- 1:44Speaker 1: the Phillis. I don't Sports equox what a day joke.
- 1:50Speaker 1: By the way, sports equalnox there is so much to
- 1:53Speaker 1: bet on today. We got n HL. For those who
- 1:56Speaker 1: don't know, sports equinox is basically when the four major
- 1:59Speaker 1: sport are all playing on the same day. It's happened
- 2:02Speaker 1: twenty seven times. It's NHL, n b A, Major League, Baseball,
- 2:07Speaker 1: and NFL. Not that easy to get baseball, NFL, NBA
- 2:11Speaker 1: and hockey playing at the same time. That's why it's
- 2:13Speaker 1: an equinox. Doesn't happen that often. I want to welcome
- 2:16Speaker 1: in our live listeners on AMP. We we love doing
- 2:22Speaker 1: the show. It's really exciting to do it live. Uh
- 2:26Speaker 1: and Simon. In today's episode, we're gonna finalize our final
- 2:30Speaker 1: five or get closer. We'll go over sharp calls, We'll
- 2:34Speaker 1: do Scoot Roulette, will do the money line, Ron Robin.
- 2:37Speaker 1: I will remind people that on the previous episode we
- 2:41Speaker 1: gave away Foxhole. Bet was fort plus three. That's now
- 2:45Speaker 1: two and a half. Simon says Washington plus five and
- 2:48Speaker 1: a half, it's now four and a half. Exact decision
- 2:51Speaker 1: was Texans plus seven. That's still seven. We got a
- 2:55Speaker 1: lot to discuss, Like, there's value in listening to it live.
- 2:58Speaker 1: So I'm happy for the people that are because if
- 3:00Speaker 1: they're listening and making the plays that we suggest in
- 3:03Speaker 1: the moment, you're getting the best of the number. And
- 3:05Speaker 1: for those who didn't listen live, that's fine. These numbers
- 3:08Speaker 1: started moving like over last night and this morning. You're
- 3:11Speaker 1: not like penalized by listening to it later. Yeah, and
- 3:16Speaker 1: enjoy the live show because I have no no doubt
- 3:18Speaker 1: my mind, there's no way agree to this on my
- 3:20Speaker 1: next contract with Chat. I just every show live. Yes,
- 3:24Speaker 1: enjoy this while it lasts. I just I'm the most
- 3:27Speaker 1: unprofessional person ever. So if people think this is me
- 3:29Speaker 1: being while this is as tamed as I can be,
- 3:31Speaker 1: I promise you um as long as the winning keeps going,
- 3:34Speaker 1: I could care less, but no more offhand joke, especially
- 3:37Speaker 1: scientology jokes. I will not mention scientology. This is the
- 3:40Speaker 1: last time I would say scientology again. Everyone thinks you're
- 3:43Speaker 1: a Scientology's Chat. You fit the profile to a t.
- 3:46Speaker 1: You're gonna live forever. You're shady as hell. You're up
- 3:49Speaker 1: in Connecticut. Something's going on there? What is shady about me?
- 3:53Speaker 1: I am the most transparent, authentic. What you see, whizzy
- 3:58Speaker 1: wig is what you get? Guy? Yeah right, you act
- 4:01Speaker 1: like this nice weet guy. We all know Chat your killer.
- 4:05Speaker 1: You fit the profile scientologist serial killer Chad moment. Oh
- 4:09Speaker 1: my god, that is crazy. I couldn't be more bored.
- 4:15Speaker 1: My life is exactly as it as it is. It
- 4:20Speaker 1: was a story, right. There was a story in the
- 4:22Speaker 1: New York Times this week about how people are drinking less,
- 4:25Speaker 1: a lot of it to do with health and wellness.
- 4:28Speaker 1: And I thought to myself, I'm drinking less because of
- 4:30Speaker 1: health and wellness, because I want to be able to
- 4:32Speaker 1: get up in the morning. I want to have a
- 4:33Speaker 1: good night's sleep. I don't find the value in saying
- 4:36Speaker 1: how cool it is I got wasted. Don't only slept
- 4:38Speaker 1: for four hours, like I want to sleep for as
- 4:40Speaker 1: long as I can, and I don't want to get
- 4:42Speaker 1: up and do my exercise. So you might be right
- 4:44Speaker 1: about that. If scientology means living well, man, that could
- 4:49Speaker 1: be a scientiology. Now your vice is gambling. That's a
- 4:51Speaker 1: good dvice to have. It's true, It's totally true. I
- 4:55Speaker 1: mentioned sharp calls. That is when are wise guys start
- 4:59Speaker 1: peeing us about out what games we talked about. What's
- 5:02Speaker 1: interesting about the live stuff is they were pinning you
- 5:04Speaker 1: when we were talking about the Niners and the chiefs
- 5:07Speaker 1: of plus three saying bet it right away. They loved it.
- 5:09Speaker 1: So what else did people call about in our cheff calls? Hello,
- 5:18Speaker 1: who's there? I'm talking? Maybe? Yeah, I thought that was
- 5:27Speaker 1: oney that a couple of buddies, Um, a couple of
- 5:29Speaker 1: the pros download the app, the ampapp and when were
- 5:32Speaker 1: listening to us live, and as soon as we gave
- 5:34Speaker 1: out the forty niners, they're just like, that's that's gotta
- 5:36Speaker 1: be the one. You gotta give that out. So yeah,
- 5:38Speaker 1: we were luckily on it down to two and a half. Now. Um,
- 5:42Speaker 1: again we were texting about it. I thought the line
- 5:44Speaker 1: was gonna move based off the fourty night as injury
- 5:46Speaker 1: move it was positive. It was positive injury news. The
- 5:49Speaker 1: line moved down. So again, these pros, they're on the
- 5:52Speaker 1: last week with the Bills. I think maybe the general
- 5:55Speaker 1: public is too high in the Chiefs and they should be.
- 5:56Speaker 1: I still think the Chiefs are so good. Maybe they're
- 5:59Speaker 1: just gonna slump here, and that's what the pros are
- 6:01Speaker 1: betting on, because crazy the book moved the two and
- 6:04Speaker 1: a half on this number. Like we talked about it,
- 6:06Speaker 1: every every Joe Schmoll that walks into a casino this
- 6:09Speaker 1: weekend is going to see a two and a half
- 6:12Speaker 1: line on a Chiefs team that they envisioned is much
- 6:14Speaker 1: better than a four and niners team, and everyone's gonna
- 6:16Speaker 1: be taking that. Where Again, it's me and Chad's job
- 6:19Speaker 1: to look at the other way and what are four
- 6:22Speaker 1: straints and what are the weaknesses of that Chiefs team.
- 6:25Speaker 1: And obviously it's the run game that favors his four
- 6:27Speaker 1: Nighters team so heavily against again a run team that's
- 6:30Speaker 1: not been good stopping the run last three weeks and
- 6:32Speaker 1: the Chiefs team. So that was a call. I got
- 6:34Speaker 1: a bunch just a lot of pros love the four
- 6:36Speaker 1: Niners this week the line movement reflected that. Um, the
- 6:40Speaker 1: next one what I got called about again the line
- 6:42Speaker 1: has already moved a decent amount um right when we
- 6:46Speaker 1: talked about it Seattle, Well, hold on to Seattle. Let
- 6:49Speaker 1: me say one thing about the four and Niners and
- 6:51Speaker 1: the Chiefs, just from a betting perspective. Uh, you mentioned
- 6:55Speaker 1: the public is going to be all over the Chiefs.
