We need a vomitorium Hall 6 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: of Fame because there's so much about betting that is disgusting. 7 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: We put ourselves in a position where because we have decided, 8 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: and this is a theme over the course of the year, 9 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: like we had gotten away from our principles, we had 10 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: gotten away from who we are. We were making emotional decisions. 11 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: We were making decisions like by outsmarting ourselves sometimes and 12 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: by we I mean me. But we decided we were 13 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: going to make the right choices and like when we 14 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: saw big numbers we knew were wrong, no matter how 15 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: oast the other side was, we were going to do it. 16 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: And we did that. This week. We bet the Washington 17 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: football team. Talked about betting the Jets will get to that. 18 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: We bet the Eagles. All right, these are the teams. 19 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: These are teams like that getting to the Volmatorium Hall 20 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: of Fame that are so disgusting and cost betters who 21 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: are right in ways that are full on puke inducing, 22 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: and Simon, you'd think that the Jets we had discussed 23 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: on Sunday morning, and we'll get to our text shame 24 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: decision making. I had them on the money line. I 25 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 1: had him get to spread, had him on the money line, 26 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: and I had him as a money line parlay with 27 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: the Washington football team. Naturally, you think they would be 28 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: the first team inducted. But no, We're gonna give it, 29 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: Simon to the Philadelphia Eagles. They are the first members 30 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: of the Volatorium Hall of Fame because they are so 31 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: fucking gross. Carson Wentz's gross. He gets benched. They roared 32 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: back to cover the game. They are covering the game. 33 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: It was an eight and a half point spread. It was. 34 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: They have a drop pass on a third and ten 35 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: in Packer's territory. They don't convert. Then then they give 36 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: up a seventy seven yard touchdown run. Hey Chad, I'm sick. 37 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: I'm sick. It's more sick is that we had him 38 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: in the contest and they were on the right side. Yeah, 39 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: Dawn six. He had the ball and threw that past 40 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: for first down. He drops it and then I think 41 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: either through an interception or I don't know if they 42 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: punted or what like you just said the next the 43 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: next series, they were driving at through interception, trying to 44 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: run the clock out. And we've seen running backs time 45 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: and time again just fall down and bounce. But Aaron 46 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: Jones is playing for a new contract. He needs those touchdowns, 47 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: he needs these numbers, so he wasn't going down. He 48 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: busted off seven year run and just cut us down 49 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: right and there, so that that back door. That was 50 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: a fun ride. But like like we always say, Chad, 51 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: we try not to dwell in the past. Here the 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: Eagles are terrible and you're not gonna let me take 53 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: him this week. But I once again, I'm gonna love 54 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: the Eagles this week. Well we're gonna have to, and 55 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: like if we're sticking by our principles. You know, I 56 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: got a lot of feedback this week, and I appreciate 57 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: I appreciate getting more d MS from our listeners because 58 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: I think people knew I was sad that you were 59 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: getting all the d M s and here I am, 60 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: you know, just a guy, and I wasn't getting any 61 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: d M s um and the Eagles were sick. It 62 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: was gross. It was disgusting. It did make me moan 63 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: on a puke, like to get back in and cover 64 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: that game, and then to give it away on a 65 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: drop pass, and then that that Aaron Jones seventies seven 66 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: yard touchdown run like where he just like zigged and 67 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: zagged and had a couple of shots to tackle him 68 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: and you just missed them. And it was just last Simon. 69 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: We all know the right side is the winning side. 70 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: So we did not get at credit for the game 71 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: we did him, but a three and two weeks. We're 72 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: always happy with three and two weeks. And as our 73 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: fans know, um this very show. Just last week, we 74 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: both talked about how much we love the Washington Football 75 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: team money line. So I don't know what other people 76 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: got it. As soon as I got off the show, 77 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: I got it at like three nine and then three fifty, 78 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: and then by kickoff it was down to two forty. 79 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: So it's still a great value. But we're just so 80 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: sharp chat. I don't know why you part layd with 81 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: the Jets when I'm trying to tank, but most of 82 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: us part layd with the Browns or I had a 83 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: part lady with the Eagles. I had a part lady 84 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: with the forty Niners THO didn't come through, but the 85 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: Browns and the Washington money line parlay. That's gonna cover 86 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: me for the next three weeks. So it's it's Stuffy 87 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: went with the Jets. But I'm telling you and and 88 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: this is not I don't say this, uh with any 89 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: lack of seriousness. I'm pained by sort of my decision 90 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: making on Sunday mornings right now. And I know what 91 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: all the right decisions are on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 92 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: and I'm getting this Sunday and and this week was better. 93 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: I made better decisions based on what I truly believe 94 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: is a better But I'm still like, not like the 95 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Washington money line, I just didn't bet it. I don't 96 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: know why. I don't know why we talked about it. 97 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: I loved it, and I just sort of im I 98 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: think I got so sort of caught up in the 99 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: Jets and I'm like, oh my god, the Jets are 100 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: totally gonna win this game. It's like I had a 101 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: vision of the Jets winning this game even when they 102 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: were down you know, what was it fourteen? I'm like, 103 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: in this game, I had no doubts I had no 104 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: doubts until Derrek Card had the ball with thirty five 105 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: seconds left, and then I'm like, oh, this is when 106 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose the game because because lucky for you, Chad, 107 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: you're not stick in the head. You need to be 108 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: stick in the head. To bet Washington on Tuesday, like 109 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: when we were just when we were talking about it 110 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: felt filthy, but it was just a pure situation. We 111 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,799 Speaker 1: we even broke it down where they're coming off extended 112 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: rest Washington playing a team that just played a divisional 113 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: game on a short week and that they're undefeated, so 114 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: what do we know. Teams just don't go and defeat it. 115 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: So they were due for a loss. So yeah, I 116 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: felt gross betting it. But obviously once the game start, 117 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: I think they're down fourteen nothing. I was just like 118 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: all right, ripping up that ticket. But it worked out. Man, 119 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: that was I think it was some crazy stat They 120 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: were seventy eight and one at home if they're leading 121 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: by fourteen, and man, Washington, COVID, COVID shocking all these records. Alex, 122 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,559 Speaker 1: as we've said in the podcast and and Matt Mitchell, 123 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: we might need like a drop for this. Alex Smith 124 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: professional football Quarterbackack Melbo one of the biggest stuff. Yeah, 125 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: what a weekend for chat you your boy Colt McCoy 126 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: get to win. I mean, look at that money line. 127 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: If you would have done that Alex Smith money line, 128 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: that would have paid. I bet that. Unfortunately had the 129 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: Seahawks and a couple of teasers, um, so I didn't 130 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: touch the Giants moneyline. But wow, man, that defense that 131 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: was That was seriously one of the best games of 132 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: I know people aren't watching it because it was so 133 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: ugly by the under for a decent amount of money 134 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: and that the Yhaks game, and I was locked in. 135 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: I was like, wow, this this is gonna happen. They 136 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: could not move the ball against that team, so pretty 137 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: pretty shocking that the Giants went up to Seattle and 138 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: just one outright, So you're right, we did go three 139 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: and two. We went three into two. And normally I 140 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: do like to come in the pod and marail against 141 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: you for not listening to me, But in truth, I 142 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: do have to give you credit. From Sunday morning, I 143 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: do have to give you credit for flipping us from 144 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: Tennessee to Cleveland. That was a great call and you 145 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: had us put in the paths, which was an amazing call. 146 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: We all thought that game would be about in game coaching. 