Speaker 1: be honest, I've already sent Justin Herbert a text. I've

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: poured one tonight just for this thirty four to twenty

22
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: seven chargers. When whoever won, I was happy, although I

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: did pick the charger, so I'm a little happier, you know.

24
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: I've said this is when I started the volume. One

25
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: of the things I really really like. When I was

26
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: in my twenties and thirties, I was probably just too

27
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: selfish to help anybody else. I was into my thing

28
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: and I didn't you know, I was unmarried. And then

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: you get older and older, and you have kids, and

30
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 1: you get married, and you know, over time, you know,

31
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: hopefully you have something in you that you want to

32
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: see others succeed. And I love seeing young quarterbacks in

33
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: the NFL get the right coach, and Bonix could have gotten,

34
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: you know, countless coaches that couldn't help him. And he's

35
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: still he is still learning. But in that first half,

36
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: that was all on script, those first two or three series,

37
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: and bo Nix was great because he's now got his mentor,

38
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: he's got his kingpin, he's got Sean Payton. Now the

39
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: second half it's not on script. That's about talent, and

40
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert took over. Herbert's more talented, bigger, stronger. He's

41
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: just a more talented, experienced quarterback. In the NFL, but

42
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: both of these guys, these two teams last year were

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: thirteen and twenty one. I mean, think about that, and

44
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: right now they're eighteen and twelve and both are going

45
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. One got a coach and one

46
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: Sean Payton got a quarterback. And this tonight was a

47
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: PSA for the league. You get the right coach, you

48
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: get the right quarterback, you can turn it around in

49
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 1: one season. It doesn't even matter in the NBA if

50
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: you land Jannis or jokicch it takes years and years

51
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: to build up to be viable in Major League Baseball.

52
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: I mean, there's just some teams that can't afford it, right.

53
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: But in the NFL, Houston was a laughing stock, a

54
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: bottom three team in the league. To meet O'Ryan c J.

55
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: Stroud playoffs. The Chargers last year, I think by the

56
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: end of the year they had a team mutiny. They

57
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: were one of the three worst teams in the league.

58
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: This defense is all the same guys now. The offense

59
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: got Joe Alt and Laddi McConkie. No question upgrades, but

60
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: they're so beat up. Now they're using a defensive tackle.

61
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: Are the Chargers as one of their skill people, Matt Locke,

62
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: give me a break. They're using return guys and Quinton

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: Johnson still can't catch. I mean, this is the second

64
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: half is you know, Joel and Laddi McConkie have obviously helped,

65
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: but the Chargers are so beat up on the back

66
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: end of their defense, and they're beat up at tight end.

67
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: They didn't have Will Disley. You know, they don't have JK. Dobbins,

68
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: and you know there's still a draft away. They're about

69
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: six players away. They needed to tight end another running back,

70
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: although Gus Edwards had a great, huge run of the game.

71
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: But it just shows you why the NFL is king.

72
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: You just either get a coach, get a quarterback, or

73
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: Houston get both and you're a playoff team. And it's

74
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: just I've always called the NFL the League of hope.

75
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: But let's first start with the Chargers. They were what

76
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: did al Michael say tonight? I can't believe al Michaels

77
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: is this good at eighty. The guy is such a

78
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: talented guy. Al Michaels is still funny and quick, and

79
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: he and Herb Street sound like they like each other.

80
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: Al Michaels is so good at eighty years old, is insane.

81
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: He just signed for next year, by the way, but

82
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: you know that he had said at one point the

83
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: Chargers were like, oh, for their last eleven and games

84
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: decided by three points or less, they just don't know

85
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: how to win, you know, they just just don't know

86
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: how to win. And they take this team at the

87
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: end of last year. It was a disaster at the

88
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: end of the year, could have been the worst thing

89
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 1: in the league. Same guys on defense, and in fact

90
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: half the defense and guys in the back end are hurt.

91
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: Derwin James is healthy in carrying them, but they're all

92
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: banged up, and look at them. And it was such

93
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: a testament to Harbaugh's coaching, because, I mean, Harbaugh and

94
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: Herbert tonight won the game. Harbaugh's halftime adjustments and Jesse

95
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: Minter and then Herbert in the second half scrambling on

96
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: a bad ankle for a first down, that throw for

97
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: a touchdown in the end zone, moving to his left,

98
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: throwing it off his bad foot. It was just a

99
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: Herbert Harbaugh second half of just great coaching. Smart adjustments.

100
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: Herbert doing what he's doing, It's just it makes me

101
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: really happy. I feel really bad for Caleb Williams. None

102
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: of it is his fault. I just feel bad for

103
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: the kid. And maybe it's because in my life I've

104
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: had really you know, I've been very fortunate that I've

105
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 1: landed at good spaces, especially early in my career when

106
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: I didn't know what the hell I was doing. It's

107
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: just so important. I tell my kids this all the time.

108
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: It's not just about you. You're gonna hopefully find somebody

109
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: that can mentor you cares about your well being and

110
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: you know, in the job market, and they will make

111
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: the best out of you. And I feel like that's

112
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: what Jim Harbaugh is doing to Herbert, and that's what

113
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: Sean Payton's doing to bow Nicks. Both teams are a

114
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: draft away, right. Denver didn't have a ton of depth.

115
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: The Chargers need more weapons and a couple of corners.

116
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: But in the end of the half sequence was so

117
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: perfectly Harbaugh. He's competing to the very end. I mean,

118
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh is competing to the very end. And some

119
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: people say he's weird, he's intense. Okay, it's the NFL.

120
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: Belichick was intense, Dan Campbell's intense, John Payton's intense. So

121
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: into the first half, you know, they get that field goal,

122
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: and that's just Harriball battling to the end. So there's

123
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: a big difference between going in down what they would

124
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: have been and then the field goal. You got a

125
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: real football game, and trailing eight at half feels a

126
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: lot different than trailing by twelve. And I mean that

127
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: kind of momentum into the locker room changed the energy

128
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: and the juice, And I thought Denver had all the

129
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: juice in the first half and the Chargers had all

130
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: of the juice with that field goal going into intermission

131
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: in the second half, and the Chargers outscored the Broncos

132
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: twenty four to six once Hardball called that timeout end

133
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 1: of the first half and got the free kick before halftime,

134
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: twenty four to six. Just battling and fighting to the

135
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: very end. Herbert in the second half, by the way,

136
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: Jesus and he again he is working with return guys,

137
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: a first round receiver that can't catch a defensive lineman.

138
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: Back up running back Herbert in the second half eleven

139
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: fifteen two touchdowns, passer reigning of one forty two point

140
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: eight Jesus. I mean, it's just, it is just I

141
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: just isn't it crazy?

142
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: Is that?

143
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: You know Sean Payton takes this shipwreck Denver. I think

144
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: I like their GM, but it's a mess. They're in

145
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: dead cap hell in the AFC. And before the season started,

146
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: Vegas adam at five and a half wins, and I

147
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: thought that, I said it was my favorite double wind toadal.

148
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: I thought they would double that. I thought they'd get

149
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: in kind of the nine eight nine category. They're gonna

150
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. They're in with nine wins now, and

151
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: they'll they'll win one of their final three games, and

152
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: I think their cap of winning a playoff game. I

153
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: don't think Denver's capable of winning two or three, but

154
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: I think they're capable of winning a playoff game. I

155
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: feel the same way about the Chargers. They kind of

156
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: have to win one way. You know, they've got to

157
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: have Herbert be superman, They've got to have everybody healthy.

158
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's got this feel. Pittsburgh, Denver and the Chargers those

159
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: are one playoff win teams. Herbert finishes the night about

160
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: when is it twenty three to thirty one? Three hundred yards.

