Speaker 1: NFL Game Debut is a production of the NFL in
Speaker 1: partnership with I Heart Radio. I do a sound a
Speaker 1: bit different. So I've been in London for a week,
Speaker 1: so I've basically countly a local. I can't wait super
Speaker 1: Bike Kings. I'm gonna do the Little Chance? Will you
Speaker 1: show me how to do it at high school school? Okay?
Speaker 1: So Greg and I won't be there this week to
Speaker 1: talk about the Bills and the Ravens game. Apparently the
Speaker 1: Bills lost on some wait what's happening over there in America?
Speaker 1: Takes fires a short one trying to head down, about
Speaker 1: to get off in spike immediately live seconds, four seconds,
Speaker 1: three seconds are running out of time. That's it, buggy.
Speaker 1: The Bills suffer their first loss in two or the
Speaker 1: Chiefs bucks came. I am so excited to watch this
Speaker 1: one Sunday night football. Baby. Oh right, London is five
Speaker 1: hours ahead. That came starts when they give it off
Speaker 1: right side Edward Hilaire waits, hesitates, gets into the end
Speaker 1: zone left shoulder, first touchdown, cansa Shitay, all right, it's so,
Speaker 1: I guess I'll just watch Viking Saints live here with
Speaker 1: all my few friends and talking to pop over to
Speaker 1: the hotel and watch some American football. That's what they
Speaker 1: call it over here, and I guess just go to
Speaker 1: sleep until week five. Greg, you got anything? Just kidding?
Speaker 1: This is my open I'd never let you talk. Game
Speaker 1: Debut presented by Mercedes Benz, starts now. Thank you, right, everybody,
Speaker 1: Welcome to Game Debut Today. We start with just the
Speaker 1: game day to Patrick Clavon Cythia Freelan. Here. Those two
Speaker 1: Greg and Rachel are representing Cynthia, not just the league,
Speaker 1: but North America as well. Good for them. They didn't
Speaker 1: you know that we really picked the right to because
Speaker 1: you don't want you don't want this trouble. You don't
Speaker 1: you don't want this over We appreciate you got spend
Speaker 1: in time with us here on NFL Network and on
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com. There's plenty of ways to get your
Speaker 1: football fixed. Joining us now here on Game Debut. It's
Speaker 1: Sara Killium and Sarah Tiana and we're so glad to
Speaker 1: have you guys with us. We're Studio Twinsies, Yeah, letting
Speaker 1: us use the space for our brand new show only
Speaker 1: on Prime. We're having a lot of fun. We're having
Speaker 1: a lot of fun on the show. Obviously, that's all
Speaker 1: we're doing is having fun, good, exclusively fun. That's your job.
Speaker 1: You are the fun people trying. I'm just saying that.
Speaker 1: It's like the vibe of watching football with your friends
Speaker 1: and making jokes and and and and roasting the players.
Speaker 1: But your friends are professional comedians paid to be there.
Speaker 1: That's great for me because I'm not funny at all.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get Cynthias jokes. We're gonna get picks as well,
Speaker 1: but we start picks by looking back at last week.
Speaker 1: And for a couple of us who no longer in
Speaker 1: America right now, Greg and Rachel are actually being punished
Speaker 1: by by being sent to the UK because their picks
Speaker 1: were so bad. That's why they're not with us. But
Speaker 1: Cynthia and I had decent weeks. You had a great week. Well,
Speaker 1: I just you know, the model runs millions of No
Speaker 1: it's luck guys, don't don't pay attention to me or
Speaker 1: pay attention to me, which ever going to actually probably
Speaker 1: should pay attention to you. That's a great week. Well,
Speaker 1: thank you a good week. Good Who have you picked
Speaker 1: the right people? Yeah? Sometimes the universe sends vibes and
Speaker 1: I want to know who the four are. That's easier
Speaker 1: to get to. You should have s been the week before. Okay,
Speaker 1: it didn't go well, everything kind of evens out. So
Speaker 1: let's look here at the rematch of Super Bowl fifty
Speaker 1: over in London. Rachel and Greg have selected the chiefs. Cynthia,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about this matchup with Super Bowl quarterbacks?
Speaker 1: So you know how we always talk about we need
Speaker 1: to wait till the final injury report comes out, Well,
Speaker 1: we absolutely need to wait till the final injury report
Speaker 1: comes out. In this one, I have a very very
Speaker 1: tight game forecast here, just a one point win for
Speaker 1: the Bucks. Now, Chris Godwin appeared on the injury report today,
Speaker 1: so that could be a problem. But you know who
Speaker 1: isn't on the injury report. It's Leonard four Net And
Speaker 1: that's going to be a big help because Tom Brady
Speaker 1: has some interesting early season splits. He needs that slock eye.
