- 1:25Speaker 1: Welcome to the Favorites, the podcast from the Volume Podcast Network.
- 1:30Speaker 1: I I'm chatting Oman chief Content Officer of the Action Network.
- 1:35Speaker 1: It is the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, folks, we are giving
- 1:41Speaker 1: some fucking thanks me and my co host, professional Better
- 1:46Speaker 1: Simon Hunter. How are you, buddy? What a long weekend
- 1:50Speaker 1: of gamble chat. I just feel like I've never ended.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Every day there's something to bet on, something I had
- 1:54Speaker 1: to bet on, and I had to just keep going,
- 1:57Speaker 1: just keep throwing. I mean, I feel like by Sunday
- 1:59Speaker 1: morning or kaote, You're just like I can't take it anymore. Look,
- 2:05Speaker 1: we gotta we got a lot to talk about. We
- 2:06Speaker 1: got the full slate. We had another winning week, we
- 2:10Speaker 1: eked out another winning week, a three and two weeks
- 2:14Speaker 1: and it got really tricky. I made probably the worst
- 2:18Speaker 1: Thanksgiving turkey I've ever made in my life. We genuinely
- 2:21Speaker 1: had to say at the end of the meal, if
- 2:24Speaker 1: we're being intellectually honest, everything sucked. Everything like the turkey
- 2:29Speaker 1: was bad. The mashed potatoes were bad. The stuffing was shitty,
- 2:33Speaker 1: Like every single thing that my wife and I made
- 2:36Speaker 1: was just bad. But the Bears lines went under, and
- 2:40Speaker 1: the Bears one and the Bills one. From Matt Mitchell,
- 2:45Speaker 1: the Bills make me throw your hands something, throw your
- 2:51Speaker 1: hand all now, the Bills, I'm making it happen. The
- 2:55Speaker 1: Raiders covered like we said they would, so all in
- 2:59Speaker 1: all like can't in. And then this weekend we went
- 3:02Speaker 1: three and two. We had the Bills in the contest.
- 3:04Speaker 1: We both love the Texans. The Texans lost. I love
- 3:07Speaker 1: the Steelers. You kind of like the Steelers. The Steelers lost.
- 3:10Speaker 1: I love the Broncos. You were iffy on the Broncos.
- 3:14Speaker 1: You didn't want to put him in. Well, I bet
- 3:15Speaker 1: him by bet him at plus three, we're getting two
- 3:17Speaker 1: and a half. Yeah, And they were one. And then
- 3:19Speaker 1: the other two games that you know, we probably would
- 3:22Speaker 1: have only chosen one of them because we weren't going
- 3:24Speaker 1: to take the Texans out were the Giants and the Dolphins,
- 3:27Speaker 1: who you loved, and you had information coming in on
- 3:30Speaker 1: Sunday morning that some Cyndy kids were coming in big
- 3:32Speaker 1: on the Dolphins. I'm happy with the three and two
- 3:35Speaker 1: weeks I bet you are chat some of some of
- 3:37Speaker 1: us aren't. I had an amazing Thanksgiving. All my food
- 3:40Speaker 1: was amazing, our match potatoes were on fire. Just a
- 3:45Speaker 1: great Thursday, Saturday, had a great day. Bet big on
- 3:48Speaker 1: Michigan again. Pull the Curran's back. I give chat info
- 3:51Speaker 1: that people don't get, like he's actually getting real info
- 3:53Speaker 1: from a pro that's talking to real professional groups. And
- 3:56Speaker 1: in my exact quote, the Chad was the same group
- 3:59Speaker 1: that owned did Michigan and bet them all the way
- 4:02Speaker 1: down have come in heavy on Miami. These guys don't
- 4:05Speaker 1: miss and chat us. I don't like it. I still
- 4:09Speaker 1: getting over the fact that you proprood it like that
- 4:12Speaker 1: pud that you proprood the Giants. Again. It's funny too,
- 4:16Speaker 1: because I looked like our text on Thursday. I sent
- 4:18Speaker 1: you a photo of our picks and I had the
- 4:20Speaker 1: Patriots in there in Green Bay and you didn't like
- 4:22Speaker 1: either of them either. So like, I'm just happy we
- 4:25Speaker 1: got the three too, because it was just um that
- 4:28Speaker 1: Pittsburgh game. I didn't trust it, Like I said, dude,
- 4:30Speaker 1: I didn't get why the line wasn't three. It was
- 4:32Speaker 1: sitting at three and a half all week and then
- 4:34Speaker 1: went up to four on Sunday, just a fishy line.
- 4:37Speaker 1: We got smoked by that one. The Texans was an
- 4:39Speaker 1: awful read. I think it was like fourteen to three.
- 4:41Speaker 1: I was feeling so good. They lost fourteen. They didn't
- 4:44Speaker 1: score a single point from that point forward in the
- 4:46Speaker 1: second quarter. So it hurts just because we had four
- 4:48Speaker 1: and one sitting there. But every week we go three
- 4:51Speaker 1: and two, that's a good week. Like the top people
- 4:54Speaker 1: went one of four this week in our contest, so
- 4:57Speaker 1: it stinks that we didn't take advantage of that and
- 4:58Speaker 1: flipping go four in one. But it you'll never see
- 5:01Speaker 1: me complain about three and two weeks. We know how
- 5:02Speaker 1: hard it is to win sports betting, so and any
- 5:05Speaker 1: week we go three and two, I'm happy. What's annoying
- 5:07Speaker 1: is I think on the podcast on Tuesday. It's like
- 5:10Speaker 1: I didn't even remember anything from the podcast on Tuesday,
- 5:13Speaker 1: because I'm pretty sure we liked Miami and we like
- 5:16Speaker 1: the Giants on Tuesday again, I get why you didn't
- 5:20Speaker 1: like it, though, Like those aren't fun bets. To make
- 5:22Speaker 1: the Giants your last memory of them, where it's just
- 5:25Speaker 1: being horrible, and your last memory of Eagles is being good.
- 5:27Speaker 1: You're just like, I don't really trust them. I don't
- 5:29Speaker 1: really know if I want to put them in. As
- 5:30Speaker 1: soon as that game started, anyone watching it was just like, oh,
- 5:33Speaker 1: thank god I have the Giants. This is just one
- 5:34Speaker 1: of those games where nothing's gonna go right for the Eagles.
- 5:37Speaker 1: And that's this upcoming week. People are gonna hate some
- 5:40Speaker 1: of my bets. I love this week so much. Some
- 5:43Speaker 1: of these lines are just late season gifts from the
- 5:47Speaker 1: sports books. Like again, we'll talk about it. This past month,
- 5:51Speaker 1: this has been the worst month for the betting public.
- 5:52Speaker 1: They've just been actually getting smashed. This has been our
- 5:55Speaker 1: best month, best month that our best five are our picks.
- 5:58Speaker 1: It's been a really good month for us, and I
- 6:00Speaker 1: can see continuing because next this week, man, there are
- 6:03Speaker 1: so many traps who are just walking right into So
- 6:05Speaker 1: I'm really excited to get to this slate. Well, look,
- 6:07Speaker 1: the last three weeks we're four and one, four and one,
- 6:10Speaker 1: three and two, So I'll take it. We're climbing back.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Let's get to the slate. For the record, you can
- 6:15Speaker 1: see it in the app. I did pick the New
- 6:17Speaker 1: York Giants on Sunday morning. I made the bet at
- 6:20Speaker 1: twelve fifty seven. You're here. It was plus four. I
- 6:24Speaker 1: made the bet, all right. Thursday night football, Dallas Cowboys
- 6:28Speaker 1: at New Orleans Saints. The Cowboys are four point favorites
- 6:34Speaker 1: in this game, so this this line was six. COVID
- 6:38Speaker 1: news came out dropped it down to four. Four and
- 6:40Speaker 1: a half. Uh, I still like it, still like the Saints.
