- 0:00Speaker 1: Yep. Inside, I want to kill myself. We're on OWN

- 0:08Speaker 2: It was just complete bullshit.
- 0:10Speaker 1: So that's that's I'm gonna start off this show horrible
- 0:13Speaker 1: Sunday one and five.
- 0:14Speaker 2: I don't even know what to tell you above that.
- 0:17Speaker 2: I just don't want to do this anymore. I have
- 0:19Speaker 2: never seen anything like this. Man with the slump continuing.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Two straight losses, not a good day at all. Own four,
- 0:28Speaker 2: I have not had a good season.
- 0:31Speaker 1: Man with wookends the slump that I'm on, and the
- 0:35Speaker 1: slump continues, I've reached a new peak.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Actually, I'm gonna.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Burn my bruins hat Man, I don't know what is
- 0:43Speaker 1: going on with the Bruins arch hape?
- 0:45Speaker 2: Is that what it is? I don't even know it's
- 0:47Speaker 2: March ninth, I think who even knows? Man, I don't
- 0:51Speaker 2: know what data is anymore. But I don't even know
- 0:53Speaker 2: what data is anymore. Man, back with you after the
- 0:57Speaker 2: worst day that I could.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Possibly have, Back with you as I always am.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Until I die at least oh and two. Yesterday and
- 1:06Speaker 2: yesterday did not go well for me.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Own five the worst month that I've ever had in
- 1:11Speaker 1: my eighteen years doing this.
- 1:13Speaker 2: I don't know what to even tell you about this anymore.
- 1:15Speaker 1: The slump, the slump discontinuous, the slump continues.
- 1:20Speaker 2: 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
- 1:33Speaker 1: sewed back with you. This is better off dead. Monday,
- 1:37Speaker 1: September twenty nine. This is gonna be a pretty short episode.
- 1:40Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna rant about what happened yesterday, which
- 1:43Speaker 1: was a winning day, but it should have been a
- 1:45Speaker 1: lot better than it was. And uh, we'll talk about
- 1:48Speaker 1: Monday Night football and that's about it. Thanks for anybody
- 1:52Speaker 1: who was hanging out with in the Major League Baseball
- 1:56Speaker 1: playoff bracket special last night, which my picks are gonna
- 1:59Speaker 1: be on that. It's just very difficult to predict that shit,
- 2:02Speaker 1: So go check it out.
- 2:03Speaker 2: If you want to. It's up on the channel. Yesterday
- 2:06Speaker 2: we won.
- 2:06Speaker 1: We went four and three, so the win streak does continue,
- 2:10Speaker 1: almost back to even on the year finally, which is
- 2:13Speaker 1: not that bad. But it started out it was looking
- 2:16Speaker 1: like it was gonna be an absolute monster day. I
- 2:19Speaker 1: feel like that happened in the last two days like
- 2:22Speaker 1: Giants got there the win. That was the most fun
- 2:24Speaker 1: one because I like Jackson Dart Giants with an outright win.
- 2:27Speaker 1: I don't know if there's ever a point in the
- 2:29Speaker 1: game where they were not covering very low scoring game,
- 2:32Speaker 1: they get the win.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Jackson Darts debut game. I like it. It's fun.
- 2:37Speaker 1: We had an even easier time winning with the Patriot.
- 2:40Speaker 1: It's just an absolute blowout win.
- 2:42Speaker 2: There no sweat at all.
- 2:44Speaker 1: They had a defensive touchdown almost right away, and then
- 2:46Speaker 1: it was just floodgates open. I played their defensive fantasy too,
- 2:50Speaker 1: and I am winning going into tonight.
- 2:52Speaker 2: So in my main league, I'm on the verge of three.
- 2:55Speaker 1: And one here if my team can finish it off here.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons also got out to an early lead and
- 3:01Speaker 1: they did not surrender it, so that was a win
- 3:04Speaker 1: as well. They only wound up winning by seven, but
- 3:06Speaker 1: they were up by multiple scores throughout.
- 3:09Speaker 2: A lot of that game.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Then everything started going fucking hay wire. We knew we
- 3:14Speaker 1: were gonna lose on the Tampa.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Bay Rays one. I mean that was just bad.
