- 0:00Speaker 1: Yep. Inside, I want to kill myself. We're on Own
- 0:06Speaker 1: seven run over the last two days after tonight it
- 0:08Speaker 1: was just complete bullshit. So that's that's I'm gonna start
- 0:12Speaker 1: off this show horrible Sunday one and five. I don't
- 0:15Speaker 1: even know what to tell you about that. I just
- 0:17Speaker 1: don't want to do this anymore. I have never seen
- 0:20Speaker 1: anything like this. Man with the slump continuing, two straight losses,
- 0:25Speaker 1: not a good day at all. Oh in four that
- 0:29Speaker 1: have not had a good season. Man with wookends the
- 0:33Speaker 1: slump that I'm on, and the slump continues. I've reached
- 0:37Speaker 1: into peak. Actually, I'm going to burn my browins hat man,
- 0:42Speaker 1: I don't know what is going on with the Bruins
- 0:45Speaker 1: arch hape? Is that what it is? I don't even
- 0:47Speaker 1: know it's It's March ninth, I think who even knows? Man,
- 0:51Speaker 1: I don't know what data is anymore. But I don't
- 0:53Speaker 1: even know what data is anymore. Man, back with you
- 0:56Speaker 1: after the worst day that I could possibly have, Back
- 0:59Speaker 1: with you as I always am until I die at
- 1:03Speaker 1: least oh and two yesterday and yesterday did not go
- 1:07Speaker 1: well for me. Own five the worst month that I've
- 1:11Speaker 1: ever had in my eighteen years doing this. I don't
- 1:13Speaker 1: know what to even tell you about this anymore. Slump,
- 1:16Speaker 1: the slump discontinuous, the slump continues. Somebody fucking kill me, please.
- 1:23Speaker 1: I don't even know what I should do at this point,
- 1:25Speaker 1: other than potentially end it all. What's up, everybody, It's
- 1:34Speaker 1: towed back with you for better off dead NFL Week
- 1:38Speaker 1: ten edition. I almost said Week eleven, that's not right.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Week ten today sucked ass as usual, two weeks in
- 1:47Speaker 1: a row. We have bad Friday, bad Saturday. Maybe it'll
- 1:51Speaker 1: lead into a good Sunday. I don't fucking know. I
- 1:53Speaker 1: don't know what I'm doing at this point. Do I
- 1:54Speaker 1: know anything at this point? No, Although we would have
- 1:57Speaker 1: had a winning day if it wasn't for bullsh in
- 2:00Speaker 1: the fucking Vanderbilt game. Yet again, it's fucking Vandy going
- 2:05Speaker 1: against them, screwing us Auburn or going with Auburn. How
- 2:10Speaker 1: about that too, Auburn. It seems like every time I'm
- 2:12Speaker 1: on them, some bullshit happens. Auburn. They were winning the
- 2:17Speaker 1: game outright for a bit, they were within the spread
- 2:19Speaker 1: for like the entire second half. Pretty much. It goes
- 2:21Speaker 1: into overtime, really high percentage chance they're gonna cover. If
- 2:25Speaker 1: you have the game going into overtime, you're taking almost
- 2:28Speaker 1: a touchdown underdog. Obviously you called the game right now.
- 2:32Speaker 1: They go ahead, and they lose by fucking seven in
- 2:34Speaker 1: overtime because in whatever overtime period it was, Vandy gets
- 2:37Speaker 1: the first possession, they score its touchdown, and then Auburn
- 2:40Speaker 1: has to match that and what do they do, Oh yeah,
- 2:42Speaker 1: they turn it over and downs, so you lose the
- 2:44Speaker 1: play by a fucking half point. I don't think. I
- 2:47Speaker 1: don't I do not think the seven was ever out there.
- 2:50Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you about this. And
- 2:51Speaker 1: then both hockey losses were bullshit, like we had the
- 2:55Speaker 1: lead early. I think. Get both of those hockey games.
- 2:59Speaker 1: I don't even know what to say about it anymore. Utah,
- 3:03Speaker 1: the final score in that one. I think it was
- 3:05Speaker 1: the Utah one that was a six to two final.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I mean that game was like three to two with
- 3:09Speaker 1: five minutes left in the game probably or something like that,
- 3:12Speaker 1: So that game was not out of reach, or maybe
- 3:14Speaker 1: I might be thinking of the other I don't even know.
- 3:16Speaker 1: But if you look at what happened in the game
- 3:18Speaker 1: like that Utah in Washington both statistically dominated their games,
- 3:22Speaker 1: like they had more shots, more face off wins, more hits.
- 3:25Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure, just total bullshit in those games. I'm
- 3:29Speaker 1: fucking pissed, like I don't think any of them should
- 3:32Speaker 1: have lost. Of course, we did get the win of
- 3:34Speaker 1: the Islanders, so whatever, football, I mean, what do you want?
- 3:38Speaker 1: Like Texas Tech started off well, that was an easy win.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Boston College didn't even get up for the Red Bandana game.
- 3:45Speaker 1: Even though BC that was a low scoring game. Pretty
- 3:48Speaker 1: deep into the game it looked like, yeah, they were
- 3:51Speaker 1: like a touchdown away from covering for a bunch, but
- 3:53Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, they're losing like forty to ten,
- 3:56Speaker 1: Like what the fuck? I don't know what the fuck
- 3:58Speaker 1: happened in that game. Yukon won outright, so we got
- 4:01Speaker 1: that game right. That was That was a good call. Finally,
- 4:05Speaker 1: that one a Missouri basically got absolutely ass blasted by
- 4:10Speaker 1: Texas A and M's. That was fucking fun. That one
- 4:13Speaker 1: was never even close to happening. So that was a
- 4:16Speaker 1: terrible call. Auburn, as we already talked about, was total
- 4:19Speaker 1: bullshit college basketball. Good call by me on Boise State,
- 4:23Speaker 1: that was a pretty easy win. Even though the market
- 4:25Speaker 1: actually wound up being against it. They won easy, but
- 4:28Speaker 1: I think they won by like at least thirty I
- 4:30Speaker 1: think in that game that was an easy win for Bois.
- 4:32Speaker 1: They actually scored over one hundred points, which they usually
- 4:35Speaker 1: do not do. Speaking of basketball, Sun's Clippers on right now,
- 4:39Speaker 1: isn't that just great? Everybody wants to watch that piece
- 4:41Speaker 1: of shit? Colorado won. It didn't cover because of course
- 4:44Speaker 1: they did. Fuck them. They were basically never in position
- 4:48Speaker 1: to cover that. So that was a loser, even though
- 4:51Speaker 1: the market seemed to agree with it. Queen's missed the
- 4:54Speaker 1: cover by two points. I mean that they were just
- 4:56Speaker 1: hanging around like close to that number the whole time
- 4:59Speaker 1: Queen's was and they fell on the wrong side of it.
- 5:02Speaker 1: In the end, I was thinking Villanova would just kind
- 5:04Speaker 1: of take their foot off the gas, play a little
- 5:06Speaker 1: bit slower and that would get within that number there.
- 5:08Speaker 1: But no, we lost by one and a half points
- 5:10Speaker 1: on that one. And then what was the other one?
- 5:14Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Tarlton State. That line moved a lot. That
- 5:17Speaker 1: line moved up to like three, so what like hopefully
- 5:21Speaker 1: people still played it because it won anyway. I mean,
- 5:23Speaker 1: they won pretty easily. They would have won and covered
- 5:25Speaker 1: any of those numbers. So we did get Tarleton right,
- 5:28Speaker 1: and then the New Orleans Saints and or the New
- 5:30Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. Oh god, am I projecting? Am I gonna
- 5:33Speaker 1: have a play in the New Orleans Saints this week? Oh?
- 5:35Speaker 1: My god? The Pelicans got in the back door that game.
- 5:40Speaker 1: They were just kind of hovering close the whole time,
- 5:42Speaker 1: and they were able to make a little bit of
- 5:44Speaker 1: a run in the last couple of minutes and push it,
- 5:46Speaker 1: and they actually pushed it within three points near the
- 5:50Speaker 1: end of that game. They lost by six, So we
- 5:51Speaker 1: did get the Pelicans cover, correct, Jamison? What's up man? Yeah,
- 5:57Speaker 1: I'm still alive for now, probably not for long, Charles,
- 6:00Speaker 1: what's up? Thanks for hanging out. Justin de Missouri Missouri
- 6:03Speaker 1: state win. I didn't even see it. Did they actually
- 6:05Speaker 1: win out right against Liberty? If so? I was wrong
- 6:10Speaker 1: about that game? But I did not give out a
- 6:12Speaker 1: play on a dirty sock? What's up? Yeah? I'm gonna
- 6:14Speaker 1: fucking end it all man. What do you like? What
- 6:16Speaker 1: do you want the Yeah, dude, I'm never not. It's
- 6:22Speaker 1: like every time I'm either playing on an Auburn game
- 6:25Speaker 1: on Auburn or against Vandy, I wind up getting so
- 6:28Speaker 1: fucking pissed off. It's absolutely ridiculous. Bobby, what's up man?
- 6:34Speaker 1: When min Yama? I don't think he's possible to figure out,
- 6:37Speaker 1: Like he just has a physical advantage, Like it doesn't
- 6:39Speaker 1: even matter if you figure him out. Like he just
- 6:41Speaker 1: has a ridiculous wingspan, he's tall, and he can play
- 6:45Speaker 1: kind of on the perimeter as well. I mean, there's
- 6:47Speaker 1: no real recipe for doing that. Like that was a
- 6:51Speaker 1: game where I just think san Antonio just didn't really
- 6:53Speaker 1: give a shit about the game. That's that's that was.
- 6:56Speaker 1: That was the reason why I went against them in
- 6:57Speaker 1: that game. I was just like, bad spot for san Antonio.
- 7:01Speaker 1: But maybe not a great sign that they didn't do
- 7:04Speaker 1: that well against a Pelican team that doesn't have their
- 7:06Speaker 1: big man right now in Zion. But I don't know,
- 7:10Speaker 1: justin Sam Houston versus Oregon State, I'm I do not
- 7:17Speaker 1: even know what's going on. What channel is that on.
- 7:19Speaker 1: I have no idea the CW or something like that,
- 7:22Speaker 1: CBS Sports, I don't know. A late touchdown on an
- 7:28Speaker 1: oh and then an interception to end the game. That's
- 7:31Speaker 1: pretty crazy. I'm kind of surprised. Now Liberty is not
- 7:34Speaker 1: gonna make the conference championship. The most ridiculous game of
- 7:39Speaker 1: the day, by the way, was a loser for our
- 7:42Speaker 1: boy Rowdy Rhymes. You know what I'm talking about, the
- 7:44Speaker 1: dude who has like cerebral palsy or whatever, and he's awesome, dude.
- 7:48Speaker 1: He was on such a hot streak, you know what
- 7:50Speaker 1: I'm talking about. He wears a hat. He makes those
- 7:52Speaker 1: short videos where he doesn't even explain himself. He just
- 7:55Speaker 1: tells you what his play is. But one of his
- 7:58Speaker 1: plays that he had a parlay that of Washington minus
- 8:01Speaker 1: the points. I'm like, that's not gonna be good. Because
- 8:04Speaker 1: I liked Wisconsin in that game. I was somewhat considering
- 8:07Speaker 1: making that a play to name Wisconsin won the game outright.
- 8:10Speaker 1: But that was one of the most ridiculous games that
- 8:12Speaker 1: you'll ever see. Like, congratulations to anybody who had the
- 8:16Speaker 1: under in that game, because that game, the longest touchdown
- 8:21Speaker 1: drive in the entire game was a seven yard touchdown drive.
- 8:24Speaker 1: The other and the other one was one yard like
- 8:27Speaker 1: there was a turnover or something that set up a
- 8:30Speaker 1: one yard touchdown drive. Those are the only two touchdowns
- 8:33Speaker 1: in the game, and Wisconsin's quarterback got hurt in the game.
- 8:36Speaker 1: They put in some backup quarterback or maybe two of them,
- 8:38Speaker 1: and they both didn't do shit. And Wisconsin's leading passer
- 8:43Speaker 1: in the game was their punter who never actually lined
- 8:46Speaker 1: up as quarterback. I think he just made one completion
- 8:49Speaker 1: on a fake punt and he was the leading passer
- 8:52Speaker 1: with like one twenty yard pass or something like that,
- 8:55Speaker 1: and they won the game, which I don't even know.
- 8:59Speaker 1: I don't know what to say about that, but it's
- 9:00Speaker 1: one of the most hilarious things. Wemba's had a slump
- 9:05Speaker 1: last few games. Well, one of them was against Houston.
- 9:08Speaker 1: I mean, Houston could kind of counter him because Houston
- 9:11Speaker 1: has the tallest line up in the NBA, so that
- 9:14Speaker 1: might be like part of the reason why. And I
- 9:16Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I think the spot was just
- 9:19Speaker 1: kind of way. Did san Antonio win that game or
- 9:21Speaker 1: do they lose? I can't remember now. No, the san
- 9:24Speaker 1: Antonio actually beat Houston, right, I don't know. Well, who's
- 9:27Speaker 1: figure who's figuring san Antonio out? I don't know of.
- 9:30Speaker 1: San Antonio did lose to the Lakers, which I didn't
- 9:32Speaker 1: really expect because san Antonio has the better deepense. Although
- 9:35Speaker 1: san Antonio is still covered in that game. I don't know.
- 9:39Speaker 1: I'm not really watching all these games to see what's
- 9:41Speaker 1: going on. But still I think he's a physical freak.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Like I don't really think you could possibly like figure
- 9:46Speaker 1: him out and like stop him. Does he have AIDS?
- 9:50Speaker 1: I don't know. He is French, but he missed a
- 9:53Speaker 1: lot of time last year because of he had like
- 9:55Speaker 1: a blood clot, and I'm thinking that doesn't that like
- 9:57Speaker 1: end your career if you have a blood clot. I
- 10:00Speaker 1: don't know, but he's out there. He might collapse on
- 10:02Speaker 1: the court like Reggie Lewis style. One of the things
- 10:05Speaker 1: that ruined the Celtics chances in my childhood, though, that
- 10:09Speaker 1: was because Reggie Lewis was on cocaine, which stopped his heart.
- 10:14Speaker 1: It's on the CW. Should I put it on c W.
- 10:19Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it on right now, baby, And we
- 10:21Speaker 1: gotta get into the NFL. I got my Jackson Dart jersey.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Here here we go, baby, my Chinese knockoff jerseys that
- 10:28Speaker 1: actually basically look better than the Fanatics ones. Fuck Fanatics.