- 6:44Speaker 1: When I first saw this number, my first all was,
- 6:46Speaker 1: that's just weird. They bumped it up to six. I
- 6:49Speaker 1: thought that was interested, as if they knew that CD
- 6:51Speaker 1: was gonna be back, and that Cooper is gonna be
- 6:53Speaker 1: off the COVID list and that they have all their weapons.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Then when the code news came out and it dropped,
- 6:58Speaker 1: I kind of made more sense to me. And so
- 6:59Speaker 1: I we're sitting here on Tuesday, we don't know who
- 7:02Speaker 1: has COVID, who's out the books. Aren't gonna take that
- 7:04Speaker 1: risk and leave a number so high because they already
- 7:06Speaker 1: didn't like Dallas in this matchup. You could just tell
- 7:08Speaker 1: by the way they hung this number they knew that
- 7:09Speaker 1: public was gonna come and really heavy on Dallas and
- 7:11Speaker 1: they didn't care. So the professional is coming now in
- 7:14Speaker 1: the Saints. We don't even know if Camar is playing.
- 7:16Speaker 1: We don't know if Ingram playing, that's that's a big
- 7:18Speaker 1: deal to us. So this is one of those if
- 7:20Speaker 1: you didn't get the six with the Saints, I would
- 7:22Speaker 1: wait until game time to know if those guys are
- 7:25Speaker 1: playing off. Kamar's in, if Ingram's in love the Saints.
- 7:28Speaker 1: This is a classic ball control, good defense with the Saints.
- 7:31Speaker 1: Everyone's kind of giving up on the Saints at this point.
- 7:33Speaker 1: They're done with them because that Bills match up. I
- 7:36Speaker 1: like it from the other way. That was just that
- 7:38Speaker 1: was more about what the Bills were gonna do. And
- 7:40Speaker 1: and again Trevor Simmon didn't look goo in that game.
- 7:42Speaker 1: He was due for one of those. He is a
- 7:43Speaker 1: third string quarterback. But when he has his weapons back,
- 7:46Speaker 1: when he has Ingram back, Kamar back, this is when
- 7:48Speaker 1: you want to take the Saints at home and this
- 7:49Speaker 1: kind of matchup. So for right now, we'll just wait
- 7:52Speaker 1: until we see what the deals with those guys. The
- 7:54Speaker 1: money is coming in on the Cowboys. The bests are
- 7:56Speaker 1: coming in the Cowboys. Very good chance. By the time
- 7:59Speaker 1: this game gets to kick off, the line does move.
- 8:01Speaker 1: I don't know if it gets back up to six, Uh,
- 8:04Speaker 1: it's probably still going to float around this four and
- 8:06Speaker 1: a half or five and a half. Yeah, that sounds
- 8:08Speaker 1: about right. So do we like it at five and
- 8:13Speaker 1: a half? Like, is the is the concept to your
- 8:17Speaker 1: weight on the game. But if it's still at four
- 8:19Speaker 1: and a half, take it at four and a half.
- 8:22Speaker 1: I know you're gonna bet it. Yeah, I already bet
- 8:24Speaker 1: about I would just waiting now at this point, is
- 8:25Speaker 1: you already missed the six? So like, I don't see
- 8:27Speaker 1: a drop in bull four. Like you said, the public
- 8:29Speaker 1: is gonna keep coming on Dallas regardless of the COVID news.
- 8:32Speaker 1: People are out on the Saints. They look at them
- 8:34Speaker 1: on the bottom teams in the league like they do
- 8:35Speaker 1: with the Seahawk. So these are the kind of teams
- 8:38Speaker 1: that people are just giving up on. So you're gonna
- 8:40Speaker 1: be able to get value of the Saints no matter what.
- 8:42Speaker 1: All Right, the ever disappointing Chargers who we nailed, Like,
- 8:46Speaker 1: I feel like we have a really good read on
- 8:48Speaker 1: the Chargers because we've been on them when they've won
- 8:51Speaker 1: and we've been against them when they've lost, specifically two
- 8:55Speaker 1: big times where the Ravens and then this past week
- 8:58Speaker 1: in the Broncos. Of course, we texted on Sunday, Drew
- 9:02Speaker 1: Lock comes in. We know we need the Broncos. The
- 9:05Speaker 1: Broncos are playing great. They are driving to go up
- 9:09Speaker 1: I think seventeen nothing. At the end of the first half.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Drew Lock comes in. It looks like he's trying to
- 9:15Speaker 1: throw it away but ends up just being a bad
- 9:16Speaker 1: pass that gets intercepted and run back for a touchdown.
- 9:19Speaker 1: It wasn't run back for a touch him. The fact
- 9:20Speaker 1: that this guy was trying to throw it at the ground.
- 9:22Speaker 1: This how padreck lockets. You're trying to spike it at
- 9:24Speaker 1: a guy's feet and he was able to throw a
- 9:26Speaker 1: pick that they returned. And yeah, Herbert drove the field
- 9:28Speaker 1: and scored a touch on before half. So yeah, I
- 9:30Speaker 1: texted Chat, I wish we could cash at right now
- 9:32Speaker 1: because I hate that we have money on Drew Lock.
- 9:34Speaker 1: But thank god Teddy came back. Man, Teddy came back.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Los Angeles Chargers at Cincinnati Bengals. Holy hell, man, how
- 9:44Speaker 1: much has Herbert regressed? This is crazy? Like someone whose
- 9:47Speaker 1: arguing other day, who's better Herbert or to Right now,
- 9:51Speaker 1: it's hard to say to it looks pretty damn good.
- 9:53Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna bear Herbert yet. But It's crazy
- 9:55Speaker 1: how we went from this guy being a top five
- 9:57Speaker 1: quarterback the first three or four weeks two. He is
- 10:00Speaker 1: bad right now, not making good reads. He's throwing the
- 10:03Speaker 1: ball too hard and he doesn't need to, like he's
- 10:05Speaker 1: really a guy's five feet from He's strowing as hard
- 10:08Speaker 1: as you ken. It's just hitting off the guy's chest
- 10:10Speaker 1: like it's It doesn't really make sense what's going on
- 10:12Speaker 1: with Herbert. Um. Maybe they'll turn around here coming at
- 10:16Speaker 1: the end of the like the home stretch, But every
- 10:19Speaker 1: week it looks like he's regressed a little bit. And
- 10:21Speaker 1: you could say, well, he played great against that Pittsburgh team.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I mean that was a lot to do with that
- 10:25Speaker 1: clerk like that. Claire had a like a career day
- 10:27Speaker 1: against that Pittsburgh matchup. So I will be in this game.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I will be taking the charger and I'll take the
- 10:32Speaker 1: three and a half. This is as high as you're
- 10:35Speaker 1: gonna get on this Bengals team. They just absolutely dominated Pittsburgh.
- 10:39Speaker 1: We're getting three and a half points in a matchup
- 10:40Speaker 1: where like Herbert's never gonna be out of it, like
- 10:43Speaker 1: he is always gonna be in at that game last
- 10:45Speaker 1: week we talked about that was a divisional matchup. That
- 10:48Speaker 1: defensive layout was just perfect matchup for against what Herbert
- 10:52Speaker 1: wants to do. He's getting a good matchup here against
- 10:55Speaker 1: this since he team so three and a half, this
- 10:57Speaker 1: number has been been up to. We'll take it. It's
- 11:00Speaker 1: hard not to take it when this match up. Both
- 11:02Speaker 1: these teams are pretty much even. I know that you
- 11:05Speaker 1: look at the record this season it says otherwise, But
- 11:08Speaker 1: to me this is this is a good number. It
- 11:10Speaker 1: should be three. It's three and a half just because
- 11:11Speaker 1: the public is coming to have you on since so
- 11:13Speaker 1: we'll take the value of Chargers. But this won't be
- 11:15Speaker 1: one of my best five. Yeah, this is a classic.
