Speaker 1: Welcome to Sharper's Square, presented by a hard brought Bet.
Speaker 1: We are part of the Volume podcast Network. This is
Speaker 1: the show that makes the Square Sharper. It makes the
Speaker 1: wise guys pay attention. I am Chadmilman, I am joined
Speaker 1: as always, Bye, my co hosts, my bff from my compadre,
Speaker 1: my companion professional better Simon Hunter. Hello, Simon Chad.
Speaker 2: How are we doing?
Speaker 1: Brother? I'm moving a little bit slowly today, so we
Speaker 1: got to pick it up. We got to pick it
Speaker 1: up and we gotta find our five favorite picks. This
Speaker 1: is the in the room easdropping version of the Sunday
Speaker 1: Sharper Square Show. In the morning, You're all going to
Speaker 1: get to hear how we come to our conclusion. Because
Speaker 1: we are human, we make decisions, we regret. I have
Speaker 1: no doubt that will happen today. Are you ready, my brother?
Speaker 2: Let's do it all right?
Speaker 1: Seattle minus thirteen at Tennessee. We have liked this all week.
Speaker 1: I will say we are starting to see signs even
Speaker 1: though it's a thirteen or hard rock bet that it
Speaker 1: is moving in the other direction. It's one of the
Speaker 1: few big numbers that is moving in the other direction
Speaker 1: towards Tennessee shows. Some wise guys are coming in on
Speaker 1: the Titans. I don't see it. I don't get it.
Speaker 1: This is the best team that the Titans have played
Speaker 1: in the past few weeks. It will go against their
Speaker 1: tendency to cover the back door. I don't think the
Speaker 1: Seahawks have the same holes that their opponents the past
Speaker 1: few weeks, the Texans and the Chargers have. I still
Speaker 1: like the Seahawks. Here. Is it one of our favorite five?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, because it's tough because it is
Speaker 2: such a big number. We don't like betting such big
Speaker 2: numbers like this.
Speaker 3: So if we're gonna put one big number favorite in there,
Speaker 3: I think you know where I'm gonna go with that.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I think I agree.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, I still bet Seattle.
Speaker 3: Still like Seattle. But we talked earlier in the week.
Speaker 3: There's some pros that really like Tennessee. They've been making
Speaker 3: money off Tennessee, like we talked about, since they fired
Speaker 3: their head. They've just been a backdoor covering machine. And
Speaker 3: it's interesting, like you just said this number thirteen here,
Speaker 3: but a lot of books you see are going down to.
Speaker 2: Twelve and a half.
Speaker 3: Twelve and some even touched eleven and a half, So
Speaker 3: it's some real money coming in on Tennessee at this point.
Speaker 3: And yeah, I think we're both on the same page
Speaker 3: where we don't see it. We don't really get it
Speaker 3: because the Seahawks team to us, there's just a very
Speaker 3: dominant defense where when Sam Donald puts it together, it's
Speaker 3: a great offense as well. So I just I can't
Speaker 3: see it. If I was gonna take a position, maybe
Speaker 3: I'll throw a little bit on Tennessee first half. But
Speaker 3: everything I've bet so far is just purely Seahawks and
Speaker 3: the number. But like you said, in our contest, we're
Speaker 3: playing the number here and I'm not thrilled to try
Speaker 3: be forcing in a big Seahawks number at thirteen and
Speaker 3: a half, and that's what it is in our contest.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna have to pass on that.
Speaker 1: One, especially when the next game we're talking about the
Speaker 1: New York Giants at the Detroit Lions. The Lions have
Speaker 1: moved to twelve and a half and moved to twelve
Speaker 1: and a half after our Thursday show. We've been typing
Speaker 1: the Lions all week at ten at ten and a half,
Speaker 1: they were your Simon says there were some rumors Jackson
Speaker 1: Dart might play this week, it's going to be Jamis.
Speaker 1: I always was betting into it thinking it was Jamis.
Speaker 1: We love the Lions here. I think it's going to
Speaker 1: be impossible for us to ignore the Lions as the
Speaker 1: big favorite against the Giants.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been my favorite all week, big favorite.
