You and 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: I spoke all the way back in Week four, I believe, 10 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: so it's been a while. How you doing doing great? 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: We're here on the eve of Halloween, one of the 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 2: most fun holidays here in the United States, where even 13 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: adults get to dress up in costumes and walk around 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 2: the neighborhood and you. 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: Get dressed up, Rich, That's what I think the listeners want. 16 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: Know. Unfortunately, I do not. I don't work in a 17 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: traditional environment anywhere anymore where I go into an office 18 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: and there might be like an office party. I work 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 2: remotely and with a small team, so unfortunately I don't 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: have that avenue with which to have a Halloween party. 21 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: But I definitely am yearning to be a child again 22 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 2: and get dressed up. 23 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: So do you have children of your own rich I 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: do not not. Yes, So let me just give you 25 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: a very quick preview before we get into the show 26 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: of what is going to be like. At some point, 27 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: your Halloween will no longer be dominated by like, oh 28 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: do I wear a costume or not? Your Halloween will 29 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: be dominated by the forecast says it's supposed to rain. 30 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: Is our small suburban town going to cancel trick or 31 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: trening entirely because of the rain? Or is it not? 32 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: And how are we supposed to deal with that? That 33 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: is what I have been dealing with for the last 34 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: four hours. 35 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: So doesn't Halloween now have like a set time, like, yes, 36 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: this is when treating happens from the five to seven thirty. 37 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: Five to seven thirty. 38 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: It's a narrow window to get canned, it really is. 39 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: And if you ring a bell before them, they will 40 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: yell at you and say it has not started yet, 41 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: even no matter how c how cute your kids look. 42 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: So anyway, we could talk about Halloween forever, but I 43 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: think people probably we want to hear about some gambling advice, 44 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,919 Speaker 1: so let's do that before we get into it. Okay, 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: let's do some full disclosure. As always, I missed hard 46 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: on the Panthers getting six from the forty nine ers 47 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: last week, and I missed not as hard but still 48 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: hard on the Chiefs getting three and a half from 49 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: the Packers last week. I did hit on the Bears 50 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: and the Chargers under forty as well as Deontay Johnson 51 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: over seventy five receiving yards at plus one ninety. I 52 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: think that's the fourth straight game that I hit on 53 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: my top prop, so I'm gonna get a little bolder 54 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: this week now. Our guest Ian McMillan had a good week, 55 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: hitting on the Eagles plus one and a half against 56 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 1: the Bills and the Broncos getting five and a half 57 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: from the Colts, as well as his top prop of 58 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones over seventy five yards, which he basically doubled. 59 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: His only miss was the Jets and Jaguars under forty one, 60 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: and as a jetsman, I will take full responsibility for that. 61 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: So not the worst week overall, but we can do better. 62 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: Rich Now you're gonna hear us make a few picks 63 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: on the show, But if you want to see more 64 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: of my picks, or more of any sports betting experts picks, 65 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: just go to Beddingpros dot com.

Also, Rich and 69 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: I are going to be using the Betting Pros dot 70 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: Com consensus ods, which are the aggregate odds available in 71 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: the market. So, as always, we're going to get started 72 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: with pick six, where both Rich and I are going 73 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: to give three of our favorite bets for this weekend, 74 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: either against the spread or on the over, on or 75 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: all right, Rich, I've talked enough, start us off what 76 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: you got. 77 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 2: Let's start in the Northeast with a team that your 78 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: guest ian faded last week, and I guess we're fading 79 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: them again. I've got Washington plus ten against those pesky Bills, 80 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 2: and this is a great number if you can get 81 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: it at ten. I am seeing it across the board 82 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 2: on the Betting Pros against the spread portal, but nine 83 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: and a half elsewhere. So if you can get ten, 84 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: I suggest you run, don't walk to the window, to 85 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: take this number. Games like this are very interesting when 86 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 2: there is a high spread and a low total. In fact, 87 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: this decade. When the total is below forty and the 88 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: dog is getting between ten and fourteen points, they're covering 89 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: at a fifty nine percent clip. And it makes sense. 90 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 2: If you've got two really grindy teams that are supposed 91 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 2: to play a low scoring game, how do you expect 92 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: one team to get out ahead and extend the lead 93 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: enough to cover such a large number. In addition to that, 94 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 2: I mean, if you squint, are these teams that much different? 95 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: The Bills are definitely more talented, but Football Outsiders has 96 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 2: these two teams extremely close and overall efficiency, the Bills 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 2: at twenty fifth and the Washington around there as well, 98 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 2: and the Washington football team. They're bad, of course, but 99 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 2: they're a professional team. If you look at that Vikings game, 100 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: they didn't lay down like the Bengals or the Dolphins. 101 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: They competed the entire game. Bill Callahan wants to run 102 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 2: the ball, which is great in a scenario like this 103 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: because it limits the amount of possessions. It limits the 104 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: amount of opportunities for the Bills to get the ball 105 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: and score. So this is just way too many points 106 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: for a Bills team that doesn't stretch the field vertically 107 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: and kind of wants to play a grindy, low pace, 108 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: low scoring game. So give me the Washington professional football 109 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: team getting ten points. 110 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: All right, So here's what I'm gonna say about it. 111 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 2: You may we're gonna say Dwayne Haskins that that is 112 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: exactly what I'm going to exactly. 113 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Okay, So first of all, and correct me if I'm wrong. 114 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: I've had a busy day, so I have not seen 115 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: it yet. Last I saw Keenum was still in the 116 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 1: concussion protocol. Do you have any update on that? Is 117 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: he out of it yet? I have not seen it 118 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: because he had not practice. 119 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 2: Still in the protocol, and when they're in the protocol, 120 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: they're listed as at practice but in a limited fashion, 121 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: but still in the protocol. If Haskins plays, am I 122 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: a little queasy about this? Absolutely? But in the two 123 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: games we've seen Haskins play, to be fair to the 124 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: rook it's been in relief, right, He's been taking secondary 125 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 2: snaps and being thrown into a game while it's in action. Right. 126 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 2: We would hope for a better performance against the Giants. 