That means we're gonna have a 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: great week. 10 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: Oh my god. I was legitimately thinking the same thing. 11 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: I felt pretty good about the last couple of weeks, 12 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: and we have just kind of been treading water and 13 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: a little bit under treading water where we need to go, 14 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: and now I feel terrible about it. So I'm ready 15 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: to just go. 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: Fine O. 17 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: All right, let's do our usual PSAs before we recap 18 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: last week, can get into this week's games discord? Of course, 19 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm Matt on how many we're like pushing a thousand. 20 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 2: At this point one thousand. We're about nine to fifty 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: right now for people who are on it. I mean 22 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 2: during football games, we're approaching you know, two fifty three 23 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 2: hundred people at a time that are on it. It's 24 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: really cool because I figured out a feature that when 25 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 2: I play prop bets, there's an at everyone features and 26 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 2: I can send it out to everyone so everyone sees 27 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: the ads that they make, which I found that to 28 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 2: be incredibly cool last night. 29 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: So I'm aware because I've seen them them up and 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: I've been like, wait, what's going on. Is Matt trying 31 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: to talk to me? 32 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: Oh? 33 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: No, He's just telling everyone in our Discord channel that 34 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: he's got a prop bet, which is great. I actually 35 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: that's a great idea because as you know, sometimes I'm 36 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: the worst person ever.

First, the three cap. 53 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: Last weeks, once again we have gone three and two. 54 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: We went three and two for like six weeks straight. 55 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: Now we're two and three and back to back weeks. 56 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: I believe we are now twenty what is it, twenty 57 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: three and twenty two. I believe overall we're one game up, 58 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: whatever it is. Fifty one point one percent hit on 59 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: the Ravens lank two and a half to the Culture, 60 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: which is a game that I liked that we switched 61 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: in thankfully for the Chiefs game that we had settled 62 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: on last week. And we also liked the Saints getting 63 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: four and a half from the Bucks, which we hit on, 64 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,679 Speaker 1: but we missed on the Seahawks getting two and a 65 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: half from the Bills. The Bills are like, you know, 66 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: our kryptonite or Matts kryptonite, that's for sure. 67 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: The court trill, who I made good money on the 68 00:02:58,560 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 2: bills betting its bills this year. 69 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: That's fair, that's fair, I bet. I just mean you 70 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: hate them. I bet cards, the cards laying four and 71 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: a half to the Dolphins and the pass lank seven 72 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: a half to the Jet's goodness, gracious, we're not even 73 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: gonna talk about that Monday night game. So wait, three 74 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: eighty fourth out of six eighty nine. We've got ways 75 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: to go, but not in any way out of it 76 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: at all. At this point. We've got plenty of time 77 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: to catch up, but we've got to get going now. 78 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: So it's gonna take a big week or two or three. 79 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: So let's get started right now with a week that 80 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,119 Speaker 1: I hate, which you hate, which we're gonna go five 81 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: and oh so start us off. What's your number one pick? 82 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: All right? So I'm going to I went through and 83 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 2: I tried to kind of game theory based upon the 84 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: numbers for DraftKings. Okay, and so I have been getting 85 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: caught because now that I'm in the West Gate and 86 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: I'm in the DraftKings and I'm in the Circa, these 87 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: numbers matter right at this point in the year, there's 88 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: enough algorithms, there's enough information out there where the lines 89 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: can be very very sharp. This is where it gets 90 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: very difficult. This is when the public loses their sh 91 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: shirt from this week, Week ten on the NFL's very hard. 92 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 2: So when there's line discrepancies, I'm gonna be those are 93 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: going to raise red flags to me. So the bucks 94 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: are four and a half in our contest, yep, they 95 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 2: are five and a half six in climbing as we 96 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: roll here. I'm not saying it's a bad idea if 97 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: you get to seven or six and a half to 98 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: take the Panthers here plus the points. But in our 99 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 2: contest it's four and a half. It's below my hated five. 100 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: It's a bounce back spot. And I believe the Panthers 101 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: decided that they wanted to beat the Chiefs so badly 102 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: that they would go and do anything to have the 103 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 2: scalp that they could run around and say, Matt rule 104 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 2: a year one beat the defending champs on the road 105 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: because Christian McCaffrey should have been on a pitch count 106 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 2: last week. He wasn't. They forced in the ball so 107 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 2: much that they got him hurt. So now that after 108 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: changing their offense to fit in McCaffrey, they got to 109 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: go back to having him not be there. I know 110 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: that Bridgewater is a cover machine, but that pathetic effort 111 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: by the They're gonna turn things around this week. I 112 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: like the Bucks even on the road to lay it 113 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: down on the Panthers. I'm gonna lay the four and 114 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: a half tampamize four and a half. 115 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: Far and away, my number one pick, Far and away, 116 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: like maybe the only game that I really was like, yep, 117 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: this is one I absolutely want. I mean, if I'm 118 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: if I'm poking a hole in it. It's just that 119 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater covers. Teddy Bridgewater is the cover machine. It 120 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: is what he does. But it just doesn't matter to me. 121 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: You buying low on the Bucks after that embarrassing performance. 