1
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: If you thought four hours a day, minutes a week

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants of

3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the rich

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: pill poppers in the penthouse. The clearing House of hot

6
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with

7
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: Ben Maller starts right now. Welcome players, You're welcome. Are

8
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: you up for more? Mallard Mayhem? It's time now Benny

9
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: versus the penny again, as we try to buck the

10
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: odds here and we give you Benny versus the pain.

11
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 1: We play the speculation game, as we challenge the point

12
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: spreads in the National Football League. We're heading into week two,

13
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: the full weekend. We all had that game Thursday night.

14
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: You know the outcome there between Carol Line and Tampa

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: Bay in a lightning played game, bad weather. They're at

16
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: the beginning of the game anyway there between Carolina and

17
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. But let's get into this now before we

18
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: go to the rest of the week two. Car We

19
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 1: already did that game on the radio show, so we

20
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: gotta look ahead to the games on Sunday and Monday night.

21
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: How did we do last week? Guests? Gonna get right

22
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: on that, Mike. I want you to talk slowly. I

23
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 1: want you to enunciate every word. I want you to

24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: talk proudly because someone had an amazing day against the

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: penny and against the Vegas bookmakers. One three dash three.

26
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: Now you didn't say that, right, You try that again?

27
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: One dash three? You think you're funny? Are you very cute?

28
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: That is an eight winning percentage. That's better than Belichick,

29
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: is better than Greg Papavits. Thank you very much. Let

30
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: me take a very three lap here. I'll take a bow. Yeah, absolutely,

31
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: all right, now now we can move on. Guess now,

32
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: I want to point out now some guys are emailing me.

33
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: I One guy said he's gonna bet every one of

34
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: these games against the spread because I had such a

35
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: good week. That is a that's not a I do

36
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: not recommend that. I appreciate your confidence in me, but

37
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: I know from past experiences, not that I'm paranoid, but

38
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: I have had weeks like this from time to time,

39
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: and then like a trap door opens up and I

40
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: go down into a pit of flames. So I'm warning

41
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: you that the law of averages would say I'm gonna

42
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: go back and not be that good this week, but

43
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: I am optimistic that I have finally figured out how

44
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: to handicap NFL games and this will be how it

45
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: goes all year and I will set a new record

46
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: for picking games against the spread. So that's my that's my.

47
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: What's the closest you've ever gotten to running the table?

48
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: I think I lost two games one weekend, so I

49
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: went fourteen and two. Uh, this was close, though, This

50
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: thirteen and three is close to the the goodest, the

51
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: greatest weeken I've ever had. Um, But I mean, you're

52
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 1: not gonna go sixteen for sixteen. I just think that's

53
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: un unrealistic. And then most of the year the starting

54
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: the bye weeks start. I think what week four, week

55
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: five to buy start in the NFL, so there won't

56
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: be sixteen games every weekend. But anyway, al right, let's

57
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: get to it. First game up here, Indianapolis at Tennessee,

58
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: a couple of oh and one teams. It actually will

59
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Tennessee's wont and all they beat Cleveland. Excuse me? What

60
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Indianapolis. The game's on CBS. Spiroudidas and Adam

61
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: arch Aletta are gonna be broadcasting this game. The Titans

62
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: opened up a five and a half point favorite. They

63
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: are favored by three, so it's essentially an even matchup.

64
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: You get three points as the home team. Uh, Titans

65
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: played great, pulled away late from Cleveland. I am gonna

66
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: take Tennessee. That's my pick. I'll take a why all right?

67
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: The Titans obviously could not have asked for a better

68
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: opening act. They went turbotime in the fourth quarter, close game.

69
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: The defense is wonderfully got a nasty ball hawking defense

70
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. How about Cameron Wake who played like King

71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: Kong uh for the Titans the old Miami Dolphin at

72
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: two and a half sacks, I had one that that

73
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: resulted in a safety against that woe begone Cleveland Brown's team.

74
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: And the way I look at the Titsana, I'm not

75
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: on the Marcus Mariota bandwagon, but you can cover for

76
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: the shortcomings of Marcus Mariota with the power running game.

77
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: They've got the power running game there. Uh and the defense.

78
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's a good formula there. Uh. Now

79
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: that the concern is that everyone's been kissing the Titans

80
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: ask saying how good they looked and all that. Uh,

81
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: does that? Does that mean they come back to earth

82
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: here this week and regrets to the mean? Secondly, Indian

83
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: happens now. I will give Jacobe Brissette credit. I did

84
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: not expect him to play well. He did play very

85
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: well against the Chargers last week. I don't believe he'll

86
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 1: do it again. I doubt that Marlon Mack a good

87
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: running back for the Colts, but you're talking about a

88
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: an elite Tennessee Titans defense. Mac had a hundred and

89
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: seventy four yards last week. Uh in the game against

90
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: the Charges. But this is gonna be a close game.

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: It's the divisional game. It's only three points here, and

92
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: I would I would suspect that the Tennessee Titans will

93
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: will be able to score against the Colts defense. The

94
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: Charges were able to to move the ball in a

95
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: pretty good clip there, So I believe Tennessee will pull

96
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: away and it will be the Titans thirty three and

97
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: the Colts twenty four. Will be your fun. Penny likes

101
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: Heart Radio app. All right. Next up, it's Many versus

102
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: the Penny of the l A Chargers of Carson, California,

103
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: who beat the Colts last week, take on the Lions,

104
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: who are O O and one boy. I hate that

105
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: tie thing. It's on CBS. Kevin Harland, Rich Gannon have

106
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 1: the call here of this game. The Chargers opened a

107
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: two and a half point favorite. The line he stayed flat.

108
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: The pick is in and the pick I'm gonna take

109
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: the Charges. I'm gonna take a road favorite. Try to

110
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: avoid that, but I'm gonna take the Charges in the spot.

111
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: Charges had to work over time. We just talked about

112
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: that Colts game last week. Now Detroit is a downgrade

113
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: in terms of opponent. The only thing that scares me

114
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 1: about taking the Charges here is the dreaded body clock.

115
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: Historically West Coast teams playing that early ten am kickoff

116
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 1: in the Eastern time zone. It messes up your bio

117
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: rhythms and all that. This game being played in Detroit.

118
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: But the Charges of the better team. They've been a

119
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: really good road team this era of Charger football under

120
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn. They've traveled well pretty much every game they

121
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: plays on the road. Because they have no fan base

122
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: at the stadium in Cars, a very small fan base.

123
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: So uh so for them, they're they're used to it,

124
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: and they're they're pretty strong fundamentally, pretty strong fundamentally, So

125
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: I liked them in that regard. And the secondly, it's

126
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: more a bet against the Lions than anything. The Lions

127
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: got off to a pretty good start in the game

128
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: against Arizona that they ended up tying. They played very

129
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: raggedy football on the fourth quarter. Obviously, they were careless,

130
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: they were seemingly incapable of just closing the door. There

131
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: was a phantom time out that was called that would

132
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: have sealed the game for the Lions, but the coach

133
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: called the time out. They would have got a first

134
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: down to seal the game. But but I, as I suspected,

135
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford on the road, uh not good. I like

136
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: him better at home. I think he'll be better here

137
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: in this game. But the Chargers are just more talented,

138
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: and you'd like to go with the more talented team.

139
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: It's not even a field goal points bread and so

140
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the team that should still be in

141
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: San Diego, the l A Chargers. Chargers twenty eight Lions twenty.

142
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: Your final bounce back week for Detroit. Penny is going

143
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: with the Lions. Uh No, Lions will be oh and

144
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: two on their way to a solid five and eleven season.

145
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: Technically they'll be oh one and one. If you think that, well, well,

146
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: I consider a tie a loss. I know some people don't,

147
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: but I consider a tie a loss. That's how I

148
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: lived my life. You like ties, you like participation, trop

149
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: he's gascon. I know you're into all that stuff, but

150
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: I am not. I am not part of it. All right,

151
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: time for our first quiz on Benny versus the penny,

152
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: and here it is. Bills running back Devin Singletary average

153
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: seventeen point five yards per Russia attempt in his NFL

154
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: debut last week, the second highest average by any player

155
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: in his first career game since the merger, with a

156
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: minimum of at least four carries behind blank. Okay, so,

157
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary running back for Buffalo average seventeen and a

158
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: half yards per Russia attempt in his NFL debut, second

159
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: highest average by any player in his first career games

160
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: since the merger. Again the criteria minimum four starts of

161
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: four carries behind Blank. The answer coming up shortly. Now.

162
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: You can't send the answer in on Twitter because you

163
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: know it's a podcast, but you can you can know

164
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: whether you got it right or not, so have the

165
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: answer in your head. I'll give you the answer in

166
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: a second. Next up, speaking of the Bills, Buffalo and

167
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: the Giants, It's on cb ask the Bills one and

168
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: oh the New York Giants, oh and one. Greg Gubble

169
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: and Trent Green have the call on this on television.

170
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: The the Bills opened a two and a half point favorite.

171
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: The line I have in front of me here at

172
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: the current line as we're doing this in real time

173
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: is one and a half. So Buffalo Road favorite by

174
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: one and a half. I'm I'm gonna go out here

175
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: and go somewhere I don't normally go. I'm gonna take

176
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills is a small road favorite. I didn't

177
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: think I would ever take the Buffalo Bills as a

178
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: small road favorite. But I like the moxie the Bills

179
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: play with defensively, and it's like they've almost relocated to

180
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: New Jersey. Here they're the only team in New York

181
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: and in Buffalo. All the other teams in New York

182
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: who claimed to be from New York, playing over in

183
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: New Jersey, but just across the river there. But the

184
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: Bills played the Jets last weekend. They are back at

185
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium this week against the Giants. Equally bad team

186
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 1: Giants actually worse than the Jets. Uh. Josh Allen continues

187
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: to be a disorganized mess for large chunks of the game.

188
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: He looks bewildered, discombobulated. Uh. And then there's some kind

189
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: of spell that goes over him. And he's been doing

190
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: this sporadically where he he then turns into like the

191
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly circa of the early nineties Buffalo Bills, that

192
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: vintage of the business. Very bizarre Josh Allen. Just to

193
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: prove my point, my evidence here, Josh Allen had a

194
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: forty four passer rating, no touchdowns, and two interceptions over

195
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: the first three quarters last week against the Jets. He

196
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: was Kyler Murray bad. All right, that's how bad. That's bad.

