Stuck initial thoughts 42 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 3: on this Thursday night football matchup. 43 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, just to set the stage here, well, actually should 44 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 4: just let me just give an update on the kind 45 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 4: of the lay of the land of the NFL. I 46 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 4: think it's a good time to do it. As we 47 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 4: head into Week fourteen, Home teams are ninety six, ninety 48 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 4: four and one, so basically, there are exactly five hundred 49 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 4: on the air, and last year's win percentage of fifty 50 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 4: one point two percent was the lowest since nineteen seventy two. 51 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: And if you go back from twenty three twenty nineteen, 52 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 4: fifty seven percent win rate straight up for home team's 53 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 4: average margin about two point four points against the spread. 54 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 4: Road teams are hitting at about fifty two and a 55 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 4: half percent on the year, covering by about one point 56 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 4: three points on average overs and unders about even on 57 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 4: the year. So basically, what those numbers tell you and 58 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 4: everyone's were, you know, trying to figure out what his 59 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 4: home field worth without fans, is that there is no 60 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 4: home field avands this year. An home field has been 61 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: coming down. We've talked about that before, but you have 62 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 4: to remember there's still a lot of noise. It's still 63 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 4: a small sample size, you know, of games that we're 64 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 4: talking about, close to two hundred games, it's gonna be 65 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 4: a lot of noise there. I still have my average 66 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 4: home field around one point lower for division games, about 67 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 4: a half point difference between division and non division games, 68 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 4: but it comes out to about an average one point. 69 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 4: But maybe I'm too high, Maybe I'm too low. It's 70 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 4: a continual process. But this game will be played in 71 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 4: Los ange Angelus and New England was in Los Angeles 72 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 4: last week, so they're staying out there and it's a 73 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 4: rematch of the Super Bowl. And I'm really intrigued just 74 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 4: to see. I mean, basically, Bill Belichick, Flores and company 75 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 4: ruined Sean McVay for about a season plus, right, They 76 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 4: came in and just completely shut down that Rams offense. 77 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 4: They kind of gave the league a script. Actually, if 78 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 4: you go back, it. 79 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 5: Was Bears Bears too. 80 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was the Bears, and then with Vic Fangio 81 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 4: and then it was you know, Matt Patricia had his 82 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 4: hand in there, Matt Patricia call out. But you know, 83 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 4: then Sean McVay coming into this year, is redesigned, went 84 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 4: back to the lab and has done some new things 85 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: with the offense. So it'll be interesting to see what 86 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 4: the Patriots do from a scheme perspective here, because this 87 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 4: front seven is nowhere close to it as good as 88 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 4: the front seven that we saw then. And same with 89 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 4: the back end. They've had a lot of opt outs. 90 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 4: You know. Whatever, I look at the Rams, it's okay, 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 4: and then you really get pressure on golf to disrupt 92 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 4: the offense, and you get pressure on golf, it's pretty simple. 93 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 4: He's probably gonna flop and the Patriots aren't elite at 94 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 4: getting pressure. Now, can they come up with something scheme wise, 95 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 4: we'll see. I have a slight lean to the underyard. 96 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 4: I mean the Patriots, they can't throw the ball. They're 97 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 4: just trying to grind a ball and grind the clock 98 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 4: down the field. Yes, they won forty five nothing last week, 99 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,799 Speaker 4: but Cam Newton threw for sixty nine yards not nice, 100 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 4: and the Patriots had less than three hundred yards at 101 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 4: four point four yards we play. They basically won on 102 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 4: special teams. We know all bet the charge special teams are. 103 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 4: And in the week before against Arizona they won twenty 104 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 4: to seventeen. Cam Newton threw for eighty four yards and 105 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 4: the Patriots had one hundred and seventy nine total yards 106 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 4: three point five yards per play. They went back to 107 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 4: back games in the NFL with those offensive stets mainly 108 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 4: based on special teams, so you know that's very hard 109 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 4: to sustain. I don't see them winning this game be 110 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 4: a special teas. I think the Rams offense can do 111 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 4: enough here to get this win. I think the line 112 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,799 Speaker 4: is about right. I have a slight lean to the under. 113 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: It's probably nothing I'll get involved with from a football 114 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 4: fan perspective. I'm just really intrigued to see the x's 115 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 4: and o's here and see what Belichick cooks up, how 116 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 4: the adjustments that McVeigh has made. And now golf handle's 117 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 4: going up against the Patriots here, so it should be 118 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 4: fascinating from that aspect. And maybe I'll get in live. 119 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 4: If you don't follow me, follow me on the Action 120 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 4: Network app and see if I get anything there. But 121 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 4: I think I won't be getting in on any anything pregame. 122 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 4: It's one of those weeks where the lines are really sharp. 123 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 4: There's not a ton of edges out there. For my numbers, 124 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: I think I only had three. I had no discrepancies 125 00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 4: and spreads of over a field goal only three over 126 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 4: a point, which I'll get to in this show. So 127 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 4: it's a really tough, efficiently lined week. There's some spots 128 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 4: and some matchups that we're gonna get into where I 129 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 4: think you can still find some matches, but here this 130 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 4: looks like a pass to me, but a really fascinating game. 131 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 4: I just don't know if the Patriots offense can do 132 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 4: enough and you can't just keep relying on special teams touchdowns. 133 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 3: Well, in here we go because it's Week fourteen, so 134 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 3: I'll switch it up. You usually have the special team's numbers. 135 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 3: I'll give you one. The Patriots number three in special 136 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 3: teams DVOA eight point eight percent above average. The Rams 137 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 3: number thirty negative seven point four percent. So interestingly enough, 138 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: you know the Patriots could have a special team's advantage 139 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 3: in this game. Now, what does that mean for the Rams? 140 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 5: And does it flow down? Because I think the Rams 141 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 5: have done. 142 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 3: A great job this year of masking Jared Goff's deficiencies, 143 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 3: especially since they did lose Andrew Whitworth a couple of 144 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 3: weeks ago, So you know, that's you know, that's big 145 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 3: for them. And and they really didn't do much over 146 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 3: the offseason, remember to kind of show up that old line. 147 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: It's kind of just continuity and and and and some 148 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: new schemes. 149 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 5: So Sean McVay really has done a good job. 150 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 4: And some younger backs, which is help because their running 151 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 4: game has been really good. Yeah, Todd Gurley getting stuffed anymore? 152 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, high it's a high volume run game. You have 153 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 3: three capable backs that fell, you know, that can fill 154 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 3: different roles, kind of a little bit like the forty 155 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: nine ers had in that Super Bowl run last year. 156 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 5: So yeah, it's it's a good game. 157 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 3: I have it about Rams by four, but you know, 158 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 3: the difference between four and five and a half is 159 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 3: not really you know, something to where you're jumping to 160 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 3: bet uh the the the underdog in that spot, because 161 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 3: between you know, four and five and a half, you 162 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: know at three and a half and five and a 163 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 3: half really are It's kind of like a dead zone 164 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 3: where you know three is a key number, six is 165 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 3: the key number. So I have a little bit, you know, 166 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: tweaned towards the Patriots, but it's I still expect it 167 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: to be, you know, a one scoring game at the 168 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 3: end of the day. 169 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's yeah. I mean the special teams that is 170 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 4: a good point. I say, you can't keep relying on it. 171 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 4: But the Rams special teams have been have been miserable. 172 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 4: Their return game is awful, so they might lose the 173 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 4: field position battle here their kick end punt return uh 174 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: and their kicker, I don't know who their kick. Their 175 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 4: kicker is Matt Gay I think right now he's listened 176 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 4: as questionable because if he's a shoulder injury and they 177 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 4: have Austin McGinnis on the practice squad and their kicking 178 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: has just not been great. So yeah, I don't know. 179 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: Their kicker injured their shoulder, his shoulder apparently, which might 180 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 4: prevent them from kicking. I mean, how the hell does 181 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 4: that uh impact them? But yeah, you're right, the RAM 182 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 4: special team has been brutal, so maybe the Patriots make 183 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 4: a big player too. There's a missed field goal and 184 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: I don't know if that will be enough, but it 185 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 4: definitely could impact the cover here. But this is a 186 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 4: stay away from me. 187 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's because the charges have been 188 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 3: so historically bad at special teams, but it does seem 189 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 3: and the Dolphins have been really good too, But it 190 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 3: just seems like special teams is impacting games in a 191 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 3: meaningful way a little bit more this year. It could 192 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 3: just be like a small sample size with you know, 193 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: a couple of teams happening to face off against each other, 194 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 3: but something to think about. 195 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 4: We don't love anything on Thursday football, so if you're 196 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 4: looking for action on the game, you know we have 197 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 4: great prop players, including yourself, Matt Friedman, Sean corner the 198 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 4: Odds Maker.

