Chris, you're looking 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 2: pretty sharp there. Did you just get a haircut? I 16 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: actually did. 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 4: I got one yesterday. 18 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: I believe it with Yeah, it's it's looking very smooth. Okay, 19 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: thank you, Enough enough being nice to you. Let's start 20 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: off by looking back at week nine. You were four 21 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 2: and two. I was three and three, which is pretty 22 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 2: much the best I can hope for at this point 23 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 2: for the season. You are twenty six, twenty five and two. 24 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 2: I am twenty three, twenty six and four. Any takeaways 25 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: for you from week nine? 26 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 5: Week nine? 27 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 4: Not too much. I think things are kind of starting 28 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 4: to go pretty standard. I mean I don't. I don't 29 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 4: recall anything where I was just like, oh my god, 30 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 4: Like I was on the complete wrong side of things. 31 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 4: I think, you know, when we bet the Rams and 32 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 4: the safe line, I thought the value was still good 33 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 4: being that the Rams were underdogs. They ended up being 34 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 4: favored and ended up losing the game, but it was 35 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 4: like a pick them, I would have still gone New Orleans. 36 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 4: So I wasn't like too upset about that one. 37 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, basically, the only thing I'm taking away from week 38 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: nine is that I tend to be on the wrong 39 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: side of everything except for Bucks overs. I'm hard on 40 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: the right side of that. Basically for the rest of 41 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: the season, I'm just blindly hammering Bucks overs. 42 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 4: That's me. 43 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: That's where we are. 44 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 4: You've been You've been pretty You've been going hard on 45 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 4: like the overs in general, whether it's been the totals 46 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 4: or the team to lately. 47 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: So, yeah, it sometimes works out, it sometimes doesn't. Where 48 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: I am really doing well is on the props, the 49 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: Fantasy props player props things like that.

Game this system. Do us a favor, Okay, Chris, 65 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: Let's get into our opening first and five segment. We're 66 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: going to break down the five games that right now 67 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: are getting the most action in the Action Network AP, 68 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 2: the games that have the five highest Ticke accounts, and 69 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: let's start with the highest total game on the slate, 70 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 2: the seven to one Saints at the five and three Bengals. 71 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: Saints favored by sixty fifty four point over under. The 72 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: spread is up from four and a half, the total 73 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: is down from fifty five and a half. The Saints 74 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: have won seven games in a row. They just beat 75 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: the previously undefeated Rams. Of course, they also just signed 76 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: Dez Bryant to round out the receiving group, and the 77 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: Bengals are coming off of the bye Chris, what are 78 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: your thoughts. 79 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 4: In this game? I'm looking first at, obviously the absence 80 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 4: of AJ Green, that's going to play a huge factor 81 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 4: in this game and embedting this game. He was responsible 82 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 4: for forty percent of the Bengals air yards. They ranked 83 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 4: number four in the league in explosive pass rate, you know, 84 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 4: entering this week. But without Green, now you're losing a 85 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 4: player who ranked in the top five in receptions of 86 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 4: twenty or more yards with twelve, and so I think 87 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 4: that's going to really change the complexion of this offense. 88 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 4: And then you couple that with the fact that New 89 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 4: Orleans is a top three run defense by DDA. They 90 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 4: allow the fewest yards per carrying the league at three 91 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 4: point four. This spells trouble for Cincinnati, even though they're 92 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 4: at home and coming off a bye. I don't think 93 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 4: they'll be nearly as explosive on offense. Their defense has 94 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: not been good for most of the year. On the 95 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 4: other side of the ball you're looking at with their defense, 96 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 4: they rank third worst in tackling grade from Pro Football Focus. 97 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 4: That is not an ideal situation when you're going up 98 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 4: against Alvin Kamara. So for this game, though i'm the line, 99 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 4: I don't necessarily like to mess with these lines that 100 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 4: are between a field goal and a touchdown, And unless 101 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: I have a really strong lean, I do like the 102 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 4: Saints in this game. But because of Cincinnati's explosive or 103 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 4: lack thereof of explosive pass plays and the fact that 104 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 4: New Orleans can shut down the run as well, I 105 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 4: think Cincinnati either doesn't score nearly as much as they 106 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 4: usually do, or if they are scoring, they're going to 107 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 4: take much longer than usual to do it. They're going 108 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 4: to have to kind of dink and dunk it. New 109 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 4: Orleans is actually running the mo more than they're passing 110 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 4: the ball. Since mark Ingram came back with the under, 111 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 4: I think this total is a little inflated after New 112 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 4: Orleans put up some big numbers. 113 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 2: Yeah you know, actually, and now I'm looking at the 114 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: Action Network app, and I see that this game has dropped. 115 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: The spread has dropped to five and a half, which 116 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: is a little more intriguing to me than the six. 117 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick with the pick. I'm going New Orleans 118 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: over thirty on the team total. But I do actually 119 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: feel comfortable at this point where I would take that 120 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: at five and a half versus six. You know, I 121 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: could see being a six point game, which would give 122 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: me the victory over the Push. But looking at things 123 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: from the New Orleans side of the ball, they're going 124 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: against a defense that is significantly injured at the linebacker position. 125 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: Vontez Perfect is out, Nick Vigil is out. Well, I'm 126 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 2: saying that they are out, but they both missed games, 127 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: and then coming out of the by they didn't practice 128 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: on Wednesday, which is pretty significant for guys not to 129 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 2: be able to practice on Wednesday coming out of the bye. 130 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 2: So I'm assuming that it is likely they're going to miss. 131 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 2: And that is a defense that already is weak against 132 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 2: the run. I believe they are twenty seventh in run DVOA, 133 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 2: and then on top of that, they are weak in 134 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: pass defense against running backs twenty eight and pass defense 135 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: against running backs in Dboa, So it's a it's a 136 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: very good situation lining up for the running backs for 137 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 2: the Saints and with the Bengals missing Aj Green. I 138 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: do have questions about the ability of the Bengals to 139 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: sustain drives, which I think would give extra opportunities to 140 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: the Saints. So I know, if I had to sort 141 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: of like triangulate this in a perfect way, I would say, like, 142 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 2: I think the Saints will go over their total. I 143 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: could see the Bengals not hitting their total, and I 144 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 2: could see the Saints winning by more than five and 145 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 2: a half or by more than six. That's the way 146 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: I'm leaning on this, but I will stick with what 147 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 2: I originally put in the outline the team total Saints 148 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: over thirty. Let's go to the next game here. I 149 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 2: think this is going to be an intriguing game. The 150 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: four and four Falcons at the two six and one Browns. 151 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 2: Falcons favored by five a fifty one point zero under. 152 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: The spread is up from three and a half. The 153 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 2: Falcons handily beat the Redskins last week. Is Julio Jones 154 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: finally scored a touchdown? 155 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 6: Attention, your attention, please, Julio Jones has caught an NFL 156 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 6: touchdown pass. 157 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: And the Browns, of course were destroyed by the Chiefs. 158 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: Where are you leaning in this game? 159 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 4: Well, looking at this game, you know from the Cleveland 160 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: Browns perspective, they have to keep Duke Johnson involved. We 161 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: know the Falcons continuously, that's just part of their scheme. 162 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 4: They give up catches and catches on catches on catches 163 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 4: on catches to running backs. We leading again in that 164 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 4: category receptions to running backs this year would be the 165 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: fourth year in a row. So I think, you know, 166 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 4: the fact that Duke kind of re emerged is good 167 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 4: news for them. I also think that Cleveland's not as 168 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 4: good as their number two ranking in pass defense DVOA 169 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 4: might suggest, so I don't think that's a big deal. 170 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 4: I think the Falcons will keep on rolling in that 171 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 4: aspect as well, and I'm actually thinking that both teams 172 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 4: are able to score. The Falcons still bottom three in 173 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 4: DVOA on defense, they're twenty eighth against the pass, thirty 174 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 4: one against the run. I think with the new coaching 175 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 4: staff in place and you and Todd Haley out of there, 176 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 4: they're playing a little bit smarter ball on offense. So 177 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 4: I do have confidence that they can exploit this in 178 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 4: Atlanta defense, Baker Mayfild, They're going to put aim in 179 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 4: more spread concepts, more shorter stuff, perhaps limit some of 180 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 4: the sacks. He was taking a ton of sacks under 181 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 4: the U Haley regime, but cut him down a little 182 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 4: bit over these last couple of games. So for those reasons, 183 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 4: I like this over under where it's at at fifty one. 184 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 4: I think it can go over, whether it's because the 185 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 4: Falcons put up a big number or because both teams do. 186 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 4: If you look at all of the Cleveland games under 187 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield, you had eighty seven points, then twenty one 188 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 4: points in a twelve to nine game with the Ravens, 189 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 4: which you know that that happens, then fifty two, forty nine, 190 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 4: fifty one, fifty eight, So that's an average of fifty three, 191 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 4: even when you include that game against the Ravens. I 192 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 4: think there's a pretty good chance that this game it's 193 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 4: the over as well. 194 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: I'm with you on a lot of what you said, 195 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: all of the reasons to be optimistic about what's happening 196 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 2: for the Falcons offense. They're going against a defense that 197 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: I think you're right is overrated. And then now especially 198 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: he's injured. 