I'm sitting up to cash touchtop. 4 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,920 Speaker 3: We see most gamblers when they go to gamble, they 5 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 3: go to win. 6 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 4: That's incredible. 7 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: Big bank, small bank. I like to make money. All right, 8 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 2: this is the ultimate kabine you want to pack. 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 4: And we are underway. 10 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 3: Welcome into our NFL roundtable for week three. This week, 11 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 3: I'm joined by two Action Network colleagues. Evan Abrams, our 12 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: director of Research and Media you can hear every Monday 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 3: morning on our NFL recap episodes, and joining him are 14 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 3: very special guest Stuckey, the Prime Minister of Degenerate Nation, 15 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 3: co host of our weekly Sunday six Pack with Chris Raybond, 16 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 3: also Big Bets on Campus podcast, College Football World, College Basketball, 17 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: and just a million other things at Action Network. Rinding 18 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,199 Speaker 3: Glass Sheen in the host chair. We have a lot 19 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 3: to get to stuck. I've called this show this is 20 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 3: an official it's unofficial, but like it's weekly therapy. It's 21 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 3: early in the week Tuesday Wednesday's kind of our slower 22 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 3: time before we get to action in your case, but 23 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 3: a chance to digest what we just saw and look 24 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 3: ahead to the following week. So I'll go to you first, Stucks. 25 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: We haven't had you on the roundtable yet. The biggest 26 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 3: takeaway from Week two in the National Football League. 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, I think Evan will have some numbers 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 4: to put to this, but just the passing offenses way down. 29 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 4: Just look at passing touchdowns through two weeks. Back in 30 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 4: twenty twenty and twenty twenty one, one hundred and ten 31 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 4: touchdowns throwing through the air over the first two weeks. 32 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 4: I think we were at sixty five sixty six this year. 33 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 4: I mean it is way down. The quarterback play overall 34 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 4: is I think significantly worse. Defenses have adjusted, especially with 35 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 4: their coverage style taking away explosive plays. I mean, look, 36 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 4: go look at the watch that entire Chiefs Bengals game 37 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 4: as a perfect example. I mean, Mahomes is one of 38 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 4: the best quarterbacks of all time. Every throw was at 39 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 4: the line of scrimmage seemingly until till the end. So yeah, 40 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 4: just running is almost becoming as efficient as passing. You know, 41 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 4: your dad saying, run the damn ball is everything is 42 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 4: cyclical in the NFL. That's becoming more and more the case. 43 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 4: So yeah, just the overall passing offenses, quarterback play, the 44 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 4: defense is adjusting. It's definitely obvious. 45 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 3: Half evan of the rookie quarterback class. Of course, McCarthy's 46 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 3: out for the year, May and Pennix are still sitting, 47 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 3: but the rookie class as well as some other young 48 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 3: quarterbacks bryce young bench. Will get to that in a moment. 49 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 3: But numbers to back up Stucky's point even to a 50 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 3: larger degree. 51 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, Like the passing touchdowns, I think there's like sixty 52 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 5: nine so far. It's been really bad. Just a few 53 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 5: numbers here and some The last one I'll give to me, 54 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 5: and I'm gonna tweek this out a little bit. 55 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: It'll be at the head of my article. To me, 56 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: is probably the craziest. 57 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 5: But through two weeks, we've had twenty nine quarterbacks of 58 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 5: the ball at least twenty times with under two hundred 59 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 5: passing yards. That's the most for any season since two 60 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 5: thousand and eight, and the second most for any start 61 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 5: to a season since nineteen ninety. Through two weeks, we've 62 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 5: had forty eight quarterbacks of the ball ten plus times 63 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 5: with one passing touchdown or fewer. That's the most of 64 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 5: two weeks again, since two thousand and eight, it's been 65 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 5: a long time since we've just seen no offensive production, 66 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 5: especially through the passing game, other than like Derek Carr. 67 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: But in this. 68 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 5: Situation, think about this, through two weeks, only seventeen of 69 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 5: sixty four quarterbacks have gone over one and a half 70 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 5: passing touchdowns. 71 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: It's just, you. 72 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 5: Know, from a betting perspective, and the thing I was 73 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 5: trying to look up pretty quickly. I'm pretty sure totals yes, 74 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 5: seventeen and fourteen to the under, so it's not impacting. 75 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 5: It's not twenty and eleven or something of that nature. 76 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 5: So I think the lower totals are probably having an 77 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 5: impact on that number a little bit. But the stat 78 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 5: that I love is so so far during twenty twenty four, 79 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 5: we've had five quarterbacks go for three hundred plus passing yards, 80 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 5: and we've had four teams had three hundred plus net 81 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 5: passing yards, and none of them. 82 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: Have covered the spread. 83 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 5: They're four and one at this point, and that's a 84 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 5: first time since nineteen eighty no team three hundred plus 85 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 5: passing yards has covered in the first two weeks. It's 86 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 5: just unbelievable. The terrible nature of passing I think Gardner 87 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,799 Speaker 5: Minshew is the only quarterback to throw for two hundred 88 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 5: and fifty plus in the first two weeks. 