Gentlemen, let's kick things off here with 51 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: Thursday night football in a prime matchup, so to speak. 52 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: To coin a phrase, Jeff Bezos probably created this one 53 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: in a lab or in his giant bald head. And 54 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: I can say that because I've got a giant bald head. 55 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs minus three and a half. They are 56 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: the favorites in this one. Probably not surprising after Patrick 57 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: Mahomes's great performance. Matt, what are your thoughts about this 58 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: early line here with Kansas City being the favorites. 59 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I hate that it's at three and a 60 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: half instead of three. The look ahead was three. That's 61 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: where I grabbed it because I just sort of anticipated 62 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 2: that the Chiefs were going to crush given the matchup 63 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: they had last week, and that's certainly what happened. They 64 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: looked great. You know, Patrick Mahomes was thirty at thirty nine, 65 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: five touchdowns, zero interceptions, three hundred and sixty yards passing. 66 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: It looked effortless for the Chiefs, scoring forty four points, 67 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 2: and it feels like they could have scored more. You know, 68 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 2: they had the entire offseason to move on from Tyreek Killen. 69 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: You build their offense, and they definitely did that. The 70 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: Chargers last week without number one cornerback j C. Jackson. 71 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 2: It's uncertain if he's going to return for Week two, 72 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 2: so that already gives them a little bit of a disadvantage. 73 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 2: I had this closer to five and a half or six, 74 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: so I think there's still value betting it at three 75 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: and a half, and I don't know, I would anticipate 76 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 2: that if it moves a direction, it's not going down 77 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: to three if it's going to move closer to six. 78 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: So I still think if you're looking to bet, you 79 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: would probably bet this now. But I'm just anchoring to 80 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: the three and thinking like, yeah, if you haven't bet 81 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: it now, maybe you don't bet it. But if you 82 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: want action on this game, and this feels like the 83 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: kind of game you do want action on. Probably bet 84 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: it now and I'm going Chiefs. 85 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: Well, you can get the three in some spots bet 86 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: MGM and DraftKings. As of us recording this had it 87 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: at three. Some other sites had it at three and 88 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: a half pat with a Keenan Allen injury to potentially lingering. 89 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: Does this feel like maybe just maybe Freeman's on the 90 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: right here with maybe there should be a bigger number 91 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: to start? 92 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 3: Oh? I think so. 93 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 4: I initially predicted it as a five point game, and 94 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 4: I think there's value to betting the Chiefs. I mean, 95 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 4: Andy Reid has the deed to the AFC West. He 96 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 4: keeps it in the glove compartment of his Ford Bronco, 97 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 4: and I don't really know that he drives a Ford Bronco, 98 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 4: but it just seems like something that Andy Reid would drive. 99 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 3: He owns this division. 100 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 4: They're the class of the division, and I think there's 101 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 4: a little bit of value here because people want the 102 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 4: Chargers to be that upstart darling in this division to 103 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 4: maybe knock off the Chiefs and become the new Kings 104 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 4: of the division. But I don't know if they're there 105 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 4: yet I mean, they do have an attractive roster, They 106 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 4: do have some star power on both sides of the ball. 107 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: I mean that the Khalil mack Bosa combo on the 108 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 4: edge is just fearsome. But I still think you run 109 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 4: up against the Andy Reid play calling, and that's such 110 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 4: a big edge for the Chiefs here, So I think 111 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 4: there's value. 112 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 3: Boy, they're right on it. 113 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 4: With the total though, fifty four and a half, and 114 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 4: there were fifty four points scored in both Chiefs Chargers 115 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 4: games last year. 116 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, And to follow up on what Fitz said there 117 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: about Andy Reid owning the division thirty three and twenty 118 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: against the spread with the Chiefs against the AFC West, 119 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: So Andy Reid definitely has owned the division outright and 120 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: against the spread. And then Andy Reid, there's something about 121 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 2: this guy, like, you know, everyone knows Andy Reid off 122 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 2: of a bye, but I don't think it's just Andy 123 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: Reid off of a buye. It's like Andy Reid off 124 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 2: of the offseason, Like the first month of the season, 125 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: the Chiefs absolutely crushed. They're twenty four and thirteen against 126 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: the spread in weeks one through four when his time 127 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: with the Chiefs, and then Patrick Mahomes in primetime thirteen 128 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 2: eight and one against the spread, and that's including the postseason. Yeah, 129 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 2: pretty good stats there. 130 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: Let's go to two teams that are coming off victories 131 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: in Week one, the Baltimore Ravens four point favorites over 132 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: Miami traveling to Baltimore. Fans will start with you with 133 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: this one. I know certainly the JK. Dobbins out yesterday 134 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: was something that was unfortunate for the the Baltimore Ravens offense, 135 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: but Miami looking pretty solid in their debut against the Patriots. 136 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: How do you feel about this line here as you're 137 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: looking at it to. 138 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 4: Begin Yeah, I think there's maybe just a little bit 139 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 4: of value here with the Ravens. Initially pegged this one 140 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: as Ravens by five, and like the Ravens just have 141 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: their act together early in the season most years. Last 142 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 4: year was a little strange because they had the Marcus 143 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 4: Peters injury and the Dobbins and Gus Edwards injuries so early, 144 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 4: right before the start of the season. I feel like 145 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 4: that kind of knocked the organization off its moorings last year. 146 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 4: But generally they come out hot and we saw that again. 