Some thoughts watching the Packers, Well, you know, 34 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: if you're a Packer fan and you're rooting for Jordan Love, 35 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: your takeaway could be Hey, last couple of weeks, he's 36 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: been very solid in the second half. He's been a gamer, 37 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: playing from behind. I like his fight. He doesn't quit. 38 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: He's got good mobility. He got in the end zone 39 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: and threw a left handed pass out of the end zone. 40 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: If you're not a Packer fan and you have questions 41 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: about him. You could say last two weeks he has 42 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: buried himself in the franchise, getting into a big hole, 43 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: huge deficit, playing from behind when opposing defenses. Let's be honest. 44 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: You know Derek Carr got hurt. Lion's going to a 45 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: more conservative mode, time clock eating offense, maybe play a 46 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: little less aggressive prevent defense. It depends on your perspective. 47 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: As I've said before, I'm going to give him two 48 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and then I'll have a definitive opinion on Jordan Love. 49 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: My takeaway now is he's up and down. I don't 50 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: see a ton of special although I think he moves 51 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: really well. He's not overwhelmed. He gets out of trouble, 52 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: he escapes, he doesn't panic. He's more than competent again 53 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: in this day and age. He moves well, good size, 54 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: nice arm. All the elements are there tonight. The Detroit 55 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: Lions are a better football team. Jared Goff's a better quarterback. 56 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: He was drafted number one. He was a better high school, 57 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: college and so far pro quarterback than Jordan Love. They 58 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: controlled the game. They have a better offensive line. I 59 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: don't want to hear Packers were injured. You get to 60 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: week four, five six in the NFL, everybody's hurt. You know, 61 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: everybody's banged up. Detroit's a better football team. This has 62 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: been a laughing stock of the franchise for years. And 63 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: it's very possible of golf stays in Detroit, or they 64 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: draft another quarterback and get it right, they're going to 65 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: be a very good team for several years. They have 66 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: drafted well. They have very good players. They're not having 67 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: to pay yet. Linebackers, tight end, edge rushers, tackles. They've 68 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: got some dudes. And you know, for years and years, 69 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: you know, you never really trusted the ownership in the 70 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: front office. I really like the executive suite for the Lions. 71 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: I like their drafts. They've taken some swings players that 72 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: I watched a lot of in college. Amor On Saint 73 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: Brown is a much better pro than I thought he 74 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: would be. I watched every USC game of note that 75 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: he played in. He's a better pro than I thought 76 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: he would be. So I think Detroit's just a better team. 77 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: I think they exhibited it again tonight. I think you know, 78 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: they lost in over a time to Seattle, but they 79 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 1: beat Kansas City a narrowhead. They dominate the Packers at Lambeau. 80 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: It's a good football team and they got we're the 81 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: good players. So you know, they played hard under Dan 82 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: Campbell last year, but they were just missing a couple elements. 83 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: They've shored up to defense. They're not a great defense, 84 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: but they're a better defense. And I like what I see. 85 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: You know, I think Jordan loves fine to this point. 86 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: Nothing you see. He doesn't feel overwhelmed like Zach Wilson. 87 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: He's not regularly inaccurate like justin fields. There's nothing here 88 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: that would mortify me. 89 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: You know. 90 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: Some of this is just he needs snaps. He needs games. 91 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: He needs snaps. He's been uneven good half bad half 92 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: good half bad half. That's the sign of a young quarterback. 93 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: So you can sit on the bench for as long 94 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: as you want. Aaron Rodgers first year, he was six 95 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: and ten and then things even out. It's very rare 96 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 1: when a young quarterback Trevor Lawrence is a great talent. 97 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: He has bad halfs, bad quarters, bad games. So I 98 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: think if you're a Packer optimist, you have to like 99 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,119 Speaker 1: what you see with Jordan. You look at the first half, 100 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: the last two weeks is better teams. Saints are a 101 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: better team. They have a better defense than Green Bay. 102 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: I think the Lions have a better roster, all right, 103 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,799 Speaker 1: But I nothing I see with Jordan Love would would 104 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: deeply concern me. I'm looking for some it's some special 105 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: maybe that develops through confidence and wins. But I think 106 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: in house. I talked to Tyler Dunn, somebody who's covered 107 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: the Packers now on his own platform, used to work 108 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: for the Milwaukee Journal, and he said, in house, there's 109 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: a feeling that they're a little ahead of schedule. They 110 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: feel pretty good about it. Lions ran the ball well 111 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: better than the Packers did, more yards, more rushing yards. 