- 3:19Speaker 1: you dressed in eagles gear, which worries me a little
- 3:24Speaker 1: bit as someone along with Simon who on the two
- 3:27Speaker 1: episodes last week, it often described how into the chiefs
- 3:33Speaker 1: we were, and Raybon I'm going to ask you specifically
- 3:36Speaker 1: about your side later in the show. Just explain to
- 3:40Speaker 1: me and to Simon and to those watching on YouTube. Cerner,
- 3:44Speaker 1: why are in your Eagle's hat which always makes me nervous.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Yeah, don't get nervous, Chad. It's not that big of
- 3:52Speaker 4: a deal. I would say all three of my props
- 3:55Speaker 4: involve Eagles players in some way, shape or form. Last week,
- 3:59Speaker 4: most props involved Chiefs players, so I was wearing a
- 4:02Speaker 4: Chiefs hat. So that's that's why I'm rocking the Eagles
- 4:06Speaker 4: hat today.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Got it, all right? Raybon? Give me the reason for
- 4:09Speaker 1: your Eagles gear. You'r Randall Cunningham throwback jersey.
- 4:14Speaker 5: During COVID, I had a lot of disposable income. I
- 4:16Speaker 5: didn't know what to do with it, so I bought
- 4:18Speaker 5: a bunch of jerseys, and really, this is the only
- 4:22Speaker 5: time I can wear them.
- 4:23Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna get to it then, h Curner
- 4:27Speaker 1: and Raybon last week did the first version of their
- 4:33Speaker 1: Propapalooza pod. They will do the second one on Wednesday.
- 4:38Speaker 1: On last week's version, Remind me if I'm wrong, or
- 4:44Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong. Kerner's prop, one of them
- 4:47Speaker 1: was Drew Tranquil under seven and a half tackles. It's
- 4:51Speaker 1: currently minus one sixty. Also, there was violence inflicted upon me.
- 4:57Speaker 1: I mean, who wants who wants to own it?
- 5:00Speaker 5: Raybon Hey, I you know Sean was explaining who Drew
- 5:04Speaker 5: Tranquil was and I just said, I'm not Chad Milman.
- 5:08Speaker 5: I know who Drew Tranquil is. This is not convinced me.
- 5:12Speaker 1: For the record. For the record, I'm fully aware of
- 5:16Speaker 1: most starters on NFL teams. But it's when you bring
- 5:21Speaker 1: out your fucking let's go bet John Beck under a reception,
- 5:27Speaker 1: don't don't traumatic traumatic.
- 5:29Speaker 4: Experience, John Bates. It's bas there you go, Andrew Beck.
- 5:33Speaker 4: Andrew Beck is the other.
- 5:35Speaker 1: That's what I mean. When you're bringing outt fourasting receivers
- 5:38Speaker 1: that don't even average a catch a game, that's when
- 5:41Speaker 1: I might not get it. Okay, So kra like Drew Trankwell,
- 5:45Speaker 1: Raybund liked under eight and a half total pass catchers
- 5:48Speaker 1: for Kansas City. I think Raybond like no miskicks up
- 5:53Speaker 1: to plus one seventy five. Crder liked most tackles and
- 5:57Speaker 1: assists is a long shot. Oorn Burks plus three twenty
- 6:00Speaker 1: am I missing anything from that one Fellas.
- 6:06Speaker 5: Yep, so long ago. They'll do the last week props.
- 6:11Speaker 6: Bro let's got on there. We got we got some
- 6:14Speaker 6: new ones for you Chad today.
- 6:15Speaker 1: I know this week. This week you each have three
- 6:18Speaker 1: brand new props for me and Simon, some of which
- 6:22Speaker 1: I imagine is previewing prop a pal loser. Maybe these
- 6:25Speaker 1: are all special ones. Raybon, kick us off, give us
- 6:28Speaker 1: your current best prop.
- 6:31Speaker 5: All right, well, I'm not gonna kick us off, but
- 6:33Speaker 5: we're gonna go with field goals over one and a
- 6:35Speaker 5: half for Kansas City at minus one twenty five. I
- 6:38Speaker 5: would bet this up to about minus one fifty. So
- 6:41Speaker 5: I think that the Chiefs are going to struggle in
- 6:43Speaker 5: a red zone. That's kind of what's been the history
- 6:47Speaker 5: of Patrick Mahomes going up against Vic Fangio defenses. He's
- 6:51Speaker 5: been able to move the ball, but really struggled in
- 6:54Speaker 5: the red zone in Kansas City this year, just number
- 6:58Speaker 5: twenty six and fourth down attempts and they've only gone
- 7:00Speaker 5: for it twice all year on more than fourth and
- 7:03Speaker 5: one with Mahomes starting. So Andy Reid will take the
- 7:08Speaker 5: points here. Harrison Bucker fifteen to fifteen. The last two postseasons,
- 7:13Speaker 5: Eagles have allowed multiple field goal attempts in all three
- 7:16Speaker 5: playoff games, the Chiefs have made two or more and
- 7:19Speaker 5: eleven of eighteen Mahome starts two or more in seven
- 7:23Speaker 5: of eight against Fangio defenses with Mahomes and six of
- 7:27Speaker 5: eight playoff games over the last two postseasons. So I
- 7:30Speaker 5: think there's a high likelihood that you get at least
- 7:33Speaker 5: two Harrison Butner field goals. I don't even mind laddering
- 7:37Speaker 5: you know, three four as well, because I do think
- 7:40Speaker 5: that the Eagles are going to be able to get
- 7:42Speaker 5: some stops down in the red area.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Seven. You got any thoughts on that.
- 7:48Speaker 3: I mean, I hope he's right. I was gonna say
- 7:50Speaker 3: we're heavy. I'm heavy on the under so that would
- 7:52Speaker 3: be pretty nice for me. And I totally agree that,
- 7:55Speaker 3: you know, the few defenses that give the issues. I mean,
- 7:58Speaker 3: even this season, though we've seen their numbers, it was,
- 8:00Speaker 3: what but they round twenty second this year, Chris and
- 8:03Speaker 3: the red zone efficiency like exactly twenty. Yeah, this season,
- 8:06Speaker 3: they've already struggled with it. So I think it adds
- 8:09Speaker 3: to it the fact that you know they've struggled against
- 8:11Speaker 3: the defense and their kicker. Before his injury, he was automatic.
- 8:14Speaker 3: Even since he's been back, he's been pretty good. And
- 8:16Speaker 3: then the fact that they're in a dome, it only
- 8:18Speaker 3: adds to me, like in these kicker props even more.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Yeah, look, we love the kicker props. We love when
- 8:23Speaker 1: Sean and Raybon talk about the kicker prop. So I'm
- 8:25Speaker 1: glad Raybon is euphemistically kicking it off with a Kicker
- 8:32Speaker 1: prop because I was going to ask them if they
- 8:33Speaker 1: were any up that they liked. So that's good, Kerner.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Give me your Eagles prop.
- 8:40Speaker 4: Well, I'm three of them. But the first one is
- 8:42Speaker 4: it's definitely a juicy one. It's Saquon Barkley to have
- 8:46Speaker 4: the most rushing attempts in the game at minus three
- 8:48Speaker 4: point fifty. This is one I would kind of bet
- 8:51Speaker 4: Tenny juice. But you know, Barkley's a massive favorite in
- 8:55Speaker 4: this market, rightfully so, but the press should be a
- 8:58Speaker 4: lot higher. I mean, his rush tent prop is around
- 9:01Speaker 4: twenty one and a half right now. The next closest
- 9:04Speaker 4: is cream Hunt at eleven and a half. Then you
- 9:06Speaker 4: have Jalen Hurts at nine and a half. Mahomes and
- 9:08Speaker 4: Pacheco are both around six unlike yards, where you know,
- 9:12Speaker 4: any given play a player can pop off for fifty
- 9:15Speaker 4: plus yards. It's a wide range of outcomes. You know,
- 9:18Speaker 4: a player can only get one rush attempt on any
- 9:20Speaker 4: given play, So the distribution of these props as much tighter.
- 9:25Speaker 4: So in my assimulation, I'm showing like a ninety six
- 9:28Speaker 4: percent chance he has the most rush attempts. But then
- 9:32Speaker 4: you have to factor in, you know, the chances of
- 9:34Speaker 4: him getting injured. He would have to get injured before
- 9:36Speaker 4: getting like fifteen rush attempts. If he has fifteen rush
- 9:39Speaker 4: attempts and he gets nucked out of the game, he'll
- 9:41Speaker 4: probably still take down this market. Or like the ideal
- 9:46Speaker 4: game script where the Chiefs get up early to a
- 9:50Speaker 4: big lead early Kareem Hunt ends up, you know, rushing
- 9:53Speaker 4: the ball twenty plus times, Eagles have to get in
- 9:55Speaker 4: a pass out of game script. Factoring all that in,
- 9:58Speaker 4: I'd say a very conservative project be about eighty five percent,
- 10:01Speaker 4: so like minus five sixty for Barkley to lead the
- 10:06Speaker 4: game in rush attempts. So I think even though it's
- 10:09Speaker 4: juicy and pricey at minus three fifty, I still think
- 10:12Speaker 4: there's some value.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Here that one doesn't correlate exactly to what I would
- 10:18Speaker 1: like to happen in the game. But it's interesting. Yeah,
- 10:23Speaker 1: it's true. I mean it's interesting the delta. I know,
- 10:27Speaker 1: you know Raybon and Stuckey Raybon jump in here because
- 10:31Speaker 1: I know you and Stuck talked a little bit about
- 10:33Speaker 1: Saquon's rushing total prop. And this market was so inflated
- 10:41Speaker 1: before the NFC title game opened up, I think a
- 10:45Speaker 1: little bit more reasonably for the Super Bowl, but has
- 10:49Speaker 1: still been coming down. Do you have any thoughts on
- 10:52Speaker 1: his rushing total yardage prop?
