Speaker 1: Check it on man, No down, Man, good day. I
Speaker 1: want to check the game right here at Vison as
Speaker 1: the man said, right here at Serious Sextep Channel two
Speaker 1: or four, Visa dot Com, Visa in game plus. Good
Speaker 1: morning to you. It's Gil Alexander. Jason Khan is here. Jason.
Speaker 1: How was your weekend? It was pretty good, girl. How
Speaker 1: about yours? I survived, It's all I care about. That's true. Literally,
Speaker 1: you did survive all I care about. In the end,
Speaker 1: it's I've said it before, I'll say it again. The
Speaker 1: brain just keeps coming back to Survivor three D ten entries.
Speaker 1: Pardon me, still alive in circuits Survivor. It was the
Speaker 1: most compelling game of the weekend. We'll get to it.
Speaker 1: I had Pittsburgh. We know how that went. But listen,
Speaker 1: if you're still alive and you haven't had a close
Speaker 1: call or two by this point, um, you are the outlier,
Speaker 1: not the person that is the close call or two.
Speaker 1: But we'll get into all that because we could talk
Speaker 1: about that for segments on end um. Because it's all
Speaker 1: it's all headed towards Thanksgiving. Everybody's just sort of hanging
Speaker 1: around untill the Thanksgiving implosion that will inevitably occur, and
Speaker 1: you've gotta be fine with that once Thanksgiving comes around
Speaker 1: in circa. But we're here to talk not only week
Speaker 1: ten in the National Football leagu Wow, week ten moving forward,
Speaker 1: but week nine yesterday. If you're just landing on this
Speaker 1: show for the first time. On Mondays, what we do
Speaker 1: is something called Guessing Lines, tribute to the old Stardust
Speaker 1: radio show of the same name with Roxy Roxborough. Uh
Speaker 1: and of course the star of the show, the person
Speaker 1: who runs so adeptly the South Point Hotel Casino sports book,
Speaker 1: My mish book, Chrissie Andrews. Good morning, Chris, Hello Gilly,
Speaker 1: how are you surve Who did you have? Uh? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm in with a couple of guys and I warned
Speaker 1: them at the beginning of the weekend. I think I
Speaker 1: even said it on you did you don't could blow it?
Speaker 1: I said, no, one could blow a game like there's
Speaker 1: supposed to win, like the Pittsburgh Steels. But we have
Speaker 1: weeks to have four entries a lot. We started to
Speaker 1: hear its five h I got we got Pittsburgh on one,
Speaker 1: Kansas City on another, and I got the Patriots somebody
Speaker 1: on two of them. So I don't know now is
Speaker 1: this circle or is this your own survivor pool? Is
Speaker 1: you have four left? Look at you? I I was.
Speaker 1: I heard your voice in my head the whole time
Speaker 1: that game was going on yesterday, because you did You
Speaker 1: did say it on guessing lines. You're like, well, no
Speaker 1: one can blow a game like this. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: how first of yeah, before anything else, how are you
Speaker 1: feeling now? A week of For those who missed it
Speaker 1: two weeks ago? Chris, he couldn't be here because he
Speaker 1: tested positive for COVID, was experiencing the ramifications of that
Speaker 1: last week, you felt good enough to come back on?
Speaker 1: Are you further a long in your recovery? Oh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I you know, I have tested negative. However, I'm still
Speaker 1: under quarantine because now my wife tested positive, so I
Speaker 1: have to wait for her. And you know, she's asymptomatic,
Speaker 1: so you would never know she had it. But it
Speaker 1: was just part of the procedure, you know, with me,
Speaker 1: and I was pretty sure when I got tested that
Speaker 1: I was through with it at that point. That she
Speaker 1: had to get tested, Like I said, it's just the procedure,
Speaker 1: and she came up positive. We were shocked at both
Speaker 1: of us, but you know, if she gets the test again,
Speaker 1: I think Thursday or Friday, and you know, pretty sure
Speaker 1: she'll be negative. But you know, you never know. This
Speaker 1: disease is just crazy. You know. I talked about my
Speaker 1: one friend and not like some guy I heard of,
Speaker 1: like my cousin's brother as a guy who works with
Speaker 1: his sister. No, it was a good friend of mine
Speaker 1: got it and died the same day. And that and
Speaker 1: then other guys just sail right through. It's just unbelievable.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, like I said, five years
Speaker 1: from now that I'm sure they'll know a lot more
Speaker 1: about it than they do now. Yeah, we we just
Speaker 1: we And by the way, just coming over because we
Speaker 1: have multiple screens in here in studio nine Dodgers, not
Speaker 1: nine Los Angeles Dodgers. Now they say test positive for
Speaker 1: the coronavirus. So that's from this weekend, you know, more
Speaker 1: than a week after the actual final of the World Series.
Speaker 1: So the conclusion of the World Series. So yeah, we
Speaker 1: don't we know far less than we do know, is
Speaker 1: the headline to it all, for sure. But I'm glad
Speaker 1: your wife is feeling well, and uh, hopefully she'll get
Speaker 1: that she'll get through it without incident. How did how
Speaker 1: did you do as a book this past weekend? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we did good. It was a good week for us,
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday both. Saturday was a little shaky and
Speaker 1: I got the results from Saturday night. How did we
Speaker 1: win this much? Because it didn't seem like we were
Speaker 1: doing some good during the day, but you know, just
Speaker 1: a grind to kind of work that in our favorite
Speaker 1: we didn't knock them dead. We didn't not knock them
Speaker 1: dead at all. Uh. And then yesterday it was kind
Speaker 1: of the same thing. Momma pretty good. Um. But once again,
Speaker 1: as I was watching the scorers roll in, I wasn't
Speaker 1: sure how good we were doing. But uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we picked up a little bit at the end, so
Speaker 1: it was it was a very good day, all right,
Speaker 1: Skill Alexander, It's Chris Andrews. This is guessing lines on
Speaker 1: a numbers game at Vista in the sports betting that
Speaker 1: works Serious x M channel two oh four. Visa had
Speaker 1: not come. The Visa have food, boastling and game plus.
Speaker 1: Let's get it going. Um, of course we'll talk about
Speaker 1: this past week. We'll talk about again the premise of
Speaker 1: this show. I'm in a cocoon for me yesterday, and
Speaker 1: that is the truth. I don't know what the lines are.
Speaker 1: I I guess what the line I believe will be.
Speaker 1: Chrissy will tell me what he posts after the show.
Speaker 1: And within that exercise, we look to extract value. Thursday night, Sarah,
Speaker 1: what do we got the Colts at the Titans? Good game?
Speaker 1: Cults of the Titans um division game? Yeah? On paper
Speaker 1: I say that because after what happened last night between
Speaker 1: the Saints of the Bucks. So on paper we'll get
Speaker 1: to that. Uh, looks to be a good game. So
Speaker 1: this is for the a f C South lead. This
Speaker 1: is now, if I remember scheduling, this is the first
Speaker 1: of two games between these two teams in a three
Speaker 1: week span. So, um, this is big because right now
Speaker 1: Tennessee is six and two Indianapolis five and three. Tennessee
Speaker 1: six and two by virtue of their win over the
Speaker 1: Bears yesterday to seventeen in a game that was not
Speaker 1: nearly as close as that score suggests. They do cover
Speaker 1: in the end um Tannehill ten of twenty one for
Speaker 1: one fifty eight two touchdowns. No Pixie was sacked three times,
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. I mean the Bears did their thing on
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry just twenty one carries for sixty eight yards.
Speaker 1: A J. Brown was Tannehills number one target four for
Speaker 1: one on one in a touchdown. But the Titans beat
Speaker 1: the Bears yesterday with only two hundred and twenty eight
Speaker 1: total yards of offense. They ran fifty five place to
Speaker 1: Chicago seventy five, but they held Chicago to two of
Speaker 1: fifteen on third down. Chicago was three or four on
Speaker 1: fourth down. I should I should note, but two of
Speaker 1: fifteen on third down. Uh, the key, you know, there's
Speaker 1: so much of this yesterday. The turnover number. Uh, if
Speaker 1: there's ever a stat that we can look backwards on it,
Speaker 1: we were just given a stat and the one stat
Speaker 1: that we could immediately assume wins or losses with typically
Speaker 1: is the turnover column. And they were plus two in turnovers,
Speaker 1: one of which for Tennessee was a scoop of a
Speaker 1: David Montgomery fumble for a touchdown by Desmond King sixty
Speaker 1: three yards. That made it sixteen to nothing with one
Speaker 1: with excuse me, with four thirty five left in the
Speaker 1: third quarter. That was the big play of the game.
Speaker 1: So Tennessee gets it done there after, Folks weren't feeling
Speaker 1: too good about him last week. Indianapolis loses to Baltimore. Um,
Speaker 1: this is the game I liked the most coming into
Speaker 1: the weekend, along with Washington, which we'll get to. Baltimore wins. Uh,
Speaker 1: they beat Indianapolis twenty four to ten. Chrissie, but Indianapolis
Speaker 1: gets They get one total yard of offense from halftime
Speaker 1: till just over the eleven minute mark in the fourth quarter. Uh,
Speaker 1: there was a and and and within that. And this
Speaker 1: has been a numbers game staple here for years now.
Speaker 1: There was a key fourth and one for the Colts.
Speaker 1: You know where I'm going with this. They were down
Speaker 1: twenty one to ten with five thirty four left in
Speaker 1: the game at the Baltimore sixteen yard line, and they
Speaker 1: decided they're going for it. Now again, you're down eleven
Speaker 1: with five thirty four left, it's fourth and one. But
Speaker 1: who's your quarterback? It's Philip Rivers. And what do we
Speaker 1: say here all the time? Whoever has Philip Rivers in
Speaker 1: a sneak situation? Is that a competitive disadvantage because he
Speaker 1: does not sneake. It's like it's a Pruder film to
Speaker 1: find a Philip Rivers sneak in his career, So what
Speaker 1: happens an incomplete past that absolutely had no chance of
Speaker 1: ever being completed, and instead of kicking a field goal,
Speaker 1: instead of you know, having the sneak option on fourth
Speaker 1: and one, zero points that was their biggest threat in
Speaker 1: the second half. Rivers finishes twenty five or forty three
Speaker 1: for two, twenty seven, no touchdowns, one pick. He was sacked. Uh,
Speaker 1: he was not sacked. But they were two of twelve
Speaker 1: themselves on third down. Where the Colts in this game
Speaker 1: two of four on fourth down. Um, I know we
Speaker 1: don't do a lot of these lazy threes anymore, but
Speaker 1: shouldn't this be Tennessee minus three? Well, one guy wanted
Speaker 1: to make a T shirt, and uh, I think this
Speaker 1: would be the first one to qualify. I like your
Speaker 1: number better. Someone didn't want to put that in the
Speaker 1: vicent store. Yeah, well, you know, I came up with
Speaker 1: one that they still quite a few elm from what
Speaker 1: I hear, that's never under until it's over. So, gilly,
Speaker 1: I see this one A little bit of two some
Speaker 1: two and a half, mostly two and a half. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna open a two and a half. And by the way,
Speaker 1: for guys, just tuning in having hurt. I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't give anything for home team, home field advantage. My
Speaker 1: power Raidings come to Tennessee one and a half. But
Speaker 1: as I look at it, and I always say the
Speaker 1: power Raidings just a place to start, I really think
Speaker 1: this needs to be at least two and a half.