127 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: That secondary is a mess. But with a full week 128 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: of practice. Look, I'm not telling you Dwayne Haskins is 129 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: going to come out here and be Tom Brady right, 130 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: But I think, what's the difference between him and case Keenum? 131 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 2: Can it be that large? Is that even possible? I 132 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: don't think so, I do, I really do, like I honestly. 133 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: Look, I first of all, I'll put it like this. 134 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: If it's Keenum, I love the Dead. I completely agree. 135 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: I mean the total, it's thirty seven. I mean, you're right, 136 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: how many points do exactly expect the Bills to score? 137 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: I mean that's a you know, a twenty three and 138 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,119 Speaker 1: a half, thirteen and a half, you know, imply total 139 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: over there. I don't see that. I agree, And the 140 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: one thing with the Redskins is they have a decent defense, 141 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: you know, especially their their front seven, you know, and 142 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: it's not like Josh Allen's able to pass all over 143 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: everybody because he's incredibly inaccurate. So I agree, I don't 144 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: really see them putting up a ton of points, and 145 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: the Redskins, when Keenum has been in there, have at 146 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: least been able to be competent offensively. But I have 147 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: to be honest, you make a fair point. Both games 148 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: Haskins was in relief, but the whole point of bringing 149 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: him in relief in that Giants game was to be like, 150 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: here's a layup for you, dude, and he, to me 151 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: just looks not in any way ready whatsoever? I mean 152 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: against the Vikings, I get it. Of course they're a 153 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: good defense. But he was you know, the overthrow to 154 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: McLaurin just really you know, killed me when I watched 155 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: it because it's just, you know, his elbow. They were 156 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: talking about his elbow so low, everything's sort of flying up. 157 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: So if he gets the start, and it's the reason 158 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: why I would not feel comfortable taking it yet. I mean, 159 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: you seem to think that the difference between Haskins and 160 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: Keenum is essentially not negligible but minor. For me, that 161 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,239 Speaker 1: is something that I think that I would be hesitant 162 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: to take it if Keenum starts. I want to make 163 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: it clear, I really like it, So if you get 164 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: good news on that, but for me. 165 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: But do we think the books would give themselves this 166 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: much liability if they think there is that much of 167 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: a difference. 168 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, Absolutely not correct. 169 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Bills are getting most of the tickets and 170 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 2: most of the money right now, and if they think 171 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 2: there's that much of a liability of Haskins being quarterback, 172 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: and this number they think would go up, then I 173 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 2: don't think they'd list a number at all. So for 174 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: them to be bold enough to hang this number and 175 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: say whatever, go bet the bills, that gives me confidence 176 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: in taking Washington. 177 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: That's a really good point, because again, the Vikings and 178 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs have basically been off the board the whole week, 179 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: at least from what I can tell, right because you 180 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: don't know whether or not Mahomes is going to play, 181 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: and that makes a big difference. So I think that 182 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: that's a fair point, whether or not they think they 183 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: feel confident that Kingum is going to play, or whether 184 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: or not they think that the downgrade isn't that much. 185 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: But either way, I have no problem with it, because 186 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,119 Speaker 1: I do think Kingdom's going to play at this point. Personally, 187 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: I'm not making my pick. I'm betting broths dot com 188 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: until I know who started to get quarterback. But I'm 189 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: a little hesitant and maybe a little jaded by the 190 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: fact that I was, you know, closely watching that Thursday 191 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: night game and horrified at what I saw. But he 192 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: has obviously been taking a lot of reps this week 193 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: at least, and he's had you know, ten days I'm 194 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: sure to get more familiar with everything. So okay, Washington 195 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: plus ten, I'll go there. I'm gonna take an equally 196 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: you know, boring game, and I'm going to take the 197 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: Jets and the Dolphins over forty one and a half. 198 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: So these are two teams that are both complete disasters 199 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: at the moment. The Jets have done almost nothing offensively 200 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: the last two games, but the real reason is just 201 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: that Sam Darnold is getting his butt kicked non stop. 202 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: The Jets offensive line is a complete disaster. So when 203 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: you put them up against the Patriots strong defensive line, 204 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: they're all over him. The Jaguars sacked him eight times, 205 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: and again, that's kind of what you expect from those teams. 206 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 1: The Pats are first in the league in sacks. The 207 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: Jaguars are third, of course, boyed by a little bit 208 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: of what they did against the Jets, but that's not 209 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: gonna be the case with the Dolphins. They have just 210 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: nine sacks on the season. That's second worst in the league, 211 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: tied with the Jets. Incidentally, they rarely get pressure, and 212 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: you've seen the Jets like competent offensively, at least against 213 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. You're gonna see it again here. Leveon Bell 214 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: is going to have a big game. Robbie Anderson is 215 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: going to have a big game with Zami and Howard 216 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: now on Ir which was like the one guy in 217 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: the secondary, even though he was not playing particularly well 218 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: this year, the one guy in the secondary once they 219 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: got rid of Minka Fitzpatrick that you feared. Sam Darnold 220 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: is playing through a thumb spring, but it is his 221 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: left hand. I think he's gonna be fine. He's fully practicing. 222 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: So I think the Jets are gonna put up points here, 223 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: and I think so are the Dolphins. The offense looks 224 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: kind of competent with fits back out there, which he's 225 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: already been named the starter like the Dolphins. As I said, 226 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: the Jets get absolutely no pressure, just nine sacks, and 227 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 1: now they're down. Leonard Williams. C J. Mosley is probably 228 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: going to miss the rest of the season. He's obviously 229 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: not gonna play in this game. The secondary outside of 230 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams is not great, and Adams is in full 231 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: drama mode. He basically, you know, is angry at the 232 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: prospect of getting traded. He refused a meeting with the 233 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: GM right now, so who even knows you know what 234 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: is going to happen with him this weekend. But either way, 235 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: in the end, it's two really terrible defenses and two 236 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: offenses that have enough playmakers to move the ball. So 237 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: for me, the over at forty one and a half 238 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: is my favorite bet of the weekend. 