- 10:56Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 10:57Speaker 5: So I think it's still about five yards too high,
- 11:01Speaker 5: which you can expect that in a game like this.
- 11:03Speaker 5: But one thing that's interesting it kind of goes with
- 11:05Speaker 5: what Seawn is saying, is that Sequon Barkley's been busting
- 11:09Speaker 5: off these exposive plays almost every game. If he doesn't,
- 11:13Speaker 5: they're inversely correlated his yardage and his attempts, right, because
- 11:17Speaker 5: if he doesn't bust off a seventy yard or on
- 11:19Speaker 5: one carry, he might need you know, eight carries, ten carries,
- 11:23Speaker 5: you know, a whole drive worth of carries, whatever that
- 11:27Speaker 5: may be, to get that same amount of yards multiple drives.
- 11:29Speaker 5: Even so, that's how you kind of have to think
- 11:31Speaker 5: about the attempt So just if you want to fade
- 11:33Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley or back Saquon Barkley, it's not as simple
- 11:37Speaker 5: as just going like over attempts over yards. I think
- 11:40Speaker 5: attempts would indicate he's probably struggling a little more than
- 11:44Speaker 5: just necessarily. Okay, the Eagles are in a positive game
- 11:47Speaker 5: scrip like they're gonna run the ball no matter what,
- 11:49Speaker 5: like up down, They'll run the ball as long as
- 11:52Speaker 5: they can, especially now, So I think you know, that's
- 11:56Speaker 5: something to keep in mind, is that his yardage is
- 11:58Speaker 5: gonna be a little inversely correlated with the attempts.
- 12:02Speaker 1: He also does tend to disappear sometimes there are there
- 12:05Speaker 1: are parts of the game where either there they've got
- 12:09Speaker 1: gain well in there for extended looks, or he just
- 12:13Speaker 1: sort of is one yard two yard, one yard, two
- 12:16Speaker 1: yard and then he breaks Yeah, how did he not?
- 12:19Speaker 5: Like he didn't even clear his his yardage prop last
- 12:22Speaker 5: in the championship game in the first run he got
- 12:24Speaker 5: like sixty sixty seventy yards, So yeah, that that kind of.
- 12:27Speaker 4: Well, he was dealing with that calf injury right like
- 12:30Speaker 4: he was out of the game.
- 12:31Speaker 5: He did Yeah, yeah.
- 12:33Speaker 4: I think if if he was healthy, I don't think
- 12:35Speaker 4: Gainwell plays more than just a handful of snaps. I
- 12:38Speaker 4: think that had to do with Barkley just like actually
- 12:40Speaker 4: being injured.
- 12:42Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean he's also when you guys get
- 12:44Speaker 5: to that volume level, like you almost gotta project like
- 12:48Speaker 5: a half a carrier carry for the backup, just because
- 12:50Speaker 5: it's so hard to stay healthy for that many snaps.
- 12:52Speaker 5: Like we've seen Barkley. We have a few games now
- 12:56Speaker 5: where they're giving him like all the carry. I think
- 12:58Speaker 5: even in the Week one he had he missed a
- 13:00Speaker 5: couple of players, but it's happened a few times. But yeah,
- 13:02Speaker 5: I agree. I don't think Gang Will get much time.
- 13:03Speaker 5: Maybe some third down pass blocking stuff.
- 13:06Speaker 3: Yeah, I think people just got unlucky. Right, this guy
- 13:08Speaker 3: had fifteen carries and it was in a blowout, and basically, Sirianni,
- 13:12Speaker 3: he's just been talking about saving him for this exact game.
- 13:14Speaker 3: So this game, I can't see him saving for anything, right,
- 13:17Speaker 3: There's no It's the offseason, so to me, I'd be
- 13:20Speaker 3: shocked to game Will getting many touches. What's your next prop, Chris?
- 13:24Speaker 5: All Right, So, speaking of which, I'm going with both
- 13:28Speaker 5: teams combined rushing yardage under two hundred and eighty five
- 13:32Speaker 5: and a half. You can get that at minus one
- 13:35Speaker 5: fifteen at bet three six five. I think this is
- 13:37Speaker 5: way too high. I have these teams projected to combine
- 13:40Speaker 5: for just under two hundred and sixty total rushing yards.
- 13:44Speaker 5: So Number one Kansas City. They've been struggling to run
- 13:48Speaker 5: the ball since they moved Joe Tony to left tackle
- 13:50Speaker 5: from guard. Ninety nine carries for the running backs three
- 13:54Speaker 5: point five to seven yards per carry since they made
- 13:57Speaker 5: that moves. And this is a top two run defense
- 13:58Speaker 5: in Philadelphia. On the other side, we've heard it all,
- 14:01Speaker 5: you know, all week. Kansas City, they haven't allowed one
- 14:04Speaker 5: hundred yard rusher. Now, I think they've had a very
- 14:06Speaker 5: easy schedule of opposing run offenses, has the Chiefs. But
- 14:11Speaker 5: I still think they're a good run defense because of
- 14:13Speaker 5: Steve Spagnol. Remember last two Super Bowls against Philly a
- 14:17Speaker 5: couple of years ago, they had a top five running offense.
- 14:21Speaker 5: He held them to three point six yards of carry
- 14:23Speaker 5: on thirty two carries. San Francisco comes in last year
- 14:26Speaker 5: top three rushing offense. Christian McCaffrey. How are we going
- 14:29Speaker 5: to stop them? Kansas City's one of the worst run defenses,
- 14:32Speaker 5: number twenty seven. They hold him to thirty one for
- 14:35Speaker 5: one to ten. The Niners total for the game just
- 14:37Speaker 5: three point five five yards per carry. So Spagnol's gonna
- 14:41Speaker 5: kind of he's gonna kind of switch into front's weight
- 14:44Speaker 5: in the down and kind of confuse them that way,
- 14:48Speaker 5: and you know, make Jalen Hurts make some checks and
- 14:50Speaker 5: things like that, so they'll find a way to slow
- 14:52Speaker 5: them slow Barkley down. I don't think he'll hop off
- 14:55Speaker 5: quite as much as he has the last couple of games.
- 14:57Speaker 5: And if you just look at the numbers philadelph you
- 15:00Speaker 5: combined rushing yards over this number in twelve or nineteen,
- 15:03Speaker 5: but Kansas City games hasn't happened all year. So you
- 15:06Speaker 5: look at the two teams combined, that's just twelve of
- 15:09Speaker 5: thirty eight, just thirty two percent. So and that's you know,
- 15:12Speaker 5: that's kind of what you're expecting here, which is why
- 15:15Speaker 5: I think this market is massively inflated, as you will
- 15:18Speaker 5: see for most of just offensive numbers to deal with
- 15:21Speaker 5: yardage and touchdowns. But yeah, I think this is about
- 15:23Speaker 5: twenty five yards too high, so it can be combining
- 15:25Speaker 5: rushing yards under two hundred and eighty five and a
- 15:27Speaker 5: half for both teams rushing that.
- 15:31Speaker 1: Does feel insanely high, going completely against expectation for the Chiefs,
- 15:36Speaker 1: who the last what three or four games we've seen
- 15:39Speaker 1: since Isaiah Picheco came back, He's not being used in
- 15:43Speaker 1: the same way. He's not getting as many carries. It's
- 15:46Speaker 1: really much more about Kareem Hunt. Kareem Hunt banging it
- 15:50Speaker 1: up the middle. Kareem Hunt five six, seven, eight yards
- 15:53Speaker 1: at the most, except when you know we have under
- 15:57Speaker 1: ten and a half yards for his longest carry. Oh
- 16:00Speaker 1: does that you know once in a four game span.
- 16:04Speaker 1: It just happens to be the game that we bet it.
- 16:05Speaker 1: But generally like this is not a big rushing team.
- 16:09Speaker 1: And with Joe Toney at left tackle, like Caliendo has
- 16:13Speaker 1: not been the same player.
- 16:15Speaker 5: Oh he's been terrible. Rights, So they both have like
- 16:19Speaker 5: they would both rank like bottom five. You know if
- 16:22Speaker 5: they had their PFF run blocking grade over the full year.
- 16:25Speaker 5: Since Tooney went to tackle and kali Endo went to guard,
- 16:28Speaker 5: it essentially made their run blocking worse at both spots.
- 16:31Speaker 1: So yeah, right, the only difference is now maybe my
- 16:35Speaker 1: Holmes is a little bit more protected at left tackle.
- 16:40Speaker 5: Yeah, but he also has like these negative ten yard
- 16:42Speaker 5: kneel downs that Sean knows very well. So, uh, that's
- 16:46Speaker 5: another way that you could like get like an out
- 16:48Speaker 5: to get under this number, even if you're kind of
- 16:50Speaker 5: sweating it, you know, maybe it's hanging around that to
- 16:52Speaker 5: eighty mark. You know, if Mahomes does to take some
- 16:55Speaker 5: kneel downs, you're you're you're definitely going backwards.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Also, you even talk about, I mean these both these
- 16:59Speaker 3: teams bleed clock. So even if the run game is
- 17:02Speaker 3: not working, both teams will still run it. That's who
- 17:04Speaker 3: they are in the second half. So that's even better
- 17:06Speaker 3: where you know, it could be a lot of thirty
- 17:08Speaker 3: and eight thirty sevens that they ran a two times
- 17:11Speaker 3: and the both teams won't care if they pick of
- 17:13Speaker 3: the first town, they'll probably run it twice again if
- 17:15Speaker 3: either team has a lead, Like they just both teams
- 17:17Speaker 3: their scripts all season have been leaning on the run
- 17:20Speaker 3: heavy in the second half. It just bleeds clock. So
- 17:22Speaker 3: like you said, even if both teams aren't successful, they're
- 17:24Speaker 3: still going to keep doing it and still keep eating
- 17:26Speaker 3: away at that clock, which plays even more to this
- 17:28Speaker 3: prop going under.