Speaker 1: Probably at three is even better. I'm gonna open two
Speaker 1: and a half just because they do see some sues
Speaker 1: out there. But you know, Gil in a in a cocoon,
Speaker 1: when I do kind of like your number better, I
Speaker 1: just think, Uh, Tanys have been a little up and
Speaker 1: down this year, no question about it, and I expected
Speaker 1: a little better things than early in the year. It
Speaker 1: looked like we were gonna get them. It's been a
Speaker 1: little inconsistent some somewhere along the line. I'm wonder if
Speaker 1: they maybe figured out Dana a little bit. They might have,
Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't like rivers um. I really
Speaker 1: like this Colt's roster, the fifty three man roster, but
Speaker 1: the more I look at it, I'm not sure they
Speaker 1: have any real game breakers. And t Y Hilton, by
Speaker 1: the way, without us day too, but T, I don't
Speaker 1: see any real offensive game breakers for this team, and
Speaker 1: I think that might hurt them because I think Philip Rivers.
Speaker 1: I've never been a big Rivers guy, but I think
Speaker 1: he I think he needs a lot of help and
Speaker 1: and I don't see anything that's really given it to
Speaker 1: him offensively. So I'm gonna open to an half. Is
Speaker 1: t y h t hy? Hilton really hasn't done much
Speaker 1: this year two and a half? You said this year
Speaker 1: that existent this year before before he even got hurt.
Speaker 1: He was one of my fantasy players and he was
Speaker 1: the biggest bust. It's amazing going from from solid threat
Speaker 1: to nothing with the change to Philiper literally nothing. All right,
Speaker 1: two and a half you said, Christie, Yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: open two and a half. Okay, I should probably I
Speaker 1: probably should have waited to the Baltimore game to to
Speaker 1: bring this up. But then think of the last thing
Speaker 1: about this, the Colts playing the Ravens. I wonder if
Speaker 1: that's just more you know, it's what we tend to
Speaker 1: read in with recency into what we've just seen. But
Speaker 1: we've said it before with the Ravens, and when you
Speaker 1: play the Ravens now, there's been great teams in NFL
Speaker 1: history that you can say this about I get it,
Speaker 1: But do you ever remember, I'll sort of drive this
Speaker 1: home again about the Avens. Do you ever remember a
Speaker 1: team that's not necessarily you know, one of the all
Speaker 1: time great teams that is so different when they're behind
Speaker 1: and when they're ahead, when they're ahead, and when they
Speaker 1: figure out a way to matriculate the ball down the field,
Speaker 1: and and you can't get them off the field, they're
Speaker 1: they're impossible to beat, it seems like. And this was
Speaker 1: one of those situations where it was just like the
Speaker 1: Ravens were going to They had their their foot on
Speaker 1: the Colt's neck in the second half, and they're like,
Speaker 1: you can't stop us. We're gonna hold the ball forever,
Speaker 1: and this is gonna be the most frustrating thing you've
Speaker 1: ever experienced in your life. They're so interesting that it's
Speaker 1: like the Uh, it's like a chess player who has
Speaker 1: you on your heels from the very beginning of your
Speaker 1: chess match and there's nothing you can do about it
Speaker 1: the whole match through, like you can never get back
Speaker 1: in a positive situation. That's how it felt. Uh, if
Speaker 1: you were the cult yesterday. So two and a half
Speaker 1: is what it is. Three is what I guess that's
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game, which again looks great on paper.
Speaker 1: Let's do a Sunday morning game. First game out of
Speaker 1: the blocks, the Bengals and at the Steelers. Do we
Speaker 1: have another one of these eight games early? Three late
Speaker 1: situations here, Jason? No, Actually, there's a there's a lot
Speaker 1: of late games just coming in. No, no, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because of the Masters, right, so they tilted
Speaker 1: it later. Oh that's good. There's just five early games,
Speaker 1: five early, five early games and six late in two
Speaker 1: three four, five, six late games and then yeah the
Speaker 1: prime time. Wow. Okay, so because of darkness they're going
Speaker 1: to play that. The Masters might be over by about
Speaker 1: twelve noon Pacific, three pm Eastern. So that makes sense.
Speaker 1: So more games in the afternoon is what you're saying.
Speaker 1: Literally more awesome. Alright? Uh you said it was the
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh game, Chrissy, Bengals at the Steelers, Bengals at Pittsburgh. Okay,
Speaker 1: Bengals coming off of by Bengals to five and one,
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh eight and oh eight, notes the first eight no
Speaker 1: starting franchise history. They get by the Cowboys, and I
Speaker 1: do mean get by nine, don't those of us who
Speaker 1: had them and survive or no, um wow. So big
Speaker 1: Ben forty two for three oh six, three touchdowns, no picks.
Speaker 1: He wasn't sacked, but he did get hurt and had
Speaker 1: to leave early in the first half. Did come back
Speaker 1: to play in the second halves only missed uh you know,
Speaker 1: a minute and a half or so in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1: Big Ben eleven of sixteen for one forty four and
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Pittsburgh was plus two in turnovers. Those ended
Speaker 1: up being huge. They only ended up with forty six
Speaker 1: rushing yards a week after getting just forty eight against Baltimore.
Speaker 1: But Pittsburgh had two missed extra points from Chris Boswell,
Speaker 1: who did hit a I believe it was a fifty
Speaker 1: nine yard or after a false start saved him from
Speaker 1: another miss at the end of the first half. But
Speaker 1: they Pittsburgh got twenty four points the opposite of the
Speaker 1: old fashioned way. It wasn't three touchdowns, three extra points
Speaker 1: at the field goal. It was two touchdowns of missed
Speaker 1: extra points, another touchdown with a miss two point conversion,
Speaker 1: and then a field goal. That's how they got to
Speaker 1: twenty four uh and at the end of the game,
Speaker 1: fourth and one at the Dallas fifteen with forty three
Speaker 1: seconds left. This is after Pittsburgh had taken the lead.
Speaker 1: All they needed is a yard James Conner four yard loss.
Speaker 1: They also had a fourth and one earlier. We're Big Ben.
Speaker 1: This is before his injury did not sneak So again
Speaker 1: getting back to the Philip Rivers thing, the Big Ben
Speaker 1: thing is your nickname is literally Big Ben. Can't you
Speaker 1: just fall over and get a yard? It's in your nickname.
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about Riverboat Ron wanting to gamble
Speaker 1: because his nicknames riverboad. Your name is Big Ben. Just
Speaker 1: fall over and this and this, Christie, you know this
Speaker 1: better than anybody. This is for Mike Tomlin, a guy
Speaker 1: who used to randomly go for two when they would
Speaker 1: go up six to nothing. So it's the the inconsistency
Speaker 1: of this stuff drives me crazy. It's like, oh, now
Speaker 1: we're never doing that again. Now we're just going to
Speaker 1: hand off and pray. So Dallas ends up with the
Speaker 1: ball with thirty eight seconds left at their own nineteen
Speaker 1: seven plays later, the great Garrett Gilbert has them third
Speaker 1: and four at the Pittsburgh twenty three four seconds left
Speaker 1: in the game. Gilbert to Lamb broken up by Fitzpatrick
Speaker 1: and Pittsburgh escapes. Oh god, I'm exhausted again. That game
Speaker 1: took so much out of me. Chris. Anyway, what's this game?
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and Pittsburgh? Is that? But she's forgot Pittsburgh. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I respect Cincinnati and I think the market
Speaker 1: probably does to um. They play a lot of close games,
Speaker 1: I'll say it, but the line will probably be Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: minus seven and a half and you're a little light.
Speaker 1: It's it's almost all nine. I do see one seven,
Speaker 1: I see one eight, but mostly nine. It opened a
Speaker 1: little higher like nine and a half, but it's come down.
Speaker 1: And you know, the Bengals and I talked about them
Speaker 1: earlier in the year, I thought that if the coach
Speaker 1: doesn't blow it, because I don't like him at all,
Speaker 1: but a lot of their roster I kind of like,
Speaker 1: and it seems like some of the guys did bail.
Speaker 1: But you know, Burrow, I think is really good. And
Speaker 1: this is gonna be the kind of team that's gonna
Speaker 1: cover a lot of numbers. They're gonna win a lot
Speaker 1: of games. No, They're gonna cover some big numbers, and
Speaker 1: I think this is one of them, right here where
Speaker 1: they're really primed. Once again. My power ratings come to
Speaker 1: nine and a half. But I like the lower number.
Speaker 1: I think nine is good. I wouldn't want to go
Speaker 1: as low as you did, but I wouldn't I don't
Speaker 1: see a ten coming in this game. Personally, I think
Speaker 1: nine is pretty good place to start. Cincinnati's six and
Speaker 1: two against the spread so far this year, so Joe
Speaker 1: has been covering a lot of numbers. Joe Burrow. Let's
Speaker 1: imagine these teams like that that you bring up, Joe Burr.
Speaker 1: Imagine these teams like I don't have to imagine it
Speaker 1: because I grew up at Washington Football team fan. But
Speaker 1: if you had Dwayne Haskins, or if you're the Giants
Speaker 1: and you have Daniel Jones, and you look around the league, right,
Speaker 1: and all of these great young quarterbacks Joe Burrow and
Speaker 1: Josh exciting Joe falling on their face. Yeah, let me mean,
Speaker 1: let me just list him. Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Twa,
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, Um, Justin Herbert. There's five off the top
Speaker 1: of my head, right, I'm sure I'm forgetting Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1: These are all guys have been drafted in the last
Speaker 1: three drafts. Uh, those are six right there, So you're
Speaker 1: one short of a quarter of the league. I didn't
Speaker 1: mention Baker Mayfield because I think he's probably a tear
Speaker 1: below those guys. But that would be a quarter of
Speaker 1: the league. And you've got Dwayne Haskins and Daniel Jones
Speaker 1: or Sam Donald or Mitchell. I mean, well, but think
Speaker 1: about that. That's the difference, right, Like, that's the difference
Speaker 1: between hope and despondency. Anyway, Jake Lewton yesterday one game, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: get me started. But Christie, I did. I was hearing
Speaker 1: your voice in my head that entire Pittsburgh game because
Speaker 1: you did selling lines. You're like, this would be the game.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, for god's sakes, don't be right about this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: people texting me call me about different things that said,
Speaker 1: would you guys just leave me alone? I just Steelers,
Speaker 1: but win this game. Please let me alone. That's right.
Speaker 1: I don't care if they cover. Just win, all right.