122 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady off a loss he usually covers. As you 123 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: mentioned about McCaffrey, he's out for this game. It's gonna 124 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: be Mike Davis, who again it played really well for 125 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: several games, but then he wore down. He played kind 126 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: of poorly the last three games. So that this is 127 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: this is no brainer to me, absolutely at four and 128 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: a half. And you're right that the spread is rising 129 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: and that that that's a great point, Matt. When do 130 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: the lines lock at the Circa and and the. 131 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 2: Other one when they come out, I mean basically either 132 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 2: Wednesday or third day. It's on COVID problems. So if 133 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 2: big COVID issues Circa and Westgate can they can hold 134 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: on to it. Sometimes I find out exactly who's playing, 135 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: but mostly it's Wednesday or Wednesday afternoon Thursday, same time 136 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: as the DraftKings. There's just different. There's discrepancies in the 137 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 2: numbers that are quite glaring. Like in the circle of 138 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: this it's five and a half, so it's four and 139 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: a half. We're getting extra point here. 140 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no brainer. On our bed analyzer, it's this 141 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: spread right now is the consensus sign is minus six, 142 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: and it's still overwhelmingly on the bucks. 143 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 2: I think seven. You may talk me into the Panthers, 144 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 2: but four and a half I'm taking tap. 145 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, four and a half without that, Okay, So maybe 146 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: we will agree. I'm coming in here, Matt, and I'm 147 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: expecting us not to really agree on all of these 148 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: just because it's so ugly, but you might given the 149 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: way your preface to this entire week, which is where 150 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: the public's gonna lose their shirt. Maybe you won't hate 151 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: all of these. I really don't know. Let me see 152 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: which one I wanted to start with here. Okay, I'll 153 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: get one which think you'll like, but we'll see about it. 154 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers getting nine and a half from 155 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: the Saints. So here here's number one. I think the 156 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: Saints are going to be a very public play, if 157 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: for no other reason, then of course, the very classic. 158 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: They absolutely destroyed the Bucks and the forty nine Ers 159 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: look like perhaps the worst team in football on Thursday night. Now, 160 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: I realize you don't have Jimmy Garoppolo. I realize you 161 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: don't have George Kittle, But Kyle Shannan is a fantastic coach. 162 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: He is going to figure out a way to improve 163 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: the offense. You're gonna get at least Brandon aiyuk back. 164 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: Sounds like maybe Deebo Samuel will need another week. The 165 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: running backs are gonna need another week? Which are I mean? 166 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: Kiinnon is fine if it gets to work. I think 167 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: Kendrick Bourne, who's currently on the COVID list, is probably 168 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: gonna be able to come off. And again, this just 169 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: strikes me as a very huge overreaction to what happened 170 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: last week, so I'd love it if it were a ten. 171 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: Spreads actually down to nine in our consensus lines, and 172 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: the people in our bed on liies are leaning towards 173 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: the Saints. But it's ugly, But I like forty nine 174 00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: ers getting nine and a half. Here. 175 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 2: You could pick all the boards one game, but this 176 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: is the game you're choosing. 177 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's correct, right. 178 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 2: You want to bet on a backup quarterback, back up, 179 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: running back, back up, backup, offensive line, backup, backup, defensive line, backup, secondary, 180 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: and this is the pick against a team that just 181 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: whipped and looked amazing against the Bucks. 182 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: Oh do so? I'm sorry, Just to be clear, are 183 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: we supposed to be like wow, that team just absolutely 184 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: destroyed the Bucks after, by the way, nearly losing to 185 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: the Bears the Bears, Like, let I'm not overreacting to 186 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: a week. This is what I said. I knew you 187 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: were going to hate this pack. I almost I tell 188 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: you said the public, I'm going to be the most 189 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: will the best line. 190 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 2: I'm willing. I'm willing to listen to it. 191 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: Go ahead. 192 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: Okay, I wouldn't listen to it and put it in 193 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: the maybe category. I'm just saying, of all that you 194 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: have the board to play with the board. 195 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: This is how every pick is ugly, Matt, every pick 196 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: is ugly this week. But yes, let me tell you, 197 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: what do you think the public split is going to 198 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: be on this game? What do you think the public well, 199 00:08:58,320 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: how much. 200 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: I think it'll get to ten and then I mean, 201 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 2: I think it just depends on how high the line 202 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 2: will go. I think if we get over eleven or twelve, 203 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: I think you'll see buy back. 204 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: But I think you're gonna see by I think I 205 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: think what you're gonna see. And I could be wrong. 206 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: And you, you, frankly, you, because you've been out there 207 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: so much, you have so much great insight, you understand 208 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: it more. I think there's gonna be a ton of 209 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: public play on the Saints this week, and I don't 210 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: think that line's well. 211 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 2: I think on the East Coast. You gotta remember that 212 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 2: in Vegas we have a lot of California people, So 213 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: that tend that tends to keep the California team's lines 214 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: to be a little bit in check. Yep, because if 215 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 2: you go double digits, just people here in Vegas are 216 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 2: smart enough and they're from California. A lot of them. 217 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: They're going, you know what, the Niners are gonna keep 218 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: the game close. But my problem is they're gonna have 219 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: to run the football, and I think that's the one 220 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: thing the Saints actually do a good job of stopping. 