Transcript
- 0:09Speaker 1: Welcome to the Favorites, all part of the Action Network
- 0:12Speaker 1: family presented by DraftKings.
- 0:14Speaker 2: The Crown is yours.
- 0:16Speaker 1: I'm Brandon Kravitz, joined by a couple of Santa's favorite elves.
- 0:20Speaker 1: On this pre Christmas episode to super episode, Kendra and Stuckey.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Are off to or well off of a great week.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Week sixteen had ourselves a phenomenal week of NFL betting
- 0:34Speaker 1: and a lot more to get to. Today, we'll plant
- 0:36Speaker 1: the flag, we'll nominate our two Kings, and a queen parlay.
- 0:40Speaker 1: We've got Evans super loaded primer.
- 0:43Speaker 2: It's an all in one episode.
- 0:45Speaker 1: We said around Thanksgiving that we learned a lesson to
- 0:49Speaker 1: take it easy around the holidays. We're distracted, We're trying
- 0:53Speaker 1: to get plays in early. We're forcing it sometimes and
- 0:57Speaker 1: sometimes for content reasons as well. Kendra, have we learned
- 1:01Speaker 1: our lesson? Or are the Christmas betting cards full?
- 1:06Speaker 3: I am going to have such a light week of
- 1:10Speaker 3: bets for so many reasons. One it's the holidays. Two,
- 1:13Speaker 3: people are on short rests and a lot of these scenarios. Three,
- 1:17Speaker 3: I'm sure just like everybody else, you know, players are
- 1:19Speaker 3: people too. They have a lot going on in their lives,
- 1:21Speaker 3: they have family, friends, kids that they've got stuff to
- 1:23Speaker 3: get done for holidays. Big distraction for everybody. I'm gonna
- 1:27Speaker 3: go super light this week. And additionally, like there's teams
- 1:30Speaker 3: who are playing for nothing and teams who are playing
- 1:33Speaker 3: for everything, and that always gets dicey. You always have
- 1:35Speaker 3: to decide who's gonna, you know, kind of try and
- 1:38Speaker 3: tank for picks and who's not, who's gonna who has
- 1:40Speaker 3: teams that people need to be playing for contracts next season,
- 1:44Speaker 3: all of those types of things. This time of year
- 1:46Speaker 3: is so tough. Save your bankroll for the playoffs.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Stuck you want to hit anybody with the holiday disclaimer
- 1:52Speaker 1: or are you are you loading up this week?
- 1:56Speaker 4: Not same as always. I actually loved the last two
- 1:59Speaker 4: weeks of the regular because I love betting on teams
- 2:01Speaker 4: that are playing for nothing against teams that need to win.
- 2:04Speaker 4: Usually get some value there. I think historically that they
- 2:06Speaker 4: hit it like sixty one percent. Everyone who wants to
- 2:09Speaker 4: bet the team that's playing for nothing, that's seen that
- 2:11Speaker 4: needs to win usually nobody, And a lot of times
- 2:15Speaker 4: you can get value betting against that. These are still professionals,
- 2:18Speaker 4: They're still going to show up. I mean teams rarely
- 2:21Speaker 4: outwardly tank the guys that the only things you could
- 2:24Speaker 4: do is like if from an organization standpoint, you might
- 2:27Speaker 4: just not play certain guys, right, you might just hey, say, hey,
- 2:32Speaker 4: we're going to set this guy out, We're going to
- 2:33Speaker 4: shut down this guy. But everyone on the field, I mean,
- 2:37Speaker 4: they're playing for contracts for next year. They're not going
- 2:40Speaker 4: to not try, so yeah, I I mean, look at
- 2:45Speaker 4: the the Raiders are a perfect example. Last week, like
- 2:48Speaker 4: they have an incentive to lose out they outplayed the
- 2:51Speaker 4: Texans in Houston who needed to win. So yeah, I
- 2:54Speaker 4: love betting on teams. It requires you to bet on
- 2:57Speaker 4: a lot of bad teams, but I love betting on
- 2:58Speaker 4: the bad teams in the final two weeks of the
- 3:01Speaker 4: regular season that are playing for nothing.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Betting on those teams the whole year don't lie.
- 3:07Speaker 4: Oh yeah, of course, but I think you get even
- 3:10Speaker 4: more value the last two weeks. So I already have
- 3:13Speaker 4: a couple of those I bet. And then the worst
- 3:16Speaker 4: part about this week the NFL, Right, the NFL regular
- 3:19Speaker 4: the end of the regular season has really lost a
- 3:21Speaker 4: lot of it's lost there this year. It's pretty unfortunate.
- 3:23Speaker 4: I mean, there's a chance we know all fourteen playoff
- 3:26Speaker 4: teams after this weekend, and it's not the one that's
- 3:30Speaker 4: probably most unlikely is who wins the NFC South because
- 3:34Speaker 4: it would require the Bucks to so that that's the
- 3:42Speaker 4: least likely. But there's a chance, like that's the only
- 3:45Speaker 4: thing we have left to decide.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Because they play week they played the last week of
- 3:50Speaker 3: they play again the last week.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Correct.
- 3:51Speaker 4: Yeah, so unless the Panthers have a two game lead
- 3:54Speaker 4: because the Bucks win the tiebreaker, then that's going to
- 3:57Speaker 4: decide the division. So there's a good chance that that
- 4:00Speaker 4: ends up getting flexed to Sunday night and then like
- 4:03Speaker 4: next Sunday afternoon, there's going to be maybe some seating stuff.
- 4:08Speaker 4: But yeah, and then you have all these quarterback injuries,
- 4:11Speaker 4: like we might have ten or eleven backup quarterbacks. The
- 4:13Speaker 4: third of the league is going to have a backup
- 4:14Speaker 4: quarterback this week, a bunch of third strings.
- 4:18Speaker 2: So.
- 4:20Speaker 3: We have a quarterback crisis.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Yeah, and they have all these rules to start to
- 4:24Speaker 4: keep quarterbacks healthy, and they're running.
- 4:27Speaker 1: They made these rules and then and then all of
- 4:29Speaker 1: a sudden, the NFL changed. Then these guys started running
- 4:31Speaker 1: around like they're in college. So I don't know, if
- 4:34Speaker 1: they need to develop new new rules that where you
- 4:36Speaker 1: can't even hit the quarterback when he's diving for a
- 4:39Speaker 1: first down fifteen yards down the field.
- 4:42Speaker 4: It's body weight, please, These injuries aren't happening on body weight.
- 4:47Speaker 1: By the way, the body weight fel is maybe the
- 4:50Speaker 1: worst of all on that.
- 4:52Speaker 4: So yeah, that's that's pretty unfortunate. The Christmas Leigh with
- 4:57Speaker 4: a Netflix playing pay pay the NFL on hundred and
- 4:59Speaker 4: fifty million, get a bunch of third string quarterbacks.
- 5:04Speaker 3: So yeah, I uh, I'm gonna watch every minute of it,
- 5:08Speaker 3: like a sec o every minute.
- 5:10Speaker 4: It's like my job, and I'll watch all the games.
- 5:15Speaker 1: People are still gonna watch the games because this is
- 5:18Speaker 1: a lot of people do, but they're gonna be on
- 5:20Speaker 1: like net. Netflix is still going to get their streaming numbers.
- 5:23Speaker 1: This will officially test. This is like the biggest stress
- 5:26Speaker 1: tests you could ask for for the NFL. Let's see
- 5:29Speaker 1: how much people actually love our fucking products.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Let's let's give you this one Christmas.
- 5:33Speaker 4: You want to watch Josh Johnson, you gotta, you gotta
- 5:36Speaker 4: put on Netflix at the family party.
- 5:38Speaker 3: Let's see, do you guys have the same issue that
- 5:40Speaker 3: I do. You remember back in the day when you're
- 5:42Speaker 3: making fun of boomers who couldn't say Chipotle. My mom
- 5:45Speaker 3: can't say Netflix. My mom cannot get she thinks it's
- 5:49Speaker 3: next Flix and she cannot stay Netflix properly. Does everybody
- 5:55Speaker 3: else have that issue? It's like the new Chipotle for me.
- 5:58Speaker 4: My dad say it, but he can't turn on any app.
- 6:04Speaker 4: He has the call one of us and we have
- 6:06Speaker 4: to walk them through it every time. Also he listens
- 6:09Speaker 4: to uh my podcast. I have to send him like
- 6:14Speaker 4: an email to his AOL email. It still as an
- 6:17Speaker 4: AOL email, and I can't I send him everyone he
- 6:21Speaker 4: had calls me if I don't send it. He can't
- 6:23Speaker 4: figure out how to just go to the field. I
- 6:26Speaker 4: have the email everyone, and it's from the a cast
- 6:28Speaker 4: site where we like we host it. Because I have
- 6:31Speaker 4: to send him the exact link where you can just
- 6:33Speaker 4: hit this play button on his old browser. Uh it's
- 6:37Speaker 4: the only one that works. So I remember after every
- 6:40Speaker 4: podcast to send him a link from this production site
- 6:44Speaker 4: and then he clicks it in his play. So yeah,
- 6:49Speaker 4: there's there's probably gonna be some people that just put
- 6:52Speaker 4: the NBA on on their TV to not and not
- 6:54Speaker 4: pull up the streaming. So I think it'll be hit
- 6:56Speaker 4: up a little bit.
- 6:57Speaker 3: But I am curious box because once on Netflix, that's killer.
- 7:02Speaker 4: Yeah, Netflix, Netflix, Amazon, So like there's gonna be some
- 7:07Speaker 4: people that are just like dude, I'm not I'm not
- 7:09Speaker 4: going to put the streaming on and.