147 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: It turns out it was just about like pregame preparation, right, 148 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: that was that was a master class and a dunce 149 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: class in pregame preparation. Um So because of that, because 150 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: you made those two fine decisions, I'm okay that you 151 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: ignored me on the cults uh and tried tried to 152 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: get me to you came down. You said it's down 153 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: to Houston and New England. I'm not betting Houston, so 154 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: we had to go with But like, I'm just and 155 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that because while it was the right side, 156 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: I end up being the right side. It was yucky 157 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: and it was a lucky right side. Yeah, that was 158 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: a that I mean, that was heartbreaking that they kept 159 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: showing um Watson on the bench with like a towel 160 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: and it set after the game and it's just like, god, man, 161 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: I wish so bad. I know you do two of 162 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: the Obviously should Chicago drafting him, but anyone but Houston 163 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: because that loss is on him. He fumbled at the 164 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: two yard line the end of the game, like he 165 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't want it, but you just can't you see how 166 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: much that got cares and like how much he puts 167 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,719 Speaker 1: into it and he just has nothing around him. It's 168 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: just they've they've failed Watson in so many ways.

It was a profitable weekend 234 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: for the guys. Lots of ways to follow us and win. 235 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: We got the big balls better the week we got 236 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: the hornets nest. You are still alive in Survivor. Dude, dude, 237 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: we had to do too this week. Um. I don't 238 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: know if a lot of people do it this way, 239 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: but this pro one I do. It's it's hardcore, man, 240 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: And like these dudes are assholes. A lot of these 241 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: guys are older and they don't want to split the pot. 242 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: So like say there's five of us left and we 243 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: could all split it right now for like seventy eight 244 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: grand each. They're grumpy. They're just like, nah, I'm gonna win. 245 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: Keep it going. So we had the Vikings in the radar. 246 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: This is our two teams, and they both back like 247 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: last minute won those games, and all these guys got 248 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: knocked out on Seattle and Pittsburgh. So it's good man. 249 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: We're down to like five or six guys now, and 250 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: it's it's once again, we gotta pick two guys this week. 251 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: The teams we haven't used. So it's getting tough here 252 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: in these final weeks. Well, listen, let's go through some 253 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: games and we'll talk about your survivor pick. The one 254 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: thing I do want to do is I want to 255 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: talk a little bit for a minute about the Cowboys 256 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: and the Ravens. We didn't talk about it last week. 257 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: People asked me about it. I apologize. There just wasn't 258 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: a lineup when we recorded the podcast. Uh, and so 259 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: I didn't have it. The line came up later that day, 260 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: at least as far as I could tell um, there 261 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: wasn't a lineup. I didn't see it in Action Network. 262 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: So they are playing tonight, So people who listen to 263 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: the podcast, you know, in the in the hours between 264 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: when it's loaded and when this game happens. Uh, Baltimore 265 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: was an eight point favorite. Uh eight o'clock tonight on Fox. 266 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: Do you have a take on this game? Yeah? I 267 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: tweeted out that was adding all the NFC East teams 268 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: this weekend. It should be a fun weekend. Right now, 269 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: it's it's two and one. Feeling pretty good with the 270 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: Cowboys here. It's just situational play. It's a big number 271 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: against a team that they got guys coming off COVID list, 272 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: they aren't in a short week. I know how bad 273 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: the Ravens need this game, but the Cowboys haven't played 274 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: for like twelve days, so maybe they'll come out sluggish 275 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: and the Ravens they'll come out quick and they'll get 276 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: an early lead. But I just like this same reason. 277 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: It's Pittsburgh not winning their game. It's just second half. 278 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: You saw how they wore down. It's such a short 279 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: turnaround late in the season. That's a huge number, and 280 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: some books have it up to nine and a half 281 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: now with the Cowboys. So if it's this big, I 282 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: get it. The sharper side or the public must be 283 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: coming in heavy on the Ravens. But I have to 284 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: play the Cowboys here. It's just such a good situation 285 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: where you have to play with this number. I want 286 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: everyone to know that my drink of choice today is 287 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: a mach a team. I'm a huge fan of Macha. 288 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: I buy the cans of powder whish, get up, put 289 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: it in the water. But this time, my wife, who 290 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: makes fun of me for everything I eat and drink, 291 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: she feels it's all a little too precious. And my 292 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: kids call me a bird. Um. She bought these Matcha 293 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: tea bags. She's an architect and one of her clients 294 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: is a health nut and like convinced her about all 295 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: these things that she should be eating and drinking, and 296 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: so she bought these Matcha tea bags. And I'm like, 297 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: oh my god, you got these tea bags. And she's like, yeah, 298 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: it turns out it's amazing for you. I'm like, I've 299 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: literally been saying this for like five years. Chad Millman 300 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: got something right. Well, I got an idea, said I'm 301 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: gonna nail you some bird milk and gets you jack 302 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: because you're pretty skinny. Man, I really think you could 303 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: use some bird milk. I don't even know what bird 304 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: milk is. Yeah, I know, it's a generational thing. See 305 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: how you just called me skinny and you called me 306 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: old and like the one joke? All right, Thursday Night, 307 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: our favorite football team, the New England Patriots. Oh my god, 308 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: this is a no brainer. This is a no brainer. 309 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: They are five point underdogs on the road at the Rams. 310 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: We know they stayed in l A this week because 311 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: they played it so far on Saturday or a Sunday, 312 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: so we know they're in l A. So we know 313 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: they're getting in quality practice time. This is very interesting 314 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: to me, very interesting to me. This came open six 315 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: and a half, it's now five. Our data is showing 316 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: the bets on the Patriots of the money on the Rams. 317 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: Yet the line has moved down, so it's not it's 318 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: a line that's moving in the direction of the bets, 319 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: not the money, which is interesting. Yeah, it's it's true that, 320 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: like normal, in a normal situation, I would um, I 321 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: would take the Rams here because it's a short week 322 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: and it's a Thursday night. But the Patriots blowout. That 323 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: wasn't all about, like we were just saying, it wasn't 324 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: just the coaching. That the special team's performance by the 325 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: Chargers in the history of the Charge of the Ball, 326 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: it's great. I was when the worst special team's performances 327 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: ever that's ever been since they've kept data. So not 328 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: too scared that the New England just blew the team 329 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: out and now they're playing the Rams, and we've seen 330 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. He knows how to stop the Rams. We've 331 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: seen it timetime again Miami Floria running the same defensive 332 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: scheme as the Patriots shut the Rams down. So like 333 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: the number, I like that, it's so big. It's gonna 334 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: be the public side the Patriots eventually, because how do 335 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: you not take this after the win they've just had. 336 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: But I'm with you, man, I'm cool with taking the 337 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: Patriots here. It is gonna be a public side. It's 338 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a massive public side. I don't know that 339 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: we put it in the contest. And one thing I 340 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 1: should point out, and people were asking me about this 341 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: on Sunday and Twitter, like the contest lines lock sometime Thursday, 342 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: and so when people ask us what are the numbers 343 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: we're putting in, and we tell people on Sunday, we're 344 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: we can make our decision on Sunday, but it's got 345 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: to be based on the lines that locked on Thursday. 