- 11:19Speaker 1: It's an overreaction under reaction game, right, Like you're just
- 11:22Speaker 1: seeing how badly the Chargers did, you're seeing how well
- 11:26Speaker 1: the Bengals did. The bookmakers know that's where all the
- 11:28Speaker 1: money is gonna come come in. They can shade it
- 11:30Speaker 1: a little bit higher and still know that the public
- 11:32Speaker 1: is going to come in the Bengals yea. And they're
- 11:34Speaker 1: happy just to get a little bit of professional money
- 11:36Speaker 1: to the the Charges. That's why they moved that hook up,
- 11:37Speaker 1: because they're like, you know, we'll just take some money,
- 11:39Speaker 1: some guys will come in. So it's interesting that they
- 11:41Speaker 1: left it there because that's how much public money has
- 11:44Speaker 1: coming on since, so it will be interesting track In
- 11:46Speaker 1: the summers, the week goes along in Minnesota Vikings at
- 11:50Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. Vikings visiting the Lions. There are seven point
- 11:54Speaker 1: favorites for fans of betting. The under that Lions bears
- 11:58Speaker 1: game well is the most enjoyable, relaxing, lovely Thanksgiving Day
- 12:07Speaker 1: bet you could possibly make just terrible teams who can't
- 12:12Speaker 1: get out of their own way. Twice the Lions had
- 12:15Speaker 1: third and thirty two. One of the plays they ran
- 12:18Speaker 1: a draw penalize themselves out of field goal range. You
- 12:22Speaker 1: never had to worry about these teams scoring because every
- 12:24Speaker 1: single time they got close, they found a way to
- 12:26Speaker 1: suck it up. The Lions are a big home dog,
- 12:29Speaker 1: and they do fight, they do bite kneecaps, and the
- 12:32Speaker 1: Vikings are not a team that can close anybody out.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Hello Detroit, exactly, you just said that, we like, we
- 12:45Speaker 1: have to take this number. The Vikings. If they win,
- 12:48Speaker 1: they win by three, or they maybe even the games
- 12:51Speaker 1: that they're dominating, they always let the teams back in
- 12:54Speaker 1: at least two These two have already played this season.
- 12:57Speaker 1: It was a close matchup that time around. Nothing change here.
- 13:01Speaker 1: We have a team with the Detroit on extended rest,
- 13:03Speaker 1: so they've had eleven days of prep for this game.
- 13:05Speaker 1: We'll take the seven, But detroits one of these teams,
- 13:08Speaker 1: like I never feel great back in it because I
- 13:10Speaker 1: know awful golf is so a big injury news. We
- 13:13Speaker 1: need to know more about Swift. That's that's a big
- 13:15Speaker 1: deal for this Detroit team. He's kind of what makes
- 13:17Speaker 1: them go. But you're giving me a touchdown against the Vikings.
- 13:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna bet it regardless, and it's not one of
- 13:23Speaker 1: my favorite bets I'm making this week, but I have
- 13:25Speaker 1: to bet it just because of that. That's a good
- 13:26Speaker 1: number to take against this Minnesota team. I'm not sure
- 13:34Speaker 1: extra prep time matters for the Lions. I mean, Jared Goff,
- 13:37Speaker 1: it's actually astonishing. That's how his career has fallen off
- 13:42Speaker 1: a cliff. This guy was throwing dimes for the Rams
- 13:46Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. Do you remember two the
- 13:50Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Rams play a game in l A
- 13:52Speaker 1: that was supposed to be in Mexico City. They had
- 13:54Speaker 1: to move it the game, it scored like a hundred
- 13:58Speaker 1: and twenty points. It was used to be sort of
- 14:01Speaker 1: the dawn of an age of these two amazing quarterbacks,
- 14:05Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes Jared Goff, this high flying offense for both
- 14:09Speaker 1: young genius versus old veteran genius. Patrick Mahomes took off.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Jared Goff basically cratered in the Super Bowl and hasn't
- 14:18Speaker 1: been heard from since. They gave him a hundred million
- 14:20Speaker 1: dollar contract and then the second he signed it, it's
- 14:23Speaker 1: like they were trying to get rid of him. Was
- 14:25Speaker 1: so lucky My super Bowl is Nick Foles. Like I
- 14:28Speaker 1: always look at it like Jimmy g could have won
- 14:30Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. Jimmy g Jimmy Garoppolo, he didn't, thank god.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Jared Goff could have won a Super Bowl, thank God
- 14:35Speaker 1: he didn't. So it's it's one of those I feel
- 14:37Speaker 1: so lucky because we have the weird egg in there.
- 14:39Speaker 1: Like every you look back on the history of the
- 14:41Speaker 1: Super Bowl last ten years, every quarterback kind of makes
- 14:43Speaker 1: sense to win it, except Nick Foles. So you'll never
- 14:46Speaker 1: hear me complain about terrible quarterbacks. It's just amazing New
- 14:50Speaker 1: York Giants at Miami Dolphins, The New York Football Giants
- 14:56Speaker 1: visiting the resurgent Miami Dolphins last week, and I remember,
- 15:00Speaker 1: bring this now, I said, two is looking better every
- 15:03Speaker 1: single week and not just thinking dunk better, but accurate better.
- 15:07Speaker 1: And what does he do this past week? One Giants
- 15:11Speaker 1: on the road, three point dogs. This approsed Joe's right now,
- 15:14Speaker 1: money coming in on the Giants, probably coming in on
- 15:18Speaker 1: the Dolphins. I man, should this be our foxhole? Let's
- 15:24Speaker 1: clide down into the fox hole? Are you fox holing
- 15:30Speaker 1: me right now? I am? I love the Giants so
- 15:32Speaker 1: much in this part. Oh my god, explain it to me.
- 15:35Speaker 1: We got a road team. They love to cover on
- 15:38Speaker 1: the road. Danny Danny Dimes loves go on the road.
- 15:40Speaker 1: This number I love the one was at three and
- 15:42Speaker 1: a half. Sadly, like you just said, the professionals have
- 15:44Speaker 1: betted down to three. Still love it at that number.
- 15:46Speaker 1: That's a key number. But we're looking at the matchup
- 15:48Speaker 1: here that you can look at the total. It's very low.
- 15:51Speaker 1: I think the bookmakers you're telling you these are two
- 15:54Speaker 1: very good defenses. Two has been better him and Waddle
- 15:57Speaker 1: that connection has been pretty outstanding. But coming to this matchup,
- 16:01Speaker 1: I like the shutdown side of this Giants team. We
- 16:04Speaker 1: saw what they did against this Egos team. They're they're
- 16:06Speaker 1: able to get pressure of their front four and let
- 16:09Speaker 1: their cornerbacks kind of shut down the receiver. So I
- 16:11Speaker 1: know that the Giants got a little lucky. They probably
- 16:13Speaker 1: should have lost the Eagles. That two Eagles had to
- 16:15Speaker 1: drop touchdowns in the final couple of sexs of the game.
- 16:18Speaker 1: It doesn't matter, like this number doesn't really reflect that.
- 16:20Speaker 1: It's still the public still gonna be coming in and
- 16:22Speaker 1: have you on Miami. So hopefully it gets back up
- 16:24Speaker 1: at three and a half. But I love it at three.
- 16:27Speaker 1: So I love that this is one of our fox
- 16:29Speaker 1: fell best just because not a lot of people are
- 16:31Speaker 1: gonna better just like last week the Giants. People just
- 16:33Speaker 1: are skeptical of this team and Daniel Jones, We're going
- 16:36Speaker 1: to the Fox Hill. We are going to the Fox
- 16:38Speaker 1: Folle with Danny Dimes and the New York Football Giants.
- 16:41Speaker 1: I don't mind it. As the guy who bet the
- 16:43Speaker 1: Giants plus four, I'm so smart. I was way ahead
- 16:45Speaker 1: of it better at twelve seven on Sunday afternoon. Let's
- 16:49Speaker 1: hear it for Danny Dimes. I don't mind it at all.
- 16:59Speaker 1: It's interesting one I have fallen a little bit in
- 17:02Speaker 1: love with this Miami team. And it's also interesting you
- 17:05Speaker 1: have two teams that covered this past week. That's true.
- 17:07Speaker 1: I look at the Miami being a little over value
- 17:09Speaker 1: right now. That was that game is more about camp
- 17:11Speaker 1: right Like cam just had an absolute meltdown, kept giving
- 17:14Speaker 1: them short fields and you know they took advantage of it.
- 17:17Speaker 1: So I just don't see the same thing playing out
- 17:19Speaker 1: here at the Giants. That game was brutal because that
- 17:22Speaker 1: Panthers game, the block punt and then consistent interceptions. They
- 17:26Speaker 1: just kept giving them giving away points. And that was
- 17:28Speaker 1: a gift. I told you Miami was a gift. You
- 17:30Speaker 1: don't want to hear it. I hate myself. Tampa Bay
- 17:34Speaker 1: Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons ten and a half Buccaneers ten
- 17:40Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. Why why is my first
- 17:43Speaker 1: instinct on this to bet the Falcons. You have to
- 17:46Speaker 1: go ahead and bet them, bet the money line right now?