- 7:12Speaker 3: For Max Brosmer boo, if you bet you guys better
- 7:18Speaker 3: watch Max Brosmer and like it.
- 7:20Speaker 1: I'm going to take a sip of my gingerbread latte
- 7:23Speaker 1: while Stucky asks us something weird, random and bizarre.
- 7:26Speaker 3: Hey, this is a dumb question.
- 7:29Speaker 4: Let me ask you a personal question kind of question?
- 7:32Speaker 2: Is that is question?
- 7:35Speaker 3: Uh?
- 7:35Speaker 4: Will in the Christmas spirit? What is what is the
- 7:41Speaker 4: worst gift you've ever see? It's a hard one, so
- 7:42Speaker 4: I don't know if you have an answer. But and
- 7:44Speaker 4: then two part question what do you want? Because as
- 7:47Speaker 4: you get older, it's harder to like get to come
- 7:50Speaker 4: up with a gift that would like make you happy,
- 7:53Speaker 4: Like what would you want as a gift? Obviously, he asked,
- 7:57Speaker 4: like a reasonable gift can't be like I want to
- 7:59Speaker 4: pry to jet or what's something that you would want
- 8:03Speaker 4: that makes you happy at your current age. I think
- 8:08Speaker 4: the worst gift I ever got was I got a
- 8:16Speaker 4: I won't say the family member the god for me.
- 8:18Speaker 4: But I got a like and it was really nice.
- 8:22Speaker 4: But I got this like tight leather jacket, Like, was
- 8:27Speaker 4: I ever gonna wear that? It is sad in my
- 8:29Speaker 4: closet or uh I think thirteen years I like moved
- 8:34Speaker 4: with it. I'm ever gonna wear a leather jacket? No, so,
- 8:39Speaker 4: but that was like really nice. And but yeah, I've
- 8:42Speaker 4: never got any use for it, and it's taken up
- 8:43Speaker 4: room in my closet in my house forever. So I
- 8:46Speaker 4: guess I gotta nominate that.
- 8:49Speaker 1: I mean, you could go as like a member of
- 8:51Speaker 1: Greece for Halloween. You know, you could use it for
- 8:54Speaker 1: outside of just like wearing it to dinner.
- 8:57Speaker 4: I guess. Yeah, what makes gift makes me at books?
- 9:02Speaker 4: But I don't like I give them myself. The buy
- 9:04Speaker 4: problem is in like twenty twenty five, I just buy
- 9:07Speaker 4: anything I want. My wife always says this, Whenever I
- 9:09Speaker 4: want something, I just buy it, And it's so easy
- 9:10Speaker 4: to buy it online.
- 9:13Speaker 2: So I like it.
- 9:13Speaker 4: Like food, it's probably what makes me happy. Like I
- 9:16Speaker 4: showed you, I got to I get a bunch of
- 9:19Speaker 4: tin fish. Sound like a seventy year old.
- 9:22Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the the Tinfish thing. What is that? Is
- 9:25Speaker 3: so like gen z girlypop of you? Why is why
- 9:28Speaker 3: are the girls obsessed with Tinfish girls?
- 9:31Speaker 4: Ob fish?
- 9:32Speaker 3: Oh my god, it's stucky. It is like the biggest
- 9:34Speaker 3: trend on TikTok right now. And like the gift that
- 9:37Speaker 3: everybody wants. I don't understand.
- 9:40Speaker 4: I love I love just grabbing a quick tinfish some
- 9:43Speaker 4: crackers or some bread. It's like some tuned good tuna
- 9:46Speaker 4: belly heating up a little bit. But I've always loved tinfish,
- 9:49Speaker 4: but also like chili oil paste, like different kinds of pastes,
- 9:53Speaker 4: and yeah, like or like a shirt, like a good
- 10:00Speaker 4: sweatshirt or hat. I think like that's it. It's hard
- 10:02Speaker 4: to find. It's hard to like for me to to
- 10:06Speaker 4: be like, this is what I really want to make
- 10:07Speaker 4: me happy. But how about you, guys, what's the worst
- 10:09Speaker 4: gift you ever got? And what would you want? What's
- 10:11Speaker 4: something that you want this year?
- 10:14Speaker 1: So the worst gift I ever got the one that
- 10:16Speaker 1: springs to mind. It's not a Christmas gift though, but
- 10:20Speaker 1: it definitely fits the It definitely fits the podcast.
- 10:24Speaker 2: A girl that I dated many many years ago, pre.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Wife, she got me it was for my birthday. My
- 10:30Speaker 1: birthday is in early August, right when the preseason starts
- 10:33Speaker 1: in the NFL. And she knew I was a Dolphins fan,
- 10:37Speaker 1: so and she was not. She wasn't a sports fan,
- 10:39Speaker 1: so she gets me tickets to a Dolphins game. The
- 10:42Speaker 1: Dolphins had just signed Dante Culpepper. I went to UCF.
- 10:45Speaker 1: I'm all pumped up about this and I opened it up.
- 10:51Speaker 2: I see that.
- 10:51Speaker 1: They're like they were like physical tickets is back when
- 10:54Speaker 1: they actually printed those and it said Dolphins Browns Week
- 10:59Speaker 1: two of the preseason. And she thought she had nailed
- 11:04Speaker 1: it because she didn't know the difference between a regular
- 11:07Speaker 1: season and pre season. So I had to go down
- 11:09Speaker 1: this game. I went to this game with her, drove
- 11:12Speaker 1: three hours down to Miami, go to this game with her,
- 11:15Speaker 1: and had to pretend the whole time like this is
- 11:18Speaker 1: the best experience of my life. Culpepper played two snaps,
- 11:22Speaker 1: was out of the game, and we watched backups for
- 11:25Speaker 1: the Browns and the Dolphins, and she had no idea
- 11:28Speaker 1: that this game didn't matter at all. That's the one
- 11:31Speaker 1: that springs to mind. I asked for a ring camera, doorbell,
- 11:34Speaker 1: So this is where I'm at in My Life and
- 11:38Speaker 1: a Cosmo pillow. They had this on display at a
- 11:42Speaker 1: city furniture and I, you know, you lay on the
- 11:44Speaker 1: bed when you go to the furniture stores to test
- 11:47Speaker 1: it out. Most comfortable pillow I've ever laid on. So
- 11:51Speaker 1: a digital camera and a pillow. And I don't want
- 11:55Speaker 1: any more kids, so I might get a ves sectomy,
- 11:57Speaker 1: but I'll probably pay for that myself.
- 12:01Speaker 3: You probably need an ice back. Maybe I'll get you
- 12:04Speaker 3: for Christmas. My worst gift was also from my ex
- 12:11Speaker 3: boyfriend that I dated all through college, and he got
- 12:16Speaker 3: me a I didn't eat meat until I was twenty five.
- 12:18Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys know that about me,
- 12:19Speaker 3: Like literally my whole life, I did not eat meat.
- 12:22Speaker 3: And then COVID happened, and maybe I was like twenty
- 12:25Speaker 3: three or twenty four whatever, and then COVID happened, and
- 12:27Speaker 3: I was like, well, if I'm gonna die, I guess
- 12:29Speaker 3: I should eat a steak. And so I started eating
- 12:31Speaker 3: meat again. But my boyfriend bought me a book about
- 12:35Speaker 3: like this girl wrote a book about her journey to
- 12:37Speaker 3: becoming a vegetarian. He bought me one of the Steven
- 12:39Speaker 3: Singer gold dipped roses and a bottle of gin and
- 12:44Speaker 3: I hated it and I was like, thanks, We've been
- 12:48Speaker 3: dating for like a year and a half and you
- 12:50Speaker 3: don't know me at all. Amazing.
- 12:53Speaker 4: Yeah, when someone just like reveals something to.
- 12:58Speaker 3: You, yep, and so that it sucked. I donated all
- 13:01Speaker 3: of it. And then what I want this year? I
- 13:05Speaker 3: really want a puppy, you guys, I want to puppy.
- 13:08Speaker 3: I have puppy fever so bad. I want another dog.
- 13:12Speaker 3: But I don't think that. Yeah, pets, pets are food.
- 13:14Speaker 3: That's what I want. If you want to givet me
- 13:16Speaker 3: another being, I'm in this.
- 13:19Speaker 1: It feels like a good disclaimer. Don't put the dog
- 13:22Speaker 1: in the box. I think too many people think that
- 13:24Speaker 1: that's cute, even if you cut the hole in it.
- 13:27Speaker 1: It's just not just give the person a dog. Don't
- 13:30Speaker 1: put it in a box.
- 13:31Speaker 3: Your responsible person too, because I feel like so many
- 13:34Speaker 3: people this year will like, get someone a pet and
- 13:36Speaker 3: then it winds up in a shelter. So only get
- 13:38Speaker 3: them a pet if they really want one.
- 13:41Speaker 4: Do you have any what kind of probably do you want?
- 13:44Speaker 3: I don't know. I bought Jackson out of the back
- 13:46Speaker 3: of a van because a lady was going to shoot him.
- 13:48Speaker 3: So just something that needs a home.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Yeah, we had We had a rescue too. Although I want,
- 13:53Speaker 4: I hope one day I can. I want a born
- 13:54Speaker 4: of Collie one day.
- 13:55Speaker 3: But I really want a Doberman. I like, imagine me
- 14:00Speaker 3: with a Doberman with just like a metal chaine around
- 14:03Speaker 3: its neck and its name it was like Fluffy. That
- 14:05Speaker 3: would be sick.
- 14:06Speaker 1: We should just get like a show dog and then
- 14:08Speaker 1: pass it around the country.