- 17:29Speaker 1: It's a really good point. Curner fire away.
- 17:34Speaker 6: All right.
- 17:34Speaker 4: Well, you know I already gave out a minus three
- 17:37Speaker 4: point fifty props, So let's go with a long shot here,
- 17:41Speaker 4: let's go. The first sack of the game is going
- 17:44Speaker 4: to go to Nolan Smith at sixteen to one. You know,
- 17:50Speaker 4: Smith was their first round pick last year, didn't do
- 17:54Speaker 4: much as a rookie, but he's really started to break
- 17:56Speaker 4: out over the final few weeks of the season and
- 17:59Speaker 4: ended the playoff. He actually leads the Eagles in pressures
- 18:02Speaker 4: since week fifteen with twenty three. He now is a
- 18:06Speaker 4: sack in each three rounds of the playoffs so far.
- 18:09Speaker 4: So if he gets a sack in the Super Bowl,
- 18:10Speaker 4: he'll be the first player ever to have a sack
- 18:13Speaker 4: in four playoff games.
- 18:15Speaker 6: So he's just on fire right now.
- 18:16Speaker 4: He might be going up against you know, right tackle
- 18:18Speaker 4: Jwon Taylor for most of the game, who's allowed a
- 18:21Speaker 4: team high forty one pressures.
- 18:23Speaker 6: So I love the matchup. You know, love is upside here.
- 18:26Speaker 4: He actually has my He's tied for the second highest
- 18:29Speaker 4: sack projection in this game. So you know, I show
- 18:33Speaker 4: a fair price for the first sack closer to plus
- 18:35Speaker 4: eight point fifty and we're getting sixteen to one on this.
- 18:38Speaker 4: This is offering too much value. It's also a fun
- 18:40Speaker 4: sweat too. I mean, who knows him the first sack
- 18:42Speaker 4: is going to be. But this is the market I
- 18:44Speaker 4: haven't bet on before. I haven't even seen a price
- 18:46Speaker 4: for this yet. But yeah, sixteen to one Nolan Smith
- 18:49Speaker 4: signed yep for that.
- 18:51Speaker 1: That does seem like fun. But as soon as you
- 18:52Speaker 1: wrote it down, I'm like, that's every single time Kansas
- 18:56Speaker 1: City drops back, there's going to be a super, super
- 19:01Speaker 1: exciting sweat happening with Nolan Smith. Evan is reporting that
- 19:09Speaker 1: this is what five to one.
- 19:12Speaker 3: I got it? Okay, no, no, no, he's saying this
- 19:16Speaker 3: is basically five to one every book and the one
- 19:17Speaker 3: Shawn's giving out. Go get it at bedt through six
- 19:20Speaker 3: five because it's insanely great value.
- 19:22Speaker 1: Ah got it all right.
- 19:24Speaker 3: And just to reiterate what he's saying, Nolan Smith has
- 19:26Speaker 3: already set the record for most sacks and Eagles history
- 19:28Speaker 3: in the playoffs. That's how impressive this kid has been.
- 19:31Speaker 3: He's gotten four sacks. Yeah, I know it's crazy, but
- 19:34Speaker 3: it was Brandon Graham at three and a half and
- 19:35Speaker 3: he just broke it by getting his fourth sack. So
- 19:38Speaker 3: when you really go through it, this kid every week,
- 19:40Speaker 3: like Shawn's breaking down, he's gotten better. This is the
- 19:44Speaker 3: type of game where they've been watching film on someone
- 19:46Speaker 3: for two weeks. They're gonna set them up, like they're
- 19:49Speaker 3: gonna know a move that's gonna work on this guy.
- 19:51Speaker 3: And like I like Sean saying, I love the those odds.
- 19:54Speaker 3: That's a great price for a guy to been waiting
- 19:56Speaker 3: two weeks. First, first drop back. He could set this
- 19:59Speaker 3: guy up for a little you know, knock his arms down, whatever,
- 20:02Speaker 3: swinging on them. Like, there's just a bunch of things
- 20:04Speaker 3: you go into when there's really good pass rushers against
- 20:07Speaker 3: subpar tackles. They know their weaknesses by this game, and
- 20:10Speaker 3: they know which is gonna work. So I love that value,
- 20:13Speaker 3: especially the fact that it's sixteen to one right now.
- 20:15Speaker 3: That's that's insanely high.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Well, you know what's interesting about having the two weeks,
- 20:20Speaker 1: and I think this goes for all three of you,
- 20:21Speaker 1: really is it's no different than Andy Reid Spagnolo Fango.
- 20:30Speaker 1: You've got two weeks to game plan for your weaknesses
- 20:35Speaker 1: and to game plan for another team's strengths. Right, So
- 20:39Speaker 1: let's say Kerner or Raybon or Simon Kerner start with you.
- 20:44Speaker 1: Over these two weeks, how much do you have to
- 20:47Speaker 1: incorporate the idea that someone might be looking to defend
- 20:52Speaker 1: against a trend that you've been identifying that is on
- 20:55Speaker 1: thep swing?
- 20:58Speaker 6: What do you mean exactly?
- 20:59Speaker 1: So over let's say, like on a week to week basis, Yeah,
- 21:03Speaker 1: there's only so much game planning someone can do to
- 21:06Speaker 1: improve their weakness against a team's strength. But over two weeks,
- 21:12Speaker 1: there's a lot of time to try to figure out
- 21:14Speaker 1: what that answer is. Right, So you're basing this based
- 21:18Speaker 1: on models that are identifying what you think are opportunities
- 21:22Speaker 1: or deltas in numbers, whatever the case may be. But
- 21:26Speaker 1: coaches are probably looking at that and thinking, Okay, that's
- 21:29Speaker 1: a tendency we need to fix. So don't you have
- 21:32Speaker 1: to account for that when you're modeling.
- 21:34Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, And I think, like, you know, I'm
- 21:36Speaker 4: going to use math for you know, ninety nine percent
- 21:39Speaker 4: of the way to get there and then kind of
- 21:41Speaker 4: incorporate that. And it kind of goes back to what
- 21:43Speaker 4: we're saying with Saquon Barkley, Like, obviously the Chiefs are
- 21:45Speaker 4: going to have a couple weeks. The game plan like,
- 21:48Speaker 4: how do we slow down Saquon Barkley? And I think
- 21:50Speaker 4: they have the scheme and coaching staff to do that.
- 21:53Speaker 4: So I'm probably a little bit lower on Barkley than
- 21:56Speaker 4: most in the market kind of going with what you're
- 21:58Speaker 4: saying is like the extra planning, uh to you know,
- 22:01Speaker 4: slow down somebody that's been unstoppable like Barkley. I think
- 22:04Speaker 4: it's more likely to be able to do that with
- 22:06Speaker 4: the extra week for sure.
- 22:08Speaker 5: Yeah, and Chad, I think what you're getting at is,
- 22:10Speaker 5: you know, stuck. You and I talked on the on
- 22:12Speaker 5: the pod about how a lot of times when you
- 22:15Speaker 5: have these pass thrushes and you know you're just gonna
- 22:18Speaker 5: get the ball out quick, and that's what's kind of
- 22:19Speaker 5: been happened with Mahomes and and and even Hurts, you know,
- 22:22Speaker 5: got the ball quicker in the championship. However, I like
- 22:25Speaker 5: Sean's bet because the Eagles are a lot more predictable
- 22:29Speaker 5: sack wise, pass rush wise, because Fangio already got burned
- 22:33Speaker 5: with the blitz. He's probably he usually does not blitz Mahomes.
- 22:37Speaker 5: It just doesn't really work, and so you're gonna have
- 22:40Speaker 5: you're not gonna get as many disguised pressures and guys
- 22:44Speaker 5: coming from every which way like you are with Spagnol,
- 22:47Speaker 5: who I think on the decisive play that Bills game,
- 22:50Speaker 5: I think he sent one of the corners. I think
- 22:52Speaker 5: he said it was either I think it was McDuffie
- 22:53Speaker 5: or somebody. So yeah, it's like that's with the Eagles.
- 22:56Speaker 5: You're not gonna get as much of that now. Of
- 22:58Speaker 5: course you could. It's the super Bowl to try to
- 23:00Speaker 5: break tendency, but they're gonna play it a lot more
- 23:02Speaker 5: straight up, just because they have that kind of talent
- 23:05Speaker 5: and you know, they've tried it the other way and
- 23:06Speaker 5: it hasn't really worked, so it's easy. I think it's
- 23:08Speaker 5: a little easier to bet their sacks and predict them
- 23:12Speaker 5: and model them than it is for the Chiefs.
- 23:14Speaker 3: Also, sometimes there's nothing you can really do, Like these
- 23:16Speaker 3: teams are so great. There's such at high levels. Like
- 23:19Speaker 3: my favorite thing everyone was talking about GM, you know
- 23:22Speaker 3: years ago after Mahomes came to the league and he
- 23:24Speaker 3: was like, yeah, well, guys know the books out on
- 23:26Speaker 3: him force them to his left right, so overload the
- 23:28Speaker 3: right side. And obviously Andy Reid they knew that the Chiefs.
