  Speaker 1: NFL Game Deview is a production of the NFL in
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Everybody, Welcome to game debut, Patrick clayl. I'm back here
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: with Greg rosens All and Cynthia Freeland here to take
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: you through the remaining Week three schedule, which spoiler alert,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Cynthia is ultimately going to win because that's what you do.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: I don't know what to say. That's very nice. I
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: appreciate you.
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: Know what. We've all been very good when we're on
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: an island and we pick our games, and we've been
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: good when we're together. So it's a team win here.
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: We're better together.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Let's start better together.
• 0:38
  Speaker 5: How good we all are.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Relatives to Cynthia again, we all had good Week two.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Cynthia and I went twelve before Greg went eleven and five,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: and so the crown remains on Cynthia Freeland. We do
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: a little thing called promptime picks occasionally sitting in these chairs.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Cynthia has been on fire in prime time, especially with
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: some late wins that I would like.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: To complain about. But we'll hear plenty of complaining on
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: this show. Let's talk some ball.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: The Rams and Eagles met up in last year's Divisional
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: with under a minute to.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: Go, La driving to take the league.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Stafford at Pookinakoa for ten yards down to the Eagles thirteen.
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: Then on third and two, Jalen Carter sacked him and
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: on fourth down Stafford.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Sailed won incomplete looking for Nakua. Eagles held on to
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: win twenty twenty two, advance in the NFC Championship. Then
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: they would go on to play in the Super Bowl.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: They would win the Super Bowl. They don't want to
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: talk about it because they say they're not defending anything
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: either way. A big time rematch Sunday at the Link,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: both teams coming off of wins, and Sean McVay is
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: actually coaching hurt here a fresh off of dealing with
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: the Planner fashion surgery.
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: So does he get rebenge.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: No, because it's a regular season the game, but he
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: gets a win because I think he's the fresher coach,
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: He's the one with new ideas. He's he's got someone
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: that's inspiring him in DeVante Adams. I really do look
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: at this Rams team and think they're catching the Eagles
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: at the right time. Like the Eagles seem a little tired.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: They have a new offensive coordinator and Kevin Patulo, whereas
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: the Rams have more cohesion. And when you love at
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: what Sean McVay has been cooking up in the lab.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: For DeVante Adams, it is like the whole offense is
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: almost built around him, especially in the red zone. Like
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford loves throwing to this guy. They're figuring out
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: what he can do well. Oh, by the way, while
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Pooka Nkua is making so many great plays too. So ultimately,
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: I think it's a time of the year that the
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Eagles aren't fully formed and the Rams they are ready.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: You've got a one point win, I've got a two
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: point win for the Los Angeles Rams, And it's probably
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: I just have to look at the gentleman that need
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: to cover DeVante Adams as well as Pooka Nakua. Not you, Quinnon,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: You're fine, mainly a Dori Jackson. Really, the guy is
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: being asked to play the slay role. He's getting a
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: lot of actions. Say this is looking at the all
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: twenty two on this, it feels like that was more
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: of a red blanketship situation that Quinnya was trying to
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: make up for either way, giving up six catches for
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: one hundred and six yards when targeted in coverage was
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: a Dori Jackson against Ceedee Lamb.
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: And the Dallas Cowboys.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: The the ask is maybe a little bit less difficult
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: against the Kansas City Chiefs. These Los Angeles Rams are
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: decidedly not the Kansas City Chiefs. I think it's tough.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to take the Rams.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: In this one city.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Are you guys kidding?