161
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: It is. It's just you know, remember a couple of

162
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: years ago and the media, you know, the media went

163
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: to a weird thing where it was very sensitive. And

164
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: I remember about three or four years ago, and the

165
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: media was just saying, Oh, these Thursday night games, they're

166
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: unfair to players. Oh give me a break. So I

167
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: called players, I talked to coaches, and the players I

168
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: talked to are like, we love Thursday night games. Usually

169
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: it's a division rival, so you don't have to do

170
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: a ton of film study. Like tonight, you're playing somebody

171
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, and it's usually a division game, so the

172
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: travel isn't too long. It's a two hour flight somewhere,

173
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: and you don't hit during that week, and then you

174
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: get almost a second by week. And the media was

175
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: freaking out about Thursday night games. We've had some sensational

176
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 1: Thursday night games. Tonight was sensational. I thought it would

177
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: be much sloppier. I thought Denver was so crisp in

178
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: the first half. Now in the second half, Denver, I mean,

179
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: let's face it, they aided the Chargers on that long drive.

180
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: They had a couple of guys off sides. That was

181
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: a huge break there. Were two big moments in the

182
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: game for me. That the end of the halftime kick,

183
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: and then Denver had a series of penalties as the

184
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: Chargers got that big drive which eventually ended up with

185
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: Herbert making that throw for a touchdown in the end zone.

186
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: But they have three or four defensive penalties and that

187
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 1: really gave them. They really seized momentum and you could

188
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: hear the crowd a little bit getting into it, and god,

189
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: that was just fun. Although my phone dranking, it's probably

190
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: justin Herbert. I'm sorry to be obnoxious. Can I be happy? Okay?

191
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: So a big topic of conversation before I get the

192
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 1: Chad Millman has been the NBA ratings this week, and

193
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: I saw JJ Reddick said tonight, you know the league

194
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: needs to be celebrated. No, the NBA needs to be audited.

195
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: Don't blame the fans because the ratings are down. If

196
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: you own a restaurant and people aren't buying certain items

197
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,719
Speaker 1: on the menu, change the menu. The audience is right,

198
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: the consumer's right. The NBA is celebrated too much. The

199
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: players are pampered and coddled and not called out enough.

200
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean good hell. Adam Silver two years ago said

201
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 1: our players are miserable. Twitter is making them miserable. Can

202
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: you imagine a football player saying that, give me a break.

203
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: The league is celebrated constantly. It needs to be audited,

204
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: It needs to be held accountable. Load management's crap. The

205
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: three point shooting is gross. In fact, did you notice

206
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: who talked about the three point shooting? Lebron James was

207
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: asked about the All Star Game changes and he dropped

208
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: an F bomb and said, here's what I notice. Teams

209
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: are shooting way too many threes. Lebron James said that

210
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: a guy that loves the game. Joe Mizzoula, the coach

211
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: of the Celtics, was asked this week about the ratings

212
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: and he said, yeah, I don't watch our game either.

213
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: So that's the championship coach and the best player in

214
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: the last twenty years criticizing the league from a position

215
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: of power, not seeking attention. In fact, Lebron didn't want

216
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: to go into it. He kept saying, I don't want

217
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: to get too into it. So the people that are

218
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: criticizing the NBA are not bringing a hatchet. They're not

219
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 1: anti this or pro nostalgia. When your stuff isn't selling,

220
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: change the menu. Rob Manford did, and Adam Silver needs

221
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: to for the record, when you make changes to your menu,

222
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 1: to your business, the consumer always responds, ohways, I mean

223
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: baseball was in a fifteen year drought. Rob Manfred made

224
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: two changes. The ratings went up the last two years.

225
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: This year they went through the roof during the postseason.

226
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: People want to watch sports. I want to watch the NBA.

227
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: I tried watching the championship NBA Cup Oklahoma City was

228
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: five to thirty two from threes. It was awful. It

229
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: was unwatchable. It was drack. So you know, nobody's against

230
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: the NBA. People at criticize it. Watch it. I watch

231
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: it all the time. I don't really get into it

232
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: until the football season's done. But you know by February,

233
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, you have the two weeks before the Super Bowl.

234
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 1: I start watching thirty minutes a night, forty minutes a night.

235
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: So I thought it was interesting that Joe Missoula and

236
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: Lebron James both came out and were critical esthetically of

237
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: the current product. It's not a good watch and when

238
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: something falls off the cliff in two years, three years,

239
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: got to look in the mirror. It's not about celebrating

240
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: it's about auditing. That's something baseball did recently and something

241
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: the NFL does annually. NFL is King for a lot

242
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: of reasons. One of the reasons the ability to self police,

243
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: self monitor and course correct. Well, it's the most wonderful

244
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,880

Speaker 4: Slash bball. Let's talk about the Chicago Bears. So they

272
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 4: lost to the Vikings.

273
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: I didn't think Sam Darnold played particularly well, but he's

274
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: getting the ball to TJ. Hawkinson, Jordan Addison, and Justin Jefferson,

275
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: so he's getting the ball to the right people. I

276
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: thought he was a little high, missed some throws, but

277
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: overall Minnesota was picked for third or fourth. I mean,

278
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: it's all gravy at this point. First, let's start with

279
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. There are a couple franchises in this

280
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: league that are just broken, and I think the Chicago

281
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: Bears are top of the list. It's a broken franchise.

282
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 1: The mccaskeys are arguably the worst owners in the league,

283
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: oldest and among the poorest. Really out of touch. Kevin

284
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: Warrens the president. I've been told for years, highly political.

285
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: Charles Robinson of Yahoo reporting today that you know somebody

286
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: that seeks power and to retain power. That's a little

287
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: what I was told years ago. Don't know him personally,

288
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: but that's what I've been told from two sources. I

289
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: trust Ryan Poles is young. You know, I'm hit and

290
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: miss on polls. I love the Monte Montes sweat deal,

291
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: the DJ Moore deal. I don't think he's the problem

292
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: in the organization. I think Ryan Poles is struggling with

293
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: the people above him. But a great example of the dysfunction.

294
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: So Matt Ebraflus, a defensive coach, was fired. Well, defensive

295
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: coaches don't have the offensive connections that offensive coaches do.

296
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: I mean, there is a reason Andy Reid keeps hiring

297
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: really good offensive coaches right like their offense. Now, Reid

298
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: does most of the play calling, but Doug Peterson got

299
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: a head coaching job. Matt Naggy got a head coaching job,

300
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: and by the way, got Mitt Trubisky to the playoffs twice.

301
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: So you can say all you want about Matt Naggy.

302
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: You die for Matt Naggy now in Chicago. And then

303
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: there's a reason that Belichick had to rely on Josh McDaniels.

304
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: When Josh left. You know, Bill was scrambling to find

305
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator, but Sean McVay can find one every

306
00:16:54,080 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: two years. So Thomas Brown was under Shane Waldron. Well,

307
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: Eberflus doesn't have a lot of great offensive connections, clearly

308
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: because when Shane Waldron left Chicago of Seattle, he was criticized.

309
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: They rolled their eyes at him. He went to Chicago,

310
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: it was a mess with Caleb Williams. Then Thomas Brown,

311
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: who's a bright young guy. He coached with the Rams,

312
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: but you know he is an interim head coach. He's had.

313
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,120
Speaker 1: This is his third different job this season with the Bears.

314
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: I mean, HR is probably asking him to slow down

315
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 1: so they can get his paycheck, right, I'm not going

316
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 1: to blame him, but eber flu selected this staff and

317
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: it's not very good. I think it's a broken franchise.

318
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: And you know, my take is, if you're really honest

319
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 1: about it, you know what they remind me of. I

320
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: was thinking about it tonight. They remind me a lot.

321
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: The Bears are the Chargers last season where they had

322
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: a talented young quarterback, some really nice pieces, but major

323
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: cultural issues and what did they do. They went and

324
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: got Jim Harbaugh to fix it. And that's why Mike

325
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 1: frabels the higher Vrabel is Dan Campbell less, reckless, He's

326
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh, but to this point hasn't been as successful.

