1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,600 Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to betting pros. 2 00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 2: It's time to place your bets to this meet Joey Pig, 3 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 2: joe Pisapia. 4 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: And Week fifteen was a doozy. Oh my goodness. 5 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 2: We had the greatest comeback in NFL history in a 6 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 2: regular season. We had one of the wackiest endings we'll 7 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 2: ever see in a football game between the Las Vegas 8 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 2: Raiders and the New England Patriots. And then you had 9 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: Sunday Night Football and on what was I would call 10 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: the textbook PI call that did not get called. 11 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 1: It was crazy. 12 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 2: There was weather, there was snow, there were comebacks, they 13 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: were upsets as well. How about those Jacksonville Jaguars, Baby 14 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. 15 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: Let's go. 16 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 2: But we're going to break that all down for Week 17 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: sixteen and what that means to look ahead at these 18 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: early lines, what we saw, what it means, and the 19 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 2: guys helped me do it, of course, Pat fitz Morris 20 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: and Matthew Friedman. So we're going to get after that. 21 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: Before we do, gentlemen, we've got one more game. It's 22 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: Monday Night Football and Pat it's the Packers, obviously your 23 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: squad here hosting the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are 24 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 2: four nine, the Packers are five and eight. Seven point 25 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 2: favorites are green Bay will see coming up the buye 26 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 2: what they've got. Thirty nine and a half is the 27 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 2: number for this one. If you like the Rams for 28 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 2: the upset, it's plus two to sixty on the money line. 29 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 1: Pat, let's break this down. Any value left on this 30 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: game tonight or anything specifically you're looking to wager on. 31 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 3: I think there is, Joe, I don't like the Rams 32 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 3: for the upset. The Rams got the Mayfield miracle in 33 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 3: week fifteen? Was that Week fifteen or Week fourteenth? 34 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: Sorry? 35 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: To avoid their eighth straight loss. So, like, the Rams 36 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 3: are not a good team. They're averaging sixteen point six 37 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 3: points a game this season. They're not gonna have Aaron 38 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 3: Donald for this. They're defensive stalwarts. It's going to be 39 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 3: fifteen degrees at kickoff for this game. I don't see 40 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 3: the Rams bad offense functioning at a high level. And 41 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: that sort of weather, and we talked about this a 42 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 3: little on the live stream yesterday, Joe Friedman and I 43 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: like when you get that kind of weather in Green Bay, 44 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 3: the Packers are really used to this. And even though 45 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: the field has these heating coils underneath, like they're certain 46 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: type of cleats that you wear for different temperatures and 47 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 3: different field conditions. And like the Packers' equipment guys are 48 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 3: used to all this, they know what the story is. 49 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: The Rams equipment guys are not going to like know 50 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 3: these things. Like it's much harder to prepare for those 51 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 3: types of conditions if you're a warm weather team and 52 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 3: just not used to dealing with this at all. So 53 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 3: I do think there's value here, you know, I slam 54 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 3: the Packers at seven points, and I'm glad that it 55 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 3: dropped from seven and a half, you know, getting it 56 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 3: at that key number. 57 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 4: But yeah, I just. 58 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 3: I'm certainly not overly confident in the Packers, as you know, Joe, 59 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 3: but I like them a lot in this spot against 60 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 3: a really depleted Rams team of a really punchless offense. 61 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 2: Matthew Freeman, you and I are going to break this 62 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: game down later this afternoon on the live stream, But 63 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: for me, this is Christian Watson at plus one forty 64 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 2: anytime touchdown scorer, and then that's it. I'm just putting 65 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 2: some money down on that and I'm walking away from it. 66 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: Any quick hits on this game before we move on 67 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: to the look ahead for Week sixteen. 68 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't hate anytime touchdown score. And I just 69 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 5: got to say, you know, we have a Packer's defense 70 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 5: that wants to run the ball. They're at home, coming 71 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 5: off of the buy, going against a defense that is 72 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 5: bad anyway and missing like the entirety of the interior 73 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 5: of its defensive line. Like this is just a great 74 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 5: spot for the Packers. And Sean McVay, you know, the 75 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 5: warm weather Dome coach zero to five against the spread 76 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 5: in conditions where the temperature is less than forty degrees. 77 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 5: I think this is very much a Packer spot. That said, 78 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 5: it does feel disgusting to be betting them at any 79 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 5: sort of margin, but I have this projected at minus nine. 80 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: Now, lots of look ahead weather to come here as 81 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 2: we break down the games.

Oh baby, let's go. Joey p was very 91 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: happy about this Jacksonville upsetting the Dallas Cowboys. I'm sorry 92 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 2: for even you know, ear muffs. But the New York 93 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: Jets will be hosting them this week. They are two 94 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: point favorites at home. We're not sure if it's gonna 95 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 2: be Zach Wilson or Mike White at this point. A 96 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: close game there for the Lions Jets, but Jacksonville is 97 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 2: certainly looking like they're playing their best football on offense 98 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: and on defense. Trevor Lawrence looks like he is finally 99 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 2: coming into his own forty two is the number plus 100 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: one zero six Friedman, let's start here with you. Jacksonville 101 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: is on a roll here. Can they continue to do this? 102 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 2: Traveling up to cold weather in New York? 103 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I wouldn't surprise if this line actually did close 104 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 5: with Jacksonville favored. I have it projected, and I'll just 105 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 5: this is gonna be a kind of common theme throughout 106 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 5: the rest of the show where I have a lot 107 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 5: of the p pretty in line with the market. It's 108 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 5: that point of the year. Like last year, I think 109 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 5: some of the last week, rather, I think some of 110 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 5: the biggest edges had to do in the games where 111 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: we had backup quarterbacks and so the market wasn't quite 112 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,559 Speaker 5: gauging accurately the difference between the backup and the starter. 113 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 5: That's where most of the edges were. This week we 114 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 5: don't have many of those situations, and Week sixteen, the 115 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 5: market has a pretty good sense of what all of 116 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 5: these teams are. So yeah, this number right now is 117 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 5: plus one across the board, plus one at bet MGM. 118 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 5: I have it at plus one for the Jags. But 119 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 5: just because as you mentioned, how great they have played, 120 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 5: the momentum that the Jags have in the market, I 121 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 5: would think that this number flips towards the Jags. 122 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: I would absolutely do it if there's any number to 123 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 2: jump on here, and they early look ahead this first game. 124 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: It's a short week two. 125 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: That's the only thing you're getting here, so that is 126 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: the only thing comes into play. Sometimes it's tough for 127 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: the short week the team that's traveling. That being said, 128 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: it's also less time for Mike White to get cleared. Yeah, 129 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: he is clearly the better quarterback. So Pat, what do 130 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 2: you make of his game? 131 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 5: Here? 132 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 2: Is this another one you're kind of where we are 133 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: where we're jumping on this one early? 134 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is less time for Mike White to get 135 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 3: clear Joe and Zach Wilson though, averaged nine point one 136 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 3: yards per pass attempt and had his second three hundred 137 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 3: yard game of his career yesterday, So he wasn't what's. 138 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 5: That it was not? It was not a good Zach Wilson. 139 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 2: That's one where you're watching the lines and not the 140 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: game on that one, because I know there was some 141 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 2: bad throws of that game. 142 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 3: Some of the completions were you know, heaves that found 143 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: their way in again Wilson's spread basket thirty thirty five 144 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 3: yards downfield. So I understand, I'm not trying to sell 145 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 3: you on Zach Wilson, and I'm. 146 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: Not getting a quarter here, that's for sure. 147 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. 148 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 3: So I'm not really going to sell you on the 149 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 3: over either, because weather conditions are going to probably factor 150 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 3: into this one. Right now, I've got it at forty 151 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 3: and a half instead of thirty nine and a half. 152 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 3: But I'm not inclined about that, especially with Zach Wilson 153 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: likely to get another start here. The Jaguars did roll 154 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: up over five hundred yards of offense on the Cowboys, though, 155 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 3: That is really impressive, and they ran the ball up 156 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 3: between the tackles like effectively for the first time in 157 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 3: a long time. So this offense is really humming going 158 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: against an excellent defense that had Quinn Williams play. There 159 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 3: was some question about whether the Jets wrecking ball defensive 160 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 3: tackle was going to play yesterday. He did play, So 161 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 3: I can't wait to see that matchup of the Jaguars 162 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 3: offense and the Jets defense. But as just to echo 163 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 3: what Friedman said, and this will be a recurring theme, 164 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 3: trying to get early value from these lines is like 165 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 3: trying to squeeze blood from a turn up. It's just 166 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 3: not there this week. 167 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: Well you're gonna laugh about this one, guys, because I'm 168 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: looking at FANDUL right now as we're talking, and the 169 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: Jags are now minus one and a half there while 170 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: we were having this conversation, so they obviously listened to 171 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: the show live. But on top of which it's plus 172 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: one hundred, So I just bet it real quick there 173 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: because they're getting plus money on that, which is something 174 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: you know, I ever really. 