Speaker 1: Check it down man, now down man. Good Monday morning
Speaker 1: to you right here on the Numbers game at Visa
Speaker 1: Sports Betting Network Serious except Channel two four, Visa dot Com,
Speaker 1: the Visa Boa Sling and Game Plus guessing lines for
Speaker 1: week number nine in the National Football League. That's what
Speaker 1: we do here on Monday's um. We'll look back, of
Speaker 1: course to all the games at week eight. Uh. And
Speaker 1: we do this with a gentleman who was not able
Speaker 1: to make it last week, but of course he's the
Speaker 1: star of the show and he's back with us this week.
Speaker 1: We could not be happier. He's the south Point Sports
Speaker 1: Book Director, Chris the Andrews. Good morning to you, Chris.
Speaker 1: How are you? I'm not too bad, Gil going the
Speaker 1: way better than I did last week, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: Before we get into any of this, of the system
Speaker 1: that we do here on the show, which is I'm
Speaker 1: in a Cocoon. This is a tribute to the old
Speaker 1: Stardust radio show of the same of the same milk,
Speaker 1: where we go through the lines. You tell us what
Speaker 1: we're gonna post. I am in a cocoon. I guessed
Speaker 1: them before we get in any of that. Can you
Speaker 1: walk us through because I think that you are beloved
Speaker 1: for sure. Uh, And so I think people want to
Speaker 1: know how you when you first felt symptoms, What were
Speaker 1: they like, how bad did they get? What was the
Speaker 1: full arc? How do you feel now, et cetera. Take
Speaker 1: us back to the first time you felt something odd. Well,
Speaker 1: last Thursday, you know, probably late in the afternoon, I
Speaker 1: just started coughing and coughing and coughing. And you know,
Speaker 1: I just in this day and age when I first started,
Speaker 1: I I have COVID, you know. And that night I
Speaker 1: went home, tried to sleep. It was up all night,
Speaker 1: you know, I couldn't sleep more in ten fifteen minutes
Speaker 1: at a time because my coughing and just waked me up.
Speaker 1: Finally went into uh you know, you know, an easy
Speaker 1: boy and a lady boys chair. Got a little bit
Speaker 1: of sleep here, so I could sleep a little better
Speaker 1: that way. So I got up in the morning feeling
Speaker 1: just weird, you know. UH, had the run of the
Speaker 1: bathroom on occasion, took my temperature. It was ninety seven
Speaker 1: point oh at one point, and then you know, I
Speaker 1: know that's not a fever, the exact opposite, and something's wrong,
Speaker 1: you know. Then I took it like about half an
Speaker 1: hour later and it was ninety nine point nine. And
Speaker 1: I usually run a little low, so ninety nine point
Speaker 1: nine for me is a pretty high fever. So you know,
Speaker 1: I kind of went thro you know, did it like
Speaker 1: again a half hour laterly down in ninety seven, another
Speaker 1: half hour up there nine nine point something. Something is wrong.
Speaker 1: If it's COVID, I certainly I don't want to get
Speaker 1: the rest of the world sick, you know, So I ran,
Speaker 1: you know, Michael Vaughan set us up to get tested,
Speaker 1: to get tested fairly quickly. Uh So, women got tested.
Speaker 1: You know, they told, well, it'll be six to twelve
Speaker 1: hours before we let you know, you know, Okay, they
Speaker 1: call it back like in an hour, and it is now,
Speaker 1: you got it. So I think it's one of those
Speaker 1: deals where you've got it, they get back here right away.
Speaker 1: And so they put you know, my doctors in USC
Speaker 1: Actually I stayed in contact with them throughout this because
Speaker 1: they originally warned me, you know, you gotta trying not
Speaker 1: to get this with my immune system, you know, which
Speaker 1: they had to wipe out in order for the transplant,
Speaker 1: you know. Uh so I thought they put me on
Speaker 1: some stuff, um and and it really it started helping.
Speaker 1: Like after about day four or five, I could see
Speaker 1: I was, I started getting better, like actually fairly dramatically,
Speaker 1: but you know, and it's just been getting better ever
Speaker 1: since then when he just backed up for a second.
Speaker 1: So I found that on Friday. And also and I
Speaker 1: posted this on Twitter, just a little note about it
Speaker 1: without too many details. A good friend of mine got
Speaker 1: it on the Monday before, so like four or five
Speaker 1: days before, got it that day and died the same day.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you know that? And you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was terrified. And like I said, you've got other guys,
Speaker 1: you know, like I saw were Bobby bout and he's
Speaker 1: like one. He sailed through it in a couple of days.
Speaker 1: You know. So there's so much about this disease. They
Speaker 1: just don't know. You affect somebody so differently, Like I said,
Speaker 1: my friend he was sixty three, so a year younger
Speaker 1: than me. They died the same day. And then I
Speaker 1: know another guy, and again I don't want to say
Speaker 1: the company or the name right I have, but a
Speaker 1: good friend of mine, he works with a guy, an
Speaker 1: executive you know, said pretty good care and on it.
Speaker 1: He's had it since like March and can't get rid
Speaker 1: of it, you know, So this disease is just you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, four or five years from the they'll
Speaker 1: come back and say, wow, we really discovered a lot
Speaker 1: you know about But right now it's a brand new
Speaker 1: they don't know. And if that's people really differently, and
Speaker 1: I'm not sure they know exactly why. But I was very,
Speaker 1: very lucky. And you know, beforehand, they thought I would
Speaker 1: be one of the guys that wasn't very lucky, but
Speaker 1: you know, I was, you know, for whatever reason, I
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, but I feel much better today. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, last week I couldn't talk. I couldn't get
Speaker 1: on you show because I couldn't talk. You know, my
Speaker 1: voice was so bad and if I talked to more
Speaker 1: than like a minute, I would just start coughing. So
Speaker 1: I just couldn't do the show last week. But you know,
Speaker 1: I feel a lot better today. I'm gonna probably get
Speaker 1: tested again, probably tomorrow today day eleven, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: probably get tested tomorrow. I got to see kind of
Speaker 1: what the protocols are and go from there and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully I test negative. You know, I do
Speaker 1: feel pretty good, I can tell you that. But I
Speaker 1: do comm you occasionally, but it's not terrible like it was. Okay,
Speaker 1: but the rules are if you if you feel not
Speaker 1: up to anything in the next two hours, you're allowed
Speaker 1: to leave in the middle. That's the rule where we
Speaker 1: agree on that. Okay, you were literally by the way,
Speaker 1: it's Gil Alexander, Chris Andrews. It is a numbers game
Speaker 1: right here at Visa and the Sports Betting Network guessing
Speaker 1: lines for week nine. That's what we're about to do
Speaker 1: here for the National Football League, our Monday tradition. Because
Speaker 1: the last thing on this obviously you, Chrissy, based on
Speaker 1: your your your pre existing conditions. You were the last guy, right,
Speaker 1: the last guy we wanted to get this. So I'm
Speaker 1: just so speak on behalf of everybody. How thrilled we
Speaker 1: are that you're doing better. Um, so good, good? You
Speaker 1: have no idea? Well, I'm sure you do. You you
Speaker 1: more than anybody. Yeah. Okay, Well let's begin with Thursday,
Speaker 1: and as always during this, we'll take a look back
Speaker 1: to what was here this past week. Okay, Thursday, we
Speaker 1: have Green Day at San Francisco. Oh is it gonna
Speaker 1: be tough to make because we don't know who's playing
Speaker 1: for San Francisco. I don't think Jimmy Garoppolo. They got
Speaker 1: him questionable. Yeah, and then there's George Kittle too with
Speaker 1: the foot injury. Right. Both Garoppolo and Kittle left that
Speaker 1: game yesterday, uh and did not return for the Niners.
Speaker 1: The Niners losing to Seattle thirty seven to twenty seven
Speaker 1: in a game that quite frankly wasn't that close. Um.
Speaker 1: San Francisco so passes its lost total already from last
Speaker 1: season with their fourth loss. Jimmy g was eleven of
Speaker 1: sixty for eighty four yards, no touchdowns, one pick. He
Speaker 1: was sacked three times before he was off the field
Speaker 1: next to Baltimore. This is the thing about Garoppolo that
Speaker 1: gets me, and I'll get to I realized it's a
Speaker 1: green Bay at San Francisco, so we usually start with
Speaker 1: the away team. But the thing that gets me about
Speaker 1: about Garoppolo is that next to Baltimore, he has probably
Speaker 1: the best running game in the league. You plugging anybody
Speaker 1: in there, and they have this fabulous running game, and
Speaker 1: so he's got the biggest windows there are on play
Speaker 1: action passes, but he throws pick after pick. So they
Speaker 1: just can't be happy with what they're seeing from him.
Speaker 1: That's his third game this year with no touchdowns and
Speaker 1: at least one pick. Mullins came in Nick Mullins eighteen
Speaker 1: of twenty five for two thirty eight, two touchdowns, no picks,
Speaker 1: no secks, bred and Aiyuk was the biggest target in
Speaker 1: terms of the receiving game eight for ninety wanted a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Minnesota yesterday, excuse me, green Bay yesterday, though, loses to
Speaker 1: Minnesota and they lose outright, one of seven favorites UH
Speaker 1: this week to lose out right. Green Bay loses to
Speaker 1: Minnesota to twenty two. Also a game that probably wasn't
Speaker 1: quite as close as the final score indicates, but Green
Speaker 1: Bay had a shot at the end. It was a
Speaker 1: weird game. It was one of these games where green
Speaker 1: Bay started out with a thirteen play seventy five yard
Speaker 1: touchdown drive and then Minnesota came back with a ten
Speaker 1: play seventy three yard touchdown drive, and that was basically
Speaker 1: the first quarter. Then green Bay came back with a
Speaker 1: fifteen play seventy two yard touchdown drive in the second quarter.
Speaker 1: Minnesota followed with the twelve place sixty seven yard touchdown drive,
Speaker 1: and that was basically the first half. Third quarter starts
Speaker 1: Minnesota ten play eighty five yard touchdown drive. There were
Speaker 1: no punts in this game till the fourth quarter. Minnesota
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown on their first four drives, and that
Speaker 1: fourteen lead. That flip after the half is really what
Speaker 1: decided this game again twenty to twenty two. But this
Speaker 1: is tough without knowing if Garoppolo or Kittle what their
Speaker 1: status is, and I'm not sure Garoppolo matters is I
Speaker 1: guess what I was getting at earlier. I'll say a
Speaker 1: pick them because I don't really know what else to
Speaker 1: make it. It's two and a half light and see
Speaker 1: a three, A couple of threes with juice on the dog. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm a band. I don't know, Yes, yeah, when it happen,
Speaker 1: you know that the Jimmy g fan it's just really interesting.
Speaker 1: You know, let's start with that. You know, when you
Speaker 1: say somebody's wildly inconsistent, usually meets is bad, you know,
Speaker 1: but he's truly inconsistent. And I was reading one of
Speaker 1: the guys, I think just Tim Prowler comed he said,
Speaker 1: let's not forget you know, a couple of months ago
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, he was probably eight minutes away
Speaker 1: from being the m v P. And then now you
Speaker 1: just see him and sometimes he looks incredibly good and
Speaker 1: other times it looks incredibly bad. And yessarily looked incredibly bad.
Speaker 1: And Nick Mullins, it was one of those guys where
Speaker 1: I when I see when I see him play, I think, well,
Speaker 1: you know, this kid isn't bad. He's okay. But then
Speaker 1: you start looking at some numbers and eight doesn't produce.
Speaker 1: Now yesterday he did. You know if you look at
Speaker 1: his numb where's my notes here? This QBR with nineties
Speaker 1: seven point? Oh that's really odd. But in a game
Speaker 1: like you said, you're not nearly as close as the
Speaker 1: score would indicate. And um, Seattle, you know, against kind
Speaker 1: of like our prejudices because we keep thinking of Seattle
Speaker 1: with this great defensive ship they're degon is terrible this year.
Speaker 1: So um, but I don't know what to think about
Speaker 1: Mullins and Garoppolo. You think there's no difference. You know,
Speaker 1: you might be right. I think there's a little bit,
Speaker 1: but you know, you might be dead on anyway. I
Speaker 1: kind of like a little higher uh you know, well,
Speaker 1: I mean I didn't like to pick um. I see
Speaker 1: two and a half. I'm gonna open at two and
Speaker 1: a half. I don't think it's worthy of the three.
Speaker 1: But you know, Green Bay has now playing a couple
Speaker 1: of bad games in a row. I had them really
Speaker 1: in the highest echelon of this league. I had to
Speaker 1: drop him down a little bit after after two games
Speaker 1: like that. But I'm gonna open to and a half.