Speaker 1: Let's stick up. Let's stick in one here in two
Speaker 1: minutes here before the break. You're Washington football team the
Speaker 1: Detroit Lion. There's not many lines on this. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you right now. I'm imagining because of Stafford, but you know,
Speaker 1: or you know it could be because of we don't
Speaker 1: know what Washington. Well, that's really a story. So we
Speaker 1: do have a couple of numbers. Yeah, we'll do it
Speaker 1: real quick. Detroit gets blasted by Minnesota thirty four to twenty.
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford does end up playing, but he does end
Speaker 1: up leaving the game. Minnesota was super dominant. Washington had
Speaker 1: a chance to beat the Giants. But Alex Smith in
Speaker 1: replacement of Kyle Allen just my opinion is he shouldn't
Speaker 1: be out on the football field. And I'm just talking
Speaker 1: about his leg, but certainly some of the decisions of
Speaker 1: some of the throws he made late in this game
Speaker 1: also lend to yeah, maybe just maybe just enjoy your
Speaker 1: millions and your family and not risk injury anymore. I
Speaker 1: think they have to go to Dwayne Haskins here. I
Speaker 1: really do, like, I don't know what the point of
Speaker 1: playing Alex By the way, and terrible injury for Kyle Allen.
Speaker 1: The Washington football team. Between Joe Thisman, Alex Smith, and
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen, I don't know what they've done to the universe,
Speaker 1: but those are three horrific quarterback injuries for that one franchise.
Speaker 1: But I think you have to go to dayne Haskin's.
Speaker 1: Usually there's no line whatsoever. Here. Now I see a
Speaker 1: couple of numbers. I see, Um, there's two numbers out there,
Speaker 1: but I'd like to hear yours first. I would say
Speaker 1: Detroit minus six. If it's Haskins, well, you're you're a
Speaker 1: little high. I see it's three and a half before
Speaker 1: my power ring has come a lot lower. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: they just something wrong with this Lions team. You know
Speaker 1: we're talking about quarterbacks. How about Stafford got stuck on
Speaker 1: Detroit all these years. I'm an opening right now. I
Speaker 1: want to see at I want to see a little
Speaker 1: bit more. So I'm not gonna open it just yet.
Speaker 1: Washington minus five and turnovers yesterday and they lose by
Speaker 1: three to the Giants. Good lord, the NFCS. That was
Speaker 1: the game I like the most with Baltimore. Then your
Speaker 1: quarterback gets hurt, then you go minus five and turnovers.
Speaker 1: Welcome to betting the NFL. Wellcome back. Guessing lines continues
Speaker 1: with Chris Andrews right here in the numbers game at
Speaker 1: Visa the Sports Betting Network. Kiel Alexander Christie Andrews right
Speaker 1: here at the South Point Hotel Casino. Last thing about
Speaker 1: Washington and Detroit, Chrissie, since there's no universal line here,
Speaker 1: but the the Washington football team minus five in turnovers
Speaker 1: five turnovers to the Giants, nothing lose by a field goal.
Speaker 1: Alex Smith ends up with a fine box score line
Speaker 1: of forty two, one touchdown, three picks, sacked twice. But
Speaker 1: those three picks, I mean those last two were brutal.
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen before a gruesome leg injury, which was Dak
Speaker 1: Prescott esque five of seven from six, five of seven
Speaker 1: for sixty two UH. Terry McLaurin is always filling up
Speaker 1: the box score for the UH. For the football team
Speaker 1: or seven for one fifteen and a touchdown Cam Sims
Speaker 1: three for one ten. But Washington was out t op out.
Speaker 1: Time of possession thirty seven to thirty three. Lions in
Speaker 1: defeat Stafford was twenty three thirty two for two eleven,
Speaker 1: one touchdown, two picks. He was sacked twice. Chase Daniel
Speaker 1: came in relief eight of thirteen, one touchdown, one pick.
Speaker 1: The Lions minus three in turnovers in that game against Minnesota,
Speaker 1: so brutal um, so I said six, and you said,
Speaker 1: what you're seeing is went on that game Washington Detroit.
Speaker 1: I see one three and a half, but that that
Speaker 1: might be just an old line pill before I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's updated. And by the way, before we
Speaker 1: move one, my wife reminded me, there's one other injury.
Speaker 1: You forgot to mention Skins about r G three. What
Speaker 1: do you mean you're talking about bad leg injuries? Thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, Yeah, thank you, Pam, because Pam came up
Speaker 1: with that was the you know, that was a sprain
Speaker 1: me against the Ravens his rookie year, late in his
Speaker 1: rookie year, which then in the game in the playoff
Speaker 1: game against the Seahawks. I was there and the place
Speaker 1: was a morgue when he got hurt. Like remember the
Speaker 1: Remember the Skins were fourteen to nothing in that game
Speaker 1: against Seattle and then the leg injury. I don't remember
Speaker 1: that well, yeah, but I just remember him getting hurt.
Speaker 1: You know, it was went from like a minor injury
Speaker 1: to I'm not quite a career ender, but certainly is
Speaker 1: shot at superstar that he was. He was never the same,
Speaker 1: never the same. People tend to forget. Yeah, thank you,
Speaker 1: for that. Thank you, Pam. There you go, I'd forgotten
Speaker 1: about that. Alright, Let's go on another game on Sunday morning.
Speaker 1: Only five early games. Love this Yeah. Houston Texans at
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Blount. Houston beats the Jaguars thanks to a
Speaker 1: h failed two point conversion on the Jaguars part. They
Speaker 1: win at twenty excuse it was twenty six and the
Speaker 1: end was at the final score um Houston Deshaun Watson
Speaker 1: nineteen of thirty two for two eighty one, two touchdowns
Speaker 1: note picks. He was sacked twice. He was ten for
Speaker 1: fifty on the ground fifty yards rushing. Will Fuller the
Speaker 1: fifth five catches for a hundred yards and a touchdown.
Speaker 1: DeShawn said this place would have been hell. Would have
Speaker 1: been hell had we uh cut will Fuller or had
Speaker 1: we traded rather Willful or not cut. But there was
Speaker 1: rumors of a trade to the packers. He said, it
Speaker 1: would have been hell. Brandon Cooks three for eight, three
Speaker 1: to touchdown by the way, twenty seven to twenty five.
Speaker 1: Jacksonville fails to get the two point conversion to tie
Speaker 1: it in force overtime. Jake Luton did very well against Houston.
Speaker 1: Cleveland coming off of bye, I will say Cleveland minus
Speaker 1: four and a half. Uh, you know during the break
Speaker 1: there are good friends a bear. Chris Felika put out
Speaker 1: a tweet we should rename the show. I like your
Speaker 1: number better, your case number two. I like your number better.
Speaker 1: My number came to exactly Cleveland four and a half.
Speaker 1: I'm seeing excuse me, I'm seeing two and a half
Speaker 1: and three on the Browns. Uh. Yeah, I definitely like
Speaker 1: your number better. I'm gonna have to open three. I can't,
Speaker 1: you know, three and a half. I'd be you know,
Speaker 1: suicidal doing that. But uh, a little bit of tun
Speaker 1: alf with juice on the on the favorite, but mostly
Speaker 1: three and I'm gonna open three. But uh, once again,
Speaker 1: I like your number better. Mine came to exactly four
Speaker 1: and a half. My follow ratings, I think Houston still
Speaker 1: just not there and Cleveland is pretty good. And I
Speaker 1: know we didn't put Maypold with the others that he's
Speaker 1: coming around, and they have a very good roster. That's
Speaker 1: the team that they did roster in a good coach. Coach,
Speaker 1: I understand you're putting in three, but there are two
Speaker 1: and a halves out there on this How is that?
Speaker 1: How is that making one? Yeah, I see one, two
Speaker 1: and a half I think, I think, yeah, I think
Speaker 1: even three is low. Wow that I'm surprised by that number.
Speaker 1: That might be a pick right now. I might make
Speaker 1: that bet right now, coming back guessing lines like one already.
Speaker 1: Right here, you're looking at a week ten right here
Speaker 1: on a numbers game in visa the sports betting that
Speaker 1: where by the way, tonight's game between the Patriots and
Speaker 1: the Jets. What are you sing right now and see ten? Consensus?
Speaker 1: Is that right? I'm seeing tens in a lot of spots.
Speaker 1: You might see some nines out there, but ten, Yeah, Wow,
Speaker 1: that game is gonna move up. It's gonna be Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: They're not Sam Donald. Ten's not enough. Tends tends not enough.
Speaker 1: You don't think, No, why does this game worry me tonight?
Speaker 1: It would have worried me more if it was Donald.
Speaker 1: But it still worries me a little bit. If you're
Speaker 1: a Patriots. There are seventy nine people out of the
Speaker 1: remaining three ten and circus survivor that do have the
Speaker 1: Patriots tonight, so they'll have to uh, yeah, we'll have
Speaker 1: you got two of them. I don't I don't think
Speaker 1: the Patriots are going to go down to the Jets.
Speaker 1: They may go down in the next week or two,
Speaker 1: but I don't think this is the game where they fold.
Speaker 1: Well that's the duke. Quit put me eyes on me, Jason.
Speaker 1: I don't think I have any problem, Chris, none at all.
Speaker 1: Every one of them is a problem. That's the thing
Speaker 1: I said about the Chiefs. Everyone's like, oh, just about
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. They're not going fifteen and one either, you know,
Speaker 1: like somebody's We'll get to their game. They probably could
Speaker 1: have lost yesterday easily. What's the next one on Sunday morning? This?
Speaker 1: How many have we done Sunday? Yeah? We did three more? Okay, um, okay,
Speaker 1: we're Jacksonville at Green Bay. So we just talked about
Speaker 1: Jake Lewton from Oregon State six round pick handed up
Speaker 1: being twenty six of thirty eight for three oh four
Speaker 1: in his debut, one touchdown, one pick. He was sacked twice,
Speaker 1: comported himself very well in a twenty seven to twenty
Speaker 1: five loss to the Texans James Robinson touchdown Chark seven
Speaker 1: for one six and a touchdown. Jacksonville had four hundred
Speaker 1: and twelve total yards of offense. Um, if you had
Speaker 1: Jacksonville going into that game, you would have signed up
Speaker 1: for that every time. But they're at Green Bay. You said,
Speaker 1: Is that what you said at Green Bay? Yeah? Okay,
Speaker 1: al right, Well the only question here is is it
Speaker 1: fourteen or is it thirteen? I'll say it's fourteen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's fourteen. I see a little bit of thirteen
Speaker 1: and a half. H my power ratings come to fifteen
Speaker 1: and again another term guys love hearing, they say, diminishing returns.
Speaker 1: It's hard to make the team that high. I think
Speaker 1: fourteen is a good place to start, and that's where
Speaker 1: I'm that's I'm gonna put it and start with that
Speaker 1: Green Bay with extra rest, having played on Thursday night
Speaker 1: and having just a just a coaster against the Niners.
Speaker 1: I don't know why Aaron Rodgers was in that game
Speaker 1: for as long as he was and Aaron Jones, Aaron
Speaker 1: Jones who was like doubtful to play. They're like running
Speaker 1: him late in that game made no sense. Um, Can
Speaker 1: I just talk about Survivor one more time? People are
Speaker 1: gonna be like, Jeezy really is obsessed with Survivor Green Bay.
