00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: This is the Action Network Podcast, and it.

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: Is good.

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 3: All right.

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: Here we go.

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 3: Throwing in joy spectagular catch. They're saying, it's a catch

6
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 3: to star.

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: We see most gamblers when they go to gamble, they

8
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 2: go to win. God, that's incredible. Big bank, small bank.

9
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: I like to make money.

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 3: All right.

11
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 2: This is the ultimate Kabaia and we are underway.

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Action Network Podcast. I'm Brandon Anderson, joined

13
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 3: as all is by Raheem Palmer. We are here to

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 3: wrap up a wild week three. Today was a day

15
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 3: for unders and underdogs. Unders we're ten and four on

16
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 3: the day, including two by a point each that we

17
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 3: will definitely get talking about later. Underdogs nine and five

18
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: against the spread, yet again dominating six outright wins by underdogs.

19
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 3: Today we are three weeks into the season. We are

20
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: down to five unbeaten teams, and just like everyone thought,

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 3: it's the Rams, the Cardinals, the Panthers, the Broncos, and

22
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,559
Speaker 3: the Raiders. What are we doing here? Rahim? It looked

23
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 3: like you had a big day today.

24
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean I didn't really know. I wouldn't say I

25
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 2: had a big day. I think I did well. You

26
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: know last week on the Hot Read, I gave out

27
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: the Green Bay Packers plus three and a half. Actually

28
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: I gave out plus four that hit, and then Arizona

29
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: Cardinals that hit, But I mean I think those were

30
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 2: square plays. Interestingly enough, you spoke about underdogs. Well, let

31
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 2: me add another element on to that. Underdogs of six

32
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: or less are sixteen and two this year. So that's

33
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: how crazy things are right now. I mean, it's really

34
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: exciting time in the NFL. Let's get into it. Like,

35
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: we got a lot of exciting games to talk about.

36
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 3: So absolutely, but we're going to, as usual, a run

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 3: through the entire Sunday slate. We'll do betting takeaways from

38
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 3: every game, and then we will preview Monday Night Football

39
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: with a pick for that and finish up with our

40
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: Week four Hot read and get some early winners as

41
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 3: we have been doing each Sunday Night for you. As

42
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 3: all is odds today are from bet MGM, the official

43
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 3: odds provider of the Action Network podcast. We're gonna start

44
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: with the Big Upset today, my Upset special from Week three,

45
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: the Los Angeles Chargers thirty the Kansas City Chiefs twenty four.

46
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: This is one of those games that went under by

47
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 3: a point. We'll come back to that in a second,

48
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 3: but the Chargers covered the seven got the win plus

49
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 3: two point fifty on the money line. The Chiefs are

50
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 3: one and two. Where do we start with this one?

51
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: I think the first place we start is turnovers. I

52
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 2: mean that completely changed this game. The Chiefs were driving down,

53
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 2: they had to fumble by clat Edwards Hilaire. They had

54
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 2: the interception in which Patrick Mahomes is basically Steph Curry

55
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: in the NBA Finals throwing He's throwing it behind the

56
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: back pass, but but no, really, he really went out

57
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 2: there and threw a no look pass and if he's

58
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 2: actually looking, it's probably on target. The Chiefs probably go

59
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: ahead and score there. And you have too many turnovers.

60
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 2: They you know what they say, Teams who win the

61
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 2: turnover battle win seventy percent at the time, and the

62
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 2: Chiefs have four turnovers. And they were right there. They

63
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: actually had to lead towards the end of the game.

64
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: When you look at the boss score, both of these

65
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: teams played pretty equal. The Chargers seven point one yards

66
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: per pass, Chiefs five point five yards per pass, yards

67
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: per rush. It looked like, obviously the Chargers were trying

68
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: to put them in a place to where they had

69
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: to run the ball. She said, six twenty two yards

70
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: per rush. If it's not for the turnovers, I think

71
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: the Chiefs actually go out there and cover this game.

72
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 2: But you can't give a team life. But obviously got

73
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: to give some the credit, the charge of some credit,

74
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: because they went out there and forced those turnovers, and

75
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: then Justin Herbert continues to be a star. Twenty six

76
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: to thirty eight, two hundred and eighty one yards. It's

77
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: for a touchdown. I don't know what they were doing

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 2: at the end. Can you tell me what we're to

79
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: stately doing?

80
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 3: That was an absolute mess. So if you miss this one,

81
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: let's see from my notes here. So the Chargers had

82
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: I think something like second and four with about forty

83
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: seconds left. Chiefs had one time out, and look, I'm

84
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 3: all for being aggressive. I'm not settling for a field goal.

85
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 3: The Chargers are already in field goal range and it's

86
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 3: tied at this point, and normally I'm all for, don't settle.

87
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 3: Just keep moving the ball, keep getting some yardage. Now

88
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 3: when you're playing Patrick Mahomes. Now, when you're in arrowhead

89
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 3: against Patrick Mahomes, just run twice burn the last time out,

90
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 3: kick the field goal and get out of here. If

91
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 3: you miss it, at least you're in overtime. At least

92
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: you didn't have a chance to lose in a regulation. Instead,

93
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 3: they call two pass plays like three seconds each incomplete nothing.

94
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 3: So now it's fourth and four. So you bring up

95
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 3: the field goal unit, right, Nope, no field goal unit.

96
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 3: We're going for it. So Staley sends out the offense.

97
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, what are we doing. Oh, we're just

98
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 3: gonna like burn a time out, see if we can

99
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 3: get him to jump off side. Sure, sure, whatever. No,

100
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 3: we got a false start, so now we're backed up

101
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 3: five yards. Now our field goal is long, and now

102
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: we're still going for it, maybe because the field goal

103
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: is too long. I don't know what the plan actually

104
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 3: was there, but then they somehow pull it off. Well,

105
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 3: the refs pulled off. We got a bit of a

106
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 3: questionable I don't know. I think it was the right

107
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: call pass interference, but they definitely got bailed out a

108
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: little bit. Then you get down the into the near

109
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 3: the end zone, and for the second straight week, the

110
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 3: Chargers score touchdown that gets taken off the board by

111
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 3: an illegal shift penalty on the goal line. Like only

112
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 3: the Chargers are able to do this week after a week,

113
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 3: and then they throw the touchdown when they all they

114
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: need to do is just run the ball, run the

115
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 3: clock down, and kick the one yard field goal. And instead,

116
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 3: even Tony Romo was like, Wow, nice throw, but what

117
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 3: are you doing? Like they throw this beautiful pass to

118
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 3: Mike Williams, and then, of course, because it's the Chargers,

119
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 3: you missed the extra point, so that's where we got

120
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: the under. The total was fifty. We finished out fifty four,

121
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 3: So if you had the over, sorry, you at least

122
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 3: had a push coming out of this. But it's the Chargers,

123
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: so luck no luck for you. And then we gave

124
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 3: it back to the Chiefs down six. I just thought

125
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 3: it was done at that point. The Chiefs are gonna

126
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 3: go down and get the touchdown, get the win. But

127
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 3: Staley's defense did just enough. I liked what they did

128
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 3: early in the first in the first half, second half,

129
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 3: it seemed like the Chiefs kind of figured out, Okay,

130
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 3: we got into it with them. We're doing these cross

131
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: routes underneath. Just get the ball to Tar Week and

132
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 3: Mikole and Travis Kelcey, and it felt like if this

133
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,119
Speaker 3: had got any longer, the Chiefs may have really pulled

134
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 3: out a head, but I don't know. Somehow the Chargers

135
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 3: actually managed to win one of these things where everything

136
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 3: went wrong. I have no idea what Staley and everyone

137
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 3: was doing down the stretch. That was the worst. I

138
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: can't say it's the worst game management. That was like

139
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 3: the best game management the Chargers have done, because they

140
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: screw everything up even worse than that usually. But I

141
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 3: don't know, did you make any heads or tails of it?

142
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: It was just absolutely mind bogglin at the time. I

143
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 2: don't understand how you just don't run you run the

144
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 2: ball at the end of the game and kick a

145
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 2: field goal, Like, why are you throwing fades? It just

146
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 2: it was so bizarre. I've never seen anything like it.

147
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: But I think I mean, ultimately the story game was turnovers.

148
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: Charge to score twenty one points off of those turnovers.

149
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: Charges still have the penalty problems. Chiefs actually had their

150
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 2: problems with penalties as well.

151
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: So the Chiefs turn it over on their first three drives.

152
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: The Chargers score two touchdowns. The Chargers are good. We

153
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 3: all think the Chargers are good. We're a minute until halftime,

154
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: and I noticed at this point it's fourteen to nothing.