89 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: I don't know what else to say. 90 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 4: The passing touchdown leaders through two weeks are Baker Mayfield, 91 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 4: Derek Carr, and Sam Darnold, just like everyone predicted. 92 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 3: I think that's why situation matters. Also, being in a 93 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 3: bad division maybe matters too, But we'll see when those 94 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 3: teams go head to head more often. The big news 95 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 3: of yesterday the Carolina Panthers have moved off Bryce Young 96 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 3: as their starting quarterback for now. For now, who knows 97 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 3: the red rifle Andy Dalton named the starter for Week three, 98 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: Carolina taking on Vegas. Lined opened at seven. It's down 99 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 3: to five and a half. The Panthers stock have lost 100 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 3: ten straight first halfs against the spread. You've already bet 101 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: the full game line on Carolina plus seven, Evan. I 102 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: saw your tweet yesterday. It has begun with the following. 103 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 3: In the action app, you can follow the line movement 104 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: coming down a point and a half under Bryce Young, 105 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: and the Panthers have failed in a way almost no 106 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: modern NFL team has failed. This franchise was purchased for 107 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 3: two point two billion dollars. How do we handle the 108 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: Panthers going forward? 109 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: Here? 110 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 3: Stock, I know in your case you've already been at 111 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 3: the seven, but your thoughts here. 112 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 4: With Dalton as the quarterback, just when I thought I 113 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 4: was out, they reeled me back in so oh and 114 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 4: real quick. 115 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 3: Brandon Anderson has bet Carolina again to win the NFC 116 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: South at two hundred to one. 117 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 4: You can burn that ticket. The look the Panthers, I 118 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 4: had their season win total over. I thought they would 119 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 4: be improved this year. I thought Bryce Young under a 120 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 4: new offensive coordinator. I mean, look at this Saints offense. 121 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 4: They get a new offensive coordinator there. They were one 122 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 4: of the teams that ranked lowest in the NFL, along 123 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,559 Speaker 4: with the Panthers in pre snat motion and the play action. 124 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 4: So you know in the Saints their offense now there, 125 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: Clint Kubiak looks like a rocket ship. Panthers, you know, 126 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: bringing Date Canalis, new offensive coordinator, figured they would use 127 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 4: a lot more play action pre stat motion, move Young 128 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 4: around because he is undersized. They did upgrade all the 129 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 4: pieces around him. The offensive line has been They upgraded 130 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 4: at center, they signed two really good guards. They had 131 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: decent tackles. If you look at the metrics. The offensive 132 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 4: line from past block perspective is playing pretty well. They 133 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 4: upgraded their wide receiver room. But Bryce Young not only 134 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 4: didn't improve in his second year, which is hard to 135 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 4: do because he was so bad last year. I think 136 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 4: he had a thirty three QBR, which was second worse 137 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 4: than the league among qualified quarterbacks, only ahead of Zach Wilson. 138 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 4: He's around thirty three this year, he's an eight eight. 139 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 4: He was unplayable. This had to be done. Yeah, you 140 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 4: weren't going to win any games with him. Your defense 141 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 4: also isn't very good. That's why I don't think they 142 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 4: are a threat to win the division. And the Bucks 143 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 4: looked better than I thought. The Saints are obviously gonna 144 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 4: be much better than the Falcons are pretty good too. 145 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 4: The Heather's defense is not any good, and you lost 146 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 4: Derek Brown, your best player up front. I do like 147 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 4: their coordinator, but you need to score. You're not going 148 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 4: to win win games three nothing. This isn't a dominant defense. 149 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 4: In fact, it's a sub average defense. So I think 150 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 4: this is like a two and a half to three 151 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 4: point upgrade for the Panthers. It also is Adam Feeling 152 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 4: blew up on the sidelines, like you just couldn't keep 153 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: sending Young out there, or that you would have lost 154 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 4: the team. So I think it had to be done. 155 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 4: And I think I've been clamoring. I was tweeting about 156 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 4: this week you have to go to Donald so I was, 157 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 4: I mean, excuse me, you have to go to Dalton. 158 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 4: So I was happy that they did it. They're still 159 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 4: gonna be a really bad team and as a result, 160 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 4: I'm back on the Panthers this week. It's a really 161 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 4: good spot. They're oh and two both straight up and 162 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 4: against the spread. Historically those teams have fared very well. 163 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 4: Raiders coming back across the country and they you know, 164 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 4: off that big upset win over Baltimore. The Raiders also 165 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 4: can't run the ball, and the Panthers run they last 166 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 4: year was worse than the league. Like I mentioned before, 167 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 4: they don't have Brown, So I think it's a pretty 168 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 4: good matchup in a lot of ways, and they just 169 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 4: they will get some form of competent quarterback play, which 170 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 4: they just have never had with Young back there. 171 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 3: It's a mere white of the Raiders held to twenty 172 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 3: four yards on the ground against Baltimore. And you mentioned 173 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 3: the injuries Burns traded in the offseason. 174 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: Evan. 175 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 3: Anything to add there as far as Andy Dalton and 176 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: the Panthers are concerned. 