Latest / Nate's Daily Wager / Nate's NFL Wild Card Sunday Football Wager with Cousin Vinny
Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:21January 11th, 2026 and it was a great day.
- 0:25Yesterday Vinnie and I both hit our wagers.
- 0:29I was a little worried bears weren't doing their part and
- 0:33getting to the 24 that I needed as I had mentioned, but they
- 0:36were just saving it for the fourth quarter.
- 0:38They got 25 in the 4th. So my over hit late.
- 0:41But the poor thing is we both got our wins.
- 0:44We're moving forward. So today see if we can go to and
- 0:47oh again after this me, I'm my looking at this late game.
- 0:52And then as my longtime listeners know, the three things
- 0:55that I hate most nuclear Holocaust, the event, not the
- 0:58band, too much cumin in any food and the New England Patriots.
- 1:03Do I hate the New England Patriots?
- 1:05So given my proclivity of hatred for the Patriots, I had to
- 1:10really focus and search and think how much is that biasing
- 1:14what I'm thinking? Because here's what I'm
- 1:16thinking. They had a Goodyear record wise,
- 1:19But when you go through and you look at who they beat and more
- 1:21importantly who they lost to, they lost to the Raiders in week
- 1:251. Raiders aren't good.
- 1:26If you really look at what they did, it's not really impressive.
- 1:30They had a last place schedule and they took advantage of that
- 1:33and hey, hats off to them. They did what they're supposed
- 1:35to do. But the playoffs, whole
- 1:37different story. You got a game that's going to
- 1:40be tight. You got people that aren't ready
- 1:43for this. And on the other side of the
- 1:45ball, you got the Chargers. You got guys that are tested,
- 1:47that are ready to do what they need to do.
- 1:50It's not an early game. Yes, they're coming across the
- 1:53country, but it's late. Their bodies will be adjusted.
- 1:56They're going to go out there, they're going to put up points
- 1:58and this is going to be close, going to be close enough that if
- 2:01I'm getting 3 1/2, I love having that hook, then I think I'm
- 2:04going to be all right. So we're going to take LA
- 2:06Chargers plus 3 1/2 against the New England Patriots and
- 2:10tonight's NFL wild card action, football action, playoff
- 2:14football action. See anything better than that?
- 2:16Pound it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 2:18to it. Vinnie, give them what you got.
- 2:20I'm not sure if Gaffer's around. I don't know how the schedule
- 2:22thing goes with wild cards, boys.
- 2:26Huge cause of mini. It's wild card Sunday after a
- 2:30great wild card Saturday. What a wild one last night and I
- 2:33hope you guys tuned in yesterday because the cause of mini just
- 2:35does nothing but big winners. We love the Panthers plus 10 and
- 2:39it hit all right now on the Sunday.
- 2:42Today's probably the best day of football of the whole year to be
- 2:44honest with you. I love the wild card weekend.
- 2:46I got my birds playing in the mid middle game sandwiched
- 2:49between 2 great games and man, buckle up from a better
- 2:55perspective. There's really only one game to
- 2:56bet on today. There's really only one pick to
- 2:58bet on today and that is the over in the Jacksonville Buffalo
- 3:02game. Superman Josh Allen and the
- 3:06league rushing leader Mr. Cook go into to Jacksonville to play
- 3:13the shrieking hot Jaguar. I never thought I'd say that.
- 3:16Another thing I didn't think I'd say coming into this season,
- 3:18Trevor Lawrence looks like a first round pick.
- 3:21Eight game-winning streak and 24 TD passes in that game.
- 3:24Jesus. But yeah, all right, they over
- 3:27under sits at 51 1/2 points and I just don't see how this game
- 3:31doesn't Max out. This is going to be an absolute
- 3:35thriller. I think the Jacksonville Jaguars
- 3:37have an average 34 points in order in their winning streak.
- 3:41Buffalo or the Cardiac kids, whatever, they're down in the
- 3:44fourth quarter. You know, Josh Allen's going to
- 3:47make it a game. Both teams got weapons.
- 3:50They're going to be playing down Jacksonville.
- 3:52The weather's going to be fine. So man, they're going to be
- 3:55points scored in bunches here. So I don't even think you have
- 3:59to overthink it. I don't got to dive more in the
- 4:01stats. Just it's just some time to just
- 4:04sounds right. Just pound the over 51 1/2 on
- 4:09the Jacksonville Buffalo game and enjoy the rest of the games
- 4:13this afternoon and go birds and until next week at the
- 4:16divisional round. This is Cousin Vinny with your