- 14:09Speaker 2: You know.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Then then it's it's not the same level of responsibility.
- 14:12Speaker 1: We can each have the dog for a couple of months.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Four uh we had.
- 14:18Speaker 4: I watched for uh friends the Great They had two
- 14:23Speaker 4: Great Danes. That's the only dog I don't want. I
- 14:25Speaker 4: love them, but they're so big and they they were
- 14:28Speaker 4: drooling all over me. And but I was watching like
- 14:32Speaker 4: house sitting too, like going over there and feeding two
- 14:34Speaker 4: huge Great Danes my brand. I do have a funny
- 14:39Speaker 4: preseason story. I was like fourteen, this is like early
- 14:42Speaker 4: two thousands. I went to So I went with like
- 14:45Speaker 4: my friend and his dad who brought us. They were
- 14:47Speaker 4: Eagles fans. I was a Raivens fan. This is like
- 14:49Speaker 4: two thousand and one, and I had a Ray Lewis.
- 14:55Speaker 4: I were Ray Lewis, Jersey. It was a preseason game
- 14:58Speaker 4: and it was that it was the VET and the
- 15:01Speaker 4: game got canceled. I don't know if you remember this.
- 15:05Speaker 4: There was like holes in the field and like Brian
- 15:08Speaker 4: Billick went out there and he was like, this is unsafe,
- 15:10Speaker 4: and there was this huge delay, and the NFL there
- 15:14Speaker 4: was like all these meetings with the officials and then
- 15:16Speaker 4: they just came out and they said the game is
- 15:17Speaker 4: unsafe to be played and they canceled it. And when
- 15:23Speaker 4: I was leaving, there was just all these drunk Eagles
- 15:25Speaker 4: fans just screaming at me, like murderer. They were just
- 15:28Speaker 4: so mad, aating. I was like, dude, we didn't get
- 15:30Speaker 4: to see a preseason game, but everyone was so mad.
- 15:32Speaker 4: I was like fourteen year old kid walking out of
- 15:35Speaker 4: there getting screamed at because people didn't get to see
- 15:37Speaker 4: their preseason football. So to your point, maybe people people
- 15:42Speaker 4: were upsetting out to see preseason NFL. They're probably gonna
- 15:46Speaker 4: turn on Josh Johnson, Max Brosmer, and Eludedcon.
- 15:52Speaker 3: As they should they should.
- 15:54Speaker 1: I hope that my ex of many many years ago
- 15:58Speaker 1: is forced to I'm sure she's married by now. I
- 16:01Speaker 1: hope that her husband forces her to watch Christmas Day
- 16:06Speaker 1: football just to make up for my experience watching the
- 16:09Speaker 1: Dolphins in the Browns.
- 16:10Speaker 3: I hope one of my ex's friends listens to this
- 16:12Speaker 3: podcast because statistically that is quite likely and sends him
- 16:16Speaker 3: the bit about me hating his gifts.
- 16:18Speaker 1: Yeah, we we can probably have production just send it
- 16:21Speaker 1: right to him. So if you could get us an
- 16:23Speaker 1: email address, we'll make that happen. Let's plant our flag
- 16:27Speaker 1: for week seventeen.
- 16:29Speaker 5: Might flag in a shut up.
- 16:31Speaker 4: I'm trying to plant my flag here.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Okay, you're really planning your flag in that thing, Hendro.
- 16:36Speaker 2: We will start with you.
- 16:38Speaker 1: I feel though, as though we're gonna have a little
- 16:40Speaker 1: bit of disagreement here.
- 16:41Speaker 3: What you got you pissed me off. I love you
- 16:44Speaker 3: to dad, but you pissed me off every single week.
- 16:46Speaker 3: We talked about this before the show started. I'm on
- 16:48Speaker 3: the Saints. I just don't get the vibe that they
- 16:51Speaker 3: are wanting to tank. The Titans got super lucky last week.
- 16:57Speaker 3: The gardnerment went down, got a good morale victory. I
- 17:00Speaker 3: see them probably rolling over going belly up here. I've
- 17:03Speaker 3: been really impressed by Tyler Shuck and I think that
- 17:05Speaker 3: they want to get him some reps, get him some snaps,
- 17:07Speaker 3: let him grow a little bit, because the progress that
- 17:10Speaker 3: I've seen from him the last couple of weeks has
- 17:12Speaker 3: been awesome. I was originally in the boat the Saints
- 17:14Speaker 3: probably would be going to the draft looking for a quarterback.
- 17:17Speaker 3: I don't think they have to at this point, and
- 17:19Speaker 3: I think Kellen Moore is a good coach, should have
- 17:21Speaker 3: been a head coach sooner. Probably probably going to take
- 17:24Speaker 3: this game as a chance to get another win under
- 17:27Speaker 3: their belt. I don't really have faith in the Titans.
- 17:30Speaker 3: They had their raw raw, you know, good win last week.
- 17:33Speaker 3: Those science Yeah.
- 17:35Speaker 1: I just think that New Orleans is probably peaking out
- 17:39Speaker 1: right now, and this feels like a really good time
- 17:41Speaker 1: to fade them. I know that the Titans are coming
- 17:43Speaker 1: off of a win, but that wasn't so much of
- 17:44Speaker 1: a win as it was a meltdown of competition. The
- 17:48Speaker 1: Saints have won three games in a row, and now
- 17:50Speaker 1: they go on the road. It just feels like a
- 17:52Speaker 1: major letdown. This feels like one of those games. Just
- 17:55Speaker 1: take the dog. Whoever be the underdog would be the
- 17:57Speaker 1: team that I would like. I don't hate it. I
- 18:01Speaker 1: just I'm definitely going to add the Titans to a
- 18:04Speaker 1: teaser leg. I just haven't decided who else I'm gonna
- 18:06Speaker 1: pair them with yet, but the Titans have already been nominated,
- 18:09Speaker 1: so we could both end up winning this. I'm gonna
- 18:11Speaker 1: take this up to eight and a half, and you're
- 18:13Speaker 1: gonna lay the two and a half with the Saints.
- 18:14Speaker 2: Stucky? What about you?
- 18:17Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I don't mind the teaser look for Titans
- 18:20Speaker 4: that we we're gonna go ugly. I gotta give people
- 18:25Speaker 4: a Christmas bet, so we're gonna bet on the Chiefs.
- 18:28Speaker 4: Oh my god, plus thirteen. This line is insane. So
- 18:34Speaker 4: let's just go. Let's rewind a month ago. The Chiefs
- 18:38Speaker 4: close up four in Denver, so we're keep it easy.
- 18:42Speaker 4: It's a divisional game, home field doesn't as much. We'll
- 18:44Speaker 4: keep it simple and say home field's worth one and
- 18:47Speaker 4: a half. That means the Chiefs at the time we're
- 18:49Speaker 4: five and a half points better than the Broncos. Now
- 18:54Speaker 4: the Broncos are favored by thirteen. Keep it at the
- 18:57Speaker 4: home field of one and a half. On the road
- 18:59Speaker 4: now saying the Broncos are over two touchdowns better than
- 19:03Speaker 4: the she that's a twenty point adjustment in a month,
- 19:06Speaker 4: twenty points in the NFL. By the way, Mahomes the
- 19:09Speaker 4: two games before he got hurt was the worst quarterback
- 19:12Speaker 4: in the NFL and EPA plus completion percentage of expedition.
- 19:15Speaker 4: Their offense was broken for the three weeks that he
- 19:17Speaker 4: was playing. It's not like we're going from peak Mahomes,
- 19:20Speaker 4: where this offense was operating at some crazy level over
- 19:25Speaker 4: you know, before he got hurt to Aluda Kon, So
- 19:29Speaker 4: twenty no quarterbacks worthy. Now there's other injuries, but I
- 19:32Speaker 4: would think also, I think the reason that you're getting
- 19:34Speaker 4: this number again, like Broncos win, you clinched the division
- 19:38Speaker 4: chiefs or eliminated. They got blown out by the Titans
- 19:40Speaker 4: last week. I was on the Titans LST week. I
- 19:43Speaker 4: thought it was a horrible spot for the chees. I
- 19:45Speaker 4: where they're going to show up the human element of that.
- 19:47Speaker 4: They were finally eliminated from the playoffs, were going at Tennessee,
- 19:50Speaker 4: so everyone who was hurt sat out. They had their
- 19:53Speaker 4: quarterback got hurt. Aludacon had to come in. He had
- 19:56Speaker 4: no reps with the first team, so you got a
- 19:58Speaker 4: couple things here. He'll have reps now this he can
- 20:00Speaker 4: move around, which you need to do behind this offensive line.
- 20:04Speaker 4: And I would imagine that some of the guys who
- 20:08Speaker 4: were hurt, you know, last week, it's like, why play?
- 20:11Speaker 4: This is like the last game that you'd want to play.
- 20:13Speaker 4: This is like the chief Super Bowl, Kelsey's last game
- 20:15Speaker 4: at home of his career, and you don't want the
- 20:18Speaker 4: Broncos to clinch the division and like on your home
- 20:21Speaker 4: field arrival, so well, the Chiefs lay down here, know,
- 20:25Speaker 4: like this is a game where the Chiefs will try
- 20:27Speaker 4: the low total. You're gonna get me close to two touchdowns.
- 20:30Speaker 4: I don't know this. I think this line should be
- 20:32Speaker 4: like ten and a half eleven. So yeah, we're taking
- 20:36Speaker 4: the Chiefs plus thirteen. I think they'll get up for
- 20:38Speaker 4: this one. And this is a Broncos team that doesn't
- 20:41Speaker 4: blow out anyone. And yeah, kind on a neutral to
- 20:46Speaker 4: justin fields and one by two with fields thrown for
- 20:49Speaker 4: negative ten net passing yards?
