1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up 3 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 2: Straight Fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntyre Street Fire for Friday, 4 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: November seventeenth. I wish I opened the podcast with better news, 5 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, But if you watch Thursday night football, 6 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 2: you know it was a reminder that these primetime games, 7 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: the injuries feel magnified. We had Week one Aaron Rodgers 8 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 2: goes down, done, Week two, Nick Chubb, and here we 9 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 2: are week eleven, Mark Andrews done for the season ankle surgery. 10 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 2: And the bigger one is Joe Burrow, who we may 11 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: have to start calling glass Joe hurt again. It's his risk. 12 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: There's drama, will dive all in to that Bengals. The 13 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: cover up is always worse than the crime, as they 14 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 2: like to say. But the Bengals lose to Baltimore thirty 15 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: four to twenty. The run of primetime unders was eleven 16 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 2: in a row before this one got out of hand. 17 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: Lamar look good. The Bengals did not. Joe Burrow went down. 18 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: It doesn't look good. We have a great guest coming 19 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 2: up to break Down week eleven. Sometimes, you know, we 20 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: like to get the front facing talent sometimes. Other times 21 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 2: we like to get you know, guys who maybe haven't 22 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: popped yet. And sometimes we like to go behind the 23 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: glass to talk to the guys setting the lines, book makers. 24 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: And this week we are going with Bett onlines. Dave Mason. 25 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: I'm sure you guys remember him. We had him on 26 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 2: last year. You guys love hearing about where the money is, 27 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: where the sharp action is. He's all over it. It 28 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: is an interesting weekend. The Sharps have been hammering the 29 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins, as expected. The public on the Cowboys, it 30 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: feels like a bit of a trap. Justin feels his back. 31 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 2: How much is Justin Fields worth to the spread? I 32 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: think you'll be surprised. We'll break that down, but first 33 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: we got to start with glass. 34 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow. 35 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: And I don't mean to be derogatory and come at 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow in any way, shape or for him, but 37 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 2: what the hell? Every year it's something with this guy. 38 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: You want to go back to his Ohio State days. 39 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 3: He was hurt. 40 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: You go back to the LSU game and then Natty 41 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: he got injured. The acl is a rookie, the appendectomy, 42 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 2: which isn't really an injury, but it's something and then 43 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: he had the calf and now it's a wrist. And 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: here's where the cover up is worse than the crime. 45 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: The Bengals social media feed posted video of the Bengals 46 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: getting off the bus in Baltimore business trip or as 47 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: they say, or whatever it is, and you see some 48 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: guys and then in the background you see Joe Burrow 49 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 2: with is cool shades on, cool Joe or Joe cool, 50 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call him. And then some folks 51 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: online pointed out, wait, what's that on his hand? Why 52 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: is he wearing an embrace? What's up with that? And 53 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 2: everybody starts making a big to do about it, and 54 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: the Bengals decided, you know, let's just remove that video. 55 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: Let's just take that bad boy down. No response, So 56 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: Burrow starts the game. Obviously looks okay early, they take 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 2: a lead, and then the Ravens snatched the lead back 58 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: and then Burrow lands on his wrist and in what, 59 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 2: you know, look kind of innocuous at the time. Later, 60 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: cameras from Amazon are on the sideline. Joe Burrow is 61 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: gripping a football and trying to throw it. He gets 62 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: halfway through his throwing motion and is like just drops 63 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 2: the football and is down on his knees essentially like 64 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, the pain, the pain, and it was 65 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: like whoa wait a minute. So this is the same 66 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: risk that he got off the bus with the brace on, 67 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 2: and that's when the can of worms is open. Like 68 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: what happened. Clearly the practice reports that he was fine, 69 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: didn miss any rips. Okay, I get that, but it's 70 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: pretty clear if you're wearing a brace off the bus, like, okay, 71 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: maybe you had. I mean, it's not like the flight 72 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: from Cincinnati to Baltimore is like a super long flight. 73 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: What is that like ninety minutes? 74 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 4: Maybe? 75 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I can't be much more than Vegas to 76 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: La which I think when I did it last week, 77 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: was like thirty eight minutes going one way and it 78 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: was like forty six to the other. I can't imagine 79 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Baltimore is a long flight. And Burrow gets off 80 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: the bus wearing a brace. Interesting and then he lands 81 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 2: on it and it's like I can't grip a football, 82 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: And now the questions are, so is he out? Two weeks? 83 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 2: Four weeks six? And folks, listen, Cincinnati Bengals were my 84 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 2: pick to get to the Super Bowl from the AFC. 85 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: I had them winning the Super Bowl. I thought this 86 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: was the year. And of course that was before Joe 87 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: Burrow's calf and now Burrow's wrist. And listen, I've called 88 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 2: him Glass Joe twice. Let's just do it one more 89 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 2: time because it might stick. Glass Joe Burrow. Let's say 90 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: they used their bye week obviously back in Week seven. 91 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: The Bengals, who've dropped a five and five, next host 92 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh next Sunday. Then they are at Jacksonville Monday night 93 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: Football Primetime, and then it's Indye Minnesota, Pittsburgh CAC Cleveland. 94 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: The problem is Pittsburgh has a ferocious pass rush. Jacksonville 95 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: can Minnesota blitzes the hell out of you. The Chiefs 96 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 2: have a really ferocious front and Cleveland has arguably the 97 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 2: best defense in the league. And if you remember what 98 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 2: Cleveland did to Burrow in Week one and what Cleveland 99 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 2: has done to Burrow under Stefanski, they historically have owned him. 100 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 2: It's safe to say the Bengals ain't going to the postseason. Okay, 101 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 2: that ship has sailed. It's over. The division is too tough. 102 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: Baltimore's got too big a lead. I know Cleveland lost Watson, 103 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: and that theoretically should leave the door open. But I 104 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: just I can't buy Joe Burrow missing any time. Here, 105 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 2: the kid Browning who went to Washington, he just doesn't 106 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: have the arm. I don't think he can process it 107 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: quick enough. He didn't look ready. They have a garbage 108 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 2: time touchdown drive to Chase. Of course, I'm facing him 109 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: in fantasy. I was not overly impressed. I don't think 110 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: you can count on Browning to win you games. I'm 111 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: talking like even the indie game is going to be 112 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: a massive challenge if you don't have Joe Burrow. So 113 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: I would say it's over for the Bengals if Burrow 114 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: has to miss any time, based on what we saw 115 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: with the video on the sideline and his injury history, 116 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 2: he gonna miss time. So it's over for the Bengals. 