- 17:48Speaker 1: I hate it. We have to do it though, just
- 17:51Speaker 1: absolutely gross. Like again, people are gonna hate our bets
- 17:53Speaker 1: this week. This is one of these that's like this
- 17:55Speaker 1: will probably one of our five come come Sunday, like
- 17:59Speaker 1: divisional match up, That was a huge win for this
- 18:02Speaker 1: Buckaneers team. We talked about they haven't been good on
- 18:04Speaker 1: the road this year. They hadn't covered. That was their
- 18:06Speaker 1: first cover of the year on the road. So we're
- 18:09Speaker 1: we're looking at a team that just played a really hard,
- 18:13Speaker 1: tough game against the Colts, now on the road again
- 18:15Speaker 1: playing against an Atlanta team that. Yeah, it's not ideal.
- 18:18Speaker 1: They're coming off a big win and cover, but they're
- 18:21Speaker 1: getting healthy, they're getting pieces back. Uh you know that.
- 18:24Speaker 1: The team's just different with Cordell Patterson. So Cordell Parterson's
- 18:27Speaker 1: back playing against a banged up secondary of this Bucks team,
- 18:30Speaker 1: Like we saw Carson Wentz had a day against that team.
- 18:34Speaker 1: Then Carson Wentz had his five turnovers, which is what
- 18:36Speaker 1: he likes to do. But I don't see Matt Ryan
- 18:38Speaker 1: having the same mistakes. Um, something still doesn't look right
- 18:42Speaker 1: with Brady. Like watching that game last week, he he
- 18:45Speaker 1: didn't make the plays that mattered down the stretch there.
- 18:47Speaker 1: But something just seems a little off with him. So
- 18:50Speaker 1: we're getting more than ten points ten and a half,
- 18:52Speaker 1: it's eleven and a a half at some books. Still sure,
- 18:55Speaker 1: so shop around for the snumber. But I love it,
- 18:58Speaker 1: like I love Atlanta in this pos This is way
- 19:00Speaker 1: too many points in the divisional matchup. It's so true
- 19:05Speaker 1: gross though, like we're not gonna have fun betting this.
- 19:07Speaker 1: We have to do it. Listen. Also, we promised the
- 19:11Speaker 1: people we'd be in Atlanta Falcons podcast. That's true, so
- 19:15Speaker 1: we can't get turn our backs. Now we have to
- 19:18Speaker 1: commit to that we haven't. By the way, is this
- 19:21Speaker 1: a signmon says no, I got another one. That's just gross.
- 19:24Speaker 1: You're gonna love You've got a sign and says in
- 19:27Speaker 1: mind though, I probably there for the Giants, but I
- 19:31Speaker 1: hate that I moved all three and a half. I
- 19:33Speaker 1: love the three and a half, all right, I mean
- 19:35Speaker 1: there's so many games we already like the Chargers plus
- 19:38Speaker 1: three and a half, the Lions plus seven. Um, I
- 19:42Speaker 1: don't think either of those are a final five. Agree
- 19:45Speaker 1: on the Giants and the Falcons. That is a I'm
- 19:48Speaker 1: making a note here final five just so I can
- 19:50Speaker 1: remind myself when we talk on Sunday morning, UM, that
- 19:56Speaker 1: I have a list of like what we talked about
- 19:59Speaker 1: on Tuesday, so I don't get Sunday mornings. It's hard
- 20:02Speaker 1: to figure it out because, like we just finished the show,
- 20:05Speaker 1: convinced me at Action Network HQ eleven a m Eastern
- 20:09Speaker 1: and we're trying to make decisions and we're both pressed
- 20:12Speaker 1: for time, and we feel like we've narrowed it down
- 20:16Speaker 1: and then we go Maybe we just go too fast
- 20:18Speaker 1: for me. I mean, we're killing it the past week.
- 20:20Speaker 1: We're eleven and three the past week, but past four
- 20:23Speaker 1: the three weeks. But um, so I gotta make better notes. Yeah,
- 20:27Speaker 1: I mean we could just like be like, all right,
- 20:29Speaker 1: I trust this guy. He's worked eight hours this week
- 20:31Speaker 1: while I celebrated Thanksgiving all week with my inn laws.
- 20:34Speaker 1: He probably knows I should take Miami the Giants here.
- 20:37Speaker 1: But again, you wanted Pittsburgh. I wasn't gonna fight you
- 20:39Speaker 1: on it because I bet on Pittsburgh. But I just
- 20:41Speaker 1: said to you, no pros are bet in this game.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Like I've heard no professional groups coming on Pittsburgh. That's
- 20:45Speaker 1: what made me so nervous. But no regrets. As soon
- 20:48Speaker 1: as they went down fourteen that me and you both
- 20:50Speaker 1: knew we were cooked. Like Roethlisberger, he just can't come
- 20:53Speaker 1: back unless there's a block punt and like a pick
- 20:55Speaker 1: by the other guy. So it's, uh, we're gonna talk
- 20:57Speaker 1: about Pittsburgh this week. We we we we kind of
- 21:00Speaker 1: messed up there. We we bought high on Pittsburgh and
- 21:03Speaker 1: we should have been selling. You did say no professional
- 21:06Speaker 1: groups have talked about Pittsburgh. You absolutely said that. Because
- 21:09Speaker 1: I asked, I didn't get it. I was like, you
- 21:11Speaker 1: guys don't like Pittsburgh, and it's like, no, fuck Pittsburgh.
- 21:13Speaker 1: I was like, all right, I own it. I made
- 21:17Speaker 1: a mistake. It cost us a game. That's all I
- 21:19Speaker 1: can say. We gotta move on. So I tell my kids,
- 21:22Speaker 1: you make the mistake, own it, apologize. It's easy to do.
- 21:26Speaker 1: No one's gonna think less of you. Just move on.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Indianapolis cults at Houston, Texans cults are eight and a
- 21:35Speaker 1: half point favorites on the road of the Texas God
- 21:38Speaker 1: damn it, and people are gonna see a pattern. This
- 21:41Speaker 1: is this week's money line around Robin is gonna be
- 21:43Speaker 1: so ugly. I love it, and this is gonna be
- 21:45Speaker 1: one of those teams. Houston, Baby, we one hundred have
- 21:49Speaker 1: to take Houston. Yeah, you love this number like it
- 21:52Speaker 1: was up in nine nine and a half. The pros
- 21:53Speaker 1: have already bett it down to eight eight and a half.
- 21:55Speaker 1: At certain books. We love this number. We will be
- 21:58Speaker 1: on Houston. This is they let us down last week,
- 22:01Speaker 1: No doubt that that hurt bad. But you gotta move on,
- 22:04Speaker 1: you gotta keep pushing forward. This is just too high
- 22:06Speaker 1: of a number for a divisional matchup where Carson went
- 22:09Speaker 1: to start and turn back into a pumpkin a little bit,
- 22:11Speaker 1: starting to have his turnovers, which we know Carson is
- 22:13Speaker 1: gonna do. Like he had a nice run there. I
- 22:15Speaker 1: think he was like fourteen touchdowns to interceptions. He's had
- 22:18Speaker 1: a bunch of picks these last couple of weeks. So
- 22:20Speaker 1: we'll take this Houston team in a really good, tough
- 22:23Speaker 1: divisional matchup. We knew that was going to happen, we did,
- 22:28Speaker 1: But I mean, like again, that's why I felt so
- 22:31Speaker 1: bad for Sean, Like Sean West move feeling so good.
- 22:33Speaker 1: He's up ten with the Colts. They had the ball
- 22:36Speaker 1: and he turns it over and the Bucks put up
- 22:38Speaker 1: what was it, seventeen straight points? Like that was that
- 22:42Speaker 1: that no cover? The Bears no cover And I had
- 22:45Speaker 1: the Browns no cover, Like I had the Browns three
- 22:47Speaker 1: and a half. That was really like like such gut
- 22:49Speaker 1: punches like last night I had it like the under
- 22:51Speaker 1: I didn't want to put it out because I was
- 22:52Speaker 1: just like, I'm so done with this week. I just
- 22:55Speaker 1: want to move on. It was that was a rough
- 22:57Speaker 1: week for a lot of people that had a lot
- 22:58Speaker 1: of back to words. Go. Yeah, there were a lot lot. Look,
- 23:03Speaker 1: you're talking about Sean Croner, who we do the show,
- 23:05Speaker 1: convinced me with and his best bet on Sunday was
- 23:08Speaker 1: the Colts plus three and a half um, which still
- 23:12Speaker 1: despite everything, even though and he's like and I love
- 23:14Speaker 1: him on the money line too, and he was right
- 23:17Speaker 1: until Carson Wentz started losing his grip, so to speak.
