Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's Daily Wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's Daily Wager for
- 0:25January 13th, 2024. Nice win.
- 0:29First yesterday, although I know I said they wouldn't have jaw.
- 0:34I was confusing the Hornets with them, the Grizz, and it didn't
- 0:39matter. All right?
- 0:40That that's the great thing about my analytics.
- 0:44Sometimes it just doesn't matter who the other team is.
- 0:46I knew San Antonio was putting it together.
- 0:49They go out there, they wipe people out.
- 0:51So get the win last night. Awesome.
- 0:54Today we're moving into football playoffs, playoffs, games that
- 1:00matter. Winner go home or win and stay
- 1:04home depending on whether or not you're hosting the game or if
- 1:06you're on the road. But anyways, today I'm going to
- 1:11this late game, which you know like four people will watch it
- 1:14because four people own Peacocks.
- 1:17I don't know anybody that owns a Peacock, but apparently you have
- 1:20to have a Peacock to be able to watch this thing.
- 1:22So now my neighbor has AP hand. I don't know if that's going to
- 1:25help me any. We'll see.
- 1:26All right, so we got two explosive offenses, but it's
- 1:31going to be like -30 with the wind chill, maybe not that bad.
- 1:37It's going to be below 0, which from where I'm from isn't good.
- 1:41So I think that that means there's going to be lots of
- 1:44running and the total sitting at 43 1/2.
- 1:48So yes, you have two dynamic offenses, but nobody's going to
- 1:52be watching. Nobody's going to be in the
- 1:53stands. Nobody's going to really care.
- 1:55So what are they going to do? Run the ball?
- 1:58Just get it out of, you know, keep the clock running, Get out.
- 2:01So I'm going to take the under. So we're going under 43 1/2
- 2:05total points between the Chiefs and the Dolphins in today's
- 2:10NFLAFC Wild Card action. See anything better than that?
- 2:15Found it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 2:16to it. And I think a cousin has
- 2:19something for you too. A rare Saturday visit cousin.
- 2:32Yo, Colton Mini, it's Wild card weekend.
- 2:36It's Saturday. We got the first two games
- 2:39coming out. We got games on Saturday,
- 2:41Sunday, Monday, you got it. Just check back with Cousin
- 2:45Vinny and if you want to make some money off this Wild card
- 2:49weekend, you want to go on a wild ride.
- 2:52Cousin Vinny's here to help you out there.
- 2:53All right, so the first day of games here, Cousin Vinny's
- 2:58favorite game of the Wild Card weekend is the first game of the
- 3:01Wild Card weekend, and that is the Houston Texans.
- 3:05The Cinderella story. The home dog, the rookie
- 3:09sensation at quarterback are going up against the Cleveland
- 3:13Browns and they're getting two points at home.
- 3:17What Cause and Vinny likes about this game?
- 3:19Well, 'cause and Vinny loves a home dog.
- 3:22Cause and Vinny loves a Cinderella story.
- 3:24And Cause and Vinny loves back and a high quarterback.
- 3:27Now I know what you're going to say.
- 3:29All the Browns have a great defense and they won when they
- 3:31played the the Texans earlier this season.
- 3:34But in this cousin Benny will tell you two things.
- 3:36One, the one the Texans and Brown squirt off earlier in the
- 3:38season CJ Stroud was not under center.
- 3:41And two, the Browns defense on the road is not the same defense
- 3:45as the Browns at home, the Browns at home lot or #1 in the
- 3:50NFL and points allowed per game on the road.
- 3:53They're 19th in the NFL and points allowed per game, so the
- 3:59advantage of the Brown defense isn't exactly what it would
- 4:03appear on paper. Again, up against the quote #1,
- 4:05defense #2, I'd still can't get over the Joe Flacco thing.
- 4:10I know that's another story to this, another subplot, but I
- 4:13just, you know, Audubon High School's finance.
- 4:16Joe Flacco had a great NFL career.
- 4:18He has won Super Bowls. And you know, I really like the
- 4:21guy who pulled up the training camp in a Volvo, right?
- 4:23I always liked Joe Flacco, but I just don't see it happening
- 4:27here. I think the story ends here
- 4:28today. I think the home dog Houston
- 4:31Texans are going to win out. Right now the Texans are getting
- 4:34two points at home from the Browns, but I like the money
- 4:37line a + 125 a little better than in taking the two points.
- 4:42I say you just grab the carrot there with the money line and
- 4:45you take it to the bank and lock it up.
- 4:48One side note is that Cousin Vinnie unfortunately will not be
- 4:51able to watch the late game between the Dolphins and the
- 4:55Chiefs. I hope it's a good game, but
- 4:57unfortunately I do not own Peacock and or streaming
- 5:01subscription and I am just maxed out on services.
- 5:03So let's hope the NFL learns from this Saturday night match
- 5:07up when they find out that, you know ratings are down because
- 5:11nobody is going to sign up for another screaming service just
- 5:14to watch one game. So that's Cousin Vinnie's
- 5:16thoughts of the day on top of his lock of the day.
- 5:18So until tomorrow, Cousin Vinnie, with your lock of the
- 5:22week. Don't forget to rate, review,
