Speaker 1: The numbers told the story they always do. It's wand
Speaker 1: those idiots who believe in analytics.
Speaker 2: This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander gone vis in.
Speaker 1: Good Monday morning to you Christmas Day.
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas from a Numbers game at vis D Sports,
Speaker 2: Betty Network, Visa dot Com, Visa App, Game plus, iHeartRadio,
Speaker 2: YouTube TV and of course the draft Kings that work.
Speaker 2: It's Skill Alexander and it's Kelly Bidlin live from Circa.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they let us into the big house, up to
Speaker 2: the big leagues.
Speaker 1: Cold on doing good. That was your weekend. It was
Speaker 1: It was great. It was great. It's really cold outside.
Speaker 1: I did park at the d I might have texted
Speaker 1: you about going to the Circa going to Circle today
Speaker 1: and then kind of forgot when I was rolling downtown,
Speaker 1: so I just parked over there and I walked down
Speaker 1: Fremont Street. Glorious day on Fremont Street this morning for
Speaker 1: Christmas Day. I saw you tweet it. It was very nice
Speaker 1: of you.
Speaker 2: We have to start, by the way, for those who
Speaker 2: don't know, we do guessing lines, and just because it's
Speaker 2: Christmas doesn't mean we're not doing guessing lines. We are
Speaker 2: doing guessing lines for week seventeen. The National Football League
Speaker 2: coming up in moments, But first a look at Circus Survivor.
Speaker 2: Because we are down Kelly to four. Count them, four
Speaker 2: people left in Circus Survivor. Six were on the Broncos
Speaker 2: last night. That goes by the wayside. Does the Broncos
Speaker 2: lose outright to the New England Patriots? Included in that
Speaker 2: group of six The gentleman, if I may use that word,
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if I may, the gentleman who did
Speaker 2: not want to chop. Yeah, proving once again that maybe
Speaker 2: you're not better than everybody else.
Speaker 1: It's okay. He took to the Twitter machine last night
Speaker 1: and had some choice words. What he say definitely got
Speaker 1: my money's worth. Good luck to the remaining four. You
Speaker 1: guys can now chop another tweet. How I found out
Speaker 1: about the Circa contest was when I went into set
Speaker 1: up and deposit one dollars into my Circa account. I
Speaker 1: proceeded to make five hundred thousand dollars within the first
Speaker 1: couple of weeks before my limits got reduced, so gambling
Speaker 1: at Circa was still very profitable for me. I still
Speaker 1: am hash to agg the goat well that's great. So
Speaker 1: at least he's taking it. Well, yeah, he's taking it.
Speaker 2: Well, Okay, so we're down to four, which means and
Speaker 2: again I'm going to do this off the phone because
Speaker 2: something's going with the apparently apparently my computer doesn't work
Speaker 2: at CIRCA. So right now with four left, and by
Speaker 2: the way, it does stink to lose survivor whoever you
Speaker 2: are at this point in the season, without question, it
Speaker 2: is just the worst of all betting losses, imaginable, and
Speaker 2: really heart goes out to the six who are out.
Speaker 2: Four remain. The intrinsic value of each Kelly now with
Speaker 2: that is two million, three hundred and sixteen, seven hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty dollars. And so the thing with this now
Speaker 2: is because there's this Christmas quirk, because there's a Christmas
Speaker 2: quirk with this. It is a situation where had there
Speaker 2: been different options for the remaining four, this could have
Speaker 2: gotten dicey because of the quick turnaround with what you
Speaker 2: have to pick for today, because remember today's a standalone week. Instead,
Speaker 2: nobody had Kansas City left, everybody had Philly left, So
Speaker 2: all four have Philly today. So if the Giants somehow
Speaker 2: were to win this football game, this contest would be
Speaker 2: over and would chop four ways. Instead, everybody is, you know,
Speaker 2: not only gonna be on Philly. We assume they'll win,
Speaker 2: then everybody gets to breathe after tonight, and the assumption
Speaker 2: would be that there will be a chop. But I
Speaker 2: would say that's an assumption. Do not assume, because just
Speaker 2: because they were willing to chop when that we're thirteen
Speaker 2: doesn't mean that they are now that it's clearer with four.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna talk to Greg Jones, the mistake guy,
Speaker 2: if you will, who wanted to pick Detroit on Thanksgiving
Speaker 2: it at a pick in Green Bay. He is one
Speaker 2: of the four remaining. It's La Jones are circus Master Indiana.
Speaker 2: Jet Jack's jag still remain.
Speaker 1: We did have some communication over the weekend with one
Speaker 1: of the contestants too as well. I talked to him
Speaker 1: a little bit more offline. He did say the conversations
Speaker 1: about the chop were a little bit more more exaggerated
Speaker 1: than we thought as far as how many teams had
Speaker 1: really agreed to anything. He just wanted to clear that
Speaker 1: up because he was saying his team had definitely not
Speaker 1: really agreed to anything or been invited, So don't know
Speaker 1: if he's still alive or not. Like you said, we
Speaker 1: got four rolling into today, you would expect to all
Speaker 1: be on Eagles. I know Joe Peda answering some tweets
Speaker 1: this morning, thought was kind of fascinating of how you
Speaker 1: would handle this situation if you were in it. But
Speaker 1: you know he's talking about even you know you would
Speaker 1: even consider if you knew everybody was gonna be on Philly,
Speaker 1: you'd even back. You could throw some more money on
Speaker 1: Philly today because if you lose, if they if they lose, right,
Speaker 1: you're cashing the survivor buddy. If they win, you're taking
Speaker 1: the winnings from today and then rolling into next week
Speaker 1: still alive and survivor.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be fascinating. He could, well, let's just get
Speaker 2: through today and then we'll revisit tomorrow. If you're unfamiliar
Speaker 2: with guessing lines, how this works again, I'm gonna coccoon.
Speaker 2: I don't know the lines. This exercise has gotten us
Speaker 2: tons of winners all year long on the megapot. I
Speaker 2: am thirty one, fifty teen and one. That's only three
Speaker 2: pick steep a week, But it's largely based on this
Speaker 2: show guessing lines, first instincts, and once again last week
Speaker 2: my instincts were on the three games the Dolphins, the Brownies,
Speaker 2: and today one of the three, which we'll talk about
Speaker 2: the three games to day on the Raiders. So we'll
Speaker 2: see if all three end up getting home against the
Speaker 2: number obviously one pending, but that is the exercise. Kelly
Speaker 2: then tells us who what in fact the line is,
Speaker 2: and hopefully in that exercise, week's gonna extract some value.
Speaker 2: It's really a first instinct thing, and your first instincts
Speaker 2: often your best on this.
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, a couple couple winners from me too based
Speaker 1: off of guessing lines last week. Let's hit it as
Speaker 1: we start for week seventeen of the National Football League
Speaker 1: opens Christmas. We're looking ahead a week, all right, Thursday
Speaker 1: Night football gil Jets at the dominant Cleveland Browns, all.
Speaker 2: Right, and nine Jets ten and five Brownies. The Jets
Speaker 2: yesterday somehow snatched victory away from the jaws of defeat,
Speaker 2: which snatched away from the jaws of victory against the
Speaker 2: Commodores last or yesterday, I should say, Jets second play
Speaker 2: from scrimmage, second to tenth their own twenty five howl
Speaker 2: picked by Tony Adams, set up at the Washington twenty
Speaker 2: four Jets settle for a zerline twenty five yard field goal,
Speaker 2: three to nothing.
Speaker 1: Jets two minutes into the game.
Speaker 2: Another Washington three and out Tress all right should say
Speaker 2: the first Washington three three and out Tress away punt
Speaker 2: block three plays, nine yards, sending ad Jason brownly form
Speaker 2: made out ten to nothing. Jets eleven twenty left first quarter,
Speaker 2: three and out for Washington two plays forty two yards
Speaker 2: Breeson from thirty six seventeen to nothing. Jets were just
Speaker 2: over five minutes into this ballgame. Teams trade punts twice,
Speaker 2: but on that second Jets punt Crowder Jamison Crowder who
Speaker 2: played for both of these teams at one point in
Speaker 2: his career before being on Washington right now untouched fumbles.
Speaker 2: Ashton Davis recovers that led to another Zeroline field goal,
Speaker 2: twenty to nothing. Jets nine to ten left second quarter,
Speaker 2: and after a Washington punt first and ten their own seventeen.
Speaker 2: Simion can't corral the snow casey two. Hill recovers the
Speaker 2: fumble that leads to a one play Washington drive. The
Speaker 2: first salvo from Washington in this game, Rodriguez in from
Speaker 2: twelve twenty to seven Jets six thirty eight to go.
Speaker 1: Second quarter.
Speaker 2: Then the Jets eleven plays seventy one yards pristin from
Speaker 2: two over the pylon. Beautiful play that he made, swinging
Speaker 2: his arm back. Twenty seven to seven Jets, and that
Speaker 2: was your halftime score. It was all Jets besides that
Speaker 2: one error, eighteen to five. They led in first downs
Speaker 2: two forty six to seventy six in total yards. They
Speaker 2: had the ball for over twenty minutes in the first half.
Speaker 2: Howell was five of seventeen for fifty one. Washington was
Speaker 2: zero for six on third and then you know what
Speaker 2: happened third quarter into the third quarter. Now Washington second
Speaker 2: and ten at their own twenty twenty nine. Howell picked
Speaker 2: by Quincy Williams, Jets second and goal of the six,
Speaker 2: knocking at the door up twenty. Here's where the game turned.
Speaker 2: Simmeion picked by Cody Barton, who was a tackle away
Speaker 2: from housing it instead Bersett in the ballgame for Washington
Speaker 2: sixth plays, twenty nine yards percent. It's a Logan Thomas
Speaker 2: for fifteen twenty seven to fourteen. Late third quarter after
Speaker 2: Jets punt Washington nine plays seventy seven yards berset to
Speaker 2: McLaurin twenty nine, the big one. Rodriguez in for one
Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty one, Jets nine to twenty seven
Speaker 2: to go. Then after a Jets punt, Washington six plays
Speaker 2: sixty three yards and improbably Washington led this game. Gibson
Speaker 2: in from two to twenty eight twenty seven Skins four
Speaker 2: fifty two to go. After Jets punt Washington three and out.
Speaker 2: Jets take over down one at their own thirty three
Speaker 2: with one forty one to go, one time out. They
Speaker 2: get it to the Washington thirty six zero line, fifty
Speaker 2: four yard field goal good thirty twenty eight. Jets win.
Speaker 2: No pitchy pitchy woo woo from Washington. Simmey in twenty
Speaker 2: seven to forty nine for two seventeen in victory, Breeshall
Speaker 2: twenty for ninety five, two touchdowns on the ground, twelve
Speaker 2: for ninety six catching the football. They out game Washington
Speaker 2: three eighty one to two forty five, but fourteen penalties
Speaker 2: for one fifty for the Jets. Anyway, they win. And
Speaker 2: then there's Cleveland. Cleveland Browns get it done in a
Speaker 2: big way. First play from scrimmage against Houston, Flacco to
Speaker 2: Cooper from fifty three. Three plays later four in from
Speaker 2: four seven to nothing, Cleveland thirteen eighteen left the first quarter. Later,
Speaker 2: Cleveland three plays ninety yards Flacco to Cooper from seventy
Speaker 2: five out, fourteen to nothing, Cleveland, twelve oh four left.
Speaker 2: Second quarter. Cleveland kicks off to Damian Piers eighty eight
Speaker 2: yards of the hiszy fourteen to seven Cleveland as Houston
Speaker 2: wakes up at least on special teams eleven fifty one
Speaker 2: left in the second quarter. Dustin Hopkins, I think he
Speaker 2: hurt the hamstring on that play. Excuse me, I just
Speaker 2: spat on you. Apologize. After Cleveland three and out, Houston
Speaker 2: punt Cleveland fifty yards. Six plays Flaccot and Joku from
Speaker 2: twenty one man as he loved a Joku twenty to seven.