- 3:17Speaker 1: I mean they were down five to one early, they
- 3:19Speaker 1: clawed back and made it five to four, and then
- 3:22Speaker 1: their bullpen actually was a huge problem in the game,
- 3:25Speaker 1: so that was not really what I expected. They wound
- 3:27Speaker 1: up getting blown out in the game.
- 3:29Speaker 2: That was a loser.
- 3:30Speaker 1: I don't think any of the other games that I
- 3:32Speaker 1: had yesterday should have been losers. Of course we had
- 3:35Speaker 1: to be on the Indianapolis game. That was my last
- 3:38Speaker 1: addition to my to my slate. I was thinking about
- 3:41Speaker 1: not including it. That would have been the last one
- 3:43Speaker 1: I added. It should have been a winner in Indianapolis.
- 3:46Speaker 1: They basically had a wire to wire cover in that game. Man,
- 3:48Speaker 1: they were winning and or tied I think the entire
- 3:51Speaker 1: way up until they were winning twenty to thirteen in
- 3:56Speaker 1: the fourth quarter.
- 3:57Speaker 2: So it's like in the.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Middle of the fourth you're up, You're you have a
- 4:00Speaker 1: plus three and a half on that I mean, that's
- 4:02Speaker 1: like you're pretty much gonna win that thing. The Rams
- 4:06Speaker 1: did wind up tying it very late in the game,
- 4:09Speaker 1: I think, with like a probably less than a minute, no,
- 4:11Speaker 1: not less than like less than a few minutes left
- 4:13Speaker 1: in the game. Now, all of a sudden, it's twenty twenty,
- 4:17Speaker 1: twenty twenty, the Crime show, the True Crime Show. Then
- 4:21Speaker 1: Indianapolis starts driving again, and you're thinking, Okay, get a
- 4:25Speaker 1: game winning score here, and we're gonna win this game outright.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Still, they have this huge run by Jonathan Taylor.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Incredible run, just had this crazy spin move bouncing off
- 4:37Speaker 1: the tackles, unbelievable, like a fifty something yard run touchdown.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Indianapolis looks like they're probably gonna win this game now.
- 4:45Speaker 1: At least you're in a very great position to cover
- 4:47Speaker 1: the spread at that point. No, it gets called back
- 4:50Speaker 1: on a holding call. It a complete ghost holding. So
- 4:54Speaker 1: that's a situation where I do think that there's some
- 4:56Speaker 1: bullshit rigging going on there, even though I don't know
- 5:00Speaker 1: if the books I think wanted Indianapolis in that game though,
- 5:03Speaker 1: because the Rams were the public side, so I don't know, man,
- 5:06Speaker 1: but that was a bullshit call and it erased an
- 5:09Speaker 1: incredible touchdown that basically would have sealed the Indianapolis cover
- 5:13Speaker 1: and probably an outright win there. Instead, they don't get
- 5:18Speaker 1: the fifty yard touchdown run and they get docked ten
- 5:20Speaker 1: yards and now they're back on their side of midfield.
- 5:23Speaker 1: They wind up having to punt the ball, and then
- 5:25Speaker 1: immediately after the punt, eighty eight yard touchdown pass from
- 5:29Speaker 1: the Rams and they hadn't really done anything on offense
- 5:32Speaker 1: the entire game to that extent, and it was to
- 5:35Speaker 1: to two at Well, who had like three receptions on
- 5:38Speaker 1: the entire season, and I mean, I know he's better
- 5:41Speaker 1: than that, but still absolutely ridiculous. The defense just was
- 5:44Speaker 1: nowhere near him.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Insane, absolutely insane.
- 5:49Speaker 1: And then Indianapolis did still have one more chance because
- 5:51Speaker 1: the Rams scored too fast, so there was still over
- 5:55Speaker 1: a minute left and Indy did start driving and then
- 5:58Speaker 1: Daniel Jones threw an interception and that was.
- 6:00Speaker 2: The end of it.
- 6:01Speaker 1: That pisses me off big time. Nate, what's up, man,
- 6:04Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging out. Then Texas Rangers was about as
- 6:08Speaker 1: bad as the Indianapolis won. Man, if you saw what
- 6:11Speaker 1: happened with the Texas Rangers game Cleveland, I mean, they
- 6:13Speaker 1: were already gonna be in the playoffs. They didn't need
- 6:15Speaker 1: to win. The Red Sox beat Detroit a lot, I
- 6:18Speaker 1: don't know, like towards the end of the Cleveland game,
- 6:20Speaker 1: Cleveland obviously knew that Detroit had lost, right so that
- 6:24Speaker 1: Cleveland therefore had won the division because they had the tiebreakers.