327
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: He's a really smart guy. He's a culture changer. There's

328
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: no bullshit with him. He's very honest and very upfront,

329
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: and he got to an AFC championship, you know, with Tennessee.

330
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: So I just think Vrabel's the call here. Vrabel, you know,

331
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 1: and I've talked to Mike about this. Vrabel is the

332
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 1: kind of guy that will come in and the only

333
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 1: thing that would get in his way is a Kevin

334
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: Warren level executive that was trying to retain power. If

335
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: Frabel has some saying personnel, he's pretty good at that

336
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: and has a great relationship with the general manager who

337
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: he can answer to and trust I think Rabel could

338
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: win immediately. I think you know again, I'll say this,

339
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: the Bears have a Chargers feel now. The Chargers are

340
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: not going to go from what they were last year

341
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,959
Speaker 1: to a super Bowl. They need another draft. They have

342
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: to hit on another receiver, maybe another tight end, another

343
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: running back. They need more pieces offensively, and the Bears

344
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 1: with Rabel are not winning a super Bowl, especially out

345
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: of that division. And I think the Bears need to

346
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: shore up the offensive line, but more than that, you know,

347
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: maybe another edge rusher. More than that, I think it's

348
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: just a cultural modification is what they need. But it's rough.

349
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 1: I mean, you can say what you want about the

350
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: Jets and Woody Johnson, and I think he's one of

351
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: the weaker owners, but they have a good roster. Aaron's

352
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: played well in the last three to four weeks. He's

353
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: had one hundred plus passer rating I think on average

354
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: over the last four weeks. The Giants have issues, but

355
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: you know, there's some pieces there that defensive front, and

356
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: la Mars don't want to fire Brian Dable because they've

357
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: run through coaches, but the team looks like they've quit.

358
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: But with Chicago there's just I mean, there's just not

359
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: much to like. I like Montes Sweat and Jayalen Johns.

360
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: I like Caleb Williams. You know, DJ Moore, Swift, the

361
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: running back, there's some Pete Cole command, there's some pieces

362
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: I like, But I don't know what you do other

363
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: than hire Mike Vrabel. This is not a job for

364
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: a coordinator. Give me a break. You're not going to

365
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: get a Ben Johnson here, Bobby Slowick. It's not going

366
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,719
Speaker 1: to turn this thing around. You're a mile from that.

367
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: And I'll make this argument, I think, And I talked

368
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,199
Speaker 1: to Mike Vrabel about this, and my suggestion to him is,

369
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if I take a job this year,

370
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: I think next year you could have much more attractive openings.

371
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: If Joe Burrow is getting really tired of Zach Taylor,

372
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: the coach of Cincinnati, they won't fire him at the

373
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 1: end of this year. But if Joe Burrow makes demands,

374
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: Zach Taylor's in trouble next year. For Joe Burrow to

375
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: ream Zach Taylor out, knowing he's on TV the way

376
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: he reamed him out. Burrow's got no time for this

377
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: nonsense in Cincinnati. So that job could be open next year.

378
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: I think Mike McCarthy in Dallas, I think he's probably

379
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 1: saved his job, right, he's probably saved it. And if

380
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: Dallas can move Michael Parsons get a couple of first

381
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: round picks, hit on those you know, who knows. But

382
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 1: also I think that could be open. So you know,

383
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: seven different coaches get whacked every year. I just don't

384
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: like the job openings. I love Caleb Williams Chicago. To

385
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: me is it feels like quicksand for a coach. You know,

386
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: Jacksonville's got an opening. There's a reason everybody fails here

387
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. It just since Tom Coughlin left, it's just

388
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: dead coach walking. Nobody works there. So there's got to

389
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: be something systemic within the organization. And I think what

390
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: you're really seeing now. And I was having this discussion

391
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 1: this weekend with somebody I respect a lot, and he said,

392
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, you just you start looking around this league

393
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: and it's just the power of ten. There's about ten

394
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: good gms, ted good owners, ten good quarterbacks, ten good

395
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: left tackles, and I just don't like. If you're Mike Vrabel,

396
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: I don't like what's out there. I love Chicago, it's

397
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: a great city. They're good pieces. But man, anybody watching

398
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: this show, watching this podcast, or listening, it does not

399
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: matter how good the employees are. If ownership and management

400
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: is sideways, it doesn't matter. I've said this before. I've

401
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 1: been really fortunate. I had a really good ownership in

402
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: Las Vegas my first job. Obviously, ESPN and Fox are

403
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: well run companies. At Portland, I thought we had good ownership,

404
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: good management. I worked in Tampa for a couple of

405
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: years and really really talented people in the newsroom, photo journalists, producers, reporters, anchors.

406
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: It was not the employees. I thought management was a

407
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 1: circus and I'll just leave it at that, and you

408
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 1: couldn't overcome it. And it was a real learning moment

409
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: for me, is that the employee base was the best

410
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: I'd ever worked with. At the time, I thought there

411
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: was just so many talented people. Our sports department was

412
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: just really fun, clever, smart people. But you can't like

413
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,719
Speaker 1: in Chicago. It doesn't matter if Rabel's the coach and

414
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: he's trying to change things eventually, if people are political upstairs.

415
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's like, look at the Jets, they

416
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: fire Robert Sali the best coach on the staff. I mean,

417
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: going into a game against Buffalo, if they won it,

418
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: there they were in first place. I mean they fired

419
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas. Well, Douglas got Devonte Adams, who's playing great now.

420
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: Joe Douglas missed on a quarterback. But Joe Douglass. That

421
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: Jets roster they've got, dudes, I mean they really do.

422
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: They're going to get another very good first round pick

423
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: this year. They've got a left tackle for the future,

424
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: they've got their corner, they've got weapons. I mean they

425
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: can they can really be selected. The Jets could move

426
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: down in the first round and get four or five.

427
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: You know, if they moved down and got another second

428
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: round pick or a second and a fourth round pick,

429
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 1: you could have five new starters on the team next year.

430
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: And I think the Jets, I mean, they really have

431
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: their weapons. They have their left tackle, the Penn State kid,

432
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: a couple of good receivers, good corners, pass rushers. So

433
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: I mean, I I mean I thought saw when Joe

434
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 1: Douglas were capable.

435
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,120
Speaker 2: They're both out.

436
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 1: So there's nothing you can do if upstairs is messed up.

437
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: There's just in my experience in life. There's nothing you

438
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: can do, you know, it's I make picks blazing five,

439
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 1: and I had another terrible week. Generally, I've been doing

440
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: this Blazing five thing for like twenty years, and on

441
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: average I hit about fifty six percent, fifty five, fifty

442
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 1: seven percent. This is my worst year easily. I don't

443
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: know why. I've just struggled all year long. But I'm

444
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: actually it's funny because on the b preseason predictions for

445
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: division champions, I've actually had the best year I've ever had.

446
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: I had Buffalo, Kansas City, Baltimore and the Texans winning

447
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: their division. If Baltimore beats the Steelers Saturday, I'll be

448
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,679
Speaker 1: four for four. Heading to the last couple of weeks,

449
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: I had Philly, the Rams, Green Bay, and the Falcons

450
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: winning their divisions. Philly and the Rams du lead. Green

451
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: Bay and the Falcons still have a shot, although Atlanta

452
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: right now they'll beating the Raiders tonight. They got to

453
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: get quarterback solved. My two dark horse teams were Washington

454
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: and Denver. They'll both make the playoffs. So I actually

455
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: have in terms of predictions, I think I've had a

456
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: really good year. I don't know why. I'm struggling so much.

457
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 1: I've just been out of rhythm. You know. The weekends

458
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: I take favorites, they go belly up. The weekends I

459
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: take dogs. I have the wrong ones. But I love

460
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: doing it, and I always feel bad. I don't mind

461
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: losing money. I don't like anybody else to lose it.

