We see 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: most gamblers when they go to gamble, they go to win. 6 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: That's incredible. 7 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 2: Big bank, small bank. I like to make money. 8 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: All right, this is the ultimate combine you want to 9 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: and we are underway. Welcome to the Action Network Podcast, 10 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,319 Speaker 1: presented by Bett MGM. I'm Jill Gland. I'm joined by 11 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: Evan Abrams. Each and every week, he is our research 12 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: director here at the Action Network and my partner in crime. 13 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: As we do these podcasts, we're gonna dive into all 14 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: of the Sunday NFL action for week seven. Brandon Anderson 15 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 1: will have his hot reads later in the show for 16 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: week eight, and Patrick Everson from Vegas Insider, he'll give 17 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,959 Speaker 1: us an update on the sportsbooks of Vegas and how 18 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: they fared this NFL Sunday. But before we dive into 19 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: Sunday action, Evan, let's look at Monday Night Football forty 20 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: nine Ers Vikings Niners at six and a half point 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: road favorites over under at forty four. I'll be honest, 22 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 1: I was looking at this game a lot from more 23 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: of a touchdown prop and interception prop standpoint. But the 24 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: more that I dive into it, Evan, I really do 25 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: kind of like the Vikings in this side. And again 26 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: I sound crazy even saying that out loud, especially because 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: of how the Niners are this season, but a lot 28 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: of injuries for the Niners coming into this game. You know, 29 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, he's going to play, but you know backups 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: like Jordan Mason and Eli Mitchell they're going to get 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: some work. So it's gonna have to be a full 32 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: team effort. And every game that the Vikings play comes 33 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: down to one score, you know that it's going to 34 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: come down to like this last kind of drive. You know, 35 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: even if they're trailing in the fourth quarter, we've seen 36 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: them come back push the ball. So I kind of 37 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: like the Vikings on this side. What are you think 38 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: you for a side total in this game? 39 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: So I got a bunch of stuff here. I kind 40 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: of like the first quarter of Vikings. I think they 41 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 2: could start out hot, you maybe get a lead. Perdy's 42 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 2: been kind of a different quarterback on the road, So 43 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: I believe I got in there like one fifty one sixty. 44 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 2: I thought that was interesting. I'm always giving out a 45 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: touchdown or two. I think Brandon Powell and Osbourne are 46 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 2: probably the two guys I would look at from the 47 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 2: Minnesota side. 48 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: Uh. 49 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: I've seen Powell's high as like thirty to one for 50 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: first touchdown, which could be a good flyer. And I 51 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 2: think the thing that everyone will talk about when you 52 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: bring up this game is just the history with Kirk 53 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: Cousins and Monday night football. Uh. And ten, I believe 54 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: is the number in his career, So I mean, not great. 55 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: He started forty primetime games, which is you know, high profile, 56 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: so night playoffs, overseas, Saturday, et cetera. Fifteen and twenty 57 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 2: five against the spread, so not so hot. But I 58 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: think this is a decent spot. And you know, on 59 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: that turf and minute soda, you know, San Francisco could 60 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: be a bit of a different team. The stat that's 61 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: a little scary. Can Cousins pull the upset as an 62 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: underdog of four points or more? He's seven and twenty 63 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: four straight up, so maybe not the full game upset, 64 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 2: but we'll see how it goes. 65 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think I'm ready to commit to a Vikings. 66 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 2: Win really anything. 67 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but I think just where we're at at 68 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: the number, and I think with the Niners being more 69 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: of a public team, maybe you might see a seven 70 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: pop up and then obviously you want to jump on 71 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: the Vikings immediately. But at a six and a half, 72 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: you know, I could understand the reservations. I still think though, 73 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: getting the Vikings with points at home the way that 74 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: they passed. You know how much Kirk Cousins has been 75 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: blitz this year and still having success throwing that That's 76 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: kind of why I like them to keep this game close. 77 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: But I can't really commit to like an over under 78 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: for a total, but from a prop standpoint, really like 79 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: brock Purty interception in this game. It's around plus one 80 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: sixty five. It's got a really high bad ball rate. 81 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: Vikings they blitz the most in the NFL, and according 82 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: to Nick Giffin and our predictive analytics team, you know 83 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: that as Sean Kerner and Billy Ward, Rockferry is one 84 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: of the luckiest quarterbacks in the NFL based on his 85 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: bad ball rate and the fact that he only has 86 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: one interception this year. So I think that this is 87 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: a spot where he could definitely throw an interception in 88 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: the spot especially around plus one sixty five. But for 89 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: a touchdown prop, I think you just got to look 90 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: at Brandon Ayuk and Ronnie Belly. You want to look 91 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: at the outside wide receivers for the Vikings because they 92 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: do play a lot of man coverage outside receivers. Those 93 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: are the ones that can typically can convert on a 94 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: defense like this, and if the Vikings somehow get a lead, 95 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: you know Io's going to be on the field for 96 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: that chance to be able to maybe tie it up. 97 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: And for the Viking side, I think the same thing. 98 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: You want to look at kJ Osborne. He's playing over 99 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: ninety percent of snap since Justin Jefferson is out, he's 100 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: over plus three hundred. So it's between him and Jordan 101 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: Addison is who's wide receiver one rate now in that offense. 102 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: So the fact that you're able to get at least 103 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: a wide receiver too, who's playing over ninety percent of 104 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: snaps over plus three hundred. I know the Niners defense 105 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: is pretty tough, but again, you know Kirk Cousins is 106 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: gonna throw probably forty times in this game, right, So 107 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: so I think the I think it's a safe bet 108 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: to look at passing touchdowns for the Vikings. All right, Evan, 109 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: let's look now at Sunday Night football and let's just 110 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: talk about what happened here this Sunday. So six teams 111 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: on by this week. We've got the Panthers, Bengals, Cowboys, Texans, Jets, 112 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: and Titans all on by this week and home teams 113 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: eight and four and nine and three against the spread. 114 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: But Evan, please expand on this more totals seven and 115 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: five to the under again this week. 116 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, we actually thought we were gonna get an over week. 117 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 2: Over goes one and oh on Thursday Night football. We 118 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 2: overgoes four and two in the early window, so overs 119 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: start five and two and then four and oh unders 120 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: in the late afternoon, and then Sunday Night football. You know, 121 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 2: Eagles just sit on the ball at the end there 122 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 2: stays under the total. So unders now seven and five 123 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 2: this week and the Sigans. There is just this crazy 124 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: stat kind of continues, which is the last twenty five 125 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: regular season weeks. It's dating back to Week one of 126 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: last season. There have only been three weeks where there 127 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 2: have been more overs than under, so three overs, fifteen 128 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: unders and seven pushes. So we continue to see a 129 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: small edge at least this week, but unders continue to roll. 130 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: The Dolphins Eagles. I think is where I want to 131 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: pivot to here, because the Eagles win thirty one to seventeen. 