- 23:32Speaker 3: He came in next year, he was perfect going to
- 23:34Speaker 3: his left, So now teams only do that anymore. Right,
- 23:36Speaker 3: it's all about getting up the middle on my homes.
- 23:37Speaker 3: So it's just funny where it's like, I'm with you, Chad,
- 23:40Speaker 3: there's there's gonna definitely moves. These guys will make the
- 23:42Speaker 3: just pieces, right, But at the end of the day,
- 23:45Speaker 3: it's like the Eagles run maybe four or five plays
- 23:47Speaker 3: honestly running the ball all season and no one can
- 23:50Speaker 3: stop it. Like that's how dominant they've been. So I
- 23:53Speaker 3: agree with you. There's gonna be things they're gonna try
- 23:55Speaker 3: to do and adjust in different looks, but at the
- 23:57Speaker 3: end of the day, it's like, you know, you just
- 23:59Speaker 3: can't stop great and this all you hope to do
- 24:01Speaker 3: is slow it down a little bit. So that's interesting
- 24:03Speaker 3: part of this one. It's like the already knows Spags
- 24:05Speaker 3: knows he can't stop this Seagull's rushing team. If he
- 24:08Speaker 3: can limit them in the red zone, that's gonna be
- 24:10Speaker 3: the key to this game.
- 24:11Speaker 1: Well, let's hope that the Eagles and Chiefs combined for
- 24:13Speaker 1: less than two hundred and eighty five and a half
- 24:15Speaker 1: rushing guys Simon. The upcoming Super Bowl reminds me of
- 24:20Speaker 1: an old parable, the story of the scorpion and the frog,
- 24:25Speaker 1: who sit at the bank of a river. The scorpion
- 24:29Speaker 1: asks the frog to carry him across, but the frog resists,
- 24:33Speaker 1: fearing the scorpion will sting him as they cross. The
- 24:38Speaker 1: scorpion argues he'd never do that since it would doom
- 24:42Speaker 1: them both. So the frog agrees and begins swimming across
- 24:46Speaker 1: the river with the scorpion pawn his back. But sure enough,
- 24:51Speaker 1: midway across the river, the scorpion does sting the frog,
- 24:56Speaker 1: spelling disaster for them. Both philosopher ers argue about the
- 25:01Speaker 1: lesson of this tale as they grapple with the nature
- 25:04Speaker 1: of good and evil, But to me, the takeaway is simple.
- 25:10Speaker 1: Neither the fraud nor the scorpion we're able to make
- 25:14Speaker 1: rational decisions nor operate in their own best interests because
- 25:18Speaker 1: they have never experienced the breathable, policible comfort of our
- 25:23Speaker 1: beloved sponsor, Tommy John. You don't have to cross the
- 25:28Speaker 1: metaphorical river of daily routine with inferior underwear. You need

- 26:37Speaker 1: question is which one of us is the scorpion and
- 26:41Speaker 1: which one of us is the frog.
- 26:44Speaker 3: M I'm probably the scorpion.
- 26:46Speaker 1: I think you are too.
- 26:47Speaker 3: Yeah, let's be honest.
- 26:49Speaker 1: I think one hundred percent. I don't even think. I
- 26:52Speaker 1: don't even think there's a question. Matt Mitchell is killing
- 26:56Speaker 1: it with these. He is on a roll. Yeah, Like
- 26:58Speaker 1: I just look to these.
- 27:00Speaker 3: Honestly, that gave me a view in it what I've
- 27:01Speaker 3: been like you reading me a bedtime story chat, And
- 27:03Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know how I feel about it.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Really, I feel like, you know what, When I was
- 27:08Speaker 1: reading it, I did feel like I was reading it
- 27:12Speaker 1: in sort of the voice tone and temper that I
- 27:17Speaker 1: used to read stories to my kids, and I felt
- 27:21Speaker 1: like I was killing it. The stage is set for

- 28:15Speaker 1: Here's a prop on Nick Giffen raised when he was
- 28:19Speaker 1: on with Simon and I last week and then also
- 28:22Speaker 1: discuss on Propapalooza Part one that he did with Grant Nieffer.
- 28:27Speaker 1: And I know, like the in the touchdown projections coroner,
- 28:32Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy has consistently been undervalued. So what about a
- 28:37Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy anytime touchdown plus under five and a half receptions?
- 28:45Speaker 1: Which Nick Giffen loved when we were discussing it last week.
- 28:49Speaker 4: Yeah, anything Nick Giffin does, I approve. I love the
- 28:53Speaker 4: idea because I mean Worthy can score a touchdown with
- 28:56Speaker 4: a design Russia attempt, so he has he already has
- 28:59Speaker 4: a clear have to do this. But I think, yeah,
- 29:02Speaker 4: his reception prop it's also a bit high. He's explosive,
- 29:06Speaker 4: So yeah, I think it makes a ton of sense.
- 29:07Speaker 4: And of course it came up, but that's that's a
- 29:10Speaker 4: genius idea.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Yeah, it's completely contrary, right, like because also there's a
- 29:15Speaker 1: lot of conversations like Xavier Worthy is going to be Simon,
- 29:17Speaker 1: I don't even know if you've noticed this, Like Xavier
- 29:20Speaker 1: Worthy is going to be one of those players who
- 29:24Speaker 1: people want to bet on MVP. That isn't Jalen Hurt,
- 29:28Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, Patrick Mahomes right, because that's what always happens.
- 29:33Speaker 1: You want to bet on that receiver, you know, who
- 29:37Speaker 1: has longish odds, who's the recipient of all the passes
- 29:42Speaker 1: as a contrarian play to the quarterback, who is most
- 29:45Speaker 1: likely to win it could be.
- 29:48Speaker 3: Also, I don't hate it just because we've already seen
- 29:50Speaker 3: the Eagles. As good as they are, they do have
- 29:53Speaker 3: some guys that are young in experience, and you saw
- 29:55Speaker 3: that with Terry McLaurin right, one mistackle and he broke it,
- 29:59Speaker 3: and the same can be saying here with Worthy. It's
- 30:00Speaker 3: like the type of defense that, yeah, if you make
- 30:03Speaker 3: one guy miss the way the Eagles play aggressive, especially
- 30:05Speaker 3: with their safeties, he could easily break one. But we've
- 30:08Speaker 3: seen the Eagles. They have some really good, great corners,
- 30:10Speaker 3: so you know if they put Quinny on Mitchell on him,
- 30:12Speaker 3: his night might be over and then you're good to go. Though,
- 30:15Speaker 3: you got the one catch right touchdown and this comes through.
- 30:17Speaker 3: So I definitely love the mind game of this one,
- 30:19Speaker 3: where it's like any Reid will find a way to
- 30:21Speaker 3: get this guy the ball, but it's all about the
- 30:23Speaker 3: matchup so he gets the wrong corner on him, he
- 30:25Speaker 3: just won't get the touches. So yeah, that feels a
- 30:27Speaker 3: little hot in me honestly, having him over five and
- 30:29Speaker 3: a half receptions. It's attack the Eagles, you attack the
- 30:32Speaker 3: middle of the field, right, We've seen that with the
- 30:34Speaker 3: tight ends these last couple weeks. So interesting that that's
- 30:37Speaker 3: that high.
- 30:38Speaker 1: That was at about four to one last week when
- 30:41Speaker 1: Giffen talked about it on the show Ray Bond. You
- 30:45Speaker 1: and Stucky talked a little bit about Dallas Goddard on
- 30:49Speaker 1: the Action Network podcast on the six Pack. Stucky's been
- 30:53Speaker 1: making bank on Dallas Goddard during the playoffs. Do you
- 30:57Speaker 1: have any thoughts on his reception totals which are getting
- 31:01Speaker 1: kind of expect kind of high, and on his yardage totals. Again,
- 31:07Speaker 1: he's been a guy who throughout the playoffs, everyone at
- 31:10Speaker 1: Action has been betting what do you like or not
- 31:14Speaker 1: like about his current prices?
- 31:15Speaker 5: So I think his reception prop is is too high,
- 31:18Speaker 5: Like you're betting him to get five catches. There's a
- 31:21Speaker 5: lot of ways that that could backfire. You know, Eagles
- 31:25Speaker 5: explosive plays in either facet that are not Dallas Goddard
- 31:29Speaker 5: Eagles to just have one of those games where they
- 31:32Speaker 5: pass on their you know, like twenty five times, which
- 31:36Speaker 5: is a very common thing for them. There's a lot
- 31:39Speaker 5: of ways that could go wrong. So I would rather
- 31:40Speaker 5: go with the yards because I think the Chiefs they've
- 31:44Speaker 5: given up the most yards to tight ends, like that's
- 31:46Speaker 5: they struggle with tight ends. Goddard. It's the most likely
- 31:48Speaker 5: to get a matchup on the weakest cheeks defender on
- 31:52Speaker 5: the field, whoever that might be Bolton, you know, whoever,
- 31:55Speaker 5: in coverage. So I think the yardage is better. But
- 32:00Speaker 5: and going back to the Worthy thing, I think what's
- 32:03Speaker 5: interesting with Worthy is and the reason why his reception
- 32:06Speaker 5: number is higher is because Andy Reid loves screens. In
- 32:10Speaker 5: the postseason, into two games, Worthy's had five screens thrown
- 32:14Speaker 5: to him total. Those are usually free catches, but he's
- 32:16Speaker 5: actually only caught three of the five. Usually you're expecting
- 32:19Speaker 5: him to catch five of the five. So I think
- 32:21Speaker 5: that's why the books are, you know, at that five
- 32:24Speaker 5: and a half number for Worthy, But five six catches
- 32:27Speaker 5: is a lot. It's easier to get when you get screens.