147 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 4: They handled the Jets very easily in Week one. I 148 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 4: think they're going to be the Dolphins pretty easily too. 149 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 4: And the Dolphins are, you know, probably flying high after 150 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 4: that win over the division rival Patriots at home. Now 151 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 4: they have to go on the road in a tough environment. 152 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 4: So I'm inclined to give the points here, all. 153 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: Right, Matt, Same thing to you with Baltimore. Are the 154 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins maybe enjoying a little bit too much of 155 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: this first victory? And is this going to be a 156 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: wake up call in Baltimore? 157 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I'm not taking a position on this game. 158 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: I have it slightly towards the Ravens, but I think 159 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 2: for the number that we're seeing in the market is 160 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 2: about right. One thing I should say is I think 161 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: it was surprising that Marcus Peters did not play yesterday, 162 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: you know, so we need to monitor him. Kyle Fuller 163 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 2: another cornerback for the Ravens, he exited the game with 164 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 2: a knee injury. Left tacker tackled Ronnie Stanley didn't play, 165 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: and then the guy who was filling in for him, 166 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 2: they're swing tackle Juwan James. He left the game with 167 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 2: the torn achilles. He's out for the year and so 168 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 2: these are injuries that we need to monitor, and I 169 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: don't know if they're actually baked into the line yet. 170 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 2: So even though I think right now there's a little 171 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: bit of value on the Ravens or if I had 172 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 2: to bet on it, i'd lean towards the Ravens, I 173 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 2: could actually see the line moving towards the Dolphins because 174 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: of these injury issues. 175 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco had seven hundred and forty three pass attempts 176 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: in the game, I believe. On Sunday, I think that's 177 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: a correct stat I believe that's from NFL dot Com. 178 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: The New York Jets still lost. They are six and 179 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: a half point dogs in this contest on the road 180 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: against Cleveland. That feels right. But do we think that 181 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,559 Speaker 1: that is a little too much credit for this Browns team? 182 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: Your thoughts, Matthew Freeman. 183 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I have a little bit of value on the 184 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: Jets here in terms of how I'm making this line, 185 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 2: but like, I'm not betting it at all because they're 186 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: just a team I don't want to be invested in, 187 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Like I think, organizationally, there are a lot of things 188 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 2: wrong the offense under Joe Flacco. I know they had 189 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: some yards, but it was all sort of trash production, Like. 190 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: After seven hundred pass attempts, I want to say, you're 191 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: gonna get some yards? Yeah, like averages. 192 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm not factoring that into things really at all. 193 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: So I show slight value on the Jets, but like 194 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: not enough to make me bet on it. 195 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: How about you Pat, same things life value, but not 196 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: enough to move the needle exactly it. 197 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 4: I might be tempted to play this one, Like I 198 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 4: feel like this line should be smaller, like. 199 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 3: Jacoby Brissett and Joe Flacco. 200 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: I know Joe Flacco doesn't get any respect, but like 201 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 4: he's going up against Jacoby Brissett. Here is it that 202 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 4: people the the in the setting of the lines, Like 203 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 4: there's that much more respect for Kevin Stefanski than for 204 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 4: Sala Like I don't really understand this line. It seems 205 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 4: like it should be more like four and a half 206 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 4: or five. So yeah, I'm inclined to maybe put a 207 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 4: small wager down on the Jets this week, but I 208 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 4: am not going heavily. Yeah, I don't want to be 209 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 4: heavily in on this game. Uh, you know, I'll do 210 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 4: more of a toe in it than Friedman, but not much. 211 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 2: You know, I will say, to follow up on Fitz's point, 212 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 2: Kevin Stefanski is one and eleven against the spread versus division, 213 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 2: and I'm sorry it's not division. No wrong, sat here 214 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: looking at seven. 215 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: Because I'm for to make up stats on the sho 216 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: I Lackoll had seven hundred and forty two pass steps. 217 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: That is a fact. 218 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: I got it. I got it. That was I'm looking at. 219 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: I have so many things in my spreadsheet. Yes, I've 220 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 2: got the right one now. Seven and fourteen. Stefanski is 221 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 2: seven and fourteen against the spread as a favorite in 222 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 2: the regular season. So like, this is a guy that 223 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 2: you generally do want to bet against when he is 224 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: laying points. 225 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: How dare you try to steal my bit of making 226 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: up stats? How dare you? All right, let's go to 227 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: Washington at Detroit. Detroit showed grit. I think we all 228 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: could agree on that. Of course, they came up short 229 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: because they're the Lions. That's typically what happens. But we 230 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: have the Washington commanders traveling to Detroit. They're coming off 231 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: a win in Detroit's coming off a loss. Detroit is 232 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: one and a half point favorites in this one at home. Obviously, 233 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: they're not giving Detroit a lot of respect. Matt, Do 234 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: you think that that's wrong? 