Speaker 1: If you look at the circum matrix, green Bay is available.
Speaker 1: I said, there's three entries left headed into heading into
Speaker 1: Tonight in circa. Green Bay is available to like a
Speaker 1: two hundred and eighty nine of those entries. So this
Speaker 1: is the quintessential game theory game. Assuming there's not gonna
Speaker 1: be a bigger spread on the board, either everyone's going
Speaker 1: to play green Bay and you know, just either get
Speaker 1: their free Bingo square or go down with the ship.
Speaker 1: The game theory way to play this would be to
Speaker 1: not play green Bay because you figure this is my
Speaker 1: chance to win a million bucks or gets super close
Speaker 1: to it. If green Bay happens to lose this, everybody
Speaker 1: and their mother is going to be on Green Bay.
Speaker 1: The question is do you want to play the game
Speaker 1: theory way? You know, because I said from the beginning,
Speaker 1: this game should not be called survivor should be called winner. Right,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a poorly named game. You're trying to
Speaker 1: win it, You're actually not trying to survive. But in
Speaker 1: the moment, will people do that or will they just
Speaker 1: take Green Bay and say, yeah, that's great, I'll just
Speaker 1: survive to the next week. I may very well be
Speaker 1: in that ladder camp, but I'm just telling you how
Speaker 1: how you're supposed to play this is to not play
Speaker 1: Green Bay. But I would bet you this is going
Speaker 1: to be the most imbalanced week ever with the amount
Speaker 1: of people who have Green Bay available to them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll have to see who the Cowboys play. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, h next, you're being quite verbal this week too,
Speaker 1: if you're Cesaris. Oh what did I say? Cowboys? Come on?
Speaker 1: You said it should be uh, you know, winner not surviving,
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Cowboys and the Jets both have
Speaker 1: buys this week. This weekend's the best fade. Teams are
Speaker 1: not going to there you go, okay, last one in
Speaker 1: the morning, Okay, okay, yeah, we got one more after it.
Speaker 1: Eagles at the Giant all right, I don't have to
Speaker 1: say much about this. Eagles coming off a by Giants,
Speaker 1: as we mentioned, beat Washington by a field goal because
Speaker 1: they were plus five in turnovers. Um. Daniel Jones was
Speaker 1: twenty three of thirty four for two twelve one touchdown
Speaker 1: note picks. He was sacked five times. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Philadelphia minus oh okay, Chris, yeah, I thought I turned
Speaker 1: my sound. Evidently not scared me a little bit. I'll
Speaker 1: say Philly minus three Yeah, it's mostly three and three
Speaker 1: with some juice on the favorite. Uh no, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. That was early this morning. It's not three
Speaker 1: and a half. And I even see it as high
Speaker 1: as four. Uh well, I think it's a little high myself.
Speaker 1: I think four would have to be a take for me. Um.
Speaker 1: I thought like three was an okay number. I thought
Speaker 1: that was the open up, but I got said open
Speaker 1: three twenty this morning when I first started looking at
Speaker 1: these numbers. But it's client to as high as four.
Speaker 1: So evidently early money on the Eagles in this spot.
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. I still have a lot of
Speaker 1: questions about the Eagles. There's twenty for the Giants too,
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure you should be going at three
Speaker 1: and half and four in the road with the Eagles.
Speaker 1: I I kind of like the Giants in this front.
Speaker 1: Giants shouldn't beat them last time. Giants are surprising six
Speaker 1: and three against the spread, six and three against the
Speaker 1: are I'm gonna open three and a half and they'll
Speaker 1: probably bet me up. But uh, you know, I thought
Speaker 1: three was a good opening number. Yeah, Giants and not
Speaker 1: bad getting points and the course too many at home. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Eagles with a chance to get to five hundred. Eagles
Speaker 1: lead to the NFC East at three four and one,
Speaker 1: are seeing a one and a half game lead on Washington.
Speaker 1: It's two and six, and Dallas and the Giants are
Speaker 1: both two and seven. So the Eagles have an opportunity
Speaker 1: here to stretch their lead or at least have a
Speaker 1: shot as to win here. But I said, why would
Speaker 1: you want to win this division? I mean, really, if
Speaker 1: you step back, if you win the NFC East, the
Speaker 1: highest you can draft is all the other three teams
Speaker 1: are gonna be top ten picks. That's a monstrous gap.
Speaker 1: Um in terms of winning this division and getting a
Speaker 1: home playoff game, We're more than likely you're gonna get housed.
Speaker 1: Let's face it, you're not winning the super Bowl. You're
Speaker 1: not getting to the super Bowl. You really want to
Speaker 1: win this division just so you can have that crown
Speaker 1: and and and have a much worse draft pick. I
Speaker 1: don't know. Eagles don't care. They draft weirdly. Anyway. I
Speaker 1: will take Jalen Raaker here. I will take Jalen Hurts here. Anyway,
Speaker 1: We'll come back. Guessing lines continues Week ten in the
Speaker 1: National Football League right here on a numbers with Visa
Speaker 1: the Sports Betting Network. Tampa at Carolina, Tampa at Carolina,
Speaker 1: My goodness, what what was that yesterday for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay loses to New Orleans. Alright, no surprise in
Speaker 1: that as as three point closing favorites, but they lose
Speaker 1: thirty eight to three, and the field goal was just
Speaker 1: that thirty one and nothing was like, we don't want
Speaker 1: to we don't want to get shut out, so we'll
Speaker 1: kick a field goal, which is always a questionable move,
Speaker 1: by the way, but New Orleans just stomps them, stops them.
Speaker 1: And you know, we were doing on on Primetime Action
Speaker 1: the other night on MSG plus with my buddy Matt
Speaker 1: Brown and Kelly Bidlin and Daniel Lavary. We were doing
Speaker 1: like our mid season top fives, and I put New
Speaker 1: Orleans at five because I was like, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: do my list of what they were to this point,
Speaker 1: but what I think they'll be before the season. I
Speaker 1: had Kansas City in New Orleans and the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: This is New Orleans at full strength, This is New
Speaker 1: Orleans getting their players back. I also had Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: in by top five, though, and I don't know, like,
Speaker 1: can you be in the top five if you lose
Speaker 1: a game like that. No, no, I don't think he can. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So Tampa Bay, let me just be thorough. Let me
Speaker 1: just give the the stats on this. Let me find
Speaker 1: that game. Tampa Bay Brady twenty two of thirty eight
Speaker 1: for two oh nine, no touchdowns, three picks. He was
Speaker 1: sacked three times. They were out first downed, if you will,
Speaker 1: by the Saints to thirteen. The Bucks were one of
Speaker 1: nine on third down, oh for three on fourth, one
Speaker 1: of nine on third, zero for three on fourth. They
Speaker 1: had eight rushing yards eight American rushing yards. Chrissy. They
Speaker 1: were out gained four four. They were out time of
Speaker 1: possession forty oh four to nineteen fifty six. They fall
Speaker 1: the six and three. Now there's Carolina. Carolina loses to
Speaker 1: Kansas City by the score of thirty three to thirty one.
Speaker 1: They were ten point dogs. They were ahead much of
Speaker 1: this game. They end up missing a sixty seven yard
Speaker 1: or with no time left on the clock. Joey Slide
Speaker 1: just you know, had to over kick it and didn't
Speaker 1: have a chance. Did get sixty seven yards but wasn't closed.
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater Teddy Bear thirty six and forty nine for
Speaker 1: three ten, two touchdowns, no picks. He was sacked twice
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey and his return filling up a box score
Speaker 1: like nobody's business thirty six excusing partner eighteen for sixty
Speaker 1: nine and a touchdown on the ground ten for eighty
Speaker 1: two and a touchdown through the air Samuel nine for
Speaker 1: one oh five in a touchdown. There was an amazing
Speaker 1: drive by the Panthers when they fell behind in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, an incredible Samuel catch at an incredible McCaffrey catch,
Speaker 1: sandwiched by an awesome Teddy Bridgewater fourth and four fourth
Speaker 1: and fourteen conversion where he got it by leaping over
Speaker 1: basically the yard to gain marker. They were three of
Speaker 1: three on fourth by the way, the the Panthers yesterday,
Speaker 1: but they had twelve penalties for eighty two yards despite
Speaker 1: having the ball for over thirty eight minutes in this game.
Speaker 1: Four straight losses for the Panthers, all by eight points
Speaker 1: or fewer. But here's what gets me, and it gets
Speaker 1: back to inconsistent officiating. I talked about it rampantly last week.
Speaker 1: Incidents in the Eagles games and the Bears game, and
Speaker 1: in the Seahawks game certainly riddled in that Bucks Giants
Speaker 1: game with inconsistencies. Can we show that that photo. This
Speaker 1: is the last drive of the game for the Panthers.
Speaker 1: They're trying to get a field goal to win this game,
Speaker 1: and this is the play with is this with nine
Speaker 1: seconds left on the clock? Look how offsides the Chiefs are?
Speaker 1: They don't call this nine seconds left in the game.
Speaker 1: This is right beyond midfield. Should be a buzzer or
Speaker 1: something like that, with something like a tennis line buzzer
Speaker 1: or something. And the reason I bring up the photo
Speaker 1: is because with the naked eye, you could tell the
Speaker 1: Chiefs were off sides. Now, I'm not saying that's going
Speaker 1: to win the game for the Panthers, but it does
Speaker 1: turn a sixty seven yard field goal into a sixty
Speaker 1: two yarder, and sixty seven has never been done before,
Speaker 1: sixty two has and WEASTI I won't feel the need
Speaker 1: to overkick it the same way. And so when you
Speaker 1: don't call something like that just drives me nuts. And
Speaker 1: nobody said a word, None of the announcer said a word. Anyway,
Speaker 1: It was the game Tampa Bay Carolina. Uh, Tampa Bay
Speaker 1: still be a favorite here, but it won't be huge.
Speaker 1: Minus six. Is that too much? Well, I think it's
Speaker 1: too much. The market doesn't I see it's six and
Speaker 1: six and a half. I'm gonna open six. Um, you
Speaker 1: know my numbers come to four and a half. I
Speaker 1: really downgraded Tampa Bay. You know a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: ago when Tampa played the Packers and they blew them out,
Speaker 1: and I said on this show, and I taught to
Speaker 1: some other people too. You know, sometimes the game will
Speaker 1: take on a life of its own and some crazy
Speaker 1: things happened. I mean, it's football. There's turnovers and long
Speaker 1: runs and passes and stuff. Sometimes it's not indicative of
Speaker 1: how good the teams are good or back. And I
Speaker 1: think that was the case with Tampa Bay in Green
Speaker 1: Bay a couple of weeks ago. I didn't really lower
Speaker 1: Green Bay at all. I didn't lace Tampa either, But
Speaker 1: last night I think Campa got exposed. Um Brady, his
Speaker 1: QBR is three point eight and we expected you much
Speaker 1: more with all his uh, you know, his receivere a B.