Speaker 1: I think that's okay. But you know, this is gonna
Speaker 1: be really interesting with the short week and the numerous
Speaker 1: injuries oft have had throughout the year. I was checking
Speaker 1: my notes another thing too, No, no team has swung
Speaker 1: more in my power ratings than San Francisco just but
Speaker 1: primarily because of the injuries. They're very difficult to sort
Speaker 1: of pin pinned down because of those injuries. Right, They've
Speaker 1: just been a mash unit. But I think the Kittle
Speaker 1: one is the is potentially the biggest of all of them.
Speaker 1: So we'll see if he's able to play in this
Speaker 1: game or not. Um. Yes, I don't really know what
Speaker 1: to make of that line. Let's go to Sunday morning.
Speaker 1: Jason conn is here, By the way, how many how
Speaker 1: many Sunday morning games we have? Jason? It is three
Speaker 1: late games and eight early games. So like yesterday. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, what's first, Christie? I'm sorry. Seattle at Buffalo.
Speaker 1: Another good game, Seattle at Buffalo. Things are looking up
Speaker 1: with these matchups. Uh, Seattle, as we mentioned, beats the
Speaker 1: beats the Niners yesterday thirty seven to twenty seven. Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson UH twenty seven of thirty seven for two sixty one,
Speaker 1: four touchdowns, no picks, sacked just twice at DK Metcalf
Speaker 1: was the man yesterday, twelve catches for a hundred sixty
Speaker 1: one yards, both career highs two touchdowns. It is Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson's third game this season with four plus touchdowns and
Speaker 1: no picks. He has twenty six touchdown passes. That's the
Speaker 1: second most in history through seven games. You may recall
Speaker 1: Tom Brady twenty seven back in two thousand seven, and
Speaker 1: the Seahawks are the only team with twenty seven plus
Speaker 1: points in every game this season. They were nine of
Speaker 1: fifteen on third downs. By the way, they were minus
Speaker 1: two in turnovers in that game against the Niners yesterday
Speaker 1: still won last Seattle score. Oh here was my little
Speaker 1: note that I made. I was I make little notes
Speaker 1: since I'm like, what am I saying? Here. There was
Speaker 1: one thing at the end of that game. Uh. It
Speaker 1: was Seattle's last scoring drive and Russell Wilson intended to
Speaker 1: go in for a slide but sort of did a
Speaker 1: hesitation move on the slide and then slid anyway, and
Speaker 1: the Niners defender hit him and got flagged, which helped
Speaker 1: that final drive. They can't throw flags if if a
Speaker 1: quarterback is gonna do some hesitation on that, you can't
Speaker 1: fake a slide and then go into a slide and
Speaker 1: get flagged. That was the one thing I was like that.
Speaker 1: That was one of these officiating notes where I'm just like, that's, uh,
Speaker 1: that's not gonna work for this league. Um. Buffalo yesterday
Speaker 1: somehow beats the Patriots. The Patriots do get the cover
Speaker 1: in this game. Buffalo wins at twenty one, but Cam
Speaker 1: Newton and the Pats were driving late and Cam Newton
Speaker 1: fumbled the football. Josh Allen was eleven of eighteen for
Speaker 1: one no touchdowns, one pick. He was sacked once. He
Speaker 1: was ten for twenty three on the ground with a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Stefan dig six catches for ninety two. Bill's first home
Speaker 1: win versus the pat Sin. But Seattle is at Buffalo.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any way Buffalo can be favored
Speaker 1: in this game. I think people are sort of onto
Speaker 1: Buffalo's absolute one dimensional game on offense and New England,
Speaker 1: for goodness sake, New England one wast beat him. So
Speaker 1: I'll say, see, I'll split the difference between three and
Speaker 1: the called say Seattle minus one and a half on
Speaker 1: the road, you're a shade light. It's two and a half.
Speaker 1: I even two and a half some juice, uh too?
Speaker 1: I got like three three threes with juice on the dog.
Speaker 1: How many it go with two and a half. I
Speaker 1: forgot to mention this during the San Francisco game, But
Speaker 1: there is a huge steam from the wise guys on
Speaker 1: San Francisco yesterday, and I have to kind of respect
Speaker 1: that because it was really, you know, from guys I
Speaker 1: highly respected. Now would've betting on San Francisco or they
Speaker 1: betting against Seattle, And that's a question you have to
Speaker 1: ask yourself. The thing in Seattle's defense is terrible. And hey, Jil,
Speaker 1: I got the root for Russell Wilson yesterday. I was
Speaker 1: for Big T. I got a top well, I got
Speaker 1: a couple every year. That was one of them. Uh,
Speaker 1: but I do have to wonder, you know what went
Speaker 1: into that handicupp because I mean it really was huge,
Speaker 1: huge steam. Um. So I like the two and a half,
Speaker 1: but I gotta tell you my power ratings, and I
Speaker 1: still I still regard Seattle like really really good. Um
Speaker 1: those defensive flaws. But you know, is Russell Wilson and
Speaker 1: octobercome him a lot of times he is. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: I liked I liked the two and a half. I
Speaker 1: think it's not worthy of the three. I think three
Speaker 1: they would take. Um. I hadn't feeling will get the
Speaker 1: three at some point during this week, and we may
Speaker 1: even close three come Sunday. I assume with those seven
Speaker 1: dogs winning out right this week so far, that you've
Speaker 1: had a phenomenal weekend. From a book's perspective, no complaints,
Speaker 1: no complaints, all right, By the way, the book he's
Speaker 1: always find something to complain about, believe me. But I
Speaker 1: got no and you've got none. By the way, for
Speaker 1: those landing on this show again, not only the tribute
Speaker 1: to the old start US radio show, but we often
Speaker 1: find that our first impressions here on Monday or the
Speaker 1: best uh as a better From the betting side of things,
Speaker 1: last week, the two lines where we did the bastardized version.
Speaker 1: We didn't do guessing lines without you, Chrissie, but Jason
Speaker 1: and I just went through the games because I had
Speaker 1: taken all these notes, might as well wasted. But we
Speaker 1: didn't do a guessing lines. We didn't put it in
Speaker 1: podcast for him. But the two lines that definitely stuck
Speaker 1: out as odd last week were the Steelers and the Ravens,
Speaker 1: which I could not understand how that was five and
Speaker 1: a half on Monday morning just makes no sense. And
Speaker 1: the other one was Denver and UH and the Chargers,
Speaker 1: which I believe I sort of said something like, listen,
Speaker 1: I don't know why I like Denver, but Anthony lenn
Speaker 1: and the Charges will figure out a way not to
Speaker 1: cover this. So those are those are the only tip uh.
Speaker 1: We'll get to those games. Let's do one more here
Speaker 1: on Sunday morning for Week nine. Already in the NFL.
Speaker 1: All right, Broncos at the Falcons. There they are, Broncos
Speaker 1: at the Falcons. Falcons will be on extra rest. They're
Speaker 1: coming off their Thursday night win against the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 1: Denver yesterday drew lock forty one, forty eight three touchdowns,
Speaker 1: one pick. He was sacked twice. Philip Lindsay six of
Speaker 1: eighty three eighty three, I should say for a touchdown
Speaker 1: and and with a touchdown it was a fifty five
Speaker 1: yards scamper that really gave Denver life in the second
Speaker 1: half down twenty one yesterday. I mentioned Atlanta's win over
Speaker 1: Carolina this past Thursday. Matt Ryan was twenty one thirty
Speaker 1: two eighty one, no touchdowns, one pick. He was sacked twice.
Speaker 1: Julio came alive seven for one thirty seven. Uh they
Speaker 1: dominated Caroline in terms of time to possession thirty six. Um.
Speaker 1: I'll get into the well, I might as well, since
Speaker 1: we have time talk about Denver and the Chargers. It
Speaker 1: was gonna wait till the Chargers portion of this, but
Speaker 1: I might as well with Denver being here, the Chargers yesterday,
Speaker 1: that that is there. Let's put up the tweets if
Speaker 1: we can. Jason on the Chargers. They were up yesterday
Speaker 1: twenty four to three. Uh so another twenty one. And
Speaker 1: it was that Lindsay that Lindsay run early in the
Speaker 1: second have, or at least in the third quarter, that
Speaker 1: sort of lit the fire to the provise. You're like Oh, well,
Speaker 1: that was quick. Here's Daniel Popper. Chargers blown leads in
Speaker 1: the last four games seventeen points, seventeen points, sixteen points,
Speaker 1: twenty one points. That's virtually impossible. Virtually impossible. ESPN Stats
Speaker 1: and Information puts it, uh in perspective year teams when
Speaker 1: leading by seventeen plus this season entering last night's game,
Speaker 1: Chargers oh and three, all others fifty two and four.
Speaker 1: And then there's one more from ESPN Stats INNA. But
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's impossible. Oh, Chargers o win three
Speaker 1: the rest of the league fifty two and four. Charges
Speaker 1: the first team in NFL history to lose three straight
Speaker 1: games in which they led by seventeen points. Chargers also
Speaker 1: joined the two thousand three Falcons as the only teams
Speaker 1: in NFL history to lose three games after holding a
Speaker 1: seventeen point lead in NFL history. That's uh, courtesy of
Speaker 1: ALIAS as well. So yesterday, it wasn't so much the
Speaker 1: fact that it was any specific Anthony Lennism I think
Speaker 1: people are you know the fact that it's the fourth
Speaker 1: or fifth such episode. This, by the way, Steven Vegas
Speaker 1: who follows as seven oh two Steve sports, um oh,
Speaker 1: that's a different one coming up. That's for another game. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm like a dog being distracted by tweets here in
Speaker 1: different screens of the building. Um, but the charge yesterday,
Speaker 1: the Chargers are up up twenty four to three, okay,
Speaker 1: having blown four leads of sixteen plus as we just
Speaker 1: talked about, But the they gave up plays the Chargers
Speaker 1: did to the Broncos of fifty five yards that was
Speaker 1: the Lindsay run, a forty three yard passed to Judy
Speaker 1: on a subsequent drive, and then a forty yard touchdown later.
Speaker 1: And so it was these huge plays on defense that
Speaker 1: they were giving up. Yes, there was a couple of penalties,
Speaker 1: but this one was just sort of a This wasn't like,
Speaker 1: you know, Anthony Lynn making one poor decision. This was
Speaker 1: just a full full collapse on the part of the
Speaker 1: Chargers defense. As Drew lock In, the Broncos all of
Speaker 1: a sudden looked like the Redskins. All that said, Atlanta
Speaker 1: will be a favorite at home. With extra rest, I'll
Speaker 1: say it's four and a half. Wow, you're better than
Speaker 1: what I came up with. I think four, and it's
Speaker 1: pretty much a solid four. I thought this game will
Speaker 1: be a lot closer than three. Um, you know, went
Speaker 1: through some of my notes, like every four weeks. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do it again this week, just just for myself.
Speaker 1: I take notes on teams like where do I think,
Speaker 1: where are they going? You know where they've been, blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. And I was looking over my notes before
Speaker 1: this week's games, and Denver I had pegged, I said,
Speaker 1: you know what, there's I don't think we're gonna win
Speaker 1: a lot of games, but I think they're starting to
Speaker 1: becoming a very live dog. And I said the same
Speaker 1: thing about the Bengals, by the way, but I thought
Speaker 1: the Broncos were going to be a very live dog.
Speaker 1: And and you know, I agree with you. Yesterday, though,
Speaker 1: I have to admit, since I'm still not a person,
Speaker 1: I kind of fell asleep during the late afternoon games.
Speaker 1: I woke up in time to see the Broncos score,
Speaker 1: where I was one of the few games with a lot,
Speaker 1: So I don't know everything that happened. I do remember
Speaker 1: the Lindsay right, But I think the Broncos are you know,
Speaker 1: I don't like the coach, not crazy about the quarterback.
Speaker 1: I think there's some teams there's some talent on that team,
Speaker 1: And you know, I think for me, I think anything
Speaker 1: over three, I'd be looking to take the dog. I
Speaker 1: ended open four just because that's what where it is everywhere.
Speaker 1: But I kind of leaned towards the dog on this one.
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I think they show up in
Speaker 1: Atlanta is another very hard team to figure. They just
Speaker 1: they blow a lot of leads. But they look pretty
Speaker 1: good on Thursday night, you know. And uh, but I
Speaker 1: don't think they deserved to be a four. I like
Speaker 1: them a little lower. I had Denver yesterday. Um, and
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, there were penalties on the Chargers,
Speaker 1: so it is part of an overall team culture. But man,
Speaker 1: how ethany Lyn still has a job. I have no idea.