- 32:29Speaker 5: But got her to get five is that's that's kind
- 32:31Speaker 5: of a stretch. You know, I think the median is
- 32:34Speaker 5: closer to four, but so I would go yardage if
- 32:36Speaker 5: I'm trying to to bat Goddard at this point.
- 32:40Speaker 1: Yeah. What's interesting about those screens, and it speaks to
- 32:43Speaker 1: what you talked about earlier, Raybund, is what the Chiefs
- 32:46Speaker 1: have done is turn themselves into a quick passing screen,
- 32:53Speaker 1: long handoff offense. Maybe it's because of how they're being
- 32:57Speaker 1: played downfield, but also because I think Andy Reid is
- 33:00Speaker 1: just trying to account for that that is offensive line. Yeah,
- 33:03Speaker 1: it's just completely trash. There's nothing else he can do.
- 33:07Speaker 5: Yeah, and he has some speed now, he has some
- 33:09Speaker 5: speed at the receiver positions with Brown and Worthy, so
- 33:11Speaker 5: now they can make it work. I mean, if you
- 33:13Speaker 5: think about their receiving corps, Hopkins, Juju and Marky's Brown,
- 33:17Speaker 5: like they're kind of like afterthoughts, but like these guys
- 33:20Speaker 5: are all like thousand yard you know, former number one
- 33:24Speaker 5: receivers not even that long ago. But and then we're
- 33:27Speaker 5: these kind of the key cogs. So they have they
- 33:28Speaker 5: have enough pieces now to kind of make it work
- 33:30Speaker 5: with the quick game.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Yeah, but when you name all those players Hopkins, Juju, Brown,
- 33:37Speaker 1: and you compare them to aj Brown DeVante Smith. Like,
- 33:42Speaker 1: there's so many places in this game where the roster
- 33:47Speaker 1: is overwhelmingly talent wise in favor of the Eagles. The
- 33:54Speaker 1: only thing the Chiefs have happens to be the two
- 33:57Speaker 1: most important things, Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes.
- 34:03Speaker 5: Yeah, because even Spags, Spags and Fangio, I mean Fangos,
- 34:07Speaker 5: no Spags. But he's up there, he's up.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Oh No, I listen to me. This game is about Spags,
- 34:15Speaker 1: Read and Mahomes. That's why you bet I'm the Chiefs
- 34:18Speaker 1: At the end of the day. I want to get
- 34:20Speaker 1: into the sides and the totals a little bit, you know,
- 34:22Speaker 1: at the end, before we get out of here. But Crooner,
- 34:25Speaker 1: give me your next best prop.
- 34:29Speaker 4: Yeah, so I'm going to go with this, Will any
- 34:31Speaker 4: player have one hundred plus rushing yards?
- 34:33Speaker 6: I'm going to go with no at plus two ten.
- 34:37Speaker 4: And obviously Saquon Barkley is a serious threat to this prop.
- 34:42Speaker 4: I'm pretty much in line with his his rushing yard prop.
- 34:45Speaker 4: I have it around one hundred and ten. Uh. I
- 34:47Speaker 4: agree with raybun earlier saying, you know, it could be
- 34:49Speaker 4: a little bit high still, but at the end of
- 34:53Speaker 4: the day, I'm giving him around a fifty eight percent
- 34:55Speaker 4: chance or you know, minus one forty to clear one
- 34:58Speaker 4: hundred yards. But if he stays under that, like, who
- 35:01Speaker 4: the hell else is going to clear this number. Both
- 35:04Speaker 4: quarterbacks have rushing upside, but neither one has cleared one
- 35:08Speaker 4: hundred yards of the season. The last time either one
- 35:11Speaker 4: has cleared it was Jalen Hurts back in Week twelve,
- 35:14Speaker 4: three seasons ago, back in twenty twenty two. You know,
- 35:18Speaker 4: Cream Hunt might need thirty plus carries to clear one
- 35:20Speaker 4: hundred yards. So I'm showing about, you know, a five
- 35:24Speaker 4: percent chance a non Barkley player clear's one hundred yards.
- 35:28Speaker 4: But if you think about it like that five percent
- 35:31Speaker 4: of the time most of the time, like Barkley's also
- 35:34Speaker 4: clearing hundred yards. So you know, in that situation you'd
- 35:37Speaker 4: have two players clear hundre yards. So in my sim
- 35:41Speaker 4: I have it closer at about you know, sixty one
- 35:43Speaker 4: percent chance we do see a player, probably Saquon Barkley,
- 35:48Speaker 4: clear it. So I have the fair price of no
- 35:51Speaker 4: player closer to you know, plus one fifty five to
- 35:54Speaker 4: not clear one hundred yards. So I'm showing quite a
- 35:57Speaker 4: bit of value on this. No at plus two to
- 35:59Speaker 4: ten right now.
- 36:00Speaker 1: I am I'm not surprised at all that the pattern
- 36:04Speaker 1: we are seeing develop here is lower rushing totals, which
- 36:10Speaker 1: is in line with expectations. The Chiefs are doing something
- 36:14Speaker 1: to put the Eagles in a disadvantageous position where they
- 36:17Speaker 1: have to come back. Raybon, what's your last bet?
- 36:24Speaker 5: So I actually think that the the theme is just
- 36:28Speaker 5: offensive numbers in general are inflated. So for this one,
- 36:32Speaker 5: I'm going with combined passing touchdowns for both teams under
- 36:38Speaker 5: two and a half at plus one point fifty. And
- 36:41Speaker 5: this may seem scary, but if you look at the
- 36:44Speaker 5: Eagles playoff games under two and a half passing touchdowns
- 36:48Speaker 5: combined has Hitten all three, they've had two exactly in each.
- 36:52Speaker 5: Kansas City even had a playoff game where they only
- 36:56Speaker 5: had one combined passing touchdown in that in that used
- 36:59Speaker 5: to game. So four out of the five playoff games
- 37:02Speaker 5: between these two teams thus far, you've gone under this number.
- 37:06Speaker 5: And then you look at it for the season, and
- 37:11Speaker 5: Kansas City about seven of eighteen and the Eagles eleven
- 37:16Speaker 5: of eighteen, so it's about a fifty to fifty shot.
- 37:19Speaker 5: So I think this should be a lot closer to
- 37:21Speaker 5: even money. I have it at about about plus one
- 37:26Speaker 5: twenty five fair odds, so I bet this to about plus
- 37:29Speaker 5: one thirty here. But you know, just going off to
- 37:31Speaker 5: pass data, it's about even money. And if you look
- 37:34Speaker 5: at Hurts one or fewer passing touchdowns eleven of eighteen starts,
- 37:38Speaker 5: he has no three touchdown games, so Mahomes has about four,
- 37:44Speaker 5: so he could ruin it. But there's a very good
- 37:46Speaker 5: chance that you know, with the Eagles red zone defense strength,
- 37:49Speaker 5: and you know the way the Eagles like to do
- 37:51Speaker 5: their business with the touch push and whatnot, that you
- 37:54Speaker 5: stay under this number. And I think it's being its
- 37:57Speaker 5: being undervalued here because who wants to bet under you know,
- 38:01Speaker 5: two and a half touchdowns with passing touchdowns with Mahomes
- 38:04Speaker 5: with nobody, So yeah, give you under two and a
- 38:07Speaker 5: half combined passing touchdowns at plus them fifty.
- 38:10Speaker 1: Well. Also, this is perfectly correlated to your first prop,
- 38:13Speaker 1: which is over one and a half field goals by
- 38:17Speaker 1: the Chiefs. If you believe that the Chiefs will kick
- 38:19Speaker 1: more than one and a half field goals, then part
- 38:21Speaker 1: of you has to believe the Patrick Mahomes is not
- 38:24Speaker 1: going to throw multiple touchdown passes, which makes this a
- 38:29Speaker 1: perfect combination.
- 38:31Speaker 6: And he can also run.
- 38:31Speaker 5: He's running a lot more. You know, he showed he'd
- 38:33Speaker 5: even you know, take a designed run around and go on.
- 38:36Speaker 5: So there's a lot of different a lot of different outs.
- 38:38Speaker 5: But yeah, in general, I think offensive numbers are are
- 38:41Speaker 5: inflated in the market, and you know, probably waiting too
- 38:45Speaker 5: closer to the end of the week some of the
- 38:46Speaker 5: other prop shows we'll do to do some player props
- 38:48Speaker 5: because those are going to keep going up. But that's
- 38:51Speaker 5: kind of the theme for I think both of us
- 38:52Speaker 5: is just kind of finding these inflated offensive numbers pass
- 38:55Speaker 5: or run.
- 38:56Speaker 3: I love this point too, because both these teams player
- 38:59Speaker 3: and stuff out on offense, which is super conservative and safe,
- 39:02Speaker 3: and we know the deal when you get in the
- 39:04Speaker 3: red zone, that literally can kill the game, right if
- 39:07Speaker 3: you make a red zone turnover. So one of my
- 39:09Speaker 3: favorite bets of correlates with this is Eagles over one
- 39:12Speaker 3: and a half rushing touchdowns. It's minus one thirty. A
- 39:14Speaker 3: lot of books I'm seeing Bethtew six five is already
- 39:16Speaker 3: up to minus one forty. I still love that price
- 39:19Speaker 3: for that prop, just because I think Eagles, you've seen
- 39:22Speaker 3: it time and time again, Like it can be second
- 39:24Speaker 3: and eight thirty eight and the Eagles are running on
- 39:27Speaker 3: that down if they can just get it to two yards,
- 39:29Speaker 3: and they usually think the defense will dropped back. So
- 39:31Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of opportunity to playing that.
