Speaker 1: b F F S. Here's Frank Stamford. I am Greg
Speaker 1: Sauceman and making his return for the first time in
Speaker 1: twenty e y Eric Young, who's here to puff us
Speaker 1: up about the day of the Denver. About the Tennessee
Speaker 1: Titans still in the playoffs. I said deep for Derry
Speaker 1: Henry hounding their way to Baltimore. We'll see what happens
Speaker 1: on Saturday night. Frankie, what's happening man, Greggy? Happy Friday
Speaker 1: to you. Lots to talk about the NFL Divisional round
Speaker 1: of the playoffs. I know that you continuously say this
Speaker 1: year after year, Greg that this is your favorite week
Speaker 1: of the first I always remember, Baby, that's the weekend
Speaker 1: of the year. We've got the the eight best teams
Speaker 1: left in the NFL this week playing, So there's a
Speaker 1: lot to talk about from a betting fantasy perspective, and
Speaker 1: of course I talk about our Tennessee Titans, Baby, Derrick
Speaker 1: Henry going up against the Baltimore Ravens. So early in
Speaker 1: the week you reached out to Eric, You're like, hey,
Speaker 1: you around this week. He's like, no, man, I can't
Speaker 1: make it. Text was like, dude, we need you on Friday.
Speaker 1: Like Titans, it's the playoffs. We're not here that often.
Speaker 1: And he's like, I'll be there. Welcome back you w boys. Uh.
Speaker 1: It is an excellent time of year. Hockey is in
Speaker 1: fal swing. There's some other sports that I don't talk
Speaker 1: about that won't be named, and football playoffs and it's
Speaker 1: awesome for me. The Titans are still in it. Uh.
Speaker 1: They're looking They're looking real, real good, real real dangerous.
Speaker 1: The Ravens are unbelievable. Lamar Jackson is terrifying. But if
Speaker 1: you're gonna beat the Baltimore Ravens, you gotta have a
Speaker 1: solid running game. Titans are built on that. Derrick Henry
Speaker 1: is going to go off again. Uh, it is necessary.
Speaker 1: Tannehill is playing the best football of his entire career,
Speaker 1: and Uh, I can't. I couldn't be more excited for tomorrow. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm so pumped. Are you? Will you listen? It's a
Speaker 1: long way to go wherever, but it may make it
Speaker 1: the Super Roll. Will you be there? Uh? That uh
Speaker 1: be an expensive endeavor I would imagine. Um, But I
Speaker 1: mean I have tons of people that have tons of
Speaker 1: contacts in Tampa. Tampa is uh a wrestling mecca. Um.
Speaker 1: Tons of the guys live there, They know people that
Speaker 1: know people. So look at I will. I will do
Speaker 1: everything in my power to be there if the Titans
Speaker 1: make it into the Super Bowl. Uh. Not promising anything,
Speaker 1: but it's looking promising, guys. I mean, you never know
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Sports is crazy, Football is is madness. Um.
Speaker 1: But but any team of these final eight could I
Speaker 1: could see winning the Super Bowl. It could happen any
Speaker 1: which way. Tennessee was incredibly impressive last week in their
Speaker 1: win against New England. Derrick Henry did what he's done
Speaker 1: all season long, what EY expected him to do all
Speaker 1: season long. That's how good this team has been. We'll
Speaker 1: get to Tennessee in a little bit only because I
Speaker 1: want to go in game order here and I just
Speaker 1: want to, um, just make it easy for us rather
Speaker 1: than jumping around, right, just do it by the day. Interestingly,
Speaker 1: enough is the first weekend I believe ever in the
Speaker 1: divisional weekend where the Sunday games have been moved back.
Speaker 1: It's three thirty, three o'clock and six thirty here, um,
Speaker 1: kind of like Championship Sunday, because well ratings, why doing
Speaker 1: it one and four? We can do it at three
Speaker 1: and six thirty. So that's this Sunday the game started.
Speaker 1: I leave three or five and six four you I
Speaker 1: think of the official start times, but like three thirty
Speaker 1: or what we'll say, the first game of the day
Speaker 1: is on Saturday night three thirty I believe four o'clock,
Speaker 1: four thirties, and like that, right thirty is the game.
Speaker 1: It is at four thirty five or thirty. You got
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners at home and they are
Speaker 1: taken on the Minnesota Vikings. Of Vikings get by the
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints last week we talked or Ey just
Speaker 1: mentioned a moment ago Frank that the way that he
Speaker 1: thinks you could beat Baltimore control the running game, running
Speaker 1: down their throats with Derrick Henry. That's what Minnesota needs
Speaker 1: to do against San Francisco in order for them to
Speaker 1: have a shot. With Dalvin Cook, he looked healthy last week,
Speaker 1: played really really, really really well. I thought last week
Speaker 1: they're big underdog in San Francisco. Dalvin Cook get the
Speaker 1: job done. When the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, well, Dalvin
Speaker 1: Cook might be able to get the job done, but
Speaker 1: I'm not sure the entire Minnesota Vikings team will be
Speaker 1: able to do that against the San Francisco forty Niners,
Speaker 1: who are coming off the by here under Kyle Shanahan.
Speaker 1: I thought the Vikings did a phenomenal job last week
Speaker 1: against the New Orleans Saints. Their game land getting after
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, causing lots of pressure like they have done
Speaker 1: all season. I thought their secondary played much better than
Speaker 1: we've seen for most of the season as well. Coming
Speaker 1: into this game, Xavier Rhodes dealing with that shoulder injury.
Speaker 1: He's gonna play, but how healthy is he? I think
Speaker 1: that's a big question in this game. Obviously, you gotta
Speaker 1: worry about Deebo Samuel on the outside, Emmanuel Sanders in
Speaker 1: the slot, who has a ton of postseason experience. I
Speaker 1: haven't even named George Kittle yet, who is the number
Speaker 1: one receiver for the San Francisco forty Niners team. So
Speaker 1: if you asked me, I think it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: tough task for the Minnesota Vikings here, Greg. I think
Speaker 1: that the way for them to slow down that pass
Speaker 1: rush of San Francisco is running the ball with Dalvin
Speaker 1: Cook set up play action. Obviously that's what they want
Speaker 1: to do, but San Francisco's defense has been one of
Speaker 1: the best all season long, specifically against the run as well.
Speaker 1: You ask me for this game, I am. I'm willing
Speaker 1: to lay the points with the San Francisco forty Niners.
Speaker 1: I think they get it done and this is probably
Speaker 1: one of the sides that I feel most strongly about
Speaker 1: this weekend. Also, really like San Francisco in this game.