- 6:28Speaker 1: So it didn't even matter because I'm pretty sure the
- 6:31Speaker 1: Red Sox and the Tigers game ended first because the
- 6:34Speaker 1: Texas and Cleveland game went to extra innings. Texas was
- 6:38Speaker 1: winning like almost the entire game, at least winning by
- 6:40Speaker 1: one or two runs throughout the whole thing.
- 6:42Speaker 2: They were still up five to three.
- 6:44Speaker 1: In the eighth inning, they blew the lead. I think
- 6:46Speaker 1: it was still five to four. Maybe in the ninth
- 6:49Speaker 1: I don't remember, but they blew that goes into extra innings,
- 6:52Speaker 1: and then Texas puts three on the board in the
- 6:54Speaker 1: tenth innings, so now they're up eight to five. So
- 6:57Speaker 1: it's like, all right, this is over. You have an
- 6:59Speaker 1: eight to five win, and now again you have a
- 7:01Speaker 1: big lead with little you know, with one inning to go. Basically,
- 7:06Speaker 1: Texas has a pretty solid bullpen.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Cleveland can't hit.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Oh but Cleveland winds up putting up a four spot
- 7:12Speaker 1: in the bottom of thes entd thinning and winning anyway
- 7:14Speaker 1: nine to eight.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Absolutely unbelievable.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Obviously, Texas was the right play as the underdog there,
- 7:20Speaker 1: having the lead throughout most of the game just absolutely ridiculous.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Didn't expect it to be a high scoring game like that,
- 7:26Speaker 1: but insane. I mean it was lower scoring than the
- 7:28Speaker 1: final made it look, obviously because the mid or seven.
- 7:32Speaker 2: Runs scored to that's tenth inning. And then.
- 7:38Speaker 1: The WNBA game, I mean, holy shit, dude, Minnesota is
- 7:41Speaker 1: now eliminated. But Minnesota was winning outright most of that game,
- 7:45Speaker 1: like they were out out of the gates, hot man.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Minnesota was winning by double digits. In the first quarter,
- 7:51Speaker 1: it got a little bit closer than Minnesota, I think
- 7:54Speaker 1: maybe even fell behind, and then they pushed their lead
- 7:56Speaker 1: back to the point where they had a double digit
- 7:58Speaker 1: lead in the fourth quarter. They were up like thirteen
- 8:00Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter as a five and a
- 8:02Speaker 1: half point underdog, which by the way, it wound up
- 8:05Speaker 1: being a four and a half point number in the
- 8:07Speaker 1: game went off, So if you got the worst number
- 8:09Speaker 1: on that, you actually wound up losing, whereas my five
- 8:12Speaker 1: and a half actually wound up winning.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Neither should have been a loser. Man.
- 8:15Speaker 1: You're up thirteen in the fourth quarter, outright lead pretty
- 8:18Speaker 1: much the whole game. Minnesota got outscored. I don't know
- 8:23Speaker 1: exactly what the fourth quarter wound up being, but I
- 8:25Speaker 1: saw towards the end of the game they were outscored
- 8:28Speaker 1: twenty two to five in the fourth quarter, and then
- 8:31Speaker 1: I think both teams might have scored like a little
- 8:33Speaker 1: bit more after that, and Minnesota wound up barely getting
- 8:36Speaker 1: in that number and losing by five, I think after
- 8:39Speaker 1: they intentionally fouled again at the end of the game,
- 8:42Speaker 1: because it was kind of going back and forth between
- 8:44Speaker 1: three and five towards the end. There absolutely abysmal fourth
- 8:49Speaker 1: quarter from Minnesota. I mean, even though yeah, they were
- 8:52Speaker 1: without their star player call here, but even so, like,
- 8:55Speaker 1: how do you how do they play a fourth quarter?
- 8:57Speaker 2: It's that bad man, And now they're eliminated.
- 9:00Speaker 1: But as you know, in my bracket, I actually picked
- 9:02Speaker 1: Vegas to be the champion of Vegas.