Speaker 1: We'll come back. We'll do more. Week nine in the
Speaker 1: NFL Guessing Lines with Chrissy Andrews right here in the
Speaker 1: Numbers game at Visa the sports betting network, our friends
Speaker 1: at Circle with the Circumillions and Survivor Circumillions, Carnage Bills,
Speaker 1: Titans number one and two. Most popularly picked teams Goodbye
Speaker 1: Goodbye Lost loss uh fifth most popular team picked the Rams. Noope,
Speaker 1: by the way. The Rams Dolphins box score, which we'll
Speaker 1: get to is perhaps the funniest Buck score you will
Speaker 1: ever see in your life. So one, two and five
Speaker 1: Bills and Titans being the biggest defenders in circum million,
Speaker 1: then their circus survivor, which had three fifty left. Remember
Speaker 1: there were nine before the season with three on the
Speaker 1: button left. Three entries not placed in miss the deadline,
Speaker 1: so it goes to three. Only sixteen others knocked out
Speaker 1: Titans and Packers. Only five people picked the Packers. It's
Speaker 1: a pretty sharp survivor group, by the way, when you
Speaker 1: consider that that was the most tickets and the Packers. Yeah, MGM,
Speaker 1: yeah Grid last week. Of course, there's planning involved in
Speaker 1: this and scheduling, you know, grids and stuff. Eagles was
Speaker 1: the biggest sweat for people. Hundred forty one people will
Speaker 1: get to the Eagles. Cowboys in a minute, Good lord
Speaker 1: Bucks pending to Night seventy nine. But uh, I think
Speaker 1: the Bucks will roll the Giants. You know one of
Speaker 1: these games where you're like, I think this team is
Speaker 1: going to roll the other team, and you're you're worried
Speaker 1: about sounding stupid. In the end, I do not care
Speaker 1: about stay out sounding stupid. I think the Bucks will
Speaker 1: destroy them. But seventy nine people have the Bucks tonight
Speaker 1: against the Giants. Four Thoroughness's sake, all right, Chrissie, Chris
Speaker 1: Andrews with us from the South Point Hotel Casino. Feeling
Speaker 1: better today, Let's do another one for Sunday morning. Week nine. Okay,
Speaker 1: next stuff, we have the Bears at the Titans. The Bears,
Speaker 1: Bears and the Titans. Good game again. It's a good
Speaker 1: little week. Yeah games. Chicago loses yesterday to New Orleans
Speaker 1: twenty three, and they do so in overtime. Um. See
Speaker 1: that played. You see Whims hitting hitting the guy on
Speaker 1: the Saints a couple of times ejected, He's gonna get
Speaker 1: a suspension, he may, he may get released. That was ridiculous. Um,
Speaker 1: but New Orleans pulls it out to twenty three. New
Speaker 1: Orleans did not have Michael Thomas in this game, which
Speaker 1: was huge Alvin Alvin Kamara Phillip statue. But as far
Speaker 1: as the Bears are concerned, Nick Foles was forty one
Speaker 1: for two seventy two two touchdowns. One. Picky was sacked
Speaker 1: five times by the Saints. D Alan Robinson six of
Speaker 1: eighties seven four touchdown. Let me just say this on
Speaker 1: that on that final drive that Chicago ended up tying
Speaker 1: the game on. How does that Chicago fumble get waved
Speaker 1: off for forward progress? Did you see that Chicago had
Speaker 1: There was a pass, there was no whistle, and it
Speaker 1: was it was probably forward progress. I'm not saying it wasn't,
Speaker 1: but there was no whistle. There was a fumble. The
Speaker 1: Saint should have won the game right there. How the
Speaker 1: how the officials decided they were going to without a whistle,
Speaker 1: you know, go back and say, well, no, actually, it
Speaker 1: wasn't a fumble. It was forward progress. Like if that's
Speaker 1: the Saints are the most chronically screwed team week after week,
Speaker 1: year after year by stuff, but the Saints end up
Speaker 1: winning it nonetheless in overtime. UM twenty three points are fewer,
Speaker 1: and all of five nick Fole starts this year, and
Speaker 1: the Bears are two and three and nick Fole starts,
Speaker 1: by the way, they're three and o and Mitch R.
Speaker 1: Biskie starts. I don't want to start anything. And then
Speaker 1: there's Tennessee. Tennessee loses outright to Cincinnati. Uh, Tennessee teasers
Speaker 1: was the only thing that didn't work out for me
Speaker 1: betting wise. Yesterday, Tanna eighteen of thirty for two thirty three,
Speaker 1: two touchdowns, one pick, he sacked once, Derrick Henry eighteen
Speaker 1: for one twelve and a touchdown Corey excuse me, uh yeah,
Speaker 1: Davis eight for a touchdown. The Titans out gained Cincinnati
Speaker 1: four forty one to three sixty seven. They out because
Speaker 1: they were out possessed by Cincinnati thirty fifty seven too.
Speaker 1: Oh three, I'll say Tennessee minus four and a half. Well,
Speaker 1: that's one of those Gil. I like your number better, yes,
Speaker 1: but it's not my number. My power raised well, first
Speaker 1: of all, let me tell you what's out there. Six
Speaker 1: and pretty much a solid six. My power ratings have
Speaker 1: Tennessee three and a half points better than the Bears
Speaker 1: without home field advance. So six maybe a little bit
Speaker 1: of a stretch. I was thinking more like five and
Speaker 1: a half, and I didn't want to get to the six. Uh.
Speaker 1: But you know, Tennessee has not been great. You know,
Speaker 1: they had one really good game. To escape from my brain,
Speaker 1: what was the one great game they had? But I
Speaker 1: know why. I think the Bears keep this really close.
Speaker 1: I think six is probably a take. I think dthing
Speaker 1: i'd leaned lower. I'm an open six because that's what
Speaker 1: it is by leaned lower. For sure, that might be
Speaker 1: the first one I like today. It's tough because I
Speaker 1: don't know if I really want to. I really want
Speaker 1: to back the Bears, but six boys is a lot um.
Speaker 1: I think the Tennessee game you're talking about is that
Speaker 1: four lost the Steelers last week. Maybe they're winning overtime
Speaker 1: over the Texans, they nip the Vikings, they don't really
Speaker 1: have a great win. To be honest with you, we'll
Speaker 1: come back. It's guessing lines right here on the Numbers
Speaker 1: game in Visa and the Sports Betting Network. Unlike the
Speaker 1: circum millions thing you just threw up, Jason, I did
Speaker 1: well yesterday in the contest. Minnesota, Denver, and Pittsburgh all winners.
Speaker 1: I lost on New Orleans. I didn't get there. Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: Pending also up Tampa Bay to close out a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of teasers. So I'm all in on Tampa Bay tonight.
Speaker 1: We'll get into that. By the way, Chrissie, Chris Andrews
Speaker 1: back with us, UH feeling better today? Back with us
Speaker 1: to UH guess week nine lines the game you were
Speaker 1: talking about with the with Tennessee. Because I was doing
Speaker 1: it on a glance. As we were talking, was that
Speaker 1: Thursday night game against Buffalo right where they crushed him.
Speaker 1: And now, I don't know how good that looks the
Speaker 1: way Buffalo has been playing, maybe not as good as
Speaker 1: we thought it to be. Yeah, I went back and
Speaker 1: looked myself. I give I had like a grading system,
Speaker 1: and that's like the one good grades, like a really
Speaker 1: good grade that they got. Otherwise they've been really kind
Speaker 1: of mediocre Tennessee. Yeah, so that was the one good one.
Speaker 1: Um so yeah, yeah, we should hit that before we
Speaker 1: move on. But we got some other stuff. Yeah. So
Speaker 1: that but that's the first line. That's a little curious
Speaker 1: to me. Six interesting Interesting, Okay, what's next? Detroit of Minnesota?
Speaker 1: Detroit at Minnesota. We talked about the UH. The Vikings
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins eleven of fourteen for one sixty one touchdown
Speaker 1: note pics. It was sacked once Dalvin did all the
Speaker 1: heavy lifting. Dalvin Cook thirty for one sixty three and
Speaker 1: three touchdowns that he caught, two passes for sixty three
Speaker 1: and another touchdown. UH scored up. As I said earlier,
Speaker 1: Minnesota scored a touchdown on each of their first four
Speaker 1: possessions as they beat the Packers Detroit yesterday. Um, they lose,
Speaker 1: and they lose pretty big in the end to the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts forty one to twenty one. This was the
Speaker 1: game on the megapod last week where we asked the question,
Speaker 1: what's the game you want no part of? And this
Speaker 1: was my choice, and I think this was Mike Palm's
Speaker 1: choice as well, because these are two of the teams
Speaker 1: that I just cannot seem to put my finger on.
Speaker 1: The Colts were the Lions, but the Colts do get
Speaker 1: it done. For one, Matt Stafford was or forty two
Speaker 1: for three thirty six three touchdowns. He was picked once,
Speaker 1: but he sacked five times. Marvin Hall was his number
Speaker 1: one received for four for one thirteen. The Lions only
Speaker 1: had twenty nine rushing yards in this game yesterday. They
Speaker 1: were minus two in turnovers. So this is an inter
Speaker 1: an intro division game. Detroit at Minnesota. I think it's
Speaker 1: more than a field goal, Say Minnesota minus four. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's three and a half and four, and I definitely
Speaker 1: leaned to the higher, So I'm gonna open four. You
Speaker 1: know this Detroit team, boy, I'll tell you you know
Speaker 1: just such a poorly run franchise had I mean ever
Speaker 1: since I was a little kid, I never remember Detroit
Speaker 1: really being good. They've had a couple of flashes of
Speaker 1: Mediocwardy being as about as good as they could be.
Speaker 1: And you know, Matthew Stafford that they had, this guy
Speaker 1: have been drafted by somebody else, been with a different organization.
Speaker 1: I think we're talking about Hall of Fame credentials, and
Speaker 1: that's a shame to waste the talent is so good
Speaker 1: because they really don't have anything besides him. Um just
Speaker 1: I think there's just a lot long with this Detroit team.
Speaker 1: And by the way, just to back up a second,
Speaker 1: that was a strangely bad game Detroit and the Colts.
Speaker 1: The early steam from respected wise guys that I got
Speaker 1: was on Detroit. They took it pretty good, but then
Speaker 1: in the last day it was all Indianapolis money. I
Speaker 1: mean from sharp players too. And I always tell everybody
Speaker 1: there's no wise guy union. There's plenty of guys out
Speaker 1: there with money, but that different opinion, and this this
Speaker 1: would be a perfect example. You know, there was a
Speaker 1: lot of early money for the lines, but all the
Speaker 1: late money was on the indian Apolis and I don't
Speaker 1: think it was a setup game. I really don't. Um,
Speaker 1: how often would you say you see how often do
Speaker 1: you say you see that kind of pattern? Um? Maybe
Speaker 1: a couple of times a week. This was an extreme example,
Speaker 1: you know, really was because you know, we hold we
Speaker 1: hold everything at eleven and ten, so they're taking three
Speaker 1: off me when they couldn't get it anywhere else at
Speaker 1: minus one ten. So I had a lot of money
Speaker 1: plus the three. But then you know we went to
Speaker 1: two and a half. That didn't last long. Then the
Speaker 1: flood gates opened the other way, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we we lost that game. That was one of our
Speaker 1: few losers for the day. We needed Detroit pretty good.
Speaker 1: But uh, you know, there's a lot, there's a lot
Speaker 1: wrong with that team and the probably starting at the top,
Speaker 1: and it's been that way for probably but fifty sixty years.
Speaker 1: So you know, anyway, I like the higher number here
Speaker 1: to go about way three applete four, But I definitely
Speaker 1: like the four better. You know we have that, there's
Speaker 1: no we have it. But there's a prop out there,
Speaker 1: um that says, will all four teams in a division
Speaker 1: make the playoffs? And it's really referring to the NFC West,
Speaker 1: and before this past weekend, I think it was like
Speaker 1: plus three fifty, yes, which is not nearly enough bang
Speaker 1: for your buck on that. But I will say this,
Speaker 1: there really isn't a lot of teams in the NFC
Speaker 1: that are that are trying to torpedo that. With Detroit losing,
Speaker 1: with Carolina losing, uh, Chicago obviously losing, but New Orleans
Speaker 1: would be the one that would torpedo ad at this
Speaker 1: point if you look at the standings, what is next?