132 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: The total does go under really slow first quarter, only 133 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: three point or six points. Rather between the two second 134 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: quarter we did see twenty one points. But the Eagles 135 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: do cover as three point home favorites with a nice 136 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: bounce back game after losing to the Jets last week. 137 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: But like you said, fifty two and a half does 138 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: go under. And I kind of laughed there at the 139 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: end because I feel like Nick Sirianni kind of said, 140 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: f you're over ticket. Like they had first and eight 141 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: with two minutes to go, and they kneel it out 142 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: as they should, but at the same time, they could 143 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: have easily just went for it just to really ensure 144 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: what was going on here, kind of like what we 145 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: saw from Sean McVay in Week two when he kicked 146 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: that last second deal going clearly that was not going 147 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: to win the game, but the refs men were out 148 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: of control in this game. I'm just gonna say ten 149 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: penalties for the Dolphins and the Eagles have none, and 150 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: probably the most egregious one is that Cedric Wilson that 151 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: non call the face mass penalty, Like the fact that 152 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: that was the non call I thought was probably more 153 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: important than the actual ten to zip for the penalties. 154 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: Here is just a total hack job by the referees 155 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: in this game against the Dolphins. Even though I do 156 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: feel like this is what we've been saying about the 157 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: Eagles for a few weeks now, I haven't the Eagles 158 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: played to their competition, Like when it's the bigger games, 159 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna show up the weaker teams, they tend to 160 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: just kind of take their foot off the gas. You know, 161 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: the Commanders, they couldn't even put up seven points today. 162 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: They score thirty on them a few weeks ago. Right, 163 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: So I think that's kind of what I take away 164 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: from this game is that the Eagles, when it's against 165 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: the big teams, you know that they're gonna probably play well. 166 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: But against the weaker teams, I think you could probably 167 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: take advantage of them and maybe even take a lot 168 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: of the team's underdog ats. 169 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so much to say, Let's start with your last 170 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: point there, which I agree with Dolphins. I believe zero 171 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: to two against teams above five hundred and five and 172 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: zero against teams below five hundred, so they are finding 173 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: themselves in a very similar scenario where they can't beat 174 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: the best. And here's the interesting one, right, the ten 175 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: penalties to zero. So only the third time in the 176 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: last thirty years, only a third time in the last 177 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: thirty thirty years you've had a team ten or more 178 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 2: penalties versus a team who had zero. So you don't 179 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: see that discrepancy every day. And to me, it's Jalen Hurts. 180 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: It's crazy. Twenty one to three and one, nineteen and 181 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 2: six against the spread first half. So Simon Hunter has 182 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 2: been all over this, he's been betting it. But they're 183 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 2: just a great first half team, I'll say against twenty 184 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: one to three and one straight up, both best marks 185 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 2: in the NFL straight up and against the spread. So 186 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: just great there. And then anytime touchdown it feels like 187 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 2: it's kind of free money. But Tyreek now touchdown in 188 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: six to last seven games. Hurts five to the last six, 189 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 2: eight to last ten with a touchdown, So it feels 190 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: like every time those two guys play, they're Vitali in 191 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: the offense. So and here's one that you're gonna love. 192 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure you're gonna have a comment here. So eight 193 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: interceptions now for Jalen Hurts, Yes, now tied with Jimmy 194 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: Garoppolo for the most of the NFL. Hurts is sixty 195 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: six to one to lead the category for the full season. 196 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: Obviously a long way to go, but that is a 197 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: fun ticket. Any thoughts there, Jill, Well. 198 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: It's hilarious that you bring that up because I talk 199 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: about the plus money quarterbacks aspect of this all the time, 200 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: and right now, because he's been plus money every week 201 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: this year, he is the most profitable quarterback I t 202 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: prop going right now. And that was some of the 203 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: story of this game. More Hurts turnovers, a fumble in 204 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: the first quarter, you know, I pick six in the 205 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: third quarter. Outside of those two mistakes, though, I'll be honest, 206 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 1: Dolphins didn't do much. You could tell they miss Jalen Waddle. 207 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: Like when they were entering the fourth quarter. Tyreek had 208 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: thirteen targets. Nobody else had more than two targets going 209 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: into the fourth quarter. There was clearly a mandate speed 210 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: Tyreek here. And I give credit to Mike McDaniel for realizing, Okay, 211 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: we're not gonna have Wattle, but you got to change 212 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: it up man like that was part of what led 213 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: to that late turnover. And I would just say going 214 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: forward for the Dolphins, Dallas got are pretty solid today 215 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: and that just keeps reaffirming that the Dolphins continue to 216 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: struggle versus tight ends. So now they're playing the Patriots 217 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: coming up. Hunter Henry touchdown could be a pretty solid 218 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: look next week. I mean, he scored in Week two 219 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: on them, right, so I think that's where I'd be 220 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: looking right now, just looking at that. But yeah, what 221 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: my main takeaway is that the Eagles play to their 222 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: competition and the Dolphins just maybe are still a tier 223 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: below despite their offense being pretty superior against eighty percent 224 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: of the NFL. 225 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 2: Eagles walked in with a five percent sack percentage opponent 226 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 2: sack percentage, So basically, you know, really good defense ends 227 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: up sacking a lot of quarterbacks. So into his career, 228 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: he started seventeen now eighteen road games, he is three 229 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: and eight when that defense has over three percent sack 230 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 2: percentage and five and two when it's three percent or least. 231 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: So pressure tends to be an issue, and you know 232 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: it turned out that way tonight. So let's talk about 233 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 2: those paths. Let's do it. 234 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Bill's Pats. What a fun game this is 235 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: just because you get to watch the Bills get dropped 236 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: down a notch. But also at the same time, it's 237 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: not enough for you as somebody who has been on 238 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots to fall this year, where all of a sudden, 239 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: now it's completely changed because they're only two and five 240 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: in the standings. But yes, Bill's Patriots. Patriots win twenty 241 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: nine to twenty five. Bills lose outright as road favorites 242 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: of seven and a half. We'll talk about that more 243 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 1: in a second, and the over under at forty one 244 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: total does go over. I think one of the surprising 245 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: statf's You compile a lot of data for our team 246 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: here at Action Network, and one of the stats that 247 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: you had was about how Mac Jones was on to 248 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: fourteen straight up when opponents scored more than twenty four 249 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 1: points in his career, and the Bills scored twenty five 250 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: today and he still comes out with a win. And 251 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: Ev and I want you to explain just how storic 252 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: this big spread in New England was, because we don't 253 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: see this very often. 254 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, So two just fun numbers. We'll talk about the 255 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: bet percentage first. So New England walked into this game today, 256 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: which is twenty three percent of the tickets according to 257 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: Action Network Action Labs only twenty three percent of tickets 258 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 2: at home, so that would be their second lowest bet 259 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: game in the last twenty years, behind just Brady's return 260 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: to New England. And of course you even look at 261 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: Belichick right third biggest three games right eight and a half, 262 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 2: seven and a half are higher home underdog. He's covered 263 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: all of them, so tends to be a decent spot. 264 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: Obviously without Brady, those numbers have looked awful when he's 265 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 2: an underdog, but showed up today. Uh you know, I 266 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 2: had Buffalo, I'm in Buffalo. First half money that went 267 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: out the window. They just looked awful, awful all around. 