Speaker 3: And uh, like you said, the Dart and Neuve, that
Speaker 3: was the most shocking part of Yeah, Dark Dark getting
Speaker 3: put out as moved this two and a half three points,
Speaker 3: like hard Rock now is up to thirteen.
Speaker 2: A lot of other books are up to thirteen and
Speaker 2: a half. The more public BOOKSHO up to thirteen and
Speaker 2: a half.
Speaker 3: So just shows you this early morning, which we knew
Speaker 3: was going to happen, right, the public was going to
Speaker 3: come in heavy on this Detroit side, but surprisingly the
Speaker 3: pros were betting the Giants. It was a Dart bet,
Speaker 3: which again I just I get he's highly talented.
Speaker 1: It never made sense though, It never made.
Speaker 3: Sense, like you're you're really betting heavy into Dark coming
Speaker 3: off a head injury in this matchup that I'm not
Speaker 3: sure you can exploit really, But yeah, the we obviously
Speaker 3: feel way more comfortable now the lines going the other
Speaker 3: way and we have the best of the number, which
Speaker 3: I hope if you listen to the show did because
Speaker 3: our contest, like you just said, it's minus ten and
Speaker 3: a half. So I still would bet the lines if
Speaker 3: you could get the twelve and a half. I just
Speaker 3: I think people listen to this is going to be
Speaker 3: already thirteen thirteen and a half, which again I'm not
Speaker 3: going to let scare me off. It's as much praise
Speaker 3: you want to get.
Speaker 2: Jameis Winston.
Speaker 3: I think he threw for twardy yards zero touchdowns last week,
Speaker 3: Like he's not he just doesn't have the weapons. Like
Speaker 3: we've seen Jameis play really well, especially in Tampa and
Speaker 3: different offenses he's had. He had great weapons there. He
Speaker 3: doesn't really have that with this Giants team. So Giants
Speaker 3: got the cover last week, the Pros they try to
Speaker 3: come back on him this week, thinking it was gonna
Speaker 3: be Jackson Dart.
Speaker 2: They totally misread it.
Speaker 3: And yeah, I'm just happy we stuck through our Detroit
Speaker 3: love and like I said, it's it's moving. If you
Speaker 3: can get it below the thirteen and a half, I
Speaker 3: would try to do that.
Speaker 1: Now never even made sense to me. It never occurred
Speaker 1: to me that Jackson Dart was going to be the
Speaker 1: reason why this line would be holding it ten and
Speaker 1: a half from moving up to twelve and a half
Speaker 1: that he was out. This was Detroit all the way
Speaker 1: all week. New England at Cincinnati. It's been a tricky one.
Speaker 1: The Bengals are seven seven and a half point underdogs
Speaker 1: depending on where you look, it's everywhere. If you can
Speaker 1: get the seven and a half, you should go get it.
Speaker 1: The Cincinnati Bengals, with Joe Flacco starting, are going to
Speaker 1: be our rocket. A hard plays hard rock better the week.
Speaker 2: Oh what a lot.
Speaker 1: Look, we were betting into this early in the week
Speaker 1: when we thought it was going to be Joe Flacco.
Speaker 1: Then the rumors came out it might be Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: that moved under six and a half. When it became
Speaker 1: Flacco went back up to seven and a half. Nothing
Speaker 1: in my opinion or position has changed. The Bengals are
Speaker 1: just the right side here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like you said, it's I honestly am shocked
Speaker 3: that Burro didn't get his way and able to play
Speaker 3: this game. They said, they're just trying to protect them
Speaker 3: because it's a short week, right, They have a game
Speaker 3: I believe Thursday and Thanksgiving against the Ravens. So you
Speaker 3: know that makes sense, right, they're trying to protect himself
Speaker 3: in this matchup. But I am also shocked the number
Speaker 3: only moved by a point, which was interesting, right.
Speaker 2: Because it got down to two and a half.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was hoping it would get up to eight
Speaker 3: eight and a half like it was ear in the week.
Speaker 3: But the books, like you just said, they're holding firm
Speaker 3: at seven and a half, and even hard Rock is
Speaker 3: still stuck at seven. So pretty unique scenario. We know
Speaker 3: what we're been into here since these defenses atrocious. If
Speaker 3: Flaco throws a pick six, we're probably gonna be burned.
