1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Welcome and everybody to betting pros. Is time to place 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 1: your bets as me Joey Pa Joe pis Apia and 3 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: this is bp NFL. It's week eight. It's time to 4 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: dig deep, go behind enemy lines, so to speak with 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: our good friend, the data scientist Sam Hoppin to make 6 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: sure we get the right numbers, the right trends, and 7 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: keep an eye on those lines as we move through 8 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: Week eight. Here, Sam, a lot of injuries continue to 9 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: pile up and certainly are going to affect a lot 10 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: of things. And before we even dive in to anything 11 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: else that was on the agenda, I think we got 12 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: to talk about the injuries from last night's Monday night 13 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 1: football game for the Buccaneers. Chris Godwin devastating injury out 14 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: for the year most likely. You know, we're still waiting 15 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: on the official official word, but I think we know 16 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: where things are going. And then Mike Evins with the 17 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. So all of a sudden, Tampa Bay is 18 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: in a tough spot. Did that game last night, between 19 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: the loss and the injuries, possibly cost them the division 20 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: As we look right now, the division is set at 21 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: Atlanta minus one eighty in most markets, Tampa Bay plus 22 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: one seventy five. Is this Atlanta basically now having an 23 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: opportunity to pull away with all of those weapons now 24 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: missing for quite some time potentially for the Buccaneers. 25 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Atlanta's certainly in the driver's seat here. They have 26 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: a game against each other this upcoming week, so that'll 27 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 2: be a huge factor. The Falcons have already beaten the 28 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: Bucks a couple of weeks ago, so if they go 29 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 2: up to zero against them in the season long series, 30 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: then that will go a long way, especially in a 31 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 2: tie breaker. But the Falcons, I'm looking at impredictable here, 32 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: which I've mentioned a couple of times on the show 33 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 2: so far this year. They look at betting lines out 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: to the future to generate power ratings, and according to them, 35 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 2: Atlanta has the thirty first hardest strength of schedule, so 36 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: the second easiest. Now, I will say the team at 37 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: thirty two is the New Orleans Saints, who are twenty 38 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: to one to win the division. They're only two games back. 39 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: They have a game to the Falcons already, but they 40 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: do play again in week eighteen. We're gonna talk about 41 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: the Saints in a little bit, but it seems like 42 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: they're getting healthier on offense could potentially get Derek Carr 43 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: back this week again, being only two games back. Like, 44 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: I don't think I love the Falcons so much that 45 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: it's theirs, you know, for the tip, you know by default. Yeah, 46 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 2: they're certainly in the driver's seat, like I said, But 47 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: we've still got over half a season left. There's there's 48 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: a lot that can. 49 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: Change, so luckily, and there's a lot more to bet on, 50 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 1: and we're gonna get to some of the lines of 51 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: the week. Before we get to those lines, don't forget 52 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: assigned Michael's straighthand jersey giveaway. It's still going on.

All right, 68 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: let's talk about the lines and potential movement here. Let's 69 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: start with the Cardinals and Dolphins. Now, the Tua expectation 70 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: is that he plays. What does that do potentially to 71 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: this line once we get official word and is now 72 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: the best time to be betting on it or do 73 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: you want to wait? 74 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? I do think the early line is indicating that 75 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 2: he will play. The Cardinals opened as excuse me, the 76 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: Dolphins opened as three point favorites against the Cardinals. That's 77 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: moved out to Dolphins by three and a half in 78 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: some places. He's expected to start practicing on Wednesday, and 79 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: according to McDaniel's concussion clearance, won't comment till after he 80 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: gets some activity in. But I think the time to 81 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: bet it is now. The Cardinals are in a pretty 82 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: bad situation overall, the coming off of a short week, 83 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: having just played on Monday night football. They are traveling, 84 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 2: traveling cross country to Miami and playing in the early slot. 85 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: And again West Coast teams playing in that early slot 86 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: is not ideal. Uh. The Cardinals also had Sean Murphrey bunting. 87 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 2: They're they're going to back leave Monday's game early against 88 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 2: the Chargers with a neck injury. So again, if if 89 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 2: you believe that to what's going to play, now is 90 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: the time to bet it. I don't know that the 91 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: line changes that much. If he you know, is deemed 92 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 2: active and playing, it would obviously shift a lot towards 93 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: the Cardinals if he's wild in active. But I think 94 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: if you're you're in on to a playing, then now 95 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: is the time to bet it. 96 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, boy kaa Arizona came out with a W. That's 97 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: that's a very winnable game for the Chargers yesterday. You 98 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: know that's a difference here. Yeah, it's true. To stop 99 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: me if you heard this, folks. Very frustrating. So now 100 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers are five hundred, they're going to be at 101 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: home this time and facing the Saints. Now we don't 102 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: know if Derek Carr is gonna play, So a lot 103 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: of this line movement and don't forget. You could set 104 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: the line alerts over on the BP app, download the 105 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: VP app. Set the line alerts so you know when 106 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: this movement happens. In case you want to go bet it, 107 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: you know when you have more clarity of what's going on. 108 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: You can find the best spot too. And one you 109 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: download the app too, don't forget FP free put that 110 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: code in.