- 39:33Speaker 3: I agree with Chris that you know, both these teams
- 39:35Speaker 3: when they do get down there, they do play conservative,
- 39:38Speaker 3: like they just don't want to turn the ball over.
- 39:39Speaker 3: That's just both been their remo because they've just believe
- 39:41Speaker 3: in both their defenses. So I do love this play,
- 39:44Speaker 3: and there's a lot of ways to correlate it with
- 39:45Speaker 3: a lot of other props.
- 39:47Speaker 1: Well, look, these are all props that are tending towards
- 39:52Speaker 1: a game in which we expected to go under, and
- 39:56Speaker 1: that under now is anywhere from forty eight and a
- 39:58Speaker 1: half to forty nine and a half. Most places forty
- 40:00Speaker 1: eight and a half be three. SIS five is still
- 40:02Speaker 1: at forty nine and a half. I guess that in
- 40:07Speaker 1: any other game it makes sense. But if you look
- 40:10Speaker 1: at the past Super Bowls, the second half for five
- 40:15Speaker 1: six touchdowns scored with the Chiefs, all in games other
- 40:20Speaker 1: than that Bucks game where I think they were losing
- 40:23Speaker 1: by a touchdown. By ten points. How do we factor
- 40:28Speaker 1: in the explosive nature of sort of unexpected outcomes in
- 40:34Speaker 1: a Super Bowl? Simon, I mean.
- 40:37Speaker 3: It's tough to say. Like a lot of a lot
- 40:39Speaker 3: of the players that talk about it say it's because
- 40:40Speaker 3: of the halftime, right, They're just they're not used to
- 40:43Speaker 3: going from ten minute halftime to thirty minute halftime. And
- 40:45Speaker 3: that's just you know, the human element of that. That's
- 40:48Speaker 3: a big deal. Right, That's a lot of really high adrenaline,
- 40:51Speaker 3: especially heading to the game the first half, and now
- 40:54Speaker 3: you're just relaxing for thirty minutes. And to me, both
- 40:58Speaker 3: these teams should know how to handle, right, I mean
- 41:00Speaker 3: they were literally played against the other just two years ago,
- 41:02Speaker 3: and like to your point, the Chiefs they've been the
- 41:06Speaker 3: best team. I mean maybe, I mean, I guess Tom
- 41:08Speaker 3: Brady was great at it two, but they're incredible second half.
- 41:11Speaker 3: I Mean every time Mahomes is down, you know, ten
- 41:14Speaker 3: points or whatever going to halftime in the Super Bowl,
- 41:16Speaker 3: he comes out on fire. And even that Eagles game,
- 41:18Speaker 3: you go back and watch it, I think he scored
- 41:20Speaker 3: three straight touchdowns and then kicked the field goal at
- 41:22Speaker 3: the end to win it all. So yeah, that's that's
- 41:25Speaker 3: an interesting point you bring up chat. It's it's clear
- 41:27Speaker 3: effected the defense is more so than the offense. We've
- 41:30Speaker 3: seen both teams usually come out on fire in the
- 41:33Speaker 3: second half rather than the first half.
- 41:37Speaker 1: The first half total right now, I'm just checking here
- 41:41Speaker 1: in the Action Network app is twenty four, twenty three
- 41:49Speaker 1: and a half or twenty four and a half depending
- 41:51Speaker 1: on where you look. Does anybody have an opinion on
- 41:54Speaker 1: the first half total knowing there might be some cookiness
- 41:58Speaker 1: in the second half, and for the ranking for the
- 42:00Speaker 1: for the record, like luck rankings Kroner we had Nick
- 42:02Speaker 1: on there is no advantage luck rankings wise in this
- 42:07Speaker 1: game for the total or the side for that matter.
- 42:11Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I do tend to lean towards the under here.
- 42:17Speaker 4: We've been talking about it. Both teams play pretty methodically.
- 42:20Speaker 4: They run the ball a ton. Maybe we won't see
- 42:23Speaker 4: a Saquon Barkley sixty plus yard rushing touchdown here, and
- 42:27Speaker 4: it actually takes them, you know, seven or eight more
- 42:29Speaker 4: plays to score if they do. But yeah, I'm leaning
- 42:31Speaker 4: towards the end. That's an interesting take to just take
- 42:34Speaker 4: the first half under. I might consider that, especially, you know,
- 42:37Speaker 4: a number like twenty four. If you can get that
- 42:40Speaker 4: key number, I think that makes a ton of sense.
- 42:42Speaker 4: But I think if anything, yeah, I'll be on the
- 42:44Speaker 4: under here.
- 42:45Speaker 1: All right, Well that's what was gonna be my next question, Raybon,
- 42:50Speaker 1: I know where you stand. Tell the listeners, tell the
- 42:54Speaker 1: viewers your opinion on the side, total winning team, whatever
- 43:00Speaker 1: it is.
- 43:02Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the chiefs of the right side. I
- 43:04Speaker 5: think the Eagles have the better roster. I do agree
- 43:06Speaker 5: with that. But I look at the way Spagnolo has
- 43:09Speaker 5: been able to scheme against top rushing attacks in the
- 43:13Speaker 5: last two Super Bowls just you know, like those are
- 43:17Speaker 5: bad Kansas City run defenses that he used, you know,
- 43:20Speaker 5: kind of disguises and he just kind of pulled different
- 43:22Speaker 5: things out of his hat, and you keep thinking he's gonna,
- 43:24Speaker 5: you know, run out of ways, and he keeps figuring
- 43:26Speaker 5: it out. And I think the real key matchup here
- 43:29Speaker 5: is but I like, I think Saquon will get his
- 43:32Speaker 5: you know, like as he has. Oh yeah, you're not
- 43:34Speaker 5: gonna fully stop Saquon. So but I think the key
- 43:36Speaker 5: for Spags is he can do a lot of things
- 43:39Speaker 5: pre snap that just makes Jalen Hurts think, you know,
- 43:43Speaker 5: a lot of different looks blitz is from all over
- 43:45Speaker 5: the place, switching into different fronts in the run game,
- 43:49Speaker 5: and you know coverage wise that you're gonna challenge Hurts
- 43:52Speaker 5: to make checks at the line of scrimmage over and
- 43:54Speaker 5: over and he's he's gotten better at that. But still
- 43:57Speaker 5: I wouldn't say he's you know up there. Yeah, So
- 44:00Speaker 5: I think that's really the key. And on the other side,
- 44:02Speaker 5: I think we saw that the even the Commanders moved
- 44:05Speaker 5: the ball against the Eagles, it was just the turnovers
- 44:08Speaker 5: they couldn't overcome. You know, you're not gonna probably get
- 44:10Speaker 5: that with the Chiefs. You know, I would be surprised
- 44:13Speaker 5: if the Chiefs turn it over more than maybe once
- 44:16Speaker 5: if that, And so you're gonna be able to just
- 44:18Speaker 5: kind of dink and dunk and you'll probably have to
- 44:20Speaker 5: kick some field goals. But at the end of the day,
- 44:23Speaker 5: I trust bags and I trust my home. So rolling
- 44:26Speaker 5: with the Chiefs minus one and a half. And if
- 44:29Speaker 5: you want to take like an exact like the last
- 44:31Speaker 5: two Super Bowls have been exactly three point three points
- 44:36Speaker 5: in favor of the Chiefs too, so you can take
- 44:39Speaker 5: like an exact or but I wouldn't I wouldn't hesitate
- 44:42Speaker 5: to kind of take something in that real like Chiefs
- 44:44Speaker 5: by one to six or something like that too.
- 44:46Speaker 1: Coner, you hinted under a strong opinion about anything.
- 44:53Speaker 4: Well, I tend to I'm going to have, like, you know,
- 44:57Speaker 4: fifteen to twenty props, so I kind of see what
- 45:00Speaker 4: I'm going to be rooting for and what correlates and whatnot.
- 45:02Speaker 4: But I'll probably pass on, you know, the side, but
- 45:06Speaker 4: I think, yeah, the under waiting to see I'm curious,
- 45:09Speaker 4: do you guys think it'll go back up go down?
- 45:12Speaker 4: But I feel like waiting on the under would make
- 45:15Speaker 4: sense because you're going to get more money to come
- 45:17Speaker 4: in towards the end, So just trying to time what
- 45:20Speaker 4: the best number would be. Maybe like you just recommended
- 45:22Speaker 4: looking at the first half, but I feel like when
- 45:25Speaker 4: you're waiting for the under, you can just kind of
- 45:27Speaker 4: see if the market will go up once we get
- 45:29Speaker 4: a little bit more public money in on the over.
- 45:31Speaker 1: Yeah, Simon, I'm curious your thoughts on that.