175 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 4: See very often. 176 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: So could be an error, could be a mistake, could 177 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: just be as they're fluctuating through things. 178 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: But I locked it in. So there you go. Good times. 179 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: That's why you listen to the show here, folks, that's 180 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: what you're trying to do. Let's get to the next 181 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 2: game on the board here. The New York Giants coming 182 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: off a big victory, questionable one going against the Minnesota Vikings. Now, 183 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikings, this game is on Saturday, everybody, so 184 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: they are the champions of Saturday. The Minnesota Vikings are 185 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: unbelievable on Saturdays, folks. 186 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: Just look. 187 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: I don't know what there is to say else about 188 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: that game, except the only question that lingers now is 189 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 2: after you play such an emotional game like that, is 190 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: there a letdown? And if so, is this the kind 191 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: of team that you should not look past? In the 192 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 2: New York Football Giants. Are they kind of team that 193 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 2: you look ahead there on the Saturday afternoon and you 194 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 2: say to yourself, Yeah, I don't know if this is 195 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: necessarily the next way you want to go about this year? 196 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: And do you want to get in early here on 197 00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: either of these things. 198 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 2: Here, because Pat, when we start to look at this 199 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: line here three and a half for Minnesota, they're at home, 200 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: Giants are traveling. 201 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: Thibodeau is great. Forty seven and a half is the 202 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: number plus one sixty five on the money lines of Pat. 203 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: Any early value on this game for you, Oh. 204 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 3: Man, I don't think there is, Joe. I mean, like, 205 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 3: is there an emotional letdown for the Vikings? Maybe, but 206 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 3: I'm sure they're just going to do what the Vikings 207 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 3: always do, which is scuff around and then find a 208 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 3: way to win a one score game. Every time we're 209 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 3: ready to just completely stamp them as a fraud, which 210 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: again on Saturday it looked like we were very would 211 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 3: have been very justified in doing. Then they just storm back. 212 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't like betting the Vikings at this point, 213 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: just because like they're one of these inexplicable teams that 214 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 3: sort of defies all all of the metrics, like to 215 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 3: have that record and you know, to be in the 216 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 3: twenties in Dboa, it's just something extraordinary is going on 217 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 3: with that team this season. So as far as the value, though, 218 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: like my initial run of projections, I have this like 219 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 3: half a point of value on the under. But man, 220 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 3: the last six Vikings games have produced sixty three, forty three, 221 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 3: fifty nine, forty nine, fifty seven, and seventy five points, 222 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 3: and six of their last eight at how them have 223 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 3: gone over. So I'm pretty much ripping up the projections 224 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 3: in this and you know it might even might even 225 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 3: take the over on it. 226 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 2: Well, they've been this team in the past that's always 227 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: lost these close games or had these heartbreaking losses, and 228 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 2: it seems like everything this year is the opposite. Finally, 229 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: like carm has kind of caught up to them. This 230 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: game has moved those was looking at yesterday four and 231 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: a half yesterday before the game is and today obviously 232 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 2: a different number we're seeing. We're seeing the three and 233 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 2: a half. So it's moved a whole point. For do 234 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: you see this moving anymore? 235 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, to your point, and the look ahead, this was 236 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 5: four and a half, it opened to four. Now it's 237 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 5: three and a half this morning. It might continue to 238 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 5: move like people like. The market generally does not like 239 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 5: the Vikings and it does like the Giants, and so 240 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 5: maybe it hits three, but I think if it hits 241 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 5: three at that point Vikings. Money comes in and it 242 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 5: meets resistance and goes back to three and a half. 243 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 5: So I think three and a half ultimately will be 244 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 5: the number. I actually I don't like it, but I 245 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 5: have value is this is one of the few spots 246 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 5: where I do have value on a team, the Vikings here. 247 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 5: I have this projected at five point twenty five, and 248 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 5: I didn't adjust them up in the Power ratings after 249 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 5: last week, Like it wasn't a good performance that they had. 250 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 5: Great that they were able to come back, but I 251 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 5: don't think they really get credit for that, Like you 252 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 5: shouldn't be down by thirty three points to the lowly Colts. 253 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 5: The Giants, they get a little bit of credit for 254 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 5: beating Washington, but you still have in this spot the 255 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 5: Vikings at home, the Vikings with a full week of 256 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 5: rest because they played last week on Saturday, you know, 257 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 5: the Giants playing on Sunday night football, so like six 258 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 5: days but a short six days. I think the advantage 259 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 5: here actually is with the Vikings. That's it. I haven't 260 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 5: met it yet because I just don't really trust it. 261 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 5: I don't want to be on the Vikings, but eventually 262 00:11:58,679 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 5: I think I'm gonna bet this. 263 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 4: May I reject for a moment here, Joe. 264 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 3: So I've like had that same I don't know, Friedman, 265 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: some of these lines of late with the Vikings seemed disrespectful, 266 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 3: like everyone was like, why are they. 267 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 4: And then last. 268 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: Week against it like I didn't really buy it. I 269 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: understood the Lions line, but then I saw the line 270 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: for the Colts, and you know, I took it at 271 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 3: three and a half because I thought that was disrespectful. 272 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 3: I got the Vikings at three and a half, and 273 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 3: you know it turned out to be pretty spot on. 274 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 5: Pretty yeah. 275 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: So I'm just every time I think I see this 276 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 3: line and I'm like, wow, even though I think the 277 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 3: Vikings are frauds, that seems really disrespectful, and then it 278 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 3: winds up not being disrespectful at all. So you know, 279 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: I do have that urge every time I see a 280 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 3: Vikings line, like I feel like the Viking should be 281 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 3: favored by more at home. 282 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 4: But then you know, I just like, I can't do it. 283 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 4: I can't do it with this team. 284 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: The Baltimore Ravens will be home hosting the Atlanta Falcons. 285 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 2: This one started out at six and a half right now. 286 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 2: Currently in the consensus on bettingpros dot Com nine to 287 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: five of the Ravens. They have all sorts of offensive 288 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 2: problems here the Atlanta Falcons five and nine. 289 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: Desmen Ritter was you know, driving there at the end. 290 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: Unfortunately Drake London couldn't hold onto the football, So alas, 291 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,319 Speaker 2: we'll never know what might have come of that drive. 292 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 2: But forty is the number for this one plus two 293 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: forty on the money line for the Atlanta Falcons fits. 294 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: Let's talk about this one for a second, because it 295 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 1: feels as though, you know, the Baltimore Ravens are I 296 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: would say treading water right now. 297 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 2: I think that's the best way to put it. That 298 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 2: they don't necessarily look great. The defense, you know, has 299 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 2: this moments, but offensively they have just been a mess 300 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: for what seems like two months now. So is this 301 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 2: just as simple as yeah, the Falcons coming towns to 302 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 2: get right game, or is this another dangerous game here 303 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: where maybe that's seven is too big of a number. 304 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: Maybe Baltimore still should be the favorite, Maybe they should 305 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 2: win at least seven point favorites with the way offensive 306 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 2: way they operate right now. 307 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: I've been giving the Ravens way too much credit in 308 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 3: recent weeks show, and you know, like I have enjoyed 309 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 3: betting the raven at home for a long time and 310 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 3: it's generally been profitable. In this instance, I still want 311 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: to grab the Ravens at minus seven, hoping that Lamar 312 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 3: Jackson comes back this week from his spraying pcl and 313 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 3: even if he doesn't come back, I still think there's 314 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 3: a chance that they can outclass the Falcons, even though 315 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 3: they really stumbled around on offense against the Browns, just 316 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: could not get anything going. But Desmond Rider clearly is 317 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 3: not ready for primetime. I mean, he was thirteen of 318 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: twenty six for ninety seven yards at three point seven 319 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 3: yards per past at ten. 320 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 4: And he was sacked four times. So you know, the Falcons. 