197
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: That is bad. And then Josh Allen, the Bill's quarterback,

198
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: went turbotime. Had a hundred and forty two point five

199
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: passer rating. He was eight of ten a hundred and

200
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: two yards in the fourth quarter of the game. For

201
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: the for for Buffalo. It's insane how you could be

202
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: that bad for the Bulk. And Allen does this all

203
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: the time. I Murray played well late in the game,

204
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: but for three quarters he was horrible and the Cardinals

205
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: should have lost that That game is a shame they tie,

206
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: which I consider loss anyway. Uh, how about this fun

207
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: fact Josh Allen has thrown for two hundred plus yards

208
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: in each of his last six games. How bad have

209
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: the Buffalo quarterbacks been. The last Bills quarterback to throw

210
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: for two hundred plus yards in seven straight games was

211
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly. I just mentioned Jim. Jim Kelly was the

212
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: last one. You know how old Jim Kelly is right now?

213
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 1: He's he's fifty nine, all right. He hadn't played in

214
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: a long time. Uh. In fact, Jim Kelly last played

215
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: in NFL game back in and still had that. It's

216
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 1: not three hundred yards, its two hundred yards. That is football,

217
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: and competence is what that is. Now. The second part

218
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: of this is we handicapped this game. The Giants. They

219
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 1: committed their own football malpractice in dollars. They played careless,

220
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: sloppy football, especially on defense. They turned Dakota Prescott into

221
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 1: Drew Brees. You figured things should get easier because that

222
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's spurred attic with his play here. But when

223
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: you are undisciplined and generally untalented, that typically turns every

224
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: quarterback into a legend. So this is this is an

225
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: even matchup in terms of offense. I don't think I

226
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: don't think the Giants offense is any worse than the

227
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: Bills offense. But the key advantage here, the trump card

228
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: is the Buffalo Bills defense. As we always say, defense

229
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: travels well. Love the Bills defensively, So I'm gonna put

230
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: my money, even as a small road favorite. I'm gonna

231
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: take the Buffalo Bills Buffalo nineteen the Giants sixteen Danger Danger.

232
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: Penny is going with the home team again in New

233
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: York Giants. Alright, tire, you going with the home team.

234
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: That's when you've been on bad teams, bad things happen.

235
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: That's generally how that works, So good luck. Be sure

236
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays

237
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. Gotta pay off

238
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: the quiz I mentioned Bills running back Devin Singletary Average

239
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: seventeen and a half yards rush in his NFL debut.

240
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: That's the most of any player in his first career

241
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: game since the merger minimum four starts behind Blank. It's

242
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: actually second highest behind Blank. Do you have an answer, Gascon,

243
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the nobleman here. I'm gonna go

244
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: with a former giant as a Dave Meggett. Dave Meggatt. Uh,

245
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: I see what you did there, Dave Meggett kind of

246
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: a scatback. No, the answer is a former Chicago beart

247
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:36,719
Speaker 1: who had a rather undistinguished NFL career, but he does

248
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: have this bizarre obscure record. Khalil Bell. Remember Khalil Bell? Yes,

249
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: he wasn't very good in the NFL, was he? I

250
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: know he went to u C. L A if I

251
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: remember correctly, A gutty little bruin. Yeah. I think he's

252
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: in wrestling now. Somebody I read somewhere that he's Uh.

253
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how this popped up, but he's like

254
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 1: doing stuff with the w w E or like that.

255
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: I think. I don't know, maybe maybe I made that up.

256
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. We got it on Fox now so

257
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: we can watch that eventually. Yeah, alright, moving on It's

258
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: Benny versus the Penny. Week two of the NFL got

259
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: a lot of games to get to Arizona, oh oh

260
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: and one at Baltimore. One to know, it's on Fox

261
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: someone named Brandon Garden along with Chris Carter and Pete Trigger.

262
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: He's the field reporter will be calling this game. You

263
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: are aware of Brandon Garden? E A U D I N. Yeah,

264
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: he's actually the uh little envious. He's actually the voice

265
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: of Madden Football. Oh is that right? Yeah, you know,

266
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: along with Charles Davis. Yeah, you know. I used to

267
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: work with someone that was a voice over artist on

268
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: Madden Football, the great Tony Bruno. No kidding. Yeah, at

269
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: one period in the early two thousands, I believe it

270
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: was Tony Bruno was They had a sports talk radio

271
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: feature in Madden and Bruno was like on the game

272
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: that it's pretty you're connected to some really good people

273
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: that are high up the food chain. Like, I'm surprised

274
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: you're not. Wow, I mean, this is this is not

275
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: about you, guess it's the fifth Hours about me. Okay,

276
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: let's go all right. Ravens opened a thirteen and a

277
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: point favorite. There down to thirteen. I am going to

278
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: take the Cardinals. I hope I am wrong. I would

279
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: like to lose this game. I would like the Ravens

280
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: to win forty one to nothing. I think that would

281
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: be great. But I as a gambler, the gambler in

282
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: me who has done this for a few years, knows

283
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: that the only way to bet this game is the Cardinals.

284
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray had the most incomplete passes by a rookie

285
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: in his first NFL start since the a f L

286
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: NFL merger, and now he goes against the team. You

287
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: compare the Ravens defense to the Lions defense, moron, I mean,

288
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: my gut, the Baltimore defense is is an elite defense.

289
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: There are a great defense and all that, and the Lions, Yeah,

290
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: I like some of the players they have on defense,

291
00:15:55,640 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: but that's not an all time great defensive football teams.

292
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: So you're gonna have to to play much better against

293
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: a ferocious defense in on on the road. At first glance,

294
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: this is a recipe for disaster, and that certainly explains

295
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: the points Bright plus you we'll get to in a minute. Here.

296
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: You also have what happened last week. This has all

297
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: the ingredients to a blowout in favor of Baltimore. But

298
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: I despise betting big favorites. It goes against my gambling pedigree.

299
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: I got burned too many times bett in the chalk,

300
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: choking on the chalk, as they say in the gambling world. Uh,

301
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: so I gotta take Arizona and saying in Baltimore took

302
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: advantage of a wounded sea animal. They sliced up the

303
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: Dolphins last week, as we said into sushi. Uh in Miami,

304
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: they played gutless football. So I don't put too much

305
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: stock into Baltimore being so much better than everyone else

306
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: that they're gonna score fifty nine points and Lamar Jackson's

307
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: gonna be better than Tom Brady and all that. Uh,

308
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: that's what the book he wants though, right, But what

309
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: the book he wants, They the oddsmakers use the public

310
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: perception to their advantage. Like they know that Baltimore is

311
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: not you know, they should not be thirteen point favorites

312
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: over areas not a thirteen points separate these teams. But

313
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: they know they know the public will no matter what

314
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: the line is, because Baltimore played so well and the

315
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: end team they're gonna put, people are gonna bet on Baltimore.

316
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson had a game to join the book of Legends.

317
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: I would think that that does not happen back to

318
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: back weeks. Even though Arizona is not a great defensive

319
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: team either. They have their own shortcomings here, but at

320
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: least they're gonna be trying something the Miami Dolphins did

321
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: not do. They had no ambition, they were they were

322
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: completely checked out there going through the motions and and

323
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 1: all those kind of terms that you want to use.

324
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,959
Speaker 1: There was a half asked effort, uh and and just

325
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 1: no enthusiasm. No. I believe Arizona will start out with

326
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: some enthusiasm, but in the end, in the end, I

327
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: will take the Ravens to win, but the Cardinals to

328
00:17:54,920 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: win the money Ravens thirty, Cardinals twenty, and I expect

329
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray to have several more batted passes in a

330
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: bunch of incompleation, Penny will follow you all the way

331
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 1: to Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals. All right, we

332
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: agree on that. Next up, New England at Miami, another

333
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: big point spread game. Patriots one at Old Dolphins, oh

334
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: and one many sink the Patriots the most impressive team

335
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: in Week one, even more than the Ravens because the

336
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: Ravens didn't play a real opponent. The Patriots just schooled

337
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: the Steelers games on CBS. I An Eagle and Dan

338
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: Fouts have the the call on this. The line. The

339
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: Patriots opened a fourteen and a half point favorite. That's

340
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: a massive line, and now the Patriots are an eighteen

341
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. At some places is as

342
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: much as nineteen and a half. The line. I have

343
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: the place that I look at the eighteen and a

344
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: half in favor of the Patriots. So, uh, here's here's

345
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 1: what I do. I think you know where I'm going

346
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: with this. I'm not proud to do it. I'm I'm

347
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 1: ashamed to do it, but I gotta do it. I'm

348
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: taking the Miami Dolphins, all right. I'm taking the Dolphins. Now.

349
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: I wouldn't bet this game. The only way I would

350
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 1: bet the game is the Dolphins. We have to pick

351
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: every game. It's kind of the bit, you know, it's

352
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 1: kind of the stickle I here, we pick every game,

353
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: So I will take the Dolphins gun to my head.

354
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: First of all, Bill Belichick does not seem like the

355
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: type who's gonna run up the score on one of

356
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: his former gels. That's really what you have to hope for, right.

357
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: You have to hope for it because you gotta work

358
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: to win a game by twenty plus points, which is

359
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: what's essentially gonna happen have to happen. Here on the service,

360
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: it appears that Tom Brady and Antonio Brown, if even plays,

361
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: I don't know at the time we're doing this. He's

362
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: still eligible to play, is not on any list. Maybe

363
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: he will end up on a list by Sunday. But uh,

364
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: you know, you pretty much picked the final score. It's

365
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: child's play for the Patriots. If if they sleepwalk though

366
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: into Miami and don't take the opponents seriously, then we'll

367
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 1: definitely get a cover from the Dolphins. Uh, it's unthinkable

368
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 1: to see Ryan Fitzpatrick and friends actually winning the game.