346 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: So that's why that happens. I'm gonna feel bad if 347 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: like the line opened at six and half and by 348 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: the time the line locks it's a four and a half, 349 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 1: then I'm not gonna want it. Yeah, And I tell 350 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: people too with our contest picks, just tease them. If 351 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: you're like that obstused with the number we got and 352 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: you don't feel comfortable taking the number as is, just 353 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: tease it. Most of the times we lose, we lose 354 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: by half a point or point, so I don't know it. 355 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: We do get the best of numbers, but most of 356 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: the time this year it's has hasn't a matter. It's 357 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: actually gotten this in trouble. So I would say, don't 358 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: worry too much about the number we got. If you're 359 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: that scared, just tease it. But normally whatever number we take, 360 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: whatever number closes that, we still cover that closing number, 361 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: So don't get too upset about it. People. Yeah, you're right, 362 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: by the way, like we have so outsmarter ourselves on 363 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: the number so many times this year. It's but by 364 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: the way, it's why we didn't take the Cardinals this weekend, 365 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: and thank god we didn't. But we didn't like it 366 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: because we moved from three to two and a half 367 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: and it just hasn't come into play. All right, Let's 368 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 1: get onto the early games for Sunday. The Texans are 369 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 1: visiting the Bears, they are one point favorite. Right now. 370 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: This is a trash Bears team. It's a trash Bears team. 371 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 1: It's a trash organization. I say that with a bias. 372 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: Shield your eyes. This team is officially trash. Ryan Pace 373 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: should probably be fired, Matt Negan should probably fired. Mr 374 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: Rubisky should be let go. They kind of gotta blow 375 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: the whole thing up and start over because it's just 376 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: it's going nowhere. The play calling was terrible. Um, when 377 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: the when the Bears were down thirty, were up thirty 378 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: to twenty against the Lions, I said to my kid, like, 379 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: this is exactly where Matthew Stafford wants him. The Lions 380 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: are gonna win this game. My other fear was that 381 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: Trubisky was gonna play so well the Bears decided, Oh 382 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,479 Speaker 1: my god, he's as good as Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson. 383 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: Let's just resign him. So um, I'm taking the Texans 384 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: here in minus one. Bears fans be a little happier. 385 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: At least don't have Carson Wentz locked up for the 386 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: next four years. I like that. By the way. Another 387 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: reason why the Eagles are the initial entrenched into the 388 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: Volnitorium Hall of fame that is cross. It's awful. I mean, 389 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: especially to the tweets coming out right now, like Eagles 390 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: fans are so bitter, like the fact that we passed 391 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: on DK Metcalf and Justin Jefferson for and we have 392 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: by receivers are just terrible. Like alshon Jeffrey, he's been 393 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: back for four games now, we're paying him twelve million 394 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: a year this year. Here's three catches and like ten drops, 395 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: like it's just all falling apart. But yeah, to this 396 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: game with the Bears. I'll take the Bears again. I 397 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: know it's awful. I might be the last guy doing it, 398 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: but home dog, how do you not take the Bears 399 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 1: defense against the Texans. The Texas don't have anyone on defense, 400 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: at least the Bears. We know they have some players 401 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: on defense lit'll be able to get stopped. So let's 402 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: take the better defense and take the Bears here. I 403 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: don't even know if we're gonna put our picks in 404 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: this week, because we do have to choose by one 405 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: of the next two weeks, and it's hard to stay 406 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Yeah, right, exactly in a million years, I 407 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: cannot take the Bears in the spot that's why you 408 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: take the Bears people. You're that from a Bears fans. 409 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: This we fade the emotion. Do not get wrapped up 410 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: in the emotion. We should have known Josh Allen was 411 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: gonna have the game of his life as soon as 412 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: Matt Mitchell is just like they haven't won on a 413 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: Monday Night in twenty two years. It's like, damnit, why 414 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: did I fall into that trap? I should have known 415 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 1: all the Bills fans are off of it. We should 416 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: have known. We should have known, Josh Allen Man. Matt 417 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: Mitchell is the newest Action Network video star. He did 418 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: a video about how much he hates Cliff Kingsbury after 419 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: we did the podcast and it got like forty five 420 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: thousand views. And then he was part of the video 421 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: yesterday that Darren Ravel and he did for our Points 422 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: Bet Fade Ravel partnership in which they each had to 423 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: eat dog food because the Cleveland Brown scored more than 424 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: four points and that videos got like it was amazing. 425 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that Darren we love him Darren, 426 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: but he is so soft. He put like a little 427 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: spoon in his mouth and immediately spread it out. Matt 428 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: Mitchell went bare hand put his hand into their can, 429 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 1: scooped out the dog food and literally put it on 430 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: his tongue and ate it. So there, and you guys 431 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: let him slide on that one. Matt Mitchell's when it 432 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: really took the punishment that this week. Hey, Simon, thanks, 433 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: I did end up eating a pretty good amount of 434 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: dog food yesterday and it's just totally totally disgusting. And 435 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: if anybody wants to hear my two minute rants on 436 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: how much I despise Cliff Kingsbury the dog food of 437 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: late season coaches, I will attach it to the end 438 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: of this episode. So enjoy. Alright, Vikings are at the box. 439 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 1: Vikings are six and a half point dogs. Here. This 440 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: is a really interesting game. We love what's that, don't? 441 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: We love Minnesota here? We love Minnesota. That's what I mean. Yeah, 442 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: it's it's maybe it's gonna bite us, but Minnesota the 443 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: dog complaining in a competitive one PM game. Um, we 444 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: know the Buccaneers haven't been right since the Dealion has 445 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: had a couple injuries against the wrong and just the 446 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: way this schemes it out, Minnesota can beat to the 447 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 1: deep ball. Tampa Bay is on the worst deep ball 448 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: teams in the league, they get beat on big plays. 449 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: So right there, we got a team that likes to 450 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: run it and a team likes take deep shots playing 451 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: against a team that's their two weaknesses. So we'll take 452 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: these big points with the Minnesota and and uh as 453 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: long as it doesn't go below four and a half four, 454 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: I'm happy to take Minnesota competition. So for the record, 455 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: the line right now, it's six and a half. Like 456 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: I said, the bets are coming in in Minnesota. The 457 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: money is coming in on the box. So simon, you 458 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: are going against your professional brethren right here. Yeah, stepping 459 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: into a trap with the public here. But it does 460 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: feel like it's too hot. And if this someone was 461 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: down a little bit, yeah, I'd be on the Buccaneers. 462 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: But at this big of a number, I can't lay 463 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: that many points of the Buccaneers. I agree with you, 464 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: by the way, I've loved this Vikings team. Or year 465 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: you did, you have to, we both got on him. 466 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: I think to win the Super Bowl that's dead. Yeah, 467 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 1: that's dead. You know what though, it's why not? Because 468 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: they might make the playoffs. And if you look at 469 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: the NFC, I think anyone who gets in has a shot, 470 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: you know, what I mean, like the Saints aren't so dominant, 471 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: the Packers aren't so like. It's not like you can't 472 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: figure out the Packers. Yeah, it's it's definitely different than 473 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: last year with forty n and the Chiefs. Especially this 474 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: time of the year, we all kind of knew the 475 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: writing was on the wall. These were the two best 476 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: teams in football, where all these teams of holes. Even 477 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: the Chiefs have holes. I mean they play some of 478 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: these teams that play against You see how a little 479 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: three and out here you keep my homes off the field. 