Speaker 1: He needs the guys in the interior in between the
Speaker 1: hashes making sure that those kind of linebackers are taking
Speaker 1: care if he doesn't have Gronk this season. Obviously the
Speaker 1: receiving gore has been a problem. But Leonard four Nett
Speaker 1: will help out in this one, and I think the
Speaker 1: opportunity to run on the Chiefs will be there, So
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett safety valve there this week. It just has
Speaker 1: to be. I see that playing. I also have a
Speaker 1: rock fight in this one. But I'm taking the Chiefs
Speaker 1: seen in this one, and we have a prime number. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know, Cynthia, I don't. I don't even know
Speaker 1: what prime number, prime video number there it is. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the at the backs of the tight
Speaker 1: ends of the h and also Travis Kelsey. I see
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey having a bounce back in this one. If
Speaker 1: the Chiefs do score, I think it's going to be
Speaker 1: these guys. It's gonna be a close game, low scoring
Speaker 1: game because the Buccaneers defense hasn't allowed more than twenty
Speaker 1: seven points all season. I don't see that happening in
Speaker 1: this game either. But Chiefs because their offense is healthier
Speaker 1: right now. The Buccaneers having a little bit of struggle fest,
Speaker 1: and I think, Sarah, you have a theory with regards
Speaker 1: to quarterbacks struggling. I just feel like this game is
Speaker 1: going to be a dud because, honestly, I feel like
Speaker 1: quarterbacks go through a real depletion period when they're having
Speaker 1: babies and Patrick Mahomes is having babies, Dy went through babies,
Speaker 1: and Brady's having grandchildren. I think. But I have a baby,
Speaker 1: his little brother. I'll be quiet for the rest of
Speaker 1: the show. Yeah, this is my friend. Yeah, yeah, it's yes.
Speaker 1: So I just feel like it's going to be everyone's
Speaker 1: expecting it to be so fun. What you're saying is
Speaker 1: like for net and like they're going to be relying
Speaker 1: on handing off to all these great players instead of
Speaker 1: slinging the rock themselves. My homes, I mean, last game
Speaker 1: obviously not included. My homes looks very good. This year.
Speaker 1: My homes has stepped up. What about this playing, I
Speaker 1: don't care. I just like a high fade. The ultimate takeaway.
Speaker 1: If you're expecting as a quarterback, expect things to not
Speaker 1: just your personal life, the ability to fall apart. I
Speaker 1: think Brady's limited preseason is still affecting the team in general.
Speaker 1: Don't take vacations. Sorry, go tearing down on vacations right now.
Speaker 1: We'll leave this game looking forward to this rematching. It's
Speaker 1: a little this guy or that guy, Cynthia, because it's
Speaker 1: a couple of guys that no stranger to throw in touchdowns.
Speaker 1: They both had fifty touchdown seasons. But let's put a
Speaker 1: huge number out there. Four touchdowns in this game together.
Speaker 1: No one quarterback in this game either, Bradier Mahomes four touchdowns,
Speaker 1: which one more likely? Neither neither are going to throw touchdowns? Look,
Speaker 1: four touchdowns a ridiculous number. Maybe four together. I can
Speaker 1: go for that. Patrick Mahomes is a bit more likely
Speaker 1: to throw the touchdowns because if you look at what
Speaker 1: Todd Bowles does best, he really does a good job
Speaker 1: of limiting posing runners. But let's be honest. Four touchdowns,
Speaker 1: that's too many, too many, too many for one together.
Speaker 1: They have four together. If it's just one with Smith Schuster,
Speaker 1: I'll be happy because I got I thinks he's been
Speaker 1: getting better and better each week. That's a great pick.
Speaker 1: That's only one three more. Yeah, I'll take four, trust me,
Speaker 1: I'll take four. I think Mahomes is gonna have a
Speaker 1: strong game. I think because of the rematch of the
Speaker 1: super Bowl. And listen, I'm a Rams fan and you
Speaker 1: had your Jared Goff Tom Brady super Bowl that did
Speaker 1: not go very well for us. It was a pretty
Speaker 1: boring game. But that spite from that Super Bowl specifically
Speaker 1: drove the Rams to become world champions if he hadn't
Speaker 1: heard world champs two technically. So I think that the
Speaker 1: spite of Mahome's trying to prove all these quarterbacks respect,
Speaker 1: Brady right, you got to and I think like the
Speaker 1: hunger for getting his respect. I think my home's gonna shine.
Speaker 1: Tarn's going revenge, all revenge. It plays a role. And
Speaker 1: you know Taren isn't just making this up about being
Speaker 1: a Rams fan. We have photographic evidence. I did a
Speaker 1: Twitter poll should I paint my face for the Super Bowl?
Speaker 1: It was a yes. I think I made it from
Speaker 1: about noon that day till about one thirty of pregaming, drinking, sweating, partying, dancing,
Speaker 1: and it very quickly became like ziggy star dust like
Speaker 1: lamb Rock just melted off my face. But yeah, that
Speaker 1: was that was me going all in for the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: the most recent one, which was the happiest day of
Speaker 1: my life. And I have two children. Yeah, you can't
Speaker 1: have too many children because they you can't throw the
Speaker 1: football anymore just starting. So you had to beat the
Speaker 1: four being honest to get to that game. So what
Speaker 1: do you see coming up? In this one, I am nervous.
Speaker 1: I am nervous, of course because in the way that
Speaker 1: it's been proven that the Rams have the Cardinals number.
