It's me 3 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: Jason McIntyre Straight Fire for Christmas Eve, Thursday, December. It 4 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: will be our last podcast of the week. We're gonna 5 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: actually take some time off enjoy some time with the family. 6 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 1: But before we did that, I wanted to thank you 7 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 1: guys for the commitment that you've made to listen to 8 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: this podcast. Boy, the numbers have been so promising. We're 9 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: very excited. Almost one shows in the books. Uh. The 10 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: guests have been tremendous. You guys have recommended some guests. 11 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: I haven't read all your d m s. I haven't 12 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: read all the comments, but the support has been just overwhelming. 13 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: I'm just so thrilled to have you guys listening, and uh, 14 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: there's a lot of fun. This is just the beginning. Uh, 15 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, one hundred shows nearly done. I think we'll 16 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: probably touch one hundred before the new year. Um, but 17 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: I wanted to give you guys just a quick Christmas podcast. 18 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: Anybody traveling this late in the week or simply annoyed 19 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: with their family enough that they wanted to get away 20 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: for a quick twenty minutes listening to some gambling picks. 21 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: Um and uh, obviously we'll do a little bit on 22 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: James Harden because he's the big name in the news, 23 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: not in a good way, but strip clubs right around 24 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: the holidays, hunt James Harden, Wayne Haskins of the Washington 25 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: Football Club. Uh, just really really bizarre stuff happening in sports. 26 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: To cap off what has been a pretty bizarre year. Um, 27 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,639 Speaker 1: and I guess we'll quickly do a couple of NFL 28 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: games as well. But Christmas Day there is sports. Um, 29 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: outside of the NBA. It's the Vikings and Saints. That's 30 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: a pretty darn good game. Um, I'll have my pick 31 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: for that. Will break down the Christmas Day games. Uh. 32 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: Just a quick thought on the James Harden situation. Um, 33 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: it's getting ugly between the fans and the Houston front 34 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: office and James Harden. You've gotta be pretty hard up 35 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: in your position. They want to get the hell out 36 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: of town. Two in the middle of a pandemic. Just 37 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: roll up no mask too, as you say, support your 38 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: friend who got a promotion at a club, not a 39 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: strip club. James wants to say, but um, no mask. 40 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: He claims he was only there for thirty minutes. It's 41 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: just getting ugly, like you don't do you really need this? 42 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty clear James Harden wants to get 43 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: the hell out of Dodge. We know this now. Can 44 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: the Rockets keep up the good fight and deal with this? 45 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: Because remember Anthony Davis and the Pelicans two years ago, 46 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: I think it was two years ago, got it got ugly, 47 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: got really ugly. He didn't to be there, He demanded 48 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: a trade. He still played. They sat him a little bit, 49 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: and they played him, and then they fans booed him, 50 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: like why put the organization through that. Pelicans are in 51 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: a better place now they got Zion. I don't know 52 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: if the Rockets will be able to find a star. Uh, 53 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: and everybody sending me messages will the Rockets should hold 54 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: out for the best deal they can get. Okay, if 55 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: you're fine with these negative headlines, uh and this negative 56 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: news cycle for the next two three four months, Yeah, 57 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 1: that's fine. It's all damaging your business, becoming a laughing stock. Sure, 58 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: those are good things, but me personally, I'd move on. 59 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: We had windhorsed on the podcast. Um, good stuff from him. 60 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: If you listen closely, it's like Denver Nugget. It's Philly. 