- 20:51Speaker 3: Can I put my tinfoil hat on?
- 20:53Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 20:54Speaker 3: What do you guys think about Andy Reid and Kelsey
- 20:56Speaker 3: both retiring at the end of this year and if
- 20:58Speaker 3: Harbaugh gets fired them bringing him in?
- 21:02Speaker 4: No, I mean, here's the thing. What is read? What
- 21:04Speaker 4: else is reed.
- 21:04Speaker 3: Gonna do, go be a grandfather.
- 21:08Speaker 4: Maybe he's gonna go like a Food Network show about
- 21:13Speaker 4: touring the country et and burgers.
- 21:15Speaker 1: It's amazing how quickly we sell stock on these guys.
- 21:18Speaker 1: Andy Reid was the toast of the town for the
- 21:20Speaker 1: last five years, and now we're like, they should probably
- 21:22Speaker 1: get someone else.
- 21:24Speaker 3: I've been a hater.
- 21:25Speaker 4: No, I don't read. Seems like he's going to be
- 21:27Speaker 4: like a football guy, though I feel like he doesn't
- 21:29Speaker 4: do anything else. So yeah, I think the Chiefs will
- 21:33Speaker 4: show up here. Now. Maybe Eludicon's a disaster and he
- 21:37Speaker 4: turns it over a bunch and gets sacked and gets
- 21:39Speaker 4: stripped and he's got he gotta stop holding the ball
- 21:41Speaker 4: with one hand. But maybe maybe, But I just think
- 21:43Speaker 4: this line's too high. And this is a Broncos team,
- 21:44Speaker 4: and they don't blow. They don't blow on anyone. I mean,
- 21:49Speaker 4: and I'm talking bad teams. They beat the Raiders ten
- 21:51Speaker 4: to seven at home, Like this is a team that
- 21:56Speaker 4: they just their offense can get stuck in the mud.
- 21:59Speaker 4: Nicks can be inconsistent for quarters at a time. And
- 22:04Speaker 4: after the Broncos, what's that hell?
- 22:06Speaker 3: I said, ninety percent of the Chiefs rosters on ILR.
- 22:10Speaker 4: It's Fairyeah, it's fair.
- 22:11Speaker 1: There's a lot of injuries, like the fact that Rashi
- 22:13Speaker 1: Rice isn't out there really doesn't help because they have
- 22:15Speaker 1: such a hard time moving the ball. A lude kwon,
- 22:17Speaker 1: by the way, eleven of sixteen for a buck. Eleven
- 22:21Speaker 1: for a quarterback that's coming in as a third string.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Not that bad.
- 22:24Speaker 4: He was done Minshew because Minshew can't move around and
- 22:27Speaker 4: he had no reps. Like he'll get reps this week.
- 22:30Speaker 4: Maybe there's a chance Rice comes back. I mean, I
- 22:32Speaker 4: don't know, but I mean right now. The Broncos beat
- 22:35Speaker 4: the Commanders by one on the road in overtime, the
- 22:40Speaker 4: Raiders by three. They beat uh Davis Mills by three.
- 22:47Speaker 4: I mean, like the Jets by two. Like this is
- 22:50Speaker 4: the team that the Titans by eight. They don't they
- 22:53Speaker 4: don't blow out anybody. And and this is coming off
- 22:56Speaker 4: a game where they got destroyed. I still think their
- 23:00Speaker 4: defense is a bit overrated. So uh just hit a
- 23:03Speaker 4: couple of long passes on Riley Moss, get to thirteen
- 23:05Speaker 4: points and you cover.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Wow. Well, this is Stucky's specialty.
- 23:10Speaker 1: So before you guys out there listening or watching this
- 23:13Speaker 1: Scoff the idea of betting the Chiefs on Christmas. These
- 23:16Speaker 1: are usually the bets that he hits. So I don't
- 23:19Speaker 1: know that I can get there.
- 23:21Speaker 3: If it were Gardner Minshew, I would have been in
- 23:22Speaker 3: on this.
- 23:24Speaker 2: I just the way that I'll look at it.
- 23:30Speaker 4: There's the road that's insane.
- 23:33Speaker 1: There's no way I'd bet the Broncos, which means it's
- 23:35Speaker 1: Chiefs or nothing, and it's probably gonna be nothing for me.
- 23:37Speaker 2: But I totally get it. I get it on Kansas City.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Uh, I told you guys, I was going to sell
- 23:42Speaker 1: you on the Dolphins plus five and a half. I
- 23:44Speaker 1: wasn't going to force it. I was going to crunch
- 23:47Speaker 1: some numbers. We did, and we're there.
- 23:51Speaker 3: Douggie at the same time, literally just did the.
- 23:57Speaker 4: No matter what numbers you crunched, you were going to
- 23:59Speaker 4: bet the Dolphins. Yeah, no, there's no numbers coming back
- 24:04Speaker 4: saying now, don't bet this.
- 24:06Speaker 3: There wasn't even a line, real line now on Sunday
- 24:09Speaker 3: and you were like, yeah, I'm gonna covince you guys
- 24:10Speaker 3: on the Dolphins.
- 24:11Speaker 4: It could have been minus five and a half and
- 24:12Speaker 4: you would have told us you bet in the Dolphins.
- 24:14Speaker 2: That is not true.
- 24:16Speaker 1: I I personally project this closer to three, so I
- 24:21Speaker 1: think that's around anything south of that. I think if
- 24:25Speaker 1: it was like three and a half or north of
- 24:27Speaker 1: three and a half, I would have been I would
- 24:29Speaker 1: have definitely tried to sell you guys only said.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Five and a half.
- 24:33Speaker 3: Gift to you was not planting my flag on the Buccaneers.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god, really, God, come on this Bucks
- 24:41Speaker 1: team right now.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Be trusted. They've been so bad.
- 24:46Speaker 4: So that covered seven in a row. Baker's been arguably
- 24:48Speaker 4: a bottom three quarterback for the last two months. I
- 24:50Speaker 4: don't know if he's hurt or he has just come
- 24:53Speaker 4: crashing back down to earth. He's been abysmal, So I
- 24:56Speaker 4: don't If you want to sell this a Bucks fade, that's.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Fine, well it's u It's much more of a it's
- 25:01Speaker 1: more of a Bucks fad. But it's also I think
- 25:04Speaker 1: this line is over adjusting to a blowout because people
- 25:08Speaker 1: are going to look and go, oh, well, quin Ewers
- 25:10Speaker 1: came in seventh round pick and then the team got
- 25:13Speaker 1: blown out. He really wasn't that bad. He had an
- 25:15Speaker 1: I int that bounced off of a receiver's hands. Greg
- 25:19Speaker 1: Dulsic fumbled the football he had nothing to do with that.
- 25:22Speaker 1: It was the defense that couldn't hold up. I actually
- 25:24Speaker 1: thought Youwers looked pretty crisp out there, all things considered.
- 25:28Speaker 1: No way this Bucks team should be laying over five
- 25:30Speaker 1: on the road.
- 25:31Speaker 2: It's stuck.
- 25:31Speaker 1: He mentioned he's been bad since week seven. The Bucks
- 25:35Speaker 1: are a bottom ten offense. These teams just are not
- 25:38Speaker 1: that far apart right now. So you give me five
- 25:41Speaker 1: and a half, and I don't think this number touches six.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Otherwise I wouldn't plant my flag on it.
- 25:45Speaker 2: I would just wait. I don't think we're getting there.
- 25:47Speaker 1: I think this is gonna go either stay where it's
- 25:50Speaker 1: at or it's gonna go down to four and a half.
- 25:52Speaker 1: And I like Miami legitimately, I know I was likely
- 25:57Speaker 1: gonna end up there no matter what.
- 25:58Speaker 2: But this number is a chef's kiss. I love it.
- 26:03Speaker 4: I don't hate it as a fate of The Bucks
- 26:05Speaker 4: are a mess right now. Baker's a mess, and that's
- 26:07Speaker 4: how you have to attack this Dolphins. He make Their
- 26:09Speaker 4: secondary is horrendous, and I mean Baker's just missing throws
- 26:13Speaker 4: left and right. And this is one of those instances where, yeah,
- 26:16Speaker 4: the line's probably attad inflated because the Bucks have to win, and.
- 26:21Speaker 1: Yeah, the Bucks can be eliminated this week. If the
- 26:23Speaker 1: Panthers beat the Seahawks and the Dolphins beat the Bucks,
- 26:26Speaker 1: the Bucks are out and the Dolphins have nothing to
- 26:28Speaker 1: play for here. These are exactly the kind of teams,
- 26:32Speaker 1: the kind of situations that you want to bet into
- 26:34Speaker 1: Week seventeen and Week.
- 26:35Speaker 2: Eighteen is this.
- 26:37Speaker 3: Do you think that Mike McDaniel's going to lose his job?
- 26:40Speaker 2: I don't.
- 26:41Speaker 4: I have no idea. Actually I thought he was, and
- 26:43Speaker 4: then he wasn't. Now I don't know.
- 26:45Speaker 1: I think the fact that the owner led there's no
- 26:47Speaker 1: way that you bench a quarterback, Yeah, who has signed
- 26:51Speaker 1: a two hundred million dollar contract without checking with the
- 26:53Speaker 1: owner first. So the fact that he got the go
- 26:56Speaker 1: ahead to do that to me, said that screams Mike
- 26:59Speaker 1: McDaniel is going to be the coach next year. Now,
- 27:01Speaker 1: maybe he gets fired three weeks into the season next year,
- 27:03Speaker 1: but I think they're at least going to get him
- 27:05Speaker 1: into next season.