- 45:34Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'll just start with Chris's point, either team
- 45:38Speaker 3: to win by exactly three right now, I bet through
- 45:40Speaker 3: six five, Yes, is plus four hundred, So that's a
- 45:44Speaker 3: nice exact little bet. And you know, we've seen mahomes,
- 45:47Speaker 3: you know, other than that crazy overtime usually likes to
- 45:50Speaker 3: win these games by three, right, That's that's the their
- 45:53Speaker 3: mo They play the clock, they let it run and
- 45:55Speaker 3: they kick the field and they win. Or if they're
- 45:57Speaker 3: up by three, they'll just run the clock out. So yeah,
- 46:00Speaker 3: it's it's a pretty good number right now. Over at
- 46:02Speaker 3: Beth through six five. Yeah, my view of a chat was,
- 46:05Speaker 3: I'm I was with Sean. I thought I could be
- 46:08Speaker 3: patient on this total, and you know, I'm having a
- 46:10Speaker 3: good time over the weekend, and I get you a
- 46:13Speaker 3: message that some respected money was coming in on the
- 46:16Speaker 3: under and a lot of books were about to move it.
- 46:18Speaker 3: I had to run around try to find as many
- 46:20Speaker 3: fourty nine and a half as I could, and it's gone, Like,
- 46:24Speaker 3: I know, you just said you think it's a Betris
- 46:26Speaker 3: six five. I think it's just a glitch on our app.
- 46:27Speaker 3: But I'm looking at their book right now it's forty nine.
- 46:29Speaker 3: So oh really, Okay, if you could still find the
- 46:31Speaker 3: four and a half, I definitely grab it as a
- 46:32Speaker 3: key number. But it's pretty insane. The books took a
- 46:36Speaker 3: stand on this just because Sean just broke it down.
- 46:39Speaker 3: Like all the money right now early is on the
- 46:42Speaker 3: over that's gonna be four times the amount comes Sunday.
- 46:46Speaker 3: Like the Joe public betters, they haven't really bet this
- 46:49Speaker 3: game yet. They're they're just you know, waiting until that
- 46:51Speaker 3: next paycheck come on Friday and they'll lay it into
- 46:54Speaker 3: the Super Bowl year. So to me, if you missed
- 46:57Speaker 3: a four and a half, be patient, Like the book,
- 47:00Speaker 3: they might move it through the key number of forty
- 47:02Speaker 3: eight and a half, but I would be shocked, just
- 47:04Speaker 3: because they have no need to. Like the amount of
- 47:06Speaker 3: money pouring in right now on the over, it just
- 47:09Speaker 3: has to offset this professional mind that is coming on
- 47:11Speaker 3: this under. So yeah, I would say, if you missed
- 47:13Speaker 3: the forty nine and a half, be patient. I do believe
- 47:16Speaker 3: we'll go back, because right now it's overwhelming the out
- 47:20Speaker 3: of money right now on the over. So the fact
- 47:22Speaker 3: they have moved that a couple forty and a halfs
- 47:23Speaker 3: to a couple of respective books, it is pretty shocking,
- 47:28Speaker 3: all right.

- 50:39Speaker 2: I will note before I begin that's that this began
- 50:42Speaker 2: so long ago. I can remember listening to these episodes
- 50:46Speaker 2: at my normal terrible nine to five human job, and
- 50:50Speaker 2: I would submit every year, and mine might have been
- 50:54Speaker 2: the worst of all.
- 50:55Speaker 3: So like, I do want to.
- 50:56Speaker 2: Stress that my selections here of what I liked and
- 50:59Speaker 2: what I submit to be through six five is not
- 51:03Speaker 2: a judgment on those that did not make it. I'm
- 51:05Speaker 2: sure they were far better than the ones that I
- 51:08Speaker 2: did ten years ago. Okay, First of all, I want
- 51:10Speaker 2: to call out two that played into the hands of
- 51:15Speaker 2: our sponsor, Tommy John, who again is in no way
- 51:18Speaker 2: affiliated with us, but it was good pandering, and I
- 51:20Speaker 2: love good pandering.
- 51:22Speaker 3: The first is Sam.
- 51:23Speaker 2: Householder, whose prop was big sacks total sacks over hundred
- 51:29Speaker 2: three and a half and our beloved super fan Chloe
- 51:33Speaker 2: Chris Acopolis give me that D, which was Devide Smith,
- 51:39Speaker 2: DeAndre Hopkins and the Big D himself, Dallas Goddard all
- 51:43Speaker 2: over their receiving yards.
- 51:46Speaker 1: Ball tis standing.
- 51:48Speaker 2: Yep, So no big sacks or give me that D.
- 51:51Speaker 2: You're free to bethos yourself under whatever title you'd like. Okay,
- 51:54Speaker 2: So now here are the official honorable mention. So these
- 51:57Speaker 2: were ones that just missed the cut of being submitted
- 52:00Speaker 2: to BET three sixty five also from our friend Chloe,
- 52:03Speaker 2: Go go Goddard, Dallas Goddard, five or more catches, sixty
- 52:08Speaker 2: or more yards a touchdown and Super Bowl MVP. This
- 52:12Speaker 2: one from Pierre's Eton. This is Big City Lights one
- 52:18Speaker 2: touchdown reception each for Hollywood Brown, Dallas Goddard, and Paris Campbell.
- 52:25Speaker 2: A little play on the three.
- 52:26Speaker 7: Of their names.
- 52:27Speaker 1: That's fantastic.
- 52:28Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty good, pretty good.
- 52:29Speaker 2: It's a shame that Paris Campbell's like non viable entity
- 52:33Speaker 2: in the in the playoffs, but it's very clever. Points
- 52:35Speaker 2: for being clever. Michael Freeberg had two that play into
- 52:39Speaker 2: the storyline that it is both Saquon Barkley and Cooper
- 52:44Speaker 2: Dejane's birthday on Super Bowl Sunday. First is the Eagles
- 52:48Speaker 2: birthday bash. Saquon two touchdowns and a Cooper interception. And
- 52:53Speaker 2: this one, which I found very clever, Saquon's twenty eight
- 52:57Speaker 2: saque to record twenty eight run plus receiving yards in
- 53:01Speaker 2: each quarter.
- 53:03Speaker 1: Ooh that is good.
- 53:05Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a Oh this was Gideon Martin. I'm
- 53:09Speaker 2: sorry Gideon that you did not win, but you did
- 53:11Speaker 2: submit to that I really enjoyed. First is winning hurts,
- 53:15Speaker 2: Losing hurts. Eagles money line hurts does not win MVP.
- 53:21Speaker 2: And one of my very favorites a return from Wentz.
- 53:26Speaker 2: Ye came Carson Wentz to attempt a pass.
- 53:31Speaker 1: Ah, well, look that was a big one. Ray Bond
- 53:34Speaker 1: and Stuck you had a long conversation about, you know,
- 53:37Speaker 1: would someone other than a quarterback attempt to pass. I
- 53:41Speaker 1: feel like we should have gotten bet Maybe we can
- 53:44Speaker 1: get bet three six five to do an alternative one
- 53:46Speaker 1: just for that, because that's pretty good and that's going
- 53:49Speaker 1: to be one that I think a lot of people
- 53:50Speaker 1: would be interested in.
- 53:52Speaker 2: Dave Helfen submitted failed to the Chiefs. The Eagles win
- 53:57Speaker 2: on a go ahead score with under thirteen seconds remaining
- 54:02Speaker 2: in regulation. I'll special fuck you to me the person
- 54:06Speaker 2: reading it. So thanks Dave, It's true. Stephen Contrerez, another
- 54:13Speaker 2: great one, Obi Juan Mahomie and Kwan Solo, Sequon and
- 54:19Speaker 2: Mahomes to combine for four hundred plus passing, rushing and
- 54:23Speaker 2: receiving yards.
- 54:25Speaker 1: Well, that one feels really interesting. Kerner and Raybon, can
- 54:28Speaker 1: you do top of your head projections? Saquon, you both
- 54:32Speaker 1: have like one between one oh five and one ten
- 54:34Speaker 1: rushing Mahomes. I don't know what you have for his
- 54:38Speaker 1: passing yard.
- 54:38Speaker 3: Of general.
- 54:41Speaker 5: Fifty so that's uh, that would be about three.
- 54:44Speaker 6: Sixty men Mahomes and others Berkley.
- 54:46Speaker 5: Yeah, and then you have about thirty rushing for Mahomes.
- 54:49Speaker 5: That's that's three ninety, and then another like ten to
- 54:52Speaker 5: fifteen receiving for Yeah, I guess the median would be
- 54:56Speaker 5: around four hundred ish.
- 54:58Speaker 1: That's incredible. Wonder how much research, because you know, it
- 55:01Speaker 1: was fun about these back in the day. People would
- 55:03Speaker 1: send research, they would send spreadsheets, they would send images
- 55:07Speaker 1: about how they were doing it. So I wonder if
- 55:08Speaker 1: this guy went back and did a lot of research
- 55:11Speaker 1: because people usually do that. It's fascinating.
- 55:13Speaker 2: Oh, I still got nine thousand page emails with people
- 55:17Speaker 2: showing me their math, and I want to be like,
- 55:19Speaker 2: I can't stress this enough. Bet three, six, five will
- 55:23Speaker 2: do the math. You don't need to do the math there.
- 55:25Speaker 2: They're not going to take your word for it. How
- 55:27Speaker 2: this should be priced?
- 55:29Speaker 1: I love it, It's great. This one is very important.
- 55:31Speaker 2: Before I get to our six finalists, I do want
- 55:34Speaker 2: to congratulate longtime listener Brian Goldberg and his son Gerald,
- 55:41Speaker 2: who I think of every time I let one of
- 55:43Speaker 2: you use extended profanity. Sorry earmuffs, Gerald, but I want
- 55:48Speaker 2: to thank you because your submission allowed me to go
- 55:50Speaker 2: on this quick rant.
- 55:52Speaker 3: This one was.