239 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 2: This is great and not only are the raw sacks 240 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 2: really low for the Dolphins, the advanced metrics absolutely hate 241 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: them as well. Twenty fifth in DVA pass rushing, thirty 242 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 2: second over on Pro Football Focus. And that is the 243 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 2: weakness on this Jets offense. You know, think of think, 244 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: think what you want about Darnold, but the kid can 245 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 2: throw the ball and these weapons are a little bit fresky. 246 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 2: Jameson Crowder is a guy that can work himself open. 247 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 2: If Chris Herndon comes back, he's going to be a 248 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: nice threat alongside Ryan Griffin, who's been just more than 249 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 2: a warm body running routes for this Jets offense. And 250 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 2: on the other side of the ball. On the grid 251 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 2: Iron Gamble podcast, we like to refer to Fitzpatrick as 252 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: Fitzpowder keg because the keg can blow at any time 253 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: and there is certainly a defensive touchdown to be had 254 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 2: in this game if Keg is just throwing the ball 255 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: all over the field against a very very agressive Greg 256 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: Williams defense. So yeah, I definitely like the over in 257 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: this spot, especially if we can look into one of 258 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: those defensive touchdowns Spy. 259 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: And don't don't forget I mean, you know, as it's 260 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 1: a great nickname for Fits, but he can move the ball. 261 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: I mean they scored on their opening two drives against 262 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: the Steelers pretty easily. You know, Fits was moving down 263 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: the field. And don't forget the narrative. This is one 264 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: of what's you know, I don't know how many revenge 265 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: games Fits can have. Yeah, it's got to be something. 266 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: So I agree. I think both teams are are really 267 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: going to put up some points here, and I think 268 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: it's going to hit this over pretty pretty well. So 269 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: I feel good about this one, and it's my number 270 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: one bet. All right, let's move on to your second pick. 271 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: What do you have? All right? 272 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: If we didn't like Dwayne Haskins putting real money on him, 273 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: let's get a little uglier and select the Chicago Bears 274 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 2: plus five traveling to Philadelphia to play the Eagles. To me, 275 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: and my third game will be like this as well, 276 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: this is very much a market play. This is a 277 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: three and a half point look aheadline. Preseason this line 278 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 2: was three. I don't know what the difference is really 279 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: between these two teams other than the fact that the 280 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: Bears have been embarrassed two straight weeks at home and 281 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: everybody thinks they're horrific and their stock is plummeting. And 282 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 2: the Eagles went to Buffalo and poured thirty on a 283 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 2: team that previous to that game only had one loss 284 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 2: at Philadelphia's lows have been very low this season. They 285 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 2: lost to the Falcons, they lost to six point favorites 286 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: at home to the Lions. Even when they beat up 287 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: on our stinky Jets, they only had four and a 288 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: half yards per play in that game. So this is 289 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: a stock high stock love spot where I really think 290 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: that we can take the Bears. And just looking at 291 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: the football analysis as well, Jason Peter's not playing today. 292 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: He's not practicing today, excuse me on Wednesday. He's not 293 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: played the last couple of games. And Andre Dillard, who 294 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 2: they drafted as a luxury to be a backup left tackle, 295 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: has really struggled. Struggled. Now he's gonna have Khalil Mack 296 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 2: lining up right in front of him. Even the double 297 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: team is gonna make that life hell for the rookie 298 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 2: on the left hand side. So give me the Bears 299 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 2: get right spot on the road, a bad secondary to 300 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: get Trubisky going a little bit, Matt and Agy scheming 301 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 2: some things up. I just think this is a point 302 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 2: maybe a point and a half. 303 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: Too high, all right, So I don't mind it whatsoever. 304 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: And it did move, you're right, even at the beginning 305 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: of the week. I think it was three and a 306 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: half or something like that. So it's been recent and 307 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: again a lot of it is from this weekend. But 308 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: you know, other than that last maybe sentence or two 309 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: that you threw in there, there's very little about the Bears' 310 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: offense going on. Do you think that they're going to 311 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: be able to put up point I know the Eagles 312 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: secondary is horrendous, but their run defense is good. And 313 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: you know David Montgomery, he was kind of the guy 314 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: last week. They finally went to him. So I get 315 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: completely about the Eagles having trouble scoring necessarily, But do 316 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: you think the Bears are going to be able to 317 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: put up points here? 318 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: I think they'll be able to do enough I trust 319 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 2: Nagy enough coming from that read coaching tree to scheme 320 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: up things against an Eagle secondary that is really really 321 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: struggling to cover. And Nigel Bradham you can add to 322 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 2: that injury report as well. He's a very good linebacker 323 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: for Philadelphia. So I mean, what do we need to 324 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 2: get to seventeen twenty points here to secure a cover? 325 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: I think Naggy and those guys can do it. I mean, 326 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: this Eagles team has been They're kind of the yo 327 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 2: yo team this year. Right. You kind of want to 328 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: fade them after they've looked great and bet on them 329 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 2: after they've looked terrible because the opposite is coming, and 330 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 2: I think this is a week we can almost take 331 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: advantage of that. 332 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, I don't hate it, and it kind of 333 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: leads into my next pick, which I was gonna wait 334 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: till three, but I'll move it now since it goes 335 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: nicely into our narrative. The line has moved on this one, 336 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: like we were talking about right before I said, ah, 337 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: the line moved on one of the games that I 338 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: had right before I had this pick. But I'm still 339 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: gonna go with it. And that is the same game 340 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: that you picked, which is the Bears and Eagles, and 341 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: I'm going with under forty two. It was under forty 342 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: three when I first picked it. A lot of what 343 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: you said makes sense, except for the fact that I 344 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: don't really see either team necessarily being able to put 345 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: up a ton of points. The Shawn Jackson is potentially 346 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: back this week, that screws up the narrative a tiny bit, 347 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: because I do think he makes it kind of a 348 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: big difference in that offense for the Eagles. But again, 349 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: I really do think that this sets up well for 350 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: the Unders, just in the way that both these teams play. 351 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: The Eagles you've talked about them, but in particular, they're 352 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: like the worst first half team in the game today. 