117 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 2: And worse yet, if you're the Ravens, you're feeling awesome 118 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 2: about Hey, another win. You know, we sweep these guys, 119 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 2: We got the division on lock. Things are looking good, 120 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: and then you lose Mark Andrews. According to John Harbaugh 121 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: for this season due to ankle surgery. Now there is 122 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 2: some drama surrounding the injury itself. Everybody knows. There's the 123 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 2: dreaded what are they call it, the hip drop where 124 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: the linebacker kind of lands on the hip takes the 125 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: guy down and it's like, listen, you got to tackle 126 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 2: him some way. But the suddenness and falling on the ankle, 127 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: the feet, the legs, it is super dangerous and if 128 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: you watch the Mark Andrews injury, it's really depressing. He 129 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: gets tackled by Logan Wilson, who I should add a 130 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: little bit later, hurt Lamar Jackson. Lamar stayed in the 131 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: game and then later knocked Odell Beckham out of the 132 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: game with a shoulder injury. So Logan Wilson just head hunting, 133 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: kind of joking and Mark he tackles Mark Andrews. Andrews 134 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: rolls over in pain. Lamar and an offensive line come 135 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: over to help him up, and you could just see 136 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: the pain that Andrews is in where Shad Baitman walks 137 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: up and instantly signals for help. And at that point 138 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, he's not coming back. And the 139 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: worst part is, well, not the worst part. The worst 140 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: part is the injury. It stings for Andrews. He's a 141 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: great player, a veteran integral. I mean they got other talent. 142 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: I like the kid Lively? Is it Lively? Isaiah Lively? 143 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 2: And likely one of those two. He's good athletic filled 144 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 2: in before for Andrew. I bet Andrew's over fifty seven 145 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: and a half yards receiving. He caught two passes on 146 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: that opening drive. He was definitely headed toward clearing it. 147 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: Bengals stink defending tight ends and the guy gets hurt 148 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: on the hip drop and his season is over. Rob 149 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: guh listen these primetime games Thursday night football. It's never great. 150 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: This was supposed to be a great game and all 151 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 2: that we get out of it is injuries to two 152 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: integral players. If I'm the Bengals, I'm really really upset. 153 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 2: I know we got we got the kid Kolar from 154 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: Iowa State and likely as fill ins. But Mark Andrews 155 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: is a game changer. I mean that guy is He's 156 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: a super star, top five tight end for sure. Is 157 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: really hurts the Ravens. But if you're a Bengals fan today, 158 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: you just I hate to sound bad, but like the 159 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 2: season's over. 160 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like we got robbed as sports fans, 161 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: Like this was supposed to be the game to me 162 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 3: even more so than Sunday's Eagles, or is it Monday's 163 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 3: Eagles Chiefs? You know the Super Bowl rematch. Everyone decided 164 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 3: about that one, but this was the one to me 165 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 3: that felt like a bigger game because Chiefs Eagles, both 166 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 3: of those teams are a top their conferences. They have 167 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 3: comfortable leads for the most part in their divisions, so 168 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 3: they're gonna be in the postseason dance in some former 169 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 3: fast You're basically just fighting for the one. See at 170 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: this point, this game last night could have basically determined 171 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 3: a playoff spot for the Bengals by losing this game, 172 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 3: even without Joe Burrow getting hurt, it was an uphill battle. 173 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 3: Extremely think they would have been one to five in 174 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 3: the AFC, so every basic tiebreaker could imaginable likely would 175 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: have went again to them. So it was essentially a 176 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 3: must win for them the Ravens just to maintain their 177 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: lead in that division. What probably would have needed to win, 178 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 3: which end up getting So everybody was looking at this 179 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 3: and then when they came out, it was like a 180 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 3: heavyweight fight, like guys are getting sacked. They come out early, 181 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: it's ten, it's seven to nothing, then it's seven to three. 182 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 3: Then it's tended like they're going back and forth, and 183 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow on the play he gets hurt, throws a 184 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 3: touchdown pass. Like these two teams are on the short 185 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 3: list or were on the short list of Super Bowl contenders. 186 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 3: These two teams were going to be the next month 187 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: of the season fighting for the division crown. And so 188 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 3: the fact that it gets marred by an injury to 189 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 3: Mark Andrews, who is their number one receiving option. And 190 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 3: you could tell as soon as it happened that Lamar 191 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: Jackson took off his I'm gonna slam didnt discuss because 192 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: he knew right away, Like he knew immediately that he's done. 193 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 3: This is not just he's out for the game, he's 194 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 3: out for a week or two, Like he knew he 195 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 3: was serious. So you're upset for him. And then this 196 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow thing, My question to you is, and we 197 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 3: talked about a little four we start recording. You touched 198 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 3: on it briefly about Joe Burrow's injury history going back 199 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 3: to college, like he's basically been hurt or nicked up 200 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 3: at least every year of the last three and a 201 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 3: half years, and then going back twenty seventeen, he broke 202 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: his hand at Ohio State. This past we wasn't even 203 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 3: the offse has like the week one of the season. 204 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: They gave him a new five year to seventy five 205 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 3: million dollar extension, two hundred and nineteen million in guarantees. 206 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 3: I think Joe Burrow's great. I think he's the second 207 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 3: best quarterback in football. But at what point do you 208 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: start to consider the idea that this contract is going 209 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 3: to come back to bite him because he just can't 210 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 3: seem to stay healthy. 211 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's extremely difficult. I mean, you know, to defend 212 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: him briefly, when he had the ACL injury, he missed 213 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 2: six games. He missed one game last year. I would 214 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: have to look to see if it was a week seventeen. 215 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 2: But he's had injuries, he's been nicked up. He hasn't 216 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: missed that much time. But with the calf injury this year, 217 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: it felt like he might as well have missed the 218 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 2: first two games. He was total garbage and they got smacked. 219 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. I was calling him Glass Joe in jest, 220 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 2: but I mean this is his fourth year in the league, 221 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 2: and in two of them he suffered significant injuries. In 222 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 2: the third he had like an appendectomy that took him 223 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 2: a month to get really started. I don't know. I've 224 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: never had an appendectomy. 225 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 3: Of you negative have not. 226 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: So if you were having an appendectomy, wouldn't you get 227 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: it done like in the middle of the off season 228 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 2: or the beginning of the off season as opposed to 229 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 2: August unless it was all you know. 230 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 3: That's what happened. 