Speaker 3: But we keep talking about this new England team as
Speaker 3: good as they are.
Speaker 2: If do you have weaknesses, you can exploit.
Speaker 3: This SEXTU year a really good matchup for Cincinnati Offensively,
Speaker 3: it's just all about Kenjoe Flack would keep up with
Speaker 3: this scoring race because we've seen Drake may even he
Speaker 3: has a thron for three undred yards this year. I
Speaker 3: think he's leading the league in passing yards. I know
Speaker 3: that's a part because he doesn't have a bye week yet,
Speaker 3: but it just shows how consistent, the offense is right.
Speaker 3: Even on bad days, may still throw for two ndred
Speaker 3: yards and get putting his team in best positions to win.
Speaker 3: So you know, we gave up the stat they won
Speaker 3: age straight. They're due for a letdown game, do for
Speaker 3: a Walls. Just a couple of teams like that this
Speaker 3: week them and the Eagles feel like the prime example
Speaker 3: of teams they're just due for a loss and a
Speaker 3: bad spot because it's just matchup wise not great for them.
Speaker 2: So in our.
Speaker 3: Contest, Chad, we're never gonna avoid it. Cincinnati Bengals are
Speaker 3: plus eight and a half. So this is the game
Speaker 3: I put in for us whatever that was Tuesday or Wednesday,
Speaker 3: and I just knew doesn't matter if it's gonna be
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow or Flako, We're gonna be playing as long
Speaker 3: as one of the Joe's, Like I said all week,
Speaker 3: we'll be on this number.
Speaker 2: So you know, Flacco set his shoulders good. We gotta
Speaker 2: trust him and take this and play this matchup.
Speaker 1: Detroit and Cincinnati. We're on it was it was always
Speaker 1: going to be later in the day when we're talking
Speaker 1: about the one we left out and the one we've
Speaker 1: kept in. We know that these were always going to
Speaker 1: be in no matter what, So we cannot walk away
Speaker 1: from the idea that, oh, if only we had left
Speaker 1: one of these out, because we're not another one. I
Speaker 1: have felt strongly all week. Chad Choice Arizona is a
Speaker 1: two and a half point underdog at home against the
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. I said on Tuesday it was Chad Choice
Speaker 1: at two and a half, but I told everybody wait
Speaker 1: for it to get to three. It got to three
Speaker 1: and immediately got that back down to two and a half.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm being irrational. I love the Cardinals here. I
Speaker 1: feel like the Cardinals, which a Kobe Brissett, are a
Speaker 1: different offense. It doesn't matter that Marvin Harrison Junior isn't playing.
Speaker 1: He'll just throw Mike Wilson into one hundred and eighty
Speaker 1: five yards. He'll find Trey McBride for ten receptions. I
Speaker 1: think that this Jaguars team is winning on the guts
Speaker 1: and guy and smarts of Liam Kohane, not anything to
Speaker 1: do with Trevor Lawrence, who I think he's trying to
Speaker 1: diminish the impact he can have. Negatively, Liam Cohne is
Speaker 1: trying to diminish the impact Trevor Lawrence gonna have on
Speaker 1: this game. And also the Cardinals might be getting back
Speaker 1: two of their four defensive backs they have been missing
Speaker 1: for the past few weeks when this defense has been
Speaker 1: beginning to creator. So I love the Cardinals here, Simon.
Speaker 1: I love him, and I don't think we can leave him.
Speaker 2: Out, all right, I'll put him in for you.
Speaker 3: I like the Cardinals. Why I bet it, Like you said,
Speaker 3: it's it's a type of number. I would have put
Speaker 3: a lot more if they weren't historically horrible defensively, this
Speaker 3: Cardinals team.
Speaker 2: But like we keep saying, it feels like a nice
Speaker 2: spot for.
Speaker 3: This Cardinals team, a team that you know, as much
Speaker 3: as people don't want to believe it, because like you
Speaker 3: talked about, the Jags are six and four, They're not
Speaker 3: that much better when you really break it all down
Speaker 3: than the three and seven Cardinals right now. So it's
Speaker 3: not shocking that this is a huge play by the
Speaker 3: public dis Draguars team. But it is shocking to me
Speaker 3: how even the money is. Like you said, the professionals
Speaker 3: have really come in on this Cardinals side. So I
Speaker 3: like it enough to put it in. You seem to
Speaker 3: really love it, So I'm happy to put this as
Speaker 3: one of work five.