221 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: They do so they do they do. I agree, but 222 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna give this team off a nationally 223 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: televised just absolute chi lacking where they didn't have any man. 224 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: I do fantasy football for a living and I barely 225 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: I could pick Richie James out of a lineup who 226 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: had one hundred and seventy yards right and the TOUCHDOWN'M like, 227 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: that's what they were looking at. I uk is a 228 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: huge get to have back, as is I expect Kendrick Bourne, 229 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: who I know people look here, but it's fine. Look, 230 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: there was one game this week that I was going 231 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: to push and it was the Bucks. That's the only 232 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: one I was going to basically lie in the mat for. 233 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: There are no other games. So trust me. The fact 234 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: that I chose this game next, it was only because 235 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: I was like, with this, maybe fits into Matt's narrative, 236 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: maybe he'll go for it, So go ahead to your 237 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: next one. 238 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: Just it's just ugly, Okay, so my next one is 239 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 2: a number that I would prefer to go down to three, 240 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: But it's three and a half for our contest, and 241 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: I don't I don't hate it at three and a half. Again, 242 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: I would preferred to three. But I think the Houston 243 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 2: Texans are done. And I think if you look at 244 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 2: the weather, okay, so this is what it's gonna be bad, 245 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: windy again, nasty and cold, okay, which is not Houston 246 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: Texans weather. Ye not. You can't fill the ball deep again, Okay. 247 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: So the same logic that we took this took the 248 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: Raiders to beat the Browns is the same logic. I'm 249 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: taking the Browns to win here because you're gonna get 250 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb back, looks like. So you have two running 251 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: backs that are decent, and I don't think David Johnson's 252 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 2: questionable for this game for the Texans, I don't think 253 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 2: they can run the football all that well, I don't. 254 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Deshaun Watson might be their best running back 255 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: in this game. 256 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: I just think give Duke Johnson some credit. Matt Duke 257 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Johnson is fine, okay, perfectly. 258 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 2: He's not gonna beat the brown by himself on the road, Okay, 259 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 2: three out of that rather the three. But Cleveland minus 260 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: three and a half, I think from a pick play 261 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'll bet it. I might bet it, 262 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 2: But from a pick play perspective, I like Cleveland to 263 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: cover that three and a half point line. 264 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm on the other side. I'm on the other side. 265 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 2: Wow, I'm not gonna be The Texans play a two 266 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 2: and six football team. 267 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: Explain this to me, Okay, we like I mean, DVOA 268 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: is not the be all and all right of teams, 269 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: of course, but it's Aguell. The Texans are a better 270 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: team by DVOA than the Browns. I don't think the 271 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: Browns are really that good of a football team here, Matt, 272 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: especially when you're without Odell Beckham junior. Now, I get 273 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: they're gonna get Chubb back, They're gonna be able to 274 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: run the ball. Absolutely, But again, if this were. 275 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 2: You believe in DVOA, then then you know that the 276 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: rushing defense for the Texans is one of the worst 277 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: in the whole. 278 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: Fact that the Browns can run on anybody. But I 279 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: agree they're gonna run the Raiders. 280 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: That's why I put the Raiders. They couldn't run on 281 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: the Raiders. 282 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: All right, that's fair. But with Chubb, who I do 283 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: expect to be back here, they're gonna be able to 284 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: run with him and hunt. No Beckham, I think is 285 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: a bigger loss than kind of weird, fully. 286 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 2: Right, But in this weather condition, he wouldn't be a 287 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: factor anyway. 288 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I I first of all, as far as I 289 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: can tell, Matt, and you tell me what's the exact forecast, 290 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: because this is. 291 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: Not wins okay, which is the biggest issue of anything 292 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: when it comes to Yeah, it's gonna be cold, it's 293 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: gonna be windy, it's gonna be like the same weather 294 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 2: conditions as the last time the rate we talked about 295 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 2: the Browns with the Raiders, and we were all over 296 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 2: the Raiders and we won that game out right, sixteen 297 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 2: to six. So I think the under is in play 298 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 2: in this game major But and I think with the 299 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: under in play, that favors the Browns. 300 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just don't. I don't know, man. And you 301 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: know what's funny. You know what's funny, Matt, And it's 302 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: if people listening to this, I don't know if they 303 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: listen to our fantasy podcast. We did a DFS show 304 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: today with Chris Rabahn of the Action Network. Do you know, Chris, Yeah, 305 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: of course this is great. Legitimately, Matt, this was both 306 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: of our like one of our better picks on the board. 307 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: It randomly came up because we were talking about fantasy 308 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: and he was like, I like the Texans getting three 309 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: and a half. And I was like, yes, I'm gonna 310 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: use this when I talk about it with Matt Barral 311 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,079 Speaker 1: on our show today. The fact that Chris also likes 312 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: them against them, I don't know, man. I think this 313 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: is just gonna be a close game. I agree that 314 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: the wind is gonna be bad. Deshaun Watson, though, can 315 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: run certainly. And I also I think Duke Johnson is 316 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: just as good as David Johnson at this point in 317 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: his career. I realized that he's never been given the 318 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: rock to sort of do what he can do. But 319 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: I do not I do not view this as a downgrad. 320 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: I think they can jump off the ball a lot. 321 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: I think you're, you know, maybe, yeah, it's gonna hamper 322 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: the constant deep shots, but you know, the Browns can't 323 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: stop the pass, you know, between Will Fuller and Brandon Cooks. 