321 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 3: Ran the ball effectively, very effectively against the Saints yesterday, 322 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: but I don't think they're going to do that. 323 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 4: Against the Ravens in Baltimore. 324 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm willing to make the leap of faith 325 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 3: here at the touchdown, get it before it goes up 326 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 3: at all on any possible positive Lamar Jackson news, and 327 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 3: feel like I have a reasonable chance to win that 328 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: that even if Lamar doesn't come back this week. 329 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: Friedman with the way Atlanta likes run on the football too, 330 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: and the lack of offense from Baltimore is the under 331 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: just the safest number here in the forty and just 332 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: stay away from the seven all together. 333 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 5: Maybe, I mean, I have this actually projected to the over. 334 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 5: But the thing is a lot of my projections aren't 335 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 5: strongly taking into account the weather, and so I know, 336 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 5: like these projections aren't They're not bettable the way that 337 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 5: I would want them to be, And I actually I 338 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 5: think there is value on the seven. In fact, I 339 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 5: think at points bet that's where the one six and 340 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 5: a half is remaining, and I would probably go bet 341 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 5: that right now. I am assuming that Lamar Jackson comes back. 342 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 5: But even if he's not, Yeah, Desmond Ritter looked really 343 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 5: bad last week, like there's a reason why they weren't 344 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 5: inserting him into the starting lineup sooner. And this Falcons 345 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 5: offense is entirely ground based, and they're going against now 346 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 5: with Roquan Smith on the Ravens, one of the best 347 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 5: run defenses in the league. And so if they have 348 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 5: a rookie quarterback who really can't do much through the air, 349 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 5: if they're not able to function on offense at peak capacity, 350 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 5: because they're running into the teeth and the defense. I 351 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 5: still think even if Tyler Huntley is out there, the 352 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 5: Ravens are probably able to cover. So yeah, I think 353 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 5: I'm probably going to be on the Ravens here, but 354 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 5: I haven't bet it yet. 355 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: Greatest team in the history of the universe of the 356 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 2: Detroit Lions. We're now seven and seven. That's right, everybody. 357 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: They were two and a half point favorites. Now they're 358 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: three point favorites this morning going into Carolina. Carolina is 359 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 2: five and nine. They are three point home underdogs. Forty 360 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: four and a half is the number for this one 361 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: plus one thirty if for the Carolina Panthers and the 362 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: upset now Friedman, We've been watching the Lions a long time, 363 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: all three of us. This is definitely, I was one 364 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: of the most enjoyable Lions teams we've ever seen in 365 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 2: our lifetime. 366 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: They are fun to watch, they're fun to root for. 367 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: But that being said, is this a classic Lions spot 368 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: here where you should go in there and just blow 369 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 2: the doors off. The Carolina Panthers, who aren't a great 370 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 2: football team but defensively do have some players here. And 371 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 2: we know Jared Goff, you know, outside, not the same 372 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: quarterback inside. We've seen the stats, we've seen the numbers, 373 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 2: we've seen the offense. We even saw it on Sunday. 374 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 2: Are you confident here with the Detroit Lions and this 375 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 2: number right now? 376 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 5: I mean confident? I don't know, but I bet it. 377 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 5: You know that's a yes, then yeah. I betted a 378 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 5: two and a half, you know, in the look ahead 379 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 5: because I just you know, my numbers just tend to 380 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 5: be high on the Lions, and I thought this number 381 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 5: probably would get to three, which it has, but I 382 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 5: still see value at the three. I have it projected 383 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 5: at four point twenty five. And yeah, as you mentioned, 384 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 5: Goff historically hasn't been great outside of the Dome. But 385 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 5: at least I don't think he's going to be in 386 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 5: some of those like weather apocalypse games that we'll probably 387 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 5: see across the slate, like in Carolina. I mean, it'll 388 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 5: be colder, the weather's not going to be great, but 389 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 5: it's not as if I think we're going to see 390 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 5: like wins of twenty miles per hour or something like 391 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 5: that in Carolina. So I don't think the weather's going 392 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 5: to be a major factor for the Lions. I mean, 393 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 5: what we've seen out of them over the past last 394 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 5: six weeks has been pretty incredible, especially offensively. But their 395 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 5: defense is also, like here and there, starting to toughen 396 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 5: up a little bit. So as long as it's not 397 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 5: like the worst unit in the league, then that team 398 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 5: is pretty intriguing. And going against a team that I 399 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 5: consider I mean, Sam Darnold is their starting quarterback for 400 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 5: the Panthers, Like, let's not pretend that they are a 401 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 5: good team. They're a bad team. They're one of the 402 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 5: five worst teams in the league. So yeah, I think 403 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 5: even on the road, the Lions should be favored by 404 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 5: more than three points here. 405 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 2: They do have five wins, though, just saying somehow they 406 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 2: eked out five with varying different quarterbacks. By the way, 407 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 2: the one thing, though Carolina Ducks are on the football 408 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 2: and the one thing the Lions have started to do 409 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 2: is tighten up in the last six weeks against that run. 410 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: So does that make this three a little bit more 411 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 1: palatable for you? 412 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: Fits? 413 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 4: That's what I was going to get to, Joe. 414 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: The run defense, Like the Lions have gone from being 415 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 3: a sieve against the run to actually being pretty stout 416 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 3: in the last four or five weeks. And meanwhile, the 417 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 3: Panthers running game was completely stuck in the mud. Yesterday 418 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 3: against the Steelers. They ran sixteen times for twenty one yards. 419 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 3: Could not get anything going against the Steelers on the ground. 420 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 3: And if you take away the Panthers running game, that 421 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: leaves Sam Darnold to try to win you the game. 422 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 4: Lots of luck with that. 423 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, And we know. 424 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: That the Lions have a lot of firepower on offense, 425 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 3: and maybe they don't display it quite as often when 426 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 3: they're outside. But as Friedman mentioned, probably not going to 427 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 3: get terribly inclement weather in Charlotte on Sunday, so you know, 428 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 3: maybe it's a little I don't know, maybe a little 429 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 3: chillier than it would be in the Dome. But I think, yeah, 430 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 3: I'm inclined to bet the Lions here. 431 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a hot taker now, guys, 432 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 2: but I feel like, you know, when you're looking at 433 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 2: the Lions, what are their huge strengths is their depth 434 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: on offense. They're one of the deepest offensive teams. You know, 435 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 2: three guys are capable running the football. You've got a 436 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: bunch of wide receivers who are capable. It just I 437 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: don't know I mean, so the tight end have a 438 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 2: big touchdown yesterday at the end of the game. It's 439 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 2: sort of it looks to me like this is the 440 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 2: time of year where a lot of teams are banging 441 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: up a lot of you know, but the depth is 442 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 2: really what's been carrying them these last few weeks into 443 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: these wins because they have such a deep offensive roster. 444 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: Credit to the GM for putting this team together. All right, 445 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: let's got. 446 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 5: Great offensive line too, realrific. 447 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 2: Penny School was such a smart pick for them when 448 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: they picked it like that was that was a very 449 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 2: disciplined smart pick. 450 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: They did that a couple of years ago. Good on them. 451 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: You're one hundred percent right. The old line is playing 452 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: great football too. The Buffalo Bills won another closed one here. 453 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: We expected Buffalo to just dominate. Well, the lines telling 454 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: you they expect them to dominate in this game here 455 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: against the Chicago Bears. They're on the road. This wasn't ten. 456 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: It moved to nine, which I thought was just slightly curious. 