Speaker 1: All Right, our brass balls bet of the week was
Speaker 1: New Orleans. I think we got it at minus two
Speaker 1: against Atlanta. To me, this wasn't a bet on the
Speaker 1: Saints or believing that they are a competitive team, or
Speaker 1: the Tyler Shock is all of a sudden going to
Speaker 1: be a serviceable NFL quarterback. It's really about betting against
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, betting against the fact Drake London is out,
Speaker 1: Drake London, who accounts for something like forty percent of
Speaker 1: the team's passing yards. So to me, this is entirely
Speaker 1: betting against Atlanta, not betting on New Orleans. How are
Speaker 1: we feeling today?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't believe it.
Speaker 3: Obviously, if you've been watching the number, A ton of
Speaker 3: professional money's coming on this falcon side, because I got
Speaker 3: to two and a half hard Rock here in Jersey's
Speaker 3: down to one and a half on this game, so
Speaker 3: it looks like that's where everyone's going.
Speaker 2: They're moving this line back down and yeah, this.
Speaker 3: Will be a line I love like you do, where
Speaker 3: you know it's not ideal aves for we don't really
Speaker 3: believe in this kids, shuck, but we believe in the
Speaker 3: matchup for the Saints team, and we just want to
Speaker 3: fade Kirk Cousins while we possibly can. So I'm just
Speaker 3: looking at the splits right now. Again, every book is different.
Speaker 3: A couple of bookmakers I've talked to you, they said
Speaker 3: it was pretty split money. But just look at the
Speaker 3: really public books right now. It's a lot of Falcons money.
Speaker 3: So pretty interesting that the public is coming in so
Speaker 3: heavy on this Falcons team.
Speaker 2: Like we said, it's the Saints off.
Speaker 3: Of bye week, you would think they'd be able to
Speaker 3: prepare and play pretty well here in the spot against
Speaker 3: a Falcons team that's missing their best weapon in Drake Lynn.
Speaker 3: I'm I guess Bijon Robinson's their best weapon, but people
Speaker 3: know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Drake London.
Speaker 3: He's just been an absolute game changer for this team
Speaker 3: and their whole offensive passing game runs through him.
Speaker 2: So we already think Kirk Cousins terrible.
Speaker 3: Now you're taking away his number one option. I just
Speaker 3: I can't get behind this Atlanta team. So if it's
Speaker 3: if it's our last one in, I'm cool with it.
Speaker 3: They're like, we'll see how you feel about these other
Speaker 3: games are gonna bring up here, But Saints right now
Speaker 3: are minus one and a half in our contest. That's
Speaker 3: what I bet them on. I like the Saints. It's
Speaker 3: just I'm a little worried about taking shook here. I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I am too, but at one and a half,
Speaker 1: I kind of like the number, and I just have
Speaker 1: no faith in the Falcons. Their lack of offensive ability
Speaker 1: here worries me. And the one thing that I would
Speaker 1: say about the Saints, who again, I have not been
Speaker 1: a Saints backer all season that I think this will
Speaker 1: be the first time I bet them. I do think
Speaker 1: defensively they're competent against the run, and you mentioned Bijon.
Speaker 1: The one thing the Falcons we know they're gonna have
Speaker 1: to do is rely on Bijon and the running game.
Speaker 1: So if there is a matchup that favors or gives
Speaker 1: the Saints some credibility, it is against the runs. Right now,
Speaker 1: we've locked in Detroit, We've locked in Cincinnati, we've locked
Speaker 1: in Arizona. We like the Saints. There are a couple
Speaker 1: of games that I think we still have to talk
Speaker 1: about to get to our final one slash two Philadelphia
Speaker 1: at Dallas. This thing is settled at three I've started
Speaker 1: to come around on Dallas. I know you've been betting
Speaker 1: into Dallas all week. I think that I don't want
Speaker 1: to overstate Dallas's defense getting better off of one game
Speaker 1: against the Las Vegas Raiders, but I do think they
Speaker 1: have improved, and I think with Quinn Williams, they all
Speaker 1: of a sudden are a lot more competent defensively and
Speaker 1: getting guys back from the injured list. But I do
Speaker 1: worry a lot about the Eagles offense right now and
Speaker 1: not having Lane Johnson.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I honestly, I don't really trust this Cowboys
Speaker 3: defense is really I think both of us are just
Speaker 3: fading the Seagles offense or just something seems wrong with them.