- 10:33Speaker 1: They should sponsor me a fanatics. You gotta pay like
- 10:36Speaker 1: hundreds of bucks for these things and then I'm like, no,
- 10:38Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a Chinese wholesale jersey, and it's like
- 10:41Speaker 1: almost the same quality and they don't really fuck it
- 10:43Speaker 1: up or anything. You just have to wait like three
- 10:45Speaker 1: weeks for it to come internationally and then through the
- 10:48Speaker 1: US Postal Service. There we go. It's on right now.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Sam Houston down by three in the third quarter. It
- 10:55Speaker 1: looks like here seems like actually an interesting game. These
- 10:59Speaker 1: two teams bowl blow though. Dude, I forgot to talk
- 11:01Speaker 1: about this game on my show. But Oregon State, I
- 11:04Speaker 1: was correct about their game last week. They actually pulled
- 11:06Speaker 1: off the upset against Washington State, which was their that's
- 11:10Speaker 1: their only conference rival, their only conference opponent, so that
- 11:14Speaker 1: was a big game. So I kind of thought this
- 11:16Speaker 1: was a little bit of a letdown spot for Oregon State.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I just didn't know about Sam Houston having to go
- 11:20Speaker 1: out to the Pacific coast. Phoenix gave out a blueprint
- 11:25Speaker 1: for figuring out wemby. I I don't know. I still
- 11:29Speaker 1: don't think so. I mean, I think he's still gonna
- 11:31Speaker 1: do it really well. Like I still just don't think
- 11:34Speaker 1: you can really stop him. I'm gonn I'm gonna put
- 11:36Speaker 1: on my Wemby Jersey the next time, I have a
- 11:38Speaker 1: Spurs play just for you, baby, just for Bobby. I
- 11:45Speaker 1: don't know what we're talking about here at this point.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Let me get into the NFL here though. Oh, both
- 11:51Speaker 1: these teams are terrible, Yeah for sure, all right, NFL man.
- 11:56Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna give out three plays here, and
- 11:59Speaker 1: my night is tentative right now. I'm gonna wait for
- 12:02Speaker 1: a little bit on the Monday night game because I
- 12:04Speaker 1: do like one of the sides, but the market is
- 12:06Speaker 1: kind of against it right now, So I'm holding off
- 12:08Speaker 1: on the Monday night game, and I'm gonna talk about
- 12:10Speaker 1: it again on Monday morning and maybe give out a
- 12:13Speaker 1: play on that at some point. We'll see. But I'm
- 12:15Speaker 1: gonna give about three other plays here, and you're gonna
- 12:17Speaker 1: hate these. I guarantee that, well, you might hate one
- 12:20Speaker 1: of them more than the other ones, because you know
- 12:22Speaker 1: me with my ugly underdog plays. You know there's gonna
- 12:26Speaker 1: be at least one of those in there. NFL first
- 12:28Speaker 1: game up. Unfortunately, we have more NFL Europe to deal
- 12:31Speaker 1: with here. We have a Berlin game now, and next
- 12:35Speaker 1: week there's gonna be a game fucking Madrid where I've been,
- 12:39Speaker 1: by the way, I've not been to Berlin. I've been
- 12:42Speaker 1: to Madrid, though I don't have anything to say about
- 12:47Speaker 1: that except I think when I was in Madrid, I
- 12:51Speaker 1: ordered a steak where I didn't know what the meat
- 12:53Speaker 1: was gonna be, and it was this really weird rare
- 12:55Speaker 1: red meat. It was very tender with some salt sprinkled on.
- 12:59Speaker 1: It was like a filet, and I'm almost certain that
- 13:01Speaker 1: it was horse. But it actually tasted pretty good, so whatever,
- 13:06Speaker 1: And it wasn't that expensive, so I'm not gonna complain.
- 13:08Speaker 1: It was, like, I don't know, it was with some
- 13:10Speaker 1: dudes like we gotta find some food, man like after midnight,
- 13:13Speaker 1: Like hey, this restaurant is open. This doesn't look sketchy.
- 13:17Speaker 1: Let's let's go eat here. Oh they have a steak
- 13:19Speaker 1: on the menu. All right, Oh what is this? All right?
- 13:25Speaker 1: The Berlin game, it does involve my Indianapolis Colts against
- 13:28Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. This is a hard game for me
- 13:32Speaker 1: to read, man, because basically, immediately you're gonna know that
- 13:36Speaker 1: the Colts are gonna be a favorite here and probably
- 13:38Speaker 1: favored by too much, so the public is probably still
- 13:41Speaker 1: gonna be on the Colts side. And probably unjustifiably, and
- 13:44Speaker 1: that is what the market is reflecting. Colts are down
- 13:47Speaker 1: actually from a seven point favorite to with a six
- 13:49Speaker 1: and a half point favorite, which may have been the
- 13:52Speaker 1: seven might have been the look ahead. So maybe the
- 13:54Speaker 1: Colts got docked a little bit because of their performance
- 13:56Speaker 1: last week. Seventy seven percent of tickets, only seventy three
- 13:59Speaker 1: percent of cash on the Colts, So market Reid just
- 14:03Speaker 1: pure market. Reid says, take the points with the Falcons,
- 14:06Speaker 1: and generally I would probably say, yeah, I would agree
- 14:09Speaker 1: with that, because I do think India is not as
- 14:11Speaker 1: good as they look, as I've been talking about for
- 14:13Speaker 1: a while now. I recommended maybe going against them last week,
- 14:16Speaker 1: which wasn't one of my plays, but I did a
- 14:20Speaker 1: pick against Indy last week. Indy just has played a
- 14:24Speaker 1: pretty easy schedule man so far, so I don't think
- 14:27Speaker 1: they're as good as the record looks. Their offense has
- 14:29Speaker 1: been pretty good though. Now the question with this game
- 14:33Speaker 1: really is though, which team is going to travel better?
- 14:35Speaker 1: Because I don't think either of these teams was really
- 14:37Speaker 1: used to going and playing in these Europe games, So
- 14:41Speaker 1: which team is gonna play better here? I don't know,
- 14:44Speaker 1: that is the question. I think what you want to
- 14:46Speaker 1: do is like look and see if you can find
- 14:48Speaker 1: information about which team traveled over there earlier, because I
- 14:51Speaker 1: think if a team got over there earlier and adjusted
- 14:53Speaker 1: to the time zone earlier, that's a little bit of
- 14:55Speaker 1: an edgile. I know it didn't work out for Jacksonville,
- 14:58Speaker 1: who should have had the experience going out there and
- 15:00Speaker 1: they had the edge of going out there earlier, and
- 15:02Speaker 1: they still got completely wrecked. So who knows. Based on
- 15:08Speaker 1: what happened last week, though, it almost looks like the
- 15:10Speaker 1: colt should be in a bounced back spot though, because
- 15:12Speaker 1: they lost that game as a favorite at Pittsburgh. It
- 15:16Speaker 1: did end a win streak for the Colts, though, so
- 15:18Speaker 1: sometimes when you lose a win streak, it hangs you
- 15:20Speaker 1: over into the next game, although that wasn't the case
- 15:22Speaker 1: when the Colts lost to the Rams earlier. They came
- 15:25Speaker 1: out and they just bounced back and destroyed the Raiders
- 15:28Speaker 1: in the next game, So maybe they'll bounce back from it.
- 15:32Speaker 1: One thing about this Pittsburgh game, though, is it was
- 15:34Speaker 1: very misleading the fact that Pittsburgh won the game outright.
- 15:37Speaker 1: If you look at the stats in this game, it's
- 15:40Speaker 1: not what you would expect in They outgained Pittsburgh by
- 15:43Speaker 1: one hundred and forty yards one hundred and forty three yards,
- 15:46Speaker 1: They out first downed them by nine first downs, and
- 15:50Speaker 1: they outpossessed them by a few minutes. The reason why
- 15:52Speaker 1: they lost the game is because they had six turnovers
- 15:56Speaker 1: minus five and turnovers that's ridiculous. That's an outlier that's
- 15:59Speaker 1: probably not gonna happen again. So it does look like
- 16:02Speaker 1: based on that box where you should expect Indy to
- 16:05Speaker 1: do better this time, and they they fucking better because
- 16:07Speaker 1: I have Jonathan Taylor in fantasy and that's like the
- 16:10Speaker 1: main reason I lost last week was Jonathan Taylor was
- 16:13Speaker 1: a total no show, and so was Patrick Mahomes and
- 16:16Speaker 1: he's on by this week, so I need Taylor to
- 16:19Speaker 1: do something here. As far as Atlanta is concerned, they're
- 16:23Speaker 1: coming off a tougher game they hung with New England.
- 16:25Speaker 1: They actually played pretty well in this game against New England,
- 16:28Speaker 1: although New England did outgain them I think by about
- 16:30Speaker 1: one hundred yards in this game. No, actually I'm wrong,
- 16:33Speaker 1: it was actually about less than fifty. I'm wrong about
- 16:36Speaker 1: that because I know New England had some turnovers. They
- 16:38Speaker 1: were minus two in turnovers that helped Atlanta stay in
- 16:41Speaker 1: the game. But I think it was just kind of
- 16:43Speaker 1: a big game for Atlanta. I mean, they played close,
- 16:46Speaker 1: they actually had a chance to win the game at
- 16:47Speaker 1: the end, and they missed an extra point. Parker Romo,
- 16:51Speaker 1: looks like Atlanta should not have cut Yung Way Kou.
- 16:54Speaker 1: What are they gonna do cut every one of their
- 16:56Speaker 1: kickers that this is an extra point? Oh coo, this
- 16:58Speaker 1: is an extra point in week one? Or no, he
- 17:00Speaker 1: missed a field goal. I guess in week one. I
- 17:02Speaker 1: think it was that could have won them the game
- 17:05Speaker 1: against the Buccaneers, which they should have won. Oh yeah,
- 17:09Speaker 1: you're cut from the team now, Parker Romo. This is
- 17:11Speaker 1: an extra point and that would have tied the game
- 17:13Speaker 1: against New England. But he's still there. I don't know.
- 17:16Speaker 1: And Yung Wai Ku is on this team, the New
- 17:18Speaker 1: York Giants, and it looks like he might play. I
- 17:22Speaker 1: don't know, because they have Graham Gano too, so I
- 17:24Speaker 1: don't know. Kicking situation very weird for the Giants right now.
- 17:28Speaker 1: But anyway, based on the situation here, I actually think
- 17:31Speaker 1: I would I would lean towards Indy slightly, just because
- 17:34Speaker 1: it was a very misleading loss, and I would kind
- 17:37Speaker 1: of expect them to bounce back a little bit, whereas
- 17:39Speaker 1: Atlanta had a tougher game last week. But Market Reid
- 17:43Speaker 1: is saying take the points of the Falcons. So I
- 17:45Speaker 1: don't like it when situation could flicks with Market. Don't
- 17:48Speaker 1: love it at all. I don't know which way I'm
- 17:51Speaker 1: gonna go tomorrow, to be honest, like, and that's gonna
- 17:55Speaker 1: that game is gonna go probably before I do my
- 17:57Speaker 1: morning show tomorrow. So I don't even know which pick
- 18:00Speaker 1: I would give out in this one right now, man,
- 18:02Speaker 1: I guess I would say probably. It depends on what
- 18:05Speaker 1: number you have in your game, is what I would say.
- 18:08Speaker 1: Like if you're picking, you know on ESPN, whatever your
- 18:10Speaker 1: game is, if you have seven or seven and a half,
- 18:14Speaker 1: I would probably take it with the Falcons, But if
- 18:16Speaker 1: it's six and a half, I would probably lay it
- 18:18Speaker 1: with the Colts. I mean, that's how week of an
- 18:22Speaker 1: opinion I have on that one. The next game up
- 18:24Speaker 1: is the game everybody's waiting for a baby, Browns and Jets.
- 18:27Speaker 1: I know everybody won once this game. The Jets basically
- 18:31Speaker 1: unloaded half the roster at the trade deadline, which we
- 18:35Speaker 1: know they traded Sauce Gardener to my Indianapolis Colts. So,
- 18:39Speaker 1: by the way, I'm assuming he's gonna play for the
- 18:41Speaker 1: Colts this week, I would guess, so the Colts should
- 18:44Speaker 1: have that going on a little bit of an improvement
- 18:47Speaker 1: on defense. Maybe the Jets traded I believe one of
- 18:51Speaker 1: their defensive linemen was that quin and Williams, Quinn Williams,
- 18:55Speaker 1: whatever his name is, he went to Dallas. I want
- 18:57Speaker 1: to say, is that right? Did I get that right?
- 18:59Speaker 1: I don't even know, But we know that the Jets
- 19:01Speaker 1: unloaded a bunch of their players, and that's basically a
- 19:05Speaker 1: signal that, hey, we're packing it in for the season.
- 19:07Speaker 1: Although you could have probably already guessed that because the
- 19:10Speaker 1: Jets have one win, but the Jets were kind of
- 19:14Speaker 1: underperforming a little bit and a little bit better than
- 19:16Speaker 1: their record will look. But now it looks like maybe
- 19:17Speaker 1: the mindset of the Jets is gonna be We're just
- 19:21Speaker 1: not gonna give a shit for the rest of the season.
- 19:22Speaker 1: Like so you gotta try to weigh that, which is
- 19:25Speaker 1: it's really difficult to figure out if that's gonna be
- 19:27Speaker 1: the Jets mindset or not. Now after those trades, happened.
- 19:31Speaker 1: The Jets went from like a two or two and
- 19:32Speaker 1: a half point favorite all the way to the Browns
- 19:35Speaker 1: actually being a two point favorite pretty much here. So
- 19:38Speaker 1: the line completely flipped basically just based on those trades.
- 19:41Speaker 1: So I think the Browns actually traded one of their
- 19:44Speaker 1: defensive players away too. But is that line moving over reaction?
- 19:50Speaker 1: It might be. I mean, the public doesn't want anything
- 19:52Speaker 1: to do with the Jets still, to the point where
- 19:54Speaker 1: the public is actually on the Browns as a road favorite.
- 19:58Speaker 1: I mean, when are you ever gonna see that be
- 19:59Speaker 1: the case and one of the Browns ever a road favorite? Never,
- 20:03Speaker 1: So I'm not sure that. I'm not sure that it's
- 20:05Speaker 1: justified to make the Browns a road favorite. Man, it
- 20:08Speaker 1: depends on whether the Jets will actually show up and
- 20:10Speaker 1: try to win this game or not. Sixty nine percent
- 20:13Speaker 1: of tickets fifty five percent of the cash on the Browns,
- 20:16Speaker 1: so they're public with less of the money on them.
