  Speaker 1: Welcome to the favorites live on YouTube presented by DraftKings.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: The crown is yours. I'm your host, Brandon Kravitz, joined
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: by the first lady, Kendra Middleton. Week four, almost a
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: wrap in the NFL. We had our first London game.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: We met a quarterback that we've never heard of. A
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: couple of teams remain unbeaten. We'll get to all of
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: that receipts, cash, crash, clutch, a word from the Oracle,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Evan Abrams, and we've got a Monday night football, same
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: game parlay for Falcon saints tonight. I don't know if
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: you can tell with my sultry voice, but I am
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: under the weather today and Kendra, I don't care because
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: nothing cures ailments quite like a winning weekend. I know
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: we've had opposite experiences in week four. So I don't
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: want to gloat too much, but we're in this together
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and this is the first massive winning weekend that I
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: have had.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: So I feel great. This is the best.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Mood I've been in on a Monday since we have
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: started the season.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: You can take your victory lap, but I feel like
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: you're sick every other week and at least I don't deal.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: With that shit.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Well, when you have a kid in elementary school, if
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: this ever happens to you, Kendra, you will learn that
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: they bring home the nastiest shit and you got to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: just sort of battle through it. This is not as
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: bad as it could be. So I'm just dealing with
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a little bit of congestion. I do get sick often.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I was never like this until six years ago. But
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: here we are.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: Thank you for my growth control today.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Amazing.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: You're welcome. Yeah. How's life in Beantown?
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Um, I added this for later in the show.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I think that my big struggle so far this season is.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: I don't think I've ever had.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: A season where there isn't a style of bet that
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: I find success with off the rip and can kind
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: of stick with that. Like I've had some weeks where
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: totals have been my thing. Some weeks where spreads have
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: been my thing. Some weeks where player props have been
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: my thing. I know we're only a month into the
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: season and we're still kind of fighting our, finding our footing.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: And I do think that I'm one of those people
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: that I do wind up kind of knock on wood,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: making it up on the backend. Once we kind of
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: learn more about teams and injuries and can look into stuff. Um,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I feel like the first month of the season is
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: a little bit of like a cluster.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: But I just I.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Think that that's where I'm struggling is there's no one
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: thing that's working for me. So I'm putting too many
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: things in too many baskets. And I think that that
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: is where I am struggling at the moment.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: So a wise man once told me, I've got a
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: pep talk prepared for you because I had a feeling
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: you were going to come feeling down on yourself.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: I'm not.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: We can't we can't have that on this podcast. So
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: we got to we got to lift each other up
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: where we can. A wise man once told me that
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the advantage that we have over the sports books is
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: that they have to put up a line for everything.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: We don't have to bet everything.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: We get to be selective in our bets while the
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: sports books can't. They have to have the buffet available
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: for everybody. So that's step one. Step two is we
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: got to trust the process. We don't just show up
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: on Sunday firing at a board. We have spent months
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: building this. We've worked through power ratings, schedule quirks, home
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: field advantage, coaching adjustments, injuries. We talk to Chow every week.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: We track line movement. There's a lot to the process
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: of what we do. So when the first few months
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: or the first month, I should say, punches either one
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: of us in the mouth, it doesn't just feel like
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: we're losing money. It feels like everything we've done has
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: been a waste of time. And I think it hits
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: us even harder in the stomach when that happens. And
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I think that's where most people, this is where I'm
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: really going to get on my soapbox, Kendra. This is
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: where most people fail at sports betting. They don't fail
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: because they can't do it. They fail because they become
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: erratic in their decision-making. They don't trust themselves. And then
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: they either chase or they get discouraged. A bad weekend
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: is simply information. It is not a verdict. So we're
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: going to figure it out. We're going to trust it.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: We're going to stick to it. And the results will come.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Let me ask you something.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: A month ago, if I would have said to you,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Brandon Kravitz, do you think that CJ Stroud will go
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: a month without throwing an interception or Geno Smith will
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: go a month without throwing an interception. And the Houston
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Texans will be 0-4. What would you have said to me?
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: I probably would have called you crazy.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I probably would have called you crazy. But also, this
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: is the NFL. Weird shit happens. Every single year, we
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: have something that has never happened happen or something that
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: hasn't happened in years happen. And, and then, you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: that's where Evan gets all these fun stats. Like here,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I'll give you, I'll give you a random one just
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: to help paint that picture.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Teams.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: So this is the Minnesota Vikings. If I told you
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that they're four and oh, but they've only, there's two
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: of the games. They didn't even score a touchdown in
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: two of the four games. You'd be like, how did
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: this happen? The Vikings are the only team to do
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: that where they are four and oh, yet didn't score
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: a touchdown in two of the four games since the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: 1923 Chicago Cardinals.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: So it's just the NFL. It's weird.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: This is why it's so hard. I think this is
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: why I love it so much. And I understand that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: when you win, it's a lot easier to talk like this.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: But this is the challenge of it is it's hard
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: for everyone. Don't let your Twitter timeline make you think
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: that everyone out there is winning.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I promise they're not. The NFL is fucking hard.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: I think that we should definitely put a pin in
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: the Minnesota Vikings because I think the wheels are about
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: to fall off of them so fast in the coming weeks.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: I'm going to be fading the crap out of the
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Minnesota Vikings coming up.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Well, we might have a golden opportunity, pun intended, in
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: week five because they take on the New Orleans Saints
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: as road favorites right now. And it is taking everything
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: in my being to not bet that immediately.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I want to see how.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: The Saints look tonight.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: I kind of want to wait because I think if
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the Falcons win, I think we could get even more value.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to get greedy on that.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: And I'd like it even more.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: If the Falcons come out and they win on Monday
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Night Football and then we get a plus two and
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: we get a Saints off of a loss, buy low
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: on the Saints, an easy sell high on the Minnesota Vikings.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: If you can't cover against the Miami Dolphins, you got problems.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Quick checkup on the DraftKings contest. Went two and three
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: this week. I was bullied into a card that I
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: begrudgingly accepted. I'll start with the positives. The Titans backdoor
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: cover plus 11 and a half. Nice way to sneak
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: in through the backdoor against Snoop Huntley. I don't know
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: how injured Lamar Jackson is. We'll keep an eye on that.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: The Rams minus three and a half. A late fourth
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: quarter comeback effort by Matt Stafford. The 40th fourth quarter
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: comeback in his career. So you got those two. Hats
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: off to you.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: The Broncos were so sweaty.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: You, me, and John were texting each other, just absolutely
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: losing it over this game.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: And you know what?