- 23:22Speaker 1: Even in the end, there was a chance until Leonard
- 23:24Speaker 1: Fournette just decided to close it out with the touchdown
- 23:26Speaker 1: which seven left. We talked about we loved the under
- 23:29Speaker 1: last week for the Panthers in Miami, and there were
- 23:32Speaker 1: a couple sort of plays at the end of the
- 23:34Speaker 1: half that ruined it. We loved the under for the
- 23:37Speaker 1: Paths and the Titans, at least I did. You didn't,
- 23:40Speaker 1: And they scored thirteen points in the final minute of
- 23:43Speaker 1: the first half. Yeah, I'm like, two turnovers in a draw,
- 23:50Speaker 1: Like it wasn't even it was just Fluke Place. It
- 23:52Speaker 1: was so much ugliness. Arizona Cardinals at Chicago Bears. The
- 23:58Speaker 1: Flying Cardinals fully healthy at the Bears minus seven and
- 24:04Speaker 1: a half. We like the fade teams off by weeks here.
- 24:07Speaker 1: It's been good to us all season. We would continue
- 24:09Speaker 1: that trend. People, seven and a half Bears team at home.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Take this number. I know how great the Cardinals are.
- 24:16Speaker 1: We're probably walking right into a sharp trap. Don't care.
- 24:19Speaker 1: You have to take the Bears at home against the
- 24:22Speaker 1: Cardinals team that we don't know where getting from Kyler.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Kyler is coming back off an injury that's kept him
- 24:26Speaker 1: out for multiple weeks at this point, so I'm expecting
- 24:29Speaker 1: them to be rusty. I expect them not to play
- 24:31Speaker 1: as well outside in the cold, frigid air of Chicago.
- 24:36Speaker 1: So seven and a half home team the Bears, we
- 24:39Speaker 1: have to take. It doesn't really matter either if it's
- 24:40Speaker 1: any Dalton, him and Justin Field aren't that different. If anything,
- 24:43Speaker 1: any doone is a little better. But we like the
- 24:45Speaker 1: upside of Field. It's like at any moment he could
- 24:47Speaker 1: take off for a ninety yard touchdown run. So it
- 24:49Speaker 1: doesn't matter to us. Use a quarterback for the Bears.
- 24:51Speaker 1: You just take this number. This doesn't feel like a
- 24:53Speaker 1: top five to me. No, no, no, we have we
- 24:57Speaker 1: have uglier games. I like better. You know we're talking
- 24:59Speaker 1: about the Bears and it being frigid. The other day
- 25:01Speaker 1: I was talking to my buddy Matt, who I mentioned
- 25:03Speaker 1: often on the show, and we were discussing, as you
- 25:06Speaker 1: and I, you, me and Matt Mitchell were before the podcast,
- 25:10Speaker 1: just how beautiful that Ohio State Michigan game looked. The imagery,
- 25:14Speaker 1: the shots, especially pre game, the snow falling the players
- 25:18Speaker 1: in the tunnel. You couldn't help it just be excited
- 25:21Speaker 1: as a fan, as a sports fan to watch that.
- 25:24Speaker 1: And Matt and I were like, as Bears fans, when's
- 25:26Speaker 1: the last time we had that experience? And we had
- 25:29Speaker 1: to go back to when we were in the stands
- 25:31Speaker 1: during the season, and uh, the Bears trouned. I think
- 25:37Speaker 1: it was the Giants in the opening round of the playoffs,
- 25:40Speaker 1: Sean Landetta Whift on a punt. We happened to be
- 25:42Speaker 1: sitting right there. That's how far back we have to go.
- 25:45Speaker 1: I was gonna say the Double Doink game for an
- 25:47Speaker 1: Eagles per sective was beautiful, like it was snowing there
- 25:49Speaker 1: in Chicago. It was just really pretty seen nighttime game
- 25:53Speaker 1: that your kicker missed the kick. I don't like you
- 25:57Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, at knew you Jets. Speaking of the Eagles,
- 26:02Speaker 1: they lost this past weekend and now they're visiting the
- 26:05Speaker 1: Jets as nearly a touchdown favorite. I don't know how
- 26:08Speaker 1: the Jets beat the Texas last week. I really don't.
- 26:11Speaker 1: I just don't know what happened. Chet, do you believe
- 26:12Speaker 1: in the butterfly effecture? Okay, so the Eagles they passed
- 26:16Speaker 1: on the guy named Justin Justin Jefferson, right, and they
- 26:19Speaker 1: took a guy named Reagor this past week had to
- 26:22Speaker 1: drop touchdowns in the end zone for us to win
- 26:24Speaker 1: a game. And the reason we drafted Davante Smith was
- 26:27Speaker 1: because we missed and didn't take Justin Jefferson, because we
- 26:30Speaker 1: didn't take DK Metcalf. Because of that, Michael Parsons is
- 26:33Speaker 1: now on the Cowboys, who might be the best defensive
- 26:36Speaker 1: player as a rookie in the league. A lot a
- 26:39Speaker 1: lot of trickle down from that little mistake that the
- 26:41Speaker 1: Eagles made. Butterfly effect, and here we are once again
- 26:44Speaker 1: the butterfly fact. This Eagles matchup might be Minshew, did
- 26:48Speaker 1: you see that it might be Minshew. Hurts might be
- 26:49Speaker 1: out for this game. So I don't know what to
- 26:51Speaker 1: do here. If it's Minshew, I don't I don't know.
- 26:53Speaker 1: I guess I take the Jets because you know, we
- 26:56Speaker 1: know we're getting from them, But I so badly want
- 26:59Speaker 1: to take the US here, like this Jets team they
- 27:02Speaker 1: are good, Like that was more about the Texans beating
- 27:05Speaker 1: themselves and then the Jets really winning that game. But
- 27:08Speaker 1: so that's a lot of points. Take a minus seven
- 27:11Speaker 1: with Minshew. I don't know. So i'mna have to wait
- 27:13Speaker 1: and see who the quarterback is for the It was
- 27:15Speaker 1: probably really better on this game. Yeah, I think that's right.
- 27:17Speaker 1: That's an interesting way to look at it. With Justin Jefferson,
- 27:20Speaker 1: it really was a miss, I mean, just a complete
- 27:23Speaker 1: But who do they draft instead? That's what I'm saying, Reagor,
- 27:25Speaker 1: they took that kid a two touchdown drops. They didn't
- 27:28Speaker 1: take him before Justin Jefferson one pick before. I'm telling
- 27:31Speaker 1: an Eagles fans life, you think you got a bad
- 27:32Speaker 1: as a Bears fan, Chad, you don't want to Some
- 27:34Speaker 1: of our craft is ridiculous. Wow, that is a serious miss,
- 27:38Speaker 1: horrible miss. And then they have video footage of the
- 27:41Speaker 1: Vikings GMS like laughing at us, like celebrating after we
- 27:43Speaker 1: took Reagor and they moved up to take Jefferson. Wow. No,
- 27:48Speaker 1: it's bad. No, it's it's really bad. And now a
- 27:54Speaker 1: word from our friends at Fandor. The NFL playoff race

- 29:49Speaker 1: Jaguars at Los Angeles Rams at the Jaguars who have
- 29:54Speaker 1: our ten point Dogs on the road. This is like
- 29:57Speaker 1: a kind of a pass for me. It will be
- 30:01Speaker 1: all over the Jags. Over the Jags money sign. Yeah,
- 30:04Speaker 1: the Rams. We don't know what's wrong with Stafford. Stafford
- 30:06Speaker 1: can't hit open guys two feet in front of them.