199 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: E J. 200 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 2: Gaines Corner. I mean, he's not that good to begin with, 201 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: but he was starting for them and now he's on 202 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 2: injured reserve. Christian Kirksey linebackers on injured reserve. Jamie Collins 203 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: didn't practice on Wednesday. He set out with an ankle injury. 204 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: Denzel Ward is the big one. He set out Wednesday's 205 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: practice with a hip injury. It's really uncertain as to 206 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 2: what is going to happen with him. Joe Schobert should 207 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 2: be returning probably, but he still is uncertain. So there's 208 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 2: a lot of uncertainty there going on with the defense 209 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: for the Browns. On the opposite side of that, you 210 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 2: also have Atlanta, which potentially will be getting better on defense. 211 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 2: Deon Jones is he set to return or like. 212 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 4: Nay, I think he's So what's going on with him 213 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: is he's practicing, but he's not on the active roster, 214 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 4: so he won't appear on the injury report, but he 215 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 4: can't return until the week app next week is mind, 216 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 4: You're right. 217 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: You're right, Okay, So never mind. On the the optimism 218 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: I have for the Falcons, Yeah, but I'm there with 219 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: the Falcons going over their team total. I think I 220 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: would be probably, of course, like twenty seven and a 221 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: half is where it is right now, Like I'd be 222 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: willing to probably take that to thirty. I just don't 223 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: have much respect for the Browns. Let's go to this 224 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: next game here, the four and four Cardinals at the 225 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: two six and one Chiefs. Oh Man, The Chiefs favored 226 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 2: by sixteen and a half a forty nine point five 227 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 2: over under. The spread is down from seventeen and a half. 228 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: The total is down for fifty. The Chiefs, you know, 229 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: they're great. They have the highest scoring offensive league and 230 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 2: the Cardinals have one of the worst. Where are you 231 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: going here? 232 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 4: So this one was interesting, just more from what I 233 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 4: think a betting market perspective in terms of, we have 234 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 4: this game with a huge spread, the total considering the 235 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 4: spread is actually not outrageous, especially for a Chiefs game. 236 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 4: So I went and kind of looked it up of like, Okay, 237 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 4: given all the different potential outcomes, what's kind of the 238 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 4: sharpest way to lean in this game? So first I 239 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 4: looked at all of the games where a team wins 240 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 4: by seventeen or more points, and I looked at it 241 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,599 Speaker 4: starting in twenty fifteen, So there was two hundred and 242 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 4: eleven times where a team won by at least seventeen points, 243 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 4: they scored thirty four points or more and fifty six 244 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 4: percent of those games. Now, I also looked at, okay, 245 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 4: how many times does you know when a team wins 246 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 4: by seventeen or more does both teams total combined for 247 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 4: over fifty points some more, which would it would need 248 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 4: to do to hit the total? And it turns out 249 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 4: that it only happens thirty six percent at the time. 250 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 4: So it's a lot more likely that Kansas City is 251 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 4: going If if you're on the side of Kansas City 252 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: and you think that they're going to win and cover 253 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 4: the spread, the bet here would be to take their 254 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 4: team total much better, oh much better. But see, I 255 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 4: actually backed my I did extensive research before I cop out. 256 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: We'll see, take these teams first, all of that is factored. 257 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 2: But I'm doing this, you know, I'm sort of like 258 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: doing like the mental calculus of like, well, I trust 259 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: that this team will go over, but I don't trust 260 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 2: what's happening defensively for them or what's happening on the 261 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: other side of the ball. 262 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 4: Actually, yeah, actually, but yeah, no, but seriously, yeah, so 263 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 4: much better bet if you're on the casey side, just 264 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 4: take them with the team total here and then on 265 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 4: the other side of the of it, just looking at 266 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 4: it from the perspective of, Okay, what happens when teams 267 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 4: are favored by this many points? So home favorites of 268 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 4: sixteen or more, looked it up in bet labs, they're 269 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 4: only thirteen, seventeen and two since two thousand and three, 270 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 4: so they have not been profitable to wager on at 271 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 4: that spot if you extend it to just teams that 272 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 4: are favored by more than a touchdown, so fourteen and 273 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 4: a half or more twenty four, twenty eight and two 274 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 4: since two thousand and three, So that's kind of something 275 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 4: to think about on the other side. And then just 276 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 4: in general, when a team is favored this big, when 277 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 4: a home team is favored by by sixteen or more, 278 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 4: the over is seventeen and fourteen, So I think definitely 279 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 4: more trends kind of lean towards either taking the Chiefs 280 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 4: team total or just taking the over in this game 281 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 4: than it does to taking the Chiefs at this big 282 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 4: of a number. So I am gonna stick with my 283 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 4: stick with your I should say over thirty three and 284 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 4: a half. I don't love it, but you know, that's 285 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 4: kind of where the trends are. And I can't really 286 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 4: see any reason for Kansas City, you know, I know, 287 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 4: Sammy Watkins is a little iffy, so I mean that's something. 288 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 4: Chris Connwey just is invisible most of the time when 289 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 4: he's out there. But I mean we still have Tyreek Kill, 290 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 4: Travis Kelcey, and Kareim Hunt. I don't think losing Watkins 291 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 4: hurts nearly as much as it would for maybe another team. 292 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean sixteen and a half, seventeen seventeen and 293 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: a half wherever this line ends up settling, like that 294 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: is just a really big number, and I would prefer 295 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 2: to stay away from it. At the same time, I 296 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 2: don't really want to mess with the game total, because 297 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 2: I mean, Kansas City, like that is a significant home 298 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 2: field advantage. They really limit opponents at Kansas City, and 299 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 2: like they've done it for years, They've done it in 300 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 2: the Read era, and it's something that's like extended like 301 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 2: past the Read era. It's a real thing. Like Kansas 302 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 2: City unders like that's normally where you want to go. 303 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 2: That said, like, I don't want to bet the under 304 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 2: in any game where Patrick Mahomes you're back and reads 305 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 2: calling a plays for him. So that pretty clearly leads 306 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: me to taking a big surprise the over on on 307 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: Kansas City. With the team total there right now thirty 308 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 2: three and a half the next game, I mean, it's 309 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: hard to be too excited about any game that has 310 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: the five and four Dolphins. They are playing at the 311 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: three four and one Packers, Packers favored by ten a 312 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: forty seven and a half point over under. The spread 313 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: is up from nine and a half. The Dolphins have 314 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 2: Brock Osweiler quarterback and the Packers don't. What are your 315 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: thoughts here? 316 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 4: So this is another interesting one just because, first of all, 317 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 4: I guess we should we should mention that, you know, 318 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 4: the books had a really bad week last week. Favorites 319 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 4: kind of dominated, and so I think that might be 320 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 4: part of the reason you're seeing all these larger lines 321 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 4: in favor of the you know, larger spreads this week, 322 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 4: and a lot of them increasing. So that's something to 323 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 4: keep in mind. That is usually a situation where you 324 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 4: want to try to find some value on the underdogs 325 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 4: in these spots. Now I'm trying to find some value 326 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 4: on these Dolphins. I mean, you know, ten point underdogs 327 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 4: on the road of ten or more points have actually 328 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 4: been profitable slightly to wage roun since two thousand and three. 329 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 4: They are two fifteen, one, ninety five and eleven. But 330 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 4: you know, it's not a super strong trend. You know, 331 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers at the same time as a ten point 332 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 4: home favorite eleven and nine in his careers, that's a 333 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 4: fifty five percent hit rate. If you extend the sample 334 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 4: a little bit more to look at games when Rogers 335 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 4: is favored by more than a touchdown at home, so 336 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 4: seven point five or more, he's twenty one, fourteen and two, 337 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 4: So that's a sixty six percent cover rate. I lean 338 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 4: towards the Packers kind of dominating in this spot, and 339 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 4: a big reason for me is just I think that 340 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 4: they'll have an advantage in terms of being able to 341 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 4: get some pressure on as Wiler. If you look at 342 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 4: Pro Football focuses O line D line matchups, and the 343 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 4: pressure rate advantage for green Bay forty three percent their 344 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 4: D line versus Miami's OH line. That is the largest 345 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 4: advantage for any team playing this week. So I think 346 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 4: it's a smash spot for green Bay, even though green 347 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 4: Bay really hasn't blown anyone out this year except Buffalo. 