480 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: They can't get a rhythm. The Chiefs can be beaten. 481 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: And the same NFC who feels great about the Green Bead. 482 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: I know it would be great if they got the 483 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: one seed. But just in like that Eagles game, they're 484 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: just one of these teams. They don't they don't they're 485 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: not like great teams just shut teams down. They don't 486 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 1: give them any type of will to come back in 487 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: the games. We see it time to time again with 488 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: Green Bead. They like the Jaguars can back on. They're 489 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: just not a great team. They're very good team, but 490 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: they're not great. So I'm with you that the Vikings 491 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: make it anything can happen, especially in fact they played 492 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: Green Bay twice this year. You love when you're getting 493 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: a dog in the playoffs that's played the same team twice. 494 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: So I still believe in Minnesota, I'm with you all right. 495 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: You see how you know what I did there? I 496 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: turned you back around, Titans. Titans are seven and a 497 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: half point favorites on the road at the Jacks. All 498 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: the money, all the bets coming in on the Titans. Uh. 499 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: Look the Jacks for better for worse. They've been covering 500 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: like they have made it very uncomfortable for people the 501 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks. So having a hard time like 502 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 1: truly understanding. I mean, I don't want to bet this game. 503 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: I want to skip it. But I don't why the 504 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: money is all coming in on the Titans right now. 505 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: I think they're just thinking that the Titans just got 506 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: embarrassed and blowing out at home, going on the road 507 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: playing a divisional game against the team they're far superior. Then, 508 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: Like you just said, the Jacks keep covering. And I 509 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 1: tried to go against it last week with Minnesota and 510 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: it did not work. That Jags were in that game 511 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: the entire time. And yeah, things that bounced their way. 512 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: They literally had an interception bounce out the guy's hands 513 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: into the end zone to their own guy for a touchdown. 514 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: Like the Jags just running hot. So I can see 515 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: what the public is coming on the Titans. But if 516 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: it's seven and a half, I have to take the Jaguars, 517 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna feel great about it, but I'll 518 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: take them. But we'll definitely not have this in the competition. 519 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: Oh god, now, oh goodness. Now, Cowboys on the road. 520 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: Three point favorites against the Bengals. Bets and money coming 521 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: in on the Bengals right now. I mean, obviously we 522 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: can't make a decision on this game until the Cowboys 523 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: played tonight. But let's say the Cowboys come out of this, 524 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: and you know you said you're betting the Cowboys. Let's 525 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: stay they show well against the Ravens. Three point favorites 526 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: on the road. Just so people can get some kind 527 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: of inkling of what you're thinking here. I hate to 528 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 1: do it because I hate the Cowboys, but this slant you. 529 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: Before four and a half, the the Bengals, they got 530 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: they got their covered. We talked like that's the Giants. 531 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: That was everything went right they backdoor. Did they got 532 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: that number? How do you not take the Cowboy? Was 533 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: an Andy Dalton revenge game too, He's coming back to Cincinnati. 534 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: It's I just don't see how since you can score. Um, 535 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: I know Dallas has a bad defense, but man, that's 536 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: that's interesting. You said the public is coming in on 537 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: since I thought they were for sure coming on Dallas 538 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: in the short number. But I'll take usually i'll take 539 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: a home dog here, but i'll take the minus three 540 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: that's sitting at right now. I have to go back 541 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: to my principles here. And if I've got a dog 542 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: of more than three points against a team that's been inconsistent, 543 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: there's just no way I'm doing in a coach where 544 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't think it's are good. There's no way I'm 545 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: taking the Cowboys. Come on, look at me, look at me. 546 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: At some point, you would expect Millman will show some 547 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: signs of nerves. Hasn't done any of that so far. Tonight. 548 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: You know him right? You know, it feels like it 549 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: feels like you're wrong. It's the public play, though, the 550 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: public play. Since it doesn't that scare you, I guess 551 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: that's true. It's rare that the public play is also 552 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: the home dog. That's just because that's how bad Dallas 553 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 1: is though, that's why that's that's a fair bet, all right, 554 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: So you might be on the right side here, hopefully 555 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: all right. Cardinals, Oh god, ah, Cardinals two and a 556 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: half point favorites on the road against the Giants, and 557 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: like Matt Mitchell hates Cliff Kingsbury, the Giants d looks amazing. 558 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is going to be back. Is that accurate? 559 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: Do we know? I think we're gonna realize we even 560 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: cares at this point because if we're if we're betting 561 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: on the Giants, we're simply betting the defense. And I 562 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: should have known better. I should listen to people what 563 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: they were saying. That Kyler wasn't right. He's still hurt, 564 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: and once again in that game he was awful, was 565 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: not running the ball, couldn't make completions. I hate, I 566 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: hate to take the Giants here because I know it's 567 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: gonna be such a public side, but we have to 568 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: take them there. There. The defense match up so well 569 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: against the Cardinals, and I don't feel great about it. 570 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: The fact that they just had this huge win up 571 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: in Seattle. Now they're coming home playing against a team 572 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: that just got blown out at home. But I can't 573 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: take the Cardinals until I find out what the deal 574 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: is with Kylie. I can't put money on them. Again. Well, 575 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: I agree with you, like to me the side you 576 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: take care of the Giants, not the Cardinals in any way. 577 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: And I know maybe that's a little that might be overreactive. Uh, 578 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: and sort of we're going against the Bilow sell High 579 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: principles here, but we're still getting a home team with 580 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: a really good defense, a really good defense, and they've 581 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: been a good defense a year. Uh. Getting the points 582 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: like that, that's sort of you know, if we're talking 583 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 1: about our principles, that to me at weighs a Bilow 584 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: so high. Yep, same page, thinking like a wise guy. 585 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: Broncos on the road at the Panthers three and a 586 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: half point underdogs against Teddy Covers. I gotta take the Broncos, 587 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: but I hate it. But dude, we are so gonna 588 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: put it in the fucking by this week. We don't 589 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: like any single game game I don't know, because it's 590 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: one of those I already can see what's gonna happen. 591 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: But Panthers, I don't know, it's I like them better 592 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: as a dog, and I would like to get better 593 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: if they were at two and a half or three. 594 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: The fact that it's three and a half, I know 595 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: that a bunch are trying to suckt me in here 596 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: and get me to take the Broncos, and it's gonna work. 597 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: It's just I can see it's been a field goal game. 598 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: Both these teams have glory and weaknesses and big strengths. 