457 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 2: I mean, Buffalo did win that football game against the Dolphins, 458 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,479 Speaker 2: who are a pretty good football team themselves. Forty one 459 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: is the number plus three forty on the money line. 460 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 2: For the Chicago Bears. Freeman, let's start with you with 461 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 2: this one with the Chicago Bears. Here, why do you 462 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 2: think this one moved from ten to nine. I don't 463 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: understand that personally. I mean, I understand that the Bears 464 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 2: kind of hung around with the Eagles. I don't think 465 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 2: when you watch that game, you came away like the 466 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: Bears can compete necessarily with some of the top teams 467 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 2: in the NFL. 468 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 5: Yeah. I think it's a few reasons. So one is that, 469 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 5: like the Bears, we did see them just get a 470 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 5: cover against one of the best teams in the league. 471 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 5: The Bills have struggled to cover this year, like they've 472 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 5: had a great team, but they don't have like the 473 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 5: killer where they just put bad teams away. They kind 474 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 5: of let them hang around a little bit and get 475 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 5: the cover. And then part of it, I think a 476 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 5: big part of it is the potential weather issues. And 477 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 5: so if the total is dropping, that just means fewer 478 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 5: overall points are going to be scored, and so it 479 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 5: doesn't make sense for the Bills to be favored by 480 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 5: like nine and a half ten. They should probably. 481 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: Say, precipitously to your point forty five and a half yesterday, 482 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: forty one today. 483 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, and so I still I mean, I still like 484 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,360 Speaker 5: the Bills. I still have this projected at ten. And 485 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 5: I believe this line is eight at FanDuel. So I 486 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 5: think that is a betable line. 487 00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: You are correct on FANDL. It is it? 488 00:21:59,520 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 5: Adam? 489 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 2: Looking at that right now fits your thoughts on Bears 490 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 2: and Bills here. Do you see any value as this 491 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 2: number starts to disintegrate a little bit? 492 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 3: I don't because I think the weather is what's affecting 493 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 3: this line, Joe. They are forecasting eleven degrees for temperature 494 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 3: at all twenty eight mile an hour wins, so it's 495 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 3: going to be sub zero wind chill slash fields like temperatures. 496 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: And this is going to be a theme with a 497 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 3: lot of these games that we're about to talk about, 498 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 3: Like I'm almost inclined to make a sweeping bet where 499 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 3: I treat this like a fund and bet something on 500 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: the under in every Midwestern and East Coast game. And 501 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 3: it's gonna be worse in the Midwest like we're supposed to. 502 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 3: And this arctic blast we're getting here in Chicago. I'm 503 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 3: in the Chicago area. It's going to come on the 504 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 3: heels of like eight to twenty five inches of snow 505 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 3: on Thursday and Friday, Like we are about to get 506 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 3: slammed with a Christmas storm here and you know, followed 507 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 3: by this Arctic plunge on the weekend. So it's gonna 508 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 3: be really interesting weather, and I think it's going to 509 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 3: be really ground based, and like people were really concerned 510 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 3: about what the weather was going to be like in 511 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 3: Buffalo on Saturday night with the snow and everything. This 512 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 3: is the Buffalo weather game here, except it's in Chicago, 513 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 3: not in Buffalo. 514 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: Christmas Slam, Arctic Plunge. Also Mountain Dew flavors later could 515 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: be released in twenty twenty three. So all I'm hearing. 516 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 2: Though, by the way, is the over on Justin Field's 517 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 2: rushing props when you're talking. 518 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 1: That's all. 519 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 2: As you're saying these weathers, all I'm thinking to myself 520 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 2: of like, what's that number? Yeah, I'm gonna go over it. 521 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 2: Maybe for Josh Allen too in that same game. Let's 522 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 2: get to the next one here, New Orleans and Cleveland. Now, 523 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 2: this one has the Cleveland Browns favored by three. At home, 524 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,959 Speaker 2: they came out with a victory. Not surprised at all 525 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 2: that they won that game against the Ravens. Side of 526 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 2: the truth, thirty four and a half is the over 527 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 2: under another gross horrible low total, another midwestern ish kind 528 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: of game here plus one fifty on the money line. 529 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: If you like the Saints fits, what do you see 530 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 2: in this year? If any early value. 531 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 3: I'm seeing a little bit of value on the Browns 532 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 3: because the weather in Cleveland is supposed to be even 533 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 3: worse than the weather in Chicago. Snow showers possible in Cleveland, 534 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 3: and thirty five mile an hour wins and that sustained wins. 535 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 3: No one is passing in that. And Joe, I am 536 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 3: like the biggest fade the weather guy you will find 537 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 3: in betting and fantasy. I am not fading thirty five 538 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 3: mile an hour sustained wins, like offenses will not passing. 539 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 4: Games will not. 540 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 3: Be able to function in thirty five mile an hour wins. 541 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 3: It just won't happen. So who's better built to win 542 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 3: a game where you are forced to run the ball 543 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 3: like ninety percent of the time. 544 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 4: I think it's the. 545 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 3: Browns with their running game with Nick Chubb and Kareem 546 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 3: Hunt against a Saints team that was just carved up 547 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 3: on the ground by Tyler Algier and Cordero Patterson. The 548 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 3: Browns running game isn't great either, as I think Friedman 549 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 3: was getting ready to interject, But I still think, yeah, 550 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 3: I think a running only game favors the Browns here. 551 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: All right, So if it's a run fest over here 552 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: in Cleveland, is that how you see things as well? 553 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 5: For even I, I don't disagree with what Fitz just 554 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 5: said in terms of the weather, but I'm actually like, 555 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 5: I'm gonna take a stand on this game. It's probably stupid, 556 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 5: but I actually like the Saints here. I think I 557 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 5: think it's a Taysom Hill game, like Deshaun Watson, like Dome, 558 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 5: Like Dome Deshaun Watson. I don't think he's really settled 559 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 5: into the elements. I think the Saints have the perfect 560 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 5: type of quarterback who plays tight end. But I think 561 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 5: it's gonna be a Taysom Hill, running down your throat 562 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 5: type of game, and so I think like he gets 563 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 5: a lot of run, and I honestly, I'm I'm taking 564 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 5: the over like this hit thirty four last night. I'm 565 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 5: just like no, Like I just I put my foot down. 566 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 5: I was like, no, I know there's gonna be weather. 567 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 5: But weatherman are sometimes wrong. Sometimes weather gets overblown. And 568 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 5: thirty four is just too low of a number for 569 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 5: an NFL game, and it has bumped up a little 570 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 5: to thirty four and a half thirty five, and I'm 571 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 5: probably wrong. But so I'm at this point officially rooting 572 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 5: for the over, and I'm I'm on the Saints. I'm 573 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 5: probably wrong on the Saints. Like fits your I think 574 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 5: you are on the sharper side on the spread because 575 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 5: I betted at three and a half and it's continued 576 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 5: to move towards towards the Browns. Uh, so you know 577 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 5: it's anyway. I don't know. I don't know. 578 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: I made fascinating to take sure. I just want to 579 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: get a fascinating take about Deshaun Watson the elements, because 580 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: if the Cleveland Browns got us of a quarterback, you 581 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: can't play in the elements. 582 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 2: This is not a good investment. I'm just putting that 583 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: out like I've never even thought about that. I don't 584 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 2: know if it's the rust or it is the weather. 585 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 2: What's going on with him? Obviously maybe a combination of both. 586 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: Go ahead, fits. 587 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Friedman might be right, Joe like Taysom Hill 588 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 3: might be the perfect quarterback for this, and I kind 589 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 3: of didn't even think about the Taysom. 590 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: Hill Hill shares end you got him, let's go. 591 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 3: But this, this reminds me of the game when you know. 592 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 3: And I was telling Friedman about this while it was 593 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 3: happening maybe a month to go on a Saturday where 594 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 3: Iowa was playing Minnesota in Big Ten football, and the 595 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 3: total was like thirty one and a half or thirty two, 596 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 3: and I'm like, I gotta. 597 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 4: Bet the over on this. 598 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 3: And it was a really windy day in the Midwest 599 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 3: and it was looking good for a while and then 600 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 3: completely spluttered out in the game and finished with a 601 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 3: total of under thirty. So it's one of those where 602 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 3: I just I don't think I can defy the weather 603 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 3: conditions and two offenses that maybe you know, the passing 604 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 3: games are super sharp to begin with. 605 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 5: I just I want to say one more time. We 606 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 5: are a week out and I know, like weather prediction 607 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 5: has gotten a lot better in the last twenty years, 608 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 5: but we're still about a week away from these games. 609 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 5: It feels like it wouldn't take much like oh, the 610 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 5: win came a day early and then all of a 611 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 5: sudden not much wind, you know, like I think a 612 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 5: lot can change if we're if we were two days away, 613 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 5: I would feel much more confident in having weather based 614 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 5: total predictions. 