369
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: I don't think that anyway they win the game. So

370
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: if a money line bet, you're just taking invest a lot,

371
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: but you're guaranteed to win outside of Tom Brady breaking

372
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 1: his ankle on the border. But they can keep it

373
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: close if they try, right. If if that's the goal,

374
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: that's the aspiration, if they desire that and they put

375
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: some work in, you're going to to be competitive. You're

376
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: gonna lose by back to back weeks. Also, I saw

377
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: this interesting stat. Now, Brian Flores the coach in Miami,

378
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 1: he will be the ninth former assistant coach under Bill Belichick,

379
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: and then face Belichick is an NFL head coach. You

380
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: know what the other eight opponents have? What their record

381
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: is against Belichick? What do you think it is? Gascon

382
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: winning percentage? Uh? Eight total games? So yeah, you know,

383
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: winning percentage or whatever you want. But I just total

384
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: wins versus losses out of eight, I'm gonna go one

385
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: and seven. No, surprisingly, I was surprised. I was blown

386
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: away by this. The other eight coaches that used to

387
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: work for Belichick having a four and four record in

388
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: their first meeting, and in all the meetings combined, there's

389
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: been twenty one matchups where former Belichick coaches, the disciples

390
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 1: of Belichick have gone against him, and ten and eleven

391
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 1: they're like close to five. I was was there, very

392
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: surprised by that. But here's another ridiculous stat about Tom

393
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: Brady and the Patriots in Miami. They've lost some games

394
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: there since Tom Brady has as many regular season losses

395
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: in Miami has as he does in Foxboro. Is that

396
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: not insane. They played one game a year there, alright. Anyway,

397
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: the other thing on this game, if the Dolphins attempt

398
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: to compete, as I said, uh, this will be easy,

399
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: you'll feel very good about that. But from a handicapping standpoint,

400
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: no travel you can bind that with. You would think

401
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: some added motivation. If you have any personal pride and

402
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: you make a team that big an underdog, that's a

403
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: slap in the face. That's a kick in the nuts.

404
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: As a as a home dog like that coming off

405
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: a home loss, that's an extra reamly it should be

406
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: an extremely dangerous spot, all things being equal. Uh, in

407
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: this case, it was a beat down a biblical proportion.

408
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: We talked about the Ravens kicking the snot out of them.

409
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: It's hard to lose that way back to back, as

410
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: we've said. And also the other thing I was trying

411
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: to look for something to go with the Dolphins here.

412
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick has actually held his own statistically against Belichick

413
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 1: coach teams, and just based on the box score right,

414
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: four straight games against New England, two fifty plus passing

415
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: yards and two plus touchdown passes and a passer rating

416
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 1: over ninety. Those are pretty good numbers. There, and I'm thinking,

417
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: if you get two touchdown passes out of Ryan Fitzpatrick

418
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: in this game, at least that will be enough to

419
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: cover an almost twenty point line. So I'm gonna close

420
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: my eyes, cover my ears, shut my mouth. Uh, and

421
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick, oh boy, the Dolphins to cover Patriots

422
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: thirty eight. Dolphins one been the penny last week, went

423
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: with you and took Miami of. This week, not so much.

424
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: They're going Patriots. Yeah, that was one of the games

425
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: I got wrong last week. I had faith in the Dolphins.

426
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a glutton for punch from them. Back at

427
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: it again with the Miami Dolphins. All right. Fox Sports

433
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: hour of course? Alright, So Cardinals white out. Larry Fitzgerald

434
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: is coming off his fifty fourth game with at least

435
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,439
Speaker 1: eight receptions. That's three more than any other player in

436
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: NFL history. Who is behind Larry Fitzgerald Again, Larry Fitzgerald

437
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: now fifty four games with at least eight receptions, three

438
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 1: more than any other player in NFL history. Who is

439
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: behind Larry Fitzgerald. Uh, we'll give you the answer in

440
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: a second. Think about that and we'll give it to you.

441
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 1: See if you're right A Dallas one and all at Washington,

442
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: Oh and one. It's all on Fox with Kevin Burkhardt

443
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: and Charles Davis and the Fox Box that rocks. The

444
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys open a seven point favorite, They're currently favorite by four,

445
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: and I have the pick here. I'm gonna take the

446
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: Redskins in this game. I'm going with Washington. A couple

447
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: of reasons why I walk you through my my thought

448
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: process here that the Cowboys took the Giants lunch money

449
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 1: last week. We talked about the game earlier here, and

450
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: they are writing high and I would believe you played

451
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys right now. You are close to overdosing

452
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: on hyperbole. If you watch the Skip Baylors type talk

453
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: shows on television, they are just lick lick, scrub scrub. Uh.

454
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: The Cowboys here, Dak Prescott had a breakout game. The

455
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys played about as well as you can play in

456
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 1: pretty much every area of the game, and now Dallas

457
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: is being It's an overreaction here. The pendulum has swung

458
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 1: too far. The Dallas is being propped up as the

459
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: real deal. This is gonna be the Dak Prescott we

460
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 1: get every week. I disagree. This game should be a

461
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: slabber knocker. It should be a this game you like

462
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: taking the underdog in a close game. The Redskins are

463
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 1: are a bad opponent. They're not as bad as the Giants,

464
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 1: uh they that. I like the way they play. They

465
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: play with some guts and guile there. They certainly played

466
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: like that in Philadelphia. The Redskins blew a seventeen point lead.

467
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: Imagine how people's heads would have exploded if they had

468
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: actually held on and won that game. But for more

469
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: than than half the game, they in a hostile environment

470
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: in Philly and a good Eagles team. On Eagles team

471
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: that's more talented than the Cowboys, the Redskins were right there.

472
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: And case Keenum, you know, he is not a great quarterback,

473
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: his second tier quarterback. He's the middle of the road,

474
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: as they say. But he was the top losing quarterback

475
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: in Week one. Statistically, case Keenum, who lost, He had

476
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: three yards passing, three touchdowns, no interceptions and was only

477
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: sacked one time. It's really good. It's like really really good.

478
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: And they still lost the game. Close, lost, late loss.

479
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: Although they did, it wasn't that close. They got a

480
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: backdoor cover, which I think the Redskins for. Uh, that's

481
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: a reason like the Redskins that are open to the

482
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 1: back door cover. I saw Adrian Peterson's gonna slide in

483
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: as the starter there as the the geist man already

484
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: out one week into his NFL season. He's injury prone,

485
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: so it's gonna be Adrian Peterson. Cowboys will have a

486
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: tougher time on the road. I like home dogs, division

487
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: no games. You're getting some value here. It's not I

488
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: like it more if it was seven. But I like

489
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 1: the four and a half Washington still early in the year.

490
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 1: They got some fight in them. Cowboys come back to Earth,

491
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: close game, fourth quarter game, Cowboys thirty, Redskins twenty six.

492
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: Penny likes the back door action on the Skins taking

493
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: Washington much like you like that back door action all right? Uh.

494
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 1: The quizzier guess on the Cardinals Larry Fitzgerald coming off

495
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: his fifty four career game with at least eight receptions,

496
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: three more than any other player in NFL history who

497
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: is second? Do you have an answer? I do, and

498
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: I think I know this one actually, all right? Is

499
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: it former Brown Dante Stalworth, the Great Dante? Wow? Uh? No,

500
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: I know he's your favorite driver because he actually drives

501
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: better than you, which is amazing thing. Yea, but yeah, uh,

502
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 1: the answer is Marvin Harrison. Marvin Harrison, who also has

503
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: a shady past car wash. Yeah, you know, baseball, bats,

504
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 1: guns in the whole. Why not. You gotta live, you

505
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: gotta live the life. Man. Don't judge. Don't judge Marvin Harrison.

506
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's a fine, fine guy. I did a

507
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: whole monologue. Remember years ago. One of the things Marvin

508
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: Harrison said the Colts I think it was the first

509
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: time they were in the Super Bowl with Peyton Manning

510
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 1: that they lost, and Marvin Harrison was like, I wish

511
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: we could play this game in an empty stadium with

512
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: no fans there. He said that, Remember that? Yeah. I

513
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: was like, I was thinking, like, well, is that a

514
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: because you really are, you know, an introvert. I'm an introvert?

515
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 1: You really like that? Or is it be that you

516
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 1: just a lot of guys that are that could do

517
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 1: some crazy stuff that you don't want in the crowd,

518
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: you know, like bad guys, you know what I mean.

519
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: Guess that's a you thinking how guys like you are introverts,

520
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: yet you talked for a living. That's that's fascinating. Well,

521
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: as I tell my wife all the time, for a

522
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: few hours a day, I am an extrovert. But for

523
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: the rest of the time, when I'm not on the clock,

524
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: I I keep to myself. It's almost like it's staged, right, Uh,

525
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: not stage the way I would say it is. You

526
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: can't be like this all the time because no one

527
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: would want to be around you. You'd be unbearable. And

528
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: who wants to be around someone that is unbearable? Right,

529
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's detestable, intolerable. Um, So yeah,

530
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not know. I keep to myself and

531
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: then I talked when I'm supposed to talk, and I

532
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: shut up unlike you and I'm supposed to shut up alright.

533
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: Moving on, Benny Versus the Penny, Jacksonville at Houston. It

534
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: is on CBS Jacksonville, Owen one Houston, also oh and one.

535
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: They lost the Monday Night thriller Andrew Kitalan was his name,

536
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 1: Catalan Catalan, Andrew Catalan and James Lofton I have the

537
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: call there. The Texans opened to three and a half

538
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 1: point favorite, but this line shot all the way up

539
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: to nine nine in a divisional game. It's gonna nine

540
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: one degrees mostly sunny, but it's a dome. I assume

541
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: the dome will be closed. Maybe not if it's open

542
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: ninety one degree. Whether they're the pick is in taking Jacksonville,

543
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: Taking Jacksonville. Uh, And I'll tell you why, Number one Houston.

544
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be some hangover from what happened

545
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: in New Orleans a Monday night, short week. They blew

546
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: a huge opportunity to be the talk of the town

547
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: in the NFL. They gave that game away and so

548
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: much so. We know they gave that game away because

549
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: the guy that got burned for the game winning field

550
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 1: goal and a touchdown the second half, UH, Colvin was

551
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: released by Bill O'Brien in a very emotional, uh emotional situation.