You're up thirty eight to thirty one. 244 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 3: I guess this is my time because this is around 245 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 3: the time I came back last year. Yeah, but I 246 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 3: got work to do because I think we've been hitting 247 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 3: totals lately, but keep picking the wrong two point play, 248 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 3: which is killing me. Should should have just picked the 249 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 3: Jets on the spread last week. I can't believe they't 250 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 3: believe what happened at the end of that game. I'm 251 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 3: sure we'll talk about it, but I'm up first this week. 252 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: You'll go first for the total for the number one 253 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 3: pick of the week fourteen Sunday six pack, I am 254 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 3: going with z Atlanta Falcons minus two and a half 255 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 3: at the LA Chargers, And I'm just gonna keep testing 256 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: this Chargers team and Anthony Winn until they showed me 257 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 3: otherwise because number one, I really do like this Falcons team, 258 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 3: and I think because they played New Orleans twice games 259 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 3: that I thought, you know, they could they could have won, 260 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 3: and you know, the second time they're more competitive than 261 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 3: the first. But you know, maybe those two losses are 262 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 3: kind of masking some of the improvements that they've made 263 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the ball since Raheem Morris 264 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 3: took over. You know, even in this latest Saints game, 265 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 3: they gave up twenty one. The week before they give 266 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 3: up just six points. They haven't given up a thirty 267 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 3: point game under Raheem Morris. Twenty seven was the high 268 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 3: by the Denver Broncos in a game where the Broncos 269 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 3: were playing catch up for much of the second half. 270 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 3: So I really do like the Falcons team and some 271 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: of the improvements they've made. But this is a game 272 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 3: where you know, Anthony Winn gets the biggest coaching downgrade 273 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 3: for me, you know, in my model, out of out 274 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: of any team. And now you're starting to see the 275 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 3: metrics line up with with his Chargers, with the Chargers 276 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: play on the field, because for money, much of the season, 277 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 3: it was like, Okay, the Chargers are kind of an 278 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 3: average team with a great you know quarterback playing well, 279 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: some talent just playing a little bit, you know, below 280 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 3: their true talent level, underachieving a bit. You usually expect 281 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 3: those teams to kind of bounce back. But now you 282 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: look up and you look at DVOA and remember dvoa's 283 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: schedule adjusted, and the Chargers, after this latest defeat to 284 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 3: the Patriots, are now thirtieth in total DVOA and waited DVOA, 285 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 3: which waits the more recent games more heavily. 286 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 5: The Chargers are number thirty one in the league. 287 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 3: The Falcons are twenty second overall, so not great, but 288 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 3: they do improve three spots when you you look at 289 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 3: weighted DVAA. So this is essentially a lee average team 290 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 3: versus a bottom three team, which and you know, I 291 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 3: have this number at four. I think I'm the highest 292 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 3: of any of us. I think you have it significantly lower. 293 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 3: But I do kind of take into account, you know, coaching, 294 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: because it does impact the spread and the models, and 295 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 3: I think that's the biggest discrepancy I've seen with my 296 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: numbers and some of the quote unquote sharper numbers out there. 297 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 3: You know, what the big money is doing in a 298 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: given week, they're not going they're not adjusting for coaching. 299 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: And I think you saw that early in the year 300 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 3: with a lot of bets kind of coming in on 301 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: the Falcons, and you're kind of seeing that later in 302 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 3: the year with the Chargers still getting a lot of 303 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 3: love in the market despite continuously showing us that they 304 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: they're not going to play as well as you would 305 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: expect given what they look like. On paper, and I 306 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 3: think it was kind of significant that after that Bill's 307 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 3: game two weeks ago, the Chargers officially eliminated, essentially their 308 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: playoff chances went to zero. And then for them to 309 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 3: come out last week forty five to Nelson as a home. 310 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 4: Favorite, they lose. 311 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 3: Pro Football Reference has spread data dating back to nineteen 312 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: seventy five. Up until the Chargers game last week, no 313 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 3: home favorite had ever been shut out more than thirty 314 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: five than nothing, and that was also the Chargers in 315 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 3: like I think the eight seventies, or it might have 316 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 3: been early eighties, but they're still at home, second worst 317 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 3: team in the league according to wait to DVA. I'm 318 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 3: taking them minus two and a half, essentially betting on 319 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 3: the Falcons to win the game here in LA. 320 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 4: I think it actually was the most lopsided home loss 321 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: shutout loss in nineteen eighty nine, but whatever, Yeah, it's been. 322 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 4: It's definitely been over thirty years for sure. But what 323 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 4: I disagree is I make this closer to a pick now. 324 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 4: All I did is tease I have a teaser piece 325 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 4: out for this week to make sure you check it out. 326 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 4: I teased the Chargers up from two and a half 327 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 4: to three and a half, it fits the mold. I 328 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 4: do think that it's the one thing that's not great 329 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 4: about teasing is I think it's going to be a 330 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 4: higher scoring game, which doesn't make it an ide because 331 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: I make it to a pick. I was more than 332 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 4: comfortable teasing the Chargers from two and a half to 333 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 4: eight and a half, and outside of last week, all 334 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 4: they've done is playing lots of close games. And you know, 335 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 4: if just going back to history, if any trends, players 336 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 4: are out there a home dog after a more than 337 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 4: three touchdown loss since two thousand and three, forty twenty 338 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 4: three and two against the spread at sixty three and 339 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 4: a half percent. Teams off of a shutout loss are 340 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 4: twenty six and one against the spread since twenty fifteen, 341 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 4: about sixty eight percent over the past twenty years a 342 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 4: home dog. So after getting a shut out, a team 343 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 4: that's a home dog is thirty one and six when 344 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 4: teased since two thousand and one. So that's what I'm 345 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 4: doing here now. That is all of what I just 346 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 4: said goes back to kind of one of my key 347 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 4: philosophies in the NFL just works this way with your 348 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 4: numbers is buying low and selling high. So you know, 349 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 4: everyone sees the Chargers lose forty five nothing last week, 350 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 4: and it's so they're terrible. And look just coming out saying, 351 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 4: I'm fading Anthony Lynn to not win this game because 352 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 4: the cheargis pretty much have to win this game to cover. 353 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 4: That's actually sound enough reasoning right there. But the one 354 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 4: thing that you're fighting against here. I saw this really 355 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 4: funny tweet, and I apologize to the author because I 356 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 4: don't remember the handle where it said. The Atlanta Falcons 357 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 4: are an organization of fifty two players working together in 358 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 4: order to maximize who's fantasy points their kicker, which because 359 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 4: they cannot score in the red zone, it's what cost 360 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 4: them last I mean, it is amazing. The only the 361 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 4: only two teams that are less successful in the reds 362 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 4: of the year are the Giants and the Jets. And 363 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 4: it's crazy, by the way, special teams game. If you 364 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 4: talk special teams, this goes to your point. This is 365 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 4: a revenge game for cou revenge kicker game. And he's 366 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 4: been great and the honey bag, the hunt, the money Badger. 367 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 4: Can't name yourself as a kicker. He's been awful. Charge 368 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 4: of Specialty has been also that could end up being 369 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 4: the difference he covered two and a half, just a 370 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 4: missfield goal or a field goal. But yeah, I mean 371 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 4: the Falcons just the red zone. I don't I can't 372 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 4: figure out why they're so bad in the red zone. 373 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 4: They can't run the ball and then all the mobile quarterback. 374 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 4: I'm sure that's part of it, but the play calling 375 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 4: doesn't seem to be ideal. I do expect Justin Herbert 376 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 4: to bounce back against the soft Falcons defense. It has improved, 377 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 4: but Herbert's been good almost every week except last week. 378 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 4: And this isn't a Bill Belichick defense. So dating Anthony 379 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 4: Linda Louse, I can't give you too much shit, But 380 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 4: for me, I'm teasing the Chargers up to eight and 381 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 4: a half. 382 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and no, I'm usually on the you 383 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 3: know by low so high. I actually have a pick 384 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 3: that kind of fits into that perfectly. But my numbers 385 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 3: actually make this four like so you know, it's a 386 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 3: spot where usually when you're buying low selling highwake. You know, 387 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 3: we had the Jets and Raiders like seven and a 388 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 3: half last week, you know, things like that, usually the 389 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 3: numbers a little bit higher. But this is kind of 390 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, you know the Chargers are still kind 391 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 3: of getting that benefit of the doubt. I just don't 392 00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 3: see it. I mean, Anthony Wynn, you know, he's nine 393 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 3: in eighteen NLA against the spread. Like that's hard to do, 394 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 3: you know, at home, like over that span of time. 395 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna continue to fade him like the Falcons 396 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 3: and improvement. 397 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 5: But yeah, essentially just betting on Anthony win to lose 398 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 5: a game. 399 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 6: I hope you're enjoying this great Action network podcast.

It's treated me very well this year. And 414 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 4: that's Tom Brady off of a loss, and if you 415 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 4: want to know the stats, he's thirty four and twelve 416 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,959 Speaker 4: against the spread off a straight up loss. It applied 417 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 4: against the Chiefs and he got us in the back door. 418 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 4: Know is coming, my dog. He's the most profitable of 419 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 4: two hundred and three quarterbacks in our Action Labs database, 420 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 4: covering by an average margin of six points per game 421 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 4: in those forty six games. And at BETMGM, the Bucks 422 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 4: are minus six and a half as a underdog or 423 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 4: favorite of less than a touchdown. Brady after a loss 424 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 4: is twenty six and three against the spread eighty nine 425 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 4: point seven percent. Insane. Tampa's obviously coming off of a 426 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 4: buy here that will help with their health, specifically a receiver. 427 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 4: I know Chris Godwin is in practicing. I expect him 428 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 4: to play. He had pins removed in his fingers, so 429 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 4: he didn't practice today. I assume he's just recovering from that. 430 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 4: But dean their corner, he should be back. Ali marpett 431 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 4: I fully expect to be on the offensive line. That's huge, 432 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 4: and I think, look what has Tampa done this year. 433 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 4: They've lost to the elite teams, the elite defenses, and 434 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 4: Brady hasn't looked great. This is not an elite defense. 435 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 4: These are corners that can be picked on. This is 436 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 4: a team that doesn't get pressure. The Vikings are twenty 437 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 4: fourth and adjusted sack rate when Brady's clean, clean in 438 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 4: the pocket this year, twenty five touchdowns, six picks, eighty 439 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 4: percent adjusted completion percentage when he's under pressure, He's thirtieth 440 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 4: or forty quarterbacks in quarterback rating three touchdowns, five picks, 441 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 4: fifty eight point two percent adjusted completion percent just thirty 442 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 4: fifth out of forty quarterbacks with a minimum of one 443 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 4: hundred dropbacks. And additionally you have the Vikings, who you know, 444 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 4: they've won two straight, but their injury report is really troubling. 445 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 4: Eric Kendricks didn't practice today. Both their tight ends, Kyle 446 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 4: Rudolph and IRV Smith didn't practice today. You know Glad 447 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 4: neither corner. He wasn't doing much of practice today. So 448 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 4: the Vikings are pretty banged up, while Tampa really got healthy. 