268 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: And next week next week knew New England gets Miami, 269 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: so maybe a get right spot. I mean both teams, 270 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: you know, find themselves again. Where Miami is off a loss, 271 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: New England off a win, and that line is now 272 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 2: eleven eleven and a half, which would be New England's 273 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: biggest underdogs in Super Bowl thirty six, which is a fun. 274 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: This was supposed to This was supposed to be the 275 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: get right spot though for Buffalo right, like you know 276 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: what I mean, like this, like the fourteen nine game 277 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: with the Giants, the loss to the to the Jaguars 278 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: the week before the next question, I have to ask 279 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: you Ivan, are the Bills broken? Like they're usually good 280 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: for one dad a year, you know, like a Jacksonville 281 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: game where the opposite Josh Allen all of a sudden 282 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: goes nuts on them. But now this is three games 283 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: in a row where they just don't look right. 284 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 2: There, twenty five points. I mean it could you know, 285 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 2: could have been worse. I think their defense have shown 286 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 2: some issues, right, I mean, with White's injury, Milano's injury 287 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: hasn't been has it been like super great lately, So 288 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 2: I mean I think on that side there's probably a worry. 289 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: I mean I think, let me look at her right now. 290 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. So their past defense eight point six yards 291 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: per attempt to Mac, no interception since Tua in week four, 292 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: So I think you know, you know, listen, Josh Allen 293 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: never gonna have a clean sheet. The guy hasn't had 294 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 2: back to that game I'll turnover since like twenty twenty. 295 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: So it's just that that's just not the player he is. 296 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 2: But I will say this, so it looks like yards 297 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: per attempt from Buffalo's offense six point one today, five 298 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 2: point six last week, which is obviously awful, but it 299 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 2: was nine in Young London. That's yards per play. So 300 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 2: two bad games in a row. And then if you 301 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: look ahead on the schedule, Buffalo plays Tampa Bay now 302 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: at home, short week, so you know, nothing better than 303 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 2: short rest, get the losses out the window, and another 304 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 2: opportunity against Tampa's defense. 305 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: But well, for sure, Yeah, and I think what we 306 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: saw today too, Evan is Bills they couldn't really get 307 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: those big splash plays over the top. I know Das 308 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: ended up scoring that wild touchdown, but that was more 309 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: I feel like that was a broken play instead of 310 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: just those plays over the top to Gabe Davis or 311 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: you know, James Cook running for an eighty five yard touchdown. 312 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: That they didn't have a play or a completion that 313 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: was over thirty yards today, And that's usually one of 314 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: their things about bread and butter, especially the run game. 315 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: I mean, the past they got up by twelve was 316 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: seven minutes to go, and I know that you were 317 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: saying like they put up twenty five, but they didn't 318 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: really show that urgency until there was seven minutes to go, 319 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: and then they scored those two touchdowns, right, So I 320 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: think it's good to know that the Bills can turn 321 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: it on when they need to. But I think somebody 322 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: needs to remind them that maybe we need to turn 323 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: it on in the second quarter and maybe not laid 324 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: in the fourth. And I think also I did find 325 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: it kind of poetic that Mike Giseki scored the game 326 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: winning touchdown because last year against the Bills with the Dolphins, 327 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: and the Bills hadn't allowed a touchdown to a tight 328 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: end all year, and Nick Givan and I go on 329 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: the Touchdown Show and say, do not take Mike Gaseki 330 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: yet plus six hundred, this is bad odds. And he 331 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: scores a touchdown on this Bill's defense and then scores 332 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: what would have been the game winning touchdown. 333 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: He might score against the pay the Dolphins next week. 334 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 2: Back to back revenge game perfect. 335 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: Him and Hunt all. The revenge game angle is definitely there, 336 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: especially because he was involved in Week two. But I 337 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: steel like Hunter Henry as well. I think both of 338 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: them are in play in that game. All right, let's 339 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: move on to another barn burner today. One of those 340 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: games Evan that honestly, if somebody asked you, what game 341 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: do you think is going to have the most points 342 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: scored today, this probably would have been my last pick. 343 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: Brown's Colts, Brown's win thirty nine to thirty eight. Of yeah, 344 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: it's just unbelievable. You know that the Browns do end 345 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: up winning the game, but do not cover as three 346 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: and a half point favorites the total as I was mentioning, 347 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,719 Speaker 1: because you see a thirty nine to thirty eight score, 348 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: the total was at forty and a half. So it 349 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: just to me that was unbelievable that we were able 350 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 1: to see so many points between really backup quarterbacks. I mean, 351 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: I know Deshaun Watson did start the game, but he 352 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: only played one series. Browns now two and thirteen against 353 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: the spread after their last fifteen games after a straight 354 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: up win. So one of those things about consistency with 355 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: this team, they're not really being able to get stuff 356 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: going consistently. But yeah, sixty one points entering the fourth quarter. 357 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: There were four fourth quarter lead changes. You know. One 358 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: of the things that I found really interesting Evan too, 359 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: is this Browns defense. And you know they rightfully so 360 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: they've been touted as the best defense in the NFL 361 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 1: because they'd only allowed a total of three touchdowns all 362 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: season coming into this game. And then the Colts score 363 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: three touchdowns in the first half, three rushing touchdowns for 364 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 1: the game. Gardner Minshew, we got the whole Gardner Minshew 365 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: game in here. We got some deep passes to Michael Pittman, 366 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: we got two rushing touchdowns, he got stripsacked twice. Yeah, 367 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: the interception Miles Garrett was everywhere. For me. The biggest 368 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: takeaway is the Browns. I think they surprisingly their defense 369 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: did play well in this game despite giving up thirty 370 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: eight points. 371 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, just an odd box score because you wouldn't even 372 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 2: look at it and say Cleveland's defense played awful. But 373 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: yet there was seventy points put up in the game. 374 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 2: So to hit off one of your points. Stefanski, Browns 375 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 2: head coach, so now ten and eighteen against the spread 376 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 2: after a straight up win. That would be one hundred 377 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: and thirty fourth of one hundred and forty two head 378 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: coaches last twenty years. So I just cannot find himself 379 00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:00,120 Speaker 2: a winning streak. Tough. Look there, I think if you 380 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: watch this game, you said to yourself, oh my god, 381 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett probably four or five six times looking at 382 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 2: the odds, which I think is kind of fascinating he is. 383 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: It's him co favorite with my with Michael Parsons Defensive 384 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: Player of the Year, with TJ. Watt at plus two 385 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 2: thirty right behind him. So again every week, those three 386 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 2: players just kind of going back and forth. But the 387 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 2: fun stat with Garrett today two sacks, two forced fumbles, 388 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 2: blocked field goal, first player since nineteen ninety one to 389 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 2: do that. Just he's a freak. It's every single week, 390 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 2: just and in terms of we talked about this last week, 391 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 2: the yards given up by Cleveland's defense one thousand yards 392 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: through five games. They gave up four fifty six today. 393 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: And here's the fun stat. So Minshew threw for three 394 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 2: h five against them today. Three hundred passing yards last 395 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 2: two years against the Browns would be Zappi f and Minchew. 