1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: For seven home of the Black and Goals Steelers Nation 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: Radio buying Dale lowly. He is Matt Williamson and Matt 3 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,639 Speaker 1: in his Week six kicked off last night with a 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: seven win by the Washington kind of Yeah. Both teams 5 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: got more which was more so than the previous week. 6 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 1: Was two more touchdowns in them scored the previous week. 7 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: Uh so some interesting games this week. Let's talk about 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 1: what's happening here in Week six around the NFL our 9 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: first game is uh the three and two Ravens at 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: the four and one Giants Baltimore favored by five and 11 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: a half on the road, the over under his forty 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 1: four and a half. Uh, this is wink Martindale. That's 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,639 Speaker 1: what's gonna bring up. I mean for teams that don't 14 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: see Lamar often or ever, he's a shock to the system. Yeah, 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: and you still will be for the players, but not 16 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: for the defense. The coordinator he'll know a little bit 17 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: about him. It's just a matter to your point, you know, 18 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: seeing it on film versus seeing it the first three 19 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: or four times that he takes off and starts running 20 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, he's passed. But wait, you spend 21 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: in those meetings where things aren't going well, and Harbaugh 22 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: is like, damn, Lamar, it always does this, you know. 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean you know all the where all the bones 24 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: are buried and all those type of things when you're 25 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: on staff. Um, I still don't know if that's enough, though. 26 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: I think this is. It's it's almost Halloween there. There's 27 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: some things around the league. I've been saying this week 28 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: they're gonna turn back. And the Giants have played a 29 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: ridiculously easy schedule. I know, I know, I think they 30 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: turned into a pumpkin, and hey, God bless him. They've 31 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: won the games, but they played a ridiculously simple If 32 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: they had played the Steelers schedule to this point, we'll 33 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: be talking about them like the teams last night or 34 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: how people are talking about Steelers. Yeah, I mean it's 35 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: not they're just not very talented. Um. Lamar Jackson his 36 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: twelve and oh is the starting quarterback against NFC East 37 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: teams in his career, the longest or that's the second 38 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: longest interconference wind streak to start a career since the 39 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy NFL merger him every four years. I don't 40 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: think that changes in this one. Um, We'll see Jackson 41 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: seventeen seven and two against the spread on the road 42 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 1: his career as well. So people are inflating the Giants. 43 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: What's the New York market? Yeah, George back, get out 44 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: of here. Giants turned into a pumpk in this week. Yeah. Uh, 45 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: the both writers picking on looking here at the ESPN 46 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: picks picking the Ravens. Eric Moody picking the Ravens one. 47 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: He thinks that the Giants cover uh, Seth Walter picking 48 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: the Ravens sixteen, which means they don't cover. Eileen Towards 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: More Towards Walters. You know, all right, Another a f 50 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: C North game. Here's out of the out of the gate, 51 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: the two and three Bengals at the two and three Saints. 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: It's a one o'clock kickoff, Cincinnati favored by two, the 53 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: over under forty three. There's a lot of injuries out 54 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: there that are important. Lattin More, Higgins, Winston, you know, like, 55 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure who we're gonna see. Michael Thomas 56 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: tough place to play. I think the L s U 57 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: connection goes back to the Bayou, though, and wins this 58 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: one pretty handily. I think, since he's improving. I do, 59 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: although I don't know that they played great last week 60 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: against No, they don't they can't run. Don't think they 61 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: can't run the ball. I think New Orleans pass rush 62 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: will give them fits. I agree with that Cam Jordan 63 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: and company are gonna get after him. Um, you know 64 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: they're missing Higgins is a big deal. It's a huge 65 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: seaboard double and Chase like crazy, and Higgins has taken advantage, 66 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: but he's not healthy. I think the Bengals d though, 67 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: is probably the best of four units. Probably so, although 68 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: you know, I mean it's I think it's close with 69 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: them and the same. Yeah, that Saints offense so scares me. 70 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: It's the Andy Dalton revenge game is to Trey Hendrickson 71 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: revenge game. Like there's all kinds of These two teams 72 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: have been trading players back and forth. Here a little 73 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: bit this LSU connection to going back to the Bayou. 