449 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 4: We know that the Bucks beat these bad defenses in 450 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 4: these average to below average teams by a lot off 451 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 4: the loss they'd shown it and the Vikings just look, 452 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 4: I mean, can we take a look at what the 453 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 4: Vikings have done of late? Yes, I mean they lost 454 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 4: to Dallas at home, and we've seen, Hey was Dallas 455 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 4: having a resurgence? Now we've answered that question. They got 456 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 4: trucked by Washington and then trucked by Baltimore. Since that 457 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 4: loss to Dallas, Minnesota had a miraculous home win against Carolina, 458 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 4: a miraculous miracle. They scored eighteen points in the fourth quarter, 459 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 4: last second touchdown and then survived a missed field goal. 460 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 4: They really should have lost that game. And last week 461 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 4: they played the Jags at home. So this is the 462 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 4: Panthers and the Jags and back to back home after 463 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 4: losing to the Cowboys, and in that game, Minnesota again 464 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 4: had a very fortunate win. They had to come back 465 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 4: late and they won an overtime in a game where 466 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 4: they're playing Mike Glennon and the yardage was four twenty 467 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 4: to three to ninety yards per play. Vikings four point nine, 468 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: Jags five point seven. This team's trending in the wrong direction, 469 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 4: and the Bucks matchup well they can take They can 470 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 4: at least contain Dalvin Cook, which is where that entire 471 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 4: offense starts from. I think the Bucks, hopefully you would think, 472 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 4: figured out some things from a play calling perspective, on offense, 473 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 4: stopped throwing the Leonard Fournette. I think the Bucks come 474 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 4: out here with their haird fire and Brady gets another 475 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,239 Speaker 4: cover getting under a touchdown here after a loss. So 476 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 4: give me Tampa minus six and a half. 477 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think. 478 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 3: You know, I've noticed kind of the same thing with 479 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 3: Minnesota is that they're they're struggling against really flawed teams. 480 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 3: You know, I was did an article that should be 481 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 3: up soon on the Action Network just kind of breaking 482 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 3: down all of the NFC East teams after you know, 483 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 3: the to the Washington and Giants get the shutout win, 484 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 3: and just kind of looking over what they, you know, 485 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 3: who would be their ideal playoff opponent if they got there. 486 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 3: And Minnesota came up for me a lot, just because 487 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 3: I think a lot of of those teams would match 488 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 3: up well. 489 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 5: And one of the reasons is Minnesota has struggled. 490 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: Against the bad teams, and if you struggle against the 491 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 3: bad teams, you're going to struggle against the good teams. 492 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 5: And Tampa Bay that's that's really been there m O 493 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 5: this year. 494 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: And it's also not primetime, so Brady should be righte 495 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 3: awake and Ray, you. 496 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 5: Know, got all sleeping it's the bye. 497 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 3: You know, they had to buy Brady, remember he's forty three, didn't. 498 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 5: Have a buye to week twelve. 499 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 3: So I love this, and I love them as a 500 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 3: tease piece as well, because you could now tease them 501 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 3: to essentially win the game at at a half point. 502 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 3: So do like this pick No for my number two 503 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 3: pick and the number three overall pick of the week 504 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 3: fourteen Sunday six pack, I am going with the biggest 505 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 3: edge that I see at our pro models, and that's 506 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers plus two and a half at the 507 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills. And I think, listen, you know, we've talked 508 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 3: about the Steelers, and I actually thought they would they 509 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 3: would beat Washington last week. But we've talked about this, yeah, 510 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 3: right exactly. 511 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: I was. 512 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 4: I was rooting for the Steelers to win so we 513 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 4: could get Buffalo plus three here, yeah, and then I 514 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 4: wanted Buffalo to lose, to say a fran uh, and 515 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 4: then that would have been a slam spot because we 516 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 4: definitely would have got I think Bill's plus three. 517 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: This is not It was not a good Monday for me. 518 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 3: Like it was like it was like Steelers bow the 519 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 3: Weed Bills and then Jack and I had the singletary 520 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 3: under because I love that Niner run defense, and then 521 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: Zach like singingo, Erry gets hurt and I'm like, okay, good, 522 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 3: and then Zack Moss gets hurt, singles Terry gets like 523 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 3: every carry. I was like, oh, this is just this 524 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 3: is not going well. So yeah, yeah, one of those Mondays. 525 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 3: But this is how you this is how you do it. 526 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 3: You have to. It's kind of like being a cornerback, 527 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 3: like you know, who gets burned and you have to 528 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 3: come back. You can't be scared to come back and 529 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 3: play man coverage again. So we're going right back with 530 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 3: the Steelers plus two and a half. I can't believe 531 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 3: I'm betting on the Steelers here, but this this number. 532 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 3: I actually have the Steelers as slight favorites. So this 533 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 3: this number is pretty off to me. And I think 534 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 3: it is a reaction to what we saw in two 535 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 3: National TV games back to back last Monday night. And listen, 536 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 3: the Steelers they're not quite as good on defense as 537 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 3: they were earlier in the year. Why because all their 538 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 3: linebackers keep going out their knees. So with that being said, 539 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 3: this Buffalo team, you know, is one that this strength 540 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 3: of schedule does pull their numbers down a little bit. 541 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 3: They have beaten some kind of some kind of average 542 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: to bow below average teams. The Steelers still are gonna 543 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 3: have kind of the same issues they have on offense 544 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 3: as well. But all that being said, I think this 545 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: is a very evenly matched two teams. And Buffalo you 546 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: mentioned it, there's not really a big home field advantage 547 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 3: this year, so that's another factor kind of playing in 548 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 3: to where I have the Steelers as as again a 549 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: slight favorite the plus two and a half. I think 550 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 3: that this is a great spot for Mike Tomlin. Now, 551 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 3: you know, he kind of and I thought it would 552 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 3: happen last week, which is why I thought that the 553 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 3: Steelers would handle Washington. But I thought after that game 554 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 3: against Baltimore, and I think Tomlin tried to do it. 555 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 3: You know, he called him out, he said they sucked 556 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 3: and whatnot, but he didn't really get his point across 557 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 3: because they still won that game. But now now you 558 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 3: have durra ra Tomlin spot back a little bit where 559 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 3: he has some real kind of teaching points to go 560 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 3: off of, and you look at the Steelers and you know, 561 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 3: we've talked about this and there's kind of like some 562 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 3: very specific spots where you back them and where you 563 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 3: fade them. Mike Tomlin as an underdog thirty six and 564 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 3: eighteen against the spread sixty seven percent, Mike Tomlin off 565 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 3: of loss forty two thirty fifty eight percent against the spread, 566 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 3: and then Sean McDermott is is just forty three percent 567 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 3: against the spread off a multi game straight up win streak. 568 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 3: So I love how the situational spot kind of aligns 569 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 3: for the Steelers to bounce back here against and again, 570 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 3: this is you know, even with you know, Steelers losing 571 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 3: a linebacker, a couple of linebackers, this is still gonna 572 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 3: be a tough matchup for Josh Allen. 573 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 5: Josh Allen has been inconsistent, you know, from week to week. 574 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 3: Like he played well against San Francisco, he played poorly 575 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 3: against the Chargers, played poorly I think a couple of weeks 576 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 3: ago against the Jets, Like we've seen this kind of 577 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 3: up and down from him. And I think, you know, 578 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 3: in this spot with the focused Steelers team that's a 579 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 3: little bit angry and kind of just a great spot 580 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 3: for their coach now to get his point across. I 581 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 3: think you're gonna see a whole different Steelers team than 582 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 3: the one we kind of saw just sweep walking through 583 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 3: those last two primetime games. 584 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 4: I have a lot on this game. The one thing 585 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 4: I will say, the Bills defense is definitely trending in 586 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 4: the right direction. During the week, they made some scheme 587 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: changes the way that they're using some of their linebackers. 588 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 4: Edmonds are lighting in more outside. They're being more aggressive 589 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 4: with aj Klein. Now they have Matt Milano back, which 590 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 4: is just huge across the board. Johnson, their slot is 591 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 4: playing a little better. They don't have Josh Norman in 592 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: there any longer, Levi Wallace is in There's just a 593 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 4: lot of pieces that are playing well. Some of their 594 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 4: defensive linemen are playing better, so they cleaned some things 595 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 4: up on the defensive side of the ball during the bye. 596 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 4: The offensive line is playing well of late. I mean, 597 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 4: the Bills have looked good of late. But there's no 598 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 4: doubt that this is, you know, a direct overreaction to 599 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 4: what happened on the same night last week. You know, 600 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 4: you saw the Bills look so good against the forty 601 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 4: nine Ers and then the Steelers lose to Washington. So 602 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 4: on the surface is a by low Sell high spot 603 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 4: that is creating line value on the Steelers. But you 604 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 4: have to keep in mind the Steelers, this is our 605 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 4: third game in eleven days. That's brutal. You mentioned Robert Spalane, 606 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 4: another linebacker that's her Bush has already done hate Joe 607 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 4: eight in their corner. He's hurt. I don't know if 608 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 4: he can go Nelson their other corner. He's hurt. So 609 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 4: this is a really banged up defense that has played 610 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 4: one of the easiest schedules in the NFL. They've also 611 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 4: benefited from a league leading twenty three turnovers, part of 612 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 4: which is because they've played so many backup quarterbacks. And 613 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 4: I mean Brian Dable for the Bills has just been amazing, 614 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 4: by the way, and the Bills lead the league in 615 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 4: third down conversion percentage. That's gonna be a battle in 616 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 4: this game the Steelers, just like there's gonna be some 617 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 4: potential wind in this game. The Steelers can't run the ball. 618 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 4: It is a huge issue and I've been saying it 619 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 4: all year. I mean Pitt run blocking. Let's take a 620 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,239 Speaker 4: look at PFF their starting offensive lineman. Out of one 621 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 4: hundred and eighty three qualified offensive lineman, this is where 622 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 4: they rank their respective rankings out of one hundred and 623 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 4: eighty three offensive linean, run blocking, one hundred and seventy first, 624 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 4: one hundred and sixty second, one hundred and sixtieth, one 625 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 4: hundred and second, one hundred and twenty seventh. They dont 626 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 4: have a single offensive lineman in the top one hundred 627 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 4: and run blocking. They have the lowest expected rushing yards 628 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 4: per attempt in the league. Their offensive line is thirtieth 629 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 4: and adjusted line yards. I mean, it's bad, and they're 630 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 4: number one of the Justin Zacharate on offense because Ben 631 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 4: just gets rid of the ball so quick. It's just 632 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 4: these seven eight yard passes. That's hard to sustain drives, 633 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 4: especially when you're dropping seven eight balls a game as 634 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 4: they are right now. You would expect some regression there 635 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 4: with the drops, but it's hard to move up and 636 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 4: down the field. There's no exposedness. Pittsburgh twenty ninth and 637 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 4: explosive play rate Buffalo top five in that department, and 638 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 4: Pitts aggressive d They can give up big plays, especially 639 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 4: their secondaries banged up and Buffalo where they've been most 640 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 4: vulnerable is against the run and giving up explosive runs. 641 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 4: That's not Pittsburgh's game at all. So there's a bunch 642 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 4: of things to be worried about with Pittsburgh. And it's crazy. 643 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 4: You were with Pittsburgh last week against Washington. You were 644 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 4: playing them live to win, and then this week we 645 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 4: were telling everyone Pittsburgh's overrated because of their offense and 646 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 4: now their defense is banged up. But at the end 647 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 4: of the day, I've preached it all the time. This 648 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 4: is the classic Tomlin spot. 649 00:32:58,320 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 3: Yes he is. 650 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 4: Like, think about their last couple of games. They played 651 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 4: the Ravens backups. How flat were they they played Washington? 652 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 4: How flat were they even against Jacksonville they were it 653 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 4: was like zero zero through. We know how bad Jake 654 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 4: Lowton is now, they just come out flat for these 655 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 4: spots where their their favorites. He's the least profitable coach 656 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 4: as a double digit favorite in our database over the 657 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 4: past twenty years. But Tomlin as a road dog against 658 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 4: winning teams seventeen and five against the spread seventy seven 659 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 4: point three percent, covering by an average is six points 660 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 4: per game. That's Brady after a loss. Type numbers number 661 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 4: one of one hundred and twenty four Coach Interaction laps 662 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 4: database fifteen and seven straight up in those games. That's 663 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 4: as an underdog on the road against a team over 664 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 4: five hundred. He's fifteen and seven straight up in those games. 