155
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 3: The Chiefs are driving a little bit, and just out

156
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: of curiosity, I went on to check the odds. The

157
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: Chiefs are minus one, twenty five, down fourteen at almost halftime.

158
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 3: The Chiefs, you just can't kill them. The Chiefs are

159
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 3: two back in the division now. They're under five hundred

160
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 3: under Andy Reid for the first time ever, which is nuts.

161
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 2: That is really nuts.

162
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 3: And they're playing in Buffalo on Sunday night in a

163
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: couple of weeks.

164
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 2: They're going to struggle to win a Super Bowl with

165
00:07:58,280 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: his defense.

166
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 3: But the sky's when your defense plays this bad and

167
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 3: you turn over four times, but you still have Pat

168
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 3: Mahomes and Andy Reid and you still almost win. Anyways,

169
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 3: that's it. That's the cheat code. So yeah, let's move

170
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 3: on to what was our big game of the day.

171
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 3: Staying in Los Angeles, it's a Los Angeles day. The

172
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 3: Chargers got their big win, so did the Rams. The

173
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 3: Rams played the Tampa Bay Buccaneers our big game of

174
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 3: the afternoon, thirty four to twenty four for the Rams.

175
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 3: Wasn't even really that close. That one hit the over

176
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 3: thanks to a garbage time touchdown with a minute left.

177
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 3: So thank you Tom Brady for that Tom didn't do

178
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 3: a whole lot Otherwise, this was a Matthew Stafford game.

179
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 3: So you were all over the rams on this one.

180
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 3: I missed this one. I was a Bucks guy here.

181
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 3: So what did you see in the rams? And is

182
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 3: this what you expected?

183
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 2: This is exactly what I expected. Now, obviously I expected

184
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 2: a little better performance from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but

185
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: when you look at the box score, it's actually more interested.

186
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if the box like the actual score

187
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 2: a game, the tenpoint game is indicative of what we

188
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 2: saw the box sport tep big Buccaneers had twenty seven

189
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 2: first downs, six point three yards per play, seven point

190
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 2: one yards per pass. They didn't do they didn't do

191
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 2: well in the run game, but they moved the ball

192
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 2: at will. But the thing I saw coming into this

193
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 2: game is that obviously they were They're without Sean Murphy,

194
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 2: but he's on injured reserve. Jamel Dean got hurt. They

195
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 2: were missing Jason Pierre Paul, So you're looking at this defense.

196
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 2: One of the things I'm starting to notice is that

197
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: you can have a dominant defensive line. You can have

198
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 2: Vita Veay, you can have a Dominican Sue you can

199
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 2: have William Gholston, you can have this these dominant defensive lines,

200
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: but if your secondary can't hold up in today's NFL,

201
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 2: you're gonna struggle. And we saw that Week one against

202
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys. Dallas Cowboys passed all over. They probably

203
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: should have won that game being that they they won

204
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 2: the turnover margin. But I felt like Sean McVay, he

205
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: had the blueprint. Like I said last actually we actually

206
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 2: did this game on head to head off and I

207
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: mentioned that teams are passing on first downs, well early

208
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 2: downs seventy seven percent of the time. Last year when

209
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: the Rams played the Bucks, they did the same thing.

210
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 2: So when you actually looked at this game today on

211
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: early downs, they actually had twenty nine plays on early

212
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: downs in which they passed on the only rush nineteen

213
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: times on early downs. So that's where you're gonna find

214
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: success against this secondaries. It's really really a problem for

215
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 2: this Bucks team. I think I'm gonna be honest with you,

216
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: I think the Bucks are in trouble. And I don't

217
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 2: want to say the sky is falling because I think

218
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: this offense is good enough to carry them through whatever.

219
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 2: But if you have a secondary that can't really stop anybody.

220
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: It's kind of similar to the Chiefs.

221
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, going into the season, the Bucks to me had

222
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 3: clearly the best overall roster. I mean, that's hard to

223
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 3: argue with that. They're the Super Bowl champion and they

224
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 3: brought back the entire lineup. But the two spots that

225
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 3: I was a little bit concerned that if the season

226
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 3: went to arrive, the two spots I was thinking it

227
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 3: might be was the secondary in the offensive line, and

228
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 3: that's right where the worry is starting to creep up.

229
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 3: The secondary is not creeping up. The secondary. The worry

230
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 3: is here is flashing red and it was rough and

231
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 3: offensive line not a huge worry yet, but it's getting

232
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 3: there a little bit. Brady was definitely under some pressure today.

233
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 3: You know, it's Aaron Donald, so no real shame there.

234
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 3: But you know, I noted in the first half, Toshan

235
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: Jackson got open, wide open deep in the first quarter,

236
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: Stafford missed him, under threw him. Deshan Jackson got wide

237
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: open deep in the second quarter, Stafford missed him, overthrew him,

238
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 3: and I had that noted in at halftime, and apparently

239
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 3: Sean mcvad did too, because they came right back out

240
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 3: and like maybe a minute into the second half, to

241
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 3: Sean Jackson was wide open again and this time Stafford

242
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 3: hit him and that kind of blew the game open.

243
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 3: I was twenty one to seven, I think at that point,

244
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 3: and the Bucks did score again. But I noted that

245
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 3: the Rams they got stopped the first two drives of

246
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 3: the game, and then they scored on six drives in

247
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 3: a row, and you do not expect that on this

248
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 3: Tampa Bay defense. We think of the Bucks defense as

249
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: this dominant unit, and I think that there is You

250
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 3: have to give some credit to the Rams offense that

251
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 3: has been really good and consistent this season, but there's

252
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: definitely a bit of a worry with the Bucks and

253
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 3: that secondary the corners are getting picked on. Stafford threw

254
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 3: four touchdowns. Stafford now has has had at least nine

255
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 3: yards per attempt all three of his games this season.

256
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: Cooper Cup is just unstoppable. Their connection has been really

257
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: good there. I will say too, I noticed what you did,

258
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 3: which is that the box score made this look relatively close.

259
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 3: But the thing is too that late Bucks touchdown drive

260
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 3: those thirty four to seventeen, and the Bucks had a

261
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 3: fourteen play eighty eight yard touchdown drive that was all

262
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 3: but meaningless at that point because it scored at the

263
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 3: minute left. So if you take that drive off, when

264
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 3: you know the Rams are how you just let them

265
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 3: kind of run the clock, then it definitely the box

266
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 3: reflects the Rams being the better team as they'll wear

267
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 3: And yeah, I don't know what would you say. You know,

268
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: the Bucks and the Chiefs. They're the super Bowl last year.

269
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 3: Of course they're the super Bowl favorites. They both lost

270
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 3: today and we're a little worried about both of them.

271
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 3: If you had to pick one of those teams right

272
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 3: now to make the Super Bowl, would you pick the

273
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 3: Bucks or would you pick the Chiefs.

274
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 2: I'm going with the Bucks because I think the Bucks

275
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 2: have a higher sealing. I still think they have a

276
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 2: dominant defensive line, and I think their secondary is gonna

277
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 2: as these guys get healthy, they'll be better. I think

278
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 2: the Chiefs don't have the talent that the Bucks have

279
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 2: on defense. Now. I want to change courses a little

280
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: bit because I think the Rams have some issues as

281
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 2: well as great as they look. I don't want to

282
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 2: put them up there as world beater status because right

283
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: now they can't run the ball and we've seen Stafford

284
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: in Detroit when he has to when he has to

285
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: do everything, if he doesn't have a run game, he

286
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,599
Speaker 2: can make some mistakes. So I think that's something to

287
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 2: monitor going forward. I think the Rams defense they have

288
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 2: their issues as well. Like the Bucks were moving the ball,

289
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 2: Like I know a lot of this game was garbage

290
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 2: chime towards the end, but they the Bucks had no

291
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 2: problem moving the ball. They just kind of stalled out

292
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 2: on drop. So I'm not I don't want to annoy

293
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 2: the Rams and Super Bowl champions yet, Like I don't

294
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: want to jump off that bridge yet, and I want

295
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 2: to make sure everybody kind of sees that because I

296
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 2: think them not being able to run the ball and

297
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: the defense not being as strong as it was last year.

298
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 2: On the stately, we got to hold our horses a

299
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 2: little bit.

300
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 3: Well, let's go to San Francisco. Then that was our

301
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 3: Sunday night game. The forty nine Ers hosted the Green

302
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 3: Bed Packers. I gotta be honest, we put this one

303
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 3: on our marquee and then as I got the halftime,

304
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 3: I was like, we might need to move this one

305
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 3: down the line up a little bit. The Packers were

306
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 3: running away with this game. I felt like Aaron Rodgers

307
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 3: and Devanta Adams were just connecting anytime they wanted to.