- 6:58Speaker 1: The bets on the chief right now, and this line
- 7:01Speaker 1: moved in the opposite direction, went from three to two
- 7:04Speaker 1: and a half. So that should tell you everything you
- 7:06Speaker 1: need to know about how much money is coming in
- 7:10Speaker 1: on the fort And I will say what's interesting is
- 7:13Speaker 1: earlier in the week about of the money was on
- 7:16Speaker 1: the forty nine on the Chiefs. Now you're seeing that
- 7:20Speaker 1: percentage shrink because of the forty niners, injury news and
- 7:24Speaker 1: so much wise gut money has moved this down. So
- 7:27Speaker 1: you're starting to see a real discrepancy here. Yeah, it's
- 7:30Speaker 1: an old saying. I mean, I'm sure Scooch told you
- 7:32Speaker 1: a few times. A bookmaker loves to say it. It's
- 7:35Speaker 1: the pro comes in. They've bet ten thousand, they might
- 7:39Speaker 1: move a line the public and coming with millions of
- 7:41Speaker 1: dollars and they'll just keep a line where it's at.
- 7:43Speaker 1: It's just that's one of the biggest things you look
- 7:45Speaker 1: for is certain guys moved numbers. The public does not,
- 7:49Speaker 1: so unless that pro is you or me, And if
- 7:51Speaker 1: we bet a hundred dollars, the line moves apparently, But again,
- 7:55Speaker 1: our show gets reaches so many people. Um, I still
- 7:58Speaker 1: think we do move lines with the show. So yeah, Seattle.
- 8:01Speaker 1: I was not surprised that pros we're gonna be on it.
- 8:04Speaker 1: My surprise is more so that the general public would
- 8:06Speaker 1: be so in on Seattle. Where again, it just feels
- 8:10Speaker 1: like even against the Cardinals, people are betting the Cardinals
- 8:13Speaker 1: on the road against Seattle, I just felt like people
- 8:16Speaker 1: already gotten off the Geno train. They're waiting for the
- 8:18Speaker 1: other shooter drop and here he is. He opened at seven,
- 8:21Speaker 1: got down to six and a half, down to six,
- 8:23Speaker 1: now five and a half against the Chargers. So I
- 8:25Speaker 1: had a bunch of guys talking about they loved it
- 8:27Speaker 1: at six and a half and then we had to
- 8:29Speaker 1: take that one. So again I'm okay with the number
- 8:31Speaker 1: rides up at you can go back up the six
- 8:33Speaker 1: and a half. We would still take in a contest
- 8:34Speaker 1: at six and a half or five and a half,
- 8:35Speaker 1: if that's what it is. But to me, the six
- 8:37Speaker 1: and a half is a key number. We talked a
- 8:39Speaker 1: little time now about the extra points. Um, I love
- 8:42Speaker 1: that number. The last one we weren't again, we weren't
- 8:45Speaker 1: on the Cowboys. A bunch of pros I talked to
- 8:48Speaker 1: love the Cowboys in this match up against Detroit. Yeah,
- 8:52Speaker 1: which was interesting because again I wouldn't. I wasn't gonna
- 8:54Speaker 1: say I was gonna make a huge day and on it.
- 8:55Speaker 1: But to me, if you're getting seven and a half
- 8:57Speaker 1: seven on Detroit, it felt like kind of a no
- 8:59Speaker 1: brain or play. I think their view of it is,
- 9:02Speaker 1: do you really trust a Troit team that's still not
- 9:04Speaker 1: fully healthy yet they still might not have swift back,
- 9:06Speaker 1: they still might have how dj tark back again, that's
- 9:09Speaker 1: I guess a big deal to them, where I don't know.
- 9:12Speaker 1: I just thought it was a big deal Docks coming
- 9:14Speaker 1: back off a hand hand injury. Um, I feel like
- 9:17Speaker 1: you rushed back. I feel like we were getting good points.
- 9:19Speaker 1: So they I don't know if I'm gonna bet it,
- 9:21Speaker 1: but they might have scared me off and letting me in.
- 9:23Speaker 1: Jeff put the seven and a half in or seven
- 9:25Speaker 1: in with Detroit. But I just thought that was interesting.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Stand they think the Cowboys are really that good, Like
- 9:31Speaker 1: they put them in the top three, top four team
- 9:33Speaker 1: right now in the NFC, where they have a view
- 9:35Speaker 1: on Detroit's at bottom two team right now in the NFC.
- 9:38Speaker 1: So again, just difference of opinions. All right, Well, we're
- 9:41Speaker 1: gonna get to that. Because as I was preparing for
- 9:44Speaker 1: the show this morning, UM, I added one team to
- 9:51Speaker 1: the conversation that I wanted to very specific on and
- 9:54Speaker 1: it was Detroit. Well, I'm not to hear it out
- 9:57Speaker 1: because I was with you, I was on Detroit. I
- 9:59Speaker 1: just felt like, again, if I get enough calls about
- 10:01Speaker 1: one team, I tend to listen, Right. I just marked
- 10:03Speaker 1: it down as like, okay, five different groups I know
- 10:06Speaker 1: for sure taking position on the Cowboys. Only one other
- 10:08Speaker 1: pro I talked to took a position on Detroit. Well,
- 10:11Speaker 1: we're gonna get to that one. I'll put it at
- 10:14Speaker 1: the end. Um, we still owe people a big balls
- 10:17Speaker 1: better the week. Who knows, maybe it ends up being
- 10:20Speaker 1: the Lions. I think it's becoming an interesting game. Let's
- 10:26Speaker 1: start from the top of our list. Uh, Jags minus
- 10:30Speaker 1: three against the Giants. I still love this side. And
- 10:37Speaker 1: I was listening to Stucky and Chris Raban on the
- 10:39Speaker 1: Action Network NFL podcast this morning. Stucky was making the
- 10:43Speaker 1: case for the Jags their rush defense is third in
- 10:50Speaker 1: the league. I think for d v o a you know,
- 10:52Speaker 1: fancy way of saying advanced stats, they're really good at
- 10:55Speaker 1: defending the run. The Giants their best offensive weapon is
- 11:00Speaker 1: running the ball. But then he made something really a
- 11:02Speaker 1: really good point. The Giants keep winning games on luck
- 11:07Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. And we've talked about the luck
- 11:09Speaker 1: rankings on this show, right the rankings that we put
- 11:13Speaker 1: out that quantify how lucky teams have been this year.
- 11:17Speaker 1: No team has been luckier than the Giants, Cordin or Math,
- 11:21Speaker 1: no team. So I've got a team in the Jacks
- 11:23Speaker 1: who had they kind of lost this past weekend that
- 11:27Speaker 1: literally almost never happens. No one had never had as
- 11:29Speaker 1: good a game as Trevor Lawrence had has and lost
- 11:32Speaker 1: the game, like statistically, he had the best game ever
- 11:36Speaker 1: for a losing quarterback. Um and the Giants keep winning
- 11:42Speaker 1: by luck. I know we've talked about the Jacks being
- 11:46Speaker 1: a team that we might be biased in favor of
- 11:49Speaker 1: and that could be clouding our judgment, but I don't
- 11:52Speaker 1: think it is here. Yeah, again, the tough thing argument
- 11:56Speaker 1: with the Giants is there are five and one on
- 11:58Speaker 1: one possession games. It's year like they were winning the
- 12:01Speaker 1: close games, and I'm with you, that's luck. Well I
- 12:05Speaker 1: just talked to it. A lot of that does go
- 12:06Speaker 1: into coaching and believe in. It's like, again, I don't
- 12:09Speaker 1: get what's happening, but yeah, to me, the Jaguar, as
- 12:12Speaker 1: soon as that number opened, it was a no brainer.