353 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, remember they started the season by being down 354 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: twenty to seven against Washington. They fell behind significantly against 355 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: both the Lions you just mentioned and the Vikings. For 356 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: whatever reason, they cannot get going early. They've been behind 357 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: at halftime in five of their eight games. They're one 358 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: of the worst teams in the league in terms of 359 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: first quarter and first half point differential. I don't really 360 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: have the reason for it other than I think that 361 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: they're really not a very good football team right now, 362 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: and then they play with their hair on fire in 363 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: the comeback mode, so they can just get some points 364 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: out of there, but otherwise they just struggle. And on 365 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball, things just they just 366 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: look disjointed, right, I mean, zach Ertz hasn't gotten the 367 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: ball enough. The offensive line is a disaster. As you mentioned, 368 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: they're finally leaning on the running game and that's working 369 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: a little bit more, but it's not really you know, 370 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders is banged up a little bit with the shoulder. 371 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: He should play, but again I don't expect them to 372 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: be able to, you know, have however, whatever four rushing 373 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: touchdowns or three rushing touchdowns like they had last game 374 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: against the Bills. And on the defensive side, again, the 375 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: secondary has been decimated by injuries all year long. Jalen Mills, 376 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: Ronald Darby, Vonte Maddox. They've all missed time and again. 377 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: They can stop the run, but not really the past. 378 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: But that's probably a pretty good recipe for the under because, 379 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 1: unlike you, I have a little less faith I think 380 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: in the Bears offense. I mean Mitchell Trubisky. To me, 381 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: I've watched them closely. Everything is bad. This is taking 382 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: a giant sort of leap backwards. There was all these 383 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: whispers in the preseason about how he just looked like 384 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: he had regressed, and I didn't really buy it. But 385 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: you know, whatever it is, he's been inaccurate. He doesn't 386 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: look confident. The play calling in Matt ANDEGGI you know, 387 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned it as a positive. I don't know. It 388 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: almost seems designed not to maximize the Bear strength at 389 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: this point. And again, you know, the one thing that 390 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: they have going right now, I mean, Alan Robinson's playing great, 391 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: but David Montgomery last game, he looked great. They ran 392 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: out a ton, but that's really where the Eagles sort 393 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,959 Speaker 1: of set up shops. So in the end, I just 394 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: don't really think that all of a sudden, the Eagles 395 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: are suddenly going to magically fix their slow starts. And 396 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: in the end, I don't think they're gonna need to 397 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: really come charging in the second half like they have 398 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: been and put up all those points that they usually do, 399 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: because I don't see the Bears getting out to a 400 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: big lead. And I get the last game was eleven 401 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: to seven against the Bills, and then the Eagles wound 402 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 1: up putting up twenty points in the second half. But 403 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: a lot of that was fluky. I don't really think, 404 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: as you said, they're up and then they're immediately down. 405 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: So I don't really expect to see that this week. 406 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: I expect a low, close scoring game, which is why 407 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: I don't in any way hate the Bears getting five, 408 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: because I think once you're past the key number of three, frankly, 409 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: I feel a little more confident in the Bears. So 410 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: for me, even though I liked it at forty three, 411 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: which is when I originally said I was gonna take it, 412 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: I will take it at the Bears Eagles under forty two. 413 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 2: Well, your thoughts they brought down the action, you know, 414 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 2: your your sharp thoughts moving markets. 415 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: Right, I mean I figured, you know, the Bears are 416 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: usually a pretty good underplay, just because they put up 417 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,239 Speaker 1: so few points and the defense gets a little bit 418 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: of a bad rap right now. I mean, their run 419 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: defense is clearly weaker without a Keen Hicks. Okay, there's 420 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: no denying that, but it's still overall a relatively strong defense. 421 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: I mean, go be a Jets fan for a day 422 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: and then figure out, you know what it's like to 423 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: watch an actual mediocre team. So for me, you know, 424 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 1: I think in the end, it's going to be a 425 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 1: close scoring game. I agree with you that the Eagles 426 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: just when they're up, that's when you kind of bet 427 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 1: against them. So for me, I think it's much more 428 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: betting against the offense, and I think it's just going 429 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: to kind of be a you know, a hard hit 430 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: game that's going to be relatively close. All right, let's 431 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: move on to your third pick. 432 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: What do you got another marketplay for me? Raiders minus 433 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 2: two over the Lions. To me, these are two average 434 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 2: teams that have a little bit of upside. Just hang 435 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: three in this game and let it sit. But the 436 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 2: Raiders are just getting no love from the market despite 437 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: covering three out of their last four games. And if 438 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 2: you look at that Packers game that Derek Carr almost 439 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: called him David almost called him, David, But I don't 440 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: do it. 441 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: Don't do it. 442 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 2: That Derek Carr fumble touchback was really a game changer 443 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: in a game where the Raiders were competitive. It was 444 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 2: kind of a fake blowout for the Packers. Again, Dvoa 445 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 2: has these two teams close. Lions fourteenth and overall efficiency 446 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: Raiders right there in seventeenth. And this is a great 447 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: homecoming for a team that's been on the road since 448 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 2: September fifteenth, that's forty nine days come Sunday. Their only 449 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: quote unquote home game was played in North London at 450 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 2: Tottenham Stadium. Come on you Spurs, big game against Everton 451 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 2: this weekend. This is defense sold separately too. Both teams 452 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 2: in the bottom third Lions fifth and pass efficiency according 453 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 2: to DVA Raiders sixth, and we've got some real problems 454 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: here in this Lion secondary. They traded away KWANJ. Driggs. Thankfully, 455 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 2: Darius Slay's back at practice today on Wednesday, but Tracy Walker, 456 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 2: the safety, the second safety, went out with an injury 457 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 2: to his knee against the Giants, did not practice today, 458 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 2: so they might be out without Digs, without Walker and 459 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 2: a limping Darius Sligh. So points galore in this game, 460 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 2: and just give me the home team giving less than 461 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: a field goal in the spot. 462 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I would say that I don't love it, 463 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: but I like it in this one. I think the Raiders, 464 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: I'll be fully honest. When I first saw this line 465 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: on Monday, which actually was less than it is now, 466 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: I think it was maybe minus one. It surprised me 467 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: a little bit, and that is me really just not 468 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: giving the Raiders enough credit for what they are. I 469 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: took them in that game against the Packers. I don't 470 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: remember if that was one of my picks, but I 471 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: think they were getting you know, four and a half 472 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: by the end because a lot of sharp money came 473 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: in on the Raiders, and yeah, they got blown out, 474 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: but they really shouldn't have. It was that fumble, and 475 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: they were in the red zone a couple of other 476 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: times and turned it over, so that game could have 477 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 1: been a lot closer than it was. Their offensive line 478 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: is playing extremely well, Josh Jacobs is doing good things, 479 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: and again you know, now that Tyroll Williams is back, 480 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: it gives car another option after Darren Waller out there. 