665 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 4: So it's a raw ro spot. Off the loss, we're 666 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 4: getting disrespected now, so the Steelers will be fired up 667 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 4: for this one. There could be I mentioned, there could 668 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 4: be wins, so keep an eye on that. I keep 669 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 4: going back in fourth on this. I do think that 670 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 4: the line is a little a little overvalued, and there's 671 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 4: there's value in in Pittsburgh. And I've tried to adjust 672 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 4: for the injuries in the situation and the matchup, and 673 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 4: there's still some value in Pittsburgh here. It's a good 674 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 4: tease teas piece still, So if you want to tease Pittsburgh, 675 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 4: which has come across the two and a half, you 676 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 4: tease them up to eight and a half. Perfect spot. 677 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 3: I wish they would just use like you know, they 678 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 3: they signed one of the best fullbacks in the league, 679 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 3: uh in Derek Watt, who's uh TJ's brother and JJ's brother. 680 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 4: Derek. 681 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 3: They have him, they have like a fullback, and they 682 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 3: have you know, Vance McDonald who's a blocking tight and 683 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 3: they never make their third tight end active, so they're 684 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 3: just completely uncommitted to the run. I would like to 685 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 3: see them just activate that third tight end and at least, 686 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 3: you know, give opposing defense is something to think about, 687 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: because you've seen this. You know running is not all 688 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 3: just okay. Our line is terrible. We can't get pushed, 689 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 3: we can't run. We saw the Giants last week, and 690 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 3: the Giants don't have a great offensive line. 691 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:56,959 Speaker 5: The Steelers, the Seahawks have been. 692 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 3: Great and run defense. But what did the Giants do. 693 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 5: They just went big. They went three tight ends. 694 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 3: They know Evan Ingram is not gonna and that line 695 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 3: is not going to be able to box Seattle one 696 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 3: on one. But you put three tight ends in heavy 697 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 3: formation there, it's a whole different game. 698 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 5: And I just wish Pittsburgh would do some of that. 699 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 3: I think it would really help their offense instead of 700 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 3: because you're not only just doing the same thing every 701 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 3: time with these short passes, but you're not even giving 702 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 3: the defense really anything, you know, much to think about, 703 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 3: because even if you are going you know, it's a 704 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 3: different personnel group, it's still kind of the same formation. 705 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 3: It's still it's just Eric he brought instead of Ray, 706 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 3: Ray McLeod or or James Washington. So I do think 707 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 3: the Steelers and Randy Fickner need to switch it up. 708 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 3: But I do like the I like the situational spot 709 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 3: for Pittsburgh. I do think the Drops will regress. And again, 710 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 3: I just have Buffalo. I also knock them down a 711 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,240 Speaker 3: little for first strength and schedule. So it's really that simple. 712 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 3: It's just about about two and a half, you know, 713 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 3: about three points of value for me on the on 714 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 3: the line. 715 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 4: Be afraid of the Bills though, and the Bills are 716 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 4: gonna have a sight. 717 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 3: And oh I love the Bills. Sean mcgermott is like, 718 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: you know, Shaw mcgurmam. 719 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 4: Staff is awesome there. Yeah, he's up there. 720 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 3: This is not about Brian Davel. 721 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 4: He's gonna get a head coaching job. 722 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 3: Kind of jumped at the top of the list. I 723 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 3: think I'm hearing a lot of people say he's the 724 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 3: top now. 725 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,240 Speaker 4: He I mean, he just carved up Robert Solid last week. Now, granted, 726 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 4: the Bills did benefit from a bunch of corners. Richard 727 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 4: Sherman was back, but a couple of the other San 728 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 4: France corners were oute and they had like a fourth 729 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 4: string in the slot and they just abused San Frand. 730 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 4: But yeah, he's that whole staff's doing a tremendous job. 731 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 4: And Josh Allen, if he can just be more consistent, 732 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 4: as you said, look out all right for my second 733 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 4: pick in the Sunday six pack and the fourth overall, 734 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 4: this is bad, This is really bad. I'm going with 735 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 4: the Chicago Bears and Mitch Bortles plus one and a 736 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 4: half at bet MGM at home against the Houston Texans. 737 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 4: I can't believe him doing it. 738 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: You've just been bortled. 739 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 4: But again, this is a week where I didn't have 740 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 4: a ton of edges. I make Chicago a small favorite here, 741 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 4: and there's some things I do like about this matchup. 742 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 4: Number one, keep in mind that there's potentially twenty to 743 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 4: thirty maybe more mile on hour wind gusts all day 744 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 4: in Chicago for this game, which is going to make 745 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 4: the running games even more important. I like the way 746 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 4: that the Bears used Montgomery and Patterson last week and 747 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 4: kind of mixing them in, and Montgomery has been playing 748 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 4: well lately. They'll be able to run on Houston. Houston's 749 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 4: defensive line thirty first and adjusted lineyards Houston. By the way, 750 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 4: they have the thirty second ranked rush offensea and the 751 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 4: twenty sixth ranked run defense bears of a top five 752 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 4: run defense, and Houston defensive line is trash trash, I mean, 753 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,879 Speaker 4: just they have nothing up the middle. The linebackers aren't 754 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 4: playing well. And on the offensive line, I mean, the 755 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 4: interior is so weak. I think kicks and they can 756 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 4: get interior pressure there. Right tackle Titus Howard, he can 757 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 4: be exploited Khalil Macket in practice today, but I expect 758 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 4: him to play. He could have a big day. And look, 759 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 4: this Texans seems just not the same without will Fuller. 760 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,760 Speaker 4: I know Deshaun Watson's playing at such a high level, 761 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 4: but we've talked about how important will Fuller is to 762 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 4: that offense. And on the defensive side, they had no 763 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 4: corners left. Their starting corners this week are going to 764 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 4: be Phillip Gaines, I mean, and Hargreaves, who's one of 765 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 4: the worst corners in you look at PFF coverage grades 766 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 4: games eighty seventh out of one hundred and forty seven 767 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 4: qualified corners, har Greaves one hundred and thirty fourth. Roby, 768 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 4: who was their shadow guy a lot of it for 769 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 4: a big part of the season, was twenty first. So 770 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 4: I think Alan Robinson could have a big impact here. 771 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 4: I like the way the Bears are using Cole Comet now. 772 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 5: Yeah instead of Jimmy Graham. 773 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 4: Yes, he's getting Jimmy Graham out of there. So there's 774 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 4: some things that the Bears offense I think have done 775 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 4: better of late. And I mean basically what this comest douta. 776 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 4: I mean the Bears have lost six in a row. 777 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 4: I'm buying. I don't think i've I did bet them 778 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 4: against the Bucks. I think that might be the only 779 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 4: time I bet them this year. 780 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 3: You called, you called the exact ending. I think it 781 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,959 Speaker 3: was like you called, like a winning field go by. 782 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 4: The special teams. It was a bit fortunate, but we 783 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 4: got we got the cover. But I'm gonna go. Look, 784 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 4: this is I'm buying Low and the Bears here and 785 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 4: the Texans. I think what's maybe driving this line is 786 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 4: it's like Mitch Trubisky versus Deshaun Watts, Mitch Bortles versus 787 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson, and it's the revenge game. You know, Deshaun 788 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 4: Watson came out and said bereyde Pace like snubbed him 789 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 4: and didn't talk to him, and you know they ended 790 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 4: up drafting Mitch Trubisky ahead of him, and Holmes is 791 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 4: everyone had started a billion times and everyone's like, all right, 792 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 4: well this is gonna be Deshaun Watsons revenge you I'm 793 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 4: going anti narrative here, and what does that mean? Like 794 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson's gonna try harder, like he doesn't try hard 795 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 4: every Sunday like, and it actually if anything could work 796 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 4: against him, if he's like if he does go out 797 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 4: there and just try to, you know, instead of just 798 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 4: making the smart play like he wants to be Superman 799 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 4: in twenty to thirty mile an hour win gus against 800 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 4: a good defense, and maybe he has a bad forced 801 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 4: thrower two more than he normally does. I don't think 802 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 4: this is like DeShawn watson revenge game, right, So now 803 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 4: he just he's like, all right, I'm gonna try a 804 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 4: little harder ThisDay. That's nonsense to me. So I think 805 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 4: the Bears a slight favorite here, so in which we 806 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 4: trust plus one and a half pray for me. 807 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny because you know, we talked about this 808 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 3: off air, and I kind of laughed when he made 809 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 3: it because I think you kind of expressed this similar 810 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 3: just like I can't believe I'm doing it, And I'm like, 811 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 3: I'm not even mad at you, because I too have 812 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 3: the Bears projected as a slight favorite, which is very odd, 813 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 3: very rare, but uh yeah, I have him by favored 814 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 3: by a half a point. And you know me, I'm 815 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 3: usually if there's any kind of kind of discrepancy and 816 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 3: I'm usually just gonna go with Watson here, But in 817 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 3: a windy situation with a depleted supporting cast in Will Fuller, 818 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 3: It's just it's a tough spot. And the Bears, by 819 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 3: the way, are number one in DV away against number 820 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 3: one receivers, So now you take away Brandon Cooks and 821 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 3: you're left with Chad Hansen, Stephen Kiki qt what had 822 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 3: a good game and Hanson did too, but and you're 823 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 3: kind of throwing to you know, tight ends in backs 824 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 3: and David Johnson. He's averaging four yards per carry for 825 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 3: the first time since twenty sixteen, and they're still ast 826 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 3: and rushing. So yeah, I'm not too bullish on this offense. 827 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 3: I think this is an under game as well. I 828 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 3: think this is a you know, Houston had a fast 829 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 3: start against the Coats, we still got that under to 830 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 3: hit somehow, because there was like three three points in 831 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 3: the second half, So you know, I think a lot 832 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: of people would think, you know, second half under maybe, 833 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 3: but I actually like the first half under in this 834 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 3: one Matt Naggy in his tenure with the Bears, the 835 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,280 Speaker 3: first half under when the line is twenty three year lower, 836 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 3: so essentially expected low scoring game. The first half unders 837 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 3: twenty eight and nine and it's seven and three this season, 838 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 3: so I think that we won't see much scoring and 839 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 3: that's not the way Houston is going to win the game. 840 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 2: Mostly Chicago. 841 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 3: For my third and the fifth overall pick of the 842 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 3: week fourteen Sunday six pack, this is ugly in a 843 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 3: whole different way, but don't usually do this, but I 844 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 3: couldn't pass it up, especially since we're getting to probably 845 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 3: the end of his tenure. So I'm betting against Adam 846 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 3: Gase Seattle minus thirteen at bet MGM. I just love 847 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 3: the boundspot for Seattle against Adam Gase against these Jets, 848 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 3: who I think you look at the results last week 849 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 3: and you say Seattle's trending down. They got backdoored against Philly. 850 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 3: Then they come out and they slew straight up to 851 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 3: the Giants. Well, and I talked about this in my article. 852 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 3: The Giants are quickly establishing themselves and this speaks to 853 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 3: kind of you know, Joe Judge and Patrick Graham and 854 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 3: the Belichick coaching tree and all that. But the Giants 855 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 3: are establishing themselves as one of the best game plan. 856 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:29,359 Speaker 5: Teams in the week. 857 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 3: Like they have no business even being as competitive as 858 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 3: they are, but their game plans have been excellent weekend 859 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 3: and week out. The Jets just fired their defensive coordinator. Now, 860 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 3: in some ways that that's good for them, but it 861 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,319 Speaker 3: doesn't exactly help things in the short term, especially the 862 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 3: way I think it would if you know, you fired 863 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 3: Adam Gase. This is a Jets team that's not going 864 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 3: to get pressure, that can't cover that. 865 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 5: You know, it's it's not going to be schemed. 866 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 3: As well as for example, the Giants last week, or 867 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 3: even the Eagles under Schwartz the week before, and then 868 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 3: on the on the other side of the ball, this 869 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 3: is still the Jets offense. I mean, the Jets offense 870 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 3: finally got something going against the Raiders that was, you know, 871 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 3: one of the weeks worst defenses. 