112 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: That helped a lot. Again, Packers are a little beat up, 113 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: but you know it's it's I'm on a little bit 114 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: of a lucky streak here. So far in the NFC, 115 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: the teams I had making the playoffs Philadelphia, Dallas, Atlanta, Saints. 116 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: Only the Lions in the NFC North in Seattle and 117 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: San Francisco right now would make the playoffs. Seven for 118 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: seven AFC. I'm waiting on Joe Burrow's calf to heal, 119 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: and I don't know what's going on with the Jaguars. 120 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: I had them as a possible number one seed. They're 121 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: a mess. I do think they'll get healthy against Atlanta 122 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: this weekend overseas, but all in all, better team one. 123 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: It's nice to see the Lions win, you know. I mean, 124 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: like last year they were close, but you felt like, 125 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: you know what, they have to win one way, they 126 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: have to outscore people. Tonight they scored, but didn't necessarily 127 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: have to outscore people. I thought they had a couple 128 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: of calls go against them in the game. Then the 129 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: Packers had that weird call and special teams on the 130 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: field goal go against them. All evens out. But you know, 131 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: you go to bed tonight, you wake up tomorrow and 132 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: you think about Jordan Love, all right, we got something here, 133 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: We're okay, We're fine. Doesn't mean you don't draft a 134 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: quarterback in this draft. I wouldn't draft them in the 135 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: first round. The Packers don't have huge needs. I really 136 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: do like their tight ends and the receivers. I really 137 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: think Green Bay is well positioned. But this is the 138 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: youngest team in the NFL, so I think you have 139 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: to come in with you know, Jordan Loves, inexperienced, incredibly 140 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: young roster. You gotta temper your expectations this year. Right now, 141 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: Detroit's on like the second third year of this group. 142 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: I think they're ahead of Green Bay. I think this 143 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: team needs the age, and I think they'll age pretty well. 144 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: So I like the journey. I like watching Jordan Love. 145 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: It's fun. There's no indignity losing to a really good, 146 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: underrated quarterback in Jared Goff. I don't get it. You 147 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: can't tell me there's twelve guys in the NFL better 148 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: than Jared Goff. I don't believe it. I think he 149 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: throws one of the best balls in the league. They 150 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: have a great online Jared Goff's history is when he 151 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: has time to throw, he's good. He made some really, 152 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: really slick throws tonight. I like him, you know that 153 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 1: I always have. All Right, everybody, it's time for Sharper Square. 154 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: Chad Millman, the CEO of Action Network. All odds provided 155 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: by DraftKings. I went three one one on my blazing 156 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: five picks. Rams was a push, even though I thought 157 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: they outplayed the Bengals for the first two quarters maybe 158 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: two and a half. But that's the way gambling works. 159 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: All right. Let's start with some favorites. As you know, 160 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: I'm not a huge fan of favorites. I usually take 161 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 1: three to four underdogs. But I think it's interesting Miami 162 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: goes on the road again. They have struggled to stop 163 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen again and again. And here's what concerns me 164 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: is that Buffalo can create pressure bringing just four. That's 165 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: the way to slow down Miami New England. You don't 166 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: need sacks. You need to create a little chaos and pressure. 167 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: So I think Buffalo minus two and a half. It 168 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: is one of my favorite bets of the week. At 169 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: minus three, I still lean Buffalo. But teams that score seventy, 170 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: they feel themselves a little pull back, a little another 171 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: flight to the northeast. What say you, Sharper Squareshed. 172 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: Dude, it's like you are reading from the sharp script, 173 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: no joke. Everything you just said is why the wise 174 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 2: guys are on Buffalo at minus two and a half. 175 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 2: So a they tend to like a divisional game if 176 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 2: they can get the favorite under a field goal. So 177 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 2: there is a slight lean there. B What you said 178 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 2: about the pressure is key. Sean McDermott has had to 179 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 2: his number right. Tua has been incredibly good against every 180 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: other team, and he's been much less good against Sean McDermott. 