Speaker 3: Like you said, now without Lane, it's gonna be interesting
Speaker 3: how they do because we've seen those trends like Jalen
Speaker 3: Hurst has not been good without Lane Johnson on that field.
Speaker 2: And you know, once again.
Speaker 3: Another game where I try to tell people a really
Speaker 3: smart group that came in very heavy taking position on
Speaker 3: this Cowboys team, and I just knew this number was
Speaker 3: gonna disappear, and it did, right The three and a
Speaker 3: half has disappeared, So lucky enough for us, our contest
Speaker 3: is three and a half. I was never gonna let
Speaker 3: us not take this for our picks. It's just a
Speaker 3: unique spot we have to play. And even if I
Speaker 3: don't believe in this Cowboys defense, I just I think
Speaker 3: there's something terribly wrong with this Eagles offense. And as
Speaker 3: much as I want to believe, this is a right
Speaker 3: spot for them, Like you said, Lane is out, the
Speaker 3: Avante Smith is up in the air.
Speaker 2: He traveled individually, separate from the team.
Speaker 3: He's got a lot of stuff going on in his
Speaker 3: personal life, so you know, there is a possibility DeVante
Speaker 3: Smith might be a healthy scratch. And now that's even
Speaker 3: more of a weakness to this team. So for the Eagles,
Speaker 3: of course, this is a get right game. But I
Speaker 3: just look at this Dallas team and you know, I
Speaker 3: think offensively, we talked about it in the Week one
Speaker 3: I will always favor this Dallas team. And they're playing a
Speaker 3: team the week number two corner, and that's what the
Speaker 3: Eagles have. They have a week number two corner. So
Speaker 3: you know, the Eagle strength or is that d line,
Speaker 3: That linebacking corps. Downfield passing has been their weakness all season.
Speaker 3: That seems like we're dak is really excelled, especially with Ferguson.
Speaker 3: The tight ends really showed up this year. So I
Speaker 3: just look at the matchup wise. I love it for
Speaker 3: Dallas here and once again we love the numbers, so
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be scared off while the Cowboys taking the three.
Speaker 3: I've said it, I don't want people touching the Eagles
Speaker 3: at all, money line or anything else. It's just I've
Speaker 3: been warned myself, so I'm trying to warn people off
Speaker 3: of it. It just seems like the pros of circlust
Speaker 3: is a trap game and that this is a loss
Speaker 3: on the Egle schedule, which I know you can't repre
Speaker 3: head around it, but it's just like that Thursday night game.
Speaker 3: I couldn't wrap my head around them telling me that
Speaker 3: Houston was a trap game for Bills and they're gonna
Speaker 3: lose that game out right. You gotta see it to believe,
Speaker 3: and I feel it's the same thing here. Well, we'll
Speaker 3: get the vibes early on here if this is a
Speaker 3: good pick or not. And like I always say, the Eagles,
Speaker 3: their offense is.
Speaker 2: Gonna break through eventually.
Speaker 3: But the way it is right now, just going back
Speaker 3: and rewatching that game you can see the receivers don't
Speaker 3: believe in the offense.
Speaker 2: I don't think Hurts believes in it.
Speaker 3: So I just think it's totally dysfunction right now on
Speaker 3: this Eagles side and the Cowboys, you're getting a great
Speaker 3: number anything three and above.
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh again again again again, we're good on the
Speaker 1: Cowboys at plus three, it's not a question for us.
Speaker 1: So the Cowboys will be in our contest. That's four.
Speaker 1: So now we're looking at the Saints as being the
Speaker 1: fifth one in Do we talk about the Colts? Are
Speaker 1: we talking about Carolina?
Speaker 2: No matter what?
Speaker 1: Interesting to me.