324 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: I just view this as a very close game. If 325 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: it was under a field goal, I might go for it, 326 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: but with the hook. No, don't like it. I don't 327 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: like it. So we're off. We're off. This is an 328 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: ugly week, we know. Oh boy, you're gonna hate this one. Ready, 329 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: let's got your first one. 330 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: I might read hit your second one. 331 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: I had to think about it, Matt. My other one 332 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: that I was going to bring up instead of my 333 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: first one was the Texans getting three and four. So 334 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: you you see where we're all them. Let's actually see 335 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: where a bed analyzer has this one. I just want 336 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: to know exactly where it is because it strikes me. Oh, 337 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: it is basically split. It's basically split at three and 338 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: a half. It's fifty six percent in favor of Houston. 339 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: I am one of that fifty six percent because I've 340 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: already put in my picker. Okay, you know what really 341 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: feels like a great idea this week? Matt betting a 342 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: team that doesn't know how to win and cannot win 343 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: a single game no matter what they do against the 344 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: team that's riding super super high after two giant wins. 345 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 2: And that is the charge where you're taking the charges 346 00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 2: of the road to get the charger. 347 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: There is no, two and a half. There is no 348 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: way from the Dolphins. 349 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 2: That it's not even worth having having this conversation right now. 350 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 2: This is such a big problem for the Chargers when 351 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: it comes to going on the road on the East Coast. 352 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: And you could say, well, it's Anthony Lynn getting away 353 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: from the public, getting away from the media, and they 354 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: might be able to go and win a game like this, 355 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 2: But against that defense, I forget too, But forget against 356 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: that defense. Uh uh, that's a scary that's a scary game. 357 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 2: To go ahead. I love the Herbert you know, he 358 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 2: wants to prove his draft pick against tu a Angle. 359 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: I love all that. But that defense for the Dolphins 360 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: is legitimate. 361 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: The defense for the Dolphins is good. The defense for 362 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: the Dolphins is good, I agree, and you know, because 363 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: they're basically scoring defensive touch on stuff like that. But 364 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: they're not. I mean, first of all, Arizona should have 365 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: won that game, you know, for many reasons, but they 366 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: outgained them significantly in yardage. I think the Dolphins have 367 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: defense scores. 368 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: When you when you get a defensive score and back 369 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 2: to back weeks, you win most weeks like that's okay, 370 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 2: that's huge. 371 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: Time are you are you thinking on a defensive score 372 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: in the game. 373 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 2: Maybe it I'm just saying it's possible. That's what. That's 374 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 2: why I'm scared of the game, because it's like, oh, 375 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: I mean Herbert gets hit a lot. I mean he's 376 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: under pressure. I think the number. I think he's like 377 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: number three in the NFL right now in terms of 378 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: passing under pressure. I mean, the dude is great, but 379 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: he gets pressure because his offensive line doesn't block anybody. 380 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I understand. We to look without Preston Williams. Okay, 381 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: they've got DeVante Parker. I mean, Toua looked good to 382 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: be To be fair, he looked good. They rolled him 383 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: out of the pocket, they let him use his legs 384 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: a little bit. That was good. I just don't think. 385 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean, they have no running backs. I don't know 386 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: which one of their fifty, you know, guy off the 387 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: street running backs is gonna be running the ball. I 388 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: just don't trust them to be able to put up 389 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: a ton of points. And look, I'm not gonna I'm 390 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: not gonna stand up there again. 391 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 2: One. Dolphins are on my list, by the way, I 392 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: have Dolphins myst two and a half on my line. 393 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: Right Well, where we're off to a rocky start and 394 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: go to your next go to your next one. Hopefully 395 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: we find some games that were at least on the 396 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: same side. 397 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: Of Okay, I don't like this number, but I'm gonna 398 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 2: play it anyway. But because I think there's a chance 399 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 2: they win the game outright, Big Ben's on schedule to 400 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 2: play for the Pittsburgh Steelers. That's great news for me. 401 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 2: I like the Bengals plus six and a half to 402 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,719 Speaker 2: potentially win this game outright. I think this is an 403 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: interesting matchup with the Bengals match up better. 404 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: And it's good news for you that Ben is gonna play. 405 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: Yes, Ben Roethlisberger is not playing well at all. His 406 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 2: number rat. 407 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: You think it's better for the Bengals if Ben plays 408 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: than Mason Rudolph. 409 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I think in terms of the way that 410 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 2: they'll approach the game, I think without with Rudolph, they'll 411 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: be more conservative, they'll run the football more, the defense 412 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 2: will know they have to play better. I just think 413 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 2: that this is a chance here for this. I think 414 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 2: they could win the game outright, but if not, they'll 415 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 2: keep the game close. I would prefer seven, but I'll 416 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 2: take the six and a half points and I'll take 417 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 2: the Bengals all right. 418 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: So I guess what I will say is, I don't 419 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: despise this pick, like I'm not gonna I'm gonna put 420 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: on the maybe list for sure, and especially given where 421 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: we are, it's probably getting in there. I would agree 422 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: that I would prefer it at seven. I do like 423 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: faiting the Steelers because I don't think that the Steelers 424 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: are nearly as good as you know what they've shown now, 425 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: especially without Devin Bush. I don't think the defense like it. 426 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: Although are they gonna have Williamson from the Jets. If 427 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: he is, he's gonna help the defense. But yep, doesn't 428 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: matter to you if Mixing plays here, because it sounds 429 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: like maybe he won't even off. 430 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 2: The doesn't because I'm betting on Joe Burrow. 