348 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. There a couple of things to note. 349 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: There are some trends with Rogers that have extended across 350 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: his career. He's obviously, I mean, and like most quarterbacks here, 351 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: he's better at home, he's better as a favorite, and 352 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: he's better outside of division you know, playing against an 353 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 2: opponent that doesn't get to get used to him playing 354 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: against him two times a year, and he is on 355 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: the right side of all of those splits in this 356 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: matchup and with Rogers in that situation non divisional home favorites. 357 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 2: The Packers are twenty five and seventeen in terms of 358 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: hitting the over. I don't really feel all that confident 359 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 2: about the spread here. Like, if I had to choose 360 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: the side, I would go with the Packers. But I mean, 361 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: ten is a lot. I could easily see how there's 362 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: you know, like a defensive touchdown, or like Jaqem Grant 363 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: gets a special teams touchdown, or you know what I mean, 364 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 2: like something happens that is sort of like outside of 365 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 2: the normal you know, realm of play that we normally 366 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 2: see to give the back door cover here, So like 367 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 2: I don't really feel good about the spread, and honestly, 368 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: and I don't really even feel all that great about 369 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 2: the total either. But if I had to choose something, 370 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: I would take over forty seven and a half or 371 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 2: forty eight kind of wherever this line settles, that's the 372 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 2: way that I would go. But I don't really have 373 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 2: This is like one of the games where I really 374 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 2: don't have a strong lean on it either way. I 375 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: don't know about you. 376 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I kind of agree with you. I was 377 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 4: going back and forth on this one, kind of the 378 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 4: same feelings you have about the spread I have about 379 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 4: the total. I mean I was looking at, you know, 380 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 4: a kind of a similar game to this Patriots Dolphins, 381 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 4: and it had actually ended up thirty eight sevens and 382 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 4: so that's only forty five points. I could see the Dolphins, 383 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 4: you know, they just came off a game where they 384 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 4: gave Frank Gore twenty carries, which I believe was a 385 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 4: season high. You know, I could see them trying to 386 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 4: run the ball just to. 387 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 2: That might be a decade high for Frank Gore. 388 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 4: I mean, he's hanging in there, man. But yeah, so, 389 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 4: you know, I could see the Dolphins kind of trying 390 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 4: to a similar tactic just to ensure that Rogers isn't 391 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 4: on the fields all day against them. It's just one 392 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 4: of these games where I could see the package winning 393 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 4: also within thirty four nothing or something like that, and 394 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 4: that to me just I just feel like it's a 395 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 4: little more likely than I mean, it's just kind of 396 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 4: just a weird total too, like forty seven and a half. 397 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 4: Like I could go either way, but I feel like 398 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 4: I don't have a strong win on this game either. 399 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 4: So let's let's see, let's just go to the next one. 400 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: Well, while I am on the over, there forty seven 401 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 2: percent of the tickets, seventy nine percent of the money 402 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 2: is on the under. According to the Action Network app 403 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 2: there okay. The last game to cover in our first 404 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: and five segments the three and five Lions at the 405 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: five and three Bears, Bears favored by six and a 406 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 2: half a forty four point five over under. The total 407 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 2: is down from forty six and a half. It's the 408 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: first of two games that these teams will play against 409 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 2: each other over the next fourteen days. The Lions have 410 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 2: lost two games in a row and the Bears have 411 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 2: won two in a row. What are you thinking, so 412 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: forty four and a half. 413 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 4: I love this number. I'm going under here. You know, 414 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 4: if it gets to forty four, that's a little more 415 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 4: like you know, could either way, but that extra little 416 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 4: half point, especially in a game that it is projected 417 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 4: to be. I believe above ten mile per hour wins. 418 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 4: I think last week I was on the under in 419 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 4: the Lions game as well. I just feel like at 420 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 4: this point this team is it seems like it's an overteam. 421 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: You know, they their defense doesn't look good on paper. 422 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 4: They have Matthew Stafford, they have you know, Jones and 423 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 4: Galladay and carry on and all those guys, but Matthew 424 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 4: Stafford really hasn't had a high ceiling as statistically this 425 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 4: year as a quarterback. You know, Golden Tate being out 426 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 4: was twenty seven percent of his targets. He's gone. We 427 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 4: saw him take the ten sacks last week against Minnesota. 428 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 4: Going on the road here against the Bears defense that 429 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 4: looks like they're gonna get back Kheil Mack and it's 430 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 4: just a game that I don't think there's gonna be 431 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 4: a ton of points. The Bears ended up going over 432 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 4: there total last week, I believe was it last week. Yeah, 433 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 4: forty one to nine. Was that last week or two, 434 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 4: I forget when it was, but that was kind of 435 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 4: more so them exploding. I don't think that they'll explode 436 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 4: in this game. Detroit's defense is getting better, they have onsa, 437 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 4: they have snacks Harrison. Now, I just see another one 438 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 4: of these kind of twenty four to seven ish type 439 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 4: of situations transpiring. I see it playing out really similarly 440 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 4: to what happened the week before against Minnesota without probably 441 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 4: without the ten stack, because I'm sure they'll do things 442 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 4: differently to just get the ball out of Stafford's hands 443 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 4: more quickly. But I don't think that necessarily means more 444 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 4: points because you're still going against the defense that's top 445 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 4: five in DVOA in the Chicago Bears. 446 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate this game just from like an analytical perspectives, 447 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: this is one that's kind of hard for me to 448 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: look at. I'm going with Detroit plus six and a half, 449 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 2: but I don't really feel strong about it. But it 450 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: is correlated with everything that you talked about in why 451 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 2: you would take this game for the under. If this 452 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: game goes to the under, then just fewer points and 453 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: easier for the underdog to cover. That's basically why I'm 454 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 2: doing it. Here, two teams that are in division that 455 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 2: know each other, well, I'm going to take the one 456 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 2: that's getting the more points. There. Like I think, like, 457 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 2: if you had to make the line on this, where 458 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 2: do you think it should be the spread? 459 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 4: I would probably put it more in like the Chicago 460 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 4: five and a half to six range. I think that's 461 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 4: I think that's a little more reasonable. I think just 462 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 4: because of you know, we always talk about the recency bias, 463 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 4: and when you have one team that's coming off a 464 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 4: big or two blowouts in a row, and then you 465 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 4: have another team that's coming off two disappointing wasses in 466 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 4: a row where they got blown out by double digits 467 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 4: each time, I think you're going to kind of get 468 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 4: an extra point point and a half. So I think 469 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 4: the sharp side from kind of the market based, you know, contrarian, 470 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 4: you know, bet against the public kind of profit when 471 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 4: the lines are inflated play here would be the Detroit Lion. 472 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,959 Speaker 4: So if I'm leaning on a side, I'm going Detroit. 473 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 4: But like, I don't have a lot of confidence even 474 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 4: given those factors that, right, this is necessarily going to 475 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 4: be that game where you know, Detroit, like it's not 476 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 4: the perfect time for it, like not the Bears defense 477 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: is not necessarily like the defense that you can kind 478 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 4: of get right against. And so I just feel a 479 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 4: little more confident that with Detroit getting a little better, 480 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 4: I think there's just a little more value to me 481 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 4: anyway on the on the total, just because I think 482 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 4: people are still thinking of Detroit is like this horrible, 483 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 4: horrible defense. But I mean they held Minnesota relatively and 484 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 4: check and just ended up playing a low scoring game. 485 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 4: And they're not a very fast paced team either. So 486 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 4: I just think a few more things kind of got 487 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 4: me trend intoward the underwinn. 488 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear you there, like think, and so I 489 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 2: think you're right about where you would set the line. 490 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 2: I don't think Chicago should be favored by like just three. 