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: I had faith because you're one of these people. You
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: love the Broncos heading into the season. And I can't
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: even point at the injuries because everybody deals with injuries.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: I was more so.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: hopeful because bonix has been the comeback kid and it
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: just didn't work out for him yesterday i i really
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: felt pretty confident until the end there.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: But once again how are the 49ers.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Doing it with all of their injuries that's another reason
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: you can't point to injuries because look at them more
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: than half of their roster with an injury designation and
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: somehow the same way as last season they're still kicking
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: ass and taking names And.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: This is where I will, I'll victory lap on that.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I had you guys threw that at me. Like, what
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: about the injury report? They overcome it. This is what
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the San Francisco 49ers do. They did it all last season.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: They did it in the playoffs last year on the
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: road in Philadelphia, overcame it, not just to cover the spread,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: but to win the game. This is what San Francisco does.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: It comes down to their stars are still operating at
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: a really high level. Brock Purdy has been playing like
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: an MVP. And their coaching is so good. Kyle Shanahan
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: is great coaching, but he's so good at finding coordinators.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is not a defensive guy, but it seems
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: like he always has the right DC where he Morris
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: is doing a bang up job to not have Nick
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Bosa out there and still shut down the Broncos at
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: everything that they wanted to do. The Broncos first half,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: they've been bad all year, but this should have been
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: a matchup advantage for them.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And it's the tackling. It's the scheme, all of those things.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I think it's coaching above anything else. Coaching and culture
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: have the 49ers. It almost doesn't matter who's on the field.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: I think the craziest stat to come out of this
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: game is that Brock Purdy hasn't taken a sack this year.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: If it was going to happen, it was going to
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: be against that Broncos front. So the fact that he
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: has been upright all season with the injuries they have
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: is just insane to me.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: And look, on the flip side, the Broncos can't keep
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: doing this. You're not going to win games when you
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: trail by double digits all the time. They've scored 13
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: first half points this year.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: 13.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: They have one touchdown drive, and it was the worst
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: game that they played so far against the Kansas City
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Chiefs to open the season. So they need to figure
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: out how to start faster. I don't know if Sean
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Payton needs to rip the play sheet out of Davis
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Webb's hand. It's not working, but they've got some serious
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: issues there. One of the other ones was the the
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: other l was the texans i really thought you guys
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: were going to come through on that i did not
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: bet the game in either direction so we weren't going
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: oppo on that one i wanted to see that one
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: come through for the contest the texans just blew it
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: and i think it's time for us to admit that
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: this defense is overrated we overrated them coming into the
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: season and And I'm kind of tired of waiting for
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: that unit to round into shape. I thought CJ Stroud
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: looked really good when Nico Collins is out there. CJ
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Stroud looks like a real NFL quarterback, but that defense,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I can't trust it.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: You know, they're going to blow doors next week.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes. So they get.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: We are putting the Houston Texans on our version of BetJail, a.k.a.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: the IR.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you said BetIR. So are we sticking with BetIR
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: on the Texans? Because they take on the Titans.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: You know they're going to blow doors, but we can't
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: do it. I cannot go four weeks into this season
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: with them losing money for me every single week and
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: continue to do it. And you know that that's exactly
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: how this goes. They're going to blow doors. They're going
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: to kick ass. Nico Collins is going to have 37,000 touchdowns.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Or they're going to win and CJ is finally going
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: to throw a pick.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: And it's just, I can't. I hate this team. I
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: hate them.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: I never should have even started this because I have
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: had beef with them forever. I hate them more than
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: anybody else. I hate their fans. I honestly, Kravitz, let
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: me ask you this. I think that the Eagles fans
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: are an obvious thing here, but I love Eagles fans
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: because I feel like Jags fans are just Eagles fans
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: light or like diet Eagles fans. What is the worst
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: fan base to you in the NFL? Because for me,
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: it is without a doubt Houston Texans fans.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: So you know what?
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: I'm really actually glad that they lost yesterday. Yes, it
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: cost me money, but watching all of, hate watching all
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: of these people that I hate on Twitter who are
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Houston Texans fans just have an absolute meltdown has been
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: absolutely worth it.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: It's like you're paying for their L's, you know?
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, which you know what? That's actually kind of fine
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: with me. Maybe I'll keep doing it.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Long-term happiness. You're paying for your long-term happiness. You're going
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: shopping in the Texans mall. Who's the worst fan base?
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Worst fan base. I've been trying to think of that.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: I think maybe the Giants.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: 49ers are number two for me.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: I think Giants fans think that their franchise is better
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: than it is.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I think there's a bloated self-confidence.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: But they're not mean. 49ers fans and Texans fans are mean.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I don't argue with as many people on Twitter as
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you do. So I'm going to defer to you. Whatever
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you say is the right answer.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, I had a 49ers fan pull my hair
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: in the stands, so I have real beef with them.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: And I hadn't even said anything yet.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I haven't been to an NFL game in like five years.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: That's because you have a child.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: So I've got receipts. You got to prove it to me.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: I got to see evidence. I'll show you the receipts.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: You don't believe me? I have the receipt for it
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: right here!