Use the premium tools again FP free. That's 114 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: the code we're doing. But back to the Chargers and 115 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: Saints right now. Derek Carr trying to get back sooner 116 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: than later here the Olave injury, the Shaheed injury. I mean, 117 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: his team is basically, you know, had the worst luck 118 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: over a three weeks they could possibly imagine after a 119 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: really good start to the year where all of a 120 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: sudden there was optimism. So is there room to be 121 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: optimism again or optimistic I should say again for this 122 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints team. Here if Derek Carr can get 123 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: back on track, or are the Chargers now after this 124 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: Los is going to be too tough to handle. 125 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 2: I do think so. The a buddy of min Drew 126 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: Denzik has coined the term the widows Maker spot for 127 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 2: the Chargers because they are coming off of a short 128 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,679 Speaker 2: week having played on Monday Night Football, and the Saints 129 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: are coming off of extended rest having played on Thursday 130 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: Night Football the week before, so there's certainly that going 131 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: in favor of the Saints. It seems like New Orleans 132 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: could get both Chris Olave and Taysom Hill back, which 133 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 2: even if Carr is not starting, would be huge for 134 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 2: that offense where she'd obviously unfortunately out for the season. 135 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: And and it sounds like Derek Carr is again going 136 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: to be having some throwing sessions earlier this week to 137 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 2: test out where he's at with the injury. If he 138 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: can't go, then it will be Spencer Rattler. But this 139 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: line open with the Chargers as six and a half 140 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: point favorites. We've seen that cross the key number in 141 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: seven and go out to the Chargers favored by seven 142 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: and a half. So I do think that that seven 143 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: and a half is a lot for a Chargers team 144 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: that plays slow. They are passing a little bit more, 145 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: which is something to keep keep an eye on. But 146 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: they play slow. The defense is pretty good, but they 147 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: just don't have the explosivity on offense and aren't able 148 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: to end the drives really with touchdowns at this point. 149 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: So on the negative injury front for the Saints, marsha 150 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: On Latimore left Thursday Night Football with a hamstring injury. 151 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: He's expected to be fine, but they're left guard Nick 152 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: Saladavari is week to week that offensive line continues to 153 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: shift players around and around like a carousel and just 154 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: filtering guys in and out. So I do again think 155 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 2: the Saints could be in a position if they certainly 156 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: if they get car back, but even without him to 157 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: potentially cover that seven and a half. 158 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: All Right, there's a theme here obviously in this segment 159 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: of the show, because the next game we're going to 160 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: talk about is the Washington Commanders, and we know the 161 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: health of Jayde Daniels is a little questionable right now. 162 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: We had the rib injury. Now luckily no fracture there, 163 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: so that's a good thing. Big game this week with 164 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: the Bears coming off thereby, so they were in London 165 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: then on the bye, a little bit of extra time here. 166 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: Kayleb Williams coming off his best performance, probably hearing a 167 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: lot of noise about Jaydan Daniels has been the rookie 168 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: of the year and Kayleb Williams, you know, saying, hey, 169 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: what about me? I'm still here and there's still, as 170 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: you pointed out, Sam, half a season left to go. 171 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the impact of the Jaydan Daniels 172 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: elthon this game, what it might mean to the line 173 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: and also what the last time you saw the Bears 174 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: offense out there looking pretty solid, cold, commit, really working 175 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: himself in. You've got everybody you know on that wide 176 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: receiver group finally healthy. So that's a big push here 177 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: right now for Kayleb Williams. This is a big moment. 