Latest / Nate's Daily Wager / Nate's NFL Week 16 Wager and Cousin Vinny's Lock of the Week with the Gaffer's Pick of the Pitch 1222
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
- 0:20December 22nd, 2024. And yeah, that that hook it.
- 0:26It doesn't do you much good when when there's that much of a
- 0:29difference. So having that hook when it
- 0:34wasn't 7 or 8 or 6 doesn't really matter much when when the
- 0:39score is, you know, big. So take the L and it's the way
- 0:44it goes, but it's the way it's been.
- 0:47So all right, today we got the football of the professional
- 0:51kind. We got lots of games today.
- 0:55We got Bills by a billion. Of course, taking on the
- 0:58Patriots later, that's a, that's an easy no brainer.
- 1:02The one that I'm going on is who the Bills played last week and
- 1:07who they beat, who they took to the woodshed.
- 1:09We got the lions. They're going in to face the
- 1:12bears. To me, this is a no brainer.
- 1:14Lions are good. Bears are not lions. 7 point
- 1:18favorites. They're going to go in there.
- 1:20They're going to re establish their dominance.
- 1:22And I think they're just going to go in there and, you know,
- 1:24get the crap out of the bears and they're going to, you know,
- 1:29make themselves feel good after licking their wounds all week.
- 1:32So to me, this is just easy. So do with that what you will.
- 1:36So we're going to go lions -7 against the Bears in today's NFL
- 1:42football action. See anything better than that?
- 1:44Pound it. That's my pick, and I'm sticking
- 1:47to it. And Vinny, give him what you
- 1:48got, Gaffer. Tell him how the soccer plays.
- 1:51And don't forget to go over to the Sports Podcast Awards.
- 1:54Give Nate's daily wager a vote. Thanks.
- 1:59Hello my ladies and gentlemen, English Premier League Sunday
- 2:02has returned right now we've got Manchester United down one nil
- 2:07to Bournemouth, good games going on elsewhere, Chelsea, Everton
- 2:10in action, little bit of Leicester City and
- 2:13Wolverhampton, Fulham, Southampton, but the best game
- 2:16of course everybody out there knows just like you know, Nate's
- 2:19going to give you the daily wager.
- 2:21You know my you know Kohl's and Vinny, it's going to give you
- 2:23some good picks, get some Eagles insight for you.
- 2:26Gaff is going to give you what's up, which is the last game, big
- 2:31massive tilt. Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspurs.
- 2:34We're going to see if Liverpool are going to keep it rolling.
- 2:37Do they have what it takes to keep this momentum and stay on
- 2:41top to the standings in the English career league?
- 2:44Yes they are. They're going to get the three
- 2:46points. They're going to get AW, Mohamed
- 2:48Salah's going to score. Good luck, you're going to need
- 2:51it. Yo, it's Colson Vinny, it's week
- 2:5416 and it is cold as hell outside.
- 2:58And it is some good football weather and some good chili
- 3:01weather. If you need a good chili recipe,
- 3:04go ask Nate. He's got a couple he might be
- 3:07able to hook you up with. Did you know that you don't
- 3:10actually supposed to put beans in chili?
- 3:13At least that's that's what they say in Texas.
- 3:15I don't know. I'll let Nate let you guys know
- 3:17about that. But anyway, it's football
- 3:19weather. It's chili weather.
- 3:20And we got one game that we got circled here.
- 3:23At least I got one game that it's just sometimes it's just so
- 3:26obvious. And then when the game plays
- 3:28out, you're like, man, I should have took this game.
- 3:30It's so obvious that was going to happen.
- 3:32And that game today is the Atlanta New York Giants game.
- 3:37In this game, you got the Giants going into the hot Atlanta.
- 3:40And who knows? He's playing quarterback for the
- 3:43Giants every week. He got, you know, cutlets, you
- 3:47got Tim Boyle, you got Drew Lock.
- 3:51You know, just a carousel here. It sounds like a Drew Lock's
- 3:54going to go today. And then on the other side too,
- 3:57in hot Atlanta, you got Michael Putnik, Junior making the start
- 4:01for for Kirk Cousins, who signed that big contract.
- 4:06So not ideal, not ideal. But anyway, you got a rookie
- 4:10quarterback, you got a terrible team with a quarterback carousel
- 4:13and you got the over under. And whenever you have bad
- 4:16quarterback play, the ball's not going to move.
- 4:19It's going to be a run game on the ground.
- 4:22You're not going to hit this over.
- 4:23It's 42 1/2 points right now. And I just think he's going to
- 4:26be a sloppy, ugly game. Do I think ladder probably
- 4:31prevails? They need this game.
- 4:32And the Giants think, yeah, But I don't think it's going to be a
- 4:34blowout. I don't think it's going to be a
- 4:36shootout. And I think you're pretty safe
- 4:38taking the under 42 1/2 points, under 42 1/2 in this one.
- 4:43And sometimes, as Nate said, you just got to go to the dumpster
- 4:46to find these wins. And this is a real obvious case
- 4:49of two crappy quarterbacks going up against each other.
- 4:52And then to my and no offense to Michael Phoenix junior.
- 4:54He could be a good quarterback one day and maybe he does play
- 4:57well. But you know, first game in the
- 4:58NFL, you know, not looking for him to lay up the stat sheet.
- 5:02So take the under in the Giants Atlantic game and take it to the
- 5:07bank and lock it up. And until week 17.
- 5:10This is Cousin Vinnie with your lock of the week.