308
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 3: It's seventeen to nothing just before halftime, and honestly, it

309
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 3: seemed like should have been twenty to nothing, twenty four

310
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 3: to nothing. This game was over, and then it wasn't.

311
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 3: The forty nine Ers came all the way back, went

312
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 3: back and forth. The forty nine Ers somehow took the lead,

313
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 3: and unfortunately they left thirty seven seconds and no timeouts

314
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: left for Aaron Rodgers, which of course is at least

315
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: thirty five seconds too many for Aaron Rodgers. So it

316
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 3: gets the ball back and you know, on the touchback

317
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 3: one play to Devonte Adams twenty five yards, another play

318
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: seventeen yards Mason Crosby, as always with the kick, Packers

319
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: win thirty to twenty eight. We hit the over pretty

320
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 3: easily on that one. The Packers did finish at plus three,

321
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: so they covered and were a plus one thirty five

322
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 3: money line. I think we had four or five three

323
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: point road underdogs that won outright today, So this was

324
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 3: a weird one to me. It felt like the Packers

325
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 3: dominated and then somehow escaped with a win that they

326
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 3: should have won. By a double Didjets.

327
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: I think when I watched this game, it felt like

328
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers just never got it going until

329
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 2: they made that the stop. They made a stop towards

330
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 2: the beginning of the second quarter. I think it was

331
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 2: ten minutes in the second quarter. The Packers are driving,

332
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 2: they go for it on four to one, and then

333
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 2: it felt like the forty nine Ers kind of woke

334
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 2: up from there. But the thing that stood out to

335
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 2: me about this game is that the fort nine Ers

336
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: really really really struggled on early downs. Like they were

337
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: seven of eleven on third downs in this game, but

338
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: on early downs they had just a forty four percent

339
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 2: success rate. They generated first downs on just twenty two

340
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: percent of their early downs. They had an early down

341
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: EPA of minus one point three. Early down passing was

342
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: a pure struggle, just forty two percent success rate. It

343
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: felt like they abandoned the run, and that was the

344
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: thing that I thought would give them an edge in

345
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 2: this matchup. Now I like the Packers, but I felt

346
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 2: like the four Nineals will be able to run the

347
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 2: ball down the Packers' throat, and they only ran twelve

348
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: twelve run plays on early downs throughout this entire game,

349
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: so we didn't see that run game really take over

350
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 2: and dominate the way they did when they played two

351
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 2: matches in twenty nineteen. It felt like the Packers. And

352
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: one of the things that I'm noticing once again is

353
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 2: that these teams, even if you have a dominant pass rush,

354
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 2: they're getting the ball out early and negating and neutralizing

355
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 2: that pass rush. And with the forty nine Ers issues

356
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 2: in the secondary, I know a Manuo Mosley came back,

357
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: but Aaron Rodgers had no problem fitting doms around him.

358
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 2: Jason Verretti is obviously out this secondary is it's really

359
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 2: a problem on the level of the Bucks, and I

360
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 2: felt like Aaron Rodgers was able to capitalize on that.

361
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 2: So I think that's the big thing that I see

362
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 2: from the forty nine Ers going forward. I know they

363
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 2: played the Seattle Seahawks next week and that secondary is

364
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 2: gonna be a real issue against Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf

365
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 2: and Russell Wilson, So that's something to look forward to.

366
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a problem for sure, and I think I

367
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,959
Speaker 3: would say it's a problem much even bigger than the

368
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 3: Bucks secondary, just because these cornerbacks keep getting hurt. Josh

369
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 3: Norman left hurt today and didn't get to finish. You know,

370
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 3: they're gonna have to bring someone else in again. They're

371
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 3: running out of body is let alone guys who are good. Yeah,

372
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 3: the Packers could pass anytime they wanted. Devanta Adams just

373
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: you know, the connection with Rogers so good. You could

374
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 3: just find that soft spot in the zone. I mean,

375
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 3: how do you have thirty seven seconds left, no timeouts

376
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 3: and let Devonte Adams get open in the middle of

377
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: your zone with like a linebacker practically on coverage. You know,

378
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 3: Warner is a great linebacker, but he's not the guy

379
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 3: that you want covering DeVante Adams when your only job

380
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 3: is just keep it in front of you and run clock.

381
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 3: Like you know, they talked on the broadcast. One sack

382
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 3: it basically ends the game. Like thirty seven seconds, you

383
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,959
Speaker 3: get anything in bounds where it's not going forward, and

384
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 3: that's that's basically it. So the secondary just kept getting

385
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 3: burned though. And the other thing too in this game

386
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 3: is it not that this is new, but Jimmy Garoppolo

387
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 3: just is not that dude, and it feels like it's

388
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 3: a little bit on him and a little bit that

389
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,919
Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan knows it and isn't really willing to let

390
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 3: him due a whole lot with it. It was really frustrating.

391
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 3: Right before halftime, seventeen to nothing, the Packers had scored,

392
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 3: and then the Niners got a huge kickoff return that

393
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 3: put a little life into them, and so they get

394
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 3: down into the red zone and I swear they had

395
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 3: to have like six plays trying to score a touchdown

396
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 3: right before halftime and just doing nothing, absolutely nothing. But

397
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 3: they got a a penalty in the end zones they

398
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 3: got even more chances. Kudos to Kyle Shanahan for going

399
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 3: for it. Two seconds on the clock and he's up

400
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 3: to the field goal and sends my guy Trey Lance

401
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 3: out there, who immediately just runs in. Trent Williams blocked

402
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 3: some poor Packers defensive back like into oblivion off the edge,

403
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 3: and I don't know what does Trey Lance have to

404
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: do to get more time on the field. This was

405
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 3: the game to put him out there. The Packers run

406
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: defense was vulnerable, and I think Trey Lance could have

407
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 3: had some big numbers if they'd given him a chance

408
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 3: to run, you know, more than one play. Sometime in

409
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 3: the game, we traded away half of our draft picks

410
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 3: get Taysom Hill for a play like it's ridiculous. Garoppolo

411
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: credit words due. He had that late drive eight plays,

412
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 3: seventy five yards and go ahead touchdown. So you know,

413
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 3: he made a couple of big, big throws on there,

414
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 3: although tight windows, and really it felt more like his

415
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 3: receivers making big plays and holding on a tough catches.

416
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 2: But it felt like he threw some interceptable passes there,

417
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: and he was he was just super lucky tonight.

418
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 3: Well, and let's not forget too that the reason they

419
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 3: had to have that drive is because he was getting

420
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 3: sacked and tried to throw it away backwards and fumbled

421
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 3: it and put the Packers right into field goal territory.

422
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 3: And then I certainly thought, so they get the field

423
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 3: goal they're down six, which never do that. Don't go

424
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 3: for the field goal to go down six. The Packers

425
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 3: should have gone for it. So the Niners get the

426
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 3: ball back, and I could have sworn Garoppolo threw it

427
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 3: backwards the very next play. Again we didn't review it

428
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 3: or anything, but they threw like a sideways pass that

429
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 3: went backwards out of bounds. I was certain that he

430
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 3: had two straight backward passes. I don't know what's happening here.

431
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 3: The Niners. The only reason to me that they were

432
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 3: in this game is that they had unsustainably hot finishing

433
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 3: when they had to. They're four for four in the

434
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 3: red zone. There was seven to eleven on third down,

435
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 3: and you're just not going to get that most of

436
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 3: the time. So this was a Packers win that they

437
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 3: really needed to have the way that they had dominated

438
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 3: the game, they got it. But I don't really come

439
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 3: away feeling great about either of these teams. But you know,

440
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 3: I say, like.

441
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: Even like when I'm looking at the EPA success numbers,

442
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 2: it's it's pretty damning to this fort nine and secondary.

443
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 2: Like I think we mentioned before, but the Packers had

444
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 2: a fifty nine success rate in passing downs. Like, I

445
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 2: just don't know how you overcome that in today's NFL

446
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 2: for the forty nine ers. So and you have a

447
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 2: quarterback in Jimmy g who he's a game manager, but

448
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: you're still afraid of him making mistakes.