178 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: The two rookies, the number one and number two overall pick, 179 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: going head to head in this game. So what are 180 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: you looking for with the lines here? Is this the 181 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: time to benet or again? Do we want more clarity 182 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: before we go into this one? 183 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm willing to wait right now. This this 184 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 2: game open with Washington is one and a half point 185 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: favorites shifted to Chicago's one and a half point favorites 186 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 2: on Sunday night. Now it's out of Chicago by two 187 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 2: and a half. On the news of Jaden Daniels' health. Again, 188 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: his status remains uncertain. He's considered a week tw week 189 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 2: as of Monday, dan Quinn saying they're hopeful he can 190 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 2: play on Sunday afternoon. Obviously the NFL hopeful he can 191 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 2: play too, with the number one two overall picks playing 192 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: in the late afternoon. But I do think the Commanders 193 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: will sort of hold this injury information a little close 194 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 2: to their best throughout the week, play it again day 195 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: by day, not really give an indication until you know 196 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 2: Friday Saturday is to whether he's going to play. So 197 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: if you do, I personally would prefer to wait to 198 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 2: bet on the Commanders, specifically until I hear about Jayden 199 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 2: Daniels and whether he's going to play, because I only 200 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: want to bet on them if he is going to play, 201 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: and I'm not worried about laying, you know, one and 202 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: a half points if the line does shift back out 203 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 2: to that with Daniels playing the other Another notable thing 204 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 2: for the Commanders, they're left tackle Brandon Coleman is in 205 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 2: concussion protocol, so we'll see whether he's able to go, 206 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: and the Bear secondary has a lot of questionable tags 207 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 2: right now as well. Tyree Stevenson and Takwan Brisker didn't 208 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 2: play in their game in London. Kylie Gordon left the 209 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,319 Speaker 2: London game early with an injury, so again, this will 210 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 2: be probably the Commander's most difficult defensive test so far 211 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: this year, going against Chicago. But if Chicago's down a 212 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 2: couple of those key players and Daniels is playing, then 213 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 2: I really like the Commanders. 214 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's move on here to look into the future. 215 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: Were already kind of touched on some division futures earlier 216 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: in the show, but don't forget.

All right, let's get a 233 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 1: look at the future here. Let's talk about the next 234 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: thing on the docket, which is the offensive Rookie of 235 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: the year, which is a perfect time considering this head 236 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: to head matchup that we're going to get now on 237 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: most boards, as you're looking at Rookie of the year, 238 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, we had Caleb Williams in 239 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: the heavy favorite, Marvin Harris was in that two spot, 240 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: Daniel's in the three of plus six fifty. We were 241 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: very much on Jade Daniels and the plus six fifty 242 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: as the best value that looked really good. Now we're 243 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: in sort of a different vein here into week eight. 244 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: Jane Daniels minus one to fifteen. He's the leader. Caleb 245 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: Williams of plus one hundred, Malik neighbors the distant number 246 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: three a plus sixteen one hundred coming off a couple 247 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: missed weeks in the down performance last week. But it 248 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: really does feel like a two horse race between the 249 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: two qbs, so with what we've seen so far and 250 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: maybe what we're projecting into the future, or how do 251 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,479 Speaker 1: you see this race at the current state it is, Sam. 252 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do think it is obviously, like you mentioned 253 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: a two horse race here with Daniels and Williams playing, 254 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: But you know, I think I think I mentioned it 255 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 2: on this show. Like the way Jayden Daniels plays it 256 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 2: sort of seemed like he was asking to get hurt. 257 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 2: So even if you know he does come back only 258 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: potentially misses one game, I you know, I think there's 259 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: a higher risk of him potentially getting injured again, to 260 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: the point where I'm not laying into this minus one 261 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: point fifteen for Jade Daniels, where I do think there 262 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: might be a slight bit of value, and if for 263 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: some reason Jaydeen Daniels goes down, I think Williams would 264 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 2: move to like a minus five hundred favorite, assuming things 265 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: continue to play play out. But I do think Brian 266 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 2: Thomas Junior is worth a bit of a peak. I 267 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 2: do think he should be favored over maleak neighbors. At 268 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 2: this point, he leads all rookie wide receivers in receiving yards. 269 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: He's also the first player with five hundred receiving yards 270 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: on thirty or fewer receptions through seven career games since 271 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 2: Randy Moss in nineteen eighty eight. He is first in 272 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: yards after the catch among rookie wide receivers, first in 273 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: yards per route run, tied for first with touchdowns. He 274 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 2: is having a phenomenal season, and I think it's going 275 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 2: under the radar because of the sort of stink on 276 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: the Jaguars as a whole. And if I were to 277 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: want to bet on a guy catching passes from Trevor 278 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 2: Lawrence or Trevor catching passes from Daniel Jones, give me 279 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: the guy with Trevor Lawrence. So again, this is a 280 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 2: long shot. I think he's twenty five to one right 281 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: now in the across the market, so certainly not something 282 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: you expect to win. But again, if he continues to 283 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: have some historical outputs like this, continues to score, it's 284 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: going to be difficult. Because Puka Nakua had a historical 285 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: season last year and still did not win the awards, 286 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 2: so again, something to put a little lunch money on. 287 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 2: I think at this point, I think there's just a 288 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 2: little bit of a mispricing in the market with him 289 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: being behind neighbors. 