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: No, we're not.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: We're gonna give you, sup last week's home favorites against
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: a team that they beat twice, including once last year,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: destroying them. Just take it, take it away.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, first of all, I had no idea
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: that whatever twenty five twenty Eagles, Eagles fans, please, you
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: can tell them that they're wrong. Yeah, let us know,
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: we all know that the Eagles. No, just kidding, listen,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: it's it's an interesting it's an interesting matchup, for sure.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: I do think that one thing needs to change for
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: these Eagles to absolutely secure this better than expected win
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: per my model. And what is that intermediate passing? Let's
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: look at the total? Oh wait a minute, this is
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: from last year. What do you telling you? Oh, he's
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: thrown exactly zero passes between ten and nineteen are yards
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: lad he is bad done none.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: They're saving them all for the Rams.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: An you think that's a reason for them they're going
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: to win the game.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: I think that. What I'm telling you is they've been
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: doing it despite having kind of the best things with
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: because that's where a J. Brown lives, That's where a J.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Brown operates from. I don't think Kevin Petula you can.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I know Eagles fans can. They're very spirited fans, and
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: maybe they're asking a lot of their new OC. But
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: he even sees that as well. So some of these
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: things are really going to help them move forward in
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: a way where now they're they're kind of getting the
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: weirds out, the get the they will be the fresh
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: ones now, according to Greg's model, is about freshness these days.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: So yeah, we're gonna keep it fresher. Looking forward to
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: what could be a potential NFC Championship.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: Game, Time for Who's Eating Good?
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Presented by Applebee's Oh Yeah, the guy we didn't mention
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley.
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: He lit up the Rams last season. He actually averaged
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: eight point eight.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Yards per carrie against the Los Angeles Rams a season ago,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: so more or less than ten times.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: That eighty eight rushing yards on Sunday.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Something I's projected from. It was so hard to talk
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: about the passing game just then without mentioning Saquon Barkley.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: But I did it because I was saving it for here.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Why because he's averaging over five yards per rush to
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: the outside, just about five to the inside, which means
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: he's affected from everywhere. Guys, it's these deep runs. They
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: don't have an answer for it. Saquon Barkley at least
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: at least ninety yards ninety nine. And I have a
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: conservative model.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: All right, Eagles fans hoping Saquon gets rolling in this one.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Speaking of rolling after a disappointing loss in Week one,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Jared Goff and the Lions had the offense humming last week.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: Worth and goal for the Lions from the four golf takes,
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: the snap fakes, the give rolls right, got a man
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: wide open. I'm and ross Saint Brown one two three
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: times today touchdown Detroit Lyons Gentlemen.
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: Jared Goff has completed his last sixteen passes.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: Dan Campbell, what's this team gonna look? There's certain people
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: that you just can't bet against. Dan Campbell being one
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: Jared Goff being the other. Just his ability to always
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: consistently bounce back and very admirable.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: But that was the fifth of Jared Goff's five touchdowns.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: He would jumping the stands after that. The Lion's heading
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: to Baltimore to take on Lamar and the Ravens on
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Monday Night Football, which was actually Greg Rosenball's Super Bowl prediction.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, so what happens to it, Greg, Well, the same
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: thing that's gonna happen in the super Bowl. The Ravens
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: are gonna win. It's gonna be by more than in
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. I know, I'm giving you a lot
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: of picks here thirty eight to thirty one, because I
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: ultimately don't think this Lion's defense is up for it
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: because the Ravens passing attack is so dynamic right now
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: because Zay Flowers has gone to another level. He is
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: top five in the NFL in yards per team target,
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: which I didn't even know was a stat, but it
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: means he's getting a huge target share, top five in
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: that as well in terms of PFFS metrics, top five
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: receiver there. If you're into fantasy, like Cynthia and Patrick
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: and most of America, top five there, and so you're
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: also seeing I'm not really as into it anymore.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: I kind of heard that, wah.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: The biggest problem the Ravens have is it's like finding
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: enough targets for all of these players. DeAndre Hopkins has
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: three incredible catches this season and he's only been on
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: the field for about twenty eight snaps. So you get
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: Isaiah likely back hopefully this week, and I think they
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: spread the ball around. Ultimately, it's the Lions defense that
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I'm picking against.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got the Ravens as well, not as big
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: of a score as Greg does.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Twenty nine to twenty six.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: A rare situation where facing the Lions might lead to
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: better rushing outcomes than the previous week because the Lions
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: are statistically the best rush defense in the NFL since
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty three.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: But there is some context there.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: When your team scoring thirty five forty fifty two points,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: sometimes there's not.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: As many opportunities to run the ball.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: I think the Ravens defense makes place and Derek Henry
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: is able to get enough yardage to keep Gibbs, Montgomery,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Amon ra Jared Goff. I don't think they're scoring fifty two,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: but famous last words. But maybe the Ravens score fifty three,
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: since you who knows, I.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Don't know fifty three. I have fifty two points for
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: the whole game. Oh okay, twenty eight to twenty four
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: in favor of baalt more in this one, even though
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: it breaks my little lion heart, the model, says Baltimore.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: So I pick it. Why because in order to beat
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: the Ravens you have to be a little bit more
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: multiple with your quarterback. Let's look at Jared Goff rushing.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: It happened last week. Are you ready for it? Oh?