481 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, with all with the Lions, who I also 482 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: feel like generally been underrated. I mean, they didn't cover 483 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: against the Giants, though I agree, you know, their defense 484 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: is just you know, beat up a little bit. If 485 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: Slave plays, that certainly helps them. But in the end, 486 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: I really don't hate it. I don't know whether or 487 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: not I'll be able to pick if I had to 488 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: choose a side, though I would choose the Raiders, So 489 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: I definitely. 490 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 2: Don't Hey talk about the O line real quick. Trent 491 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 2: Brown came back last week after an injury, immediately graded 492 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 2: as an eighty three point seven on PFF, and last 493 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 2: week was the first time since preseason all five slated 494 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 2: starters played on the offensive line. They were the highest 495 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 2: rated they've been all season eighty six and pass blocking 496 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 2: per PFF. So this is a well coached, well executing 497 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 2: unit right now. That is the healthiest it's been all season. 498 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 2: So I think this is the best value you might 499 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 2: get on this Raiders team all season. 500 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, and again, I have no problems with the offense. 501 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: It's much more about the defense, which I think again 502 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: the Lions they do have no they're just completely abandoning 503 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: pretending to try to run the ball. You know, they 504 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: at least tried with Kerry on Johnson in there, but 505 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: they're just kind of giving that up right now and 506 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: going with the smorgasboard of you know whoever they've gotten 507 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: there with Trey Carson and Ty Johnson, and it's not 508 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: really going to work. So they are just going to 509 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: be passing, which is fine, but you make them one dimensional, 510 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: and you know, the Raiders should at least be able 511 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: to hang with them. So I don't mind it considering 512 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: their home, you know, giving less than field goal. Let's 513 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: move on to my final pick, which is the Colts 514 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 1: laying one to the Steelers in Pittsburgh. I didn't get 515 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: this line when it opened. I don't get it now, 516 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 1: I will not get it tomorrow. I think the Steelers 517 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: defense is solid. It's not spectacular, but it's very solid, 518 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: particularly since they added Minka Fitzpatrick. They get a ton 519 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 1: of interceptions in sacks, but you can throw on them, 520 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 1: as Fitzpatrick showed pretty easily that you can put up 521 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: points against them right at the outset on Mondays on 522 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: Monday Night. The Colts passing offense, you know, it's been 523 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: generally good. Jacoby Brissett has fit in well for Andrew Luck. 524 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 1: It's a little bit of a mixed bag generally, but 525 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: for the most part, the passing game has been working. 526 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 1: And they're also the Steelers, I'll give them that. They're 527 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: also in addition to good against the past, they're good 528 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: against the run all right. They hold opposing teams to 529 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: really low yars per carry average. But the Colts have 530 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: won the best defensive lines in the league. Marlon Mack 531 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 1: has run really well. I don't expect them to get 532 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: shut down here. But the problem with the Steelers is really, 533 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: for me, their offense. It's not at all impressive. Under 534 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph, he's been extremely subpar. He doesn't push the 535 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 1: ball down field enough. He struggled for the most part 536 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: against the Dolphins. He was largely bailed out by Juju 537 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: Smith Schuster making leaping catches and some ridiculous defensive decisions 538 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: that freed up Deontay Johnson on a third and twenty 539 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: when the Dolphins called the blitz. They Steelers rank near 540 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: the bottom of the league in passing and their run 541 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,959 Speaker 1: game is good, but they're really banged up. Connor as 542 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: the shoulder injury, Benny Snell jered his knee, Jalen Samuels 543 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: is just coming back off the knee injury. I Meanwhile, 544 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: the Colts defense is very solid on both sides of 545 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: the ball. They get pressure on the quarterback consistently. They've 546 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: got nineteen sacks on the year, and the Steelers are 547 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: good at protecting Rudolph. But I imagine there's going to be 548 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: some happy feat and the Colts are also solid against 549 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: the run. Their overall numbers are a little misleading because 550 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: they've been without Darius Leonard for a few games. But 551 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: they've allowed just eighty three yards rushing per game over 552 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: their last three games. So I think they're really doing well. 553 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: And this just seems like to me, the Colts are 554 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: a clearly better team. I get that they're on the road, 555 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: and I realized that they nearly lost last week against 556 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: the Broncos. But first, the Broncos are not nearly as 557 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: bad as their record indicates. They could easily have won 558 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 1: three of the games that they lost, but it was 559 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: really just a weird game. The Colts are rarely penalized, 560 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: and I think they might have gotten hit with ten 561 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: penalties last week. It was crazy. I'm basically throwing it out. 562 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: You add to that the fact that the Steelers are 563 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: on a short week and as I said, they're banged up, 564 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: especially at running back. It's hard for me to steal 565 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: to see the Steelers coming out ahead of this one. 566 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: So given the Colts laying. 