Speaker 2: And now because Hopkins is out with the hamstring injury,
Speaker 2: they apparently like the punter can't kick. This is Matt
Speaker 2: Brown thing. Punter can't kick a field goal, so they'd
Speaker 2: never tried anything with a kicker of the rest of
Speaker 2: the game. Dtr run from two twenty two to seven
Speaker 2: Cleveland four to sixteen left in the second quarter after
Speaker 2: Houston three and out Cleveland second I dated their own
Speaker 2: thirty six. Flacco picked downfield by DeAndre Houston Carson Houston
Speaker 2: six plays later, first and tend their own forty one.
Speaker 2: Canam picked by Jeremiah Jeremiah Owosu Karramaa twenty three seconds
Speaker 2: left in the second quarter. Cleveland set up in the
Speaker 2: Houston forty one. They get to the Houston eighteen with
Speaker 2: fifteen seconds left, but incomplete. Incomplete, then with five seconds
Speaker 2: left instead of a field goal, because Coppins is Hopkins
Speaker 2: is her, no one can kick a chip shot. Flaco
Speaker 2: picked by Derek Stingley Junior again thanks for drafting of
Speaker 2: being drafted third in the draft. Halftime Flacco twelve for
Speaker 2: twenty two for two forty six in the first half.
Speaker 2: Cooper had won seventy three of them. Third quarter, after
Speaker 2: Houston punt, Cleveland eighteen play ninety four yard drive, including
Speaker 2: a fourth and eight conversion of Cooper for thirteen at
Speaker 2: the Houston thirty. Flaco to Cooper for seven twenty eight
Speaker 2: to seven. Cleveland two point conversion fails on a fourd
Speaker 2: run two thirty five left. Third quarter, Houston third and
Speaker 2: eight from their own twenty three. Keenom picked by darn Harmon,
Speaker 2: won thirty seven left and then Cleveland converted a fourth
Speaker 2: and five of the Houston twenty five because again no kicker.
Speaker 2: Flack Goot ceda Tillman for seven, fourth and six of
Speaker 2: the Houston thirteen, Flacco to Amari for eleven. Hunt then
Speaker 2: from one Flacco to Amari for two thirty six to
Speaker 2: seven Cleveland. Two cosmetic touchdowns later, you had your final
Speaker 2: thirty six twenty two. Flacco threw for three sixty eight
Speaker 2: Cooper caught two sixty five of them, franchise records, seventeenth
Speaker 2: biggest receiving yards day in the history of the National
Speaker 2: Football League. Cleveland's at home against the Jets. I will
Speaker 2: say the Brownies by six.
Speaker 1: It is opened about six. We are up to seven.
Speaker 1: Cleveland's seven now against the Jets. Okay, I'll take that.
Speaker 1: It makes sense. No play for me, but I understand. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's intriguing to me. It was intriguing at six with
Speaker 1: the Browns. That would keep in mind, the Browns, as
Speaker 1: good as they've been at times this year, we haven't
Speaker 1: really seen them lay big numbers like this, And with this,
Speaker 1: you know you still got Joe Flacco in there. I'm
Speaker 1: not ready to say, hey, this guy's leading you to
Speaker 1: a super Bowl yet, so laying a full touchdown kind
Speaker 1: of against anybody feels lofty for this team. But I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: Cleveland inhabiting the number one wild card position in the
Speaker 2: AFC and Joe Flacco down to four to one, four
Speaker 2: to one to win comeback Player of the Year, DeMar
Speaker 2: Hamlin rains minus four dollars. There's no way we can
Speaker 2: know who will actually be that. What these voters are

Speaker 2: so much more than a producer. Kelly wearing his festive
Speaker 2: Santa hat.
Speaker 1: That's right.

Speaker 1: Not what you wanted, I don't think.
Speaker 2: But I'm glad you're here. Glad you're here. Glad What
Speaker 2: I said about Joe Flacco before the break, what I
Speaker 2: meant by there's no way to know. And again without
Speaker 2: just belaboring the point with comeback Player of the year there.
Speaker 2: It is so nebulous, right, it is so vague to
Speaker 2: know what any of the fifty voters are thinking. We
Speaker 2: had one Aaron shots on a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 2: per him, right, his thing is he's not voting for Hamlin.
Speaker 2: He's going to vote for somebody who earned it on
Speaker 2: the field, regardless of the circumstance or the basis of
Speaker 2: that comeback. Now, you can argue with that, and you
Speaker 2: could say that's callous, you could say whatever. But that's
Speaker 2: just the mind of one of fifty voters. There's no
Speaker 2: way to know what this market actually is. What it
Speaker 2: is per DraftKings is tomorrow Hamlin minus four to twenty
Speaker 2: and Joe Flacco four to one. By the way, Baker
Speaker 2: Mayfield is the only other person in single digits at
Speaker 2: eight to one.
Speaker 1: But truly, what is it?
Speaker 2: You could flip a coin right now for me between
Speaker 2: Flacco and Hamlin, because if you really said to me,
Speaker 2: who in your heart of hearts does your instinct tell
Speaker 2: you people will vote for right now, it might be Flacco.
Speaker 1: But there's no way to know I this, I mean
Speaker 1: you know that you know this market's just a continuingly
Speaker 1: upsetting to me. I don't understand how Flacco has shorter
Speaker 1: odds than Baker Mayfield. Flacco's come in here and done
Speaker 1: it for a few weeks. Baker Mayfield has done this
Speaker 1: all season long and has in Tampa Bay Buccaneers team
Speaker 1: that we expected not much from in first place in
Speaker 1: the NFC South. I don't really understand how Flacco's odds
Speaker 1: or Jordan, but this goes back to us comparing comparing
Speaker 1: injuries versus time off, versus crappy play versus.
Speaker 2: Because he's thirty eight and he's got a Flacco face, Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's it's impressive to people. Yeah, old dudes throwing it out,
Speaker 2: good friend, Uh Flacco more more. Let me ask you
Speaker 2: this way, Flacco closer to comeback player of the year
Speaker 2: in your opinion, or Stefanski to the coach.
Speaker 1: Of the year. Get a coach of the year and
Speaker 1: the I mean the OD just kind of reflect that now.
Speaker 1: But what what Stefanski has done. We knew this defense
Speaker 1: was gonna be great, but with all these quarterbacks coming
Speaker 1: through and you've got ten wins on the season in
Speaker 1: the tough AFC, Stefanski's looking pretty good right now. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know, because I think now because the the
Speaker 2: Damico Ryans and Shane Steichen's of the world have just
Speaker 2: taken one step back and they still could get there.
Speaker 2: Right if either team makes the playoffs and they're both
Speaker 2: they're both still tied with the Jaguars atop the AFC South,
Speaker 2: are they?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did you know that Jaguars bets? I think that it
Speaker 2: shifts over to the Campbell Shanahan group, not to not
Speaker 2: to Stefanski.
Speaker 1: I could be wrong. I mean I would give everything
Speaker 1: to the Niners right now. I mean it'd be m
Speaker 1: VP Offensive Player of the your end, coach of the year.
Speaker 1: But that's just me. Yeah, maybe I'll change after today.
Speaker 2: Campbell's still the short in.
Speaker 1: That, oh, the short shot.
Speaker 2: All right, what do you got next?
Speaker 1: All right? We have Saturday Night, So Thursday night, Jets,
Speaker 1: Brown Saturday Night. Only one game on Saturday this week
Speaker 1: Lions at Cowboys.
Speaker 2: One Saturday game. We go to one Saturday game Detroit,
Speaker 2: the eleven and four NFC North champion Detroit Lions against
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys, the ten and five Cowboys. The Lions
Speaker 2: win a division for the first time in thirty years
Speaker 2: nineteen hundred and ninety and three. Good on Dan Campbell
Speaker 2: in the Lions. They beat Minnesota yesterday in a game
Speaker 2: that was a roller coaster. Detroit started out fourteen play
Speaker 2: seventy five yard drive, Montgomery in from one seven to
Speaker 2: zhing Detroit seven to thirteen left first quarter, and then
Speaker 2: Minnesota went nine plays seventy five yards. Mullins to Josh
Speaker 2: Oliver for thirty three to start the drive, Chy Chandler
Speaker 2: ty Chandler in from two to end at seven to
Speaker 2: seven late first quarter. Then Detroit first and tenth their
Speaker 2: own thirty six Gibbs tackled by Andrew Biamy fumbles. Ivan
Speaker 2: Pace recovers Minnesota fourth and two of the Detroit forty,
Speaker 2: though they give it right back as mulleins first of
Speaker 2: four picks pick by Brian Branch. The Nick Mullens experience
Speaker 2: began as it always is. Teams trade three and ouns.
Speaker 2: Detroit matriculate settle for a badgely thirty seven yard field,
Speaker 2: though Michael Bagley beck ten to seven Detroit after a
Speaker 2: Minnesota strip sack scoop and score was nullified with Goff's
Speaker 2: hand ruled moving forward. That's five h five left to
Speaker 2: the second quarter. Then Minnesota third and seven at their
Speaker 2: own eighteen. Mullins picked by Kirby Joseph, who celebrates on
Speaker 2: his twenty two yard return while running the ball downfield,
Speaker 2: sets up the lines with a short field Gibbs fourteen
Speaker 2: yard touchdown run seventeen to seven Lions, one forty eight
Speaker 2: left second quarter, Minnesota sixth play seventy five yards, Mullens
Speaker 2: to Jefferson for twenty two, twenty nine and twenty six
Speaker 2: for the touchdown. How good is justin Jefferson seventeen fourteen Detroit.
Speaker 2: That would be a score at the half. Minnesota did
Speaker 2: the double dip here, so they got at five plays
Speaker 2: eighty one yards to begin the second half. Mullens to
Speaker 2: Osborne for forty seven. That sets up Mullens to Osborne
Speaker 2: for six twenty one to seventeen Vikings. They take the
Speaker 2: lead eleven to fifty six left third quarter, and then
Speaker 2: Detroit comes back thirteen play, seventy five yard drive. They
Speaker 2: convert two fourth and ones along the way, go off
Speaker 2: to Saint Brown for one twenty three twenty one Detroit.
Speaker 2: Badgley's pat was blocked four thirty eight left third quarter.
Speaker 2: You thought maybe that'll come back to haunt them, But
Speaker 2: after a Minnesota three and out Detroit fourteen plays eighty
Speaker 2: three yards gives in from three thirty to twenty one
Speaker 2: Lions eleven h seven left, Minnesota third and eighteen at
Speaker 2: their own seventeen. Mullins picked by Kirby Joseph again nine
Speaker 2: fifty two to go after Detroit three and out, though
Speaker 2: Minnesota gets a Joseph twenty six yard field goal to
Speaker 2: cut the lead to six thirty to twenty four, five
Speaker 2: nineteen to go. Then after Detroit punt, Minnesota takes over
Speaker 2: down six with two twenty three to go at their
Speaker 2: own twelve third and twenty seven at their own sixteen
Speaker 2: Mullens to Jefferson for twenty eight what a catch, amazing catch.