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: Here we go. Oh he's looking for the past. Nope,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: he's got to take it into there he is. Please,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, come on, that was pretty much it. We'd
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: have to put it on loop.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Oh, here we go.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: We're watching it again because.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: That's a successful run in access. But here, here's the point.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: If you're going to be really multiple, if you're going
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to Josh Allen this thing against the Ravens defense, you
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: have to have those exposive plays in the run game
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: and the exposed to plays in the past game. They
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: got the pass down. Now, let's see if they can
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: figure out how to be a little bit more multiple.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Using the running backs against this defense.
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Just I mean, we.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Saw the evidence Jared could do it himself football, he
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: can do it. It's time for the read, presented by Microsoft
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: co Pilot. Microsoft co Pilot, your AI companion for NFL
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Game Day and every day Big A.
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: I see West matchup Sunday in La.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: So we ask Copilot one, are the top three matchups
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: to watch in Broncos Chargers co pilot says the following
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert against the Broncos defense, bo Nicks against the
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Chargers secondary, and a battle in the trenches the Chargers
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: O line versus the Broncos front seven. Thanks Coppilo, let's
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: dive into this matchup. The Chargers looking for their first
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: three and zero start since two thousand and two.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: They get it.
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: Cynthia, when you said the read, I was worried that
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: you were reading the thing like ron Burgundy, because the
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: reader is anyway, I am Copilot. I have Denver actually
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: winning this game twenty three to twenty two.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: Why It's because of the blitz. Obviously, Denver blitz is
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: the most often, it's over fifty one percent of the time.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: But here's the thing. They do run first down a lot.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: They don't necessarily do it on third down as often.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: What I'm saying is is these early down situations leads
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: to more predictable third down situations, which makes it harder
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: to complete passes. They're also good at stopping the runs,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: something that we know Jim Harborough at least wants to do,
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: even though they're not really doing it as much or
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: as successfully as he wants to do it. So I'm
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: looking at this defense and there's a certain guy missing
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: for the Chargers defense that just tip the scales ever
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: so slightly in favor of the Broncos.
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: Well, thank you so much.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Say that's certain guy is the player that I am
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: making the decision, it's Khalil Meck. I have the Broncos
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: winning because the Chargers are going to need to overcome
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: the next month or so without Khalil Mack dealing with
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: that arm injury, and I think a Bronco makes his
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: return and that Bronco is running. Bow Nicks the two
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: opportunities last year, of course in the division to play
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Chargers. In the first one, he ever's
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: over ten yards of carry and then it's like, Okay,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: we gotta stop bow from running. No eight yards of
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: carry in the second game. We haven't seen other than
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: this play, which looked really good.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: Against the Dapolis Colts. A lot of bow running this season.