Speaker 1: Sam France certainly in the regular season, has had the
Speaker 1: Rams number. I think the absence of Trent Williams will
Speaker 1: make all the difference I do. I just think Gains
Speaker 1: Floyd Donald that trifecta is so healthy and dominant right now,
Speaker 1: and now you got b Wags behind them. I just
Speaker 1: without Trent Williams there to protect Jimpy G who's backs
Speaker 1: still you know what I mean, it's still kind of
Speaker 1: on not on firm brown. I feel very, very confident
Speaker 1: the Rams will win by more than ten points. Speaking
Speaker 1: of the number here forty favored about one and a
Speaker 1: half over there in the UK, the National Football League
Speaker 1: of Nations in Rachel and Greg both taking the forty niners,
Speaker 1: I am actually going to disagree with them. I've got
Speaker 1: the Ramley in this one because I'm with M twenty
Speaker 1: to nineteen, not by a ton, but again the absence
Speaker 1: of Trent Williams, but mainly the way Jimmy G is
Speaker 1: playing right now, and I think we've forgotten that Jimmy
Speaker 1: G is coming off of shoulder surgery. Yes, it feels
Speaker 1: like it's like, oh, well, Trey goes down, we'll just
Speaker 1: put Jimmy G. This isn't standard issue Jimmy G. I
Speaker 1: think this is a Jimmy G that's recovering, and I
Speaker 1: think we saw that against the Broncos. Cynthia, what do
Speaker 1: you see here? You know what, we've been working together
Speaker 1: too long because I have almost exactly the same scores
Speaker 1: rams upsetting the forty. You talked about it. Trent Williams
Speaker 1: not being there is gigantic, not just literally because he's
Speaker 1: a large but also in every way possible. Remember this
Speaker 1: is a team that relies on a lot of outside
Speaker 1: zone rushing. You know what, you need that really good
Speaker 1: tackle to make sure that you set the edge there
Speaker 1: and if you want to pass. Remember Jimmy Di didn't
Speaker 1: start the season playing with the number one, so he
Speaker 1: has to establish that chemistry and get it going here
Speaker 1: and really is hard. There are dramatic on and off
Speaker 1: field splits between when Williams is there and when he's not.
Speaker 1: It's not great when you're really trying to reincorporate a
Speaker 1: quarterback that has not necessarily been practicing with all the
Speaker 1: number one. I don't know if anybody heard about this,
Speaker 1: but Jimmy G stepped out of the end zone last game. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but MMYG is still Jimmy G. Like he's still good.
Speaker 1: He's so underrated, and I love a player that bets
Speaker 1: on himself. With Jimmy G bet on himself, Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: has been on himself there. I agree. I'll like Jimmy
Speaker 1: G again when he lands with whatever team he signs
Speaker 1: with next year for a whole lot of money. But
Speaker 1: also Rachel and Greg can stay in London because they
Speaker 1: picked the Niners. I love Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen. Who
Speaker 1: can deny the immense talent of both of these men?
Speaker 1: No one on this show. The Bills favored by three.
Speaker 1: Game debut Diplomats the game debut in if you will,
Speaker 1: Rachel and Greg both have the Bills winning by five. Cynthia,
Speaker 1: what do you see in this one? Well? I have
Speaker 1: the Bills winning by three right now. But if I
Speaker 1: had to say if it was going to be more
Speaker 1: than three or lesson three, I think it would be
Speaker 1: more than three. So when I look at what is
Speaker 1: going on between all of the injuries on both sides
Speaker 1: of this game, I think it's going to be pretty
Speaker 1: decently high scoring twenty seven to twenty four. But I
Speaker 1: really want to focus on Stefon Diggs because I think
Speaker 1: that that's exactly who Josh Allen will be focusing on.
Speaker 1: If you look at the hitch route specifically, nobody has
Speaker 1: been better than Stefon Diggs since becoming a Bill at
Speaker 1: that hit routes so proficient, and when you have injuries
Speaker 1: like we haven't even seen Marcus Peters, like both secondaries
Speaker 1: are quite decimated, I think I have a lot more
Speaker 1: faith in this established connection between these two in this
Speaker 1: situation with other pieces missing to that Ravens defense. So
Speaker 1: I just think it's gonna be a huge Diggs game.
Speaker 1: I can see it being a huge Diggs game, especially
Speaker 1: considered even when Marcus Peters was back his first game
Speaker 1: off that torna is not He's not right. He had
Speaker 1: the cover of Tyreek killed. That didn't work out, but
Speaker 1: doesn't work out for many people coming to Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's not always easy. And I say the butt because,
Speaker 1: as Cynthia mentioned, both of these teams are dealing with injuries.
Speaker 1: One team probably more experienced in dealing with those injuries.
Speaker 1: That's why I have the Ravens winning by a late touchdown.
Speaker 1: Just I'm doing it again. I'm picking against the Bills,
Speaker 1: which has not worked out for me this season, but
Speaker 1: I see j K. Dobbins coming back, getting a second
Speaker 1: opportunity to play a second week in a row, changing
Speaker 1: something for this offense. They've struggled. They went and got
Speaker 1: two thousand, fourteens best running backs and kind of a
Speaker 1: push to just find somebody viable. A season ago, he
Speaker 1: had those six yards to carry enough. Just been eating.