- 27:07Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a recent report that came out that
- 27:09Speaker 4: said he's coming back.
- 27:10Speaker 2: So all right, there you go. Our flags are planted.
- 27:13Speaker 1: Saints minus two and a half, Chiefs plus thirteen and
- 27:16Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins plus five and a half against those
- 27:19Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- 27:22Speaker 3: You guys, yours might.
- 27:25Speaker 4: Be the otherest kind of Saints is road chalk?
- 27:28Speaker 3: You You are betting the cheess right now?
- 27:33Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm getting two touchdowns your I could argue yours
- 27:37Speaker 4: is the.
- 27:38Speaker 1: Fact that Tyler Shuck is the best quarterback on the plant.
- 27:41Speaker 2: The flag tells you a whole lot.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Jackson heard I wanted a puppy, and now he's like
- 27:45Speaker 3: in the background giving us his best right now.
- 27:50Speaker 4: That's a good sign for the for our dogs, not
- 27:53Speaker 4: your road chalk.
- 27:54Speaker 3: The dogs are barking anyways.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Hey, listen, you said you wanted dogs for Christmas.
- 28:00Speaker 4: We gave them to you and alluded Khan and yours.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Yeah, the real puppies.
- 28:07Speaker 4: Quinn. Quinn's a good dog name.
- 28:10Speaker 3: Yeah, but if he dresses like a wanna be Morgan Wallin,
- 28:13Speaker 3: I don't knoww that on that one.
- 28:17Speaker 1: So now that we've planted our flags, we're gonna jump
- 28:19Speaker 1: ahead a bit to Monday Night Football on ESPN because
- 28:22Speaker 1: right now there's an awesome offer from Sling TV. If
- 28:25Speaker 1: you need instant access to live TV. Maybe you're stuck
- 28:28Speaker 1: at the in laws on this holiday season, you're away
- 28:31Speaker 1: from the normal home set up, don't worry. With Sling TV,
- 28:35Speaker 1: you can take control with flexible package options of one
- 28:38Speaker 1: to three and seven day passes for access to thirty

- 28:45Speaker 1: covered for Monday Night Football, all eleven of the college
- 28:49Speaker 1: football playoff games and more so. With Sling TV, they're
- 28:52Speaker 1: gonna get you in Monday Night Football, and we're gonna
- 28:55Speaker 1: get you into a same game parlay. I like the
- 28:58Speaker 1: Falcons plus eight and a half. I like the way
- 29:01Speaker 1: that this team has looked the last couple of weeks.
- 29:03Speaker 1: They've gotten wins against the Bucks and the Cardinals. I
- 29:06Speaker 1: know that this is a step up in weight class
- 29:08Speaker 1: against the La Rams. Kyle Pitts has been playing well.
- 29:12Speaker 1: Drake London back in the mix. They can always lean
- 29:14Speaker 1: on Bijon give me a little prime time Cousins to
- 29:18Speaker 1: get the cover.
- 29:19Speaker 2: Kendra, what do you like?
- 29:21Speaker 3: I got to say that this Sling deal is the
- 29:23Speaker 3: absolute best thing if you're going to like your grandma's
- 29:27Speaker 3: house or something like that and you want to have
- 29:29Speaker 3: the games on, but know that they don't have any
- 29:31Speaker 3: sort of TV package whatsoever, or your Stucky's dad. That's
- 29:36Speaker 3: definitely probably what I'm gonna be doing. So I'm gonna
- 29:38Speaker 3: be my best friend's grandparents' house. I am waiting for
- 29:42Speaker 3: Blake Koram's numbers to come out. I want to see
- 29:46Speaker 3: what his total is for maybe like some pass catching,
- 29:49Speaker 3: just because he's been kind of a little bit more
- 29:51Speaker 3: involved in the game. Especially with Devonte Adams out, They've
- 29:53Speaker 3: got to get a little bit more creative with that offense.
- 29:56Speaker 3: I'm really looking at Blake Korum numbers once they're out.
- 29:58Speaker 3: Whether you like the ny time, whether you like him
- 30:00Speaker 3: to catch a couple passes, whatever looks nice with Blake Korum.
- 30:04Speaker 3: That's that's kind of where I'm at. Yeah, you're probably
- 30:08Speaker 3: gonna go with whatever his like patch total is. That's
- 30:11Speaker 3: probably where I'm gonna be. I'm probably gonna go with
- 30:13Speaker 3: the over.
- 30:13Speaker 1: I think he's been going over his rushing yards a
- 30:15Speaker 1: week after week, and we'll look into that.
- 30:18Speaker 2: What do you like, Yeah, ducky.
- 30:19Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with I mean, this is hard to
- 30:22Speaker 4: do on a Tuesday for a Monday night.
- 30:23Speaker 3: Game without knowing Yeah, yep, a lot.
- 30:25Speaker 4: Of injury stuff, but I want to go with Kobe
- 30:28Speaker 4: Parkinson anytime touchdown, but Adams' status in Dow expect just
- 30:34Speaker 4: a ton of heavy personnel from the Rams. Falcons have
- 30:37Speaker 4: struggled defending heavy personnel. I think I'll get plenty of
- 30:40Speaker 4: looks in the red zone. So let's go with Parkinson
- 30:43Speaker 4: anytime touchdown.
- 30:44Speaker 2: I dig it. Blake Koram.
- 30:46Speaker 1: By the way, four weeks in a row, he has
- 30:49Speaker 1: gone over his rushing yard total.
- 30:51Speaker 3: He's kind of a king. He's they've finally started to
- 30:53Speaker 3: give him some opportunity in that offense.
- 30:55Speaker 2: Yeah, which he looks like. He looks like a legit
- 30:58Speaker 2: starting running back.
- 30:59Speaker 1: If you know, if Kiren wasn't standing in his way,
- 31:01Speaker 1: I think that he's got bell Coal abilities. Did you
- 31:05Speaker 1: like him coming out of Michigan stucky as a as
- 31:07Speaker 1: a pro?
- 31:08Speaker 4: I didn't. I didn't think he could be in every
- 31:10Speaker 4: down back, but I thought he would be he could
- 31:15Speaker 4: find a role in the NFL. But he's been better
- 31:17Speaker 4: than I expected before. And then so I mean, I
- 31:21Speaker 4: guess we'll go once the line comes out, we'll go
- 31:23Speaker 4: with So we'll go Falcons corem over rushing yards and
- 31:28Speaker 4: Parkinson touchdown. And I mean, for what it's worth, the
- 31:31Speaker 4: Falcons a very poor rush defense. They're they're i think
- 31:35Speaker 4: twenty seventh in rush success rate, so you can run
- 31:39Speaker 4: on them too, so that that does make sense. Twenty
- 31:41Speaker 4: fifth and rush EPA. So yeah, that'll be the parlay
- 31:45Speaker 4: once the numbers come out. Falcons krem over and Parkinson touchdown.
- 31:50Speaker 1: The holiday season is here, and if you find yourself
- 31:53Speaker 1: at a let's gather around the table and play a
- 31:55Speaker 1: board game while the game is on. Kind of how

- 33:04Speaker 1: Evan Abrams joining us on the podcast The Voice of God.
- 33:09Speaker 1: No betting week can start without the primer. I am
- 33:12Speaker 1: hearing rumors that the primer is as loaded as it's
- 33:16Speaker 1: been all season long. Evan, what is the most common
- 33:19Speaker 1: theme that you have come across in the primer this week?
- 33:23Speaker 5: Yeah, so stuck.
- 33:24Speaker 6: He knows this more than anyone, and we kind of
- 33:27Speaker 6: have been working on this together since he's been here,
- 33:29Speaker 6: which is now, like, I don't know, close to a decade,
- 33:31Speaker 6: and it's basically these last two weeks, you're fading teams
- 33:34Speaker 6: that need to win. He knows this I know this.
- 33:36Speaker 6: It's sixty one percent, as he mentioned, want toweight and
- 33:39Speaker 6: sixty nine, And basically what it is is you're betting
- 33:41Speaker 6: teams who are eliminated against teams you need to win
- 33:44Speaker 6: right now. That is Vikings, Browns and Dolphins. You know,
- 33:49Speaker 6: as it's been mentioned by a bunch of people, we're
- 33:51Speaker 6: kind of short on games that matter this time of year,
- 33:54Speaker 6: So that's where we sit with this one. The other
- 33:57Speaker 6: one that's kind of interesting is just teams that middle pack.
- 34:01Speaker 6: So sixty percent win percentage week sixteen or later twenty
- 34:07Speaker 6: seven and seventy two against the spread, absolutely ridiculous. With
- 34:10Speaker 6: the worst win percentage. So it's in the primer that'd
- 34:12Speaker 6: be Dallas this week. But my recommendation is I don't
- 34:15Speaker 6: want to go anywhere near that Josh Johnson third stringer.
- 34:18Speaker 5: It's it's a bit of a mess.
- 34:19Speaker 6: So I think the other trend fits a lot of
- 34:22Speaker 6: the things we've talked about, so Vikings, Browns, and Dolphins,
- 34:25Speaker 6: and I think.
- 34:25Speaker 5: That's really the theme of this week.
- 34:27Speaker 6: The other one I'll give you is this, so Chiefs
- 34:30Speaker 6: sitting at plus thirteen and a half right now, would
- 34:33Speaker 6: be the biggest home dog for the Chiefs franchise in
- 34:37Speaker 6: their history. They closed plus thirteen in nineteen seventy seven
- 34:41Speaker 6: against the Raiders and Ken Stabler. And right now that
- 34:45Speaker 6: is above that line. And here's the crazier one. So
- 34:48Speaker 6: the Chiefs are on a seven game ATS losing streak.