177 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 5: I mean, the line moved one and a half points 178 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 5: and the total moved three points based off the decision. 179 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 5: The market told him exactly what to do, and he 180 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 5: made it right. It was the right decision. I mean, 181 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 5: even if you look since twenty twenty two in terms 182 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 5: of just total body of work, because that's a little 183 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 5: bit easier when you look at Andy Dalton, thirty nine 184 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 5: quarterbacks have had five hundred plus plays. Bryce is thirty ninth, 185 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 5: last in EPA per play Dalton's twenty first. Bryce is 186 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 5: thirty ninth, last in success right Dalton's eleventh. 187 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: It's just an upgrade. 188 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 5: So I bet the seven, I bet the six and 189 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 5: a half under that, I don't think there's much to 190 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 5: really do there in that game. And to Stuck's point, 191 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 5: with the Raiders, teams go est to home, Mst to Pst. 192 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 5: In terms of the Raiders fifty seven and eighty three 193 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 5: against the spread, so it is a tough spot for them. 194 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, just to throw a couple of numbers out there, 195 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 4: Young six of twenty for one hundred and twenty three yards, 196 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 4: zero touchdowns, three interceptions on throws ten plus yards downfield 197 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 4: on the season, has adjusted net yards per attempt one 198 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 4: point one. I mean, wow, that is like Iowa levels. 199 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 4: So it's it was bad. It just the bad picks. 200 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 4: He wasn't reading defenses. He didn't he didn't he he 201 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 4: didn't look comfortable back there. He didn't look like at 202 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 4: any confidence. It was all bad. There was nothing. I 203 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 4: unfortunately watched both of the first two Panthers games because 204 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 4: I had money on them. Well, those are seven hours 205 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 4: I'll never get back in my life. But I there was. 206 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 4: There wasn't one single thing that you could be like, Okay, 207 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 4: we can build off of this, or Okay, I see 208 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 4: that he'd improved in this. No, everything was worse, and 209 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 4: I think his confidence was shot, and I don't think 210 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 4: the team trusted him or believed in him anymore. It 211 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 4: had to be done, believe it or not. 212 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 3: Raiders Panthers total at forty and a half, not one 213 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 3: of the five totals below forty this week, Which one 214 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 3: is your favorite of those games? Stuck? I'll ask you 215 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 3: first the games you have on the dock at Chargers, 216 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: at Steelers, Broncos at Bucks, Giants at Brown's, Patriots, Jets, 217 00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: Green Bay, and Tennessee. 218 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 4: I would say, I mean they're super low total, so 219 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: the margin for errors and great, but the Steelers are 220 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 4: basically the way that they play. They're trying to basically 221 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 4: catch the under for you, and same as the Charters 222 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 4: in a way. They want to just run the ball, 223 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 4: and the Steelers are just spamming runs and short passes. 224 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 4: They're not running effectively, but they're just relying on their defense. 225 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 4: So that's super low. You know, thirty seven are above. 226 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 4: I would like that Giants Browns is interesting. We'll see 227 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 4: if there's any wind outside in Cleveland. But you have 228 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones against any type of pressure folds and he 229 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 4: folds like a cheap ten. I mean, his numbers are horrific, 230 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 4: and the Browns are going to be able to man 231 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 4: up their wide receivers bring pressure against Jones, and I 232 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 4: don't know how the Giants are going to be able 233 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 4: to move the ball. And the Giants have a pretty 234 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: good defensive front that I think that they can get 235 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 4: to Watson and you know, their secondary isn't great, but 236 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 4: it's not like Cleveland as the best wide receiver room 237 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 4: in the NFL and then so I don't you know, 238 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 4: I think where that number is. That probably my favorite 239 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 4: of the group. But Green Bay Tennessee. Look last week, 240 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 4: Green Bay, they didn't ask Willis to do much. It 241 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 4: was a great game plan by the floor. I assume 242 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 4: he's going to start again. They'll probably rumors that maybe 243 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 4: Leve will come back, but I doubt that they rush 244 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 4: him back this week. He just gave him all that 245 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 4: money and they got to win already with Willis, So 246 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 4: you're kind of playing a little bit with house money here. 247 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 4: So I assume it's Willis again. What they did against 248 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 4: the Colts is they just spam. I mean it was 249 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 4: like a service acat. I don't know how many times 250 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 4: they've run about fifty something times in that game. And 251 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 4: the Colts defense is soft. They had all kinds of 252 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 4: injuries up front. The Tennessee front seven is really good. 253 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 4: This is a Tights team that should be two. Know 254 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 4: you're not going to do that they have and they 255 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 4: have two really good corners. I don't know how the 256 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 4: Packers move the ball here, and the Tennessee offense, you know, 257 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 4: they they'll they'll probably put together a few drives and 258 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 4: then Lewis will just give it, give the ball away, 259 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: So you just have to worry about the Titans hunting unit. 260 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 4: I mean, this is like a high school team. They 261 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 4: get a punt blocked every week. Uh, so you have 262 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 4: to worry about that. But yeah, I wouldn't Sometimes with 263 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 4: these low totals, I look for a reason to go 264 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 4: over when they get too low and the market seems 265 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 4: to be coming really far down after some of the 266 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 4: issues we talked about to kick off the show. None 267 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 4: of these overs interest me. I think my favorite under 268 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 4: would probably be that Brown's Giants at current crisis. 269 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 3: Fifty three carries for the Green Bay backfield against the 270 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: Indianapolis Cults.