462
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: But I've been picking football games for so long. You

463
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: know an old story. When I first moved to Las Vegas,

464
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: I had no money, I was out of college, and

465
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: I drove down to Vegas in a blue AMC Pacer

466
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,239
Speaker 1: that later caught fire. A couple of years later, on

467
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 1: Charleston and Oak Streets in Las Vegas, I had Texaco

468
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: station I pulled in my car was on fire. And

469
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: I remember when I first moved to Vegas, I'd never

470
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: met football games, and so I was a huge Pack

471
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: ten fan, and so I really started hitting on a

472
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: lot of Pac ten picks because all the games weren't televised.

473
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: I knew the Pacific Northwest teams really well because I

474
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: was from there. I remember one year, I think I

475
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 1: was like ten and one on Oregon State games. I

476
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: just could not miss on the Beavers. And I just

477
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: love picking football games. But I have stunk this year.

478
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 1: And what's interesting is that Nick Wright and Danny Parkins

479
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: at FS one have both been on fire, hitting like

480
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: sixty five percent. So congrats to those guys.

481
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:00,439
Speaker 2: You know.

482
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 1: My overall takeaway really on the playoffs this year is

483
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of surprises. I mean, right now,

484
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: I have If Baltimore beats the Steelers Saturday, I'll have

485
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: you know, six of the eight teams I picked to

486
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: win the division winning and Green Bay and the Falcons close.

487
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: What is pretty clear, and the reason I picked those

488
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 1: teams to win the division was like head coach and quarterback.

489
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: And so I think the one thing I look at

490
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 1: this year is a real positive. I think Caleb can play.

491
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: I think Jayden Daniels can play. I think Bone Knicks

492
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: can play. My guess is JJ McCarthy can play. I

493
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,959
Speaker 1: don't know what the hell's going on with Michael Pennix,

494
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: because I really liked him out of college. I thought

495
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: he was a bigger, stronger, better deep ball to and

496
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: Tua is more than capable, but he just can't throw

497
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 1: the ball deep down field. He's not good against pressure

498
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: or really elite defenses or in cold weather. You have

499
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: to qualify everything with Tua. I think panic Sort is

500
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:58,919
Speaker 1: a much better sharper, deep ball, stronger, longer, just a

501
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: bigger athlete. But I think we have a chance to

502
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 1: go five for five with quarterbacks. And this is not

503
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: a great quarterback year in college. But if the quarterbacks

504
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: go four for five or five for five this group

505
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks, it will be the third draft since around

506
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen where you've had multiple first round quarterbacks hit.

507
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: And I don't think we'll ever get to a saturation

508
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:29,199
Speaker 1: point where you know everybody's got their quarterback. But I

509
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: don't remember a time where there were this many good quarterbacks.

510
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, even Aaron Rodgers in the last

511
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: month has been unbelievable. Jordan Love Jyaln Hurts this weekend

512
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: was sensational. You know, bo Nix makes mistakes, but he's

513
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: clearly a franchise guy. His toughness, his athletic ability. He's

514
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: had a better arm I think in the pros and

515
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: I thought he had in college. So I think, big picture,

516
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: as the leagues become more have and have nots, I

517
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: think we had another bumper quarterback draft class. I only

518
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: saw JJ McCarthy in the preseason. But in the couple appearances,

519
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: I thought he was really quick, really nimble, and he

520
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: reminded me a little bit of Sam Darnold that he

521
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: was really aggressive. And I think Kevin O'Connell's proven the

522
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: Vikings head coach, he can coach a lot of that

523
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: out of you. And another part of this quarterback journey

524
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: is there's better quarterback coaches. I mean this, so I

525
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: think the guy down in Tampa, Liam Cohen under Baker Mayfield,

526
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: who was briefly in Los Angeles, I think he's going

527
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: to get looks. I think the quality of offensive coaching

528
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 1: has really improved. That's why you're seeing Donald and Baker

529
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: Mayfield a rebirth. I think there's sensational coaching offensively. I

530
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: didn't feel that fifteen years ago in the NFL. I

531
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: think it's everywhere, and I think the talent's everywhere. So

532
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: I mean, yesterday we had a really ugly one o'clock window.

533
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: It was the first time all year I was bored

534
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: watching the NFL where I thought, man, we just this

535
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: is just a batterly window. But I mean this weekend,

536
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: the college and the pro games this weekend starting Friday night,

537
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: Indian at Notre Dame. The next Friday, Saturday Sunday could

538
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: be the most sensational three day stretch of football any year,

539
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: and a lot of it is because of quarterback play

540
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: and very sharp offensive coaching. All right, Time for Sharper

541
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 1: Square my buddy Chad Millman, co host of the Favorites

542
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: All Odds provided by DraftKings. You know, listen, the college

543
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: football games this weekend won't get the NFL numbers because

544
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: nothing in the world does. But there's some heaters and

545
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: we'll get to that in about fifteen minutes. There's some

546
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: fascinating games. I mean, I'm sorry, it doesn't make any

547
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: sense because he's been so good. But if Ryan Day

548
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: loses home to Tennessee, it's gonna be a shit storm

549
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: in Columbus. It's gonna be crazy. So we'll get to

550
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: that in fifteen minutes. Let's do Sharper Square. I've had

551
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,479
Speaker 1: a terrible year. I've had my worst year ever doing this,

552
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: and I don't really know. I don't want to outthink

553
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: the room. I'm about fifty five percent every year. I'm

554
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: not a pro gambler, but I think I'm you know,

555
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: in the ballpark. I've been terrible this year, and I can't.

556
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: You know, I think a lot of it is I've

557
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: always liked value and underdogs, and it just weeked a week.

558
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: Some weeks I go dogs, favorites win, some week I

559
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: go favorites. So I'm just going to give you my

560
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 1: thought on this. The Chiefs are now three and a

561
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: half point favorites. It's more stay away now. But when

562
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: it was two and a half, even with Carson Wentz

563
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: potentially playing, I love Kansas City. I think Carson Wentz

564
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: for a week is fine for a season. You can't

565
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: trust his health, so I would imagine it three and

566
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: a half. The Sharps like the Texans. But if so,

567
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: I like the two and a half and three Kansas City. Now,

568
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: if I say I like Kansas City, is it square?

569
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: Totally square? Yeah?

570
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 5: The wise guys are playing the three and a half

571
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 5: because up until last weekend, anytime you're betting on Patrick

572
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 5: Mahomes as a more than three point favorite, you're making

573
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 5: a negative ROI bet he just has not won as

574
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 5: a favorite of more than three. Last weekend, obviously he did.

575
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 5: They were four and a half point favorites. They covered,

576
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 5: But even in that game, you saw the pressure getting

577
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 5: to Mahomes consistently. You saw them lose the Browns because

578
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 5: Jameis Winston had two interceptions in the end zone that

579
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 5: were from in the Chiefs end zone from about his

580
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 5: thirty yard line, so killing two drives. Plus they had

581
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 5: three other turnovers, including to open the game. You look

582
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 5: at that game, the defense gave up seven points, right,

583
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 5: and so that game was closer statistically than you would

584
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 5: imagine by.

585
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 2: The score itself. So there is going to be a sentiment.

586
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 5: You take the Texans at plus three and a half,

587
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 5: at two and a half, one hundred percent people were

588
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 5: still taking the Chiefs. That's why the number got all

589
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 5: the way up to three and a half.

590
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, So a prime example, the Steelers get beat and

591
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: pretty soundly by Philadelphia. But what's lost in that game

592
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,959
Speaker 1: because they had eighty yards in the first half and

593
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: only trailed seventeen thirteen in Philly. If Najee Harris doesn't fumble,

594
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: we got ourselves a football game. Yes, to give the

595
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: Steelers six and a half the you know what the

596
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: Ravens are. They got they're the Mike Tyson. They cross

597
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: their bullies first round knockouts against bad teams. You push

598
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: them back. You make them think Baltimore can get beat

599
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: by a lot of good teams. Pittsburgh pushes back. Tomlin

600
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: is a six and a half point underdog, So I

601
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: this to me is the steel of the week. Pittsburgh

602
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: plus six and a half in Baltimore Sharper square.