Speaker 1: I thought Kirk Cousins got rid of a lot of
Speaker 1: demons last week in New Orleans. I thought that he
Speaker 1: played a really safe, but really good ball game. Hit
Speaker 1: his marks with Adam Feeland and Stefan Daves of Devin
Speaker 1: Cook did a really nice job. But I think giving
Speaker 1: the San Francisco for Ators a week off, which they
Speaker 1: desperately needed, Uh, they're gonna be able to kind of
Speaker 1: do what Minnesota does. I think, just do it better,
Speaker 1: and that's running the football with Rhem Boster and Tevin
Speaker 1: Coleman and Matt Rada and utilizing George Kittle their number
Speaker 1: one receiver. As you mentioned, season trickery out of Deebo Samuel. Uh.
Speaker 1: New Orleans they got shell shocked last week. I don't
Speaker 1: think San Francisco, who has a better defense than the
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints, they get nearly shell shocks. I also
Speaker 1: like San Francisco, and I will also take the points.
Speaker 1: Why what about you? Yeah, San Francisco for me? Love
Speaker 1: the forty Niners. Um Shanahanna's got these guys. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just his offense is so unique, so different, it's
Speaker 1: hard to prepare for it. You never know where the
Speaker 1: ball is going to go. So that would be my pick.
Speaker 1: But happy for Kirk Cousins showing up in a playoff
Speaker 1: game the last throw where he dropped it in for
Speaker 1: a touchdown. UM, that's solidified was a guy that can
Speaker 1: get it done in the game when when it's when
Speaker 1: it's important, right, San Francisco pick. We all said, we
Speaker 1: come back the mein event on Saturday night TENNESSEEE. NFL

Speaker 1: games too on Saturday too, on Sunday, and now it's time.
Speaker 1: In a moment, we'll get into Saturday night. We'll get
Speaker 1: into the Titans. We'll get to the Ravens before we do. Right,
Speaker 1: he has some props you want to talk about from
Speaker 1: San Francisco in Minnesota. Yeah, I wanted to get into
Speaker 1: some props real quick for this game. I like Raheem
Speaker 1: Moster to score a touchdown. That you're getting that a
Speaker 1: plus one fifteen right now. He has scored uh seven
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the final six games for the San Francisco
Speaker 1: forty nine ers since Week thirteen on leads San Francisco
Speaker 1: with eight red zone carries. The next closest on the
Speaker 1: team is Tevin Coleman with just two. So he only
Speaker 1: gets around you know, ten to twelve maybe thirteen fourteen
Speaker 1: carries a game, but he does get the work in
Speaker 1: the red zone. So I like for he most to
Speaker 1: score touchdown in this game. I like Kyle Rudolph over
Speaker 1: two and a half receptions. San fran has allowed a
Speaker 1: tight end to go over this in four of their
Speaker 1: last five games. Uh. Ky Rudolph had four receptions last week.
Speaker 1: He's been a little bit more involved recently, so those
Speaker 1: are a few props that I like, and I also
Speaker 1: have some trends. Greg trying a bunch of from Gabe
Speaker 1: rency Joe Rner. He's roughout the week. On the morning after.
Speaker 1: I'm down in the pit. I'm working. Also, got one
Speaker 1: ear open. I'm listening to all the trends that these
Speaker 1: guys are throwing out here. How about this? Here you go.
Speaker 1: Minnesota last seventeen games on the road in January three
Speaker 1: and fourteen straight up, four and thirteen against the spread.
Speaker 1: I know Gabe has talked about a lot about wild
Speaker 1: card teams having to win back to back games on
Speaker 1: the road in the NFL playoffs. It's tough to do.
Speaker 1: I think it will be tough for the Minnesota Vikings
Speaker 1: to do just that this week as well. San Francisco
Speaker 1: getting healthy at the right time. D four will be
Speaker 1: back in this game. I'm laying the points with San Francisco.
Speaker 1: Most are to score a touchdown. Kyle Rudolf over two
Speaker 1: and a half receptions. Greg. Those are the props right
Speaker 1: here for me. I'll commenting on them. U it seems easy.
Speaker 1: It was too easy. I like these low props on
Speaker 1: like peripheral players. You know, it just seems it just
Speaker 1: seems too easy. The most are one I don't like
Speaker 1: because I was doing the research on mostly going into
Speaker 1: the playoffs and he's just not all that involved in
Speaker 1: the passing game. It is. It's risky because again he
Speaker 1: only sees like ten to twelve carries a game, but
Speaker 1: he dominates the red zone usage for one of the best,
Speaker 1: definitely one of the best schemed rushing attacks in the NFL.
Speaker 1: With Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco forty Niners, he
Speaker 1: seems to be the go to guy. Wouldn't surprise me
Speaker 1: if he actually sees more work in this game. I
Speaker 1: think he has earned that. I think he's earned the
Speaker 1: respect and the trust of Kyle Shanahan and this forty
Speaker 1: Niners team. So wouldn't surprise me if he sees more
Speaker 1: work in this game as well. Alvin Kamara got in
Speaker 1: the end zone last week for the Saints. I like
Speaker 1: most of score touchdown this week. Wants to get to Tennessee.
Speaker 1: That's Tennessee and Baltimore. Derrick Henry leading the tie against Baltimore.
Speaker 1: Here's my question for really why so? Last week? Obviously,
Speaker 1: Tennessee defeated New England. The quarterback Ryan Tande Hill through
Speaker 1: for seventy two yards. That's probably not going to get
Speaker 1: it done against Baltimore. What do you think you need
Speaker 1: from Ryan tadne Hill this week for Tennessee to win? Uh?
Speaker 1: And I mean I do feel it's They're gonna be
Speaker 1: a very similar game plan. Um. They wanted to keep
Speaker 1: the ball out of Brady's hands, even though he has
Speaker 1: not even been close to the quarterback la Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: has been. But the reality is is this time of year,
Speaker 1: and I know it's cliche, but running the football is
Speaker 1: what wins playoff games. I don't know if there's any
Speaker 1: team better suited to run the football than the Tennessee
Speaker 1: Titans that has left in the playoffs. Derrick Henry Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I mean, yes, I'm a homer, Um,
Speaker 1: but in my opinion, you know, just knowing, you know,
Speaker 1: listening to what the Titans were talking about and what
Speaker 1: they wanted to do and how this offense was was designed. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, it was spending a heavy premium on good
Speaker 1: run blocking offensive lineman. Um having a bunch of tight
Speaker 1: ends that are very good at run blocking. Nobody wants
Speaker 1: to tackle this guy. I mean, you could see it
Speaker 1: in last year or last week's game. Um, he would
Speaker 1: come over the edge and and a cornerback, hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty pound cornerback would be falling away as he was
Speaker 1: running into because nobody wants to get in his way.