You have thoughts 286 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 3: on Thursday night's game England at New. 287 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 5: York, Jess Well, I'll just say this kind of as 288 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 5: a blanketed term. There's five totals of under forty. All 289 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 5: five of those totals have moved at least like three 290 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 5: points south from their opener, so they're all falling very dramatically. 291 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 5: I would say those five totals are go three and 292 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 5: two or better to the under on the close would 293 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 5: be a prediction from me. I think most of them 294 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 5: feel right as the league is trending down in terms 295 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 5: of passing, and especially that Charger Pittsburgh game at thirty 296 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 5: five and a half tied for the lowest total for 297 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 5: the Chargers since two thousand and six and just for 298 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 5: some like look around about how low that total is 299 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 5: for them. This was what the Week eighteen game was 300 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 5: for them last year, thirty five and a half, and 301 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 5: you were two complete backups in Now this is a 302 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 5: Week three that you know, both teams are, you know, 303 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 5: two to zero, so completely different styles all around in 304 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 5: that game. But I would agree with Stuck. I kind 305 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 5: of like the Giants. That was the Giants Browns one 306 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 5: was going to be my pick. I also liked New 307 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 5: England and the Jets, but it's gone to the thirty 308 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 5: seven and a half, so I like the thirty eight 309 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 5: and a half with the Giants. I mean, Daniel Jones 310 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 5: sixty three percent of the under in his career, and 311 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 5: I believe it's like ten and two last two seasons 312 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 5: nature something of that nature. So I would probably go 313 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 5: with that Browns Giants game. Cleveland's defense still top ten 314 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 5: ish EPA per play, they were amazing last year and 315 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 5: Watson I don't trust at all either, and the Giants 316 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 5: defense has been to start the year, so I think 317 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 5: they get a little bit back on track. I go 318 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 5: low scoring there. 319 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, thinks about some of these teams we just mentioned though, 320 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 4: and the other thing's going back to the scoring point. Wow, 321 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 4: we have totals to slow. Think about all the new 322 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 4: quarterbacks that have come into the league over the past 323 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 4: couple of years. None of them look good, you know, 324 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 4: besides Party the last pick in the draft in Stroud, 325 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 4: in Stroud and Stroud obviously Stroud. 326 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, but last week against the floor as defense, you're 327 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 5: confused as all confused could be. 328 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 2: We usually quack look good or confused. 329 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 4: But listen, like some of the quarterbacks both say both 330 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 4: like throw. Over the first two weeks, you had Bryce 331 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 4: Young in the who couldn't complete a forward pass. Bow Nicks, 332 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 4: he can't complete a forward pass. All these teams do 333 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 4: you have Malik Willison there? All these seems to look 334 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 4: like triple option teams in college. We just mentioned fifty 335 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 4: three carries for the Packers. I mean the Giants, Daniel 336 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 4: Jones is cooked, bow Knicks, Bryce Young, Jacobe Brissett. I 337 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 4: mean the Patriots are basically like a service gat me 338 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 4: now just trying to run win with their defense, try 339 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 4: to win seventeen to fourteen justin fields. It's just like, hey, 340 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 4: throw throw it into the flat. We're gonna run it 341 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 4: forty times. And throw it deep four times to Pickens, 342 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 4: Like that's the game plan. Caleb Williams does not look greatest. 343 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 4: Offensive line isn't helping him. But there's just such bad 344 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 4: quarterback play and the style of offenses of morphed into 345 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 4: stuff that you only saw in college a couple of 346 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 4: years ago. 347 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: Here are the five starting quarterbacks in the NFL, currently 348 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: zero and two against the spread. 349 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 4: Two. 350 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: We just talked about Will Levis, Daniel Jones. You have 351 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford, Lamar Jackson, and c. J. 352 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 4: Stroud. 353 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 3: I don't think you're gonna pick Levis and Jones. Maybe 354 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 3: I'm wrong, but pick one of those other guys stuck 355 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 3: to cover in Week three? 356 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going Oh can you hear me? 357 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 3: Yeah? No, I said, wait a minute, because I think 358 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 3: you are going to pick one of those two guys. 359 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 6: I said, yes, I'm going with the Estrada. I guess 360 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,479 Speaker 6: it depends on the number you got. Yeah, and hal 361 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 6: To talk about the close but he's been the Texans. 362 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 6: If if you bet both of their games, depending on 363 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 6: the number you got, they've been ultra sweats. 364 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 4: But yeah, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with Will Levis. 