603
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, Wise guys love this bad and it's almost become

604
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 5: a blind bet in this series. Whise guys like Mike

605
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 5: Tomlin as an underdog. Anyways, you're right that game, Nijie Harris,

606
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 5: the Steelers were outplayed.

607
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 2: And in the middle of the third the game fumbled

608
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 2: the ball.

609
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 5: If he doesn't fumble the ball, they're on the sixteen

610
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 5: yard line. They're at least kicking a field goal to

611
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 5: make it a twenty sixteen game, or they're scoring a

612
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 5: touchdown to make it twenty twenty. Changes the game, right,

613
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin and Rob Ross spots any way

614
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 5: you slice and dice it. Mike Tomlin as an underdog

615
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 5: is the best coach in a generation against the spread.

616
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 5: He is best coach in a generation winning straight up

617
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 5: as an underdog in this series, specifically as a dog

618
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 5: of three or more versus the Ravens, he is six

619
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 5: and oh straight up, there are six and oh against

620
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 5: the spread. He's thirteen two and two against spread versus

621
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 5: Harbaugh when the line in this series is three or

622
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 5: more points the past twenty years, so it's the Harbaugh

623
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 5: Tomlin rain. The underdog is twenty three four and three

624
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 5: against the spread. It's twenty fifteen underdogs sixteen into sixteen

625
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 5: too and.

626
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 2: One against the spread.

627
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 5: So like, yeah, that there are times where you're nervous

628
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 5: about playing into these trends. And we talked about this

629
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 5: on the show last week betting the Steelers fading the Chiefs.

630
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,439
Speaker 5: Those were times we were nervous, Like it happens six

631
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 5: times out of ten. This time it's happening eight times

632
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 5: out of ten. So yeah, you're playing the Steelers.

633
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,760
Speaker 1: I like the forty nine ers plus one at the Dolphins.

634
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 1: I think one of the things that's become pretty clear

635
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: with the Dolphins is if they're not playing an oppressive

636
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 1: humidity at home, they get pushed around by more physical teams.

637
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: I think they're the ultimate finesse team in this league.

638
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: And you know, as I watched them against Houston, it's

639
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: just bubble screens. That's all they do. The two is

640
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 1: now throwing forty times a game. That's way too much

641
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: for two. With the teams like the Packers and the

642
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,919
Speaker 1: Eagles have scaled back with more talented quarterbacks to throw

643
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 1: twenty four times a game. I think the forty nine ers,

644
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: I think it comes down to pride. For brock Purty,

645
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,959
Speaker 1: it comes down to a contract. I like the forty

646
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: nine ers. Here sharper square.

647
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 5: Sharp ish, like the line opened one and a half.

648
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 5: It's been bet down obviously from mean one and a

649
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 5: half to one. For a minute, very hot minute, the

650
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 5: Niners were favorites and then it sort of bounced back

651
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 5: a little bit. But that money that's moving it is

652
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 5: professional money in favor of the Niners. Not a huge

653
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 5: sort of feeling on that game. They just sort of

654
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 5: think that the Niners are probably a more physical team.

655
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 5: Are they getting more healthy? They don't believe in the

656
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,360
Speaker 5: Dolphins is the bigger component of their thinking.

657
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: Okay, the Colts were dominating the Broncos until Jonathan Taylor

658
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: and it was a blowout. They go home now and

659
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: have to swallow three and a half. But the Titans

660
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: are they have Benchwill Levis. I was texting a GM

661
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: this week and I said, I think if you gave

662
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold. With the Colts, they have the Viking season.

663
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: I like their personnel. I mean, I haven't seen anybody

664
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:18,320
Speaker 1: this year, including the Chiefs, push the Broncos around, especially

665
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: in Denver. I mean it was a mismatch. Three picks

666
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: for bow Knicks. I think Indy, I don't care what

667
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 1: the line is. I think they're going to come back.

668
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I think they're I think Chris Ballard's jobs in the line,

669
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson's careers on the line, Shane Steichen with that

670
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: trick play that got a pick six. I think Indy

671
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 1: is inflamed, and I think they blow the Titans out

672
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 1: Sharper square.

673
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 5: So the wise guys are on Tennessee. This line was

674
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 5: at four and a half even when Will Levis was

675
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 5: possibly the quarterback. It's been beat down immediately with Mason

676
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 5: Rudolph as the quarterback. The Wise guys have liked the

677
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 5: Titans a lot this year. They've also liked the Colts

678
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 5: this year. Their biggest fear is betting Anthony Richardson as

679
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 5: a favorite. Like, if you want to talk about comps,

680
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 5: the comps for Anthony Richardson and his completion percentage Right now,

681
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 5: Tim Tebow and Akille Smith in the past twenty five years.

682
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 5: This season will go down as one of the worst

683
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:32,240
Speaker 5: in completion percentage because of how badly Anthony Richardson is playing.

684
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 5: And I think there was a sentiment after he was benched,

685
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 5: he came back and he looked like he was a

686
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 5: little bit more in control. They were putting him in

687
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 5: better positions. He was just awful against the Broncos. They

688
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 5: were winning that game in spite of him. And look

689
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 5: like I was on the Colts last week, Jonathan Taylor

690
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 5: dropping that ball was gut wrenching. I was on the

691
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 5: Steelers last week, Nigee Harris dropping that ball, well, and

692
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 5: this was all happening. If you're watching red Zone, this

693
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 5: is like boom boom boom. It was just like gut

694
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 5: punch after cup punch after gut punch. As a better

695
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 5: but you felt like and I felt like Colts had

696
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,399
Speaker 5: no chance to get back into that game after they

697
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 5: gave up the lead, because Anthony and Richardson can't win

698
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 5: you a game, so they're going to have to dominate

699
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 5: on the ground in order to cover this three and

700
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 5: a half. And at the end of the day, he

701
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 5: got to win by four points. That's a relatively big

702
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 5: number on what should be a run heavy game in

703
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 5: which the clock is running a lot. So I think

704
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 5: the wise guys are still like in Tennessee in the hook.

705
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 1: Part of me says I should love the Bears at

706
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: home plus six and a half against Detroit. Jared Goff

707
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: outside bad Weather, I defended Caleb Williams this week. He

708
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: has more touchdown passes than Justin Herbert and Kyler Murray,

709
00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,440
Speaker 1: more passing yards than Jalen Hurts, and hasn't had an

710
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: interception since Halloween. Is that if you just look at

711
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: the record, you would think he's awful and it's like, no, actually,

712
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: all things considered now that he's with the third coach

713
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: at home Detroit, defensively, I mean it's bad. It is.

714
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: I mean eight nine yards a chunk. I think I

715
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,720
Speaker 1: like Chicago at home plus six and a half sharper square.

716
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 5: Well, look, the wise guys like Chicago at home when

717
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 5: it was at seven and a half and seven And

718
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 5: this is one hundred percent a number play. You're not

719
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,399
Speaker 5: going to find anyone taking it at six and a half.

720
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,359
Speaker 5: If you're taking it at six and a half, We've

721
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 5: talked about this you're just not getting the best of

722
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 5: the number, and long term, that's a bad way to

723
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 5: try to win games. You might win once in a while,

724
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 5: but long term you want to be on the right

725
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 5: side of the number. So the wise guys took the

726
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 5: seven and a half. They took the seven. I think

727
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 5: this is a really tricky game. At six and a

728
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,760
Speaker 5: half is a home dog in the division. Of course,

729
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 5: I want to be on the Bears. I can't find

730
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 5: a way to get that. I'm not saying I'm going

731
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 5: to bet Detroit. But there's two schools of thought on

732
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 5: Jared Goff. Jared Goff outside is terrible. Jared Goff indoors

733
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 5: is unbeatable. Obviously that happened last week, so it's a hyperbole.