Speaker 2: Two plays later to Brandon Palell for twenty six, and
Speaker 2: with fifty eight seconds to go at the Detroit thirty,
Speaker 2: Minnesota was in business, but Mullins then throws an absolute
Speaker 2: duck to what would have been a completion of Jefferson
Speaker 2: instead picked by if if Ayatsu melifan Wu, who steps
Speaker 2: in front of Jefferson. Ball game thirty to twenty four,
Speaker 2: Detroit again, first Division title for the Lions in thirty years,
Speaker 2: six road wins, tying their franchise record golf threw for
Speaker 2: two fifty seven, Gibbs fifteen for eighty and two touchdowns
Speaker 2: on the ground, Saint Brown twelve for one, Zho six
Speaker 2: at a touchdown in the receiving game, plus three and
Speaker 2: turnovers the Lions were that'll do it. That led to
Speaker 2: plus seven net Detroit points, which was the margin of victory,
Speaker 2: and of course the game clincher at the end. And
Speaker 2: then there's Dallas Game of the Day yesterday, Game of
Speaker 2: the Day yesterday against the Miami Dolphins. I had the
Speaker 2: Dolphins in this one and they got there, but boy
Speaker 2: was it close. Opening drive for Dallas fifteen plays fifteen,
Speaker 2: including fourth and one at the Miami thirty, Dak to
Speaker 2: Ferguson for nineteen. But three plays later, first and goal
Speaker 2: from the one, Dak fumbles on the handoff to Hunter Lepke,
Speaker 2: and that would set the tone. Brandon Jones recover seven
Speaker 2: to seventeen left in the first quarter. Miami second play,
Speaker 2: next drive two out of Tyreek deep dropped would have
Speaker 2: been a ninety seven yard touchdown pass Instead, next play
Speaker 2: two at a waddle for a mere fifty that led
Speaker 2: to a Sanders fifty seven yard field goal three to nothing. Dolphins.
Speaker 1: Jason Sanders was the MVP of this game. Did a
Speaker 1: pretty good day.
Speaker 2: Pretty good Dallas three plays seventy five yards, book ended
Speaker 2: by Dak to Lamb for twenty two to start, Dak
Speaker 2: to Lamb for forty nine touchdown mostly Yak seven to
Speaker 2: three Cowboys, one thirty left first quarter, Miami fourth and
Speaker 2: goal to five. They esdue the chip shot field goal.
Speaker 2: They go for it and fail and it remained seven
Speaker 2: to three Dallas eleven oh two left in the second quarter.
Speaker 2: I was mad at the time that they didn't take
Speaker 2: the points. I mean, I would have wanted to take
Speaker 2: the points there anyways, but then the play.
Speaker 1: Call was terrible on top of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah that as well. Dallas sho should have been a
Speaker 2: three and out, but bailed out by questionable roughing the
Speaker 2: passer penalty on Christian Wilkins. Forced to punt three plays later. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Sanders would kick a fifty two yard field goal to
Speaker 2: cut it to seven and six with four thirty one
Speaker 2: left in the second quarter, Dallas three and out. Miami
Speaker 2: gets into the Dallas nine with twenty six seconds left
Speaker 2: in the half, wasted last time out as the play
Speaker 2: clock bled. That wouldn't come back to haunt them, though,
Speaker 2: after a roughing the passer call on Parsons two at
Speaker 2: a moster from four out touchdown, Miami takes the lead
Speaker 2: thirteen to seventeen, seventeen seconds left in the half. That
Speaker 2: would be the halftime score eighty six. In the first half,
Speaker 2: dak won twenty one. Third quarter Miami punts, then Dallas
Speaker 2: three and out after Jake Bailey fifty eight yard punt
Speaker 2: pinned Dallas at the two and in Miami after failing
Speaker 2: to give avert a third and one Sanders fifty four
Speaker 2: yard field goals sixteen to seven, Dolphins eight to fifty
Speaker 2: nine left in the third quarter. This was one of
Speaker 2: these games where you thought, well, these settling for field goals,
Speaker 2: it's gonna come back to haunt.
Speaker 1: Yep I said that on the area.
Speaker 2: At least in Miami's case, I mean they're drilling it
Speaker 2: from beyond fifty Dallas Dak to Jalen Tolbert for forty five.
Speaker 2: That sets up an Aubrey forty three yard field goal
Speaker 2: to cut it to sixteen to ten, five twenty eight
Speaker 2: left in the third quarter. By the way, at this point,
Speaker 2: Aubrey's thirty two for thirty two on the season.
Speaker 1: That dude still has a missed one incorrect.

Speaker 2: let's do one more? What we got?
Speaker 1: All right? Next up early window on Sunday, Patriots and
Speaker 1: Bills again.
Speaker 2: The point of all this is to search for value
Speaker 2: and relive what happened yesterday New England at Buffalo again.
Speaker 2: Back to survivor four remaining survivor contestants four over two
Speaker 2: million dollars now for each of them. Everybody has Philly tonight,
Speaker 2: so we'll get through the Christmas Day, which is its
Speaker 2: own standalone week one way or the other. Based on
Speaker 2: the Patriots twenty six to twenty three upset win over
Speaker 2: the Broncos yesterday that knocked out six of the remaining ten,
Speaker 2: and so that is why we were down to four.
Speaker 2: By the way, this time last year, we had exactly
Speaker 2: four after if you will, sixteen a remember of the
Speaker 2: of the of the circus survivor week's week, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Speaker 1: Are little quirks, and then three after.
Speaker 2: After remember Christmas, the Christmas quirk preceded the Sunday last year,
Speaker 2: So after the Christmas quirk we had four, and then
Speaker 2: after the Sunday we end up with three. And those three.
Speaker 1: Chopped and those three chopped.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they set up a deal where they chopped like
Speaker 2: a million each and they played for the rest.
Speaker 1: When's the last time we've gotten further than we? Like? Have?
Speaker 1: We played this out till the end the first year,
Speaker 1: first year, okay, first year, we played it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we like I was.
Speaker 1: Part of ye we were all here had I almost
Speaker 1: got it. I can't remember by millions riding down the
Speaker 1: line did we play that out?
Speaker 2: All I remember is I had a seventeen point favorite
Speaker 2: a few weeks before that that lost at home.
Speaker 1: Thanks Jared Goff and the Rams. All right, what's next?
Speaker 2: Oh well, this is this is why we're talking about
Speaker 2: Survivor's Patriots and Bills. So the Patriots are now four
Speaker 2: and eleven. By the way, the Patriots now end up
Speaker 2: with the fourth pick in the National Football League Draft
Speaker 2: currently at With this win, Washington is the beneficiary. They
Speaker 2: move up to the third pick. After the Patriots upset win.
Speaker 2: They're four and eleven. Buffaloes nine and six.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: New England first played from scrimmage last night. Zappie on pressure,
Speaker 2: he fumbles immediately. Denver set up at the New England six.
Speaker 2: But guess what, four and out. They couldn't punch it in.
Speaker 2: Javonte for two, Javonte for two incomplete, and then Javante
Speaker 2: for one after he trips over his own guy thirteen
Speaker 2: eighteen left in the first quarter. That's within the first
Speaker 2: two minutes of this game. New England three and out,
Speaker 2: Denver three and out in New England three and now
Speaker 2: then Marvin Mims Junior fifty two yard punt return sets
Speaker 2: up a short twenty five yard field five plays Javante
Speaker 2: in from five to seven to nothing, Broncos five to
Speaker 2: fifteen left in the first quarter, and for those of
Speaker 2: us who had the Patriots plus, the points were like,
Speaker 2: oh man, come on, come on, Pats. Ryland thirty three
Speaker 2: yard field goal, seven to three, Denver thirteen thirty left.
Speaker 2: Second quarter, then Denver first and the New England thirty
Speaker 2: eight Wilson to Williams hit by Jelani Tavaii fumbles recovered
Speaker 2: by Jeremiah Farms Junior. Denver got hosed on that. It
Speaker 2: was totally recovered by the Broncos. But they couldn't. They
Speaker 2: couldn't have where they guess they didn't. They feel they
Speaker 2: had enough evidence to overturn that. Yeah, looked to me
Speaker 2: like he felt right on it. So the play was upheld.
Speaker 2: Doesn't matter. New England went three and out. Denver punts
Speaker 2: New England Ryland forty seven yard field goal try way
Speaker 2: wide right. Just terrible poortent of things to come thirty
Speaker 2: three seconds left in the second quarter, and then Lutz
Speaker 2: returns the favor with a fifty seven yarder, though, mind you,
Speaker 2: that was wide left seven to three Broncos at the half,
Speaker 2: and you're thinking, well, this game's a born burner. That's
Speaker 2: exactly what we thought it would be. Denver three and
Speaker 2: out to start the third quarter. New England then goes crazy,
Speaker 2: and by that I mean it's because it's New England.
Speaker 2: Five plays seventy yards Zappi to to Mario Douglas for
Speaker 2: forty one, to Douglas for thirteen, two plays later to
Speaker 2: Zeke for fifteen. Two plays after that into the end
Speaker 2: zone nine to seven New England. Ryland dinks the pat
Speaker 2: YEP nine. You're like, this guy can't make anything.
Speaker 1: Again.
Speaker 2: Fifty in Denver punt New England three and out. Denver
Speaker 2: three and out. New England starts at the Denver forty
Speaker 2: two second and ten Zappy to Parker for thirty. Then
Speaker 2: three plays later, third and nine at the Denver eleven,
Speaker 2: Zappie to the kasiki in the back of the end
Speaker 2: zone from eleven out, sixteen to seven Patriots one thirty
Speaker 2: four left third quarter. Denver at this point in the
Speaker 2: second halfened minus seven yards. They would finis it's the
Speaker 2: third quarter with minus fifteen yards in that quarter alone.
Speaker 2: Ensuing kickoff, Marvin Mims Junior muffs it, then recovers, then
Speaker 2: hit by Marte Moppu. He fumbles it, recovered by Cody
Speaker 2: Davis scoop and score from the one, twenty three to
Speaker 2: seven New England.
Speaker 1: It's a blowout. We do a same game parlay segment
Speaker 1: on Live Bet Sunday.
Speaker 5: Febian befe a thirty to one shot because of that touchdown.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, wow, what was the bet that he got the.
Speaker 1: Same game parlay? He had three legs but he tied
Speaker 1: in a Pats defensive her special teams touch Wow.
Speaker 2: One twenty eight left in the third quarter. They're up
Speaker 2: sixteen first fourteen games. New England had twenty six third
Speaker 2: quarter points last night. They had twenty in the frame.
Speaker 2: Denver three and out. Wilson sacked, He fumbles, but Denver recovers,
Speaker 2: which is huge. Ensuing punt, New England muffs the pump
Speaker 2: but recover themselves. This is just a comedy show at
Speaker 2: this point. Three and out. Anyway, Denver's down sixteen nine
Speaker 2: plays eighty three yards, Wilson and Mims Junior for forty seven.
Speaker 2: The big chunk, by the way that Mims laid out
Speaker 2: for and Belichick challenge, I have no idea how that
Speaker 2: was a catch none the fumble that didn't get reversed,
Speaker 2: and then that they'll get clearly moved when he hit
Speaker 2: the ground.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, maybe not. Three blays later, Wilson and Lucas
Speaker 2: crowl from three out. Wilson Brandon Johnson for two cuts
Speaker 2: the lead in half twenty three fifteen New England eight
Speaker 2: thirty three, fourth quarter eight thirty three remains New England
Speaker 2: three and out. Denver takes over at their own twenty
Speaker 2: two is six thirty three to go, less Rye, less
Speaker 2: rye bread everybody eleven plays seventy three yards first and
Speaker 2: tenth of New England forty Wilson deep looked like it
Speaker 2: was gonna get picked in the end zone. Sean Wade
Speaker 2: couldn't secure it. Two blays later, Wilson and Brandon Johnson
Speaker 2: for twenty one, then two point conversion of Javonte twenty three,
Speaker 2: twenty three, two point fifty three to go. Is this
Speaker 2: really happening?
Speaker 1: Of course it is. It's the Patriots. It's god awful, and.