872 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 5: Seattle used to be one of the Wag's worst defenses. 873 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:13,240 Speaker 5: They're improving. 874 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 3: And by the way, Jamal Adams probably everywhere in his game, 875 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 3: you know, prevent spot for him. But Seattle has improved 876 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 3: massively on defense since you kind of you got Adams 877 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 3: and you got done Web. You had given up twenty 878 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 3: four to the Rams, you give up you know, under 879 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 3: twenty to the Eagles, you give up even in the 880 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 3: loss of the Giants, you give up seventeen that's kind 881 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 3: of expected, but overall, and then you give up what 882 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 3: was it, twenty one to the Cardinals. So this Seahawks 883 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 3: defense has not been a defense that's now getting blasted 884 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 3: the way it was earlier in the year. And I 885 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 3: don't think the Jets really have the the personnelity take 886 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 3: advantage of that either. So and then on top of that, 887 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 3: you're getting the situational spot. Last week I talked about 888 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 3: this that was one of the few Adam Gay spots 889 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 3: where you actually want to back Adam Gase. I think 890 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: he was like six and two coming off a loss. Again, 891 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:04,240 Speaker 3: it's a non divisional opponent at home. Well, in this spot, 892 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 3: this is when you want to fade Gase. And it 893 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 3: seems counterintuitive because usually he's not the spreads you want 894 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 3: to bet. But Adam Gase as a road underdog plus 895 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 3: five and a half or more five and eighteen against 896 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 3: the spread. That's a twenty two percent cover rate, which 897 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 3: means the opponent's covering seventy eight percent of the time 898 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 3: four and one this season, and the numbers the percentage 899 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 3: holds just as high when you look at double digit 900 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 3: spreads and then Pete Carroll and russ Off a loss 901 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 3: twenty five and thirteen sixty six percent against the spread 902 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 3: two and one this season. So just a big bounce 903 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 3: back spot for Seattle. I have this over two touchdowns 904 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 3: and so I like the thirteen here about MGM. 905 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 5: Be sure to shop around. 906 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 3: I've seen some thirteen and a half out there as well, 907 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 3: but I think this is a Seattle smash spot. 908 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 4: Brandon Shelter tackle might be the most important player in 909 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 4: the league this week because last week all the all 910 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 4: Seattle's tackles got hurt and Chad Wheeler came in. That 911 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 4: was the worst tackle performance I've ever seen in my 912 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 4: entire life. In that fourth he looked like he never 913 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 4: played offensive line in his life. It looked like they 914 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 4: just went and grabbed the hot dog guy on the 915 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 4: street and said you'll come in here and play. 916 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 3: He used to. 917 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 4: I think he was the Giants tackle for Eli Manning 918 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 4: that last year too. The Seals offensive line was bad. 919 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 4: Wilson was really bad that game. And look, I I'm 920 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 4: not a fan of laying double digits in the NFL, 921 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 4: but I will say that if you're going to do it, 922 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 4: you because double digit dogs in the NFL historically have 923 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,799 Speaker 4: been profitable. But the Jets, they buck mosts. They're two 924 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 4: and nine against the spread. It's a double digit underdog 925 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 4: since the start of twenty sixteen, two and nine only 926 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 4: the Jets. The only thing that would concern me here 927 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 4: is it's the Seahawks. Can they win by more than 928 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:09,279 Speaker 4: one possession? There's like a law of NFL betting that 929 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,440 Speaker 4: they have to play one possession games every week and 930 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 4: it always comes down to the wire. But maybe the 931 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 4: Jets are just that bad. So yeah, it'll be interesting 932 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 4: saying what the Jets defense does. Are they gonna change 933 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 4: up everything, They're gonna play a lot of zone like 934 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 4: the Giants did. But this defense is no good. I mean, 935 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 4: Russell Wilson should bounce back here. So I don't hate it. 936 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 4: I make it close to fourteen, and I'm not certainly 937 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 4: not betting the Jets here, and it's fucked up, but 938 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:43,840 Speaker 4: that is the way it is. For my third pick 939 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 4: and the final pick of the Sunday six pack, I 940 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 4: have Mitch Bortle sandwiched in between Tom Brady, who's gonna 941 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 4: go down as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, 942 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,919 Speaker 4: and Patrick Mahomes, who might go down as the greatest 943 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 4: quarterback of all time. For my third pick, I'll go 944 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:03,320 Speaker 4: the Kansas City Chiefs seven at that MGM at the Dolphins. 945 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 4: First of all, people are saying the Chiefs are going 946 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 4: down to Miami and they have the Saints on decks, 947 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 4: they're gonna be looking at what the fuck is that? 948 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 2: Though? 949 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 4: This this game is way more important to the Chiefs. 950 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 4: If they're gonna lose a game the rest of the way, 951 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,760 Speaker 4: you would want to You would rather lose the Saints. 952 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 4: You'd rather lose an NFC game. They're trying to get 953 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 4: the one seed, and right now the Steelers have the 954 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 4: advantage because they lost an ns to an NFC team, 955 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,760 Speaker 4: But the Chiefs can still get there if the Steelers 956 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 4: drop another game, and this game is important to them. 957 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 4: They're not looking ahead of the Saints everybody. I've heard 958 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 4: that a bunch, and like what, the Chiefs have come 959 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 4: out a little flat, and I think they have had 960 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 4: a little Super Bowl hangover and they've you know, I 961 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 4: think in like seven seven games this year, they've been 962 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 4: either trailing or leading by less than three at the half. 963 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 4: But I just think this is a great matchup for 964 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,760 Speaker 4: the Chiefs. I get the Dolphins defense has been great, 965 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,360 Speaker 4: and this is the same defense that you're gonna see 966 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 4: in Baltimore. 967 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 2: Right. 968 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 4: They have good corners on the outside, and Howard and Jones. 969 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 4: They blitz a ton, They're gonna play a lot, They're 970 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 4: gonna play as much cover zeros as anybody in the 971 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 4: league cover one. It's the Bill Belichick Tree. 972 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 5: Actually want to ask you about that. 973 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 3: Do you do you think they really will because the 974 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:23,800 Speaker 3: way that year, yeah, right is sit back. 975 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's but here's the thing, that's all that's 976 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,719 Speaker 4: their identity. It's the same problem that the Raivens have. 977 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,399 Speaker 4: Now if I'll get to if they don't, I don't 978 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 4: think that they should. But that's the only way they're 979 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 4: able to generate pressure too, And that's just just what 980 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 4: they do. They blitz and they play a ton of 981 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 4: men on the outside, which is a nightmare against Patrick Moons. 982 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:42,879 Speaker 4: We know that you don't blitz Patrick wan. You can't 983 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 4: blitz he just goes. He just runs backwards and then 984 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 4: throws it further and you can't just you can't cover 985 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 4: their receivers long enough. And you know, the Dolphins defense 986 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 4: has been great, but it's been great against you know, 987 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 4: average slightly above below average bad offenses. They do lead 988 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 4: the NFL and third down defense and it's been a 989 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 4: good defense, but their second in the NFL and turnovers, 990 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 4: there's some regression coming there. They've been very fortunate in 991 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 4: special teams. I know they have a good special teams, 992 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 4: you know, but they've been lucky in that department as well. 993 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 4: And guess what they benefit of ton turnovers. Mahomes doesn't 994 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 4: turn the ball over. And so I think this is 995 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 4: go back to when the Dolphins played the Bills. Go 996 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 4: back to when and you know, like this defense can 997 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 4: be got and when the Chiefs have played similar defenses, 998 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 4: the Ravens, the Bucks, the blitz play out a man, 999 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 4: they've carved him up, and it's Toua on the other side. 1000 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,760 Speaker 4: It's a huge, huge quarterback mismatch. I know, toa look better. 1001 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 4: Last week it was against the Bengals. He's still and 1002 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 4: I know he's dealing with the handager. I'm assuming he 1003 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 4: starts and plays for this because I do have a 1004 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 4: downgrade between Fitzpatrick and him, and I have tour right now. 1005 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 4: Granted as the thirty fifth ranked passer out of forty 1006 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:07,800 Speaker 4: quarterbacks with at least one hundred dropbacks this year, he's 1007 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 4: basically almost dead, even with Carson Wentz. 1008 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 3: Where's there's Jamie Hurts A oh, he doesn't have a 1009 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 3: hundred now. 1010 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:18,919 Speaker 4: It Hurts doesn't have one hundred. I don't. I don't 1011 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,880 Speaker 4: know where he would be. It's like it's in the 1012 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,240 Speaker 4: territory of like Lwton Darnold. 1013 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 3: Where's Dalton? 1014 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 4: Dalton is like I think twenty ninth. 1015 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,280 Speaker 5: That's too high, too high, and. 1016 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 4: I mean Dalton. If you watch Dalton, then you watch 1017 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 4: some of these other quarterbacks. He's he looks better than 1018 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:42,399 Speaker 4: some of them at like till your last night. Yeah, 1019 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 4: but I'm just saying he's at least doing that. 1020 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been ugly with it, Yes. 1021 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 4: It's been ugly. So I mean I think that he's 1022 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 4: gonna make mistakes, and I think this is a great 1023 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 4: matchup for the Chiefs. And then look if the Dolphins 1024 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,480 Speaker 4: do decide to just drop back, you know what the 1025 00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 4: Chiefs are gonna do. They're gonna grind all the way 1026 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 4: down the field and hand it off. And the Biomi's 1027 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 4: run defense is horrendous, horrendous, So they're just gonna run 1028 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 4: all the way down the field and I don't think 1029 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 4: TUA can keep up. I know that the Chiefs defense 1030 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 4: has issues, but they're gonna blit them, force them into 1031 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:19,239 Speaker 4: some mistakes and I think the Chiefs role here. So 1032 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 4: give me Kansas City minus seven. 1033 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is also one of the premier spots for 1034 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 3: Andy Reid going on the road eighty three and fifty five, 1035 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:35,880 Speaker 3: sixty percent against the spread. Andy Reid, you know, just 1036 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 3: with k C because that that's his entire career, But 1037 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 3: with k C thirty nine, twenty one and one on 1038 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 3: the road, sixty five percent, that's he's almost doubling up 1039 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 3: against the spread on the road. That's that's absurd. Now, 1040 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 3: this year's three and three, but probably just due for 1041 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 3: some regression. And then Andy Reid with case when the 1042 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,359 Speaker 3: opponent is on their second straight or more at home, 1043 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 3: it's fourteen and seven again to spread sixty seven percent. 1044 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 3: So this is really you know spots. Andy Reid has 1045 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,320 Speaker 3: excelled at Now Brian Flores is making a name for 1046 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 3: himself as well. The one thing with him is when 1047 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 3: he's been a favorite or a dog by less than 1048 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 3: eleven so you know, kind of throwing out some of 1049 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 3: those early Dolphins games where they were like twenty point underdogs. 1050 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 3: He's now thirteen and six against the spread, so he's 1051 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,719 Speaker 3: he's you know, coached his team well. But I think 1052 00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:24,359 Speaker 3: this is where he kind of meets his match. And 1053 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 3: Andy Reid though he has had success against Belichick, so 1054 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 3: you know, why wouldn't he have success against Flora That. Yeah, 1055 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 3: I agree. I think it's a big, big quarterback mismatch. 1056 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 7: Take to the Pae. 1057 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 3: So that is going to wrap it for this week's 1058 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 3: Sunday six pack. To recap, Stucky went with the Tampa 1059 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 3: Bay Bucks minus six and a half at home against 1060 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 3: the Vikings, the Bears plus one and a half at 1061 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 3: home against the Houston Texans, and the Chiefs seven point 1062 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:05,440 Speaker 3: favorites on the road against the Dolphins. I went with 1063 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 3: the Falcons two and a half point favorites at the Chargers. 1064 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 3: The Steelers two and a half point dogs at Buffalo 1065 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 3: and Seattle Mayas thirteen at home against the Jets. Going 1066 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 3: to go straight into our coaches pep talk this weekend. 1067 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 3: Today's coaches pep Talk comes to us from the nineteen 1068 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 3: fifty five movie Mister Roberts, and we're dedicating it. 1069 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 5: It's Anthony Wennon those charges. 1070 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:31,759 Speaker 4: You guys are wonderful to me. 1071 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 7: I don't mention it now, think you almost deserve it. 1072 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 4: What do you really think of me?