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: We are a Jaguars podcast.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: I nominated the Jags.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Whether I have been on them or against them this year,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I have not missed with Jacksonville. When will I earn
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: your trust, Middleton? I know how to bet this team.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: I think the second that I allow you to do
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: that is the second that they're going to start sucking ass.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: So I think that that's where I'm at with this. I,
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: I've also bet them to suck ass though.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I bet the Broncos against them when they went on
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: the road, but.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: I had a good reason.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence has never, he was the only team left
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: in the AFC outside of the Jaguars, obviously, because he's
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: on the team that he hadn't beaten yet. I just
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: don't think that it was somewhere I could get with
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: that stat, knowing this was the one team that he
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: hadn't beaten. And I gotta be honest, that game was
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: sweaty for a minute. Like the, can we talk about
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: the refereeing? Actually, no, save it. I have that for later.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: We'll save it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: We need to have a conversation about that at some point,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: but we'll save it. I just, that game was stressful
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: for many reasons and it could have gone a lot
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: of different ways. Like, had Jamar stayed in that game,
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: had T stayed in that game, it could have really
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: been different. And that's the other thing like Joe Burrow. I,
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: is he broken? Like it seriously, is he broken?
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: I think he might be broken without his top weapons
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: and the fact that they can't run. I mean, there's a,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I think he tried to go into hero mode and
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: it just simply doesn't work, but the Jags gave up
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: 430 yards of offense. And that was without Jamar chase
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: on the field. So I, I think burrow just went
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: into hero mode. Chase Brown has not been good this year.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: So I don't, I do not think Joe burrow is broken.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I think the Jags are really good. I think that's
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: what I think they have a bend. Don't break defense.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: They run well enough. And Trevor Lawrence, well enough. I
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: don't think they're great.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: I think that they have a great running. I mean,
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: don't get me wrong.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I don't think Chris Rodriguez is that dude, but Basial Tootin.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: Is that dude.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Has Tootin even got to 100 yards yet this season?
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. He's fine. I don't think he has.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: I don't think Basial.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: You can look that up while I give you the
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: latest that we're getting from Evan. I just saw this
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings as well. The Jaguars, just in the midst
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: of this conversation, have gone from minus four and a
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: half against the Eagles in London on Sunday to minus
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: five and a half. I assume that that's less action related, uh,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: pardon the pun to the app and more injury related.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Lane Johnson was out on Sunday. Saquon Barkley got hurt.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Devante Smith is out. So this is not a fully
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: loaded Eagles team and it's travel. So usually those, those
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: players that are iffy don't end up playing internationally. Um, it, Injury-wise,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: if there's still four and a half out there, I
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: would take the Jacksonville Jaguars, but at five and a half,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: I would kind of just wait to see where it goes.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: Coming out party for Travis Hunter as well.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: It's so upsetting that that interception that was shown again
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: and again at whatever highlight show you watch was called
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: back due to, I think there was a defensive holding
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: penalty or something of the sort, but he had an
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: interception and juked T.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Higgins out of his cleats. It was so nasty.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: The other hit that he had, the hit where he
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: just hit stick somebody was nuts. That was like some
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Madden crap. If you can find, if you like watching
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: things like that, go back and just listen to the
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: crowd noise. The way that they just go, oof, like
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: viscerally was crazy.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Basil Tootin, first four games, 66, 65, 73, 73. He's fine.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: They just don't run a ton. And that's, Yeah, I mean,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: he's okay, but he's not as good as Travis.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: He had that big one recalled yesterday because of a penalty.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: They run well enough.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: But you put the Patriots in federal prison, and look
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: at us now. Missed an opportunity. The Patriots not only cover,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: they win the game in the world's most obvious sell-high
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: spot on the Bills. And I'm saying this with crystal
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: clear hindsight, of course, because... We are stupid and stubborn
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: and neither of us profited off of this.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Also, who the hell is Efton Chisholm?
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: You all come on.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Efton Chisholm was a guy who I only know him
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: because I work here locally. He had a really good
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: camp last year, and a lot of people thought that
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: he was going to be a big difference maker in
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: the offense. Wasn't didn't get a ton of time, obviously,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: with the injuries to wide receivers. He has been getting
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: more snaps, but what a catch from him.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, holy crap. If you didn't know who he
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: was before this week, I bet you do now.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Man, and Patriots fans love them a nice white wide receiver, too.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they do. Yeah, they really do now that I
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: think about it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: The Chisholm jerseys are going to fly off the shelves.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Wes Welker, Julian Edelman, Efton Chisholm. Definitely going to see
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: those fly off the shelves. Danny Amendola. Danny Amendola, of course.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Chris Hogan.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: One other one in there.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: What a time.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: The Patriots held the Bills top two rushers, which is
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen and James Cook, to 79 yards. The Bills
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: even got a good game from Keon Coleman. I didn't
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: know that that was possible these days. No Christian Gonzalez,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: no Christian Barmore, and they still come through. This is
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: when I say the NFL is weird. This is a
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: great example of it. The Patriots couldn't get their head
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: out of their ass. And then without two of their
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: best defensive players, they put it all together against the Bills.
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: Fair or foul?
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel being flagged on the sidelines for barking at
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: the ref.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to say foul because I think
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: the refs were on one on multiple different occasions throughout
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: the course of the day. There's the moment we'll talk
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: about later because it is the diva of the week
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: moment is a ref actually cursing at Trey McBride.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: I did see this.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: I saw a moment that got a lot less pub
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: and I'm blanking on what game it was because it's
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: such a flurry on red zone. But there is a player.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: I think it may have been a Minnesota Vikings. Ran
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: into a referee as he's sort of like barreling through
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: with his momentum after a play. Just incidental contact. The
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: referee pops up and starts screaming at the guy. It's
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: like he's playing football. Obviously, this shit happens at the refs.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's like, is it Shark Week or
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: something for the referees in the NFL? Really?