567 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 2: One, love this, absolutely love it. You know I've you've 568 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 2: sniped this from me. You gotta you snuck it in 569 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 2: before I could take it. Look, the Colts offensive line 570 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 2: is going to be good enough to neutralize this Steelers 571 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 2: pass rush, which is phenomenal first in DVA fourth on 572 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: Pro Football Focus. Jacoby Brissett is going to have enough 573 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 2: time to operate in this offense. And traditionally the Steelers 574 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 2: tend to be more of a zone team. Now they've 575 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 2: tried to change that this year right by bringing in 576 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 2: Minka Fitzpatrick and drafting a linebacker early so that they 577 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: could play more man concept. But I still think that 578 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 2: Bersett's going to be able to stand back there and 579 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 2: make the correct read in this game. And on the 580 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 2: other side of the ball, Mason Rudolph is horrendous getting 581 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 2: great protection on Monday night. He's just the first interception, 582 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: he had a beautiful pocket. He sat back there and 583 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: patted the ball for several seconds before making the worst 584 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 2: decision possible and handing the ball to the Dolphins. You 585 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 2: can do that against the historically bad team and get 586 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 2: away with the victory and they damn near covered fourteen 587 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 2: in the process as well, But you can't do that 588 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: against a good football team, and that's what the Colts are. 589 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: And beyond all of this, this is one of the 590 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 2: largest coaching this matches you'll see this weekend. Mike Tomlin 591 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 2: against frank Reich. Frank Reich was the architect of everything 592 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: that the Eagles did, and he's taken a Colt's roster 593 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: and elevated it to a point where it should not 594 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 2: be post Andrew Locke. So yeah, the Colts, this will 595 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 2: steam up closer to three. I don't think it'll ever 596 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 2: get to the key number of three. But if you 597 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: like the Colts in the spot, you should take them 598 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: as soon as possible. 599 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: So you know, you make that point. But why hasn't 600 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: it moved yet? I mean it was basically I mean, 601 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: I think it was a pick em maybe the look 602 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 1: aheadline when it first came out. But it hasn't moved significantly. 603 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: You think there's gonna be a ton of sharply because 604 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: it makes me nervous when I look at a line 605 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: like this, I'm like, no, no, no, this is incorrect, 606 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: and it's not moving significantly. I mean the number I'm 607 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: looking just sort of at the amount of money that's 608 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: being put on it, and you know, the number of 609 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: bets the money being put on it is essentially less 610 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: in terms of percentages than the number of bets, So 611 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: you know, are we missing something here? Is because I 612 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: really would have expected this to move by now. 613 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: I definitely love the way you're thinking about this. Right, 614 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: If something seems too good to be true, it probably isn't. 615 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 2: One game that's like that this week is we haven't 616 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 2: touched upon? Is the Packers Chargers right like sharing at 617 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 2: that number? And you're like, why aren't the Packers like 618 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 2: mind session exactly, and why isn't it steaming tremendously in 619 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: that direction? So I definitely understand those concerns. But I 620 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 2: think when you're working with numbers between the field goals, right, 621 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 2: and again, I don't think this number will ever get 622 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: to three. I think eventually it'll creep up as they 623 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 2: try to get more money on Steelers to balance the 624 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: books a little bit. I think our concerns can be 625 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 2: levied a little bit because it's it's not near a 626 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 2: key number. It won't reach a key number. I think 627 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,719 Speaker 2: as long as it doesn't steam through pick right then, 628 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 2: I think, you know, alarm bells should be going up. 629 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: Right now, I think we're okay. 630 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: All right that I think that that's fine. And again, 631 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: that is the obvious point. When you're not going through 632 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: the key numbers, it doesn't really matter if it's plus 633 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: one if it's plus two, it's a kind of irrelevant 634 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: at this point. It just seems to me that, you know, 635 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: I would want to hammer this number right now at 636 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: plus one, so I would feel like, you know, or 637 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: at minus one, so I feel like in the end, 638 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm just surprised that they're leaving it there and that 639 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: they aren't getting quite as much money at this point. 640 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: But again, we'll seek and you know, I'm certainly confident 641 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: enough in it to pick it now. All right, So 642 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: let's recap here, Rich, You're gonna take the Redskins getting 643 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: ten from the Bills, the Bears getting five from the Eagles, 644 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: and the Raiders laying two to the Lions. I'm going 645 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: to take the Jets and Dolphins over forty one and 646 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: a half, the Colts laying one to the Steelers, and 647 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: the Eagles Bears under forty two. Before we move on, 648 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: let's talk about BETMGM. All right.

All right, Rich, let's move on 689 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: to It's a trap, where we list the line that 690 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: we are avoiding. Go ahead and start us off. 691 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: Oh Man, just talking about this team gives me eggzema. 692 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I talked about Yo Yo's earlier 693 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 2: with regards to the Philadelphia Eagles, but the Bucks. You 694 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: never know when you're going to get the good Jamis 695 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 2: or the bad Jamis. And he's been a player that 696 00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 2: whenever I've got him or whenever I'm fading him. It 697 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,239 Speaker 2: seems to me that it's just the exact opposite is 698 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 2: going to happen. And from a pure numbers standpoint, analyzing 699 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 2: this game, looking how poor Seattle has been at home, 700 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 2: they failed to cover in four games that week, one 701 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 2: game against the Bengals. The Bengals are one of the 702 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 2: worst teams in football, and somehow they stuck with them 703 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 2: at CenturyLink. The Hawks secondary is no longer the legion 704 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: of boom. You should for sure be taking this six 705 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 2: and a half or six whatever number you're getting. Classic 706 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: tickets are on the Seahawks sixty percent. Clip money is 707 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 2: on the Bucks sixty eight percent. Clip Everything is telling 708 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 2: you take Tampa Bay, but I can't do it. 709 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: I can't. 710 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: I can't go near the bucks Man. So that is 711 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: why Ironstaingle. 712 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: First of all, I was legitimately about to say, you 713 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: have completely misunderstood the point of this exercise, because everything 714 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: you were saying, I thought We're gonna come up and 715 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: be like, you gotta take the Bucks. That's I'm asporting 716 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 1: to say. I was like, no, you can't, that's not 717 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: what we do in this section. So I've done this show. 718 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how many shows we've done at this point, 719 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: thirty forty, whatever it is, and almost every show I say, yeah, 720 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm staying away from whatever. The Bucks. When 721 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: the Bucks played the Titans, it was perfect because those 722 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: are two teams that I said to like, I don't know, 723 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not going anywhere near them. I agree, 724 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: this line looks pretty nice, it looks good for the Bucks. 725 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: But no, you can't ever trust Jameis Winston. You can't 726 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: trust anything that they're doing whatsoever. I mean, I'm completely 727 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: in agreement with you on this one because you just 728 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: don't know which one is going to shut up a 729 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 1: show up. 730 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 2: So you know what you do with the Bucks, You 731 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 2: just bet weird adjusted lines like bet Hawks minus twenty 732 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 2: and Bucks minus seven, Like those are those who are 733 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 2: what you should be betting in this game, because they are. 734 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 2: They just have all these outlier outcomes every single game. 735 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: You don't know what direction it's going to be, but 736 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 2: it's certainly going to be some sort of outline. 