Speaker 1: I've been waiting. I think we're gonna get more j K. Dobbins,
Speaker 1: and we're finally going to get this Ravens run game
Speaker 1: to go with Lamar playing even past his m v
Speaker 1: P level so good right now, and I think the
Speaker 1: rest of the offense is finally going to live up
Speaker 1: to it. So you're looking at you don't believe me. No,
Speaker 1: I'm just sure that Stefan dig is going to have
Speaker 1: a huge game because I'm playing against him in fantasy.
Speaker 1: I have a good game, And I feel like we
Speaker 1: always talk about like injuries on all the teams that
Speaker 1: I don't think what we talk about enough are the
Speaker 1: injuries the Bills fans are sustaining before the game after
Speaker 1: the game, you know what I mean, And like they're
Speaker 1: constantly falling through tables and throwing each other off of things,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, your team's probably going to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Don't you want to be alive to see it? Like
Speaker 1: what is happening? I think they would counter with They're
Speaker 1: not alive unless they go through the table. I have
Speaker 1: to believe the Bills will win because the Bills are
Speaker 1: the Rams only lost so far, so if they win,
Speaker 1: then it just was like, well, yeah, they lost to
Speaker 1: like the most strong team ever. We're talking about Jimmy
Speaker 1: g believing in himself, Like who more than Lamar? This
Speaker 1: like extraordinary, like extraordinary. I think like in the running
Speaker 1: from VP, I'm rooting for him. I just can't root
Speaker 1: for any of the rest of the team really, Like
Speaker 1: I just think Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs on the other side,
Speaker 1: he got von Miller, He's still got some of that
Speaker 1: Rams super Bowl juice. Do you see a trend that
Speaker 1: I'm going to see in the Rams in literally every
Speaker 1: segment in the show, You can't because it'll help right
Speaker 1: in the power it's not college football, it doesn't actually
Speaker 1: help manifest speaking into existence. I think I think it
Speaker 1: works there because one time, when you lose, right you
Speaker 1: go against an opponent that beat you, the revenge factor
Speaker 1: that kicks in. And who is better poised for a
Speaker 1: shot at revenge this week than one Doug Peterson returning
Speaker 1: to Philly for the first time as opposing head coach
Speaker 1: since it's out Stir from the Burns remember that last
Speaker 1: game and featured him benching Jalen Hurts for Nate Sudfeld.
Speaker 1: Maybe dub will revenge here. Let's get to the Drive
Speaker 1: to Excellence presented by Mercedes Bins and Um Sarah. I'll
Speaker 1: let you go first here. Really see this matchup. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just very excited for the Jaguars because I feel
Speaker 1: like they're having their She's all that moment, you know,
Speaker 1: where they're just like everybody thought they were ugly for
Speaker 1: so long and now they're like, oh all of this.
Speaker 1: I took my glasses off. I'm hot now everybody, Oh
Speaker 1: my god, what happened to you? You go to PRAM
Speaker 1: with me? So I'm very excited for the Jaguars. I
Speaker 1: hope they kick the crap out of the Eagles, just
Speaker 1: because I want to see how Eagles fans react to
Speaker 1: all loss like I'm very I just feel like the
Speaker 1: world is much more fun when Eagles fans are upset,
Speaker 1: like right now, they've been so happy, so like no
Speaker 1: one's booing Santa Claus. I love that she's all that
Speaker 1: comparison because Trevor Trevor Lawrence literally could do the hair
Speaker 1: in SloMo. I am begrudgingly happy for the Eagles doing well.
Speaker 1: I have three brothers who are Eagle fans, one by
Speaker 1: blood too by marriage, all obsesses. So they're having a great,
Speaker 1: great year, and I'm gonna say they're gonna win for
Speaker 1: that reason, I think right looking at well first, but
Speaker 1: let me forget Rachel and Gregg. It seems here they'll
Speaker 1: let you forget that. They're not that generous because Eagles
Speaker 1: are getting six and a half. They like the Eagles
Speaker 1: to win, but they have the Jags covering, and I
Speaker 1: actually agree with them. I love the talent of the
Speaker 1: Jags pulling them through their tight matchups. It's fun said
Speaker 1: for them to be legitimate, to have the hair flowing.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my gosh, you can put clothes on.
Speaker 1: I like the Philly run game here, and the Jags
Speaker 1: are first and run defense, but those come with games
Speaker 1: against the Chargers and the Commanders in there. I've got
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders having a solid game here. That's why I'm
Speaker 1: taking the Eagles in a close one. I guess this
Speaker 1: is where I show how little fun I am because
Speaker 1: I'm taking the Eagles, but big I'm going with one.
Speaker 1: That's what the model pops up. Why because when you
Speaker 1: look at this Eagle's pass rush, it's incredible, and you
Speaker 1: look at what happens to Trevor Lawrence. He may have
Speaker 1: the great hair, he may have the good great hair tossed,
Speaker 1: but the difference between when he's under pressure and when
Speaker 1: he's not is currently the most dramatic in the league.
Speaker 1: So if they're able to brush the passer just as
Speaker 1: well as we've seen them do, it's going to be
Speaker 1: a problem. And it's nothing against Trevor Lawrence. Let's just
Speaker 1: give it another year. You know, it's not necessarily this year.