449
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's it's rough to me. This is just

450
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 3: it's low key a really big win for the Packers

451
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 3: to get this one. Because they got a two and one,

452
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 3: they're tied with the forty nine ers. Now they're tied

453
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 3: with the Bucks now after that loss earlier, it's a

454
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 3: huge difference from where they could have come into the day,

455
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,479
Speaker 3: got this loss as underdogs. The Bucks could have been

456
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 3: three and oh, they could have been you know, the

457
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 3: the Niners three and h. This puts the Packers right

458
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 3: back into the mix of things for that NFC one seed,

459
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 3: and you know, if they can get things right, it

460
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 3: gives them a much better chance. So this is a

461
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 3: big one for them. One of those other teams that

462
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 3: is still undefeated somehow is the Las Vegas Raiders. The

463
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 3: Raiders went down fourteen to nothing in a blink at

464
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 3: the beginning of the game, had a pick six against

465
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,400
Speaker 3: the Dolphins, and then came all the way back, took

466
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 3: the lead, game went to overtime, and for the second

467
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 3: time the season, the Raiders won this thing in overtime

468
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 3: thirty one twenty eight over Miami. So this was a

469
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 3: wild one. Derek Carr had a monster game. Again. Where

470
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 3: do you go with Miami and Vegas on this one?

471
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 2: This was a very strange game because it felt like

472
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 2: I'm watching a game. Jacoby Brezzent drops the Dolphins to

473
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 2: the fifty. They end of Staalin, I have to punt

474
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 2: and the Raiders just go right up the field and

475
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 2: it looks like they're gonna take a week. They're gonna

476
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 2: take control of this game from jump Street and put

477
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: this thing away. And right away Grek Carr throws a

478
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 2: pick six, Dolphins get the ball back, they score. It's

479
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 2: fourteen to nothing. You're thinking at that point the Dolphins

480
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,719
Speaker 2: defense is dominant enough to hold on to this league.

481
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 2: But Derek Carr is really he's showing something. And I

482
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: can't deny that this Raiders offense they look really, really,

483
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 2: really good. The defense is a little better, but I

484
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 2: think this game says a lot about this Miami offense.

485
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 2: With the without tour, they're just not providing enough support

486
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: for their defense.

487
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 3: Now.

488
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: I know Jacoby Brizzette, he led a comeback, but this

489
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 2: Dolphins team is in serious trouble unless they can get

490
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 2: this offense together. And I don't know if two is

491
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 2: the answer. Risette is clearly not the answer. They're just

492
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 2: one of those teams that's gonna be average team this year.

493
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 2: As far as the Dolphins, the Raiders is just I

494
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 2: can't say enough about this offense. Six point one yards

495
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 2: play seven point one yards per past. They're just a

496
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: fun team to watch now obviously they still can't run

497
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 2: the ball, what passing wise, they're just an exciting team

498
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 2: to watch.

499
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, Derek Carr had three hundred and eighty six yards.

500
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 3: He's over twelve hundred down the season now and three

501
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 3: games in he's on pace for six eight hundred and

502
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 3: seventeen yards. So we know paces are a little silly

503
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 3: early on, but we are one six of the way

504
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 3: done with the season now like that, that's a real pace.

505
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 3: That's a higher pace than what Dak Prescott was on

506
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 3: last year when he was putting up those ridiculous numbers.

507
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 3: So if you played this one, Rahiem and I both

508
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 3: had Miami on this one. I think it closed as

509
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: Miami plus three and a half. This was a roller

510
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 3: coaster cover. We got our cover, but oh my goodness,

511
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 3: Miami had to score a touchdown with two seconds left

512
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 3: and then they were down two and at this point,

513
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 3: as it better, I'm just hoping to miss the two point.

514
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 3: Just game over. Got my cover, get out of here.

515
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 3: They get the two pointer and send it to overtime.

516
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 3: Now you don't know what's going to happen because now

517
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: the cover is back in jeopardy again. The Raiders are

518
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 3: driving down, Raiders getting a score, position, settle for a

519
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 3: field goal. So I'm feeling good again. All right, my

520
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 3: three and a half, My cover is looking pretty good.

521
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: Then the Dolphins come down and they get a field goal,

522
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 3: and so now it's back.

523
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 2: Even before that, the Dolphins have fourth and twenty from

524
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 2: the old ten.

525
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.

526
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 2: So at that point you gotta worry about a pick six. Yep,

527
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 2: a fumble overcover. Actually it looked like Jacobe Brizzent actually

528
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 2: fumble on second down, but they said his arm was

529
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 2: coming out. I forgot about that, so that was like

530
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 2: a scary moment.

531
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he connects that. The fourth and twenty played

532
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 3: at Gasiki, and again just just anything anything else, and

533
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 3: the game is over. Like literally, the game is over

534
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 3: if you don't complete that pass and we cover. But no,

535
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 3: they keep it going, They drive down, they get the

536
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 3: field goal. So now it's like, all right, well we're tied.

537
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 3: The only way we lose now is if the Raiders

538
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 3: go all the way down and score a touchdown. They're

539
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 3: not going to do that. They would just kick a

540
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 3: field goal and get out of here. And then they

541
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 3: get down they start driving and they're handing it off

542
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 3: and Peyton Barber is suddenly ripping off like eight yards

543
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 3: of chunk right down the field and I'm like, oh no,

544
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 3: we're gonna blow this cover again. They're gonna let the

545
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 3: Raiders just run in. And we got down to like

546
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 3: the five yard line or something, and then finally, mercifully

547
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 3: it took a knee and ran the clock down to

548
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 3: the last play of overtime and kicked the field goal.

549
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 3: We got her cover and get out of there. But man,

550
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 3: that was a roller coaster.

551
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 2: That was one of That was one of the biggest

552
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 2: sweats I've I've had. I looked up and down my

553
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 2: timeline because I feel like a lot of the wise

554
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 2: guys and a lot of the Sharper people, the writers

555
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 2: were all on Miami plus four plus three and a half,

556
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: and everybody's saying, please kick the field goal, and it

557
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: felt like they were louly gagging with it. But they

558
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: finally did it, so we got the cover. I think

559
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 2: we both gave up Miami last week, so we did.

560
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 2: That was great, Baus see, Yeah, it was.

561
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 3: It was a rough one, all right, Let's pick up

562
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 3: a place with a little lightning around a few other games.

563
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: One other, even a wonkier game, was the Cardinals and

564
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 3: Jaguars today. Arizona ended up winning thirty one to nineteen,

565
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 3: which doesn't really look all that exciting, but Arizona was

566
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 3: dominating early, which of course they were Jacksonville, they're not

567
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 3: very good. And then I don't know if you're watching

568
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: this one, but rondel Moore is back to receive a

569
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 3: punt and he's waiting for the punt to come down,

570
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 3: and a referee threw a flag that hit the ball

571
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 3: before it came down on a punt like that's incredible accuracy,

572
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 3: and rondel Moore muffs the punt. So the Jaguars recover

573
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 3: get a touchdown. And then a little bit later we're

574
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 3: right into halftime and a good old Cliff Kingsbury decides,

575
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 3: what a genius idea. Let's kick a sixty eight yard

576
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 3: field goal heading into the half. That'll be a great thing.

577
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,439
Speaker 3: I've never watch Alabama and Auburn before. How could this

578
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 3: go badly? Cliff Kingsbury, So he lines up, he kicks it. Well,

579
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 3: he doesn't kick it, but he may as well have

580
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 3: because it didn't get to the all the way there.

581
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 3: So the Jaguars catch it a step from the back

582
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 3: of the end zone and return it one hundred and

583
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 3: nine yards for a touchdown, tying the longest in NFL history.

584
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 3: The Jaguars go up nine in the third quarter. So

585
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 3: at this point I'm on Jaguars plus eight. I'm feeling

586
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 3: pretty good about this because we're covering by seventeen points

587
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 3: right now. And then while we're up nine or up two,

588
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: I think, because the Cardinals score again, Trevor Lawrence, mister

589
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 3: interception machine, decides on a flea flicker to go back

590
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 3: footed loss of pick six, just tosses it right over

591
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 3: there to the sideline. Just here, all all in free,

592
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: Just come on, get the ball, run it all in here,

593
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 3: have your touchdown. We don't want to win this anyways.

594
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 3: So the Cardinals pull way out ahead again. The Jaguars

595
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 3: twice scored a touchdown and missed the extra point, and

596
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 3: this game finishes thirty one to nineteen. That's fifty points.

