Genos in trouble today, but 1102 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 2: exactly like Burrow. No, look, he'll get the ball down 1103 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 2: the field. They should be able to catch the ball. 1104 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,440 Speaker 2: And also the underlying storyline here is and I understand 1105 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 2: he's played decent recently, but one in fourteen straight up 1106 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 2: for Daniel Jones in primetime just sucks. So I would 1107 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 2: be probably fine going against especially I think he's owned 1108 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 2: seven at home, so let's do it. 1109 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 1: I was shocked when they put the promo graphic on 1110 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 1: tonight that that was the Sunday night game next week. 1111 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,520 Speaker 2: I was, I, no, come back to back New York too. 1112 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,480 Speaker 2: You get the Jets at home and the Giants at home, 1113 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 2: So I mean maybe the anti parlay, maybe just hit 1114 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:15,240 Speaker 2: the road teams. 1115 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 3: Okay, hot rate number two, number two, we're staying ugly. 1116 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 3: I struggled to find one I loved here, but I 1117 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 3: love a good ugly under Chargers Broncos under thirty seven. 1118 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 3: I think the team's even playing football. Here's a little 1119 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 3: game for you listening at home. Other than Cortland Sudden, 1120 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 3: name a running back or receiver on either one of 1121 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 3: these teams. Like, there are no weapons, I rate weapons 1122 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 3: like offensive weapons in the league. These are thirty first 1123 00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 3: and thirty second. There's nobody home to make offensive plays, 1124 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 3: so both offenses are kind of doing the same thing. 1125 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,240 Speaker 3: The Chargers are running the Bonnicks offense, check it down, 1126 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 3: short stuff, keep it easy, limit mistakes. On the other side, 1127 00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 3: the defense has been really good. Both these teams top 1128 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,320 Speaker 3: five v eight offensively. The Chargers are off this week. 1129 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,560 Speaker 3: Their new defensive coordinator, Jesse Minter for Michigan, has done 1130 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:07,680 Speaker 3: an awesome job with them with not a ton of 1131 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 3: talent vance Joseph's defense and Denver has been really good. 1132 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,839 Speaker 3: I think it looks like Rayshaun Slater. The Chargers left 1133 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 3: tackle still likely out here, so that hurts the offense 1134 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 3: a little bit for them. Joalt should be back, but 1135 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 3: still not great there. Herbert's been banged up as well. 1136 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 3: Neither team has really faced great offenses yet that's the criticism. 1137 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 3: Maybe the defense isn't great. Well, guess what you get 1138 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 3: to face the Broncos and Chargers, so we're not gonna 1139 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 3: find out about facing a good offense here either. Chargers 1140 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 3: games this season thirty two points, twenty nine thirty and 1141 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 3: twenty seven thirty two is be high for the season. 1142 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 3: Denver's got a thirty three and two nineteens. These are 1143 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 3: not Denver scores. These are the final score of the game. 1144 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 3: So that's the seven out of nine games thirty three 1145 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 3: or lower. You've heard my stat over and over again 1146 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 3: under his thirty eight and up below, that drop a 1147 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 3: huge amount sixty three percent under. Here's thirty seven and below. 1148 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 3: Now since November twenty, nineteen, thirty eight fourteen and one 1149 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 3: to the under seventy three percent. And you know, Brandon, 1150 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 3: there's no all lines yet, but we introduced the mind 1151 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 3: shaft the thirty and below and it's at thirty seven 1152 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,840 Speaker 3: in below. I feel like this might be another mind shaft. 1153 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 3: Fifty nine percent of those games at thirty seven and 1154 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 3: below finished thirty or below at the end of the game. 1155 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,960 Speaker 3: That's where these Chargers Broncos games have been going. So 1156 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 3: let's just keep it simple, keep it ugly. Chargers Broncos. 1157 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 3: Please don't show it on an NFL red zone. Just 1158 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 3: let us cash her under and get out of here. 1159 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 1: All right, Very good two hot reads from Brandon Cincinnati 1160 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 1: minus three and a half at the Giants and he's 1161 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: on the under Broncos Chargers game under thirty six and 1162 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: a half Okay, before we wrap up, let's hear from 1163 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 1: our friend Patrick Everson over at Vegas Insider for a 1164 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: market report. How did Las Vegas fare today? 1165 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 4: All right, Brandon, thanks a lot for me on the 1166 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 4: Action Network podcast once again recapping the weekend that was 1167 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 4: with NFL Week five and what was was pretty decent 1168 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,959 Speaker 4: for the betting public masses for a change. 1169 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 5: It's been a few weeks. 1170 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 4: The sports books have really been making hay over the 1171 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,280 Speaker 4: first few weeks, most of the first few weeks of 1172 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 4: the regular season, but with the exception of a couple 1173 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 4: of the later results that probably fell the sportsbook's way, 1174 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 4: the public actually did pretty good on Sunday, really right 1175 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,800 Speaker 4: out of the gate with that Jets Vikings game. Ats 1176 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 4: makers all week long said that the Vikings were a 1177 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,320 Speaker 4: very public play. I continued to hear that on Saturday 1178 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 4: and Sunday heading into that very early game in London, 1179 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 4: and the Vikings get the. 1180 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,520 Speaker 5: Win and cover. So that was really good for the 1181 00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 5: public betting masses. 