491 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 2: I think they should be favored by more than that. 492 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 2: But more than six feels like maybe a little bit 493 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 2: too much. And I can see how this game could 494 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 2: go under. Uh, you know, two divisional opponents that know 495 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 2: each other well, you know, but I could also see 496 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: how this game goes over, you know, with Matthew Stafford 497 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 2: as like the Gunslinger and you know Naggy there's the 498 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 2: head coach, and maybe there's like a wild Mitch Trubisky game. 499 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 2: It's like one of those games where he has three 500 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: hundred yards and four touchdowns. Like I could see both 501 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 2: of those things happening. So I just that's why I'm 502 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 2: tending to go a little more to Detroit's. 503 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 4: I mean, Vinsky has If Mitch tru Brisky has three 504 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 4: hundred and ten yards and four touchdowns and just takes Chicago, 505 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 4: I mean, I definitely happened. I feel like Detroit doesn't 506 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 4: stand a chance, like I guess. I mean, mister Brisky's 507 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 4: been the far better fantasy quarterback than Matthew Stafford this year. 508 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 4: It's just for whatever reason, this Lion's offense hasn't quite 509 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 4: performed I think up to what you know, what it's 510 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 4: capable of or what we thought it could and getting 511 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 4: over of Golden Tate just does not help that. It's 512 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 4: like Stafford has had two touchdowns in every game. The 513 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 4: yard just hasn't really been there. At least two touchdowns 514 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 4: and six in all but two of his games, but 515 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 4: the yard hasn't, you know, been there consistently. You know, 516 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 4: he's had a three hundred yard a couple of three 517 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 4: hundred yard games and then it's been you know, like 518 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 4: one eight three, one ninety nine. So I mean it's 519 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 4: hard to I shouldn't say he's like underperforming terribly, but 520 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 4: he's sitting there kind of as like that fringe top 521 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,439 Speaker 4: twenty fantasy quarterback. But he's twentieth. So that's you know, 522 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 4: that's way under expectation considering it's been such an explosive 523 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 4: passing year that you know, even though his numbers you know, 524 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 4: don't sound bad on paper. I mean, you know, Joe 525 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 4: Flacco and case Keenum are also even Russell Will and 526 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 4: Wake Bortles, you know, all outscoring Matthew Stafford. It's an 527 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 4: interesting situation there, but yeah, I'm kind of I'm still 528 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 4: expecting not many points. 529 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 2: We spent probably the most time talking about a game 530 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: that neither one of us likes. Okay, we have the 531 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 2: two minute drill next right after we check it with 532 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 2: John Ewen for some trend based sports betting insights. 533 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 6: Good data is always in fashion. Here's John Ewing with 534 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 6: trend of the week. 535 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 7: The Buffalo Bills offense averaging ten point four points per 536 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 7: game is comically bad. The team hasn't scored more than 537 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 7: thirteen points in a game since Week three and has 538 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 7: managed to score only eight touchdowns this season. Per Football Outsiders, 539 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 7: Buffalo has the worst offensive DVOA ever measured through nine games. 540 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 7: The Bill's historic offensive ineptitude is why the New York 541 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 7: Jets opened as eight point favorites on Sunday. But here's 542 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 7: the thing. Bad offenses are often undervalued, especially after a 543 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,239 Speaker 7: blowout loss. The Bills fell to the forty one to 544 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,719 Speaker 7: nine last Sunday. Since two thousand and three, teams following 545 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 7: a loss of four more touchdowns that score fewer than 546 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 7: twenty points per game like Buffalo have gone ninety eight 547 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 7: seventy two to five. That's a fifty eight percent win 548 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 7: rate against the spread in their next game. If the 549 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 7: team's an underdog, like the Bills, the ATS win rate 550 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 7: improves to sixty percent and majority of bets are on 551 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 7: the Jets. But the line has moved from Buffalo plus 552 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 7: eight to plus six and a half. When the line 553 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 7: moves in the opposite direction of the betting percentages, this 554 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 7: is called reverse line movement and is an indication of 555 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 7: sharp money. Those wanting to wager on the Bills better 556 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 7: at quick as this line continues to decrease. 557 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 2: That was John. Be sure to check out his sports 558 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 2: betting articles each week at the Action Network. Chris the 559 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 2: quote unquote two minute drill. We're going to run through 560 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: the remaining non primetime games and two minutes or as 561 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 2: close as we can get to two minutes. The four 562 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 2: and four Seahawks at the eight to one Rams, Rams 563 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 2: favored by ten a fifty point five over under, the 564 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 2: first time in his career that Russell Wilson has been 565 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 2: a digit dog. 566 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 4: If he's going to cover, he's going to need help 567 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 4: from his receivers. Since week three. David Moore had had 568 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 4: the bad drop last week, but weeds Seattle in air 569 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 4: yards market share with a twenty nine percent share, and 570 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 4: he's tied for the team lead in target share as 571 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 4: well since we three at seventeen percent. He's played seventy 572 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 4: five percent of the snaps over the last two weeks, 573 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 4: and the Rams have allowed the most touchdowns and the 574 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 4: fifth most yards two wide receivers over the past five weeks. 575 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 2: The six and two Chargers at the one in seven Raiders. 576 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 2: The Chargers favored by ten a forty nine point five 577 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: points over under. Is a rematch of the twenty six 578 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: to ten home victory eight Week five for the Chargers. 579 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 4: Melvin Gordon played a season high eighty eight percent of 580 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: the snaps last week, has one hundred yards and or 581 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 4: a touchdown in every game open, allowing one hundred and 582 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 4: sixty eight total yards to running backs along with one 583 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 4: in a quarter touchdowns per game. And I'll give you 584 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 4: a bonus. John Gruden against Vance Joseph and Hugh Jackson, 585 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 4: the least profitable coach against the spread and the former 586 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 4: we ffitable coach against the spread before he got fired. 587 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 4: He's two and zero against the spread, one in one 588 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 4: straight up, and his team has a plus two point 589 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 4: differential in his other six games own six, own six 590 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 4: against the spread minus one thirteen. 591 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: I can't believe I'm going to say this. Eighteen percent 592 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: of the tickets fifty three percent of the money is 593 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 2: on the Raiders in that game. The five and three 594 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 2: Redskins at the three and five Buccaneers. Buccaneers favored by 595 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 2: three eight fifty one point five over under. This game 596 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 2: opened at a pick them. These are two of the 597 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 2: most injured teams in the league facing off. 598 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 4: Mike Evans got milk cartons last week by Carolina James Bradberry, 599 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 4: but Carolina is actually number two in DVA versus number 600 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 4: one wide receivers. Washington, on the other hand, ranks eighteenth, 601 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 4: and their ninety six point nine schedule adjusted yards allowed 602 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 4: per game to number one wideouts are most in the 603 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 4: league per Football Outsiders. So I recommended obj Julio against 604 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 4: these Redskins in our Fantasy labs dot Com Premium main 605 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 4: slate the FS Breakdown, and it looks like I will 606 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 4: be recommended Evans this week against the Redskins as well. 607 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 2: Fifty two percent of the tickets eighty four percent in 608 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 2: the money is on the Bucks in that game, the 609 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 2: three and five Jags at the three and five Colts. 610 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 2: The Colts favored by forty six point five over under. 611 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 2: The Jags have lost four games in a row. The 612 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 2: Colts have won two straight and could legit win their 613 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 2: next four. 614 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, the only real story in this game 615 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 4: is it's a revenge game for Dante Moncrief. I mean, obviously, 616 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 4: of course, but seriously, Moncrief actually leads Jacksonville and target 617 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 4: share at eighteen percent, airyard shared by Amayo at thirty 618 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 4: two percent, and at inside the ten targets share at 619 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 4: twenty five percent. He's been the only receiver that's kind 620 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 4: of maintained a consistent role now that Kewan Cole has 621 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 4: kind of been I don't know if he's been demoted, 622 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 4: but he didn't play more than that. He didn't hit 623 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 4: thirty percent of the snaps last week. 624 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 2: The two and seven Bills at the three and six Jets. 625 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: Jets favored by six and a half a thirty six 626 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: point five over under. The Bills have lost four straight games, 627 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 2: but they might get Josh Allen back. Not sure about 628 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: that yet. The Jets have lost three straight and are 629 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: expected to be without Sam Darnold. 630 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 4: So my favorite thing about this game is going to 631 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 4: be to watch Trell Pryor. Pryor played eighty two percent 632 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 4: of the snaps in his first game as a Bill 633 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 4: got five targets in a carry. Among wide receivers with 634 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 4: twenty or more targets this season, Prior ranks fourteenth in 635 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 4: the league in yards per route run. That's ahead of 636 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 4: guys like Odell Beckham, Josh Gordon, will Fuller, Davonte Adams, 637 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 4: and Juju Smith Schuster. 638 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 2: Finally, the seven and two Patriots at the four and 639 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 2: four Titans. Patriots favored by six and a half a 640 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 2: forty six point five over under. The Pats have won 641 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 2: six straight after their one and two starts. They are 642 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 2: the number one team in the Action Network Power rankings. 