Speaker 2: The whole time everybody's watching this through the survivor players
Speaker 2: so it's like, oh my god, are they gonna survive
Speaker 2: on this? New England three and out? Denver starts at
Speaker 2: their own thirty nine one forty two left in the
Speaker 2: fourth quarter, but they go three and out two Who
Speaker 2: New England gets the ball back. Belichick wants to go
Speaker 2: to overtime, Peyton won't let him. Calls timeouts up to
Speaker 2: the first two Pats runs. You know what happens on
Speaker 2: third down, Zappy says, I got your timeouts, Sean Payton,
Speaker 2: and all your comments you made before the season. How
Speaker 2: about some karma, Zappi to Parker for twenty seven, then
Speaker 2: a zeke for five to get SICKI for four, sets
Speaker 2: up Ryland for fifty six. The guy who missed the
Speaker 2: field goal earlier in the PA TA good twenty six
Speaker 2: twenty three. Patriots win it, Love.
Speaker 1: It, The Life of a kicker, The Life of a kicker.
Speaker 2: Again, Sorry to the six survivors. I had the Patriots
Speaker 2: plus the points. I didn't need to win it. But anyway,
Speaker 2: it's fun to watch through Buffalo.
Speaker 1: We didn't talk. It was one of those games, By
Speaker 1: the way, was that game not absolute trash for like
Speaker 1: half of it? And then like somehow turned into like
Speaker 1: a good game because the Broncos like came back. You know,
Speaker 1: it made that comeback. Buffalo.
Speaker 2: By the way, we didn't talk about this because it
Speaker 2: was on Saturday, but they they end up squeaking by
Speaker 2: the Chargers. It was a three to zing game. The
Speaker 2: Chargers JK. Scott punt, Deontay Harry fumbled it. Amen Agbang
Speaker 2: Bimigo covers set up at the Buffalo twenty seven four
Speaker 2: plays later, stick in from one. It was ten to nothing.
Speaker 2: Sharge thirteen forty nine left. Second quarter. Buffalo punted again,
Speaker 2: Charges three and out Buffalo one play fifty seven yards
Speaker 2: Allen to Davis touchdown to cut it to ten to seven.
Speaker 2: Nineoh two left in the second quarter. That's when everybody
Speaker 2: started like money lining the bills on that drive. That
Speaker 2: worked out for everybody. Charges three and out Buffalo eight
Speaker 2: play sixty three yards, took three fifty one Allen in
Speaker 2: from two. It was fourteen to ten Buffalo. Late second quarter.
Speaker 2: That would be the halftime scoring. You figured at that
Speaker 2: point Buffalo was just gonna roll after, you know, they
Speaker 2: spotted the Charges a ten to nothing lead.
Speaker 1: Third quarter, Chargers punt.
Speaker 2: Buffalo second and eight at their own twelve, Allen picked
Speaker 2: by a low high Gilman that led to a Dicker.
Speaker 2: The kicker forty yard field goal cut it to fourteen
Speaker 2: to thirteen.
Speaker 1: Buffalo.
Speaker 2: Buffalo did have a ten play seventy five yard drive
Speaker 2: Allen in from one put him up twenty one to thirteen.
Speaker 2: Late third quarter. Dicker then cut it with to a
Speaker 2: twenty one to sixteen lead with a forty seven yard
Speaker 2: field goal, and then after another Buffalo three and out,
Speaker 2: a Dicker forty five yard field goal made it twenty
Speaker 2: one to nineteen Buffalo seven nineteen to go, and then
Speaker 2: Buffalo first and ten at their own twenty five James Cook,
Speaker 2: tackled by.
Speaker 1: Gilman fumbles, Nick Williams recovers.
Speaker 2: Chargers do go three it out, but they do get
Speaker 2: a Dicker fifty three yard field goal, and the Los
Speaker 2: Angeles Chargers, after just not playing at all for Brandon
Speaker 2: Staley the week before, are leading the Buffalo Bills twenty
Speaker 2: two to twenty one with five twenty six to go.
Speaker 2: What happened to all this? Buffalo the team you wanted
Speaker 2: to fear in the postseason, Well, Buffalo's got your fear.
Speaker 2: Third and fourth the Chargers twenty eight. Alan Is Shakir
Speaker 2: for fifteen looked like he had scored, but the rule touchdown.
Speaker 2: That's a better outcome for Buffalo. Actually, to twenty nine
Speaker 2: to go results in a dicker go ahead twenty nine
Speaker 2: yard field goal. Excuse me, not a dicker but a
Speaker 2: bass twenty four yard field goal. Twenty four to twenty two.
Speaker 2: Buffalo twenty eight seconds to go. After a squib kick,
Speaker 2: they take over at their own thirty. Stick would immediately
Speaker 2: get sacked and that was pretty much hit. Buffalo hangs
Speaker 2: on for the victory. And I will say against New England,
Speaker 2: which had their moment here against Denver, Buffalo is gonna
Speaker 2: be a ten point favorite in.
Speaker 1: This Buffalo bills out to eleven and a half point favorites.
Speaker 1: Now in this game, I can dig it. I can
Speaker 1: dig it. All right. Those are three games we're gonna
Speaker 1: get to like five next. Yeah, you're going back to
Speaker 1: the well with the Patriots this week. No, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't think this is an easy pass game for me.
Speaker 2: This week I felt there was way too many points
Speaker 2: at Denver. It turned out to be I don't. I
Speaker 2: do not feel that way about this. Took my shot
Speaker 2: with the Pats not doing it twice yeah, you got home.
Speaker 2: It's a whole bunch of games to get to on
Speaker 2: the other side, numbers game. Recently, sports betting Network Skill

Speaker 2: from one seven to Zing Colts, but then Atlanta came
Speaker 2: right back five play seventy five yards Heineke to Pitts.
Speaker 2: They rediscovered Pits for twenty four tie ball game seven
Speaker 2: to seven. Halfway through the first teams traded punts that
Speaker 2: Indianapols punted Atlanta three and out Indianapolis punt. It was
Speaker 2: on and on, and then it was a field goal
Speaker 2: fest from Young Hey cou coup twenty three yard or
Speaker 2: ten to seven Atlanta after in Indianapolis three and out
Speaker 2: coup from forty seven thirteen to seven Atlanta the half.
Speaker 2: Third quarter Atlanta eight play seventy five yards. Al jeer
Speaker 2: in from thirty one twenty to seven Falcons eleven thirteen

Speaker 2: Indianapolis got stopped on downs fourth and five at the
Speaker 2: Atlanta thirty eight Minshew and completed and tended for DJ Montgomery.
Speaker 2: Atlanta would get three and out, but then Indianapolis third
Speaker 2: and nine at their own seventeen Minshe would get picked
Speaker 2: by Jesse Bates that led to a coup thirty five
Speaker 2: yard field goal twenty six to ten. After another four
Speaker 2: and out where they got stopped on downs where the
Speaker 2: Colts coup won more field goal, effectively ending at twenty
Speaker 2: nine to ten, Heinik He threw for two to twenty
Speaker 2: nine in victory beijon twelve for seventy two on the
Speaker 2: ground seven catches for fifty they outgained the Saints. Excuse me,
Speaker 2: they gained the Occults rather four h six to two
Speaker 2: sixty two and then the Bears after the team straded
Speaker 2: punts in the Bears game, Chicago seventy four yards on
Speaker 2: six plays fields to Cole Comet for fifty three to
Speaker 2: start fields in from three for the score seven to nothing. Chicago.
Speaker 2: Arizona would punch. Chicago would then go eleven plays ninety
Speaker 2: yards Khalil Herbert in from eleven to fourteen to nothing.
Speaker 2: Bears early second quarter Arizona three and out. Then Chicago
Speaker 2: fifty four yards on eight plays fields to Marcedes Lewis,
Speaker 2: Well year in the city is Lewis? What year is this?
Speaker 2: From one out, twenty one to nothing Chicago. Chicago will
Speaker 2: lead it twenty one to seven. After a seventy five
Speaker 2: yard Arizona drive at the half, Raider would get a
Speaker 2: field goal fifty five yard of from Prader. That's his
Speaker 2: eightieth kick of fifty yards or more in his career
Speaker 2: of the record, that would cut it to twenty one
Speaker 2: to ten. Chicago would answer with a field goal to
Speaker 2: make it twenty four to ten Santos from forty nine,
Speaker 2: and then really it was cosmetic from there, even though
Speaker 2: at one point I shouldn't say that Arizona got an
Speaker 2: eight place eighty drive Kyler to Dortch for thirty eight.
Speaker 2: What an amazing run after the catch by him to
Speaker 2: the house. It was twenty four to sixteen. The two
Speaker 2: point conversion failed six thirty seven to go, and they
Speaker 2: would get the ball back with all three timeouts. Arizona
Speaker 2: would but fourth and six from their own twenty seven.
Speaker 2: They decided to go for it incomplete and that effectively
Speaker 2: ended it when Santos would cash into twenty nine yard
Speaker 2: field well twenty seven to sixteen. Bears fields fifteen to
Speaker 2: twenty seven for one to seventy nine carries for ninety
Speaker 2: seven and a touch on the ground. Herbert got a
Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve in a touch on the ground
Speaker 2: as well comet one oh seven in the passing game.
Speaker 2: Before he left the game. I will say the Chicago
Speaker 2: Bears by an even.
Speaker 1: Three ding ding Ding Bears three at DraftKings in most
Speaker 1: places right now two and a half actually at circa
Speaker 1: the low point in the market moving on early windows
Speaker 1: Sunday Raiders at Colts.
Speaker 2: Let me just say this about the Bears. To me,
Speaker 2: there's no question they roll with Justin Fields. Do not
Speaker 2: draft another quarterback? Yeah, you know what makes plays that
Speaker 2: no one else can make.
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this way too much recently. I
Speaker 1: completely agree, and I've kind of been that guy in
Speaker 1: that camp when you just go back and look at
Speaker 1: his overall record, though it's tough, and I understand that
Speaker 1: says a lot about more about the team and the
Speaker 1: pieces around him.
Speaker 2: The dude's got eight wins in his NFL if. By
Speaker 2: the way, I'm a fan of Washington. I would take
Speaker 2: Justin Fields tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Oh of course. Yeah, yeah, Like you gotta like hitting me, Like,
Speaker 1: if they decide to move on, it's because they must
Speaker 1: see a high upside in the NFL draft and they're
Speaker 1: gonna get They're gonna get a fair amount for Justin Fields.
Speaker 1: I do believe that, all right.
Speaker 2: What you say was next Raiders and Goals six and eight,
Speaker 2: Raiders eight and seven, Colts. We just talked about the Colts.
Speaker 2: Minshew twenty thirty seven for two to oh one outgained
Speaker 2: by Atlanta. The Colts were four h six to two
Speaker 2: sixty two. We'll talk about the Raiders a bit later
Speaker 2: because they play today. Colts by three, I'll say to
Speaker 2: even three here as well. This one is three, I
Speaker 2: believe right on the dot. Yet three on this one
Speaker 2: as well, and Colts still have a shot to make
Speaker 2: the postseason. We'll get in all the playoff implications tomorrow
Speaker 2: on the show next Early Window Rams at Giants, Rams
Speaker 2: coming off the thirdday night whin. We already talked about
Speaker 2: that on Friday. They're eight and seven. They are in
Speaker 2: on the inside looking out of the NFC playoff picture,
Speaker 2: if you will, at the Giants, who again play the
Speaker 2: Eagles today. The eight and seven Rams at the five
Speaker 2: and nine Giants, so sight unseen on the Giants here,
Speaker 2: I'll say the Rams by six on the road or
Speaker 2: on the road, just as a placeholder.
Speaker 1: Ram six and a half a point favorites right now
Speaker 1: on the road, which is pretty accurate. I don't like
Speaker 1: anything yet.
Speaker 2: Cardinals at Eagles Early Window on Sunday. Eagles, of course
Speaker 2: play today. They host the Giants up to a fourteen
Speaker 2: point favorite. Here at circa I will say the Eagles Kyler,
Speaker 2: by the way, was twenty four thirty eight for two
Speaker 2: thirty in defeat against the Bears yesterday Eagles by seven
Speaker 2: and a hook.