- 20:19Speaker 1: So i'man I guess just based on the market read
- 20:21Speaker 1: when I really don't have a strong opinion, otherwise I
- 20:24Speaker 1: would have to lean towards taking that those points of
- 20:27Speaker 1: the Jets or just leaning to the Jets. I guess
- 20:29Speaker 1: win the game, which sounds a bit ridiculous. Both of
- 20:33Speaker 1: these teams are coming out of a bye, which, by
- 20:36Speaker 1: the way, the byes this week are Cincinnati, Dallas, Tennessee,
- 20:38Speaker 1: and Kansas City. Unfortunately Kansas City because I have Mahomes
- 20:42Speaker 1: and Rice and Fantasy, but what can you do. They
- 20:46Speaker 1: have to have a bye at some point. I'm sitting
- 20:49Speaker 1: at seven and two after losing last week in my
- 20:51Speaker 1: main league, so I'm pissed because I'm probably gonna lose
- 20:54Speaker 1: again this week. Anyway, Brown's Jets both coming out of
- 20:59Speaker 1: a bye, This is gonna be a horrendous game, though,
- 21:02Speaker 1: Like however you look at it, both teams could be tanking,
- 21:05Speaker 1: so I don't know, man. The Browns went into the
- 21:08Speaker 1: buy in a really bad note, getting blown out by
- 21:10Speaker 1: New England, so that buye actually came in a decent time,
- 21:13Speaker 1: because when a buye comes when you had a bad
- 21:15Speaker 1: game going into the buy, sometimes you'll use that buy
- 21:17Speaker 1: to fix some things. So maybe Cleveland will be embarrassed
- 21:20Speaker 1: off of that loss to New England try to fix
- 21:22Speaker 1: some things. Although for Cleveland, I mean this offense with
- 21:26Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel, I mean this offense has done nothing I mean,
- 21:28Speaker 1: this has not been the answer, So I don't know, man,
- 21:32Speaker 1: But they do have a better by spot because the
- 21:35Speaker 1: Jets went into a buye on their first wins. Like
- 21:38Speaker 1: what happens, Oh, the Jets are owned seven. They finally
- 21:41Speaker 1: win a game in a crazy high scoring game against
- 21:44Speaker 1: an awful Cincinnati deepfense, and as soon as they get
- 21:46Speaker 1: some momentum and break that losing momentum, oh yeah, shit,
- 21:49Speaker 1: we have a bye. The Jets had a buye, and
- 21:53Speaker 1: I think that buye came in a bad time for them,
- 21:55Speaker 1: and they do have to turn around it. On Thursday,
- 21:58Speaker 1: they got to play New England. You know, this Jets team,
- 22:00Speaker 1: if they're not showing up for games that might be
- 22:03Speaker 1: a game, they still might show up for having to
- 22:05Speaker 1: play against New England. And that's gonna be in four
- 22:08Speaker 1: days on Thursday. So actually, the situation to me does
- 22:11Speaker 1: look like it's actually better for the Browns. So this
- 22:15Speaker 1: is another game where it's situation versus market. So it's
- 22:18Speaker 1: like which one do you want to go with here?
- 22:20Speaker 1: Like I usually tend to my autism basically basically like
- 22:24Speaker 1: gets in my head and goes no toad, Like you
- 22:26Speaker 1: don't know more than the than the market, like as
- 22:29Speaker 1: a whole, Like you don't know more than all of
- 22:31Speaker 1: these actors acting in the market. I'm like, well, I
- 22:33Speaker 1: don't know, do I or don't I? Cause like sometimes
- 22:36Speaker 1: when I think that I know the situation, like it
- 22:39Speaker 1: feels like that beats the market more than it loses
- 22:42Speaker 1: to the market if they're differing. So I don't know.
- 22:44Speaker 1: So both these first games, that's what I have to
- 22:47Speaker 1: say about them, though, I guess both both of these
- 22:49Speaker 1: first games, the situation will read for me is against
- 22:53Speaker 1: the market and both of them. So market says Falcons
- 22:57Speaker 1: and Jets. Situation will read at least the way that
- 22:59Speaker 1: I it says, uh, Colts and Brown's. So I don't know.
- 23:06Speaker 1: I'm do with that information what you will? I guess
- 23:11Speaker 1: The next game up, this one is almost a play
- 23:13Speaker 1: for me. This is the first game where I actually
- 23:14Speaker 1: have a stronger opinion on it. Saints Panthers. Panthers are
- 23:19Speaker 1: up from a three and a half point favorite to
- 23:20Speaker 1: a five and a half point favorite. Panthers are public
- 23:23Speaker 1: seventy five percent, ticket seventy two percent of the cash.
- 23:27Speaker 1: I'm gonna lean to taking the points with the Saints here, man,
- 23:30Speaker 1: Like that's what I would do in this game. I
- 23:32Speaker 1: just don't know, because, like I've taken the points with
- 23:35Speaker 1: the Saints so many times this year and lost like
- 23:37Speaker 1: one of my own three uh one and three? Maybe
- 23:41Speaker 1: did the Saints cover for me once? I forget? Uh yeah, no,
- 23:45Speaker 1: the Saints did cover for me against the Giants once.
- 23:47Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I'm one in three playing on
- 23:50Speaker 1: the Saints this year. So it's I gotta stop, baby,
- 23:53Speaker 1: and this will be the time where it does happen. Now,
- 23:55Speaker 1: the Panthers probably don't deserve to be a favorite like this,
- 23:58Speaker 1: so there are definitely some things that I like about
- 24:00Speaker 1: the Saints here. I mean the Panthers. I think the
- 24:04Speaker 1: last time they were a favorite of this magnitude was
- 24:07Speaker 1: probably years ago. I would imagine, like the Panthers are
- 24:11Speaker 1: never a favorite like this, and that's just how disrespected
- 24:15Speaker 1: the Saints are on the market. And maybe it's justified
- 24:17Speaker 1: because the Saints probably one of the worst teams in football.
- 24:21Speaker 1: I mean, it's them and Tennessee are actually probably even
- 24:24Speaker 1: worse than the Jets. Panthers are in a bad spot here, though,
- 24:28Speaker 1: I mean we know this. I gave out the Panthers
- 24:30Speaker 1: as a play last week. And what did they do. Yeah,
- 24:32Speaker 1: they pulled off an upset of the green Bay Packers.
- 24:35Speaker 1: So that was a big, double digit upset. But I
- 24:38Speaker 1: told you the reason for playing against the Packers in
- 24:40Speaker 1: that game was the Packers. We're in a sandwich spot.
- 24:43Speaker 1: I thought the Packers were not going to show up
- 24:45Speaker 1: in that game because the Panthers, or excuse me, the Packers.
- 24:48Speaker 1: We're coming off that big win in the Aaron Rodgers
- 24:51Speaker 1: Bowl Sunday night primetime against Pittsburgh, huge game, and they
- 24:54Speaker 1: had this big Monday night game up this week against Philadelphia,
- 24:57Speaker 1: which is also playoff revenge for green Bay because Philly
- 25:01Speaker 1: knocked them out of the playoffs last year. So I
- 25:03Speaker 1: was like, they're gonna overlook Carolina here. I didn't really
- 25:06Speaker 1: expect Carolina to win outright, but they did. So now
- 25:10Speaker 1: Carolina coming up that ridiculous upset, and it was not
- 25:14Speaker 1: as good as it really looked, because again, it was
- 25:16Speaker 1: I think more green Bay just playing poorly than Carolina
- 25:19Speaker 1: playing well. So I don't think Carolina deserves to be
- 25:23Speaker 1: this much of a favorite against anybody, to be honest,
- 25:25Speaker 1: under any circumstance. If you look at this game, it
- 25:28Speaker 1: was just ugly on both sides this game Carolina against
- 25:32Speaker 1: green Bay. Green Bay did outgain Carolina by over one
- 25:35Speaker 1: hundred yards, so Carolina did not outplay green Bay statistically
- 25:39Speaker 1: in this game, so it was a little bit of
- 25:40Speaker 1: a misleading result there too. So that's gonna make Carolina
- 25:43Speaker 1: look better than they actually were. And even though this
- 25:46Speaker 1: is a divisional game, I don't think anybody's gonna take
- 25:49Speaker 1: New Orleans very seriously and Carolina up next, they do
- 25:52Speaker 1: have Atlanta, which is a bigger divisional game coming up
- 25:55Speaker 1: after this, so it is basically a sandwich spot that
- 25:59Speaker 1: Carolina is in here. It's just I don't I don't
- 26:01Speaker 1: know if I could do it, man, I don't know
- 26:04Speaker 1: if I could recommend another play on New Orleans. As
- 26:06Speaker 1: horrible as they are, they're on a four game loss street.
- 26:10Speaker 1: I mean, they did get blown out in their last game,
- 26:12Speaker 1: but this is gonna be a second straight road game
- 26:15Speaker 1: for them now, which I don't particularly love that type
- 26:18Speaker 1: of setup. And they haven't had a bye yet, so
- 26:21Speaker 1: it's actually a third road game in four weeks, so
- 26:23Speaker 1: that does kind of worry me a little bit. And
- 26:25Speaker 1: they're traveling from the Pacific coast because they were just
- 26:28Speaker 1: in La all the way east. So I do worry
- 26:30Speaker 1: a little bit about New Orleans. They're gonna have Shaw
- 26:33Speaker 1: again or shuck? How do you pronounce his name? About it?
- 26:37Speaker 1: What is he shucking? Corn? I don't know. The Louisville
- 26:40Speaker 1: grad him. I mean, he hasn't been horrible, really, but
- 26:45Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, do we trust him? I
- 26:47Speaker 1: don't know. I mean maybe we trust him to cover
- 26:49Speaker 1: against a weak team like Carolina, And I mean Saints
- 26:53Speaker 1: have been embarrassed last couple of weeks, and they were
- 26:55Speaker 1: playing better earlier earlier in the season. Last week they
- 26:58Speaker 1: were my only loss out of the three plays I
- 27:01Speaker 1: gave out, and they did get pretty much dominated in
- 27:03Speaker 1: this game, though the Rams outgained the my two hundred
- 27:06Speaker 1: yards more than two hundred yards out first down them
- 27:09Speaker 1: thirty to ten, I outpossess them forty four to sixteen.
- 27:14Speaker 1: This is a bad call on my part. I mean,
- 27:17Speaker 1: that was not even a very misleading result, even though
- 27:19Speaker 1: New Orleans did have two turnovers as well. Given all
- 27:22Speaker 1: of that, I don't know that I can actually do it.
- 27:24Speaker 1: I don't know that I can give it out as
- 27:25Speaker 1: a play. I'll pick New Orleans plus the points and
- 27:28Speaker 1: my pickums and stuff. But that one's not gonna make
- 27:31Speaker 1: my card, although if I added an extra one, it
- 27:33Speaker 1: would probably be that one of the Saints. But I'm
- 27:37Speaker 1: not gonna do it, man, I can't do it. Bets
- 27:40Speaker 1: on the spectrum. Yeah, well, obviously the Saints are garbage.
- 27:44Speaker 1: That's factored into the line. Pulled pork sandwich spot. Yeah,
- 27:51Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, like this team is garbage that
- 27:54Speaker 1: like thought is always built into the line, man, So
- 27:56Speaker 1: that's why you're always getting a ton of points. Like
- 27:59Speaker 1: Caroline and I think they're five and four right now.
- 28:01Speaker 1: There's no way they deserve to be five and four.
- 28:04Speaker 1: That Carolina team is shit, Like they are not five.
- 28:07Speaker 1: They are not worthy of being above five hundred at all.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Like they're definitely gonna regress, and maybe it starts here,
- 28:13Speaker 1: like they do not deserve to be a favorite of
- 28:15Speaker 1: anywhere near this magnitude. And I'm pretty sure the three
- 28:18Speaker 1: and a half was the look ahead, So before last
- 28:20Speaker 1: week's games, it was a three and a half and
- 28:22Speaker 1: now it's five and a half entirely just based off
- 28:25Speaker 1: of last week's results. So you know that you're getting
- 28:28Speaker 1: value taking the points of the Saints there based on
- 28:30Speaker 1: that number, Like, just look at the number. That number
- 28:33Speaker 1: is just too high. There's no doubt about it. It
- 28:37Speaker 1: would be a pull pork sandwich if you were oh yeah,
- 28:40Speaker 1: cause it's Carolina, that's right exactly. I think it would
- 28:44Speaker 1: be a pull pork sandwich if you were in a
- 28:46Speaker 1: Carolina sandwich. Like if you had played Carolina the previous
- 28:49Speaker 1: week and then you have to play them again next week,
- 28:51Speaker 1: I think that would be That would be the pullpork
- 28:54Speaker 1: sandwich spot. All right, Bill's Dolphins. You know it. It's
- 28:59Speaker 1: gonna be one of my plays, baby, you know what
- 29:01Speaker 1: it's gonna be. So I'll skip that one for now.
- 29:03Speaker 1: Jaguars Texans. This one is a difficult read for me.
- 29:07Speaker 1: We're still in the one PM slate here, Texans down
- 29:09Speaker 1: from a three point favorite to a pick them here,
- 29:12Speaker 1: sixty three percent of tickets, only fifty two percent of
- 29:14Speaker 1: the cash. So I think the three was a look ahead.
- 29:16Speaker 1: But I do think the Texans came out as a
- 29:19Speaker 1: slight favorite here of like one one and a half,
- 29:21Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden, it looks like the
- 29:24Speaker 1: Texans are public for whatever reason. Don't really know why
- 29:27Speaker 1: they would be, because the Jags have the better record,
- 29:29Speaker 1: I don't understand why the public would be on the Texans,
- 29:33Speaker 1: and the public doesn't like bad offenses usually, which definitely
- 29:37Speaker 1: that definitely describes the Texans. Bad offense, good defense, so
- 29:41Speaker 1: they usually fly under the radar. So I thought I
- 29:44Speaker 1: was gonna be leaning towards the Texans in this game,
- 29:46Speaker 1: but the money is saying completely otherwise, so maybe I won't.
- 29:52Speaker 1: This is a revenge spot for Houston though. So Houston
- 29:55Speaker 1: did lose at Jacksonville seventeen to ten earlier in the season,
- 29:58Speaker 1: so a lot of times that second of the divisional matchup,
- 30:02Speaker 1: you do want to look towards the team that lost
- 30:04Speaker 1: the first matchup. But I think it's stronger when you're
- 30:06Speaker 1: getting that team as a road underdog. I think that's
- 30:08Speaker 1: usually the strongest. Like if that team lost at home
- 30:11Speaker 1: in the first matchup, now the road underdog in the
- 30:14Speaker 1: second game, that works out a little bit better. As
- 30:16Speaker 1: far as the scheduling spot here, Jacksonville didn't look very
- 30:20Speaker 1: good really in their win against the Raiders, because I
- 30:23Speaker 1: think people just don't give the Raiders any credit, and
- 30:25Speaker 1: the Jaguars were basically they were a two point conversion
- 30:28Speaker 1: away from losing that game. In overtime to the Raiders,
- 30:31Speaker 1: even though they looked good and that they scored thirty points.