643 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 2: The Titans are yet to score more than twenty eight 644 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: points this year. 645 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 4: Another AFC South revenge game, this time Dion Lewis, after 646 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator Matt Lafleur mentioned Lewis would be more involved 647 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 4: then Derreck Henry going forward. Prior to the game against 648 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 4: the Cowboys, Lewis out snapped Henry by a rate of 649 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 4: eighty four percent to twenty percent in a game that 650 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 4: Tennis Lee actually had positive game script and led throughout 651 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 4: most of the game, which was by far the biggest 652 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 4: discrepancy between the two in terms of snap rate on 653 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,239 Speaker 4: the season. At forty six hundred on DraftKings, Lewis has 654 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 4: a top projected plus minus among all running backs, and 655 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 4: he also has a top five projected plus minus even 656 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 4: on FanDuel despite at the zero point five PPR. 657 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: All right, and you also have the Malcolm Butler and 658 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 2: head coach Mike Vrabel revenge game as well, So yeah, 659 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 2: a lot to look forward to there coming up. As 660 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: our third and long segment, on lineup building in Slate Strategy. 661 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: Right after Josh Applebaum tells us which game the wise 662 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 2: guys are betting this week, the. 663 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 6: Money talks and action apple bomb is all ears. This 664 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 6: is the Sharp Report. 665 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 4: NFL Week ten. 666 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 5: We are traveling to Nashville, down to the Music City 667 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 5: for a showdown between the seven and two Patriots and 668 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 5: the four and four Tennessee Titans. Titans came off an 669 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 5: impressive win and cover last week in Dallas, but yet 670 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 5: they are still getting no public love for recreational betters. 671 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 5: The Mighty Patriots once again are a huge public favorite. 672 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 5: This game opened on the key number of seven, the 673 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 5: Patriots listed as a seven point road favorite. Currently eighty 674 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 5: one percent of spread beats are laying the points on 675 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 5: the road with Brady and Belichick. However, we've seen some 676 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 5: big wise guy action on the Tennessee Titans. This game 677 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 5: open at seven, and Sharp's immediately got down hard on 678 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 5: Tennessee Titans on the key number of seven. The interesting 679 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 5: thing here is that this overload of Sharp action caused 680 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 5: this line to fall down to six and a half. 681 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 5: And also we've seen that the juice on the six 682 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 5: and a half is actually juiced up on the Titan side, 683 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 5: so at Pinnacle and Bookmaker, the juice is currently Titans 684 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 5: plus six and a half minus one fifteen. This lets 685 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 5: you know that the liability is still on the Titan 686 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 5: side even though the line has fallen half point in 687 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 5: their favor. Looks like the next move may even be 688 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 5: down to six now that it's off the key number 689 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 5: of seven. We haven't seen any moves on Titans six 690 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 5: and a half, so really got to get the key 691 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 5: number of seven in this one. Another interesting point here, 692 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 5: Titans are only getting nineteen percent of spread bets. As 693 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 5: a result, they would be a class conririon player. They 694 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 5: would fit the Sports Insights eighty twenty rule. Since two 695 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 5: thousand and five, teams getting twenty percent or less spread 696 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 5: bets are fifty five percent ATS. So far this season, 697 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 5: teams getting less than thirty percent of spread bets are 698 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 5: sixty one percent ATS. So, as always, the public will 699 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 5: be pounding the Patriots expecting an easy cover with Brady 700 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 5: and Belichick, but the wise guys are buying low on 701 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 5: the Titans getting seven points at home. 702 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: Okay, that was Josh. Be sure to check out his 703 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 2: article The Sharp Report each week on the Action Network Chris, 704 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 2: let's talk some strategy. Let's look at the highest owned 705 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 2: players in the Fantasy Labs models. Let's think about who 706 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 2: we would roster, who we might pivot away from, and 707 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 2: some of the guys we might want to pivot to. 708 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 2: And let's start at the quarterback position. The guy that 709 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 2: right now has the highest ownership projection in our models 710 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 2: is Jared Goff at home, a big favorite going against 711 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 2: the divisional rival Seattle Seahawks. What are you doing with Gough? 712 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 4: You know, back at home? I love GoF, He's always 713 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 4: in a smash spot. But on DraftKings, Patrick Mahomes is 714 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 4: just price so affordably that I don't think you really 715 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 4: want to go away from him when you don't have to. 716 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 4: On FANDUL he's up at ninety eight hundred, so I 717 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 4: think that it's fair to kind of think about other 718 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 4: options there are, though, I think you know FANDU they 719 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 4: always allow you to kind of get in an extra 720 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 4: stud compared to the draftings, so you can certainly do 721 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 4: it on either site, but especially on DraftKings, I'm leaning 722 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 4: toward going with Mahomes. GoF is in a better spot 723 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 4: on fandel and you know, the Seahawks It's interesting, you know, 724 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 4: I think if you're stacking, if you're using Todd Gurley, 725 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 4: it's also another reason to use golf and cash games, 726 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:35,959 Speaker 4: because then you're just kind of stacking up that whole 727 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 4: entire Rams offense. Now, obviously you can also do that 728 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,959 Speaker 4: with Kareem Hunt and Patrick Mahomes, but that's a tactic 729 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 4: that I use quite a bit in cash games when 730 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 4: there's kind of an offense in a smash spot, I 731 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 4: would I would lean Chiefs in terms of a smash spot, 732 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 4: just because the Seahawks have been pretty good on defense 733 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 4: this year, to kind of I think most people's surprise. 734 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 4: They are still top five in DVOA and they're number 735 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 4: five overall against the past. So if I had a 736 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 4: kind of pick between you know, the Chiefs or the 737 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 4: Rams this week, I would still go with with the Chiefs. 738 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 4: But Jared gov has very very positive home splits. 739 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 2: All right, what about Aaron Rodgers going to get some 740 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins. 741 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 4: You know, that's an interesting one for me. I think, 742 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 4: you know, his price is kind of undraftings at sixty 743 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 4: four hundred, that's a really good price for him, but 744 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 4: in cash games at eight hundred lesson Mahomes. I still 745 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 4: kind of wan Mahomes or you know, kind of go 746 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 4: to GoF the problem with this game to me is 747 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 4: that I just don't really have a great handle on 748 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 4: how I think it's going to play out. With the 749 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 4: big spread, I could see it's kind of being one 750 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 4: of those games like the Buffalo game where the Packers 751 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 4: win handily twenty two nothing. They ran the ball and 752 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 4: that was that. And so because Aaron Rodgers isn't opposing 753 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 4: a quarterback like a Jared Goff that he has or 754 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 4: Tom Brady last week, I don't think his outlook as 755 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 4: far as having you know, one of those Aaron Rodgers 756 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 4: four hundred yard three touchdown games, is quite as high 757 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 4: as it would be in a game with a team 758 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 4: that's expected to be more competitive. I actually think that 759 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 4: if you do think either the Dolphins can stay clos 760 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 4: or that this is going to be one of those games, 761 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: I think what you do is you take advantage of 762 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 4: those opposing quarterbacks correlations and you pivot to brock Osqui 763 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 4: where who's going to be really low owned and is 764 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 4: super cheap. 765 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about the Beard Fitzpatrick. I think he's 766 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 2: in a really interesting spot. He's probably I mean, he's 767 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 2: popping in some of our Fantasy Labs models. Personally, I 768 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 2: just love like I like watching him play, Like I 769 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 2: like that offense. It's dynamic. He's old and he like 770 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 2: he knows he's on his last opportunity, so he's just 771 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: like airing the ball all over the place. That in 772 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 2: no way is any reason to roster him in DFS, 773 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 2: but like it's fun to roster him and he's in 774 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 2: a good spot. What are your thoughts about him this week? 775 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, to me, Ryan, like Ryan Fitzpatrick is 776 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 4: the number two quarterback in fantasy to me, like like 777 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 4: it's Patrick Mahomes and it's Ryan, Like there's no quarterback 778 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,240 Speaker 4: I feel more confident on a week to week basis, 779 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 4: will put up numbers outside of Patrick Mahomes, cluding Jared Goff, 780 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 4: including Breez and cluding Bray Rogers, all those guys Cam 781 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 4: Newton included, then this guy, Ryfitzpatrick. 782 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 2: The question is is he going to get benched? Right? 783 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 4: Right? 784 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 6: Right? 785 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 4: That's the only thing. Yeah, And so that's really the 786 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 4: only reason that I wouldn't And we talked about this 787 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 4: last week. You know, it's the only reason that I 788 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,479 Speaker 4: wouldn't say, hey, go ahead and lock him in cash games. 789 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 4: It's because there's always that chance that he gets matched. 790 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 4: If you just look at the Tampa Bay quarterbacks and 791 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 4: the numbers that they put up together, I mean every game, 792 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 4: it's just hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of yards and touchdowns, right, 793 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 4: and then they don't run for touchdowns ever, right, and 794 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 4: if they do, it's the quarterback. So I mean, he's 795 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 4: the number one tournament play because he's cheaper than Patrick Mahomes. 796 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 4: So that's the way I'm approaching him. Number one tournament play. 797 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,919 Speaker 4: Let's not use him in cash just I mean, it's 798 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 4: crazy because even if he gets benched, I mean he 799 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 4: could be he could throw for like two hundred and 800 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 4: three scores. It's just like but like, yeah, i'd say, 801 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 4: you know, lay off in cash. But he's the number 802 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 4: one tournament play and as long as he's starting. 