Speaker 1: I think it's maybe this is our mem alert here,
Speaker 1: but you know it's I think it's I think it's
Speaker 1: as a Georgia Bulldog, I will say that Jordan Davis
Speaker 1: is now on the Greats defense and the Kobe Dean
Speaker 1: and so you think there are you dying with Eagles
Speaker 1: defense being good? That that mean alert for the folks
Speaker 1: in Duval County. They're really going to have some fun
Speaker 1: and they should. We're just going to pick the games.
Speaker 1: We're not making some commentary on the franchise. Let's get
Speaker 1: another dis guy, that guy Cynthia. Two passing touchdowns not
Speaker 1: four this time? Okay, it doesn't have to be Can
Speaker 1: it be too, or can be two or more? We
Speaker 1: can include too, then we can go to Jalen or
Speaker 1: Trevor jen if it includes too, but like three might
Speaker 1: be to I think he might get one on the ground,
Speaker 1: so I think he might account for three touchdowns. But
Speaker 1: I think at Lee, you know, if you're gonna give
Speaker 1: me two passages, let's just go with Jalen Hursts. What
Speaker 1: I look to see Devonte Smith and a J. Brown together,
Speaker 1: Like that's a problem for any team, especially where are
Speaker 1: the Jags deficiencies. I still am a little concerned about
Speaker 1: their secondary It's not I'm not taking anything away from them.
Speaker 1: They've had a really great start and they have the
Speaker 1: like the best analytics person, one of the best analytics people.
Speaker 1: So you know what, we'll go with that the math
Speaker 1: guy isn't covering a j brow unless he's done a
Speaker 1: great job of coming up with great game plans to
Speaker 1: try to stop them. But I mean, you know, there's
Speaker 1: only so much planning that one could do. Some shout
Speaker 1: outs to the folks in du Valcanti looking forward to
Speaker 1: that game. We've got more coming up here on game debut.
Speaker 1: How does one prepare for an international game? What kinds
Speaker 1: of debauchery does one summon? Well, Rachel and a special
Speaker 1: are consuming beverages next on game debut. So the Vikings
Speaker 1: favored by two and a half. Ra was taken the Vikings.
Speaker 1: Greg's going Saints to twenty. I would join the esteemed
Speaker 1: ambassador Rosenthal on this one, but the Saints are just
Speaker 1: too hurt for me. I'm not going to take a
Speaker 1: team flying to London playing hurt. Jamis is doubtful, can't
Speaker 1: guard Mike not practicing. I think he's been ruled out
Speaker 1: and they've been in London for a while. And while
Speaker 1: they're my Super Bowl pick, I'm taken by the Vikings
Speaker 1: by a field goal twenty three to twenty one. Minnesota
Speaker 1: and this one coming off that comeback win against the
Speaker 1: Lions against Cynthia Freelance Lions. I didn't pick them. I
Speaker 1: didn't pick him last week. Okay, not happened picking the
Speaker 1: Vikings to nineteen. You talked about those injuries, and that
Speaker 1: really solidified the score for me. It was closer when
Speaker 1: we thought maybe there was a chance that can't guard
Speaker 1: Mike would be there, and he's not, and Alvin Camari
Speaker 1: is also banged up. So I do want to point
Speaker 1: out a good sleeper for fantasy purposes here, and that's
Speaker 1: Irv Smith. I think that the tight end we'll see
Speaker 1: a lot of opportunity here because as much as I'd
Speaker 1: like to say that it's going to be this huge
Speaker 1: justin Jefferson, Marshawn Ottimore is not going to let that happen.
Speaker 1: I think they're going to see a lot of coverage
Speaker 1: on him. And while Jefferson may have a touchdown, I
Speaker 1: just think that this is going to be an opportunity
Speaker 1: to take the tight end maybe get those extra points.
Speaker 1: In fantasy, you can never figure out tight end. So
Speaker 1: this is one where Smith seems to be like just
Speaker 1: right on the like the edge of being really great
Speaker 1: for your fantasy team. So maybe this week, this is
Speaker 1: the week, al Right, First of all, I can never
Speaker 1: pick the Saints to winever. But now that Andy Dalton
Speaker 1: is going to be there with his first team, all
Speaker 1: hair like, he always looks like he had a rump
Speaker 1: under the covers with like just lovely people. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: the most handsome, brave heart character I've ever seen. I
Speaker 1: also think you can't count out Taysom Hill. Sorry, guys,
Speaker 1: you sound like their offensive coordinator. I am, you'd be better.
Speaker 1: That's why they're struggling. Who pulls the pulls the face
Speaker 1: off if it wasn't. Can't wait to see what happens
Speaker 1: in that game. We're gonna have more from Rachel coming
Speaker 1: up in just a bit. But now it's time for
Speaker 1: us to make a bunch of people mad at us.
Speaker 1: Maybe some of you, as we look at all of
Speaker 1: our sweeps are mean alerts. Were all in on the
Speaker 1: Steelers as well as the Packers, the Philadelphia Eagles, and Sarah,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry we're all taking the Browns over the Falcons.