- 9:05Speaker 2: They're on the version of elimination. But it's in a.
- 9:07Speaker 1: Home game in a in a game five in their series,
- 9:11Speaker 1: which is gonna come up tomorrow.
- 9:12Speaker 2: So whatever, man, let's talk about today. So that was
- 9:16Speaker 2: all the games. Yesterday.
- 9:18Speaker 1: Could have been a losing day if Minnesota didn't wind
- 9:22Speaker 1: up covering that in the end, and that would have
- 9:23Speaker 1: been bullshit too.
- 9:24Speaker 2: So we almost took.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Three bullshit losses yesterday. It should have been a six
- 9:28Speaker 1: and one day. Man. We got the NFL today, obviously,
- 9:32Speaker 1: that's the only thing we have today. Monday night, I
- 9:34Speaker 1: already talked about both games on my NFL show as well,
- 9:38Speaker 1: so you can go back and watch that, but my
- 9:39Speaker 1: analysis is going to essentially.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Be the same.
- 9:42Speaker 1: We at least have, you know, we can see what
- 9:44Speaker 1: the market has done since then, and I think the
- 9:46Speaker 1: market is not really gonna tell us too much additional
- 9:49Speaker 1: information at this point here.
- 9:53Speaker 2: Trying to gather my thoughts here. I don't have any
- 9:55Speaker 2: bets on these games.
- 9:56Speaker 1: First game up, it starts an hour before the other
- 9:59Speaker 1: game in this double ahead or even though the games
- 10:01Speaker 1: are gonna be played at the same time, and you know,
- 10:04Speaker 1: absolutely nobody's gonna watch Jets Dolphins Man. Once Bengals Broncos
- 10:08Speaker 1: comes on, that's obviously the game that people are gonna
- 10:11Speaker 1: be watching, although Joe Burrow is obviously heard as well.
- 10:14Speaker 1: So not a good Monday night lineup at all for people.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Man Jets Dolphins battle of owned three AFC East teams.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Although I have a tendency to kind of want to
- 10:26Speaker 1: say that maybe neither team is really as bad as that,
- 10:29Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins are indeed pretty bad. I think
- 10:31Speaker 1: McDaniel's gonna get fired. He's not very good. The Jets,
- 10:36Speaker 1: at least they have the excuse they have a new
- 10:38Speaker 1: coach there Aaron Glenn, So they're trying to figure things out,
- 10:41Speaker 1: but their defense is really struggled so far. The Dolphins
- 10:45Speaker 1: are two and a half point favorite here. It's gone
- 10:48Speaker 1: up a little bit with some juice on the two
- 10:49Speaker 1: and a half sixty percent tickets sixty one percent of
- 10:52Speaker 1: the cash on the Dolphins. The under also getting money
- 10:56Speaker 1: with the total just sitting at four and a half
- 10:58Speaker 1: seventy three percent tickets on the for only sixty six
- 11:01Speaker 1: percent of the cash on the over. So I would
- 11:02Speaker 1: say that means that the actual.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Money is coming in on the under here.
- 11:06Speaker 1: And I mean it kind of makes sense, and you
- 11:09Speaker 1: have two bad teams, but I kind of worry about
- 11:11Speaker 1: an under in that game because the Jets defense is
- 11:14Speaker 1: supposed to be good, but it hasn't played well and
- 11:16Speaker 1: the Dolphins defense is bad, so it is possible that
- 11:20Speaker 1: those teams can get over that total. I mean, when
- 11:23Speaker 1: you have two bad teams, a lot of times you
- 11:24Speaker 1: think all the teams can't score. But and yeah, the
- 11:27Speaker 1: Dolphins offense has been putrid, but the Jets offense actually.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Hasn't really been that bad.
- 11:32Speaker 1: I lean to Miami in this game, though, and if
- 11:34Speaker 1: you can find the two and a half out there,
- 11:35Speaker 1: you could still lay that maybe you have to lay
- 11:37Speaker 1: the money line on it, find you know, some other
- 11:40Speaker 1: creative way of doing it.
- 11:41Speaker 2: But I think Miami is the right side in my opinion. Here.