- 30:08Speaker 1: They put out all these elements of all of his
- 30:10Speaker 1: injuries before the game. We kind of knew about it
- 30:12Speaker 1: going in. That's why I love Green Bay. Going into
- 30:14Speaker 1: that matchup, I was just like, you're gonna banged up
- 30:16Speaker 1: Stafford outdoors. This guy's an indoor quarterback man. Something's wrong
- 30:21Speaker 1: with this Rams team. So if we're going just fading
- 30:24Speaker 1: all the negativity, everything, all the bad juju that's going
- 30:27Speaker 1: on right now, I love the Jags. The only worry
- 30:30Speaker 1: about right now the Jaguars is Urban Meyer might have
- 30:32Speaker 1: a foot up the door. Like by the time this heirs,
- 30:34Speaker 1: he could already be a Notre Dame as a head coach.
- 30:36Speaker 1: So that's a little scary um betting the Jaguars this week.
- 30:39Speaker 1: But I'm betting them like you're you're giving me way
- 30:42Speaker 1: too many points with a team that they're bad. No doubt,
- 30:46Speaker 1: the Jaguars are bad, but their defense isn't terrible like
- 30:49Speaker 1: their defense kind of keeps them in games. So Stafford's
- 30:52Speaker 1: really slacking right now. I could get the kind of
- 30:54Speaker 1: the same matchup where the Bills just kind of gave
- 30:56Speaker 1: that game to the Jaguars, and we could get the
- 30:58Speaker 1: same thing from Stafford here. Yeah, take take the Jaguars,
- 31:01Speaker 1: you take the points, and I'll probably have their money
- 31:03Speaker 1: line a couple of runners. Money you're on Brown Robbins.
- 31:06Speaker 1: Oh my god, you're gonna have a Texans, Falcons, Jaguars,
- 31:13Speaker 1: the Bears. You're disgusting. Yeah, it's it's really gross. I
- 31:19Speaker 1: love this week. How much money do you think you'll
- 31:23Speaker 1: end up putting into money line around Robins? I mean
- 31:26Speaker 1: it depends on the week. I would say that MAXI
- 31:28Speaker 1: amounts like twenty k, Like I'll do a bunch of
- 31:30Speaker 1: thousand dollar ones, but looking at this week, I'll probably
- 31:33Speaker 1: be a little lower because these odds are so high,
- 31:35Speaker 1: Like all I need is to hit maybe three combos
- 31:37Speaker 1: and you're getting your money back and then some um.
- 31:40Speaker 1: So that's why I love these kind of weeks where
- 31:41Speaker 1: it's huge dogs. Like last week went three and two
- 31:44Speaker 1: and I barely made a profit just because all those
- 31:46Speaker 1: home dogs are so short. It was just it was
- 31:48Speaker 1: a tough week for that. It must be nice to
- 31:50Speaker 1: make a profit. Yeah, it's been a good month. Washington
- 31:54Speaker 1: football team at Las Vegas Raiders. Washington football team. Big
- 31:59Speaker 1: win last night, big big win for the fighting Taylor Hinakys.
- 32:04Speaker 1: There's a lot to like about this team. I like
- 32:06Speaker 1: him as a quarterback. He's fun to watch. They are
- 32:08Speaker 1: on the road visiting the Raiders plus two and a half.
- 32:12Speaker 1: I mean, the Raiders look good against the Cowboys. Did
- 32:15Speaker 1: this weird line makes me want to take the football
- 32:17Speaker 1: team right? I don't really get why this line is
- 32:20Speaker 1: not three. I know the money has been coming in
- 32:22Speaker 1: heavy on Vegas at minus two. It feels that the
- 32:25Speaker 1: same thing I like lap in last week with me
- 32:26Speaker 1: and the Texans. Like I see a line, Oh, they're
- 32:29Speaker 1: giving me under a field goal for a home team here.
- 32:32Speaker 1: It seems like a trap. I feel like we should
- 32:33Speaker 1: probably either stay away you you take Washington here. It
- 32:37Speaker 1: does feel like a trap. Like I immediately look at
- 32:39Speaker 1: this and think, of course, I'm taking the Raiders as
- 32:41Speaker 1: less than a field goal. What are the bookmakers trying
- 32:44Speaker 1: to tell me her? That's what I'm saying. I think
- 32:47Speaker 1: they're trying to second sent home teams have just not
- 32:49Speaker 1: been good this year. Um, last week was a good
- 32:52Speaker 1: week for ROM teams. I pretty much every bet I
- 32:53Speaker 1: made was a home team. Uh. I don't know this,
- 32:57Speaker 1: This line stinks. That's why I probably would just pass Cler.
- 33:00Speaker 1: I would take Washington. I don't don't trust what the
- 33:02Speaker 1: bookmakers are doing it. I know they're gonna get a
- 33:04Speaker 1: ton of Vegas money. At this point, I hate this game. Yeah,
- 33:08Speaker 1: we can pass. Cut to Sunday morning. We're all in
- 33:12Speaker 1: on the Raiders. No chance. San Francisco forty Niners at
- 33:17Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. This is getting interesting now, the forty Niners
- 33:21Speaker 1: visiting the Seahawks. Forty Niners are definitely favorites. There's a
- 33:25Speaker 1: wide disparity in numbers, anywhere from two to three and
- 33:28Speaker 1: a half. But you know, is this one of those
- 33:31Speaker 1: games where Kyle Shanahan has historically not been that great
- 33:36Speaker 1: as a favorite on the road. The Seahawks are clearly
- 33:39Speaker 1: a dumpster fire right now. But is there an over
- 33:42Speaker 1: correction based on the fact of what we saw last
- 33:45Speaker 1: night that there's going to be value on the Seahawks?
- 33:49Speaker 1: Is three and a half point home dogs right now?
- 33:52Speaker 1: Every week I keep saying the same any thing to you.
- 33:54Speaker 1: I don't trust Russ and I think he came back
- 33:56Speaker 1: too soon from the surgery. I've just been betting against
- 33:59Speaker 1: him and watch and him miss the guys like wide
- 34:01Speaker 1: open right in front of him, and he just does
- 34:03Speaker 1: not look like the same person. Everything looks off with him.
- 34:06Speaker 1: Keep fading. I know it's gonna be a big public
- 34:07Speaker 1: bet with the forty niners, but not not putting another
- 34:10Speaker 1: dime on the Seahawks until it's Geno Smith. I just
- 34:12Speaker 1: don't trust Ross and maybe he will get healthy in
- 34:15Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, but he rushed back. He's doing
- 34:18Speaker 1: too much. He's been hitting it too. I saw him
- 34:20Speaker 1: like trying to shake it out last night after you
- 34:22Speaker 1: hit a guy's helmet with it. Just do not like it.
- 34:24Speaker 1: It feels like like what you just said that the
- 34:26Speaker 1: Seahawks right now, they're probably the worst, one of the
- 34:28Speaker 1: worst team's NFC. So not not putting any money. Usually
- 34:31Speaker 1: I would love this position for the Seahawks. I'd be
- 34:33Speaker 1: all in on it. But no, staying away. We haven't
- 34:37Speaker 1: gotten a Simon says, yeah, it's coming baby, all right,
- 34:39Speaker 1: Well we only got three games left. Yeah, it's probably
- 34:42Speaker 1: one of those though. Don't give me your attitude. I
- 34:44Speaker 1: know that was just that was that you just stopped me. There.
- 34:49Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers Ravens again, there's a disparity here.
- 34:55Speaker 1: Two and a half to three and a half. Oh god, yeah, no,
- 34:59Speaker 1: I'm in, says Pittsburgh. No love it. Why explain it
- 35:14Speaker 1: to me? What are you hearing? Why would I do
- 35:17Speaker 1: this because I explained you last week that we had to.
- 35:21Speaker 1: We're supposed to stay away. Wait a week. This is
- 35:23Speaker 1: when you take Pittsburgh. We have the Ravens off for
- 35:26Speaker 1: primetime win. Everyone's out on Pittsburgh without realizing this is
- 35:31Speaker 1: just a classic divisional matchup. Whoever wins this game is
- 35:34Speaker 1: gonna win by three. The bookmakers are giving us a
- 35:36Speaker 1: gift at three and a half. This is such a
- 35:39Speaker 1: pro number. The public's in a coming so heavy on
- 35:41Speaker 1: the Ravens as well. I love this game so much
- 35:44Speaker 1: so if your books to us three and a half,
- 35:46Speaker 1: maybe you're lucky. You can find a four out there,
- 35:48Speaker 1: grab it, grab it right now. But just wait this
- 35:51Speaker 1: number we'll keep getting bet up. We got like COVID
- 35:53Speaker 1: stuff going on. I think what might have got put
- 35:55Speaker 1: on the COVID list. Just just wait, You're gonna get
- 35:58Speaker 1: a good number of this Pittsburgh team. I love this matchup.