235 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? I do. And I'm a little bit angry at 236 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 2: myself for not betting this beforehand, because I do my 237 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 2: projections beforehand on Saturday night, and you know, kind of 238 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 2: look at the look ahead market to see where there's value, 239 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: and Washington was favored by one point on the look 240 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: ahead line, and I had this projected as Detroit it 241 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: should be favored, you know, like one and a half 242 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: or one point twenty five, and so I was thinking, 243 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: you know, but it's just across the one or just 244 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: across zero, like it doesn't matter all that much, even 245 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 2: though you'd be getting a couple points of value. Of course, 246 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 2: I didn't bet it, and then it flipped after and 247 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 2: so yeah, I mean, I think this line is about 248 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: where it should be. I think Detroit is a really 249 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 2: good team, but you know, I don't think there's any 250 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: value here. 251 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: All right, fits when you look at this one, I mean, 252 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: what you saw out of that Detroit offense I think 253 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: was incredibly encouraging. I think the commander has played well, 254 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: but it is the Jaguars after all. Maybe we're giving 255 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: the commanders too much credit here with this. 256 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: Line, maybe, but like I'm not ready to do annoying 257 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 4: the Lions as like the upstart team in the NFL 258 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 4: just yet, so to me, it seems like a pretty 259 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: fair line. I'm more interested by the total of forty 260 00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 4: six and a half, which seems like it's a little 261 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 4: in for a Commander's Lions game. Like if you told 262 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 4: me before week one that you were going to get 263 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 4: a forty six and a half point total on Commanders 264 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 4: Lions in Week two, I would have like slammed the 265 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 4: under right there. So you know, I'm still leaning that way. 266 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 4: I know the Lions had a very nice and I 267 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 4: think they've done that two week ones in a row 268 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 4: where they got down big and then like fought back 269 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 4: furiously and piled up yardage and points like after they 270 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 4: were down more multiple scores. So yeah, like as well 271 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 4: as their offense ran in week one, I don't know 272 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 4: that that's going to be a you know, default setting 273 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 4: every week for. 274 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: Them, all right, default setting for the Colts. They neither 275 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: won nor lost. They had a tie gross against the 276 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars on the road. They are four point favorites 277 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: in this one. The numbers forty five and a half. Pat, 278 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: when you're looking at this, does anything tempt you to 279 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: get in on early? Boy? 280 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 4: You know, if the Colts are gonna look for motivation 281 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 4: in this one, they had that brutal twenty six to 282 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 4: eleven loss to the Jaguars in the final week of 283 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 4: the regular season last year, So you know, I have 284 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 4: Jacksonville as like a three point underdog in this one. 285 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 4: So maybe there's a little value on the Jaguars, But 286 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 4: I mean, the Colts have got to be maybe they're 287 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 4: just not good enough to, you know, take advantage of 288 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 4: a revenge game narrative. We certainly didn't expect them to 289 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 4: lay this sort of egg they did in week one. 290 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 4: So you know, you could either go with the value 291 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 4: with Jacksonville or the revenge game narrative with indiam app 292 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 4: to just. 293 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 3: Stay away, all right? 294 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 1: Do the Colts exercise the demons in a big way 295 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: potentially this weekend, Matt with this game, I. 296 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: Mean, the look ahead was four and a half. The 297 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: early line that's been released is four. I could see 298 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: this moving towards three. I'm I'm on the I don't 299 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 2: know if I actually want to bet it, but I 300 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: have this at two and a half, which means I 301 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 2: probably should bet it if it's under the three, so 302 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: you know, I mean moving under the key number. If 303 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 2: I'm betting it's Jacksonville, it's not Indianapolis. 304 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: I hope by the end of the show you listen 305 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: to yourself one of these times, because it feels like 306 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: you've got a lot of confidence and then you just 307 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: you don't make the wager. Come on, you've done the wholework. 308 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: Everybody knows nobody works harder than you. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 309 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: came away with a victory and a kind of snooze 310 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: of a contest. They will go and travel to New Orleans, 311 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: which is historically not been their friend Friedman. The Tampa 312 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers just regardless, still favorites in this contest three 313 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: point favorites. The number is forty five and a half. 314 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: I feel like that number of forty five and a 315 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: half might potentially grow over this week. What are your 316 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on this? Obviously some injuries as well to take 317 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: in from the Tampa side, both on offense and defense, 318 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: but New Orleans has been really tough on the Bucks. 319 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: Are we gonna go live in the past or is 320 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: this a different season? Different Saints team. 321 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: It's I think it's a similar enough of a Saints team, 322 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: and I bet this beforehand Saints plus three at DraftKings 323 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: on the look aheadline under the idea that I wouldn't 324 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: think it would get any lower than that, and depending 325 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: on how the team's played, it could go higher than that. So, 326 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: you know, I think it's a good situation here for 327 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: the Saints. I have this, let me see where in 328 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: my spreadsheets. 329 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: Well, while you're looking too, what's fascinating is if you 330 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: do like the Saints, the money line is plus one 331 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: thirty six right now. That is a number to pay 332 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: attention to, considering the world has really stuck it to 333 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: Tampa quite a bit over last year or two. 334 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I have this at two. I think, you know, 335 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: so it's it's close to it now and so given 336 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: where we are now, probably not that much value. But 337 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: man four and one against the spread, the Saints against 338 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 2: Tom Brady with the Buccaneers, there's something about their defense, 339 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: like they have the defensive line that can pressure. They 340 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 2: have Marshaun Lattimore who can take away Mike Evans, which 341 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 2: means that they can use safety help to bracket the 342 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 2: other wide receiver, which means that the Buccaneers basically have 343 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 2: to be very good running the ball in order to 344 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: have