Speaker 1: It's going to be very similar. It's going to be
Speaker 1: cool in Baltimore. You mean they're of an outdoor stadium.
Speaker 1: It could even possibly be raining. Um and for me,
Speaker 1: the worst of weather, the better it is for the Titans.
Speaker 1: I think if Tannehill can throw a hundred and twenty
Speaker 1: five yards and Henry cannavro over a hundred and twenty yards,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a tough team to beat. I'm with
Speaker 1: e Y on this one as well. I don't know
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna call the Tennessee Titans outright win here,
Speaker 1: and we'll go back to my handy days. It's been
Speaker 1: ongoing for a week, but Saturday games since two thousand
Speaker 1: and six, home teams are eighteen and two straight up
Speaker 1: there fifteen and five against the spread, So that doesn't
Speaker 1: bode well for the Tennessee Titans. Home teams over the
Speaker 1: past two years are seven and one straight up over
Speaker 1: the last six years. Their nineteen and five straight up.
Speaker 1: What that means to me is there's one team this
Speaker 1: weekend that can pull out the upset, and to me,
Speaker 1: the two most likely teams that are able to do
Speaker 1: that are the Tennessee Titans and the Seattle Seahawks. And
Speaker 1: I think that what Ey said, And although it is cliche,
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is a walking cliche right now. He gets
Speaker 1: stronger as the game goes on, and that's something you
Speaker 1: don't want to see if you're an opposing defense in
Speaker 1: the NFL playoffs. So I agree with what I said
Speaker 1: regarding Derrick Henry. I like the over on his rushing
Speaker 1: yards in this game as well. It's a huge number.
Speaker 1: It's ninety four and a half on his rushing yardage
Speaker 1: prop greg. But over the past, what do I have here?
Speaker 1: He's averaging one hundred fifty four rushing yards per game
Speaker 1: over his last seven games. I mean he is. He's
Speaker 1: on a rampage right now, a hundred and eighty two
Speaker 1: rushing yards. Last week against the New England Patriots, who
Speaker 1: were one of the best run defenses all season long,
Speaker 1: he ran for two hundred and eleven yards. The final
Speaker 1: game of the season in Week seventeen, Derrick Henry is
Speaker 1: just on a different level, and you can run against Baltimore.
Speaker 1: That's the biggest difference. You don't want to attack them
Speaker 1: through the air since they acquired Marcus Peters and everyone
Speaker 1: has got healthy in that secondary with Jimmy Smith. You
Speaker 1: don't want to throw against this Baltimore Ravens secondary, but
Speaker 1: you can run against them. Their nineteenth and run defense
Speaker 1: DV away, they allow the tenth highest yards per carry
Speaker 1: to opposing running backs four point four to all. That
Speaker 1: to me means that Derrick Henry is gonna have success
Speaker 1: in this game to an extent. They're going to be
Speaker 1: able to keep keep away. They're gonna be able to
Speaker 1: play keep away from Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense,
Speaker 1: who that is the best offense in the NFL. And
Speaker 1: I think that is a recipe to keep keep this
Speaker 1: game closer. I don't think that Tennessee is gonna win
Speaker 1: this game. I'm sorry, e Y, but I think that
Speaker 1: it's going to be closer than the spread reveals with
Speaker 1: the Ravens being nine and a half point favorites. With
Speaker 1: all that being said, Greg, if the Ravens get off
Speaker 1: to a hot start, if they score on the first drive,
Speaker 1: if they go a fourteen zip, I think that this
Speaker 1: is probably one that's gonna spiral out of control. But
Speaker 1: if Tennessee can run the ball early and often in
Speaker 1: this game and play keep away, then they have a
Speaker 1: good chance of covering. So you kind of just hit
Speaker 1: the nail on the head right Like, so I I
Speaker 1: see nine and a half points on the surface, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is too many. It's something simply too many.
Speaker 1: Tennessee could hang in there with Derrick Henry doing his things,
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, you could run on the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1: Problem is when you need Ryan Tannehill to be superhero
Speaker 1: because Lamar Jackson's crowd is gonna be roucous in Baltimore.
Speaker 1: Larr Jackson's gonna run down the field and seeming like
Speaker 1: he always does love the over on Lamar Jackson's rushing
Speaker 1: to correct. How can you He's going to run this
Speaker 1: team down the field and probably get in They stopped
Speaker 1: Tennessee on that first drive, and you get quickly get
Speaker 1: up fourteen nothing, then that pressure you're going to fall
Speaker 1: on Ryan Tannell and you can't just quickly play keep
Speaker 1: keep away as he want to mentioned like this, Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: you weren't afraid this year him beating you. He wasn't.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's good enough, but that team was not good enough.
Speaker 1: Offense wasn't good enough. That's what it comes to. The
Speaker 1: offense was not good enough. This is a different offense.
Speaker 1: It's different and best offense in the NFL. If they
Speaker 1: get behind, it makes me a little bit nervous, like
Speaker 1: Seattle getting behind. We'll get to that in a few moments,
Speaker 1: because if Seattle gets behind, this is something we were
Speaker 1: concerned about last year and this year. Can they come back?
Speaker 1: And I don't know that they can. And I don't
Speaker 1: know that Tennessee can. I don't know that they can
Speaker 1: make it a game. But seen nine and a half,
Speaker 1: which you're down two touchdowns late. Everyone's gonna relaxing here
Speaker 1: in that zone defense. The bat is gonna be so
Speaker 1: many points. It's too many points. I can't I can't
Speaker 1: lay that with Baltimore. I'm going to take Tennessee in
Speaker 1: this game plus nine and a half. And it's more
Speaker 1: so it's not that you can't lay it with Baltimore,
Speaker 1: it's you don't want to lay that against Tennis right now, Ben,
Speaker 1: But don't break defense They're not an amazing against any means,
Speaker 1: as we're gonna get to shortly. That's why I don't
Speaker 1: want to say, uh, it's you know, it's it's crazy
Speaker 1: to lay this many points this time of year because
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to the Kansas City game very shortly.
Speaker 1: But I think it's the way that the Tennessee Titans
Speaker 1: are playing right now. And yes, you don't want Ryan
Speaker 1: Tannehill to you don't want to have to rely on
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill, but he can make plays. We saw that
Speaker 1: down the stretch. He finished first in the NFL this
Speaker 1: year in passer rating first and yards per attempt. A. J.