- 12:14Speaker 1: And then all the trends and number start pouring in
- 12:16Speaker 1: and makes you pause, But it doesn't change my position.
- 12:19Speaker 1: But yeah, like that, I think someone was saying it
- 12:22Speaker 1: was what two and fourteen. The Jaguars are um playing
- 12:26Speaker 1: against NFC teams their last sixteen, So it's like, I
- 12:31Speaker 1: think I put too much in a dug change in
- 12:33Speaker 1: the culture in one year where it looks like it's
- 12:35Speaker 1: gonna take a little while here, like a culture that
- 12:37Speaker 1: is just just loses. I mean, yeah, and that Blake
- 12:40Speaker 1: Bortles year, that was a special year. Don't we all
- 12:44Speaker 1: saw through that? Right? That was just a kind of
- 12:46Speaker 1: a flukey year or the Jaguars made it always this
- 12:48Speaker 1: NFC Championship game. They've done nothing but go backwards since then. So, Um,
- 12:53Speaker 1: Jaguars team as a pro, ME and Chat are gonna
- 12:56Speaker 1: bet it. We end up talking about and putting in
- 12:58Speaker 1: the competition. But it's a bizarre line, like the books
- 13:02Speaker 1: are getting money on the Giants and they're keeping it
- 13:05Speaker 1: at three, and people are thinking they're getting a good,
- 13:08Speaker 1: good number on a five and one team against what
- 13:10Speaker 1: Jad just talked about, a bad team and the Jaguars.
- 13:12Speaker 1: But again, this is a spa where I have to
- 13:15Speaker 1: trust the numbers and take the Jaguars. But it's just
- 13:18Speaker 1: like man, me and Chat are not gonna be surprised
- 13:20Speaker 1: only lose, just because as much as you want to
- 13:23Speaker 1: say how lucky the Giants are, the Jaguars are equally
- 13:26Speaker 1: unlucky this season. Just it's just two teams on the
- 13:28Speaker 1: opposite side. So yes, I'm with you, it should flip
- 13:31Speaker 1: more than do and the numbers back it up. But
- 13:34Speaker 1: I bet it too, and I just felt sick to
- 13:36Speaker 1: my stomach doing it. Um. Something pointed out to me
- 13:39Speaker 1: is again we can't do this for the contest, obviously,
- 13:43Speaker 1: but Jaguars first half, that's where the Giants have struggled.
- 13:46Speaker 1: They've not been well done well in the first half,
- 13:48Speaker 1: but the second half is when they keep it close.
- 13:50Speaker 1: And I've won these games. So unlike me and Chat,
- 13:52Speaker 1: we don't have that choice. You could just go Jaguars
- 13:55Speaker 1: first half and if you want to take a position
- 13:56Speaker 1: and iven take full game with the Jaguars, because again,
- 13:59Speaker 1: they played really well these first half. He's got the
- 14:01Speaker 1: Jaguars team. But to me, if minus three Chat, if
- 14:04Speaker 1: it's in our contest at that or minus two and
- 14:06Speaker 1: a half, I would take it. But I feel like
- 14:08Speaker 1: you agree at minus three and a half, maybe we'll pause. Yeah,
- 14:11Speaker 1: I don't think three and a half. I want to
- 14:13Speaker 1: call you out on one thing that, Mitchell, I feel
- 14:15Speaker 1: like we need to get. We need to get like
- 14:17Speaker 1: a penalty, flag drop or something. I'm putting the Kai
- 14:23Speaker 1: bosh on bullshit. Small sample size, historical trends that mean nothing.
- 14:33Speaker 1: I don't think and I've heard this going around and
- 14:35Speaker 1: it's so stupid. I don't think the Jags being two
- 14:39Speaker 1: and fourteen against NFC teams the last whatever number of
- 14:42Speaker 1: years means anything. It's a small sample size, different teams,
- 14:48Speaker 1: different coaches. The Jags are historically bad against everybody, So
- 14:52Speaker 1: you can't take anything into account when it comes to
- 14:56Speaker 1: a sample size that involves the Jags or a trend
- 15:00Speaker 1: that is sixteen games over god knows how many years
- 15:06Speaker 1: we're dropping the flag. It's like those new commercials where
- 15:09Speaker 1: you throw the replay in there. That's when we're gonna
- 15:12Speaker 1: look at we'll regret saying that. Um, they are one
- 15:16Speaker 1: and three on the road this year, so again, it
- 15:18Speaker 1: is an old trend, but there's some there's some merit
- 15:21Speaker 1: to it with this team just hasn't won And like again,
- 15:25Speaker 1: I'm with you, chat, I'm waiting from the turn that corner,
- 15:27Speaker 1: but you are what your record says. You are right,
- 15:29Speaker 1: like they just they haven't won games to this point. Um,
- 15:32Speaker 1: I hope I'm wrong. I'm betting on the Jaguars, so
- 15:34Speaker 1: I hope that trend is bullshit. So the other game,
- 15:37Speaker 1: I want to get to. Uh, Washington plus five and
- 15:41Speaker 1: a half. We talked about this, this was your son
- 15:44Speaker 1: and says Uh when we recorded, I immediately bet it.
- 15:49Speaker 1: I went into the action app. I clicked on Washington
- 15:55Speaker 1: plus five and a half and then I used quick
- 15:59Speaker 1: Slip technolo aology. I clicked on fan duel from the
- 16:03Speaker 1: Action app. It immediately took me to a bet slip
- 16:07Speaker 1: in FanDuel. I didn't have to go to FanDuel app,
- 16:10Speaker 1: open it search for NFL games. Finding that I wanted
- 16:14Speaker 1: to make immediately took me there. I could put in
- 16:16Speaker 1: the amount of money I want to put in make
- 16:17Speaker 1: the bet. While you were talking about the Washington commanders.
- 16:21Speaker 1: I made that whole bet. It took me about fifteen seconds.
- 16:24Speaker 1: If you're in a legal state and you are not
- 16:26Speaker 1: using quick slip with Action Network and FanDuel, you are
- 16:31Speaker 1: in sane. It is the best way to bet. It
- 16:34Speaker 1: is so smooth, seamless technology, auto magical. Here's what I
- 16:41Speaker 1: will say, that was an unprompted shameless plug. By the way,
- 16:45Speaker 1: I feel like you've got in Washington and Green Bay
- 16:50Speaker 1: to mediocre to bad teams, to mediocre to bad defenses.
- 16:54Speaker 1: The one thing Washington does well as pressured the quarterback
- 16:57Speaker 1: without blitzing. That bothers Aaron Rodgers. He's significantly worse in
- 17:01Speaker 1: that situation on other side of the ball. No more.
- 17:04Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, Taylor Heineke uh similar QBR for his career,
- 17:09Speaker 1: similar yards per a tempt for his career, better completion percentage,
- 17:13Speaker 1: for his career and he's more mobile. So even at
- 17:16Speaker 1: four and a half, which this number has moved to,
- 17:18Speaker 1: we might get that in the contest. I'm still playing
- 17:20Speaker 1: in Washington. Yeah, and to me again, we're playing a
- 17:24Speaker 1: common numbers game here of how much better is Carson
- 17:28Speaker 1: really rated than Heineke. I feel like Chad is nail
- 17:30Speaker 1: on the head. It's like the books hung a high
- 17:33Speaker 1: number because they expected the public come in on green Bay.