231 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: Ah, So that's kind of more of the unlucky. Yeah, 232 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: I don't. At some point, you got you know what, 233 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 2: what do they say? The most valuable thing you can 234 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: be is available? And you know Burrow he's gonna be 235 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: the second time in four years he's gonna miss a 236 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: significant chunk of time. Assuming this risk takes him down 237 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 2: and you toss in that calf, and it's like, I mean, 238 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 2: you can't regret the contract because he's so good when 239 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 2: he's healthy. They spent so much money on that offensive line. 240 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 2: If this season is indeed wasted, and then if you 241 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 2: don't make the playoffs, I think it's wasted, especially after 242 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: going to the UH to the playoffs again last year 243 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: and making a deep run. Like they're gonna have to 244 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 2: start shedding salary. I'll take a look at the contract. 245 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: But like you know, ultimately, once that rookie deal starts 246 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 2: to unwind, you've got to start making sacrifices. And it 247 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 2: had appeared as if t. Higgins would be the first 248 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: guy that they lost from this core. Right now, they'll 249 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: have to They could show franchise tag someone. It seems 250 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: like the defense let go some people in the secondary 251 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 2: and the defense has regressed big time. It is very 252 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: difficult to build a contender when you've paid the quarterback. 253 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: A lot of teams have found this out the hard way. 254 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: It just it's gonna be tough for the Bengals. You know. 255 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 2: It's like the Josh Allen scenario in Buffalo on the 256 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 2: rookie deal. Awesome, awesome, awesome. They had their chance, they 257 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: had the window. We're seeing it close now. You know, 258 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 2: Mahomes is the one guy that case has somehow magically 259 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: navigated the contract the salaries like they've done a magnificent job. 260 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,599 Speaker 2: Now drafting really really well helps. But we'll see what 261 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 2: happens with the Chargers in Herbert. I mean, the Chargers 262 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 2: look like they're headed down wasting Herbert's rookie deal. They 263 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 2: tried their best, just didn't work out. The Dolphins at TUA. 264 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: You know, they need to to stay upright to not 265 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 2: waste his rookie deal. They've gone all in Bradley Chubb, 266 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill like they've spent and as you get from 267 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 2: the guests later, I love the Dolphins this week. But yeah, 268 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 2: I mean, Rob, you basically have your window with the 269 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 2: quarterback on the rookie deal. Like Baltimore never built really 270 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: well around Lamar. It kind of felt it's not an 271 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 2: apples to apples the way Cleveland attempted to build around 272 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: Lebron when he was in Cleveland the first time. They're like, oh, yeah, 273 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 2: we'll give you this Antoine Jamison and here's a thirty 274 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: four year old shack and here's Larry Hughes, like that's 275 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: what we got for you. You know, that's just not 276 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: gonna cut it. You know, you need to go spend 277 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: like real money, big boy money, and it just it 278 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: doesn't seem like these teams have really delivered for their 279 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 2: quarterbacks on the rookie deal. It stinks, but like for instance, Jacksonville, 280 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 2: they went all in. They would overpaid Christian Kirk, then 281 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 2: they traded for Calvin Ridley and let's be real, Trevor Lawrence, 282 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 2: he's not making the leap. I don't see it. So, 283 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: I mean Rob, in theory, it's easy to build and 284 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 2: it sounds like the most fun thing ever. But as 285 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 2: you know, we own the soccer team in Mexico and 286 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 2: I like to talk about it. Man, offseason has started 287 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: for us because we're last in the table. Playoffs are 288 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: still happening, and it's like we're looking to build, and 289 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: it's like, all right, well, you know, unfortunately we don't 290 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 2: have New York Yankees money. You know, we're trying to 291 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: do the moneyball thing, and that's hard and sacrifices must 292 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: be made. It's tough. I will be very curious how 293 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: the Bengals step into this offseason. I mean, Rob, think 294 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 2: about this coming into the season. Ideally or basically, the 295 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 2: three top teams per everybody, per every prognosticator stat Bengals, Bills, Chiefs, 296 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: not necessarily in that order. Here where we are Week eleven, 297 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: Bengals were five hundred and the quarterbacks hurt. Bills just 298 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: fired their roc and they're five hundred. Patrick Mahomes leading 299 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: the AFC once again. Like it really is just crazy 300 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 2: how this stuff works out. 301 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know what's everything you said is true. 302 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 3: But you know what sucks to me the most part 303 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 3: about all this is to your point, you know, the 304 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars, you know, Justin Herbert, whatever, you know, 305 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 3: build on the rookie contract. That's your best time to 306 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 3: get it done. You know, we're seeing that now. We 307 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 3: saw that with the Philadelphia Eagles Jalen Hurts. And what's 308 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 3: most disappointing about this Joe Burrow situation is, at least 309 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 3: in my opinion, they did it right. Like they have 310 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 3: the guys, they have the players, The offensive line was 311 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,119 Speaker 3: invested in. The wide receivers were young, but they're very explosive. 312 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 3: They got some good key players on defense. So they 313 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 3: did everything they were supposed to do. They made the 314 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 3: Super Bowl once, the AFC Championship Game twice this year. 315 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 3: They were considered by many, including yourself, to be the 316 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 3: favorites to win the Super Bowl and make the Super 317 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 3: Bowl again this year. And if this whole thing gets 318 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 3: derailed because of injury, like that's what's the most frustrating part, 319 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 3: because when they're when Joe Burrow is healthy, he is 320 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 3: as good as anyone this side of Patrick Mahomes and 321 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 3: even he can say I go tot toe Mahomes and 322 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 3: I beat him more times than not, So you know, 323 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 3: what does that say about me? Can burd him And 324 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 3: so for this situation to come up again because I 325 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 3: know that you said that he didn't miss a lot 326 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 3: of games, and that's true. But if you just look 327 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: at the last three seasons, the first three weeks of 328 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 3: every year, because he's either coming off the ACL he's 329 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 3: coming off the app in deck to me, or he's 330 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 3: coming off the calf or whatever, he gets off to 331 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 3: these historically slow starts, or from just counting, you know, 332 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 3: rough math in my head, the first three weeks of 333 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 3: the season the last three years, he's got seven, nine, ten, thirteen, 334 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 3: fifteen touchdowns against ten interceptions, Like that's not elite quarterback 335 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: that that's eight and O'Connell you know it's playing. 