a sustainable offense. It's just it's a tough matchup 345 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 2: for the for the Saints. So I'm probably on the 346 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: Buccaneers here. But at two and a half, which is 347 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 2: the number that I'm seeing right now, I'm looking at 348 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: the betting pros Odds page. Two and a half is 349 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: the consensus number. That's pretty close to where I think 350 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: it should be. If it moved to three, I would 351 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: bet it at two and a half. I want it 352 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 2: all right, Pat? 353 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: How about you? How do you see this Tampa Bay 354 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: New Orleans situation? Working out something to get in early 355 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: or wait and see where it goes. 356 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna get in early and take the 357 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 4: Saints at this price. Like I just there aren't many 358 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 4: things that bother the unflappable Tom Brady. But apparently Dennis 359 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: Allen is the one guy who can get it in 360 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 4: his head. 361 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: And Steve Spagnolo. 362 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 4: So yeah, Like, the Saints have a really tough defense, 363 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 4: one of the better defensive backfields in the NFL, and 364 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 4: they do have a pass rush, as Friedman was saying, 365 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 4: so and I think they have enough offense to be 366 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 4: able to move the ball a little bit on the 367 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 4: Patriots or a patriotsccanneers. 368 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm locked. 369 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: I think we're all in a collective three hours sleep. 370 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: That's okay. 371 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 4: But yeah, so we saw the Buccaneers struggle a little 372 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 4: bit in the red zone against the Cowboys, so maybe 373 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 4: their offense isn't firing on all cylinders anyway to open 374 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 4: the season. I do think there's value here, Like I 375 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 4: think this is going to finish as a one score game, 376 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 4: and you know, in a close game like that, getting 377 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 4: that many points, yeah, I'll take it. 378 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 3: And what could very well be a field goal game. 379 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: All right. The consensus right now for the New York 380 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: Football Giants as they are two and a half point 381 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: favorites at home against Carolina. Carolina had certainly gotten back 382 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: into that game yesterday. Fits when you're looking at this, 383 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: the renewed Saquon Barkley, is that renewed any faith in 384 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: the Giants here? With this line at home? 385 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 3: This is a total stay away from me, Joe. 386 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's one like I actually was, you know, 387 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 4: hit the spread and was within half a point of 388 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 4: the total when I tried to peg what this would be, 389 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 4: So I just don't see any value here on anything. 390 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: Does this one scare you as well? Friedman? 391 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 2: It doesn't scare me, but I don't see any value now. 392 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 2: It scares me that I think it will be pretty 393 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: ugly other than Saquon Barkley playing in this game, but 394 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 2: I don't see any value either way on. 395 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: This ugly enough to look at the under at forty 396 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: two and a. 397 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 2: Half maybe, but both of these defenses are kind of bad, 398 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 2: so you could see how the offenses are able to 399 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: go for. I mean, forty two is a low number, 400 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: so I'm just probably staying away from all of it. 401 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: That screams for outcome game to me, and I want 402 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: nothing to do with it personally. New England Patriots take 403 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: the l take an injury to Mac Jones of this one. 404 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: Right now, New England on the road. It's still one 405 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: point favorites against Pittsburgh in the early consensus, but that 406 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: could change obviously, especially as no health of other players 407 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: like Najie Harris. Look, this is early, Matt, and I 408 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: know there's a lot of injury stuff going on with 409 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: both of these teams. T J Watt having that injury 410 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: as well, Is this something also, there's just not enough 411 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: information to make a good decision at this point. 412 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: No, I'm betting it, and I'm on Pittsburgh here. I 413 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 2: like this this position. I know that the TJ. Watt 414 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 2: is out and that certainly that will impact the ability 415 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 2: for the Steelers to generate a pass rush, but given 416 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 2: that the Patriots are so reliant on the run game anyway, 417 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 2: I don't know if that will actually factor into the 418 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 2: game as much as it otherwise would. And Mike Tomlin, 419 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 2: I just I like him in this spot as an underdog. 420 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 2: He's forty six twenty three and two against the spread 421 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 2: at home, sixty three fifty five and three against the spread, 422 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 2: and then you put that together as a home dog 423 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 2: fourteen three and two against the spread, Like Tomlin should 424 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 2: almost never be an underdog at home. And the Patriots 425 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 2: they look so lost offensively, and like we have seen them, 426 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 2: I mean repeatedly, like for the past decade, start slower 427 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: in the season as they are figuring out what they 428 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 2: want to do offense, and I think we're going to 429 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 2: see them continue to struggle on offense. And it's not 430 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 2: as if the Steelers have a great offense, but they 431 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: have a defense that's good enough, and like they've just 432 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 2: got like a lot of grit, they got that dog 433 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 2: in them, you know, like they're just the kind of 434 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 2: team that seems to have the innate ability to drag 435 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: their opponent down to their level in games close. So 436 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 2: I think there's value here. I think the Steelers should 437 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 2: be favored. 438 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: Well, the money line is even here right now, So 439 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: pat do you just ignore the spread and just go 440 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: right for the Steelers to win out right? 