- 17:36Speaker 1: The public did right, it would state at five and
- 17:38Speaker 1: a half, and all of sten, all that pro money
- 17:40Speaker 1: just poured in the last twenty four hours, and it's like, yeah,
- 17:43Speaker 1: should be down to four and a half, should be
- 17:44Speaker 1: down to four, would not be shocked again as he
- 17:46Speaker 1: had down to three and a half by kickoff. It's
- 17:48Speaker 1: just I feel like in held it, it's two teams
- 17:51Speaker 1: that aren't that different. Um. The biggest difference is it's
- 17:54Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. It's like, if you're betting green Bay, you're
- 17:57Speaker 1: literally betting Aaron Rodgers to bounce back this position. But
- 18:01Speaker 1: it's like bounced back and do what like blowout this
- 18:04Speaker 1: Washington team. It's really hard to blow dominate teams. And
- 18:09Speaker 1: I look at a washingtoneam that they do really well
- 18:11Speaker 1: run the ball. Like again, Robinson looked really good to
- 18:14Speaker 1: me last week. Um, I have to take Washington like
- 18:17Speaker 1: it was just a no brainer as soon as you
- 18:19Speaker 1: saw the way the Jets beat Green Bay, right, they
- 18:22Speaker 1: didn't beat it with Zach Wilson. They beat it on
- 18:24Speaker 1: the ground. Heineken Zach Wilson again, not that different if
- 18:27Speaker 1: you grade them out like I look at my grades
- 18:29Speaker 1: are not that far off. Heineke's biggest weakness is the
- 18:32Speaker 1: stupid turnovers, if you can limit that. Chat, I love this.
- 18:35Speaker 1: I love this matchup so much. Again, people already probably
- 18:38Speaker 1: listened to last week new We're gonna have this to
- 18:39Speaker 1: my money line around Robin. Crazy to think they're gonna
- 18:42Speaker 1: have a three Gays, a three game slide and they're
- 18:45Speaker 1: gonna be losing to the Giants, the Jets and Washington.
- 18:49Speaker 1: But that's how football goes, right, Chat Like it comes
- 18:51Speaker 1: at you fast. These teams that were really good for
- 18:53Speaker 1: a couple of years, they fall off this. This just
- 18:56Speaker 1: looks like a down here for Green Bay. Again. I
- 18:58Speaker 1: can't believe they have treated for a while receiver. But
- 19:01Speaker 1: Brandad Cole might be out now. Who who is he
- 19:03Speaker 1: going to on third down with this team right now
- 19:07Speaker 1: in Green Bay. So to me, it's a bad spot
- 19:09Speaker 1: for Rodgers. I would bet it down to three and
- 19:11Speaker 1: a half. The fact you can still get four and
- 19:13Speaker 1: a half, I'd still grab it now. But yeah, Washington,
- 19:17Speaker 1: as soon as the game open, I knew we were
- 19:18Speaker 1: gonna be on it. Um. The fact that we got
- 19:20Speaker 1: the best of the number, that's always a good feeling. Yeah, No,
- 19:22Speaker 1: it's great, It's totally great. This is one of those
- 19:25Speaker 1: things where we talked about betting ugly all the time. Washington.
- 19:31Speaker 1: You're betting on a team whose ownership is in disarray. Yeah,
- 19:37Speaker 1: that hasn't performed. Well, that's starting a backup quarterback against
- 19:42Speaker 1: the two time defending NFL m v P and one
- 19:46Speaker 1: of the teams considered to be the favorites to win
- 19:48Speaker 1: the conference. And it's a no brainer, total, no brainer.
- 19:54Speaker 1: This is a great way to go to go against
- 19:57Speaker 1: public perception. Um. All right, well, we know we're gonna
- 20:02Speaker 1: be on Washington and the contest the other game, Houston
- 20:06Speaker 1: plus seven. It's another one. We're like two teams similarly
- 20:12Speaker 1: ranked offensively and defensively. Uh, the Raiders are seven point
- 20:19Speaker 1: favorites at home. The tickets on the Raiders, the money
- 20:25Speaker 1: on the Texans just based on that you play the Texans.
- 20:28Speaker 1: But this number is so big. I cannot figure out
- 20:30Speaker 1: why this number is so big. Yeah, no, again, we
- 20:33Speaker 1: might be stepping. At some pointed out to me that I,
- 20:35Speaker 1: me and you were on all three of the dogs
- 20:37Speaker 1: for the late games. Me and I don't even think
- 20:39Speaker 1: that way. Honestly, we're just picking games. I didn't even
- 20:41Speaker 1: realize that until yeah, I hear it, Like, yeah, I'm
- 20:45Speaker 1: sure specifically a favorite is gonna win. Me and I
- 20:47Speaker 1: don't bet that way, Like I'm not only gonna pick
- 20:49Speaker 1: a dog or just pick a favorite just to have
- 20:51Speaker 1: one in there. Um, I'm with you, Houston. That feels
- 20:55Speaker 1: like a good number to me at seven scary a
- 20:58Speaker 1: little bit because exactly what you just it feels like
- 21:00Speaker 1: the Jets last week. I'm trying not to get scared
- 21:02Speaker 1: off the number and just trust that it's a good number.
- 21:04Speaker 1: Where it's like, in what world's in Green Bay? Have
- 21:06Speaker 1: may be catching seven and a half against the Jets.
- 21:09Speaker 1: Same thing here? And what world is Vegas seven points
- 21:11Speaker 1: better than Houston? Anyone? Yeah, I mean, they just haven't
- 21:15Speaker 1: shown it to this point, so Houston just plays games
- 21:19Speaker 1: close and they let teams back in it. I just again,
- 21:22Speaker 1: I'm with you, chat. I'm hoping this is seven and
- 21:23Speaker 1: a half in our contest because that would be a
- 21:25Speaker 1: great number for this But um, at seven, it's it's
- 21:28Speaker 1: still a good strong play for me. I don't think
- 21:29Speaker 1: we're getting seven and a half. I haven't seen it
- 21:31Speaker 1: go to seven and a half anywhere, so I think
- 21:34Speaker 1: we'd be pretty lucky if it got there was seven,
- 21:36Speaker 1: halving a bunch off shores, but that's fair. I haven't
- 21:39Speaker 1: seen a seven and a half in America in two days.
- 21:42Speaker 1: All right, Um, let's talk about the forty Niners and
- 21:46Speaker 1: the Chiefs a little bit more. Do we like it
- 21:51Speaker 1: enough if the contest line is two and a half
- 21:54Speaker 1: to still bid the forty Niners? Yeah, I feel like
- 21:59Speaker 1: we kind of we kind of half because we're taking
- 22:00Speaker 1: such a strong position on it. Um again, it's gonna
- 22:03Speaker 1: end up being one of my biggest bets of the week.
- 22:05Speaker 1: And it's like, try not to put so much weight
- 22:08Speaker 1: into three because it's it's rare where games laying on
- 22:10Speaker 1: three like they used to. That used to be such
- 22:12Speaker 1: a key number. Now with the extra points, teams going
- 22:15Speaker 1: for two down fourteen everything like that. It just changes
- 22:18Speaker 1: the math and the rhythm to two and a half
- 22:21Speaker 1: to three. So yeah, if you liked it, if you had, yeah,
- 22:24Speaker 1: me and Cha I would love to make us our
- 22:25Speaker 1: big balls, but we already made this our bet um
- 22:28Speaker 1: our foxhold bet. So to me, it's it's gonna be
- 22:32Speaker 1: the hardest bet you have to make. You kind of
- 22:34Speaker 1: have to trust me and chat and just the numbers.