599 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: But the Panthers, I just I don't know this team. 600 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: They're very inconsistent. Like we saw in the Bikings game, 601 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: they had two defensive touchdowns and they still let the 602 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: Vikings come back and win that game. So another coming 603 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: off of bye week, and the Broncos just had the 604 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: game of the year against the Chiefs. But I had 605 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: to take the Broncos. They're just that's a bit. That's 606 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: a big number for the Carolina team. That's just not 607 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: that good. Here's what you basically just said. You like 608 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: the Panthers more if uh, I think you said the 609 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: game was on the road and they were two and 610 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: a half point underdogs, that's basically what you said. See, 611 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: you'd essentially like it if the line were five and 612 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: a half points different. No, I would like it better 613 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: if they're favor like only two and a half favorite 614 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: or three, I'd feel more people taking them. But the 615 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: fact that the hooks they're just if I know that 616 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: they're stuck immune with the hook. But I just feel 617 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: like the Broncos are gonna be safe side. That's an 618 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: interesting choice, Like most people, and you're right, like this 619 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: is a very public side right now. Most people would 620 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: be like, give me the team off the bar with 621 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: a quarterback who always covers. I guess a team that 622 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: we we just want to sell high. Yeah, we all 623 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: know that bron because they're just absolutely arry one dry 624 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: Lock isn't good. But well, you know what's interesting though, 625 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,479 Speaker 1: Like I thought the stats that they had on Sunday 626 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: night for Drew Lock about the amount that he throws 627 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: down field. He's not accurate and he makes bad decisions, 628 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: but he also is being put in a position where 629 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: he's throwing the ball so much further than anybody else. 630 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: Like I do think that obviously has an impact. And 631 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: maybe if he gets a better offensive coordinator, maybe if 632 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: they get better strategy, then next year he improves a 633 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: little bit because he's not being forced to throw the 634 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: ball so far down feel He's not. He's just dumb. 635 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: He has checkdowns, he doesn't hit the checkdowns. Like I 636 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: watched plenty of film on the Broncos. There's so many 637 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: times he is Philip Lindsay who anytime he touches the ball, 638 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: he could break off at yard catch and he's gonna 639 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: take a deep shot to know a faint and double coverage. 640 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: It's it's more about Drew is just not He's still 641 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: a wondering quarterback. He locks in on guys. So I'm 642 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: with you. I mean, the weapons they have, they're like 643 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy. Some are saying he's the best route running 644 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 1: the league. And he's a rookie, um no a fan, 645 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:05,959 Speaker 1: one of the best tight ends in the league. So 646 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: I like, I like all the weapons around him. And 647 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: this was a big year for June. He has not 648 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: lived up the expectation. So a couple of weeks here 649 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,959 Speaker 1: he could flip the narrative on them. So I like that. 650 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: It's three and a half. I'll take that number. Signon. Uh. 651 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: This is the last game in the early slave the 652 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs the Dolphins. We have not walked into the Hornets nest. 653 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: We have not made our big balls better the week. 654 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: This is the hornets Nest game this week, we're walking 655 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: to walking into hornets and is taking the Dolphins here, 656 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: but we have to take them. We're walking into the 657 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: hornets Nest. I'm walking to a fucking hornets nest, all 658 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: right now, be my companion. The last week, I was 659 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: enraged when I saw two. I was gonna start because 660 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: I had a decent amount of money on Miami. I 661 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: had them in our competition for us too, and I 662 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: switched him out because I'm an idiot for the Eagles. 663 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: Two is not good. He makes so many mistakes that 664 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 1: he's a rook you. I can't fault them like people 665 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: want him to come out and be like Herbert. We 666 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: saw Herbert happened last week. He had a rookie week 667 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: where you just have complete meltdown. That's always gonna be 668 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:12,439 Speaker 1: the scary part of playing Miami. But this is such 669 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: a great play here where the Chiefs just played a 670 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: really tough divisional game, now traveling across country down to 671 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 1: Florida to play the Dolphins, and the Dolphins are catching 672 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: seven a half and it's a little telling where the 673 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: sports book are saying the Dolphins aren't as good as 674 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,240 Speaker 1: people think they are, and this is a big number 675 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: for a team that's gonna be making the playoffs and 676 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, but I'll take it. I might be the 677 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 1: public side taking the Dolphins this week, but I'll take 678 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: it at seven and a half. Well, you're not right now, 679 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 1: Like right now the money and the bets are coming 680 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: in on the Chiefs. But I agree with you, like 681 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: this is too big of a number for a team that, 682 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: other than two h m hmm, is basically fundamentally sound, 683 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: and they played the kind of defense I think that 684 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 1: can match up pretty well with the Chiefs, and so 685 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: I do want to see I'm like, I'm excited to 686 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: see this game. It is a Hornets Nest game because 687 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: you do have to sort of really decide. Okay, I'm 688 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: okay with tah And to me, it's about Brian Flores, 689 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: Like I just think I think he's going to make 690 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: the right coaching decisions and put together a kind of 691 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 1: game plan, especially defensively, that can give Patrick Mahomes a 692 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: little bit of trouble. We saw it against the Broncos, 693 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: We've seen it twice against the Raiders. Like the Chiefs 694 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 1: can be taken out of the rhythm a little bit, 695 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: and the Dolphins I think have the kind of defense 696 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: that can do that. Also, look, I'm gonna like a 697 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: team that is, you know, a seven and a half 698 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: point home underdog. It's the definition of gross to go 699 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: with the seven half point home underdog that is going 700 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 1: against the Super Bowl champs. But like, they're a playoff team. 701 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: It's not like they're the Dolphins of two years ago. 702 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: This is two years ago. This game had been seventeen 703 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: and a half, I would have taken the Dolphins. So 704 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: now they're playoff team. At seven and a half, I 705 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: gotta take the Dolphins. Yeah, And like you just said, 706 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: their defense does exactly what Chiefs do well. So they 707 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: have a great secondary hopefully the Dolphins, they like the 708 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: run of the ball, and they got healthy guys back 709 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,879 Speaker 1: now on that offense. So, like we were just saying, 710 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: if they can control this clock and have a couple 711 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: of three Now with the Chiefs, I love this number 712 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: seven and a half. I love it. That is the 713 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: Hornets nest. All right, all right, let's get onto the 714 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: uh late games, four o'clock games, four or five games. 715 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: Coats at the Raiders, you know where I'm gonna be 716 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: on this. I got like the Cults are two and 717 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: a half point favorites. As much as I love a 718 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: short home dog, I don't love a short home dog 719 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: when it's the Raiders. And I'm not gonna make the 720 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: Devils are big balls better the week I promised, so 721 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: for this week, Las Vegas Raiders, big balls better the week. 722 00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 1: Shut up. No one to take their Raiders. Everyone knows 723 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: they should have loss of the Jets. People are gonna 724 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 1: be coming on the Colts. They're just gonna look at 725 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: the score box and see how well they played in 726 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: the fact that they want in Houston. We talked to 727 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: that in text. While I didn't want to take the Colts, 728 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: I didn't like the folk. Rivers to his turf toe chat. 729 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 1: I've know you've broken every finger on your body, but 730 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you're at turf toe. But it's 731 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: one of those things. Every time you step on your 732 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: big toe and pivot or anything step into a throw, 733 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: it's shooting paint up your leg every time. So Rivers 734 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: he played terrible last week and it didn't matter. I mean, 735 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: his weapons are that good. He just gets to his 736 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: guys and they do all the work. For him. But 737 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: this week with the Raiders. I love that we're buying 738 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: low on the Raiders coming into this game, and the 739 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: fact that, like you just said, they're catching points at home. 740 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: I'll take the right. I'll take the Raiders every time here, 741 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:50,879 Speaker 1: Big Bow Better the week. I can't believe you're doing 742 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: this to me, the last biggest Raiders. I feel like 743 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,399 Speaker 1: I have faded the Raiders every single week this year, 744 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 1: and actually we've done so profitably. How is that possible? 