Next up, we have our 1086 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 3: favorite over under plays of the week. Take us away 1087 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 3: with the total. 1088 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,839 Speaker 4: I was gonna go with the Chargers Falcons over, which 1089 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:36,359 Speaker 4: I do like and did bet, but totals have been 1090 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 4: hot for weeks, and mainly because I've been going with 1091 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 4: a consistent theme, and I'll go back to that here 1092 00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 4: and I'm going with the Seattle Seahawks and New York 1093 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 4: Jets under forty five and a half at BETAMGM talked 1094 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 4: about it at nauseum over the past few weeks. Seahawks 1095 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 4: defense is and they're getting more conservative on offense. They've 1096 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 4: had some injuries in the offensive line. I'm afraid Jamal 1097 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 4: Adams is going to have two defensive touchdowns the one 1098 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,879 Speaker 4: thing in the revenge game for him. But the Jets 1099 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 4: offense stakes, they're dealing with some injuries as well. I 1100 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 4: think that the Seahawks come out, they run all over 1101 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 4: the Jets. Russell Wilson in a couple of big plays, 1102 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:24,799 Speaker 4: Seattle shuts down the Jets offense, and Seattle goes under again. 1103 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 4: They flipped from pure overteam to a peer under team. 1104 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:29,399 Speaker 4: So back to the Seahawks under. 1105 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 5: For me, the Jets. 1106 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 3: It's really you know, when you look at their games, 1107 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 3: it's it's a question of are they going to be 1108 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 3: able to kind of live up to their side of 1109 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 3: the bargain. And you look at who they played last week, 1110 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 3: the Raiders, that's the team that the Jets can move 1111 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 3: the ball on this week. Is crazy as it sounds. 1112 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:46,840 Speaker 3: I don't think the Jets will have much offensive success 1113 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 3: just based on what I see how the Seahawks defense 1114 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 3: over the past month. So I don't hate it. 1115 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 5: I think the one thing you have to be. 1116 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 3: Careful with is if the Seahawks, you know, do look 1117 00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 3: at that Jets defensive line. That's kind of their strength 1118 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:00,879 Speaker 3: is defending the right and they've given up like one 1119 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:01,800 Speaker 3: or two big run. 1120 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 5: Plays that have inflated their yard per carry. 1121 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 3: But if you look at their justin lineyards, there's still 1122 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 3: a very good against running backs. So that's the one 1123 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:11,800 Speaker 3: thing you got to hope the Seahawks don't, like actually 1124 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 3: decide to go back to that early let Russ cook. 1125 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 3: But even if they do, I think they should have 1126 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 3: no problem kind of pulling away. And at the end 1127 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 3: of the day, I also don't think the Jets will 1128 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 3: score much, so I think you still have a margin 1129 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 3: for error even if the Seahawks go a little more 1130 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 3: pass heavy early. For my total, I am going with 1131 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 3: the most dependable total in the NFL over the past 1132 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 3: year and a half, and one that I think some 1133 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 3: people will be on the other side of because it's 1134 00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 3: a late you're divisional under, but I don't care. I 1135 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 3: think that this is a another great spot based on 1136 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,919 Speaker 3: the defenses, and that is the Titans and Jaguars over 1137 00:57:56,960 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 3: fifty two and a half. The Titans going in Jags, 1138 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 3: you have Derrick Henry, who always you know, gets better 1139 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 3: in December. You have Corey Davis playing well, you have 1140 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:10,880 Speaker 3: a j Brown playing well, Ryan Tannehill the play Action game. 1141 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 3: And then on the other side, the one issue, the 1142 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 3: one where I do have for Jacksonville is Brandon Winder. 1143 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 5: It looks like he's going to be out their center. 1144 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 3: But Jacksonville has been able to score and kind of 1145 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 3: stick with some teams lately. Pittsburgh's really the only one 1146 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 3: they weren't able to have any kind of offense against, 1147 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,280 Speaker 3: and that's even with Mike Glennon. Like Jacksonville's receivers love 1148 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 3: James Robinson, and you know, we saw this Titans defense, 1149 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 3: Like I thought. 1150 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 5: It was improving. 1151 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 3: It had played well, but I mean the display that 1152 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 3: the defense showed in that first half against Cleveland was 1153 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 3: one of the worst defensive performances I've ever seen in 1154 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 3: my life. But this just kind of goes back to 1155 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 3: how these Titans are playing and over this. You know, 1156 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 3: past one and a half years with Ryan Tannehill in 1157 00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 3: that play action game, they are twenty one and four 1158 00:58:58,880 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 3: to the. 1159 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 5: Over only one in four. 1160 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 3: Now, last year they came out they were a surprise 1161 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 3: over team. They say, Okay, this year the market's gonna react. 1162 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 3: Overs have been killing. There's no way they're making these 1163 00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 3: totals for the Titans too low. Titans over is nine 1164 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 3: and two this year with one push. 1165 00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 5: I'm gonna keep going. It's just like Anthony Wynn. 1166 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 3: I'm gonna keep going back to it until they prove 1167 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:24,240 Speaker 3: that they're not that this is not the kind of 1168 00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 3: game script that they are going to playton. 1169 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't hate if this the Then they played 1170 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 4: the first meeting, I think the Titans won thirty three 1171 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,000 Speaker 4: thirty on the last second field goal by Goskowski and 1172 00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 4: the Jags they have one win. They played in seven 1173 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 4: to one possession games. It looks like a feisty team. Yeah, 1174 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:44,560 Speaker 4: the Titans defense is so I mean, the Jags defense 1175 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 4: is terrible. It's a bottom three defense by any no 1176 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:52,680 Speaker 4: matter who you were asking. The Titans defense is horrendous. 1177 00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 4: Then maybe they get a Dory Jackson back in practice 1178 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 4: today that could help get a real pressure. It's just 1179 00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 4: a fake of our imagination. But the Titans. They're allowing 1180 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,600 Speaker 4: teams to score touchdowns on seventy three percent of red 1181 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 4: zone trips at the only the Chiefs are actually worst. Yeah, 1182 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 4: Titans with thirty four. 1183 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,200 Speaker 3: You know why right, because you know they practice against 1184 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:15,600 Speaker 3: their own offense, which scores like eighty percent of the time, 1185 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 3: and it just carries right over to the game. They 1186 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 3: just give up the exact same rate. 1187 01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:20,439 Speaker 5: You know what I mean. 1188 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 4: And they're allowing teams to convert them third downs fifty 1189 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 4: three point five to seven percent of the time. That's incredible, 1190 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 4: dead last NFL. They get no pressure and they can't 1191 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 4: cover on the back end. I mean, it's not going 1192 01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 4: to work in today's NFL. So yeah, I don't disagree 1193 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 4: with you there. 1194 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 3: And uh, just as if anyone's kind of looking to 1195 01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 3: bet the aside in this game. I do expect the 1196 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 3: Titans to rebound in it in the first half. I 1197 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:49,120 Speaker 3: don't know if their defense is good enough to hold 1198 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,400 Speaker 3: them and check the whole game. But if you look 1199 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 3: at Doug Maroone's team since the start of last season, 1200 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 3: they are four and twenty three when it comes to 1201 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 3: winning the first half. So you know, Titans for have 1202 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 3: money line something to look at in this one as well. 1203 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,280 Speaker 3: Those are our favorite total stucky going Seahawk Jets under 1204 01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 3: forty five and a half. I'm going takey Jags over 1205 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 3: fifty two and a half. Make sure you shop for 1206 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 3: the best line. Have also seen some fifty threes out 1207 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 3: there have it over fifty four, so I don't hate 1208 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,160 Speaker 3: the fifty three, but I would prefer, you know, obviously 1209 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 3: getting the lowest number. 1210 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 8: The NFL season is upon us, and our friends at 1211 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 8: BETMGM Sports are offering Action Network podcast listeners a great 1212 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 8: sign up offer.

When you combine two or more 1233 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 3: spread bets or or really you could do it with 1234 01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:36,919 Speaker 3: other bets, but do it with the spread here, each 1235 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 3: bet you get an additional six points in a standard 1236 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 3: six point teaser against towards the spread. So, for example, 1237 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 3: if you're betting an eight point favorite, they become just 1238 01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:50,800 Speaker 3: a two point favorite, and if you're also teasing them 1239 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 3: with an eight point underdog. For example, that underdog becomes 1240 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 3: plus fourteen, so you're getting six points for each leg 1241 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 3: of the bet. Stuck. He has a great content out 1242 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 3: on actionetwork dot com where he explains. 1243 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 5: Exactly how to bet teasers. 1244 01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 3: There are certain key numbers that you're looking to tease 1245 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,920 Speaker 3: the six points through, and this weekend particular, Stuck. I 1246 01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 3: know you have a piece out already that everybody should 1247 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,160 Speaker 3: go check out on Action network dot com or in 1248 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:18,080 Speaker 3: the Action Network app that goes over the what's a 1249 01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 3: pretty large amount of teaser teasing options? Teaser options for 1250 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 3: this week fourteen slaying games. 1251 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, a ton of options if you haven't checked out 1252 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 4: the piece. And as if you assume Lin's get more 1253 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 4: efficient as the year goes on, and with increased efficiency 1254 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 4: in a betting market, an NFL betting market, teasers become 1255 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 4: even more valuable then. So I think it's a really 1256 01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 4: good week to use teasers if you can cross the 1257 01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 4: three and seven, which you can do with a number 1258 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,680 Speaker 4: of different games. I have a couple options out there. 1259 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 4: I'll throw two out there. I'll go with the Giants, 1260 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 4: teasing them from plus two and a half up to 1261 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 4: plus eight and a half. And I'll go with the 1262 01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 4: Raiders plus two and a half up to plus eight 1263 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:01,920 Speaker 4: and a half. I make both of those lines under 1264 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:03,560 Speaker 4: two and a half, So there's value just in the 1265 01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 4: lines anyway per my number. So teasing them up through three, four, six, 1266 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:11,440 Speaker 4: and seven works for me. And eight eight's now growing 1267 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,600 Speaker 4: in importance because teams go for two in different situations 1268 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 4: late when they're down fourteen to score a touchdown. So 1269 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 4: I'm getting over eight in both of these. The Giants, 1270 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 4: all they do outside of that San Frang game is 1271 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 4: they play close games and they're competitive. They're well coached. 