61 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: Somebody people want Harden. Get him out of town. Get 62 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: whatever you can and move on. The Only thing better 63 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: than sitting on your couch watching the game. He's making 64 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: money while you do it. Here's your best bat, all 65 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: right quickly? Is mistake game in the NFL. UM. I 66 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: actually kind of like it better than any of the 67 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: NBA games. Yes, even more than Lebron versus Luca. Vikings 68 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: are getting seven in New Orleans, and Um, I think 69 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: you can make a strong case for the Vikings getting 70 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: seven if it hit seven and a half, I'm definitely 71 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: firing on the Vikings. I'm not going to give out 72 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: the side on the best bet, but I'm gonna give 73 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: out the under fifty one and a half. Um, this 74 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: is a tired Saints defense. Do you guys noticed against 75 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: the Chiefs that the New Orleans Saints were on the 76 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: field for forty one minutes ninety two plays. And now 77 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,479 Speaker 1: that that was Sunday, they got to turn back around 78 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: and play on Friday, Christmas Day. Um against the team 79 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: that wants to run the football, and I can just 80 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: see this being a total ball control attack from Mike Zimmer, 81 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: who has won three or four against Sean Payton, including 82 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: in the playoffs last year, and um, listen, it's gonna 83 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: be stomach churning to at Kirk Cousins on Christmas Day. 84 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: That's like the last thing you need your opening presents. 85 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: You're hanging with the fam, you're just enjoying Christmas music, 86 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: maybe watching a movie home alone. Die Hard. No, die 87 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: Hard is not a Christmas movie. Um. And then you 88 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: bet on Kirk Cousins and he throws like a pick 89 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: six and you know you're down twenty one and you're like, oh, 90 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: what the hell did I do that? So I but 91 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: one of the best bets will be under fifty one 92 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: on Christmas Day. Um, I'd be surprised with the Vikings 93 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: one out right, but I think they can cover the number. Um. Now, 94 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: the NBA slate is just not spectacular. The first game 95 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: is Pelicans heat. They had to get Zion, and of course, 96 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean listen, they wedged Zion onto opening night in 97 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: the bubble. They tweaked the playoffs to give Zion a chance. 98 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: Then Christmas Day the mar Key day for the NBA. 99 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: Zion in the first game, Like if you guys can't 100 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: get the memo that Zion is greatly important to the NBA. 101 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you. Um, I kind 102 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: of like the Pelicans here. Um. You know, I don't 103 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: know how much I'm gonna love this team this year, 104 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: but I do have them in the playoffs. I got 105 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: a little bit irrational in my excitement for the for 106 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: the potential, but then I remembered, oh gosh, the backcourt 107 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: is Alonzo Ball and Eric bledsoe. Um, we'll see what 108 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: the Heat have after making a run to the NBA Finals, 109 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,119 Speaker 1: but I would lean Pelicans. There no bet from me. Uh. 110 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: Bucks Warriors is the second game, and you know, if 111 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: Draymond Green is not playing, um, we could see another 112 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Nets Warriors type blood bath. We know the Bucks are 113 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: built for the regular season, not an ideal matchup. I'm 114 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 1: not betting on that game. Uh. Then comes net Celtics, 115 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: and again, you know, injuries are the story. If we 116 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,799 Speaker 1: don't have Draymond in the second game, Warriors have no chance. 117 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: I think the Celtics are gonna be in trouble without 118 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: Kemba Walker and if Tristan Thompson doesn't play. Um, I 119 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: just don't see what the big situation is going to be. 120 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: We We've seen it before and it ain't pretty. I 121 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: don't even know how Boston gets much offense outside of 122 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: Tatum and and Jayleen Brown. I mean, Tatum gonna have 123 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: a forty burger on Christmas Day. I do have a 124 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: future's m v P then on it, so I'm hopeful. 125 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: But um, it feels like another big Nets victory. And 126 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: then the marquee game the Dallas Mavericks without porzingis against 127 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: the Lakers. Lakers, of course lost opening night. We talked 128 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: about that yesterday. Kind of sort of like the Lakers here, 129 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: I think the MAVs will be able to hang with him. Um, 130 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: But overall, I just we're looking at a high scoring game. 131 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: I would look at the over uh in this one. 132 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: MAVs like to score. MAVs were one of the most 133 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: efficient offensive teams last year. They just lost a bunch 134 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: of close games. And um, that's why a lot of 135 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: the numbers guys are bullish on the MAVs this year. 136 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: I guess the um the advanced stats say, listen, they 137 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: lost a lot of close games they should have won 138 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: last year. That could flip this year and the