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: I think Bo takes.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Advantage of the lack of Mac and runs his way
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: to a win against the Charge.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Wow, more like Bo picks this year. You know what
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. Look and here for Herbo. You know we're
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: gonna pick against them at home, right across the street,
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: Sofi Stadium. I'm not going to do the Chargers win
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: this game twenty four to twenty one. Let's just screg
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: it up. Just s grag nation. We're winning two out
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: of three. Just Greg picks this year, and it's because
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: Justin Herbert is hooping'. That's why they're gonna win this game.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Like sometimes you watch him, he's just like a little robotic, Like,
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: let's show a little pizzaz Justin Herbert in previous years,
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: what's he doing this year? It's hoopin'. It's threes, hits
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: and layups. Riz No, I'm not calling it that. It's
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: big throws down the field, deep shots. Those are the
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: threes and then the layups. That's him on the ground
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: taking the scramble opportunities that haven't been there in the past,
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: scrambling way more than he ever has before, in his
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: average depth of target nine point nine yards, way deeper
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: than ever before. He's got the best group of weapons
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: around him. I like the pass protection. I like him
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: at home with the Chargers, faithful rooting him on.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Okay right, Hash forty six win the game, good operation
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: forty six.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: The kick wins the game. Better, better, better, better, better,
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: extra better.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Cowboys wins in overtime forty to thirty seven. An't you
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: glad you played attention to the skin.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: On a game that was in Week two Tome per
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Seas the Season presented by Caesars Sportsbook. As we get
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: a look at the first touchdown score odds between the
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Bears and the Cowboys, Devonte Williams and deandreos Spliff leading
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: us off, then CD Lamb and Romo dunes Ay George
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: Pickens makes his way.
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: Into the top five.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Let's talk some more about this matchup as the Dallas
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: is coming off that dramatic overtime win against the Giants
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: while the Bears are coming off of stomping by Cynthia's
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Lyons who wins the game?
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: Greg This was a tough one for me. I ultimately
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: went with the Cowboys forty to thirty seven. Everybody in
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: the pool and fantasy league points points points, but ultimately
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: I gotta go with the most fun quarterback in the
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: league to watch right now. Dak Prescott might be the
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: best quarterback in the league right now. I had to
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: just create a beast spoke collection of plays that I
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: personally selected because I wanted everyone at home to have
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: all the fun that I'm having watching this man absolutely cook.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: So many of these throws were into absolute tight windows
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: against the New York Giants, and I know that game
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: made Brian Dabel sick, it made Giants fans sick. But
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: some of these throws too, were just too good. That
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: one to take the lead late in the game to
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: George Pickens, and then another one to Pickens under fire
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: to win it in overtime. He's anticipating so well. The
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: arm is perfect, like the accuracy. He might be the
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: best quarterback in the league through two weeks.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, have I thought you were gonna be on
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: the other I didn't know what I thought. Anyways, I
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: have Dallas winning this one two points, twenty five to
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: twenty three. The run. I said it ahead of the season.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: Where are the Cowboys going to get the run game? Answer?
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Javonte Williams. He's the guy that was not someone that
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: Broncos wanted.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: To keep, so nice way to put it, they.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Didn't want to keep him. So now he's in Dallas
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: and what's he doing just being an incredibly efficient and
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: effective rusher, which is helping Dak Prescott be able to
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: be in this situation, to have just a titch more
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: time to be able to handle some of those pressures
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: and throws that are coming, you know, those deep throws
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: that you talked about. But I'm watching these runs and
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's great, and I was wrong. I did
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: not think it was going to go this well, I'm complete.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: I was completely wrong about this. This is what we
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: have to do. You have to take our Mia Kulpa here. Yeah,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: I was very wrong about the Dallas Cowboys ability to
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: run the football. With Javonte Williams looking at him inside outside,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: he's just it's great. Congratulations Davante, Javontae, It's great.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: He's a big fan of the show.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Davonte, except for that apology.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, my friend, you know, listen, Sorry.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: I've got a little bit wider margin than you, but
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: we are all on the Dallas. Greg's got seventy seven
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: points though, so that's a little different.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: I got twenty five twenty two.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: The Bears defense still adjusting to a new coordinator, and
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: what a back to back situation when you're still adjusting
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: to go from playing Jared Goff to playing Dak Prescott.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry to the Bears fans lodging, especially one in particular.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: It was up in our control room right now.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Jared Goff and the Lions carved up this defense where
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: they're playing cloud coverage on thirty four percent of their dropbacks.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: And yeah, Dak Prescott still one of the best quarterbacks.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: You go all the way back to twenty eighteen against
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: zone coverages, and that's with the injuries in the secondary.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: We saw the trouble that the Eagles had playing against Dallas,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: and man, there's just a tough way to look at
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: the Bears winning this game. But there's always there's always
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: a chance, as Greg says, that the Bears are gonna
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: score thirty seven points.