552
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brian was like bewildered. He's like, I gotta get

553
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: rid of this guy. It's embarrassing. So he just released

554
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: the guy with a paid him like seven million hours

555
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: to go away. So that tells you the mindset of

556
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: the coaching staff. That tells you the mindset of the

557
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: locker room. That O'Brien sending the message, I don't care

558
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: who the f you are. If you don't do your job,

559
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fire your ass. It so sense to know

560
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: what he said. And how about this J. J. Watt,

561
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: Much like David Gascon, they have something in common. They're

562
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: both guilty of being tardy and absentee. Is um uh

563
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: Gascon This podcast being recorded much later than it was

564
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: supposed to be because Gascon uh doesn't know how to

565
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: book a flight. But now now they are. Now they're

566
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: banged up as well. So typically a poor Jaguar team

567
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: is just what the doctor ordered. But this line, to

568
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: me is inflated. It's inflated. I don't think it's right.

569
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: And and secondly, now Jacksonville, I know they're not anywhere

570
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: in the same class as Kansas City. I get that,

571
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: but that that's the Texans are are as aren't as

572
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: good an opponent either, like Garden Minshew Uh. This is

573
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: a great unknown here. I'm I'm gambling that Minshew is

574
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: going to be okay. I don't think it'll be great,

575
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: but I think it'll be okay. That's his first NFL start,

576
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: so it's a lot different when you come off the

577
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: bench and you're just playing in garbage time as opposed

578
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: to being the guy and practicing all week. He is

579
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: the main reason that Jacksonville is such a big dog.

580
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 1: The gambling market does not think this guy is that good.

581
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: He don't think he can hold his own against the

582
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: Texas defense. Minshew is a disciple of Mike Leach. He

583
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: actually played one year from Mike Leach, I believe, but

584
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: he he bounced around. I like the guy because he's

585
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: a Juico guy and all that. Uh. And he played

586
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: at Washington State, but he played some other schools and

587
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: the one thing I love about him, And we'll see

588
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: if it plays out. It certainly played out last week.

589
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: The most important skill for any quarterback is what accuracy?

590
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: That's right, accuracy exactly. Uh So that's that's his claim

591
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: to fame. He he is accurate. He's more accurate than anybody.

592
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: So if you get the ball, even bad receivers on Jacksonville,

593
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: you get them the ball, give them an opportunity to

594
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 1: make plays. I think that's a good situation. To cultivate

595
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: at least covering the point spread. So I like his answers.

596
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,959
Speaker 1: This week jackson will come and out showing that fighting spirit.

597
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: They got blown off the field by Kansas City last week.

598
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: But Nick Foles, there's a shot here. You're talking about

599
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: being an overreaction neary talk show guy or podcaster. Nick Foles,

600
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: remember you heard here first. Could get Kurt warnered by

601
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: Gardner Mitchell about that hot take. Come on, is that

602
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: not a hot take. It's a little warm. It's a

603
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: little warm. That's a The guy's got the mustache. She

604
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: looks like a civil war fighter or something like the

605
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies. Now, my optimism does have his limits. I

606
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: look for a bounce back performance for the Jags defense.

607
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: They will keep this game close. Divisional games generally are close,

608
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: and as I often say, anytime you get over a

609
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: touchdown in a divisional game, you know the drill, right,

610
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 1: you take those points. Texans will win, but they will

611
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: not cover the nine. Houston seven. Jacksonville twenty penny is

612
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: riding in the home opening for the Houston Texans. Keep

613
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: an eye on de Shawn Watson. He will be in

614
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: the injury tent by halftime. That's usually where he ends up.

615
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: All right. Uh, Next up Seattle at Pittsburgh. This is

616
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: a big game this weekend. A couple of teams thought

617
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: that think they are good. Although I don't have Pittsburgh

618
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: feels after their loss in the opener. Seattle did win,

619
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: didn't get any style points against the Cincinnati Bengals. It

620
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: is on Fox. Kenny Albert and Ronda Barber have the call.

621
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: The Steelers opened at three point home favorite at Hines Field.

622
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: The line is at four right now in favor of

623
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: the black and gold of the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm gonna

624
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: go the other way. The pick is in. I'm gonna

625
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: take the Seattle Seahawks. Uh. In this game A couple

626
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: of reasons why all right? This game has a cover

627
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: your eyes and say any meany mighty mode type of

628
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: field too. As far as picking the winner, I don't

629
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: think there's a lot separating it seems. I expect Pittsburgh

630
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: to play better. I can make compelling arguments both ways.

631
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: You like Pittsburgh in the bounce back not normally under

632
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: Mike Tom And they don't have two games in a

633
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: row like that's really hard. And if you're trying to

634
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: have two games, uh in a row like that. Going

635
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: to Foxboro has been uh one of the nine circles

636
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: of hell. Uh it's a bottomless pit of everlasting fire

637
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: for the for the Steelers there and in Brimstone and

638
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: all that, they just don't do well in foxborog the

639
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: Steelers here, here's the big issue for them. I don't

640
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: know how you overcome this. They're lacking playmakers. Ben Roethlisberger looked, old,

641
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: you look bad when you lose Juju Smith Schuster was

642
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: lacking separation for most of that game until the game

643
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: was lopsided. Uh. And and I think it is Dante

644
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: mind creef. I believe it is the number two receiver

645
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,959
Speaker 1: for the Steelers. I mean, what are we doing here? Uh?

646
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: So they can either feel sorry for themselves and powder

647
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: or they can come out and put the big boys

648
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: boxer shorts on there and CounterPunch. I expect him to CounterPunch.

649
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be enough, though, because Seattle is

650
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: also looking for redemption. That's the second thing here. The Seahawks.

651
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: They did win, but it's one of those things. If

652
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: you didn't watch the game, you don't know. This was

653
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: not a thing of beauty. This was a struggle. The

654
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: struggle is real. Uh. And and you know, trying to

655
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: decode the Ehawks and say, what the hell was that?

656
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 1: I mean, what are you doing here? You played like

657
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: dirty dishes in the sink for most of that game.

658
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: You're lucky to win because of some things that went

659
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: your way. But it was a a disorganized, muddled, uh,

660
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: discombobulated type of Seahawks performance, which is not normally what

661
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 1: happened in Seattle has been very good at beating up

662
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: the weaker opponents. That Banks was supposed to be a

663
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: weaker opponent, uh, etcetera, etcetera. But anyway, listen, Cincinnati was

664
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: able to matriculate the ball down the field at will.

665
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 1: In fact, just to prove my point, how bad was it?

666
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: The Bengals had ten more first downs in the Seahawks

667
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: last week had almost two hundred more yards of offense. Now,

668
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: Chris Carson and the running game never got going. While

669
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson his stat line was good, but I feel

670
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: like it was misleading this game. I don't watch every

671
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,320
Speaker 1: second on this game. It was in my rotation. I

672
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: make my own red zone channel on Sundays, and I

673
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: did watch a good chunk of this because I was like, Wow,

674
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,399
Speaker 1: the Bengals actually have a shot. So I kept going

675
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: back to that game. Uh. And in the end it

676
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: was a seesaw game. But in the end, the Bengals

677
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: obviously did not get the job done. I expect a better,

678
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: stronger performance by Seattle. Were they looking ahead to Pittsburgh

679
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: the old the peekaboo uh, and that's why they were

680
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,359
Speaker 1: befuddled by the Bengals. I expect them to play better here,

681
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: defensively in particular, and take advantage of that week linked

682
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 1: on the Steelers offense Seattle thirty the Steelers twenty four.

683
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: Your final penny says time for another quiz. Here's the

684
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: quiz I asked. Stunning thirty two point one percent of

685
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: my receptions have gone for touchdowns in my young career,

686
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: by far, the most among all active players. Who am I?

687
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 1: It's like a mini who am I? Game? Again? A

688
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: stunning thirty two point one percent of my receptions have

689
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: gone for touchdowns in my young career, by far, the

690
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: most among active players. Who am I? Answer? Coming shortly?

691
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 1: See how smart yard? See if you see how you're doing?

692
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,720
Speaker 1: To keep track of this all? Right? Next up Santa

693
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: Clara at Sincecinnati it's on Fox. Tom Brenneman doesn't have

694
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 1: to go anywhere. He lives in Cincinnati does Red's games.

695
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: He's on the Fox box that Rocks. Calling this game.

696
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: Chris Spielman will be alongside another former Buckeye right back

697
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: in the day, Chris Spielman. So Brennanman and Spielman in

698
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 1: the in the Fox booth. The game opened, the Niners

699
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: were actually a one and a half point favorite. Now

700
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,240
Speaker 1: the Bengals, though, are a one and a half point

701
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: favorite in this game. Gonna be mostly sunny eighty three

702
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: degrees at kick off from Paul Brown Stadium. This is

703
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 1: the second back to back a roadie for the forty Niners.

704
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 1: I am gonna take the Bengals here. I'm gonna take

705
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: Cincinnati as a small home favorite in this game. I'll

706
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: tell you why. Santa Clara that's really really playing in

707
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: San Francisco and Santa Clara. And if you know Bay

708
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: Area traffic, that is a not a hop, skip and

709
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: a jump from the heart of the Bay Area, but

710
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: anyway where a lot of the business is done. But uh,

711
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 1: Santa Clara very fortunate to be the beneficiary of football

712
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 1: negligence by Jamis Winston, the doctor Jacko Mr Hyde Jamis Winston,

713
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,759
Speaker 1: who literally in figuratively was on his deathbed against the

714
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: forty Niners in terms of turnovers, and then the Niners

715
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: were the beneficiary of that. Jimmy Garoppolo was not exactly

716
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: Steve Young on the other side, He wasn't even Jeff Garcia.

717
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: Jimmy g had marginal numbers. Santa Clara had just two

718
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: D fifty six yards of all offense against the Buccaneers.

719
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: That is not a sustainable formula for winning on the road.