597
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 3: The total is fifty one. So if you bet the

598
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 3: over on this one, this is a horrendous beat. You

599
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 3: lost by two extra points. And on top of that,

600
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: the Jaguars had the ball twice inside the twenty five

601
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 3: in the final five minutes and fumbled both times. Even

602
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 3: if you just kick a field goal on one of those,

603
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 3: we still get the over my plus eight. I was

604
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: hanging in there hoping for a touchdown we had on

605
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 3: the final play of the game until Trevor Lawrence turn

606
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 3: it over again because captain turnover over here? So where

607
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 3: we got a new thing we're doing this week? Cardinals

608
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 3: and Jaguars. Is our stink of the week? Smell it,

609
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 3: smell it smelly.

610
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 2: It's the smell. It's quite fungent.

611
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 3: Plug your nose.

612
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 2: It's stinks.

613
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: This is your stink of the week.

614
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 3: Smell. This is the worst beat, a terrible, terrible game,

615
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 3: terrible Jaguars. I don't even know. Is it the over

616
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 3: that's the stink of the week or is it the

617
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 3: plus eight or is it just the Jacksonville Jaguars. It

618
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 3: might be the whole thing. I think the entire the

619
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 3: entire thing is a stink of the week.

620
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 2: That's hilarious. I got I may have to watch the

621
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 2: second half of that game. But this is one of

622
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 2: those games I wasn't too interested in just because it's

623
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 2: the Cardinals and the Jaguars, But for me, I'm going

624
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 2: to go with the Seattle Seahawks and the Minnesota Vikings.

625
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: This is probably one of Kirk Cousins' best games we've

626
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 2: seen in a while. Thirty or thirty eight, three hundred

627
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: and twenty three yards, three touchdown passes, one hundred and

628
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 2: twenty eight point four passer rating. It's crazy, but he

629
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: hasn't thrown an interception this year. When you look at

630
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 2: the Seattle defense, it's totally problematic. They're not able to

631
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 2: get pressure. They keep getting gashed on the ground. No

632
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook, but twenty six carries one hundred and twenty

633
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: one yards for Madison, Justin Jefferson, non receptions one hundred

634
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 2: and eighteen yards. The Seattle defense is completely problematic. I

635
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 2: just honestly, I don't know what they're gonna do and defensively,

636
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: and it looks like this is the team in which

637
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson in this offense is going to continue. You

638
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 2: have to bail them out. But as we saw the

639
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: last couple of weeks, the offense has truly struggled to

640
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 2: bail them out. And part of the reason why is

641
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 2: the problems on the offensive line. The Vikings got pressure

642
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 2: on Russell Wilson on fifty five percent of his passes

643
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 2: pass plays and then when you like, I actually did

644
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 2: the game, guy, this for this game over at action

645
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 2: and coming into this game. We saw last in Week one.

646
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 2: They lost the starting center in Week one and then

647
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 2: they replaced him with Kyle Fuller, and he was pretty

648
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: bad last week. I mean, he's Kyle Fuller as a

649
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 2: Pro Football Focus grade of forty six point one past

650
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: block and grade of twenty nine point four. That's twenty

651
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 2: ninth out of thirty three centers. So I knew coming

652
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 2: in and the Vikers defensive line was going to be

653
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 2: able to get some pressure on them, and that's exactly

654
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: what happened. Now, obviously the Seahawks got off to a

655
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 2: fast start, but as the game goes on, this offensive

656
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 2: line is just not holding up. So I think Seattle

657
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 2: really had some problems going forward. The Vikings, I'm looking

658
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 2: at them as one of the teams who they have

659
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 2: a chance to win the NFC North. For me, I'm

660
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 2: taking a flyer on that. When I look at these

661
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 2: they could easily be three and ozer right now. Obviously,

662
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook fumbled and overtime in week one against the

663
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 2: since Nanty Bengals in the row in Week two, they

664
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 2: had a missfield goal. But to me, this is probably

665
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 2: one of the most complete teams in that division and

666
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 2: they can easily challenge the Packers. So when those lines

667
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 2: come out tomorrow morning, I think I'm going to be

668
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: taking a look at them to win the NFC nor

669
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 2: I think this is this is an underrated team. So

670
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 2: when do you think about that. You're a Minnesota Vikers fan.

671
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, school of Vikings. I got my Dante Culpeper jersey on.

672
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 3: I'm celebrating our first win of the season. My fear is,

673
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,959
Speaker 3: I don't disagree with anything that you said, but it

674
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 3: is a rough schedule. Cleveland comes to town next week.

675
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 3: And I wrote about the zero to two teams that

676
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 3: I thought could could make or not make the playoffs,

677
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 3: and the Vikings were easily the most talented of those teams,

678
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 3: but it looked like there was still County this one

679
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 3: ten games that Minnesota probably would be an underdog in,

680
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: and the Vikings are talented enough to have a shot,

681
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 3: but an oh and two hole with losses to Bengals

682
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 3: and Cardinals that were probably the two easiest non division

683
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 3: games on the schedule. It's just it's a really steep

684
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 3: climb and the NFC is tough, and it's a talented

685
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 3: enough team to do it. But this was a good start.

686
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 3: Seattle scored seventeen in their first three possessions and then

687
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 3: didn't score again. I can't say I saw that coming.

688
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 3: The defense really figured things out. They kind of put

689
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson in the torture chamber and they locked up

690
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 3: those receivers and got the job done. So I like

691
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 3: that you're buying Viking stock. I don't know if I'm

692
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 3: quite there with you on it, but I'm owing three

693
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 3: against the spread on Vikings games. So maybe stick with

694
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 3: Raheem's opinions on this one instead. So let's stay in

695
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 3: the division. I had a comment on the Detroit Lions,

696
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,439
Speaker 3: who literally invent new ways to lose heartbreaking games every

697
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 3: time that they get a chance to. All I have

698
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 3: to say about this game comes down to the final

699
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 3: thirty seconds of the game. The Ravens apparently thought it

700
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 3: was a bye week. They just didn't show up for

701
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 3: this one at all. I don't know what you're doing

702
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 3: against Detroit to have sixteen points, but it's seventeen sixteen,

703
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 3: the lines have kicked a go ahead field goal, and

704
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 3: I'm feeling good about my kitchen sink week teams. I

705
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 3: sprinkled all some of these long shots. The lines are

706
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 3: plus eight and obviously easily covering that. The Ravens have

707
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 3: fourth and nineteen on their own sixteen yard line, like

708
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 3: in the final, under a minute to play on fourth

709
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: and nineteen, they throw a thirty six yard pass to

710
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 3: Samuel Watkins get up there and spike the ball, and then,

711
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 3: as we've seen on Sunday Night Football, apparently probably had

712
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 3: a false start penalty or are sorry, delay of game penalty,

713
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 3: so there should have been a five second runoff. The

714
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 3: good thing it didn't because the Ravens bring out all

715
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 3: reliable Justin Tucker, who did miss the field goal earlier

716
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 3: in the game. Tucker lines up for sixty six, the

717
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 3: NFL record booms it there, and of course, because it's

718
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 3: the Lions, it can't just be good. It looked good

719
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 3: off his foot, but it can't just be good. It

720
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 3: has to hit the crossbar, bounce like forty feet up

721
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 3: in the air and suspend for like three hours, and

722
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 3: then just float over the crossfire and knock the Lions out.

723
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 2: Here's the thing, Mark he'th Brown single handedly prohibited the

724
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 2: Ravens from not covering this game. He dropped three passes

725
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 2: that would have been touchdown passes. If I bet on

726
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 2: the Ravens, I think you got to send him an

727
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 2: invoice on Vemo or cash up or PayPal because he

728
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 2: messed up the money. Like there was no way in

729
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:26,800
Speaker 2: my mind that I felt like they were going to

730
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 2: bring out Justin Tucker to hit a sixty six yard

731
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 2: field goal. It bounces off the go post, reminiscent of

732
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:38,919
Speaker 2: Kawhi Leonard against the Philadelphia seventy six ers. My other

733
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 2: game is the Washington football team. We got to stop

734
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 2: overrating this Washington football team defense. The Bills went out

735
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 2: there had twenty nine first downs, six point two yards

736
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: per play, eight point two yards per past, three point

737
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: seven yards per rush. I know they didn't the Bills

738
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 2: don't need to run the ball, but it's just it's

739
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 2: pretty clear that the Washington football team, their defense is

740
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 2: not what we thought they would be. Chase Young Mantes sweat,

741
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 2: I love them, but they're not completely wrecking these games.