1182 00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 4: Also, the Washington Commanders, I think we've touched on this 1183 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks. 1184 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,040 Speaker 5: They're starting to get more and more public. 1185 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 4: Jayden Daniels quickly growing in popularity as well. 1186 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 5: The public was. 1187 00:59:56,160 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 4: Definitely on Washington today at home against Cleveland, Washington rolls 1188 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 4: to a winning cover, so that was another really good 1189 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 4: result for the betting public, as was the Ravens scratching 1190 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 4: out that overtime win and a high scoring game against 1191 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:16,640 Speaker 4: Cincinnati forty one to thirty eight Ravens win in overtime. 1192 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 4: And what Tristan Davis said behind the counter for bet 1193 01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 4: MGM mainly off for those early results, but a little 1194 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 4: bit some of the later stuff too, is that there 1195 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 4: will be plenty of happy betters today, I think, particularly 1196 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 4: from the games. 1197 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 5: That were in the early window. Now. 1198 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 4: The Packers were a very public team as well and 1199 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 4: got there with the winning cover against the Rams, so 1200 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 4: that was good for the betters. But the book certainly 1201 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:42,960 Speaker 4: got some back with the San Francisco forty nine ers 1202 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 4: losing outright as seven. 1203 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 5: Point favorites against the Arizona Cardinals. 1204 01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 4: And the Seattle Seahawks also seven point favorites, lots of 1205 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:54,919 Speaker 4: tickets on Seattle this week losing outright to the New 1206 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 4: York Football Giants, So there was some give back in 1207 01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 4: some of these and there may have been a little 1208 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:03,280 Speaker 4: bit of an exchange of money back and forth depending 1209 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 4: on which book you were looking at with the Sunday 1210 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 4: night game between the Steelers and the Cowboys, but again 1211 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 4: generally speaking, it was a better week for the public 1212 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 4: betters than the last few weeks have been. Christian Cippolini, 1213 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,880 Speaker 4: behind the counter at BETMGM, had a couple of comments noted, 1214 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 4: it looks like a great weekend for the betters, but 1215 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,880 Speaker 4: he said, it's been four straight big weeks for us 1216 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 4: behind the counter, so we were. 1217 01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 5: Probably due here. The public was probably due here. 1218 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 4: As well, and so the books got their due and 1219 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 4: the public hopefully got right a little bit. Let's look 1220 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 4: ahead real quick to the Monday night game to wrap 1221 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 4: this up, and a pretty interesting game. 1222 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 5: You've got Saints against the Chiefs. The Chiefs did. 1223 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 4: Touch six and some spots over the course of the week, 1224 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,959 Speaker 4: but sitting five and a half now, and interestingly on 1225 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 4: Sunday at BETMGM, you were looking at almost two to 1226 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 4: one tickets and almost two to one money on the 1227 01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 4: spread in favor of New Orleans on the road here, 1228 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 4: which I think it's pretty interesting because Kansas City is 1229 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 4: always a very public team, even when they're banged up, 1230 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 4: and the Saints were taking a little bit more moneyline. 1231 01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:10,520 Speaker 5: Play as well, with the plus number. 1232 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 4: Is probably attractive there, but sometimes that doesn't even turn 1233 01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:15,439 Speaker 4: people off of Kansas City. But what I will say 1234 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:17,720 Speaker 4: to that is you've got all day Monday for this 1235 01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 4: to percolate. 1236 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:20,240 Speaker 5: Kansas City is very public. 1237 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 4: Whatever moneyline parlays are live to Monday are going to run. 1238 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 5: To the Kansas City Chiefs. 1239 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 4: Straight you know, straight bet spread parlays as well, those 1240 01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:30,479 Speaker 4: are going to run to the Chiefs, and they're gonna 1241 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 4: be bett and favored it over. So even though on 1242 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:37,280 Speaker 4: straight bets on the spread, the Saints as a Sunday 1243 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,280 Speaker 4: we're taking more tickets and money than the Chiefs, I 1244 01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 4: think the Chiefs are going to make up some ground, 1245 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 4: perhaps on straight bets, but if not, certainly on parlays, 1246 01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,600 Speaker 4: moneyline parlays that are still live and so forth. So 1247 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 4: don't be surprised at all if Tomorrow night the book 1248 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 4: is not only rooting for a Saints cover, but perhaps 1249 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 4: a Saints outright upset, which is out of the question. 1250 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 4: Dogs of five and a half or more this season 1251 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 4: have been very good against the spread and have pulled 1252 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 4: their share of upsets as well, and we saw two 1253 01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 4: more on Sunday with the Giants beating the Seahawks and 1254 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 4: the Cardinals beating the forty nine ers out right. So 1255 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 4: there we have it, a little look at the weekend 1256 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 4: that was in NFL Week five. 1257 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:17,360 Speaker 5: We'll talk to you again next week. 1258 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Okay, Jens, it's late, we'll get out of here.