720
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: The Niners are also historically horrific in this spot. Recently,

721
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: since the forty Niners are one in nine on the

722
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: road against a FC opponents. Now that's a trend, but

723
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 1: it's a trend. Who's a friend, h if you believe

724
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,839
Speaker 1: in the power of the trend, and be of all

725
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: the new coaches in the NFL, who would have predicted

726
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: that Zack Taylor's squad would have been the most impressive? Uh,

727
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 1: even though they lost, Right, you don't get credit for

728
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: a loss and all that, But the Bengals overachieved considering

729
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 1: what we expected them to do. Many of us I

730
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: I'll pick Cincinnati the points if if the Bengals are

731
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 1: able to play anywhere close to that level another week,

732
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 1: they will win this game by a good margin because

733
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: the forty Niners are not at the same level talent

734
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: wise as Seattle. And here's another fun fact that blew

735
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 1: me away about the Bengals. I read this this week.

736
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton never had four d yards passing in any

737
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:37,280
Speaker 1: NFL game until last week. In the Pit of Vipers

738
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: in Seattle he had four eighteen yards. That never had

739
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: a fourigner yard game until last week. All these games

740
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: been around. It seems like he's been around forever with

741
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 1: the Bengals, although he's been hurt a lot. That was

742
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: that was surprising to me. So any way, to me,

743
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: this is a value play. The Bengals, small home dog

744
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: coming off a premier performance. Desirable pick Bengals thirty, forty

745
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: Niners twenty four. The penny also likes the Bengals. That's

746
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: just piggybacking my work. I'm doing the hard work here

747
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: and then the Pennies just it's like drafting, right, like

748
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 1: Nascar and just kind of drafting and then yeah, blow

749
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: right by. Yeah, I don't blame it. Last week? What

750
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: was my record again? Guest? And I forgot I have

751
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: what's that? How many wins did I have there? I

752
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: don't know how you do the math well. I proved

753
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: earlier in a different podcast. I'm not good at math well.

754
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 1: I mean you were trying to you trying to get

755
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: the billion dollars, and I was like, it's totally flummis.

756
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: You were undocumented as thirteen and three. Yeah, that is documented.

757
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: It's on the podcast This Day Night Game. I did

758
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 1: that on the radio shot the Magic Radio. Body listens

759
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: to that, that listen to this? You are such an egomaniac.

760
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: I mean there's no one listening. Okay, I've seen the numbers.

761
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: There's no one. We're talking to each other. You know

762
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: how many you had for this? The benny versus of

763
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: the penny was actually better than anything else we've done

764
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: so far. You know what you remind me of? You

765
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 1: remind me of that old Penn and Teller show bullshit

766
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 1: because you're full of bullshit. Okay. I want to point

767
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 1: out that's a line I would use on the radio

768
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: show if I was allowed to use the word bullshit.

769
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: I think that's a great line. I used to love

770
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: the show bullshit that was. It was a wonderful program

771
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 1: and they I wish they would bring that show back.

772
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: It's great. I watched some of those old episodes on YouTube.

773
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: Was a big fan of the bullshit. I would you

774
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: use that on anyone on your staff or just the callers? Oh,

775
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: I would use it on well, like Cooper Loop. It

776
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: thinks every year before every season, Cooper Loop thinks the

777
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 1: Angels are gonna win the World Series. He thinks the

778
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: Broncos are gonna win the Super Bowl, the Lakers are

779
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: gonna the Lakers in particular, he's been so wrong about

780
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 1: the Lakers for so many years, like it's uh, it's great.

781
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: He was so devastated last year when the Clippers had

782
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: a better record than the Lakers, with the Lakers having

783
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: Lebron James. It just broke his heart. It just broke

784
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: his heart. And so yeah, and I've made a lot

785
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: of money. I want like a hundred bucks on a

786
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: bet I made with Danny g back when we were

787
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: friends before he went down the wrong avenue there. But yeah,

788
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: but I you bet against your staff, Well, we had

789
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: a bet on the Lakers and Clippers. I think it

790
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 1: was who would have a better record, and he took

791
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: the Lakers. I took the Clippers and the I want

792
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: you you make you make like ten times the amount

793
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: of your staff does, and you're betting against them. That's

794
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: a lie. That's not a lie, that a think. Do

795
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 1: you feel good about that? When you go to bed?

796
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: Like lay your head on your pillow and yeah, well

797
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: I go into my sleep. Number bet is what you

798
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: meant to say? Yes, I feel great about it. We

799
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 1: gotta pay off this quiz. Alright, you you gotta make

800
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 1: this a three hour podcast? Is what you're gonna do?

801
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: All right? Uh so, A stunning thirty two point one

802
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: percent of my receptions have gone for touchdowns in my

803
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 1: young career, by far the most among active players. Who

804
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: am I? Do you have an answer? I will go

805
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: with the uh, the Cheetah. I'll go with Tyreek Kill.

806
00:42:56,360 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: Tyrekill has a fine fine guesses flaw that it's not right.

807
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,399
Speaker 1: I like when you're wrong. It makes me feel better

808
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 1: about myself. The correct answer is a Cincinnati Bengal John Ross.

809
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 1: John check this out the math on this. He's got

810
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 1: twenty eight career receptions and of those twenty eight career receptions, uh,

811
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 1: thirty two point one percent have gone for Touchdow. I

812
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: think it's the numbers nine out of twenty eight so

813
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 1: so no other active player with fewer than thirty catches

814
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,919
Speaker 1: has more than five touchdowns. His problem, he's always hurt though,

815
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 1: That's his problem. He's a mess. He's always always injured there,

816
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: but he's played, He's he's been a touchdown maker. Wait

817
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: till Hollywood Brown plays a couple more games for Baltimore.

818
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: Well we'll see. I saw he's hurt. He popped up

819
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 1: on the injury list this week. Yeah, well you can

820
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: play the Dolphins, Hollywood Brown, man. That guy's gonna break

821
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 1: Jerry Rice's record. My god. I mean, if you really

822
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: want to increase the degree of difficulty guests and you

823
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,760
Speaker 1: turn on some high powered fans, wouldn't cause more problems

824
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: on the Dolphins defense. Okay, anyway, I'm moving on. It's

825
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 1: Penny versus the Penny. Next up for US Minnesota at

826
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: Green Bay. It's on Fox. You better watch with Chris

827
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 1: Myers and Darryl Moose Johnston. The Packers opened a three

828
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 1: point favorite. Packer is currently favorite by three the pick

829
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 1: like the Minnesota Vikings, here him, I'm riding the Vikings.

830
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 1: I'm wearing my purple rain outfit right now. Number one.

831
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: Uh Aaron Rodgers, I know he looked pretty bad. He

832
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,879
Speaker 1: looked like a mortal mire mortal against the Chicago Bears

833
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: in the opening. Other than a pretty good second quarter,

834
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,399
Speaker 1: he was a no show. Now is that game an aberration?

835
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 1: Or is Aaron Rodgers going to regress as as the

836
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 1: aging process goes for We don't know yet. Chicago is

837
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: a very good defense. But guess what spoiler alert as

838
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: I like to say, Minnesota I believe has a better defense.

839
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: They're gonna be better statistically than the team over there

840
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: from Chicago. So Rogers has to have some angst here

841
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: and some heartburn looking at the tape with the Vikings

842
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: bringing defensively. Now. Secondly, Mike Zimmer had the Vikings playing

843
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: old school blue collar football. He said he was gonna

844
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 1: do it. He actually did it in the opener, A

845
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: systematic takedown of the Falcons. What's not to like about that?

846
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: If you're a Viking fan. They had gotten away from

847
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: that last season. They had gone away from their their

848
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 1: core beliefs. Kirk Cousins only attempted ten passes, which is

849
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: criminal if you have him in fantasy football. But that's

850
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,719
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies style football. In fact, to prove that, I

851
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: have some numbers here that you know this actually worked

852
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 1: out well, a couple of things, A couple of stats

853
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: that I I wrote down here. Uh, since two thousand

854
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: NFL teams are nine and one when attempting ten or

855
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: fewer passes in a game, and and the Vikings last

856
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: game with ten or fewer past attempts came when David

857
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 1: Gascon just turned thirty years old back in nineteen seventies seven.

858
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: That was the last time. So I remember you had

859
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: a good birthday nineteen seventy seven. You told me about it.

860
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: I wouldn't alive then, but you told me about I'm

861
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:05,320
Speaker 1: at least two decades younger than you. For the record,

862
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 1: that is a lie, a lie again. You're watching the

863
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: show bullshit is what you're doing here, all right. Uh

864
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: So let's see how this formula works against the Packers.

865
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 1: I I like I like it. The Minnesota defense obviously

866
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 1: played very well in stat LANDA last week. The Packers

867
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: also be fair twisted Mitch Drabinski in the Notts. I

868
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,320
Speaker 1: like the Vikings with the running game, the smash mouth football,

869
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: the ground and pound approach. The Vikings will be depending

870
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: depending on that defense, that lunch pail defense, and they

871
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 1: are better than the Packers, and I believe they will

872
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 1: win this game comfortably. Even though it's a divisional game.

873
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: They're getting some points here. Vikings thirty three, Packers twenty.

874
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: Hate the pick, hate the face. Penny is going with

875
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,919
Speaker 1: the Packers. Yeah, well I hate you too. Okay, that's

876
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 1: a lot of hate, a lot of hate. Raide to

877
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 1: go down. You know, you know we're doing this show

878
00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 1: with you is like gas hunt, but this is like,

879
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:06,399
Speaker 1: this is like eating a Porterhouse steak, some corn. He's

880
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: like going on the Titanic is what? You just know

881
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 1: there's the iceberg, got this somewhere. You don't know when

882
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: you're gonna hit it, but you know there's an iceberg

883
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 1: out there. Good for entertainment then, right, yeah, exactly? All right,

884
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,959
Speaker 1: moving on, here's another quiz. I'm into these dopey quiz

885
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 1: I think this is increasing the enjoyment of the listener.

886
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: Tell me, if you don't like these guys, give me

887
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: some feedback, email me Real Fifth Hour with Ben Mallart.

888
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: It's f I F T H. I like these things.

889
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 1: If you don't like him, I won't put him in

890
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: here because I like these dopey quizzes, and I mean,

891
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: that's just how I roll. So if you don't like him,

892
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 1: I'll get room. If you like him, I'll keep him going.