- 11:45Speaker 1: They have extra time off because they haven't played since Thursday,
- 11:48Speaker 1: and yeah, I know they covered against Buffalo, but I
- 11:50Speaker 1: think the extra time off in this situation will help
- 11:53Speaker 1: them because they haven't won a game yet. So I
- 11:55Speaker 1: having extra time off, you're gonna use that extra time
- 11:57Speaker 1: to prepare some stuff you're back at home.
- 11:59Speaker 2: Although I know this is a divisional.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Game, so it's like it's not gonna be a big
- 12:03Speaker 1: deal for the Jets to travel down there either. But
- 12:07Speaker 1: even though it is gonna be warm, probably warmer than
- 12:10Speaker 1: the Jets, like, I think it's gonna be in the
- 12:11Speaker 1: eighties down there. And if it was a day game,
- 12:14Speaker 1: I would say Miami should wear their white uniforms force
- 12:17Speaker 1: the Jets to soak up the.
- 12:19Speaker 2: Sun and they are dark colors.
- 12:20Speaker 1: But it's gonna be a night game, so that's you know,
- 12:24Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter as much. But yeah, Miami, I
- 12:27Speaker 1: think they could use that extra time off to try
- 12:29Speaker 1: to fix some things. I know they covered in their
- 12:31Speaker 1: last game against Buffalo, but it was still a double
- 12:34Speaker 1: digit loss, so I think they could use that time
- 12:37Speaker 1: to fix some things, whereas the Jets are actually coming
- 12:39Speaker 1: off a much more difficult loss. That was a game
- 12:42Speaker 1: that I gave out on the show with the Jets
- 12:43Speaker 1: plus six and a half. The Jets made a big
- 12:46Speaker 1: comeback in that game, took the lead late in the game,
- 12:49Speaker 1: and then lost it right at the end brutal fashion. Man,
- 12:52Speaker 1: they could have pulled off the upset there, So I
- 12:54Speaker 1: think the Jets coming off that game could be in
- 12:56Speaker 1: a little bit of a worst spot here, although the
- 12:59Speaker 1: travel spot is kind of not as bad for them
- 13:01Speaker 1: if they stayed in Florida because it's two straight games
- 13:04Speaker 1: in Florida, so I kind of assumed they did actually
- 13:06Speaker 1: stay in Florida, So that would be a little bit
- 13:09Speaker 1: of an advantage to the Jets if they did do that.
- 13:11Speaker 1: But I still would lean to Miami in this game
- 13:14Speaker 1: just because the Jets have less time off. That was
- 13:16Speaker 1: a brutal way of losing to Tampa Bay there. And
- 13:20Speaker 1: the other thing about the Jets is I'm pretty sure.
- 13:22Speaker 1: I mean, you could watch the news today, but I'm
- 13:24Speaker 1: pretty sure justin Fields is coming back here. So one
- 13:27Speaker 1: of the reasons I played the Jets against Tampa Bay
- 13:31Speaker 1: was that it was the injured player theory spot. When
- 13:34Speaker 1: you're starting quarterback goes down, the team tends to step
- 13:37Speaker 1: up their game for that one game without him. They
- 13:39Speaker 1: know they have to put an extra effort. You get
- 13:41Speaker 1: a little bit of extra value on that team because
- 13:43Speaker 1: the line moves a little bit. In that case, I
- 13:45Speaker 1: don't think it moved that much. I think it moved
- 13:47Speaker 1: about a point. But the oddsmaker is still downgraded the
- 13:50Speaker 1: Jets going from Justin Fields to Tyron Taylor. But I'm
- 13:53Speaker 1: not sure that Taylor is even really worse than Justin Fields.
- 13:56Speaker 2: I mean, Taylor's good, he's not that bad.
- 13:58Speaker 1: He's got experience, He's been pretty solid when he's played.
- 14:02Speaker 1: Sometimes he kind of goes in there and like, defenses
- 14:05Speaker 1: don't know how. I don't know how to scheme against
- 14:07Speaker 1: him really because they don't see him that often. But
- 14:10Speaker 1: now we're in kind of the reverse injured player spot
- 14:13Speaker 1: now where the starting quarterback is coming back, and the
- 14:16Speaker 1: Jets might be of the mindset like this happens in
- 14:18Speaker 1: the reverse injured player spot. When the guy comes back,
- 14:21Speaker 1: it's like, oh, we played pretty well without him. We
- 14:23Speaker 1: can kind of like breathe a sigh of relief here
- 14:26Speaker 1: and not have to play as hard with this guy back.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Although I know the Jets are owned three, so it's
- 14:31Speaker 1: not like they're not gonna be playing hard, but you.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Know, well, I mean, I wouldn't imagine.