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: Also, Greg was.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Fresh off watching the game against the Giants and so
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: like he's thinking the Cowboys defense.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: Is I mean, yeah, Arry vulnerable. The Cowboys defense is terrible.
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: This that's why there's gonna be seventy seven points if
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: the Matt Eberflus revenge game and the Revenges you're not
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: employing Matt Aberflus. The Bears are pumped about this.

  Speaker 4: Ella Patriots can't believe.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Run Mike Run.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: The Patriots coming off their first win of the season.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Now they've got Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers what takes place, Cynthia.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at it. It says the Steelers are favored. Ye
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: wrong team favored. I Patriots winning this one twenty three
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: to twenty two. At home. I'm looking at Drake May
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: and I'm thinking he kind of reminds me of, you know,
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: the innocence of like, you know, my dog right, Like
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: he doesn't know what to be afraid of anything, he
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: doesn't know what's coming for him. Sometimes he's throwing these
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: bull there's pressure coming in, not in this particular play,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: but in general, he's just looking he's having fun. He's
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I love my dogs. They're crazy, They're they're innocent, and
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: they don't even know what to be afraid. They're not
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: even afraid of cars. Maybe it should be, but ultimately
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: that's the kind of you know, reckless abandon he's playing with.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: But it's paying off, and he's really starting to use
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: his legs and smart ways. The run game's coming together.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: I think this is a Trevion Henderson breakout game. I'm
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: looking at this opportunity and the marriage between he and
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: Josh McDaniels as the clay caller that seems to be
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: going well. So Josh m aod it's a good fit.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I thought McDaniel's had a great game last week. I
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: love the comparison. I think if you lined up all
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: thirty two starting quarterbacks, Drake may is the most dog
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: like like.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: He just feels comm It just feels right complement. I like, like,
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: I'm crazy about my dog, So it's a huge compliment.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: I agree. Milton Williams on the other end, he's just
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: a grown man. He was the number one player on
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: my free agency list a year ago and the Patriots
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: ended up picking him up, and through two weeks he
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: has the highest pressure rate, second highest PRESSU rate among
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: all defensive tackles. He called game on the Dolphins last week,
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: but he's been creating consistent pressure in both games, and
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers has not dealt well with pressure this year.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: For a guy who doesn't want to get hit a lot,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers sure is getting hit a lot. The offensive
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: line is not playing well, and Milton Williams isn't the
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: only guy. Harold Landry is playing really well. Kristin Barmore
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: is actually fifth among all defensive tackles in pressure rate.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: So the Patriots aren't a good defense, but they are
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: good up front, and I think they're gonna get a
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: lot of pressure on Aaron Rodgers.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: Great old man names on that team too, Harold, Harold Milton, Milton,
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Christian old man names.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: Love it, great young man names like Gordy and Clyde.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: I celebrate Cynthia's dogs as well. So let's get some
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: dogs barking, because I'm gonna take a straight un. I
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: will take the Pittsburgh Steelers. I don't know exactly have
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: either of these two teams uh playing in the Super Bowl,
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: but I've got the Steelers by one. Let's discuss last week,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: because some things took place last week for the New
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: England Patriots. They got out gained by the Finns. The
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Finns just had a punt return touchdown. So Antonio Gibson
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: and Mike Rabel, by the way, go running down the sideline.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: That's a big point.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill had caught every pass thrown his way, and
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Tua was missing him. Threw a bad pick Devon h Chan.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: This this was like a go ahead touchdown.