396 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 2: So not the best quarters I'd find them way into 397 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 2: those games. But yeah, just a crazy game overall, just 398 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 2: lots of lots of oddities. And then I think the 399 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 2: thing that you really get from Minshew is like the 400 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: full game experience, right, and you talked about it, but 401 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 2: it tends he tends to not win these types of 402 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: games so spread four or less, which would call a 403 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 2: toss up game. He's three and ten straight up in 404 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 2: his career, so if I had to guess, he tends 405 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: to lose by threes, fours, five, Six's just high scoring 406 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: games and there ends up being you know, multiple turnovers. 407 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 2: And here's a crazy one. So inh Minchew's opponent scores 408 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: more than twenty points, he's one in fifteen straight up. 409 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: So the only thing that I would just push back on, 410 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: and I mean, they're trends, I can't really push back 411 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,719 Speaker 1: too much on them. But at the same time, I 412 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: feel like Minshew won this goddamn game. Man, I've got 413 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: a real book with how this game ended, and might 414 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: beef again with the refsman. PJ. Walker should have been 415 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: stripsacked to end this game. Horse Buckner got the strip sack. 416 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: There's a total bullshit balo call man for I legal 417 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: defense gives the brown first and goal and then it's 418 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: another DPI to Donovan People's jones. It was clearly an 419 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: uncatchable ball, like I want Look, I get it. We 420 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: all want the Browns to be good. We all want 421 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: them to come back and be just relevant again. But 422 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: come on, like and if you had close money on this, 423 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: like you're one hundred like condolences man. 424 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely ridiculous. I just the way every time I And 425 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 2: it's just so funny because it seems like when I 426 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 2: watched Anthony Richardson games, it was just a lot more calm. 427 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: There was like sanity involved in a lot of those games. 428 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 2: And now with Minshew, it's just something about his style 429 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: and his attitude. It just his games are chaos and 430 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 2: to have a Cleveland game where there was seventy points 431 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 2: that just you just don't have that. So this is 432 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 2: probably one of the wild ones today for sure. 433 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: All Right, Evan, More memories are made when you're there 434 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 1: for live NFL action and when you need tickets, our 435 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 1: friends at Ticketmaster have got you covered.

Now it's time for the 452 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: hot read from our own Brandon Anderson. Brandon, what do 453 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,959 Speaker 1: you have us looking at for early Week eight Lions? 454 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 3: All right, let's do a little Week eight hot read. 455 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 3: A bit of a tough streak here. We're getting colv 456 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 3: but not getting our picks across. So let's get a 457 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: win on the board. Let's go back to a just 458 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 3: win baby teaser to get our week started out. I'm 459 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 3: gonna take the Ravens minus eight at the Cardinals and 460 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: the Lions minus seven and a half against the Raiders 461 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 3: home on Monday Night football, so both teams tease. 462 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: Them under afield goal. Ravens demolished the Lions. 463 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 3: We're taking both teams here, but you don't need I 464 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 3: don't need to sell you on the Ravens. They obviously 465 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,719 Speaker 3: just had one of the best wins of the season 466 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: in my opinion. Cardinals their bubble burst like a month ago. 467 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 3: They got that win against Dallas. We decided that, oh, 468 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 3: the Cardinals are kind of frisky now, and then right 469 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: about them, they kind of grass back to bottom five. 470 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 3: Pretty much everything as we expected. The offense, it's gotten 471 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 3: worse each week. Their defense was second the worst in 472 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 3: DVAA entering the weekend, and Baltimore basically just played a 473 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 3: perfect game from Lamar Jackson in the offense. Todd Munkin, 474 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 3: I think finally got his top performance he's been looking for. 475 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 3: I think the Ravens can kind of do anything they 476 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 3: want against the Cardinals. Defense should be able to run 477 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 3: it up and at least win by a field goal 478 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 3: for us, and then the Lions. Look, they got crushed here, 479 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 3: but it was a bad spots Jared Goff Outdoors on 480 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 3: the road in the wind, miss a lot of guys 481 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: I'm kind of new going in. That's not a great 482 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: spot for him. Here we are home Monday night. The 483 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 3: Lions are different animal at home. This is only their 484 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 3: second time even hosting money at football since twenty four team. 485 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 3: So this is a spot where Dean Campbell's sort of team. 486 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 3: They're gonna come out with pride. They're gonna come out 487 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 3: and show that. Today what we saw was a fluke. 488 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 3: So I think they take care of the Raiders, who, frankly, 489 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 3: I don't know how this team has won three games. 490 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 3: They got embarrassed by the Bears today, thirty to twelve 491 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 3: to the Bears. The Chicago Bears at two hundred and 492 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 3: thirty five yards in this game, you lose to aagent 493 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 3: Division two debut as a rookie, You allow three touchdowns 494 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 3: to Dante Foreman. I mean that's embarrassing. So these are 495 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 3: these teams. Both got embarrassed. But I'm gonna be too 496 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 3: thrown off by the Lions. They were in my number 497 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 3: one team the power rankings. They have proven themselves throughout 498 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 3: the season. I'm not gonna let one week throw us 499 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,719 Speaker 3: off the scent. The Raiders just aren't very good. They 500 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,719 Speaker 3: are not a three win team, despite what the win 501 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 3: last record says. They're a lot more like the team 502 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 3: that just kind of got embarrassed by the Bears. So 503 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 3: give me the Lions, give me the Ravens. I would 504 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 3: not be surprised if either or both of these teams 505 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 3: get too nine. Teaser protection really to stop us from 506 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 3: doing what we're doing right now. So let's tease them. 507 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 3: Ravens minus two, Lions minus one and a half. Just win, 508 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 3: maybe by a field goal other hot red four. Week eight, 509 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 3: let's go to Seattle and give me the Seahawks minus 510 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 3: two and a half against the I think that one 511 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 3: possibly could get to the key number. I want to 512 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 3: grab it below the three. What goofy, goofy game for 513 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 3: the Browns on Sunday rip to our hot reed under 514 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 3: forty one. Both teams just about clear that. So that 515 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 3: did not work out for us. I don't know how 516 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 3: Cleveland scored thirty nine. Though Deshaun Watson is terrible. He's 517 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: apparently back, but he completed one pass on the five 518 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 3: attempts he throws in a reception. He goes out with 519 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 3: an injury. That's not an injury that kind of looks 520 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 3: like you just got benched. You're getting benched this like 521 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 3: make a contract for PGA Walker, who continues to be 522 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 3: not great. He had two turnovers in more in completions 523 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 3: than completions. And this historic Browns defense we've been talking 524 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 3: about all the year. 525 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. 526 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 3: They allowed nine plays to the Colts of seventeen plays 527 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 3: or more. The Colts aren't really even an explosive offense, 528 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 3: and they're playing with a backup quarterback in Gardner Minshew Miles. 529 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,479 Speaker 3: Garrett effectively single handily wins the game for the Browns 530 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 3: generally half their points. Hopefully doesn't do that against Seattle. 