336 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 2: Quarterback out just so CJ. 337 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 3: Stroud, huh No, that's those like that. That's not good 338 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 3: quarterback play. But once he gets his legs underneath them, 339 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 3: once he starts to feel healthy, he he'll shred any 340 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 3: defense and we've seen him do it repeatedly over and over. 341 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 3: He got off to a good start last night against 342 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens, and it's just it sucks as a 343 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 3: football fan. I'm a Raiders fans. I don't have a 344 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 3: dog in this fight. But when you see great players 345 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 3: have their careers repeatedly interrupted by injury, it's just something 346 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 3: I don't think I'll be able. 347 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 4: To get over. 348 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Rob, I just decided to call up spot track 349 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,239 Speaker 2: and look at the free agents the Bengals have this 350 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: coming off season. 351 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 4: This is not good. 352 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: DJ Readers starting defensive tackle, Tyler Boyd, slot receiver, A woozy. 353 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 2: A let me see if he's their best cornerback. He's 354 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 2: obviously very good, and it's not like they're great in 355 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 2: the secondary. 356 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 4: But the kid A Woozy. 357 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 2: I think he was drafted by Dallas. He he looks 358 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 2: like he's at an okay season. Jonah Williams, who is 359 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 2: starting currently at right tackle and having a solid year. 360 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 2: These are all free agents. Irv Smith. Their tight end 361 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 2: they have. They have some depth a tight end, so 362 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 2: it's notut the end of the world. The kid Trayvon Williams, 363 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 2: the young running back. I think he's out of Texas, 364 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: A and M. He looked spicy at times. Drew Sample 365 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 2: another tight end. Those are that's a significant What was 366 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: that like five starters? Maybe six? Not great? Now you 367 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 2: can obviously tag somebody. I think the big loss would 368 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: be Higgins. Listen, you could Trenton Irwin has some prospects, sure, okay, whatever, 369 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 2: the kid Taylor britt has been good. But this secondary 370 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 2: is not good. The linebackers remain average. Like, I don't 371 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 2: see a lot of great on this Bengals defense. Lamar 372 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 2: Jackson once again had his way. He kind of owns 373 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,959 Speaker 2: these guys, and I don't know why I ended up 374 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 2: taking them, but I took Bengals here and like they 375 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 2: can't really stop Lamar. I will say, Rob Afc, it's 376 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 2: starting to feel like Kansas City, a bit of a 377 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 2: drop off. And then I don't know who would you 378 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: take on our. 379 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: Neutral now would you say that there's a big drop off? 380 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 2: Okay, well, I'll tell you the the two that I 381 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: have after I have Miami in Baltimore in like a 382 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 2: head to head like battle, I don't know who is 383 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: the second best team. We'll find out a little bit 384 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 2: about Miami this weekend. Let's see if they smashed the 385 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: Raiders or they get yeah, they got caught looking ahead. 386 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: I hope so you're rip, but like, I don't know, 387 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 2: I think there's a drop. I don't think the Ravens 388 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 2: are on the same level as the Chiefs. I mean, 389 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 2: we like Lamar, but I think you were the one 390 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 2: who pointed this out. Like a couple of years ago 391 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: here on the pod, it was like, if they go 392 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: down ten in the postseason, it's over, Like they don't 393 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 2: have the ability to come back. And I know they 394 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 2: had one comeback against the I believe it his Tennessee 395 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 2: Titans when the Titans were that joke over number one seed. 396 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 2: But it's like, like this team is great at front 397 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 2: running and then they could just feed the backs. But 398 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 2: it's like, I don't like, I know Odell Beckham at 399 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,199 Speaker 2: another good game. He doesn't scare me. If I'm a 400 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 2: defense like Zay Flowers. That dude's got some juice. He 401 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 2: makes me nervous. I don't are you afraid of Odell Beckham? 402 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:41,959 Speaker 4: I'm not. 403 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 2: And now with Mark Andrews out, it's like, all right, 404 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 2: you know, I'm not really worried like Lamar Jackson, who's 405 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: not running nearly as much. He looks like he's staying 406 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 2: in the pocket more like Baltimore to me, is not 407 00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 2: scary without Mark Andrews. I think defensively, they've they've I 408 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 2: like what they're doing. They really bottled up the Bengals. 409 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 2: Bengals had one play over twenty yards the entire game 410 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 2: to Tanner Hudson. So if anything, it's the Ravens D. 411 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 2: But I'm not betting on any defense in the league 412 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 2: against Mahomes and Reid. Are you in Arrowhead this year? 413 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 3: I might this year. This year the Chiefs have not 414 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 3: been the All Caps Chiefs at all. Yeah, at all. 415 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 3: And to your point about being scared of anybody, I'll 416 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 3: tell you what, There's nobody in the in the AFC 417 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 3: that I'm scared of really Like to me, as far 418 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 3: as you know, on the scary meter, if there's such 419 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 3: a thing, the only two teams that are on it 420 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 3: are the Niners and the Eagles, because they're the only 421 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: ones so far that I've seen that have consistently played well, 422 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 3: like even when they lose. Like like the Niners situation, 423 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: you had the brock Perty concussions, you had them without 424 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 3: two of their top three or four players, so it's 425 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,719 Speaker 3: more understandable for them to lose those games the way 426 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 3: they did. The Eagles. You know, even when they lost 427 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 3: to the to the Jets, like they did enough where 428 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 3: they could have won that game. And the thing is 429 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 3: about the Kansas City Chiefs. I would actually argue that 430 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 3: in the AFC, Baltimore's peak is probably higher than the 431 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs. 432 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 2: Wait which peak offense or defense is all around. 433 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 3: That they can do what they did to the Troit 434 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 3: Lions and the Seattle Seahawks is is a site to behold. 435 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: It's the most dominant things that we've seen this side 436 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: of San Francisco. 437 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 2: It's fair. 438 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 3: The problem with them though, is they have a higher 439 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 3: variance where they could also give you a valley game 440 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 3: and then play terribly the way they did against Pittsburgh 441 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 3: or the way they did against was against the Colts. 442 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 3: The Niners floor is much higher than the Ravens. You're 443 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 3: gonna get a much more consistent performance out of them 444 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 3: than you will from Baltimore. 445 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 2: So, feeling that good about the Eagles and Niners, would 446 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: you then bet NFC to win the Super Bowl? I 447 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 2: would have to look at the odds, but so you 448 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 2: think the NFC would be favored right now. 449 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 3: At this point? Yeah, even though I picked the Chiefs 450 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 3: for the season, but at this point, yeah, absolutely. 