  NFL question, We'll take a break. We'll get some college on the other
• 0:02
  side, just for fun. The Bengals and the Lions both I'm just sitting
• 0:06
  here looking at pen Gaming Mari Star Casino in Vicksburg, not necessarily for the
• 0:11
  Super Bowl, but both are sitting at thirteen to one odds right there together.
• 0:15
  We saw what Detroit did last year on the run that they made.
• 0:17
  We know what Cincinnati can be. Which team is better equipped to make a
• 0:23
  deeper run this year? Is it the Bengals or is it the Lions?
• 0:25
  Or maybe both? I think both are playoff teams. I mean, Joe
• 0:30
  Borrow's got to stay healthier or else is to move point. But we're going
• 0:33
  to make that assumption, or we have to for the discussion. I would
• 0:37
  say the Bengals are maybe slightly better for both the playoff teams. I think
• 0:41
  the Bengals, because of Burrow, can kind of take it to the next
• 0:45
  level and win in the playoffs. You know what I mean? I think
• 0:47
  could be Remember when they beat you know, they went through their unbeat Cincinnaman
• 0:51
  who beat sense who beat Kansas City? Excuse me, Borough's done. I
• 0:55
  mean, nobody seems to do it. I think he can. I think
• 0:58
  Detroit. I like what they've done, Chick, I don't know how you
• 1:03
  feel. Something tells me that, boy, they had their great chance.
• 1:07
  I don't think they'd beat Kansas City, but they really had their chance against
• 1:11
  San Francisco. And I wonder if it's only going to get tougher now.
• 1:15
  I don't know how much better the Bears are going to get. I think
• 1:18
  that the Packers are going to be good, but I just have this feeling
• 1:22
  in my gut that maybe the Lions missed an opportunity. Not that they're not
• 1:26
  going to be good. They will be, but boy, all the pieces
• 1:30
  have to work together. I think. I think Jared golf functional. I
• 1:34
  think he can win with him, but I don't think he's can win necessarily
• 1:38
  for you. Although I thought he made pivotal plays in the playoffs for him.
• 1:44
  I thought they probably were too aggressive with the lead and cast themselves a
• 1:49
  chance. I would favor the Bengals slightly more provided Burroughs healthy, but I
• 1:55
  like both of them, you know, competing, and I do think the
• 1:57
  Lions have a better chance than I do. Think the Bengals have a tough
• 2:01
  division in the certainly AFC stuffer, but I like them in the playoffs better
• 2:07
  than I would the Lions going forward.