365 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 4: The Titans he's crossed them both games I have. I 366 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 4: bet the Titans I've had I'd be having such a 367 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 4: great NFL. Ye if I hadn't bet the Titans and 368 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 4: the Panthers, I'm owing four betting those teams. And guess 369 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 4: what I bet them again this week. The Titans. I 370 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 4: was watching that game last week. Yeah, I had never 371 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 4: had such deja vous in my life. They had Lewis 372 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 4: had one of the worst turnovers you ever see. They 373 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 4: had a lead, they were dominating the game, they had 374 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 4: a punt blocked, and I believe the score was the same. 375 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 4: I think they lost. Did they lose by the same score? 376 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 3: And because it was seventeen nothing at Chicago seventeen against 377 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 3: the Jets, I mean, give me so, but this is 378 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 3: a team that should be two and U. 379 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 4: They're owing two, but they should be two and H. 380 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 4: They should have. I mean, they dominated the Bears, and 381 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 4: they were the better team against the Jets. They just 382 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 4: got killed by a couple. You know, they turned it 383 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 4: over on first on third and goal when Levis just 384 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 4: had another brain fart, they got a punt blocked, and 385 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 4: then at the end of the game they didn't score 386 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 4: inside the ten again. Their defense is really good. They 387 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 4: upgraded a corner. I like the new defensive coordinator came 388 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 4: from the McDonald Ravens tree. I like some of the additions, 389 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 4: like Sweat up front to pair with Simmons. They got 390 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 4: him in the draft. Even bringing Ernest Jones to help 391 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 4: your linebacker depth. That was a position of me. But 392 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 4: this is This defense is legit. And I just mentioned 393 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 4: the Packers. They're going to try to just spam run 394 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 4: and I don't think you can do that against this 395 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 4: Tennessee front. And I think Tennessee will do enough at 396 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 4: home offensively to get this win. So anything under three 397 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 4: I like here, and you would just hope that they 398 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 4: get their punts off and Levis once they get a lead, 399 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 4: just take knees. The Callahan mentioned it, maybe you should 400 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 4: have followed through. What did we just punted on first down? 401 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 4: You should have done that last week would have won Evan. 402 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, this is actually a murderers of decisions for this week. 403 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 5: So Levis is now up to three, which he was 404 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 5: gonna be. It was all right, so to get to 405 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 5: the end, it was gonna be Titans or Ravens for me. 406 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 5: But the Titans are up to minus three in a 407 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 5: game of a total of thirty six, so not the best. 408 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 2: As Stuck said, I need two and a half there. 409 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 5: Ravens are in the Cowboys, and I don't exactly know 410 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 5: what the heck is going on with Baltimore, but I 411 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 5: feel like this is the get right spot for them 412 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 5: because I don't like Dallas at all this year and 413 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 5: I think their defense is absolutely poorous and I think 414 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 5: Baltimore should be able to get the job done there. 415 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 5: I liked Stafford, I said on the pod on Sunday night, 416 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 5: I like the seven and a half, and then the 417 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 5: Cooper Cup news came down, So I don't know who 418 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 5: they're gonna be throwing the ball to. But you know, 419 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 5: as someone said on Twitter, that games in a MRI 420 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 5: machine and Daniel Jones on the other side, Like, I 421 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 5: don't know how I bet that in Cleveland and Stroud. 422 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 5: It's a tough one going up against that Minnesota defense, 423 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 5: even you know, kind of young in his career having 424 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 5: to deal with Flora. So I'll go Baltimore or Tennessee, 425 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 5: and Tennessee under three to me is probably the pick. 426 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 5: As weird as that sounds, having delay points, Will levis 427 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 5: organic transition. 428 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 3: We're going to talk Ravens Cowboys this Sunday, both teams 429 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: coming off home losses. As we discussed Saints over the 430 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 3: Cowboys in Dallas and then the Raiders beating the Ravens 431 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 3: in their home opener Dallas, catching one. There are some 432 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 3: one and the halfs out there, juice to minus one twenty? 433 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: Where will this line go by? Kickoff stuck? The Ravens 434 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 3: visiting the Cowboys. 435 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's will bounce around a little bit. 436 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 4: I think the Ravens will eventually closes a tiny favorite. 437 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 4: But the Ravens have They're my team if you're listening 438 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 4: and don't know they have issues. But this is a 439 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 4: spot that Harpall usually always almost always wins in. But 440 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 4: you know, coming into the year, I was a lot 441 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 4: lower on Baltimore than I have been in quite some time. 442 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 4: The amount of talent and expertise they lost on that 443 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 4: stay a, starting with Mike McDonald on the defensive end 444 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 4: just cannot be understated. And that is evident through two games. 445 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 4: They're just not making the same adjustments. They're not as 446 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 4: buttoned up across the board. I mean, you just let 447 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: Gardner Minshew come back against you from you know, you 448 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 4: were up double digits in the fourth quarter at home 449 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 4: against the Raiders, and they couldn't They couldn't run the ball, 450 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 4: you k knowe what they were doing, and you couldn't adjust. 