290 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly makes no sense to me. All right, let's 291 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: go on to the stats that everybody needs to pay 292 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: attention to for this week, and let's talk with your 293 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: Packers here and not the Packers offense, which is usually 294 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: the more fun thing to talk about. So let's talk 295 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: about the defense and what the numbers bear out when 296 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: it comes to the pack And look, they've been really 297 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: good at greating turnovers. But is that enough, Sam. 298 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going to talk about a couple of defenses today. 299 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 2: This past week, the Packers had probably I think their 300 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: best defensive performance of the season, and that's mainly because 301 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 2: they did not force a turnover and they still held 302 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 2: the Texans to twenty two points. They set season high 303 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: marks in pressure rate at forty nine percent EPA per 304 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 2: dropback allowed, and allowed just fifty five net passing yards 305 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: to the Texans. Again, they're doing this. They did this 306 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: against a Texans offense that I think the public thinks 307 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: should be good. But they really haven't been all year. 308 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: On early downs this season, the Texans are twenty fourth 309 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 2: in pass rate, twenty fifth in EPA per play, and 310 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 2: thirtieth in success rate. But when they do throw the ball, 311 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 2: so they're running the ball a ton on early downs, 312 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: which is not great. When they do pass the ball, 313 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: there's still twenty fifth in EPA per play and twenty 314 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: six in success rate on early downs. So this Texans 315 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 2: offense is and should be massively downgraded from what we 316 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 2: thought they were entering the Seeds in The Packers are 317 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: now visiting a Jacksonville defense, excuse me, a Jacksonville team 318 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 2: that certainly has not been consistent on offense, but I 319 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 2: think could have some success against the Packers. I'm sort 320 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 2: of selling high on this Packers' defensive output against the Texans, 321 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: knowing that the offense that they were going up against 322 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: wasn't that great. So over the last four games, the 323 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: Jaguars offense has ranked fifth in EPA per play, sixth 324 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 2: in EPA per drive, their top eight in passing, EPA 325 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 2: per play and success rate. They're allowing the fourth lowest 326 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 2: pressure rate. Now, the health status of their left tackle 327 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: Cam Robinson is key there, but I think where I 328 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 2: want to attack this specifically is with the Jaguars team 329 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 2: total rather than the spread, because I don't think the 330 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 2: Jaguars defense can really plug many holes at this point, 331 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 2: so think that this could be a high scoring game 332 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: and like the Jaguars team total. We'll see where that's at. 333 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: Now, are you alluded to talking about defense as let's 334 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: talk more about the Seattle Seahawks defense. Certainly want to 335 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: look pretty good to open the season, but again, lesser 336 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: opponents can sometimes make a lesser defense look well a 337 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: little bit more. So far, that's not been the case 338 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: when the competition's been stepped up. First few weeks were good, 339 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 1: last few weeks not so good. Break down the tail 340 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 1: of the tape when it comes to the Seahawks defense 341 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: and what basically the splits look like. 342 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, so in weeks one through three they had they 343 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 2: were allowing negative point two point eight EPA per play, 344 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 2: that was second best in the league. From weeks four 345 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 2: to seven, they're allowing point one four EPA per play, 346 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: which is fourth worst. So the last four weeks, their 347 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 2: early down EPA per play and success right are the 348 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 2: worst in the league over that span. And again there 349 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 2: are a couple of reasons for this. First, like you 350 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 2: mentioned the strength of schedule. In the first three weeks, 351 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 2: they've played Denver, New England and the first game without 352 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 2: two four Miami. In the last four games, they've played Detroit, 353 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 2: the Giants, the forty nine Ers, and the Falcons, and 354 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 2: so the competition in terms of the offenses there facing 355 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 2: certainly a step up from what they did early. Another 356 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 2: part of it is just the injuries that they've had 357 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 2: over the last several weeks. Reek Wollen has missed the 358 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 2: last couple of games. Rare Shawn Jenkins is on IR 359 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,239 Speaker 2: and didn't play last week, Trey Brown didn't play, and 360 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: then in the front seven, boy A Mafy we missed 361 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: weeks four to five, whichnnon Uosa hasn't really played at all. 362 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 2: Byron Murphy and Jerome Baker missed a couple of games. 