- 14:35Speaker 1: I think two own three teams are kind of desperate,
- 14:37Speaker 1: you know, So I think they're both gonna show up here.
- 14:40Speaker 1: But yeah, I think there could be also kind of
- 14:43Speaker 1: a chemistry issue with the quarterback coming back for the
- 14:45Speaker 1: Jets here. So I think Miami is the way to
- 14:48Speaker 1: look in that game. If you're gonna play that game,
- 14:50Speaker 1: it won't be a play for me though. And then
- 14:52Speaker 1: the Bengals and the Broncos is the other game. Pretty
- 14:56Speaker 1: low looking total for a Bengals game. Although the Broncos
- 14:58Speaker 1: are more of a defensive even an offensive team, the
- 15:01Speaker 1: Bengals look like their offense is gonna really be struggling
- 15:04Speaker 1: without Joe Burrow in there. Money is coming in on
- 15:07Speaker 1: the over in this one, though, even though it dropped
- 15:09Speaker 1: a little bit to forty four and a half juice
- 15:11Speaker 1: to the under fifty eight percent of tickets sixty five
- 15:13Speaker 1: percent of the cash on the over now, so money
- 15:16Speaker 1: a little bit on the over. I don't know if
- 15:18Speaker 1: I really see that though, to be honest, I think Broncos,
- 15:22Speaker 1: if they play that slow down style. I mean, the Bengals,
- 15:25Speaker 1: this offense without Joe Burrow could struggle to score again.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Probably not as.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Bad as last week, though, but they're I mean, they
- 15:33Speaker 1: faced a good defense last week through the Vikings. They
- 15:36Speaker 1: throw a lot of pressure at the quarterbacks and stuff,
- 15:38Speaker 1: but the Broncos are also a pretty menacing defense. Eighty
- 15:42Speaker 1: five percent tickets eighty seven percent of the cash on
- 15:44Speaker 1: the Broncos threw up from six to seven and a half,
- 15:47Speaker 1: So the line did move through that key number seven.
- 15:50Speaker 1: The six might have been the like the look ahead
- 15:53Speaker 1: the week before, that public is gonna be all over
- 15:55Speaker 1: the Broncos and this is gonna be the game that's
- 15:58Speaker 1: the more bet of the two games. Would say, So,
- 16:00Speaker 1: I think you do want to look to fade the
- 16:02Speaker 1: public here because Monday night, you know, there's usually it's
- 16:05Speaker 1: one Monday night game, and everybody coming off of Sunday.
- 16:09Speaker 1: You know, if people lost on Sunday, which I think
- 16:11Speaker 1: a lot of the anti public plays did win yesterday,
- 16:14Speaker 1: So you're gonna see betters who lost yesterday coming in
- 16:17Speaker 1: trying to get some of their money back on Monday night.
- 16:19Speaker 1: So I do think a lot of them are gonna
- 16:21Speaker 1: be betting the Broncos. There are probably a lot of
- 16:23Speaker 1: people who have teased the Broncos down from seven and
- 16:26Speaker 1: a half to one and a half. Although I actually
- 16:28Speaker 1: think that that's probably a good idea, I would not
- 16:31Speaker 1: disagree with doing that. I think if you did want
- 16:34Speaker 1: to tease, you could actually tease both of these games here,
- 16:37Speaker 1: because they're both in the Stanford Long teaser, which is
- 16:41Speaker 1: the only way that there's really actually value to be
- 16:44Speaker 1: had on the NFL, which is a two teams six
- 16:46Speaker 1: point teaser, and you have to take both teams through
- 16:49Speaker 1: the key numbers of both three and seven, So you
- 16:52Speaker 1: need to get the number either from below three up
- 16:56Speaker 1: to above seven or as an underdog from ear excuse
- 17:00Speaker 1: he has a favorite from above seven all the way
- 17:02Speaker 1: down to below three.