451 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 4: The offensive line has issues. I don't really know, Like 452 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 4: even the player personnel decisions are very confusing to me. 453 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 4: I think they got the wrong guy in there. Have 454 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 4: right guard, I think it should be Ben Cleveland or 455 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 4: you know, maybe you put McCart. They're still rotating right tackle. 456 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 4: So the offensive line is just a mess. And defensively, 457 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 4: what were they doing playing Malie Harrison in the in 458 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 4: Week one? He's unplayable. Fortunately they did bench him. He 459 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 4: didn't play a single snap. In Week two, Simpson played 460 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 4: every step the linebacker. I'm getting the weeds here, but 461 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 4: some of the personnel decisions have been baffling to me, 462 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 4: and the defensive staff is way down. The offensive line 463 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 4: is definitely an issue. Derrick Henry doesn't have as much 464 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 4: juice left in that tank as I thought he might 465 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 4: have for one more year. So it's not pretty, but 466 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 4: this is a game the Ravens usually went. I also 467 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 4: should mention the other the biggest takeaway with scoring down. 468 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 4: You know why scoring isn't down even more. This is 469 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 4: a tangent. And this is the saddest thing for me 470 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 4: to admit because for the past decade on an NFL Sunday, 471 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,959 Speaker 4: I kicked back, watched my bets, have the Ravens on 472 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 4: as well, and I just would tweet Auto when Tucker 473 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 4: came out for a kick and would laugh at all 474 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 4: the other kickers. It's like a college football Saturday now, Tucker, 475 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 4: I think it's one of sevens last fifty plus field 476 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 4: with US five times undefeated. No one else can miss 477 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 4: a field goal. No one else can miss a field 478 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 4: goal from fifty plus. It is insane. I've never seen 479 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 4: this level of accuracy across the board in the NFL, 480 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 4: that everyone is just what. We had a sixty but 481 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 4: Auvery had a sixty six yarder outdoors in Cleveland. Was 482 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 4: it sixty six or was it six? 483 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:23,959 Speaker 2: I think six? 484 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 3: He hit one. He hit one from sixty six in 485 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 3: the preseason. 486 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 4: No, he had one outdoors in Cleveland. 487 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 2: Was six. 488 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 4: There was a delay of game though, Yeah he hit it, 489 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 4: and then they were going to send him out for 490 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 4: a seventy one yard But yeah, it's insane. The kicking. 491 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 4: I don't I don't know if we talked about this 492 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 4: in the NFL, I mean in Major League Baseball juiced balls, 493 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 4: I don't know. They got to get the scoring up somehow. 494 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 4: They put in the juice in these footballs to get 495 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 4: the field goals right. 496 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: So that's why the punting looks so good too. 497 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 4: It is like a nightmare for the Ravens lost. They 498 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 4: shank a punt like a pistol team. 499 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: At least them. 500 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 5: Bearss punter looks good. But yeah, thirty five to thirty 501 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 5: nine from fifty Tucker has two of the four misses. 502 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 5: It seems, you know, unfathomable. 503 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 3: Baltimore closes a favorite Sunday. 504 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I was on the same page as Stock. 505 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 5: I don't like Dallas overall this year. I like Baltimore better. Obviously, 506 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 5: there's something wrong in Baltimore in some of its scheme. 507 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 5: I believe Henry had one carry in the fourth quarter 508 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 5: of that game, trying to ice a ten point lead. 509 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 5: I don't even know what to really say about that, 510 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 5: but I think the spot is. 511 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 2: Good for Baltimore. 512 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 5: Lamar twenty two and seven against the spread is a 513 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 5: favorite of three points or less or a dog in 514 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 5: all our response he's twenty three and thirty three ats 515 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 5: and again losing is a big favorite last week. 516 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think Baltimore probably closes the favorite. 517 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,120 Speaker 3: We'll do two more topics before we go. I'm sure 518 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 3: most of you have heard by now. This is more 519 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 3: of an instant reaction Sunday topic, but I want to 520 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: get your both your thoughts now with a few days 521 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 3: to process. NFL underdogs of six plus points or more 522 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 3: are now eight to zero against the spread through two weeks, 523 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 3: covering the spread by an average of nine point five 524 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 3: points per game, the best start for big dogs and 525 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 3: recorded NFL betting history. Pick your favorite six plus point 526 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 3: dog this week. 527 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I want to bet the Broncos. I don't. 528 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 4: I don't know if I'll get there, and I kind 529 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 4: of they can't move the ball they got. They should 530 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 4: go to Stidham, but they they're not going to me 531 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 4: yet this early. But the Bucks, I think there are 532 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 4: being way overright. I mean they were. They got dominated 533 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 4: by the Lions last week. They gave up I think 534 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 4: two hundred and sixty more total yards in that game. 535 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 4: They have injuries too on the defensive end. But can 536 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 4: Denver take advantage just I don't know. The Rams might 537 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 4: have too many injuries for my fancy, so I guess 538 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 4: I'll out of that list. I think you might see 539 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 4: some regression this week. I think my prediction how many 540 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 4: I mean, what was that list? 541 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 3: New England. 