893
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 1: And I even put more in if you want. I

894
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: don't care. I'm easier that way. I mean, you can

895
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: go on for seven hours with these podcasts. Christian McCaffrey

896
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: accounted for fifty seven point one percent of Carolina's yards

897
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,720
Speaker 1: in the opener from scrimmage back in week one. Blank

898
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: had the second highest percentage of scrimmage yards after Christian

899
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: McCaffrey of the Panthers. That's the question. The answer coming

900
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 1: up here in a couple of minutes now the late

901
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: television Can you believe it? Yes, we've actually moved now

902
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: to the late television window. Oh god, I feel like

903
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: we would never have gotten to the late television window.

904
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,280
Speaker 1: And did you didn't tell your audience that you forced

905
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,319
Speaker 1: me to fly back from a nice getaway to come

906
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: here and record this damn thing, You and your stupid penny.

907
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: You forced me to come back way elder than I

908
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: wanted to, and they need to and I had to

909
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 1: do it. For you and obviously the greater good. Uh well,

910
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: I believe we have this thing called free will in

911
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 1: the United States, and you have the latitude to come back,

912
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 1: and I think the request was made that you could

913
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 1: come back at an earlier time. I looked at the website.

914
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 1: You said there were there were no flights, So I

915
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 1: looked at the website. I saw like seven flights that

916
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 1: you could have taken that would have been more. You're

917
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: not flexible. You have no flexibility, and you you have

918
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 1: apparently you think you have carte blanche here to do

919
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 1: whatever the hell you want. You're a diva. You're like

920
00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: Lebron James or Antonio Brown, that's what you are. For

921
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 1: the record Jet Blue, when we had two flights going

922
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,799
Speaker 1: in the Long Beach, Yeah, both would have worked out better.

923
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 1: You could have driven for you were I guess in Sacramento.

924
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 1: You could have driven down to Oakland, it's not that

925
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,399
Speaker 1: far away, or San Francisco and to the other Bay

926
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: area airports. It's like a forty five minute drive. I

927
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 1: don't make the money. You make it costly, like a

928
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: hundred dollars just to drive up here to the studio

929
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,919
Speaker 1: to come record this damn thing. Just admit your lazy.

930
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 1: All right, you're trying to paint me as some kind

931
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: of death spot or something like that. Like I'm like,

932
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: it's tyranny. There's no tyranny, alright, there's no I'm not

933
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 1: a schoolyard bully or anything like that. This I expect

934
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 1: the Code of the West. You don't even follow the

935
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 1: Code of the West. Gascon. I gotta team. Well, we'll

936
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: have to do that next week on on the other

937
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 1: show that we do the Code of the West, because

938
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 1: I need to go through that because I need people

939
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: to live like me with the Code of the West.

940
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: Are you done? I'm done. Let's go all right, Kansas

941
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:50,960
Speaker 1: City one to know at Oakland one and oh it's

942
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 1: on CBS. Jim Nance and Tony Romo. This is a

943
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,880
Speaker 1: big game for CBS. That's the A team. The Chiefs

944
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 1: opened up a eight and a half point favorite. This

945
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 1: game is up to nine and a half. No, Tyreek Hill,

946
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:08,240
Speaker 1: he's out. Sammy Watkins becomes the man for the team

947
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: from the Heartland, and I'm gonna take the Raiders in

948
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: this game. Actually, I'm gonna take the Raiders. Short week

949
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 1: home game divisional opponent Patrick Mahomes. This he's gonna be great.

950
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:23,879
Speaker 1: He has been able to overcome the standard in competence

951
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: of the defense in Kansas City and get ws. In fact,

952
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: he's been remarkable so far in covering UH for that

953
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,480
Speaker 1: week spot on the Chiefs Mahomes. Just to make my point, now,

954
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 1: this is straight up. There's been ten games Mahomes has

955
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 1: played quarterback where the Chiefs have allowed twenty six points

956
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 1: or more, ten of them already, He's only been starting

957
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 1: for a little over a year, and ten of them.

958
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: His record in those games five and five. Now, just

959
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 1: to prove how good that is. The Seattle Seahawks going

960
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,800
Speaker 1: back to I read the status this week, Since the

961
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 1: Seahawks have played fifty seven games where their defense is

962
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,760
Speaker 1: of an up twenty six or more points, their record

963
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 1: is five and fifty two. All right, Mahomes five and five,

964
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 1: that's amazing. Now the Chiefs are ten and two against

965
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,880
Speaker 1: the Raiders in the Andy Reid Era in ken is

966
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 1: a city, and they've outscored the Raiders by twelve points

967
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: per game. That tells you what has happened. It doesn't

968
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 1: tell you what's going to happen. I know I'm taking

969
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: a leap of faith here, but The second thing, any

970
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,279
Speaker 1: time you get over a touchdown again divisional game, you

971
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,800
Speaker 1: know the drill, the formula that I use here, You

972
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: would be a fool not to take that. The Raiders

973
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,919
Speaker 1: played with some some gusto. I don't know if that's

974
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 1: the right word, but I I liked. I was impressed.

975
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: I did not expect that performance, especially from the offensive line.

976
00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,760
Speaker 1: The Broncos have an amazing defense, at least they're supposed

977
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,319
Speaker 1: to have an amazing defense with Von Miller and all that,

978
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: and those guys were completely overpowered by the Raider offensive

979
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 1: lines could not to Derek Carr. And you gotta think

980
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 1: that happens again. Derek car is gonna have time here

981
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: if you can stop the Broncho goes. I know it's

982
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: a simpleton's way to handicap, but you would think you'd

983
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 1: be able to stop Kansas City's weak ass limp limp

984
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 1: biscuit type of pass rush present. So but anyway, and

985
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 1: the other thing here is in Gardner Minshew. Even though

986
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 1: the game was a blowout, he completed eighty eight percent

987
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,279
Speaker 1: of his passage. He sent a new record for a

988
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 1: first time playing a quarterback in the end film in

989
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 1: their debut, I expect Derek Carr to hold his own.

990
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 1: This is gonna be a back and forth, the end

991
00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:30,839
Speaker 1: of the Yang type situation, dueling pianos. Now in the end,

992
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:32,839
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have more offense and the Chiefs will win,

993
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,399
Speaker 1: but the Raiders will score their points and certainly enough

994
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 1: to cover a nine and a half point spread. Kansas

995
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 1: City thirty seven, Oakland one penny going at the home

996
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 1: team like Arrowhead and the Chiefs. Okay, we'll pay off

997
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 1: the question. Christian McCaffrey accounted for fifty seven point one

998
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: per cent of Carolina's yards from scrimmage back in week

999
00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: number one. Blank had the second highest percentage in the NFL.

1000
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 1: And we again go to guest Gun because we're not

1001
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: taking calls on this show. The lines are the lines

1002
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,439
Speaker 1: are full, unless they're not. We have no phone lines

1003
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: here in the studio seven seven on podcast. How about this,

1004
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs? What about it? He was good? Josh Jacobs?

1005
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: Was it was? It was very good? Is that your answer? Yeah,

1006
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: you're wrong. The correct answer is Dalvin Cook of the

1007
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. You know why that is because the Vikings

1008
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: told them all only ten times. Dalvin Cook had forty

1009
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:35,919
Speaker 1: four point four percent of the Vikings yards from scrimmage,

1010
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 1: he had a hundred and twenty yards of the two

1011
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy the Vikings had, so seconds a right.

1012
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 1: Next up New Orleans at Los Angeles, the Rams. Both

1013
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 1: teams wanted. Oh, it's on Fox with Joe Buck and

1014
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: Troy Acmoso. Joe Buck's gotta make that transcontinental. Actually just

1015
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,440
Speaker 1: across the United States flight uh from Carolina to l

1016
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,359
Speaker 1: A for this game, Joe Buck And unless he flies

1017
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 1: the other way, then it is transcontinental. Uh, just short

1018
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 1: fucking tram and we'll call the game. Rams open a

1019
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,920
Speaker 1: three point favorite, their favorite by three. The public is

1020
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: all over the Saints. They can't bet the Saints enough.

1021
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,280
Speaker 1: The numbers I have here is insane. I'm betting against

1022
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:18,720
Speaker 1: the public more than anything. I'm gonna take the Rams

1023
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,280
Speaker 1: favored by three. At home. These teams are relatively equal,

1024
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:24,920
Speaker 1: the Rams being the home team. That's you know, they

1025
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: think the games. Even the Saints have a short week.

1026
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: Monday night thriller at the super Dome. People are overreacting

1027
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: to the Rams offensive struggles against Carolina and they still

1028
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 1: won the game. They they will be able to score

1029
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: against the Saints defense. You saw Deshaun Watson move up

1030
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,640
Speaker 1: and down the field against that New Orleans defense. Jared Golf, Uh,

1031
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,720
Speaker 1: he's he's got to play better, and there's no question

1032
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,919
Speaker 1: about it, and I believe he will play better this week.

1033
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: Golf has a career four and seven record when throwing

1034
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,799
Speaker 1: under two hundred yards, but when he gets over two

1035
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: hundred yards, he's twenty one and seven. Now, a lot

1036
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,799
Speaker 1: of those came early in his career, back in the

1037
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:01,879
Speaker 1: Jeff Fisher uh era, and trying to have amnesia and

1038
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: those of us that like the Rams and forget about

1039
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 1: all that, Uh, But yeah, I like the Rams as

1040
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: a boomerang team. That's a gambling term. I don't know

1041
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,759
Speaker 1: if you know, but that that's a gambling term here.

1042
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 1: But I expect they will rebound here and make a

1043
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: recovery offensively and at home. You gotta like him. And

1044
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,799
Speaker 1: then the other thing about New Orleans, Uh, they're not

1045
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,480
Speaker 1: the same team historically and in this era of of

1046
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,600
Speaker 1: Saints football away from the Bayou. I understand they had

1047
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,880
Speaker 1: a good record last year on the road, but they

1048
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 1: they also lost to the Cowboys. They played, uh, played

1049
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 1: some shaky games there on the road and and nearly

1050
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,240
Speaker 1: not nearly as intimidating as they are in the great

1051
00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:44,480
Speaker 1: indoors as they are in the great outdoors. So we

1052
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,439
Speaker 1: also don't know if Drew Brees will play a complete game.