615 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 4: This is a big system. I'm not fating the meteorologists here. 616 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: See, we should have had Jim Cantore on the show. 617 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: We should have had a channel having a puffy coat 618 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 1: talking to us about the football games. 619 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 2: Another team besides the Bills that seems to have a 620 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 2: problem kind of putting their foot on team, so to speak, 621 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 2: is the Kansaity Chiefs. 622 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: They are ten point favors. 623 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 2: This one did move up from nine and a half 624 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: to ten against the Seattle Seahawks. They're going to be 625 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 2: traveling to Kansas City. Forty nine and a half is 626 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 2: a number plus three seventy on the money line on 627 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 2: the Seahawks. But fits Kansaity Chiefs keep on, you know, 628 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 2: letting teams hang around. They don't seem to have that 629 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 2: killer instinct either. And that being said, it feels like 630 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: the good time story of the Seahawks is starting to 631 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 2: crumble right in front of our faces. Do you feel 632 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: like that combination leads to maybe this nine, this ten, 633 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 2: depending on where you're betting it and a forty nine 634 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 2: and a half. 635 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 3: You couldn't have framed it any better, Joan. This combination 636 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 3: leads me to want to just stay away from this game. 637 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 3: Like I am swearing, I'm swearing off the Chiefs is 638 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 3: a big favorite. I just do not want to bet 639 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 3: them as a big favorite anymore. 640 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 2: Well, maybe we should learn something from it because every 641 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: time they're a big favorite. Maybe this is the perfect 642 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 2: opportunity to take Seattle here because it's grown to ten 643 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 2: nine and a half overnight. 644 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: But the Seahawks are oh and to five against the 645 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 3: spread in their last five games. 646 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: They are traveling, yeah, oh and five in. 647 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: Their last five December games, going to the Midwest where 648 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 3: they are not going to get the crazy wind in 649 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 3: Kansas City. Apparently they're saying eleven mile an hour wins, 650 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 3: but it's gonna be eleven degrees. It's gonna be chiley 651 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 3: in Kansas City. So maybe not great Seahawks weather. 652 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 2: Here, all right, Well, the Seahawks do like to run 653 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: the football, that's for sure, so maybe that will carry 654 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: itself over. Not a great game obviously against San Francisco 655 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 2: last week, But for what are your thoughts on this one? 656 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 2: Is the line too big. 657 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 5: Yes, but I still bet it, you know, like I 658 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 5: feel like right, No, I've been early like I was 659 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 5: early on. Oh, the Chiefs aren't the type of team 660 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 5: that's covering big spreads. But the thing is like two things. One, 661 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 5: my numbers still haven't adjusted enough for that, so I 662 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 5: always see value on them. And then two, always in 663 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 5: the look ahead market, I see this line and I 664 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 5: think that's gonna move, And the thing is, I'm right, 665 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 5: I'm getting the closing line value. And then I'm still 666 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 5: losing the bets, which is it's just like the most 667 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 5: painful thing. So like I just need to stop betting 668 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 5: on the Chiefs. But this week I betted at nine 669 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 5: and a half. I probably wouldn't take it at ten, 670 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 5: but my projection is twelve, so I don't know, I'm 671 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 5: probably wrong. Like I know, historically the Chiefs haven't done 672 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 5: what they needed to do in this spot. But this 673 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 5: week I'm still on the Chiefs. 674 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: Okay, still on the Chiefs. 675 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 2: The next one here, the Cincinnati Bengals are now ten 676 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: and four, and I gotta tell you, guys, I almost 677 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: bet this last week. I was kind of waiting to 678 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 2: see one more game here. How they handle themself against Tampa. 679 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 2: But if you ask me right now, I feel like 680 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals are the most dangerous team in the AFC. 681 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: I can't put my finger on why. 682 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 2: Necessarily, it's just the feeling of, you know, like you 683 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: see a team that's able to come out with the 684 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 2: victories when they need them. Joe Burrow seems to be 685 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 2: that big game quarterback, and Cincinnati Bengals handle their business 686 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 2: like the Chiefs or the Bills sometimes like they actually 687 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 2: do put teams away defensively, starting to play better despite 688 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 2: the losses on the corner. Let's talk about this game 689 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 2: here because clearly thing Patriots are seven and six, but 690 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 2: this is not a good seven. 691 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: I mean this is I was seven and seven now, 692 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: but this is not, you know, a good football team. 693 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: Let's be honest. 694 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: The defense has its moments, the offense, you know, they 695 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: are just completely one dimensional. At this point three and 696 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: a half point underdogs, the Patriots are. I don't think 697 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: that's a big enough number. I'm gonna be honest with you. 698 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 2: Forty is the over under plus one fifty five on 699 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 2: the money line. 700 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: If you like the Pats. I don't Friedman, I think 701 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: this should be a bigger number. 702 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 2: I think that the Cincinnati Bengals are going to go 703 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 2: into New England and give them a good old fashioned whoopin. 704 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: What do you think about this game? 705 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I instinctively agree with you. This number was three 706 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 5: in the look ahead market and I saw it then 707 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 5: I was like, you know what, I wish, I wish 708 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 5: I would have bet it, But it's three and a 709 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 5: half now it's moved to four at bet MGM. I 710 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 5: have this projected at three, but I don't feel good 711 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 5: at all about that projection. And part of it is 712 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 5: all of the injuries that the Bengals are dealing with 713 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 5: right now, like that is still captured within my projection. 714 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 5: Edge Trey Hendrickson is, you know, out with a wrist injury. 715 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 5: I doubt he plays this week. And then we also 716 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 5: saw in last week's game edge Sam Hubbard leaf, so 717 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 5: they are pretty pretty wounded on the defensive line. Obviously, 718 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 5: Chiuna Bay Woozy is out, and then Mike Kilton was 719 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 5: out last week, so that without two of their starters 720 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 5: at cornerback and without two of their backups at cornerback 721 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 5: because Jalen Davis was out and then Cam Taylor Britton 722 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 5: went out in the middle of the game, so like 723 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 5: and then Hayden Hurst, but you know whatever, Like those 724 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 5: defensive injuries are not insignificant, and so I doubt that 725 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 5: the Patriots actually can exploit those injuries, but they are 726 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 5: still there and that is what is holding down the 727 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 5: projection for me on the Bengals. 728 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 2: And I understand and look, the Uzia injury certainly has 729 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 2: been one that's left a big gaping hole where Eli 730 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 2: Apple has to be the number one corner again, and 731 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 2: that's never a good situation. But that's a team that 732 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 2: still went to the super Bowl with that circumstance last 733 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 2: year and really had a chance to win at the end. 734 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: Fits like all those things that Friedman center are correct. 735 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 2: I just don't think that the Patriots the in the day, 736 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,719 Speaker 2: like he put it, can take advantage of them right now. 737 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: And I know they're coming off a very stinging loss. 738 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: Special teams played terrible. This is a sloppier New England 739 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 2: team that we've seen before. They make mistakes, usually mistake 740 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 2: free football as a Patriot way, that's not been the 741 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 2: case the last couple of years. 742 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that, Joe, and like Friedman, I 743 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 3: have this projected as minus three for the Bengals, and 744 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 3: there's no way I am betting or I'm not betting 745 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 3: the home underdog here. And even though like the Hilton 746 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 3: and Hendrickson injuries like those are so big, with the 747 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 3: Bengals already missing a Woozy and now they've got their 748 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 3: two top corners out and the guy who can raise 749 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 3: the most havoc with the pass rush to try to 750 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 3: make things easier on the cornerbacks who are left, and 751 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 3: those guys are out of commission, so not insignificant, and 752 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 3: that's pretty much why my projection is where it is. 753 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 3: But I mean, the Bengals have been so good against 754 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 3: the number eleven and three on the season against the spread, 755 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 3: and they've won six straight, covered six straight, have not 756 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,320 Speaker 3: lost or failed to cover since Halloween. 757 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 4: And you know, Joe, you kind of said it here like. 758 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, like even though they came out so flat against 759 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 3: the Buccaneers, uh, just completely dysfunctional on offense at the 760 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 3: start of that game, all of a sudden, they just 761 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 3: got it together, just flattened the Buccaneers. They did, and 762 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 3: you know, like not a bad defense, and they just 763 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 3: like got their act together and just completely overwhelmed the Bocks. 