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: The game i mean even like commentators were getting in
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: on it yesterday and how bad it was and you
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: know what i i have another nomination for diva of
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: the week we can get to it but it has
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: to be the refs because They just controlled every single
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: game throughout the entirety of yesterday.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: It's all people were talking about online.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: The Jaguars were the least penalized team heading into the week,
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: had nine penalties in the first half. And it just,
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: I understand that some of these penalties are deserved, but
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: at the same time, it's ruining the product. I don't
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: want to sit here and look for a flag after
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: every single play in every single game. I just don't
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: want to do that. That's not fun. That's not what
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: this sport is about. And these games are already too long.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: I just it doesn't need to be the referee show.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: And I'm not going to sit here and be one
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: of these people who's going to blame blame refereeing for
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: any of my losses or team's losses or wins or whatever.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: It's more so just my complaint is this is ruining
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: the product for the consumer and they've got to get
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: this under control.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: I completely agree.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: It does feel like after every big play, especially a
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: deep pass down the field. I mean, teams are just
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: taking shots now because they're like, yeah, 50-50, we're going
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: to get a flag on this. And we all sit
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: there and do the exact same thing in these moments,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: whether you've bet on a team or not, and definitely
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: if you have, you sit there and you wait with
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: bated breath for that flag to come rolling in, and
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: it's far too frequent. They have to figure something out.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: And while I am anti-more review, if there's one thing
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: that needs to be reviewable, it's pass interference.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: They've got to add that to the list. It's way too.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: punitive when you get those flags against you we will
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: get to our cash crash and clutch in a moment
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: but what is your one big massive takeaway from.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: Sunday i was gonna say it's that i know nothing
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: but we kind of already went through that so i'm
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: gonna go with my second option which was i understand
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: that i'm one of these people who falls victim to
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: recency bias unlike anybody else but But has this been
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: the craziest month of football in recent memory for you?
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Like the craziest start to the season? I'm taught like
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: I feel like a lot of the quarterback injuries that
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: we saw in the AFC last year happened more towards
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: like the middle of the season. So I can't really
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: even say last year. But as far as like the injuries,
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: the teams that are good, some of the upsets that
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: we've gotten, the big plays that we've gotten, it feels
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: like we just went full season like form off the jump.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: I always struggle with a question like that because I
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: don't remember what the other seasons were like. Like I couldn't,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I can't say definitively.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: This season is crazier, crazier than in 2023 when X, Y,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Z happened.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like at the end of
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: the year, I get hit with.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Like that men in black flashlight thing where it's like,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: all right, forget everything you saw onto the next, um,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. I mean, it does feel crazy, but,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: but can I say definitively that it's crazier than any
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: prior year? I don't know that I can, but it
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: does feel wild.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: Some of like the totals and everything that we've seen
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: have been nuts. Like we, have we ever gotten a
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: game like we did in Rio last week, this early
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: in the season? I don't think so.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: That game was ridiculous.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Maybe, maybe that's part of it is that we're getting
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: more international games too. We had an Australia game. Like
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: we've never had that to start the year.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Hate it so much i hate it so much i
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: can't wait for this stupid experiment to be over well.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: You get used to it because the next um the
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: entire month of october there's a london or spain or
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: germany game can i say.
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: That i forgot that there was a london game yesterday
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: and i was at work working the f1 race and
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: i got a notification about something in the london game
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: and i was like damn I forgot there was a
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: London game this morning, so I tuned into the second half.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: It didn't matter that I missed the first half of
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: the London game. It was shitty.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you missed the brilliance of Ethan Caliamanis, quarterback,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: seventh round out of Rutgers. Exactly why the Brits showed
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: up to the stadium to watch that guy play.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: I think that that's another thing that we're going to
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: have to start looking at. I know that some of
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: these roughing the passer calls are really annoying and it's
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: hard to, you know, when you're such a big person
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: moving so fast, kind of change your momentum or whatever.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: But these games get real crappy real quick when these
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: starting quarterbacks go out, man, like it, that also ruins
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: the product.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: So.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: As much as I hate it and I'm one of
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: these people that's sitting here like this is football, I
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: would much rather have starting quarterbacks in the league available
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: and healthy to keep things interesting. I don't want to
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: watch another season like I did last year.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Backup quarterbacks haven't been the problem. Third string quarterbacks, they
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: might be an issue and they certainly were for the community.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: That's not true. Justice for Case Keenum. You shut your mouth.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: It's true. Case Keenum was great.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: We have much to get to, Cash Crash Clutch. We
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: have our heroes and zeros in week four. But first,
• 24:48

• 25:29
  Speaker 2: It was cash. So clutch.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Let's get to our cash, crash, and clutch, our version
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: of High Low Hero on our Monday Recap show. I
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: am progressively sounding like more shit. I hate, by the way,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: that I've become like the you're sick all the time
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: guy that no one.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Likes that guy. And I'm that guy.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: It's just because you're a parent.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Well, at least I get a pass.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: We did go to one of those like indoor trampoline
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: places for kids a week ago because I was trying
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: to expend all of my son's energy before an NFL Sunday.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: And I'm pretty sure. that that place houses the bubonic plague.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: So that could be part of it.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: I just, another reason I don't think I could have
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: a kid is because I'm kind of a germaphobe. Like
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: I don't, I am like ridiculous about people wearing shoes
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: in my house. I have a thing at the front
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: of my house that says, take your fucking shoes off.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: I don't even let my cleaners wear shoes. I like
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: make them put the covers on.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: Like I, I hate it. No.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I feel like I would have to dunk my kid
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: in bleach anytime we went somewhere.
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: You are not supposed to do that. They advise against it.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: My cash of the week. I mean, where would I
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: be without my Kings? Bryce Young, Kirko Chains, the Jaguars defense.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: Imagine saying this a year ago or two years ago.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: People would literally crucify you.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young is having himself a nice little breakout season.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Everything just looks so smooth for him right now. The
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: ball's popping out of his hand. He's got one of
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: the quickest release times in the league right now. Ted
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: McMillan's balling out. Not done betting the sad cats. Also love, look,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins didn't get the win against the Chiefs, but
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: I just, when I'm watching this guy play, I just
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: trust him.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: With my money.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: I trust him like a babysitter.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: They did. Because he is financially prudent.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: It is financially smart to back Captain Coles himself, Kirk Cousins.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: And while the Jags defense gave up a boatload of yards,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Ben don't break. Travis Hunter looked elite. And a game-saving
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: tackle from... uh, Ray one lane on that final fourth
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: down pass to chase Brown. So those were my biggest
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: caches of the weekend.