- 34:51Speaker 6: They also lost seven straight against the spread last year,
- 34:55Speaker 6: so they'd be the first team in the Super Bowl
- 34:56Speaker 6: era to have back to back years of seven game
- 34:59Speaker 6: eighty A losing streaks.
- 35:00Speaker 5: They're literally the worst bet you.
- 35:03Speaker 6: Could make over the last two seasons, So pretty crazy
- 35:06Speaker 6: with candall was starting exactly yeah or minshew, but that
- 35:11Speaker 6: didn't do so well last week.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Yeah, fair Eagles Bills is going to be a heavily
- 35:16Speaker 1: bet contest. To get the Buffalo Bills as minus one
- 35:19Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. I assume that that part
- 35:22Speaker 1: of that spread and where it is. The Bill's only
- 35:25Speaker 1: playing two more games at their home stadium before they
- 35:28Speaker 1: wrap it up, and you know that they want to
- 35:31Speaker 1: send those fans out of out of that stadium with
- 35:35Speaker 1: a big old smile on their face. Josh Allen is
- 35:38Speaker 1: on the injury report and he impacts the line in
- 35:40Speaker 1: a major way. But anything as far as the Eagles
- 35:42Speaker 1: and the Bills go where trends can point us in
- 35:46Speaker 1: one direction or the other.
- 35:47Speaker 6: As always, I can give you both sides. So I'll
- 35:49Speaker 6: say this, Josh Allen, he's ozing two against the Eagles.
- 35:52Speaker 6: His career means a little means a lot kind of
- 35:54Speaker 6: how you look at it. So hasn't done well there
- 35:56Speaker 6: fill into cover by almost ten points per game as well,
- 35:59Speaker 6: So maybe thorn in the side. But from Buffalo's standpoint
- 36:02Speaker 6: five and zero against the spread facing teams above five
- 36:06Speaker 6: hundred this year most wins without a loss for any
- 36:09Speaker 6: team in the NFL, So a little bit how you
- 36:10Speaker 6: look at it, I think I'd have to look into.
- 36:13Speaker 5: The Eagles stuff a little bit more to look at
- 36:15Speaker 5: how he's played.
- 36:16Speaker 6: If you look at some of the numbers, betweind Josh
- 36:18Speaker 6: Allen this year really different at home versus road.
- 36:22Speaker 5: Much better at home on the road, I believe it.
- 36:24Speaker 6: Passer rating is almost thirty points different home versus road
- 36:28Speaker 6: for Josh Allen, so home seems to be some cooking
- 36:31Speaker 6: for him.
- 36:33Speaker 4: I will say that Allen should have beat the It
- 36:35Speaker 4: was typical Eagles luck box win last year. Yeah, Eagles
- 36:38Speaker 4: beat him in overtime at in Philly, I think that
- 36:43Speaker 4: there was like so many fluky things that happened in
- 36:45Speaker 4: that game, it was unbelievable. I think the Bills out
- 36:49Speaker 4: gained them like five ten to three forty or something,
- 36:53Speaker 4: and they lost in overtime on a bunch of fluke
- 36:55Speaker 4: stuff missed field goals. So he did play well. I
- 36:58Speaker 4: think the final score was like thirty eight thirty five.
- 37:00Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that five their own numbers intriguing in
- 37:03Speaker 6: terms of what they've done against good teams Stucky.
- 37:05Speaker 1: Do you think that that line indicates some real question
- 37:09Speaker 1: marks about his health.
- 37:12Speaker 4: Uh, I can't imagine him not playing.
- 37:17Speaker 1: I think Dermott said that he is expected to play,
- 37:20Speaker 1: so yeah, I don't think they're hedging this too much.
- 37:23Speaker 4: No, I mean, I think there's probably some people that
- 37:24Speaker 4: make that line like one and a half. Not much
- 37:28Speaker 4: difference between these two teams. Lane Johnson is he back?
- 37:32Speaker 4: That's important for the Eagles. Still, I'm still not buying
- 37:35Speaker 4: this Eagles like offensive resurgence. Like I thought they were
- 37:37Speaker 4: gonna lose that game against Washington until Mariota got hurt,
- 37:40Speaker 4: and you know, Johnson throws that horrendous pick, which I mean,
- 37:44Speaker 4: there was no Washington, no chance once Mariota went out. Also, Elliott,
- 37:49Speaker 4: is he broken that could come into play. He looks
- 37:53Speaker 4: like he's completely lost. I will say Hurts is running
- 37:56Speaker 4: a bit more, which is helping their offense. I don't
- 37:59Speaker 4: know why they weren't doing that earlier, but you know
- 38:02Speaker 4: they beat the last two weeks. They beat the Raiders
- 38:05Speaker 4: and the Commanders with a third string quarterback and they
- 38:09Speaker 4: had to I mean had Commandis had even more injuries
- 38:11Speaker 4: during the game. Offensive line, they were without their left tack,
- 38:13Speaker 4: they lost their left guard, they'd lost a bunch more defenders,
- 38:17Speaker 4: and it's a defense that can't stop anyone. So now
- 38:19Speaker 4: the Bills aren't a great defense either, but if that
- 38:23Speaker 4: keeps going down, I'll probably look at the Bills.
- 38:25Speaker 1: There, Kendrick, should we just be looking to back Buffalo
- 38:29Speaker 1: in these final couple of games in Orchard Park?
- 38:32Speaker 3: So I very much am thinking that Buffalo is about
- 38:37Speaker 3: to go on a run here. I don't know if
- 38:40Speaker 3: any Here's the thing, when I look at the AFC
- 38:42Speaker 3: playoff picture, they're the team that I don't want to play.
- 38:44Speaker 3: Does anybody feel differently about that?
- 38:47Speaker 1: I think they'd be at the top of the list because.
- 38:49Speaker 4: The Chiefs got in with akon. I don't know.
- 38:53Speaker 3: Maybe, and in order for that to happen, you have
- 38:56Speaker 3: to win both of these games back to back. Obviously
- 38:58Speaker 3: they want to say no, no, lack of reason to
- 39:01Speaker 3: get up here. I'm on the Bills probably no matter what.
- 39:04Speaker 3: Probably not gonna bet this game though, just because it
- 39:07Speaker 3: feels yucky for some reason. But I'm I'm behind the
- 39:10Speaker 3: Bills when they get in through the postseason for sure.
- 39:14Speaker 4: Evan, Yeah, well they can't. We really can't win the
- 39:16Speaker 4: division though.
- 39:17Speaker 3: No they can't.
- 39:19Speaker 4: Because I mean all the Patriots somehow play two more
- 39:21Speaker 4: backup quarterbacks to close the year. Although Brandon will be
- 39:24Speaker 4: on the Dogs, could be.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Could be kind of stinky. I don't know the page.
- 39:30Speaker 3: I the Patriots have to be in bet yail for me.
- 39:32Speaker 3: After I had the Ravens the other night, I seriously
- 39:35Speaker 3: cannot touch them again or I might get fired from
- 39:38Speaker 3: another job.
- 39:39Speaker 2: But yeah, I.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Don't know that you have a great You're too close
- 39:41Speaker 1: to the fire. I don't think you have a good
- 39:42Speaker 1: read on the paper.
- 39:43Speaker 4: You're starting quarterback. If you're starting quarterback, it's certain just
- 39:47Speaker 4: the taffit's uh, you're gonna lose your bet. I mean,
- 39:49Speaker 4: I had the the Raids. I had the commanders like
- 39:53Speaker 4: you just sometimes that happens sometimes your starting quarterback.
- 39:55Speaker 3: They leave Derek Henry out for the fourth quarter, who's
- 39:58Speaker 3: the same.
- 39:59Speaker 2: The Ravens would have covered that with Lamar.
- 40:01Speaker 3: I think that would have won that game, no question,
- 40:05Speaker 3: if Lamar didn't get hurt and they played the best
- 40:09Speaker 3: running back in the league.
- 40:10Speaker 2: But what do I now?
- 40:11Speaker 4: They also could have the Patriots continue to get every fumble?
- 40:13Speaker 4: Would they have five fuffles and there's five funbles? Again,
- 40:15Speaker 4: they covered four of them. I think they recovered like
- 40:19Speaker 4: eighty three percent of opponents fumbles and have lost only
- 40:22Speaker 4: like thirty percent of theirs. That's and considering they played
- 40:26Speaker 4: nothing but backup quarterbacks all year, that's a little worrisome.
- 40:29Speaker 4: And Drake may put the ball in Harm's way again
- 40:31Speaker 4: a bunch. He's been amazing, but I think he had
- 40:33Speaker 4: three or four turnover worth. He plays a drop pick
- 40:35Speaker 4: that would have ended the game, So he's getting away.
- 40:39Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to be that one They're going to
- 40:42Speaker 1: be that one seed that gets a bye and then
- 40:44Speaker 1: loses in their first opportunity.
- 40:46Speaker 3: So I agree, especially because they're so injured right now.
- 40:49Speaker 3: They are so especially on defense. It's unbelievable.
- 40:55Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you gotta get made make throw some
- 40:57Speaker 4: amazing deep balls.
- 40:59Speaker 3: And he's playing three and eighty yards the other night
- 41:02Speaker 3: and played like that like he had three bad quarters
- 41:04Speaker 3: of football and still when I think like thirty one
- 41:07Speaker 3: four for three eighty and two touchdown.