451 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 2: Interesting not buying the Chiefs. I guess there's something to 452 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: like not winning in dominant fashion. I like the Monday 453 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 2: against the against the Eagles are gonna be a great game. 454 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's interesting. I would agree with you on 455 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 2: the Niners. I don't think I think the Niners defense 456 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 2: is more scary. But again I'll repeat myself, what does 457 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: defense matter? Like the Eagles defense was amazing last year 458 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: and in the second half Mahomes was I think fourteen 459 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: to fifteen. When they get feel like defense just doesn't matter. 460 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 2: I mean as much in the regular season, Yeah, you 461 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,919 Speaker 2: need to win games with defense, but like I don't know, 462 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 2: even in the playoffs, like Bengals going to Buffalo, run 463 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 2: it right down their throats. You know, Kansas City likes 464 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 2: to play with their food often see Jacksonville in the postseason. 465 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: I mean, they barely squeaked by Jacksonville this year. Like ultimately, 466 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 2: the Chiefs probably are are not getting great looks from 467 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 2: you because you know, you loose to the Broncos and 468 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 2: what we knew was a great danger spot. They lose 469 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: to the Lions without without Chris Jones opening night, they 470 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: don't overwhelm the Jags like they beat the Jag seventeen nine. 471 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 2: Forty nine ers went in there and smashed them thirty 472 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 2: four to three. They barely beat the jet like. The 473 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 2: only convincing win was against the Bears. That was the 474 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 2: first Taylor Swift Travis Kelce game. And otherwise the Chiefs 475 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: have not looked like world beaters. But Rob, I'll end 476 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: with this before we get to Dave Mason. How much 477 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 2: of that is? Guys, We've been to three Super Bowls 478 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 2: and last four or five years, like, regular season doesn't 479 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 2: mean that much. Let's just get out of here. There's 480 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: no style points for winning fifty to ten, you know, 481 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 2: let's just do handle our business, reveal as little as 482 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 2: we can, and just you know, win and move on. 483 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: How much of that is like not regular season apathy, 484 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 2: but it's from I'm guessing it's a little tough for 485 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 2: them to get up for all these games knowing that 486 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 2: they're big favorites, that they're probably super Bowl bound, and 487 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 2: you know, it's all about the playoffs. It isn't really 488 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 2: the regular season. I e. The Golden State Warriors, you know, 489 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 2: the year after they won seventy three with KD Like, oh, 490 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 2: they won seventy three without KD, how are they gonna 491 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: win with KD like seventy six? Like, no, it doesn't 492 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 2: work like that. They knew they were the best. They 493 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 2: took plenty of nights off. I'm not saying the Chiefs 494 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 2: are bagging games, but I just I don't see that 495 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 2: urgency to dominate. Having been to the top of the 496 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 2: mountain that could be true. 497 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 3: The only problem with that argument is they supposedly got 498 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: up for the Dolphins game and A only scored fourteen points. 499 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 2: I think it was in Germany. 500 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 3: Well, I mean just saying so far that they haven't 501 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 3: shown the capability, and Travis Kelsey has said that several 502 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 3: times in his podcast. You know that they got to 503 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 3: get things corrected and he's very disappointed in their performance. 504 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 3: And we'll find out very soon because their schedule is 505 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 3: really coming up, so we'll find out if they have 506 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 3: that extra gear they can get to. 507 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike Tyson had like a lethal knockout punch when 508 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 2: he's throwing haymakers, like lookout, it's over. I don't know 509 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 2: that the Chiefs have that. They don't have Tyreek Hill 510 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 2: game breaking Kelsey's death by a thousand paper cuts like 511 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: Rashi Rice. Come on, even Pacheco slowed down the last 512 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 2: couple weeks.

So we brought 562 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 2: you on to give us an analysis of what the 563 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 2: hell's going on with the books. First of all, it 564 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 2: seems like this season the public is kind of sort 565 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 2: of have its way. They're they're doing really well this season. 566 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 2: Your thoughts, Macro on the gambling NFL this season. 567 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it definitely started out that way. September was, uh, 568 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: you know, it was a grind for us, right. I'm 569 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: not going to say we lost, because that's not true, 570 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: but you know, the margins are down, and you know 571 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: you're always looking at those margins and all those KPIs 572 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: as the marketing people always like to stay you know, 573 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: and uh, your margin is probably the most important KPI 574 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: besides you know, your active of active betters. It all 575 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: goes up and down throughout the season. But yeah, the 576 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: the the margins were a little rough first month, but 577 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: we picked it up. You know, it's that's how the 578 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: football season goes up, down, up, down, up down. You know, 579 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: at the end of the season, you're usually up that 580 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: you know, a certain amount of percentage point. I mean, 581 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: we're we're you know, we take sharp actions, so our 582 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: our our margin, our margin isn't going to be as 583 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: high as some of these other books that you know 584 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: don't want any sharp production. So you know, our our 585 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: margins at the end of the season. You know, we're 586 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: a high volume, low margin book. So we're looking at 587 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: you know, holding right around four percent, four to five 588 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: percent hopefully, and you know in September was around three percent. 589 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 4: So well, yeah, and we're badling back. 590 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: But it's you know, the volume's good that the as 591 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: long as you get the volume in there, and you 592 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: know you've got odds guys who can trade, you know, 593 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: trade the big volume bets, then then you're gonna be good. 594 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 2: All right, all right, let's start with week eleven, so uh, 595 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 2: Sunday on Monday, there were five double digit favorites, and 596 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 2: the lines for three of them have moved significantly. Miami's 597 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 2: out to it looks like thirteen thirteen and a half. 598 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: The Bears have taken money now the Justin Fields is 599 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 2: in and in what it looks to be the biggest shocker, 600 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 2: the New York Giants are taking money with mister DeVito. 601 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's Danny Divdo's kid, but Tommy 602 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 2: DeVito at quarterback. Now, you talk talk me through these. 603 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: I don't think we've had a week yet with five 604 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 2: double digit favorites. We're now down to three. I guess 605 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: your thoughts on those three and the double digit favorite situation. 606 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know it's it's it is. 607 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: The spreads have been pretty tight all year, right, Yeah, 608 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: but but you know we're getting to that part of 609 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: the season where the good teams are good the. 610 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 4: Bad teams are bad. 611 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, so you know that those games, 612 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: it's kind of from an action standpoint, the volume on 613 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: the straight bets is down on those big, those big spreads, which. 