531 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 3: It is a bit of a risk here, but I 532 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 3: think that we have pay attention on the other side 533 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 3: of the ball. We're gonna get a lot of talk 534 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 3: about Brown's defense, Seattle offense. It's a fun matchup. The 535 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 3: other side is where the bet is. Seattle's defense. Actually, 536 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 3: in the last three weeks they are number one in 537 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 3: EPA per play, ahead of Cleveland, and they had another 538 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 3: really good performance against the Cardinals today. Seattle wins by 539 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 3: double digits despite three turnovers to none. The deficit for them. 540 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 3: They have an interception at the one yard line, they 541 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 3: have to settle for a fuel goal at the one 542 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 3: yard line. This was a dominant defensive formance and Seattle 543 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: should have won by a lot more. I think the 544 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 3: offense holds up as long as the line protects them, 545 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 3: but it's the defense that's the mismatch. Seattle is number 546 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 3: one in run DVA defense. That's Cleveland's identity. That's the 547 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 3: one thing the Browns want to try to do. So 548 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 3: if Seattle takes that away, uh oh, now it's Deshaun 549 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 3: Watson or PG Walker. I don't know who it is. 550 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 3: I don't know if Cleveland even has a quarter back, 551 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 3: but it's got to be one of them. Seattle really 552 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 3: is better than the numbers have looked so far. They're 553 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 3: falling short in the red zone and on a third down. Historically, 554 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 3: those things tend to even out over the season, and 555 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 3: the Browns defense has been elite at those items. Maybe 556 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 3: we get some regression in our favor both ways on 557 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: this one. Give me Seattle minus two and a half. 558 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 3: It was one and a half Sunday morning. I think 559 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 3: we can hit the key number. As we start to 560 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 3: panic a bit about the Browns quarterback situation, so hot 561 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 3: breeds for a week eight Seahawks minus two and a 562 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 3: half against the Browns and then I just win baby 563 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 3: Teaser Ravens minus eight at the Cardinals, Lions minus seven 564 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: and a half Monday Night Football against the Raiders. 565 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: Back to you guys, Thank you Brandon, and now let's 566 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: talk Chargers Chiefs. Chiefs win and cover as five and 567 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: a half point home favorites over the Chargers, but again 568 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: another under hits forty nine and a half Taylor's and 569 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: those Taylor Swift in the game. She seems to be 570 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: at every home game now. And I feel like Travis 571 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: Kelsey he k new Taylor Swift was in the house too, 572 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: because he had one hundred and forty two receiving yards 573 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: in the first time he scored a touchdown. Again. For me, 574 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: I expected to be a little more excited from this game. Honestly, 575 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: I feel like I was just pretty let down by 576 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers offense. 577 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 2: It's kind of sad like I had money on the 578 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: Chargers in this game. I had the six. They were 579 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 2: down seven for it felt like three quarters. He felt 580 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 2: like the cover was coming about four or five times, 581 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 2: and then it just felt like the fanos meme. It 582 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,719 Speaker 2: was just like, the Chiefs are inevitable. 583 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: And it's just inevitable. 584 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 2: It's just honestly insane. And I'll throw some chief stats 585 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: out in a second. But the one thing that caught 586 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 2: my eye just looking at updated MVP odds, Mahomes plus 587 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 2: two sixty favorite next is to a four to one, 588 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: Hurts five to one, Lamar seven to one. So those 589 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 2: are your new top four. But Mahomes again atop the 590 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: leader board, and the thing that's been getting me and 591 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 2: let me see if I have these yeah, Chiefs covered 592 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: like five of the last six games. Uh, they've been 593 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 2: like really good at covering lately. And I think a 594 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 2: lot of teams, a lot of people who naturally believe, 595 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 2: you know, big favorites this and that they've been covering 596 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 2: some numbers. And I think it has a lot to 597 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 2: do with their defense. The defense look a lot better today. 598 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: Now. 599 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 2: I know there's a lot you can blame on Herbert, 600 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 2: but when Kansas City is playing this type of defense, 601 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 2: and just like Philly was, they're okay, like sitting on 602 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 2: it at the end of games and just getting out 603 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: the door. And when I tell you, Mahomes home unders 604 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 2: twelve and three in his last fifteen I kind. 605 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: Of understood what happened in this game because the factor, 606 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: like at halftime, dude, we had forty one points. Imagine 607 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: betting the over forty one points between these two teams, 608 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: and then you lose, you know, like the fact that 609 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: we just needed one more score. You figured this is 610 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: going to just keep going forever, you know, and then 611 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: you don't see another score until three and a half 612 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: minutes left in the fourth quarter. You know, just to me, 613 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 1: that was unbelievable. 614 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 2: And just a few other stats that just kind of 615 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 2: blow me away. In this scenario, mahomes now seventeen and 616 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: zero straight up at home against under five hundred team, 617 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 2: so when he's supposed to win, they're in arrowhead. Always 618 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 2: tends to happen. And then Herbert, we talked about this. 619 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: I believe they were shut out in the second half. Unbelievable, 620 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 2: couldn't get a point. Herbert now sixteen thirty seven and five. 621 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: You're at sixteen thirty seven and five against the second 622 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 2: half spread in his career one four and one this season, 623 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 2: six six and ten, last year, five and twelve, the 624 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 2: year before, you know, three four years down the line, 625 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 2: it's not just you know, habitstance. It's a pattern, so tough. 626 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: Second, it's a decent samfle now yeaeah. And the other 627 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: thing too that I would say Evan is like that 628 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: chief secondary in their pass defense you alluded to it. 629 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: They were incredible today, Like they really shut down Keenan 630 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: Allen after all the games that he's been having over 631 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: the last few weeks. They only allowed eleven passing first 632 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: downs by the Chargers they average around eighteen per game. 633 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: Most of that was in the first half, Like eight 634 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: of those eleven first downs were in the first half, 635 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 1: So in the second half, you're right on point, the 636 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: Chargers could get nothing going. And really you have to 637 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: give credit to that chief secondary and really their defense. 638 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: As a whole. Definitely. 639 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: So Lions Ravens, let's move on to that game. Now, 640 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: this one was kind of a snoozer depending on your POV. 641 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: But Ravens went thirty eight to six. What are the 642 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: few overs we do get with the forty three and 643 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: a half total, just barely getting over the total there 644 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: with the Ravens covering very easily as three and a 645 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: half point favorites, Lamar Jackson against the NFC is pretty 646 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: much free money at this point, sixteen and one straight 647 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: up versus the NFC, and he's got the Cardinals. 648 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 2: Next week, he's at Arizona and then he's facing Seattle, 649 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 2: so back to back to back NFC games, so maybe 650 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 2: they can keep extending that streak. This was just you know, 651 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 2: everybody all week who are like, Baltimore is the right side, 652 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 2: Baltimore is the right side, GoF outdoors, all the wind, 653 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 2: just he's you know, he turns into a different quarterback. 654 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: I get it. Like the crazy thing is this, And 655 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 2: you know, I gamble with my eyes. I use numbers. 656 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: It's like what I see is what I see, and 657 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 2: I see he's just a completely different quarterback outdoors than 658 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 2: he is inside the dome, especially now in Detroit. But 659 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 2: it's crazy if you look at the numbers. So Goff 660 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 2: is actually twenty three seventeen and one straight up on 661 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 2: the road outdoors, and and he's even five five and 662 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 2: one straight up in outdoors sub forty degrees, so it's 663 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 2: about a five hundred proposition either way. I think it's 664 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 2: just the fact that he's twenty eight and fourteen indoors 665 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 2: eighteen and six against the spread last two seasons, both 666 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: ats numbers. It's just he's a different player in that situation, 667 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 2: and today the Churches are completely outplayed, like on multiple levels. 668 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 2: I think you'd said four straight drives. You know, Baltimore 669 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 2: covers the first quarter, first half, it was just just 670 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 2: a blowout and Detroit couldn't get anything going. 671 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, you alluded to that Ravens first quarter spread. Result, 672 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens have now outscored opponents fifty five to six, 673 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: crazy through seven games. It's incredible. So just keep that 674 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: in mind for Ravens first quarter spreads. But the Jared Goffing, 675 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: I want to expand on that a little bit more 676 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: because since the start of last year, and really since 677 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: the middle of last year, where the Lions have almost 678 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: been anointed as this up and coming team, I think 679 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: it just we could buckle it down right down to 680 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: home and away splits as much as it's more inside 681 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: outside because when he's at home, we see the spread. 