764 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 2: The Patriots have not played a lot of good teams 765 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 2: though too. I mean if you're looking back at the 766 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 2: schedule too. 767 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: I mean they've played the Steelers, you know, they've played 768 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:44,880 Speaker 1: no offense. 769 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 2: The Packers not a great football team this year. They 770 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 2: caught the Lions when the Lions were really down. They 771 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: played the Browns without you know, they's so Jacoby Brissett Browns, 772 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 2: not that Deshaun Watson Browns have been great. They've probably 773 00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 2: been worse somewise offensively. But then they've struggled even against 774 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 2: teams like the Bears. They played close games against the Jets. 775 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 2: I mean, this is I think we have a false 776 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 2: sense of security on some of that Patriots covering at 777 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 2: home confidence kind of thing that normally I'd be all 778 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 2: over with you, but I just I don't think this 779 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 2: team is any good. I just don't rein it is. 780 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 4: Yeah. 781 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,720 Speaker 3: I was just going to say they were going into yesterday, 782 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 3: they were five and two against teams with the losing 783 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 3: records and you know, drop a game they maybe should 784 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 3: not have dropped against the. 785 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 4: Poppy Raiders. 786 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's a problem. 787 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 5: Go ahead for Yeah, one final thing on on the Bengals, 788 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 5: like Joe Burrow has been like a road warrior. I 789 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 5: think he's something like fourteen and seven or maybe even 790 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 5: more than that against the spread on the road for 791 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 5: his career. Like on the road, he just absolutely balls out. 792 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 5: I don't know what it is, maybe just some random split, 793 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 5: but the normal road disadvantage that some teams have the 794 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 5: Bengals haven't had with Burrow. 795 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: The Bengals, by the way, to win the AFC went 796 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: from plus six fifty to plus five one hundred overnight. 797 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: Throwing that out there, two boys and girls, just in 798 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: case you're interested in where things are moving, because last 799 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: year this kind of happened too, and I put a 800 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: lot of money on the Bengals and I was very 801 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: happy about that. 802 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 2: Let's get to the next game here, the Tennessee Titans, though, 803 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 2: boy oh boy, I think they're just not going well 804 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 2: for the Titans last few weeks. This was eight and 805 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 2: a half, now it is seven. They are seven point 806 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 2: favorites at home against the Houston Texans. Thirty nine and a 807 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: half is the number plus two sixty on the money line. 808 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 2: I know it sounds crazy here, Pat, but I kind 809 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: of want to be on the Texan side of this game. 810 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 4: Me too, Joe. 811 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 3: The Titans are officially broken four straight losses fifteen and 812 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 3: a half points a game over that stretch. And Houston 813 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 3: meanwhile almost beat the Cowboys in Week fourteen and almost 814 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs in Week fifteen. Like, I can't take 815 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 3: the Titans here. 816 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, another defensively, they. 817 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 3: Have another weather game. By the way, twenty three degrees 818 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 3: seventeen mile an hour wins in Nashville. 819 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 1: Well, it's not like tennis. 820 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 2: You can throw the football anyway, Friedman, your thoughts here 821 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 2: in this game with me and fits? Are you just 822 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 2: feeling crazy here? You want to go in with us 823 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,439 Speaker 2: on the Houston Texans, the one win team. 824 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not betting the Texans, but I really 825 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 5: don't want to bet against them either. I have this 826 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 5: projected at seven. Sorry, I haven't projected at eight. So 827 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 5: in theory, I'm showing value on the Titans at seven. 828 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 5: But it's not as if I'm betting it. I'm I'm 829 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 5: probably not going to bet it. As Fitz said, their 830 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 5: defense is totally broken. The number of injuries that they 831 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 5: have on that side of the ball is just it's comical, 832 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 5: Like it's it's like something that you would see in 833 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 5: a Fairly Brothers movie, Like they are just so injured 834 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 5: and they're like there aren't reinforcements coming. Some of these 835 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 5: guys are not returning. And you know, Treylon Burk's their 836 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 5: their main receiver on offense, like he's dealing with an injury. 837 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 5: The only like positive situation is that, uh chig a 838 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 5: Conquo is like looking like an actual stud Titan. Like 839 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 5: it's probably not he feels like albert Oh, like in 840 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 5: a couple of years, we're just gonna be like, I 841 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 5: can't believe I was so invested in a Conquo, like 842 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 5: my my, Like I feel that. 843 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: He's done more already in his career than albert O did. 844 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,959 Speaker 2: I don't know, Like and they give him, ay, givem 845 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 2: a carry yesterday, dude, you see that? 846 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:09,240 Speaker 1: And that was fun? 847 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 5: I know. I love that he is john new Smith 848 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 5: or like Delaney Walker. He's like in that mold of 849 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 5: Titans tight end. 850 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, like Johnny Smith. That was fun. That was a 851 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: good time. I remember that. All right, let's go to 852 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers ten and excuse me, 853 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 1: eleven and four now, uh no, wait, I remember right 854 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 1: the first time we're ten and four here. The Washington 855 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: Commanders is gonna come into San Francisco. 856 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 2: It's be fifteen, folks, sixteen now, I mean, come on, 857 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: we're just hanging out by a threat. The San Francisco 858 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: forty nine ers seven point home favorites here against the 859 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 2: Washington Commanders. Forty and a half is the number for 860 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 2: this one plus two sixty on the money line. If 861 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 2: you like Washington Freeman, I gotta tell you this one's 862 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 2: a little surprising here. I know it started out at 863 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 2: six and a half and moved to seven, But despite 864 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 2: all that, I feel like San Francisco should be more 865 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 2: of a favorite in this game, despite Rock Purdy. I'm 866 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 2: just gonna put that, like, despite that, it feels like 867 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 2: they're just a much better football team. 868 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 1: What's Vegas seeing that? I'm not? 869 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, this was six and a half in 870 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 5: the look ahead. I think it was six and a 871 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 5: half when it opened early, but it has moved to 872 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 5: seven seven and a half even at FANDUL, I would 873 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 5: expect this line to continue to move. I haven't projected 874 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,800 Speaker 5: at seven and a half. I hate betting Kyle Shanahan 875 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 5: as a home favorite. That's just like something I intuitively 876 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 5: hate doing He's been horrible in that situation. But I 877 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 5: still bet them at six and a half because I 878 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 5: think they should be on the other side of seven. 879 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 5: And yeah, you're right. I mean I think the market, 880 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 5: the market has liked the Commanders more than maybe maybe 881 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 5: more than he should warranted. Yeah, And so I think 882 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 5: that is popping into it. And some of it is 883 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 5: a little bit of like Rock Party hesitation, and I've 884 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 5: been hesitant about Party. But I did bump based on 885 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 5: what they did last week. I did bump the forty 886 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 5: nine Ers up pretty significantly in the power ratings because, yeah, 887 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 5: like I have a lot of respect for what Garoppolo 888 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 5: did in that offense over the past half decade, but 889 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 5: it looks like they're able to replicate some of that 890 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 5: with Rockferdy and with the weapons that they have around 891 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 5: and the defense especially. 892 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 2: That's enough, Yeah, right, I mean for a team that's 893 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,399 Speaker 2: limited what they could do offensively, when you take away 894 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 2: the run game like that and you put everything on 895 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: Taylor Heineke, I think it just mistakes Central potentially. 896 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 5: That's the probably look. Just to put a little perspective 897 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 5: on it, this is a Commanders team that hasn't been 898 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,759 Speaker 5: able to beat the Giants over the last three weeks, right, 899 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 5: and now they're going on the road across country and 900 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 5: beating the forty nine ers. 901 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,240 Speaker 2: Like, no, that's what I'm talking about, And that's fits 902 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 2: a conversation I want to have, which is, you know, 903 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 2: you can't put away the Giants twice, and now you're 904 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 2: gonna go to San Francisco and you're gonna keep this close. 905 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 1: Look. 906 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 2: I understand it's Rock Perdy. I understand it's the third 907 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 2: string Quarterbrec. 908 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,240 Speaker 1: I get all of that. But at the same time, 909 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: I mean there's a real tough sell to see them 910 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: go across the country and beat the forty nine ers 911 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: by you know, or cover the seven early for me. 912 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 3: Tug a war for me here, Joe, You've got that factor. 