181 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: And now Sean McDermott has what you just said, he 182 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: has film of what the Patriots did, and the Patriots 183 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 2: did a really good job against Tua. Now, look, they 184 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: have Christian Gonzalez who is turning into an A plus 185 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 2: draft pick and a dominant cover corner. But what they 186 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 2: basically did with that umbrella coverage was they did not 187 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: blitz very much. And if you talk about Buffalo, which 188 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 2: you just said as well, Buffalo has twelve sacks leading 189 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 2: the NFL, right, but they are the third lowest in 190 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 2: pressure from blitzing. So they are not doing it because 191 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 2: they are sending a lot of players. They are doing 192 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: it because their front four is getting to the quarterback. 193 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 2: And then look those are all the on the field stats. 194 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: Let's look at it from a betting point of view. 195 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: You want to fade the team that just scores seventy points. 196 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 2: There's not a lot of data about how teams that 197 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 2: score seventy points do against the spread the following week. 198 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: But I can tell you when a team scores seventy 199 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 2: generally you want to go against that team. There is 200 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: so much public sentiment for this team. And look, this 201 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 2: is a game that is kind of vexing the wise 202 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: guys a little bit. If you look at the data, 203 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: seventy percent of the money is on Buffalo. So when 204 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: you get money on one side, that generally means professional 205 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: betters like it. But the tickets are kind of split 206 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: fifty to fifty. And what's that saying is that people 207 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: aren't like the wise guys who might like Miami aren't 208 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 2: rushing in because they really don't know what to do 209 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 2: with this game. They don't know what to do with 210 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 2: his team Miami. One wise guy described them to me 211 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: as a little bit like the matrix full of cheat codes, 212 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 2: and so they're either betting Buffalo or they're passing. 213 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: My favorite bet of the week is Minnesota minus four 214 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: against Carolina at Carolina. Here's why Carolina has a problem. 215 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: There is nobody to throw to. Mingo may not be 216 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: a bust. He doesn't separate. He's a more talented Nikhil Harry. 217 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: He doesn't separate. Young quarterbacks need people who separate. That's 218 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: why actually CJ. Stroud's having a little success his low round, 219 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: mid round draft picks. They got some guys that can 220 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: play so Minnesota. Wouldn't you think of them differently if 221 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: that last pass was a touchdown and not tipped for 222 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: a pick. So they're a little undervalued fos the middle 223 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: of nowhere. Minnesota could have easily won that game, probably 224 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: should have. And Minnesota's got a veteran quarterback and elite weapon. 225 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: They're not running the football well, but they matched up 226 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: pretty well. I think against the Chargers a fairly stacked roster. 227 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna lay the four. I'm good with it. I 228 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: really like the Vikings minus four. 229 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 2: Sharper square kind of a eh like. There's no real 230 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 2: consensus on this game. It's not a game that folks 231 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: are pining to bet. You're not finding an advantage. It's, 232 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 2: as we like to say, as you and I like 233 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 2: to say, it's a corner TV game, right, someone's gonna 234 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 2: bet it so it'll be on in the sports book. 235 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: But the truth is there's no numbers edge, right and 236 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: the wise guys don't love Minnesota. They don't love the coaching, 237 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 2: they don't love the way they've been playing, they don't 238 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 2: love that defense at all. They don't like Carolina, they 239 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: don't like Bryce Young, they don't want to bet on 240 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 2: Andy Dalton. They agree with you about the weapons on 241 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 2: the edge. This game opened at three and a half. 242 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: It's been bet up to four. I would have felt 243 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: like if there was some kind of consensus, it would 244 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 2: have been on a home underdog and that Colin. That's 245 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: sort of the indicator, right, If you're ever looking for 246 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 2: signals about who you want to bet on or what 247 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: wise guys might like, if you see a home dog 248 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 2: and the number moves in the direction of the favorite, 249 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 2: then you know the wise guys are staying away from 250 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 2: it because wise guys tend to jump on home underdogs. 251 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: All right, you know I like underdogs. Let me give 252 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: you three that are tasty. Listen. Sam Hell was overwhelmed, 253 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: completely overwhelmed. Philadelphia is struggling offensively. It may just be 254 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: a Shane Stiken issue. They're not the same offense. They'll win. 255 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: The interior line play here, but the Washington d line 256 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: can play. When you get humiliated, I'll take the eight. 