682 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: He's the most profitable quarterback at home over the probably 683 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 1: in the last few years. But same thing. His stats 684 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: reflect that too, thirty touchdowns to ten or receptions since 685 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: the start of last year at home. But then you 686 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: look at his road splits and it's about ten to ten. 687 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: It's about one touchdown for every interception. His completion percentage drops, 688 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,919 Speaker 1: his yards drops. It's not something that we're just making 689 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: up out of the blue. This is something that is 690 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: really happening. And I think we kind of got lost 691 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: in track of that because of the game that they 692 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 1: had against the Packers earlier this season. But Lamar, you 693 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: alluded to it as well, just with MVP odds. He 694 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,240 Speaker 1: looked like MVP today, like first half seventeen for twenty 695 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: one from the field, three touchdowns, he ran for a touchdown, 696 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: you know, and the Lions they looked away like they 697 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: were out of it immediately, mental mistakes. Really, what this 698 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: game reminded me of is Cowboys forty nine ers from 699 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago when he was just laid 700 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: it dead and the forty nine ers were pretty much 701 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: just on top of them immediately. 702 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 2: To me, that's interesting. Ravens nine point one yards per 703 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 2: play today against the Detroit That is the highest in 704 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 2: franchise history. Couldn't find another game Baltimore had that high. 705 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 2: So one of the best offensive games you've ever seen 706 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 2: in Baltimore. And I think a lot of people might 707 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: look at Detroit as a bounce back next week, so 708 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 2: at home Monday night football against the Raiders, where I 709 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 2: don't think we know you know, the Raiders quarterback situation yet. 710 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 2: It could be Koyer, could be Garoppolo. But interesting thing 711 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 2: is goff eight and twelve and one straight up after 712 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 2: a loss with Detroit. So hasn't been just that simple. 713 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 2: So we'll see, all right. 714 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: Now, Falcons Buccaneers, This one we won't take too much 715 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: time on. But again, I really just want to talk 716 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: about how awful Desmond ridder is as a quarterback. Even 717 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: though the Falcons do win sixteen to thirteen and win 718 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 1: on the road, Bucks do not cover hiss home favorites 719 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: as two and a half point home favorites with the 720 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: over under at thirty seven and a half. Desmond Ridder Man, 721 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk a little bit more about his 722 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: stats in a second, but from an atspov four to 723 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: zero against the spread versus the a NFC South in 724 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 1: his career oh and seven against the spread against any other. 725 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 2: Team, this is like such an impossible game to watch 726 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,800 Speaker 2: if you had money on either side. No team wanted 727 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 2: to win, no quarterback, no wanted to win, and the 728 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: you know, the winner of the game and led the 729 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 2: NFC South. So it was just very infuriating. I think 730 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: I probably prefer Baker Mayfield. Then I do dismon Desmond 731 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 2: Ritter right now I think Mayfield. 732 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 4: Yeah. 733 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 2: It's just like, and the thing is, when you look 734 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 2: at that the rest of that division, those are probably 735 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: your best teams. Like we just saw Derek Carr fall apart. Again, 736 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 2: Carolina hasn't had a win yet. It's just you're gonna 737 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 2: find one of these teams in the playoffs. Atlanta seems 738 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: to have the best pieces, but a quarterback that can't 739 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,280 Speaker 2: stop fumbling over himself. 740 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: And I mean the best pieces. They won't even let 741 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: be Jon Robinson on the field, Like, I mean, I 742 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: know that he was sick. 743 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, what was he said? 744 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 1: That to me is a big story from this game 745 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: because he was not on the injury report. There were 746 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: no mentions of him being injured or anything like that. 747 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: And then we're sitting there in the first half and like, Okay, 748 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: where's Bijon Tyler Algiers getting all the carries? Cornell Robert 749 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: Patterson rather is coming in here, and I just was 750 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: getting really confused. They did clarify later on, but again, 751 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 1: why are you spending such high picks on Jon and 752 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts, and just those kinds of picks like that 753 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: is really what sets a franchise back if you're not 754 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: going to use them. And then you have Desmond Ritter 755 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 1: who is in scoring position and gets stripsacked twice. Two 756 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: Falcons touchdowns called back and overturned at the goal line. 757 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: It's like you alluded to this. It's off of football 758 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: to watch, and it's even worse to bet on. So 759 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 1: you know, to me, I don't really want to talk 760 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: too much more about the Falcons, Bucks, so please end 761 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: it for me so we can move on to the 762 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: next game. 763 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm good, aside for the fact that Atlanta plays 764 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 2: Tennessee next week, Tennessee coming off of bye, I have 765 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 2: no idea what to make of that game. I think 766 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 2: it's a pick him for a reason. And Tampa Bay 767 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: and Buffalo Thursday night football. I think that's a lot 768 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 2: of points. I mean, maybe Baker can cover this. It's 769 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 2: like seven and a half right now. Look ahead was ten, so. 770 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, And the way that Baker's been throwing the ball, 771 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 1: I mean he still was able to complete a touchdown 772 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: to Mike Evans who's probably the best wide receiver he's 773 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,399 Speaker 1: ever played with in his career. So they still look 774 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: like they have a connection. They might be able to 775 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: exploit that on that Bill's secondary. All right, Cardinals Seahawks. 776 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: Seahawks win twenty to ten. They do cover as nine 777 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: and a half point favorites, even though their star wide 778 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: receiver DK Metcalf did get ruled out just before kickoff. 779 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: Did not move the line at all. I don't think 780 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: it needed to, but the over under was at forty 781 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: four and a half. The total did go under. But 782 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: this feisty Cardinals team, man, they are always in the game. 783 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 1: Seahawks up seventeen to ten, they look like they're about 784 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: to go up twenty four to ten, and then you 785 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: see this Geno interception in the red zone plus one 786 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: eighty in interception by the way, thank you for that, 787 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: and then a Gdo fumble in the fourth quarter. But 788 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 1: the Cardinals get three turnovers and they only get three 789 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: points out of it. To me, that was the story 790 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 1: of the game. And they gave up that late field 791 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:57,879 Speaker 1: goal to give the Seahawks the cover. 792 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, just a frustrating if you had Seattle, They're just 793 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 2: it just never should have been this close. Gino made 794 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 2: multiple mistakes and it just was sloppy. Overall, Arizona hasn't 795 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 2: looked the same over the last few weeks. You know, 796 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 2: I believe they started three and zero against the spread 797 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 2: and since then just can't find any anything on offense. 798 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 2: Uh here's a fun nugget I looked up. So Cardinals 799 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 2: won the turnover battle three zero in this game, and 800 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 2: they were nine point underdogs. So teams is seven point 801 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: underdogs are higher who were plus three or better in 802 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 2: the turnover battle. Where one hundred and sixty five six 803 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 2: and three against the spread in the wildcard era since 804 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,359 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety. So this loss from Arizona's point of view 805 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,399 Speaker 2: is just you need to point, You need to figure 806 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 2: out a way to get some points on the board. 