Speaker 1: On Sunday morning, ravings at the colts Man. Good game
Speaker 1: after good game. We finally have a week, Week nine,
Speaker 1: as we're halfway through the NFL season. For most of
Speaker 1: these Baltimore, Indianapolis, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens yesterday lose
Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh. They lose outright to twenty four. Again, one
Speaker 1: of these box scores very strange. Yesterday. Jackson was thirteen
Speaker 1: twenty eight for two oh eight, two touchdowns, two picks,
Speaker 1: we sacked four times, sixteen carries for sixty five yards,
Speaker 1: as well seven turnovers and two career starts versus Pittsburgh,
Speaker 1: including those four picks, yes, excuse me, including four yesterday,
Speaker 1: so two picks, two fumbles. First career loss for Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson when leading at halftime. So they're out twenty two
Speaker 1: and one. J. K. Dobbins fifteen for one, thirteen edwards
Speaker 1: sixteen eight seven and a touchdown. Sneed five catches for
Speaker 1: one oh six. The Ravens were eight of fifteen on
Speaker 1: third down, one of two on fourth. They outgained Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: four fifty seven to two twenty one, including to sixty
Speaker 1: five to forty eight on the ground. It's the most
Speaker 1: rushing yards in a loss in Ravens franchise history. They
Speaker 1: ran seventy nine plays the Colts only excuse me the uh,
Speaker 1: the Steelers only ran fifty. They outpossessed Pittsburgh thirty eight,
Speaker 1: but nine penalties for one ten yards minus three in turnovers,
Speaker 1: and that'll do it. The pick six to Robert Splaine
Speaker 1: made it seven and nothing Pittsburgh. Then there was a
Speaker 1: pick later Alex Highsmith got it that set up a
Speaker 1: twenty one yard short field cut the lead, that allowed
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh to cut a seventeen to seven deficit to seventeen
Speaker 1: and fourteen. And so really that's what helped Pittsburgh along
Speaker 1: in that game. Uh, those two huge defensive plays Indianapolis
Speaker 1: for their part, as we just mentioned against Detroit and
Speaker 1: their big win, easy win, I should say in the
Speaker 1: n forty one twenty one Rivers twenty three or thirty
Speaker 1: three for two sixty three three touchdowns note picks. He
Speaker 1: was sacked twice, Jordan Wilkins twenty eighty nine on the
Speaker 1: ground for a touchdown. Niaheim Hines three catches fifty four yards,
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Indianapolis out possessed Detroit thirty seven, forty six
Speaker 1: to fourteen. It's like box score weirdness all over the
Speaker 1: place yesterday, but Baltimore Pittsburgh was the second weirdest. Only
Speaker 1: Miami and the Rams were worse. So it's Baltimore Indianapolis.
Speaker 1: I'll say Baltimore minus three and a half, and we'll
Speaker 1: come back and we'll get Chrissie's answer what he's gonna
Speaker 1: post here at the South Point next right here on
Speaker 1: the numbers game at Visa and these sports betting network. Alright,
Speaker 1: So the game we left off with here on guessing
Speaker 1: lines once a gain was the Baltimore at Indianapolis game.
Speaker 1: Indianapolis coming off a win against the Troy, Baltimore coming
Speaker 1: off a win against Pittsburgh, but really Baltimore, as I mentioned,
Speaker 1: to sixty five on the ground, the most rushing yards
Speaker 1: in a loss in franchise history. But it was that
Speaker 1: pick six early to Robert Spillane of the Steelers that
Speaker 1: put the Ravens at a seven nothing hole. They got
Speaker 1: out of that hole to lead seventeen to seven, but
Speaker 1: then another terrible pick Alex Highsmith gave Big Ben a
Speaker 1: twenty one yard short field, so basically was seventeen to
Speaker 1: fourteen in The Steelers offense hadn't done a thing at
Speaker 1: that point. Then they took over, but that was just
Speaker 1: the kind of boost they needed. So I'll say Baltimore
Speaker 1: minus three and a half. Here at Indianapolis, Chris Well,
Speaker 1: once again, I like your number better. It's three, and
Speaker 1: I even see three with juice on the dog. Um
Speaker 1: My numbers come four, you know, even higher without the
Speaker 1: home field advantage. And dare I say you have a
Speaker 1: chance here to buy the Ravens low. Not too often
Speaker 1: during the season you get to do that. But I'm
Speaker 1: like you, Gil, I look at the numbers. Now that
Speaker 1: the Steelers played a great second half, there's, you know,
Speaker 1: strategically execution wise all that they really played well. But
Speaker 1: don't have to estimate the Ravens. I mean, they still
Speaker 1: had a chance to win the game on the last
Speaker 1: play of the game. You know, so right now you
Speaker 1: know the Ravens. Ravens lost to the Steelers, they lost
Speaker 1: to Kansas City. Um, yeah, we take too much away
Speaker 1: from either one of those. Um you know I have
Speaker 1: those reading day. Well, Ravens can't win big games, blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. I'm not so sure about that. But like
Speaker 1: I said, they had a chance to pull out this
Speaker 1: victory in the last play of the game, even though
Speaker 1: I thought the Steelers really did a good job the
Speaker 1: second half. So right now in the Colts they are
Speaker 1: consistent and there's so much on this roster I like,
Speaker 1: but I still just don't like Philip Rivers. Uh So
Speaker 1: I definitely leaned towards the Ravens here. I'm gonna open
Speaker 1: three just because if I open a three and a half,
Speaker 1: it would be a flood, because I do see three.
Speaker 1: Like I said with Juice in the Bog that if
Speaker 1: you're out there playing, I think you have a chance
Speaker 1: to get you're buying low on the Ravens, and not
Speaker 1: too often does that happen. I would definitely put on
Speaker 1: putting a little mark next to Ravens. I like them
Speaker 1: this week. I agree with that assessment of the Ravens.
Speaker 1: By by any reasonable sort of calculation, they're in the
Speaker 1: They're in the top tier of teams in the NFL. Now,
Speaker 1: maybe you put Kansas Central, maybe you put the Chiefs
Speaker 1: on a tier unto themselves. Okay, maybe you do, maybe
Speaker 1: you don't, but the Ravens are absolutely in that group
Speaker 1: with the Steelers and the Chiefs. Uh maybe the Bucks
Speaker 1: vying to be in that group as well. The Indianapolis
Speaker 1: thinking you because you mentioned that one thing about Philip
Speaker 1: Rivers twenty three or thirty three yesterday for two sixty
Speaker 1: two and three touchdowns, Jason, you said something about Philip Rivers.
Speaker 1: You remember what you said here off air. Well, maybe
Speaker 1: the uh, what we were talking about the Chargers, the
Speaker 1: Chargers problem is not a Philip Rivers problem. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: maybe maybe we owe Philip Rivers a bit of an apology.
Speaker 1: I mean, now, we lived through those Chargers games, so
Speaker 1: maybe we don't. Maybe we don't. I don't know, I
Speaker 1: don't know if we do. But he's he's certainly playing
Speaker 1: well this year. We can give him that much. So far,
Speaker 1: but it does feel like there's an implosion ready to happy.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's fair unfair. Let's do one
Speaker 1: more here, uh Sunday morning. This is a tough one
Speaker 1: Carolina at Kansas City, Carolina, kansaity. Caroline is gonna have
Speaker 1: extra rest here. They lose to the Falcons. As we
Speaker 1: mentioned on Thursday night, Uh, Teddy Bridgewater fifteen of twenty
Speaker 1: three in that game for one seventy six. The Panthers
Speaker 1: were two of ten on third down. They were one
Speaker 1: of three on fourth down last week. So before that
Speaker 1: Thursday night game against the Falcons, which they lost twenty
Speaker 1: five to seventeen, as a tick of a favorite in
Speaker 1: the end, I think there were one and a half
Speaker 1: point closing favorites consensus. The game against the Saints the
Speaker 1: week before, I mentioned there was that third down play
Speaker 1: late if you recall this Jason, where it was twenty
Speaker 1: four Saints. That was the eventual final score, and Teddy
Speaker 1: took a sack right before the two minute warning on
Speaker 1: third and eight, and so when they came back from
Speaker 1: the two minute warning, Joey Sly had to kick a
Speaker 1: sixty five yard field goal that went about sixty three
Speaker 1: and a half yards and then the Saints got one
Speaker 1: one first down and the game was over. This game
Speaker 1: against the Falcons, which I got to see more Teddy
Speaker 1: than I think I have before, at least in a
Speaker 1: Panther's uniform. I don't know if it's him or if
Speaker 1: nobody's getting open downfield, but he seems to there are
Speaker 1: city Let's put it this way. I'm not sure if
Speaker 1: I'm sold on his situational quarterbacking, if that makes any sense.
Speaker 1: There just seems to be some plays where I'm like,
Speaker 1: throw the ball, throw the ball and he'll eat it.
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, I don't know if that's you know,
Speaker 1: but at some point you gotta know when to throw
Speaker 1: the ball. So that's my That's my little knock on
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater who otherwise I love. Kansas City. Uh, no surprise.
Speaker 1: They beat the Jets yesterday as nineteen and a half
Speaker 1: favorites and they cover in the process. About that. Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes thirty one forty two for four sixteen five touchdowns,
Speaker 1: no picks, He wasn't sacked. Kelsey eight for one on
Speaker 1: nine at a touchdown Tyreek f two touchdowns. Uh. The
Speaker 1: Chiefs only needed fifty rushing yards. Gotta respect Andy Reid.
Speaker 1: Like you know we're saying before about the Vikings that
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins was eleven of fourteen. Well, the Vikings realized that, Like,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna keep giving Dalvin Cook the ball. I
Speaker 1: love when an NFL team does that, right, don't try
Speaker 1: to outsmart yourself. Just keep doing it till they stop it.
Speaker 1: Chiefs very much a Belichick in game by game, what
Speaker 1: do we need to do in this particular game to
Speaker 1: beat this particular team. Now, they did waste a punt return,
Speaker 1: excuse me, a fake punt play for no particular reason.
Speaker 1: But other than that, um, they outgained the Jets four
Speaker 1: nine six to two twenty one. So that's that's pretty dominant.
Speaker 1: All that said, if it's I don't know, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be wrong on this, I said, Casey minus ten. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're a little light that The reason I thought this
Speaker 1: was tough as I think McCaffrey is gonna be back
Speaker 1: for this. He will be And how much does he mean?
Speaker 1: Because he has missed quite a bit. But I think
Speaker 1: the kid is just a super dynamic player. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: Carolina was one of those teams I was showing signs,
Speaker 1: in my mind, showing signs of them really getting into
Speaker 1: the playoff hunt playing some pretty good football. You know. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. And I've been a big Petty
Speaker 1: fan ever since he was at Louis Bill. I love
Speaker 1: the kid. Was devastated when he had that devastating injury.
Speaker 1: He's come back pretty good. The last couple of games
Speaker 1: not quite so good. So maybe they're figuring this guy
Speaker 1: out a little bit. And you know, Matt Rule, a
Speaker 1: guy who's as a college coach, I think really did well.
Speaker 1: Sometimes that transfers the pros. Sometimes it doesn't. Anyway, my
Speaker 1: numbers here come to twelve without any home field I
Speaker 1: don't give the Sheets a big home field here. Again,
Speaker 1: I'm going the one word, the one phrase. Guys who
Speaker 1: go up to hear me say diminishing returns. You know.
Speaker 1: So I think I think eleven and a half. Then
Speaker 1: between eleven half swell and alf I'm gonna go right
Speaker 1: in the middle of twelve. Um. I think the Chiefs
Speaker 1: probably could sleep walk through this game and win it.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if they cover, and not that
Speaker 1: I don't think this is just a huge game for them.
Speaker 1: You know, some I think twelves. Okay, but I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an interesting game to watch most of us.
Speaker 1: I want to see mccafoye coming back and see what
Speaker 1: kind of difference he makes on this team, because it
Speaker 1: could be nothing after all this time, but it could
Speaker 1: be a lot too because he is a superporter. Well
Speaker 1: you said it. I mean, that's gonna be the thing
Speaker 1: with all these big chief spreads when they're at home.
Speaker 1: You know, they might just they could name their score
Speaker 1: if they want to, and then they could just lollygag
Speaker 1: their way through it, right fall asleep on a sleepwalk,
Speaker 1: as he said. So that's why it's tough to play.
Speaker 1: And then you know, are they really going to go
Speaker 1: fifteen and one? What's the game from here to the
Speaker 1: end of the year that they're just a sleepwalk to
Speaker 1: the point where they don't end up winning it? Um,
Speaker 1: there's always that possibility. I don't know if it's this
Speaker 1: week or not, but you're right, it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: A Christian McCaffrey led a Carolina team in this one.
Speaker 1: So what's the final number of Kansas City? What minus?
Speaker 1: I mean? Okay, I think we have one more early game,
Speaker 1: one more early I believe, Uh do oh two one,
Speaker 1: what's next? Let's do one more here? Houston at Jacksonville. Okay,
Speaker 1: well this won't take a long and we only have
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes. Houston, Uh, Houston coming off of
Speaker 1: bye Jacksonville coming off of by two teams coming off
Speaker 1: of bye um and this will be now. So Gardner
Speaker 1: Minshew has multiple fractures. We were talking about this last week.