913 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 3: Like I wonder what sort of headspace the Commanders are 914 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 3: in having gone all one and one against the Giants team. Uh, 915 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 3: you know when I thought and I'm sure they thought 916 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 3: they were the better team. 917 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 4: So that's got to. 918 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 3: Be staggering, and now their playoff hopes have been delta 919 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 3: a severe blow with that bad two game stretch against 920 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 3: the Giants. On the other hand, I do feel like 921 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 3: the hesitation to endorse brock Purty is starting to dissipate 922 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 3: a little bit, and should it really be dissipating when 923 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 3: he is about to face Jonathan Allen Montese sweat chase, 924 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:41,280 Speaker 3: Like the Washington defense is uh a serious unit? 925 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 4: Man? 926 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 3: I mean, like, mister irrelevant, better pack a lunch for 927 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,240 Speaker 3: this one because this is not going to be easy 928 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 3: to move the ball against this team. So I just 929 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 3: I'm not inclined to bet either side. I could see 930 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 3: it being maybe. 931 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: Have some moments last night he did basically at. 932 00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 3: The end of the game when they were salting in 933 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 3: a way that that run defense. I don't know if 934 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 3: they were just gassed or what. But yeah, still, man, 935 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 3: this is a really good defense. So I don't know, 936 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 3: maybe a little bit of value on the under of 937 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 3: whether is it really going to be a factor in 938 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:16,800 Speaker 3: this one one of the few games. Yeah, I'm probably 939 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:18,879 Speaker 3: just not touching this game, all right. 940 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: I want to touch this game. It's Philadelphia Eagles and 941 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys. The Dallas Cowboys are one point favorites 942 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 2: at home. This is absurd. Fifty one and a half 943 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 2: is the number. 944 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sorry, like minus one oh five for the 945 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: Eagles on the money line. 946 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 2: The Eagles should be three and a half point favorites 947 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 2: at least in this game. In my opinion, I think this. 948 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: Is just flat out wrong. Sorry. 949 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 2: I've watched this Dallas Cowboy team the last couple of weeks. 950 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 2: I've watched the mistakes from Dak Prescott. I think last 951 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 2: week the Eagles was a little bit of looking ahead 952 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 2: to the Cowboys in this game against the Chicago Bears. 953 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 1: That's why it was as close as it was. I 954 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: think the Eagles are going to go and blow the 955 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: doors off the Cowboys. That's what I'm saying. 956 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 5: Fits. 957 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let that ste for a little bit with 958 00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 2: Matthew Friedman that you take this one first. 959 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. I feel the same way, Joe. 960 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 3: I mean, the Cowboys check engine light is on right now. Yeah, 961 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 3: they almost lost as seventeen point home favorites against the Texans, 962 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 3: and they just got five hundred plus yards rolled up 963 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 3: on them by the Jaguars. And they've got injury problems 964 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 3: at cornerback. You know, I want to see what who's 965 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 3: possibly coming back and who's still going to be out. 966 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 3: But if they could not even come close to stopping 967 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 3: the Jaguars offense, how are they going to stop the 968 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 3: Eagles offense. 969 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 1: I got a Freeman go ahead. The floor is yours. 970 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not disagreeing really with anything that was said. 971 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 5: I mean, I have a bet on the Eagles at 972 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 5: plus one and a half. But I don't think the 973 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 5: Eagles should be favored in this game. But I think 974 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 5: they should be bet. There's there's value on the current 975 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 5: number in the market. Like I have this projected as 976 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 5: Cowboys favored by half a point. I think FITS is 977 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 5: roughly in that same neighborhood. I think FITS maybe has 978 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 5: it as a pick them. So I do think that 979 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 5: there's value on the Eagles in the spot. I don't 980 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 5: think we need to go the distance of them being favored. 981 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 5: But to your point, Joe, it wouldn't surprise me if 982 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 5: this market flipped. I think the market should flip just 983 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 5: based on dynamics and man, I mean the Eagles offensively, 984 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 5: they can get it done throwing and running. The Cowboys 985 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 5: are extremely vulnerable right now in the secondary, missing two starters, 986 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 5: and Trevon Diggs, you know, for for his kind of 987 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 5: like quote unquote ball hawking capability. He is a liability 988 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 5: in coverage because he's always trying to make the big plays, 989 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 5: and the Cowboys are unsettled at safety as well, so 990 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 5: they could really be exploited in this game if the 991 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 5: Eagles just decide and the Eagles one of those few 992 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 5: teams that game plans based on what the defense gives them. 993 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:53,760 Speaker 5: You know, like if the Eagles are in a matchup 994 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 5: where they can run the ball, they just run the 995 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,959 Speaker 5: ball down the other team's throat. Here they are going 996 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 5: to see, oh, this team is bad on defense in 997 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 5: the secondary. That's where we're going to exploit them. And 998 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 5: they can do that with aj Brown and with DeVante 999 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 5: Smith and Dallas Goddard. You bet he's coming back for 1000 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 5: this game. So like that is one thing I haven't 1001 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,720 Speaker 5: taken into account, and the projections of Dallas Goddard returning. 1002 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 5: So yeah, I think the Eagles there is massive upside 1003 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,359 Speaker 5: potential for them to roll the Cowboys because they will 1004 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 5: attack the Cowboys where they're most vulnerable. 1005 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember last year. I remember the Cowboys 1006 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 2: did put a hurting on them right January eighth game. 1007 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 2: I'm looking at fifty one twenty six. I think they're 1008 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 2: going to remember that. Man, They're going to remember that. 1009 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,720 Speaker 2: I think this is a different Eagles team. Las Vegas 1010 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 2: Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers. You guys can have this one. 1011 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 2: I want nothing to do with this one. You guys 1012 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 2: have at it. The Steelers the two point favorites that 1013 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 2: move from one to two. I don't know why you 1014 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 2: can tell me forty and a half is the number 1015 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 2: here plus one ten on the money line. You can 1016 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 2: light your money on fire here, Freeman, for all I can. 1017 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 5: I have nothing to say really about this game projected 1018 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 5: at Pittsburgh favored by minus favorite yea one and a 1019 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 5: half the total whatever. I have nothing to say. I'm 1020 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 5: fine if we go to the next game unless fits 1021 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:11,839 Speaker 5: has something he wants to say. 1022 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 3: I'm juggernauts if I bet any more money against the Raiders, 1023 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:20,319 Speaker 3: like I'm not gonna be able to afford to send my. 1024 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 4: Kids to college. 1025 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 3: Like I really want to bet the Steelers here, but 1026 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 3: it's like every time I think the Raiders are done, 1027 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 3: Like after that horrible loss to the Colts, after that 1028 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 3: horrible loss to Baker Mayfield, with the fourth quarter comeback, 1029 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 3: I'm like, Okay, they're gonna call it quits. And I 1030 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,760 Speaker 3: bet against them and they you know, cover or flat 1031 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 3: out win. So I just I can't do it anymore, Joe. 1032 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 3: They get hit with the tombstone pile driver and then 1033 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 3: kick out, like it's like Adam Sandler Netflix movies, like 1034 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 3: they keep coming, you keep hoping one of them is 1035 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:51,919 Speaker 3: going to work out, and then just they're just the same. 1036 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 5: I feel the same way, except the exact opposite is fits. 1037 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 5: I feel like I can't bet on the Raiders anymore, 1038 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 5: or because I I'm just you know, like I'm traumatized 1039 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 5: by the losses that they've had. We're even with them 1040 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 5: getting a fairly lucky cover in this past week. I'm 1041 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 5: just like, really lucky, I got lucky. I can't, I 1042 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 5: can't do it again. 1043 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 3: Friedman is betting on the Raiders, like for the Jeff 1044 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 3: Saturday game and the Baker Mayfield game, and I'm betting 1045 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,800 Speaker 3: against the Raiders for the games after that. So basically 1046 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 3: Friedman and I are just like, you know, opening our 1047 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 3: wallets and giving everything away on the Raiders. 1048 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 1: A full slate. 1049 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 2: We're gonna hit overdrive here. It's kind of lightning round 1050 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 2: these here. Green Bay and the Miami Dolphins here four 1051 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:37,720 Speaker 2: and a half point favorites. 1052 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: Are the Dolphins that feels about right. 1053 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: Forty six and a half is the number plus one 1054 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 2: seventy five with the money line, Pat, what's your early 1055 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 2: value of any on this game? 1056 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 3: Over last four Packers games have produced fifty nine, forty four, 1057 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 3: seventy three, and forty seven points. 1058 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 4: And yeah, we're not going to. 1059 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 1: Get bad weather in Miami feels about right to me. 1060 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 1: What do you think, Freedman? 1061 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 5: We are on the Dolphins in this game. You know, 1062 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers is his best at home, and the Dolphins 1063 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 5: have a little more rest in this game. Yeah, very 1064 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,359 Speaker 5: much like the Dolphins here. I think I think they 1065 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,280 Speaker 5: are the seventh best team. I think there's a pretty 1066 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 5: clear you know, like however it is that people would 1067 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 5: do their power ratings. You've got the Chiefs, the Bills, 1068 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 5: You've got the Eagles, and then in some combination, I 1069 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 5: think you have Bengals, Cowboys, forty nine Ers. I think 1070 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:30,280 Speaker 5: the number seven team here is the is the Dolphins. 