742
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if you can really bet this team

743
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 2: in the manner that we thought we could bet them

744
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: coming into this year. Taylor Hennikey is a great story,

745
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 2: but he's not the solution for this team. It's bad

746
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 2: enough that this defense can't really stop anybody, but this

747
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 2: team is turning the ball over because he's forced to

748
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 2: do too much. Honestly, I'm out on the Washington football

749
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,880
Speaker 2: team to win the NFC East. I came into this

750
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 2: season thinking that this defense was super dominant and it's

751
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 2: just not that. And I think in today's NFL you

752
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 2: really got to have the offense to match. I think

753
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 2: when I look back at last year, obviously Cowboys had

754
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 2: some injuries, Washington football team they benefited from the Eagles

755
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 2: pretty much tanking down the stretch. So this is not

756
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 2: a team that I'm looking back too much anymore, especially

757
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 2: the way this defense is played. So Buffalo finally showed

758
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,359
Speaker 2: this game. It was reminiscent of what we saw from

759
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: Josh Allen last year when thirty two or forty three,

760
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty eight yards with four touchdowns of

761
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 2: Mayuel Sanders showed up in a big way. So if

762
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 2: this Buffalo offense can float the way they did in

763
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: today's game, and the way they did last year, They're

764
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: gonna be dangerous.

765
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Bills look really good, and especially the defense

766
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 3: is impressive. And look, it's just Washington and it's only

767
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 3: Miami last week. But I wasn't expecting the defense to

768
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 3: be this good. And you got to figure Brian Dable

769
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 3: and Josh Allen are going to come around that this

770
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 3: was a game that they started to really show some things.

771
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 3: So I kind of ruled Buffalo out. I didn't have

772
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 3: them in my top super Bowl tier team. And I'm

773
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 3: starting to feel like this might be a team that's

774
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 3: overlooked a little bit. We have sometimes that team who

775
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 3: in Week one gets a big result one way or

776
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 3: the other, and then they kind of skews our opinion

777
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 3: of them for a while. And Buffalo lost at home

778
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,720
Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh in Week one, and I'm starting to wonder

779
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 3: if that kind of screwed up what we thought of

780
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 3: both of those teams. I was really out on the

781
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 3: Steelers coming into the year, and I'll like, oh, well,

782
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 3: maybe the Steelers are okay, and they clearly are not.

783
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 3: And then the Bills I was already feeling a little

784
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 3: bit low on and then that was the reason to

785
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 3: bury them. So I don't know. Do you think the

786
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 3: bubble Do you think the Bills are a bit of

787
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 3: a sleeper and have a little value right now?

788
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: I do, actually do think they have a little value,

789
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 2: And obviously part of that, once again is their division.

790
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 2: We spoke about Miami earlier, their struggles offensively. Matt Jones

791
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 2: is still a rookie for the New England Patriots, and

792
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 2: I think we've seen rookie quarterbacks really struggle to share.

793
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 2: Mat Jones struggled against the Saints today, and then when

794
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 2: you look at the New York Jets, they're a complete

795
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 2: bottom feeder of the NFL. So it's almost like we're

796
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 2: seeing the same thing that we saw from the Tom

797
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: Brady New England Patriots, where they just beat up on

798
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: the rest of their division for twenty years straight. But

799
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 2: now it's the Buffalo Bills. We wouldn't be doing and

800
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 2: I think that gives them value and I see no

801
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 2: reason why you shouldn't be taking a flyer on them now.

802
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 3: Absolute all right, Well, we want to zoom through our

803
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 3: final six games to wrap up Week three here. So

804
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 3: it was not pretty, but the Titans got a stranglehold

805
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 3: on the AFC South. They had an ugly twenty five

806
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 3: to sixteen to win and an under against the Colts.

807
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 3: Titans lost the turnover battle three nothing, but Indianapolis was

808
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 3: yet again tearrible on third downs three for twelve and

809
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 3: on in the red zone one for three. Colts are

810
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 3: owing three now and effectively two and a half games

811
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 3: out on the Titans in the division, so a rough

812
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 3: spot for them. We had a trio of three point

813
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 3: underdogs cover and win on the road in the early slate.

814
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 3: We didn't get much offense from the Saints or the Patriots,

815
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 3: but Mac Jones, the rookie, through three interceptions, rough adding

816
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 3: for him, and that was basically the difference. New Orleans

817
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 3: won twenty eight to thirteen as a plus one thirty

818
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 3: money line winner. All three Saints and Patriots games have

819
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 3: gone under for the year now. The Falcons got Arthur

820
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 3: Smith his first win in a battle of oh to

821
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 3: two teams. The Giants allowed ten points in the last

822
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 3: five minutes in Atlanta, won seventeen to fourteen. Another easy

823
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 3: under there and a plus one thirty money line winner

824
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 3: for the Falcons. The Bengals you mentioned them, They got

825
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 3: the win in Pittsburgh, dominating really as a plus one

826
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 3: twenty underdog Jamar Chase had his third and fourth touchdown

827
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 3: of the season. He replaced my guy Randy Moss as

828
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 3: the youngest receiver ever to get to four touchdowns. Big

829
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 3: Ben is looking big washed right now. Cincinnati twenty four

830
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 3: to ten. Bengals have a chance to get to three

831
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 3: and one when they host the Jaguars on Thursday night.

832
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if anybody saw that coming our last

833
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 3: two games, Wherehiem and I were all over the Browns

834
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 3: and the brown Goes all preseason, and today is exactly

835
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 3: what we thought we were going to get from both

836
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 3: of those teams. The Browns absolutely ruined at Justin Field's

837
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 3: debut nine sacks on the poor Rookie Miles Garrett had

838
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 3: four and a half. Jadavian Clowney had two more of

839
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 3: his poor. Fields went six of twenty with one net

840
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 3: yard passing. The Bears entire team had forty seven yards

841
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 3: and last twenty six to six. Bad times for Chicago fans.

842
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 3: The Broncos shut out the Jets twenty six to nothing

843
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 3: in a third straight completely unwatchable win. Cover under for Denver.

844
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 3: They just keep doing what they're doing. The Broncos have

845
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 3: allowed twenty six points the entire season, and the Jets

846
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 3: had one drive the entire game of more than six

847
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 3: plays ugly football there, but Denver is three to ohero

848
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 3: and getting the job done. All right, let's hear a

Speaker 1: Let's get back to the show.

881
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:31,880
Speaker 3: All right, Well, Monday Night Football. We are here the

882
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys, America's team hosting Monday Night Football. They are

883
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 3: three and a half point favorites to the Philadelphia Eagles.

884
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 3: We've got an NFC East battle. The Eagles are plus

885
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 3: one fifty on the money line and this total is

886
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 3: at fifty one and a half. Rahim, I know that

887
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 3: you are in Philadelphia, but you are a Cowboys fan.

888
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 3: Where are you at on these two teams?

889
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 2: I like the Eagles plus three and a half. I

890
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 2: hate it because I'm Cowboys fan, But when I look

891
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 2: at this game, first things first, my model makes this

892
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 2: game Cowboys minus one and a half, so I think

893
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 2: the three and a half getting some value on the Eagles.

894
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 2: First things first, the Eagles are second and run efficiency.

895
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,280
Speaker 2: They're to face the Cowboys defense, which is twenty six,

896
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 2: and I think the Eagles gonna be able to run

897
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 2: the ball. Unfortunately, obviously they don't have Brandon Brooks for

898
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 2: this game. But I think this is an advantage for

899
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 2: the Eagles. When I looked at them last week against

900
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:30,759
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers, they moved the ball but down

901
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 2: the field, they just didn't get the points. Now, when

902
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 2: you look at this Cowboys team, obviously they are America's team.

903
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 2: You got fans everywhere around the world. The best people

904
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 2: and the most successful people on the planet are Cowboys fans.

905
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 2: You could name them. Jay z Andre three thousand, Alan Iverson,

906
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook Shaw, Michaels from the WWE. They all Cowboys fans,

907
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,320
Speaker 2: so you know everybody's gonna be betting on the Cowboys.

908
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 2: This is the bell out game of the week, obviously

909
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,799
Speaker 2: the public. They might have taken their lumps from the

910
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,880
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week some of the other teams.

911
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 2: This is the game where everybody's chasing. So the Eagles

912
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 2: are in a great spot here. I think they'd be

913
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 2: able to run the ball. Look at the Cowboys, they

914
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:21,919
Speaker 2: struggled with mobile quarterbacks Hurts, Lamar Jackson, Russell Wilson, Kyler Murray.

915
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 2: They all had big games against this defense last year.

916
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 2: And then obviously the Cowboys offense. That's the wildcard here.

917
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 2: They should be able to put up points. But the

918
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,479
Speaker 2: thing that scares me is obviously Michael Gallop is still out.

919
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 2: Marik Cooper's low banged up. So I'm going to Eagles

920
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 2: here to keep it clos It's probably a field goal

921
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 2: game either way, but I think the Eagles get it done.