- 30:34Speaker 1: I think the public is actually not going to give
- 30:36Speaker 1: Jacksonville credit for beating the Raiders and almost losing to them,
- 30:40Speaker 1: and they would have lost if it was a two
- 30:41Speaker 1: point if that two point conversion came through for the Raiders.
- 30:44Speaker 1: Although I think the Raiders are actually not quite as
- 30:46Speaker 1: bad as they appear to be based on the record.
- 30:50Speaker 1: I mean, as you saw the Raiders, I mean they
- 30:52Speaker 1: played pretty well on Thursday night, really well, or both
- 30:55Speaker 1: teams just didn't play well. I don't know. However you
- 30:58Speaker 1: look at it, that was one of the most horrendous games,
- 31:00Speaker 1: really offensively that you'll ever see the Broncos and Raiders.
- 31:06Speaker 1: The Raiders should have beaten the Bears at the very least.
- 31:08Speaker 1: I mean, they had that game dominated statistically and lost
- 31:11Speaker 1: that game and some bullshit at the end. Jamison, that
- 31:15Speaker 1: is a correct point. That is a good point. The
- 31:16Speaker 1: Jags are without Travis Hunter and what's beachy? J is it?
- 31:24Speaker 1: Brian Johnson? Is that his name? I forget his name,
- 31:27Speaker 1: whatever his name is. Yeah, So the Jags are down
- 31:30Speaker 1: some of their weapons and of course Hunter plays on
- 31:32Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. So yes, they have lost
- 31:35Speaker 1: some of their players, so but the money's coming in
- 31:39Speaker 1: towards the Jaguars. Here. It is a second straight road
- 31:42Speaker 1: game for the Jaguars, but I don't really hate that
- 31:46Speaker 1: that much because they did have a bye before last week,
- 31:49Speaker 1: so they are somewhat more fresh because they did have
- 31:52Speaker 1: the buye. They didn't look good last week because I
- 31:54Speaker 1: think the public, the public was all over the Jaguars
- 31:57Speaker 1: just because they wanted nothing to do with the Raiders.
- 31:59Speaker 1: So again, I think the public is not going to
- 32:01Speaker 1: put any stock into what Jacksonville did, but I think
- 32:05Speaker 1: they actually will put some stock into Houston playing really
- 32:08Speaker 1: well against Denver and Houston should have won that game,
- 32:10Speaker 1: but we know Stroud got knocked out of the game.
- 32:13Speaker 1: My boys, Stroud, I have one of his jerseys, one
- 32:16Speaker 1: of those cool blue jerseys that are like the Oilers
- 32:20Speaker 1: colors that are just gonna piss off Titans fans. So
- 32:24Speaker 1: shout out to our boy and the Titans fan if
- 32:29Speaker 1: he's ever in the chat, he's gonna be pissed when
- 32:31Speaker 1: I when I wear that Stroud jersey. Houston, though I
- 32:35Speaker 1: mean they played close against Denver, they still could have
- 32:38Speaker 1: won that game, even though Davis Mills came into the game.
- 32:41Speaker 1: Mills is at least experienced, although he's certainly not as
- 32:44Speaker 1: good as Stroud. I think if Stroud was in there,
- 32:46Speaker 1: Houston would have won the game. They blew the game late.
- 32:49Speaker 1: They're winning the game fifteen to seven. Late in the game.
- 32:52Speaker 1: They wound up losing the game in the end. I'm
- 32:55Speaker 1: pissed because I had Houston as one of my picks.
- 32:56Speaker 1: I think they should have won the game. But I
- 32:59Speaker 1: think the public's gonna like what Houston did there because
- 33:01Speaker 1: they almost beat Denver, and Denver is the hype right now. Man.
- 33:06Speaker 1: Everybody's hyping up Denver because Denver's eight and two or whatever.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Everybody's saying they're gonna go to the super Bowl, which
- 33:13Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean, I think Denver's being very,
- 33:15Speaker 1: very overrated right now. They've won a lot of close
- 33:18Speaker 1: games and this was one of them. But maybe Houston
- 33:21Speaker 1: gets a little bit overvalued here. Oh you know what,
- 33:23Speaker 1: I'm an idiot, Obviously, I'm an idiot. The reason why
- 33:26Speaker 1: the line moved from three to a Pickham obviously is
- 33:29Speaker 1: because Stroud is still out. I don't know what I'm
- 33:31Speaker 1: doing like, oh yeah, Brian, yeah, Brian, uh yeah, Thomas junior.
- 33:37Speaker 1: And that's what that's what it is. Yeah, correct, I
- 33:39Speaker 1: don't know what I was. I was I thinking it
- 33:41Speaker 1: was Johnson. Yeah, Brian Thomas junior. Okay, but yes, the
- 33:48Speaker 1: reason why the line moved to a Pickham is because
- 33:50Speaker 1: Stroud is out, so Davis Mills is coming in. Yes,
- 33:54Speaker 1: he's at least experienced, although he's not great, although the
- 33:57Speaker 1: Texans have not really relied on quarterback much this year,
- 34:00Speaker 1: so I don't know. I mean, the books are saying
- 34:02Speaker 1: it's a three point down grade, which isn't that much
- 34:05Speaker 1: for a quarterback like drop off from Stroud to Mills.
- 34:08Speaker 1: You'd think it would actually be more. And it did
- 34:10Speaker 1: drop the total down from forty one and a half
- 34:12Speaker 1: to thirty seven and a half. So we have a
- 34:14Speaker 1: low total here in this one man, And we have
- 34:16Speaker 1: a low total at thirty eight in the Saints Panthers
- 34:19Speaker 1: game and thirty seven and a half in Brown's Jets.
- 34:21Speaker 1: So those games look like they're gonna be ugly, ugly games.
- 34:26Speaker 1: But this game, the money, like the market reed is
- 34:28Speaker 1: still saying the Jags here in this game, though, and
- 34:32Speaker 1: maybe but one thing that I will say about Houston
- 34:34Speaker 1: is it's gonna be the injured player spot because Stroud
- 34:37Speaker 1: got knocked out of the last game. So this is
- 34:39Speaker 1: gonna be the first game that Mills starts this season
- 34:43Speaker 1: at least, so you know that I always talk about this.
- 34:45Speaker 1: In the first game where you have the injured quarterback,
- 34:48Speaker 1: the team usually steps up their level of play because
- 34:50Speaker 1: they know they have to like show up for that game, right,
- 34:54Speaker 1: Like they have to put in a bigger amount of
- 34:56Speaker 1: effort to win that game. But there is still an
- 34:59Speaker 1: issue with Houston, and that is that they're coming off
- 35:01Speaker 1: that close game against Denver, so they could be in
- 35:03Speaker 1: a little bit of a hangover spot after that. And
- 35:05Speaker 1: Denver their defense is very physical, so is Houston's. That
- 35:09Speaker 1: was a very punishing game. And by the way, I
- 35:11Speaker 1: think teams after they played Denver, I'm pretty sure those
- 35:14Speaker 1: teams are like one in eight against the spread on
- 35:16Speaker 1: the season or something like that. So it's not good.
- 35:19Speaker 1: By the way, if you guys want to guess in
- 35:22Speaker 1: the chat, there's one team this season where teams that
- 35:27Speaker 1: played that team the next week after playing that team,
- 35:31Speaker 1: the teams have not covered the spread at all. The
- 35:33Speaker 1: teams are zero to eight after they have played this team.
- 35:36Speaker 1: If you want to try to guess which team that is,
- 35:39Speaker 1: and I'm laughing for reasons, you'll probably be able to
- 35:41Speaker 1: guess which team that is. But Denver is close. Teams
- 35:46Speaker 1: that have played Denver, they'll only covered the spread, I
- 35:48Speaker 1: believe once. You can check me if I'm wrong about
- 35:51Speaker 1: that in the next game. So that is a concern.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I've spent too much time looking at this one game,
- 35:55Speaker 1: which I'm not even gonna give it out a play on,
- 35:57Speaker 1: but the money is saying Jaguars right now. I'm not
- 36:00Speaker 1: really gonna disagree with it, but we'll see. I'm gonna
- 36:04Speaker 1: give out a play on Ravens and Vikings, which hopefully
- 36:08Speaker 1: that's gonna be one that works out for us. We'll see, Jamison,
- 36:12Speaker 1: you are correct, sir, The Jets are the correct answer
- 36:16Speaker 1: to that teams the week after they face the Jets.
- 36:21Speaker 1: No team has covered the spread this entire season, and
- 36:24Speaker 1: there is no team in that spot right now because
- 36:28Speaker 1: the Jets had a bye last week, so no team
- 36:30Speaker 1: is in the is in the post Jets spot this week. Yeah,
- 36:36Speaker 1: it's just insane that that's the case. I don't even
- 36:38Speaker 1: know why, because the Jets defense hasn't been that good
- 36:40Speaker 1: this year, and usually they are pretty good, all right, Yeah,
- 36:44Speaker 1: Ravens Vikings, I'm skipping it for now. I'll give it
- 36:46Speaker 1: out a play on that one. Patriots Buccaneers. This is
- 36:49Speaker 1: gonna be a big game, man. The Bucks are two
- 36:51Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. It looks like it's headed
- 36:53Speaker 1: towards three. So if you do like the Bucks, you
- 36:55Speaker 1: got to try to get it at two and a
- 36:56Speaker 1: half or maybe money line it four taking sixty nine
- 37:01Speaker 1: percent of the cash on Tampa, so the money is
- 37:03Speaker 1: somewhat coming in on Tampa. Charles, you hate the Jets.
- 37:07Speaker 1: I kind of like them because I've played on them
- 37:09Speaker 1: six times this year and those plays have gone four
- 37:12Speaker 1: and two. So I don't have really anything bad to
- 37:14Speaker 1: say about the Jets this year. Last year I did
- 37:17Speaker 1: because I think I have had more losses than wins
- 37:21Speaker 1: on the Jets last year. Now, New England and Tampa Bay,
- 37:24Speaker 1: New England, they're they're one of the hype trains right now.
- 37:28Speaker 1: I mean it's New England and Denver. Everybody's just anointed
- 37:30Speaker 1: in these two teams right now. And if you look
- 37:33Speaker 1: at New England's schedule, it's been really really fucking easy, dude.
- 37:37Speaker 1: I mean, look at their wins. Their wins are against Miami, Carolina, Buffalo. Yeah,
- 37:41Speaker 1: that was a good win on the road. Fine, but
- 37:43Speaker 1: then New Orleans, Tennessee, Cleveland, and then Atlanta. I mean
- 37:47Speaker 1: that's an okay win. But still, I mean, this has
- 37:49Speaker 1: been a very, very weak schedule. They're going back on
- 37:52Speaker 1: on the road again to face Tampa, and Tampa is
- 37:54Speaker 1: gonna be the best team that they've faced since Buffalo,
- 37:56Speaker 1: even though you know, I have my gripes with Tampa
- 38:00Speaker 1: eating that, like well basically that I think that they're
- 38:02Speaker 1: all overrated because they win a lot of one score games.
- 38:07Speaker 1: But the Patriots are probably overhyped right now, man, I
- 38:10Speaker 1: think Tampa is a little bit less hyped. Patriots are
- 38:12Speaker 1: coming into this game on a win streak, still looking
- 38:15Speaker 1: pretty good, even though they didn't cover last week. I
- 38:17Speaker 1: think beating Atlanta still makes them look pretty good. Everybody
- 38:22Speaker 1: loves Drake May right now, and this, by the way,
- 38:24Speaker 1: is gonna be May versus Mayfield on May's Field on
- 38:28Speaker 1: the Mayfield and May in the State of the Mayflower.
- 38:35Speaker 1: A lot of stuff going on, but this is like
- 38:36Speaker 1: a quarterback MVP battle type of thing. Men where you
- 38:39Speaker 1: have like you have like Mahomes and Allen at the top.
- 38:43Speaker 1: I think right for the MVP odds right now, and
- 38:45Speaker 1: then for a while it was Baker Mayfield was in third,
- 38:48Speaker 1: and now Drake may has overtaken him in third. So
- 38:51Speaker 1: I actually think that Mayfield might have a little bit
- 38:54Speaker 1: extra motivation here, man, because Drake may overtook him in
- 38:57Speaker 1: the MVP odds. If the following that because Drake may
- 39:01Speaker 1: is excusing Baker Mayfield has kind of fallen off a
- 39:03Speaker 1: little bit. Their names are so close to the same, man,
- 39:07Speaker 1: Drake er Mayfield, I don't know, Bake may That's that's
- 39:13Speaker 1: when you smoke pot in the month of May. But yeah, Tampa,
- 39:20Speaker 1: they look less impressive recently because they lost to Detroit,
- 39:23Speaker 1: although everybody knows Detroit's good, but still Tampa only put
- 39:26Speaker 1: up nine points in that game, and then beating New Orleans.
- 39:29Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna care that Tampa Bay beat New Orleans. Nobody's
- 39:32Speaker 1: gonna give them any credit for that. Tampa went into
- 39:34Speaker 1: the buy off of that, so yes, technically a guess
- 39:37Speaker 1: they went into the buy in a good note facing
- 39:39Speaker 1: New Orleans. But I think they're gonna use that bye
- 39:42Speaker 1: to prepare for this, man, Like, I don't necessarily think
- 39:45Speaker 1: that they went into that by thinking like, oh, hell yeah,
- 39:48Speaker 1: we're so good right now because we beat New Orleans.
- 39:50Speaker 1: I don't really think so. So I don't think that
- 39:52Speaker 1: buye is gonna really be like a momentum stopper necessarily
- 39:55Speaker 1: for this team or negative. So I agree with the
- 39:58Speaker 1: marketing this one. I would slightly lean to Tampa bayo.
- 40:00Speaker 1: This is a difficult read, but Tampa's faced the more
- 40:03Speaker 1: difficult schedules so far. Man, There's no doubt about it.
- 40:06Speaker 1: Like they also beat Atlanta on the road, although I
- 40:08Speaker 1: think they should have lost that game. They played Houston, Philadelphia, Seattle,
- 40:12Speaker 1: San Francisco, Detroit, much more difficult schedule for Tampa Bay.
