Nate's NFL Week 16 Football Wager with Cousin Vinny and The Gaffer · Nate's Daily Wager

• 0:06
  Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
• 0:10
  am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
• 0:13
  mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
• 0:20
  December 21st, 2025. And I think it's is today the
• 0:26
  first day of winter or was it yesterday?
• 0:28
  No, yesterday was the wife's birthday.
• 0:30
  But sometimes the winter solstice finished falls
• 0:34
  yesterday or today. So I'm not sure when the
• 0:35
  official day was. But hey, positive thing is from
• 0:39
  here on out all the days get longer, right?
• 0:42
  So that's a positive. That's a good thing, right?
• 0:44
  It's not going to get darker anymore.
• 0:46
  So Speaking of darkness yesterday thought I had that
• 0:49
  thing wrapped up that I was looking all smart and stuff that
• 0:53
  Packers were going to pull that off.
• 0:54
  They were going to not only cover, they were going to win
• 0:57
  and they were also going to make that bet that I had that futures
• 1:01
  bet that I had for them winning NFC North look a lot better too.
• 1:05
  And then well, somehow the bears did the bears things that
• 1:09
  they've been doing this year. I then I tell you, I still don't
• 1:12
  know, you know, because love went out.
• 1:14
  So we still don't know like are the bears good?
• 1:16
  Are they not good? Are are they just like getting
• 1:19
  lucky like the commanders did last year?
• 1:21
  I, I just don't know. I I honestly.
• 1:24
  Do not. Know so but somehow here they
• 1:27
  are they're 11 and four and still no idea whether or not the
• 1:31
  Bears are good so we push forward today, Sunday, Sunday,
• 1:35
  Sunday, lots of football, lots of games of consequence and one
• 1:39
  of the games I'm looking at I know.
• 1:41
  Listen, this is hard because, as my longtime listeners know, the
• 1:45
  three things that. I hate.
• 1:46
  Most nuclear Holocaust thinking that Raisin was a chocolate chip
• 1:50
  in my cookie. And the New England Patriots.
• 1:53
  They hate me. Some New England Patriots, but
• 1:55
  hey, I'm looking at this line. They're getting 3 1/2 against
• 1:59
  the Ravens. Look.
• 2:00
  I know they. Had an epic, epic collapse last
• 2:03
  week. But was it really an epic
• 2:04
  collapse or was it just that the Bills and Josh Allen are that
• 2:08
  damn good and the Ravens just haven't shown anything?
• 2:11
  They haven't shown any life. So I'm getting the hook.
• 2:14
  I'm getting money. I mean, I'm getting points like
• 2:17
  this and I know they're decent and Baltimore isn't.
• 2:20
  I mean, it's, it's hard, but these are the things that you
• 2:23
  got to overcome. If.
• 2:24
  You're gonna wager, and you're gonna be good, or at least
• 2:28
  profitable, or at least not suck too much.
• 2:30
  So this is where I got to go, and this is what I'm going to
• 2:32
  do. And I'm gonna sprinkle, too.
• 2:33
  So we're going to take the New England Patriots plus 3 1/2
• 2:37
  against the Baltimore Ravens. The little sprinkle on the money
• 2:40
  line in today's NFL football action.
• 2:44
  See anything better than that? Pound it.
• 2:45
  That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
• 2:47
  Vinnie Give. Him what he got, gaffer.
• 2:49
  Keep it going boys. Tell him like it is, ladies and
• 2:54
  gentlemen, we got another English Premier League match up
• 2:57
  coming up on this Sunday. It's only one game today on the
• 3:00
  slate. It's a big one, though.
• 3:02
  It's the villains and it's Manchester United getting after
• 3:05
  it. Villains have won a bunch of
• 3:07
  games in a row. They're in the top five in the
• 3:09
  EPL. Man United, after a slow start
• 3:11
  to the season, they're doing all right.
• 3:13
  They're 7th or 8th. They're not in that bottom half.
• 3:16
  This game, though, It's going to be a tight one.
• 3:17
  It's going to be close, but those villains are going to get
• 3:20
  it done. Aston Villa with the three
• 3:22
  points they're going to get the West, Man United can't hang.
• 3:25
  They're trying to get there but they're not there yet.
• 3:28
  Aston Villa with all three points.
• 3:30
  Good luck, you're going to need it.
• 3:32
  You. It's Carlson, Vinny.
• 3:34
  It's Week 16 and we're here for some Sunday football action.
• 3:38
  The season's winding down. Playoffs are starting to shake
• 3:42
  out. Teams are getting eliminated.
• 3:44
  Teams are moving up, moving down, and the key is to plan
• 3:48
  accordingly when making your picks.
• 3:51
  One team trending down is the Kansas City Chiefs.
• 3:55
  As you all saw, basically Patrick Mahomes went down along
• 3:59
  with the whole dynasty and basically the run is over, the
• 4:03
  window is shut. So credit to the Chiefs.
• 4:06
  It was a heck of a run, but it's finally over.
• 4:10
  Which if you look at the Chiefs injury report, which basically
• 4:13
  includes about half of their roster, a couple notables,
• 4:17
  Patrick Mahomes, Rasheed Rice, Trent Mcduffie, Chris Jones,
• 4:23
  hamstring. They are going to be a wounded
• 4:27
  animal, a wounded franchise, bruised egos are heading in to
• 4:32
  where Tennessee. I really wish it was anywhere
• 4:35
  but Tennessee, but but silver lining, Tennessee does have some
• 4:39
  things to play for here. Tennessee has not won at home in
• 4:43
  over a year. That being said, I think they
• 4:46
  actually are going to be playing for something here and I do
• 4:49
  think they're going to get up for this game and I do think
• 4:52
  they're going to win here. Now they're getting three
• 4:54
  points, but I'm going to go ahead and just take the money
• 4:57
  line, which should set up about 1:30.
• 5:00
  You might be able to get a little better than that, but
• 5:03
  scratch the three points and take the Titans on the money
• 5:06
  line to get their first win of the season at home and just
• 5:10
  basically take advantage of a demoralized, injured Chiefs team
• 5:16
  that has been holding on for a very long time and just let go
• 5:20
  last week. I think it's pretty obvious pick
• 5:22
  here and I think it's a pretty safe, probably the safest pick
• 5:26
  of the week on the board. So take the Titans money line
• 5:30
  against the Chiefs and take it to the bank and lock it up and
• 5:34
  until week 17 this is Lock Cousin Vinny with your lock of
• 5:38
  the week. Don't.