Speaker 3: It's got to be a road team because right now
Speaker 3: we're sitting on five home teams, which isn't isn't it ideal?
Speaker 3: And uh, you know we basically this week we have
Speaker 3: a weird thing. We love all the home teams. I
Speaker 3: do love some road teams, but I don't know how
Speaker 3: Coffee you feel him?
Speaker 2: So two road dogs.
Speaker 3: I really like his Pittsburgh plus two and a half
Speaker 3: and the Colts plus three and a half. Now, this
Speaker 3: Colts team, I get it. The hesitation, right, it's Daniel
Speaker 3: Jones outdoors against a really good defense, and we've seen
Speaker 3: him struggle in this exact spot. But they're getting their
Speaker 3: number one cornerback, Like, that's a big deal to me.
Speaker 3: The fact that Ward is coming back in this matchup.
Speaker 3: They have him in sauce now in the field together.
Speaker 3: That's the first time they've had this matchup all season.
Speaker 3: Because I don't know if you remember, I think Ward
Speaker 3: got a cushion in their warm ups right he ran
Speaker 3: into a teammates. I don't know if you read about it,
Speaker 3: it's terrifying, and it's like, again, I'm not trying to
Speaker 3: get a whole ct ran, but he shouldn't be He
Speaker 3: shouldn't be playing in this game. He said he did.
Speaker 3: He didn't know who he was for a little bit.
Speaker 3: For a day or two after it, It's like, what
Speaker 3: are we doing here? But again, he's their best corner.
Speaker 3: He is gonna play, he's back. We have to take
Speaker 3: advantage of that scheme. I think that's a huge matchup.
Speaker 3: And this is another number where I thought, just like
Speaker 3: the Cowboys, this would just be threes across the board.
Speaker 3: But talk to a lot of pros, like we've talked about,
Speaker 3: there's some trends that really favor this Chiefs team, and
Speaker 3: they love this Chiefs team, and I think it's them
Speaker 3: just chasing the ghost of the past.
Speaker 2: It was like last week. I mean, we saw the Chiefs.
Speaker 3: Get up to what four and a half before kickoff
Speaker 3: against Denver. So it's like the pros keep being into
Speaker 3: and they keep getting burned, and they keep saying, well, no.
Speaker 2: It's this week.
Speaker 3: So I'm not gonna let the professional might scare me off.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna dig in here on this Colts team. I
Speaker 3: just really love the number in the side, and I
Speaker 3: think Mahomes will win this game.
Speaker 2: They're the more desperate team.
Speaker 3: I just feel like they need a lot of things
Speaker 3: to go where they really do need a Daniel Jones
Speaker 3: meltdown to me to cover this number, just because looking
Speaker 3: at the matchups, Jonathan Taylor's gonna be able to get
Speaker 3: his I think run wise, he'll be able to get
Speaker 3: his against a Chiefs defense. I struggled in some aspects
Speaker 3: against good running games. And you know, I think it's
Speaker 3: a big deal. They got their number one cornerback where
Speaker 3: Chiefs offense, we kept saying it last week. We kept
Speaker 3: expecting Mahomes to save people at them there, right, you
Speaker 3: expect them when you got the ball back to drive
Speaker 3: the field and he didn't. He punted the back to
Speaker 3: bon next who drove the field and got the field goals.
Speaker 3: So it's just about the number chat. I know you
Speaker 3: don't love it. It's a little bit of a scary
Speaker 3: spot because it's just Daniel Jones and Arrowhead. But I
Speaker 3: really liked the three and a half here. And if
Speaker 3: I can't get you on that one, because I talk
Speaker 3: into Pittsburgh against the Bears.
Speaker 1: Well, would you rather do Pittsburgh or Carolina plus seven
Speaker 1: against San Francisco. K.
Speaker 2: I just there's something about the Carolina I just don't like.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna bet it because it is seven
Speaker 3: and a half now at almost every book, But I
Speaker 3: just I don't get it. I do not get the
Speaker 3: number movement. And they were taking all Panthers money. Like
Speaker 3: I've talked to four different books over the last two days,
Speaker 3: and you know, the one pit Boss was joking me,
Speaker 3: it's just like where actually begging for four nunders money
Speaker 3: right now? I'm like, we're gonna get it. People are
Speaker 3: to come in on their money line parlay is I
Speaker 3: just I was shocked here. There's so much public faith
Speaker 3: in Carolina and also for us in our contest. They're
Speaker 3: six and a half, so I just I can't get
Speaker 3: there on them.