745 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: They're like a play in their playoff team? Yeah, but 746 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 1: like they don't cover. I don't know. I just feel 747 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 1: like every week I'm against the Raiders and I always 748 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: feel good about it. All right, So our Hornets Nest, 749 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: we've gone back to back. Hornets Nest is gonna be 750 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: Dolphins plus seven and a half against the Chiefs, and 751 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: then Big Balls Better the week is gonna be Raiders 752 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 1: plus two and a half against the Cult, which makes 753 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: this next game, Jets visiting Seattle. This is so sad. 754 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams is going to make minced meat a Christmas 755 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: pie of Sam Donald and it's gonna be so upsetting 756 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 1: for the Jets their thirteen and a half point dogs 757 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: because this was their shot. They took their shot, it 758 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 1: didn't work. They gave it all up on an unprecedented 759 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,399 Speaker 1: all out eight men blitz that has never happened with 760 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: this much time left in the game in this scenario. 761 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 1: Uh Stucky and Colin Wilson talked about it on the 762 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: Action Network podcast earlier this week that they went through 763 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: the data and there had never been a play call 764 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: like this where where a defense had sent more than 765 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: six pass rushers on a play like that where the 766 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: Jets lost of the Raiders. So kudos to the Jets 767 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,959 Speaker 1: for finding an unbelievably ostentatious way to take that game. 768 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: It was honestly the right move. Who cares if you 769 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: guys go in sixteen. I know, I know a lot 770 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: of Jets fans in my life. They don't care. They 771 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: just want the end goal, which is a quarterback at 772 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: the number one pick. So if it's Trevor Lawrence, they're 773 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 1: all gonna be happy. They just at this point they 774 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: don't care. Like so, yeah, that was embarrassing, but we've 775 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: all been saying it's going right according to planning for 776 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: the Jets. They're still on pace to be on sixteen. 777 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: So in this game, I usually take the Jets, and 778 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: the fact that the Seahawks haven't played well at home 779 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: without the fans, you've really seen a kind of effect 780 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: on them. But I can't do it. I can't take 781 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: the Jets after what you just said. They played such 782 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: a close game playing a Seahawk team. I just got 783 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 1: embarrassed at home. The Jets defense is nowhere near the 784 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: same level as the Giants defense, So it's scary. It's 785 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: a back door number. But I just I can't see 786 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: them not covering this game by fourteen. So it's thirteen 787 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: a half right now. I had it at fourteen. Uh, 788 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: it's if it's not fourteen, I'm gonna take the Seahawks, 789 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay in the fourteen. I'll take the Seahawks. 790 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: The Jets have been a backdoor team. Remember earlier in 791 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: the year we talked about this, like the Jets found 792 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: ways in garbage time to score points, whether it was 793 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 1: ruining a total or ruining the side. So you know 794 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 1: that's buyer beware. Yeah, And what we really talked about was, um, 795 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: these teams always regressed to a mean or they progressed 796 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: to it. I mean, so the Jets and the Cowboys 797 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: when they start to their own six against the spread 798 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,919 Speaker 1: and the Jags. Even the Jacks had a bad run 799 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: of not covering spreads. Now the Jags have covered I 800 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,240 Speaker 1: think four weeks in a row. The Jets have covered 801 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of weeks. Um, Cowboys, they still cover here 802 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: and there. It's just one of those things. Eventually, the 803 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: line biggest catch up to these numbers. So yeah, it's 804 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: a little scary taking a big, big number like this 805 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 1: or the Seahawks, but I gotta do it. Packers Lions, 806 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: Packers seven point favorites. We've talked about it, like they're 807 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: not a dominant team. So the Packers going on the 808 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: road and Darryl Bevil's second game as interim head coach, 809 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 1: do they cover as more than a touchdown favorite? Oh god, yeah, 810 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: Like I like it better at seven and a half. Um, 811 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 1: I hate it, but we have to, like you just said, 812 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: we have to take the lines in the situation divisional 813 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 1: game at home catching more than a touchdown or a touchdown. 814 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 1: We we know how bad the lines are before people 815 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 1: turn us into us. We get that the lines are terrible, 816 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,280 Speaker 1: but situational play. Packers off the back to back covers, 817 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: now playing Detroit that they just had a huge comeback. 818 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: When I'm right there with you, like like the lines 819 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: this week. There, they're gonna get blown out. We're gonna 820 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: feel like when this game out right, So I like 821 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: the lines this week. Yeah, you gotta take the lines. 822 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 1: It's gross. But we do gross things as better as 823 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: we we stick by our principles, and sometimes sticking by 824 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 1: your principles, I mean doing gross things. Gross gross games 825 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 1: give you winners, buddy. What's the good phrasing here? Gross 826 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: equals most gross equals great gross games. Oh I got it, 827 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: I got it. Gross games equals gross profits. No, no 828 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 1: profits are gross. I will take all the ugly money 829 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: in the world, no gross profits like you know in 830 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: a business like gross profits. Thanks for coming around. Thanks 831 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 1: coming around on my side. It'll educating going on there? 832 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: All right? Falcons minus two and a half? Uh, the Chargers? 833 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: What then do you do with the Chargers? Like these 834 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: are the two teams that like, this is the Volnitorium 835 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: game of the week. Yeah, it's awful, but I have 836 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: to take the Falcons. It's just if it it's under 837 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: a field goal. What do we know about the Chargers? 838 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: They lose close games? So the Charge we get three 839 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: and a half at home, I'd love to take it, 840 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: but I have this number of minus three. The fact 841 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,479 Speaker 1: that's two and a half. I'm gonna take Atlanta. Dude, 842 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: I'm telegraphing here for all of our listeners. But this 843 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 1: is a skip week, Like every single time we're talking 844 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: about a team, I gotta take this. I know. I 845 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: wish I could come with a fake like this is 846 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: my play of the week. I love it. I love it, 847 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: I love it. But we had a big ball. We 848 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: had a big balls better the week than the Raiders. Yeah, 849 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 1: I love that one. But you're not gonna love all 850 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: the games we picked. Man, That's what being a pro 851 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: it's I talked about the time. I might have bet 852 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: all the games, but I'm gonna have three or four 853 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: games I load up on, or three or four totals 854 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: I loaded up on. So I don't feel good about it. 855 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 1: But this is this is a good number of Atlanta. 856 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, I have zero confidence, but I'm taking Atlanta. 857 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 1: My favorite football team, the Washington football team, with professional 858 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: quarterback Alex Smith traveling across the country as three point 859 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: dogs on DraftKings against the forty Niners, probably gonna be 860 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: played in Arizona. I would imagine such a good defensive line. 861 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: They they looked great. But I feel like this is 862 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: when you gotta sell the Washington football team as much 863 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 1: as I hate it, yeah, exactly and not loving this 864 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: whole situation with forty Niners having playing Arizona. I definitely 865 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: think that affected the last game nine. I mean, joshwn 866 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: played out of his mind and that was all Josh 867 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 1: Allen that whole game. But should they should be more 868 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,720 Speaker 1: comfortable now it's week two, They've been there, the football 869 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: team coming off the win of wins. They're all on 870 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: twitters like putting laugh out out at the Steelers and 871 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: being cocky. You know they're five and seven. This is 872 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 1: a great under game too. But yeah, I'm right there 873 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: with you. Forty nine minus three and a half. I 874 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: just I could see the defense of the forty Niners 875 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: bouncing back after such a bad week last week. Robert 876 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 1: Sela is playing for his head coaching career to go 877 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: to the Detroit Lions. He's got to have a good 878 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,479 Speaker 1: showing this week. See, I still can't believe he didn't 879 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 1: get a job last year where he was the only 880 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: guy that even slightly shut down the Chiefs. Remember the 881 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 1: Chiefs were losing fourteen to ten heading into the fourth quarter, 882 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 1: and then my home's just had a magical playing on 883 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: the third down. The complete shook that game. I can't 884 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: believe you didn't get a job off for last year. Like, 885 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 1: I know the way the league's going where it's pretty 886 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: stupid nowadays to hire a defensive coach as your head coach, 887 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 1: just because it's all offense. Now, if you have a 888 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: great offense, it's it's usually gonna overstep a great defensive coach. 