1272 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:30,040 Speaker 4: The Cardinals have flaws on defense. I'm not sure Kyler 1273 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:31,960 Speaker 4: Murray is all the way right. The one thing that 1274 01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 4: scares me in this game while I'm not playing it 1275 01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 4: straight and I'd rather tease it. I mentioned the Giants 1276 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 4: red zone offense. Some of these things in small sample sizes, 1277 01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 4: there's a lot of noise and you can see regression 1278 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 4: in red zone numbers. But the Giants red zone offense 1279 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 4: is they're only scoring touch ons like forty eight point 1280 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 4: five percent of their trips. That's thirty first the NFL, 1281 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 4: only in front of the Jets. The Cards are number 1282 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 4: one in the NFL seventy six percent. So why do 1283 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 4: I think it's just not noise and variants. Well, Kyler 1284 01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 4: Murray and his legs, the Cardinals running game, they have 1285 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:09,160 Speaker 4: you know, Hopkins, and they have talented possession receivers. There's 1286 01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 4: a lot of things to like about the Cardinals offense 1287 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:15,240 Speaker 4: with Murray creating and that spread you out run game 1288 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 4: in the red zone. So that could end up being 1289 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 4: the difference. But I still like the Giants to keep 1290 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 4: this close within one possession. And then the Raiders. Look, 1291 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 4: the Colts have injuries on the offensive line, particularly at tackle, 1292 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 4: and I think Philip Rivers, yeah, you never know. In 1293 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:37,920 Speaker 4: this foot he was left in a boot. He's not 1294 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 4: stepping into all his throws. From what I'm seeing, that 1295 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:45,560 Speaker 4: might cost him a pick or two. And the Colts 1296 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:47,960 Speaker 4: offense is just yeah, I mean just no matter where 1297 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:52,160 Speaker 4: you look, it's just not a great offense. And I 1298 01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:55,800 Speaker 4: know the Raiders aren't a great defense, but I think 1299 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 4: the Raiders also can move the ball. Their car is 1300 01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 4: really good about finding salt pockets and zones, and the 1301 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 4: Colts play a ton of zone defense. You could have 1302 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs and Trent Brown back, which will would obviously help, 1303 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,760 Speaker 4: but even if not, I still like teasing this up here. 1304 01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 4: The Raiders, the third down offense is just so much 1305 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 4: more efficient. I think that they're going to be able 1306 01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 4: to sustain drives with more ease than the Colts. For 1307 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 4: twenty ninth in the NFL and third down percentage, the 1308 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 4: Raiders are third. Derek Card you have to give him credit. 1309 01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 4: He's playing at a really high level. You have that 1310 01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:30,440 Speaker 4: stinker a couple of weeks ago. But I like the 1311 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 4: matchup of this Raiders offense against the Colts zone defense, 1312 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 4: and I think there's a lot of issues on the 1313 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 4: Colts offense. So I think the Raiders can certainly keep 1314 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 4: this within a touchdown and then if not, you have 1315 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:45,640 Speaker 4: you know, Derek Carr and company are down fourteen late, 1316 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 4: he can go down and get you a touchdown to 1317 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 4: get into this number. So give me the Raiders and 1318 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 4: the Giants to at least keep this keep each game 1319 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:53,840 Speaker 4: within one possession. 1320 01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 5: Yeah. The Giants, yeah, I love them as a teaser. 1321 01:06:57,160 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 3: They have lost by more than one possession just twice 1322 01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 3: all year. Once was to that Steelers team, and then 1323 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 3: that was in Week one. They cover teams there, right, 1324 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 3: and then you would have the big loss to the Niners, 1325 01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 3: and kind of that just their worst game of the year. 1326 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,720 Speaker 3: So since Week four, every game, every game that they've 1327 01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:19,479 Speaker 3: lost has been eight points or less. So you tease 1328 01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 3: them here, you get to eight and a half. And 1329 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 3: you know, keep in mind that Cliff Kingsbury as a 1330 01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:29,560 Speaker 3: straight up, you know favorite, has actually lost. 1331 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:30,240 Speaker 5: More time than he's one. 1332 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:34,400 Speaker 3: He's three and five as a you know, straight up 1333 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 3: moneyline favorite. So the Giants, they what they do is 1334 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:43,760 Speaker 3: they game plan extremely well against teams and that's why 1335 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,080 Speaker 3: you see them keeping games close, even though their talent 1336 01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 3: level and even some of their underlying metrics would suggest 1337 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 3: that they shouldn't be in these games the way they 1338 01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 3: are so like them and then I already mentioned it, 1339 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 3: but you talk about it like the Bucks, teasing them 1340 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 3: down to a half point, essentially picking them to win 1341 01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 3: against vulnerable Vikings teams. 1342 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:04,840 Speaker 5: So Giants Bucks for me, all right, those are our teasers. 1343 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 3: Stuck's going Giants Raiders, I'm going Giants Bucks. Now it's 1344 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 3: time for our money line underdog. 1345 01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 1: Parlay, turning good weekends into great weekends. It's time for 1346 01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 1: the money line parlay. 1347 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 3: All right? Is that who you got Jets almost almost 1348 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:28,760 Speaker 3: came through from you, athlete. But you know, Creig Williams. 1349 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 4: I'm going with the Cincinnati Bengals. Looks like they're about 1350 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 4: three and a half point home underdogs to the Cowboys. 1351 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:36,320 Speaker 4: I don't see a ton of value in the line, 1352 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:40,559 Speaker 4: but this is a good underdog money line to take 1353 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:45,759 Speaker 4: because it's a great spot. The Cowboys season essentially ended 1354 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:50,559 Speaker 4: last night Tuesday night in Baltimore with a loss, and 1355 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:55,800 Speaker 4: now they're on an extremely short week, four day week 1356 01:08:56,240 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 4: and go from Baltimore to play lowly Cincinnati. I know, 1357 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 4: I'm not going to sit here and brag anything about Cincinnati. 1358 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 4: I mean, their quarterback. I mean, there's nothing for me 1359 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:09,400 Speaker 4: to say. This is just the Cowboys might come out 1360 01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 4: here and lay a complete egg. So give me the Bengals. 1361 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,519 Speaker 3: Also, this is a very feisty Bengal team. I mean 1362 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 3: they were getting directed in like droves last week, just 1363 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 3: like mercilessly, just punishing like the punt returner you know 1364 01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 3: from Miami, Jaquem Grant, just like just a ton of 1365 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 3: skirmishes and scuffles. And now you're going against this Cowboy 1366 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,840 Speaker 3: team who I think it's hilarious because remember what happened 1367 01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,679 Speaker 3: a few weeks ago in that in that first Washington 1368 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:42,759 Speaker 3: game when Andy Dalton got knocked out and no Cowboy 1369 01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:44,760 Speaker 3: stood up for him, Like they're all just kind of 1370 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 3: standing around him in a heap, and like, no, you know, 1371 01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 3: usually when when there's a dirty hitt and boss that 1372 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 3: got ejected, you see the guys you know, run up 1373 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 3: in his face. You know, somebody has to be held back. 1374 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 3: But there was none of that. So now you're going 1375 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:57,559 Speaker 3: against this Bengals team that they showed that like their 1376 01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,280 Speaker 3: season has been over, but they're there. There's the playing 1377 01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,559 Speaker 3: with the edge. So I do think like this is 1378 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 3: technically the Cowboys to have like a one and a 1379 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 3: half percent chance to make the playoffs if they were 1380 01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,559 Speaker 3: able to win out, just you know, as of right now, 1381 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 3: based on the fact that we don't know the outcomes 1382 01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,560 Speaker 3: of the other games yet, if they were to win out, 1383 01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 3: in theory, their playoff chances could rise back up to 1384 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,599 Speaker 3: his highest thirty three percent. So like, technically, like this 1385 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,920 Speaker 3: is actually a trap game for them, But either way, 1386 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,639 Speaker 3: it's it's just a game where I think Cincinnati has 1387 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 3: like they're gonna come out with more of an edge, 1388 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 3: and I make this essentially a pick them, so, uh yeah, 1389 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:33,880 Speaker 3: I don't. 1390 01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:34,720 Speaker 5: I don't hate that at all. 1391 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 3: It's it's scary to bet Cincinnati win a game, but 1392 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:38,880 Speaker 3: it's the Dalton revenge spot. 1393 01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,000 Speaker 5: But who wants more revenge? Cincinnati for all the years 1394 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 5: Dalton wasted or or Dalton. 1395 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:44,800 Speaker 3: I feel like it's Cincinnati. 1396 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 4: What's he gonna do? Try harder because he's playing the 1397 01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:47,719 Speaker 4: Bengals like. 1398 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 5: It's just everything's underneath. 1399 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 3: It's I could totally see this, agree with I can 1400 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 3: see the Cowboys landing you jag here. I am going 1401 01:10:56,040 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 3: with the team that I mistakenly Betsy against over and 1402 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:04,679 Speaker 3: over last week, and that is the Washington football team 1403 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 3: at San Francisco. 1404 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 5: And they're plus one forty five. 1405 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 3: And I started to look back on this team and really, 1406 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:16,200 Speaker 3: this is a pretty average team. They're about seventeenth in 1407 01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:22,800 Speaker 3: overall dvoah, they they're top five on defense. But I'm 1408 01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 3: thinking back on it, and I'm and you really started 1409 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:26,760 Speaker 3: to see this kind of come out in that San 1410 01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 3: Francisco in that Pittsburgh game. But this is like the 1411 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 3: team like this is like the emotional team, Like this 1412 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:37,160 Speaker 3: is like the team that you look at Ron Rivera 1413 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 3: and what you know what he's gone through this year, 1414 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 3: you know, battling cancer, decides that they're not just gonna 1415 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,599 Speaker 3: tank the season, even though it probably would have help 1416 01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:46,439 Speaker 3: him because they still don't have the long term quarterback 1417 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:48,800 Speaker 3: on the roster. He's like, no, we're gonna go for 1418 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:52,000 Speaker 3: the division title. And then you push comes to shove, 1419 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:53,680 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden you have Alex Smith in there, 1420 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,760 Speaker 3: who battled back from a life threatening injury. So yeah, 1421 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:59,000 Speaker 3: the two team leaders just battling back from like life 1422 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:02,600 Speaker 3: threatening circumstances is now finally have some confidence because this 1423 01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 3: is a great second half team. They have the great 1424 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 3: best second half scoring margin in the league. But they've 1425 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,519 Speaker 3: come out flat in a lot of different spots and 1426 01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 3: that's kind of slowed them down. But you look at 1427 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 3: their first their first half offense, their top five and 1428 01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:20,160 Speaker 3: success right now in first half offense under Alex Smith, 1429 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 3: they were thirtieth under the other two quarterbacks. So I 1430 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 3: think you're going to start to see some improvement there. 1431 01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:30,160 Speaker 3: And Kyle Shanahan, his spots are the underdog spots like 1432 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,800 Speaker 3: those in it didn't come through last week, but those 1433 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:34,680 Speaker 3: are well, they kind of flipped to a favorite and 1434 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,040 Speaker 3: you saw what happened. So you know, Kyle Shanahan is 1435 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 3: a coach that you generally like to bet, you know, 1436 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 3: on him when the Niners are underdogs, they just for 1437 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,200 Speaker 3: some reason play better. Still not at home, they're still 1438 01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:49,040 Speaker 3: in Arizona. But I just like the Washington football team. Initially, 1439 01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:50,280 Speaker 3: I was like, this is going to be a letdown 1440 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 3: spot for Washington, and then I just thought back, I'm like, no, 1441 01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:55,600 Speaker 3: this is that one team that just has all that 1442 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 3: emotion like that. It's it's going to be that team 1443 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 3: that's just like it's the feel good story of twenty twelve. 