807 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 2: You got three lucky balls on your side, didn't turn 808 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 2: over the ball, and you still couldn't muster it. So 809 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 2: just a just a brutal game. 810 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: And now the Seahawks coming up there two and a 811 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: half point favorites hosting Cleveland. We don't know whether or 812 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: not Deshaun Watson's gonna play, probably not, probably gonna be. PJ. 813 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 1: Walker would be shocked to see if that line stays 814 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 1: at two and a half, might go up to three 815 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: three and a half depending on the quarterback situation for 816 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: Cleveland Steers Rams. Nice little outright win by the Steelers 817 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: on the road. They win twenty four to seventeen, with 818 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: the Rams being three point home favorites. The total does 819 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: go under a forty four. I mean, Pickett finally looked 820 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: impressive in an NFL game the preseason that doesn't count 821 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,720 Speaker 1: like this is an actual NFL game. He actually looked impressive. 822 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: And this is a very convincing fourth quarter drive. It 823 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: was seventeen seventeen. Tie drolled them down the field for 824 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: a touchdown. But really the story for me, and maybe 825 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: I'm just as a jaded Cowboys fan, I'm glad the 826 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 1: Rams got to have the full Brett Maher experience. So 827 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: two miss field goals, missed extra point, it's pretty much 828 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: the difference in the score pretty much. Once he missed 829 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: that extra point where they were gonna go up ten 830 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: to three, and then he missed the extra point, I 831 00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 1: knew it was gonna be a bad day for him 832 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 1: and now the Steelers. Though, something to keep in mind 833 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: if you're ever seeing them maybe trailing at half they've 834 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: been down in multiple first halves this season have come 835 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: back to win, so games that they weren't favored in either, 836 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,439 Speaker 1: like the Browns Ravens and the Rams game now where 837 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,359 Speaker 1: they've been trailing at half and come back to win. 838 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: But TJ. Watt we talked about Miles Garrett and that 839 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: Browns game, TJ. Watt with an unreal interception to set 840 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: up a Steelers touchdown. But I think another story that 841 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: was really a big takeaway for me from this game was, 842 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: and it's been ongoing, is how the Rams have really 843 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: no home field advantage when they're playing a very popular team. 844 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: It really felt like it was a home game for 845 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: the Steelers. Like when Jalen Warren scored that touchdown, you 846 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,839 Speaker 1: would have thought it was heinz Field with that loud cheer. 847 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,839 Speaker 2: And the thing that's funny was is that you give 848 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 2: Tomlin like certain things on the road. Like here's a 849 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 2: fun stat I looked up before we came on, so 850 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 2: Pickett's only thrown one interception his last six road games. 851 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 2: It's just really hard to beat Tomlin when not turning 852 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 2: over the ball, playing decent defense. You know, Maher's kicking 853 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 2: it all over the place. Like you're giving him free points. 854 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: They're gonna probably find a way. And then everyone's favorite 855 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 2: dog stat. So Tomlin now forty seven forty five straight out, 856 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 2: fifty seven, thirty one and four against a spread as 857 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 2: an underdog in his career. And then Matt Stafford, he 858 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 2: just figured out a way again this morning on convinced me. 859 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 2: I gave out this stat and it ended up actually 860 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 2: coming through. So Rams led nine to three at the 861 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 2: half and ended up losing twenty four to seventeen. So 862 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 2: Stafford now is thirty one, fifty six and two against 863 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 2: a second half spread when leaving when leading. He's lost 864 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 2: nine straight regular season games in this spot, so just 865 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 2: absolutely brutal. They just and he's about five hundred across 866 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 2: the board second half ats when he's trailing, but for 867 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 2: some reason can't come up with the offense. And here 868 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 2: it was a mess. They had multiple opportunities to kind 869 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 2: of lock it away, yep, and Pittsburgh found a way 870 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,879 Speaker 2: in the end. The fun one year is also road 871 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 2: Unders in these games, good defense and they just figure 872 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 2: out a way to go right under it. Eighty fifty 873 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 2: nine and one for Tomlin road Unders, best of any coach. Wow, 874 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 2: fifty five and one last decade. Wow, just wild stuff. 875 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,319 Speaker 2: And then the thing you're gonna hear about all week 876 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 2: again is just the wild numbers from Pookah Pooka Nakula. 877 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, Pooka Nakula man wild. I think the main thing 878 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: that I would take away from that is the Rams 879 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: to me might have overtaken the Steelers as the best team. 880 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: With I with like an eye on wide receiver talent 881 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,359 Speaker 1: late in the draft, Cooper Cup was a third fourth 882 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: round pick. Pooka Nakua, same thing. He looks like a 883 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 1: top five wide receiver right now. Clearly was picking up 884 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 1: the slack because they completely shut down Cooper Cup two 885 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 1: catches for twenty nine yards. He had nine catches for 886 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 1: like one hundred and fifty yards. Just looked incredible. Uh, 887 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: with the rookie out of BYU, I've got a few 888 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,760 Speaker 1: games left, let's run through these quick Raiders Bears. Bears 889 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 1: went thirty to twelve, one of the few overs of 890 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: the day, and the Raiders lose as road favorites as 891 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 1: two and a half point favorites, because honestly, I was shocked. 892 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: Dev and Brian Hoyer hadn't been a road favorite since 893 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen with the Browns, and all I could think 894 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: to myself is imagine making Brian Hoyer a road favorite 895 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three. Like what league is this? So 896 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 1: I think McDaniels is probably gonna get fired soon. Aidan 897 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: O'Connell comes in Raiders immediately score a touchdown. He's all 898 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: cage in the press postgame press conference about how this 899 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 1: isn't pre season anymore. You know, Jimmy Garoppolo is expected 900 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,719 Speaker 1: next week. But another takeaway too, Tyson Baijeen. They said 901 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: on the broadcast that he won the Division two Heisman 902 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 1: Trophy for out of his school. But you look pretty 903 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,240 Speaker 1: good justin fields. He might be out of a job, 904 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 1: you know, as the season goes. But at the same time, 905 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 1: they've got a lot of invested in justin fields. But 906 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 1: it's good to know that Tyson Baje could come in 907 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 1: and look like a competent quarterback. Commanders Giants. Giants went 908 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 1: fourteen to seven total goes under a thirty seven, but 909 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: the Commanders lose I right as three point favorites. Giants 910 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 1: are now eight and two against the spread in their 911 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 1: last ten games versus the Commanders, and yeah, the Sam 912 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 1: Sam Howe. The sack numbers, Evan, please elaborate. You tweeted 913 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,240 Speaker 1: about this earlier. It is getting out of control. 914 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe right now he has forty sacks. He 915 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:30,879 Speaker 2: had six today and he is three off pace through 916 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 2: seven games. And it's you know, every time you see 917 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 2: this list, it's David Carr, Sam Howell, David Carr so 918 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 2: two thousand and five, two thousand and two with the Texans. 919 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 2: But six sacks today against a Giants team who doesn't 920 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:44,840 Speaker 2: get pressure. 921 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: Oh boy, the Giants come into this game they only 922 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,959 Speaker 1: had five sacks for the season. Well, they had five 923 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,760 Speaker 1: sacks in the first half. Like, that's how crappy right now? 924 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 1: This Commander's offensive line is Yeah. Let's wrap this up though. 925 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:01,359 Speaker 1: Packers Broncos probably the snows of the day. Broncos win 926 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,839 Speaker 1: nineteen to seventeen, but the Packers do lose his one 927 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 1: point favorites. This game flipped back and forth between Packers 928 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: and Broncos all week going through zero, but the underhits 929 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 1: of forty five. I'll be honest with you, Evan, I 930 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 1: feel like Kevin Harlan was trying to make this game 931 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 1: more exciting than it actually was because the court and 932 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 1: Sutton he catches this touchdown, you would have thought it 933 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 1: was a Kobe Bryant dunk from two thousand and three. Like, 934 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: ah just sucked the gravity out of the building. Like 935 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: that's what it felt like. It was just like it 936 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 1: was just a regular touchdown. Obviously a good touchdown, but 937 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,919 Speaker 1: like this game was awful really, Like the only other 938 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 1: notable thing to take away from this game is the 939 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 1: Broncos quarterback Kareem Jackson. He should probably be thrown out 940 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: of the league at this point, man, because this is 941 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,240 Speaker 1: the fourth time this season that he's got a defensive 942 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,840 Speaker 1: defenseless player penalty and it has been thrown out of 943 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: two games now. It's kind of getting out of control. 944 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of pac Man Jones back 945 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 1: in the day. But yeah, that's probably the biggest takeaway 946 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 1: is that the Broncos do win and they had to 947 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 1: almost capitate a guy to do it. The fall season 948 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 1: is in full swing, which means if you're like us, 949 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: you're busy watching football, you might be so busy you're 950 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: looking for more convenient meals ready to eat in just 951 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 1: two minutes, and that's where factor comes in.