889 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 1: So I love the guy, and you're exactly right. He 890 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: he he needs a couple of wins here to get 891 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: his name back in the run and give me a 892 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 1: head coaching again. It's gonna be interesting. The there's a 893 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: bunch of state legislators in in Michigan who sent a 894 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: letter of the Lions to have him beat their head coach. 895 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: If i'm him, I'm like, oh, why do you guys 896 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: do that? Like what owner is gonna go hire someone 897 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: that politicians are begging them to hire, especially in the 898 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 1: state like Michigan that has not figured out Flint Michigan's 899 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,919 Speaker 1: water situation. It feels like they have more pression issues. 900 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 1: They should be worried about them. The head coach of 901 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: the Troit lines, Jesus, it's true. Uh Saints, Is this 902 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:21,879 Speaker 1: the week Drew Brees back seven point favorites against the 903 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 1: Philadelphia vomitoriums? No no, no, no, no, no no no. 904 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 1: I like it. I love it. Uh yeah, it's it's 905 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: a classic. No one's gonna bet the Eagles because that 906 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: me and for the guys that still have money left 907 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: from Detton on the Eagles. Um, I would love it 908 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: phil Hell again because that'd be a fun matchup him 909 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 1: Bress hurts if it is hurts being the starting starting 910 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Eagles. But yeah, we'll pass on it 911 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 1: because it's too much unknown. We don't know who if 912 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: Drew Brees is playing, we don't know if Carson wants 913 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,439 Speaker 1: it's playing. So I'm not even gonna touch this number 914 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: right now. It's one of these few games I won't 915 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,279 Speaker 1: today after the podcast. By the way, as you were saying, 916 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to be one of the four people that 917 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: bets the Eagles. Swear to God, that's happened on the 918 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 1: Action Network website where I track all the betting percentages 919 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: and the money percentages. Um, the Saints bet percentage lit 920 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: up and increased because as you were talking, someone came 921 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,720 Speaker 1: in and beout the Saints. It might have been Matt Mitchell. 922 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: He's the only one here in this live and he 923 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: might have heard you were bet in the Eagles, so 924 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: he came in on the Saints. That's good to hear though. 925 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: I like that. I mean, it makes me feeling better 926 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 1: about the Eagles. Of the publics and keep coming in 927 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: because no one, like you just said, no one wants 928 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 1: to bet the Eagles this week. This is the This 929 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 1: is why I had to keep betting on. They're just 930 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 1: an ugly team that finds way to cover, and last 931 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: week didn't work out for me. Hopefully this week it does. 932 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 1: The Buffalo Bills are making their second straight appearance in 933 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: prime time, this time Sunday Night, hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers. 934 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: There are two point favorites the Steelers. Um, this is 935 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 1: a Bilow Cell high, except the Steelers kind of looked 936 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: like the less than outstanding undefeated team that we all 937 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: thought they were, and the Bills look good, like not 938 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:12,320 Speaker 1: just oh my god, they're back good, but it looked 939 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,240 Speaker 1: like all cylinders were hitting to me against a really 940 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 1: really well coached team. The Bills make me want something. 941 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 1: Sound through your hands uping sound, throw your hand back 942 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: to south from now the Bills. I'm making it happen. Now, 943 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 1: stand up, not Tramona. Yeah, I might be stepping in 944 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: front of it here with Pittsburgh, but like you just said, 945 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: I had to take him here. That Josh Challen is 946 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: what he's always been. He's inconsistent. He has moments are brilliants, 947 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: games are brilliance, but we haven't seen him put together 948 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 1: four or five great games in a row where he's 949 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: just really good not turning the ball over. So Pittsburgh 950 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: gonna be really mad playing against a Buffalo team that 951 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: just had a huge win. I'm prime time. I well 952 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 1: the fact that the public is coming in on Buffalo. 953 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 1: Everyone's down Pittsburgh. Everyone thinks they're frall. It's because they 954 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 1: lost a game. They're eleven on one. They only can 955 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 1: beat the teams put in front of them. Yeah, they 956 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: have some weaknesses. They can't run the ball, they passed 957 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,760 Speaker 1: too much. The defense keeps losing guys in important positions. 958 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 1: But I don't know, it just feels like once the 959 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 1: public leaves the team. That's why I usually to get 960 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,399 Speaker 1: it on. So with the Steelers here, I paid him 961 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 1: last week. This week I'm probably come back in on 962 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: the Steelers. What do you have this game power rated at? 963 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 1: I had it at a pick. So the fact that 964 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: I moved just one point one and a half point 965 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 1: not that much value. But the public keeps coming in 966 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: on this, that the noise keeps coming out of Pittsburgh. 967 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: They have a lot of injuries, so probably go up 968 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: to plus three, So I would wait on that in 969 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: this number. I love that you basically you said everything 970 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: that was bad. Uh, the Steelers have a horrible run 971 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:55,359 Speaker 1: pass ratio. Yeah, they keep using their best players. Yeah, 972 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 1: there are injuries abound. Uh, they're going on the road 973 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: for whatever that means. In bills are getting healthy here 974 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 1: because the public, because the public loves the bills, you 975 00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 1: gotta go in on the steward. Yeah, it's profitable. I 976 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 1: like Matt Mitchell asked me why the hell wasn't my 977 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 1: bed in Denver on Sunday night with that big number, 978 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 1: and I simply said, I'm a coward and I should have. Yeah, 979 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: you're just a goddamn color. I won't have songs of pitches. 980 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: We're afraid to fight staining up this place of honor here. 981 00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: God damn coward, it's the right side whenever the public 982 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,359 Speaker 1: comes in. Really had me on one side, especially these 983 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 1: prime time games. It's been working out for you, just 984 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 1: to fade him. So that was my mistake, not taking Denver. 985 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 1: So this week, I'm not gonna let it happen again. 986 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 1: I don't care if it is not good, they don't 987 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: look good. I'm taking it all right. The last prime 988 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,359 Speaker 1: time game of the week, the last game of the week, 989 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: the Monday night game between the Ravens and the Browns 990 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 1: in Cleveland. Uh. Public coming in on Cleveland largely because 991 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 1: we haven't seen what Cleveland can do tonight on Tuesday night. 992 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: So what's your take care, let's pick. I love it. 993 00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: I would love it. I would be even better too 994 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 1: if the Ravens were just lose this game tonight, because 995 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: I want to get crazy value on the Ravens. But 996 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: Ravens always scheme and matchup well with the Browns. The Browns, 997 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: uh was it last year? They gave him one of 998 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 1: the only two losses they had. They went to I 999 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: think it was like two or three. They went to 1000 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,799 Speaker 1: Baltimore and beat the crap out of them and kind 1001 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: of threw us off the scent that the Ravens are 1002 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna be really legit last year and they just went 1003 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 1: on a crazy run and pretty much one of all 1004 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: the games where this year, first game, first week of 1005 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: the year, the Ravens played them, and the Ravens put 1006 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 1: it to him. And we know the Browns have improved, 1007 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: but the Browns are coming off the biggest one of 1008 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:37,919 Speaker 1: the year for them. They just beat a playoff team 1009 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 1: on the road, and I I cannot do it. I 1010 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 1: cannot put money on the Browns after that kind of went. 1011 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 1: They have to have all letdown game here. So I 1012 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:51,520 Speaker 1: do like the Ravens in this position. Since we've been talking, um, 1013 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: Matt Mitchell slacked me and let me know that Jalen 1014 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 1: Hurts has officially been named the starter for the Philadelphia 1015 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 1: Eagles this weekend. I heartbroken. I I loved Carson, I 1016 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: loved his upside, but but he's never bounced back from 1017 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,319 Speaker 1: these injuries. If this is an Eagles fan, if we 1018 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 1: trade him in the off season to the Jets or 1019 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay or whoever, I'm sad, but Carson, He's just 1020 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 1: not You have to be really mentally tough to be 1021 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 1: a quarterback here in Philadelphia. People are just super negative 1022 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 1: in this area. People when Doug Pierson fired, Right, this 1023 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 1: man has taken us to the playoffs three straight years. 