Speaker 1: Against the Cardinals. Must be must be way higher. Twelve
Speaker 1: twelve and a half? Oh, okay, you gonna bite on
Speaker 1: the fightcy Cardinals. Cardinals will still a fight.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you if the if the Eagles, let's
Speaker 2: say the Eagles have no injuries today, it's twelve and
Speaker 2: a half.
Speaker 1: That's ten. Okay, Yeah, I think it makes sense, though,
Speaker 1: You're like, you're talking about what two points better? What
Speaker 1: the Giants are?
Speaker 2: Yeah, clearly short guests sucked, But I'd still consider twelve.
Speaker 1: And a half there, Yeah, I think I would.
Speaker 2: Unless you believe in the hole the Cardinals are trying
Speaker 2: to lose to preserve the Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just don't think they are. I think the Cardinals
Speaker 1: and the Bears are like two of those teams trying
Speaker 1: way too hard. Right now, do one more? All right?
Speaker 1: Early Windows Saints at Bucks. All Right, this is a
Speaker 1: huge game in the NFC South. Saints are seven and
Speaker 1: eight and the Bucks lead that division at eight and seven.
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay after McLaughlin twenty four yard field goal to
Speaker 1: make it three to nothing, Tampa Bay Jacksonville third and
Speaker 1: fifteen at the Tampa Bay forty seven. I mean this
Speaker 1: game was more of a statement about the Jaguars, your Jaguars, Kelly.
Speaker 2: Bidlin, Yeah, than it was about the Bucks, I think.
Speaker 2: But third and fifteen at the Tampa Bay forty seven,
Speaker 2: Lawrence picked by Devin White. Tampa Bay turned that in
Speaker 2: to a ten play, fifty six yard drive, including Mayfield
Speaker 2: four yard run on fourth and two from the Jacksonville eighteen.
Speaker 2: Four plays later, Mayfield to Evan from three out, ten
Speaker 2: to nothing, Bucks twelve fifty three left second quarter. Then
Speaker 2: McManus missed a fifty two yard or wide Wright Cool
Speaker 2: McGlaughlin mcgloughlin cash that in with a thirty one yard
Speaker 2: and make a thirteen to nothing Tampa Bay two twenty
Speaker 2: seven left in the second quarter. Then Jacksonville second and
Speaker 2: five of their own forty one Lawrence picked again by
Speaker 2: Antwine Winfield Junior, who won thirty four left second quarter.
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay turned that into another drive seven plays, sixty
Speaker 2: five yards Mayfield to Evans for twenty two twenty to nothing,
Speaker 2: like literally one thirty four left on the clock. They're like,
Speaker 2: let's just matriculate and score again, two twenty four to
Speaker 2: eighty four and total yards in the first half. Trevor
Speaker 2: Lawrence should never have been cleared to play?
Speaker 1: Yeah, should he should have been played?
Speaker 2: You should have been playing. There were plus two and
Speaker 2: turnovers in the first half that led to plus fourteen
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay points. Third quarter, third play first and to
Speaker 2: have their own forty nine. Lawrence sacked by ya Ya Diaby,
Speaker 2: fumbles recovered by Diaby. That is the signature of Trevor
Speaker 2: Lawrence's career.
Speaker 1: Sorry killing, He's loose with the football, lose for the football.
Speaker 2: Wise, He's not a generational player.
Speaker 1: He's very comparable right now. He's a poor man's Josh Allen.
Speaker 1: He's a destitute man's Josh Allen. Okay.
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay five plays forty two yards wide in from
Speaker 2: two twenty seven to nothing Bucks eleven thirty left third quarter,
Speaker 2: then Jacksonville fourth and thirteen at the Tampa Bay forty
Speaker 2: after delay call, Lawrence incomplete pass intended for Agnew. Tampa
Speaker 2: Bay would get another Chase McLaughlin a fifty one yard
Speaker 2: field goal thirty to nothing Bucks late third quarter. The
Speaker 2: only thing left to say is they did get a
Speaker 2: garbage touchdown. Jacksonville did twice. Lawrence to Ridley from six out.
Speaker 2: They missed the two point conversion to make it thirty
Speaker 2: to six, and then Lawrence got hurt on that drive.
Speaker 1: So CJ.
Speaker 2: Bethard came in the game. He got himself a garbage
Speaker 2: touchdown thirty to twelve. That's how it would end, and
Speaker 2: not hurt like he reinjured ahead or anything like no
Speaker 2: shoulder into the sideline will be reevaluated today. Dog Peterson
Speaker 2: talking after the game, they don't think it's long.
Speaker 1: Term or serious, but test coming today.
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay minus four hosting the same It's in a
Speaker 2: big NFC South game.
Speaker 1: That is Tampa Bay three. Right now, that's my first
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. That's my first play.
Speaker 2: I'm taking the Bucks.
Speaker 1: There's even a couple of cheap threes out there that's
Speaker 1: interesting to me.
Speaker 2: I have not bet it yet. I think I'm gonna
Speaker 2: be with you there, though that is a that line
Speaker 2: is too low. I do not believe in the Saints
Speaker 2: one bit. By the way, I don't mind either.
Speaker 1: I mean it's the NFC South. I wouldn't be you know,
Speaker 1: if this gets up to like four four and a half,
Speaker 1: that'd be a no for me on the Bucks. Remind
Speaker 1: everybody what your Jags pre flop bets are just division bets.
Speaker 1: I've got multiple bets for them to win the division,
Speaker 1: like minus one fifty, minus one forty and gotta sweat
Speaker 1: out the next couple of weeks.
Speaker 2: Gil, you got lucky. The entire division lost.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I was just thinking, hey, go steal one
Speaker 1: from Tampa.
Speaker 2: Bay and this is looking real good, but no play
Speaker 2: an egg Lebizard is next on DK. We think we're
Speaker 2: coming back vs. In Live from Circuits, a numbers game
Speaker 2: right here on the Sports Betting Network.
Speaker 1: The Numbers told the story they always do. It's one
Speaker 1: of those idiots analytics.
Speaker 2: This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander our number
Speaker 2: two of a numbers game at Visa, the Sports Betting Network,
Speaker 2: Visa dot Com, the Visa app, game plus iHeart Radio
Speaker 2: YouTube TV. However, you're taking us in this morning. We appreciated.
Speaker 1: It is Christmas Day.
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas. Skill Alexander, It's Kelly Bidlin. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we're just plowing through it. We'll be here in New
Speaker 2: Year's Day.
Speaker 1: Too, by the way, Yeah we will.
Speaker 2: We are someone called you will be Oh you're not
Speaker 2: gonna be here, that's right, we're just talking about during
Speaker 2: the break, Kelly takes a drinking day off on New
Speaker 2: Year's Day. I apologize, Wyatt, Tom Check will be in
Speaker 2: for Kelly Bidlin.
Speaker 1: I'd really like to refute that statement, but no, it's justurate.
Speaker 1: I'll be with someone.
Speaker 2: Someone on Twitter called us alpha's for being on the
Speaker 2: show today.
Speaker 1: It's what we are. I'll really know what that means
Speaker 1: is gen xa alpha males is what he means. That's
Speaker 1: the way I took it. But maybe it's something else,
Speaker 1: some other cool sling I heard. I also heard that
Speaker 1: my age group it gets brought up at millennial millennial cringe.
Speaker 1: Apparently I didn't. I had to google. Hell that was cringe,
Speaker 1: which makes it probably more cringe, like more millennial cringe
Speaker 1: if you have to google what that means? Right, y X,
Speaker 1: the greatest generation? There you go? All right? You ready
Speaker 1: for some more early window on Sunday? Still early? Wait,
Speaker 1: real quick? We have we do not have a Monday
Speaker 1: night football game this week? Or are they waiting to
Speaker 1: flex something bowl games? AH could call why Tom Check,
Speaker 1: that's what the story is.
Speaker 2: The voice of God just spoken in my ear right
Speaker 2: says bowl games. That would make sense. So the NFL
Speaker 2: is deferring to college.
Speaker 1: They are. So we are just Sunday this week? All right?
Speaker 2: So how many early games do we have then on Sunday?
Speaker 2: Probably more than ever?
Speaker 1: Ten? Oh god? Yeah, okay, good point ten. That's not fun,
Speaker 1: but that's also dumb.
Speaker 2: Yes, there's a boy, oh boy, there's only three late
Speaker 2: window games. We couldn't take two of those and throw
Speaker 2: them on Saturday.
Speaker 1: What are we scheduling? Drives me in sick. Hey, I'm
Speaker 1: so happy to catch the Bucks and Knicks here at
Speaker 1: about an hour. Oh wait, but they played it the
Speaker 1: same time two days ago? What are we doing in sports?
Speaker 1: All right? Forty nine ers and Commander's early window.
Speaker 2: I don't think the screaming works as well in here?
Speaker 1: Does it? That go too much?
Speaker 4: Sure?
Speaker 1: All right? What was it?
Speaker 2: San Francisco?
Speaker 1: Yeah, San Francisco Commanders. Oh boy, well.
Speaker 2: San Francisco of course, the big game of them all
Speaker 2: tonight against the Ravens. We'll talk about these three games
Speaker 2: here momentarily. So sight unseen on the Niners at Washington. Jacoby,
Speaker 2: here's the can I just say this about the Commodoores.
Speaker 2: Jacoby Brissett is making Sam Howell until two weeks Ago.
Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, you can't blame any of this
Speaker 2: on Sam Howell. It's the line, you can't blame it
Speaker 2: for anything. And then Jacoby Brissette comes in and I
Speaker 2: get it. Maybe it's against softer defenses.
Speaker 1: But he looks so much better. But in so much
Speaker 1: until you've officially given up on Sam Howe, you have
Speaker 1: to keep trotting him out there, right because you go
Speaker 1: figure out what you got.
Speaker 2: Oh, for sure, Howell was six for twenty two in
Speaker 2: this game yesterday against the Jets for fifty six yards.
Speaker 1: Is that good?
Speaker 2: It's not good. Brissette was ten of thirteen for a
Speaker 2: HUNDI out gained three eighty one to two forty five
Speaker 2: by the Jettisons. San Francisco's got to be like a
Speaker 2: thirteen point favorite minimum here on thirteen.
Speaker 1: And a half. Okay, thirteen and a half. So you
Speaker 1: were pretty dead. Oh so far?
Speaker 2: I like Tampa Bay the most.
Speaker 1: Yess what, we're still in the early window. Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Panthers had Jaguars.
Speaker 2: The two and thirteen Panthers, the eight and seven jaguarres.
Speaker 2: You a Jaguars or Jaguars, Guy, Jaguars.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you said. I don't know what
Speaker 1: you answered, eh.
Speaker 2: Jaguars Carolina. After a punt, green Bay went seven plays
Speaker 2: eighty yards, dialing in from one seven to zhering Pack
Speaker 2: seven twenty three left first quarter after Pinero fifty two
Speaker 2: yard field goal to cut into seven to three. Jones
Speaker 2: thirty nine yard carry started the drive. Love one yard
Speaker 2: run ends at first play, second quarter, thirteen to three
Speaker 2: green Bay. Carlson anders, Carlson, that is missus the pat.
Speaker 2: Carolina then eight play seventy seven yards Emir Smith Marsette
Speaker 2: from twenty out thirteen to ten, green Bay ten to
Speaker 2: twenty nine ten twenty nine. Pardon me left in this quarter.
Speaker 2: We did have somebody who had green Bay and survivor,
Speaker 2: so they had to sweat this out. Carlson fifty three
Speaker 2: yard field goals sixteen to ten, Pack seven to fifty
Speaker 2: one left in the second quarter. Then a Carolina punt.