Speaker 1: You know Antonio Brown coming on the team, and you
Speaker 1: know the receivers were supposed to be very healthy. But
Speaker 1: their defense is got exposed. Their offense got exposed. That
Speaker 1: game did not take on a life of its own.
Speaker 1: They legitimately got blasted. Um, I got this number four
Speaker 1: and a half, you know, And I think Carolina now
Speaker 1: with McCaffrey back in the lineup. And you know, my
Speaker 1: love for Teddy Bridgewater. He's not what he was. He's not,
Speaker 1: you know. I hope he's still a good quarterback. He's
Speaker 1: not gonna be great, but I think this team's coming around.
Speaker 1: I love Matt Ruld. I think he's one hell of
Speaker 1: a jaw for that team. Uh, six looks a little
Speaker 1: too high to me. Like I said, I made it
Speaker 1: four and a half. That's not a huge difference. But uh,
Speaker 1: you know, I think Campa got a little exposed last night,
Speaker 1: and I definitely downgraded him quite a bit because I
Speaker 1: think they that was not The score was not an aberration.
Speaker 1: The game was, but the score was not. They legitimately
Speaker 1: like blasted. Christie. You've said it to me a million times.
Speaker 1: I will say it to you here. I think I
Speaker 1: like your line better in this case, because I was
Speaker 1: debating between five and a half and six. In my head,
Speaker 1: five and a half seemed more, you know, was no
Speaker 1: man's land. So I just for whatever reason, six came
Speaker 1: out of my mouth. But six does seem a little high,
Speaker 1: and you're saying it's six or six and a half. Wow,
Speaker 1: I see some six and a half's. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: I'm opening six. I think that's funny. They'll probably lay
Speaker 1: it to him and they're welcome to it. Um. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought four and a half. I was going through
Speaker 1: the number. Geez, four, four and Alston. I might take
Speaker 1: a Sholott and Carolina there, you know, But at six
Speaker 1: and six and a half, how well? I mean, how
Speaker 1: often do we see legit blastings to use your word,
Speaker 1: like we did last night, Legit blowouts like that, let
Speaker 1: alone in a game that, on paper is supposed to
Speaker 1: be this amazing competitive game, so bad that I would
Speaker 1: imagine three quarters of the country just turn that game
Speaker 1: off in the second half. I know I did. I did.
Speaker 1: Starting to watch The Queen's Gambit courtesy of Jeff Vogel's
Speaker 1: recommendation It's excellent, by the way, little recommendation for you
Speaker 1: on Netflix. That's another story. We'll come back, we'll continue.
Speaker 1: I think we're halfway through guessing lines on a numbers
Speaker 1: game at Visa, these sports betting network for number two
Speaker 1: of a numbers game right here at Visa the Sports
Speaker 1: Betting Network series except Channel two O four, Visa dot Com,
Speaker 1: the Visa app Boobos Slinging Game plus Skill. Alexander Jason
Speaker 1: Conn is here. Christie Andrews, the star of guessing lines.
Speaker 1: I'm just warning everybody our two camp be as good
Speaker 1: as our web. This is my It's just the most
Speaker 1: fun way to start every week is just talking about
Speaker 1: games yesterday, looking forward to next week. What an already,
Speaker 1: let me just a calve yacht because we got a
Speaker 1: tweet here. Uh. And this gentleman is absolutely correct for
Speaker 1: pointing this out. This is from Corey who says sing
Speaker 1: McCaffrey is doubtful with the shoulder injury this week, So
Speaker 1: that is you know, you have to put that into
Speaker 1: the mix here of the number, So Caroline, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden makes a little more sense at six or
Speaker 1: six and a half. He did not miss any thing yesterday.
Speaker 1: Now he played. Christian McCaffrey did for the Panthers fifty
Speaker 1: two of their seventy five snaps yesterday. He took eighteen
Speaker 1: of their twenty two handoffs, caught ten of his ten targets,
Speaker 1: and remember he played right to the end, right. He
Speaker 1: he had that play where he went out of bounds
Speaker 1: to stop the clock right before the sixty seven yard
Speaker 1: attempt from Joey Fly, which was wide right to say
Speaker 1: the least, try to overkick the sixty seven yard So
Speaker 1: that's why we didn't notice it because he played through
Speaker 1: the games day. But there you go, Chrissie McCaffrey. Maybe
Speaker 1: right back on the shelf next week. Yeah, saw that
Speaker 1: some other guy tweet and two, Um, I still think
Speaker 1: I'm opening six, not six and a half. I still
Speaker 1: think I had numbers two. I myself, Carolina hasn't won
Speaker 1: a game with him in the lineup, you know that's right,
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, little, a little, uh yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know how much I read into that, but it is interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, let's not go overboard with that. But it
Speaker 1: mean it's just one factor. By the way, Jeff Bogol
Speaker 1: gave you a Queen's Game, Jeff, smart guy. When I
Speaker 1: got he's been on the COVID from the beginning, and
Speaker 1: he and I conversed a lot or texted a lot
Speaker 1: when it was when I had it, Um, smart guy,
Speaker 1: So Queen's Gamba. He recommended what we're sat on so
Speaker 1: it's on Netflix. Now. Let me just say this. The
Speaker 1: older I get. I've said this for a few years now,
Speaker 1: the older I get, the less ability I have to
Speaker 1: stomach fiction of any kind, whether written, whether you know,
Speaker 1: on TV, whatever, Like I needed to be rooted in
Speaker 1: some kind of fact asked to I'm a nonfiction kind
Speaker 1: of guy. The older I get it wasn't like this
Speaker 1: when I was younger. Perhaps I was a better human
Speaker 1: when I was younger. I don't know what that says
Speaker 1: about me. But Queen's Gambit, which is based on a
Speaker 1: novel which is not a true story, is excellent because
Speaker 1: it's about it. For if anybody who has ever played
Speaker 1: chess or is into just sort of it is there
Speaker 1: is a loose base of history of chess involved there. Uh,
Speaker 1: your girl can watch it with you, because there's like
Speaker 1: fashion elements to it. If you're into like mad Men
Speaker 1: era of the early sixties, where it's just like, you know,
Speaker 1: people were doing people were doing things that we would
Speaker 1: never do today. Oh yeah, drinking at ten in the morning,
Speaker 1: whatever it is, you know, smoking indoors. It's all of
Speaker 1: that melded into one. But the chess element of his excellence.
Speaker 1: So it's only a seven episode kind of season, so
Speaker 1: you know, you can watch it at your legion, but
Speaker 1: it is really well done. Excellent recommendation from Chess. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta let him by the way, I like fiction
Speaker 1: and non fiction. A lot of the fiction that I
Speaker 1: don't like, whether it's on TV, movies or books, they
Speaker 1: get these characters that are so un realistic. They just
Speaker 1: you know, they want them to be so bizarre with
Speaker 1: all this stuff. You know, No, I want something that
Speaker 1: told he's rooted in reality a little bit. Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I think just some things are just too crazy. I'm
Speaker 1: with you on that. Anyway, next game, not to the
Speaker 1: literary alit. Let's go back to football. Denver Denver at
Speaker 1: the Raiders, the literary Hour with Chris Andrews your pipe?
Speaker 1: What do you say Denver? A who? Who's this? Denver
Speaker 1: at Las Vegas ratings? How about those radus? First of all, Denver,
Speaker 1: uh Denver. That Denver Atlanta game was like everyone could
Speaker 1: have scripted in advance. Atlanta is gonna go out to
Speaker 1: a big lead, then Denver is gonna do their thing
Speaker 1: late in Atlanta is gonna flirt with blowing it. That's
Speaker 1: exactly how that game went. Atlanta ends up winning it
Speaker 1: UH thirty four to twenty seven. Denver put up twenty
Speaker 1: one in the in the fourth quarter. UH Denver Lock
Speaker 1: drew Lock for three thirteen, two touchdowns, one pick. He
Speaker 1: was sacked once, did carry for six six times for
Speaker 1: forty seven yards and a touchdown. I did not include
Speaker 1: him in the great Young Quarterbacks list from earlier. Some
Speaker 1: people in Denver might object, I don't have him in
Speaker 1: the top tier for sure, but even but but yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't either, but he's certainly better than
Speaker 1: what Washington and the Giants have shown or the Jets.
Speaker 1: Right well, I don't know if Jets fans might object.
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy seven for one and a touchdown, four hundred
Speaker 1: and five total yards of offense for Denver in defeat
Speaker 1: at the hands of the Falcons. By the way, skill
Speaker 1: Alexander Chris Andrews, this is a numbers game, guessing lines.
Speaker 1: It's what we do each at every Monday tribute to
Speaker 1: the old Stardust radio show where we try to extract
Speaker 1: value in this exercise and UH first look at handicapping
Speaker 1: the subsequent weeks or the upcoming weeks. Lines I should
Speaker 1: say with Chris Andrews the Raiders. Yesterday, the Raiders get
Speaker 1: it done. They beat the Chargers thirty one to twenty six.
Speaker 1: We'll get to the charge. We'll get to the Chargers
Speaker 1: in a minute. But the Raiders hang on the last
Speaker 1: play of the game to win this. By the way,
Speaker 1: Derek Carr was thirteen of twenty three, only completed thirteen
Speaker 1: passes for one sixty two touchdowns, no picks. He was
Speaker 1: sacked once. Derek Carr this year because this is the
Speaker 1: this is the Raiders formula for success. Derek Carr this
Speaker 1: year has sixteen touchdown passes in two picks. It's not
Speaker 1: mahomes Esk, but it's pretty good when you look at
Speaker 1: it through that through that lens. Sixteen touchdowns, two picks.
Speaker 1: The play I'm talking about one second left in the game.
Speaker 1: It's like every Chargers game ends this way. We're just
Speaker 1: talking about how every Denver. You know, if Denver Atlanta
Speaker 1: could have been scripted, you could have scripted this end
Speaker 1: to Chargers have the ball, chance to win it, one
Speaker 1: second left. Herbert passes Donald Palm Jr. In the back
Speaker 1: of the end zone with no time remaining. It looks
Speaker 1: like it's a touchdown. Its first rule to touchdown, then
Speaker 1: on replay correctly reversed ball moves, Raiders win. Raiders are
Speaker 1: five and three. I think this team might go to
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Playoffs, playoffs five and three. I'll say the
Speaker 1: Raiders Bronco, Raiders Broncos. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised
Speaker 1: if either team won this game. I'll say Raiders minus
Speaker 1: four and a half. Well, you're dead on. That's exactly
Speaker 1: what my power rating has come to. I think four
Speaker 1: and a half and five. I'm gonna open four and half.
Speaker 1: Like I said, exactly what my power rating came to.
Speaker 1: I talked about the Bengals being a kind of team
Speaker 1: that's going to cover some numbers. I made that note
Speaker 1: in my journal that I thought that the Broncos were
Speaker 1: going to be that kind of team too. You know,
Speaker 1: don't like the coach, really know the fans. I think
Speaker 1: the game is totally passing by. But I think I
Speaker 1: got a pretty good squad and Lock isn't bad. Uh.