614 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 4: Is kind of unfortunate. Yeah, the closer the spread is 615 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 4: to a pick them, the better. 616 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: You know, there's the games that get the most action, 617 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: Like there's three point road chalk, you know, minus four 618 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: you know where it also gets one sided. You know 619 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: where where one team you know it looks looks perceived 620 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: to be a lot better, but they're only given four 621 00:32:58,720 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: on the road. 622 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 4: You know, those the. 623 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: Best, you know, because what you can start getting those 624 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: double digit spreads. You know a lot of people don't 625 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: want to lay that many points, but you know the 626 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: other side factors, the other people don't want to bet 627 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: on the horrible team either. But where you do see 628 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: good action is the teasers and the and the money 629 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: line parlays. I mean, people are teasing all those games down. 630 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: You know, anything over a touchdown, people are just teasing down. Well, 631 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: six and a half is popular too, but you know 632 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: that's when you see those big teasers and this big 633 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: money line parlays. I mean, people parlay all those big 634 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: spreads up together. You know, instead of laying you know, 635 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: eight to fifty on the Dolphins minus eight fifty on 636 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,719 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, they'll they'll couple that with the Cowboys and 637 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: a few others other teams to get them down right 638 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: around to pick them. But you got to win whatever 639 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: four or five games three, four or five games. 640 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 2: So so last week I don't love the double digit favorites, 641 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 2: but I did lay it with Dallas. It was a 642 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 2: it was a great windfall and with it otherwise a 643 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 2: crappy week. This week I did lay it with Miami. 644 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 2: That number just seems to be going to the moon. 645 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 2: I'm curious what are you seeing? Are you seeing? Are 646 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 2: you seeing like sharp action on Miami at twelve or 647 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 2: anybody touching the raiders? What do you see? 648 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: If now we saw sharp action Miami minus ten, minus eleven, 649 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: minus twelve of minus thirteen too, where are we at 650 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: now We're at thirteen and a half. Yeah, so so 651 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: definitely sharp action on Miami. Let me see where the 652 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: public action is here overall overall, not a lot of 653 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 1: oh wait. 654 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 4: That's why is actually sorry? Clicking on a few different 655 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 4: tabs here to see the overall action. Yeah, overall actions 656 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 4: a little closer to even. 657 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: It's about fifty eight percent of cash is on Miami. 658 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: But but yeah, definitely the sharp side is Miami as 659 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: of now. 660 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: Let me go ahead and guess that the public is 661 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: just hand over fist on the Dallas Cowboys. They are 662 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 2: the one road favorite that's double digits. However, and I know, listen, 663 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: trends are whatever you can say with the whatever that 664 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 2: you want. But I have seen the number that and 665 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: I put this out there because we've used it this season. 666 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 2: Home dogs of ten plus on an eighteen and six 667 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 2: ats tear haven't since twenty twenty two eighth to one, 668 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 2: including Dallas went to Arizona earlier this year double digit 669 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 2: favorite lost again. Carolina is borderline unplayable. But I mean, 670 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 2: do you have to kind of consider Dallas off the 671 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: billion point win over the Giants. For me, it's like 672 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 2: Carolina or nothing. But I don't know what do you 673 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 2: is anybody touching Carolina for you? 674 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 4: Uh? 675 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,479 Speaker 1: The action overall action is the money's two to one 676 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: on the Cowboys, beck count even higher than that, it's 677 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 1: about what is it about? 678 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 4: About about about seventy on the Cowboys? Yeah, and again that'll. 679 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: Be one of those where people are teasing it down. 680 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: You know who the heck's gonna bet on the even 681 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, those those trends are kind of music to 682 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: my ears. 683 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 4: You know there's something behind them. 684 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: It Again, you say what you want about friends, but 685 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: still that that tells you, Hey, you know, getting a 686 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: lot of points. This is the NFL getting a lot 687 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: of points at home, is you know? And it makes 688 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 1: sense that being said, it's the Cowboys, right right, a 689 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys versus the god awful Panthers team. So you know, 690 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: how the hell, how the heck do you bet the Panthers? 691 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: But come to your head, I guess you have to 692 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 1: take those points. But but now the public's on the Cowboys. Yeah, 693 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: it's it's again. That'll be one of those teaser games too. 694 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: Most of the money will be on teasers of moneyline parlays. 695 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 2: I mean, well, I like that again, you say that, 696 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 2: but Dave, last week, listen, everybody in their mom had 697 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 2: a Bengals in a moneyline parlay teaser lost. Everybody had 698 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 2: Baltimore money line parlay teaser lost. I had them in 699 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 2: two of them, lost both of them. I wonder if 700 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 2: people are going to be a little skittish going back 701 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 2: to the wells, and I mean people like the small 702 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 2: money better, not the big smart, smart rich guys. But 703 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. I don't see this 704 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 2: as a huge teaser weekend because because the numbers are 705 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 2: so big, maybe like a Vikings, you can put the 706 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 2: vikings in a teaser because Denver can't get margin, and 707 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: then Buffalo down to win. But Buffalo another one. What 708 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 2: were they seven and a half couldn't or seven and 709 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,320 Speaker 2: didn't win against Denver. 710 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 4: People bet it. 711 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking at the teaser actually right down 712 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: this and it's let me see that's it's it's like 713 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: ninety eight percent of the cash on teasers on the 714 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: two options there?

Well, yeah, I guess you 718 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 2: could go through seven, but you're not getting through three. 719 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 4: No, you're not getting through three. It doesn't matter. 720 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 2: They just they they don't care. 721 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. 722 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,240 Speaker 2: I mean the book, the book, you know, the book. 723 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: As far as money line on money line parlays, that 724 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 1: is ninety seven Nah, yeah, about ninety six nine percent 725 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: the cash on money line parlays is on Dallas.

I thought Dallas would get there. 748 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 2: I thought Miami would. But it doesn't sound like your 749 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 2: shot bet online. 750 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 4: Well, it's still early. I mean we're we're still talking.