922
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going the other way on this one, So

923
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 3: we're gonna go head to head. I'm on your Cowboys

924
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 3: this week, and I think that somehow we are still

925
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 3: as a public under rating the Dallas Cowboys. And I

926
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 3: don't know if this has ever happened before, but Dallas

927
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 3: is really good. Dak Prescott is looking great, Amari Cooper

928
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 3: and See Lamb are looking good. I know it's easy

929
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 3: to dump on Ezekiel Elliott, but that run game is

930
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,240
Speaker 3: really good. Zeke's not putting up huge fantasy numbers anymore,

931
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,240
Speaker 3: but between him and Pollard, the one two punches working

932
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 3: really well. Cowboys were number three and rushing DVA offense,

933
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 3: so they're running the ball well and the Eagles are

934
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 3: below average and run defense even with their defensive line

935
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 3: that's been good. So I think that the Cowboys are

936
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 3: gonna be able to run the ball here and move

937
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 3: the ball well. Dallas's defense has been better than we

938
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,320
Speaker 3: thought too. Micah Parsons, the rookie, has been playing well.

939
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 3: He was all over the place last week, coming off

940
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 3: the line and rushing the passer. Trevon Diggs, I think

941
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 3: has made a leap at corner. And you know, the

942
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 3: Cowboys defense is not great, but we knew they were

943
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 3: going to be great, but I think that they're at

944
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 3: least respectable now. They're putting them in a position where

945
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 3: they're not going to achieves and force the offense to

946
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 3: put up thirty forty points to win this thing. So

947
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 3: I like Dallas a lot. They've played so far two

948
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,800
Speaker 3: road games in Tampa and in Los Angeles. The Chargers,

949
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,439
Speaker 3: they're a field goal away by Tom you know, Tom

950
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,400
Speaker 3: Brady and the guys from being two and zero on

951
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,360
Speaker 3: a really tough first two games of the season. So

952
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,399
Speaker 3: I think Dallas is a little bit underrated. The other

953
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,799
Speaker 3: thing is too we know the Cowboys offense is going

954
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 3: to move the ball and score. I don't trust the

955
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 3: Eagles to score enough to keep up against some of

956
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 3: these top offenses. They only had three points against the

957
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers until the final minutes of the game.

958
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 3: They only had seven against the Falcons for almost the

959
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 3: whole first half in Week one, and you know, they

960
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 3: got some points late in those games that kind of

961
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 3: even things out a little bit more. But I don't

962
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 3: really trust Jalen Hurts yet. I don't think Nick Sirianni

963
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 3: trusts Jalen Hurts yet either. It feels like, you know,

964
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:42,719
Speaker 3: that game last week against the forty nine ers, it

965
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 3: felt like both coaches were just trying to not let

966
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 3: the quarterbacks screw things up for them, and we talked

967
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 3: about that with Jimmy Garoppolo, but Jalen Hurts seems like

968
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 3: he's in a bit of a similar spot. So the

969
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,680
Speaker 3: one thing that gives me some hesitation, I love the

970
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,760
Speaker 3: Cowboys to get the win here at home on Monday

971
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 3: night three and a half. I'm like, Ah, can you

972
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 3: just put this under a field goal? Can you be

973
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 3: two and a half instead that that extra hook? I

974
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 3: don't love it. I can see the field goal game here.

975
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 3: But here's one thing I noted. Fourteen straight games in

976
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 3: this rivalry have covered this spread, so these games don't

977
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,839
Speaker 3: come down to the field goal. Usually they're covering either way.

978
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 3: So that means pick the team that I think is better.

979
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 3: The home team has won the last five games in

980
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,720
Speaker 3: the series. I think Dallas is better coming into today.

981
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 3: The Eagles were at plus five point fifty to win

982
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,959
Speaker 3: the division, and if they win this one, they're they're

983
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 3: leading the division. They're two and one and would basically

984
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 3: be up a game and a half on Dallas. I

985
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 3: think it's relatively safe at this point to basically count

986
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,320
Speaker 3: out Washington and the Giants. Like this is a pretty

987
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:44,879
Speaker 3: big game. This is going to really set the tone

988
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 3: for this division. Most of the games on this division

989
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 3: are backloaded and don't come until later in the year.

990
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 3: Whoever wins this one, I think, becomes the NFC East favorite.

991
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 3: To me, if you do like the Eagles enough to

992
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,320
Speaker 3: bet the money line here, I might skip the money

993
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,799
Speaker 3: line and play the NFC East Division, so you're really

994
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,879
Speaker 3: getting your money's worth if the Eagles do get the win.

995
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 2: I don't really want to count the other two teams

996
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,480
Speaker 2: out of his division race yet. It's still early. I

997
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 2: mean we're only three weeks into the NFL season. Most

998
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 2: of these teams haven't played division games. These teams are

999
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 2: gonna play each other twice, like all of them, so

1000
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 2: it's a little early. We're gonna have some battles between

1001
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 2: the seas because I don't think any of them are

1002
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 2: very good.

1003
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 3: The Cowboys just to me, they look a tier or

1004
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 3: two above the rest of the teams in the division

1005
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,880
Speaker 3: with the talent that they have on offense. Dallas to

1006
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 3: me kind of is in the same mix as the Packers,

1007
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers, some of those other teams in

1008
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 3: the NFC. I think the Cowboys belong in that mix,

1009
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 3: and I don't see any world where any of the

1010
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 3: other three teams in the division could be in that

1011
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 3: same breath with those. I'm on the Cowboys this week.

1012
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:47,840
Speaker 3: They can get the three and zero against the spread.

1013
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 3: You're on the Eagles. We'll see.

1014
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 2: I think the thing I'm struggling with the Cowboys is, yes,

1015
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 2: they played the ten Big Bucks and you're tough, and

1016
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 2: I think people are overrating them because of that game.

1017
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 3: All right, well, we're gonna see it on Monday Night,

1018
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 3: that is tonight as you are listening to this. We'll

1019
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,719
Speaker 3: see which team comes out on top and gets into

1020
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 3: the driver's seat, and then NFC East there. Let's wrap

1021
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 3: up with our Week four Hot Reed, looking ahead already

1022
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 3: to next Sunday. We're still wrapping things up from Sunday.

1023
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 3: We're still got Monday Night ahead, but we've been doing

1024
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,240
Speaker 3: well with our hot reads. I think our hot read

1025
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 3: teams were three and one in the last week. And

1026
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 3: I'm going to start out this week because I'm going

1027
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,479
Speaker 3: right back to where we just finished and I'm going

1028
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 3: to the Eagles game, but playing the Chiefs Kansas City

1029
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 3: Travels of Philadelphia next week. It's a short week for

1030
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 3: the Eagles, and the Chiefs are minus five and a

1031
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,240
Speaker 3: half right now. And I know, I know the Chiefs

1032
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 3: are on ten games in a row at this point,

1033
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 3: meaningful games where they have played one score games. This

1034
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 3: is what happens now, I know. But all the things

1035
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 3: we just said about the Eagles, they can't keep up,

1036
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 3: they can't score enough to keep up with the Cowboys,

1037
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,399
Speaker 3: then they certainly aren't going to be able to score

1038
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 3: to keep up with the Chiefs. The Chiefs are going

1039
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:58,479
Speaker 3: to move the ball, They're going to score. The Eagle

1040
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 3: secondary is beatable. Darius Sleigh is really good, but can't

1041
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,440
Speaker 3: cover everyone. And at five and a half especially, this

1042
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 3: is a perfect, perfect teaser spot. That line is gonna rise.

1043
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 3: They're gonna lose out on the teaser a little bit there.

1044
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,319
Speaker 3: This is a great spot to basically tease them and

1045
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 3: get them just as a money line pick. At that point,

1046
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,399
Speaker 3: the Chiefs have lost two in a row. This team

1047
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 3: is too good to lose three in a row. So

1048
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 3: this is just betting on Mahomes and Andy Reid to

1049
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 3: bounce back after the loss two losses, and I think

1050
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 3: that the Eagles. I want to bet this before Monday

1051
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 3: night because if I think the Eagles lose to Dallas

1052
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 3: and maybe somewhat comfortably, then that line will move toward

1053
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 3: Kansas City as well. So I like the Chiefs there.

1054
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 3: I really like that one.