Speaker 2: Green Bay then went eleven play sixty yards love to
Speaker 2: Dontavion Wicks from twenty one out twenty three to ten
Speaker 2: green Bay. That would be the score at the half,
Speaker 2: and so okay, Packers backers feeling kind of good about themselves.
Speaker 2: But thenk Carolina does that third quarter thing that they
Speaker 2: always do. Fourteen play seventy two yard drive. It's like
Speaker 2: clockwork with them coming out of the break, including a
Speaker 2: fourth and one conversion. Hubbard in from four twenty three
Speaker 2: to sixteen green Bay Pinero misses the pat because of
Speaker 2: course he did. Five eleven left third quarter. Then green
Speaker 2: Bay nine play sixty six yards Loved to Dobbs from
Speaker 2: five out first play fourth quarter, and the Packers re
Speaker 2: established a fourteen point lead thirty to sixteen. After Carolina
Speaker 2: punt green Bay three and out. Carolina the nine play
Speaker 2: sixty yards Bryce to dj Chark for eleven. They went
Speaker 2: for two, but a holding penalty forced them to kick
Speaker 2: the pat and Pinnero goes ahead and misses. That keeps
Speaker 2: it thirty to twenty two. Green Bay seven to fourteen
Speaker 2: to go. Then after green Bay three, now Carolina goes
Speaker 2: seventy yards on five plays, Bryce to Chark from ten
Speaker 2: out and they get the two point conversion from Brahem
Speaker 2: blackshear we are tied at thirty with four h five
Speaker 2: to go. Man Bryce, Bryce, youong looked better yesterday than
Speaker 2: he has all year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, his best game of the season, his best game
Speaker 1: of the season. But then Green May matriculates Carlson thirty two.
Speaker 1: Yr Field go thirty three to thirty, and then Carolina
Speaker 1: takes over with nineteen seconds to go, and you're like, well,
Speaker 1: they're gonna lose. But Bryce goes.
Speaker 2: To Chark for twenty two, then to Feeling for twenty two,
Speaker 2: but the clock runs out.
Speaker 1: Ball game.
Speaker 2: They couldn't get another snap off, and I do believe
Speaker 2: it was the correct call, thirty three to thirty Green Bay.
Speaker 2: Bryce ended up with three hundred twelve yards passing, Chark
Speaker 2: had ninety eight of them in two touchdowns. They're taking
Speaker 2: on Jacksonville, you said, yep. Trevor Lawrence, by the way,
Speaker 2: was seventeen of twenty nine in defeat against Tampa Bay
Speaker 2: yesterday for two eleven. He had a fumble lost be third.
Speaker 2: It was eleven to fifteen for ninety four in relief.
Speaker 2: But Jacksonville was minus four and turnovers in that game
Speaker 2: that led to plus twenty one net Tampa Bay points.
Speaker 2: As Jacksonville loses, much to Kelly Chagrin there fourth in
Speaker 2: a row, they'll still be big favorites against Carolina. I
Speaker 2: don't know how big.
Speaker 1: I'll say six. Yeah, you're right on six. At DraftKings
Speaker 1: six and six to six and a half everywhere at
Speaker 1: other books.
Speaker 2: But yeah, you're you're right in that ring because we
Speaker 2: don't know if Trevor Lawrence is gonna play mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I don't think you can assume he will. By the way,
Speaker 2: this thing, the whole thing about him never wanting to
Speaker 2: miss a game, sometimes you're better off.
Speaker 1: Miss this game. Yes, yes, we've seen this from certain
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the past, right, Like I don't like Farvin
Speaker 1: Romo come to mind, But it's like just to just
Speaker 1: to prove that you're the you're a tough guy. Like
Speaker 1: that's great, and we like everybody wants a tough quarterback
Speaker 1: playing for him, there's no doubt about that. But you
Speaker 1: get to these certain situations where it's, okay, you're so
Speaker 1: bad it's a concussion, you've been dealing with some other
Speaker 1: injuries throughout the season, through the two that you've played through,
Speaker 1: and like at a certain point, and I think we
Speaker 1: hit that point yesterday where you going out to the
Speaker 1: onto the field is not really an upgrade if at all,
Speaker 1: from you from what Bethar would have been throughout the
Speaker 1: entirety of that game or Rourke.
Speaker 2: They Jacksonville does have all the tie breakers, so you're
Speaker 2: still in good shape.
Speaker 1: I mean, I got really lucky. You got.
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about super lucky. One more here before
Speaker 2: the break.
Speaker 1: Here Dolphins at Ravens.
Speaker 2: Dolphins, with their win against the Cowboys, they go to
Speaker 2: eleven and four, can still get the number one seed.
Speaker 2: But here's the deal with the Dolphins. They could get
Speaker 2: the number one seed, they could also not win their division.
Speaker 2: So if the Dolphins lose this game at Baltimore, realistic,
Speaker 2: Buffalo wins out the second of which is a game
Speaker 2: at Miami the final week of the season. So basically,
Speaker 2: Buffalo wins their last two the second witches against the Dolphins,
Speaker 2: and Miami loses their last two, the second of witches
Speaker 2: against the Bills and the first of which is here
Speaker 2: at Baltimore. Buffalo wins the AFC East, despite Miami's big
Speaker 2: win over Dallas yesterday and Baltimore where they play tonight,
Speaker 2: of course against the San Francisco forty nine ers. So
Speaker 2: side on the scene. By the way, Tua in victory
Speaker 2: yesterday twenty four thirty seven for two ninety three tyreek
Speaker 2: nine for ninety nine, Miami does clinch a playoff berth No.
Speaker 2: Matter what happens in terms of whether they win the division,
Speaker 2: they will at the very minimum be a wildcard. There
Speaker 2: is no scenario where they can be knocked out. I
Speaker 2: said Baltimore minus three just as a placeholder.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's three. It's three everywhere. I don't know about you.
Speaker 1: I think that I will be looking at if the
Speaker 1: Niners take care of business tonight. Yes, it will be
Speaker 1: a back to Ravens in this spot because.
Speaker 2: Next week, because Miami wins the bully Ball as we
Speaker 2: dubbed it last week. But this would be the opposite
Speaker 2: of that, right, I would go Baltimore and be right
Speaker 2: there with you, by the way.
Speaker 1: About then happily lay three, like if it's anywhere near
Speaker 1: this number, silly, happily lay three.
Speaker 2: In fact, I'm kind of rooting for the Niners to
Speaker 2: take care of business so that we can bet them,
Speaker 2: in which case, Tampa Bay and Baltimore will be my
Speaker 2: favorite so far that we've gone through. About that game
Speaker 2: today between the Dolphins and the Cowboys. We really didn't
Speaker 2: get a chance to talk about it ultimately, and I
Speaker 2: have the Dolphins it got there.
Speaker 1: Did you did.
Speaker 2: Anything happen in that game that made you feel any
Speaker 2: differently about either of those two. And I asked Ben
Speaker 2: Wilson the same question right after we got done watching
Speaker 2: the end of it after Lives.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a resounding no. I don't feel any
Speaker 1: different about either one of those teams. Me neither. And
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a I don't think a knock.
Speaker 2: It's they are.
Speaker 1: It's not a knock, but it's not. It just means
Speaker 1: kind of knock because we've been called, we've been calling
Speaker 1: the bullies, and all you can beat up is bad teams.
Speaker 1: I think it would have been a little bit more
Speaker 1: like if the if the Cowboys went in and win
Speaker 1: that game handedly or one way or the other. Right,
Speaker 1: if if there was a dominant victory by one of
Speaker 1: those teams, I'd be feeling a little different.
Speaker 2: You're right, it's a complete knock. Actually, you're right. It
Speaker 2: is because because they're both going to end up on
Speaker 2: the road and the postseason eventually. Right in the case
Speaker 2: of the Dolphins, maybe from the start, maybe not in
Speaker 2: the case of the Cowboys. Now the Eagles are back
Speaker 2: in the driver seeing the Eagles go Giants Cardinals, Giants
Speaker 2: to close out, so the Eagles big favorite to win
Speaker 2: the NFC East now, which would mean the Cowboys would
Speaker 2: have a Well, they'll go to the NFC South, so
Speaker 2: maybe they win the first one, but they'll still be
Speaker 2: on the road. They're not gonna get to the Promised Land.
Speaker 2: And the Dolphins. I'll just do it by my bets,
Speaker 2: my exact as are Niners to be the Bills, Niners
Speaker 2: to beat the Chiefs, Niners to beat the Ravens. I
Speaker 2: will not bet the Niners to be the Dolphins because
Speaker 2: I don't believe as great as they are to watch, yep,
Speaker 2: as fun as they are, they're the greatest team to
Speaker 2: watch in the NFL, the most speed we've ever seen
Speaker 2: for any team, but.
Speaker 1: One of the best coaches too. I believe that it's
Speaker 1: just not everything is there.
Speaker 2: And good for Tua yesterday because that final drive he
Speaker 2: needed to make it happen and he was great on
Speaker 2: that final drive.
Speaker 1: Would have been interesting to see what MVP odds were
Speaker 1: today if the Dolphins didn't win that game. Kind of
Speaker 1: felt with Dak you mean, yeah, because it kind of
Speaker 1: fell like he's doing kind of felt like a bit
Speaker 1: of lego one of those Heisman moment drives at the
Speaker 1: end of the game.
Speaker 2: I think I think if Purdy has any kind of
Speaker 2: credible game today, yeah, he is going to He's minus
Speaker 2: two fifty now to win the MVP. It's just gonna
Speaker 2: soar at this point. But I don't think that's a
Speaker 2: controversy you'll take.
Speaker 1: At this point. Lock it up, let's go Niners. By
Speaker 1: the way, you could say the same thing about Lamar
Speaker 1: if Lamar has a great game, Yeah, yeah, sure, he's
Speaker 1: right in the mix. Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 2: We got about five more games to get to, and
Speaker 2: we'll talk about the three games today in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Of course, not all created equal, and.
Speaker 2: All crescendos into that Baltimore San Francisco game tonight.

Speaker 1: a bad holiday to.

Speaker 2: is going to be on later this week. He feels
Speaker 2: bad about some of the things he said about federal employees.
Speaker 2: He wants to make amends, and.
Speaker 1: Then he wants to tell another story where apparently he
Speaker 1: bashes them. It's till horrible.
Speaker 2: Jeff Schwartz, Hey, Gil, we made reservations at CIRCA for
Speaker 2: Wednesday through Sunday of that first NCAA tournament weekend. Is
Speaker 2: there a process for reserving a spot at the sportsbook
Speaker 2: or is it just get there early? Oh no, it
Speaker 2: is not just get there early. All of these seats
Speaker 2: are accounted for back.
Speaker 1: Uh. Yeah, it definitely worth calling about. Let me put
Speaker 1: that and it is. It is worth getting one of
Speaker 1: the tables here too. If you've got a good group
Speaker 1: of people, it's definitely worth doing that. I will say
Speaker 1: this is pounder Robert as Lane says. I won't be
Speaker 1: able to watch guessing lines next week, but with good reason.
Speaker 1: I'll be planted in a chair at Circa rooting my
Speaker 1: team on in the underwhelming relya Quest Bowl. After the
Speaker 1: big games later in the day, let's meet at er
Speaker 1: kobuto at Omaya. See he thinks he wants to take
Speaker 1: a shot. Kobudo is not secret sushi, but it is
Speaker 1: fan It's really good. Yeah, it's really fantastic.
Speaker 2: All right, we got games to get to her.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we do the uh yeah that uh.
Speaker 2: Kibudo is really good.
Speaker 1: I've been there a couple of times. All right, you
Speaker 1: ready for the I think we're last our last early
Speaker 1: window game.
Speaker 2: Good god, I know we're still in the early window.
Speaker 2: It's incredible. Titans at Texans five and ten, Titans eight
Speaker 2: and seven, Texans.