1071 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 1: I think I agree with that. 1072 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Los Angeles Rams hosting the 1073 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos right now. In this game, again we'll wait 1074 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 2: for to nice results, but somehow the Los Angeles Rams 1075 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 2: are one point favorites at home against the Denver Broncos 1076 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 2: thirty five and a half as a number. Who knows 1077 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 2: who'll play quarterback? Friedman, what's your take on this game 1078 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 2: where you just have to wait for more information before 1079 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 2: we could even get close to it. 1080 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 5: I haven't touched it yet, either the side or the total. 1081 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 5: I'm assuming that Russell Wilson comes back, but that's not 1082 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 5: like one hundred percent given as a probability in my projections. 1083 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 5: But I assume he comes back. I assume the Rams 1084 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 5: are still going to be very injured on especially on defense. 1085 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,800 Speaker 5: I have this projected as Denver minus one and a half, 1086 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 5: but I mean, I'm not touching it either way. 1087 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 2: Fits It feels like, you know, this line certainly can 1088 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 2: move depending on what happens to the Rams get their 1089 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 2: doors blown off. 1090 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 1: This is going to become even money very quickly. 1091 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't want to, like, I don't see 1092 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 3: any early value anything. 1093 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 4: I'm trying to get capitalized on based on a change. 1094 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 3: And Merry Christmas from the NFL, by the way, giving 1095 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 3: us Broncos Rams, well, I think. 1096 00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 2: It's a great gift because like the Miami game in 1097 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 2: the morning, well that's fun. It's Christmas morning at one 1098 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 2: o'clock Eastern. You know that's fun, But four thirty is 1099 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,919 Speaker 2: like prime Christmas dinner time and nobody has to watch 1100 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 2: the Rams. 1101 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 3: And good point, by the way, how insane is it 1102 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 3: that this might not be the lowest total on the 1103 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 3: board Broncos Rams, No, because are the. 1104 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,359 Speaker 1: Wet Yeah, that's a good point. 1105 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals four point favorites at home. I'm sorry, four 1106 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 2: point underdogs at home. Pardon me, pardon me? Against the 1107 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 1108 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 1: Oh, the Bucks. 1109 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 2: Forty and a half is the number Christmas Day? Tom 1110 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 2: Brady plus one fifty five. All Tom Brady wants for 1111 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 2: Christmas is a w He just can't seem to get 1112 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 2: it fits. What do you make of this game? 1113 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:12,719 Speaker 4: Here? 1114 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 2: The four point favorites on the road against a Cardinal 1115 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 2: team that they should absolutely handle. But it's one thing 1116 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 2: about the Bucks we've learned is they don't really handle much. Yeah. 1117 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 3: I do not want to invest money in either of 1118 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 3: these teams whatsoever. Can't bet on the Buccaneers at this point. 1119 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 3: And you know, even though this is the Kingsberry narrative says, 1120 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 3: bet that the Cardinals as home dogs. 1121 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 4: Man with their quarterback issues, well. 1122 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,760 Speaker 2: Trace McSorley could be the quarterback for this game possibly, 1123 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 2: So if we get McSorley here, maybe this is the 1124 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 2: four we should jump on early for even what do 1125 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 2: you think? 1126 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I've already bet it and December did this numbers three. 1127 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 5: It's actually still three and a half at bet MGM 1128 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 5: shout out or sponsor, yea, and so get some value there. 1129 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 5: You know, it's four at some spots in the market. 1130 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 5: Actually it's moved to four and a half at FanDuel. 1131 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 5: I think bet it now at them, I have this 1132 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 5: projected at four point seventy five. I am operating largely 1133 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,400 Speaker 5: under the assumption that we do not see Colt McCoy 1134 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 5: in this game. I do think it is Trace mixed early. 1135 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 5: But you know, even if it's Colt McCoy, I don't 1136 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 5: know how much of a difference that actually makes. And 1137 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 5: you know, there's a chance some of the players that 1138 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 5: have been injured for the Buccaneers, we see them come 1139 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 5: back in this game. Quarterback Jamel Dean, multiple edge rushers 1140 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 5: were injured last week and out Vitavea Tristan Works was 1141 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 5: pretty close to returning but didn't play. I think we 1142 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 5: see him on Christmas. So yeah, I am. I'm very 1143 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 5: much on the Buccaneers in this spot. Like I don't 1144 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,560 Speaker 5: like it, but I think there is value there. 1145 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 1: The Indiana and Aapolis Colts are home underdogs three points 1146 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: to the Los Angeles Chargers. They're going to be road 1147 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: favorites in this one. Forty seven and a half is 1148 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: the number plus one forty five. The Chargers stage strong 1149 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,359 Speaker 1: and pulled out a tough game. Look, you know they 1150 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 1: should they in theory have thrown a lot more on 1151 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 1: the Titans and really put up bigger numbers probably, but 1152 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 1: the Titans always they played tough football. They're a tough 1153 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,240 Speaker 1: football team, even with the injuries. 1154 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 2: That being said, the Colts, I don't know how you're 1155 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 2: rebound after this, Friedman, I don't know what you think 1156 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 2: of this game here. 1157 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:11,879 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts? 1158 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 2: The Colts are also going to have some extra days 1159 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,640 Speaker 2: to think about this, which I think is even more 1160 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 2: upsetting for them. 1161 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 1: Your take on Colts and Chargers. 1162 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I actually have this projected at two and a half, 1163 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,760 Speaker 5: which means I'm, in theory showing some value on the Colts. 1164 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,760 Speaker 5: But I think a lot of that is home field 1165 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 5: advantage and the fact that they do have extra time 1166 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 5: to rest, but I don't really want to be on 1167 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 5: this game. 1168 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: Extra time to rest. But also think about being on 1169 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:40,760 Speaker 1: the wrong side yet again of the poor Matt Ryan, 1170 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: Poor poor Matt Ryan. You just shout out, Matt Ryan. 1171 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 5: It's not his fault, it's not his fault. 1172 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 2: I just want to hug him like in Goodwill Hunting 1173 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,280 Speaker 2: and just over and over again say it's not your fault. 1174 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,439 Speaker 1: But fits What do you make of this one here? 1175 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,279 Speaker 2: Because it's another one where the Chargers are certainly the 1176 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 2: better talent team, but the Colts have hung on some 1177 00:52:57,840 --> 00:52:58,720 Speaker 2: of these games lately. 1178 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, how do they Colts regroup from blowing a thirty 1179 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 3: three nothing halftime lead. 1180 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 4: That's what I can't get over. 1181 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 3: And they have no Jonathan Taylor and one of the 1182 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,560 Speaker 3: big reasons they couldn't well, we don't know that. Actually 1183 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say that, because maybe Jonathan Taylor has a 1184 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 3: low ankle sprain and a. 1185 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 1: Come he is unlikely out for the UH he was 1186 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 1: diagnosed with a high ankle sprain on just see that 1187 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,839 Speaker 1: of course on our you know. 1188 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,439 Speaker 2: On our fantasy playbook, my playbook app so of course 1189 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 2: getting all the news there very nice. 1190 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so with no Jonathan Taylor, one of the reasons 1191 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 3: they couldn't hold that thirty three nothing lead was that 1192 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 3: they couldn't really run the ball effectively with that big lead. So, boy, 1193 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 3: even though the Chargers are so up and down, man, 1194 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,439 Speaker 3: I just do not like playing Chargers games this year. 1195 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 4: If anything, I would be. 1196 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 3: Inclined to bet on the Chargers going in and uh, 1197 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 3: you know, beating a team that's got to be down 1198 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 3: trodden at this point. 1199 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,799 Speaker 2: All right, here we go our favorite bets of the 1200 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 2: week of the early look ahead. For me, you know 1201 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 2: what it is is the Jaguars and it's the Eagles. 1202 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,879 Speaker 2: Let's go, uh, Friedman, what are your favorites going into 1203 00:53:59,000 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 2: this week? 1204 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,359 Speaker 5: All right? I still like the Saints. That numbers has 1205 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,239 Speaker 5: moved to plus three. I still like the Saints at 1206 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 5: plus three. 1207 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say saying it eventually comes true. 1208 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 2: I just like the Saints. I just like the Saints. 1209 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,919 Speaker 5: I'm not going to say the over of thirty four 1210 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:16,879 Speaker 5: or thirty four and a half in that game. I'm 1211 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 5: not gonna do it, but that is mighty tempteenth. I 1212 00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,280 Speaker 5: do like the Eagles at plus one and a half. 1213 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 5: I think they do have an edge over the Cowboys, 1214 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 5: and yeah, Tampa Bay minus three and a half at 1215 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 5: bet MGM some value relative to the rest of the market. 1216 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,439 Speaker 5: They're going against Arizona.