- 22:37Speaker 1: This is a pro bet you make lifetime. You're gonna
- 22:40Speaker 1: win this bet. And again that's a big deal. So
- 22:44Speaker 1: not only do the numbers back it up where you
- 22:46Speaker 1: have a good run scheme for this UM four Niners
- 22:49Speaker 1: team against a Chiefs team that early on I thought
- 22:52Speaker 1: they might have fixed the running back woes. And then
- 22:54Speaker 1: what did we see. We saw them play against teams
- 22:57Speaker 1: that can move the ball and run the ball and
- 22:58Speaker 1: they absolutely dominated them. That's what the Forts love to do.
- 23:02Speaker 1: So I'm just going to trust that that's gonna be
- 23:05Speaker 1: a close, back and forth game and that again the
- 23:08Speaker 1: forty Niners can pull this one out. Because as much
- 23:11Speaker 1: I'd love to tell you to take the Chiefs, the
- 23:13Speaker 1: numbers back it up. It's like this game is closer
- 23:14Speaker 1: to a pick than it should be at plus three.
- 23:17Speaker 1: That what it was. So that's our reason. I knew
- 23:19Speaker 1: right away to give it out and that we were
- 23:20Speaker 1: gonna be on it was. In fact, everyone's gonna bet it.
- 23:23Speaker 1: I texted Chat, I really didn't think it was going
- 23:24Speaker 1: up the plus three and a half and it just
- 23:26Speaker 1: went down. So again, that makes me feel good knowing
- 23:28Speaker 1: we're with the pros as well. Uh, those are the
- 23:32Speaker 1: four games that we felt strongest about. Jags minus three,
- 23:36Speaker 1: Washington plus five and a half even at four and
- 23:39Speaker 1: a half, Houston plus seven plus three. Other games on
- 23:44Speaker 1: the list, one of them mentioned in sharp calls. UH
- 23:47Speaker 1: plus six in a Seattle plus six and a half
- 23:50Speaker 1: now down to five and a half. I'm not surprised
- 23:52Speaker 1: this this line has moved. Yeah, the Chargers roster, everyone
- 23:57Speaker 1: loves it. Everyone thought they'd be a contender. Everyone thought
- 24:00Speaker 1: this was the year they could take over the a
- 24:02Speaker 1: f C West. Keenan Allen hasn't played since Week one.
- 24:06Speaker 1: We don't know what's going on with Bosa. I mean,
- 24:08Speaker 1: Boss is not gonna be playing, Rashawn Slater not gonna
- 24:11Speaker 1: be playing. I think they struggled mightily last week against
- 24:15Speaker 1: the Broncos. They probably should have lost that game. I
- 24:17Speaker 1: think that's having a little bit to do with it.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Plus the fact that Gino Smith. Gino Smith looks so
- 24:22Speaker 1: good when he steps up in the pocket and throws
- 24:25Speaker 1: and throws deep and and throws over the coverage. And
- 24:28Speaker 1: I'm a huge, huge Kenneth Walker fan, huge Kenneth Walker.
- 24:33Speaker 1: I don't know why, but last year ended up seeing
- 24:35Speaker 1: a lot of Michigan State football games. I loved this
- 24:39Speaker 1: guy at Michigan State. And he's been he's carrying people.
- 24:43Speaker 1: He either carrying people or people can't flat out tackle
- 24:46Speaker 1: him like he's just he's jitterbugging, you know. Amazing player.
- 24:51Speaker 1: Just a bazaar again in Seattle. Coming into the season,
- 24:54Speaker 1: I just thought they'd be trying to make a position
- 24:57Speaker 1: to get a top pick. Now they are going to
- 24:59Speaker 1: be in position I the top pick, but that pick
- 25:00Speaker 1: is gonna be the Broncost pick. So again, life comes
- 25:03Speaker 1: at you fast the NFL. Who knows it's gonna happen
- 25:05Speaker 1: right early one third way through the season. But the
- 25:08Speaker 1: Genos Smith stuff. It's nothing against Gina. I love the kid.
- 25:12Speaker 1: W boy, it was just every time he would get
- 25:16Speaker 1: these opportunities to play. He would literally light it up
- 25:20Speaker 1: and look great for a game or two, and then
- 25:21Speaker 1: he would just fall off a cliff and like a
- 25:23Speaker 1: team would get a read on the defense, we get
- 25:24Speaker 1: a read on them, and then he'd fall off again.
- 25:27Speaker 1: He didn't light the world on fire last week against
- 25:29Speaker 1: the Cardinals, but he kept his team in a position
- 25:31Speaker 1: to win, and that's what you're looking for with these quarterbacks.
- 25:33Speaker 1: So if you can have those kind of games and
- 25:35Speaker 1: down games and they're rely on the defense to lead
- 25:37Speaker 1: him and just not turn the ball over, that's huge
- 25:40Speaker 1: for Gina. So in this matchup, loved it at six
- 25:43Speaker 1: and a half because what we talked about last show,
- 25:45Speaker 1: it's like, again the Chargers, we know they have the talent,
- 25:49Speaker 1: we just don't think they have a coaching. They just
- 25:51Speaker 1: simply do not like the offensive scheme they're running, the
- 25:54Speaker 1: position they're putting Herbert in the fact that he can't
- 25:56Speaker 1: really get protection at some points where it's like bizarre
- 25:59Speaker 1: that and skiing that up either, it's like just keep
- 26:02Speaker 1: your running back instead of always running an eckler out. Um,
- 26:06Speaker 1: I don't know the guy love Seattle. It just sucks
- 26:09Speaker 1: down to five and a half, Like, yeah, I'll still
- 26:11Speaker 1: take that number. But we had such a nice number
- 26:13Speaker 1: at six and a half. I am shocked, but again,
- 26:16Speaker 1: it makes me feel better knowing that the professionals have
- 26:18Speaker 1: coming so heavy on this number because that's a big,
- 26:20Speaker 1: key number, like moving through the six. That's a big deal.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Books don't want to do that either, because now you
- 26:25Speaker 1: talk about the time you just simply tease down the
- 26:28Speaker 1: Chargers to win. They just need to win out right
- 26:29Speaker 1: for you. So interesting movement. If me and you to
- 26:32Speaker 1: have it at six and a half of our contest,
- 26:34Speaker 1: I just don't know how. I don't play it on
- 26:35Speaker 1: Sunday like that's just such a good number. Much be
- 26:38Speaker 1: back and forth? Yeah, what about the Falcons plus six?
- 26:41Speaker 1: I feel like this is this is the game that
- 26:45Speaker 1: is a line, a line of demarcation. We talked about value,
- 26:48Speaker 1: We talked about getting out of the peak, getting out
- 26:51Speaker 1: of the peak of the market. It feels too big
- 26:53Speaker 1: for me to still be playing Cincinnati's a six point favorite.
- 26:58Speaker 1: But are we pressing our Okay, I think it takes bass.
- 27:02Speaker 1: We've been a six and oh a team a t
- 27:04Speaker 1: s are you saying right now? The Atlanta Falcons are
- 27:08Speaker 1: big balls better the week big balls better the week
- 27:15Speaker 1: because I feel like they wants to do it. They're
- 27:16Speaker 1: like you, They're just like are we are? We just
- 27:18Speaker 1: walking right into it, Like this team, we should be
- 27:20Speaker 1: selling on them. I think they're still in the rat
- 27:22Speaker 1: in like they really are in this division. They're tied
- 27:25Speaker 1: for right now in their division. They're still plus seven
- 27:27Speaker 1: dred most books to win the NFC South. This line,
- 27:32Speaker 1: I get it. It was plus ten at one point.