- 40:15Speaker 1: I think Mayfield might be a little bit more motivated
- 40:18Speaker 1: here because may has overtaken him, and Mayfield's the more
- 40:21Speaker 1: long standing quarterback. That might be like, hey, take a
- 40:24Speaker 1: step back, new guy. So I agree Tampa. Plus, I
- 40:29Speaker 1: think the buy might actually help them a little bit here,
- 40:31Speaker 1: So I'll agree with the money in that one. With
- 40:33Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay side Giants and Bears Giants, I'm not
- 40:39Speaker 1: gonna give out a play on this, but I do
- 40:40Speaker 1: lean to the Giants in this one, even though the
- 40:42Speaker 1: market looks like it's saying Bears right now from three
- 40:44Speaker 1: and a half to four and a half. I don't
- 40:46Speaker 1: like the spot for the Bears sixty five percent take
- 40:49Speaker 1: it seventy three percent of the cash on the Bears
- 40:51Speaker 1: for now, But come game time tomorrow, you might see
- 40:54Speaker 1: the money start coming back in on the Giants. Here,
- 40:56Speaker 1: it's a it's not really a high total of forty
- 40:59Speaker 1: six and a half, and it's sort of trending downward
- 41:02Speaker 1: with money coming in on the under. I think the
- 41:03Speaker 1: three and a half maybe was the look ahead on
- 41:06Speaker 1: this game, So I don't know the lookhads up right now,
- 41:08Speaker 1: but usually on pregame the opener listed it was usually
- 41:11Speaker 1: actually the look ahead. So the Bears got bumped up
- 41:14Speaker 1: a little bit I think for last week. And what
- 41:16Speaker 1: did we see the Bears do last week? Yeah, the
- 41:18Speaker 1: Bears actually looked pretty good, even though it was against Cincinnati.
- 41:21Speaker 1: I think people are giving Cincinnati more credit now because
- 41:24Speaker 1: their offense looks pretty capable under Joe Flacco. So I
- 41:28Speaker 1: think people are actually gonna give the Bears a lot
- 41:30Speaker 1: of credit for that win because also because they won
- 41:33Speaker 1: forty seven to forty two, and that was crazy. With
- 41:36Speaker 1: the Bears blowing like a multiple score lead late in
- 41:39Speaker 1: the game, Cincinnati made a multiple score comeback took the lead,
- 41:43Speaker 1: and then the Bears basically had no shot to come
- 41:45Speaker 1: back and win after that, and they still did. And
- 41:48Speaker 1: the Bears actually, well, actually they kind of did because
- 41:50Speaker 1: they only needed a field goal, but they scored a
- 41:52Speaker 1: touchdown on like a sixty something yard pass which covered
- 41:56Speaker 1: the spread, which they wouldn't have done if they'd kicked
- 41:58Speaker 1: a field goal. They would have only won two and
- 42:01Speaker 1: not covered the two and a half. So I got
- 42:02Speaker 1: the pick right, at least in my pick comes with
- 42:05Speaker 1: the Bears minus two and a half should have been
- 42:09Speaker 1: easier because they were winning the whole game. But I
- 42:10Speaker 1: think the Bears are gonna get a lot of credit
- 42:13Speaker 1: for that win, beating Cincinnati like that, scoring a ton
- 42:16Speaker 1: of points. But I don't think the Bears are this
- 42:18Speaker 1: good man. I mean, they caught Dallas in a good spot.
- 42:21Speaker 1: That was their first win of the season, and we
- 42:23Speaker 1: know Dallas's defense is just horrendous, So I don't give
- 42:26Speaker 1: the Bears that much credit for that win. As I
- 42:29Speaker 1: pointed out, the Bears absolutely should have lost to the Raiders.
- 42:33Speaker 1: Raiders outstated them in the game. Bears blocked a kick
- 42:38Speaker 1: at the end of the game as well. It was
- 42:39Speaker 1: just ridiculous that the Bears came back and won that one,
- 42:42Speaker 1: beating Washington. Washington has just struggled this year, man, And
- 42:46Speaker 1: of course they can't stay healthy now either. But and
- 42:49Speaker 1: it was a good spot kind of you know, that
- 42:51Speaker 1: revenge spot for Caleb Williams against Jaydon Daniels after last year.
- 42:54Speaker 1: So I don't put that much weight into that. And
- 42:56Speaker 1: then the Bears beating New Orleans and Cincinnati. Again, they're
- 43:00Speaker 1: not that good. They have no defense right now or
- 43:04Speaker 1: ever really, and beating New Orleans obviously is not a
- 43:07Speaker 1: big deal except that I gave out a losing play
- 43:10Speaker 1: on the Saints in that game. Of course I did,
- 43:14Speaker 1: so I do it. I'm gonna continue to say the
- 43:15Speaker 1: Bears are not as good as their record looks. Oh
- 43:18Speaker 1: and by the way, so they're coming up that really
- 43:20Speaker 1: high score performance against Cincinnati. Who do they play next?
- 43:23Speaker 1: By the way? Oh yeah, they play the Minnesota Vikings,
- 43:26Speaker 1: which is a big divisional matchup. I mean, every one
- 43:29Speaker 1: of these teams in the division is separated by like
- 43:32Speaker 1: basically one one and a half games. So that's a
- 43:35Speaker 1: big game coming up against Minnesota. So I think the
- 43:38Speaker 1: Bears might overlook the Giants here. Man, as bad as
- 43:41Speaker 1: the Giants have been playing, I know the Giants are
- 43:43Speaker 1: owned five on the road, but you don't need the
- 43:45Speaker 1: Giants to win to get this cover. You need them
- 43:48Speaker 1: to just come within the number. Although I know it's
- 43:50Speaker 1: kind of a small ish number, but they're getting at
- 43:52Speaker 1: least above a field goal here. Giants didn't do well
- 43:56Speaker 1: last week against San Francisco. San Francisco is still a
- 43:58Speaker 1: pretty solid team. Now the Giants are going out on
- 44:02Speaker 1: the road to face Chicago, but they're actually stepping down
- 44:05Speaker 1: in class to do so, because look at how much
- 44:07Speaker 1: more difficult the giants schedule has been the Chicago's. I mean,
- 44:11Speaker 1: look at the Giants some of their losses. Man, yes,
- 44:13Speaker 1: I know they lost to Dallas or Chicago beat them.
- 44:16Speaker 1: They lost to Washington where Chicago beat them. So the
- 44:19Speaker 1: public might do that transit of property thing like, oh
- 44:22Speaker 1: my god, look at all these teams that Chicago beat
- 44:25Speaker 1: the Giants. This is so easy, right, But the Giants
- 44:28Speaker 1: also played Kansas City the Chargers own. They also lost
- 44:32Speaker 1: to New Orleans. By the way, some more transitive shit
- 44:35Speaker 1: going on, where the Giants have three common opponents with
- 44:39Speaker 1: the Bears, and the Bears are three and zero in
- 44:41Speaker 1: those games, so the public will almost certainly be on
- 44:44Speaker 1: the Bears for those reasons. But yes, the Giants have
- 44:46Speaker 1: played Kansas City, the Chargers, Philadelphia twice already, Denver, and
- 44:50Speaker 1: San Francisco and those four games that I just mentioned
- 44:53Speaker 1: were their last four games. So the Giants have played
- 44:55Speaker 1: a very difficult schedule, especially recently anow they're coming up
- 45:00Speaker 1: all those very difficult games. They're actually stepping way down
- 45:02Speaker 1: in class to face Chicago. So after the Giants face
- 45:05Speaker 1: that gauntlet, this is gonna be an easier game for them,
- 45:08Speaker 1: I think. Man, So I do like the Giants, plus
- 45:11Speaker 1: the points in that game, I think it will be
- 45:13Speaker 1: a little bit of a bounce back. I think the
- 45:15Speaker 1: spot is worse for our Chicago there. So those are
- 45:18Speaker 1: my thoughts on that one. All right, Cardinals, Seahawks, this one.
- 45:23Speaker 1: I do kind of like the Cardinals as we move
- 45:25Speaker 1: into the four PM slate. Don't have this on my
- 45:29Speaker 1: card here, don't have the Cards on my card, But
- 45:34Speaker 1: I do like the Cardinals. I think this is one
- 45:35Speaker 1: of the better plays this week, So my stronger leans
- 45:38Speaker 1: at least you can kind of tell already that are
- 45:41Speaker 1: not plays on my card or the Saints plus the
- 45:43Speaker 1: points Giants, I guess, and Cardinals. I would say Saints first,
- 45:49Speaker 1: then Cardinals, then Giants, and then I guess Buccaneers and
- 45:54Speaker 1: the other ones. I am just really fucked up trying
- 45:56Speaker 1: to try to read the rest of the games I've
- 45:58Speaker 1: talked about. Seahawks are a seven point favorite here. I
- 46:01Speaker 1: think the look Ahead was a six point favorite here
- 46:03Speaker 1: for the Seahawks. Eighty percent of the tickets eighty three
- 46:05Speaker 1: percent of the cash on the Seahawks for now, but
- 46:07Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see some of the cash start
- 46:10Speaker 1: moving towards the Cardinals. I've heard multiple professional opinions on
- 46:13Speaker 1: the Cardinals here, and it mostly has to do with
- 46:16Speaker 1: fading the Seahawks at the peak of their market value,
- 46:19Speaker 1: which I agree is the case. I just have a
- 46:22Speaker 1: few hesitations with Arizona here, but this is one of
- 46:26Speaker 1: those spots where it is one of those avenging divisional
- 46:30Speaker 1: road underdogs here, because you know, Seattle went into Arizona
- 46:33Speaker 1: on Thursday night earlier this season and they beat Arizona
- 46:36Speaker 1: in a close game. So Arizona is an avenging Divisional
- 46:41Speaker 1: road underdog here, so they're getting a lot of points
- 46:43Speaker 1: on the road now in a revenge spot against US Seattle.
- 46:46Speaker 1: So that does make it a pretty good spot for Arizona.
- 46:48Speaker 1: As far as that's concerned. For Seattle, I think I
- 46:52Speaker 1: still think they're a bit overrated at six and two. Man,
- 46:55Speaker 1: I think at some point you're gonna see them regress
- 46:57Speaker 1: a little bit. And they're coming off absolutely blasting Washington
- 47:01Speaker 1: in primetime on Sunday night, and I think people at
- 47:04Speaker 1: this point might actually give Seattle more credit for that.
- 47:07Speaker 1: Then they're gonna give Arizona for beating Dallas on Monday night.
- 47:12Speaker 1: And Seattle did this in ridiculous fashion. I mean, they
- 47:14Speaker 1: were winning the game thirty eight to seven. Late in
- 47:16Speaker 1: the game they won thirty eight to fourteen, and very stupidly.
- 47:20Speaker 1: Dan Quinn should be fired for this. Man. He left
- 47:23Speaker 1: Jaydon Daniels in the game, and as you saw, he
- 47:26Speaker 1: got hurt in a game that was totally out of reach.
- 47:30Speaker 1: It was a thirty eight to seven game. He was
- 47:32Speaker 1: still in the game, he got hit, he bent his
- 47:35Speaker 1: elbow in the wrong direction. His non throwing elbow at
- 47:38Speaker 1: least has left, I believe, but dislocated elbow, and he's
- 47:41Speaker 1: gonna be out for a while now. Man and I
- 47:44Speaker 1: had been saying for a while that that was gonna happen,
- 47:46Speaker 1: just because there were way too many parallels with Jaydon
- 47:49Speaker 1: Daniels and Robert Griffin. The third where this gets really
- 47:52Speaker 1: really freaky, by the way, because yes, they're both black quarterbacks,
- 47:56Speaker 1: they both have like a rushing element to their game.
- 47:58Speaker 1: They were both on Washington, similar style quarterbacks. Now they
- 48:02Speaker 1: both get seriously injured. But not only that, but they
- 48:05Speaker 1: both got injured in the same stadium. They both got
- 48:08Speaker 1: injured on the same yard line in the stadium, and
- 48:12Speaker 1: they both got injured against the same opponent, the Seattle Seahawks.
- 48:17Speaker 1: So how insane is that? Like, is that a coincidence
- 48:22Speaker 1: or are we living in a simulation. I mean, it's
- 48:24Speaker 1: absolutely insane that every one of those things lined up,
- 48:28Speaker 1: and it would have It wouldn't have happened if Dan
- 48:30Speaker 1: Quinn just didn't have Jaydon Daniels in the game. Absolutely ridiculous. Yeah,
- 48:34Speaker 1: the Avengers end game for Arizona here, there's probably some
- 48:41Speaker 1: voodoo dolls of RG three and Jaydon Daniels out there,
- 48:45Speaker 1: but I still think Seattle's in the public ei they're
- 48:48Speaker 1: gonna get more credit for scoring almost forty points against
- 48:51Speaker 1: Washington in a primetime game. And by the way, Seattle
- 48:54Speaker 1: might actually overlook Arizona because they did already beat Arizona
- 48:57Speaker 1: on the road, and Arizona's at the automn of this division,
- 49:01Speaker 1: and Seattle does have the Rams up next, and of
- 49:03Speaker 1: course the Rams are right there with Seattle, I think
- 49:05Speaker 1: also at six and two, So that's a huge game
- 49:08Speaker 1: between Seattle and the Rams because those teams are tied
- 49:11Speaker 1: in first place right now in the division. So there
- 49:14Speaker 1: are a lot of reasons why Seattle might overlook Arizona. Here.
- 49:18Speaker 1: Arizona's on a little bit of a shorter week because
- 49:20Speaker 1: they play on Monday, so that does worry me a
- 49:22Speaker 1: little bit, but they did have a bye before that,
- 49:24Speaker 1: so they are still a bit rested. You could argue
- 49:28Speaker 1: they're gonna be in a little bit of a letdown
- 49:29Speaker 1: spot though, because beating Dallas is still a pretty big
- 49:32Speaker 1: deal in primetime on the road. So that's kind of
- 49:35Speaker 1: my one hesitation that I do have with Arizona here.
- 49:38Speaker 1: Everything else seems to line up fairly nicely for Arizona though,
- 49:41Speaker 1: and Arizona, by the way, they're getting seven points. Look
- 49:44Speaker 1: at their losses this year. They've lost by one, three, one, four,
- 49:49Speaker 1: and four, So they have not lost any game by
- 49:51Speaker 1: more than four points all seasons. So even though they
- 49:54Speaker 1: have a bunch of losses, they've covered this number in
- 49:56Speaker 1: every single game this season. They have not lost by
- 49:59Speaker 1: more than f points and they're getting seven in this game.
- 50:02Speaker 1: So another reason to look towards Arizona here. Again, my
- 50:06Speaker 1: one hesitation is just that debatably could be in a
- 50:09Speaker 1: letdown spot off of Dallas, but otherwise I do like it.