363 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 2: So again, with a lot of shifting pieces on top 364 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 2: of increased competition, it's a compounding effect here that we've 365 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 2: seen from the Seahawks. And again you look at their 366 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: season long numbers, they're like sixteenth in EP per play 367 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 2: a lot and that doesn't tell the whole story here. 368 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 2: So I do think that they are probably at full 369 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 2: strength closer to the twenty to twenty three range in 370 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: terms of defense, because I trust Mike McDonald quite a 371 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 2: bit with his scheming and pressures. So it's just something 372 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 2: to keep in mind again, why you want to look 373 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 2: at recent stuff for the NFL for sure. Again, we 374 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: already have a small sample size in the NFL, which 375 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 2: makes it difficult, But there are instances where it really 376 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,239 Speaker 2: makes sense to focus on those, and I think this 377 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 2: is one of those. 378 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: Certainly seems like it. Again, Timing is everything in the NFL, right, 379 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: so it seems like the Denver Broncos are catching teams 380 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: right at the right time more often than not. Lately, 381 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: They're not a very impressive offense. I think we can 382 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: all agree on that. With bo Nicks, defense has certainly 383 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: done its part, scoring touchdowns, do and everything you can 384 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: possibly imagine this past Thursday. But here we go, Denver 385 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: Broncos get another gift here with the Carolina Panthers. So 386 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: let's talk about this game, what it looks like and 387 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: can the Denver Bronco offense once again score enough points 388 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: here to get another W in Week eight? 389 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 2: I think they can. I mean, if they win, they're 390 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 2: going to be five and three and in a much 391 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 2: better position to make the playoffs, some like the Jets, 392 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: which is kind of crazy if you had told me 393 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 2: that eight weeks into the eight weeks ago, but. 394 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: I might have been able to tell you that. I'm 395 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: just saying it. 396 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, But anyway, the Panthers defense ranks dead last in 397 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 2: every major efficiency metric. They just allowed forty points to 398 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 2: a Commander's team that was led by Marcus Mariota for 399 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 2: most of the game. They're again not really even fielding 400 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,239 Speaker 2: a real defense at this point. Like it's that some 401 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 2: of their best players have gone down to injury and 402 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 2: it's just it's not good at all. And Denver with 403 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: bo Nix, is struggling to pass the ball. But I 404 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: don't think that matters because They're rushing offense has actually 405 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: been pretty strong lately. Over the last four games. They 406 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 2: rank sixth in rushing DPA for play, first in rushing 407 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 2: success rate, second in rushing explosive rush rate, and bow 408 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 2: Knicks is a part of that. I mean, he's very mobile, 409 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 2: obviously able to move the ball, you know, get out 410 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 2: of the pocket and scramble when it's needed, which is 411 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 2: probably more than he needs to. But again, at this point, 412 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 2: I don't know if I like either side in this game, 413 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: because laying seven and a half points with bow knicks 414 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 2: is not very fun to do and. 415 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't make you sleep well at night, ye sleeping great. 416 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: Expecting the Panthers to cover seven and a half is 417 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: not something I think is going to happen either. So 418 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: I actually bet the game total under forty three and 419 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: a half shortly before this, because I don't think Caroline 420 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 2: is going to be able to move the ball against 421 00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 2: this Broncos defense, which has been incredible so far. This here, 422 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 2: I think the Broncos team total over is probably the 423 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: play here if you're going to play anything outside of 424 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 2: that under, because this can very much be like a 425 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,959 Speaker 2: thirty to three game where the Broncos are able to 426 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 2: just move the ball easily but Panthers can't at all. 427 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 1: Before we get to the Survivor pool pick of the week, 428 