Speaker 1: He didn't tell the Jaguars he multiple fractures in his
Speaker 1: throwing hand. And so this is probably Mike Glennan going
Speaker 1: for the Jaguars in this game. And so that alone,
Speaker 1: I mean that alone would make it Houston minus way
Speaker 1: more points than I would have imagined if it was Minshew,
Speaker 1: because I think there is Minshew. Was you know, from
Speaker 1: from Minshew to Glennon does that mean anything? I think
Speaker 1: it probably means a couple of points sight unseen. We
Speaker 1: don't know what Mike glenn Or is or is Jon
Speaker 1: Gruden famously called him Mike glenn On. We don't know
Speaker 1: what he's about at this point, So I'll say Houston
Speaker 1: is Houston minus six too many? Oh well, no, it's
Speaker 1: not used to be six and a half. Pretty much
Speaker 1: painted on no real difference in geez my members come. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll play a true if I liked it even higher
Speaker 1: because Mike Glenn on I'm not a big fan of
Speaker 1: and Minshew, yeah, they started figuring him out. But I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, before the season we're talking about Jacksonville
Speaker 1: being abysmally bad, and they started out with a win
Speaker 1: and I think kind of threw us off a little bit.
Speaker 1: But I think they're coming back down to earth, are
Speaker 1: coming back down to where we thought they would be. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know with Mike glenn and like that. My numbers
Speaker 1: because I gave him two points between him and Minshew,
Speaker 1: my numbers will be the Texans eight with no home
Speaker 1: field advantage, and jackson will not had much of my
Speaker 1: home field manage. I gotta tell you, even in the
Speaker 1: best of times, Um, I guess I guess the six
Speaker 1: and apps okay, but tell you to if I saw seven,
Speaker 1: I probably go to seven. I think Texans are hungry
Speaker 1: for a win, and they found a team that I
Speaker 1: think they could beat up there. Like I kind of
Speaker 1: I kind of like the Texans a little bit hatlan
Speaker 1: uh chalk on the road, But I think the Texans
Speaker 1: found the team that they may be able to take
Speaker 1: that their frustrations on. I do respect Jacksonville's fight though
Speaker 1: they show up for these games. Um Gardner Minshew not
Speaker 1: keeping it, I mean keeping it from his team. Bad
Speaker 1: co worker Jason picks up a check, but bad co
Speaker 1: worker can't do that. It's used to minus six and
Speaker 1: a half. We'll come back guess some more lines right

Speaker 1: didn't catch bevis in last week, here's some of what
Speaker 1: you missed. So here's your updated. Now new favorite to
Speaker 1: win the AP Coach of the Year. This is that
Speaker 1: a global book. Mike Tomlin Steelers coaches the new favorite
Speaker 1: at six to one, as that team is now undefeated.
Speaker 1: Still quite the conundrum because he's a players coach. The
Speaker 1: guy's love and respect him. He's a saint and an
Speaker 1: angel for when you see the issues that Bell and
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown have had that they've never had issues there
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh and how everything worked out in team chemistry.
Speaker 1: But he's you know, he's kind of a weird with
Speaker 1: the raw rod, some of the cliches after the game,
Speaker 1: but it's struggles with clock and game management and strategy.
Speaker 1: But they're always in the mix. Yeah, And it's also
Speaker 1: you get different answers when you talk to hardcore Steeler
Speaker 1: fans about what they think. I love him, so I
Speaker 1: thought he should have been fired years ago. John Harball
Speaker 1: is now the second shot in the board. At seven
Speaker 1: to one, I'm not so sure. Last year, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: Bruce Arians plus seven fifty. That's that's interesting too. I
Speaker 1: can't get there with that one either, because they have
Speaker 1: so many weapons. I mean, who was going to be
Speaker 1: surprised if he asked someone in August if Tampa was
Speaker 1: gonna go twolve and four and when the division everyone
Speaker 1: would have raised their hand. I said, Okay, at least
Speaker 1: I certainly buy that Tom and his toys. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think Arians should get decredit that
Speaker 1: much credit for what's going on. The other thing. They
Speaker 1: want seven games. Last year they had a quarterback who
Speaker 1: through thirty interceptions, Right, so Tom doesn't turn it over. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So immediately you think, okay, that's problem of problems fixed
Speaker 1: from day one, right, you eliminated those massive problems, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, hey, we're talking about it. Maybe
Speaker 1: division winner or a playoff team Andy Reid, Mike Greable
Speaker 1: or each eight to one was plus five seventy five.
Speaker 1: They do change, by the way, the EIDs go back
Speaker 1: and forth every week depending on a win in a loss.
Speaker 1: Stefanski and Kingsbury, along with Rivera are nine to one.
Speaker 1: Flores Is tenal on with the floor. My guy Matt

Speaker 1: voted early, Yeah, drop off. Yeah, that's the way to
Speaker 1: go almost a hundred million Americans. Uh. We'll talk election
Speaker 1: betting tomorrow on election Day, and we'll talk about it
Speaker 1: Wednesday as well. Uh see if I can't get Mac
Speaker 1: for standing back on the show and Pamela maldon on
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about all that big big day tomorrow,
Speaker 1: twenty four hours away from the presidential election. All right, Chrissy,
Speaker 1: one more in the morning. I'm led to believe it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let me throw something. And I got a friend of
Speaker 1: mine from Australia who works for a bookmaking up. He
Speaker 1: sent me their figures on what they're doing on the
Speaker 1: American UH election presidential election. Oh wait, chw I mean
Speaker 1: if we get booked here, it would make it would
Speaker 1: dwarf the super Bowl like you can't believe. I mean
Speaker 1: in Australia they got big, big numbers on this. So
Speaker 1: where where do you by the way, you are willing?
Speaker 1: Are you willing to share those numbers or you don't
Speaker 1: want to share those numbers? I don't want to share
Speaker 1: him no, because he sent him to me in confidence.
Speaker 1: We're they're huge. Where do you stand on that? Like,
Speaker 1: would you be okay with that? Morally speaking? Would you
Speaker 1: be okay with a bookmaking side? I would imagine you'd
Speaker 1: love it, But like you you'd be okay with doing it? Oh? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: And if anybody has a chance. You know, Jimmy Viccara
Speaker 1: this before I went to the South Point. So someone
Speaker 1: around fifteen or sixteen the Daily Show had Jimmy on
Speaker 1: and I was afraid because you know, Daily Show could
Speaker 1: have a lot of guys on back when Stewart was
Speaker 1: on the show and kind of make you look like
Speaker 1: a fool, you know, And they did not make Jimmy
Speaker 1: look like a fool, matter of fact, looked like the
Speaker 1: stage that we know that he is. And he talked
Speaker 1: about betting on the presidential election. And one point that
Speaker 1: he made, which I think is a percent true, if
Speaker 1: he had betting on the election, first of all, to
Speaker 1: be impossible to fix. You know, well, I shouldn't say that.
Speaker 1: Food might be listening, but it was, you know, as
Speaker 1: far as as he loves the show, Yeah, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: looking for value the NFL. Uh. But you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, if you had, if you had betting on it,
Speaker 1: I mean, if you bet your hundred bucks on whoever,
Speaker 1: you would get out and vote. Oh yeah, there's no
Speaker 1: out about it. And that's and that was Jimmy's point.
Speaker 1: I think he made it, and I think you can
Speaker 1: go find it on YouTube. Jimmy's little episode, little segment
Speaker 1: on the Daily Show. It's very good. Like I said,
Speaker 1: he he comes across as the stage that we know
Speaker 1: that he is. Well, he's been sayings and I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's been saying it for years and listen, I made
Speaker 1: a decision very early in right, this show has we
Speaker 1: have been unabashed talking about election betting eight politically speaking,
Speaker 1: and I know there's always gonna be a segment of
Speaker 1: the of the listenership that's like this guy that you
Speaker 1: had on was completely you know, and it's like, no, no,
Speaker 1: he wasn't. You know. We're just trying to be as
Speaker 1: as a political as possible. We're just trying to make
Speaker 1: money and regardless of what your politics might be. And
Speaker 1: there's always a segment out there, there's always a sliver.
Speaker 1: You're always going to hear the vocal minorities like, oh,
Speaker 1: stick to sports, right all that. Uh No, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to stick to sports because authentically, and this show
Speaker 1: has been nothing but authentic through the years. The most
Speaker 1: that I and my buddies, the most that we talk
Speaker 1: about besides football betting or basketball or baseball, whatever is
Speaker 1: the sport at that moment, is political betting. That is
Speaker 1: the thing that is the thread that under that, that
Speaker 1: lies underneath it all throughout, regardless of what sport has
Speaker 1: gone on, and it is some of the most fascinating
Speaker 1: betting arcs and betting analysis that you can get. And
Speaker 1: so I hope people have gotten that this year that um,
Speaker 1: I really believe four years from now everybody's gonna talk
Speaker 1: openly about it. And by the way, I'll tell you
Speaker 1: about the podcast numbers. We So the difference between this
Speaker 1: pulling back the curtain a little bit Guessing Lines and
Speaker 1: the political show that we did last week, which was
Speaker 1: an hour long again with Mac for stand again and
Speaker 1: Pamela Maldonado did a fabulous job on the show. Um,
Speaker 1: we put them in podcast form as well. Now they're
Speaker 1: just shy essing lines on the political show were just
Speaker 1: shy of Megapod numbers. But keep in mind the megapod
Speaker 1: doesn't air on Visa in so Guessing Lines and the
Speaker 1: Political show had the disadvantage, if you will, disadvantage in
Speaker 1: quotes of having aired once and then it goes to podcasts,
Speaker 1: so it's it's like a rebroadcast. And by the way,
Speaker 1: it's kill Alexander, it's Chrissy Andrews right here on a
Speaker 1: numbers game at Visa and the sports spending Network Serious
Speaker 1: XM Channel two oh four, Visa dot Com the Visa
Speaker 1: have foodbo slinging game plus uh talking Guessing Lines week nine,
Speaker 1: which will resume here momentarily, But just to let people know.
Speaker 1: And that's why I always I always listen to people
Speaker 1: or always read people on Twitter sort of smiling, I'm like,
Speaker 1: let me send you the podcast numbers, and then you
Speaker 1: get back to me. And you think, if people are
Speaker 1: interested in this, because that political show was comparable to
Speaker 1: a guessing line show, so people have a thirst for
Speaker 1: it in a way that, uh, in case you're doubting it,
Speaker 1: you shouldn't doubt it. And so I think that all
Speaker 1: lends into is there a thirst for than the audience?
Speaker 1: There absolutely is, And I'm not saying to do it
Speaker 1: every two years. I don't think people are gonna care
Speaker 1: about mid terms, right, but presidential elections different story. Anyway.
Speaker 1: That's my two cents on and the numbers bear it out.
Speaker 1: So we won't do a politics show here. Christ In
Speaker 1: case you were getting worried that that's what we're gonna do,
Speaker 1: you're like, Okay, I want to say, though I listened
Speaker 1: to that show you did with those two last week.
Speaker 1: It was very good, very very good. They were outstanding.
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed that. Yeah, those two were great. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get back to I think one more one more
Speaker 1: morning game, Yes, the New York Football Giants at your
Speaker 1: Washington football team New York hasn't played. They played a
Speaker 1: night against the Buccaneers again. That is my fifth contest pick.
Speaker 1: I'm three and one headed into tonight again. Um hits
Speaker 1: on Minnesota, Denver, and Pittsburgh, but lost on New Orleans.
Speaker 1: So Tampa Bay is is who I'm on tonight. Also
Speaker 1: have them to close out a bunch of teasers. Tampa
Speaker 1: Bay right now a thirteen point favorite. Wow, that's going
Speaker 1: all the way up to thirteen. But you figure the
Speaker 1: Bucks get kind of name their score tonight. So the
Speaker 1: Giants will be on short rest against Washington, and Washington
Speaker 1: will be coming off of by Washington will have a
Speaker 1: week's rest, so it will it will be a completely
Speaker 1: different situation for both teams, the Giants getting the worst
Speaker 1: of that. And uh, it's in d C. You said,
Speaker 1: Is that correct or? Or I should say at Ral
Speaker 1: John outside of d C. Lovely Ral John as he
Speaker 1: was called by a John ken Cook, named after his
Speaker 1: two sons back in the day. Worst traffic arteries you're
Speaker 1: all find into a stadium. I'll say, Washington, this to
Speaker 1: me is more than a field goal. Like I know
Speaker 1: it would be very lazy people like minus three. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say Washington minus four and a half. I think there.
Speaker 1: I think they're a better football team than the Giants.