- 36:01Speaker 1: It's gross, dude, but I'm telling you this is you
- 36:03Speaker 1: have to make these kind of bets in December, Like
- 36:05Speaker 1: this is the bookmakers know exactly what they're doing laying
- 36:09Speaker 1: this trap. Look look at you. You're squaming. You don't
- 36:11Speaker 1: that's how bad. You don't want to bet it like
- 36:13Speaker 1: they want all. It's like, that's how you have to
- 36:16Speaker 1: bet it. Man, I'm telling you, it's such a good number.
- 36:18Speaker 1: As we speak, I see, uh the Action Network odds
- 36:23Speaker 1: board lighting up and everyone has access to this Action
- 36:25Speaker 1: Network dot com. Just go to the public betting page.
- 36:29Speaker 1: Bets coming in on the Steelers as we speak. Yeah,
- 36:34Speaker 1: it's I mean, I would say, three different guys I
- 36:37Speaker 1: talked to this morning, I'll bet that on Monday and
- 36:39Speaker 1: Monday night. Wow. Yeah, the pros. The pros are gonna
- 36:43Speaker 1: love this matchup. The Ravens are probably one of the
- 36:46Speaker 1: more fraudulent number one seeds we've ever had. Like them,
- 36:49Speaker 1: And like when we said that about Tennessee, we took
- 36:51Speaker 1: a lot of shift for that. Tennessee has lost what
- 36:53Speaker 1: two games in a row now the Ravens, it's gonna
- 36:55Speaker 1: catch up to them, like they they can't keep getting
- 36:58Speaker 1: away with it. It's crazy like game. I think it
- 37:01Speaker 1: was the first time in FL history a quarterback at
- 37:03Speaker 1: four picks and a team like one by whatever more
- 37:06Speaker 1: than a field goal. So something to keep in the
- 37:09Speaker 1: back of your mind. Right Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs.
- 37:14Speaker 1: We love the Broncos their ten point underdogs at the Chiefs.
- 37:18Speaker 1: Right now, Denver Broncos, Oh my god, I hate this one.
- 37:23Speaker 1: It's like the meeting of two perfect storms. Teddy Bridgewater
- 37:26Speaker 1: underdog on the road playing against Andy re team off
- 37:30Speaker 1: of bye week. What the hell do we do here?
- 37:32Speaker 1: It's so hard. I will tell you right now that
- 37:34Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a reversal going on here.
- 37:36Speaker 1: The Broncos are getting the majority of the bets. Yeah,
- 37:39Speaker 1: but the money is coming in on the Chiefs. Wow,
- 37:43Speaker 1: that's actually shocking. So yeah, the pros are looking the
- 37:45Speaker 1: same way as me. It's Andy Reid off a bye week, Like,
- 37:48Speaker 1: I hate betting against him off a bye It's it's
- 37:50Speaker 1: the worst. So I'm gonna be taking Teddy. You're giving
- 37:54Speaker 1: me ten points, I'll walk right into this trap. I
- 37:57Speaker 1: can't not do it. Too many points in divisional map
- 38:00Speaker 1: chop I I'm an idiot, and this feels like the
- 38:03Speaker 1: bookmakers are telling us to take the cheeps, but I
- 38:05Speaker 1: cannot do it. That's that's crazy for them to get
- 38:08Speaker 1: that many points, Like they only scored nineteen points against
- 38:11Speaker 1: a Dallas defense that gave up like thirty five, six,
- 38:14Speaker 1: thirty six points or thirty three points to Laraders. So
- 38:17Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't really understand um all the
- 38:20Speaker 1: cheap respect here. Maybe Teddy's more hurt than we know.
- 38:23Speaker 1: That could be part of the reason this line so big,
- 38:25Speaker 1: but we don't know that as we're sitting here on Tuesday.
- 38:28Speaker 1: So to me, you're getting a great number with Teddy.
- 38:30Speaker 1: I'll be taking this ten points. Yeah. Defense, it's just
- 38:34Speaker 1: they're solid. They've been solid all year. New England Patriots
- 38:45Speaker 1: at Buffalo Bills. The Patriots visiting Matt Mitchell's Bills. The
- 38:54Speaker 1: Patriots are three point dogs right now. Would you make
- 38:58Speaker 1: the Patriots favorite at home against the Chiefs playoffs a
- 39:02Speaker 1: regular season? Regular season yeah, but not the class No
- 39:07Speaker 1: playoffs is different. It's just a different game. I might
- 39:10Speaker 1: be giving shipped to the Chiefs right now. But we've
- 39:12Speaker 1: seen them doing multiple years. The only thing that's ever
- 39:15Speaker 1: stopped the Chiefs is Tom Brady, Like you beat them
- 39:18Speaker 1: the FC Championship Game and beat them the Super Bowl.
- 39:20Speaker 1: So love, love, love the Chiefs and the playoffs. But
- 39:23Speaker 1: there's no denying right now that Patriots are one of
- 39:25Speaker 1: the hottest teams on football. The Patriots are visiting the Bills,
- 39:28Speaker 1: they're underdogs. A lot of people would say, clearly, this
- 39:32Speaker 1: is going to be the battle for the a f
- 39:34Speaker 1: C East. Couldn't be more down the road. What are
- 39:37Speaker 1: we looking at here? And Mitch will play that Bills music. Yeah,
- 39:42Speaker 1: happy now happen now, making it happy now? Spirit, a
- 39:50Speaker 1: lot of spirit, spirit happen now. We're all in on
- 39:56Speaker 1: the Bills. You love the Bills here? What a gift?
- 39:59Speaker 1: Yeah my us three? What a treat from the sports books?
- 40:02Speaker 1: People forget okay, it's it's all hype week right now
- 40:04Speaker 1: from Mac Jones. Go on your phones right now you're
- 40:07Speaker 1: sitting here, people, and go look at who the Patriots
- 40:09Speaker 1: have beaten during this historical run. They're on No, they're
- 40:13Speaker 1: they're they're not beating good teams. And the Bills. I
- 40:17Speaker 1: know they've had their issues this year. Josh Allen hasn't
- 40:20Speaker 1: really looked like what we talked about he did last year,
- 40:22Speaker 1: and we talked about it's his footwork. He's not thrown
- 40:24Speaker 1: on bounce. He's not setting his feet undneath him when
- 40:27Speaker 1: he's throwing. That's why he's throwing so many interceptions. God,
- 40:30Speaker 1: I love this matchup so much. This is the best
- 40:33Speaker 1: time to take the Bills. Like the Patriots. We've been
- 40:36Speaker 1: trying to catch them on this run. They're on here
- 40:38Speaker 1: like last week. I really had to convince you to
- 40:40Speaker 1: take them. I understand why you were like, no, this
- 40:42Speaker 1: is this is why you take Tennessee. This is so
- 40:44Speaker 1: blah blah blah, and I just kept saying you Tennessee
- 40:46Speaker 1: doesn't have the weapons to really compete in this game.
- 40:48Speaker 1: The Bills do, and the Bills. This is interesting. It's
- 40:51Speaker 1: come down this much because that means professionals are coming
- 40:54Speaker 1: in on the Patriots. That's not public moving that number
- 40:56Speaker 1: on the Patriots, that's pros moving that number. So maybe
- 40:58Speaker 1: that might give me a little hesitant. It's to like
- 41:00Speaker 1: really hammer this Bill's number. But wow, primetime game, you
- 41:05Speaker 1: have the more veteran team in the Bills at home.
- 41:07Speaker 1: I love it. I love it, love it, love it.
- 41:09Speaker 1: So I will be all over this bills and minus three.
- 41:12Speaker 1: The difference in your confidence level today versus a month
- 41:16Speaker 1: ago is insane. Oh yeah, I mean I was fucking
- 41:20Speaker 1: getting smacked around, brother. I mean, I wish I could
- 41:23Speaker 1: act like I didn't bet real money. But yeah, if
- 41:25Speaker 1: you're losing six figures on a Colts game in the
- 41:28Speaker 1: final minute, you're gonna be You're gonna be hurting a
- 41:30Speaker 1: little bit, my friends. So are any of these bets
- 41:33Speaker 1: gonna be one of your four biggest bets of the year.