- 17:04Speaker 2: So you can only do it with underdogs of.
- 17:07Speaker 1: One and a half up through two and a half
- 17:09Speaker 1: and favorites of eight and a half down through seven
- 17:13Speaker 1: and a half.
- 17:13Speaker 2: But you have both of those here.
- 17:15Speaker 1: You could tease the Jets up to plus eight and
- 17:17Speaker 1: a half with the Broncos down to.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Minus one and a half, that would not be a
- 17:24Speaker 2: horrible teaser.
- 17:25Speaker 1: But books know that there's value in that specific teaser,
- 17:29Speaker 1: so they charge you more for the teasers now because
- 17:32Speaker 1: the professionals have been doing it for a while, so
- 17:34Speaker 1: they probably charge you about minus one thirty now for
- 17:36Speaker 1: and I probably wouldn't want to do that. You used
- 17:38Speaker 1: to be able to get it at minus one twenty.
- 17:40Speaker 1: If you can find it for like minus one twenty five,
- 17:42Speaker 1: it might be.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Worth a look.
- 17:44Speaker 1: I probably would have teased the Broncos with some other
- 17:47Speaker 1: team that played yesterday, though, because I don't just I
- 17:49Speaker 1: don't know. I just don't love the Jets tonight, so
- 17:52Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen that game. Really this game,
- 17:55Speaker 1: I actually do lean to the Bengals plus the points, though,
- 17:58Speaker 1: even though I don't really see the Broncos in the
- 18:00Speaker 1: game outright either. Broncos were a potential survivor pick as well,
- 18:05Speaker 1: but I used Houston. I took the risk yesterday and
- 18:08Speaker 1: I got that, so I am alive stone survivor and
- 18:11Speaker 1: Houston had basically no future values, so my low time
- 18:15Speaker 1: preference survivor continues, man, and you got to do that
- 18:18Speaker 1: when you're in like a big.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Money survivor pool like I am. So we're alive.
- 18:23Speaker 1: We're alive in college survivors still as well, but I
- 18:26Speaker 1: haven't really been tested there yet. It's gonna get more
- 18:29Speaker 1: difficult because in the college when you have to use
- 18:31Speaker 1: just the you're only able to use I think games
- 18:34Speaker 1: that involve the Power Conference teams, so your options are
- 18:38Speaker 1: a little bit limited that way.
- 18:40Speaker 2: But this game, Cincinnati is coming off a horrific game. Man.
- 18:44Speaker 1: They played that game against Minnesota that was the injured
- 18:46Speaker 1: player theory game for both teams, as JJ McCarthy for
- 18:50Speaker 1: Minnesota and Joe Borrow for Cincinnati both had gotten hurt
- 18:54Speaker 1: in the previous game. Cincinnati I felt was in the
- 18:57Speaker 1: worst spot because they had come off that like crazy
- 19:01Speaker 1: comeback win against Jacksonville, big dramatic win, having to go
- 19:04Speaker 1: on the road to face this Minnesota defense. I thought
- 19:07Speaker 1: Browning also a huge step down from Joe Burrow. The
- 19:11Speaker 1: two jbs, Jake Browning and Joe Burrow, So I thought
- 19:14Speaker 1: that was a major step down whards. I thought Minnesota
- 19:17Speaker 1: switching from a cart it wentz actually could be potentially
- 19:20Speaker 1: an upgrade. So I thought Minnesota was the right side
- 19:24Speaker 1: in that game, and they were. I mean, I didn't
- 19:26Speaker 1: expect Cincinnati to have five turnovers in the game, but
- 19:29Speaker 1: Minnesota did win. I was right about that, And now
- 19:32Speaker 1: I think Minnesota looked too good. And that's what I
- 19:35Speaker 1: said about going into yesterday. Minnesota did wind up losing
- 19:38Speaker 1: the game to Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers yesterday in Dublin.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Minnesota did dominate this game statistically, but and they.
- 19:46Speaker 2: Really held Cincinnati's offense down.
- 19:47Speaker 1: But Cincinnati was also minus five and turnovers, so Cincinnati
- 19:51Speaker 1: really couldn't have possibly looked worse. So really, nobody's gonna
- 19:55Speaker 1: want anything to do with Cincinnati after they saw that.