734
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 5: But he tends to cover when he is indoors, tends

735
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 5: to not when he is outside, and he is a

736
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 5: covering machine over the past five years. I look at

737
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 5: this in a different way. Sure, their defense is beat up,

738
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 5: but all they have to do is hand the ball

739
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 5: to Jamiir Gibbs. Because this Bears rush defense is just atrocious,

740
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 5: like putrid. They are giving up one hundred yards every

741
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,720
Speaker 5: single game no matter who they play. Saw it again,

742
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 5: last week against Minnesota. So I do worry that Detroit

743
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 5: is going to come out in a bad mood and

744
00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 5: try to prove that there's still the class of the NFC.

745
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,280
Speaker 5: Run the ball down the bear's throat, and it doesn't

746
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 5: really matter what Kayleb Williams does or what the weather is,

747
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 5: they might dominate this game. So I can't I can't

748
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 5: tell you at six and a half, you're making a

749
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 5: good call.

750
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: Okay, Rams is now only minus three. I would take

751
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: them against the Jets. It was three and a half.

752
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,760
Speaker 1: I think the Jets played the last two weeks. DeVante

753
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 1: Adams and Aaron Rodgers, you know, have clicked. But the

754
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 1: Rams are playing for the playoffs and the Jets are

755
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: playing for pride. I mean, between the documentary between Garrett

756
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: Wilson wanting a trade, the story about Woody Johnson's kids,

757
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 1: this has been a messy week for the Jets. I

758
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: can gladly swallow the three for a much better team

759
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: and a much more functional offense. Rams minus three sharper square.

760
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,799
Speaker 2: I mean why look, wise guys have been on the Jets.

761
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 2: Oh week.

762
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 5: The wise guys have been on the Jets for much

763
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 5: of the year, and much to their dismay. Jeff Ulbrick,

764
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 5: the coach, seems to find ways to play them out

765
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 5: of wins and covers and then make the stupidest mistakes

766
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 5: that actually leads them into a cover that they never

767
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 5: should have covered. Right last week, he's going for the

768
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 5: touchdown with a minute left when the Jacks have two timeouts.

769
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,800
Speaker 5: They end up covering the three point spread, winning by six,

770
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 5: when really he should have kneeled down and left no

771
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 5: time and kicked a field goal. Week before, making bad

772
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 5: decisions at the end of the game, they end up

773
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 5: losing the game to the Dolphins and not even covering

774
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 5: the three point spread because they lose by six in overtime.

775
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 5: So he's a menace when it comes to clock management,

776
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 5: and he's a menace for betters.

777
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 2: But the wise guys do love the Jets.

778
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:50,399
Speaker 5: Right now, Aaron Rodgers has been playing significantly better the.

779
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 2: Past two weeks.

780
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 5: You could argue, well, the old man went to Florida,

781
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 5: and when you're old and you're in Florida, you're going

782
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:56,920
Speaker 5: to feel better. And now he's got to come back

783
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,399
Speaker 5: and play in the cold in New Jersey. But there

784
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,319
Speaker 5: is something about the Rams and the fact that they

785
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 5: have to go into the cold too. Stafford does not

786
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 5: perform as well then. And also, this is a team

787
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 5: you get late in the year. You get teams that

788
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 5: are what I like to call good ish, right fifty

789
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 5: to sixty percent in terms of winning percentage, and they're

790
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 5: playing bad teams on the road. That is a recipe

791
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 5: for disaster in terms of covering the spread. Not saying

792
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 5: they're going to lose, but those games tend to be closer.

793
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 5: So the wise guys are definitely back in the Jets

794
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 5: this week.

795
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not prone to do this, but green Bay

796
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 1: minus fourteen against the Saints just screams take the Packers.

797
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: I thought their win at Seattle was so impressive because

798
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: I do think Seattle has excellent defensive coaching. This has

799
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: been a year of the favorites. I think the most

800
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: underrated player in the league is Jordan Love. I think

801
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: he's a magnificent talent. I think the Saints feel like

802
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 1: a dead franchise. I think green Bay still has a chance.

803
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,439
Speaker 1: They really believe it. I think they're a better team

804
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: this morning or this afternoon than Detroit. I don't like

805
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 1: fourteen point favorites, but they're covering and favorites are covering,

806
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 1: and I feel like I've got a ascending, young, healthy

807
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: team against the dead franchise. I think Green Bay is

808
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: one of the few places where home field is still

809
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 1: three to three and a half points sharper square.

810
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 5: Well, look, you're never gonna get a sharp confirmation on

811
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 5: a fourteen point favorite. There are two fourteen point favorites

812
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 5: this week, the Packers over the Saints the Bills over

813
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 5: the Patriots. There's been more of a conversation around the

814
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 5: Bills as fourteen point favorites. That line actually ticked up

815
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 5: to fourteen and a half, and that was very much

816
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 5: professionals betting on the Bills a team. Then it came

817
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 5: down then some professionals, not a whole lot of them,

818
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 5: but a couple of them were like, yeah, that's what

819
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:11,919
Speaker 5: half a point too far the Packers, Like, sure, there's

820
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 5: nobody who's thinking they want to bet on the Saints,

821
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,320
Speaker 5: but there's not a rush to the window on the Packers.

822
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,799
Speaker 5: Everything you just said, everyone agrees with.

823
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 2: It's why.

824
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 5: Actually, the wise guys were on the Packers last week

825
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:27,839
Speaker 5: against the Seahawks.

826
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: That was my favorite.

827
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, mine too. It's your only bet.

828
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,799
Speaker 5: I won last week and so they were on him

829
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 5: at two and a half. That was a great spot

830
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 5: for the Packers, right. They had just lost a really

831
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 5: hard game to the Lions, and I think that game

832
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 5: gave them the confidence that you just talked about. You

833
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 5: saw the mastery with which Lafour calls a game. Jordan

834
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 5: Love has been much more cautious with the ball, hasn't

835
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 5: been throwing interceptions. I think the Packers believe they are

836
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 5: in the same class as the Vikings and the Lions

837
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 5: and the Eagles, and I'd be hard pressed to disagree.

838
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 5: I think it's harder to win as to touchdown favorites

839
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 5: against a Saints team that like from a from a

840
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 5: from a wise guy perspective. They just don't like this

841
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 5: game as much as they would like the Bills and

842
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 5: the Patriots. And I can tell you why they like

843
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 5: the Bills against the Patriots if that would be interesting

844
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 5: to you.

845
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Please.

846
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 5: So this is the win, Josh Allen the MVP game. Right,

847
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 5: there's talk this week because Lamar Jackson threw five touchdowns

848
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 5: against the Giants that maybe he should be MVP. And

849
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 5: you saw the MVP odds shrink a little bit. The

850
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 5: Bills tend to blow these teams out anyways. Right, they

851
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,880
Speaker 5: are a team that has a winning record as big

852
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 5: favorites in these games in the division, outside the division

853
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 5: at home, they tend they don't play down to the

854
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 5: level of the competition. Their offense can do whatever it

855
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:08,240
Speaker 5: wants against the Patriots. If the Patriots are down early,

856
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 5: their record against the spread it's like seven and twenty

857
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,919
Speaker 5: one the past two years, like they are a terrible team.

858
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 5: They cannot recover. So if the Bills get out to

859
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 5: lead early, which they tend to do, it's a great spot.

860
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 5: The one concern is, you know, the Bill's secondary has

861
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,280
Speaker 5: a lot of injuries, but there's really no concerns about

862
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 5: the Patriots offense. They got Drake may who's slinging it

863
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 5: and trying his best. But right now Gerrod Mayo was

864
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 5: throwing Alex Van Pelt under the bus about their offense.