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: This is it.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: On the clock for Drake May. He was gonna come
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: right back.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: But the Von h Chan stepped out.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: About my point is a lot of things had to
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: happen for the Patriots to win that game, and I
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: have to pick somebody full disclosure, not exactly favorite situations
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: coming here, but I will take the Pittsburgh Steelers to
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: win this game still to come. The Kansas City Chiefs
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: can't keep losing right oh in two. They have as
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: many losses this season as.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: They did in all of last year. Will they turn
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: things around Sunday against the Giants? Maybe? Or maybe not?

  Speaker 2: Sunday Night at MetLife Case is zero to two for

  Speaker 2: the first time in the entire Patrick Mahomes Era.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Happy Birthday to Patrick. Earlier this week.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: He rust and the g Man put up a fight
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: last week in Dallas, but as Greg pointed out he
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: was failed by the entire apparatus.
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: So what happens for Russ? Does he bounce back? Do
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: they do it for Russ, Cynthia.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: For Russ or for Patrick?
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: Because well, the Chiefs will be doing it.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: I think the Chiefs will be doing it for Okay,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: So Kansas City twenty five to eighteen in this matchup,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: I'm never going to bet against fifteen. And when I'm
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: looking at fifteen and what he's doing on the ground,
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: he's on pace for a thousand yards. I don't think
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: that happens, but it's still fun to say. But what
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: I am really really interested in is the number of
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: explosive runs that he's had. Of the team's nine, he
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: has seven of them. That's a ridiculous amount. He's also
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: throwing deep again, what more do you want from this man?
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: Pick it up everyone else. You can't let Patrick Mahomes
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: and this situation not be turned around, right, you know?
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: I think we have an opportunity here to have a
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: very low probability thing happen, which is a team that
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: starts zero and to end up winning their division. Still,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: So let's see if they start by notching that first
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: win this week that's what the model says.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: I agree, since the ir Kansas City getting their first
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: win twenty four to seventeen, as the Giants offense kind
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: of comes back to earth a bit. Can't afford to
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: do that when the defense is struggling, as Greg pointed out,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: and also what the run game is doing for the
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: New York Giants, because let's look at this Chiefs rush defense. Yes,
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: it's traditionally good. Yes, they have slowed folks down. The
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: running backs for the New York Giants have ninety three.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: Yards this season.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Back there are twenty running backs in the NFL because
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: I have to sort the list because Josh Allen has
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: more rushing yards than the New York Giants running backs.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: But there's twenty single players past Mahomes, yes, that have
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: out rushed the Giants running back room. It's a struggle,
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: they play it. It's a good defense. Hey, good luck, Russ.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: Maybe the dark conversation will fire up again, Greg, Right.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: Like Brian Dabel who was so mad at the end
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: of that game because Russell Wilson had one of the
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: best games of his career and they still didn't win.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: So I really think this Giants defense is one of
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: the most poorly coached units in the league, and they're
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: gonna make the Chiefs offense look like the old Chiefs.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: Four to fourteen is my game and is my result.
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: And I'm looking at this Giants defense and they're actually
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: blitzing a lot like the sum of the parts that
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: it's just not adding up, Like Abdul Carter actually is
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: playing well, Keavon Thibodeau and Dexter Lawrence are playing well.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Brian Burns is playing well, and yet on the back end,
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: especially at the linebacker position but also at cornerback, there's
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: just a lot of confusion. It's a it's a strange
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: mix of like aggressive but not very disciplined, and ultimately
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: I think that costs him this week.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Let's take a look at some player props for this
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: game on Sunday Night Football. Patrick Mahomes two hundred and
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: thirty four and a half passing yards, Russell Wilson one
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: and a half passing touchdowns, Malik Nighbors seventy eight and
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: a half receiving yards, four and a half receptions for
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey and ten and a half carries well for
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Isaiah to check out time for two minute drill presented
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: by the Wells Fargo Active Cash credit card. Let's make
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: some quick picks here on game debut started with the
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Falcons of Panthers Atlanta coming off a big win all
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Sudday night football against the Vikings.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: What do they do to follow that up?