803 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I think it's Golfer Mahomes and 804 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,240 Speaker 2: cash Fitzpatrick and GPP. One more quarterback to mention, Philip 805 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 2: Rivers in a really good spot going against just that, 806 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,919 Speaker 2: the hapless defense of the Raiders. What are you doing 807 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,280 Speaker 2: with him? Yeah? 808 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 4: So when I was doing rankings. I you know, I 809 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 4: kind of saw like Rivers wasn't popping up as high 810 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 4: as I thought he would have gone against the Raiders, 811 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 4: And then I started looking into it, and I realized 812 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 4: I had n't projected for a pretty well amount of 813 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 4: pass attempts. And that's because he hasn't cleared thirty attempts 814 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 4: in his last four games. He's only had more than 815 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 4: thirty twice ald season. One of those was against the Chiefs. 816 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 4: Through fifty one times, He's just not throwing a high 817 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 4: volume of pass attempts. And so because the league has 818 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 4: kind of trended towards a scoring explosion, you're seeing more 819 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 4: games where you know, lesser quarterbacks are attempting more passes 820 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 4: and therefore putting up bigger numbers just because the other 821 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: team is doing the same thing. And so I think Rivers, 822 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 4: I don't think he's safe enough for cash, especially because 823 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 4: he doesn't run at all, but I think he is 824 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 4: a great tournament play because that Raiders defense is obviously 825 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:56,959 Speaker 4: checked out. 826 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 2: Okay, let's transition to running backs. Seattle most expensive player 827 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 2: on the slate, highest ownership by the way. Subscribers can 828 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 2: find our rankings each week at Actionnetwork dot Com Slash Fantasy. 829 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 2: He of course is the highest ranked player in those rankings. 830 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 2: What are you doing with Gurley? 831 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 4: So I think this week, depending on how you're building 832 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 4: your lineup, I think it's another one of those weeks 833 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 4: where there's enough on the slate that you could go 834 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 4: away from him if you don't want to pay all 835 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 4: the way up. I think Melvin Gordon in particular, is 836 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 4: in just a great spot. I mean, the player that 837 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 4: benefits the most from the Chargers playing this really balanced 838 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 4: offensive game plan is Gordon. I mentioned the eighty eight 839 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 4: percent snap rate last week. He's got one hundred yards 840 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 4: and or a touchdown in every game, over one hundred 841 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 4: and twenty yards per game from scrimmage. Raiders mentioned getting 842 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 4: blasted by running backs, So I think Gordon's an option. Obviously, 843 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 4: Kareem Hunt is an option, and then Kamara as well. 844 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 4: I mean I talked about the Bengals and their struggles tackling. 845 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 4: You mentioned that they're going to be without linebackers, so 846 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 4: there's definitely a lot of options to kind of go 847 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 4: away from girl in this spot against Seattle, who tends 848 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 4: to play who tends to play him tough for the 849 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 4: most part. I don't ever really feel like not playing girly, 850 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 4: but I don't think he's like a oh my god, 851 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 4: I have to jam him in with some of the 852 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 4: other studbacks in good positions on the sleep. 853 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 2: Okay, let's look at the other side of the rams 854 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 2: Seahawks game. Mike Davis is someone who potentially could be 855 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: popular just depending on what happens with Chris Carson. Right now, 856 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 2: we're expecting him to be out, which would give the 857 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 2: Lion's share, if not like the entire share of the 858 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 2: workload to Mike Davis there and I believe it was 859 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 2: in Week four when he filled in for Chris Carson 860 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 2: and had a pretty big game, going over one hundred yards, 861 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 2: had two touchdowns. What are your thoughts on Davis, And 862 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 2: let's assume it's in this context of Chris Carson not playing. 863 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 4: I love Davis, actually, I thought, I think, you know, 864 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 4: just from watching him, I think he's a really good player. 865 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 4: He always tends to pop on film. I thought the 866 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 4: same thing last year, even though he was behind that 867 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 4: miserable offensive line, so he didn't really get the numbers, 868 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 4: but he had kind of a run with He was 869 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 4: Seattle's best option of all those sales guys last year, 870 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 4: and then this year he's kind of kind of forced 871 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 4: his way into a role. Really, I mean, I think 872 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 4: they start even though they weren't as hot, maybe Pete 873 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 4: Carroll anyway wasn't as high, and Rashad Penny as the 874 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 4: front office, I think they fully intended to kind of 875 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 4: go forward with this, like one A one B split 876 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 4: of Carson and Rashad Penny and Mike Davis kind of 877 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 4: threw a wrench into those plans, and I think that's 878 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 4: for good reason. I think he's probably going to continue 879 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 4: to be a factor even when Carson comes back. But 880 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,839 Speaker 4: if Carson's out, I think you definitely want to want 881 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 4: to fire Davis up in all formats. I mean, the 882 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 4: Rams we know Wade Phillips likes to kind of conceide 883 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 4: the run at times instead of giving up the pass, 884 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 4: and that's kind of born out in their numbers this 885 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 4: year again, they're twelfth in pass defense DVA but twenty 886 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 4: fourth in run defense dvway, so I really will and 887 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 4: let's not forget Seattle is the most run heavy team 888 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 4: in the league, and so I do think you'll see 889 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 4: Penny like I don't think Penny will be confined to 890 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 4: the bench. But I do also think that you could have, 891 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 4: just like Carson has had, I think a thirty carry 892 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 4: game or two. I think you could see Davis put 893 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 4: the ball in his stomach thirty plus times in this 894 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 4: game if Carson is out. 895 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, one guy we mentioned earlier, Dion Lewis and the 896 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 2: revenge game against the New England Patriots. We are projecting 897 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 2: him to be pretty highly owned, which makes sense. If 898 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 2: he has negative game script, he will be a guy 899 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 2: who has the opportunity to get a lot of targets. 900 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 2: If there's positive game script, that's fine for him because 901 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 2: he's out snapping and out touching Derrick Henry anyway. So 902 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: a good kind of all around spot for him. What 903 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 2: are you doing with him? 904 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 4: You know, he's kind of in this weird spot where 905 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 4: I think you know in cash games, it's on draftings. 906 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 4: I think you definitely, I think you consider him on 907 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 4: both spots. It just because of that snap rate at 908 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 4: this point. I mean, I remember doing the podcast last 909 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 4: year and just talking to my d TJ. Hernandez about 910 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 4: the fact that like Dean Wis looked like the best 911 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 4: player on the field for the New England Patriots, down 912 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 4: the stretch last year and when he was given a 913 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 4: heavy workload, and now it kind of looks like the 914 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 4: Titans have kind of figured out that same thing about 915 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 4: Deon Lewis that like, hey, you know, we got Derrick Henry. 916 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,959 Speaker 4: He's this highly drafted guy. We know he can bang. 917 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 4: He's even got some explosiveness to him. He can but 918 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 4: like at the end of the day, like the offense 919 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 4: looks stuck in the mud with Derek Henry's out there, 920 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,720 Speaker 4: Dion Lewis is just kind of he's a difference maker. 921 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,720 Speaker 4: So I think it continues. Don't love the ownership for tournaments. 922 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 4: I think that's where you kind of pivot away because 923 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 4: I mean there's just a wide range of outcomes with 924 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 4: Lewis even considering all that, I mean, it's not like 925 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 4: he's guaranteed for a touchdown or really anything for sure. 926 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 4: We also know that Bill Belichick, you know, has his 927 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 4: ways and who knows what could end up happening. Strange 928 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 4: things happen in Patriots game. So I think the tournaments 929 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 4: there's a lot of leverage to just just going in 930 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,320 Speaker 4: a different direction. I feel a lot more confident about 931 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 4: Davis in tournaments. If Carson is out just because I 932 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 4: think the Workloade will just be so umongous. I think 933 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 4: Seattle's committed to the run. I think that, you know, 934 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 4: even if they start passing the ball, I think Davis 935 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 4: will get work in the passing game as well. It's 936 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 4: a higher projected over under. So I like Davis over 937 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 4: Lewis this week. 938 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,359 Speaker 2: All right, well we're got to talk about here at 939 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 2: the running back position. David Johnson coming off of the 940 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,359 Speaker 2: buy in that Byron Leftwich coordinated offense. What are your 941 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 2: thoughts on him? 942 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 4: I love David Johnson this week. I mean, you're going 943 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 4: against the Kansas City Chiefs. They rank number thirty two, 944 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 4: dead last in run defense DVOA. You have a guy 945 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 4: in David Johnson who, you know, a new offensive coordinator 946 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 4: essentially knew that one of the reasons he even has 947 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 4: a job is because the last offensive coordinator underused David Johnson. 