Speaker 1: We have a chance to do here. How does this
Speaker 1: make you feel? It makes me feel very normal. For
Speaker 1: like the last three years, like no one's talking about
Speaker 1: us rightfully, So like I feel like when people are like,
Speaker 1: I don't believe we landed on the moon, and I
Speaker 1: feel like, oh, I'm gonna make fun of you. But
Speaker 1: then I'm like, why am I making fun of you?
Speaker 1: I believed in the Falcons for years and I'm sorry
Speaker 1: for it. And you have the reasonably priced beers to
Speaker 1: go with it too. Yeah, yes, price beers any any
Speaker 1: any stadium in the country. This is true. That's right.
Speaker 1: You might not see a good game, but you'll get
Speaker 1: cheap alcohol. Well, that's the thing. They have been. Good
Speaker 1: games have been in games. We'll see if they're they're
Speaker 1: winners here and now that the fact that we've made
Speaker 1: them amim alert, perhaps it's almost guaranteed better. If Cordero
Speaker 1: we're playing. Yeah, we don't really know. He showed up
Speaker 1: on the injury for he's like my favorite Falcon. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I would be happier if you're strong. You know
Speaker 1: that's saying right, Oh so sorry he's on the injury port.
Speaker 1: Yeah is he? Oh about it? Didn't practice all week,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna practice respecting the Falcons, Sarah, thank you.
Speaker 1: Guys were like the Falcons, but you picked the Browns
Speaker 1: because you know they have such karma. Right now, the
Speaker 1: NFL Pilot. Make sure I'm doing this right Wednesday, Prime
Speaker 1: video the Pilot. That's us us. Thank you so much
Speaker 1: for hanging than hang with you. This is awesome. You
Speaker 1: guys are literally anytime. Let's do the math. We can't
Speaker 1: just ask Syria all the time. These are passing leaders
Speaker 1: going into week four. Their projections versus Cynthia Freelance projections
Speaker 1: a bit higher than FanDuel on every one of them,
Speaker 1: every single one, all yards all the time. You talked
Speaker 1: about your expectations for Hurts getting in the ends, out
Speaker 1: through the air and on the ground, but you think
Speaker 1: it's a big day for him through the air as well.
Speaker 1: I do. I think this is a more competitive game.
Speaker 1: I do think it's a big win for the Eagles,
Speaker 1: but it's not like this lop side of game where
Speaker 1: there's only runs in the second half. So I think
Speaker 1: Jalen is going to keep airing it out. He has
Speaker 1: great options in the passing game, and I kind of think,
Speaker 1: you know, you talk about Doug Peterson revenge. I think
Speaker 1: there's some people there like Jalen Hurts himself. They'll be like,
Speaker 1: you know, remember when he benched me. Let's just not
Speaker 1: do this anymore. Let's just pass and tour some toshdowns.
Speaker 1: Yet I will prove it to you by the way
Speaker 1: I said to tell you this. You know why your
Speaker 1: phone doesn't react when she says that they do this
Speaker 1: special thing where they program it so that particular one
Speaker 1: doesn't trigger your phone just so everyone else you know,
Speaker 1: hashtag I didn't. Let's think about that. But Cynthia is
Speaker 1: on the next Lenny things here on game Day you today,
Speaker 1: which which is why, which is why Cynthia do the productions?
Speaker 1: That was a look at some math. It's time to
Speaker 1: do some over unders. These are the highest over unders
Speaker 1: score fest that we expect. Ball to Browns Falcons. I
Speaker 1: like that and then the Lions again making an appearance
Speaker 1: on this graphic because I'm on Ross Browns playing Oh well, okay,
Speaker 1: there's definitely a note on that one. Cheese Bugs, Brocos writers,
Speaker 1: Jack's Eagles at forty five and a half. Let's give
Speaker 1: you guys some of our overs and unders here on
Speaker 1: game debut, as we have an opportunity to go go
Speaker 1: thumbs up thumbs down on some of these. The Giants
Speaker 1: and the Bears, the over under thirty nine and a half.
Speaker 1: What are we doing Cynthia, I think this is a
Speaker 1: run heavy situation. I think both of these teams are
Speaker 1: all about the run game. I think this is actually
Speaker 1: Sakwan Barkley is the number one running back for the week,
Speaker 1: and then I think on the other side, I think
Speaker 1: Khuel Herbert is also So it's going to be a
Speaker 1: pace thing, which means fewer than that many points, well pace,
Speaker 1: And I think you can expect that if you're going
Speaker 1: off of how the Bears have thrown the ball this season.
Speaker 1: I got a note on the Bears throwing the ball
Speaker 1: in this game coming up in the show. But I'm
Speaker 1: going up, baby, I'm going up because I think this
Speaker 1: Giant's pass rush currently in the bottom ten of the league.
Speaker 1: I can see the Bears having a little more expl alsiveness.