Speaker 1: I realized they lost last time Ron Rivera going for
Speaker 1: two down one late. I think. I think there's a
Speaker 1: potential for Washington to roll in this game. Yeah, my
Speaker 1: power ratings would be much closer to a three or
Speaker 1: even a little lower. But the situation I think is
Speaker 1: in Washington. Save by the way, numbers three and a half, Okay,
Speaker 1: I see a couple of threes with pretty big juice
Speaker 1: on the savings. I'm gonna open three and athletics that
Speaker 1: one team coming off short rest and the other team
Speaker 1: coming off a bye. Yeah, I don't know why in
Speaker 1: the NFL does that just weird? Especially Yeah for division game. Yes,
Speaker 1: so I think the situation, you know, forget the power ratings,
Speaker 1: uh that sort of thing, the situation really favors Washington
Speaker 1: in this spot. So I don't have any trouble with
Speaker 1: the three and a half. So that's what I'm gonna open.
Speaker 1: I think maybe I don't know numbers wise, like I said,
Speaker 1: it looks high, but the situation, I think it's greatly
Speaker 1: in Washington's favor. So three and act it looks okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that might be a play for me on Washington. Washington
Speaker 1: would be an interesting survivor pick next week. Like if
Speaker 1: you don't have if you don't have the Chiefs available
Speaker 1: to you. Um, I don't know what else game Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: team though they are Washington is a Thanksgiving team. That's
Speaker 1: a great point. Yeah, Washington is a thing skiving teams,
Speaker 1: So that would be Thanksgiving team to likable Thanksgiving. Well,
Speaker 1: they're on the road though on Thanksgiving. If that matters
Speaker 1: to anybody these days, which I'm not sure how much
Speaker 1: it does, but it would be a short week of
Speaker 1: travel anyway to Dallas on Thursday. Okay, next, sir, the
Speaker 1: Raiders at the Chargers. Raiders at the Chargers. So a
Speaker 1: lot went well for me yesterday. In fact, almost everything
Speaker 1: went well for me yesterday betting football except for teaser,
Speaker 1: a teaser with Tennessee in them, and as I mentioned,
Speaker 1: the one contest pick of New Orleans. Everything else teasers galore. Um.
Speaker 1: Tying into Tampa, not not only tying into Tampa but
Speaker 1: also without Tampa went well. Um in game. The only
Speaker 1: thing I did in game now here was the thing.
Speaker 1: This was weather yesterday throughout the country, and one of
Speaker 1: the things I said on the pre snap Picks podcast
Speaker 1: Bradley Porus and Russell Vaughan and Randy Gritchick of the
Speaker 1: Toronto Blue Jays, we were talking about the weather and
Speaker 1: there was a lot of people who set up middles
Speaker 1: for weather last week where they went under early in
Speaker 1: the week and then they took back the over and
Speaker 1: they set up these big middles on totals, which is
Speaker 1: a great strategy. My approach was, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to try to do that because I probably
Speaker 1: missed the best number at that point. So I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. I'm gonna wait. Of all
Speaker 1: these cities that we're gonna supposed to have in clement weather,
Speaker 1: between Green Bay, Cleveland, Buffalo, Cincinnati, and Chicago, I was
Speaker 1: gonna actually sit down and watch the games and figure
Speaker 1: out is there actually in clement weather that's gonna hamper
Speaker 1: any of these football games. And the only game where
Speaker 1: you could say, beyond a shadow of a doubt, oh
Speaker 1: this is a thing was the game in Cleveland. As
Speaker 1: soon as like the one of the first field goals
Speaker 1: looked like it was going right down the pipe, and
Speaker 1: then took a hard left into the stands. I was like,
Speaker 1: oh okay, so I in game undered the Raiders Brown's
Speaker 1: game yesterday at forty four, forty four and a half,
Speaker 1: forty three and a half, forty one and a half,
Speaker 1: thirty nine and a half and thirty seven plus one
Speaker 1: oh six, and that's where I sort of let it go.
Speaker 1: Final score sixteen to six. And that to me, if
Speaker 1: there was ever an I do primetime action with Matt Brown,
Speaker 1: Daniel Vary, and Kelly Bidlin Monday through Friday seven at
Speaker 1: ten on MSG plus seven at ten PM. That's what
Speaker 1: we always preached, like, this is the beauty of endgame, right,
Speaker 1: And that was a perfect in game situation yesterday where
Speaker 1: now they're not always gonna work out as beautifully, don't
Speaker 1: get me wrong, but that was one of those where
Speaker 1: you couldt least see on your screen, Oh man, this
Speaker 1: weather is terrible, and John Gruden looks like he wants
Speaker 1: to get out of here in ninety minutes and just
Speaker 1: run the ball all day long. And that's what he did.
Speaker 1: So the Raiders beat the Browns yesterday sixteen to six
Speaker 1: as three and a half point dogs. Uh. Josh Jacobs
Speaker 1: thirty one carries, one eight yards two hundred and eight
Speaker 1: total rushing yards for the Raiders on forty five carries.
Speaker 1: They were eight of fourteen on third downs, they were
Speaker 1: two of two on fourth. They held the Browns to
Speaker 1: two twenty three total yards. They outpossessed Cleveland thirty seven
Speaker 1: forty three to twenty to seventeen. A lot of big
Speaker 1: disparities in time of possession yesterday, and time of possession
Speaker 1: doesn't always mean something, but yesterday they tended to UH.
Speaker 1: And then they're playing the Chargers. As you said, as
Speaker 1: we talked about Chargers up twenty four to three, they've
Speaker 1: now blown four leads of sixteen plus. It's just incredible.
Speaker 1: We could show those tweets again if you wanted to.
Speaker 1: Jason on the Chargers, just historic. Justin Herbert though twenty
Speaker 1: nine forty three for two seventy eight, three touchdowns, two picks,
Speaker 1: he was sacked twice. Williams five Mike Williams that is
Speaker 1: five catches for ninety nine yards and a touchdown, four
Speaker 1: hundred eighty five total yards for the Chargers in their
Speaker 1: loss to the Broncos yesterday, their thirty one to thirty loss.
Speaker 1: And again here it is Daniel Popper. Chargers blown leads
Speaker 1: in the last four games seventeen points, seventeen points, sixteen points,
Speaker 1: and twenty one points. If you just put up the
Speaker 1: first one for MDESPN stats in Info. You don't have
Speaker 1: to put up both of them, Jason, but just the
Speaker 1: first one really puts it in context again, because this
Speaker 1: is incredible, like it's happening. Were our eyes week after week.
Speaker 1: My entire handicap on the Broncos last week was I
Speaker 1: can't tell you why I'm picking the Broncos, but the
Speaker 1: Charges will just figure out a way to lose this
Speaker 1: Like that was the extent of my handicap. Here. It
Speaker 1: is from ESPN Stats and Info. Teams when leading by
Speaker 1: seventeen plus this season entering last night's game, Chargers oh
Speaker 1: and three, all others fifty two and four. But they
Speaker 1: gave up plays of fifty five yards. That was the
Speaker 1: Lindsay touchdown that made it to ten, then another play
Speaker 1: of forty three yard to Judy. There's a touchdown pass
Speaker 1: for forty yards and they're given up a huge place
Speaker 1: on defense, complimented by a couple of dumb penalties. There
Speaker 1: are your Los Angeles Chargers and all that said, I
Speaker 1: would imagine there'll be a field goal favorite against the
Speaker 1: Raiders at home. Oh you're high, it's one and a half.
Speaker 1: I mean you had pretty much painted on Yeah, my
Speaker 1: number's gonna pick and I had I was reviewing some
Speaker 1: notes next to the Chargers I put down for Anthony
Speaker 1: Lynn approaching rich code type territory. Not we NFL historians
Speaker 1: out there. That's not good. You know, it's funny. Can
Speaker 1: I just interrupt? It's funny you say that because we
Speaker 1: had a debate on text yesterday about this, and somebody
Speaker 1: on the thread said, Anthony Lynn's the worst coach in
Speaker 1: the history of the NFL, and we all and the
Speaker 1: rest of us were like, whoa easy, easy and rich coach?
Speaker 1: Rich co tite was invoked, and I invoked Steve Spurrier
Speaker 1: as a head coach in the NFL. And for those
Speaker 1: who don't remember the two years of Steve Spurrier at
Speaker 1: the helm of the Washington football team, that was the
Speaker 1: analogy I uses. It's like he kidnapped your wife or girlfriend,
Speaker 1: experimented on her for two years, you were left to
Speaker 1: watch it, and then he returned her to you damaged.
Speaker 1: That's how bad those two years were so easy. He's
Speaker 1: not the worst, but he's getting there. Yeah, coming close.
Speaker 1: Yeah yet, but he's getting damn close. I gotta tell
Speaker 1: you so. One and a half is what it is.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna all right, let's go to the afternoon. We
Speaker 1: were in the afternoon. Now, is that already the first afternoon?
Speaker 1: That was the first afternoon? Okay, okay, this one no
Speaker 1: number at all. Steelers at the Cowboys. Steelers at the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: Steelers win, as we mentioned, beat Baltimore four. That match
Speaker 1: is the greatest start. And you know this better than anybody.
Speaker 1: Chrissie has a guy who uh it's a Pittsburgh Steeler fan,
Speaker 1: matches the greatest start in franchise history. Who does it match?
Speaker 1: The nineteen seventy eight Steelers? Is that the most iconic
Speaker 1: of all the Steelers teams? Would you say? I think
Speaker 1: it probably is? Yes, Yeah, probably their best team they
Speaker 1: ever had. Yeah, Big Ben yesterday on eventual Super Bowl
Speaker 1: winning team, of course, Big Bend thirty two for one,
Speaker 1: two two touchdowns, no picks, sack twice. Steelers d had
Speaker 1: four sacks, four takeaways. It's the most rushing you rds.
Speaker 1: The Steelers defense has given up two hundred sixty five
Speaker 1: to the Ravens since the game in nineteen three. And yet,
Speaker 1: as we mentioned, it was the pick six and a
Speaker 1: subsequent pick in the third quarter that that allowed the
Speaker 1: Steelers set up a short field, allowed the Steelers to
Speaker 1: get it within seventeen fourteen. That was really the boost
Speaker 1: that the Steelers offense needed. They finally woke up after that,
Speaker 1: and Steelers end up getting the win. As you said,
Speaker 1: the Ravens had a chance to win it at the
Speaker 1: end still, but the Steelers get it done. And then
Speaker 1: there's Dallas last night. So I'll take a breath, Ben Denucci,
Speaker 1: Vinny Maliulo. As we said on Friday, Ben d Nucci,
Speaker 1: this looks better. This looks better in the box score
Speaker 1: than it was. Twenty one of forty for one eighty,
Speaker 1: no touchdowns, no picks, he was sacked four times. But
Speaker 1: I think there's I think, and I don't mean to
Speaker 1: be harsh, because I'm sure he's a lovely guy and
Speaker 1: I'm sure his family is wonderful, so I don't want
Speaker 1: to be that guy. But I'm not sure after seeing
Speaker 1: that game against the Eagles last night, Chrissy that he
Speaker 1: belongs in the NFL I'm really not No. And you know,
Speaker 1: I was listening in a wretch Ryan and the ESPN show.
Speaker 1: I guess it was Sunday morning. They said, well, you know,
Speaker 1: he transferred from Pitt And Ryan said, well, why did
Speaker 1: he transferred from Pitt? Because he wasn't good enough to start? Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: I you know, I mean he couldn't. You know, I
Speaker 1: can't remember what pit quarterback, you know, Nathan Peterman or
Speaker 1: it was guys. I think it was Post Peterman, you know,
Speaker 1: but it's not exactly the Dan Marino you're Pitt right now.
Speaker 1: So transferring, I don't think it's such a great thing,
Speaker 1: but yeah, you're right, I mean listen, um, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't think he belongs to me. A lot of us,
Speaker 1: don't you know. And I would put him in that category. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I gotta tell you. So, I mean, we
Speaker 1: still want to come up with a number. Here we
Speaker 1: get there. Let me let me just say a couple
Speaker 1: more things about that game, because this will be an
Speaker 1: interesting this will be this will be an interesting do Um.
Speaker 1: First of all, there's none out there, by the way,
Speaker 1: don't Dallas out gained Philadelphia. So all that said about Denucci,
Speaker 1: Dallas outgained Philadelphia yesterday to six to twenty two, and
Speaker 1: Dallas was plus two in turnovers. Philly turned the ball
Speaker 1: over four times as bad as Ben Denucci was, and
Speaker 1: again a guy who transferred from pit to James Madison
Speaker 1: as bad as he was. That game, to me was
Speaker 1: more an indictment of the Philadelphia Eagles, who now lead
Speaker 1: the NFC East at three four and one, than it
Speaker 1: was of the Dallas Cowboys, who are down to their
Speaker 1: third string quarterback. I was we were even as Philly
Speaker 1: was winning that game. I show, like, how many teams
Speaker 1: can you say definitively or worse than the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure the Jets for sure, And then who
Speaker 1: else is like surely worse because even the Jags put
Speaker 1: out great efforts. I don't think Washington's worse. I don't
Speaker 1: know if the Giants are worse. They almost beat the Eagles.