431 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I mean it's I would like it at seven. 432 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: I'd like it at seven, but I think I'm on 433 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: the right side. 434 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: I think that it's seven and every of the contest. 435 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,239 Speaker 2: That's why I pissed me off. I got back. I 436 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 2: was like, it's seven in both the Circa and in 437 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 2: the Westgates seven, six and a half an hours. I'm 438 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna take it anyway, But I really I 439 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: don't like the six and a half with seven defense. 440 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 2: It would be it was seven, it would be my 441 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 2: number one plack pick. 442 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah. This strikes me as as the 443 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: Bengals finding a way to cover at the end of 444 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: the game. I don't think they're gonna do Yeah, yeah, 445 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: all right, I'll put in the maybe. But given where 446 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: we are the most likely, yes, because I do think 447 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: that's the right side at fifty eight percent. By the way, 448 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: people on the Bengals and our bet analyzer for the Dolphins, 449 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: by the way, since I didn't say it sixty are 450 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: on the wrong side. And on the Dolphins, I'll just 451 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: get all right, let's keep getting ugly, then, Matt, Let's 452 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: get really ugly. This is actually an interesting one because 453 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 1: you make a lot of money off the Bills. How 454 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: do you feel about the Cardinals laying the two and 455 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: a half to the Bills. 456 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 2: I think it's the right side. I'm just petrified of it. 457 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 2: You know, I don't like Josh Allen. I had a 458 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: long I had a long conversation with somebody from Pro 459 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 2: Football Focus on my radio show today. Who's arguing the 460 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: other side, Who was arguing the Bills. Yeah, and I 461 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: was arguing I was arguing the Cardinals, and just match 462 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: up wise, he thinks that because of the Manda Man 463 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 2: defense of the Cardinals play in their secondary, they're gonna 464 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: have a real tough time stopping the wide receivers with 465 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: pristine conditions for Buffalo, and this factor is in better 466 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: for the Bills because they play you know, they play 467 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: a warm weather style of football more than a more 468 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: than a cold weather style of football they do. Yeah, 469 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 2: so they're in Arizona, they're in the Dome, and they're 470 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 2: against that defense that does give up big yards in 471 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 2: the past play. So I'm with you on the Cardinals. 472 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 2: So if you want to hit the Cardinals, I'm okay 473 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: with it. I just have some people who are telling 474 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: me that we're on the wrong side. 475 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I'm gonna put in the maybe category. I look, 476 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 1: I don't love I don't love any games anymore, but 477 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: I think that it's the right side here. I think again, 478 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a you know, just kind 479 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: of the very basic Bilo Sell high. I think the 480 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: public is probably gonna like the Bills here after they 481 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: destroyed the Seahawks in that game. The Cardinals had that 482 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: horrible loss to the Dolphins, which again they could have 483 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: very easily won. I think the Bills traveling cross country 484 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: a homefield advantage doesn't mean anything really anymore, but I 485 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: do think cross country trips, and you brought up the 486 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 1: fair point about the Chargers coming cross country and again 487 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: harder west to go east. But still it is something 488 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 1: where I think, you know off that win. It's just 489 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: it's a decent time to sell the Bills. But I 490 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: don't feel great about it, so we'll put it in 491 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: the maybe category on the Cardinals. All Right, you got 492 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: anything else that you're remotely feeling? 493 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 2: One more game? Okay, this is horrible. Yes, just gonna 494 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: tell you this. This is my last on my list. 495 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 2: It's it's a play that even I don't like. But 496 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 2: it's a numbers play. Patriots in primetime catching seven and 497 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 2: a half points against the Ravens. 498 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: Oh goodness. 499 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: Here's the here's the thought. Okay, the thought is this, 500 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson against Bill Belichick. Defense has done pretty much nothing. Okay, 501 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: he has, Belichick has his number figured out. Even if 502 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 2: Gilmour doesn't play. He didn't practice today. But even if 503 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: Gimour doesn't play. I'm not really all that worried about it. 504 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 2: The biggest question I've got is whether or not the 505 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 2: Patriots can move the football against the Ravens defense. But 506 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 2: if that's my question, getting seven and a half means 507 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 2: there's a chance the Patriots are in this game, and 508 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 2: there's a chance that they have an opportunity to maybe have, 509 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 2: you know, a six point loss. It's a you know, 510 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty one type of loss here at 511 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 2: home to the Ravens. The Ravens don't blow out anybody, 512 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 2: and Lamar Jackson, I'm gonna trust Belichick to have a 513 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 2: defensive scheme enough that they don't give up big plays 514 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 2: in the run game and they make him throw, and 515 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: as we know, when he has to throw, he's not 516 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 2: done very well this season. So it's a bet on Belichick. 517 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 2: It's a bet on their defense, not really their offense. 518 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 2: But give me the seven and a half, I'll take 519 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: the Patriots in primetime. 520 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: Was that the same defense that let Joe Flacco throw 521 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: three touchdown passes? 