win them. 139 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,239 Speaker 1: But again, no, poor zingis you know who's your second 140 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: best player. There is some depth on this team, Dwight 141 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: Powell's back from injury, Jalen Brunson's back from injury. I 142 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: like the MAVs, but I would lean over here and 143 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: probably look at the Lakers and finally Clippers Nuggets another 144 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: revenge game. How about the NBA huh starting out the 145 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: Clippers with a revenge game against the Lakers, and that 146 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: a revenge game against the Nuggets. Lakers, of course beat 147 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: the Clippers right before the bubble began, um and the 148 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: series never happened because the Clippers choked away a three 149 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 1: one lead against Denver. They led three one, and they 150 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: were up double digits at halftime. They led three two, 151 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: and we're up double digits at halftime, and it was 152 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: tied at three, and they led by double digits at halftime, 153 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: Like there is a femalere I do think. However, the 154 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: Clippers open a can and really beat down Denver as 155 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: I hate remember us, Yeah, we're better than you. Um. 156 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: I don't know how Denver's gonna defend the wing this 157 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: year without Jeremy Grant. I guess Will Barton is the guy. 158 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you right now out Michael Porter Jr. 159 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: People gush over his offense. It's nice, he's fun. Um. 160 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: I do think he has some Tracy McGrady type scoring 161 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: ability where he could be a thirty point guy lead 162 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: the league in scoring. I don't know if the winning 163 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: mentality is there. It's a Michael Porter mentality. That's why 164 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: I compared him to Tracy McGrady when talking to wind 165 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: Horse the other day. But um, I would bet Clippers 166 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: in that one. But for the other best bets, I 167 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: will go to the NFL. And I think it's like 168 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: a pretty favorable slate if you guys are looking to 169 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: get down some action for Saturdays and Sunday's games. Um. 170 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay a bit of a letdown last week. UM, 171 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: you know against Atlanta on the road. Tampa Bay is 172 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 1: in a very favorable spot here. Looks like Matt Stafford 173 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: is questionable with the rib injury. UM. But I I 174 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: just I don't think any believe anybody believes at all 175 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: in this. Um. Detroit Lions deef ends it is laughable. 176 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: Uh they I mean the Titans could have probably scored 177 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: fifty easily. UM. I don't see how they contain Tampa. 178 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: Tampa's defense is much much better. Than Tennessee's and I 179 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: think Tampa is able to put this one away with ease. Um. 180 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: Not a bet from me. I did, however, wager on 181 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: Arizona favored by five. Not the best number it's been 182 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: creeping up, but for a best bet, gave out Viking Saints. 183 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: Uh sorry, Viking Saints under fifty one and a half. 184 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: I'm going Arizona over five. Five kind of a dead number. Um, 185 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: But that being said, San Francisco is gonna be either C. J. 186 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: Beathard or Josh Rosen. Yes, you heard that right, Josh Rosen, 187 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: former first round pick of Arizona. Maybe some gamesmanshipped there 188 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: from Kyle Shanahan picking up Rose and seeing what he's got. Um, 189 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 1: it's probably not much. And the forty nine is now 190 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: that they were eliminated from the playoffs. If you look 191 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: at the injury report, I mean, it looks about as 192 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: bleak as it did at times during their rough middle 193 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: portion of the season when they were just getting destroyed 194 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: most dirt Sherman. I can't imagine them rushing back Kittle 195 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 1: for this one. Um. It just doesn't look good for 196 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: the forty niners. And I know this is one of 197 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: those spots where you gotta hey, there's some value on 198 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: the forty niners, but you know that if you want 199 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 1: to go for it, I don't have the stomach for that. 200 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take an over here in the Philadelphia Eagles 201 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys game. This is a weird one because Jalen Hurts 202 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: has really jumped started the Eagles offense. Uh. Carson Wentz 203 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: could not do it. But Jalen Hurts is over four 204 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: yards the last two games. Remember with Carson Wentz, they 205 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: couldn't move the football, went just eating sacks left and right. Uh, 206 