257 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: It's a division rival again. Young quarterbacks are hot and cold, 258 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: and I don't care if it's c J. Stroud Bryce Young. 259 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: Sam Hell was awful the week before. He is pretty interesting. 260 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: I think Sam Hell little course correct I'll take the 261 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: eight division rival short week for Philadelphia Sharper Square. 262 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 2: Totally sharp. The Wise guys actually are buyers on Sam Howe. 263 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: They were they were buyers last week on Sam Howell 264 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 2: when he went up against Buffalo. They've been really encouraged 265 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: by what they've seen and the way he's been able 266 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: to handle himself in the pocket. There were some throws 267 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: he had against the Broncos two weeks ago that made 268 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: them sort of stand up and take notice. 269 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: And Jos. 270 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 2: Great and he had a play where he stepped up 271 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 2: in the pocket hit Terry McLaurin deep when he was 272 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: double covered, and he put the ball in play and 273 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: gave him a chance to catch it. So the wise 274 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 2: guys have looked at Sam Howell and said, Okay, we 275 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: think he's better than maybe we were judging. And look 276 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: the Eagles. I bet I bet the Commanders at plus 277 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: eight and a half. The number actually moved down to eight, 278 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: it went back up to eight and a half. There 279 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 2: are some places where you can get it at better 280 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: than eight and a half right now. So I'm with 281 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 2: you on this game, and the wise guys are with 282 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: you on this game. I think there's one thing, uh, 283 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: It's why betters might want to wait and see where 284 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: they can get the best of the number. I think 285 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: the public is going to love Philadelphia. I think when 286 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 2: a team wins in a primetime game and they looked good, 287 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 2: and Eagles did look good in the second half, especially 288 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 2: like Jalen Hurts has started to figure it out with 289 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 2: his new offensive coordinator. There's gonna be a huge public 290 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: backing of the Eagles in this game. But I don't 291 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: like that in huge favorites in a divisional game. So 292 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 2: I'm with you on the Commanders, and so are thewise guys. 293 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: So all the odds are provided by draft kings. I 294 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: swear I saw the Patriots getting seven. Maybe I'm wrong. 295 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: It's now six and a half. I still like it. 296 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: This feels ugly and low scoring. The best corner in 297 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: this game three weeks ago was Trayvon Diggs. Now it's 298 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: Christian Gonzalez. The best pass rusher is still Micah, but 299 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: Judon's having another great year. The best coach, Let's not 300 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: get into it. It's an obvious slam dunk coaching edge, 301 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: and I really I believe this. I think New England's 302 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: actually a pretty good team. I don't think they're explosive. 303 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: I think they missed what we all see a number 304 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: one receiver. But Jude ju Kendrick Bourne, DeVante Parker running 305 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: game with great coaching. I'm taking the six and a half. 306 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: This feels like twenty seventeen, twenty three, twenty That's what 307 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: it feels like to me. Sharper Square. 308 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 2: Look, the wise guys have bet the Patriots. That's why 309 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 2: it moved from seven down to six and a half. 310 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 2: I think at six and a half you're kind of 311 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: playing with fire right because this is a game where 312 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 2: it could easily end up as a touchdown, and at 313 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: least at seven it's a key number. You're getting a push. 314 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 2: The debate that's going on about this Patriots team is fascinating, 315 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 2: and you know, you're always trying to drive a wedge 316 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 2: between me and my bff and co host Simon Hunter 317 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: on the favorites. But this has been a game that 318 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 2: we had a fierce debate about today. I actually think 319 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 2: this is a huge get right spot for the Cowboys. 320 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,719 Speaker 2: Their red zone against Arizona was terrible. This is an 321 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 2: opportunity for them to come back and fix it. Dak 322 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 2: in these spots as a favorite at home as a 323 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: bigger favorite has performed well. The problem is everything you 324 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: said about the Patriots is true, and it's why the way 325 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: guys have bet the Patriots down to six and a half. 326 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 2: Mac Jones might be terrible, and we can say all 327 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 2: we want about he played in a monsoon, or he's 328 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 2: played really good defenses. He has had plenty of opportunities 329 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 2: to put the Patriots in good positions with one key 330 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 2: throw that were available, and you didn't do it. So 331 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 2: it's a very good chance that he's just not very good. 332 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: And you're betting on a guy who's not very good 333 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: on the road against a team that could have a 334 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: really dynamic offense. So not my favorite that I'm gonna 335 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 2: say that, right. 