- 41:10Speaker 4: Yeah, and there was a miss like fifty yard pi.
- 41:12Speaker 4: I don't know how they didn't call that was bad.
- 41:15Speaker 4: So but yeah, it looks like the Bills are going
- 41:18Speaker 4: to be a wild card and as of right now,
- 41:23Speaker 4: it looks like they will go to Pittsburgh, so like Schitsburg,
- 41:28Speaker 4: who they already went and just ran all over. We'll
- 41:31Speaker 4: see if the Steelers make an adjustment to the play
- 41:34Speaker 4: that the Bills ran thirty times.
- 41:36Speaker 1: In good Luck trying to stop good Luck trying to
- 41:38Speaker 1: stop Kenneth Ladenian game gain Well, you know, Evan, go

- 41:52Speaker 1: your Mary Oy, our two Kings and a Queen parlay
- 42:05Speaker 1: for reminders.
- 42:06Speaker 2: We will each nominate two plays.
- 42:08Speaker 1: See if we can find some general consensus on the
- 42:10Speaker 1: board and eventually land on our team built parlay Stucky,
- 42:15Speaker 1: get us started.
- 42:17Speaker 4: We're going ugly as you might imagine. Week seventeen, Browns
- 42:22Speaker 4: fit the ball. Steelers need to win. Browns playing home
- 42:26Speaker 4: divisional dog. You know, I mean almost always bet them
- 42:28Speaker 4: the Browns. Last week. I was always bet the Garrett
- 42:31Speaker 4: Garrett I hope gets the records.
- 42:35Speaker 3: He's so sick.
- 42:37Speaker 4: Their defense always plays much better at home. I Plus,
- 42:42Speaker 4: there's no Dk Metcalf for the Steelers to suspend. It
- 42:45Speaker 4: that makes the Steelers easier to defend. Like you can
- 42:46Speaker 4: just watch when defenses play, you know, when the Steers
- 42:49Speaker 4: are in the red zone or like they have they
- 42:51Speaker 4: have a safety shading over to Metcalf. And now it's like,
- 42:56Speaker 4: you know, can we talk about that gotty Miller Adam
- 42:58Speaker 4: feeling like so yeah, so and this there's gonna be
- 43:04Speaker 4: like thirty mile hour wins in this this game, this
- 43:05Speaker 4: total might close to like thirty. So like getting four
- 43:08Speaker 4: points in this four and a half points in this
- 43:09Speaker 4: game is like getting ten. There's also many like so
- 43:13Speaker 4: this is now the Browns super Bowl at home, try
- 43:16Speaker 4: to spoil the Steelers. There's also scenariohe the Steelers already
- 43:18Speaker 4: clinched the division and they're playing for nothing. If the
- 43:20Speaker 4: Ravens lose to the Packers, and then what happens, well,
- 43:24Speaker 4: the sorts of a ton of injuries as well, offensive line,
- 43:27Speaker 4: defensive line, so they might rest guys that are hurt.
- 43:32Speaker 4: Do you hold back guys that are dealing with injuries
- 43:34Speaker 4: you know you're not gonna have Metcalf? Do you put
- 43:37Speaker 4: Rogers out there in harm's way against Garrett? Probably not?
- 43:40Speaker 4: So what does that mean? I mean, even if he plays,
- 43:41Speaker 4: you probably run the ball seventy times. You're playing for
- 43:44Speaker 4: nothing and then this game ends like seven to six.
- 43:49Speaker 4: That's my first one.
- 43:50Speaker 1: What's the case for the Raiders because I'm sold by
- 43:53Speaker 1: the way, my vote is gonna be on the Browns
- 43:54Speaker 1: unless you blow men.
- 43:55Speaker 4: I love the Raiders here. The Raiders are not like
- 43:58Speaker 4: this is like everyone's gonna say it's a tank off.
- 44:01Speaker 2: What it like?
- 44:01Speaker 4: I don't think either one of these teams is outwardly
- 44:03Speaker 4: tanking where it could come into plays like who you
- 44:06Speaker 4: sit out or make sure there's a one out of there.
- 44:09Speaker 4: I'm denominating the Raiders money. I took them early in
- 44:11Speaker 4: the week. Getting costs money where you see the tanks, Like,
- 44:14Speaker 4: if one team these these two tank ish teams, at
- 44:17Speaker 4: the end of the year, one team scores at the end,
- 44:20Speaker 4: there's no reason to go to overtime. So he might
- 44:22Speaker 4: just call the worst two point conversion play of all time.
- 44:26Speaker 4: We've seen that in the past. So he might just
- 44:27Speaker 4: call like a triple reverse and lose the game by one.
- 44:33Speaker 4: So but here's the thing. Dart is broken right now,
- 44:36Speaker 4: not running as much he was. I mean, he didn't
- 44:39Speaker 4: complete a pass with the whole first half last week.
- 44:42Speaker 4: I don't know if he said a sophomore slump, it's
- 44:45Speaker 4: after his injury, just not the same quarterback. They also
- 44:48Speaker 4: have a ton of offensive line injuries, and the Giants
- 44:50Speaker 4: are one team that cannot afford any offensive line injuries.
- 44:53Speaker 4: The Raiders, meanwhile, yeah, I mean Andrew Thomas is like
- 44:57Speaker 4: we've seen this in the past. When Andrew Thomas goes out,
- 44:59Speaker 4: this unit turns into dust. That's what's happened to the Raiders.
- 45:04Speaker 4: Who might maybe they'll get Colton Miller back Pro Bowl
- 45:07Speaker 4: caliber left tackle, and the Raiders they're gonna have like
- 45:13Speaker 4: you have Brock Bowers, you have Genty, who's going up
- 45:16Speaker 4: against the league's worst rush defense, so I think that
- 45:20Speaker 4: they'll be able to run the ball. And here's who
- 45:23Speaker 4: the Raiders have played over the past five weeks. The
- 45:29Speaker 4: Browns defense, the Chargers defense, the Broncos defense, the Eagles defense,
- 45:33Speaker 4: and the Texans defense. Are those five top seven defenses.
- 45:40Speaker 4: That's who they played over the past five weeks. They
- 45:42Speaker 4: played the Broncos before that, the Jags before that. Like,
- 45:47Speaker 4: their schedule has been vicious, So this will be a
- 45:50Speaker 4: nice break for Gino for genty to get going. Who
- 45:55Speaker 4: got going last week against Houston. So I just trust
- 45:58Speaker 4: that Raiders offense much more. Their defense, I think is
- 46:01Speaker 4: even better than the Giants defense. They're at home. Pete
- 46:04Speaker 4: Carroll is not a.
- 46:06Speaker 3: Tanking also Pete Carroll podcast.
- 46:09Speaker 4: And the Raiders. By the way, these are my two
- 46:11Speaker 4: most profitable teams in twenty twenty five. I've been the
- 46:15Speaker 4: Raiders and the Browns, and so that's who I'm dominating here,
- 46:19Speaker 4: the Raiders in the Browns.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Damn, you know, I like them both with is that bad?
- 46:23Speaker 1: I kind of got me with that one. Actually, that
- 46:26Speaker 1: was good that you definitely sold me on some ash
- 46:28Speaker 1: gent props. That's for sure. Definitely going to add that
- 46:30Speaker 1: to the card. I'll still vote Browns, but you almost
- 46:35Speaker 1: you almost got me.
- 46:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna go Browns as well, but I I
- 46:39Speaker 3: don't hate either of them, So Browns all right?
- 46:43Speaker 2: All right?
- 46:44Speaker 3: Points though not money Line. I'm a coward.
- 46:47Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, especially in the game of total of
- 46:50Speaker 4: that is trending towards like thirty one. Heaven, who would
- 46:54Speaker 4: you vote for?
- 46:56Speaker 5: I believe them, but I want to buy it to four.
- 46:58Speaker 2: It's three and a half.
- 47:01Speaker 1: Yeah, Drafts is allowing the slider to four and a half,
- 47:04Speaker 1: So we're gonna put four and a half in the parlay.
- 47:06Speaker 4: Okay, good, That's the number I bet earlier in the week.
- 47:09Speaker 3: So all right, Kendra, I really only have one nomination,
- 47:15Speaker 3: but I gave you a second option just in case.
- 47:18Speaker 3: I really love the Bengals this week. They didn't take
- 47:21Speaker 3: their foot. What they didn't take they didn't take their
- 47:24Speaker 3: foot off the gas last week I expected them to.
- 47:27Speaker 3: Joe Burrow just says he wants to go out there
- 47:28Speaker 3: play football and have fun. The fact that he didn't
- 47:31Speaker 3: sit and try and nurse that foot when he could
- 47:33Speaker 3: have last week, I think says a lot. I think
- 47:36Speaker 3: they're gonna go out there hoop, have some fun score
- 47:38Speaker 3: some points on a bad team, and I don't. I
- 47:41Speaker 3: don't think that there's any argument against that at this
- 47:43Speaker 3: point against a bad team. However, I know that Krevitz
- 47:48Speaker 3: also has the opposite side of that. So I'm gonna
- 47:50Speaker 3: give you guys the Lions minus six just because must
- 47:53Speaker 3: win game. I get that they're injured, but they got absolutely.
- 47:57Speaker 4: Just the game.
- 47:59Speaker 3: The other man what I do think it was a
- 48:02Speaker 3: correct call, but we were all sitting here screaming at
- 48:04Speaker 3: that game. I think that they have to come out
- 48:06Speaker 3: be ready, must win game against a bad Vikings team
- 48:09Speaker 3: on their third string quarterback. Love the Max Brosmer regardless,
- 48:13Speaker 3: I those are my two nominations.