948 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 4: Now they're coming off of a bye. I mean, I 949 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 4: just think that you have to keep kind of using 950 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 4: your common sense in these situations and just saying, you know, 951 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 4: at some point, David Johnson is he's gonna get fed 952 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 4: and he's gonna have his like thirty touch explosion David 953 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 4: Johnson game even when he even though he hasn't been 954 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 4: doing that, he's the floor has been has been decent 955 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 4: for the most part. So I like David Johnson as 956 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 4: a cash play. 957 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. I remember a couple of weeks ago there was 958 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 2: one prop at an online sports book, actually a couple 959 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 2: of props on David Johnson, but like, would he actually 960 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 2: have one hundred yard rushing game this season? Is something 961 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 2: like that. That was one of the props there. So 962 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 2: who knows, Maybe it will work out for you the 963 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 2: one week that he hits it, he will be in 964 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 2: your lineup. Let's talk about the wide receivers Davante Adams 965 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 2: and Marquez Valdez Scantling at home going against Miami MVS 966 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 2: in particular is intriguing giving that Geronimo Allison is now 967 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 2: on IR so MBS is locked in as a starter 968 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 2: and not just a starter like he really at that 969 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 2: point might be the number two receiver within that offense. 970 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 2: Perhaps he's overtaken Randall Cobb. What are your thoughts on 971 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 2: those two guys. 972 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 4: Valda Scantling is like a guy who he he just 973 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,840 Speaker 4: flashes every week, So I think he's It depends on 974 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 4: how roster construction shakes out because if he's going, if 975 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 4: he ends up being the chalkiest, cheap receiver, wide receivers 976 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 4: are always kind of hard to predict. You mentioned Randal Cobb, 977 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 4: who you know, even though Valdez Scantling has been a 978 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 4: little bit more productive Cop and in and out of 979 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,919 Speaker 4: the lineup, Cop still has a twenty percent target share 980 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,399 Speaker 4: in that offense that is still number two on the team. 981 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 4: I also think that when you're going up against the Dolphins, 982 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 4: I'm always looking at these you know, like backs in 983 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 4: ti ends because the Dolphins tend to struggle to cover 984 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 4: those positions just giving some of the personnel. So I 985 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 4: actually think in this game in particular, it's also a 986 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 4: good spot for Jimmy Graham. So kind of a lot 987 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 4: of movie pieces where it's like, I'm not sold on 988 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 4: Nowdaz Scantling like being that like obvious smash, Oh my god, 989 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 4: Like he's a number two guy in the Packers, and 990 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 4: that means he's going to, you know, be he's like 991 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 4: a lock. But if it makes sense from a roster 992 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 4: construction standpoint, I don't think it's like the worst thing 993 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 4: because just because he has a ton of upside and 994 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 4: all receivers are unpredictable anyway, so it's not like you're 995 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 4: giving up a huge floor by playing Valde scanting anyway. 996 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about the Cincinnati New Orleans game. 997 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 2: Michael Thomas, Tyler Boyd. Two guys, we are projecting for 998 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 2: pretty high ownership. How are you approaching them? So? 999 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,240 Speaker 4: I think this is, I mean because of Thomas, because Thomas, 1000 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 4: you know, priced himself up with that monster end of 1001 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 4: the game last week. Not a week where I want 1002 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,399 Speaker 4: to use him necessarily. Uh, you know in this game 1003 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 4: mentioned that, you know, I'm kind of feeling like this 1004 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 4: game may go under. I really like Kamara's matchups, so 1005 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 4: I think that's the player that's top of the list 1006 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,240 Speaker 4: for me to target, especially in cash gas and tournaments. Obviously, 1007 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 4: you know, Michael Thomas liable to go off any given week. 1008 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 4: Although I don't think this is it doesn't me look 1009 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 4: like the smash spot of smash spots Tyler Boyd. He 1010 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 4: scares me a little bit because from just like a 1011 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 4: numbers target, you know, projection perspective, all that he should 1012 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 4: just smash. I mean, there's no forty percent of the 1013 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,360 Speaker 4: air yards are missing, quarters of the targets are missing 1014 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 4: with AJ Green being out, and the Saints are good 1015 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 4: run defending team. But the one the one thing I 1016 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 4: worry about is that it's kind of like maybe a 1017 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 4: similar situation to what would happen in a place like 1018 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 4: Detroit when Golden tates out. But it's like now the 1019 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 4: defense they're treating Boyd as the number one, like they 1020 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 4: have all week to kind of prepare and double triple 1021 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 4: whatever they want to do with Boyd, And so we 1022 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 4: haven't really seen him in this spot ever yet, Like 1023 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 4: this is he's never really been the number one guy before. 1024 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 4: So that's the only thing that kind of scares me 1025 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 4: a little bit into thinking, like, probably not the safest 1026 00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 4: talk so in tournaments, I definitely think you want to 1027 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 4: find ways, and of course it's receiver, so there's many 1028 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 4: ways to go around him. But yeah, I don't think 1029 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 4: he's like a cash game lock either, because I think 1030 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,919 Speaker 4: there's a possibility that New Orleans could just sell out 1031 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 4: to shut him down and make Cincinnati beat them with 1032 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 4: other options who are few and far between him at 1033 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 4: this point. 1034 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:21,799 Speaker 2: All Right, Keenan Allen at the Oakland Raiders. 1035 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,919 Speaker 4: I like it. I would like it a little bit more. 1036 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 4: If Philip Rivers was attempting more than thirty passes a game, 1037 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 4: I think that also makes him a little bit a 1038 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 4: little bit shaky in cash games. I think this is 1039 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 4: like as as most weeks are. I think you want 1040 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 4: to try to lock in that production at running back, 1041 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 4: just to higher floor, and then at receiver. There are 1042 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 4: guy like, for example, Jarvis Landry sitting here at sixty 1043 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 4: two hundred on d K, sixty four hundred on FanDuel. 1044 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 4: He's averaging eleven point one hardest per game. He has 1045 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 4: five or more catches and or a touchdown in eight 1046 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 4: of his nine games. He's going to be in a 1047 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 4: high total game. Like, there are receivers that you can 1048 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 4: kind of get at these mid tier price ranges is 1049 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 4: that have similar kind of Floyd stealing combinations to two 1050 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 4: guys that are a little higher priced, that are just 1051 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 4: a little more a little more trendy. So I think 1052 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 4: that's the roster construction I'll end up favoring this week, 1053 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,800 Speaker 4: just because I don't feel great about the possibility of 1054 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 4: boy being like the focal point of the defense all right. 1055 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 2: I don't think we can move on from wide receivers 1056 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,959 Speaker 2: until we given like the obligatory mentioned to the three 1057 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:25,760 Speaker 2: Rams receivers. There you have Robert Woods, Brandon Cooks, Cooper Cup. 1058 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 2: Thoughts on those three guys, These. 1059 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 4: Guys are kind of smash spots every week. I think 1060 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 4: every week you want to play, if you play tournaments, 1061 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 4: if you play multiple lineups, you want to stack Jared 1062 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 4: Goff with one, if not two of these guys, if 1063 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 4: not with Gurley as well, And so you know, there's 1064 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 4: there's really nothing more to say. I mean, I think 1065 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 4: Cup is the guy that you want to play in 1066 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 4: cash games because he's always been that consistent guy in 1067 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 4: terms of not only catching the passes but getting the 1068 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,480 Speaker 4: red zone targets. That's really important for him. And then 1069 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,240 Speaker 4: Cooks and Woods because Cup is back, make for better 1070 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 4: tournament plays. Would looks like you have the lowest projected ownership. 1071 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 4: That's obviously would be the best tournament play. If that 1072 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 4: if that's actually true, But I think Cupp is the 1073 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:11,359 Speaker 4: guy you want to play in cash games. 1074 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about tight ends quickly, because it's 1075 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 2: a disgusting position outside of Travis Kelcey versus Arizona. But 1076 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 2: I mean there are other guys. There's Burton, there's read 1077 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,280 Speaker 2: there's n joku. How are you addressing this position? 1078 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't really know what to do. Jeff 1079 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 4: Hireman is gone by this week. It is tough. I think. 1080 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 2: It's funny when it's like, I don't know what to 1081 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 2: do because Jeff Hireman. If I had told you when 1082 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 2: the season started that week ten what you're going to 1083 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 2: do with the tight end position was going to inge 1084 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 2: on whether or not Hireman was on by or not 1085 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 2: on By, you would not have believed me. 1086 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's tough, but you know, I do think 1087 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,280 Speaker 4: you know the reason we're saying it's tough is because 1088 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,959 Speaker 4: tight end, being the volatile position that it is, there's 1089 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 4: been some busts over these past few weeks, and what 1090 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 4: that has done is has lowered the prices, and so 1091 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,399 Speaker 4: I think you just take advantage of that. I mean, 1092 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 4: on DraftKings, Trey Burton sitting here at thirty nine hundred 1093 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:13,720 Speaker 4: Detroit is number thirty in DVA versus tight ends. Maybe 1094 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,879 Speaker 4: people won't be quite as enthusiastic about Burton if Alan 1095 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 4: Robinson comes back, especially with Anthony Miller also getting a 1096 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 4: lot of love. But I think Burton's still in a 1097 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 4: really good spot to produce. I think he's a high 1098 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,399 Speaker 4: upside play pretty much every week that he plays. I mean, 1099 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 4: let's not forget he's pretty much a strictly receiver, even 1100 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 4: though he goes as a tight end by name. And 1101 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 4: then on FANDUL you have a couple of guys also 1102 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 4: priced down. Jordan Reid at fifty two hundred, if he 1103 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 4: suits up, would be in a good spot. Tampa Bay 1104 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,319 Speaker 4: ranked number twenty nine in D Day versus tight ends, 1105 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 4: and then David n Djokhu. You know in Baker Mayfield 1106 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 4: six starts five times over fifty hours, six times GOOSEG. 