Speaker 1: And then there's the se Quon factor. I say, se
Speaker 1: Kwon breaks a couple and we and we get more
Speaker 1: points than we expected. So seven points, yeah, well I've
Speaker 1: got way over. I think. I like we're in the
Speaker 1: We're in the forties in that game. I'm looking forward
Speaker 1: to it. So Commanders and the Cowboys, how do you
Speaker 1: feel about that one? I think what was never forty
Speaker 1: one and a half? I have more than that. I
Speaker 1: have forty five more than our international correspondence forty five
Speaker 1: points to twenty, and I think the Cowboys win this one.
Speaker 1: I think that when I look to see what's going
Speaker 1: on with the Commander's defense, there's lots of ways that
Speaker 1: they can be targeted. And I do also think that
Speaker 1: they'll have a lot of tricks. You saw the Commanders.
Speaker 1: They throw the ball all of the time, So if
Speaker 1: you look to see how that adds up, eventually you
Speaker 1: get more points than forty points is what I have.
Speaker 1: I'm going under. The Commanders throwing the ball all the
Speaker 1: time isn't moving me the way I would talk to
Speaker 1: especially considering Carson Wentz's performance last week, and while Cooper
Speaker 1: Rush has operated well in the offense, it's not as
Speaker 1: well to justify some of the conversation about Cooper Rush
Speaker 1: that I've heard. So I'm going to go under in
Speaker 1: that game under. Agreeing with Greg and Rachel as well,
Speaker 1: I love points. I'm a fan of points. I wish
Speaker 1: I could tell you guys, we're gonna have more points.
Speaker 1: India believe there's points, so be confident, and that the
Speaker 1: Raiders would love to get some points. They would love
Speaker 1: to win a game, and week three isn't a must win?
Speaker 1: They said that week three was a must win? What
Speaker 1: wasn't Week four is an extra? Which game isn't a
Speaker 1: must win? Right? Like? You should try hard at all
Speaker 1: of them? Anyway, which one of us is picking the Raiders?
Speaker 1: Is anybody fund out? Next one game? Baby, let's get
Speaker 1: some quick picks done. We've got Denver at Vegas. Two
Speaker 1: offensive that have been kind of surprising, So Cynthia surprising
Speaker 1: in bad directions? What are we doing here in this game?
Speaker 1: You know? I think it's funny because I think it's
Speaker 1: about time we see the Russell Wilson that we're used
Speaker 1: to sort of emerge. You saw him actually run last week.
Speaker 1: It's a big deal. Running turns out helpful. So I
Speaker 1: have a nice win for the Broncos in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: I was surprised again the Raiders. With my gut, I
Speaker 1: keep thinking Raiders are going to win this one, and
Speaker 1: then the math comes out and I'm like, wow, two
Speaker 1: Broncos win, Like that's different, So gut and we're gonna
Speaker 1: keep going with math. It works. Last week see and
Speaker 1: Russ breakaway and have that those big plays in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter made me believe as well. Rachel going loan
Speaker 1: d get to the Lions playing host to Gino and
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and I am summoning the power of Geno
Speaker 1: Smith and this one in a one point win by
Speaker 1: the Seahawks twenty Greg didn't pick the Seahawks. So Greg's
Speaker 1: Geno credibility on the way out, Cynthia, he used to
Speaker 1: be the reverse Driks. Here. Can we just talk for
Speaker 1: a moment. Look at the logo with my name. I
Speaker 1: almost never has my team. Usually it's like, oh, I
Speaker 1: get to be right either way, like my heart gets
Speaker 1: your right or my model this week, it's all the same.
Speaker 1: So Lions, please don't let me down. No Alman Ross Brown,
Speaker 1: that's a problem. I don't think DeAndre should play. Okay,
Speaker 1: so Jamal Williams shifts in and that's gonna be great
Speaker 1: for him for your fantasy team. But please don't let
Speaker 1: please don't let me down. Please don't let me down.
Speaker 1: Don't don't let out the model, don't don't let's invested
Speaker 1: in the Lions. Let's let's get to the Tennessee Titans
Speaker 1: at the Colts. How do you see it? I guess
Speaker 1: I'm alone here. Prime number is an interesting. I think
Speaker 1: we're starting to see this Colts team come together. I
Speaker 1: think this year, with all these key players moving in
Speaker 1: new quarterbacks like Matt Ryan here, we're gonna start to
Speaker 1: see everything come together. This is why this is this
Speaker 1: pick happens. It's because we're starting to see, just like
Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson, these teams are starting to have enough
Speaker 1: plays and snaps together that they're actually starting to perform
Speaker 1: like we thought. And it also helps with Michael Pittman's healthy.
Speaker 1: The biggest part of their passing game will go to
Speaker 1: the Chargers at Houston. And I'm going to keep my
Speaker 1: picks consistent here strictly because this is a situation where
Speaker 1: you have a team on the road that is hurt.
Speaker 1: I'm going to say the same thing where that did
Speaker 1: for the Saints in London. It's tough. No Slater, no Alan,
Speaker 1: gimme Houston and this one that's it, and it is
Speaker 1: another straight bond. I don't I don't mind being alone
Speaker 1: on this one because the Chargers are hurt. I hope
Speaker 1: everybody gets healthy, especially Herbo Yes twenties, but I have
Speaker 1: and no Keenan Allen in this one. For your fantasy notes,
Speaker 1: not all the points to come by in there. But
Speaker 1: let's so let's go to Arizona visiting the Panthers. Cynthia,
Speaker 1: I think that it's going to be interesting to see. Look,
Speaker 1: if Christian McCaffrey is not playing, then that could switch.