- 41:36Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe, like there's there's a couple of
- 41:39Speaker 1: games here I really do love. I won't make a
- 41:41Speaker 1: big bet like that on Tuesday, especially with COVID going on,
- 41:44Speaker 1: Like it's too much to bet the risks. I'll probably
- 41:47Speaker 1: I'll know more by next show for sure. When I
- 41:50Speaker 1: have to like stuff, you know, I have to do it,
- 41:51Speaker 1: I just send it in to get it approved. So
- 41:53Speaker 1: there's two games on mine right now, but I don't
- 41:56Speaker 1: force it so like if they get rejected, it's so
- 41:57Speaker 1: biggie Like there's always gonna be other opportunities. But I'm
- 42:00Speaker 1: high right now, So I'm hoping they just let it,
- 42:02Speaker 1: they let me approve it, just because I've been on
- 42:04Speaker 1: a really good run last couple of weeks with these
- 42:06Speaker 1: dogs and this this week is no different. I just
- 42:08Speaker 1: these lines are so inflated. That's that's what we talked
- 42:11Speaker 1: about the time. My favorite thing about sports betting being
- 42:13Speaker 1: legalized across the country. There's some games I get an
- 42:16Speaker 1: extra two three points of value on these dogs, and
- 42:18Speaker 1: that's an extra plus two hundreds sometimes on their money line.
- 42:21Speaker 1: So this is the definition of the public might be
- 42:25Speaker 1: just absolutely destroyed after this week. I mean, they've had
- 42:27Speaker 1: a bad month, this this week really is lining up
- 42:30Speaker 1: for just an absolute whale of a week for the
- 42:33Speaker 1: sports books. Well, if I had to guess, I'd say
- 42:35Speaker 1: the two games are probably the Falcons and the Steelers.
- 42:41Speaker 1: Maybe wow, all right, Well we'll find out on Thursday.
- 42:45Speaker 1: I mean, how gross does it feel to even say that?
- 42:47Speaker 1: Oh God, hear it out loud. It's disgusting. It's disgusting.
- 42:50Speaker 1: It's like, that's why people shouldn't bet. All right. I
- 42:55Speaker 1: feel like we've got a pretty good beat on five
- 42:57Speaker 1: that we like though. Yeah, Niance, Falcons, Steelers, Texans, Bears,
- 43:05Speaker 1: Broncos Bills. It's a good lineup right there. Yeah, yeah,
- 43:09Speaker 1: I like that. That is a good lineup. All right.
- 43:13Speaker 1: We got our foxhol that is um the Giants, right,
- 43:17Speaker 1: that was the Giants, and we got our Simon says,
- 43:20Speaker 1: that is the Steelers. I forgot who we did for
- 43:23Speaker 1: scoochro Lett. Does anybody remember who we did for Scoocher? Wait?
- 43:26Speaker 1: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait. Matt Mitchell,
- 43:29Speaker 1: do you have anything you want to say about the
- 43:31Speaker 1: Bills and the Paths in this Marquis Monday night matchup
- 43:33Speaker 1: that will define football for a generation. In the Paris
- 43:38Speaker 1: of Western New York. The Bills off a huge nationally
- 43:42Speaker 1: televised when coming home for a high stakes, money night
- 43:46Speaker 1: football showdown against there our tribal as a favorite. I
- 43:51Speaker 1: can't see anything going around? Sounds great, I can't, well,
- 43:54Speaker 1: I should sounds like I should get my expectations sky high.
- 43:58Speaker 1: We're all according to Simon, you should it. It was
- 44:01Speaker 1: the worst thing I've heard in ages, hearing him say
- 44:03Speaker 1: that I want to puke my guts out into this
- 44:05Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's trash can by um, but also Go Bills,
- 44:10Speaker 1: very excited. Go Bills. Who do we have for Scoot Roulette.
- 44:14Speaker 1: Who do we take? Last week? I always forget you
- 44:16Speaker 1: took the Denver Broncos and Simon took the New York Giants.
- 44:19Speaker 1: All right, that sounds right. We have some controversy chat
- 44:21Speaker 1: Apparently week eleven, you took the Saints. He took the
- 44:24Speaker 1: Saints against the Eagles. I would have lost them, right,
- 44:28Speaker 1: So people are really upset. I said, Chad's not a
- 44:30Speaker 1: con artist. Chad just as old. He doesn't remember who
- 44:32Speaker 1: he took. People really thought you were trying to scan me.
- 44:35Speaker 1: I just forgot. Come on, you're listening to the show
- 44:39Speaker 1: and they don't know that I don't have con in
- 44:42Speaker 1: my body and you just forgot like people are acting
- 44:45Speaker 1: like you were trying to pull one up on me.
- 44:46Speaker 1: Was like, you technically shouldn't have gone first last week
- 44:48Speaker 1: you had lost on the Saints. But that's okay, listen,
- 44:51Speaker 1: if that's the case, then go first this week. I
- 44:53Speaker 1: want you to have it because I'm not a con artist.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Just that. Why the fact that Simon and I have
- 44:58Speaker 1: jobs because of Chad so good proofpoint that he is
- 45:01Speaker 1: not a con artist exactly. Maybe I'm the one getting cold. Yeah,
- 45:07Speaker 1: damn it. I mean I guess I have to do it.
- 45:10Speaker 1: I have to take Pittsburgh three and a half. Oh
- 45:12Speaker 1: my god, you're gross. That is disgusting. All right, since
- 45:17Speaker 1: you're taking the Steelers three and a half for Scooch Roulette,
- 45:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Atlanta Falcons. There you go. Yeah,
- 45:26Speaker 1: I'm going to Falcons plus ten and a half. I
- 45:28Speaker 1: guess it should be noted by the way, I did
- 45:31Speaker 1: get a lovely text from everybody's favorite bookmaker, bookmaker to
- 45:35Speaker 1: the world, Bob Scucci Thanksgiving. He wishes everybody well. He
- 45:38Speaker 1: misses us all. He's a big fan of the show.
- 45:41Speaker 1: He's just the best. Talk about not being a con artist.
- 45:45Speaker 1: He's got to hop on. Man, he's the classiest ever.
- 45:47Speaker 1: Should bring him off for a Christmas edition. He won't
- 45:49Speaker 1: do it. I've asked him to come on. He won't
- 45:51Speaker 1: come back on. Well, here's the problem. I think I've
- 45:54Speaker 1: said this. He like he's a total suit now. He
- 45:58Speaker 1: doesn't really pay attention to the game games. He doesn't
- 46:00Speaker 1: pay attention to the lines, so he doesn't feel he
- 46:03Speaker 1: can speak with authority on the topic. But maybe we'll
- 46:07Speaker 1: just bring him on. It's like, say, hi, all your yeah,
- 46:12Speaker 1: we'll do that, Bob Scucci. If you're listening, we don't care.
- 46:16Speaker 1: If you don't know about the games, we don't care
- 46:18Speaker 1: if you don't want to talk about the NFL. The
- 46:21Speaker 1: hardcore fans of the show miss you. We want to
- 46:23Speaker 1: hear about you. I want to know how you will
- 46:25Speaker 1: missus scoocher doing. We just want to check in, especially
- 46:28Speaker 1: around the holidays. We love you. Bob, join the show
- 46:30Speaker 1: one more time for all time's sake. I'll try to.
- 46:33Speaker 1: I'll try to do it. I'll remind him. All right, listen,
- 46:37Speaker 1: our foxhol is already forgot the Foxhol. See I'm not
- 46:41Speaker 1: conning anybody. I just took bad notes. Okay. Foxhol was
- 46:46Speaker 1: the Giants plus three, Simon says, bet the Steelers plus
- 46:49Speaker 1: three and a half. Scoot Roulette Simon on the Steelers,
- 46:52Speaker 1: chat on the Falcons. We've narrowed down the board. We
- 46:55Speaker 1: will be back on Thursday. Things will have changed. We
- 46:59Speaker 1: might get one assignment's biggest bets of the year. Until then,