Speaker 1: He's certainly not in with the quarterbacks you mentioned earlier,
Speaker 1: But I like them getting a bunch of points. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't call four and a half a bunch but I
Speaker 1: think that is enough, you know, a good chance to cover. Uh.
Speaker 1: But Derek Carr, he's playing some pretty good football and
Speaker 1: we don't talk about him much, nobody does. But this
Speaker 1: guy is fine. I would be like a seven year
Speaker 1: veteran something like that. He's finally coming around to being
Speaker 1: a pretty darn good quarterback. And Uh, this Raider team
Speaker 1: is pretty legit. They're good. Derek Carr sixteen touchdown passes
Speaker 1: again against two picks. Uh, And Derek Carr came out
Speaker 1: when he came out in teen draft. So yeah, do
Speaker 1: the mess seven year veteran right there, as you said.
Speaker 1: And if you look at the the NFL standings and
Speaker 1: you look at the a f C again, much football
Speaker 1: to be played. But if the playoffs were to start
Speaker 1: right now, and remember it's the new format with three
Speaker 1: wild cards, the Raiders would be in a monster tie
Speaker 1: for the second and third wild cards with the Colts,
Speaker 1: the Browns, and the Dolphins all five and three. So
Speaker 1: those four teams with jockey for those last two spots,
Speaker 1: with Baltimore getting the number one wild card spot as
Speaker 1: it's currently constituted. But yes, they're in the mix. In
Speaker 1: other words, are the Las Vegas Raiders, who, of course
Speaker 1: have a spanking new, brand new stadium that we drive
Speaker 1: by every day, and no one's allowed in it, or
Speaker 1: at least Mark Davis said no one, no one this year. Anyway,
Speaker 1: what's Mark Davis gonna do next year if we still
Speaker 1: have this Is he gonna say everybody can come in?
Speaker 1: Aren't they playing college games in there? That's a double check,
Speaker 1: but I think that they're playing. But with the Raiders,
Speaker 1: he specifically said this year, nobody comes in there this year,
Speaker 1: so he sort of painted himself into a corner with that.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're just speculating for next year, but anyway,
Speaker 1: that's a story. Hopefully we won't have these problems next year.
Speaker 1: Um So I'm just glad to get one right. So
Speaker 1: four and a half on the button, both of you
Speaker 1: and I had that correct. Okay, next next, Bills at
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Bills at the Cardinals. Okay, Bills beat the
Speaker 1: Seahawks yesterday. Jason, you know where I'm going with this.
Speaker 1: Bills beat the Cardinals yesterday by the final score. Of
Speaker 1: final score was forty four to thirty four. But this
Speaker 1: was a game that the Bills raced way out ahead
Speaker 1: early and then they they really sort of staved off
Speaker 1: the Seahawks got within a touchdown at one point, but
Speaker 1: that's it. That was quickly, Uh, you know, batted back
Speaker 1: the other way. Buffalo ends up winning it by ten.
Speaker 1: First half of this game. Josh Allen twenty four of
Speaker 1: twenty eight. This is the first half, twenty four of
Speaker 1: twenty eight for two eighty two, three touchdowns, no picks.
Speaker 1: He was sacked three times. He had one carry for
Speaker 1: seven yards. First half two two eight two. Full game
Speaker 1: thirty one of thirty eight for four fifteen, three touchdowns,
Speaker 1: no picks. He was sacked seven times. Is that right?
Speaker 1: Was he sacked seven times? To double check that. Stefan
Speaker 1: digs nine catches for one eighteen And we talked about turnovers, man,
Speaker 1: Yesterday was the the turnover box score day plus four
Speaker 1: in turnovers. That's the story. By the way, they were
Speaker 1: all Russell Wilson turnovers. Best start for the Bills at
Speaker 1: seven and two since nineteen three. And they're at Arizona.
Speaker 1: You said Arizona loses to the Dolphins. Loses to the
Speaker 1: Dolphins by a field goal. Uh. Kyler Murray twenty one,
Speaker 1: twenty six for two eighty three, three touchdowns, no Pixie
Speaker 1: Sack once eleven carries for one oh six and a touchdown,
Speaker 1: Kristen Kirk five for three and a touchdown a favorite target.
Speaker 1: Four hundred forty two total yards of offense for the
Speaker 1: Cardinals yesterday in defeat, a defeat that ended when Zane
Speaker 1: Gonzalez had a forty nine yard field goal attempt with
Speaker 1: one fifty three in the game and it was short.
Speaker 1: It was the weirdest thing, short, not not wide, short
Speaker 1: um one first down later by the Dolphins. It was
Speaker 1: Katie Barr. The door in that game was over. But
Speaker 1: I will just say this, and and Jason, this is
Speaker 1: what I was talking about. How I think you know
Speaker 1: where I'm going with this. We did the MGM Grid.
Speaker 1: This show is proudly brought to you by Bet MGM
Speaker 1: Nevada Everybody. And we did the bet MGM Grid on
Speaker 1: Fridays where we show Chrissy uh in all of ben
Speaker 1: MGMs jurisdictions who the most popular bet team is by
Speaker 1: the betting public on tickets, not on money. We did
Speaker 1: last week and so it's six different states, and then
Speaker 1: we show the overall and in every single state last week,
Speaker 1: their number one most bet team was the Seattle Seahawks
Speaker 1: against the number. And I had some buddies who their
Speaker 1: top play was the Seattle Seahawks, and I didn't. This
Speaker 1: is not in retrospect because I said it at the time.
Speaker 1: I didn't bet the Bills, so I'm not saying I
Speaker 1: bet against them, but I did openly wonder why was
Speaker 1: the conviction so strong on the Seahawks across every jurisdiction, right,
Speaker 1: So it overcame all kinds of biases, right, regional bias, um,
Speaker 1: public bias, whatever. Everyone was so sure Seattle, Well that's
Speaker 1: the thing. Recency bias was probably the biggest at play
Speaker 1: with that, but number one in every single state it
Speaker 1: was nuts. Uh. And so Buffalo Buffalo beats them easy.
Speaker 1: And then we talked about Arizona. All that said, buffaloes
Speaker 1: on the road. Here. This is an interesting line to
Speaker 1: try to predict because I will say this in defeat,
Speaker 1: and I know we like to say Russell Wilson's the
Speaker 1: last guy we want to bet against. Do you want
Speaker 1: to bet against Kyler Murray? Ever? Good? God? Is he good?
Speaker 1: And how about the Cardinals for making the Josh Rosen
Speaker 1: pick and then saying, you know what, we were wrong,
Speaker 1: We're gonna draft Kyler Murray. I think Arizona should be
Speaker 1: a favorite. Am I wrong by a field goal? Just
Speaker 1: super c Josh Allen was sax seven times. He was
Speaker 1: sex seven. Thank you, Chris. It's uh one and a half.
Speaker 1: I even see it two out there. Um, a couple
Speaker 1: of twos now that I'm looking one and I need
Speaker 1: the game picked them. Um, I guess I'll start a
Speaker 1: one and a half. The boy I've said somebody tweeted
Speaker 1: on and I wish I could give credit to who
Speaker 1: this was. But after halftime of that Bills game, the
Speaker 1: guy said, you know, if Seattle manages to keep this
Speaker 1: close to the second half, Josh Allen has a chance
Speaker 1: to break norm Van Brocklin's long standing record for total
Speaker 1: passing yards in an NFL game, which I think it's
Speaker 1: like five or something like that. Uh, you know, Allen
Speaker 1: didn't come too close to that. But boy, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what, this kid has really turned into a hell
Speaker 1: of a quarterback. And Buffalo you know they're they're not
Speaker 1: quite there yet with the high sessional lines of teams
Speaker 1: in the a f C. But I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I think the a f C is a lot better
Speaker 1: than the NFC too, So I think I made the
Speaker 1: game pick them. I like to pick. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: not getting one and a half or two isn't enough
Speaker 1: to make me play. But I would like Buffalo a
Speaker 1: little bit in this Spotify any kind of maybe plus
Speaker 1: money or something like that, I would take the Charlotte Buffalo.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go ahead and open one and a
Speaker 1: half one and a half. Okay, my love of Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray maybe got the best of me there with the
Speaker 1: three I will. I got a couple of tweets from
Speaker 1: people who are like, yeah, talk about their one dimensional
Speaker 1: talking about the Bills now. Bills fans were talking about
Speaker 1: their one dimensional offense. Now Gil, And I'm thinking to myself, like,
Speaker 1: first of all, I didn't bet against your team, so relax.
Speaker 1: And secondly, they were playing Seattle Seattle. Is his is
Speaker 1: epically bad, like they're historically bad on defense, So stop
Speaker 1: it with that. Um. Anyway, that was my clap back
Speaker 1: on it. All right, what's next? Speaking of Seattle Seattle
Speaker 1: at the Rams? Oh wow, this is gonna be impossible
Speaker 1: to make a line for this. Russell Wilson yesterday and
Speaker 1: defeat forty one for three nine two touchdowns, two picks
Speaker 1: sacked five times, two fumbles lost, four turnovers for Russell Wilson,
Speaker 1: DK metcalf beast seven for what a wait in a touchdown.
Speaker 1: But as I mentioned, Seattle was minus four in turnovers,
Speaker 1: and that's all you really need to know, really, I mean,
Speaker 1: if you have access to the box score, if you
Speaker 1: can see into the future and you see that a
Speaker 1: team is minus four in turnovers, you kind of know
Speaker 1: the result. Uh. And about that Seattle defense, just to
Speaker 1: put numbers to it, this is the numbers game, after all,
Speaker 1: most passing yards allowed by any team through eight games
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl era period period, that what the
Speaker 1: kids do on TikTok two thousand, eight hundred and nineties.
Speaker 1: Seven yards allowed through the air by the Seahawks through
Speaker 1: eight games by far the worst through eight games in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl era. So that's that's I mean to
Speaker 1: say that that's their Achilles. Heel does a disservice to
Speaker 1: the Achilles, which at least has the the decency to
Speaker 1: remain kind of anonymous until the Achilles rears up. But
Speaker 1: this is just out front and center. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just terrible. And Pete Carroll's a defensive coach. I mean,
Speaker 1: at some point you gotta look at him. I think
Speaker 1: they just gave them an extent they did. It feels
Speaker 1: like the game may have passed his defense by Dan Quinn,
Speaker 1: same thing. I like a girl with extensions in her hair,
Speaker 1: but I don't really like a guy of his age
Speaker 1: getting extension that long when his suspect coaching decisions during game. Um,
Speaker 1: Seattle let the rams rams coming off a bye, This
Speaker 1: is a this is a pick um if I've ever
Speaker 1: seen one, I wouldn't know what to make this line. Well,
Speaker 1: I liked your number better. Uh, I like pick because
Speaker 1: I thought the same as you. Uh. But I see
Speaker 1: the rams one and a half pretty much universally. Now.