865
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 2: There's just a lot of turmoil there.

866
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 5: So the wise guys, if they're betting a big favorite,

867
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 5: they're more inclined to bet the Bills than the Packers.

868
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: All Right, I want to talk some college football now,

869
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 1: because I do think in Indiana, Notre Dame and a

870
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 1: lot of its weather, I think it's going to be

871
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,720
Speaker 1: pretty close. I think Notre Dame is a great run team.

872
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: Indiana is a kind of a peculiar unique run defense.

873
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,839
Speaker 1: I think really good coaches with time can employ, you know,

874
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 1: competitive strategies. We know that Ohio State in Columbus on

875
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,399
Speaker 1: a nice day to play football is better significantly. Notre

876
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: Dame doesn't have Ohio State's talent, and I also think

877
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: Indiana now has extra time to prepare. I think Notre

878
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 1: Dame has a ceiling offensively, whereas Ohio State doesn't. They

879
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 1: just played down to their competition. Notre Dame has a ceiling,

880
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 1: and I think Indiana is going to So I really

881
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 1: like Indiana plus seven. How do the wise guys view it?

882
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:49,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, look the numbers come down because wise guys are

883
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:55,280
Speaker 5: betting Indiana and Indiana's look been a covering machine this year. Yes,

884
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 5: obviously that Ohio State game was the biggest challenge. They

885
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 5: also didn't cover against Michigan, but that was at a

886
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 5: time when Michigan was starting to get better. And the

887
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,359
Speaker 5: next week they went on and they beat Ohio State.

888
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,320
Speaker 5: So that was a much more physical game. Ohio State

889
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 5: Indiana had some bad plays and they were outclassed, and

890
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:16,400
Speaker 5: you could see the talent difference.

891
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,800
Speaker 2: I'm with you. The wise guys are with you, and

892
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 2: the way.

893
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 5: Indiana matches up a little bit better with Notre Dame

894
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 5: and the time and look, you can't help but listen

895
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 5: to Kurt Signetti and know that he's playing this game

896
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 5: and has got his players playing this game with a

897
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:37,760
Speaker 5: huge chip on their shoulder.

898
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 2: And we've talked about this.

899
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 5: One of the reasons Indiana won this year and why

900
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 5: it was able to achieve when other teams that are

901
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 5: leaning into the portal weren't able to achieve, is because

902
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 5: they brought in grown up college football players. They didn't

903
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 5: bring in five star recruits who are going to be

904
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 5: there for a year and go to the NFL. They

905
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 5: brought in guys who are just really good at college football.

906
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 5: And this is a great college football game. And there

907
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 5: is a nuanced difference when I say a college football

908
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,080
Speaker 5: game here, that's the style of game this is gonna be.

909
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 5: It's going to be physical, it's going to be about execution,

910
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,759
Speaker 5: it's going to be about not necessarily the best athletes,

911
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 5: but the people who do their jobs the best.

912
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 2: So I love this game for Indiana.

913
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 1: I like the under on Clemson Texas, mostly not because

914
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,359
Speaker 1: Texas is going to score a ton. I don't think

915
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: Clemson can score much on Texas. I'm gonna take Texas

916
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 1: minus twelve. I really feel it has a chance to

917
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:40,919
Speaker 1: be thirty to ten. I think the Texas defense is sensational,

918
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 1: and I think the Clemson offense it's almost like that

919
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,800
Speaker 1: SMU game felt like their bowl game. I think both

920
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 1: SMU and Clemson are going to get totally outclassed in

921
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: their bowl games. I like the under, but I'm gonna

922
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: take Texas minus twelve. I think this. Remember Clemson doesn't

923
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 1: go to the transfer portal. They have holes. Yeah, Texas

924
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 1: out recruits them and goes to the transfer portal. And

925
00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: also Texas's offense over the last three weeks, I don't

926
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: think they'll pause. If quin your struggles, I think they'll

927
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 1: go to Arts Manning. I don't think they'll pause going forward.

928
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 1: I like Texas to roll here sharper square.

929
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 5: Totally sharp, Like if you're looking I'm looking in the

930
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 5: Action app right now. It's just checking it out and

931
00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 5: you can see in the app, you can see the

932
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,880
Speaker 5: betting tickets and you can see the money percentages on

933
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 5: each side, and betting tickets is usually an indication of

934
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 5: the public. That's the squares who are betting ten dollars

935
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,920
Speaker 5: twenty dollars, and there's a lot of volume of tickets.

936
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 5: Money usually represents where the wise guys are. So the

937
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 5: tickets right now are on Clemson, the money is on Texas.

938
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,319
Speaker 5: And I agree with you, and the wise guys agree

939
00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:01,839
Speaker 5: with you. That defense they have is us fierce, Like

940
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:07,400
Speaker 5: they did a job on Georgia. And if Texas's offense

941
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 5: could execute a little bit better, then we wouldn't be

942
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 5: having this conversation about who's the who is the SEC

943
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 5: champion would have been Texas. So, like, that defense is

944
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 5: so freaking good and it's a veteran defense. Again, we're

945
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 5: talking about like guys who've been playing college football for

946
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,719
Speaker 5: a while, and I think that's an advantage here.

947
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: So the game, I'm going to ask you to handicap.

948
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,320
Speaker 1: I don't get the line. So the line is telling

949
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,400
Speaker 1: me Ohio State's gonna win because it hasn't moved much.

950
00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 1: So Tennessee's defensive line is significantly better than Ohio State's

951
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 1: offensive line, meaning Ohio State's gonna have to throw and

952
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: it may only be fifteen degrees. But this line is

953
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 1: telling me that out after that Michigan loss, Ohio State

954
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,279
Speaker 1: is pissed and Ryan Day's jobs on the line, and

955
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: Josh Heipels isn't and it's in Columbus and it is

956
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:09,520
Speaker 1: a warm weather SEC team, So the line is telling

957
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: me that Ohio State's gonna win this comfortably. That's what

958
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,560
Speaker 1: it's telling me. Otherwise, when it came out seven and

959
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 1: a half, the Sharps would have jumped all over this.

960
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 1: I mean, Tennessee's the best rushing team in the SEC

961
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: going into cold weather. It just screams to you, low scoring,

962
00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 1: take the points. But the line's not moving, and that

963
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,400
Speaker 1: tells me the Sharps like Ohio State, do they?

964
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 2: Yeah?

965
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, look, it's settled in where it's at, right,

966
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 5: and that is because it's been It's kind of the

967
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:44,359
Speaker 5: advantages is not for Tennessee because of some of these

968
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 5: situations that you just talked about, And there is some

969
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 5: feeling that this is such a desperate spot for Ryan Day.

970
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 5: It's been seven and a half almost since it opened.

971
00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:01,400
Speaker 5: It was at six and a half for about thirty seconds. Wise,

972
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:05,320
Speaker 5: guys took the six and a half. They bet Tennessee

973
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 5: at six and a half, right, but there was so

974
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,719
Speaker 5: much other sentiment coming in on Ohio State that it

975
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 5: moved up.

976
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 2: So Ryan Day is in a spot. And we've talked

977
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:16,480
Speaker 2: about this.

978
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 5: There was a story in the Wall Street Journal today

979
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 5: about Ohio State fans people calling in to local radio

980
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:31,280
Speaker 5: about Max Crosby, who know the Lions, the Raiders defensive

981
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 5: lineman who's out for the year. On his podcast, he's

982
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 5: a massive Ohio State fan, talking about how he wants

983
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 5: the team to lose so they get rid of Ryan Day.

984
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:44,719
Speaker 5: That is a weird thing to be talking about when

985
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 5: you've got a coach who has won as much as

986
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 5: he has. But I think you and I agree every

987
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,919
Speaker 5: game for him is going to be a must win game.