Speaker 1: They should have beaten the Eagles the other night. Like,
Speaker 1: I don't know who's worse than this team. They're so
Speaker 1: bad and and let just say this also, the final
Speaker 1: score was twenty three to nine. The Eagles end up
Speaker 1: covering that game. That last Eagles touchdown was the worst
Speaker 1: non reversal of a touchdown I've ever seen in my life, Like,
Speaker 1: why do we have replay if that wasn't reversed. A
Speaker 1: fumble by Denucci where the defender on the Eagles is
Speaker 1: clearly on the ground and touched and they let the
Speaker 1: play go. And by the way, we're all waiting, right,
Speaker 1: we're all watching the game. We're like, Wow, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be taken back. You know clearly it's gonna be No,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that Dallas were one, but it was
Speaker 1: fifteen to nine at the time, and you never know
Speaker 1: what could have happened because all takes is one flute
Speaker 1: play in a one score game. But Philly should have
Speaker 1: had the ball up fifteen to nine, back in their territory.
Speaker 1: And then as we're like talking about, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you see Jalen Hurts lining up for two point conversially, wait,
Speaker 1: what's happening? They counted it? What are we doing like
Speaker 1: this league? Between that, the Bears fumble that was ruled
Speaker 1: forward progress Russell Wilson, you know, fake sliding and inducing
Speaker 1: a flag. There's so many things that happened in the
Speaker 1: NFL on a week to week basis. We just scratch
Speaker 1: your head and you're like, what are we watching? And
Speaker 1: that Eagles thing, there was no bigger example of it
Speaker 1: than that. Anyway, all that to say, I would say
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh would be a double digit favorite on the road,
Speaker 1: and I would think it would be ten and a half. Well,
Speaker 1: there's no number, so I can't say I like your
Speaker 1: number better or worse, whatever, But my numbers come to
Speaker 1: fourteen on this one. And uh but and you could
Speaker 1: ask your buddy Marco, who I'm sure you're doing. You
Speaker 1: come to the podcast and in no, no, no, not anymore, no, no, okay, okay, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: he would tell you nobody could blow a game that
Speaker 1: they're supposed to win like the Pittsburgh Yeah. I love
Speaker 1: this game, I really do. I think they're playing great.
Speaker 1: But if there's one team out there that could blow
Speaker 1: an easy situations, who is? But I you know, my
Speaker 1: numbers come to four team and you know that's that's
Speaker 1: again you're talking about diminishing returns. That's too high of
Speaker 1: the number. I would be the first who admit that,
Speaker 1: But that's the pure power rating number for me would
Speaker 1: be fourteen, but it has to be lower probably, you know,
Speaker 1: and and a half toiled somewhere in that range, and
Speaker 1: again depends on if Andy Dalton is back. I have
Speaker 1: a feeling Dolt will be back. Yeah, that's a that's
Speaker 1: a huge yeah. Yeah, all right, because you're talking, you know,
Speaker 1: maybe his mediocre as Dalton is, and I still think
Speaker 1: he's not that bad. Denuci probably should not be in
Speaker 1: this league. All right, not at all. We'll come back.
Speaker 1: We've gotta take a break. We'll come back. Christie Andrew's
Speaker 1: guessing lines right here on a numbers game of Visa
Speaker 1: the Sports Betting Network, brought you by bet mg M Nevada.
Speaker 1: We had tweets at beating the book. We always appreciate
Speaker 1: the feedback, positive, negative, indifferent. Funny. We're big fans of funny. Okay,
Speaker 1: so what's upset? What's upsetting? Why's the mouth of WI
Speaker 1: don't what's going on? We had a graphic. It's beautiful.
Speaker 1: There's not a set. Were you amazed at the grabbing?
Speaker 1: We haven't blown away? Weekend tweets graphic Trip Tepper McCaffrey
Speaker 1: being back for the Panthers would be significant. He was
Speaker 1: if he was a lockdown corner. He is not. Thank
Speaker 1: you for that trip. The back end of the Panthers
Speaker 1: defense is struggling to cover unless the Chiefs play sloppy
Speaker 1: or there are forty mile per hour wins. The wide
Speaker 1: receivers are casey should have a field a forty not thirty.
Speaker 1: Forty point taken though, sir, point taken indeed, uh fabulous,
Speaker 1: t Rex Sunshine Jones stops being a political when the
Speaker 1: expert slash, guests, etcetera start editorializing or explaining their rationale
Speaker 1: for predicted outcomes. That said, it's not criticism, just an
Speaker 1: opinion that one cannot really discuss any aspect of politics
Speaker 1: truly a politically I am going to a politically disagree.
Speaker 1: I think they did a fabulous job of explaining, just
Speaker 1: from a demographic standpoint, why uh they felt the way
Speaker 1: they felt at a certain level. It's just numbers, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's funny, it's amazing. It doesn't matter how agnostics. So
Speaker 1: you're just gonna some people gonna take it in as
Speaker 1: a little by the way, he was Republican operative who
Speaker 1: worked in Republican politics for many years. Mac was people
Speaker 1: like the liberal No no, no, he wasn't just explain
Speaker 1: to you what he what he thought, very very dispassionately,
Speaker 1: though um Mark am never forget rich code Tight was
Speaker 1: lauded as a returning hero when the Jets hired him.
Speaker 1: Eagles fans were characterized as fools who one fairly ran
Speaker 1: him off. Hashtag declined the penalty and punt hashtag the
Speaker 1: chart was wet It's great Rich code Tight references from
Speaker 1: Back of the Day Scott Murphy. Since Chrissy is from Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: see if you can work rust belt into the next segment,
Speaker 1: either election or Steeler related. Okay, we'll work on that.
Speaker 1: Um let's see here, man bear Puig. I'm ron burgending
Speaker 1: my way through these, so this could get ugly. Jason
Speaker 1: Standby speaking of the Wilson fake slide. Yes, I was earlier.
Speaker 1: The Mahomes fake run quarterback against Buffalo was bad. Defenders
Speaker 1: ease up, then he stays in bounds. This can't be
Speaker 1: a one size fits all rule. Can't expect defenders to
Speaker 1: treat Jackson and Murray the same as Rivers and Breeze. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that that's gonna be a hard one to to get
Speaker 1: around that one. But because I don't know, if I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's a I mean, you're right, there
Speaker 1: is a bit of a star system thing happening, but
Speaker 1: that's generally officiated the same. But I hear you. I
Speaker 1: mean there's definitely players who get I mean, I would
Speaker 1: I said that about the Saints earlier with that you
Speaker 1: know that fumble that the Bears by the way, how
Speaker 1: many late drive good fortune moments have the Bears had
Speaker 1: this year? They're five and three, and again paper Tiger.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody expects them to win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: But that game against Tampa Bay were they you know,
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay gifted them the the roughing the passer and
Speaker 1: then the ball that was completely uncatchable that they flagged
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay for p I. They end up winning the
Speaker 1: game twenty to nineteen. And then Yesterday's like that that
Speaker 1: was okay, maybe it was for progress, but like why
Speaker 1: did the refs field the need to step in? And
Speaker 1: that's where like fans of teams like Washington would say,
Speaker 1: like myself would be like, oh yeah, that never, that
Speaker 1: would never happen to the Washington football team. We would
Speaker 1: never get the benefit or we but that team would
Speaker 1: never get the benefit of such a call. Uh. Let's see,
Speaker 1: this is Phil Weiss, Phil Weiss, Steve Spurri or two
Speaker 1: years of Washington twelve and twenty rich co tight two
Speaker 1: years of the Jets four and twenty eight. Rod Marinelli
Speaker 1: deserves an honorable mention in this category. I mean he
Speaker 1: did go oh in sixteen for the Lion. Uh. Phil
Speaker 1: goes on to say Steve Spurrier College Football Hall of
Speaker 1: Fame as player as coach. I don't care about that.
Speaker 1: Rich co type born in Brooklyn, still can't show his
Speaker 1: face in New York. Really, Gil, please don't insult Jets
Speaker 1: fans like that. Apparently you don't remember the two Spurier
Speaker 1: years five and eleven, five and eleven and sixteen beats
Speaker 1: five and eleven. Not too bad. See there's another team
Speaker 1: out there, there's four and twelve, so yeah, not too bad. Please.
Speaker 1: I cannot argue this point. There was no one worse.
Speaker 1: But you're right about the record. We'll come back. We'll
Speaker 1: continue guessing lines with Chrissy. Next numbers game at Visa
Speaker 1: the Sports Betty netwhere the Dolphins at the Cardinals. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I've been waiting to get to this box score
Speaker 1: because because the the Steelers Ravens box score was weird enough,
Speaker 1: but this Dolphins rams box score was is the nuttiest
Speaker 1: thing you're likely to see and by the way, of course,
Speaker 1: if you missed it. Miami wins in Tua's debut to seventeen.
Speaker 1: They do so as three and a half point dogs
Speaker 1: my only three pre flop bets this year. Again Miami
Speaker 1: over season win total six, New England under nine and
Speaker 1: a half Miami to win the division at at plus
Speaker 1: eleven fifty all of those in play, the first two
Speaker 1: looking great, the second one kind of in playsh but
Speaker 1: in this in this game, even even despite Miami winning
Speaker 1: yesterday to a t A Taco Valoa in his debut
Speaker 1: twelve of twenty two for ninety three yards ninety three yards,
Speaker 1: one touchdown note picks we sacked ones. Uh. The Rams
Speaker 1: had thirty one first downs, the Dolphins had eight. The
Speaker 1: Dolphins were three of twelve on third downs. The Rams
Speaker 1: had four hundred and seventy one total yards, the Dolphins
Speaker 1: had one hundred forty five. The Rams had three hundred
Speaker 1: forty two three hundred forty passing the Dolphins had ninety
Speaker 1: passing when you factor in sacks. The Rams had a
Speaker 1: hundred thirty one rushing yards, the Dolphins had fifty five.
Speaker 1: The Rams ran ninety two offensive plays. The Dolphins ran.
Speaker 1: The Rams had the ball thirty six twenty nine to
Speaker 1: the Dolphins twenty three minutes and thirty one seconds. The
Speaker 1: Dolphins were minus excuse me. The Dolphins, though, were plus
Speaker 1: two in turnovers. That's always a huge key. And Miami
Speaker 1: scores were as follows. Two short fields on an interception
Speaker 1: Christian Wilkins uh and a fumble Kyle van Noy thirty
Speaker 1: three yard field in a one yard field and then
Speaker 1: one strip sack return for a touch down Emmanuel Logba
Speaker 1: on the strip Andrew Van Ginkle to the house and
Speaker 1: a punt return touchdowns Jachem Grant for Radi eight yards.
Speaker 1: There is your script for Miami win yesterday, but one
Speaker 1: of one of the craziest box scores you'll ever see
Speaker 1: at Arizona. Arizona is coming off of by here. I'll say,
Speaker 1: Arizona minus four and a half. Yeah, you're right on.
Speaker 1: I do see one five, but otherwise four and a half.
Speaker 1: You know, you know, I think that's a little high.
Speaker 1: You know, I really do, right, You know, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: not the biggest Murray fan, a lout a Kingsbury fan. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, the Dolphins. I know everything you say, obviously,
Speaker 1: it was true when you're reading a box score, but
Speaker 1: they didn't have to do anything else. That's right, And
Speaker 1: you know, I think, you know, we talked about coaching,
Speaker 1: and I really highly questioned the move to go to
Speaker 1: to AH. They still question to move to go to
Speaker 1: to AH, you know. But you know, Floors has done
Speaker 1: a terrific job with this team. He really has. I
Speaker 1: think you a really good coach, and I think the
Speaker 1: sky is bright on the horizon for the Dolphins. I
Speaker 1: think this is a take, you know, and I don't
Speaker 1: think you know to you know, he looked very mediocre obviously,
Speaker 1: you know, but that's all we had to do. And
Speaker 1: I think it was a good first game for him.
Speaker 1: You know, when we look back to win a game
Speaker 1: like that where he hardly had to do anything, certainly
Speaker 1: nothing dramatic, I think he'll learn from that and probably
Speaker 1: get better. You know. I'd like to get lower. My
Speaker 1: numbers really came to like three and a half here, Um,
Speaker 1: we're talking about four and a half, and like I said,
Speaker 1: even saw five. But I'm gonna go with the four
Speaker 1: and a half. And if I see it going lower,
Speaker 1: probably gonna drop. But I think my name is a
Speaker 1: very live dog in this situation. All right, one one
Speaker 1: head nod to the Dolphins on that. I like that
Speaker 1: for all my future tickets. We have two prime times,
Speaker 1: two prime time games to get to Sunday night and
Speaker 1: Monday night. We'll do that next with Chrissy and we'll
Speaker 1: tell you what we like in review coming back guessing
Speaker 1: lines right here in a numbers game at Visa and
Speaker 1: these sports betting network, Gail Alexander, it's Chris Andrews. Everybody,
Speaker 1: the South Point Hotel casino, sports book director and of
Speaker 1: course the author of Then One Day, Then One Day,
Speaker 1: all the story times and more culled together for one
Speaker 1: beautiful book available where all books are sold, including Amazon.