- 19:57Speaker 1: So I think that is a spot where you do
- 19:59Speaker 1: get a little bit additional value on a team like Cincinnati,
- 20:02Speaker 1: because yeah, they deserve to lose that game, and they
- 20:05Speaker 1: got blown out statistically, but the game should not have
- 20:09Speaker 1: been forty eight to ten. Five turnovers is just ridiculous.
- 20:13Speaker 1: So if Cincinnati is able to clean that up throughout
- 20:15Speaker 1: the week, they shouldn't be as bad in this game defensively,
- 20:19Speaker 1: and they still have a lot of talent on that offense,
- 20:21Speaker 1: so I don't really see how the offense could be
- 20:23Speaker 1: that bad just because Joe Burrow's not there. Denver hasn't
- 20:28Speaker 1: really been good offensively so far. Their defense has been
- 20:31Speaker 1: playing well, but they're coming of a much tougher game
- 20:33Speaker 1: against the Chargers, a huge divisional game where Kansas City.
- 20:37Speaker 2: You know, Kansas City looked really good yesterday, but Kansas City.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Stepping down maybe a little bit this year, taking a
- 20:44Speaker 1: step back, and people were like, which team is gonna
- 20:46Speaker 1: fill that role, Denver or the Chargers. So Denver versus Chargers,
- 20:51Speaker 1: huge game there, and Denver had the lead on the
- 20:54Speaker 1: road late in that game, they wound up blowing the
- 20:55Speaker 1: game late and losing the game.
- 20:57Speaker 2: That is a brutal way to lose that game.
- 20:59Speaker 1: And do have Philly up next, the returning champs, and
- 21:02Speaker 1: that's always going to be a game that draws your attention, even.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Though it's not a primetime game.
- 21:07Speaker 1: So I think Denver could have potentially overlook the Cincinnati team,
- 21:10Speaker 1: especially when they know Cincinnati doesn't have Joe Burrow. Looking
- 21:14Speaker 1: at what Cincinnati did last week, even though, as I
- 21:17Speaker 1: pointed out, Cincinnati did beat Denver late in the season
- 21:20Speaker 1: last year. I think in the second to last week
- 21:22Speaker 1: of the season at Cincinnati overtime game. Cincinnati needed the
- 21:27Speaker 1: game a little bit more because they were trying to
- 21:29Speaker 1: stay alive in the playoff race. Denver was more secure
- 21:32Speaker 1: in their playoff spot at that point, but both teams
- 21:35Speaker 1: tried hard in the game. Cincinnati won, So there's a
- 21:37Speaker 1: little bit of a revenge aspect here, but I don't
- 21:39Speaker 1: think it matters that much, and Denver looking for revenge
- 21:43Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily mean that they're going to cover a huge
- 21:45Speaker 1: spread either. So I think looking at the spot here,
- 21:48Speaker 1: I think it is a pretty bad spot for Denver
- 21:51Speaker 1: is It does look like a sandwich spot to me,
- 21:53Speaker 1: to be honest, It's just that when you're hosting a
- 21:55Speaker 1: Monday night game, it's a little bit difficult to say
- 21:59Speaker 1: that it's the same which but I mean, I'm tempted.
- 22:01Speaker 1: This is the better of the two games as far
- 22:03Speaker 1: as this is my stronger opinion of the two games.
- 22:07Speaker 1: In my opinion, my opinion is take the points with
- 22:10Speaker 1: the Bengals in this game. I know it's another ugly underdog.
- 22:14Speaker 1: I'm not gonna quite get there with that one, but
- 22:16Speaker 1: it's close. It looks like a sandwich to me. For Denversus.
- 22:21Speaker 1: That's that man. Yeah, I mean I think that's all
- 22:24Speaker 1: I got here. Quick video today. Of course I prolonged
- 22:28Speaker 1: in anyway just to talk about two games, but a Nate.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Thanks for hanging out. That's gonna do it for today.
- 22:33Speaker 2: I'll be back tomorrow.
- 22:34Speaker 1: We will have MLB playoffs, NBA w NBA playoffs continue,
- 22:40Speaker 1: and no football tomorrow, so it's gonna be probably another
- 22:43Speaker 1: short ish video tomorrow, but that's gonna do it for now.
- 22:47Speaker 2: Have a good Monday, everybody in peace,