441 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think I probably will. 442 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 4: I see the same thing Friedman sees on this one, Joe, Like, 443 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 4: I'm just kind of baffled by the line and how 444 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh is a big dog. I think it's an enormous 445 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 4: amount of respect for both Bill Belichick and for TJ. 446 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 3: Watt that the line is where it is. 447 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 4: But to me, yeah, the big factor is that the 448 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 4: Matt Patricia orchestrated offense of the Patriots is a problem, 449 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 4: which I was kind of thinking, and Friedman was trying 450 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 4: to give the Patriots as a pick in Week one 451 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 4: on the Betting Pro Sunday Morning live stream, so I 452 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 4: just kept my mouth shut. Maybe I shouldn't have, So, yeah, 453 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 4: I think that is a huge issue. And plus we've 454 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 4: got the mac Jones back injury. Yeah, so we don't 455 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 4: even know if we're going to see him this week. 456 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 4: That's going to be in flux. I wouldn't be surprised 457 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 4: if this line yo yoed maybe half a point either 458 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 4: way during the week. 459 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm betting the. 460 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 4: Steelers, just like a blind bet on you know, Mike 461 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 4: tomlin In. 462 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 3: As a home dog, like that's just too tempting. 463 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: To mess up. Yeah, as a Patriots fan, I was 464 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: betting on the Dolphins yesterday. So I don't know. I mean, 465 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what you guys are other people. So 466 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: you want to talk about respect about this? All this 467 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: respect is deserved or not? Eleven point favorites Los Angeles 468 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: Rams at home against the Falcons. Of the Falcons, they 469 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: showed a little bit of guts, but at the same time, 470 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: you would think, okay, roster wise, these two teams are 471 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: not the same universe, and maybe the Rams are going 472 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: to take it out on the Falcons. Is that just it? 473 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: But the problem is this eleven points is really a 474 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: large number of this early in the season. Pat what 475 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: do you think about this one? 476 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,959 Speaker 4: The first thing that jumped out to me, Joe is like, 477 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,959 Speaker 4: I think this shows an incredible level of respect for Buffalo, 478 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 4: that the Rams came off that trouncing and just completely 479 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 4: seemed to unaffect, not affect the way they are regarded 480 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 4: by Las Vegas. So yeah, like, I don't know, the 481 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 4: Falcons were scrappy. If I'm gonna put something down in 482 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 4: this game, it's probably going to be taking the points 483 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 4: with the Falcons. 484 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 3: But ultimately not a lot of value on this. 485 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: All right, Friedman, scrappy Falcons versus angry Rams? What do 486 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: you see in this one? 487 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: Okay, this one really intrigues me. And the off season 488 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 2: when sportsbooks released way too early look aheadlines, this was 489 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: thirteen and a half and then on Thursday, this line 490 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 2: would thirteen. Last night when this line was released, it 491 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: was eleven and a half, and now it's eleven. All right, 492 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 2: not that much has really changed, and how we should 493 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: evaluate these teams if this moves any lower, I'm taking 494 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 2: the Rams. Happily taking the Rams. I think they should 495 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 2: be around twelve and a half point favorites. I have 496 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 2: this at twelve point twenty five, and so not a 497 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 2: ton of value right now because we're in between key numbers, 498 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 2: but some value and if this gets to ten and 499 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 2: a half. Ten, there's no way this gets to ten 500 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 2: because everyone will just slam bet the Rams. But even 501 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 2: if this gets to ten and a half, I'm picking 502 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: the Rams. 503 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: Okay, San Francisco forty nine ers are going to lick 504 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: their wounds and go back and hopefully it gets some 505 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: better weather in San Francisco. They are eight and a 506 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: half point favorites over the Seahawks. Seahawks are going to 507 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: play tonight free. Even when you look ahead, this one 508 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: is just just as easy as you just forget everything 509 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: you saw from San francisc and Week one and just 510 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: copy and paste what you thought about them going into 511 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: the season. 512 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 2: A little bit, but not so much, because I still 513 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 2: think they within the circumstances, they could have looked better. 514 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 2: You know, like you're in a perfect run game environment. 515 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 2: That's the kind of environment in which the forty nine 516 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 2: ers should thrive, and they didn't do nearly as well 517 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 2: as I would have expected, And so I am a 518 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 2: little bit skeptical on this team, especially because they are 519 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,719 Speaker 2: dealing with significant injuries on offense and in the secondary. 520 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: I have this number at nine, it's at eight and 521 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: a half. I think it's about where it should be. 522 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: Same thing for you, Patt. It just feels about right. 523 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it does, and this is the line 524 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 4: I projected. 525 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 3: But I do sort of like the forty nine ers. 526 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 4: In a bounce back spot getting the Seahawks in a 527 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 4: short week. So it just seems like the spot sets 528 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 4: up really well for the forty nine ers. Maybe I'll 529 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 4: change my mind if Seattle looks, you know, fantastic tonight. 530 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 3: But I don't think any of us really expect that. 531 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, Friedman's like, come on, we're not into fairy tales 532 00:24:59,160 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 4: on this show. 533 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: Nobody knows what to expect when the Dallas line comes 534 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: back out. It was two and a half, Dallas was 535 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: favorite at home against the Bengals. H If you had 536 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: to guess right now with the Dak Prescott injury, what 537 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: does this line look like now with the Bengals traveling 538 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: to Dallas with Cooper Rush playing quarterback most likely. 539 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 4: Pat Bengals minus one, that's it might be a little more. 540 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: Friedman's got some feels. 541 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 3: What do you think? 