- 27:34Speaker 1: It brought it way down to plus seven, then they
- 27:36Speaker 1: brought it down a six and a half, and now
- 27:37Speaker 1: they're getting action on both sides. I think that's what
- 27:40Speaker 1: we're talking. People are just skeptical of this Atlanta team.
- 27:43Speaker 1: I'm looking at the other side of Cincinnati. They've lost
- 27:45Speaker 1: two of their big de tackles up front. That's gotta
- 27:48Speaker 1: be a big deal to this team stopping the run.
- 27:50Speaker 1: We saw that week the Saints were able to move
- 27:52Speaker 1: a ball against them without their top weapons. Atlanta is
- 27:56Speaker 1: healthy right now. Pitts is back one that's been playing
- 27:58Speaker 1: for them, like Mariota's got no in again. I know
- 28:01Speaker 1: it was gonna hurt them that have no Cordel Patterson.
- 28:04Speaker 1: It looks like it doesn't matter. They've been averaging a
- 28:05Speaker 1: hundred fifty yards per per game rushing since he's been out.
- 28:08Speaker 1: So I'm with you, chat, We're gonna get caught eventually.
- 28:13Speaker 1: I just don't think it's this week again. You're playing
- 28:15Speaker 1: the matchups to sixty team that just does not blow
- 28:17Speaker 1: teams out that play close. They have their own issues, right,
- 28:20Speaker 1: and keep talking about that Jamaar Chase. He was the
- 28:23Speaker 1: difference in that game last week. Guess what Atlanta has.
- 28:26Speaker 1: They have a shutdown corner that should be able to
- 28:27Speaker 1: take him away. So there's a bunch of different little
- 28:29Speaker 1: matchups I like for Atlanta. But yeah, six and a
- 28:32Speaker 1: half and again another big dog that we liked this week.
- 28:37Speaker 1: I love it, I man, I mean, I feel like
- 28:41Speaker 1: I'm ready to Sometimes you get a feel on teams
- 28:45Speaker 1: and how the market is responding, and I don't think
- 28:48Speaker 1: the value has been accurately portrayed in any of the
- 28:53Speaker 1: Falcons lines yet. And it's mainly because Mary hasn't hurt us,
- 28:57Speaker 1: like if he catches us in this game, the appisode
- 28:59Speaker 1: lays a complete dump. Honestly, people, that does happen, Like
- 29:03Speaker 1: this guy isn't the top five quarterback of football, but
- 29:07Speaker 1: Arthur is really doing this offense where it's not predicated
- 29:09Speaker 1: on him. Like when they need to make these big
- 29:11Speaker 1: third down players, he does it, but they aren't asking
- 29:13Speaker 1: it that much because they can run the ball. There's
- 29:15Speaker 1: so many third and short options. Again, it's just a
- 29:19Speaker 1: beautiful thing watching it go. A coach coming and scheming
- 29:21Speaker 1: offense around the players and the team. He doesn't care
- 29:23Speaker 1: about his own scheme. He schemed around the offense on
- 29:25Speaker 1: the team. That's what you're seeing in this Atlanta team.
- 29:28Speaker 1: All right, Uh, I do want to talk about the Lions. Um,
- 29:31Speaker 1: there's two more games. I want to talk about. The
- 29:34Speaker 1: Bears went from plus eight two plus seven and a half. Um,
- 29:43Speaker 1: I can't believe. Let me just say this, we like
- 29:45Speaker 1: the Bears of plus eight. I don't think we're putting
- 29:47Speaker 1: the Bears of plus eight in our contest. The other day,
- 29:50Speaker 1: someone texted to me or you know, tag me on
- 29:55Speaker 1: Twitter and showed how Bill Belichick could basically gone on
- 30:01Speaker 1: for eight minutes about how good the Bears are. That's
- 30:05Speaker 1: like the Bears that's terrible. That just means it really
- 30:09Speaker 1: sees how bad they truly are, because he never does that.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Bill No. So, as a Bears fan, I know that
- 30:16Speaker 1: we're kind of funny, you know, but we're on the
- 30:18Speaker 1: Bears plus eight. You might get lucky. Mac Jones might
- 30:21Speaker 1: come back for you. Yeah, you know, it's all they
- 30:23Speaker 1: cleared him. I don't. I don't know that would happen.
- 30:26Speaker 1: I feel like this is Baby's Appy's team until Baby's Appy,
- 30:29Speaker 1: you know, can't do it anymore. Bailey Zappy unctually has
- 30:35Speaker 1: like an absolute meltdown of the game. You gotta gotta
- 30:37Speaker 1: le him keep playing exactly Lions plus seven. I guess
- 30:46Speaker 1: my feeling on this is the lines keep games close
- 30:50Speaker 1: if they're fully healthy, especially at mon Ross st. Brown,
- 30:53Speaker 1: who I expect to be fully healthy in this game.
- 30:56Speaker 1: The Cowboys offensive line is dreadful. I don't know that
- 31:00Speaker 1: it's that much of an upgrade getting Dak Prescott back
- 31:04Speaker 1: right now. I'm not saying I think Cooper Rush should
- 31:07Speaker 1: be replacing Dak Prescott, but coming back after a long
- 31:10Speaker 1: laugh with the thumb injury and a bad offensive line,
- 31:15Speaker 1: I just feel like this is a backdoor game. Yeah again,
- 31:19Speaker 1: I said we're gonna take it, just don't be surprised
- 31:21Speaker 1: when we're dead wrong where It's like, I get it,
- 31:23Speaker 1: these pros, they're not gonna get everything right. But it
- 31:26Speaker 1: was just interesting they're all taking that position where it
- 31:29Speaker 1: just made me rethink where it's like I looked at
- 31:30Speaker 1: this is another easy bet, like the same way I've
- 31:32Speaker 1: kind of felt the Landing where it's like you just
- 31:35Speaker 1: have an inflated line based on public perception. Where again
- 31:38Speaker 1: I wouldn't be I no surprise of cowboys. Somehow defense
- 31:41Speaker 1: completely shuts down Detroit like the Patriots did and they
- 31:44Speaker 1: get no points. But if Swift does come back, I mean,
- 31:48Speaker 1: we have a great number on a Detroit team that
- 31:50Speaker 1: we'll be able to move the ball. Like again, that
- 31:52Speaker 1: guy is such a difference maker. So um to me,
- 31:55Speaker 1: I don't know if we're having the contest, but Swift
- 31:57Speaker 1: is back on Sunday and we're catching seven a half,
- 32:00Speaker 1: we might end up switch it in because that's just
- 32:02Speaker 1: a good number on a team that, again their predicated
- 32:04Speaker 1: on their talented players around them. Um, we've seen golf
- 32:07Speaker 1: do well to Indoors, right, We've seen the difference this year.
- 32:10Speaker 1: Like him, Indoors, they're always in these games, especially at
- 32:13Speaker 1: this big of a number. They tend to hang in
- 32:14Speaker 1: these games. I just the same thing I said to
- 32:18Speaker 1: the other pros. I talked to balls, the balls on
- 32:21Speaker 1: you to be bet and Deck coming off an injury,
- 32:23Speaker 1: a hand injury coming in and this is his first
- 32:25Speaker 1: game back. Um again feels like he's rushing back. He
- 32:28Speaker 1: should just be should he should just waited till after
- 32:30Speaker 1: their bye week. But again he just he saw another
- 32:32Speaker 1: man exceeding in his job. He just wanted it back.
- 32:35Speaker 1: So I'm with each I think we're getting a good number.