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: I have a question for it. You're seeing some big 429 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: spreads here. Usually this is what happens. Right, we get 430 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: halfway through the season, we see the teams that are 431 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: the haves and the haves nots for a myriad of reasons. Right, 432 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's hell, Sometimes it's personnel. Sometimes it's a combination 433 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: of all those things. When you look at some of 434 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: the big spreads, and I mean big this week, you're 435 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: seeing double digits in a few spots. Is it a 436 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: sense of you're just taking them one at a time 437 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: or collectively? Are you there yet right now? Where? Yeah, 438 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: some of these teams are going to blow out some 439 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: of these lesser teams, especially the ones that are traveling. 440 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there are already a couple teams that 441 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 2: are dead at this point, just like throwing the white 442 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 2: flag on the season. Like the Raiders are not trying 443 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 2: to win games. The Titans, I don't think they're trying 444 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: to win. I think, you know, if you are going 445 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 2: to lay the points with some of these heavy favorites, 446 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 2: extending it out to the point where it is like 447 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 2: a massive blowout, like you know, taking the Lions minus 448 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 2: seventeen and a half or something like that, just making 449 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 2: the tail outcome even further and getting a reward a 450 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: little bit more for it, I think is the play 451 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 2: with those types of games. I do think, you know, 452 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 2: it's just with the tea with the game then too, 453 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 2: like the Browns and Ravens this week, like that greatly 454 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: depends on who's that quarterback for the Browns, because I 455 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 2: think the Browns I think they're going to go with 456 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 2: dtr if he is healthy. But Jamis Winston like from 457 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 2: a median outcome, probably is about the same as him, 458 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: but the tails are much much fatter for for Jamis 459 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 2: just so, especially again. 460 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: His history of the garbage time. You know, the one 461 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: thing with Winson is you'll make mistakes and then you 462 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,239 Speaker 1: know he'll throw ball sixty yards deep. The next thing 463 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: you know, that spread is dead. And you know that's 464 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: the thing about Winston that's always very dangerous and he's 465 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: got a history of doing that to us as better. 466 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 2: So I do think it is very much a case 467 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 2: by case situation understanding what some of these team strengths are. 468 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a team like the Lions, who when 469 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 2: they get ahead, they're going to run the ball and 470 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 2: they're going to have success doing so. So they're not 471 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 2: going to, you know, be having a couple of three 472 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 2: and three and outs late in the game that allow 473 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 2: the Titans to get a back door cover things like that. Again, 474 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 2: a team like the Ravens is going to be able 475 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 2: to salt the game away with Derek Henley Henry like 476 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 2: we saw last night. So understanding where these team strengths 477 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 2: are and again whether they're able to sort of shut 478 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 2: the door on any sort of backdoor cover, I think 479 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: is certain something to keep an eye on it and 480 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: consider when you are laying the points these heavy favorites. 481 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our Survivor Pool pick of 482 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: the week, Sam, you kind of touched on a little 483 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: bit when we were discussing some of these double digit 484 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: lines that we're seeing in the spreads. But you've got 485 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: one lined up that you feel pretty confident is going 486 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: to get over that mark in a pretty comfortable fashion. 487 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go with the Detroit Lions. Just they 488 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 2: are probably a top three team. The Titans are probably 489 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: a bottom three to five team. There's nothing going well 490 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 2: on offense for the Titans right now. The Titans defense 491 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 2: has played pretty decently. Obviously let up thirty four points 492 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: to the Bills this past week, but I think played 493 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 2: a little bit better than that score actually indicated. And 494 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 2: again you look at the way the Lions can win 495 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: on offense and having so many weapons. Obviously going to 496 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: be without Jamison Williams this week. He's suspended for two games. 497 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 2: But I don't think that really moves the needle that 498 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 2: much because he's has been like phased out. But he's 499 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 2: certainly not being used as as much as some people 500 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 2: may have hoped. So I think the Lions take care 501 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 2: business and win this game. 502 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: All right. There you have it, everybody survivable picks, the stats, 503 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: the futures, the line movements.