Speaker 1: Maybe C. J.
Speaker 2: Straut will be back next week. Maybe we don't know.
Speaker 2: Tennessee uh in their game yesterday gets Seattle three and out.
Speaker 2: Seattle punt, Tennessee punt Seattle three and out. Then Tennessee
Speaker 2: fifty seven yards on six plays. Henry to chicozium Ocon
Speaker 2: quote from twelve out seven and nothing Titans early second quarter.
Speaker 2: Then Meyers would at a field goal to cut it
Speaker 2: to seven to three. Folk would answer ten to three
Speaker 2: Tennessee late second quarter. That would be the score at
Speaker 2: the half. Seattle had ninety three total yards in the
Speaker 2: first half. They're down seven. Myers would cut it to
Speaker 2: ten to six, and then after Tennessee punt Seattle ten
Speaker 2: plays ninety six yards, they'd wake up Gino to DK
Speaker 2: from eleven out thirteen to ten Hawks. They take their
Speaker 2: first lead with twelve ten left to the fourth quarter,
Speaker 2: but the Titans would answer fourteen plays seventy five yards.
Speaker 1: You okay? Ever there, You're good?
Speaker 2: Yeah, fourteen plays seventy five yards, including a fourth and
Speaker 2: one conversion at the Seattle twenty seven. Henry eventually in
Speaker 2: from one Titans lead at seventeen to thirteen with three
Speaker 2: twenty one to go. Could Seattle work the magic two
Speaker 2: weeks in a row? The answer yes, third and fourteen
Speaker 2: at their own thirty two two minute warning, Gino to
Speaker 2: Jackson Smith jig but for eighteen, two plays later to
Speaker 2: lock it for two, twelve to JSN for three, then
Speaker 2: to lock it for eight. Two plays later pi on
Speaker 2: Trey Avery checking d K and then Seattle set up
Speaker 2: at the Tennessee five first in goal one oh nine
Speaker 2: to go. Three plays later, Gino to coolby Parkinson, great
Speaker 2: catch from five out, twenty to seventeen Seahawks, fifty seven
Speaker 2: seconds to go. Tennessee has one time out? Did you
Speaker 2: trust Ryan Tannehill? Tennessee would get it to midfield with
Speaker 2: twenty nine seconds left, but with zero timeouts, and then Tannehill,
Speaker 2: the veteran, does the one thing you can't do, get
Speaker 2: sacked Yeah by Dramont Jones. Oh, that would effectively end
Speaker 2: at twenty to seventeen Seahawks. They're on the inside looking
Speaker 2: out of the NFC playoff picture now. Tannehill eighteen of
Speaker 2: twenty six for one fifty two in defeat, And we
Speaker 2: already talked about Houston. Keenum was eleven of seventeen for
Speaker 2: sixty two. He got benched for Davis Mills, who was
Speaker 2: fifteen of thirty two with two touches in that game.
Speaker 1: If it is C. J.
Speaker 2: Stroud and that would, of course put a damper on
Speaker 2: the whole Poka Nakua run for Offensive Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 1: The other thing, real quick, it's interesting about that, is
Speaker 1: do you it'd probably even be more or less likely
Speaker 1: of him returning if you had what the Colts and
Speaker 1: Jags win yesterday?
Speaker 2: Correct?
Speaker 1: Right? Like, that's another part of this equation. But should your.
Speaker 2: Playoff standing affect your concussion protocol? The answer is no.
Speaker 1: No, it shouldn't, especially with a first year quarterback.
Speaker 2: I said, Houston minus two and a half or three.
Speaker 2: If it's c J, it's say three three and a
Speaker 2: half painted right now, I don't know if he's playing
Speaker 2: or not. Concussion protocol is a funny thing.
Speaker 1: And we don't know, I mean, we don't know what's
Speaker 1: going on with the Tennessee quarterback situation either. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: that Levis could be back all right. Sunday late window
Speaker 1: four oh five Eastern.
Speaker 2: It's ere Steelers at se Thank god? How many how
Speaker 2: many late games are there?
Speaker 1: Three? There's only three? Man, that's just so stupid.
Speaker 2: Yes, so ten and then three, eight and seven Steelers
Speaker 2: on the outside looking in. Despite their win over Cincinnati
Speaker 2: on Saturday at Seattle again on the inside of the
Speaker 2: NFC playoff picture right now, Seattle. In this ballgame we
Speaker 2: just talked about, let's talk about Pittsburgh first on Saturday. Pittsburgh.
Speaker 2: This is the one game I got wrong so far.
Speaker 2: Three and one in millions, two to zero in megapod,
Speaker 2: but three and one in millions. I had Cincinnati in
Speaker 2: this game. Boy was that done quick? Pittsburgh two plays
Speaker 2: ninety two yards fifty two seconds Roodolph to Pickens for
Speaker 2: eighty six. That established the entire tone of the game.
Speaker 2: Seven to nothing Steelers ten forty five left in the
Speaker 2: first quarter. Then Cincinnati third and nine at the Pittsburgh sixteen.
Speaker 2: Browning picked in the end zone by Patrick Peterson. Just
Speaker 2: a horrible, horrible decision by Jake Browning. The Jake Browning
Speaker 2: sort of come up AND's happened in this game. Pittsburgh
Speaker 2: ten plays eighty yards five forty off the clock. Calvin
Speaker 2: Austin in from seven. Fourteen to nothing Steelers early second quarter.
Speaker 2: Then after Sincy three and out of Pittsburgh punt Cincinnati
Speaker 2: first and tenth theirre on eighteen Browning picked by Eric Rowe.
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh four plays fourteen yards nause In from three twenty
Speaker 2: one to nothing Steelers and then Cincinnati four than one
Speaker 2: at the Pittsburgh five late first half. Gotta get some
Speaker 2: points here, browning incomplete intended for Higgins. Oh really, that
Speaker 2: was the ballgame. Pittsburgh starts at their own five, two
Speaker 2: fourteen left. They'd get a Boswell fifty yard field. It
Speaker 2: was twenty four to nothing Steelers at the half. Third
Speaker 2: quarter contact cosmetic pardon me spit again, bardon me kind
Speaker 2: of cosmetic here twenty four to eight, But then the
Speaker 2: Steelers would answer to make it thirty one to eight.
Speaker 2: That was the ball game. Rudolph seventeen of twenty seven
Speaker 2: for two to ninety pickins had one ninety five of
Speaker 2: those with two touchdowns. He answered all the grills.
Speaker 5: Oh man, yeah, I mean he didn't answer the critics
Speaker 5: about his blocking, but he sureless good for selling catching
Speaker 5: the ball and run it.
Speaker 1: Who needs blocking.
Speaker 2: When I catch for one ninety five and two touches
Speaker 2: plus three in turnovers, by the way, led to plus
Speaker 2: seventeen net Pittsburgh points. Gino in the Seattle win was
Speaker 2: twenty five to thirty six for two twenty seven. Put
Speaker 2: it all in the wash. I'll see Seattle minus four
Speaker 2: and a half. Here's the deal again with the Mike
Speaker 2: Tomlins Dad with that win, and we said, he's got
Speaker 2: a win to keep this streak of his entire seventeen
Speaker 2: year career of never having it, having had it, losing
Speaker 2: season that before last week he had to go one
Speaker 2: to one in one and Cincinnati was the was the
Speaker 2: was the game he had to win. Yeah, now he's
Speaker 2: gotta go oh one and one in these last two games.
Speaker 1: My alt under seven and a half. That's dead. Now
Speaker 1: I'm sweating the under nine, sweating the under nine.
Speaker 2: You'll get the under nine.
Speaker 1: Your guess is four and a half, four and a half.
Speaker 1: The line is three and a half. It opened at three.
Speaker 1: I betted it three.
Speaker 2: That's a good bet.
Speaker 1: I bet Seattle at three. That was at three, was
Speaker 1: at three. Yeah, I betted at three, So I even
Speaker 1: doubled down. I guess on my Steeler's position gets to
Speaker 1: the Steelers position.
Speaker 2: But I mean in the same way that was good
Speaker 2: on Drew Locke two weeks ago, or the last week,
Speaker 2: I should say, was Seattle good on Mason Rudolph, who
Speaker 2: again we talked about maybe we you know, have we
Speaker 2: ever seen him? And Luca Gar's in the same place.
Speaker 1: By the way, I was just gonna I was gonna
Speaker 1: make that joke. I'm texting that like last week.
Speaker 2: Also, they they both wore black and yellow, right, black
Speaker 2: and gold. He does look like Luca Garzlap for sure.
Speaker 2: But good on Mason Rudolph again one of these guys.
Speaker 2: We tend to give up on people quick. But if
Speaker 2: you stay in the same system and you hold a clipbab, yeah,
Speaker 2: you come back pretty good.
Speaker 1: So to that point real quick, when they said it
Speaker 1: had been like over two years, Yeah, did you I
Speaker 1: have the thought of, wait, we haven't seen Mason Ruolf
Speaker 1: for two years. I feel like we've seen him for
Speaker 1: like a week or two, like every year over the
Speaker 1: past like four years.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, but the fact that that you can
Speaker 2: stick with the same team for that long now is
Speaker 2: also rare when you don't play yep. So good on
Speaker 2: him and good on the Steelers, and that was obviously
Speaker 2: a huge blow to the Bengals. Chances both are still alive.
Speaker 2: But I think the Seahawks a better football team here.
Speaker 2: So at three, good for you. You got a great
Speaker 2: bet in there. What is it NOWT three and a half?
Speaker 1: Yeah, three and a half? Three and a half might
Speaker 1: buy that down to three and play it that. There's
Speaker 1: there's a couple cheap three and a half's out there,
Speaker 1: so yeah, you might be able to buy that down,
Speaker 1: not at a crazy price. I do see a couple
Speaker 1: and there actually are a couple threes around the world.
Speaker 2: All right, so far then Tampa, Tampa Bay, I like
Speaker 2: the best at the current number.
Speaker 1: Baltimore, if it's three after to that, I think we
Speaker 1: both got that one's circles.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I might buy Seattle down there it's three
Speaker 2: and a half, I might.
Speaker 1: Fight out against the Steelers.
Speaker 2: A few more games to get to, and then we
Speaker 2: got to talk about the three games today.
Speaker 1: Full play to football on this Christmas Day.
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas from a numbers game at Feasts the Sports
Speaker 2: Betting Network, coming right backs, Gil, Alexander, Kelly Bidlin live
Speaker 2: from a circle on this Christmas morning.
Speaker 1: We are live.
Speaker 2: This is not taped. We're actually doing this.
Speaker 1: We are that is true, We are actually here. All right.
Speaker 2: We got a few more games to get to and
Speaker 2: then we'll get to today's games.
Speaker 1: What we get left? All right? Sunday four to twenty five,
Speaker 1: Eastern Chargers at Broncos.
Speaker 2: Chargers at Broncos. Boy, those Chargers just stopped playing for
Speaker 2: Brandon Staley, didn't they like that? Performance? On Saturday? Was like, oh,
Speaker 2: you guys actually might like your coaching now, right, Yeah?
Speaker 2: Five and ten Chargers. By the way, Easton Stick was
Speaker 2: twenty three of thirty three and defee for two fifteen.
Speaker 2: He was sacked five times. They were plus three and
Speaker 2: turnovers that led to plus thirteen net Chargers points didn't
Speaker 2: matter in that game. At Denver. We already talked about
Speaker 2: Denver's outright loss as a seven and a half point
Speaker 2: favorites yesterday against the Patriots, which had huge survivor implications,
Speaker 2: knocked down circus survivor remaining entrance from ten to four.
Speaker 1: Which is and all four have the Eagles.