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: Can I say something? Absolutely insane.
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: At what point do you and I seriously start sitting
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: here having a, what is the price for a Bryce
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: young MVP? If he can keep the turnovers down, he's
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: had two so far through the season, one in two
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: different games and they keep winning and I think he
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: leads the league in yards right now.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: Like you said, you talked about his release time.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Ted McMillan looks like an absolute veteran, not just a
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: guy who's in his second year.
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: Look at Chuba Hubbard.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: When do we start having conversations about a long shot
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: at Bryce Young?
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: Right now. If we're going to have the conversation, we
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: ought to do it now. He's 50-1 to win MVP, and.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: He looks great. He's leading league in passing yards.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Even if we just take a cash out down the
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: line on that. That's what I mean.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm looking at some of the names that
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: are above him right now. Like Drake May is a
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: shorter price than Bryce Young. Jalen Hurts and Bryce Young
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: are priced the same. That's not accurate. So that's what
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: we look for in the futures market. Great call out
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: by you. I think we take a nibble right now.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: I honestly think so too, but that's the thing. Can
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: I speak to someone who develops our app for me
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: to be able to log this for people with the
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: intention of eventually buying out of it or selling out
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: of it?
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: I think that's what the notes section is for.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: I think that that.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: But it's still going to hurt my ROI even though
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: I'm going to make money off of it.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but what if he wins? Then it'll help.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: He's not going to win MVP, but it's going to
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: get better.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: 50 to one. Are we kidding? Week 10. I will
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: see you.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Give me my. money. Bye. You could.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's a quarterback in the NFL.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: Big numbers.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure that the division sucks as much as
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: we think it does.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: You guys gave me so much shit for being an
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: NFC South truther.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: And now look at you. Look at all of you.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: So they're going to play the Eagles on Sunday.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: They're going to play the wait. That doesn't know.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: They don't play the Eagles. The Jags play the Eagles.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: Are they?
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: No, they're on a buy. They have an early buy.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: That's what it is.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: They have a buy already.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Their next game is Sunday, October 18th. So they have
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: the early buy. So their next game, they're going to
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: go on a buy. Then they're going to play the
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Eagles who we don't know about those injury issues.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: Home against the Bucs.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: On the road against the Packers, which I feel like
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: that's maybe like Micah.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: Parsons' watch territory.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: Home against the Broncos, which Bryce Young at home against
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: a team like that, don't hate. On the road against
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: the Saints. Home against the Ravens. They traveled the Bucs. Dude,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: their schedule is so easy. They play three real teams
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: the rest of the season. I think it's time for
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: us to buy Bryce Young's stock.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: You don't have to twist my arm.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: I'm in.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: So I'll bet.
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Love it. Love it.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Maybe we can get Drake May to run into the
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: end zone now, too, while we're at it.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: Who's your cash of the week?
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: My cash of the week is going to be Ollie Gordon.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: I took a long shot on him.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: I tailed you on this. Thank you very much.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: It was it was a play that needed to be made.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: I got lucky with him and my Brock Bowers anytime.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: Absolute last minute at the buzzer with Brock Bowers. Couldn't
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: get home on any of my interception props, but at
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: least I had Ali.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: Gordon, baby.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: I was actually really disappointed about. Well, we can we
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: can talk about this in a second.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: But yeah, right.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: Ali Gordon was my biggest cash of the week. It
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: was the only thing that kind of even remotely saved me.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: Um, and, uh, I spent way too much of my
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: free agent budget in my fantasy league on him and
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I feel justified in it now. So not only did
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: we cash the bet on a three to one for
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: him to score a touchdown, but it looks like he's
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: the best running back in that backfield. My crash is
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni. What a fucking disaster of a coaching job.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: He just got worked by Sean McVay and Chris Shula.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: So they want to run this West coast offense. putting
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Jalen hurts under center, which they did early on this season.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: And then they just abandoned it for no reason. And
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: what did it produce? 93 yards passing, which is like
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: a 1920 stat line, zero second half points. They were
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: all of 12 on third down and still had a
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: 10 point lead with eight to go. Mind you, I'm
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: sitting on a plus three lead. on the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: They're down at the goal line up by 10 with
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: eight minutes left. And rather than kicking the field goal,
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: he goes for it with this anemic offense. You can go, oh, well, well, duh,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: because they're going to push push with Jalen hurts. No,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: they dropped back this stiff in the pocket to throw
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: a pass. In what world was that play going to work?
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: That is atrocious coaching. I understand the logic of wanting
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: a touchdown there, but a field goal, a field goal
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: allows you to put yourself in position where if the
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Rams do come back, which they did, you can get
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: yourself into field goal position to win the game. They
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: were never going to score a touchdown with 30 seconds left.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: This offense doesn't move like that. It's just maddening to
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: me when I see, I don't think I'm the smartest
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: person on the planet. So when I'm sitting there on
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: my couch out coaching you, you're doing something wrong.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni, what a crash.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: You know, I was on the Rams, so I was
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: thankful for this because it helped me make up some
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: of the money that I've been losing this season.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: But the thing for.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: Me is, one, how hot is that seat? Two, you
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: hear Jalen Hurts scream. Did you hear him screaming and
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: swearing at people on the line?
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: Like the trouble and I called it. That's one of
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: my only victory laps I can take this week is
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: the trouble in paradise that's going on there. If I'm
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: Devante Smith, I'm absolutely not pushing any injury I have
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: after that whole like stare down of Jalen Hurts last week.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: How hot is Nick Sirianni's seat right now? Because truly
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: we another conversation we might need to be having. I
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: know that I know that this man won a Super
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Bowl semi recently. I know that, you know, Jalen Hurts
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: is a player that has been on a downward trajectory,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: but you have so much talent on that defense and
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: you're just making terrible decisions. So this team isn't who
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: people thought they would be. I get that the division
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: is a little bit more difficult. But still, like you,
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: we have to start having this conversation of how long
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: is he going to last?