336 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: I have kind of a belief now that once the 337 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: once the schedule was extended to seventeen games, people were 338 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 1: playing starters in the preseason even less, and so Week 339 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: one is absurdly unpredictable. The Bills were bad, the Jets 340 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: look good. That's not truth. Take out Week one for Seattle, 341 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: where they had no idea what McVeigh was doing with 342 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: a new offense. They go to Detroit and beat the Lions, 343 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: the Hammer Carolina and now they get points at New York, 344 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: and New York's kind of beat up. I think they're 345 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 1: the better team. I think the Rams nobody had a 346 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: clue what offense they were gonna run. Element of surprise 347 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: what they dominated that game. Since then, Seattle's pretty good. 348 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: Seattle's a good football team that I picked against the 349 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: playoffs that made the playoffs last year. Their young players 350 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: are better. I'm gonna take the points with Seattle. 351 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: Sharper square an interesting choice. It's a sharp play, but 352 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 2: not like, oh my god, I'm seeing so much value. 353 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: It's a sharp play because it's a short number. Is 354 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 2: what you just said about the Giants, like they're kind 355 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: of beat up. There could be regression there. Seattle, actually, 356 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 2: like you just said, has played better in the following weeks, 357 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 2: and I think for some reason, there's sort of a 358 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 2: hangover with Gino. When he doesn't play well, people tend 359 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 2: to think, oh, Gino's terrible, Whereas if he bounces back, 360 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: he doesn't get the benefit of the doubt the way 361 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: other quarterbacks would. Right right now, Trevor Lawrence has looked terrible. 362 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: If Trevor Lawrence plays great this weekend in London, everyone's 363 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: gonna be like, oh he's back. No one's going to think, oh, 364 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence is still bad. He just had one good game. 365 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 2: But everyone thinks that about Geno until he has six 366 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: straight games that are really good. So I can't disagree 367 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 2: with you on this, but definitely not one of my favorites. 368 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: Okay, so then we play the game. Oh I have 369 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: one more before we play the game. Let's hear it. 370 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: So Cleveland minus two and a half at home against Baltimore. 371 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: I think Cleveland has the best defense in the league. 372 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: Baltimore's left tackle may play not one hundred percent, same 373 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: with their center. This is Baltimore. They're beat up in 374 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: division game. I usually take points. I don't think we 375 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: like Cleveland because of their quarterback and their history. This 376 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: defense is Niners, it's Steelers, It's insane. Baltimore remains some 377 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: new perimeter weapons, new coordinators, still figuring themselves out, still 378 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: players coming back on one hundred percent. I'd swallow the 379 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: two and a half. I'll take Cleveland minus two and 380 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: a half. 381 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: Sharper square totally sharp, but it has to be two 382 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: and a half. At three, nobody's buying, But at two 383 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 2: and a half, everyone's buying from a professional perspective, what 384 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 2: you're saying, like, this defense is just it's sick, like 385 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 2: all the film breakdown you can do. You've probably had 386 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 2: Cosela on to talk about this, like Miles Garrett is 387 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 2: playing at a defensive Player of the Year level. From 388 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 2: the front four to the back line, they are just 389 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 2: stacked and playing incredibly well. Look, I think they've had 390 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 2: there have been thirty something possessions against the Browns. There's 391 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: been one trip to the red zone against them, Like 392 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 2: the Steelers, they didn't get into the red zone. It 393 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 2: was all defensive touchdowns. Like, this defense is insane. And 394 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: Jim Schwartz might have who has had had great careers, 395 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 2: the defensive coordinator might have the best level of talent 396 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 2: that matches his philosophy that he's ever had. I agree 397 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 2: with everything you said about Baltimore. What's tricky about Baltimore 398 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 2: And this is one of those things again. Are you 399 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: betting what you're seeing on the field? Are you betting 400 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 2: what history has told you. Lamar Jackson is a favorite, terrible. 