Speaker 1: Brown I think bounces back to an extent this week.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's just gonna be limited to one
Speaker 1: catch in this game. I like the Titans with the
Speaker 1: points in this game plus nine and a half. I
Speaker 1: think you can use the Ravens as part of a
Speaker 1: teaser teasis down to minus two and a half. I
Speaker 1: like the over in this game as well. Back to
Speaker 1: the handy Dandy trends from Dame Marnzi, Ryan Tannehill nine
Speaker 1: and two to the over with Tennessee over. His last
Speaker 1: eleven games were probably like will hit the regular you
Speaker 1: want to stall us after that. I like a J.
Speaker 1: Brown over twenty four and a half yards as his
Speaker 1: longest reception. I think I think it's a good bet.
Speaker 1: He's a catch and run guy. I like that. One

Speaker 1: As soon as you came in talking about the promo,
Speaker 1: you came in at the spot in that song, I
Speaker 1: thought you were going with it. Right before the promo.
Speaker 1: La la la, la la la. You guys told me
Speaker 1: don't sing anymore. We actually have sang this song together.
Speaker 1: Harry Yok. He's he's singing very quietly to himself because
Speaker 1: he's not allowed to sing on the show it and
Speaker 1: trying to follow the rules. All right, anyway, Mr su
Speaker 1: send me. But I'm really you're seeing another song about
Speaker 1: Man in the Mirror. I stay want to review that.
Speaker 1: I wasn't singing it. I heard some crazy guy and
Speaker 1: Bread and Butter over here singing his own version in
Speaker 1: Man of the Mirror. Uh had that had to do
Speaker 1: with accusations regarding Michael Jackson in his lifetime. Let's just
Speaker 1: leave it there. He was crazy for sure. Yes, he
Speaker 1: was one of those guys. Just one look at the
Speaker 1: guy you just knew, like, stay away from that dude.
Speaker 1: He's just like picking away at the buffet to stay yeah,
Speaker 1: kind of the way you look at e Y right
Speaker 1: when he's like in the wrestling ring. To stay away
Speaker 1: from that guy. You do not want to be around
Speaker 1: that guy. All right, Eric, we talked a lot about
Speaker 1: what we think we've all you know the Titans or
Speaker 1: all on the Titans. You're obviously taking them out right,
Speaker 1: anything else you want to hit on this game before
Speaker 1: we move on your comments on what we had said
Speaker 1: when we opined, what do you think? No, I mean
Speaker 1: I think what you guys are saying, Like, look at
Speaker 1: I like the Baltimore Ravens. They were one of my
Speaker 1: favorite teams to watch this year. Lamar Jackson is changing
Speaker 1: the quarterback position, and I think changing it for the better. Um,
Speaker 1: people are going to look at running quarterbacks and quarterbacks
Speaker 1: that they're their primary their primary offensive weapon is to
Speaker 1: run the ball. They're gonna look at those quarterbacks very differently. UM.
Speaker 1: It was really cool how they scheme the offense around that. UM.
Speaker 1: This is is different than Michael Vick. This is different
Speaker 1: than any quarterback that has been a you know, considered
Speaker 1: a running quarterback before. It's really cool to be a
Speaker 1: fan and uh and to see that happen like we
Speaker 1: were part of history. Like the quarterback position going forward
Speaker 1: is going to change. In my opinion, it's because of
Speaker 1: because of Lamar Jackson. UM. He's terrifying, absolutely terrifying. Every
Speaker 1: time he touches the ball, it could go for fifty yards,
Speaker 1: he could go for a touchdown, and you know, it
Speaker 1: could be a run, it could be a pass. UM
Speaker 1: running is his primary weapon. But he can't throw the
Speaker 1: ball and he's proven that UM all year. They throw
Speaker 1: it when they need to. UM. But but I think
Speaker 1: that Tannehill is a better traditional quarterback. I believe the
Speaker 1: Titans are specifically designed UM, especially their their linebacking corps
Speaker 1: is very quick. UM. They'll be able to spy him
Speaker 1: and contain him. No one's gonna be able to stop
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. He's proven that all year and I think
Speaker 1: he'll prove it again this week. It'll just be limiting
Speaker 1: him and like I said, running the ball and limiting
Speaker 1: the amount of times that Lamar Jackson touches the ball. Well,
Speaker 1: you'll have to limit the amount of times Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: touches the ball. That's the only way that Tennessee is
Speaker 1: gonna be able to ultimately win this game, not to
Speaker 1: stay a win this game by limiting the amount of
Speaker 1: touches or that offensive ball to what do you think
Speaker 1: more can play this week? I do think that mark
Speaker 1: Ingram is gonna play. I wouldn't touch any of his props.
Speaker 1: Maybe if you want to go under them, but again,
Speaker 1: this is such a great rushing team even that is
Speaker 1: dicey to do. So I wouldn't use him in DFS either,
Speaker 1: because I don't think that he is one. They've been
Speaker 1: so hush hush about marketing room situation all week long. No,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that either. Like that. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's sneaky you're playing a GDP again for super cheap,
Speaker 1: But overall, I wouldn't mess around with the marketing room
Speaker 1: situation I mentioned. I do like Lamar Jackson's prop over
Speaker 1: seventy seven and a half rushing yards. He did that
Speaker 1: in eight of fifteen games this year. He did that
Speaker 1: in five of his final six games as well. And
Speaker 1: I think that if Baltimore is gonna win this game.
Speaker 1: It's gonna because Lamar Jackson had a lot to say
Speaker 1: about it. He had a lot to do with it,
Speaker 1: especially with mark Ingram being banged up. So Lamar over
Speaker 1: seventy seven and a half, Derrick Henry over ninety four
Speaker 1: and a half. I like Tennessee plus two points. I
Speaker 1: like the over forty seven points as well. Greg, And
Speaker 1: shout out to the Pick six podcast. I was sending
Speaker 1: to this on my way in today. Dean P's is
Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans. He was also
Speaker 1: the as a coordinator of the Ravens when they faced
Speaker 1: Greg Roman and the San Francisco Super Bowl forty Niners
Speaker 1: conference in the Super Bowl where he limited Colin Kaepernick
Speaker 1: and that you know, uh similar obviously not the same,
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is better. But their ability to run that
Speaker 1: readoption play with a Russian quarterback and they, you know,
Speaker 1: dominated in that game. So I think that that is
Speaker 1: another feather in the calf for the Tennessee Titans in
Speaker 1: this game. Yeah, absolutely, I I think it's a really
Speaker 1: great point. It's a really great nugget. It's a coaching nugget,
Speaker 1: you know how. I'm into those. I am uh, and
Speaker 1: we'll see a j. Brown though it's twenty four and
Speaker 1: a half yards for as long as cash I don't
Speaker 1: hate his over three and a half receptions as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: totally fair. Okay, should we move on? We're all good here,
Speaker 1: all right, let's do it. The early game on Sunday
Speaker 1: features the Kanda City Chiefs hosting Houston Texas. We talked
Speaker 1: about how it's a really big spread for the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Ravens over the Titans, and we both one nine and
Speaker 1: a half. Those games also nine and a half, and
Speaker 1: yet it's what doesn't feel as big, No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1: Not all nine and a halfs are created equal in
Speaker 1: the NFL. I think the Chiefs are going to demolish this.