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: Once again, do we? And this sounds insane.
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: Because I think that there are other people like obviously
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: Todd Bowles and Dan Quinn who are in the first
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: to be fired conversation.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: But if there's like a longer shot on Sirianni, hello.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Fourth, he's a fourth shortest odds to be the first
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: coach fired.
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: Are Bowles, Quinn, who's the other person ahead of him?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Evan.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: Hi, folks. Hi, Evan.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: What is it?
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: Todd Bowles minus 150 is what I see right now,
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: which let me tell you, that is some chalk. Then
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: it's D'Amico, then Jim Harbaugh, and then Sirianni with a
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: bunch of other people. But that is what I see
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: right now. I'm actually looking at another source or two
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: to see if it's consistent, but holy macaroni.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Much more likely to be Sirianni. Agreed. I do. I
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: do daily radio.
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: So if I look at another source, Bowles, huge favorite,
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: then it's our ball. And then LaFleur, Matt.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: I could see LaFleur, but Harbaugh's not going anywhere.
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, though. I think that they and I can't.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: I can't remember if I said this on this show
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: or another show. I think they're more likely to give
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: Justin Herbert a change of scenery before they are to
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: fire him.
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: I got to be honest.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I talk to Bucs people frequently, and they
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: are adamant. The Glazers who own the Bucs hate negative press.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: They're really paranoid about that. They do not fire coaches midseason.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: That's just historically a bad bet to make. You can
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: look at all the bad coaches they've had. They don't
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: fire any of them in the middle of the season.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: They should, but they don't.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Who are the other people, Evan? There was one more
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: that surprised me, and I can't remember whose name you said.
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so looking at both lists here, it's Bowles at
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: the top, then D'Amico second. This list has D'Amico much longer.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: So D'Amico seems.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: To have different prices. Harbaugh's consistent at the top. Sirianni,
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: Dan Quinn.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: Area?
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: I don't think D'Amico's going anywhere this season either. I
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: think that they keep him for one more year. gotten
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: a lot out of CJ Stroud that I don't think, listen,
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: I get that earlier in his career, he looked lights out,
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: but we've kind of seen, you know, the regression with
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: people like Jaden Daniels and Drake May through like those
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: first few years, they have a little bit of a
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: drop off. That defense is still elite. They're dealing with
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: some injuries in the way that they've performed through the postseason.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: I know that they've started 0-4, but I don't think
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: that you can get rid of D'Amico Ryans. I would
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: say it's got to be Bowles, Quinn and then Sirianni.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: But I think that Eagles fans definitely have the higher,
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: you know, like play in all of this because they'll
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: be loud and mean and whatever. And I think that
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: that can sometimes push an organization.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: And, and Howie Roseman also not, um, not shy about
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: making big moves.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: One more thought, Evan, you have another.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, this might be sacrilegious, but if Green Bay gets
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: blown out at home against Chicago this weekend, that might, that,
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: I mean, Hard to have a better like situation to
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: do it in than a backup coming in and winning
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: by like 20 plus and Ben Johnson ripping his shirt
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: off in the road locker.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Just saying.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: I was going to say if it's not Caleb, then
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: I could see that happening. But at the same time,
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: do we think that with the way that the division
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: is kind of folding, like the Vikings are fake. the
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Detroit is beatable. I just, I don't know if the
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: bears have one of the.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: Most difficult schedules.
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know if with Micah Parsons coming back, you
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: can really justify firing your head coach unless you really
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: wholeheartedly believe that it is an addition by subtraction situation,
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: because that division is still anybody's in my opinion.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: It's attempt checks. I don't know if green Bay is
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: the type of organization to do that either. I don't know.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: I'd have to do a temp check on how they
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: feel about him in the current moments.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: That seems a little hasty for the Packers. Who is
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: your crash of the week?
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: My crash kind of sticking with the conversation that we're having.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: I have Houston and the Chargers here. I get the Chargers.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: Houston got out to an early lead and then absolutely
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: just choked that away.
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: And you know what? Good for George Pickens.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: Absolutely a hero of the day in Dallas and for
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: our producer Gifford.
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: But yeah, What a meltdown from Houston.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: The other thing with the Chargers is I get that
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: they looked like they were still in it competitive towards
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: the end there. But with all of their injuries, the
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: way that they're managing Herbert, I don't believe in Mike
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: McDaniel at this point. It just looks like an absolute
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: dumpster fire. And I wouldn't be surprised if Justin Herbert
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: has a broken rib right now. And if his top
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: offensive linemen are going to be out for coming weeks,
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: how do you send a guy like that out there
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: to just continue to get killed? And it kind of
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: reminds me of last season. I don't respect Justin Herbert.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: You're never wrong. You're just early, but he definitely got
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: some cool points from me last year when he went
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: out there and played with that hand and was still
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: letting people just punch the shit out of him and
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: continuing to play.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: He's a tough guy.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: I just don't know what his issue is.
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: I really don't. Is it McDaniel? Is it that he's
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: a weenie?
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: I really, I don't know, but you went silent. Both
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: of these teams are just in purgatory.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: The Chargers are really a tough team to back right now.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: Plus three and a half at home against the Broncos
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: next week. That's one I'm going to take a closer
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: look at because it does seem like a divisional game.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: Extraordinary by low, but without those offensive linemen, this team
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: just feels awful. They feel so flat. And this is
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: not an excuse for how bad Justin Herbert has been.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: They don't do anything well. There's nothing I like about
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. The line is supposed to be good, but
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: it's not healthy. Omarion Hampton is not taking a step forward.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Vlad McConkie can't stay healthy. He's easily their best weapon.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: And then defensively, they are soft. And Derwin James was out.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: So there's just nothing. And Mike McDaniel....