Speaker 2: Chat.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Uh, I'd much rather do Colts than stealers.
Speaker 2: Colts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I know you saw the Bears injury report though, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Look, they're missing all three of their linebackers.
Speaker 3: All three, and I think between the three guys they
Speaker 3: are starting have two snaps between them in the NFL
Speaker 3: or something ridiculous like that. It's it just feels I
Speaker 3: got terrible, terrible spot for the Bearers, but I get it.
Speaker 3: We're like, we're we don't even know if Rogers is
Speaker 3: the quarterback. Honestly, I don't care. But if I'm just
Speaker 3: strictly going off the number, I prefer obviously the Colts
Speaker 3: because we're getting the three and a half hook.
Speaker 1: That's kind of what that's my thinking is. I think
Speaker 1: they're two and a half versus three and a half,
Speaker 1: So give me the Colts getting more than a field
Speaker 1: goal rather than the Steelers, who and the Bears who
Speaker 1: have been cardiac every single week and who knows, you.
Speaker 2: Know, I'm cool, that's right now.
Speaker 3: We'd have Colts sincey Detroit, Arizona, Dallas.
Speaker 1: So we got and so we're taking out New Orleans?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had them as our fifth.
Speaker 3: Is there a I mean, if there's another thing you'd
Speaker 3: rather switch out, like the only one I honestly am
Speaker 3: worried about for us is the Bengals, just like last week. Yeah,
Speaker 3: of course, it's like, are we gonna get burned again
Speaker 3: by this Bangals team that we just know is atrocious defensively?
Speaker 3: But I just I can't avoid it. Eight and a
Speaker 3: half is such a good number.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want to take out the Bengals. I
Speaker 1: can't believe I'm saying that. I feel like the Colts
Speaker 1: are a better bet right now than that the Saints
Speaker 1: are a better bet than the Colts.
Speaker 3: I mean, I get it. It feels like it's a
Speaker 3: nice number of we're fading Kirk. I just I don't
Speaker 3: know if I can let us just put five home teams,
Speaker 3: so we have to at least take one road team.
Speaker 2: Why though, I just.
Speaker 1: I don't want to choose five road teams. Are gonna
Speaker 1: win if we choose the five road teams then, right.
Speaker 2: But I'm saying like we're in a spot where we're
Speaker 2: on again.
Speaker 3: It's just I'm just looking at it just doesn't look
Speaker 3: right to have all five of our picks be home teams.
Speaker 3: I know it sounds stupid, but these little things that
Speaker 3: these little quirks of my chat saves us usually when
Speaker 3: I look at weird things like this. So if you
Speaker 3: want to own it, I'll let you own it. If
Speaker 3: you want to do Saints over Colts, I just I
Speaker 3: think it's a mistake.
Speaker 1: Well that's where it makes it fun.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Uh, I don't know, man, I'm completely torn. I bet
Speaker 1: into the Saints much more aggressively than I've bet into
Speaker 1: the Colts. You bet into the Colts, I think, much
Speaker 1: more aggressively than you bet into the Saints.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's definitely true.
Speaker 1: Last week, I think it was on me and I
Speaker 1: took I think I ended up taking the Panthers instead
Speaker 1: of the Raiders. So this week, why don't we go
Speaker 1: with you and you could take the Colts instead of
Speaker 1: the Saints, and we'll make for fun drama later in
Speaker 1: the day.
Speaker 2: All right, it's the final.
Speaker 1: The final five will be Colts plus three and a
Speaker 1: half Dallas plus three and a half in the contest,
Speaker 1: but we still love them at three the Cards plus
Speaker 1: two and a half. Since he's at seven and a half,
Speaker 1: but they're eight and a half in the contest. We
Speaker 1: like them at both Numbers and Detroit. There are ten
Speaker 1: and a half in the contest. If you can find
Speaker 1: the twelve and a half for Detroit, you still want
Speaker 1: to get the twelve and a half. Today's show is