Speaker 2: Today Christmas standalone week in case you missed it earlier,
Speaker 2: So no business transactions had to happen today. If the
Speaker 2: Giants were to somehow went out right, the contest would
Speaker 2: be over. Everybody would chop that and it would be
Speaker 2: properly done with CIRCA issuing the proper tax forms. But
Speaker 2: if the Eagles win, which obviously that's expected to happen,
Speaker 2: those four are not automatically gonna chop they're gonna have
Speaker 2: to sort of think it out themselves see what they
Speaker 2: want to do. And we'll have Greg Jones on the
Speaker 2: show tomorrow of one of the four remaining.
Speaker 1: Can't wait to talk to him again. I do think
Speaker 1: that Joe Pede tweets interesting if just if you know,
Speaker 1: everybody saw on the Eagles. Yeah, bet a little Eagles today,
Speaker 1: like you bet some money on the Eagles today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, although the money line is so prohibitive it's minus
Speaker 2: seven something. But I mean if you have listen, if
Speaker 2: you have thirty five thousand dollars laying around, there's five
Speaker 2: thousand for it.
Speaker 1: Maybe one of those situations that be getting down whatever
Speaker 1: it could. I mean, worst case scenario, you're chopping up
Speaker 1: nine million dollars with four or three other peoples.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean if that's that's exactly right. Yeah, charges
Speaker 2: at Denver, this would happens. Sean Payton. When you you
Speaker 2: say you're gonna come on a numbers game and then
Speaker 2: you say that, you say you're coming on, then you don't.
Speaker 2: Oh that was Sean Perry. Oh I'm sorry, Sean Payton.
Speaker 2: Sean Payton, Sean Payton, Carba, Sean Payton, how's that looking
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 1: By the way, I.
Speaker 2: Said that at the end of the game yesterday with
Speaker 2: the Broncos.
Speaker 1: It's like amazing the things that stick with you through
Speaker 1: a season though, you know what I mean like that
Speaker 1: is it was well because you.
Speaker 2: Broke the whole fraternity of coaches thing and went after
Speaker 2: Nathaniel Hack. It like, bro, you won one Super Bowl
Speaker 2: and you had Drew Brees. You're not Joe Gibbs. Stop
Speaker 2: just stop it. By the way, you were scab in
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 1: Also, we never talked about Drew Brees and hair last week.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was odd. Oh.
Speaker 2: I do want to say this one thing. You know,
Speaker 2: while I was saying when I was doing the recap
Speaker 2: of that game, and I was like, you know, Belichick
Speaker 2: wanted to go to overtime and Sean Payton wouldn't let
Speaker 2: him with the two timeouts. I still think that was
Speaker 2: the proper thing for Sean Payton to do.
Speaker 1: Me too, Yes, it just it just backfire, Yeah, just backfired. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I would have been doing the same thing.
Speaker 2: Broncos minus three. I don't know what else to make it.
Speaker 1: This is man, where did this open? This is Broncos
Speaker 1: five and a half? What right now? Yeah, we are
Speaker 1: five and a half or.
Speaker 2: Six I'll tell you, Oh, y'all like all this on
Speaker 2: this Broncos bandwagon, it was always fraudulent. They're five and
Speaker 2: a half point favorites against the joke, there's six places
Speaker 2: the Chargers enough to like run to bet that, but like, no,
Speaker 2: that seems high, doesn't that seem It's always.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's always this time of the year though, where
Speaker 1: you run into these situations, right, it's the Okay, some
Speaker 1: team's mailed it in for the season, making vacation plans,
Speaker 1: and you're getting more points, more points than you should
Speaker 1: be getting with them. But do you really have enough
Speaker 1: guts to go and make the bet?
Speaker 2: Broncos really had it on their racket to get into
Speaker 2: the postseason. That loss last night puts their their playoff
Speaker 2: chances at just over two percent. Now, wow, according to
Speaker 2: some models, I think that's too high, but I'm not racing.
Speaker 1: I couldn't do that all right, last late window game
Speaker 1: four to twenty five Eastern Bengals at Chiefs.
Speaker 2: Chief's about to play here in a little less than
Speaker 2: an hour and a half, hosting the Raiders, which we'll
Speaker 2: get to here in the next segment. The Bengals in
Speaker 2: that loss on Saturday to the Steelers, and that was
Speaker 2: a brutal loss for them in terms of their playoff
Speaker 2: hopes though they've got a shot, but still not good now.
Speaker 2: Browning twenty eight to four, two for three thirty five,
Speaker 2: but he was picked three times, He got Zack three times,
Speaker 2: Higgins five for one for a touchdown. They were minus
Speaker 2: three in turnovers that led to plus seventeen net Pittsburgh
Speaker 2: Steeler points in that game. Bengals are eight and seven.
Speaker 2: Chiefs are nine to five headed into today's game. I said,
Speaker 2: Chiefs minus seven and a hook.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is seven and a half or eight everywhere
Speaker 1: right now, So you're basically right on it. I think
Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. On the Sunday Night football, Sir,
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football Packers at Vikings.
Speaker 2: All right, So both the Packers and Vikings are seven
Speaker 2: and eight. Both are on the outside looking in. They
Speaker 2: can't win the division. Lions obviously clinch that. Lion's way
Speaker 2: ahead of them in the lost column. Obviously in the
Speaker 2: NFC North anyway, so that wouldn't even be close. But
Speaker 2: in terms of the wild card right now, the Vikings
Speaker 2: are in the eighth position. So just outside and Green Bay.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's four teams that are seven and eight,
Speaker 2: one game behind the NFC playoff teams. The Rams and
Speaker 2: the Seahawks are both eight and seven. Those are the Kings,
Speaker 2: the Falcons, the Packers, and the Saints. So they need help.
Speaker 2: The only way to get that help is to win
Speaker 2: this one. Green Bay in their win, their their win
Speaker 2: that they just hung on to against the Panthers. Jordan
Speaker 2: Love seventeen of twenty eight for two nineteen, two touchdowns,
Speaker 2: no picks, he did get a touchdown on the ground.
Speaker 2: Jones twenty one twenty one for one to twenty seven.
Speaker 2: And then Minnesota Nick Mullins, the Nick Mullens experience twenty
Speaker 2: two of thirty six for four to eleven, four eleven.
Speaker 1: It's an experience, all right.
Speaker 2: Two touchdowns, four picks, sack four times, Jefferson six for
Speaker 2: one forty one of those in a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Yeah, incredible.
Speaker 2: Josh Dobbs would have been able to play with justin Jefferson.
Speaker 2: You know what the Vikings should have been doing post
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins, now that we've seen both of them play,
Speaker 2: they should have had Nick Mullens playing in between the
Speaker 2: twenties and then put Dobbs in there in the red
Speaker 2: zone because he makes plays that neither of them can or.
Speaker 1: The other one that I here's what I can't figure
Speaker 1: out with the whole Vikings quarterback situation. Whatever happened to
Speaker 1: the Jared whole thing.
Speaker 2: Oh, he was the immediate backup to for the thousands,
Speaker 2: and he's also the backup now to Mullins, right, and
Speaker 2: then got hurt and that's when they went and got Dobbs.
Speaker 2: Obviously O'Connell hated Dobbs from.
Speaker 1: Day one, didn't even want him there. He goes to Mullins.
Speaker 1: But Jared Hol's now healthy. Why hasn't he gotten a chance?
Speaker 2: Well, because Mullins throws for four eleven, so I understand
Speaker 2: why I'm still in there. But then like right, turn
Speaker 2: the ball over. It's like, Okay, you're really good. Oh
Speaker 2: you're not good. That's all right, right, I forgot.
Speaker 1: Like you said, it's an experience.
Speaker 2: That duck at the end though, like Jefferson is just
Speaker 2: waiting for that ball.
Speaker 1: It's that was bad. The only thing I can defend
Speaker 1: him with though, is when you basically throw a what
Speaker 1: was that like a third and twenty, like like a
Speaker 1: hail Mary to Justin Jefferson with like two guys hanging
Speaker 1: all over him, and he comes down with the ball
Speaker 1: like the stud wide receiver, like you want to give
Speaker 1: the ball to him. I get it.
Speaker 2: I'll say vikings minus three. I don't know what else
Speaker 2: to make this.
Speaker 1: This is under the three. It is vikings two or
Speaker 1: two and.
Speaker 2: A half everywhere two or two and a half. Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, so we look back on this alon. We'll
Speaker 2: just do one more time, because again, the whole point
Speaker 2: of all of this is the this exercise has been
Speaker 2: spectacular for us all year, and again it's led to
Speaker 2: if you listen to the Megapod on Thursday again guessing
Speaker 2: lines of the Megapod, both on the beating the book feed,
Speaker 2: we're all podcasts are distributed and available. By the way, again,
Speaker 2: I'm thirty one and fifteen this year based on these
Speaker 2: first instincts and to me this past week having hit
Speaker 2: on and this is the difference, by the way, and
Speaker 2: I want to say this again, Oh, if you're so good,
Speaker 2: why aren't you uh, why aren't you cashing in millions?
Speaker 2: Great question, glad you asked, because on the Megapod we
Speaker 2: just do the top three picks and then in millions
Speaker 2: you have to go five. Well, if we keep it
Speaker 2: to three, i'm your guy. As soon as we go
Speaker 2: to five, I'm not here. I'm not your guy anymore.
Speaker 5: I think I'm really not. I think there's a reason
Speaker 5: why they settled on that n at the beginning.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that dreaded fifth pick always the.
Speaker 2: F it is the worst, and you're supposed to go
Speaker 2: fifty to fifty on that.
Speaker 1: But I guarantee you I'm not feel I know I'm
Speaker 1: not this, but it feels like lifetime. I'm hitting those
Speaker 1: hit like a twenty one percent clip.
Speaker 2: Do you have a pulse in circum millions? By the way,
Speaker 2: do you have a heartbeat going in there?
Speaker 1: I have a pulse. I have a pulse. It was
Speaker 1: so this quarter I needed. If I'm going to cast
Speaker 1: season long at all, I'm gonna cash in the courridor
Speaker 1: probably three to one and one first week of the
Speaker 1: quarter and second week. This third week, I'm sitting on
Speaker 1: three and one with niners pending today.
Speaker 2: If I have a great two final weeks, I will
Speaker 2: probably finish like one hundred and eightieth, right, which will
Speaker 2: which will just be the booby prize of all boo.
Speaker 1: I like, I haven't. I haven't been checking the standings
Speaker 1: because I'm at that point where I'm like, i'd rather
Speaker 1: like we'll find out. Yeah, I'll check it last week, right,
Speaker 1: But I kind of have a feeling like if I
Speaker 1: do is even if I do that, great, I'm probably
Speaker 1: in the same situation you are.
Speaker 2: So I like Tampa Bay the best. I like Baltimore.
Speaker 2: If it remains three after tonight's game, correct, I'll be
Speaker 2: on that too. Tampa Bay hosting who's Tampa Bay hosting again?
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay hosting the Saints, Baltimore hosting the Dolphins. I
Speaker 2: kind of like the Chargers getting the points on the
Speaker 2: road at Denver, but not enough to like race to
Speaker 2: bet that because I just don't. I mean, maybe that
Speaker 2: was the Chargers moment new coach. So I don't know.
Speaker 1: If I I understand your guests, I understand where the
Speaker 1: line is, I would have no idea, no desire to
Speaker 1: go actually yet that I think you're right. I bet
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. I laid the three with the Seahawks. I
Speaker 1: might bet that down with it, and then I think
Speaker 1: I might do. I'm not betting it yet. I don't
Speaker 1: think there's any reason to rush on this one. I
Speaker 1: have a feeling I'll be doing a money line parlay
Speaker 1: on the Browns and Cowboys. Actually in the two Earls.
Speaker 2: Like the Cowboys in that and on the money line parlay,
Speaker 2: and I especially like them. The Browns just got to
Speaker 2: beat the Jets seven and no at home, or the
Speaker 2: Cowboys
Speaker 5: Don't doctor