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: turnover machine. Hurts has been kind of the opposite, moving 207 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: the ball up and down the field. And remember that 208 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: was against the Saints really good defense, and Arizona was 209 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: slightly above league average defense. Dallas Cowboys are like bottom 210 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: of the barrel defense. So I see the Eagle scoring 211 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: a lot, moving up and down the field, and I 212 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: do see Andy Dalton putting up big numbers. UM. So 213 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: I think the over forty nine and a half is 214 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: totally miss priced. UM. I can see Eagles easily getting thirty, 215 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: and I can see Dallas no doubt getting twenty twenty 216 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: seven points on the board. So I like the over 217 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: forty nine in Eagles Cowboys. So that's three. I'm gonna 218 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: give out one more teaser. UM, and listen these two 219 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: road favorites. Uh, the teasers went well for me last 220 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: week here on the show too. And oh in NFL teasers, 221 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: the key on teasers, as you guys know, you take 222 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: a game down from seven through the key number of 223 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: seven and three and you take it. UM, you usually 224 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: take the favorite. I don't know that there's as much 225 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: value teasing dogs up. We saw the Uh New England 226 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: Patriots last week kind of screw everybody. I had a 227 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: couple of buddies who were on the Patriots and a 228 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: teaser and lost because Belichick opted to go on fourth 229 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: instead of kicked the field goal. So my two games, 230 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tease down. Buffalo Bills in New England taken 231 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: it down from seven to one. Um, they have clinched 232 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: the division. Uh. Patriots will probably be trotting out a 233 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: lot of young guys to see what they've got potentially 234 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: for the future. Uh, and I think that they'll they'll 235 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 1: show up. Belichick's not gonna roll over. There's no tanking 236 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: in Belichick's Uh, just does not exist in his Dojo. 237 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: I think the Bear Bills will win that by one 238 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: or two. And the other game is the Bears. Now 239 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: this is risky. The Bears are big favorites on the 240 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: road in Jacksonville. We know Jacksonville is now taking the 241 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: number one spot in the NFL draft race to get 242 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Well, you can be sure that the owner 243 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: and the GM in the front office have let it 244 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: be known if anybody is good and remotely injured dinged up, 245 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: let's sit him. And what happened on Wednesday? James Robinson, 246 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: their best offensive player this season, the undrafted rookie, all 247 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden MRS practice and the coaches like, yeah, 248 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: Robinson is gonna sit out. Okay, they have no offense 249 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: without James Robinson, Like he's he went over a hundred 250 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: again multiple teams this year. Is a really tough running back. 251 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: And they've opened up the quarterback competition. It's like, oh, 252 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: don't know if we're gonna go Gardner Minshu or Mike Glennon. 253 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: You know, like trying to keep some mystery for the 254 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: Bears defense. Yeah sure, um, I mean listen the key 255 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: with this teaser. You take it down from seven and 256 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: a half to six to uh one and a half, 257 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: and it's win win. If the Bears win a close one, 258 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: you win your teaser. If the Bears lose, I win 259 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: because I'm a Jets fan and they will get back 260 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: in the mix for the number one pick. Jets are 261 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: not beating Cleveland by the way. Um So those are 262 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: my four bets that I like the most. I have 263 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: already bet three of them. I'm waiting, um hopeful to 264 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: get a slightly better number on the on the teaser, 265 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: but we'll see. Um. So, I got Vikings Saints under 266 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: fifty one, Eagles, Cowboys over forty nine and a half. 267 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, under fifty one and a half, Eagles, Cowboys 268 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: over forty nine and a half, Arizona minus five, and 269 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: then the teaser builds minus one Bears minus one point five. 270 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: I'd love for that to be just a flat one 271 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: on the Bears, um, because yeah, it's the Chicago Bears. 272 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: Mitchell Robinsky favorite by a touchdown on the road. Guys, 273 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: come on, alright, so thank you again for listening to 274 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: this podcast.
