Nate's NFL Week 14 Football Wager 1208 · Nate's Daily Wager

0:06
Welcome to Natey's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
0:10
am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
0:13
mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
0:20
December 8th, 2024 and well, I was right about 3 out of four
0:26
yesterday. Unfortunately my wager on here
0:29
was that 4th so I take the L here.
0:32
But overall it's a pretty good day for my bank account so.
0:36
But that's the way it goes sometimes.
0:39
All right, tonight, today we got the football, football Sunday,
0:43
Lots of good games. Actually, not a ton of good
0:46
games. But hey, their games, their
0:48
regular season, they matter. They count.
0:51
That makes them good. So I'm First off, Bills by a
0:54
billion. We all know that.
0:55
Second, listen to Cousin Vinny. I'm totally on what he's laying
0:59
down. And 3rd, I'm looking at this
1:02
Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns game.
1:05
This is going to be a trash, terrible game.
1:08
There isn't going to be actual good football played, which is
1:12
something that I kind of like. I like this mess, these trashy,
1:16
terrible games. You know, I like going down to
1:18
the bottom and getting something and here what I like is the
1:22
spread is currently at 6 1/2. We know Jameson had his terrible
1:27
game last week as I predicted, but now he's going to bounce
1:30
back. I'm not saying the Browns are
1:32
going to win, but they're going to keep it within 6 1/2.
1:35
So that's where we're headed. So we're going to take Cleveland
1:37
Browns plus 6 1/2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers in today's
1:43
NFL football action. See anything better than that?
1:46
Pound it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
1:48
to it. And cuz Minnie's got something
1:50
for you. And maybe the gaffer.
1:52
I'm not sure where they're sitting with the Capri Sun and
1:56
orange slices guys. Ladies and gentlemen, they tried
2:00
to keep the gaffer away. They're holding him up in the
2:03
Pre TSA line, but he's getting through.
2:06
He's got to put in his pick for Nate's daily wager.
2:10
Y'all, here we go. We got some games going on right
2:13
now at halftime. EPL baby, Sunday morning.
2:16
Now we've got the best game, of course is the last game,
2:19
Tottenham Hotspurs against Chelsea, Chelsea's flying man.
2:23
They got a new gaffer, they're getting it done.
2:25
Palmer's always cold. He's he's creating goals, he's
2:28
assisting goals. Chelsea is going to get a three
2:30
points, Y'all. Tottenham had a bad game earlier
2:32
this week in the midweek period. They're not going to play well.
2:35
Chelsea is going to get all three points.
2:37
Good luck, you're going to need it.
2:39
Yo, it's calls a mini. It's week 14 and I'm back.
2:42
And I mean, I'm back, the imposter that was talking to you
2:46
the last two weeks has been disposed of and Cousin Vinny is
2:51
back in the flesh here with a lock of the week.
2:54
And this week we're going to talk about let's talk about the
2:57
eagles. And you guys know that Cousin
3:00
Vinny is a huge, huge Birds fan. And I never ever actually bet
3:05
against the Eagles. But I can give you a couple
3:07
things about my perspective of the Eagles and my intuition as a
3:12
Philadelphia fan. So the week starts out with the
3:15
news that somebody laid a $3.1 million bet on the Eagles money
3:20
line. And -700 now anytime anybody
3:24
with lays a wager like that on your team, you never like to see
3:28
it, especially when your team is a 13 1/2 point favorite.
3:32
This is bad juju written all over it.
3:35
I already felt like this was a trap game.
3:37
I already felt like on the heels of a big win against the Ravens
3:41
and all the hype now starting to surround the Eagles, this game
3:45
is a little bit scary. Do I think the Eagles win?
3:48
Absolutely. But I can tell you how they're
3:50
going to win. They're going to win in one of
3:51
two ways. They're either going to get
3:53
behind early. The Panthers are going to come
3:55
out and punch them in the mouth. Eagles are notoriously slow
3:58
starters in the first quarter, and then the Eagles crawl back
4:01
in the second-half and in the fourth quarter they pull away
4:05
and get a seal of victory by, I don't know, maybe three points
4:09
or seven points, but definitely not 13 1/2.
4:12
The second scenario is the Eagles do come out hot and do
4:15
come out swinging and get a nice lead going into halftime.
4:20
Maybe they're up 24 to six or a healthy lead, healthy cover of
4:25
this 13 1/2. But what's going to happen is,
4:27
OK, we got a nice lead against the Panthers, let's rest some of
4:31
our stars. We have the playoffs to think
4:33
about. We have a couple of division
4:36
games coming up and they let their foot off the gas and the
4:39
Panthers kind of crawl their way back into the game, Maybe not
4:43
really being back in the game, but close enough that you got a
4:46
classic backdoor cover with some garbage time points.
4:49
So I don't like the Eagles being, I'm not comfortable with
4:54
the Eagles being a 13 1/2 point favorites and neither should
4:57
you. So while I cannot technically
5:00
take this action, while I will not wager the Panthers plus 13
5:05
1/2, that doesn't mean you cannot wager on the Panthers
5:09
plus 13 1/2. So if you're smart, you should
5:13
take this Philadelphia fans Juju intuition into account and take
5:18
the Panthers plus 13 1/2 in Philadelphia in Week 14 action.
5:24