Speaker 1: I think they win this game by fourteen to seventeen points.
Speaker 1: I like laying the points with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 1: They lost this game earlier in Arrowhead this season against
Speaker 1: the Houston Texas. They lost thirty one to twenty four.
Speaker 1: Last week watching that game, Yes, Deshaun Watson led this
Speaker 1: team back against a good Buffalo Bill's defense. They almost
Speaker 1: want in spite of Bill O'Brien. It's just what were
Speaker 1: they doing in the first half. The game plan seemed terrible,
Speaker 1: the offensive line was not good. Now you're going up
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs defense that is clicking at
Speaker 1: the right time. Steve Spagnolo has done a great job
Speaker 1: with his Chief's defense all year. Their secondary has been
Speaker 1: a strength all season long. For this Kansas City Chiefs defense,
Speaker 1: I think the only way that Houston's gonna hang around
Speaker 1: in this game is if they can run, and that's
Speaker 1: not really a strength of their team. Yes, DeShawn Watson
Speaker 1: can make plays himself rushing, but they don't want to
Speaker 1: rely on Carlos Hide, they don't want to rely on
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson all because of that. Again, I don't think
Speaker 1: I think Bill O'Brien is not a great coach. I
Speaker 1: think that again they want in spite of him. Understatement
Speaker 1: against the Buffalo Bills, I think you know and you
Speaker 1: read off the buy and you read again. Back to
Speaker 1: my nuggets here from Gabe four and one against the
Speaker 1: spread in the divisional round in his career. Uh. I
Speaker 1: think the Chiefs win this game. I think they win handily.
Speaker 1: With all that being said, Greg, I kind of like
Speaker 1: the under in this game. I think it's too many points.
Speaker 1: I think the fifty one is high. I think we
Speaker 1: get a thirty one seventeen that gets you around forty
Speaker 1: eight or fourteen type seventeen. Uh And I know a
Speaker 1: lot of you know sharp betters are on the under
Speaker 1: this week. I think that the Chiefs win this one handily,
Speaker 1: but I think it goes under the number as well.
Speaker 1: Give me the KNC City Chiefs. I like the Chiefs
Speaker 1: in the under two man the Chiefs. Stefens has played
Speaker 1: a whole lot better in the second half of the year.
Speaker 1: Steve Stagnol has his play team playing really really good
Speaker 1: football at the moment. And if he's down sixteen nothing
Speaker 1: at halftime away from Houston, I don't think they get
Speaker 1: back into it. And I don't think the Kansas. The
Speaker 1: Chiefs will not let up like the Buffalo Bills. They
Speaker 1: will just they will put the gas and they will
Speaker 1: just keep pounding. They will just keep chucking it deep
Speaker 1: to Tyreek Hill. I expect the big Tyree Hill game. Uh.
Speaker 1: Here for two touchdowns in the first meeting they had
Speaker 1: earlier this year went for five E D and two.
Speaker 1: I believe him and Kelsey had good games the first
Speaker 1: time they played this year. Um and I believe, Frank,
Speaker 1: and I could be wrong. That game that you mentioned
Speaker 1: against the Texans, the first tyre killing game, it was
Speaker 1: that his first game back from injury. I can look
Speaker 1: that up for you. I was just pulling up the
Speaker 1: game lock to see if Travis Kelsey had a big
Speaker 1: game as well. Uh so that game against the Houston
Speaker 1: Texans was his first game back, right, He went five
Speaker 1: for eight and two on tent. He popped two huge
Speaker 1: ones in that game. And I remember we took him
Speaker 1: in a pool and Kelsey only four for fifty eight
Speaker 1: in that game. It's alright, so that's not a Travis
Speaker 1: Kelsey game of terrible. It's not. It's not he adin't
Speaker 1: go nuts by any means. But Tyree Hill, it's that's hilarious.
Speaker 1: I just had a really big game out of seventy
Speaker 1: four and a half yards a lot. Though it's a
Speaker 1: bet on. I don't think I could do that, probably
Speaker 1: for Tyree Hill. I mean you could do that in
Speaker 1: two receptions. I understand that, but like also not the
Speaker 1: total reception and alf I like the over yards more
Speaker 1: than I do the over receptions. Tyree Hill is not
Speaker 1: a big recept Probably love what Damian Williams over eleven
Speaker 1: and a half rush attempts. I'll give you one better
Speaker 1: than that. I like that one a lot. To Damie
Speaker 1: Williams over twenty three and a half receiving yards linus
Speaker 1: one thirty. You gotta lace m. What's the Texans got
Speaker 1: beat by receiving running backs all season? Whatever? I do?
Speaker 1: You know what? I don't have it in front of me.
Speaker 1: What the total yard and Damilliams is here? I got
Speaker 1: it seven seventy nine and a half. I like that too.
Speaker 1: I like him. Like you're talking about value versus what
Speaker 1: they can do from a DFS perspective this weekend, I
Speaker 1: think Damian Williams offers the most value and total based
Speaker 1: on his question per dollar this weekend going up again.
Speaker 1: I told him didn't single Terry just did when we
Speaker 1: did the FanDuel Show yesterday. The Hurry Up Jamie wa
Speaker 1: is my favorite DFS play on the slate in total?
Speaker 1: What do you think of this Casey Houston, Gamie Way.
Speaker 1: I think that Kansas City UH is going to smash him.
Speaker 1: I mean, I believe that the Buffalo Bills got beat
Speaker 1: by themselves. Um, there are several times where they could
Speaker 1: have put the game away. Um, really erratic play from Alan.
Speaker 1: You know what, one down he could be dropping back
Speaker 1: and and and throw a pass or Ronnie like, oh,
Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be such a huge star in
Speaker 1: the NFL. And then the next down he drops back
Speaker 1: and literally throws it to the other team, or the
Speaker 1: crazy like throw when luckily went out of bound. But um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Houston is gonna get worked over by Kansas City.
Speaker 1: Kansas City offensively is absolutely terrifying. I would rather play
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson than Patrick Mahomes. So that's obviously the question.
Speaker 1: You want to face Lamar Jackson. Do you want to
Speaker 1: face Patrick Homes? Do you want to play Lamar Jackson?