1107 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 4: I mean, it sucks when you hit the gooseg, but 1108 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 4: those are still really good odds. And I think in 1109 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 4: this game against Atlanta, Dean Jones still going to be 1110 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 4: out for one more week over under above fifty. I 1111 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 4: think it's another good spot for in djoku as well. 1112 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 4: So I think you just kind of take advantage of 1113 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 4: those of those guys in cash games, and then in 1114 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 4: tournaments you just either go with Kelsey or you just 1115 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 4: try to find somebody lower owned because a lot of 1116 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,439 Speaker 4: the Titans have pretty similar out So I mentioned Jimmy Graham. 1117 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 4: I kind of like Jimmy Graham is a tournament play. 1118 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 4: I'm going against my. 1119 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 2: M You're in djoku. Description was basically like Russian rolette. 1120 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 4: It was like, I like my odds of not dying until. 1121 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Okay. We're going to close out the show 1122 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 2: with our fourth and Goal segment previewing Sunday Night Football. 1123 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,879 Speaker 2: But first let's kick into Ian Harditz, who runs through 1124 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 2: the key week ten coverage situations. 1125 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 6: The press, the jam, and the five yard bum. Ian 1126 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 6: Harden springs you Dance of the Divas. 1127 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 3: Week ten has seven key wide receiver, cornerback shadow matchups 1128 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 3: versus Hulio Jones was as cornerback Denzel Award the twenty 1129 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 3: eighteen draft number four overall pick his PFS number twelve 1130 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 3: overall corner but Julio has a four inch height advantage 1131 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 3: and forty pound waight advantage and is capable of winning 1132 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 3: any matchup anyway. Alan Robinson is expecting to play this 1133 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:16,240 Speaker 3: week after having this growing injury against Lions cornerback Darius Slay, 1134 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 3: last year's first team All Pro cornerback, is more than 1135 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 3: capable of winning his matchup. A ROBS averaging and career 1136 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 3: low eleven point four yards per reception this season Corey 1137 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,840 Speaker 3: Davis has another tough matchup against Patriots cornerback Stefan Gilmour, 1138 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,399 Speaker 3: who has allowed feer than seventy five total receiving years 1139 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,799 Speaker 3: and six of his seven shadow matchups this year. Mike 1140 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 3: Evans will face off against Redskins cornerback Josh Norman, who 1141 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 3: has allowed over one hundred yards to each of Julio 1142 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 3: Jones and Odell Beckham Junior in his last two shadow matchups. 1143 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 3: Robbie Anderson, if he plays through his ankle injury, will 1144 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 3: face off against Bill's cornerback Terdavius White. Anderson will benefit 1145 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 3: from Josh McCown under center. It's a tough matchup by 1146 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,399 Speaker 3: Anderson did roast White for a thirty yard touchdown during 1147 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 3: their meetings last season. Key Y Hilton is expected to 1148 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 3: be shadowed by Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Last season, Hilton 1149 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 3: caught five passes for seventy eight yards a touchdown on 1150 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:04,280 Speaker 3: fourteen targets in two games under Ramsey's shadow. DeVante Adams 1151 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 3: should see plenty of Dolphins quarterbacks Avi and Howard, who 1152 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,720 Speaker 3: has four interceptions this season but is about three touchdowns 1153 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 3: in coverage, and DeAndre Hopkins showed that he's not a 1154 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 3: matchup wish of fear anyway. Aaron Rodgers number one wide 1155 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,279 Speaker 3: receiver is always one hundred percent matchup proof. My number 1156 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 3: one favorite matchup oy the week is Keenan Allen versus 1157 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:21,799 Speaker 3: the Raiders. He's only had one touchdown this year, but 1158 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 3: Rivers is the only quarterback with multiple touchdowns in every game, 1159 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,560 Speaker 3: so expecting some positive regression in the second half, much 1160 00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 3: like we saw in twenty seventeen. Keenan's facing the Raiders 1161 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 3: bottom two defense in overall and pass DVLA. They're susceptible 1162 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 3: in the slot and on the outside, and Keenan has 1163 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 3: caught at least five passes and five consecutive matchups against 1164 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 3: the Raiders. 1165 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 2: All Right, that was Ian. Be sure to check out 1166 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,359 Speaker 2: his wide receiver cornerback matchup call um each week at 1167 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 2: the Action Network. Chris oh Man. This game the three 1168 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,400 Speaker 2: and five Cowboys at the four and four Eagles. I 1169 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,680 Speaker 2: can't believe this is a Sunday night football game. They 1170 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 2: need to deflex us something better. Eagles favored by seven 1171 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 2: a forty three point over under. The spread is up 1172 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:00,840 Speaker 2: from six, the total is down from three and a half. 1173 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:03,720 Speaker 2: The Cowboys are coming off a disheartening Monday Night football 1174 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 2: loss to the Titans, and they will likely be without 1175 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 2: linebacker Sean Lee. The Eagles are coming off the buy. 1176 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,319 Speaker 2: They have just added Cowboys killer Golden Tate, who now 1177 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 2: will play the Cowboys three times this year, and they 1178 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,800 Speaker 2: are also expecting to get back right tackle Lane Johnson. 1179 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:18,919 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts here? 1180 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, so Cowboy killer Gogan Tate, I think it sets 1181 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 4: up well for him. Dallas is number twenty eight in 1182 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:29,840 Speaker 4: DVA on passes over the middle Zach Ertz. That obviously, 1183 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 4: alto benefits Dallas's twenty fifth versus the tight end in 1184 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 4: their thirtieth indiviway versus short passes as well, So I 1185 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 4: think Ertz Tate, even Agalar. I mean this sets up 1186 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 4: well for the Philadelphia receivers to have a good game. 1187 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,319 Speaker 4: By the way, Carson Wentz sitting around here with a 1188 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,879 Speaker 4: thirteen to two touchdown interception ratio a one o nine 1189 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 4: point six passer rating. I don't think anyone's really talking 1190 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 4: about this because he kind of missed a couple of 1191 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 4: games to start the year, but he's picking up right 1192 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 4: back where he left off. Now he gets another we 1193 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 4: been in Golden Tate. I think that this is going 1194 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,839 Speaker 4: to be a signature game for Phillia. They haven't really 1195 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 4: had a game where they've kind of smashed yet. They 1196 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 4: had that one against the Giants, but I mean that's like, 1197 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 4: come on, I think they'll get it done here. I 1198 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 4: don't like that the spread is moving up. I think 1199 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 4: there was a lot more value with this number at 1200 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:19,799 Speaker 4: six six and a half than at seven, but I'm 1201 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 4: still taking it at seven. And the reason is Jason 1202 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 4: Garrett has just not done a good job of preparing 1203 00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 4: this team in general. Really, I mean, they're always kind 1204 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,399 Speaker 4: of lacking when it comes to the details or certain 1205 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 4: strategic things that they should probably be employing, but especially 1206 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 4: when he's on a short week. So in his career, 1207 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 4: the Cowboys under Jason Garrett are two fourteen and one 1208 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 4: against the spread on a short week. It's essentially the 1209 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 4: dvance Joseph. He's advanced Joseph of short weeks. 1210 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,040 Speaker 2: This is uh, this is horrible. I mean some of 1211 00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:58,919 Speaker 2: that obviously is impacted by the Thanksgiving game, but yeah, 1212 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 2: this it's I mean, it doesn't speak well, it doesn't 1213 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 2: speak well for him. For me, this is easily going 1214 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 2: with Philly yeah, I agree with you everything you said. 1215 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 2: It seems like this will be one of those vintage 1216 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 2: games where the Cowboys really get it handed to them. 1217 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 2: My question, I think almost like the bigger question is, 1218 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,359 Speaker 2: and my dog is barking, she agrees with me that 1219 00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:21,800 Speaker 2: this is a bad game for the Cowboys. Does Jason 1220 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 2: Garrett get fired after this game? Let's imagine a world 1221 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 2: in which the Eagles win by let's say twenty points. 1222 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 2: Does Garrett finally lose his job after this game? 1223 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,560 Speaker 4: I don't think so. But I think I think Jerry 1224 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 4: Jones has kind of been he's kind of been out 1225 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 4: of it that he's not going to do that in 1226 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:39,759 Speaker 4: the middle of the season. I think there's just going 1227 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 4: to be I think the chatter will just get louder. 1228 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 4: But the bottom line is this is this is a 1229 00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 4: good Eagles team that maybe hasn't quite hit it stride yet. 1230 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 4: I don't think you know, if you get blown out 1231 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 4: by the Eagles in the spot. As bad as it 1232 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,480 Speaker 4: sounds coming off of that that loss against Tennessee, which 1233 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,399 Speaker 4: is really the game you had to have, I don't 1234 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 4: think it reflects is poorly on Garrett, just because I 1235 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 4: think this is ay a quality foot team. So I 1236 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 4: don't think he gets fired after this game. I think 1237 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 4: you're just gonna kind of keep on seeing more of 1238 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 4: the same. I think they'll probably continue to force feed 1239 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,319 Speaker 4: to Mark Cooper ball you at twenty five percent of 1240 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 4: the targets, thirty one percent of the air yards in 1241 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:14,840 Speaker 4: his first game in Philly. Even though they're up to 1242 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 4: number seven in DVOA versus number one wide outs, they 1243 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 4: have been a lot better, they're still giving up the 1244 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 4: most scheduled, second most schedule adjusted yards to number ones 1245 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 4: in the league at ninety three point nine. So I 1246 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,600 Speaker 4: think they're just gonna do that, and you know, Garrett's 1247 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 4: gona clap a little bit. They'll probably get blown out 1248 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 4: and you know, same shit different. 1249 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's Sunday Night football. So much for that, Chris, 1250 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 2: you're doing the Monday night came with I on our 1251 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 2: next show.