1053
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 1: This is something that you're not supposed to talk about

1054
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,759
Speaker 1: because he's an a legend and you can't. You know,

1055
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,799
Speaker 1: he's been canonized, and I get it, he's a Hall

1056
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: of Famer and all that stuff, but this is something

1057
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,520
Speaker 1: that needs to be rectified. Last week, he was not

1058
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,880
Speaker 1: only a quarterback in the first half. He sucked. He

1059
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,400
Speaker 1: was a no show. He was like David Gascon for

1060
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,919
Speaker 1: a podcast. He showed up late. Okay, uh he did,

1061
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 1: And so he's that gonna become the new normal. Are

1062
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: the Saints only gonna get a good quarter here and

1063
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: then a bad quarter, a good half and then a

1064
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 1: bad half. If that's the case, it's gonna be a struggle.

1065
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of speed bumps here for

1066
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:25,919
Speaker 1: New Orleans offensively. So I believe that Breeze will play

1067
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: more like that. He's not gonna play great the entire game.

1068
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 1: We'll have some some bad periods here. I'm gonna take

1069
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:34,399
Speaker 1: the rams and the Saints go marching. Even the lost

1070
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: column twenty two. Right, baby, you got a Rammitt Rammitt, Rammitt,

1071
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 1: Rammitt Ramort Rammitt Rammitt ram Penny's going with the Rams.

1072
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 1: Good job by the penny, al right, Next up Chicago,

1073
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: oh and one at the Denver Gascons. Oh in one.

1074
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 1: Uh and that is the matchup here. The Bears opened

1075
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:55,960
Speaker 1: a pick him, the game open to pick him. The

1076
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 1: Bears are now at two and a half point favorite.

1077
00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:01,680
Speaker 1: It is on Fox with Dick Stockton and Mark Slayer

1078
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: with you know what that means, right, you know what

1079
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: that means, Gas, It could be the game of the week.

1080
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:12,200
Speaker 1: Now it means it means they don't think it'll be

1081
00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:13,919
Speaker 1: that good a game that might be a good game.

1082
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: I love Dick Stockton, but they don't send him to

1083
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 1: the to the great He's polishing turds, as we say

1084
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 1: every week. But I'm gonna pick the Bears here in

1085
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 1: this game as a bounce back team. Uh. And here's why.

1086
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: The main thing I'm betting against the Broncos. Their defense

1087
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 1: was taken to the claims. We talked about that earlier

1088
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,920
Speaker 1: when we handicapped the radio game. But you talk about humiliation,

1089
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 1: it is ridiculous. It's preposterous. It's ludicrous that Vic Fangio,

1090
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,919
Speaker 1: who's a defensive pedigree guy, is the head coach there.

1091
00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:49,959
Speaker 1: And they went into Oakland and that defense with Von

1092
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,480
Speaker 1: Miller and brad Lee chubbing those guys, they did not

1093
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:56,520
Speaker 1: have a single quarterback hit or sack. They were shut out.

1094
00:57:56,840 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 1: Derek Carr completed eighty four point six percent of his passes.

1095
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 1: That's that's obscene. That that is in subordination. That's a

1096
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 1: dereliction of duties by the Broncos defense. They said, well,

1097
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna play better at home and all that stuff.

1098
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,160
Speaker 1: I understand that counter argument, but I gotta see it.

1099
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 1: I gotta see the Bears are a better opponent here,

1100
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: and even a much maligned quarterback in Mitchell Trobiski can

1101
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: light you up if you're not hitting the quarterback and

1102
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 1: not sacking the quarterback. Now, the second thing here, uh,

1103
00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 1: this is a good spot. As we talked about for

1104
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,320
Speaker 1: the bounce back, bounce back. Now for the Bears, the

1105
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 1: quarterback matchup here is relatively even. Strobinsky sucks, Joe Flacco sucks.

1106
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: The ace card here is the Chicago defense defense travels well.

1107
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,720
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah, blah uh. So if if you're

1108
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 1: analyzing this, I I think that the Bears will I

1109
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 1: know they're gonna bring the defense. I think you'll get

1110
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 1: enough offense to get this this victor I expected to

1111
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:55,600
Speaker 1: be close. I don't think that they're gonna blow out

1112
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos here, but they will be able to

1113
00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 1: keep the Broncos off in knots. Expect the low scoring,

1114
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 1: slobber knocker type of football game. Chicago Bears nineteen, Broncos ten.

1115
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:13,360
Speaker 1: You're fun one in doubt and go at the home team.

1116
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: Penny's taking the Broncos shocking that the guy flipping the

1117
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:19,560
Speaker 1: penny who loves the Denver Broncos don't know what you're

1118
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:23,240
Speaker 1: talking about, Coop is not in the building us. From

1119
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:28,400
Speaker 1: what I've heard, you are a Bronco guinea up. Alright,

1120
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:31,440
Speaker 1: Moving on Sunday Night football Philadelphia one and all at

1121
00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 1: Atlanta and one. I'm looking forward to watching this game.

1122
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 1: It's on NBC. Al Michaels and Chris collins Worth of

1123
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 1: a feeling we'll have a Mallard monologue about this game

1124
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 1: on our Sunday in the Monday radio show. But the

1125
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,640
Speaker 1: Eagles the game open to pick them Eagles favorite by

1126
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 1: one and a half on the road. Not good to

1127
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 1: bet on road favorites, but I'm doing anyway here. Uh

1128
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 1: take the better team. I'll take the Philadelphia to get

1129
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: off that two and oh start in Atlanta. Be o

1130
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 1: and two. Uh. The first thought I have on this

1131
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: game the Eagles. We mentioned it earlier. They were on

1132
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,640
Speaker 1: the highway to hell against Washington last week, and then

1133
01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:03,240
Speaker 1: they flipped the switch. They saved their their bacon. They're

1134
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,640
Speaker 1: behind the whole thing. Big plays by Deshaun Watson a

1135
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 1: couple of other guys, and that saved the Eagles from

1136
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 1: the shame of of losing ian. They steered them away

1137
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:18,480
Speaker 1: from going down that direction. But they have to acknowledge

1138
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: that they did not play well in that game. I

1139
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 1: expect a more complete effort here, even in a hostile

1140
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 1: environment in Atlanta. Carson Wentz's good when he plays. His

1141
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 1: problem has been he's always seemingly to get seemingly getting hurt.

1142
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 1: But the Eagles did not commit a turnover in week one,

1143
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 1: and now they are ten and one under Doug Peterson.

1144
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 1: When they play a clean game, and why is that important?

1145
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 1: Meaning they don't have a turnover, I'll tell you why

1146
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,400
Speaker 1: it's important. It's obviously important because you have more chance

1147
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 1: to win, but the NFL. That's the fourth best record

1148
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL since seen. But more importantly, the Falcons

1149
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:55,840
Speaker 1: have forced only fifty seven turnovers since seen. They are

1150
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: tied for the third fewest in leak. So you have

1151
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:58,920
Speaker 1: a team that when they don't turn the ball over,

1152
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 1: they have a ten and one record against the team

1153
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:05,439
Speaker 1: that often fails to cause a turnover. Do you see

1154
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 1: the chink in the armor here? I think you. I

1155
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 1: think you do? Yes? All right? Do you have to

1156
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,760
Speaker 1: spell it out for you now? Secondly, no, I'm not

1157
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna talk about my man Philly Rob, who's such a

1158
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 1: Phillies sickophan. He's traveling to this game. Did you know that?

1159
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: You didn't know that my man Philly Rob, who gives

1160
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: us these big food parties with cheese steaks and all

1161
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 1: these delicious foods, Philly Rob is going to be at

1162
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 1: the at the game. There's anyway the Falcons played like

1163
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 1: they were uninterested. They went through the motions, all that

1164
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 1: stuff against the Vikings. We talked about that earlier. Who

1165
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 1: won't rehash too much of that. I do expect Atlanta

1166
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,520
Speaker 1: to play better, uh this week if they have any

1167
01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 1: kind of pride and they don't know a bunch of

1168
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 1: quitters like the Miami Dolphins are tired of playing second fiddle.

1169
01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 1: But that said, the Eagles are just more talented. And

1170
01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 1: then this is a special Philadelphia Eagles team. I hate

1171
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 1: saying that because, uh boy, but I'm gonna take the

1172
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 1: Eagles high scoring game. Al Michaels will like it. Uh

1173
01:01:56,600 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 1: And in the end, Philadelphia Eagles thirty eight, Falcon thirty

1174
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: one Penny likes, does well? Go with the Eagles fly

1175
01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 1: Penny suddenly picking my side because you're not an Eagles

1176
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:13,120
Speaker 1: fan or a Falcons fan. Interesting, a little woozy over there,

1177
01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:15,360
Speaker 1: guests and everything good with you. Yes, everything's good, man.

1178
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 1: I just uh, it's it's hard work working with you.

1179
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 1: I gotta do a lot of the handiwork. I gotta

1180
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:23,920
Speaker 1: do a lot of production, the elements, the writing, the prep,

1181
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 1: the writing. Well, yeah, I gotta write up all of

1182
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 1: the matchups for you with the broadcasters names and what

1183
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 1: station it's on. And uh yeah, I mean, I got

1184
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 1: a musical instrument here, I'm gonna I'm gonna go get

1185
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,720
Speaker 1: I got the world's smallest I'm gonna play that for you. Okay,

1186
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 1: can I do that? And would you like me to

Speaker 1: of the show. He comes in. Last time he came in,

1195
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,400
Speaker 1: it was for the first game last week, it was

1196
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 1: the Green Bay game with Chicago. He came in. The

1197
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 1: appetizer was a Philly pretzel. He had pretzels from Wawas

1198

01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: the you know, he brought the pretzels with him, had

1201
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 1: him delivered by a friend of his, Elizabeck in Philly.

1202
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,480
Speaker 1: And so he had the delicious Philly pretzel, which is

1203
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 1: just great. Man. I would I would have been I

1204
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 1: would have been happy just with that alone. And then

1205
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 1: that was the appetizer. Then he brought his Philly cheese

1206
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:32,480
Speaker 1: steaks and he had a bag of potato chips as

1207
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 1: the side on that. Uh, just just absolutely great. And

1208
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:38,560
Speaker 1: then for dessert, he brought in, uh these tasty cake

1209
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 1: pies because Roberto bitched about the tasty cakes and what.