74 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm picking the Bengals and you said they're their favorite, right, 75 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: their favored by two? Yeah, tough ways to play the 76 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: both the writers picking the Bengals. It is very loud 77 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: there by the way. Bengals one says Moody, Walter says 78 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: Bengals thirty nineteen. Okay, No, I don't think it's blow 79 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: out either. U the three and two Jets are at 80 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: the three and two Packers, who had both of those 81 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: teams at three and two at this point. That's a 82 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: one o'clock game. Green Bay favored by seven at home. 83 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: The over under his forty five absolutely could eat these words. 84 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: But I don't think the Jets turned into a pumpkin 85 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: and they keep it close. I think that Green Bay 86 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: has got some issues their defense. Anybody out there, anybody 87 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: out that's that's my point. I mean, I think it's 88 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: like a seventeen ten game or twenty seventeen game. You know, 89 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: they win, but I don't think they blow their doors off. 90 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: You know, at the end of the day, I'll take 91 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers over Zack Wilson and Green Bay about it. 92 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: But I just don't think that I'll take the points under. 93 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur. The green Bay is tenano outright and against 94 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: the spread following a loss. Okay, so yeah, there's that 95 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: they've covered. The green Bay has won and covered twelve 96 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: straight games following a loss. That's the longest streak by 97 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: any team since the back Both picking the both writers 98 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: picking the Packers, Moody picking three, So he thinks that 99 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: the Jets cover. Walter picking a low score game, but 100 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: he thinks the Packers cover. Okay, Okay, I have a 101 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: little closer, big match up here. The four and one 102 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: Vikings are at the three and two Dolphins. This is 103 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: the line that doesn't make any Minnesota favored by three. 104 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: I guess if you know, that means if it were 105 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis, Uh, the Vikings to be favored by six, 106 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: but the over unders forty five and a half. Skyler 107 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: Thompson is going to start at quarterback. Um. I mean, 108 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: I think Minnesota is a good team. I mean just 109 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: because there's four and one. I don't think they're like 110 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: one of the top five teams. No, I don't think 111 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: so either. But I think they're top tennis, top twelve. 112 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: They're going to playoffs, and you know they're they're improving. Um. 113 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: I don't trust the quarterback though in Miami, not at all, 114 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: at all at all. I know Miami is a brutal 115 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: place to play, but it's got to be cool and 116 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: down a little bit in Miami by now, isn't it. 117 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, but um, I think I 118 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: think they win by ten. It's not a Monday night 119 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: games for Cousins. But Minnesota is one in five against 120 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: the spread in its last six road games. Really go 121 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: in two this season. That could be kind of a 122 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: Cousins thing too. That could be kind of a Cousins thing. Yeah, 123 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't travel well. Uh. Moody picking the Vikings one 124 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: twenty seth Walter picking an upset Dolphin twenty three Vikings 125 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: seventeen Dolphins. These not great though, No, I don't think 126 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: it is. I have a hard time seeing the Dolphins 127 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: when they came. The forty Niners come cross country again. 128 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: They were just in Carolina last week. They come back 129 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: across again this week to Atlanta. Yeah, the three and 130 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: two forty Niners at the two and three Falcons. Uh. 131 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: They spread a San Francisco by five, the over under 132 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: forty four and a half. The Falcons have rushed for 133 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: at least a hundred and fifty yards in every game 134 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: this season, no matter who the running back is, it's 135 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: just and they stick with it. And they put a 136 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: lot of big people. Um Bosa probably won't play. My 137 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: co host on the podcast, a big Niners guy, and 138 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: he said there's a chance their entire starting d line 139 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: is out everyone's on the injury report, but it's a 140 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: really deep group. I think Atlanta turns into a pumpkin. 141 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: I think that they go back to reality and we 142 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: look at them as a bad team, a worse than 143 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: Steelers type of The Falcons are the only team that 144 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: are undefeated against the spreads because everyone thinks they're horrendous 145 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: and they're just below average right now, only two teams 146 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: in the last decade have started six and oh or 147 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: better against the spread to start a season. That would 148 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: be one Cowboys theen Chiefs more. But Vegas things quick, 149 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: they drink and they know things. Uh. Moody picking seven seventeen, 150 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: Seth Walter picking an upset against Seth twenty to nineteen 151 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: Falcons over the Niners cover on the road. The forty 152 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: Niners haven't given up more