I 816 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 2: don't know if that's an indictment of Watson or DTR 817 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 2: or Steelers. I don't know. Talk to me about how 818 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 2: you guys handicapped that move. 819 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, we went from four and now it's one, so 820 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: I guess that's three points. 821 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 4: But you know you. 822 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: Cross the three too, so that's that's more than just 823 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: one point in value, right, So I. 824 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 4: Mean his injury might have been cooked in baked into 825 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 4: the that four two. 826 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: So you know we have him at about four four 827 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 1: or five points, four and a half points. You know, 828 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: it's not like this is a DeShawn even though he 829 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: played good last weekend, it's not. Yeah, you know, this 830 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: isn't the Shawn Watson of pre legal issues here. Then 831 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: you're talking probably seven points, right. He hasn't been the 832 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,479 Speaker 1: very mobile, you know. It's so, I mean, he's still 833 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 1: worth four to five points, you know, probably closer to five, 834 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: but you know it's not that that Shaun Watson of 835 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:10,959 Speaker 1: a number of years ago. 836 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 2: Well, the quarterbacks are interesting because I'm sure some people 837 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 2: saw Tyson Pagent was in and it was ten and 838 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,839 Speaker 2: a half and then Justin Fields is in it's nine 839 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 2: and a half or nine, and I'm like, geez Fields. 840 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 2: I mean, people, I guess just don't think that highly 841 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 2: of them. The books. What do you what do you 842 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 2: what is fields worth of Watson three three and a 843 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 2: half four? What's Field one and a half? 844 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:29,879 Speaker 4: Two? 845 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, well we're at we're at a line seven and 846 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 1: a half now. 847 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 4: So oh yeah yeah, yeah, so. 848 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: He's worth two to three points, you know, I mean, 849 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,399 Speaker 1: you know, it's been struggling to I mean his last 850 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 1: two outings are good. 851 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 4: Right, he had what was Washington had four touchdowns and 852 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 4: zero no, no, for sure, So he's he was. 853 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 1: Turning around right before he got injured, right, Yeah, some 854 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: really good outings and they were able to put some 855 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,399 Speaker 1: points on the board, and then he got injured and 856 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: fell fount in her face. But yeah, I mean that's 857 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: a that's a two and a half, two and a 858 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 1: half one from ten and now it's seven and a half. 859 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 1: So that's that's two and a half. It's probably what 860 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: he's worth two and a half to three and a 861 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: lot of his backup. Course, you know, we always concentrate, 862 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 1: we over hear how much is a quarterback worth? How 863 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: much is a quarterback worth to a spread? I mean, 864 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: it's kind of what people don't talk about either, is 865 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 1: the flip, Well, what's that backup quarterback forth too? You 866 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 1: know that that that factors in the equation and and uh, 867 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 1: you know, but three points justin field sounds about right 868 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: versus that backup. Now, if heinik Ors somebody you know, 869 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 1: a better backup, or Minshew or there's somebody like that, 870 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 1: a better backup was backing them up, then you know, 871 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: not that minshe's a backup anymore, but then then yeah, 872 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 1: not as much. 873 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 4: So it's it's there's two factors in there. How much 874 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:49,439 Speaker 4: a quarterback is worth? 875 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: Uh? 876 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 2: The divisional matchups are seven of them this week early 877 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 2: in the season. I just got destroyed on the divisional matchups. 878 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 2: It was painful. I think I'm gonna be on Chicago 879 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 2: in the content this week. I mean it was at 880 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 2: nine earlier. I haven't looked at the lines yet, but like, 881 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 2: I kind of like Chicago, and I'm I'm looking at 882 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 2: a lot of the dogs in the vision. It's like, 883 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 2: for me, it's giants are passed the one I can't 884 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 2: wrap my head around. Help me here. What are you 885 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 2: seeing on Jacksonville, Tennessee. It's a crap game. It's Will Levis. 886 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: I know nobody likes the division. Jacksonville off a brutal loss. 887 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 2: Tennessee looked like garbage against Tampa. But I'm seeing what 888 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,760 Speaker 2: six and a half? Seven? It's just going hot above 889 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 2: seven to seven and a half or down to six 890 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 2: and a half. 891 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll six opened a six and a 892 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: half At six and a half now that the action 893 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,359 Speaker 1: is horrible, it's at least picking on. 894 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,720 Speaker 4: The board right now. I mean that there's no making 895 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 4: that one sound pretty man. I mean the action we 896 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 4: did take eighty. 897 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 1: Percent of the cast and seventy five percent of the 898 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 1: betters are on Jaguars, but that's kind of a small 899 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,359 Speaker 1: sample size. This will be a big teaser game too. 900 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,239 Speaker 1: I mean there'll be so much that this will be 901 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:56,800 Speaker 1: a no one will be betting this straight, but teaser 902 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: teaser action will be through the roof on the jag 903 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 1: Is betting it down to a pick or misquen or 904 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: pick that's going to be the play there. 905 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 2: I got knocked out of one of my Survivor leagues 906 00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: in week two on the freaking CJ strout on the road, 907 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 2: or maybe it was week three beating Jacksonville like thirty 908 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 2: seven to seventeen, and I have like PTSD had trouble 909 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: going back to Jacksonville. Man, I mean that lost hurt, dude. 910 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 2: That was a game where I think the Houston guy 911 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 2: had like a full a white fullback who ran back 912 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 2: a kickoff for a touchdown. I was like, what's happening yet? 913 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 2: So I don't know about Jacksonville. Now, I will say 914 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 2: this the sneaky divisional matchup that I kind of like, 915 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 2: and I've laid it. Are the Rams at home against Seattle? 916 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 2: It sounds like it's going to be Stafford. Is that official? 