- 55:53Speaker 2: Called pick licks lix. Will there be a pick six
- 55:57Speaker 2: in Super Bowl Lix? And I just want to say
- 56:02Speaker 2: that probably the simplest example of the decline of American
- 56:05Speaker 2: sports in general and are descent into academic and artistic
- 56:10Speaker 2: malaise more specifically, can be found in the NFL's treatment
- 56:15Speaker 2: of their beloved Super Bowl logo and what used to
- 56:18Speaker 2: be our annual national embrace of Roman numerals. Because we
- 56:23Speaker 2: used to have original designs for each of these Super Bowls.
- 56:26Speaker 2: Everyone on this show is old enough to remember those.
- 56:28Speaker 2: They were incredible, They were bright, and they were original.
- 56:32Speaker 2: They represented a time and a place, which is kind
- 56:34Speaker 2: of what the Super Bowl is. Every season is its
- 56:36Speaker 2: own thing. But then, because the NFL is a multi
- 56:40Speaker 2: billion dollar organization run with the artistic vision of a
- 56:43Speaker 2: Connecticut law firm, it's now delivered like a decade and
- 56:47Speaker 2: a half of the most soulless paint by number of
- 56:50Speaker 2: monstrosities of a logo. But worse of all, they've encouraged
- 56:55Speaker 2: the use of normal, non Roman numerals throughout the media,
- 56:59Speaker 2: which you'll never in the description of one of these podcasts,
- 57:02Speaker 2: and you know, people will complain, well, I don't know
- 57:05Speaker 2: Roman numerals. That's the whole goddamn point is every year
- 57:09Speaker 2: you get a brief lesson on Roman numerals, your dad
- 57:11Speaker 2: explains them to you, or a trusted adult or a
- 57:14Speaker 2: Roman and you'll learn a little bit about it, and
- 57:16Speaker 2: we say, isn't that kitchy and fun? And then we
- 57:19Speaker 2: go back to using regular ass numbers for everything else.
- 57:22Speaker 2: So I just wanted to thank you the Goldbergs for
- 57:26Speaker 2: letting me go on that free framet.
- 57:37Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks Goldbergs. That was really Great.
- 57:42Speaker 2: Okay Now who are six finalists. These were submitted to
- 57:46Speaker 2: Bet three sixty five and their trading team selected the winner.
- 57:50Speaker 2: Number one Damien Glick, who was one of at least
- 57:54Speaker 2: forty people to submit a prop called Hurts So Good
- 57:58Speaker 2: aka the Ellen Camp. This one was Jalen Hurts two
- 58:03Speaker 2: hundred and fifty plus yards, fifty plus rushing yards, two
- 58:07Speaker 2: plus passing touchdowns, a rushing touchdown, Eagles money line, and
- 58:12Speaker 2: Hurts MVP. So basically, the Hurts So Good is the
- 58:15Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts career game.
- 58:18Speaker 5: They so good.
- 58:28Speaker 2: The second most common title is from Pierce Eton, who
- 58:32Speaker 2: had the best version of it, which is all Barkley,
- 58:36Speaker 2: no bite, Barkley fifteen or more rush attempts under one
- 58:41Speaker 2: hundred yards rushing, no touchdowns, which I felt like a
- 58:45Speaker 2: very Sean and Chris style prop.
- 58:47Speaker 1: Yes, totally, they basically gave. They basically just gave that yep.
- 58:52Speaker 2: Number three from John Reevey. Oh Say Kwan you see
- 58:58Speaker 2: saquon rushing yards verse is the national anthem length in seconds,
- 59:03Speaker 2: as Sakwan's total is currently at one fifteen and a
- 59:06Speaker 2: half somewhere around there, and Nashal anthem is somewhere around
- 59:08Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty one hundred and twenty one seconds.
- 59:11Speaker 2: So a very good prop, very cleverly named number four
- 59:15Speaker 2: Ray Hogan the three peat three for the Chiefs to
- 59:20Speaker 2: three peat by exactly three points on their third successful
- 59:24Speaker 2: field goal in the last three minutes of regulation.
- 59:28Speaker 1: Big time trying to play every time he does another one.
- 59:33Speaker 5: We thought he's made his all time best.
- 59:35Speaker 3: And look at this.
- 59:37Speaker 2: Unbelievable number five from someone just called Lesteif this is
- 59:44Speaker 2: the three cheat Philly to have three or more accepted
- 59:47Speaker 2: penalties than the Kansas City Chiefs.
- 59:50Speaker 1: Ah, I get it, I get it the favoritism.
- 59:55Speaker 2: Indeed, indeed, all right, our last one, which will be
- 59:58Speaker 2: revealed in full in the interview you're about to hear
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: between Chad and the winner, Jason Side. I will tease,
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: but we'll tell you that as a reminder to find
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: this winning submission and bet it yourself. Just go to
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: bet three sixty five and look under super Bowl fifty specials.
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: You will find this bet and loads more just like
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: it again bet three sixty five under super Bowl fifty specials.
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: And now I'll turn it to you.
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: Chad.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: It is time to reveal the winner of our Get
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: your prop up on Bet three sixty five's Super Bowl
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: Big Board contest. I feel like this prop. I don't
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: want to reveal it yet, but I know this prop
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: and its name is something that you can appreciate.
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: I'm hoping it's it's Egles related.
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: Then it will be Eagles related.
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: Let's bring in.
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: Let's bring in the winner of the prop contest. His
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: name is Jason Society from Claremont Lord.
- 1:01:01Speaker 7: He is a.
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: Control systems guru at Universal Studios in Orlando. Jason, congrats,
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: welcome to the show, brother.
- 1:01:11Speaker 7: Big guys, thank you. I'm happy to be here.
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: Where does this honor rank? Do you think is sort
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: of your history of awards and accomplishments.
- 1:01:21Speaker 8: Let's see, besides the birth of my daughter, in marrying
- 1:01:24Speaker 8: my wife is right behind that at number three.
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: Those are barely two things that might qualify as being
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: better than this. I do want you to reveal the
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: name of the prop and tell people what it is,
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: and then I want to get into how you thought
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: of it and all that kind of good stuff. But
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: let's reveal the name of the prop that people can
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: go bet at Bet three sixty five right now.
- 1:01:43Speaker 8: Yeah, So the prop name is I'm always Runny in Philadelphia.
- 1:01:49Speaker 8: And then the prop is for the Eagles that have
- 1:01:52Speaker 8: over two hundred and eighty.
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: Rushing yards, which would be a Super Bowl record, right
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: it will be a super record record. And right now
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: with bet three sixty five you can get that. I
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: think it's a plus sixteen hundred. You can get that
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: at bet three sixty five. Simon and always Sonny prop.
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: That might be the most apt prop we've ever had
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: for this show.
- 1:02:13Speaker 5: If life pushes you down, you gotta push back.
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: If you're dump a bunch of lemons, you gotta take
- 1:02:19Speaker 3: those limits and stuff them down somebody's throat until I
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: see yell them, especially where that's an amazing record. I
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: had no idea it was that many rushing yards. So
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: I definitely love to play sixteen to one, come one,
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: give us twenty to one. Bet better odds to you,
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: But yeah.
- 1:02:33Speaker 5: I can't.
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. We felt like that was pretty
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: good given the circumstances. Jason, how did you think of
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: the prop?
- 1:02:40Speaker 8: Well, so, a good prop really needs three things, right,
- 1:02:44Speaker 8: You need to catch your name, You need something you
- 1:02:47Speaker 8: can't really bet it's like a normal bet. And a
- 1:02:50Speaker 8: third thing, you need to have something that's you know,
- 1:02:52Speaker 8: it's probably gonna have plus odds because, as you both say,
- 1:02:55Speaker 8: the book is not your friend.
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: They are here that issue. I'm definitely gonna betting this
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: because that's the best way for the Eagles to win
- 1:03:02Speaker 3: right now is for Saque to be running. So I'll
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: be happily going to be making this bet chat, especially
- 1:03:06Speaker 3: at those odds.
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: As you and I have both said for the past
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: couple of weeks, we're on the Chiefs here. So the
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: best way to invest in the Eagles at a high
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: return with relatively low investment is a bet like this
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: because it does mean the Eagles are dominating the game. Jason,
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: do you have a betting interest in the game?
- 1:03:29Speaker 8: Have a Super Bowl ticket on the Eagles, and so
- 1:03:31Speaker 8: I will be rooting for the Eagles. One thing with this,
- 1:03:33Speaker 8: so I was looking at the Eagles box scores this year.
- 1:03:36Speaker 8: They've hit this number twice, first time in the regular
- 1:03:40Speaker 8: season against the Rams, and then they hit it again
- 1:03:42Speaker 8: in the playoffs against the Rams.
- 1:03:44Speaker 7: I'm hoping the Chiefs also can't stop sake one.
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: How long you've been betting, I've been playing.
- 1:03:49Speaker 8: Poker for a long long time, and so you know
- 1:03:53Speaker 8: a sports gambling was right right along with that.
- 1:03:57Speaker 7: So you know, since I was a kid, probably awesome.
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: We'll listen. We're thrilled you submitted it. There were great entries.
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: This was the runaway hit Matt Mitchell. You know he's
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: the arbiter of all these things and it takes a
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: lot to mate Mac Mitchell. Laugh a little bit and
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: be tickled.
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: Do you think it would kill you to say good
- 1:04:16Speaker 3: job Matt?
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: So Jason Siety, Claremont, Florida, Always running in Philadelphia plus
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: sixteen hundred. I'm Bet three sixty five right now. Thanks