1444 01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 3: And I don't think you're gonna want to fuck with 1445 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,040 Speaker 3: Washington down a strets, so I'm gonna try to get 1446 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 3: out ahead of you. I could be wrong, but uh 1447 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:08,200 Speaker 3: going with Washington plus one forty five here. 1448 01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:11,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, Washington's defense put a tremendous number number one red 1449 01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,800 Speaker 4: zone defense too. That defensive line is great. But I mean, 1450 01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:17,439 Speaker 4: this is the quintessential Bilo so hot. We saw San 1451 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:21,080 Speaker 4: Fran get blown out. We saw Washington pull that huge 1452 01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 4: upset over Pittsburgh. So are they flat here? Potentially? That's 1453 01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 4: scary one for. 1454 01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:28,559 Speaker 3: Me, Like, just watch out for that. That's what I'm saying, like, 1455 01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:31,000 Speaker 3: watch out for Washington. Just watch this team down a 1456 01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 3: stretch because I just have a feeling that they're they're 1457 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 3: gonna be kind of a performing expectation. Now, let's get 1458 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,960 Speaker 3: into the best of the rest, which are the games 1459 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,439 Speaker 3: that did not make it into any other segment. All right, 1460 01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 3: First up, we have Denver. This line is off the 1461 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:51,639 Speaker 3: board at some books. Carolina dealing with some COVID issues. 1462 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:54,960 Speaker 3: Looks like DJ Moore the wide receiver will not play. 1463 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:59,040 Speaker 3: But Carolina three and a half point favorites. Last we've 1464 01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 3: seen the I may open a little bit well er 1465 01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:04,639 Speaker 3: if you know, if it comes back out and anything 1466 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:06,400 Speaker 3: else is announced. But right now, that's what we're going 1467 01:14:06,439 --> 01:14:08,400 Speaker 3: with any thoughts on this game. 1468 01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:10,200 Speaker 4: No, I mean, now we gotta we have to wait 1469 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,640 Speaker 4: to see who's out. Keep your well content out on 1470 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,200 Speaker 4: Action appen Action work dot com. I mean Ajbuie is 1471 01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:19,639 Speaker 4: now suspended cornerback for Denver. They already lost Bryce Callim's 1472 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:21,240 Speaker 4: been one of the best corners the NFL. So they're 1473 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:24,040 Speaker 4: starting corners and be Duke Dawson and a rookie Ojamudia. 1474 01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:26,840 Speaker 4: That's not great. Panthers off of a vibe and now 1475 01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:28,719 Speaker 4: be able to COVID issues. This game is a mess. 1476 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:30,559 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it. 1477 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,479 Speaker 3: It would seem like Denver's defense is going to take 1478 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 3: a hit, but still have Vic Fangio. I think it's 1479 01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 3: probably gonna be an undergame for me, just because the 1480 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 3: Panthers they're you know, Denver's taking a hit at corner, 1481 01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 3: but the Panthers are you know, gonna be down a 1482 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:46,240 Speaker 3: key wide receiver, if not more. Because Curtis Samuel also 1483 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:48,360 Speaker 3: went on the COVID list said that would be huge 1484 01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:51,880 Speaker 3: if you have to start like Brandon Zilstra and Pharaoh Cooper. Uh, 1485 01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:55,439 Speaker 3: so watch out for the under in this one. Uh 1486 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:59,680 Speaker 3: and uh. Next up, we have green Bay going to 1487 01:15:00,160 --> 01:15:08,719 Speaker 3: Detroit tro seven and a half point. Favorites are the Packers. 1488 01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:11,240 Speaker 3: The total is fifty five and a half. 1489 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to keep thing here to you keep 1490 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:17,840 Speaker 4: it around. Is Kenny Galladay gonna play? I don't know. Uh. 1491 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,840 Speaker 4: He's obviously really important to Detroit's offense, even though he 1492 01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:23,639 Speaker 4: wire going against Jaire Alexander. But without him, I don't 1493 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:25,840 Speaker 4: know if Detroit has any shot. I don't know how 1494 01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:28,759 Speaker 4: Detroit gets any stops. I make this slightly under seven, 1495 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:31,559 Speaker 4: but I don't I can't see how the Packers lose 1496 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:35,040 Speaker 4: this game. They're a good teaser piece. If Galladey plays too, 1497 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 4: I would like the override. I just think Green Bay 1498 01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:38,080 Speaker 4: is gonna go up and down the field. 1499 01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 3: It will, Yeah, that's what it would seem like. I 1500 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:44,040 Speaker 3: have a Green Bay as seven point favorites. It is 1501 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:46,200 Speaker 3: on the road. We've seen green Bay stumble a little 1502 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 3: bit and wait in a year outside of Wamba especially, 1503 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:51,559 Speaker 3: I think they won twenty three to twenty at Detroit 1504 01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:53,599 Speaker 3: last year. I think that both games they were three 1505 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:56,200 Speaker 3: point games. Actually, Detroit tends to play him tough. Now 1506 01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:57,439 Speaker 3: there is a new coach, so there is a little 1507 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:01,080 Speaker 3: bit of uncertainty here. But Aaron Rodgers play extremely well. 1508 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:04,719 Speaker 3: And I was impressed that in a spot against Philly 1509 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 3: last week where I thought, you know, okay, maybe maybe 1510 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 3: you see some slow down because pressure defenses, especially you know, 1511 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:14,760 Speaker 3: front fronts that can get pressure, have slowed him down. 1512 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 5: You also have a cornerback in that Philly game who. 1513 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 3: Could at least in theory obviously didn't happen, but in 1514 01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:24,840 Speaker 3: theory cover DeVante couldn't get it done. And now this 1515 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 3: is just such a such an easier defensive matchup for Rogers. 1516 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, I would lean to the over in this 1517 01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:34,320 Speaker 3: game if I had to make a play, just because 1518 01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:37,479 Speaker 3: you know, Detroit offense under Bevil now could be a 1519 01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 3: little bit better. I think green Bay's defense has been 1520 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 3: a little bit overrated, so would lean over as the 1521 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 3: play here as well. 1522 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Bevil still is like a Wisconsin guy 1523 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,240 Speaker 4: that just loves to run it right and right up 1524 01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 4: into the got way too often. But I think Swift's 1525 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 4: gonna be back, so that'll help because you can run 1526 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:58,600 Speaker 4: on green Ben. It won't be Adrian Peterson. But I 1527 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 4: don't see Green Bay losing that. I just don't see 1528 01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 4: how the trick can stop him. 1529 01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, no one out, No one has to 1530 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 3: sept Tampa so and and the Colts for like a half. 1531 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:08,800 Speaker 3: But really Mount Mark is about to scanting stop them. 1532 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 2: But we move on. 1533 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:15,799 Speaker 3: Last game is the Saints seven point favorites at Philly. 1534 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:20,080 Speaker 3: We have two of these kind of run first quarterbacks. 1535 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 3: The total is forty four for this game. These Saints 1536 01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 3: have been starting to be an under team. The Eagles 1537 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:28,160 Speaker 3: have started to be under team ween that way, although 1538 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:29,720 Speaker 3: the total is starting to creep down. But what are 1539 01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 3: your thoughts on Unhurts and how he affects this. 1540 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,880 Speaker 4: This number can't be much worse than Carson Wentz. 1541 01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:35,800 Speaker 2: I don't. 1542 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:37,040 Speaker 4: I don't even have that much for down grade. I 1543 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,360 Speaker 4: always have a big downgrade for rookie quarterbacks making their 1544 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 4: first start, But I mean, once has been as bad 1545 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:43,960 Speaker 4: as you can possibly get. I don't. I can't project 1546 01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:46,040 Speaker 4: that he's gonna be better. I have to see more. 1547 01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:48,600 Speaker 4: And he seems are just like a one read quarterback 1548 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 4: for now. But maybe he provides a spark. And yeah, 1549 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,040 Speaker 4: I mean Wentz was just playing at such a he 1550 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 4: needed to. He needs to get out of there and 1551 01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:59,640 Speaker 4: start over. If he even has anything left, I don't know. 1552 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,160 Speaker 4: I hear here and Drew Brees might play. And I 1553 01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:05,800 Speaker 4: still have a big downgrades between Breeze and Taysom Hill, 1554 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 4: Hurt Snuck. We don't get any help. You can't run 1555 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:11,080 Speaker 4: on the Saints at all. Historically great run defense, they 1556 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 4: have some defensive injuries to keep your eye on. The 1557 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:15,639 Speaker 4: Saints are eight to no against spread the last eight games. 1558 01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 4: Breeze hasn't started. I don't know the Saints. They are 1559 01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:23,280 Speaker 4: rolling and they're going to Philadelphia here, is this a 1560 01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:26,840 Speaker 4: slip up? Spot. I don't know. Possibly this is tough 1561 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:29,720 Speaker 4: for me. I have the line spot on, though. If 1562 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 4: Breeze plays and this line ticks up, I might go 1563 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:37,800 Speaker 4: Philly reluctantly. But this is in the game I'm rushing 1564 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:39,920 Speaker 4: to bet it really has a bunch of injuries to 1565 01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,200 Speaker 4: keep an eye on to a Corners offensive line. 1566 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, Reports of as of this morning are that Breeze 1567 01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,719 Speaker 3: is targeting a week fifteen return date. Says he's progressing 1568 01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 3: well according to the NFL Network, but he won't practice 1569 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:55,599 Speaker 3: much this week, so probably won't see him back this week. 1570 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 5: I think it'll be one more at least one. 1571 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 3: More game of Taystem And yeah, I think i'd probably 1572 01:18:59,880 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 3: just lean under. But uh, it's so hard to know 1573 01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:06,160 Speaker 3: because with this with the spread, because hurts, I think 1574 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:06,559 Speaker 3: I agree. 1575 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,600 Speaker 5: I think he could be an upgrade. 1576 01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 3: And in that case, you know, you don't want to 1577 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 3: just blindly fade him because Philly is already kind of 1578 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 3: you're buying. You know, they're at the lowest point if 1579 01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:19,880 Speaker 3: you're betting against them. Uh, and then you know Taysom 1580 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:23,720 Speaker 3: Hill we've seed three games, two have been against the Falcons, 1581 01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 3: one has been against Broncos without a quarterback, So it's 1582 01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:29,880 Speaker 3: another one of these weird games where he's going against 1583 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:32,840 Speaker 3: another similar quarterback. Now, I just think it's gonna be 1584 01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 3: another Saints kind of low scoring game. You look at 1585 01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,920 Speaker 3: their defense there, so the Saints are second in the 1586 01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 3: overall defensive DVOA and they're two against the pass, two 1587 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:47,360 Speaker 3: against the rush. So that is just I mean, and 1588 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:49,600 Speaker 3: this was that's impressive because last week they had no 1589 01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:53,040 Speaker 3: Jack Rabbit, who played a big role in that first 1590 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:54,640 Speaker 3: game against the wa and they had no Davin for 1591 01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:58,720 Speaker 3: and just keep on rolling. So yeah, undergame for me. 1592 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:01,320 Speaker 3: Not sure how how we you know what happens with Hurts, 1593 01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:02,640 Speaker 3: but do agreact Now. I don't think it can be 1594 01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 3: any worse than Carson Wentz, and I think that the 1595 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:07,760 Speaker 3: fact that he could scramble does does help them, because 1596 01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:09,439 Speaker 3: I think Wentz was just kind of he. 1597 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 5: Was scrambling a little bit more. 1598 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:13,280 Speaker 3: But the bottom line is the scheme isn't getting guys 1599 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:17,240 Speaker 3: open consistently enough, so that rushing ability is going to 1600 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,840 Speaker 3: come in handy with just you know, keeping the chains 1601 01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:22,160 Speaker 3: moving and picking up an extra first down or two. 1602 01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,559 Speaker 5: Now, let's get into our Survivor Picks of the week. 1603 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:26,880 Speaker 2: One pick. 1604 01:20:28,120 --> 01:20:34,400 Speaker 1: One chance to advance survivor and we. 1605 01:20:34,720 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 5: Lost again Seattle. 1606 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:40,720 Speaker 3: So that's like the what third time I think this year. 1607 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:45,200 Speaker 3: So not not ideal, but it's getting late in the year. 1608 01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:49,240 Speaker 3: If you're alive, congratulations that you're on a heck of 1609 01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:49,639 Speaker 3: a run. 1610 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:52,280 Speaker 5: I mean, who do we who are we looking at 1611 01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 5: for this week? 1612 01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:55,200 Speaker 3: I haven't used the Chiefs, not that I see. 1613 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:56,559 Speaker 4: Now I'll go Chiefs. 1614 01:20:56,720 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I didn't use the Saints yet. 1615 01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 3: I mean, not that it makes much of a difference now, 1616 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 3: but I'll go with the Saints to get the win 1617 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,519 Speaker 3: against the rookie quarterback.