917 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 4: Yeah? 918 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: I believe so, yeah, I believe. So we open Seattle 919 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 1: mines two and a half down the one. Yeah, I 920 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: saw some sharp on Seattle plus one. They're getting points 921 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: at a point and then LA plus two and a 922 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 1: half actions pretty shoppy bets are on Seattle. Fifty six 923 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: percent of cash is on LA. So so yeah, I 924 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,439 Speaker 1: get again, not too much action on that one yet. 925 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough. The My logic would just be McVeigh 926 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 2: owns Carroll. Like in this divisional matchup, he covers the 927 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 2: spread every single time against the sixth straight. I mean 928 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 2: he just dominates THI yeah, and and like I mean 929 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 2: they rolled him in week one without Cooper Cup. Now 930 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 2: you bring Cooper Cup back. Like, I like Seattle a lot, man. 931 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 2: I just every week up and practically every week back, 932 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 2: and they can't stop anybody the secondary that's supposed to 933 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,959 Speaker 2: be so hyped. I mean, Sam Howell looked like Joe 934 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 2: Thaisman last week. I mean, I don't know if you 935 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,520 Speaker 2: saw that, Like he went up and down the field 936 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: against him in the second. 937 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 4: Half well, he sold me. I'm betting the Rams after this, 938 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,840 Speaker 4: after I get off this interview, please. 939 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 2: No, But but are you seeing You're not seeing anything 940 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 2: on Ram Seattle here. It's probably a low, low bed game, right, It's. 941 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 1: It's nothing great, but it's it's about the middle of 942 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,280 Speaker 1: the road. The action is close to fifty to fifty. 943 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: A little bit more on on the Rams. Let me 944 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: see if there's anything sharp here. Actually, yeah, there is 945 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: some sharp there whereas it's Rams is the sharper side. 946 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 2: I believe there, it is there. 947 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 4: It is. 948 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 2: It's not me though, but it's someone all right. We 949 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 2: could wrap up with the big Monday night game, obviously 950 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,280 Speaker 2: the rematch of the Super Bowl. I'm gonna go ahead 951 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 2: and assume if this were Sunday night football would be 952 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: one of the most bet games of the season. And 953 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 2: maybe that's still the case on Monday. But I'm assuming 954 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 2: not a ton of bets on this one yet, or 955 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 2: what are we seeing? 956 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 1: It's well, a ton of Kansas City bets. It is definitely, Yeah, 957 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 1: that's definitely the now it's gonna be. It's gonna be 958 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: a good one. It's gonna be a big one. Super 959 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 1: Bowl rematch Kansas City's getting more bets. What did I 960 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 1: say earlier about Yeah, like seventy three percent early action 961 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: is on Kansas City. Nothing sharp yet. There hasn't been 962 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 1: much of a line move at all. So so now 963 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 1: this will be a monster and will definitely need the 964 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 1: Eagles on Monday Night without a doubt. I mean unless 965 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: it goes yeah, absolutely, I mean that two and a half. 966 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 1: If that goes, if that goes to three, then which 967 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:08,879 Speaker 1: is headed that way? Because it's two and a half 968 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: minus one eighteen? 969 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 2: So can you guys tell me how you how you 970 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,800 Speaker 2: determined two and a half without you don't have to 971 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: give away the secret sauce, But like, why wouldn't this 972 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 2: automatically be three? 973 00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 4: You know, I'm confused about that too. You know. 974 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: In my own personal power rankings, I have Casey a 975 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: little bit of Philly. I mean, the Eagles are coming 976 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: off of by they were banged up, and hopefully they'll 977 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 1: be healthy going into the game. You know, But I mean, 978 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: I I'm confused myself why that isn't three. I really am. 979 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 1: I'm shocked by it, and that that's hence the one 980 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 1: sided action, which is you know, uh that tells me 981 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: something too, though, because whenever I see these where it 982 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: confuses me. 983 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 4: But we're getting one. 984 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 1: Side of the action, but we're staying staying put, you know, 985 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: we're taking a side that I kind of tells you something. 986 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: A book's taken a side on something like that. So 987 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 1: which is final me because I'm from Philly and I'll 988 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 1: be room for the Eagles and there is. 989 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:04,280 Speaker 4: A lot more fun winners. 990 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's a lot more fun when uh, when 991 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: we need them to. 992 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 2: Let me do. So I read this. I don't know 993 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:12,759 Speaker 2: this guy. I mentioned him a couple of times on 994 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 2: the pod. Jeff Fogel, I don't know if you know. 995 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,280 Speaker 2: Vegas guy puts out like this newsletter thing on gambling, 996 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 2: and his theory is if the line is two and 997 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 2: a half, it means the sharps don't want the favorite. 998 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 2: Otherwise we see three. And does this mean that the 999 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 2: sharp big money will come in maybe later closure to 1000 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 2: kickoff on the Eagles, because if it were already in, 1001 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 2: it would be on the Chiefs. We'd see three. Just 1002 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 2: talk a little bit about the two and a half 1003 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 2: because two and a half and three and a half 1004 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,399 Speaker 2: are obviously right around the key number three. 1005 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: Right, Absolutely, No, I mean that's a good point, but uh, 1006 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 1: you know, it's I mean, it's still you know, sometimes 1007 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 1: sharps just don't pile in the lake. I mean it's 1008 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: it's you know, as limits go up, you know, limits 1009 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: go up through the week, and sometimes they're really going 1010 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 1: to make a play. They want the limits up everywhere 1011 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: where they can maximize their play. But but you know, 1012 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:07,919 Speaker 1: if it stays two and a half, I don't see 1013 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: how the sharps don't take case. But again, maybe I'm 1014 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: just looking at the very square point of view. You know. Yeah, 1015 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 1: we took a little bit of sharp action on both sides, 1016 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 1: you know, Casey minus two and a half and Philly 1017 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:22,879 Speaker 1: plus two and a half. 1018 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:27,919 Speaker 4: Nothing substantial, just a little bit, but there's nothing there 1019 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 4: at the moment. 1020 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,880 Speaker 2: Because I contrasted with that Chargers packers. So where are 1021 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 2: you guys on that You're at a flat three? 1022 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:34,879 Speaker 4: Right? 1023 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 2: Or is it three juice. 1024 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 4: Or what chargers packers? Let me see that? Yeah, three 1025 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 4: three minus one sixteen? 1026 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 2: Okay, so you're headed toward three and a half, right. 1027 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 4: I don't think it will get to three and a half. 1028 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,239 Speaker 4: But if it's going to go either way, it's going 1029 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 4: to go to three and a half. 1030 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 1: I mean it wasn't three All well, there you go, 1031 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 1: it wasn't. Looking at the action, now was it three 1032 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,359 Speaker 1: and a half? We got impact sharp sharp money plus three? 1033 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,839 Speaker 4: Interesting? Yeah, there's yeah, there's they got hit. 1034 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 2: The Chargers are almost like a team I cannot bet 1035 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: on at this point.