522 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Stefan Gilmour wasn't there, And arguably you can 523 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 2: make a case that Flacco is a much better passer 524 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 2: than Lamar Jackson. Yeah, okay, I mean what would you 525 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 2: argue that point? Would you if you had to throw 526 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 2: a pass for your life if you had Lamar Jackson 527 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 2: throwing or Joe Flacco throwing? Who would you take? 528 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: I think I just you know, right, make sure my 529 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: will was there. 530 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco any day of the week. And you know 531 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 2: it's okay, Joe Flacco maybe not mister elite, but Joe 532 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 2: Flacco can throw the football a heck a lot better 533 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: than mar Jackson. 534 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: Can regardless, regardless, And again, we don't know if Gilmore 535 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: is gonna play here anyway, because I was one of 536 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: your points. But even if it doesn't really matter because 537 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 1: what you know, it's not as if you're like, oh god, 538 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna what are they gonna take away? Hollywood Brown. 539 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown hasn't been involved in you know, anything games 540 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: or whatever. I get. I get sort of the theory 541 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: of it, but man, Matt, watching that team on Monday 542 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:09,880 Speaker 1: night just look absolutely ridiculous. Like, if you're the Ravens 543 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: and you're defending this team, what are you? What are 544 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: you worried about? You see, maybe you double team Jacobe 545 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: Myers if you absolutely have to, and you just guard 546 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: against the run. What what in the world? How are 547 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: they going to move the ball? How are they going 548 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: to camp any points camp? 549 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 2: That's the only that you have to let Cam go 550 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 2: off and you and you have to let Cam run 551 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 2: the football. And I just I think that this team 552 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 2: is going to have a game plan like they do 553 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: every week where everyone goes, how are the Patriots going 554 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 2: to do it? And then they do it, and then 555 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: and then Belichick is like, oh, that's right, it's Belichick. Yeah, 556 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: I don't know in the game. I'm just saying this 557 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 2: that the hook theres is a big deal to me. 558 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: Seven and a half is a big deal to me. 559 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I don't know. Let me check the bed 560 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: out of all. Let me see where everybody's at, just 561 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: to know where we are. Sixty eight percent on the 562 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: Ravens seven without the hook, without the hook, So. 563 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: See, the hook matters to me, and a half matters 564 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: to me. 565 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: I would just like it on the record that you 566 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: crushed me for going after the forty nine ers and 567 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: you're willing to go with the Patriots. 568 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I know, Wait, how many rings does Shanahan have? Oh? 569 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: Man, are we have a Belichick? Are we gonna have 570 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: to debate. Look, Belichick is what happened. 571 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: What happened is the biggest game of his life last year. 572 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 2: What happened? Belichick has right got he lost that game. 573 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: Okay, Valichack has the same number of rings that he 574 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: had on Monday night when he nearly let the one 575 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: of the historically bad Teamsall do. 576 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: You know what to just do against the Patriots? You 577 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: know that, you know what the rivalry is like between 578 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 2: those two. 579 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,719 Speaker 1: Just stop. You need to stop making excuses. 580 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: To a team. I'm not debating that point. I'm just 581 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 2: talking about this from a point spread perspective. I'm talking 582 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: about winning and losing here, I'm talking about keeping it 583 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 2: within seven points. It's a big. 584 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: Difference to be as fair as But I don't have 585 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: a lean at all on this game. I guess you know, 586 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: to be very because you're not wrong. We talked we 587 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: you know, switched to the Ravens last week, and for 588 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: a while that looked like the wrong side. And maybe 589 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: if Johnthan Taylor doesn't fumble early like that and kind 590 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: of change the entire tenor of the game. Although Gus 591 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: Edward's fumbled on the goal line as well, so maybe 592 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: not but yeah, that game didn't look good and the Ravens. 593 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 1: Did you tweet out that the Ravens offense is broken 594 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: or something? Somebody tweeted out. 595 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 2: I feel I think it is broken. 596 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: Person, Yeah, I think you might have tweeted that out somebody. 597 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 2: Game it looked broken. 598 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: Now, that's what I mean. 599 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 2: During the game, they just can't do anything. I mean, 600 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: I mean, look the Colts defense. We'll see it, We'll 601 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 2: see it tonight. Colt's defense is good. It's on paper, 602 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: it's paper good. And and Lamar Jackson made them look like, 603 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 2: you know, the Steel Curtain. 604 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's keep talking about every other game 605 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: here and just see whether or not we get to 606 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: anywhere that we like, because right now we're legitimately looking 607 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: at one game that we like, maybe two games that 608 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: we don't absolutely despise, and then everything else is kind 609 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: of up in the air. So let's let's just talk 610 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: through each of the games. I'm not giving you a 611 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: side when I list, I'm just gonna list the favorite first, 612 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: so don't take from it that I'm I'm asking for 613 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: a side. How do you feel about the Rams laying 614 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: one and a half points to the Seahawks in Los Angeles. 