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: The NFL figured him out big time. Big time. He
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: had something cooking in Miami for a minute, but.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: He looks lost. Herbert looks lost. He's not improving. It's
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: just a mess all around. So you've handed out a
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: couple of good ideas for futures.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: I'm going to add one to the mix for my Clutch.
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: Of the Week.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: I'm a futures girl, man. It's where I make my
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: bread and butter. I literally... That is.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: this episode started with, I got to figure out what
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: my lane is.
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: And this is it.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: It always has been dude.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: I hit CJ Stroud and Will Anderson both for rookie
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: of the year, a couple of years ago. And ever
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: since then, I knew, I knew who I was as
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: a person.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: It's good.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: It's important to know. I might be buying high here,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: but I'm going to buy it anyway. In fact, I
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: already bought it. Ben Johnson, six to one to win
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: coach of the year.
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: Are you worried about their schedule?
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: What I'm not worried about is the fact that this
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: guy has already bagged three wins with three different starting quarterbacks.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: That's going to bode pretty well in any sort of
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: vote for coach of the year. The offense just chugs
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: along with any one of these guys. They had 34
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: first downs yesterday against the Jets. The Jets ran 32 plays.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just crazy. Um, let's see what, how
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: bad is this upcoming schedule? Because I have not looked
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: at this.
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: But it's real bad.
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: I think that my fear with Ben Johnson, as much
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: as I love an abrasive person, I wonder if the
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: fact that he's not the most light, like let's, let's
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: be real about it.
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: He's kind of a dick. I love him for it,
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: but he is, he's not relatable.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: He's not like one of these people who you can
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: just sit and have a conversation with because he's just
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: so football, so smart. And then when you look at him,
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: you wouldn't expect it, but he's kind of a jerk.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: And I wonder if that like rubs like the voting
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: media wrong.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, Mike Rabel won last year.
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: Well, talk about rubbing somebody right, babe.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: Well, good point. Who is your clutch of the week?
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: My clutch of the week is going to be Kyron Williams.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: I needed him when it mattered most. And here's the
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: other thing. The reason that he won this over some
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: of the other last minute touchdowns that we saw, he
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: literally got freaking helicoptered. out of bounds, just like you
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: see in the movies, like it needed like the banana peel,
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: like the little running soundtrack in the back gets up
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: and just puts his head down. They go back to
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: him and he continues to work. For me, it has
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: to be Kyron Williams here. They needed that win. They
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: needed to get back on track. They needed to be
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: the team that people have expectations about and leave it
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: to Kyron Williams after getting his cheeks clapped on the
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: sidelines for a.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: Second to go out there and get it done, man.
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: What a guy.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, big time win for the Rams. Big time win
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: for everybody in that offense. Matt Stafford at the end
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: of this game proved why he is one of the
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: best quarterbacks in the NFL.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: His fourth quarter numbers were incredible.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: I have those here somewhere buried in my notes, but
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: he was sensational late in this game. Oh, there it is.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: 13 of 17, 149 yards in the fourth quarter. Puka Nakua,
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: five catches, 76 yards. in the fourth quarter alone and
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: he was missed and everything opened up and allowed Kyron
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: Williams to excel at the end of this game.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: Now, how is the diva of the week? Not this
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: referee that cursed at Trey McBride. This is easy. He's
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: just a diva. No, I'm not.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: An impossible diva.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: What would make you say something like that? It's pretty obvious.
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: Diva alert!
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's the referees as a whole. That's
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: another option. But my nominee is actually going to be
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: Drake May for faking a shoulder injury. to be an
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: excuse as to why he has sucked. Because I'm sorry,
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: you don't, you literally, conveniently after getting your ass beat
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: and playing the worst game you've played in your career,
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: go to the media, ah, my shoulder, wah, my shoulder.
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: And then they have to put you on the injury
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: report because if they don't, they're going to get in
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: trouble for that.
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: They take the, you're off the injury report. You're fine.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: You go out there and you have a decent game.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: And where is the shoulder now? Like, are you kidding me?
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: I thought that this was just a diva move and I, Listen,
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: I like Drake. I think he's going to be fine.
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: I love following his wife on the internet. I am
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: very much a fan.
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry. That is such a diva move.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: It is. I think I remember it.
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: It was in the finals when LeBron James pulled a
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: move like that many, many years ago.
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: I just.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: He's a diva.
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: Like, I love him. And I get that he's going
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: through a lot of crap. And, you know, people are
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: mad at me for asking if he cried on the sidelines.
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: But come on.
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: Like, that.
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: Just it's football, man.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: Off it up.
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: Let's bring in the Oracle. We've got a Monday night
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: football parlay to get to as well. Evan Abrams back
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: on the show. What did you learn this weekend other
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: than how to pronounce Calicamanis?
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Greek freak.
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: Honestly, there's so much coming off the weekend going into
• 45:53
  Speaker 5: next week. Just some fun things I'll toss at you.
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: I tweeted this after the Cowboys went over the total,
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: but they have now gone over in 10 straight games.
• 46:02
  Speaker 5: Longest streak since the Cowboys, of course, themselves back in 2010.
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: Dallas is 17-4 to the over since the start of
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: last season. I mean, even bringing Houston over the total
• 46:13
  Speaker 5: is something many teams can't do. So even this week,
• 46:17
  Speaker 5: let's see, what was their matchup this week? Yeah, Tampa Bay, 47.5,
• 46:19
  Speaker 5: which is kind of low for them. Here's one I've
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: been tracking that I think you might actually like. So
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: If you look at the 32 head coaches across the league,
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: nine have like a defensive background to them, which quickly
• 46:32
  Speaker 5: would be Glenn Quinn, D'Amico, Halfley, Minter, McDonald, Vrabel, Sala, Bowles, uh,
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: right now against coaches, not in that group. They're eight,
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: 18 and two against the spread so far this season. Uh,
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: so all offensive head coaches, uh, and you know, there's
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: some special teams guys, but these are defensive minds. Not
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: exactly fantastic, which, I think it's kind of interesting. And
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: then this one is just blanketed. Since the start of
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: last season, teams to lose by more than one possession,
• 47:04
  Speaker 5: so nine or more, 85, 57, and two, 60% in
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: their next game. So just blindly looking at teams that
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: get blown out, covering the spread with an overreaction in
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: the next game, about 30 games over 500 in the
• 47:20
  Speaker 5: last two seasons, season and a half, which I find
• 47:23
  Speaker 5: kind of intriguing. I have a lot more, but I'll
• 47:26
  Speaker 5: just tell everyone to just listen to me.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: Keep coming back. So that would be a blowout is
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: what's the digit parameter on that?