1024 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: I want us to super Bowl. Okay, let's le that'd 1025 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 1: let you know what kind of people I'm dealing with 1026 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 1: here in Philadelphia. Like they're just cut throat, man, They 1027 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,240 Speaker 1: just they just want the best every time. So that's sad, 1028 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: But they have to let her to play the rest 1029 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:41,840 Speaker 1: of the year. We're not going to make the playoffs. 1030 00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: It looks like this division is either they mean the 1031 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 1: Giants for Washington. So I'm not I'm not. I'm not 1032 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 1: gonna say it's the end for Carson in Philadelphia, but 1033 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 1: it kind of feels like if Hurts just wins two 1034 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:56,399 Speaker 1: games here at the next three or four, that's that's 1035 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: it for Carson. So back to that game, I guess 1036 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 1: I would take the seven half now that I do 1037 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: know it. It's because you have a full week for 1038 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: practice and he'll be the number one going into the 1039 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: whole week. But I'm where that we're not putting in 1040 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: the competition. I'm done putting the Eagles in our competition. 1041 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: Good by the way, I love how you say. You 1042 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: love how you say. That's the kind of people we're 1043 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,280 Speaker 1: dealing with here. Is if you're like you're some part 1044 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 1: of like the organization, or you're above it all because 1045 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,919 Speaker 1: you're professional, better and you're more rational, whatever the case 1046 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,439 Speaker 1: may be, that's what we're dealing with here. Well, listen, 1047 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 1: I grew up on w i P like Philly sports 1048 00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,880 Speaker 1: talker radio, and it's probably been a solid I mean, 1049 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 1: it might be the Super Bowl's last time I risten 1050 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:39,719 Speaker 1: listen to the radio, just because it's never ending negative 1051 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 1: Philadelphia fans. Man, people, they're just negative people here. So 1052 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,120 Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying. It's a lot to deal 1053 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: with here in Philadelphia. I get it. I get it. 1054 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:49,799 Speaker 1: Right now, we've got to get to your survivor pick. 1055 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,680 Speaker 1: But right now, uh well, actually, let's get to your 1056 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 1: survivor pick, and then let's let's run through the games 1057 00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 1: that we've flagged. Another indication of why I think there 1058 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 1: should be the buyer week for us is because I 1059 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: do see, like, so far, only five games that we 1060 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 1: felt even remotely comfortable enough about discussing. So I feel 1061 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 1: like we're we're finding an answer for ourselves. But let's 1062 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: talk survivor for a second. If you gotta put in two, 1063 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 1: who are you putting in? So this is a tough 1064 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 1: week with a survivor because it's like you just said, 1065 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: I have to do too, and it's getting low here. 1066 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 1: So the one I've been saving for this week, it 1067 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:28,320 Speaker 1: was the Seahawks, so we got them locked in against 1068 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: the Jets. This next one's tough, man, I gotta take 1069 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: a team here that I don't feel good about and 1070 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:40,879 Speaker 1: no one likes. So I guess I have to do Titans, man, 1071 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: because they're playing the Jaguars. I just don't know. I 1072 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,279 Speaker 1: just can't see them dropping this game. That Titans. This 1073 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:50,319 Speaker 1: is like again they desperately need against a team that's 1074 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 1: trying to kind of tank. I know the Jacks are 1075 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: not really trying to thank they're trying to win too, 1076 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 1: but they're just not good. So from my two picks 1077 00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 1: this week, I'm going Seahawks and the Titans. The Ox 1078 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: and Titans. So here's the roundup, folks. If we put 1079 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: our picks into the contest for draftings this week, and 1080 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 1: again we need one more bye week, uh bacond place um, 1081 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: and then we got to finish out the season, so 1082 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 1: it's very possible that we choose Week fourteens to buy. 1083 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 1: I will keep everybody updated either way. I will put 1084 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: picks into the app of what we would normally do, 1085 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: just so you can keep track of it.

Hashtag. Simon says bet like 1140 00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 1: an Insider. Dr wilk even though I kind of was 1141 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: a loser in this review.

He could be the sole 1151 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: reason why centnership is going up if you can get everybody. 1152 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 1: What he should do is get everybody on the assembly 1153 00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 1: line listening and they can all listen to it together 1154 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 1: and they can talk about it. It It could be like 1155 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 1: what they talk about and they can buy that assembly 1156 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:13,200 Speaker 1: line after we give out all these winners. Fuck yeah, 1157 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: stick it to the man, Hayden. Before we sign off here, 1158 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: I am going to attach a two minute rant about 1159 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, recorded before they kicked off against the Rams 1160 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Hey, guys, I want to talk to you 1161 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 1: today about Cliff fucking Kingsbury. Now, I am not an 1162 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: analyst with the Action Network. They Action Work has people 1163 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:39,439 Speaker 1: who are elite at handicapping games. That's not me. I'm 1164 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,920 Speaker 1: elite at finding audio clips of Chad Noman and then 1165 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: using those clips out of context like this, Dad, Dad, 1166 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 1: I have an erection now. Uh. One of the reasons 1167 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 1: I'm so untrustworthy as an analyst is because I let 1168 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 1: deep seated personal animosities cloud by judgment, particularly against coaching, 1169 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 1: is particularly Cliff fucking Kingsbury. I never end seasons betting 1170 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 1: on Cliff Kingsbury because at the end of a year, 1171 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 1: things like personnel management and scheme updates, coaching becomes extra 1172 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 1: important and Cliff Kingsbury fucking sucks and all of that ship. 1173 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Um And how do I know that, Well, let's just 1174 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: look at how he's ended every season. He's been a 1175 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 1: goddamn head coach who started in twenty thirteen. Okay, here 1176 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 1: we go, he lost five of his last six. The 1177 01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 1: next year at four of five, the last fifteen, he 1178 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: lost four six. Twenty sixteen he lost six of eight. Um, 1179 01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 1: and including his Bowl game, but that really doesn't count 1180 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: because he had a he had a awful quarterback. Oh no, 1181 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 1: that was Patrick fucking Mahomes was his quarterback, and he 1182 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 1: still lost six of his last eight. Twenty seventeen, he 1183 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:51,480 Speaker 1: also lost six of his last eight eighteen, he lost 1184 01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:55,360 Speaker 1: five straight. Twenty nineteen, He's in the goddamn NFL for 1185 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:58,280 Speaker 1: some reason, and he lost seven of nine. And then 1186 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,720 Speaker 1: this year, if it weren't for a fun Hail Mary, 1187 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: he would have lost the last four. So um, I'm 1188 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 1: sure you're thinking, surely this is also kind of fucking coincidence. Yeah, 1189 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,080 Speaker 1: here's another coincidence. When you put your gentles in a 1190 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: piano and slam the lid coincidentally, it will hurt. So 1191 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you if you like fucking Arizona today 1192 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: to bet the Rams. I'm just saying, maybe don't bet 1193 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 1: the game at all. Maybe Arizona, like every Cliff Kingsbury 1194 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: fucking team, is sliding into the fucking abyss to end 1195 01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 1: the season. Or maybe that was all just a crazy coincidence, 1196 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,240 Speaker 1: So do whatever the funk you want. Have a great time, 1197 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 1: Happy holidays, all right. This has been the Favorites from 1198 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 1: the Action Network.