- 32:38Speaker 1: It's just it's just like last week. They're certain games.
- 32:40Speaker 1: I got a pause on UM this week. The two
- 32:43Speaker 1: this this is one of the Another one is the
- 32:45Speaker 1: Tennessee Colts game. Um, I just knew a new Pros
- 32:48Speaker 1: are gonna be on Tennessee. But I knew real big
- 32:52Speaker 1: money was gonna come in the Colts. And what happened
- 32:54Speaker 1: this week? Big money came in the Colts. But it's
- 32:56Speaker 1: been kind of split. Um. Another game that I don't
- 32:59Speaker 1: think we're end up having in the contest, but just
- 33:01Speaker 1: a result I can't wait to see because it kind
- 33:03Speaker 1: of feels like that's the fight for the division right there.
- 33:05Speaker 1: The cold Tennessee game. I don't know if you've had
- 33:07Speaker 1: opinion on that one, Chad, but I didn't really know
- 33:10Speaker 1: what to do with it on Tuesday, because at first glance,
- 33:12Speaker 1: I was all in on Tennessee. Um, still kind of
- 33:15Speaker 1: lost in the weeds here on what to do with
- 33:17Speaker 1: this game. Yeah, I mean, I think you played Tennessee
- 33:19Speaker 1: because it's a divisional matchup and they're less than a
- 33:23Speaker 1: less than a field goal favorite at home. But I
- 33:26Speaker 1: got coming off and coming off of by yeah, I got.
- 33:29Speaker 1: I got no time for this game. I think Mike
- 33:30Speaker 1: Rabel is a better coach than Frank Raich. I don't
- 33:32Speaker 1: know what's happening with Jonathan Taylor. The Colts defense has
- 33:35Speaker 1: been pretty good. Um, I don't even want this game
- 33:39Speaker 1: to appear on red Zone. We gotta talk Jets. People
- 33:44Speaker 1: want to talk Jets Denver. When we talked to the
- 33:46Speaker 1: shows two and a half or maybe two, and now
- 33:48Speaker 1: I went down to a pick and it's back up
- 33:50Speaker 1: the plus one Denver Broo. Yeah, so we liked the Jets.
- 33:55Speaker 1: As a reminder, we liked the Jet at plus two.
- 33:59Speaker 1: I think I probably still favored the Jets. You know,
- 34:01Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is claiming he has Wolverine blood, and that
- 34:05Speaker 1: doesn't mean he's playing. It just means he has Wolverine Blood.
- 34:08Speaker 1: The Broncos are one of those teams where you talk
- 34:11Speaker 1: about the Giants, right, Let's say the Giants they're getting lucky,
- 34:14Speaker 1: and you can say they have good coaching and that
- 34:16Speaker 1: helps fuel and instill belief, and that helps fuel luck.
- 34:21Speaker 1: I think the Broncos had bad coaching. I think that
- 34:24Speaker 1: if Russell Wilson does play, he doesn't quite know what
- 34:27Speaker 1: to do in that offense. Yet. Um, their defense is outstanding,
- 34:30Speaker 1: and I think Zack Wilson is a terrible quarterback, truly terrible.
- 34:34Speaker 1: And this Jets team is also beating bad teams in
- 34:37Speaker 1: dramatic ways. That is, you know, they beat the Packers,
- 34:40Speaker 1: they beat the Dolphins, although that game was too close. Um,
- 34:44Speaker 1: and they beat the Browns and Jacobe Brossett kind of
- 34:47Speaker 1: blew up and turned back into a pumpy. So I
- 34:51Speaker 1: have qualifiers and liking the Jets, but I think I
- 34:53Speaker 1: still like the Jets here because I think the Broncos
- 34:55Speaker 1: are just so bad. Yeah, and again, the Zack wasn't thing.
- 34:59Speaker 1: I have to wait still, like I always give, I
- 35:01Speaker 1: give guys the benefit of data, give him a couple
- 35:03Speaker 1: of years. Again, rarely doesn't flip, but a few times
- 35:07Speaker 1: it does can be insane. Like Josh Allen, if you
- 35:10Speaker 1: go back and look at his stats through two years,
- 35:11Speaker 1: you you probably would have cut him from your team.
- 35:13Speaker 1: You just look absolutely lost. We've seen how that panned down,
- 35:16Speaker 1: so Zach Wilson, Yeah, it's it's not good right now.
- 35:20Speaker 1: But the beat mean Chad talked about making here was
- 35:22Speaker 1: simply because the Jets defense, this is a good matchup.
- 35:26Speaker 1: We talked about the under as well. It's one of
- 35:28Speaker 1: my favorite under bets. I bet early in the week.
- 35:30Speaker 1: It's down in most books. The thirty eight now down
- 35:32Speaker 1: from thirty and a half, down the thirty nine, thirty
- 35:34Speaker 1: eight and a half now down to thirty eight. I
- 35:36Speaker 1: still think he's gonna play like what you just talked about.
- 35:39Speaker 1: He's a psycho saying he's got wolverine blood, But I
- 35:43Speaker 1: mean he's a competitor, like I thought he should arrest it.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Last week, after he'd gotten surgery on his shoulder, he
- 35:50Speaker 1: went out there and played. He threw thirteen yards in
- 35:52Speaker 1: the second half. I know they're blaming his handstring on
- 35:54Speaker 1: part of that. It feels all mental like it feels
- 35:57Speaker 1: like the guy he's missing. It's there's nothing new with
- 35:59Speaker 1: his body. There wide open in front of him. He's
- 36:01Speaker 1: just not seeing him. Whatever it is. He's just locking
- 36:02Speaker 1: in on people. So it's the public dog of the week.
- 36:06Speaker 1: Like everyone in their grandmas will be bet in the Jets.
- 36:08Speaker 1: The Jets are the hottest team. I mean the Northeast here.
- 36:12Speaker 1: All the New York books, all the Jersey books, all
- 36:14Speaker 1: the PA books as well, they're just gonna be taking
- 36:16Speaker 1: tons and tons of Jets funny, So I know I'm
- 36:19Speaker 1: on the public side here. Maybe I'll just tease them. Now,
- 36:21Speaker 1: you can tease them up to seven. Um, that's a
- 36:24Speaker 1: pretty great number to have against the Broncos. Teams that
- 36:27Speaker 1: kick can't blow teams out, especially a good defense like
- 36:29Speaker 1: the Jets. But we could be stepping in a chab.
- 36:32Speaker 1: I just again, think it comes to Sunday. We're getting
- 36:35Speaker 1: a plus one and a half, plus two and a half,
- 36:36Speaker 1: and we know it's Russ gonna play through an injury.
- 36:39Speaker 1: I feel like we're probably end up having the Jets.
- 36:41Speaker 1: And that's just why I want to bring that game
- 36:42Speaker 1: up before he moved on. Totally got it. By the way,
- 36:45Speaker 1: he didn't have surgery on his shoulder. He had an
- 36:47Speaker 1: injection in his tip off the NBA season With FanDuel

- 39:17Speaker 1: football picks. We will get to that. Give us a
- 39:19Speaker 1: minute first, Simon, you're a head and Scooch Roulette our
- 39:23Speaker 1: head to head battle. You get to go first. When
- 39:27Speaker 1: all hope is lost, all this left is relief. Let's
- 39:32Speaker 1: play Scots Rolette. Oh God, trying not to double dip.