• 47:36
  Speaker 5: More than one possession. So I do nine or more.
• 47:38
  Speaker 5: Like you couldn't have tied the game if you had
• 47:41
  Speaker 5: the ball at the end.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: So you'd want to go commanders, jets. Oh, yeah. Cardinals.
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I count the card.
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: The Cardinals feels like that's where having an idea of
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: how the game actually wrapped and how these fourth quarters
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: go I think is important because if you're updating power
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: ratings or talking about a stat like that, the Cardinals
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: threw a pick six at the end of the game,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: but the Giants very easily could have just fallen down
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: and won the game.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: Instead, they ran it in.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: So that's where I would throw the Cardinals out of
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: that personally.
• 48:14
  Speaker 5: Fair.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: Um, one of the things I wanted to ask you
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: about was the bucks. So I didn't end up betting
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: the bucks. Uh, this is one of the later in
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: the week bets that I made. I got them at
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: three and a half. The line closed at some shops
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: at three summit, two and a half. So the bucks
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: have this really long, no cover streak.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: Did it end? Oh, no, no. Yeah.
• 48:42
  Speaker 5: For our closing lines, it closed at two and a half,
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: closed at two and a half at a majority of
• 48:46
  Speaker 5: the books. So much other people reported as well. My data,
• 48:50
  Speaker 5: two and a half. So 13 straight. Definitely. If you
• 48:54
  Speaker 5: got it earlier in the week, you covered the spread.
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: There was threes. There was three and a halves. But
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: late money came in on Tampa. So two and a
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: half at the close.
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: That is why closing numbers matter. And especially around those
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: key numbers like three and seven. Last thing for you, Evan,
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: before we cut you loose, I want to ask you
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: a trivia question because you are the Oracle and I
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: don't think I can get many things past you. Maybe
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: I'll start doing this every Monday when we bring you
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: on only one NFL team has ever made the playoffs
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: after starting. Oh, and four, do you know who it
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: was and when it was?
• 49:31
  Speaker 5: Uh, well, I know the previous record was the Texans
• 49:36
  Speaker 5: who had done it a bunch of times. Wasn't it the, uh,
• 49:41
  Speaker 5: it was like the chargers, but not 90, 91, 92 area.
• 49:45
  Speaker 5: He's unbelievable.
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: He's unbelievable.
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: It was the chargers of 92. How are you pulling that?
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: I see this. You see this note though.
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: You see this note though. Every year. This is, I've
• 49:54
  Speaker 5: read this multiple times and I saw the Texans one
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: last week. Uh, and I had just seen that earlier.
• 50:00
  Speaker 5: So I'm, you know, it is what it is.
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: Golf clap, uh, current own four teams, Miami dolphins, probably
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: not making the playoffs.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: Texans, Titans, chargers again, um, bucks, And that's it. Those
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: are your win list teams in the NFL. Thank you
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: so much.
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: Any of those teams are going to make the playoffs.
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: I have to be honest.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: You know, history would tell you they are definitely not
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: going to make the playoffs. It is time for our
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: Monday night football primetime. Same game parlay brought to you
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: by draft Kings.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: Who you got? What do you got?
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: I'm going to go with Drake London for an anytime
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: plus 110 over on DraftKings. No touchdowns so far this season.
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: And if the Falcons are going to keep rolling, they've
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: got to get him involved. And it's just one of
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: those things. Once again, I hate to keep kind of
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: going back to this, but it's just predicting when things
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: are going to happen for people. It didn't work for
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: me with the interceptions this week, but Drake London has
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: got to get more involved in this offense.
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: No touchdowns so far. He's due. Just me chasing the
• 51:05
  Speaker 4: fact that he's due.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: With Michael Penix back in the fold, he is a
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: completely different wide receiver.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: I don't mind that at all.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: I like Alvin Kamara over three and a half receptions.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: You can get this at about plus 130. No Travis
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: Achan tonight. So it's Condre Miller splitting work with Kamara.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: They're two very different players in this offense. Kamara is
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: going to be the pass catcher. Miller is going to
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: be the short yardage power back. Kamara was on pace
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: for 62 catches last year when it was the two
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: of them in the backfield.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: So I like Alvin Kamara going over.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: His reception prop Kendra likes Drake Miller or Drake, Drake
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: Miller drink London. Anytime touchdown, the cold medicines kicking in.
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: So go and find that over at draft Kings plus
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: three 90 on the parlay.
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: And one more comment on this. I was also looking
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: at the total in this game. Both of these defenses
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: are really injured and, And we know that these teams
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: can score when they want to. So something I'm looking at.
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: I haven't gone to the window yet, but love Drake London.
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: I just both these defenses are really injured. I'm wondering
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: if it's going to be similar to the game that
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: we saw last night, which, by the way, Dr.
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: Chow predicted.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: That he did.
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: Two very injured defenses played last night. And again, here,
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: 47 and a half is the total in that one.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: I did take a sprinkle on the Falcons money line
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: as well because, well, I am who I am. And
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: we are going to place this SGP at DraftKings because
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: they are the king of sports books. And they are
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: offering profit boosts every game day.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: Go and find them. DraftKings, the crown is yours. The
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: favorites will.
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: Return on Thursday as we deep dive into week five
• 52:44