542 00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 4: I'll sayers my prediction similar to Evans earlier. I'll predict 543 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 4: those favorites go three and two. But if I had 544 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 4: to choose one, maybe I'd go with Washington. Their defense 545 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 4: is horrendous. We'll see if T. Higgins plays, but it's 546 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 4: like a running dog in that game because the Sincy 547 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 4: run defense is a disaster. And you know they lost TJ. 548 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 4: Reader in the offseason. Without DJ Reader last year because 549 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 4: he was hurt too at times, they were the worst 550 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 4: run defense in the NFL. Well, now you don't have Reader, 551 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 4: and now you have a myriad of injuries up front 552 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 4: on your defensive line. They just can't stop the run. 553 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 4: So Washington, with Daniel's legs, Robinson the company, they should 554 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 4: be able to move the ball on the ground you 555 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 4: have you know you're over a touchdown to so that 556 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 4: door is a possibility. So I think the Bengals win 557 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 4: that game. But there's a lot of paths for since 558 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: he to cover excuse me for Washington to cover Evan. 559 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 3: I think you're down to what Washington or the Patriots Thursday. 560 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's not the Giants or Denver because I 561 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 5: can't find good things about Bone Nicks or Daniel Jones 562 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 5: in that sense. And if the Bonix has to have 563 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 5: some success this week when going up against Tampa's secondary, 564 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 5: or he's never gonna have success, and you might as 565 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 5: well make the move. But for me, it's not the Giants, 566 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 5: it's not Denver and the Ram San Francisco, like Stuck said, 567 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 5: just way too hard of a cap for me with 568 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 5: everyone injured. So it's Washington and New England and probably Washington. 569 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 5: I think Stuck's probably right. At the seven. New England 570 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 5: felt fun considering I don't know if the Jets are 571 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 5: gonna be able to blow them out in New England's 572 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 5: playing way high over expectations, But yeah, I like that 573 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 5: Washington assume Jaydon Daniels has three total scores and they 574 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 5: figure out some way to keep it with an eight. 575 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, you could have some red zone regression too. I 576 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 4: didn't like their their play call. They can't really The 577 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 4: Giants Washington game was hilarious Washington wins twenty one to eighteen. 578 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 4: So Washington finishes are twenty one points on seven field 579 00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 4: goals and the Giants finished with eighteen points on three touchdowns. 580 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 4: Just a hilarious game. Yeah, I'm if what is the 581 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 4: Bucks line sitting at right now? 582 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: Seven? 583 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 4: Oh god, I'm gonna play it. 584 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 5: I mean, Denver team total like something to get you 585 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 5: into the game other than the fact that they're covering, 586 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 5: because Denver s gotta scored some points against the secondary 587 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 5: after that. 588 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 4: I mean, I've watched their offense. It looks bad. It 589 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 4: is bad, but you know, and I wasn't a believer 590 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 4: in bonext. I will say you went to Seattle in 591 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 4: your first start against the McDonald defense, and then you 592 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 4: played the Steelers defense. 593 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 2: That's true. 594 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 4: Like, so is there a little more juice there than 595 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 4: what my eyes are telling me? Like they should be 596 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 4: able to at least run the ball more. Now, the 597 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 4: Bucks have injuries up front and secondary, which should help Nicks. 598 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 4: You're just gonna need him. They need to get the 599 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 4: run game going because the only thing that's going to 600 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 4: work is play action. You know, short passes moving the 601 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 4: defender's eyes. Nick isn't going to be able to just 602 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 4: drop back and throw the ball. So, man, I was 603 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 4: hoping it didn't get the seven. 604 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 3: Six and a half's now too, so you may have 605 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 3: missed a chance, or it gets back to seven. Denver 606 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 3: team total this week sixteen and a half points set. 607 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 4: Think about that and I'm like, wait, how the hell 608 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 4: is Denver going to get to seventeen points? 609 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 2: Let me think about this. 610 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 5: With Nicks seventy seven pass attempts, it's like the third 611 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 5: most in the NFL this year. Fifty plus pass attempts 612 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 5: with zero passing touchdowns. 613 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 2: And four plus picks. 614 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 5: It's bone Nicks, Dorian Thompson, Robinson, Will Greer, like Ryan Linley. 615 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: Those are the quarter rookies to do that. Through the 616 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 2: two starts, it. 617 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 5: Has been a but again, I didn't really think about 618 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 5: the Seattle in Pittsburgh fact. And now he turns around 619 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 5: against Tampa Bay, so it's now we're never kid. 620 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, especially as Stuck said, with the banged up 621 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 3: secondary in Tampa last one. Since playoffs expanded to fourteen 622 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 3: teams in twenty twenty, thirty two teams have started zero 623 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 3: to two. Only two of those thirty two have made 624 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Last year's Texans and the twenty twenty two 625 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals. Just five of the thirty two finished with 626 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 3: a winning record. You have nine to oho and two 627 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 3: teams through two weeks this year, Rams, Panthers, Giants, Broncos, Jaguars, Titans, Colts, Ravens, 628 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 3: Bengals quickly stuck pick one to finish with a winning record, 629 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 3: and or I mean, if you get a winning record, 630 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 3: you're probably in the playoffs. Maybe not winning record or 631 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 3: to make the playoffs. So those nine oh and twos, 632 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 3: by the. 633 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 4: Way, Vinavella too a big loss for Tampa up front. 