- 48:15Speaker 4: I can't I will not bet the I can't bet
- 48:17Speaker 4: the lines. I'll tell you that. I mean, that's Evan
- 48:20Speaker 4: already talk about this. I probably gonna end up betting
- 48:22Speaker 4: the Vikings. I just if Brosmer gets ruled. Is he
- 48:25Speaker 4: not a ruled officially in yet? I'm pretty sure he's playing.
- 48:29Speaker 4: But sometimes when the team they get bump in the market,
- 48:34Speaker 4: what's that.
- 48:35Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to be JJ right, like,
- 48:36Speaker 3: I don't think so either.
- 48:37Speaker 2: I mean, would wait, I would wait on that.
- 48:39Speaker 4: I'm just saying, like maybe you get another bump when
- 48:41Speaker 4: it's announced.
- 48:42Speaker 3: I mean, this line is just so Bengals to me.
- 48:45Speaker 4: But no, I mean the line stink people Like they
- 48:48Speaker 4: just lost to the Steelers at home and I must
- 48:49Speaker 4: win game. This is this, this is not this, and
- 48:53Speaker 4: they're so hurt. They have no offensive line now, so
- 48:55Speaker 4: like going to floor as defense. McCarthy already beat them
- 48:58Speaker 4: when he when he was horrendous on the road. You
- 49:01Speaker 4: have offensive line injuries, your defense is I mean the
- 49:04Speaker 4: Lions defense they got, they got nobody left. They their
- 49:07Speaker 4: defense has allowed four hundred and sixty yards per game
- 49:10Speaker 4: over the last five games. The Bengals are dead last
- 49:13Speaker 4: enough I'll allowing four to h two. No, I can't
- 49:17Speaker 4: I cann occupy the lines, I now, Bengals, Yeah, I
- 49:24Speaker 4: could see. Just the Cardinals are so hurt, and I
- 49:28Speaker 4: don't know how they get any stops because like Bengal
- 49:32Speaker 4: flat got Flacco. Burrow can just dink and dunk all
- 49:36Speaker 4: the way down the field on them and they're gonna
- 49:37Speaker 4: hit some explosives too. Like, I don't know how the
- 49:39Speaker 4: Cardinals get any stops, and like who is left on
- 49:42Speaker 4: the Cardinals roster but Kravitz likes the I know he's
- 49:47Speaker 4: going to try to nominate the Cardinals. I don't know
- 49:52Speaker 4: hard early in the week because.
- 49:53Speaker 3: Of all the Kravits. I hate your nominations, all right,
- 49:58Speaker 3: So you're.
- 49:59Speaker 4: Gonna vote for the long, vot for the I'm not.
- 50:01Speaker 1: I'm voting for an alternate. I'm voting for an alternate idea.
- 50:04Speaker 1: I cannot and I'll give it to you in a second.
- 50:06Speaker 1: I cannot believe that I am the one that has
- 50:09Speaker 1: to nominate the sad Cats every single week on this podcast.
- 50:13Speaker 1: I'm trying to slowly convert us from a JAG's cast
- 50:16Speaker 1: to a Panthers cast.
- 50:17Speaker 2: Plus seven and a half.
- 50:18Speaker 3: I started the Panthers movement. Screw you.
- 50:21Speaker 1: You handed the ball off, and I've taken it to
- 50:24Speaker 1: the house.
- 50:24Speaker 4: Here.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Somebody has to do it. This one's simple. This is
- 50:27Speaker 1: what Carolina does. They're the Carolina repet vote.
- 50:30Speaker 4: We have to vote on Kendris first.
- 50:31Speaker 1: I'm i'm I'm laying this out there because we're going
- 50:33Speaker 1: to spend more time on the other My other idea.
- 50:36Speaker 1: Five and one against the spread as a home underdoger
- 50:38Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers, They've covered nine straight against NFC opponents.
- 50:43Speaker 2: So I like the Panthers. But my idea that I think.
- 50:47Speaker 1: We might like here is that we marry our Cardinals
- 50:50Speaker 1: Bengals pick because both of us are of the same mindset.
- 50:54Speaker 1: You like the Bengals because you think they're going to
- 50:56Speaker 1: put up a bunch of points on a sad sack
- 50:59Speaker 1: Cardinals defense. I think the Bengals are just as bad,
- 51:03Speaker 1: if not worse than Arizona, and they're not gonna be
- 51:06Speaker 1: able to get any stops.
- 51:07Speaker 2: So I think we should take the over.
- 51:09Speaker 1: I think we should put the over fifty three and
- 51:11Speaker 1: a half into the parlay, and then we can kind
- 51:14Speaker 1: of both.
- 51:15Speaker 3: There are the Cardinals getting those points from though their.
- 51:18Speaker 1: Offense has been awesome with Jacoby Brissett and they have
- 51:22Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison junior back, and the Bengals are the worst
- 51:25Speaker 1: defense in the league against the tight end position. Trey
- 51:28Speaker 1: McBride's the best tight end in the game. They're not
- 51:30Speaker 1: gonna stop the guy.
- 51:31Speaker 4: Bengals money line. We're putting Bengals money line in there.
- 51:35Speaker 4: Get Evans vote. We can't change her pick to a total.
- 51:38Speaker 4: I had heaven, what do you what would you decide here?
- 51:41Speaker 6: But it's between Bengals, and what what are the.
- 51:44Speaker 4: Bengals that we could go Bengals spread. We also can
- 51:47Speaker 4: just throw Bengals money line in. There are lines. I
- 51:49Speaker 4: know you're not gonna pick the Lions.
- 51:51Speaker 6: I mean, oh my god, Lions money line? I guess
- 51:55Speaker 6: could be something.
- 51:57Speaker 5: No, okay, well stuck, you just gave me that.
- 52:00Speaker 4: Oh no, you know better than to do the team
- 52:02Speaker 4: us to win on the road.
- 52:04Speaker 1: So we're gonna put a minus three eighty money line
- 52:06Speaker 1: into the parlay?
- 52:07Speaker 2: What are we doing? It's what about?
- 52:09Speaker 4: Wait?
- 52:10Speaker 5: What about a suggestion off the cuff?
- 52:12Speaker 6: What if we did like Bengals first half or something
- 52:15Speaker 6: like that?
- 52:16Speaker 5: Is that feel? I don't know, it's it's I guess
- 52:18Speaker 5: it's four and a half. That sucks too.
- 52:19Speaker 2: This, I mean it has to be approved by Kendra.
- 52:21Speaker 2: This is her nomination.
- 52:22Speaker 3: We can't we can't put Bengals panther is whatever?
- 52:27Speaker 4: Well all right, so wait, wait, wait, Devin, who would
- 52:30Speaker 4: you pick between the Bengals minus the points or the Lions?
- 52:36Speaker 5: This is a Colon Stocking situation. Give me the Bengals.
- 52:40Speaker 3: Also, we are sitting here argue every time we sit
- 52:44Speaker 3: here and argue over this fucking parlay for more than
- 52:47Speaker 3: four minutes, it hits. So every time we sit here
- 52:52Speaker 3: and we're like, I don't think right.
- 52:55Speaker 5: Now, Bengals will let's do this? Does DraftKings allow us
- 52:57Speaker 5: to get under the seven? Like give me the six
- 53:00Speaker 5: and a half or something like that, I gott't.
- 53:02Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, well let me let me play around here.
- 53:05Speaker 1: So well, so you guys are good with the Panthers,
- 53:08Speaker 1: there's no.
- 53:09Speaker 4: Well, the other choices the Cardinals.
- 53:12Speaker 1: So but just even in general, for people out there
- 53:17Speaker 1: that want to bet it straight, I already bet the
- 53:19Speaker 1: Panthers plus seven and a half?
- 53:21Speaker 2: Stucky? Would you?
- 53:22Speaker 1: Would you sign off on that? For those out there
- 53:25Speaker 1: that are listening, that want to that want to take
- 53:27Speaker 1: that while I I'm just trying to buy time while
- 53:29Speaker 1: I put this in the app here.
- 53:30Speaker 4: I'm waiting get some injury stuff there. I'm close, but
- 53:35Speaker 4: over a touchdown out I don't. I'm not gonna oppose it.
- 53:38Speaker 2: Okay.
- 53:39Speaker 1: So we have the Browns plus four and a half
- 53:43Speaker 1: against the Steelers, we have the Panthers plus seven and
- 53:45Speaker 1: a half at home against the Seahawks, and the Bengals
- 53:49Speaker 1: down to minus six and a half against the Cardinals.
- 53:52Speaker 1: That is plus four sixty four over Undraftkings.
- 53:57Speaker 2: The crown is yours, you weirdos.
- 54:01Speaker 3: Well, get ready for another parlay to cash.
- 54:04Speaker 2: So you know what this feels like.
- 54:06Speaker 1: This feels like the middle of a Christmas get together
- 54:09Speaker 1: with the family where it was going well and then
- 54:11Speaker 1: it just gets really fucking awkward out of nowhere and
- 54:14Speaker 1: you're like, I think we got.
- 54:16Speaker 2: To go now.
- 54:16Speaker 3: I think Grandma starts talking about politics and you're like, all.
- 54:19Speaker 2: Right, that's right.
- 54:24Speaker 1: Uh, this did not feel like consensus.
- 54:26Speaker 4: But listen, the Browns are the only team those consensus.
- 54:30Speaker 4: What a were on it?
- 54:32Speaker 2: We should just parlay our our plant the flags. There's that.
- 54:35Speaker 1: We were much more happy to fortnutes ago. No, I
- 54:38Speaker 1: like this, all right, fine, there you go, and I'll