- 50:13Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett, I believe, will continue to be their quarterback,
- 50:16Speaker 1: and I think that's better for Arizona. If Kyler Murray
- 50:19Speaker 1: came back, I would definitely not want to be on
- 50:21Speaker 1: Arizona because I think that would throw like a wrench
- 50:24Speaker 1: into their team chemistry that they're building here. I actually
- 50:27Speaker 1: think he's not even as good as Brissette at this point.
- 50:29Speaker 1: As ridiculous as that sounds, I think Brissette might actually
- 50:33Speaker 1: be the better quarterback here at this point. He can
- 50:35Speaker 1: at least see over his line men because he's taller
- 50:38Speaker 1: than Murray. But Brissette, Yeah, I mean, he's a veteran.
- 50:43Speaker 1: He doesn't turn the ball over that much. He's pretty solid.
- 50:46Speaker 1: So yeah, I do like how that linees up for Arizona.
- 50:49Speaker 1: That is definitely one of the stronger plays for me. Actually,
- 50:51Speaker 1: maybe even stronger than the Saints, to be honest. So
- 50:54Speaker 1: I do like Arizona hasn't made my card though. Lions
- 50:58Speaker 1: and Washington this game, man, it's gonna be weird. Top
- 51:04Speaker 1: and Raven. We'll go back on NDS and we'll talk
- 51:06Speaker 1: about They have asked me to come on and talk
- 51:08Speaker 1: about sports stuff, so maybe I will. All Right, I'm
- 51:13Speaker 1: gonna try to lower my voice a little bit here, man,
- 51:15Speaker 1: because I was just I don't know why. I just
- 51:17Speaker 1: tend to talk very very loud because I get excited here.
- 51:20Speaker 1: But let's let's go chill here and we'll see if
- 51:23Speaker 1: I can do it. Lions and Washington here, man, in
- 51:26Speaker 1: this game the Lions, although this seems like it makes
- 51:30Speaker 1: it more boring if I talk that way. The Lions
- 51:33Speaker 1: are up from a three and a half point favorite
- 51:35Speaker 1: to an eight point favorite here, but this is obviously
- 51:40Speaker 1: because jayde Daniels is hurt. Okay, So yeah, the Lions
- 51:43Speaker 1: are Now they were gonna be a three and a
- 51:44Speaker 1: half point favorite. Now they're an eight point favorite. So
- 51:47Speaker 1: do I think it's an overreaction? I do, even though
- 51:50Speaker 1: I know I said that when when Daniels was hurt before,
- 51:54Speaker 1: which was like two weeks ago, the line moved like
- 51:57Speaker 1: almost the line moved a little bit more than this
- 52:00Speaker 1: on the Chiefs on that Monday night game, moved like
- 52:02Speaker 1: six points, and I thought that was way too much
- 52:04Speaker 1: of a move. And yeah, Washington still lost the game
- 52:07Speaker 1: and didn't cover, So yeah, I know, it wasn't that
- 52:10Speaker 1: good for Washington. Now we're going We've got Marcus Mariota
- 52:14Speaker 1: in this game again, and he's also my fantasy quarterback
- 52:17Speaker 1: this week with Mahomes on buy, So isn't that just great?
- 52:21Speaker 1: But I don't think Mariota is that bad, Like he
- 52:26Speaker 1: is a down grade, but I don't think he's that
- 52:27Speaker 1: much of a down grade. So I do think this
- 52:29Speaker 1: line is still a little bit of an overreaction on
- 52:32Speaker 1: the Lions. For that reason. Mariota he's used to playing
- 52:36Speaker 1: because Daniels has been hurt multiple times in the last
- 52:38Speaker 1: two years. So Mariota, I mean, we know he's also
- 52:40Speaker 1: a veteran. He's been around for a while, so he's
- 52:42Speaker 1: not gonna be intimidated or anything like that. Hasn't looked
- 52:46Speaker 1: good so far this year really though. Mariota Lions are
- 52:51Speaker 1: very public nine tickets, ninety three percent of the cash
- 52:54Speaker 1: on the Lions, so the money it looks like it's
- 52:58Speaker 1: slightly in coming in on the line. But they're a
- 53:00Speaker 1: very very public road favorite, and I think of too
- 53:04Speaker 1: high a number. So my read would be based on that.
- 53:08Speaker 1: I would start leaning to maybe taking the points with Washington,
- 53:11Speaker 1: but the way that this scheduling spot sets up, I
- 53:14Speaker 1: actually think favors the Lions. So we know the Lions
- 53:17Speaker 1: just lost last week to Minnesota, and that was one
- 53:19Speaker 1: of my players last week on Minnesota that was a win,
- 53:23Speaker 1: And what I said going into that game was the
- 53:25Speaker 1: Lions had a big win over Tampa Bay that went
- 53:27Speaker 1: into a bye. I thought that buy was going to
- 53:29Speaker 1: disrupt their momentum. And after playing Minnesota, who the Lions
- 53:33Speaker 1: had owned over the last few years, they hadn't lost
- 53:35Speaker 1: to Minnesota, and I think I don't know multiple games
- 53:39Speaker 1: over multiple years, they had this game up next because
- 53:42Speaker 1: I think they had this game circled against Washington because
- 53:45Speaker 1: you remember what happened last year. Washington came into Detroit
- 53:49Speaker 1: in the playoffs and Detroit was the top seed I
- 53:52Speaker 1: believe in the NFC in the playoffs, and Washington beat
- 53:55Speaker 1: them as a double digit underdog. So you know, the
- 53:59Speaker 1: Lions had this game, circle man, because Washington ended their
- 54:02Speaker 1: season last year and it was a game the Lions
- 54:04Speaker 1: obviously felt they should have won because they were the
- 54:06Speaker 1: big favorite and who was this newcomer to come in
- 54:09Speaker 1: and beat them, right, So I don't want to fade
- 54:12Speaker 1: Detroit in this game for that reason, because I think
- 54:15Speaker 1: they're gonna be in a bounce back spot because of
- 54:17Speaker 1: that loss last week, and I think part of the
- 54:19Speaker 1: reason why they lost it was because they were looking
- 54:21Speaker 1: ahead to this game because this game does definitely matter
- 54:24Speaker 1: to them. Washington didn't look good either though last week obviously,
- 54:30Speaker 1: as I just said, they got absolutely trounced by Seattle.
- 54:32Speaker 1: So the public doesn't want anything to do with Washington here.
- 54:35Speaker 1: And yes, technically they're back in an injured player theory
- 54:38Speaker 1: spot again, which is what I was just alluding to,
- 54:40Speaker 1: the line moved I think too much. Again, you know,
- 54:43Speaker 1: the team's probably gonna try to step it up given
- 54:46Speaker 1: the Daniels is out against you might see a better
- 54:48Speaker 1: effort from Washington for that reason. So a lot of
- 54:53Speaker 1: conflicting factors here, man. I mean, line value wise, I
- 54:56Speaker 1: do think that taking Washington is the right side, but
- 55:00Speaker 1: situation wise, I would say laying the points of the
- 55:03Speaker 1: Lions might actually be the right side. I think instead
- 55:07Speaker 1: of doing any of that, I think maybe going Lions
- 55:11Speaker 1: over their team total mat actually be the right move
- 55:13Speaker 1: in this game. I think it's at twenty nine and
- 55:15Speaker 1: a half and the Lions I believe, have averaged thirty
- 55:18Speaker 1: points a game this year, so that might be the
- 55:20Speaker 1: better way to do it. Man, Because Washington doesn't have
- 55:22Speaker 1: a good defense. You got to expect the Lions are
- 55:25Speaker 1: gonna come out focus here and want to drill Washington
- 55:28Speaker 1: because Washington beat them last year in that playoff game.
- 55:31Speaker 1: So maybe Lions over the team total would be the
- 55:34Speaker 1: better way to go. Yes, Jacoby Shaddox is the singer
- 55:38Speaker 1: of Poppa Roach. Definitely not the only two. There's Jacoby Ellsbury,
- 55:44Speaker 1: former outfielder on the Red Sox and the Yankees Boom,
- 55:52Speaker 1: and there are definitely more than that. They're not coming
- 55:56Speaker 1: to mine right now, but yeah, definitely at least those two.
- 56:01Speaker 1: The puppa Roach singer, by the way, goes by Kobe
- 56:04Speaker 1: Dix as well. That's his A stage namory shortens all
- 56:08Speaker 1: of it block punt. I didn't see it. You might
- 56:11Speaker 1: be able to see it in my background here. Hopefully
- 56:14Speaker 1: I don't get nuked from YouTube for illegally, you know,
- 56:17Speaker 1: rebroadcasting the game. I don't think you can't even see
- 56:20Speaker 1: it though, so because the screen is blocking it my
- 56:24Speaker 1: screen share all right. Finishing off the four pm slate
- 56:31Speaker 1: here or four to twenty five pm here, Rams forty
- 56:34Speaker 1: nine ers. This game is hard to get a gauge
- 56:36Speaker 1: on because it looks like it looked like the Rams
- 56:38Speaker 1: are going to be a three point favorite, and now
- 56:40Speaker 1: they're a six point favorite. And I don't know if
- 56:42Speaker 1: really that's just based off of last week or not,
- 56:45Speaker 1: because why would it have moved that much. Both these
- 56:47Speaker 1: teams looked okay last week. They both won last week,
- 56:51Speaker 1: so I don't know. Man, fifty six percent ticket, sixty
- 56:54Speaker 1: percent of the cash on the Rams. The money's coming
- 56:56Speaker 1: in on the Rams now. One situational angle we do
- 57:00Speaker 1: have here is the Rams did lose earlier in the
- 57:02Speaker 1: season at home to the forty nine Ers, and the
- 57:05Speaker 1: Rams are about a nine point favorite in that game
- 57:07Speaker 1: because of all the Niners injuries. So the forty nine ers, though,
- 57:11Speaker 1: they went in and they were able to beat them
- 57:13Speaker 1: out right, man. So this is a little bit of
- 57:14Speaker 1: a revenge spot for the Rams, and I think the
- 57:16Speaker 1: Rams have been good against the forty nine ers over
- 57:20Speaker 1: the past couple of seasons. The Rams have kind of
- 57:22Speaker 1: had their number, I'm pretty sure. So some of these
- 57:25Speaker 1: things do lead you to maybe look towards the Rams here.
- 57:27Speaker 1: But I do I want to lay six points on
- 57:29Speaker 1: the road. No, I don't. But if you're forced to
- 57:33Speaker 1: have to pick this game, maybe the Rams do make
- 57:35Speaker 1: sense because you know the Rams are up on the
- 57:39Speaker 1: on the line here a little bit, or excuse me,
- 57:41Speaker 1: the Rams are not getting the cash a little bit
- 57:43Speaker 1: here in some of the situation looks like it does
- 57:45Speaker 1: favor the Rams to some extent. Here. Rams are gonna
- 57:50Speaker 1: want a little bit of revenge I think from that loss.
- 57:52Speaker 1: But by the way, if if the Rams were a
- 57:54Speaker 1: nine point favorite in that game, which I thought that
- 57:56Speaker 1: number was too high, the line in this game should
- 57:59Speaker 1: probably Even though the Rams really don't get much for
- 58:01Speaker 1: home field, they probably get about one and a half,
- 58:04Speaker 1: but then you flip through the forty nine ers would
- 58:05Speaker 1: probably get about two. So this line should probably be
- 58:08Speaker 1: a little bit lower than this, although it's still in
- 58:11Speaker 1: no man's land. I mean, it should probably be somewhere
- 58:14Speaker 1: in like the five range maybe, although I guess this
- 58:17Speaker 1: is close to me where it should be. The scheduling
- 58:20Speaker 1: spot I think does actually set up a little bit
- 58:22Speaker 1: better for the Rams, even though they did have a
- 58:24Speaker 1: blowout win last week, so the public might kind of
- 58:26Speaker 1: be on them a little bit. The public might also
- 58:30Speaker 1: think it's tempting to take the points of the Niners, though,
- 58:32Speaker 1: because the Niners did win out right at the Rams,
- 58:34Speaker 1: and the public might be saying, hey, the Niners are
- 58:36Speaker 1: only a half game behind the Rams here, and you're
- 58:39Speaker 1: giving them that many points at home. So the public's
- 58:42Speaker 1: not that heavy on the Rams here. They're not gonna
- 58:44Speaker 1: put much weight into the Rams beating New Orleans, I
- 58:47Speaker 1: don't think, or beating Baltimore without Lamar Jackson or beating
- 58:50Speaker 1: Jacksonville really necessarily. But yeah, the Rams, I mean they
- 58:55Speaker 1: haven't faced they I mean they haven't faced necessarily that
- 58:58Speaker 1: difficult of a schedule, I guess, and some their wins
- 59:00Speaker 1: are not great. I mean, their other wins are against Tennessee.
- 59:04Speaker 1: Houston at least has a good deepfense, and then India
- 59:06Speaker 1: is at least fairly good, So that was a decent win.
- 59:10Speaker 1: Rams probably not as good as their record looks though.
- 59:14Speaker 1: But the Rams, they're not really traveling that far. They're
- 59:17Speaker 1: only going up the coast to northern California. So the
- 59:19Speaker 1: Rams have actually been back home for a week because
- 59:22Speaker 1: they came, well actually for multiple weeks because they were
- 59:24Speaker 1: in London I believe they had to buy and then
- 59:27Speaker 1: last week they played at home, so they're staying in
- 59:29Speaker 1: California in the Pacific time zone. And that is not
- 59:32Speaker 1: the case with San Francisco, as San Francisco actually has
- 59:36Speaker 1: played two road games in a row and haven't had
- 59:38Speaker 1: a buy yet I believe. Yeah, San Francisco's by doesn't
- 59:42Speaker 1: come until week fourteen. So San Francisco they actually played
- 59:45Speaker 1: four road games in five weeks, and that included at
- 59:49Speaker 1: La then at Tampa Bay. Then they came all the
- 59:51Speaker 1: way back to the Pacific coast, so two cross country
- 59:55Speaker 1: trips there. Then they had to go after playing at
- 59:57Speaker 1: lant at home, they had to go back out on
- 59:59Speaker 1: the road to Houston and then to the Giants, So
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: another cross country trip, now another one back home. So
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: four cross country trips basically since early to mid October.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: So the Giants, I mean, the forty nine ers have
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: done a lot of traveling, so the travel situation doesn't
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: line up that well. So I guess I will slightly
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: agree with the Rams in that one, but don't really
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: want to make it a play. I mean, I certainly don't.
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: Jacoby Meyers, Yeah, that's true. He spells it with an ie,
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: which kind of throws me off. Where did Myers go?