Speaker 1: The only thing I will say about this, you know,
Speaker 1: I think with the rams coming off of by uh,
Speaker 1: it may it may help them. They formulated gang playing
Speaker 1: against this terrible, unbelievably terrible Seattle defense. So even though
Speaker 1: my power raidings do come to a pick and I M,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I can't see the one and a
Speaker 1: half just because I think the situation maybe does favor
Speaker 1: the Rams because of that buy. You know, we always
Speaker 1: hear that McVeigh is such an offensive genius he should
Speaker 1: be able to come up with something to exploit that
Speaker 1: terrible defense. So I think one and a half is okay.
Speaker 1: Like I said, even though my power waiters come to
Speaker 1: pick them. I know it's a stupid thing to say,
Speaker 1: but I'll be stupid for a second. If the playoffs
Speaker 1: were to start right now, Seattle, Arizona, and the Rams
Speaker 1: all in the playoffs and the bet does not cash,
Speaker 1: all four teams make the playoffs, well, and I think
Speaker 1: that's gonna happen. No, the Niners are such a mash unit.
Speaker 1: I mean, between between injuries and COVID. If you're if
Speaker 1: you're like a nine, we'll get to the Niners in
Speaker 1: a minute. But if you're if you're a Niners fan
Speaker 1: or a Niners backer with like season win totals, overs
Speaker 1: or whatever, you've got to be at the point where
Speaker 1: you're like, well, it's just the car, it's just the
Speaker 1: hand we were dealt. There's nothing we can do about this.
Speaker 1: You should never take the Super Bowl loser on an
Speaker 1: over the next season. I mean, it's not their fault,
Speaker 1: all right, what's next? Speaking of the Niners, miners at
Speaker 1: the Saint Unplanned, how we do that? Uh? Niners extra
Speaker 1: rest because they got beat by Green Bay. They got
Speaker 1: housed by green Bay on Thursday. And then there's the Saints.
Speaker 1: So we talked about crushed the Bucks yesterday. Drew Brees
Speaker 1: twenty six of thirty two for two twenty two. Soon
Speaker 1: if you can't throw the ball down field ford touchdown passes,
Speaker 1: no picks. He was sacked once. Um Taysom Hill was
Speaker 1: two for two forty eight, passing seven carries for fifty
Speaker 1: four yards on the ground, one catch for twenty one.
Speaker 1: I've been mean to Taysom Hill over time and questioned
Speaker 1: Sean Payton putting him in at random times, but it's
Speaker 1: kind of hard to argue with his performance last night.
Speaker 1: Let me be the first and say night. By the way,
Speaker 1: Jamis was one for one for twelve. Can I add
Speaker 1: that as well? Uh the Saints. The Saints were nine
Speaker 1: of fourteen on third downs. I mean they just the
Speaker 1: Bucks had no answers. I will say New Orleans by
Speaker 1: the full touchdown say minus seven. Well, it's almost universally nine.
Speaker 1: I even see a nine and a half. Wow, my
Speaker 1: power is from the seven and a half, you know,
Speaker 1: And I have to tell you I'm I'm still not
Speaker 1: totally convinced on the Saints. I mean, I don't know
Speaker 1: what that is, but I have them rated pretty high,
Speaker 1: of course, you know, but I don't have them up
Speaker 1: as highes like Green Bay or Pittsburgh or you know, Baltimore, Casey,
Speaker 1: I don't have him quite in that category. Um, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean nine, that's hard to argue with it.
Speaker 1: You've talked about the Niners being such a mash. I
Speaker 1: don't even know who they got anymore. You know, at Mullins,
Speaker 1: he's one of those guys when I look at his
Speaker 1: pure stats, don't look too bad. But where my A
Speaker 1: is QB was? You know, he just you know, he
Speaker 1: fills up the staff but I don't even want to
Speaker 1: say fills it up. But he looks good in the
Speaker 1: staff book, but you know, it just doesn't produce out
Speaker 1: on the field, you know, it just doesn't. And he's
Speaker 1: had a couple of good games, but he's yeah, he's
Speaker 1: he's a backup at best. Um, So I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with the nine. EVI get a good place to start, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's no George Kittle for you know,
Speaker 1: the rest of the regular season. It's gonna be Mullins,
Speaker 1: not Garoppolo. I don't know how much that means, but
Speaker 1: remember the guys from the beginning of the year, like
Speaker 1: Thomas and Bosta on the defensive line gone for the
Speaker 1: entire season. How good is Kyle Shannon? I know we
Speaker 1: he can throw in anybody. It's like a turnstyle in
Speaker 1: that backfield. Anybody performs. But yeah, at some point, you
Speaker 1: do you do worry that the Niners have a game
Speaker 1: in him where they can play very well in Shanahan's great,
Speaker 1: but man, um, it's just so tough. At some point
Speaker 1: you need bodies. Remember on Thursday night they didn't have
Speaker 1: a single player who took a snap on offense in
Speaker 1: last year's NFC Championship. Think about that, coming back guessing
Speaker 1: lines right here on the Numbers game and feasting these
Speaker 1: sports betting network Chrissy, any more daytime games next week? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but back to the Literary Hour in case anybody's listening,
Speaker 1: I have a novel written and I'm still looking for
Speaker 1: an agent. So if you're out there, you certainly know
Speaker 1: how to contact me. And as I was talking about
Speaker 1: during the Literary Hour, my characters are very realistic. I mean,
Speaker 1: these are guys that I know, and that's there's a
Speaker 1: gambling theme to it, Greek theme and Vegas theme and
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So I think I think I get
Speaker 1: it public. I think it'll sell really well and they
Speaker 1: and anyway, and I think it's good. I won't get
Speaker 1: detailed on this, but that's different from what you were
Speaker 1: talking to me about the other day. Yeah. That the
Speaker 1: novels written, and I'm working on another book right now
Speaker 1: that I don't really want to talk about too much yet.
Speaker 1: You know how I know the novels written, Chrissy, because
Speaker 1: it's sitting here right on my computer, ready to be Well,
Speaker 1: there's uh, it's been edited since then, you know, and
Speaker 1: even so, I had somebody helped me edit it. And
Speaker 1: it's even better than the one that I say. It's
Speaker 1: ready to go. That's ready to Yeah, you sound super
Speaker 1: hype about it too. I'm looking forward to I am,
Speaker 1: I am. I may gets terrific, I really do. All right, Last, okay,
Speaker 1: let's get back to football. Last early game. You want
Speaker 1: to do the last early game because it's kind of
Speaker 1: out of location, but let's do it that way. Okay,
Speaker 1: Chargers at the Dolphins. Yeah, we'll save the prime time
Speaker 1: for last Chargers at the Dolphins. We mentioned the Chargers again. Uh,
Speaker 1: last play of the game, chance to win it. Hey
Speaker 1: they won the game. Oh no, they didn't. Ball moved again.
Speaker 1: That was Herbert to H. Daniel Parham Jr. No, Sir,
Speaker 1: Chargers lose. Chargers lose. Justin Herbert forty two for three,
Speaker 1: twenty six, two touchdowns, no picks. He was sacked twice.
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen nine for one oh three a touchdown, four
Speaker 1: hundred and forty one total yards of offense for the
Speaker 1: Chargers in defeat at the hands of the Raiders. But
Speaker 1: here is the damage when you do the inventory on
Speaker 1: this football team every week. We could do it, but
Speaker 1: let's do it again. It's their sixth loss this season.
Speaker 1: Keep in mind there two and six. All six losses
Speaker 1: by seven points are fewer. Is that true? Fact check
Speaker 1: me on that if you adjacent, all six losses this
Speaker 1: season by seven points are fewer. Now, if you extended
Speaker 1: back into last season, they are three and fifteen. Are
Speaker 1: the Chargers in one possession games since the start of
Speaker 1: last season, three and fifteen this year in that category,
Speaker 1: they are one in six one in six in one
Speaker 1: possession games this year. It's their ninth straight division loss
Speaker 1: if you take it back. And the reason on the Charges,
Speaker 1: the reason that I'm taking it back passed before, you know,
Speaker 1: before this season is because's Anthony Lynn finally on the
Speaker 1: hot seat? Like I can. I understand he's a wonderful
Speaker 1: human being, but can he finally be on the hut?
Speaker 1: This can't keep happening. This can't keep happening. The Chargers, yeah,
Speaker 1: within within a touchdown any to their losses, Thank you, Jason.
Speaker 1: And then there's Miami, who we just talked about. Beat
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Zane Gonzalez missing the forty nine yard or
Speaker 1: short with one fifty three remaining, one first down later,
Speaker 1: Katie bar the door, Dolphins win it. The Dolphins have
Speaker 1: matched their season win total from last year. Last year
Speaker 1: they were five and eleven. Five and eleven, not too bad.
Speaker 1: It's my Steve Spurrier best start since they outscored Arizona
Speaker 1: tend to nothing in the fourth quarter yesterday to a
Speaker 1: to a Tugo Violoa two touchdowns, no picks, sack three times,
Speaker 1: made some nice little runs in consequential situations yesterday to
Speaker 1: move the chains. I'll say Dolphins by three. You know
Speaker 1: this game opened two and a half and three, and
Speaker 1: since that time, money has been showing on the Chargers.
Speaker 1: I don't see any threes around, uh, even with Jews,
Speaker 1: even with heavy juice. Uh so it's two and a half.
Speaker 1: I see a little bit of two an alf with
Speaker 1: juice on the favorite. My numbers come to five one game,
Speaker 1: one game that finds a way to lose every week,
Speaker 1: and another being that finds the way to win every week. Now,
Speaker 1: knowing the Chargers, they do cover a lot of those
Speaker 1: numbers that you know, get a absorb absorbent. I know
Speaker 1: I said that long, um, but you know five would
Speaker 1: probably be a take even for me, even though that's
Speaker 1: what my power ratings came to. I think this game
Speaker 1: should be at least three. I am gonna open to
Speaker 1: an app because, as Rocky says, go from to an
Speaker 1: ap of three and two is kind of actually created.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna open two and a half on this one.
Speaker 1: And uh but I'm putting a slash next to Miami
Speaker 1: and uh, well, I can hear the music. But I'll
Speaker 1: make another comment when we get back about the Chargers,
Speaker 1: Miami one wind and shy of pushing their season win
Speaker 1: total of six this year. I have that ticket and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, knocking at the door. Two games back of
Speaker 1: the Bills in the a f C East, Brian Flores
Speaker 1: some Coach of the Year considerations if they get there,
Speaker 1: I think so. Coming back, we'll wrap it up guessing lines.
Speaker 1: Two more games to get to right here on Visa
Speaker 1: the Sports Betting Network. Um, okay, back to the Chargers
Speaker 1: and uh, the Chargers game that we were just talking
Speaker 1: about against the Dolphins, Chrisy, you wanted to say something
Speaker 1: about the Chargers. Last thing I will say about the Chargers.