401 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 2: We saw it against the Colts last weekend. Lamar Jackson 402 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 2: as an underdog, almost unbeatable. John Harbaugh as an underdog, 403 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: one of the best coaches in the past twenty years, 404 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: A road division underdog at three, you kind of got 405 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 2: a pass, or take the dog at two and a half. 406 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: You're going to take the favorite. 407 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: All right, Now, we play the game. I give you 408 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: a game that I want to be talked into, and 409 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: then a game that I totally missed Los Angeles Rams, 410 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: element of surprise game that look great. Since then the 411 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: offense is okay. Another road game. Indianapolis gets Anthony Richardson back, 412 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: Shane Steikin's excellent. Their D and O line combos actually 413 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: pretty good. I think Indy is going to be a 414 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: roller coaster team. But Anthony Richardson actually is a young quarterback, 415 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: takes some time off, watches the game, extra time to 416 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: prep with a great OC. I think I would take 417 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: Indianapolis minus one and a half the Rams. Another road trip, 418 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: short week, go home, come back. Think I would take 419 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: Indy here Sharper square. 420 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 2: I think you want to rethink that you're gonna want 421 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 2: to take the Rams. That's the sharp side. It's actually 422 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 2: a big, big favorite of the wise guys this week. 423 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 2: They're all buyers on Matthew Stafford. He's actually having a 424 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 2: really good year. And if you look at that game 425 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 2: against the Bengals, there's a couple of plays that stand 426 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 2: out that win against them. You know, we've talked about 427 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 2: this on the show. We do this thing at Action 428 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 2: Network called the Luck Rankings, which basically takes all of 429 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 2: the unpredictable plays and puts them in a formula with 430 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 2: the predictable plays and tells you, if everything was even, 431 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 2: what should the score of that game been and the 432 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 2: Rams would have won that game. And the biggest differential 433 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: between teams that have gotten lucky this far in the 434 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 2: season and the teams that have gotten unlucky this far 435 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 2: in the season is between the Rams and the Colts 436 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: in this game. So to me, if I just see that, 437 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,199 Speaker 2: I'm automatically going to play the Rams. But the numbers 438 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 2: also stack up to Stafford is a better quarterback. This 439 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 2: Rams defense is playing better than people expect. Anthony Richardson 440 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: huge fan like it's Bijon, it's Anthony Richardson, and IT'SHJ. 441 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: Shroud if you're talking about offensive rookie of the Year. 442 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: But again, it'll be his first game back after a concussion. 443 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: It's not like he's whipping the ball downfield. It's sixty 444 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 2: yards per attempt, right, so he's not blowing it up. 445 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 2: I think he's a really good player. But I think 446 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: the Rams as short dogs is the play here. 447 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: Well, that's why I call the game to talk me 448 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: into all right, what did I miss? What's a sometimes 449 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: an ugly one? I did think about Jacksonville. My guess 450 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 1: I thought Jacksonville's the side against that lamb. That's what 451 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: it felt. That's one of the ones I didn't put in, 452 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: but I thought that's an ugly one. My guess is 453 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: Jacksonville overseas, there's a little pressure on them and they're 454 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: not really up for it. I almost love them playing 455 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: overseas and like, you know what, we're going to get 456 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: out of this country, go do what we do, and 457 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: we got really good players. Am I right? Am I 458 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: guessing right here? 459 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 2: No? No, you're totally right. Like Jacksonville is the side. 460 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 2: It's the side the wise guys, like it's sitting there 461 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 2: at minus three. But yeah, you know, there's a lot 462 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,959 Speaker 2: of history to tell you that in these London games 463 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 2: you want to take the favorites. There's a lot in 464 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 2: the field to tell you that you want to take 465 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 2: the jags here Look, I think in the first two games, 466 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,120 Speaker 2: Atlanta surprised a lot of people and made people think 467 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 2: twice because they were able to come back, they were 468 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: able to maintain. And then what you saw last week 469 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 2: against Detroit, where a lot of wise guys were on 470 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 2: the Falcons, Desmond Ritter just was terrible. And so without 471 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,439 Speaker 2: a quarterback, this is a gain right spot for Trevor 472 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: Lawrence and the Jags. So the wise guys are going 473 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 2: to be playing Jacksonville. But I will give you a 474 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: game that we didn't discuss. Okay, I'm a little surprised 475 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 2: you didn't bring it up, because this is a perfect 476 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 2: spot for you. The Cincinnati Bengals on the road at 477 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans. Tennessee Titans opened at plus two and 478 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: a half. It's gone back and forth. It went down 479 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 2: to two because the wise guys like the Titans. Then 480 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 2: the public is coming in on the Bengals because they 481 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 2: just won in prime time. Look, you've got a team 482 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 2: whose value is deflated because they just got demolished by 483 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 2: potentially in historically great defense in the Browns. Right, So 484 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 2: that's the Titans, and then a team in the Bengals 485 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 2: that beat the Rams. The number on that game had 486 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 2: swung wildly. The Rams opened to six and a half 487 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,719 Speaker 2: point Dogs, got that down all the way to two 488 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 2: and a half point Dogs because of the Borough news 489 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 2: Borough plays. He doesn't look great, but he wins. Jamar 490 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: Chase has a breakout game. It's a prime time game. 491 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: You're automatically going to have the public come in on 492 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 2: that team. Yeah, right, And so all of a sudden, 493 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 2: you've got a team that the public loves on the 494 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 2: road against a Tennessee team that is one of the 495 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 2: best coach teams in the NFL. They've got a really 496 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:24,479 Speaker 2: good defensive line, they've got a really smart quarterback. As 497 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: much as people don't want to say they like Ryan Tannehill, 498 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 2: he plays well when he's put in a position to succeed. 499 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 2: He doesn't make the mistakes. And Mike Frabel is a 500 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 2: super star as an underdog. Colin, there is one coach 501 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 2: the past twenty years who is over five hundred straight 502 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 2: up as an underdog, not covering the spread. I mean 503 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: straight up he wins as an underdog. It's Mike Rabel. 504 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 2: He's the most profitable coach against the spread as an 505 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 2: underdog the past twenty years. 506 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't pick that game because for the 507 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: first time this year, Burrow is playing without a calf restraint, 508 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: like he's now playing, he's practicing, he's back, and I 509 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: don't I don't like betting against Joe when he's back 510 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: and they have to win this game. That was That 511 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: was That was a game that Jay Mac and I 512 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: had discussed off air this week, and I'm like, I now, 513 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 1: Burrow's not wearing any calf restraints. He's one hundred percent healthy. 514 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, I thought he played better in 515 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: the second half against the Rams, calf loosened up a 516 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: little bit. I'm like, end of that game, it was like, 517 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: is pretty interesting. All right, that's an interesting one. So 518 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 519 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: I betting means doing bad things, Colin, Sometimes you got 520 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 2: to do things. 521 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: That's listen. I like Minnesota minus four a lot. You 522 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: think it's a nothing burger. I like it a lot. 523 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: I think Minnesota had that tip pass on in their favor. 524 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: We would think of them differently. It's a play. It's 525 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: one play and beat up. What do they have? 526 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 2: They have the h one of the leading passers in 527 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 2: the NFL, one of the leading receivers in the NFL. 528 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 2: And yet they could very much go down as one 529 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 2: of those teams like the Jeff George lad Atlanta Falcons 530 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: with Andre Risen right where they run up these huge, 531 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 2: huge numbers. They never scare anybody. Nobody cares about them 532 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 2: because it's just it's a sugar rush. It's empty calories. 533 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: You want to do something scary, Colin, You want to 534 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 2: know the number that was just moving today. It's been 535 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 2: sitting for say five days since Sunday, and today the 536 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 2: wise guy started pounding it. Are you ready? Are you ready? 537 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 2: I am New York Jets home underdogs against the Kansas 538 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 2: City Chiefs. Tell you right now, I'll tell you right now. 539 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: I bet this at the Jets plus ten. It had 540 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 2: been in nine and a half for most of the week. 541 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: It bumped up to ten. Yesterday I grabbed it went 542 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: back down to nine and a half. I'm not saying 543 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 2: I moved the number back. I'm just saying after I 544 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 2: grabbed the ten, it went down to nine and a half. 545 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: Uh And today it's been been steaming in the Jets 546 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 2: direction below nine. So you want to talk about a 547 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: game the wise guys are on. It's the New York 548 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 2: Jets can't do it. 549 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: I can not do it.