than nineteen points in a 153 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: game this season, right I think it's in the nineteen 154 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: came against Chicago in Week one when you know a monsoon. Yeah. 155 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: I can't see Atlanta even if they have cow pits 156 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: or whatever. I mean. I just they score a bunch 157 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 1: of points to get you. I don't think Atlanta's is 158 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: particularly good stopping the round against those guys. Yeah, um, 159 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: let's see here. You got the two and three Patriots 160 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: at the two and three Browns, Cleveland favored by two 161 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: and a half. The over under forty three and a half. 162 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: I've been talking about turning into pumpkins. I think Bailey's 163 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: appy is a pumpkin and turns into a pumpkin. There's 164 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: no doe. I don't know. I don't know that he 165 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: gets a chance to throw the ball ten times in 166 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: this game because the Browns run defense is abysmal. Um. 167 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: I also think Brissette might kind of turn into a pumpin. 168 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: I guess who drafted him. You know, it's kind of 169 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: like the Wink Norton Norton Didal thing we have talked about. 170 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: He knows exactly what Brissette likes to do and what 171 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: he doesn't. I expect this to be a really ugly, 172 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: low scoring game, Chubb and Stevenson back and forth, But 173 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: I think New England wins. Matt If I'm gonna ask 174 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: you a question, trivia question, how many tackles does Myles 175 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: Garrett have this season? Now? He just a game ten 176 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: on the nose, ten tackles in three sacks. I never 177 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: want to hear his name an NFL Defensive Player of 178 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: the Year in the same sentence again, he's a one 179 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: dimensional player who can't He's does nothing to stop the run, 180 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: does nothing to elevate that defense. He's he's a fraud. 181 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: See what I think is funny is analytics are great. Hey, 182 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: I like them all the time. You can go too far, though, 183 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: ye stopping the runs on important? Where does he get 184 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: a bunch of small little guys flying around the cover? 185 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: Who cares who we have a defensive tackle? I mean 186 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: the Chargers couldn't run against anybody all year and gashed you. 187 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: They were averaging forty two rushing yards per game. But 188 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: Belichick looks at defense and be like, they don't they 189 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: created holes for themselves. I'm just gonna attack them. Yeah, Bailey, 190 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: that they may run. They may run the wing t 191 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: this weekend, right, just to eliminate the quarterback position. A 192 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: bring all your big guys out in the We're gonna 193 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: run against them anyways. Yeah, I mean it's to that point. 194 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: So I think that England wins that game. I do too. Um. Yeah. 195 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: Romandre Stevenson, by the way, was averaging five and a 196 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: half yards rushing carry. The Browns are giving up five 197 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: point three two. Just awful. I mean, the Steelers allowed 198 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: five rushing five yards per carry last year, and we 199 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,599 Speaker 1: know how bad that run defense was. These guys have 200 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: been worse worse again against the Chargers team. You can't 201 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 1: run into anybody. Yeah, um Moody picking the Patriots sixteen 202 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: Seth Walter again, sixteen Browns over the Patriots. Who was 203 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: favored in this game? I missed that part. Browns by 204 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: two and a half. I'll gladly take the points. Oh yeah, 205 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: gladly yeah. Uh. The two and three Jaguars are at 206 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: the two two and one Colts. This is another line 207 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense to Indianapolis. Favored by two, the 208 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: overunder is forty two. The coach smacked them earlier this year. 209 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 1: They smacked them in the last game last year. Here's 210 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: the thing. So the Colts in the last decade since 211 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: two thousand twelve are three and eight against the Jaguars 212 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. In Indianapolis there eight and two. It's a 213 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: very home dominated series. Maybe that makes the line add 214 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: up a little bit more. I think Jacksonville is a 215 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: better team and they just beat him. The Jaguars last 216 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 1: The Jaguars last one Indianapolis in two thousand seventeen. That's 217 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: when the jag when the Jaguars were actually good year 218 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: in that whole stretch. Um, and maybe there's something to that. 219 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean, Vegas apparently agrees, But I just think on paper, 220 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: Jackson is much better. I think so too. I think 221 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: they win the game, but after watching them lose to 222 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: Houston last week, I have no faith in the Jaguars. Yeah, 223 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,599 Speaker 1: I think they're struggling more than I expected. Yeah, Indianapolis 224 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: has gone under in ten straight games because points. Yeah, 225 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: that's one shy, the longest streak in the last thirty 226 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: five seasons. That shark at least didn't at least you 227 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: would think you just handed to him a thousand dollars. 