615 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: It's just a tough bounce back spot because I think 616 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 2: Seattle they turned the ball over so many times last week. 617 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 2: I think they're angry about it. I'm just concerned if that, 618 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 2: you know, four leaf clover is gonna wilt there for Seattle, 619 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 2: with how many games they've won on the last second 620 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 2: and you know, getting getting to all the breaks, is 621 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: it now going to go against them and they're going 622 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 2: to start to cough the football up and turn the 623 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 2: football over and come back down to Earth. So I mean, 624 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 2: I like Seattle. I think Seal's the right side in 625 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 2: that game, but I'm concerned about it. 626 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: I actually think the Rams might be the right side here. 627 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: And I think, really what it is that I'm no 628 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: longer scared to go against the Seahawks because that defense 629 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: is historically bad, Yeah, historically bad. And you know, Cooper 630 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: Cups will banged up in this game, and you know 631 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: the Rams are but you know, I don't I don't 632 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: think Jalen Ramsey can necessarily shut down DK Metcalf. But 633 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: they did know the Rams are really good defense, and 634 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 1: they're they're underrated a bit, and you're giving you're giving 635 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: McVeigh two weeks to prepare for this act. 636 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: Look, the Rams are might picked to win the division. 637 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 2: So if you wanted to, if you wanted to have 638 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 2: this be one of our picks, I wouldn't fight you 639 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 2: on it because I think I just I'm concerned about 640 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 2: the I'm concerned about what happened last week. Yeah, if 641 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: Seattle doesn't turn the football over, it turns into a shootout, 642 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 2: and then I'm trusting Jared Goff to be a shootout, 643 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 2: which is like true, Oh, but you're right. The Rams 644 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 2: defense is tremendous. It's the strength of their defense. It 645 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 2: was a circular team and if they could get a 646 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: lead and then keep the ball away from Ross, then yeah, 647 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 2: I mean the recipe is there for a Rams victory. 648 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: All right, let's put it on the maybe gross list. 649 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: How about the Bears laying two and a half points 650 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: to the Vikings in Chicago on Monday night football? 651 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 2: And so the stat is this going into tonight, which 652 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 2: it factors in teams who are playing at home against 653 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 2: divisional opponents that are catching points are twelve and one 654 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 2: against the spread. Yep, so the Bears factor into this. 655 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 2: So if I was going to take a play, not 656 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: that I'm going to go strictly on just on a trend, 657 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 2: but I think it's a decent trend to look at. 658 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 2: I would take the Bears at home against the Vikings 659 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: because I don't think the Vikings can do much else 660 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 2: besides doubt and Cook and the Bears probably gonna take 661 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 2: him away. 662 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: By the way, I said that wrong. I apologize the 663 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: Bears are getting to an a half points, not laying 664 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: to an a half points. 665 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I said it. 666 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: I'm just saying for the listeners. You knew it correctly, 667 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 1: You knew it correctly. Yeah. I kind of don't mind 668 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: the Bears here, Matt. I mean, I'm a little I'd 669 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: like Dave Montgomery to play. We don't know, because he's 670 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: got the concussion. But Kirk Cousins especially, you know, in 671 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 1: primetime in Chicago. I don't know. I kind of like 672 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: it's gross because I don't want to really back and 673 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,880 Speaker 1: I've been fading the Bears quite a bit. But I 674 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: do think that they're going to be able to keep 675 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: this close and probably win it in the end. The 676 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: Vikings just are not a good team. Their secondary is 677 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: not good. You know, Nick Foles is willing to take shots. 678 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: You know, Mooney's kind of coming into his own a 679 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: little bit. I would I'd be willing to take the 680 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: Bears here if you came in and said I like 681 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: the Bears, I'd be willing to do it. 682 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: But in primetime I don't mind it. 683 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: I I yeah, all right, let's put it on the 684 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: maybe list. Then we've got NonStop Maybes going on. 685 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: I love it. 686 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, what have we talked about yet? 687 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: Philly and New York and Jacksonville and Green. 688 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: Bay Fit and the Lions. Let's let's get to Let's 689 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: get to Philly and New York. The Eagles are laying 690 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: nine and three and a half. Pardon me, three and 691 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: a half to the Giants in New York. By the way, 692 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: with the with the Bills and the Bears and Vikings, 693 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: fifty percent our bet analyzer are on the Vikings, just 694 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: so everybody knows. Okay, So yeah, what do you think 695 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: the Eagles laying three and a half to the Giants in. 696 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 2: New York's same conversation. In the last time, it's a 697 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 2: home dog in division. Give me the Giants post three 698 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 2: and a half. If I bet the game, it's Giants 699 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: post three and a half all day over the Eagles. 700 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: That's how I feel, too like, and I don't love 701 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: it by any means, right, but that's how I feel. 702 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: If you're giving me if if I had any confidence 703 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: in Daniel Jones at all to just not bungle it 704 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: up completely and blow the game at like the last minute, 705 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: I would take them to keep it closed. I think 706 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: people are gonna be like Eagles off bye, here they come, 707 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, And I think you're just gonna still 708 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: be like, why is Carson Wentz holding the ball for 709 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: eight seconds and throwing it off his back foot into 710 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: triple coverage? So another game where I'll put in the 711 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: maybe list. I mean, the Giants getting three and a 712 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: half whatever, I mean, give us some fun here. 713 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 2: This is what matters there to me. 714 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, the hook matters exactly. Okay, let's go to the 715 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: next game. The Lions laying four and a half to Washington. 