737 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 1: You are a genius. I love that strategy, but in 738 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: the meantime, do not take anything on the Bucks getting 739 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: six in this game. As for me, I am going 740 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: to avoid the Pats laying three to the Ravens. Now 741 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: this line has been steadily moving towards the Ravens all week. 742 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 1: I completely get why Patriots offense does not look dominant. 743 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: The Ravens are at home in prime time off of bye, 744 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: where John Harbaugh is great at getting his team going. 745 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 1: And the thing is, when I look at the game, 746 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: especially with Hollywood Brown looking likely to play here, I 747 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: do think it favors the Ravens, or at least it 748 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: did when they were getting more than a field goal. 749 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: But I kind of think the Patriots blow up all 750 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: narratives and expectations at this point. The defense is legitimate, 751 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: and when you have a quarterback like Lamar Jackson's primary 752 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: weapon is his legs, I just think that that is 753 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,479 Speaker 1: something that Bill Belijack can find a way to scheme around. 754 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: So first, I think that all the value has kind 755 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: of been sucked away now that the line is down 756 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 1: to an even field goal. But even if I did 757 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 1: see value, I would stay away because I just don't 758 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: see how you can possibly bet against the Patriots giving 759 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: anything within four points at this point, given that they've 760 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: There's just been so much value the last couple of weeks, 761 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 1: you know, when you looked at the and you looked 762 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: at the Browns and those spreads, and there was so 763 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: much value, and sharp betters have been all over those 764 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: plays and the Patriots have still covered. So for me, 765 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: I understand why there's a lot of sharp money coming 766 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: in on the Ravens. It was that I like them 767 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 1: at four, but I still would not have bet them almost. 768 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: You know, it's sort of the opposite with Winston. You 769 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna get with Winston. I know 770 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna get with the Patriots, and it scares 771 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: the bejeebas out of me, and I just don't feel 772 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: comfortable betting against them. So I'm avoiding the Patriots. Laying 773 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: three did the Ravens. 774 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 2: Every week, people tell me this is the spot, this 775 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 2: is the spot to fade the Patriots. Last week we 776 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: were doing our Super Contest show Brett Colson mo Noir. 777 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: This is absolutely the spot to take the Browns and 778 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 2: fade the Patriots. But spoiler alert, it's never the spot 779 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 2: to fade the Patriots. They get some weird muffed punt 780 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 2: or some weird last week Nick Chubb alignment karate kicks 781 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 2: the ball out of his hands and it turns into 782 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: a Patriots defensive score. These things are almost predictive now 783 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 2: for the New England Patriots, and it's just never the 784 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,760 Speaker 2: spot to fade them. Even as all the money poured 785 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 2: in on Cleveland last week and that number steamed through 786 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 2: the key number of ten and down to nine, it 787 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: did not matter. You don't make money fading, Bill Belichick. 788 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 2: You never have, you never will. And like the Bucks, 789 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 2: the Patriots are the ultimate stay away from me unless 790 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 2: I'm betting on them, because I'm just done with fading 791 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 2: the Pats at all costs. 792 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: And as someone who did take the Browns getting thirteen 793 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,720 Speaker 1: in the super contest this past week, I completely agree 794 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 1: with that. You just can't at this point anymore. 795 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,479 Speaker 2: I mean, you always walk away, You always walk away 796 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:47,959 Speaker 2: thinking that you were on the right side. 797 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: Of course I was on the right And it doesn't 798 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 1: mean it's a bad bet when you lose, right, of course, 799 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: that's not really what you're necessarily doing. Just because you lose, 800 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't necessarily make it a bad bet. And I'm 801 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: sure the sharp better is aren't gonna be like man, man, 802 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: why was I doing that? You know what I mean? 803 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: That's not the way it works. But still no, run 804 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: far away completely from anything involving the Patriots at the moments. 805 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: All right, so you're avoiding the Bucks getting six from 806 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, I'm avoiding the Ravens getting three from the Patriots. 807 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: Before we get into our final segment, remember we've got 808 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: a signed Odell Beckham junior helmet giveaway contests going on. 809 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,800 Speaker 1: Get more details over at bettingpros dot com slash contest, 810 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: but to be entered, just leave very review for the 811 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: show on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher and senda a screenshot 812 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: of that review to contest at Bettingpros dot com.

All right, Rich, time for Top prop 820 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: where we list our top player prop of the week. 821 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: Start us off, Well, you called me with my pants 822 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 2: down before we started the show. I forgot about this, 823 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 2: But while we were recording here, I initially had a 824 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 2: prop in there which was a little bit wild. I 825 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: had Mitch Trubisky overpassing yards two fifty decent value at 826 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 2: plus one eleven, and it correlates if you like Bears 827 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 2: plus five. But I'm going to pivot to a game 828 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 2: that actually you just selected, and that's Patriots Ravens and 829 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick. His method is always to kill the snake, 830 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 2: you take off the head, and in this case it 831 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 2: would be Lamar Jackson. I'm going to take the under 832 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 2: on fifty nine and a half rushing yards from Lamar Jackson. 833 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 2: That is a suspiciously low number. And I do believe 834 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 2: that in these scenarios where you have very low outlier 835 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 2: type prop lines even totals as well, that you usually 836 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 2: want to go on the side that it's on. In 837 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 2: this case, it's low, So your mind is saying take 838 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 2: the over, but I in fact would take the under. 839 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 2: That's what the Patriots are going to focus on in 840 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 2: this game, right, They're going to make Lamar Jackson throw 841 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 2: against the secondary they're going to build a wall with 842 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: their front seven, not allow him to get out and scamper. 