988
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,919
Speaker 5: And unless they win the championship or they get there

989
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,160
Speaker 5: and they are so dominant, and he puts himself in

990
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 5: a position even if they lose, it's a way to

991
00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:07,480
Speaker 5: rebuild the goodwill. It's a Michigan or bust program. And

992
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 5: he hasn't beaten them, and they haven't gotten over it,

993
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:10,400
Speaker 5: you know.

994
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 1: I think sometimes one of the things I love about

995
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:16,840
Speaker 1: sports is when there's cultural changes. I like to be

996
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 1: I like to predict what they are. I love the

997
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 1: theories and my systems on like what's changing. So something's

998
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 1: happening in college football, and college football fans don't yet

999
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: know it. So in the NFL, it's almost understood that

1000
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 1: you've got to give a staff a couple of years, right, Like,

1001
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 1: there's just it's just really hard. The margins are thin. Well,

1002
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,800
Speaker 1: I think the Ohio States and the Georgia's and the

1003
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 1: Texas fans. You know, you've always been able to line

1004
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 1: up and just beat teams. And one of the reasons

1005
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,880
Speaker 1: is over a long season is your backups were as

1006
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 1: good as their starters. And football's regulated the level levels

1007
00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 1: of violence. So there's college and pro. There's injuries, but

1008
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:03,360
Speaker 1: the transfer portal and NIL has eliminated depth at the

1009
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,880
Speaker 1: blue bloods Georgia, Texas, Clemson. So when you do suffer

1010
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: injuries and the season is now longer than ever, your

1011
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 1: backups are produced starters, that's all they are. And so

1012
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: these Ohio States and these big Notre Dame, these big

1013
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: traditional powers as the season goes on, I mean, look

1014
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: at look at our twelve team playoff. Arizona States in IT,

1015
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 1: SMUs in IT, Boise States in IT, like, and these

1016
00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: these are live dogs like and so I don't think

1017
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 1: quite college football fans understand not only are players getting

1018
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: paid that it looks more like pro football, but your

1019
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 1: backup stink just like pro football. Detroit's defense now has

1020
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 1: six backups. It's terrible. A month ago it was excellent.

1021
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 1: And so what and what what creates that the salary cap?

1022
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:57,360
Speaker 1: You have bad backups in the NFL? Nobody has depth

1023
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL. You either like Philadelphia's got great front

1024
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: line starters. AJ Brown's out. It's not the same offense. Right,

1025
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley's out, it's not the same offense. We've almost

1026
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,800
Speaker 1: understood that in pro football you need your starters. And

1027
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: when you get injury plagged Buffalo Detroit's defense, you're like,

1028
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 1: what the hell's going on? Well, everybody knows you don't

1029
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 1: have good college That was never the point. Top ten

1030
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: teams just had better backups. I mean, eighty five scholarships

1031
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,720
Speaker 1: allows you to have four pro offensive tackles. If you're

1032
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 1: Ohio State, now they have two. One gets hurt, you

1033
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:31,560
Speaker 1: move a guard to left tackle. They're all lion stakes.

1034
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 1: It's Iowa at best.

1035
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,320
Speaker 5: So you're you're totally right, that's an on the field problem,

1036
00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 5: but culturally for fandom, yeah, the beauty of college football,

1037
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 5: it's always been Michigan Ohio State rivalry weekend. You know,

1038
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 5: Alabama Tennessee or Alabama Auburn. You know these games they

1039
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 5: had so much much meaning because there was a lot

1040
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 5: on the line.

1041
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 2: You couldn't lose that game.

1042
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 5: I think what Ohio State is struggling with and what

1043
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 5: a lot of schools will struggle with in the future,

1044
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 5: is you focus so much on that one rivalry game

1045
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,920
Speaker 5: and that's all you care about. Because college football has

1046
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:22,840
Speaker 5: always been so provincial. Now it's a national game. The

1047
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 5: SEC is spread out all over, The Big Ten is

1048
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:31,000
Speaker 5: literally nationwide. These are the only two conferences that really

1049
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 5: kind of matter. And so the provincial, local rivalries that

1050
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 5: college fan bases have built their mindset on, have built

1051
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:45,200
Speaker 5: their self worth on, have built their fandom on. They

1052
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 5: need to move on from those really meaning anything because

1053
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 5: they kind of don't. If Io State loses to Michigan

1054
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 5: for the next ten years, but they win the national

1055
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 5: title in five of those years, is that going to

1056
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 5: be better or worse? As a fan Like, they need

1057
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 5: to come to grips with a new reality of what

1058
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,800
Speaker 5: these rivalry games mean in terms of the broader picture,

1059
01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 5: because they used to mean everything. It wasn't just about

1060
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 5: beating Michigan. It was about beating Michigan and what it

1061
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 5: meant for winning the Big Ten and going to the

1062
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 5: Rose Bowl, or what it meant for winning the Big

1063
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 5: Ten and then being in the College Football Playoff or

1064
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 5: winning the BCS and getting a better rating.

1065
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:24,240
Speaker 2: Those things don't matter anymore.

1066
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 5: So the rivalries and the expectations for what these rivalries

1067
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 5: mean need to be adjusted. I also think it's just

1068
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 5: going to diminish the value of those games for fans.

1069
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 5: My kid, he's going to be in college next year.

1070
01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 5: He's gotten into Indiana, he got into Penn State, wherever

1071
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 5: he decides to go. Are the rivalries for those schools

1072
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,280
Speaker 5: going to mean as much to him twenty years from

1073
01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 5: now as they do to me and my friends who

1074
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 5: also went to Indiana?

1075
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 2: Probably not.

1076
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: Do you have an NFL bet this weekend that you

1077
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 1: would label your favorite.

1078
01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 5: H Well, look, I'm middle Kansas City, So I bet

1079
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 5: Kansas City plus two and a half on Sunday night

1080
01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 5: and then and you mean you know it was plus

1081
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 5: two and a half, like on Monday morning. I'm sorry

1082
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,520
Speaker 5: when the news about what was happening with Holmes was

1083
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,800
Speaker 5: still unclear. The Chiefs were two and a half point underdogs,

1084
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 5: so I bet him two and a half, and then

1085
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 5: when it became clear that he was going to be playing.

1086
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 5: This was yesterday afternoon, the game got up to three

1087
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 5: and a half. I bet the Texans at plus three

1088
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 5: and a half. So the majority of my money is

1089
01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 5: trying to get that middle right. But I also bet

1090
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 5: the Jets three and a half. That's one that I like.

1091
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 5: I really like the Steelers at six and a half.

1092
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:45,720
Speaker 5: So if I like, I'll put in my five favorite picks.

1093
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 5: The Steelers will be in there. The Jets will definitely

1094
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:54,439
Speaker 5: be in there. Dallas I bet at four and a half.

1095
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 5: I like Dallas a lot against Tampa. I think there's

1096
01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 5: a lot of inflation this week, and I think that's

1097
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 5: one of the bigger games where Dallas has been playing better.

1098
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 5: Like the last three weeks, last four weeks, that Cincinnati

1099
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:11,760
Speaker 5: game kind of looks like a fluke, right. They lost

1100
01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:14,920
Speaker 5: that game, They've won the three other games. Micah Parsons

1101
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,960
Speaker 5: has seven and a half sacks since he's back. Deron

1102
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 5: bland Is back in the secondary. That defense is getting

1103
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 5: a lot better. Cooper Rush at Home Controlled Environment. Tampa

1104
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 5: Bay just put up forty on the chargers that inflated

1105
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 5: that line a little bit so. Dallas is another one

1106
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:33,400
Speaker 5: that I'm un paying attention to.

1107
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 1: Chad Millman Sharper Square, I love it, buddy.

1108
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 2: Great to chat with your buddy.

1109
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 4: The volume