All right, now 964 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna check in with Patrick Everson with Vegas Insider 965 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: to see how Sportsbook's fair to Las Vegas for week seven. 966 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 1: Thanks a lot, Jill. 967 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was another interesting day in Las Vegas, and 968 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 4: not necessarily on the better's side of the betting window. 969 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 4: I had one odds maker tell me as the Bills 970 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 4: game was unwinding against the Patriots and he was talking 971 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,359 Speaker 4: about the Kansas City Chiefs game. He's like, we've got 972 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 4: tons of moneyline parlays running to the Chiefs. We are 973 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 4: going to need the Chargers in that game really good, 974 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 4: unless Buffalo doesn't come back and win this game against 975 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:34,279 Speaker 4: the Patriots. Buffalo came back, got the lead, did not 976 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 4: win the game against the Patriots, though, so that blew 977 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 4: up tons of not only moneyline parlays, but also teasers 978 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 4: as well that were running to Buffalo. So that was 979 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,880 Speaker 4: a big result behind the counter for most books, including 980 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 4: bet MGM, which was seeing pretty hefty action on Buffalo. 981 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 1: So BETMGM down did well to that. 982 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 4: Several other odds makers noted that they did do well 983 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 4: to that, But there's always an exception to the rule, 984 00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:00,080 Speaker 4: and we had one odds maker here in Vegas all 985 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 4: time oddsmaker said, believe it or not, we had a 986 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 4: lot of money on the dog on the Patriots in 987 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 4: that Buffalo game. 988 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 2: He said. 989 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 4: It wound up being okay with the Bills losing out right, 990 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 4: he said, but if the Bills had come back and 991 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 4: won but not covered, which is how it was looking, 992 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 4: it might shake out near the end there, he said, we. 993 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: Would have lost. 994 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,319 Speaker 4: He said, I just got flooded with dog money. We 995 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 4: needed the favorite, which was definitely an unusual situation. But 996 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,160 Speaker 4: it goes to show that it's not always the same 997 00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 4: at every book. Yes, the public tends to be on 998 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 4: certain teams heavily from week to week to week, but 999 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,479 Speaker 4: every now and then there's some variants from one book 1000 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,360 Speaker 4: to another. And in this case, an odds maker actually 1001 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 4: would have done pretty poorly if the Bills had managed 1002 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 4: to win but not cover there did okay to the 1003 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 4: Bills losing, but not as good as some of these 1004 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 4: other books who were literally raving about this win. And 1005 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 4: speaking of raving, let's go to the Ravens who just 1006 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 4: whitewashed the Detroit Lions today. Detroit is the public darling, now. 1007 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 4: I mean, this is a team that went into Week 1008 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 4: seven over the last sixteen regular season games, which is 1009 00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 4: their last sixteen games because they didn't make the playoffs, 1010 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,360 Speaker 4: thirteen and three straight up, fourteen and two against a spread, 1011 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 4: just absolute scorching hot and atm for betters and got hammered, 1012 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 4: just ran into a bus saw at Baltimore. That was 1013 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 4: another really good result behind the counter for most books, 1014 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 4: because again, the public has definitely been on Detroit, liking 1015 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 4: Detroit a lot, probably going to be on them again 1016 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 4: in Week eight I'll get to that in a little 1017 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 4: bit here. So those were a couple of results early 1018 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 4: that definitely went very much in the books favor the 1019 00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 4: Chiefs game. Obviously, the public's going to be all over 1020 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 4: the Chiefs, so the public did well there. But the 1021 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 4: Chiefs were in moneyline parleys and teasers that probably evolved 1022 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 4: or were connected to, I should say that Bills game. 1023 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 4: So a lot of the as I noted earlier, a 1024 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 4: lot of the Chiefs money line parley's and teasers got 1025 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 4: blown up, even though the Chiefs covered and had not 1026 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 4: too much trouble winning against the Chargers in that late window. 1027 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 4: This night game, it's been really interesting the Sunday night 1028 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:55,800 Speaker 4: game between the Eagles and the Dolphins. Two really great teams, 1029 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 4: two very public teams, and there were multiple books saying 1030 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 4: they got a really good two way action BEDAMGM was 1031 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 4: in an interesting spot. Seemed heavy to the Eagles on 1032 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 4: the spread and to the Dolphins on the money line. 1033 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 4: So perhaps ideally, especially with moneyline teasers and parlay's, probably 1034 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,080 Speaker 4: getting blown up by the time you got Sunday night, 1035 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 4: or perhaps getting blown up maybe in the situation that's 1036 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 4: not unusual, and that's where they need the favorite to 1037 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 4: win and the underdog to cover, so that maybe the 1038 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 4: position they ended up in there Monday night. Look, you're 1039 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 4: not going to get people out the forty nine ers, 1040 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:31,279 Speaker 4: even with that loss last week at Cleveland, and I 1041 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 4: know earlier on you know, on Sunday at betam Gym. 1042 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 4: Most of the money comes in on this game on Monday, 1043 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 4: but it was very heavy spread tickets and money at 1044 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:43,120 Speaker 4: least percentage wise, very heavy to the forty nine ers, 1045 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 4: not hesitating to pull the trigger even though no Deebo 1046 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 4: Samuel and Christian McCaffrey perhaps maybe a little bit limited, 1047 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 4: but it looks like he's going to go. So they're 1048 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 4: certainly going to be Vikings fans tomorrow night. And bonus everybody, 1049 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 4: we'd get to look ahead to next week because you know, 1050 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 4: the NFL stopped for nobody, and obviously the odds are 1051 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 4: already up for NFL Week eight. I think the one 1052 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 4: thing that's interesting coming out of the gate, it's not 1053 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:10,319 Speaker 4: the most intriguing game, although I believe it is a 1054 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,200 Speaker 4: primetime game. I think in fact, it might be the 1055 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:16,280 Speaker 4: Monday night game between the Raiders and the and the Lions, 1056 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 4: and that is that the Lions after getting decimated by 1057 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 4: Baltimore thirty eight to six and the Raiders completely embarrassing 1058 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 4: loss to a quarterback nobody has ever heard of. The 1059 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 4: Lions opened seven and this is already on the move 1060 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:30,919 Speaker 4: you on Sunday night, this went from seven to seven 1061 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 4: and a half. With one odds maker that I spoke 1062 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 4: with and he termed it one way traffic on the Lions, 1063 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 4: and he says, I don't expect this to change as 1064 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 4: Detroit is a very public team. And even though they 1065 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 4: got blown out, so did the Raiders, and the Raiders 1066 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 4: did so against a much worse team. Everybody agrees that 1067 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,239 Speaker 4: Baltimore is a pretty good outfleit, so that's the one 1068 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 4: gem to look at. Already, some early movement on that 1069 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,439 Speaker 4: game in the week eight odds market Lions from seven 1070 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:55,280 Speaker 4: to seven and a half. 1071 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 1: Early throw it back to you, Jille, thanks a lot, 1072 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,279 Speaker 1: Thank you Patrick, and thank you for listening to the 1073 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 1: Action Network podcast presented by bet MGM.