Speaker 1: Aaron Shots was on the show from Football Outsiders last
Speaker 1: week and he was talking about the least consistent teams
Speaker 1: and the most consistent teams per his numbers d v
Speaker 1: O a UH in the NFL this year through the
Speaker 1: previous week. And he was saying the least consistent teams
Speaker 1: in terms of week to week performance San Francisco, which
Speaker 1: is a lot to do with their you know, turnstyle personnel,
Speaker 1: and the Cleveland Browns, who you don't know what you're
Speaker 1: getting from them from one week to the next. The
Speaker 1: Chargers are actually the most consistent team in ball in
Speaker 1: terms of week to week performance, Like you know exactly
Speaker 1: what you're getting with them every week, they're going to
Speaker 1: show up and they're ultimately they're going to blow it.
Speaker 1: You're gonna smack your head with your hand. But he's
Speaker 1: just saying, in terms of their level of performance, it's this,
Speaker 1: it's the most consistent team in football. You wanted to say,
Speaker 1: Christy about the Chargers, Well, Warred Sharp has an article
Speaker 1: and I haven't had a chance to read it yet,
Speaker 1: but Warren is always known for being extremely thorough and
Speaker 1: just in kind of like the headline blurb, he's saying, yea,
Speaker 1: this is not a coincidence, and he goes through. He
Speaker 1: says in his article that he's gonna go through the
Speaker 1: time management, you know, game management with the clock and
Speaker 1: the play calling, and like I said, Warren is very thorough,
Speaker 1: especially in things like that. I haven't had a chance
Speaker 1: to read the article yet, but I think it can't
Speaker 1: be a coincidence. It can't be a coindtidence after all
Speaker 1: these close losses and you know you have from the
Speaker 1: eland does seem like a wonderful human being. He's not
Speaker 1: a head coach in the NFL. He just six loss
Speaker 1: this season by seven points or fewer three and fifteen
Speaker 1: in one position, one possession game since started last season,
Speaker 1: one in six this season. Cheese. They need a coordinator
Speaker 1: for chronic management. Not a coincidence. Yeah, at some point
Speaker 1: it's a pattern, not a coincidence. Sunday night, Chrisie, what
Speaker 1: you got excuse me that the Ravens at the Patriots.
Speaker 1: Ravens at the Patriots, Jason, you said they need a
Speaker 1: management coordinator for clock management, that you need a game
Speaker 1: situations coordinator. The head coaches don't seem to have mastery
Speaker 1: of that, and they're they're always the ones that seemed
Speaker 1: to be taken the blame. We've been saying it for years.
Speaker 1: Just have somebody to look at the clock, fire everything
Speaker 1: in advance, yeah, and know the situations before they come up. Baltimore,
Speaker 1: as we talked about, beats the Colts. Lamar Jackson first
Speaker 1: half yesterday was nine of thirteen for fifty one yards.
Speaker 1: First half, no touchdowns, Noe Pixy was sacked twice. He
Speaker 1: only had four carries for fifteen yards in the first half.
Speaker 1: At halftime, the Ravens had fifty five total yards of offense,
Speaker 1: the fewest and a half with Lamar Jackson a quarterback,
Speaker 1: and everybody was like, oh, maybe you heard the whispers.
Speaker 1: Maybe Lamar Jackson's not as good as we thought. It
Speaker 1: was finished the game nineteen of twenty three for one
Speaker 1: seventy no touchdowns, noe picks. He was sacked twice, thirteen
Speaker 1: carries fifty eight yards in a touchdown. It's Lamar Jackson's
Speaker 1: first career win when trailing at halftime. How about that?
Speaker 1: The raigning n L m v P, NFL m v P,
Speaker 1: want to say n L baseball mode. The raigning NFL
Speaker 1: m v P is now twenty five and three, excuse me,
Speaker 1: twenty five and five, pardon me, twenty five and five
Speaker 1: in the regular season since taking over. Is the Ravens
Speaker 1: start in the middle of the eighteen season that ties
Speaker 1: Dan Marino for the best start by a quarterback since
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty six. Dan Marino Lamar Jackson twenty five and
Speaker 1: five impressive company. They outscored the Colts seventeen to nothing
Speaker 1: in the second half, only had two hundred sixty six
Speaker 1: totally yards of offense in that game. They want it, though,
Speaker 1: and as I said earlier using the chess reference, once
Speaker 1: they have an advantage on you, where they get ahead,
Speaker 1: they have an ability to keep you down. That is
Speaker 1: reminiscent of great NFL historically great historically NFL, I mean
Speaker 1: historical great teams like the Skins. You know, you pick
Speaker 1: your team the eight five Bears pick your great NFL team.
Speaker 1: But they're not that, but yet they have this. They're
Speaker 1: so different when they're behind and when their head. The Ravens,
Speaker 1: the and the Patriots haven't played. The Patriots played tonight,
Speaker 1: so sight unseen with the Patriots tonight against the Jets.
Speaker 1: I'll say the Ravens is a placeholder minus six on
Speaker 1: the road here, Chris Well, it's mostly seven. Um, a
Speaker 1: couple of six and halves and mostly seven. Have my
Speaker 1: power ratings come higher, but again and then they inflect
Speaker 1: the diminishing returns. You don't want to go to high
Speaker 1: against a Patriots team. But listen, they're a mess, the Patriots,
Speaker 1: and you know, and Jason, I'm gonna come looking for
Speaker 1: you if they lose tonight because you put the eyes
Speaker 1: on me way too many times and telling you, uh,
Speaker 1: the employees do um I had a seven is probably okay?
Speaker 1: You know, seven half would probably a take my priorities
Speaker 1: come a little a little higher, just because they are
Speaker 1: such such a mess. And by the way, you're talking
Speaker 1: about the Ravens and knowing how to win a game
Speaker 1: wants to get to leave. Reminds me of the Bill
Speaker 1: Walsh Joe Montana teams, and Joey definitely he's way up
Speaker 1: there is like as far as fourth quarter comebacks and
Speaker 1: all that other stuff, but probably not as many as
Speaker 1: he should have because they put so many teams away
Speaker 1: in the first half. And between Joe and Bill Walsh,
Speaker 1: who's you know, everybody credits as being a genius, which
Speaker 1: she really is. You know, they knew how to just
Speaker 1: milk a clock and not turn the ball over, just
Speaker 1: not give that other team a chance to win. And
Speaker 1: they were a great, great team. But you go back
Speaker 1: and look, and I don't have the numbers in front
Speaker 1: of me, but they won so many games by it
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. They just totally eliminated the possibility of the
Speaker 1: team coming back on them. Uh and then wait, it's
Speaker 1: kind of like that a different, much much different style,
Speaker 1: but you know, kind of like the same mantra and
Speaker 1: Monday Night, Chrissie, Monday Night. You might turn this one off.
Speaker 1: Early two Vikings and the Bears. Vikings dominate the Lions,
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins is always the formula with the with the
Speaker 1: Vikings thirteen twenty two twenty. As long as he doesn't
Speaker 1: have to throw the ball that many times, you're good
Speaker 1: to go. Three touchdowns, no picks it sack Ones Dalvin
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook two carries for two oh six two touchdowns,
Speaker 1: two catches, forty six four eighty seven totally yards of
Speaker 1: offense for the Vikings plus three in turnovers. And then
Speaker 1: there's the Bears, so we've called paper tigers there back
Speaker 1: to five and four now, or they're down to five
Speaker 1: and four after a quick start of the season. Two
Speaker 1: offensive first downs in the entire first half yesterday for
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bay Airs too, they ended up with twenty
Speaker 1: two Nick Foles thirty six of fifty two for three
Speaker 1: thirty five two touchdowns. Doe Pacy was sacked three times,
Speaker 1: but again two in the first half and then that
Speaker 1: fumble return for a touchdown. Uh, this was just offensive
Speaker 1: ineptitude really when the game mattered. Cosmetic final score against
Speaker 1: the Titans twenty three points are fewer in all of
Speaker 1: full starts this year's. They're two and four with Nick
Speaker 1: Foles as a starter, minus two in turnovers in their game.
Speaker 1: As mentioned, um Minnesota at Chicago. You said, yes, check
Speaker 1: the weather. We got about thirty seconds here, because I
Speaker 1: want to get a recap in Chrissie. But I'll say
Speaker 1: Chicago minus of field goal just for expeditious sake. Here,
Speaker 1: Chicago minusu Fielable. Oh no, no, pardon me, Minnesota minus
Speaker 1: field goal. Pardon me? Okay, Well, once again, I like
Speaker 1: your number better. But it's two and a half. Even
Speaker 1: two and a half with a little bit of juice,
Speaker 1: five numbers come to four and a half night. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna first admit four and a half is too much
Speaker 1: in a game like this, but I thought it should
Speaker 1: be at least three. I'll open to a half of
Speaker 1: I don't see any threes opted, but if I see
Speaker 1: it going up, I'm gonna be on that bandwag and
Speaker 1: moving it up because I think that Vikings should be
Speaker 1: at least three. The Bears's just terrible. They're just terrible,
Speaker 1: and the Vikings are coming around. There's a team that's
Speaker 1: really I think it's a chance to make a move here,
Speaker 1: you know. And Dalvin quote he turned into Gale Sayers
Speaker 1: the last two weeks here looks unbelievable. He really did so.
Speaker 1: In the end, Chrissy. What I like the most is
Speaker 1: Cleveland is the most peculiar line of them all. I,
Speaker 1: by the way, excuse, I'm gonna open three and a
Speaker 1: half because I see I don't see any three and
Speaker 1: a halfs, but I see with three with juice on
Speaker 1: the favorite, I don't want to take about at three
Speaker 1: minus ten, so I'm opening three and a half. Okay,
Speaker 1: so even in these two hours, it's creeping towards towards
Speaker 1: my number of minus four and a half. Uh. That
Speaker 1: line made no sense to me. I'm I like Cleveland.
Speaker 1: They're based on the line. The other one is I
Speaker 1: like Carolina. But we will check on Christian McCaffrey status
Speaker 1: because that will matter a lot. But those are the
Speaker 1: two that for me were the ones that were noteworthy.
Speaker 1: You are you four? I got a mark next to
Speaker 1: I like Cleveland. I like Carolina just like you. And
Speaker 1: I also like the Giants and I like the Dolphins.
Speaker 1: Yeah you have the Dolphins way up in that five.
Speaker 1: You said, yeah, yeah, yeah, I like your Giant. I
Speaker 1: think I like your Giants too because I just don't
Speaker 1: think the Eagles are any good. But I can't be four.
Speaker 1: Come on, yeah, if it's over three. That's yeah. This
Speaker 1: thing is I don't want to race to the window
Speaker 1: about the giants either, don't get me wrong. So that's why.
Speaker 1: So I didn't get by the way, the boards are gone.
Speaker 1: It's all three and a half. There you go. All right,
Speaker 1: we'll get in on the action while you can't, because
Speaker 1: I might come down to three, which was my number. Chrissy,
Speaker 1: can't thank you enough. The quickest two hours in sports.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Man, My pleasure, my pleasure, my friend.
Speaker 1: I'll talk to you soon. All right, Christie Andrews right
Speaker 1: here guessing lines. We'll put it in podcast form case
Speaker 1: you missed any parts. Good luck tonight, pat Patriots and
Speaker 1: Jets from all of the beating. We spotty that way.