Speaker 1: But for right now, that's where we're at all right,
Speaker 1: looking forward to that. We're looking forward to all these games,
Speaker 1: but we are looking forward to some more than the
Speaker 1: other because we feel confident about them. And Cynthia's model
Speaker 1: feels confident about all of these. Packers over Patriots, Eagles
Speaker 1: over the Jags. Don't even say the last one, just
Speaker 1: just leave it there because we already did my super
Speaker 1: confident Other than that, which one of these really jump
Speaker 1: out to you, Cynthia, I mean green Bay, that's a
Speaker 1: huge win. Model doesn't usually pick by ten points is rare,
Speaker 1: but this this one's because look the m v P
Speaker 1: from last year back to back m v P and
Speaker 1: unfortunately for the Patriots there without their starting quarterback. It's
Speaker 1: no slight to Brian Hoyer, but it makes a big
Speaker 1: difference not having Mac Jones out there, and Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 1: is starting to look more and more like Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1: I think we get a Christian Watson touchdown. He looks
Speaker 1: to me off the injury reports, So that could be
Speaker 1: a fun one for your kind of just just watch
Speaker 1: this watch and see if that would happens. Redemption for
Speaker 1: Christian wants and Matt Lafleur shouting out Brian Hoyer's two
Speaker 1: thousand fourteen exploits earlier this week that was specifically, I
Speaker 1: like Brian Hoyer. He went to Michigan State. I love
Speaker 1: I'm from me, you know that, and from me's lancing,
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm all about liking him, but it
Speaker 1: just makes it a lot harder. Mac Jones is a
Speaker 1: really special quarterback. It's he's good, It's party love all Michigan.
Speaker 1: Love for the glove here a game debut, folks. The

Speaker 1: Welcome to beautiful London, England. I know a bunch of
Speaker 1: you guys are traveling for the International Games, and since
Speaker 1: I've been here for a minute, I thought i'd scout
Speaker 1: a few places for you guys to hang. So we're
Speaker 1: in the Saints Bar right now. And actually a bunch
Speaker 1: of their drinks are named after famous Jamis Winston quotes.
Speaker 1: So this one is actually called our body is so symmetrical.
Speaker 1: You got you got your risks, you don't need. You
Speaker 1: got you shoulders on the top, but you just get
Speaker 1: different parts a little long if you ask me. But
Speaker 1: Cheers and Vikings fans, you have your own bar too.
Speaker 1: But the only thing is you can only get in
Speaker 1: if you do a good gritty. Do you know what
Speaker 1: else this bar has? Saints fans w shaped pretzels? Okay,
Speaker 1: we never have to see this again. Okay have you
Speaker 1: ever seen Jamis do the eating the w videos one time?
Speaker 1: Vikings fans, You're already gonna feel right at home because
Speaker 1: I taught the kind people of London your quarterback's favorite
Speaker 1: saying you like that? All right, I have a favor
Speaker 1: to ask you. Can you say you like that? You
Speaker 1: like that? You like that? You like that. I love it.
Speaker 1: I love that. So there you go. Once you land
Speaker 1: in London, you are going to be all set. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go get a drink there it is. Rachel still
Speaker 1: working on the gritty, but the folks are gonna be
Speaker 1: ready to say you like that. I mean I like
Speaker 1: it with a British accent even better. It sends it.
Speaker 1: Maybe we need to send a clip of that to
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins so he can after the game just say that,
Speaker 1: just affect that. It be so perfect Gruff as well.
Speaker 1: We've got some some predictions. You have a quick prediction
Speaker 1: for the people. Yeah, I think Garrett Wilson catches a
Speaker 1: touchdown pass from Zach Willson. We get a good Wilson
Speaker 1: to Wilson first touchdown in his Zach Wilson's return, Go
Speaker 1: Jazz takeslight. I love that Wilson to Wilson. I will
Speaker 1: take one. Because Justin Fields hasn't completed twenty three passes
Speaker 1: passes this year, I think that Justin Fields will throw
Speaker 1: the ball twenty five times this week against the Giants
Speaker 1: pass rush. That is so thus far the worst pass
Speaker 1: you're not saying it's completing. At first, I thought you
Speaker 1: were like kind of low key, like like shade. Now
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, he's gonna throw it, and he's gonna
Speaker 1: attempt at least, yes, at least actual attempts. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying drop backs. I'm not going to take cheap He's
Speaker 1: Justin Fields will throw at least passes. Let's get it.
Speaker 1: You put me on seven team. Okay, great, Justin Fields
Speaker 1: game and people will everybody in Chicago will feel a
Speaker 1: whole lot better and things will be good. Look, the
Speaker 1: people of Chicago are they're they're fine, They're they're happier. Right,
Speaker 1: They're gonna be totally fine. This is this is a
Speaker 1: good one. I think, Khalil Herbert, we're fine too. But
Speaker 1: we miss Gregg and Rady back for Cynthia and Patrick
Speaker 1: and for those two as well. We'll see you guys