634 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 4: Maybe how big time you get their run game going 635 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 4: big time? I'll say Cincy. The funny thing is I 636 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 4: bet since he to win the AFC North before the 637 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 4: season started. And let's look at anyone want to pull 638 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: up what is their current price to win the AFC North. 639 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 3: I got it right here. Let's see Cincinnati plus one 640 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 3: ninety five. 641 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, hasn't even moved. Yeah, it hasn't even moved that much. 642 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 4: And they're rowing too, which is pretty funny because the 643 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 4: Ravens are rowing to the Browns are one on one 644 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 4: and the market doesn't believe in the Steelers rightfully, So 645 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 4: I so yeah, I mean this, The Bengals do this 646 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 4: every year. What are they won in Everyone will probably 647 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 4: know one in nine over the first one something like that. 648 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 4: They they start like oh and two every year. Barrow 649 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 4: usually has some injury that he's dealing with and then 650 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 4: you know he doesn't get work in the preseason and 651 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 4: it takes him some time to get ramped up. They 652 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 4: need to address the defensive line somehow, like in in 653 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 4: the market. They need to get they need to get 654 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 4: help there. But I do think that their safeties are 655 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 4: better or much better. I think their corner situation is 656 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 4: better than it was last year, and a Romo will 657 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 4: be able to do a lot more with those safeties. 658 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 4: I mean, look at the Chiefs game. It was a 659 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 4: great game plan defensively, So they need to they need 660 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 4: to help. They need to address a run dye. But 661 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 4: the schedule is easy. They have a last play schedule. 662 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 4: They you know, could have easily beat the Patriots. 663 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 3: In that game. In the penalty at the end of 664 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 3: the Kansas City game. 665 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, they should have beat the Chiefs. Now, the Ravens, 666 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 4: you could argue, should also be two and oh. But 667 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 4: they have issues and they have a much tougher schedule, 668 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 4: So I'm going to go the Tiebreger. There is the schedule, 669 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,760 Speaker 4: and I'm going with the Bengals. 670 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 3: Evan of the nine to zer one twos, which one 671 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 3: finishes the winning record and or mikes the playoffs. 672 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm with Cincinnati too. It's me for me with 673 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 5: Cincinnati or Tennessee. Uh, first, you got to win this week. 674 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 5: So of those teams I looked at Tennessee, Indie, Baltimore, 675 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 5: and Cincinnati, all. 676 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 2: Four could be two and oh. So they were. It 677 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 2: was enticing on that front. Uh. 678 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 5: And again Stuck said, Baltimore's schedule is just way too 679 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 5: difficult to be into this. So at Dallas, then you've 680 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 5: got Buffalo in a night game at Cincinnati, Washington at Tampa, 681 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 5: at Cleveland. 682 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 2: It's just not easy overall. 683 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 5: And I think that Cincinnati's is just a little bit 684 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 5: easier coming up. So Washington at Carolina, then you've got 685 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 5: that Baltimore game at home at the Giants. So I 686 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 5: do think that Cincinnati has a bit of an edge. 687 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 5: And Tennessee we talked about it before as we kind 688 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 5: of liked them in this game this week. But versus Denver, 689 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 5: versus I'm sorry, versus Green Bay at Miami, by Indy 690 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 5: at Buffalo. So Tennessee could have a winning record through 691 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 5: about four, five, six weeks. So mean it's Tennessee or Cincinnati. 692 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 4: Tennis all has to take advantage of this. It's yeah, 693 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 4: it's they could have been a sneaky wild card team. 694 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 4: They should have beat the Bears, they should have beat 695 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 4: the Jets. You're starting to and now you had to 696 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 4: take advantage of that. You you got Caleb Williams and 697 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 4: his first ever star was a disaster. You got the 698 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,439 Speaker 4: Jets on a short week, they did not look good. 699 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 4: Instead of two and oh your own two. But if 700 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 4: you were two and oh, guess what now you get 701 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 4: the Packers without Love, then you get the Dolphins without 702 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 4: tu It was all there. Now they can still make 703 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 4: a run and you know, get into that wild card decision. 704 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 4: But imagine the outlook if they were two and oh, 705 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 4: as they should be getting those breaks against the Packers 706 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 4: and Dolphins coming up after those quarterback injuries. It was 707 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 4: all setting up for to be a surprise team with 708 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 4: that defense, but I just couldn't get it done. 709 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 2: They were throwing it backwards. 710 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,919 Speaker 3: And if they're two and oh, we're probably talking about 711 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 3: why you might want to bet on the leak. Willis 712 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 3: in the pack? 713 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 4: Ultimately, yeah, maybe I'm well. 714 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,280 Speaker 3: See this is what I mean. It's a group therapy 715 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 3: session to pick it all apart and flush it all out. Stock, 716 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 3: thanks so much for joining us.