- 39:39Speaker 1: I'm I might have to you this week. You want
- 39:41Speaker 1: Washington so badly, I know you do do. It's just
- 39:45Speaker 1: a really good number. But I'm trying to be good
- 39:47Speaker 1: and not double dip because it stirved me well these
- 39:49Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Give me Seattle. Oh you that's
- 39:54Speaker 1: your eye. That's what I wanted, all right, Seattle. Damn it?
- 39:58Speaker 1: What is it? Is it a five and half? You're
- 40:00Speaker 1: taking it and half? Gosh, darn darn all right. Uh, well,
- 40:06Speaker 1: I don't want to double dipper on Houston and Atlanta.
- 40:09Speaker 1: We've been double dipping, yeah, but I don't want to.
- 40:11Speaker 1: I wanna be you know, Atlanta's out, Washington's out forts
- 40:15Speaker 1: are out. All right, you know what, Here we go,
- 40:18Speaker 1: you know what, I know, We're not going to do
- 40:20Speaker 1: it in the contest. Give me the goddamn lines. Wow,
- 40:26Speaker 1: I'm biting thee Caps survivor. I think it's still Patriots
- 40:32Speaker 1: or Bucks. Yeah, no, an other choices and the fact
- 40:35Speaker 1: that it now it's definitely PJ being the quarterback for Carolina. Again,
- 40:39Speaker 1: look at the Buck schedule. Do the same thing to
- 40:42Speaker 1: the Patriots and ask yourself when you're gonna take them again.
- 40:44Speaker 1: So that's how me, Chad, we've gotten lucky, but a
- 40:47Speaker 1: couple of our pictures, yere, I've done it that way. Um.
- 40:50Speaker 1: Here we are on week seven, still somehow alive. It
- 40:53Speaker 1: feels like an easy week. Those are usually the dangerous ones.
- 40:56Speaker 1: But I can't see Patriots losing at home to this
- 40:59Speaker 1: Bears team, and I just can't see the Bucks dropping
- 41:01Speaker 1: another game like this week has to be hell for
- 41:04Speaker 1: that page that Buccaneers team with Tom Breen at the Holme.
- 41:07Speaker 1: So yeah, like both um up to the fans of
- 41:10Speaker 1: picking shoes, I would say which way I'm leaning the
- 41:14Speaker 1: highest right now would be the Patriots just because their
- 41:16Speaker 1: division so hard. I just don't see us taking them
- 41:19Speaker 1: against the Jets Miami. I've seen that the Bills where
- 41:22Speaker 1: there's other opportunities to take this Bucks team down the road,
- 41:25Speaker 1: So I would say it's more likely we take the
- 41:27Speaker 1: Patriots alright, money line round Robin, I'm gonna say the
- 41:30Speaker 1: teams I think that we're gonna put in it ready,
- 41:33Speaker 1: we're gonna put in realized. People said, we went three
- 41:36Speaker 1: and two lest week, Let's go Falcons. We're gonna put
- 41:38Speaker 1: in there. Seattle Ye, Niners yeah, um, Washington yeah uh?
- 41:48Speaker 1: And then who else? No, there's a bunch of different
- 41:52Speaker 1: avenues we could go here, um like every orifice and
- 41:56Speaker 1: my body. We already said Houston right in, say Houston,
- 42:00Speaker 1: I said, Atlanta, Seattle, Niners, Washington. Houston jumps out just
- 42:03Speaker 1: because again, who's the Vegas to be catching that many points?
- 42:06Speaker 1: Like we have to take the value on that one.
- 42:08Speaker 1: And then just because of injury report and no one
- 42:10Speaker 1: else had doing it, Like I know, no one else
- 42:12Speaker 1: is doing this. Cleveland's money line against a team in
- 42:15Speaker 1: Baltimore that has just melted against so many teams in
- 42:18Speaker 1: this fourth quarter, like it just jumped out. So that's terrible.
- 42:22Speaker 1: Let's put Houston in, all right, he'st Houston over the Browns.
- 42:26Speaker 1: That's fair, right, money line, Ron Robin Atlanta, Seattle, Niners, Washington, Houston. Uh.
- 42:34Speaker 1: Let's give people who are listening live, um a a
- 42:38Speaker 1: last minute Thursday night football pick. I know what you think,
- 42:44Speaker 1: and I gotta tell you it's different than what I
- 42:46Speaker 1: think you like Cardinals tonight. I think I like the Cardinals.
- 42:50Speaker 1: I mean, it can't fault you for it. Um. I
- 42:53Speaker 1: think DeAndre Hopkins is a big deal. I think him
- 42:55Speaker 1: coming back is a really big deal. It changes it
- 42:59Speaker 1: literally else the field. Not literally that was stupid, but
- 43:02Speaker 1: it tilts the field the Cardinals in a way that
- 43:05Speaker 1: just changes the game plan. I like the Cardinals. Short
- 43:09Speaker 1: home dog, I mean short home favorite Thursday night. Uh,
- 43:13Speaker 1: that tends to be to play anyways, It's gonna be
- 43:15Speaker 1: an ugly game. So give me the Cardinals and I'll
- 43:19Speaker 1: just take the better team. List Saints are the better team.
- 43:21Speaker 1: I'll just take them blindly here, and I'm happy to
- 43:23Speaker 1: lose money on it. All the numbers backup Chad. Betting
- 43:26Speaker 1: the favorites, especially short home favorites, has been very profitable
- 43:29Speaker 1: on Thursday nights. Again, just a blindly beat thing. If
- 43:32Speaker 1: you just want to just battle the trends, I think
- 43:34Speaker 1: you're right with Chad here. If you just want to
- 43:36Speaker 1: go based off the numbers, I think the best play
- 43:39Speaker 1: for me will be the first half. I'll just take
- 43:40Speaker 1: the Saints team that should be more compaired. The obviously
- 43:43Speaker 1: have been better than the Cardinals in the first half
- 43:46Speaker 1: and earlier this season. Another sneaky play I like, just
- 43:49Speaker 1: a long shot play Taysom Hill. Um, he might get
- 43:52Speaker 1: a lot of touches at quarterback this week. Just got
- 43:55Speaker 1: done has a back issue, so I see them subbing now.
- 43:57Speaker 1: I read a couple of beat writers talking about him
- 43:59Speaker 1: getting way more touches week. Um, Taysom Hill. Cardinal's run
- 44:02Speaker 1: defense is bad. So at plus one ninety anytime touchdown
- 44:05Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, That to me has value on a guy
- 44:07Speaker 1: that could be the number one QB midway through the
- 44:10Speaker 1: second quarter and Andy don't takes one bad hit, they're
- 44:12Speaker 1: gonna yank them. They said they're not gonna mess around it.
- 44:14Speaker 1: He wants to play, They're gonna let him play. They're
- 44:16Speaker 1: not gonna riscue him injuring himself for the whole season.
- 44:19Speaker 1: So sneaky played for me, be Taysom Hill anytime touchdown. Yeah,
- 44:22Speaker 1: because you can totally predict when a guy is going
- 44:24Speaker 1: to get a bad hit and whether or not it's
- 44:25Speaker 1: gonna be season ending in the game of football. Um,
- 44:29Speaker 1: it's a really good planning there. All right, we've done
- 44:33Speaker 1: it all Simon, We've narrowed down our five. Right now,
- 44:38Speaker 1: if we had to do it today, it would be Jags, Washington,
- 44:42Speaker 1: Houston Niners, and then we'd probably debate Seattle and Atlanta.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Uh the money line around Robin Reminder Atlanta, Seattle, Niners,
- 44:52Speaker 1: Washington Houston, Scoot Roulette. You're on Seattle, I'm on the Lions.
- 44:57Speaker 1: Are big balls better the week get and a plus six.