542 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 2: No, I mean I think that this line has moved, 543 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 2: like taking Dak Prescott out and let's say Dak is 544 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 2: top twelve comfortably sure, you know, maybe you know number 545 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 2: eight something like that Cooper Cooper Rush is a below 546 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 2: average backup, like I think, one of the worst backups 547 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 2: in the league, or at least like a highly unproven backup. 548 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 2: So I think the swing from dak to Cooper Rush 549 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 2: is maybe like six points, like five to six points 550 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 2: for they like if they had I don't know, like 551 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 2: if they had Teddy Bridgewater as their backup, it wouldn't 552 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 2: be as big of a hit, that's fair, But like 553 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: this is I think a pretty significant hit here, and 554 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 2: so I think since he should be favored by like 555 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: five and a half. 556 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 1: Interesting, We'll keep an eye on that one obviously, keep 557 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: listening and watching all the betting pros content to see 558 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: how that one moves. How is this one gonna movie? 559 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: Friedman Denver ten and a half point favorites at home 560 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: against the Houston Texans, who also showed some fight in 561 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: them a little bit as well under Love's smith, Is 562 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: this number too big, too small or just right? 563 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I have this at nine point seventy five, 564 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: So I'm under the key number of ten, which means 565 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 2: that even though you know, like I'm less than a 566 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: point off there is probably some value here, value on 567 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: the Texans, but man, I don't I don't think I 568 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 2: want to wade into those waters. Yeah, like I want 569 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 2: to see I want to see what Denver looks like. 570 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: That said, you know what, I should probably bet this 571 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 2: Now I was gonna say, I'm gonna make it even struggles. 572 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: Maybe this line gets a little bit tighter, And does 573 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 1: that really change anything? Because it's Week one and everyone's 574 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: kind of shaking the dust off. Sometimes we take a 575 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: little too much out of week one, don't you think that? 576 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 3: We definitely do? 577 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 4: Joyah, And I think just in general, people are maybe 578 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 4: giving the Broncos a little too much credit. I think 579 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 4: they've instantly been anointed as like one of the top 580 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 4: Super Bowl contenders in the AFC, and I don't know 581 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 4: if they're there yet. Like Russ certainly improves their credibility, 582 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 4: but I don't think they're quite on the level of 583 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 4: the Chiefs, the Bills, maybe not even the Chargers. 584 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 3: We'll see about that, I guess. 585 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 4: But I'm with Friedman, like I had this one at 586 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 4: ten and considering it's ten and a half, like that 587 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 4: key number kind of makes me interested in putting a 588 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 4: little something on the text into here. 589 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's walk through. Let's walk through just a little 590 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 2: bit the scenarios of what happens tonight here because because 591 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: if the Seahawks, let's focus on the Broncos. If the 592 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 2: Broncos crush the Seahawks, I don't know if that changes 593 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 2: this number at all, but if they underperform, you could 594 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 2: move from like the ten and a half ten that 595 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 2: you see in the market to like nine and a 596 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 2: half ten, in which, like, if that move happens, I 597 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: think they're significant value. So probably best just to take 598 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: this now. If you like the Texans. 599 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: Fair enough, that's a good point right there. Let's move 600 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: on to the next one here. The Arizona Cardinals woke up, 601 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: but it was too late. The game was already over 602 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: on Week one. And then the Las Vegas Raiders tried 603 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: to compete but kept giving the ball to the other team. 604 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: That's never a good recipe for a win. So both 605 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: of these teams start off win lists three and a 606 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: half point favorites. Vegas is at home. Friedman, When you're 607 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: looking at this one, do you believe that this line 608 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: is correct? Is it something to jump on early or 609 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: something to wait? 610 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: Man? This one hurts I don't want to bet it, 611 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 2: but I have value on the Cardinals. I have this 612 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 2: at one and a half, and maybe I'm not adjusting 613 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 2: enough based on what we saw last week. But I 614 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 2: also want to be cognizant and make sure not to 615 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: overreact to what we saw. But you know, zach Ertz 616 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: was in his best, JJ Watt was out, Rondo Moore out, 617 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 2: Traylon Mullen out. Maybe some of those guys come back 618 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: next week or I should say this week rather, but yeah, 619 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 2: I have it at one and a half, so through 620 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 2: the key number of three. And you know, if I'm 621 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 2: just betting my numbers, and that's probably what I should 622 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 2: do if I want to have faith, and I gotta 623 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: take the Cardinals here. 624 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: That's fascinating. This one I see very differently. Pat. I'd 625 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: love for you to be the tiebreaker here because I 626 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: feel like the Raiders should have been much better. 627 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 3: Than they were. 628 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: They kind of just handed moments away time and time 629 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: again in that game against the Chargers, like DeVante Adams 630 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: looked great. I worry about the secondary here a little 631 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: bit at times with Arizona. Do you think that this 632 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: may be a little bit too much credit that Freedam 633 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: is giving to the Cardinals. 634 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 4: Well, so I don't know if this is right, but 635 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 4: like my initial instinct was to come down on the 636 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 4: Friedman side, Like when I first looked at these lines 637 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 4: week two lines on Saturday night, before we had the 638 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 4: data from Sunday, I had the Raiders as a one 639 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 4: point favorite, and obviously, like the data for the Cardinals 640 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 4: was not very positive. And like those maybe I was 641 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 4: down playing the effect of those injuries because their past 642 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 4: defense just got chewed up. I mean, not having what 643 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 4: not having those cornerbacks. I mean, they just got shredded. 