1055
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 2: I think that's a really great play, and I think

1056
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 2: you need to jump on that right now, because obviously

1057
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 2: teams are gonna be players are gonna be backing the

1058
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,400
Speaker 2: Chiefs heavy to speak, especially if the Eagles lose Themorrow,

1059
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 2: which I don't think they will. But I think even

1060
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,840
Speaker 2: if the Eagles win or lose, the Chiefs are the

1061
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 2: side here. Do you want to get that early because

1062
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,799
Speaker 2: everybody likes betting or Patrick Mahomes. For me, I'm gonna

1063
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 2: go with the Baltimore Ravens. There's some plus two and

1064
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 2: a half out there in the market. I think there's

1065
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 2: one plus two and a half you can look for,

1066
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 2: but there's a plus two and there's a consensus plus

1067
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 2: one and a half. To me, this line is flat

1068
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 2: out wrong. The Ravens are being undervalued in the spot.

1069
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,359
Speaker 2: When you look at the preseason look aheadline for this game,

1070
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,279
Speaker 2: it was Ravens minus three and a half. Now we're

1071
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:25,879
Speaker 2: sitting at a consensus Ravens plus one and a half.

1072
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 2: I know the Broncos have looked like world beaters. They've

1073
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 2: been downright dominant, winning by average of sixteen points. When

1074
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,880
Speaker 2: you look at the schedule, they played the easiest schedule

1075
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 2: in the NFL this far. They played the New York Giants,

1076
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets. These top teams are combined

1077
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 2: all and six straight up. They ranked twenty second, thirty first,

1078
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 2: and twenty eighth in Football Outsiders DVA this season. This

1079
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,440
Speaker 2: is a big step up against Lamar Jackson Baltimore Ravens.

1080
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,800
Speaker 2: I know they just snatched victory from the jaws of

1081
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,439
Speaker 2: defeat with NFL record sixty six yard field goal from

1082
00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 2: Justin Tuck. But I think because of that game and

1083
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 2: the fact that markis Brown dropped a million touchdown passes,

1084
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:10,320
Speaker 2: we're getting some value here. We'll take the Baltimore Ravens.

1085
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 2: They should be able to win this game, outright.

1086
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. I like that one. I am interested to see

1087
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,720
Speaker 3: what comes from that game because the Broncos have looked

1088
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,600
Speaker 3: too good to be true, But they keep pushing their

1089
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,800
Speaker 3: lines higher and higher each game, and they keep covering anyway,

1090
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 3: So I don't know that anyone expected the Broncos to

1091
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 3: be favored in this game coming into the season. They

1092
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 3: look good though, and the offense, the offense looks better

1093
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 3: than we thought too. Teddy Bridgewater is actually dialing it

1094
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 3: up and hitting some plays. So I think that Baltimore

1095
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 3: is the right side because of what we know from

1096
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 3: years of Lamar Jackson on that team and John Harbaugh.

1097
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,279
Speaker 3: But if Denver actually can go and get the win

1098
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 3: this game, then I think we really like right now,

1099
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 3: Denver is kind of that cute team that were like,

1100
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 3: oh good, you're beating up on the bad teams. The

1101
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,400
Speaker 3: defense definitely looks good if they get this win, and

1102
00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:58,919
Speaker 3: I think we have to talk about them a little

1103
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,319
Speaker 3: bit differently, but they're gonna have to get the win first.

1104
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:04,399
Speaker 2: I think the interesting thing about the interesting thing about

1105
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 2: Denver right now is they're actually more banged depth than

1106
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 2: we realize. Obviously they're missing Bradley Chubb, kJ Handler, Jerry Judy,

1107
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:14,040
Speaker 2: Ronald Darby, but this is a game would actually think

1108
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 2: it's going to come back and fight.

1109
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, So you're going against the Broncos, that three and

1110
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 3: oh team in the AFC. I'm going against the other

1111
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,160
Speaker 3: three and oh team in the AFC and I'm betting

1112
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:26,239
Speaker 3: against the Raiders. Raiders play Monday Night football apparently were

1113
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 3: we got the Raiders every three weeks on Monday Night

1114
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 3: football this season. I'm not sure what the schedule makers

1115
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 3: are doing, but they're traveling to Los Angeles to play

1116
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 3: the Chargers. Both of these teams, the Chargers and the Raiders,

1117
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 3: are coming off the big win here. But this line

1118
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,719
Speaker 3: is a field goal right now, and I am just

1119
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,480
Speaker 3: grabbing the Chargers at minus three before the line goes

1120
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 3: off of that. This is absolutely the team that we're

1121
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 3: about to spend the entire week slobbering over in the media.

1122
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 3: Brandon Staley justin Herbert, Oh my god, they beat the Chiefs.

1123
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 3: That's the Chargers world now, Like this line is going

1124
00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 3: to go up, and I think it should. The Chargers

1125
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 3: are the better team here, they're at home. I love

1126
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,840
Speaker 3: the matchup here. I liked the Chargers against the Chiefs

1127
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 3: because of the two deep defense that Brandon Staley plays

1128
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 3: with On defense, I think it's going to work against

1129
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 3: Derek Carr and against the Raiders too. They're dropping the safeties,

1130
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 3: They're forcing teams to check down and to run the ball.

1131
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,719
Speaker 3: That's not what the Raiders are doing well this year.

1132
00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 3: They're not running the ball well, and as much as

1133
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,240
Speaker 3: it's hilarious, Derek Carr has been captain Checkdown for years,

1134
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 3: but he's lighting it up right now. They're hitting the

1135
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 3: big passes down the field, and I think the Charge

1136
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:31,879
Speaker 3: is going to be able to take that away from

1137
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 3: them a little bit. And also, the Raiders haven't faced

1138
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,680
Speaker 3: an offense as talented as the Chargers at either who

1139
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 3: can really dial it up pass On that team, we

1140
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 3: know that their defense can be vulnerable. So the Raiders

1141
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,840
Speaker 3: have had two overtime wins now down to like the

1142
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,399
Speaker 3: final plays. That's a lot of extra mileage this early

1143
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 3: in the season. It's a lot of extra emotions this early.

1144
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 3: So I like Chargers minus three at home on Monday

1145
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 3: Night football to get the job done. And I want

1146
00:56:58,200 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 3: to grab that one before the line moves.

1147
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,000
Speaker 2: I like that one. I really like that one.

1148
00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 3: For me.

1149
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 2: My final pick, I'm gonna go with the Arizona Cardinals

1150
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 2: plus six. The Rams are coming off that really, really

1151
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 2: really big win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and I

1152
00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:16,360
Speaker 2: just think this line is a little bit too high.

1153
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 2: We're looking at Los Angeles Rams minus six and I'm

1154
00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 2: not sure that should be the case. I have this

1155
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 2: around a field goal, to be honest. I mean we

1156
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 2: spoke about earlier the Rams they really, really really they

1157
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 2: struggle on defense. They have a great defensive line. But

1158
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 2: this is a team that they could be passed on.

1159
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers they passed that will. Like I

1160
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 2: said before, they had seven point one yards per pass,

1161
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 2: six point three yards per play. The Buccaneers actually went

1162
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 2: out there and they actually had a fifty three percent

1163
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:52,400
Speaker 2: success rate on early passing downs fifty two percent on

1164
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 2: passing downs in general. So I think that Kyler Murray

1165
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 2: is gonna be able to move the bar, and I

1166
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 2: think he's gonna add an element that the Rams haven't

1167
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,920
Speaker 2: necessariy we've seen this year. They play Andy Dalton in

1168
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 2: Week one, they played Tom Brady this week. They're not

1169
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 2: ready for what Kyler Murray has to offer. And obviously

1170
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:15,120
Speaker 2: got DeAndre Hopkins, you got ron Dale Moore, got aj Green.

1171
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 2: This is the explosive Cardinals offense. So I think they

1172
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 2: should be able to keep it within a number to

1173
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 2: probably be a shootout. But six points is just way

1174
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 2: too much for this division matchup.

1175
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 3: I like you, I see a very obvious theme with

1176
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 3: our hot read this week. There are five teams that

1177
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 3: are three and oh and we are betting directly against

1178
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 3: three of them. Granted, the Cardinals are three and oh,

1179
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:37,600
Speaker 3: so we're technically betting on one of them as well,

1180
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 3: so someone's got to lose that one. But we're fading

1181
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,800
Speaker 3: the Rams, We're fading the Raiders, We're fading the Broncos.

1182
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 3: That's how this is going. The lines are moving too

1183
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 3: much to these teams. We're giving a little too much

1184
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 3: credit perhaps to these unbeaten teams early, and it's time

1185
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 3: to get the old regression monster out and try to

1186
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 3: even some things back out. I think. So that is

1187
00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,960
Speaker 3: going to wrap it up today at the Action Network podcast,