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: I forget because the Raiders traded him away, and I
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: forget where he even went. All right, Steelers Chargers is
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: gonna be one of my plays, So I'll leave that
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: alone for now, and then Monday Night. As you guys
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: know already because you've been following me, I do lean
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: to the Packers on Monday Night, but as of now,
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: the money seems to be disagreeing with that. Now, the
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: Packers were a three point favorite on the look Ahead,
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: and I think because of what happened last week, the
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: line came out closer to like two with the Packers.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: But all ready it looks like it's a pick them.
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: So for now, it looks like the money is coming
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: in the Eagles, even though they're public seventy six percent
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: of tickets eighty five percent of the cash on the Eagles.
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: But by the time it gets to Monday, I mean,
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: you might see this market shift around and you might
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: actually see the market read start reflecting the Packers here,
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: which I think might be the case. So I'm there's
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: definitely the potential I'm gonna give out the Packers as
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: a play. I'm not gonna do it yet, but I
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: do think the situation does set up for the Packers
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: here now Philadelphia, they're coming out of a buy. But
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: they went into that buy in a good note. I mean,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: they beat Minnesota and then got their revenge against division
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: rival Giants before going into the buy. So I think
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: that buy came in a bad time for the Eagles.
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: They didn't really need it, and that could stop their
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: momentum a little bit. Like I said, you don't really
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: want to go into the buy on a wind streak
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: because it can slow down your momentum a little bit. Yeah,
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: they'll get up for this game because it's Monday night
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: at lambeau Field, But I think the game is gonna
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: mean a little It's gonna mean a little bit more
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: to the Packers, and the backers are coming off that
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: loss man to Carolina last week, and I know it
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: ended a win streak for them, But I think ending
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: win streak is a little bit different in football. I mean,
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: I think when it's your first loss of the season,
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: it can hang you over a little bit. But green
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: Bay already did have another loss this season, and green
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: Bay has been good against good competition this year. Man,
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: it's just that green Bay they haven't done like they've
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: taken their losses in games where they've been a big favorite,
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: like games were a big favorite. Those are the games
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: that they lose, right. Like I pointed that out last
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: week as part of my Carolina handicap. I said the
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: games were green Bay was a big favorite where Cleveland, Dallas, Cincinnati, Arizona,
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: and Carolina and green Bay failed to cover every single
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: one of those games, and both losses came in those games.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: But games where green Bay has been facing better teams
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: for the most part, although really that was just kind
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: of Detroit and Pittsburgh and Washington back when they still
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: had Jen Daniels, where green Bay was lined as like
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: a smaller favorite in those games. Green Bay did well
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: in those games. So in this price range, green Bay
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: has won and covered every single one of the games
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: where they've been priced like this, So that's a good
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: sign the green Bay does step it up in bigger games.
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: They're coming off that loss to Carolina, where again I
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: pointed out green Bay still outgained Carolina about over one
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: hundred yards in that game, so it wasn't as bad
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: as it looked like on the scoreboard, and it's still embarrassing.
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna be making fun of green Bay for losing
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: to Carolina. I think people were gonna be a little
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: bit off the green Bay train after they lost to Carolina.
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: People are gonna want Philly instead. Between these two teams
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: that they perceive as both decent teams that they perceived
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: Philly as better. Philly are the super Bowl champs, you
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: know from last year. But the other thing about green Bay,
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: of course, is that Philadelphia knocked green Bay out of
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. So green Bay gets a chance
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: at playoff revenge here and that is big. You remember
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: the team that ended your season last year, man, green
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: Bay played okay in that game they fell short. I
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: think I might have given up Philly minus the points
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: because the public was actually on green Bay in that game.
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: I think as an underdog last year at Philly, the
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: public was not really respecting Philly, but now it's a
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: little bit different, and now the public is disrespecting green Bay.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: By the way, it's one of those situations where the
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: public was all over green Bay last week because they're
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: facing Carolina, and now this week the public is basically
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: off of them. So that's another signal that you want
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: to look to fade the public, because when the public
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: completely jumps ship and goes to the other side, you
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: want to fade that sentiment because that's like a knee
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: jerk reaction. It's an overreaction to one game. So I
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: do like that as well, and I think the revenge
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: factor is big here. Green Bay is gonna want that revenge.
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: They're gonna want to beat Philadelphia. So definitely a strong
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: lean for me to the Packers. Will I give it
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: out as a play, I'm not entirely sure yet. I
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: think I will, but I mean the line's probably only
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: gonna wind up like in the one one and a
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: half range, probably, so you'll still basically be able to
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: play the Packers to just win the game. Jacoby Myers
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: went to the Jags. Yeah, so that'll help with those
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: Jags wide receiver injuries there, all right, first play up.
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: You know what it's gonna be. Man, it's the Miami
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: Dolphins plus the nine and a half. I know you
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: guys love this one. You gotta love it. Bills very public.
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: Eighty five percent of the cash, only eighty four percent
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: of the tickets. You might still think I'm a mad man,
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: which I am. I'm a crazy person. Why the hell
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: would I want to take the Dolphins against the Bills. Well,
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: first of all, I think you're getting value on the
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: Dolphins because nobody wants anything to do with the Dolphins,
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: so the books have to skew the number towards the
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: Bills a little bit. That's why fading the public works
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: more often than it doesn't generally, because the public side
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: is usually gonna be the side that is overvalued, and
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: that's the Bills. Here you can see the publics all
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: over them, probably the most public team of the week, actually,
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: well except for Detroit, I guess, which is why I
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: don't want to lay the points with Detroit. Less of
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: the cash coming in on the Bills, so it looks
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: like some of the money is indicating on the Miami side. Here.
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: The crux of this, though, is that I think the
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: Bills are in a huge letdown spot. I mean, we
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: saw what they did last week. It wasn't a primetime game,
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: but it kind of felt like it because it was
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: one of those games in that four PM slate last
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: week where there weren't really any other big games on.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: I don't think it was the game that lasted later,
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: because I think it was one of the ones that
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: was slightly scheduled later or scheduled slightly later. That was
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: a huge game for Buffalo, dude. They beat Kansas City.
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: You know, Kansas City was the team and eliminated Buffalo
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: from the playoffs. This seems to happen every year. Kansas
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: City eliminates Buffalo from the playoffs and then Buffalo beats
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: them during the regular season. But that is still a
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: huge win, man. Buffalo got that win against Kansas City,
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: huge win. Now they're gonna go face Miami again and
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: they already beat Miami by double digits at home, and
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: I know Miami actually covered the number in that game
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: on a Thursday night game. I think it was like
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: an eleven and a half twelve and a half points
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: spread there Miami covered the number. Now we're shifting to
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: Miami and the line is nine and a half, and
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: you probably don't even have to play this now. Actually
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: you could wait and see if it gets to ten.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: I don't know if it will, because ten is definitely
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: a really key number. But I think there's no reason
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: to play it now because if you wait, it's probably
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: still gonna be nine to nine and a half at worse.
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: So I would wait and see if you get the ten,
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: because it is a key number. But I think this
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: line is a little bit too high based on what
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: it was. I think it was too high in that
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: game at Buffalo as well, being eleven and a half
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: or whatever. I think it probably should have been a
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: little bit less than that. So I think the line
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: here probably should be maybe more, maybe closer to seven
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: and a half or so here, although I know some
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: dead numbers above seven and a half there. But also
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: I think part of the reason why it's nine and
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: a half is because it's a teaser killer, Like the
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: books want to make sure that you can't do the
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: long teaser and tease a number that's above seven all
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: the way down to below three, So the books might
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: do that. They might actually get the Lions up to
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: nine for that reason too, because they think the Lions
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: actually make a very good teaser this week, because I
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: think the Lions are absolutely going to show up and
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: at least try to win that game because this is
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: a revenge game for them, So I don't see the
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: Lions losing that one. So I think a te like
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: Lions do make a good teaser leg right now, you
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: can get it down from eight to two. That is
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: definitely a good teaser leg. I don't know what I
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: would pair it with though, as far as one of
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: the other teasers, and that one seems very good crossing
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: the numbers of US seven and three there. The other
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: one is still kind of up in the air though.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: As far as what I would do if I wanted
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: to play a teaser like, what would be the other
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: leg here? I don't know. Man, It's actually a difficult
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: decision because usually I'd look to take maybe an underdog
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: like up, like maybe maybe take the Jets up, because
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: do you really think the Browns can beat the Jets
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: by like over eight and a half points or something.
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: I don't know, Man made a very low total game,
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: as ugly as that seems. Maybe that's the teaser played there.
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: I don't know, man, if there is one or tied
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: into something next week. But anyway back to Buffalo here.
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: Buffalo also has Tampa Bay next week and that's I
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: think still a big game because it's Baker Mayfield and
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Josh Allen's still kind of like the MVP race type
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: of thing there. So yeah, I think it's a bad
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: spot for Buffalo, and I think the spot's a little
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: bit better for Miami as Miami has extra time off
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: because they played on Thursday. People saw them look really
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: bad against Baltimore on Thursday than they scored six points,
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: and now Miami has extra rest off of that, which
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: I think is helpful. When you have extra rest and
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: you didn't play well, that's gonna help you out a
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: little bit. And you know, Miami, even though they're dead
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: this year, you gotta think that a game that Miami
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: is going to show up for, Like, if there's any
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: game they're gonna show up for in the remainder of
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: the season, it's gonna be a home game against the
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. I mean, the Bills are still the team
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: to beat in the division. You gotta think Miami is
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: still gonna show up for that one. I think Miami's
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: also lost i think three games in a row at
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: least to Buffalo, so it's a big game from Miami.
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: I'm looking at this Miami game against the Ravens. By
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: the way, the Ravens weren't really as good as it
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: looked like on the scoreboard. The Ravens only outgained Miami
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: by six yards, so it was actually close game statistically,
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: and basically one of the main reasons why Miami lost
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: the way they did is because they had three turnovers,
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: So that's like that makes it a little bit of
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: a misleading result there. I think if Miami can clean
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: that up, they can actually play close in this game.
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: Buffalo having to go to Miami is always kind of
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: a weird spot. Really, I don't know. It seems like
- 1:10:23Speaker 1: Miami does tend to play them fairly well in Miami.
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: It's gonna be almost ninety degrees at this game, so
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: I think that also is not good for Buffalo because
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: they're kind of a coldish weather team. Having to play
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: in heat like this even though it's in November, it's
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: eighty eight degrees at game time, is what it's supposed
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: to be. Miami might be able to steam Buffalo out
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: a little bit. Miami should wear white uniforms and forced
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: Buffalo and I have to wear dark uniforms. And it's
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: in the middle of the day, so the sun's gonna
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: be bearing down as well, So that might be a
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: little bit of an added edge they're built into Miami
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: that people might not talk about. And then what else
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: was I gonna say? I mean, that was most of it.
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: I think, Oh yes, and Mike McDaniels is still coaching Miami.
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: Here is it McDaniels or McDaniel, I forget. I mean,
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: he's an idiot. He's gonna get fired. He's not good.
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: But obviously he's on the hot seat here. And he
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: did the same thing that John Harbaugh did with the
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: Ravens when the Ravens are coming out of the bye
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: Harbaugh took like all their entertainment away in the locker room,
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: like he took all their video games and shit away.
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: McDaniel has done the same thing with Miami this week.
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: Like I don't I forget what game it was that
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: he took away from them. It was some hilarious sounding
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: game that he took away from them. But McDaniel, he's
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: getting serious, man, and it worked out. You remember, I
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: gave out the Ravens as that as the play after
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: they did that coming out of the bye, because that's
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: an indicator that the coach is really like getting his
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: players focused on the game, Like he's removing distractions from
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: the locker room, saying, you guys got to focus here, man. Like,
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: I think the funning games is those are good when
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: the team's playing well because it adds like team chemistry
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: and stuff. But when the team is playing poorly, you
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: gotta shake something up. You gotta start drilling your players
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: a bit. So I think this is a good thing
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: that McDaniels has taking away some of their entertainment. So
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: Miami BLUs the points in that game, man, I like
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: that one. It is definitely human in Florida as well.
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: I don't know about this time of year, but probably
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: still it's just always humid there. I've been in Florida
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: in the summer and it's real bad. But I'm a
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: new Englander, so I can't even like, I can't, dude,
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: I deal with the cold real well. I deal. I
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: don't deal with heat. It just it sucks. I've been
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: I've been down to Miami in like January two though,
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: and it's a lot better in January, a lot nicer.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: All right, Next play up. Usually I don't do this,
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: but I'm gonna lay a road favorite here with the
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. Minus four, I think is the best you
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: can get if you want to play money line. It's
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: getting a little bit crazy with like a minus two
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: hundred or so. I mean, you could maybe parlay that
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: money line something else if you really want to, But
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: I think the Ravens are gonna get this thing done.
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: The Ravens are still a below five hundred team, so
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: I think the public is still gonna look at this
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: number and be like, I can't lay like points like
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: this with a three to five raven team on the road,
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: you know, and the Ravens. The public is still I
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: don't think gonna be that impressed with the Ravens with
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: what they've done coming out of the by. They beat
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: Chicago and then they beat Miami last week, and it
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: was kind of an ugly game, and Miami's ugly, so
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: I don't think the public is gonna really put that
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: much weight into Baltimore yet. But I still think Baltimore
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: is like a sleeping giant right now. Man, Like, I
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: still think Baltimore is gonna win their division. Of course,
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: they were my pick to win the Super Bowl to
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: start the year, and their defense was really struggling at
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. But Baltimore also has faced
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: a very difficult schedule. I mean, they have lost this
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: to Buffalo, Detroit, Kansas City, the Rams Houston, and the
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: Rams in Houston were without Lamar Jackson because he went
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: down in the Kansas City game. So been a difficult
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: schedule and they don't have any bad losses really, so
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: that is something to look at with Baltimore. I think Baltimore,
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: in the situation that they're in right now, I think
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: they're one of the best teams in football. And by
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: the way, last week was actually the reverse injured player
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: spot that I talked about. Lamar Jackson came back last week,
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: and usually there can be a little bit of a
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: chemistry concern there. You know, he can kind of be slow,
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: like your star player can kind of be slow to
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: ramp back up to speed. You know, so usually that game,
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: usually want to look to go against that team. And
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: that was the only Thursday Night game I've gotten wrong
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: all year on the show. I didn't give it out
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: as a play but luckily, but usually the team, you know,
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: can start a little bit slow, and they actually weren't
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: that good offensively in the game. But I think, you know,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: it takes like a game or two to get your
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: bearings again. So I think in the second game, with
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: your star player back with Lamar Jackson, you're gonna be
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: a lot better than you were in that first game.