644 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 4: But then again, they got shredded by maybe the best 645 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 4: quarterback in the NFL and certainly you know, the best 646 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 4: play caller in the NFL. So I don't know we're 647 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 4: going to see quite that degree of I don't know 648 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 4: the ability to pick that defense aparts the way the 649 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 4: Chiefs did. Yet, Yeah, I don't know, Like Cliff Kingsbury 650 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 4: is really shaking my confidence here, and I don't know 651 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 4: if they're good enough to bounce back and have this 652 00:30:56,080 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 4: like revenge game after the bad home loss to open 653 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 4: the season. But I do think that, as Friedman mentioned, 654 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 4: there's a key number involved here and since my projection 655 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 4: is below it, I'm probably going to take the Cardinals 656 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 4: and live to regret it. 657 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, one quick thing here, just Derek Carr, let me 658 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 2: make sure I'm looking at the right the right cell 659 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 2: of my spreadsheet this time. Derek Carr thirteen twenty three 660 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: to one against the spread as a favorite. So this 661 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,719 Speaker 2: is like a guy who routinely underperformed when he's in 662 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 2: a positive spot, and then on the flip side of that, 663 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: Cliff Kingsbury is sort of like the yo yo zigzag guy. 664 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: Horrible as a favorite, very good as an underdog. Eighteen 665 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 2: nine and two against the spread as an underdog in 666 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 2: the regular season and the postseason. So like, this feels 667 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 2: like a bounce back Cardinals spot. 668 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: How many of those games did Derek Carr had DeVante 669 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: Adams for he. 670 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: Ro absolutely zero. Yeah, I just want to. 671 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: Throw that out there. I'm the Loki of fantasy, you 672 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: know that embedding. I just like chaos. I like to 673 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: throw those weird things out there. Let's go to something 674 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: else you want to talk about. Temperature check, Pat, I 675 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,239 Speaker 1: gotta start with you now. Green Bay last year did 676 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: not look good in the start of the season. Then 677 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: they went on to rattle off seven straight wins. So 678 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: is this same old, same old bad week one shake 679 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: off the dust of Aaron Rodgers? Or is there a 680 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: little bit of panic because the line's telling you right now, 681 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: this is nine and a half the same old deal. Right, 682 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers just owns the Chicago Bears. Right? What do 683 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: you think about this one? Pat? What do you take 684 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: out of what you saw yesterday or maybe didn't see 685 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: from this offense? Because I think Aaron Rodgers saw a 686 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: lot of purple. That's pretty much all he saw. 687 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I figured this was automatically going to be a 688 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 4: double digit spread, Joe. I was thinking like eleven and 689 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 4: a half. But after what we saw yesterday, I understand 690 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 4: nine and a half. And I don't think there's necessary, 691 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 4: necessarily value to betting the Packers after what we saw, 692 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 4: Like the pass catchers were a problem, the offensive line 693 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: was a problem. Rogers did not get a lot of 694 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 4: time to Not having David Bakchiari and Elkin Jenkins is 695 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 4: a big deal and it sounds like Bakchiari at least 696 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 4: is not going to be ready for Week two. So 697 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 4: I do have concerns about the offense, and I don't 698 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 4: think I can bet the Packers even at a much 699 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 4: lower number than I was anticipating. 700 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: Friedman, this feels like the trap of all traps to me, 701 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: the terrified Talk me out of this one here, because 702 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to put too much stock in the 703 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: Bears winning a game on a slipping slide field. But 704 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: certainly they got a lot of energy and momentum and 705 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: something to prove. But I mean, it's Aaron Rodgers, right. 706 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: Should we be shaken from what we saw yesterday as 707 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: much as maybe that Aaron Rodgers was shaken up yesterday, I. 708 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: Don't think so. In the off season, this number was 709 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 2: nine and a half. On the Thursday look Ahead, it 710 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 2: was nine and a half, and it is still nine 711 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 2: and a half. I am betting it. I am betting it. 712 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 2: I think this number should be ten. Before we got 713 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 2: into Week one, I had this at ten and a half. Yeah, 714 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 2: the Bears looked okay, but I think a lot of 715 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 2: that had more to do with the circumstances. The Packers 716 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 2: look bad, no question about that, but they were missing 717 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,320 Speaker 2: a lot of players, some of them are likely to 718 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 2: return this week, and I think like we should see 719 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 2: some natural progression, you know, last year in Week one, 720 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 2: they were absolutely horrible, and they bounced back. They still 721 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 2: have Aaron Rodgers, they still have Matt Lafleur, who has 722 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: you know, thirteen wins and three seasons in a row. 723 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 2: I think they bounced back here. And and by the way, 724 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 2: like the performance of Aaron Rodgers against the Bears. I mean, 725 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: it's it's the stuff of legend. I probably don't need 726 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 2: to go into it, but I will. Twenty and seven 727 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 2: against the spread versus the Bears for his career, he 728 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 2: literally does own the Bears. 729 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: That's amazing. 730 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 2: I am on, I am on the Packers in this spot. 731 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna be snarky and say, well, how 732 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: many games did he have? Davante Adams? 733 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 2: I am I gonna do that? 734 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: Am I gonna say that? Let's go to the last 735 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: two games. We got some more prime times here. We 736 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: got Tennessee Atuffalo Buffalo nine and a half point favorites. 