Speaker 1: All right, Sunday night, Chrissy, Okay, another good one here,
Speaker 1: Gil Saint at the Buck. It's a good week, good
Speaker 1: matchups uh and good prime time too, although we'll see
Speaker 1: about that Thursday night game now that a J. Dillon. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Sunday night too, so oh like, oh, I think I
Speaker 1: know it's coming. New Orleans at Tampa Bay, New Orleans.
Speaker 1: As we mentioned, they win it on Will Lutz's thirty
Speaker 1: five yard field goal with one minute and forty seconds
Speaker 1: left in ot yesterday against the Bears. Drew Brees thirty
Speaker 1: one of forty one for two eighty two touchdowns. Note
Speaker 1: pics sacked once again. Can't really throw the ball down field.
Speaker 1: Alvin Camaro though twelve sixty seven on the ground n
Speaker 1: through the air. The Saints were two of thirteen on
Speaker 1: third downs. They were two of three on fourth downs.
Speaker 1: They get it done, they find a way, they don't cover,
Speaker 1: but they do get the win twenty six to twenty three.
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay plays tonight, so they're gonna be on short rest,
Speaker 1: but they get the Giants, so could be a coaster
Speaker 1: for the Bucks tonight. I'll say it's Tampa Bay by
Speaker 1: more than a field goal. I think there's some residual
Speaker 1: love for the Saints still, So I'm gonna guess that
Speaker 1: it's four, and I may bet the Bucks well, we're
Speaker 1: thinking the same. It's four and four and a half.
Speaker 1: I absolutely like the four and a half better. I
Speaker 1: think this number should be closer to six. Uh, the
Speaker 1: Saints are just not that good. Yeah, you know you're
Speaker 1: talking about some residual love. Yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 1: There's we're still looking at this team like they're serious
Speaker 1: Super Bowl contenders as they were last year, the year before,
Speaker 1: year before that, blah blah blah. But I don't think
Speaker 1: they are this year. I just don't think they're that good. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, Breeze just can't get the ball downfield, and
Speaker 1: they have some pieces that they've been missing him and
Speaker 1: out through us the course of the year. Maybe they
Speaker 1: get healthy. A lot of things gonna happen. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's the NFL. Crazy things happen, But right now, I
Speaker 1: do not think this team is in the level of
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, and I think the Bucks are getting better
Speaker 1: and better every week. They might sleep walk through tonight's game.
Speaker 1: I know that I kind of like them, even minus
Speaker 1: the number. But you know, you always see crazy things
Speaker 1: happen in the NFL. They can win by ten and
Speaker 1: the Giants never have a chance to win the game,
Speaker 1: and of course then they don't cover. But this I
Speaker 1: think this is a game where they will be primes
Speaker 1: for this game. And I think four is a number
Speaker 1: you've gotta lay in the spot. You know, the Saints
Speaker 1: just aren't that good, and I think the Bucks are
Speaker 1: getting better and better every single week. I love people
Speaker 1: should know we we do not talk about these games beforehand,
Speaker 1: so we both had the same exact thing to say
Speaker 1: about this game without ever having talked to each other,
Speaker 1: which is, we think it's lower than it ought to be.
Speaker 1: And this would be a bet on the on the
Speaker 1: bucks from from our perspective Monday night. God help us,
Speaker 1: because I know we've had too many good matchups. What
Speaker 1: what I know the Jets haven't been used yet, so
Speaker 1: it's probably a Jets game. Yeah, Patriots and the Jets
Speaker 1: at Patriots at the Jet. Oh, this is kind of
Speaker 1: interesting actually, so yeah, no, it's not a good game.
Speaker 1: Patriots worst start since two thousand We can say this
Speaker 1: every week now, first four game losing streaks since two
Speaker 1: thousand two. Again, they lose to the Bills yesterday by
Speaker 1: a field goal, had a chance to win it. Cam
Speaker 1: fumbles Cam Newton yesterday for one seventy four, no touchdowns,
Speaker 1: no picks, He was sacked twice. He was nine for
Speaker 1: fifty four on the ground with a touchdown. But again,
Speaker 1: is that fumble that's all people will remember. Damien Harris
Speaker 1: sixteen for one oh two on the ground with a touchdown,
Speaker 1: and the Jets yesterday and losing to the Chiefs, as
Speaker 1: he mentioned, just sort of inept. But to be expected.
Speaker 1: Sam Donald eighteen of thirty for just one thirty three,
Speaker 1: no touchdowns, no picks. He was sacked once. The Jets
Speaker 1: were two of twelve on third downs. They were two
Speaker 1: of two on fourth but only two and twenty one
Speaker 1: total yards. As we said earlier, so the Jets are
Speaker 1: the only winless team in football. The Steelers still the
Speaker 1: only undefeated team in football. But this is the Patriots
Speaker 1: at the Jets on a Monday night. Yes, okay, listen,
Speaker 1: are the Jets gonna win at any point this year?
Speaker 1: And if they are going to win, isn't this the
Speaker 1: situation on a Monday night or perhaps more accurately Week seventeen.
Speaker 1: I know this because we've been talking about this prop
Speaker 1: at DraftKings on on Primetime Action where they have the
Speaker 1: Jets to go winless, and we've talked about it before.
Speaker 1: It's sort of got popular. Learned when it was plus
Speaker 1: seven hundred something and we were like, that's a great bet.
Speaker 1: Now it's not a good bet because it's like plus
Speaker 1: two d is. But if you're looking at where could
Speaker 1: the Jets lose, it's that Week seventeen squirrelly game against
Speaker 1: the Patriots of the Patriots have nothing to play for.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the spot where the Jets win, but I
Speaker 1: don't know. This is a Monday night, and I get it.
Speaker 1: It's Bill Belichick. So the Patriots are gonna be favored,
Speaker 1: and they're probably gonna be favored by a nice, healthy amount,
Speaker 1: but that's because it's Belichick. What you see on the field. Now,
Speaker 1: they gotta get the Patriots have to get some bodies
Speaker 1: back because yesterday they didn't have Edelman, they didn't have
Speaker 1: and kill Harry. So it's like, at some point, I
Speaker 1: don't care who you are, you have all those opt
Speaker 1: outs on defense, you need bodies to win an NFL game.
Speaker 1: The Patriots almost beat the Bills yesterday, so they deserve
Speaker 1: a lot of credit for that. But could you also
Speaker 1: see them being in a dog fight with the Jets.
Speaker 1: I kind of could. I'm not saying the Jets are
Speaker 1: gonna win, but whatever this number is, it is probably
Speaker 1: gonna be more than it should be. I will say
Speaker 1: the Patriots minus sick, Yeah, you're low. I see it
Speaker 1: anywhere from seven uh to seven with decent juice on
Speaker 1: the favorite. I did see some seven and a half.
Speaker 1: They seem to be gone unless you want to pay
Speaker 1: some new order and behind the juice. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: I kind of like the higher number here. You know,
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna probably open seven a half. They'll
Speaker 1: probably grab it off me. Become Monday night, I might
Speaker 1: be uh yeah, I'm probably gonna be rooting for the Jets. Um.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I think the paths right now.
Speaker 1: They they showed, they showed a lot of courage. They
Speaker 1: showed there's still a viable team certainly getting points. This
Speaker 1: may be a spot where they say, you know what,
Speaker 1: let's let it all hang out. We could be more
Speaker 1: button teams like the Jets. The Jets cover one game
Speaker 1: so far this year? Is that what it one? They're
Speaker 1: owen seven on in your standings and Owen seven is
Speaker 1: seven eight and seven in both a t s straight up. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I thought they might have covered against the Bills like Clintland. Never,
Speaker 1: I'd like the higher number. I think it will probably
Speaker 1: open seven and a half. I'm sure they'll grab it
Speaker 1: off me. But I'm want to take a bet there,
Speaker 1: and like I said, I think come Monday night, I'll
Speaker 1: probably be happy I got it. Christie, You're right. They
Speaker 1: did cover against this degree. They did not cover it was.
Speaker 1: It was eighteen to ten, and I think they did
Speaker 1: cover that. Yeah they did because my bad. Yeah they
Speaker 1: covered one spread and moved. Yeah, I got that down
Speaker 1: twills one on teasers, but they but the Jets actually covered.
Speaker 1: You're right, yeah, that we we sold them short. They
Speaker 1: do have one cover. I had New England yesterday, every
Speaker 1: podcast I did, I had New England. They didn't end
Speaker 1: up being a contest pick for me because of all
Speaker 1: those injuries at the end of the week Edelman and
Speaker 1: Harry and it was just like, okay, like you know,
Speaker 1: at some point, I really like the Patriots, but I
Speaker 1: can't put them in the contest. But I had them
Speaker 1: every other which way, um, and they almost won the game.
Speaker 1: I think I would steer as far clear of this
Speaker 1: Monday night game is humanly possible, and just definitely the
Speaker 1: Jets are o end eight oh and eight and seven
Speaker 1: against one and seven against the spread. I knew we'd
Speaker 1: figure it out by the end of the by the
Speaker 1: end of the show, and eight straight up one and
Speaker 1: seven against the spread. That is your New York Jets, everybody, Um, okay,
Speaker 1: So and the number is then what seven and a
Speaker 1: half in the end, I'm gonna open seven half. It's
Speaker 1: mostly seven, but seven. Most of the sevens have juice
Speaker 1: on the favorite. Okay, so I'm anna open seven half,
Speaker 1: take a bet, and then we'll be at seven. So
Speaker 1: you liked from a bidding standpoint, you liked a lot here, Chris. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've got four games next to me that I kind
Speaker 1: of like. Um, I like the Broncos getting points. Ravens.
Speaker 1: I think you're buying low on a very very good team.
Speaker 1: What probably you know, maybe not the Steam in the NFL,
Speaker 1: but certainly among the groups who could be second, Like
Speaker 1: the Dolphins getting a big, you know, a decent number
Speaker 1: four and a half. And I like the Bucks, which
Speaker 1: I think that numbers kind of cheak against the Saints.
Speaker 1: I think the Saints are just not that good. I
Speaker 1: like the Ravens, Washington and Tampa Bay. And I also
Speaker 1: like mechanically by the number, I like the Bears, but
Speaker 1: I can't see myself pulling the trigger on it, just
Speaker 1: because I I just don't trust that offense at all.
Speaker 1: So those are the ones. I mean, that's from a
Speaker 1: number standpoint. I think the Bears Titans being six that
Speaker 1: seems a little out of whack, but it's not like
Speaker 1: I rushed to the counter to bet bet the Bears.
Speaker 1: I think I like a lot of these short favorites
Speaker 1: more than their number indicates. So I like Baltimore in Indianapolis.
Speaker 1: If it's just what is the number again, Baltimore Indianapolis? Sure, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I like. I definitely like Baltimore. I think Washington is
Speaker 1: better than a three or three and a half point
Speaker 1: favorite against the Giants. Whatever you said it was, Oh, jil,
Speaker 1: hang on one second, hang on. The Ravens game is
Speaker 1: going off the board pretty much everywhere. That's because of
Speaker 1: the Yeah, yeah, that's because of Marlin h So that's
Speaker 1: the deal. So the so covid on a J. Dillon
Speaker 1: with the Packers short week here against the Niners, that's
Speaker 1: the most pressing because it's a Thursday night scheduled game.
Speaker 1: And now the Baltimore game with Marlon Humphrey testing positive
Speaker 1: this morning, that game against the Colts is off the board.
Speaker 1: The other one that I really like is Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: If Tampa Bay is only four against the Saints, that
Speaker 1: might be an all in irresponsible wager on my plan.
Speaker 1: My part on Sunday Night, Chrissie I speak on behalf
Speaker 1: of everybody more than anything. We're so happy you're doing better,
Speaker 1: continued improvements, sir, Well, I'm happy I'm doing better too,
Speaker 1: and thanks everybody. Got a lot of well wishers out there,
Speaker 1: and thank Paul. And I'm very on or that you
Speaker 1: would even take them me in a situation like this.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, thinking about you. Good talking to you.
Speaker 1: You were kind of you guys. Oh my god, I'm go.
Speaker 1: We love it. Christian coming back and good luck with him.
Speaker 1: Nightcamemall but in the Sports Betting Network