Speaker 1: Do you want to play pack? Your Titans might have
Speaker 1: to face both of them. That's true. In the FS,
Speaker 1: you to choose one quarterback. This week's choosing Lamar, Patrick Mahomes,
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. I don't know that Patrick Mahomes will have
Speaker 1: to do as much. I think he can have a
Speaker 1: very good game to seventy five and two touchdowns. I
Speaker 1: think Damian Williams has a big game as well, But
Speaker 1: I think Lamar Jackson will be relied on to do
Speaker 1: more for his respective team. Especially from a rushing perspective.
Speaker 1: Speaking of rushing, one more prop for you, Greg, Deshaun
Speaker 1: Watson over thirty one and a half rushing yards. I
Speaker 1: love the over for most of the rushing quarterbacks. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to touch Holmes in this game, but I
Speaker 1: think the Texans playing from behind, DeShawn Watson again gonna
Speaker 1: have to make plays like he did last week where
Speaker 1: he rushed for fifty five yards. In that earlier meeting
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs, he ran ten times for
Speaker 1: forty two yards and two rushing touchdowns in that game.
Speaker 1: Give me the over thirty one and a half rushing
Speaker 1: for Deshaun Watson. Do you think we see will Fuller
Speaker 1: in this game? I think he will play. Uh in
Speaker 1: terms of how much will he be on the field,
Speaker 1: do you get a full compliment? I don't think anybody
Speaker 1: knows that I wouldn't touch him from a DF We
Speaker 1: talk a lot about it last week. This Houston team
Speaker 1: is a very very different team and will Faci they
Speaker 1: need him on the field. We'll see if that happens
Speaker 1: when we come back. We're in a preview the Seahawks
Speaker 1: and Green Baby closest game we expect we'll see we'll
Speaker 1: break it down. Next. NFL season is now upon us,

Speaker 1: back here on the BFFs, we got about fifteen minutes
Speaker 1: left to go with E Y Frank and I will
Speaker 1: take you to the top weed your talk. Those us
Speaker 1: year watching us live on the Sports Creed Network all
Speaker 1: the grid. What are you waiting for? One more game
Speaker 1: to get to you? And it's the Green Bay Packers
Speaker 1: and the Seattle Seahawks. This is the smallest spread on
Speaker 1: the on the card this weekend indivisional playoff play. It
Speaker 1: is four and a half. The Seahawks are dogs in
Speaker 1: green Bay. The total sits at forty six and a half.
Speaker 1: All of this according to the FanDuel Sports Book. Now
Speaker 1: this whole narrative rank, I get it. Nobody thinks green
Speaker 1: Bay is good. They think that. They don't think they
Speaker 1: watched these games. They get by the bed skin of
Speaker 1: their teeth. Seattle coming off a good victory over Philly,
Speaker 1: despite Philly being without their quarterback in Carson Wentz, Josh
Speaker 1: McCown playing, it was an okay victory. It was a victory.
Speaker 1: Josh McCown playing with a torn hamstring the entire game.
Speaker 1: I really want to see Greg Ward with the quarterback.
Speaker 1: It would have been amazing. Um. But Seattle goes to
Speaker 1: Green Bay, a place they have one before. They have
Speaker 1: beaten green Bay. In Green Bay, Russell Wilson has gotten
Speaker 1: the job done. I think it's a really good matchup
Speaker 1: for Seattle. I think it's a style that they can
Speaker 1: win against. But Brian Schottenheimer and we say this every week,
Speaker 1: has to put the ball in the hands of Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson to do it. We know how good the green
Speaker 1: that Hacker's defense can be. Russell Wilson needs the ball,
Speaker 1: not aending this stupid conservative crap. The Schottenheimer likes to
Speaker 1: play in order to be successful. Do you think that
Speaker 1: will happen? Well, let's go back to what they did
Speaker 1: last week. They threw the ball thirty times and Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson ends up going for three five yards ten point
Speaker 1: eight yards per attempt throws for a touchdown as well,
Speaker 1: So they let him throw the ball a little bit.
Speaker 1: In this game, the running backs combined for just seventeen
Speaker 1: carries versus thirty passing attempts for Russell Wilson. Nine rushing
Speaker 1: attempts for Russell Wilson, So they did give him a
Speaker 1: little bit more freedom than we have seen the past
Speaker 1: couple of years under Brian Schottenheimer. Here with Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1: The difference for me is the green Bay Packers have
Speaker 1: been really good at home this year, as you know this,
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks have been great on the road to I
Speaker 1: mean this, these are two immovable forces here, uh the
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks seven and one on the road straight up,
Speaker 1: green Bay Packers seven and one at home straight up
Speaker 1: this year. But I think green Bay their style in
Speaker 1: terms of their secondary, I think they have a solid secondary.
Speaker 1: They have a really good pass rush with the two
Speaker 1: Smiths there Zadarius Smith and Preston Smith getting after the quarterback,
Speaker 1: and that has been a problem for the Seahawks all
Speaker 1: season long. Their offensive line has been beat up. It's
Speaker 1: not great to begin with, and once again this year,
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson was one of the most pressure quarterbacks all
Speaker 1: season long. So I think green Bay will have some
Speaker 1: success in that regard. The way to beat green Bay
Speaker 1: is by running the football. Now, are Travis Homer and
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch going to be able to do that? You know?
Speaker 1: Are the green Bay Packer is going to be scared
Speaker 1: of Marshawn Lynch and Travis Hommer running all over them.
Speaker 1: I think that the answer is note to that. And
Speaker 1: I think that the way green Bay played uh down
Speaker 1: the stretch as well with Aaron Jones on the back
Speaker 1: of Aaron Jones and Aaron Rodgers has proved he could
Speaker 1: still make all the plays when he needs to. But
Speaker 1: this is a different green Bay Packers team. Greg This
Speaker 1: reminds me a lot of the New Orleans Saints. Over
Speaker 1: the past couple of years. As the Saints defense has
Speaker 1: gotten better, they have asked Drew Brees to do less
Speaker 1: and less. That is the same thing with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: Just because he is doing less doesn't mean that he
Speaker 1: can't still make the plays. He can make the plays.
Speaker 1: They're just not asking the duty. He's thirty five years old.
Speaker 1: Why would they. They have a great running back in
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, and the Seattle Seahawks defense is not very
Speaker 1: good there twenty six and run defense div a way.