737 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: This feels about right to me for eidmin. How about you? 738 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 4: Uh? 739 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this is absolutely right. I'm I'm angry 740 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 2: at myself because I had this. I had this at 741 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 2: nine and a half before the game was played yesterday 742 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 2: for Tennessee and it was like, well, the difference between 743 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 2: seven and a half and nine and a half, Like, 744 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: it's really not that big of a difference because you're 745 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 2: not moving through any key numbers. So I'll wait and 746 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 2: see and maybe Tennessee is awesome and this number gets 747 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 2: to seven and obviously that didn't happen. It's nine and 748 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: a half. It wouldn't surprise me if it gets to ten. 749 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 2: I have it now after adjusting for this week, I 750 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 2: have it at ten point twenty five, So I think 751 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 2: there's probably still some theoretical value on the other side 752 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: of the ten here at nine and a half, so 753 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 2: I could see betting it, but I'm probably yeah, I 754 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 2: don't know. I have to decide if I'm betting it. 755 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 2: I'm betting on the bills. 756 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough. Maybe it's the point total forty nine 757 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: and a half for this game. Is that something you 758 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: want to touch? Pat or nine and a half or neither? 759 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:11,240 Speaker 4: Neither on the total, Joe, And I'm leaning toward neither 760 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 4: on the side too, because generally Tennessee is in the 761 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,359 Speaker 4: sort of spot where I want to bet them, like 762 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 4: a team coming off an embarrassing home loss, and like, 763 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 4: you know, if it's a team that's not good enough 764 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 4: to do anything about being angry after a loss like that, 765 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 4: then maybe i'd stay away from them. But I think 766 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 4: Tennessee is just good enough, or at least they have 767 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 4: an above average coach with Mike Vrabel, so I would 768 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 4: normally like them in a spot against a team that 769 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 4: might be a little fat and happy after an impressive 770 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 4: nationally televised victory. But what kind of cancels that out 771 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 4: for me is the fact that now the Bills will 772 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 4: have had nine full days to prepare for this game. 773 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 4: So I'm just like, even though I actually see half 774 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 4: a point of value with the Bills, I'm just not 775 00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 4: going to touch this one. 776 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 3: I'm alone conflicted on this game. 777 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: If they thought they were embarrassed on Sunday, wait till 778 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: they get to Buffalo. The Minnesota Vikings against the Philadelphia Eagles. 779 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 1: This one should be fun. Two and a half point favorites. 780 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: The Eagles are in this one. As we look at 781 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,280 Speaker 1: the early line, the numbers forty nine and a half, 782 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: this feels kind of like an over to me, fits well, 783 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: how do you see this one? 784 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 4: I had the total right at forty eight and a half, 785 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 4: but I had the spread at Eagles minus four and 786 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 4: a half. 787 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 3: I do think the Eagles are a better team. 788 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to beat him, all right, Freeman, do you 789 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,719 Speaker 1: see this the same way? Eagles look strong in this one, 790 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: especially offensively, but Minnesota Vikings certainly look pretty good as well. 791 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: How do you sparse these two? 792 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is interesting. So it's vacillated between two and 793 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 2: a half and three, but seems to be settling on 794 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 2: the two and a half here, and I have it 795 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 2: at three point twenty five. I do think the Eagles 796 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 2: are the superior team. I don't want to discount what 797 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 2: Minnesota did last week because it was impressive, but I 798 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 2: think a certain amount of that had to do with 799 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 2: just uncertainty and confusion with the Packers. And so I 800 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 2: still think Philadelphia deserves to be three point favorites, at 801 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 2: least three point favorites here, so I would be betting 802 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: on the Eagles. 803 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: Okay, let's do a little rapid fire here, Matt and 804 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: Pat's top three early wagers. Pat watch kick things off 805 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: here with your favorite three so far here on Monday morning. 806 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 4: All right, I might be crazy to do this, Joe, 807 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 4: but the Jets, I'm going to take that value and 808 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 4: take the six and a half points with the Jets. 809 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 4: You know, betting on Joe Flacco does not feel good 810 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 4: at all. 811 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:37,919 Speaker 3: It never does. 812 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 4: But I'm going to take them. Nor does betting on Arizona. 813 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 4: But now I feel even better about it. I didn't 814 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 4: know that Cliff Kingsbury record as an underdog, so I'm 815 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 4: going to take the Cardinals in a bounce back spot 816 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 4: in Las Vegas. 817 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 3: And last one. 818 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 4: I might back down on this if we get some 819 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 4: you know, negative news about the injuries, but I'm going 820 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 4: to take the Ravens at home against Miami with the 821 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 4: four and a half points. 822 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: All right, Friedman, your top three early line picks. 823 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 2: All right, So Casey minus three and a half hosting 824 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 2: the Chargers. I still think that this number should be six. 825 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 2: I think they're not quite at the level of the 826 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills, but I think it's the Bills and the 827 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 2: Chiefs and a tier unto themselves at the top of 828 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 2: the league. And then Pittsburgh at home as one and 829 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 2: a half point underdogs against against the Patriots. You are Patriots. Sorry, sorry, Joe, And. 830 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: I was keeping it real. I told you I though 831 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: the Dolphins are gonna win, right. 832 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 2: And then Green Bay Green Bay at the numbers nine 833 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: and a half. I will definitely take that hosting Chicago. 834 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: There you have it. If you want to see more 835 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: consensus lines and go put some early money down, head 836 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: over to betting pros dot com go check it out. 837 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: The prop bet cheat sheet will be available as well 838 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: pretty soon.