1210
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 1: I don't mind. I liked the tasty cakes, but he

1211
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 1: brought in the tasty cake pie. I had the lemon.

1212
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,960
Speaker 1: I went with the lemon, and he also brought pineapple

1213
01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:50,919
Speaker 1: juice because I made a joke on the air. Wasn't

1214
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 1: even a joke, it was it was Devin Hester. Devin

1215
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:57,120
Speaker 1: Hester said that pineapple juice made him faster, so Philly

1216
01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:59,480
Speaker 1: Rob wanted us to be faster. So you know, did

1217
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,680
Speaker 1: you even need to pretzel with any kind of hot

1218
01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 1: mustard sauce? Uh? Yeah I did. He did bring some

1219
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 1: mustard in. It was good. I mean I I didn't

1220
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 1: like mustard when I was a kid, but now as

1221
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,680
Speaker 1: an adult, I love the mustard. Man, I we don't have.

1222
01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 1: That's one thing. L A is lacking good pretzels. I mean,

1223
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 1: we got we should open a Philly style pretzel shop.

1224
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: We'll make a killing in Los Angeles, right, Yeah, but

1225
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 1: you have him coming out here with that, that's first

1226
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 1: class service man. You can't. You can't even pray for

1227
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 1: something like that. That's good. That was. That was wonderful

1228
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 1: by Philly roups. I hope he enjoys the game on Sunday. Right,

1229
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:33,800
Speaker 1: we got one more game, alright, one more game Monday

1230
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:38,840
Speaker 1: night football Cleveland, Oh and one the Jets also on one.

1231
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:43,520
Speaker 1: It's on ESPN, Joe test It Tour and Booger Booger

1232
01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 1: McFarland old the sports radio guy, old NFL player on

1233
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: the call the Browns. This is crazy to check this

1234
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: line out. Brown's opened a two and a half point favorite.

1235
01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 1: You're like, okay, fine, the Browns are favorite by two

1236
01:04:57,760 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 1: and a half on the road. It's a lodd considering

1237
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:02,040
Speaker 1: how they played in all that, but but fine, so

1238
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 1: be it right, Brown's uh favorite? Two? Well, then we

1239
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,640
Speaker 1: had a quarterback change for the Jets, and the Browns

1240
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:13,840
Speaker 1: skyrocketed all the way up, up, up, up, up, and

1241
01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 1: away to a six and a half point favorite. The

1242
01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:21,040
Speaker 1: spread I have here, let me let me check to

1243
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:24,840
Speaker 1: see if I get the most updated point spread in

1244
01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:27,080
Speaker 1: this particular match, but I believe the line is still

1245
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:32,920
Speaker 1: six and a half. Let's see what we have here, ladda, Uh,

1246
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,760
Speaker 1: the Monday night game. Yeah, still six and a half.

1247
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:39,080
Speaker 1: So the public's all over the Cleveland Browns. I was

1248
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,800
Speaker 1: gonna take the Browns originally, but I this line is

1249
01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 1: too inflated. I'm gonna take the Jets, even with the

1250
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 1: backup quarterback now. Now, Cleveland played like a bunch of

1251
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 1: just I can't say. I guess I could say the

1252
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 1: word I'll clean it up, Mama, Luke's that's my favorite.

1253
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 1: Come on. They played like a bunch of a holes. Alright,

1254
01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:59,840
Speaker 1: they play assholes, schmucks. Played like shit al right, played

1255
01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,919
Speaker 1: like dogship in the opener against the Titans late and again,

1256
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,040
Speaker 1: actually the score was a little misleading. We mentioned the

1257
01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:06,640
Speaker 1: game was closed. It was like a two point game

1258
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 1: midway through the third quarter, and then Baker Mayfield just

1259
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 1: decided that he wanted to ship all over the field

1260
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:16,120
Speaker 1: there in Cleveland. And because they are the Browns anyway,

1261
01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:19,320
Speaker 1: was that it was a carnival of stupidity. Eighteen penalties

1262
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 1: for a two yards plus three interceptions by Baker Mayfield,

1263
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:29,400
Speaker 1: who played like vomit. I mean, the Browns just got

1264
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 1: beat by thirty at home in a game where they

1265
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 1: were five and a half point favorites. That's hard to do,

1266
01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 1: all right, that's that's like dolphin like to do that.

1267
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 1: Now on the flip side, well, I I did pick

1268
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 1: the Bills to beat the Jets. I am baffled that

1269
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,920
Speaker 1: they actually did Buffalo scoring the final seven team. We

1270
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,960
Speaker 1: talked about that earlier. Uh And Sam Donald, who's not

1271
01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:52,120
Speaker 1: playing in this game. Sam Donald had a passer rating

1272
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:56,080
Speaker 1: of sixty five point nine in the fourth quarter collapse,

1273
01:06:56,120 --> 01:07:01,439
Speaker 1: and now he's out with with mono. He's been put

1274
01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:05,680
Speaker 1: into quarantine. Now, let me ask you a question, guess,

1275
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 1: and you would know this because you've spent a lot

1276
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,600
Speaker 1: of time in the doctor's office. But when I when

1277
01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:14,640
Speaker 1: I was in school, okay, back in the day, and

1278
01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 1: they were teaching me about the birds and the bees

1279
01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:18,240
Speaker 1: and a a little bit about that stuff. And they have

1280
01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,640
Speaker 1: different illnesses that you could pick up. I believe, and

1281
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:24,320
Speaker 1: I maybe I'm making this up, but I swear in

1282
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,000
Speaker 1: one of those like junior high health classes, they talked

1283
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:29,920
Speaker 1: about uh motto is being They called it like the

1284
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: kissing disease. They were trying to warn you not to,

1285
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:33,920
Speaker 1: you know, make out with too many people because you

1286
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 1: could get mono. Yeah, all right, you never kiss you

1287
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,479
Speaker 1: never had that problem, right, Well, no, no one wanted

1288
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:45,960
Speaker 1: to kiss me, so I didn't have to worry about that,

1289
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 1: And that's one thing I did not have to worry

1290
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 1: about his getting motto. Uh. I'd like to thank the

1291
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,160
Speaker 1: women back in high school because they made sure that

1292
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:54,760
Speaker 1: I did not get anywhere near any of that stuff. Okay,

1293
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:57,600
Speaker 1: but we don't hear about this in college football. So

1294
01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,200
Speaker 1: it happens in the National Football League. But was the

1295
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:01,720
Speaker 1: last time we've ever heard about this in the n

1296
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:04,960
Speaker 1: c double A ranks? Well, who's the last NFL player

1297
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 1: that had motto? I don't remember. I don't recall this.

1298
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 1: Has this happened. I don't recall a starting quarterback missing

1299
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:17,080
Speaker 1: multiple games because of monto. No, I remember that happening

1300
01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:19,640
Speaker 1: in the National Hockey League. But that's a sport you

1301
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 1: don't cover and you don't really care about. So it's

1302
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,360
Speaker 1: when the Kings are good. I pay attention to them.

1303
01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:28,599
Speaker 1: When I was doing stuff in Boston. The boy, it's

1304
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,680
Speaker 1: about it. I'm gonna go out to some Kings game. Go, oh,

1305
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 1: we can hang out of the Kings game. If you

1306
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 1: want to do that, you actually will go to a game.

1307
01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'll be sitting in the press box. But

1308
01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 1: I'll go out there. Yeah, we can do that. So

1309
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:41,200
Speaker 1: I roll man. You know, the Kings are good people.

1310
01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:42,839
Speaker 1: They take care of me over there. The Kings, they're

1311
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:45,879
Speaker 1: good guys. They roll out the red carpet, first class operational,

1312
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Kings. All right. Anyway, So as yeapping

1313
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,640
Speaker 1: about Sam Donald, he was he's that with model I

1314
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:54,320
Speaker 1: mentioned he was terrible in the fourth quarter. So Paxton

1315
01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:58,599
Speaker 1: Lynch drops in as the starter, your old quarterback. You're

1316
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos guest, Trevor Simeon. What's that? Trevor Simeon. Oh,

1317
01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:06,600
Speaker 1: I have to say, Paxton Lynch, awesome, bad job on me.

1318
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:11,400
Speaker 1: I had my Bronco backup quarterbacks mixed up. It's like

1319
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,360
Speaker 1: it's like in your holster, you're just waiting and take

1320
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:16,200
Speaker 1: a shot at the Denver Broncos. Well they're all, they're all.

1321
01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 1: But actually Trevor Simeon is a better option, though, But

1322
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 1: how did I have Paxton Lynch? Wow? What the hell

1323
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:24,040
Speaker 1: is going on? We better end this soon? Uh, But yeah,

1324
01:09:24,040 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 1: Trevor Simeon dropping in is the start now. I don't

1325
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,120
Speaker 1: believe much that there's much difference between Schevor Simeon. There

1326
01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:32,280
Speaker 1: is a big difference between Paxson Lynch and Sam Donald,

1327
01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,240
Speaker 1: but not Trevor Simeon, certainly not four points. Uh. They

1328
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 1: will have to ring the bell. Levon bell he had

1329
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:39,640
Speaker 1: an m R. I looks like he's good to go

1330
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,599
Speaker 1: here with that shoulder injury. Uh. And really the key

1331
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,719
Speaker 1: here for the Jets is you gonna run the ball efficiently,

1332
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:47,559
Speaker 1: take time off the clock obviously shortened the game, and

1333
01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:49,800
Speaker 1: continue to play. Hope the Browns continue to play with

1334
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:54,360
Speaker 1: his undisciplined style of football. I expect a much crisper

1335
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 1: performance from Cleveland this week, but there's no way that

1336
01:09:57,280 --> 01:09:59,760
Speaker 1: I am ready to lay the six and a half

1337
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:03,559
Speaker 1: point spread with Cleveland, even with Trevor Simeon on the

1338
01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 1: other side. So I'm gonna take the Cleveland Browns to win,

1339
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 1: but the Jets to cover the spread, but only by

1340
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:15,160
Speaker 1: a half point. Brown's twenty six, Jets twenty win it

1341
01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 1: with the hook. The penny is also going with the Jets,

1342
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 1: all right, and that is I think there's no more

1343
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: games to us for us to handicap Guescon. So that's it.

1344