228 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: Moody picking the Colt four seth Walter picking the Jaguars 229 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: seven seth was a little while. That's adamant. That's a 230 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: statement there. Seven seven. I'm closer to him than the 231 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: other one. Uh. You got the two and three Arizona 232 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: Cardinals at the two and three Seattle Seahawks is say, 233 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: four o'clock game on Fox, Arizona favorite on the road 234 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: by two and a half. The over under his fifty 235 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: and a half. Yeah, I think every every Seahawk and 236 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: Lion game is over over over over, especially Seahawks, Like, really, 237 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: the Seattle wins half place to play better, coach, quarterbacks 238 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: playing better. I mean, their defense is horrible, but losing 239 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: penny doesn't change my opinion. How about this stat So 240 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: everybody's complaining about the Steelers first quarter offense this year, 241 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: right right? The Cardinals have been outscored thirty eight to 242 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: nothing in the first quarter this season's five games, so 243 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: they're at least behind by a touchdown in the first 244 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: quarter of every game. They're the only team in the 245 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: league that has scored a point in the first quarter. Point. 246 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: The Seahawks have scored forty one points in the first 247 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: quarter of this season. That's the second most in the league. Yeah, 248 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: it's get you talk about loud places of play, you know, 249 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: you get get down on the first right, right, right, 250 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: it's nothing after the first quarter in Seattle. Good luck 251 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: both both guys picking the Seahawks. Seven says Moody, thirty 252 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: three twenty seven says Seth Walter. So both guys, both 253 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: teams are both guys going over. Yeah, boy, and it's 254 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: a high overrunner. I don't understand why the why Seattle's 255 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: a dog at home four o'clock game the one in 256 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: four Panthers who just got rid of their head coach 257 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: at the two and three Rams Love Ram's favored by ten, 258 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: the over under just forty one. P. J. Walker starts 259 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: the game for the for the Panthers, who also have 260 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: a bunch of injuries in the back end of their 261 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: their defense. I heard a stat the other day though, 262 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: the last five teams that have changed coaches and we're 263 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: then double digit underdogs the next that week covered Yeah, 264 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: I can see that, and I'm gonna take the points here. 265 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: I was looking at the V O A this or 266 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: not vo I was looking at E P A. I mean, basically, 267 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure they both say the same story. But there's 268 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: three offenses that are clustered up as the worst in 269 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: the league Indie and these two, like the Rams, don't 270 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: belong with the Panthers. I mean, there's won the Super 271 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: Bowl and the Panthers have fired their coach and their 272 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: defenses are almost identical. In E p A. You know, 273 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: like Caroline is d is good and I think you 274 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: get a little spark with the new coach that might 275 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: last day week or two, but I think they keep 276 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: it close. Is this taking some of the bloom off 277 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: the rose for McVeigh maybe, I mean he has you 278 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: have a ring. You know, he's got a ring. You 279 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: can't take that away type of But this isn't pretty. 280 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: He's had some up and down. There's there's that to me, 281 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: is the difference between the good coaches and the great coaches. 282 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: Can you know the variants year to year. He's won 283 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: a lot of games up until that Super Bowl though, too. 284 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: I mean he went to another had some losing it. 285 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: It's kind of it's kind of like the Shanahan thing. 286 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: He's either really good or really bad. Like, I think 287 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: they might not get this year. They might straw, especially 288 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: if they lose this one. I don't think they will. Yeah, Yeah, 289 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: Moody picking the Ram to ten, Walter picking the Rams 290 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: to nine. The FPI prediction has the Rams winning sevent 291 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: at a time, but only by eight point one points. 292 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: P J. Walker starting, by the way, Yeah, let's just 293 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: Rob McCaffrey, al right. I mean, I don't think it's 294 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: gonna be any worse than the quarterback player they've had 295 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: the last twenty games. You know, the big matchup the 296 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: on CPS CBS the FOURM one Buffalo Bills at the 297 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: four and one that Kansas City Chiefs Buffalo favored by 298 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: two and a half the over under his fifty four. 299 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: This is the first time in Patrick mahomes career he 300 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: has been an underdog at home. And I don't think 301 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: it's enough. I don't think it's enough either. I mean, 302 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: I've been lumping the Chiefs in with the Eagles and Bills. 