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: They've had extra time to do something here because they
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: played on Thursday. I think that won't stop the momentum
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: having the extra time off because I think I think
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: they realize they didn't play that well in that Miami
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: game and they can't take their foot off the gas
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: right now. Man Baltimore, they got to catch up in
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: their divisions, so they got to win all these games.
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: Even though usually I would say a road out of
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: conference game, you don't want to look to play on
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: the team it's a road out of conference favorite because
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: usually they're gonna overlook that game because it's one of
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: the games that means the least on their schedule, but
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: Baltimore needs ever win they can get right now, man
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: to try to get back in this because right now,
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: like they're not focused on time breakers, they're focused on
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: winning fucking games. So that's what they got to do here.
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: It's the second game with Jackson back, which I think
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: is gonna be helpful to them as well. Baltimore. Their
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: defense has actually started to play better recently too, although
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: I know they've started to face worse offenses, but Minnesota
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: is also not a very good offense. I know Minnesota
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: looked pretty good last week, but you remember I gave
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: out Minnesota in that game against Detroit because I thought
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: it was a bad spot for Detroit, which I already
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: talked about the show earlier when I talked about Detroit,
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: and you can go back and watch that again or
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: watch my analysis from last week. But Detroit, they I
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: think they were coming out of a bye, was that right,
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: I forget, Yeah, they were coming out of a bye
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: that I think stopped their momentum a little bit, and
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: they had Washington up next, so it was a sandwich
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: spot for Detroit Minnesota. I know it was kind of
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: a reverse injured player spot because they did get McCarthy back,
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: but Wentz was hurt due so they had to go
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: back to McCarthy, and you knew McCarthy was gonna be
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: a bit of an upgrade from Wentz, who was just
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: playing injured. So it just had to be that way,
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: and they got the job done. But now everybody's like
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: hyping McCarthy. Oh my god, McCarthy's so good. He beat
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: Detroit on the road and Sam darnelld couldn't do that,
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: which is true, he couldn't, and Detroit had beaten Minnesota
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: a bunch of times in a row. But that's why
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: I want to fade Minnesota here, man, because Minnesota wasn't
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: really as good as it looked like in this game,
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: which I haven't dug into the box score yet on
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: the show. But Detroit outgained Minnesota by almost fifty yards,
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: which isn't a lot, but still Minnesota didn't actually play
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: that well in this game. They played well enough to
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: cover and they won the game outright, which I'm happy
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: for because that was one of my plays last week.
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: But now you've got Minnesota looking better than they actually are.
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: Beating Detroit is a huge game from Minnesota. Now I
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: think they're gonna be the team that overlooks an out
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: of conference opponent with Baltimore being below five hundred, even
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: though we know Baltimore's good. But and I think people
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: are gonna think, hey, if Minnesota beat Detroit and Detroit
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: beat Baltimore, then how could we possibly lay points with Baltimore? Right?
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: So I think the public might actually do that transitive
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: thing here too, because we saw Detroit beat Baltimore with
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson on Monday night, So how could you possibly
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: lay points with Baltimore here? Right? Like, it doesn't look
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: like the public's gonna want to do it, but that's
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: why I want to do it. And Minnesota after they
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: played Baltimore here, oh yeah, they have Chicago and then
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: green Bay. So this is a divisional sandwich here where
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: they're playing all of their divisional opponents surrounding this game.
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: So I think this is the game that Minnesota overlooks
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: man and they take a step back. Baltimore is the
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: better team, even though the record doesn't look like it.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: They're so much the better team that they're laying four
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: points on the road here. I like it lay the
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: points of the Ravens. I think it's a sandwich spot
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: that Minnesota is in here. As ridiculous as that might sound,
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: let's do it. There we go, Ravens, Yeah, Florida is
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: bad in the summer. For sure, you parlay them. I mean,
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: I recommend against parlane because one one loss takes down
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: the entire parlaning books want you to parlay. That's why
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: they advertise so much, because they never give you good
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: enough odds. So me, knowing that I don't have an
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: edge on parlays, I can't do it. Although doing it,
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: you know, for fun and whatever, fine, but you just
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: gotta understand that it's more entertainment and that you're not
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: gonna be able to beat it long term. Really, Sam Houston,
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: are they gonna win the game? They're up four? It
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: looks like here they have the football, they're celebrating. It's
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: gonna be their first win of the season. I think,
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: oh wait, what am I looking at here? No, that's
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: Oregon State celebrating. What just happened? Oht know, Oregon State
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: got a first down? I think, what are we? What
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: are you talking about? Justin Oregon State has the football?
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: I was looking I just saw orange. That was Oregon
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: State celebrating. But they have to get a touchdown. This
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: is gonna be an interesting end of this game here,
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: so you might get my live and commentary while I
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: do this, But I have to give out my last
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: play too, which is gonna be on the Chargers minus
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: two and a half. And I found this at minus
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: one eleven. I didn't see it at minus one ten anywhere.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: It's at three reduced juice at some places now, But
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: I think I would lay minus two and a half
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: up to like maybe minus one fifteen. If not, then
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: maybe lay the three. But of course three is a
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: key number, so you want to try to get it
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: below the three. You could maybe they're going for the
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: end zone here. Man Oregon State is sam Uston. This
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: is gonna be a huge game for them if they
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: get the win, though, because they don't have to win
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: this season, although they actually had ten wins last season.
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: I don't know why sam Houston changed in their offenses
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: yearn oh, he maybe could have caught that anyway. Chargers
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: with the line get the best line that you can.
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: You could play money line on this too if you
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: want to. But I like the spot for the Chargers here,
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: and I don't like the spot for the Steelers two
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: dollars on tonight would have paid over three thousand. You
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: don't care about two dollars, I guess, but I mean
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: it's still it's still uh, you should get better odds
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: than that. It should pay you even more than that.
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: So like, yeah, like long, long term, it's still gonna
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: be a loser. Although like I'm not gonna knock you
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: for paying two bucks for it per like for my
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: like autism, I can't do it though, because I'm like
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: I always need an edge. What happened? There was a
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: turnover in this game, But I thought you said they
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: couldn't kneeled. Oregon State only is one time out left,
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: so why why did Sam used to not kneel? Or
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: were they not able to? I don't know, man, this
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: is gonna be a crazy ending. Holy crap. I don't know.
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: I don't know what down it is right now. But Chargers, Yes,
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: let me try to talk about the Chargers. The money's
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: coming in on the Chargers, fifty one percent of tickets
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: on the Steelers. Everybody's I think overvaluing the Steelers right now, man,
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: and overlooking the Chargers as usual because people don't like this.
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh offense where he plays like kind of a
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: possession style, though he's not really doing that as much
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: this year. He's unleashing Herbert a bit more because Herbert
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: was hurt the prior like two seasons, so now he's healthier.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: But fifty nine percent of the cash on the Chargers,
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: they are headed towards three. Here. It looks like the
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: look ahead on this game had Chargers four and a
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: half and then just because of last week, the line
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: came out like Chargers two and a half. So you're
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: getting a little bit of value on the Chargers. So
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: the line actually overreacted based on last week's results because
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: it was gonna be Charged four and a half here.
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: And of course we know what the Steelers did last week.
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: They beat Indianapolis, and I already told you why they
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: beat Indianapolis. I mean, Indianapolis outgained them in this game
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: by over one hundred yards in the game, so Indianapolis
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: dominated the game statistically. They had more first downs, more
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: time of possession slightly, but Indy lost this game because
- 1:22:20Speaker 1: they were minus five and turnovers. It looks like that
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: is at the end of it. Yeah, Sam Houston hangs
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: on for a win. Man that's crazy able to get
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: the win as the underdog there. I don't know how
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: big of an underdog they were where Sam Houston would
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: win there. But anyway, Yes, the Colts had six turnovers
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: as I already mentioned, minus five and turnovers. I mean,
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: that was the game that Pittsburgh looked better than they
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: actually wore. And that was a huge win for Pittsburgh
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: man beating the team that was like a top the
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: AFC there. Now what does Pittsburgh have to do? They
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: have to go out on the road to the Pacific
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: Coast for the first time this season. Pittsburgh is not
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: played further west than Cincinnati all all seasons so far.
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: So now they have to go out to the Pacific Coast.
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: They have to change time zones and all the way out.
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: Not only all the way after the Pacific Coast and
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: changing time zones, but for a late night game at
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: eight to twenty pm Eastern times, that's gonna be I
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: talk about this the biological clock shift. People always talk
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: about the West coast team having played the early East
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: coast time. That's not the worst spot. The worst biological
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: spot is the East Eastern times on team going all
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: the way west because the game doesn't end until like
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: midnight their time sometimes or whatever, so they can really
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: be getting fatigued at the end of the day based
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: on their biological clock. So it is a pretty bad
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: spot for that reason as well. Oh in Pittsburgh, by
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: the way, who do they have after the Chargers? Or
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: they might overlook the Chargers a little bit because the
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: Chargers have been kind of mediocre. Even though they are
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: six and three. I still think the Chargers under the
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: raidar a little bit big win over Indian. Who does
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: Pittsburgh play next Cincinnati, even though Cincinnati is down right
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: now because they don't have Joe Burrow. That's a big
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: divisional game and it's a revenge game and Pittsburgh needs
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: to hold serve in the conference, man, So they do
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: need to beat Cincinnati to make sure Cincinnati doesn't start
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: catching up to them. And Pittsburgh already lost at Cincinnati
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: in that big primetime game, So that's not that's a
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: look ahead spot I think for Pittsburgh here, man, I
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: think it's a bit of a sandwich spot because I
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: think they're gonna be looking ahead to that game. They
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: want revenge against Cincinnati. It'll be Rogers versus Flacco Part two.
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't like the spot at all here.
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: And Pittsburgh has played a bunch of like big games
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: in a row man. They played Thursday night primetime against
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: Cincinnati in Week seven, and then in Week eight they
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: had the primetime Aaron Rodgers Bowl Sunday night against Green Bay.
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: Then they had a big game last week even though
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: it wasn't a primetime game against Indy. Now it's another
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: primetime game against the Chargers that takes its toll as well. Man,
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a bad spot for Pittsburgh. And as
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: far as the Chargers are concerned, they're under the radar
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: right now, and they haven't had to travel that much
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: over the last few weeks. They were actually at home
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: for two straight games. They righted the ship, and then
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: they only had to make one travel spot out to
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Tennessee last week, and they didn't look good in the game.
- 1:25:14Speaker 1: They only beat Tennessee by seven. So I think the
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: public is kind of off the Charger train right now
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: because they don't care about the Chargers beating Miami barely
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: back in Week six. That doesn't look very good for
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: the Chargers losing to Indianapolis. Oh, by the way, ding
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: ding ding. The public's gonna see that, I think, and think, hey,
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: Pittsburgh beat Indy, who beat the Chargers, So of course
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is gonna at least cover this number against the Chargers, right,
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: That's what the public is gonna think. But again, you
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: shouldn't handicap that way. I mean, every game is in
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: an individual situation. And the Chargers were better statistically in
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: that game against India than it looks like on the score.
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: But I mean you can see here Herbert threw for
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: four to twenty in the game, so it was a
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: better game for the Chargers to look like on the scoreboard.
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: So again, that kind of puts me looking for that
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: has to be looking towards the Chargers as well. But yeah,
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: the Chargers. Then they beat Minnesota with an injured Carson Wentz.
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna put that much stock into the Chargers doing that,
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: and then nobody cares about them beating Tennessee and not
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: even covering if anything, that's gonna make the public not
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: like the Chargers as much, but I do. They're coming
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: back home. The spot is a lot worse in my
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: opinion for Pittsburgh, and I think the Chargers are the
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: better team and the Chargers they don't get much for
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: home field. They probably will get about two points at
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: most for home field, maybe one and a half. So
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: the Oswegers are telling you the Chargers are actually the
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: slightly better team here. I agree with it, and it's
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: a better spot for them. Lay it with the Chargers.
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: You can probably still find it a minus two and
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: a half at like slightly juiced, like up to minus
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: one fifteen. But I mean I'm probably okay with laying
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: the three as well. Yep, Sam Houston won. It was
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: twenty and a half points. Yeah, I mean that's even
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: though Sam Houston bad team, and twenty and a half
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: is too high. I mean, Oregon State's still pretty bad
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: as well. So yeah, I think that spread was a
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: bit too high. I didn't talk about that on my show.
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: But that's gonna do it, man. So hopefully we get
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: some wins. Hopefully you guys like these plays. I gotta
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: try to get some sleep. I gotta get some more
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: water too. Again, Miami plus the nine and a half,
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: but I said wait on that to see if Ten's
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: show up. I don't know if they will, but I
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: like that one. Baltimore minus the points and chargers minus
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: the two and a half, you might have to lay
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: three two and a half again. I would probably do
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: it up to about minus one fifteen because you get
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: on the better side of the three. I saw it
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: at minus one eleven at one of the books. That's
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: slow to react in Massachusetts. So that's what we're going with, Charles.
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. We need to get back on track
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: after two losing days a little. Today was not that bad,
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: a slight losing day, although it pissed me off still,
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: Yesterday was a lot worse. Let's bounce back. Let's get
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: back on the winning track. Let's do it and learn
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: a tone on Twitter, learn it tone on Instagram. I'll
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: like it. Subscribe here to the YouTube channel, leave a
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: good comment. It all helps me out here. Man, we're
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: on audio as well. Give me a good review over
- 1:28:13Speaker 1: on Spotify and Apple. That helps me out. Listening on
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: audio helps me out as well. I have a yuke
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: channel here on YouTube covered in yukes. You can check
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: that out for yuke covers and Pagreon dot com, slash
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: learn it toad and you get bonus content. There's a
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: yuke Spotify feed and yuke requests and I gotta think
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: about more bonus content to give to people to get
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: their money's worse, so I gotta think about what what
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: I can add. But I need to get my voice
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: back too, so I gotta stop doing these shows. And dude,
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: I just like my instinct is just talk loud. I
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: don't know what to do. I'm Italian and I talk
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: with my hands about a ban, about a boom. I mean,
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: that's just what we do. I don't know what else
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: to do. I don't know. Maybe I should put my
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: headphones back on and have myself loud, like in my
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: own ears. That would probably have me not talking as loudly.
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: Thanks guys for hanging out. Let's get some Winstrom. I'll
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: be back in the morning because I know there's gonna
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: be some probably college basketball, usually light college basketball on Sunday,
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: and then there'll be some NBA and NHL, probably light
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: on all three of those. But we'll see Italian Toad.
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: I don't know if he's better than Boston Toad, but
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: they're both kind of the same thing. A lot of
- 1:29:24Speaker 1: Italians in Boston in the North End. Kid, that's that's
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: just that's the way that it is, all right, it's late, guys,
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: Peace for now,