Speaker 1: I think the Green Bay Packers win this game by
Speaker 1: six to ten points. I don't like it. The spread
Speaker 1: is in a no man's land. It's four and a
Speaker 1: half points in this game. But I do like Aaron
Speaker 1: Jones in this spot. I think Aaron Rodgers will make
Speaker 1: plays when he needs to. I think Devanta Adams can
Speaker 1: dominate the secondary of the Seattle Seahawks. Uh. And I
Speaker 1: think it's going to be just a little bit too
Speaker 1: much for Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks team. Give
Speaker 1: me the Green Bay Packers um laying the points and
Speaker 1: the most confident total that I am in. Total play
Speaker 1: that I'm in uh this entire weekend is the under
Speaker 1: in this game between the Packers and the Seattle Seahawks. Now,
Speaker 1: as I mentioned Eric, they everybody believes seemingly I'm gonna
Speaker 1: rebut you in a moment. But everybody seemingly thinks that
Speaker 1: Green May stinks and they wanted to say the same
Speaker 1: thing about Seattle too though all season long, that's been
Speaker 1: a storyline that Seattle is not good. Their defense is good,
Speaker 1: but they do just enough because Russell Wilson at the
Speaker 1: end of the games can win them games. He said
Speaker 1: it against a friend one of these you talked. You
Speaker 1: talked about how they're gonna rely on Aaron Jones and
Speaker 1: they just like New Orleans and Drew Brees, they hand
Speaker 1: the ball off more every doing it all season and
Speaker 1: for fantasy owners is very very clear it's Aaron the
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones show, not the Aaron Rodgers show. Unless they
Speaker 1: get into desperation. They maybe they make it desperate, and
Speaker 1: I don't think it's what they want to do. Get
Speaker 1: do it. In a second, Eric, what do you think
Speaker 1: about this game? I got a real sneaky feeling about Seattle. Um.
Speaker 1: I think when the chips are down, and like, I
Speaker 1: mean what you just said, it is both people have
Speaker 1: thought that neither of these teams are good. Um, But
Speaker 1: for the reality is is Russell Wilson is the guy
Speaker 1: this year that I believe in more than Aaron Jones.
Speaker 1: I think, uh, mechanically and skills wise, Aaron or Um,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is still one of, if not the best
Speaker 1: technical quarterback in the league. Huh, but when he's needed
Speaker 1: to do it, he really hasn't been able to do
Speaker 1: it this year. Russell Wilson is the guy that, like,
Speaker 1: when something happened needs to happen, he wills it to happen.
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf is terrifying, Tyler Lackett is having a very
Speaker 1: good year. Um, and I just want to see Marshawn Lynch.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that's crazy, but it's such a
Speaker 1: cool story. Uh. He's one of my favorite players of
Speaker 1: all time. And I just believe that neither team has
Speaker 1: been great, neither defense is great, and they're going to
Speaker 1: need to play one way or the other at the
Speaker 1: end of the game, and Russell Wilson is going to
Speaker 1: make it and Aaron Rodgers is not. I agree, very
Speaker 1: young in this regard that Aaron Rodgers all season long
Speaker 1: has not been able to make super underwhelming. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a really good word for it, underwhelming. He hasn't been
Speaker 1: able to make the biggest place right trust, without question,
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson in this spot more than a Rodger. And
Speaker 1: that's why when I pleaded the game, where I kind
Speaker 1: of got up to the preview rankie. If Ryan SHAWNA.
Speaker 1: Himer puts the ball in Russell Wilson's hands, he's going
Speaker 1: to make magic. And we didn't think necessarily that he'd
Speaker 1: be able to do that this year, or that he
Speaker 1: would do that more. Shawn Lynch and Travis Homer, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they might get you down there. I don't want the
Speaker 1: ball in Russell Wilson's hands. And I know how good
Speaker 1: that secondary has been for green Bay, and I know
Speaker 1: how open down Tyler Lockett DK Metcalf have been. But
Speaker 1: give me the team with the better quarterback, that is
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Give me the team that I think, in
Speaker 1: all honesty, they could be. Then they could have been
Speaker 1: a team with a bye bye. They could have been
Speaker 1: playing at home this week. It fell short on the
Speaker 1: goal line when all, when it was all said and done,
Speaker 1: I think Seattle is better than green Bay. So maybe
Speaker 1: I'm buying into that narrative the green Bay stinks. I
Speaker 1: think Seattle is a better football team, and I think
Speaker 1: they win this team out right, Were you impressed by
Speaker 1: what Seattle did last week against the Philadelphia Eagles. I
Speaker 1: don't think you can I get that right, like I
Speaker 1: don't think you can make going into a Green Bay.
Speaker 1: It's not easy to play in Philly either, but I
Speaker 1: think going into Green Bay is even harder, especially considering
Speaker 1: the weather persons as well. Russell Wilson has never won
Speaker 1: in his career in Lambeau. He's owing three in his
Speaker 1: career Lambeau. Russell Wilson has faced off against Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: seven times. Russell Wilson is four and oh at home,
Speaker 1: and he is oh and three in Lambeau. So give
Speaker 1: me the edge of the home team here. It's different
Speaker 1: playing in Lambeau. I I believe it's a field advantage men.
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, You're right, Russell Wilson's better than Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: at this point. There's no way I'm gonna dispute that.
Speaker 1: I think Aaron Jones is head and shoulders better than
Speaker 1: what they're going to get from the Seattle backfield in
Speaker 1: this game, especially if Ryan Schottenheimer tries to go back
Speaker 1: to running the football in this game, because based on
Speaker 1: the matchup, he actually should because the way to beat
Speaker 1: the Packers is on the ground. It has been all
Speaker 1: season long. They allow four point eight six yards per
Speaker 1: carry to opposing running backs. So if you want to
Speaker 1: look at some Marshall Lynch props in this game from
Speaker 1: Travis Homer props, I can't blame you for that. From
Speaker 1: a DFS perspective, they're obviously much cheaper than the other
Speaker 1: running backs on the slate. But Aaron Jones, his head
Speaker 1: and shoulders, I think the combination of Aaron Jones is
Speaker 1: that much better than Seattle Seahawks backfield. I don't think
Speaker 1: that disparity is as big between Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: I guess. I sure, I think that's fair. When the
Speaker 1: game is on the line, can Aaron Rodgers make the play?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Especially
Speaker 1: against Seattle, they have no pass for us whatsoever. Cowny
Speaker 1: another week. He Conny was there all year. They were
Speaker 1: amongst them. He was injured a lot of the second
Speaker 1: half of the year, but I mean he was there
Speaker 1: for the first half of the years. Well, even the
Speaker 1: first half of the year. The Seahawks were amongst the
Speaker 1: lowest in the league, and pressures per game, so they
Speaker 1: didn't get pressure all year long. And you're asking one
Speaker 1: for the Seahawks left tackle. That's yeah, But how healthy
Speaker 1: is he? He he just had knee surgery, like what
Speaker 1: a month ago. I don't think he's gonna be on again.
Speaker 1: And you're talking about the Packers, who have one of
Speaker 1: the best pass rushing duos in the league right now.