716 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 2: I hate this game so much. Yes, there's nothing in 717 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: this game. I like, there is no way you can 718 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: convince me to take a slide in this game besides 719 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 2: just taking the points because both teams are horrible. So 720 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: if I had to bet, it'll take the Washington team. 721 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: But I hate I mean, I just absolutely hate this game. 722 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: You couldn't force me to take this game legitimately under 723 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: any circumstances. There's not I don't have a single feeling 724 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: about this game other than runaway Packers laying three and 725 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: a half thirteen and a half. Goodness, I'm so sorry 726 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: Packer's laying thirteen and a half to the Jaguars. Before 727 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: you do, hold on, I do want to see if 728 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: our bet Atalyzer is where it looks at right now 729 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: in that game. No, that is legitimately the most even 730 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: split game on everybody. I bet you it's also going 731 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: to be the least bet game of the weekend because 732 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: nobody wants to go there. But it's fifty four percent 733 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: if anybody cares is backing the Washington football team Lange 734 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: four and a half. Anyway, the Packers laying thirteen and 735 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: a half to the Jaguars in Green Bay, I. 736 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: Mean, how do you? I mean, this is the ultimate 737 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: professional bet. Okay, professionals are going to lay thirteen and 738 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 2: a half just blindly, right, just blindly because it's thirteen 739 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 2: and a half points in the NFL, and they pay 740 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 2: their players too. But I don't know how in the 741 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 2: world you could take Jacksonville on the same level. I 742 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: don't know how you lay nearly two touchdowns at home 743 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 2: for this Packers team. I just don't trust either one 744 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: of these teams to cover. So if I had to 745 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 2: bet it, I would say Green Bay based on quarterback play, 746 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 2: but no way would I ever take it. 747 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, if there's wind in this game as well, I 748 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: believe this is the other wind game. I think there 749 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: were two. I believe this was the other one. I 750 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: could be wrong, but yeah, like I can't, I don't know. 751 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: I did not learn anything about Jake Luton last week, 752 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: like I was. 753 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 2: He played throw. Yeah, I don't know how much you 754 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 2: saw him in college, but that kid can throw a football. 755 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: He can throw. He can throw and if you you know, 756 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: although he doesn't move all that well, that was a 757 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: nifty spin move to get to the ends on there 758 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: against the Texans, But it was the Texans defense. I 759 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: have no idea what he's going to look like in 760 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: Lambeau against a wrested Packers defense. So really not a 761 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: game I want to trust on either side. I think 762 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: the only game that we haven't talked about is the 763 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: Broncos getting five and a half from the Raiders in 764 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. It's five and a half. So yeah, I 765 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: know you hate the Raiders. 766 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 2: This is one of my bets of the week for 767 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: the Daily Juice. I've already bet it. The over in 768 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: this game is gonna hit. Ah. Okay, the over is fifty. 769 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 2: This is I have no idea why the number is fifty. 770 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: It is bizarre to me why this number is so low. 771 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: Denver is not going to get any I mean, the 772 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 2: Raiders are going to get any pressure on Drew Locke 773 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 2: and the one thing that Drew Lot can do is 774 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 2: throw with a clean pocket like most quarterbacks can. The Raers, 775 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 2: on the other hand, are gonna run the ball and 776 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 2: throw the ball deep. I think Ruggs is a monster game. 777 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 2: I think you see Waller have a monster game. I 778 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 2: just think points points points in this game. I hate 779 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 2: the five and a half point numbers, so I won't 780 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 2: go near it. But if I had to lay it, 781 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: I would lay it with Vegas. 782 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't have a great feel for it, to 783 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: be fair, I don't. I think I agree with the over, 784 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: but I don't love it. Meanwhile, the consensus spread is 785 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,719 Speaker 1: down to four, which is interesting. I think if I 786 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: had to go on one side. I might go with 787 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: the Broncos just to cover, you know, do like a 788 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: backdoor cover, because that's all I mean. Right, if the 789 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: Raiders get up ahead, you know, Drew Locks is gonna 790 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: go absolutely insane and just start throwing not. 791 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: I think it's a thirty twenty seven type of game, 792 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: one way or the other. So I think there's fifty. 793 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: I think it gets through fifty pretty easily. So that's 794 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 2: all I prefer the over in this game. Then the side. 795 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's get really gross and talk about where 796 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: we are. So here's what I'm gonna do. We know 797 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: we're taking the Bucks laying four and a half to 798 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: the Panthers. Yeah, I'm going to add in the Bengals 799 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: getting six and a half from Pittsburgh because that was 800 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: like the least yuck I could get to and we 801 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: were on the right side. Okay, hold on, let me 802 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: just ride it in. Okay. So these are the other games, Matt, 803 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: and you can let me know if I've missed one. 804 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: These were the other games where we weren't, like essentially 805 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 1: on different sides, which means we'd have to pick three 806 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: of these gross four games. The Cardinals laying two and 807 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: a half to the Bills, the Rams laying one and 808 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: a half to the Seahawks, the Bears getting two and 809 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: a half from the Vikings, and the Giants getting three 810 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: and a half from the Eagles. 811 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 2: Rams Bears, Giants. 812 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: Rams Bears, Giants. I am okay with that, actually, and 813 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: if I am going to be as transparent as possible, 814 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: all three of those were in my list of h 815 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: I can live with this. That's where they were. They 816 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 1: were all in my list. The Rams laying one and 817 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: a half to the Seahawks, the Bears getting two and 818 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: a half points from the Vikings, and the Giants getting 819 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: three and a half points from the Eagles. I like 820 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: the Giants with the hook. I think the Bears are 821 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: gonna win out right, and I think the Rams are 822 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: gonna win out right.