843 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: You look at the way they defended Leveon Bell. Historically, 844 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 2: Leveon likes to take those two steps and then stop 845 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 2: and then read the zone blocking scheme and then go 846 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: from there. Well, if you watch how the Patriots defended him, historically, 847 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,919 Speaker 2: they don't get up the field on Leveon. They don't 848 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 2: fire into their gaps and then react to him. They 849 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 2: kind of just stand up and hold their positions and 850 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: then fall into the zone wherever he's running. So if 851 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,479 Speaker 2: you watch, Leveon never got tackled for loss a lot 852 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: against the Patriots because they didn't want to get upfield. Rather, 853 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 2: they would stop him, you know, two yards down the field, 854 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 2: three yards and make him ineffective in that fashion. And 855 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 2: I think I don't care that John Harbaugh had an 856 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 2: extra week to prepare this for this game. I think 857 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick is somebody who's been scheming for Lamar Jackson 858 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 2: the entire season, knowing how important this game will be 859 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 2: and how important their future playoff game might be. So 860 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 2: with all that being said, give me the under on 861 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 2: fifty nine and a half rushing yards for Lamar Jackson. 862 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: I really really like it for the reasons that you're saying. 863 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you know that Bell Jacks's gonna be like, 864 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: if we're gonna get big by Lamar Jackson throwing the ball, 865 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 1: I will live with that. But he's gonna take away 866 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 1: what they do best. That's what he does every single time. 867 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: My only concern with it is that I think with 868 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 1: a guy like Jackson who basically can have a broken 869 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: play and somehow find a way to scamper for a 870 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: big number, you know what I mean, And I take 871 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: a lot of QB rushing props. I don't know why. 872 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: Like I always see when I do my projections, which 873 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 1: I do a lot, especially for fantasy football, if I 874 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 1: find a number that I think is just drastically different 875 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,280 Speaker 1: than what I'm getting on the prop, which I do often, 876 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,919 Speaker 1: I will take them. But it's scary with a guy 877 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: like Jackson because again, they can hold him totally in check. 878 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: It's like when you would bet against Tyreek Hill ever right, 879 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: like you can hold him totally in check, and then 880 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: there's one play that's just gonna go off despite the 881 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 1: fact that they schemes so well. So that would be 882 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,280 Speaker 1: my only worry for it, but I agree it seems 883 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: like a low number, but I do like it because 884 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: you know that's exactly what they're gonna do. 885 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 2: For sure, it puts the fury go out of me 886 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 2: seeing his rushing totals so far this year one sixteen, 887 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 2: one fifty two, seventy sixty six, forty six and one 888 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 2: twenty like of course, you know this is this is 889 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,439 Speaker 2: why speaking of fantasy, Lamar has so much value. He's 890 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 2: got the Konami code. He gets those one point for 891 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,479 Speaker 2: ten yards rushing. But I just trust in the goat, 892 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 2: and that is Bill Belichick to keep him contained. 893 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: I can't blame him. I as I said, I'm gonna 894 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: get a little bolder on this one since I've been 895 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: hitting a bunch. I'm gonna I'm gonna try to ride 896 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: the wave here. And look, you and I talked about 897 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: that Jets Dolphins game and why like the over, and 898 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: one of the things I think is gonna happen is 899 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: that a couple of Jets playmakers are gonna have big games, 900 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: and one of them is going to be Robbie Anderson, 901 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: who is going to go over one hundred and twenty 902 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: five receiving yards and the odds are plus four twenty five. 903 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: So let's make that clear. This is not something that 904 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm necessarily expecting to happen. He has done it twice 905 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: in his entire career, so this is certainly something where 906 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: the only reason to take it is because you are 907 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: getting more than four to one on your money. But again, 908 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: the Jets offense, this is you know, to the extent 909 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: the Jets offense can quote unquote get right. This is 910 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: what they're going to do here. Without Xavian Howard, it's 911 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: going to be there's nobody who's really going to be 912 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 1: able to hang with him. You saw against the Cowboys, 913 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, I think it was a ninety two yard 914 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: touchdown catch. They he can have an explosive play at 915 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: any given time. They do have chemistry, which they showed 916 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 1: last year. And this is completely anecdotal, so it really 917 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,319 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. But you know, there were all these trade 918 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 1: rumors and you expected him to go, and you know, 919 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: you have the trade rumors with someone like Jamal Adams 920 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,760 Speaker 1: who doesn't get traded and is now really angry, really 921 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: angry at being dangled. After the trade deadline passed, Robbie 922 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: Anderson put out a great tweet where he took the 923 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 1: scene from The Wolf of Wall Street where Leonardo DiCaprio 924 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: is basically saying I'm not going anywhere. I'm not going 925 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: like a very sort of adamant thing, and the Jets 926 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 1: liked it, you know, on the Jets Twitter feed liked it. 927 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: I just feel like this is something where you know, 928 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,839 Speaker 1: a guy like Adams, you might get a little worried 929 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: about how he's going to react to this. Robbie, I 930 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: don't think so. Robbie strikes me as the type of 931 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: guy who's gonna want to say, that's right, you held me, 932 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: you did the right thing here. I think this is 933 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: just going to be a smash spot for Le'Veon Bell. 934 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a smash spot for Robbie Anderson. 935 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: So one hundred and twenty five is a big number. 936 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: As I said, he's only done it twice, but at 937 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: plus four to twenty five, that's a that's a number 938 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 1: that's value enough for me to go with it. So 939 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 1: I'll take Anderson over one hundred and twenty five receiving 940 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:41,240 Speaker 1: yards against the Dolphins. 941 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 2: I love the narrative. Take let me pile on Robbie 942 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 2: Anderson's a South Florida guy. Went to South Plantation High 943 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 2: right in Broward County, so he's a homecoming for him. 944 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: He'll have family at the game, he'll want to show out. 945 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 2: Let's go. This is you know what this is. This 946 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: is so funny. We're two just miserable Jets fans, and 947 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: despite everything we've seen this season, we are somehow optimistic 948 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 2: about I mean. 949 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: To be fair, they're playing a historically terrible team that 950 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: has no interest in winning. And even if the Dolphins 951 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,479 Speaker 1: get out ahead, they stop playing in the second half. 952 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: I mean that that is what it is. They'll just 953 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 1: be like, shoot, we're winning. We got to find a 954 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: way to screw this all up, and so you know 955 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 1: there'll be something. But I agree. This is the most 956 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 1: optimistic take on the Jets for two Jets fans that 957 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 1: have probably ever been in the history of any sports 958 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: betting show. So hopefully we'll be right for this one. 959 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 1: But you know, we've got a long way to go 960 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: before we're going to be really happy watching our team.