Speaker 1: I think it's close. I don't know. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna kill you for taking the Seahawks again
Speaker 1: because I was on the Seahawks last week. This is
Speaker 1: a week two week thing when it kind of NFL playoffs.
Speaker 1: I was on Russell Wilson last week, and you know,
Speaker 1: if Carson Wentz plays that game, we're likely looking at
Speaker 1: a different game because Josh McCown almost led this team back.
Speaker 1: He had that game to score a game time touchdown
Speaker 1: and go for the two point conversion to tie that game.
Speaker 1: So again, I wasn't impressed by what I saw the Seattle.
Speaker 1: They did enough, they won the game, they covered the spread,
Speaker 1: they did what they had to do. I think going
Speaker 1: into Lambeau, the weather is going to be super cold there.
Speaker 1: It's like twenty degrees in Green Bay, this weekend as well.
Speaker 1: This is obviously the closest game to figure out. It's
Speaker 1: the lowest spread of the weekend. I think Green Bay
Speaker 1: gets it done. I like them to lay the points.
Speaker 1: I like the under in this game as what. I
Speaker 1: haven't really dove into the props extensively in this game. Um,
Speaker 1: but I think looking at Aaron Jones against the Seattle
Speaker 1: Seahawks in this game, and imagine Aaron Jones Russia Temps
Speaker 1: Vandal doesn't have player pops up for this game. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at I'm on the popular tab right now,
Speaker 1: seven and a half. I love that attempts fourteen carries,
Speaker 1: especially if so when you're deciding what player props to do.
Speaker 1: This is what's always going through my mind because I
Speaker 1: actually like player props more than betting the sides and
Speaker 1: the totals in these games, just from I think a
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, fantasy background, we know more about specific we're
Speaker 1: really interesting. E y he's currently read tweeting videos Eddie Jordan,
Speaker 1: oh Man, we gotta get anyway involved in this game. Uh.
Speaker 1: When you're trying to figure out player props, to me,
Speaker 1: you have to figure out what the game flow is
Speaker 1: going to be. And I think for most of this game,
Speaker 1: Green Bay is playing from ahead, and because of that,
Speaker 1: I like Aaron Rodgers props in this game. I think
Speaker 1: for most of this game they were playing with like
Speaker 1: a seven to ten point lead. Maybe it gets closer
Speaker 1: later on in the game, but I like Green Baby
Speaker 1: playing with a positive game script here, and that will
Speaker 1: lean to more rushing attempts and rushing yard for Aaron Jones.
Speaker 1: So I agree with you on that regard, Greg, Yeah,
Speaker 1: so Aaron Jones certainly somebody with those uh those Russia
Speaker 1: tamis for sure. Like it's interesting for me how you
Speaker 1: described your player prop strategy right, because other people that
Speaker 1: bet the sides and the props kind of the opposite
Speaker 1: where it's like, all right, so unless they're hedging right
Speaker 1: in a way hedging exactly, Well, why don't you just
Speaker 1: try to hit everything right? Then you could lose everything.
Speaker 1: You should have confidence in, you know, handicapping games and
Speaker 1: and trying to I kind of have more confidence like
Speaker 1: knowing the players, like you, we know the players exactly,
Speaker 1: but I think you want to know the players and
Speaker 1: also have that play into how you think the game
Speaker 1: is going to ultimately play out with the game. Plow
Speaker 1: is going to be so um, you know you're not
Speaker 1: gonna bet a ton of passing attempts or passing yards
Speaker 1: from a quarterback if you think they're playing with the lead.
Speaker 1: It just doesn't get it. So correlate your props with
Speaker 1: how you think the game's gonna So the reason I'm
Speaker 1: making these picks, Frankie, it's because I felt like the
Speaker 1: NFC in the a f C, we were bound for
Speaker 1: two matchups in the a f C Casey in Baltimore
Speaker 1: on this collision course. If it doesn't work out like that,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Eric, it doesn't work out like that like
Speaker 1: that kind of sucks. Those two teams should be playing
Speaker 1: each other. In my opinion in the NFC, I want
Speaker 1: to see Seattle as a Francisco one more time, Like
Speaker 1: that's the matchup. I want to say that would be awesome,
Speaker 1: but I think most people had the Saints in their
Speaker 1: Super Bowls, so it doesn't matter. Now it's not possible ideal.
Speaker 1: What do people want for? Like before the playoffs started,
Speaker 1: what did people want as the NFC playoff matchup? And
Speaker 1: do you think that's what they wanted? Was the Seahawks
Speaker 1: and the that's what they wanted, because that was an
Speaker 1: awesome game too in the dome. He doesn't game when
Speaker 1: you feel at the end. Um So I think now
Speaker 1: I want the storyline. I want the rubber match Seattle
Speaker 1: and San Francisco. Well, you can't bet on what you want, Greg,
Speaker 1: you got a bet on what number tad. I certainly
Speaker 1: can bet on what I want. That's literally what betting is.
Speaker 1: Probably not going to be what you want. Of course
Speaker 1: you do. You bet on what the numbers tell you
Speaker 1: to bet on. You can. You can make the numbers
Speaker 1: whatever you want. You can see I could give you
Speaker 1: a try. It's for days and we can kind of
Speaker 1: spin them with you know what you want to follow me?
Speaker 1: This is what I think of your tries. Let me
Speaker 1: see this all right? No, no, no, come on, you
Speaker 1: can't rip this up, Craig, don't rip up my trends.
Speaker 1: Don't rip up my trends. This is really trend You
Speaker 1: didn't have to come to my side to read it. Well,
Speaker 1: that's what I think. We don't want to get e
Speaker 1: Y back involved. That was Greg Susman's heel turn. There
Speaker 1: you go long live? Can I believe it was a
Speaker 1: face turn? There? You go Derrick Henery, Tennessee Titans. Ey,
Speaker 1: good luck this week, buddy. We'll talk to you next week.

Speaker 1: just spread sides. Would you use your eleven this week?
Speaker 1: Is there anything you feel bad strongly about? He wants to,
Speaker 1: He wants, he wants to say the case Casey put
Speaker 1: the eleven on case? My two favors of case I
Speaker 1: feel most confident matters or Casey is fan Francisco. Would
Speaker 1: you used the eleven now? Probably not? Maybe used nine
Speaker 1: in tent on it. I probably used nine tent on it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would do that agree. He also had this to say,
Speaker 1: speaking of it's a big jeopardy week? What are the
Speaker 1: other two? You're human number? Oh? There you go? Would
Speaker 1: you would you go seven on? What? Would you go seven? On? Tennessee?
Speaker 1: Now I go five? So we have won three, seven
Speaker 1: and eleven left for green Bay. He is a Packers fan.