303 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: I think on Monday, I'm gonna change my tune and 304 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: say Buffalo's noticeably better than these defense. The Chiefs defense 305 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: is by far the worst of the of the four 306 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: units at Slay the Dragon, you know, and the Bill's 307 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: defense might be the second best unit, might be number one, 308 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: it could be number one, but it's no worse than two. 309 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: I don't think no, no, right. I think this is 310 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: where you say they missed Tyreek. Yeah, you know. I mean, 311 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: maybe they'll run a little bit and my home. I 312 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: don't want to bet against my homes and read at 313 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: home either. And it's gonna be a brutal place to play, 314 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be an awesome game. I think Buffalo 315 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: is better. Moody picking the Bills thirty seven, so he 316 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: sees a cover, and Walter picking the Bills thirty one, 317 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: so he sees a cover. Okay, I see even more 318 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: points than either of those, though, I mean, I think 319 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: it's like eight in I just said points. I'm playing 320 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: against my homes this week. I hope that doesn't happen. 321 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: I bet he puts up numbers, uh the Cowboys at 322 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: four and one or at the Eagles five and Oh 323 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: this series has always been weird, like they both of 324 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: them went on the other team's home field, Philadelphia favored 325 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: by six, the over under just forty two. I'm leading 326 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: the Cooper rush turned into a pumpkin, and I think 327 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: that's bound to happen. But I thought that a week ago, 328 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: and two weeks ago and three weeks ago. Um, But 329 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: I do think this is a very low scoring game. 330 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: I think Dallas is the causes a lot of problems 331 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: with the Eagles, and I think the Philly wins. But 332 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, well, I think Vegas agrees with you 333 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 1: because that over unders really low. Um when I say 334 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: it was forty two, Okay, so very low. Moody picking 335 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: the Eagles of a team so he has just under 336 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: Walter picking ego, So both guys have a cover, but 337 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: I think that w Yeah. Uh. The two and three 338 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: Broncos for the Monday Night game are at the three 339 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: and two Chargers. Uh. The Chargers favored by five. The 340 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: over under is forty five and a half. UM. I 341 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: do like the Broncos d but I think the Chargers 342 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: are a much better team. Herbert's healthy. Be nice to that, 343 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen, I'm sure you agree with your fantasies. Yeah. 344 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: I do think that they might have found a little 345 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: something running the ball last week. Ekeler, Mike Williams. That's enough. 346 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: I mean, Keenan Allen might be back this wenight. It's 347 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: a Monday night game. They he did do a walk 348 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 1: through yesterday, so at least they're they're working planning towards him. 349 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: So you have to check out one on Saturday and 350 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: his status comes out, so at least you'll know you 351 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: have a good idea if he at least got it. Yeah, 352 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: but but I mean that would be helped fantasy aside. 353 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: That would go a long way. And I have a 354 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: hard time betting on the Broncos. Man brutal. The Broncos 355 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: are one and four against the spread, this season, the 356 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: Chargers are four and one. I mean, I guess the 357 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: Steelers could be in this conversation, but the Broncos the 358 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: most disappointing team in the league without doubt for the Rams, 359 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: maybe the Rams maybe, but the Bronchos. The Broncos over 360 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: under wind total was ten. I remember when we went 361 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: through the wind total over unders they were there were 362 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: three teams in the a f C West that had 363 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: over unders of ten, and I said they didn't belong 364 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: there with those other two teams. I remember, and that 365 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: that's why I say that, because if you're really bad 366 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: against the spread, you know, like the opposite of Atlanta is, 367 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: you know, you didn't live up the expectations, and you 368 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: can see why I'm surprised they even want anything against 369 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: the spread. Yeah, I mean they're terrible. They score well, 370 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: they won that game and they beat the eleven to ten. 371 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: I guess they were a dog and that they're probably 372 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: a dog or if if even yeah, probably dog. Probably yeah, 373 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: probably I would think so. But that's this week slate 374 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: of games, remember there, I don't think no, no, remember 375 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: you get four teams off this week, so that's the 376 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: next week. We got more buys next week, so we're 377 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: starting to get into that point of the year. We're 378 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: gonna take a break.