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: So do they also win again this week? I have
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: twenty five to twenty and maybe a bit more moderate
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: than both of you. But I'm looking at this defense
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: and guess what what's up? They can bring the heat.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: The pressure posential actually went way up. I am worried
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: that no Aj Terrell could be a problem. However, I'm
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: looking at this front specifically and saying congratulations, the draft
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: set strategy and the free agent strategy paid off. You
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: can bring the heat, and we know we've seen some
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: not so great results from Bryce Young when he's been
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: under pressure, which he's been under a ton of it
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: and against the plots.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: All right, All on the Falcons there, Let's go to
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: the Packers with the Browns. Greg any chance that Cleveland
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: shocks the world.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: There's always a chance the NFL, but I don't predict
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: it happening. In fact, I predict the Browns lose twenty
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: to five. There's only one way you can get to
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: five points. You guys can figure it out. Let's talk
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: about the Packers offense, because it's much more interesting to
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: me when they're on the field. To me, it's the
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: biggest mismatch of the weekend when the pack defenses on
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: the field this week. Really been impressed with the maturity
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: that Jordan Love is showing. You don't think of him
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: as a veteran quarterback, but man, he's been in the
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: system with Matt Lafleur for a long time, and I
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: saw on the opening drive last week him do a
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: bunch of check with me's which in a short week
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: installing all of that and everyone being on the same page,
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: it really shows that these receivers, while they're young in
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: the offensive, Lineman young, Jordan Love young, they've all been
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: together for a while. I think you see that continuity.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: They play like a veteran team looking.
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: Forward to that.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: We're all on the Green Bay Packers, the Bengals and
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: the Vikings, which was a controversial pick matchup in this studio,
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: a battle of backups between Jake Browning and Carson Wentz.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: I have Minnesota winning twenty six to seventeen. We all
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: ultimately have the Minnesota fighter Greg Well.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: I switch with the prices back and forth, and now
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: I'm back to the Vico who wants to be on
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: an island with Jake Browning other than his girlfriend.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: I'd like to talk about the other quarterback in this one.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Greg loves love, by the way, and that's Carson Wentz,
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: who's seen the formula. It's out there, it's available. If
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: you throw the ball to Justin Jefferson, operate Kevin O'Connell's offense,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: then you can win fifty five million dollars guaranteed.
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: Sam Targin did a season and go.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: As we look at Justin Jefferson, I think he will
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: have a huge day. Looking forward to seeing what he
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: can do in this one. And yeah, Jamar Chase two.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: It's rough for the viewers at home that we missed
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: out on a chance to see Joe Burrow and Jamar
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Chase play against the old college teammates. It's one of
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: the frustrating things about football. We'll get back to more
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: of the fun stuff when we come back. Because Sunday
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Funday is upon us. We are making our predictions for
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: who's gonna crush the stat sheet this weekend plus more
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: game picks.
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: Stick around, you're watching game debut.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Back on game debut time for Sunday Funday, Let's look
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: at the top games of the week as we've got
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: the Rams, Greg and I going with the Rams giving.
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: Cynthia, Yeah, sure about that.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you let me be on an island with the Eagles.
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: Leave it that way.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: We let you be on an island with the Vikings
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: last week and that turned out pretty good for us.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: That's the one that I've gotten wrong.
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: Literally, it's the only game that I've gotten right that
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: you've gotten rung all year.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: And we're and we're all on the Baltimore Ravens for
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Monday Night football.
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: I got so excited. I just wanted to get to
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: Sunday Funday. But those are the games of the week
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: that we're looking forward to. We're reminding you what we picked.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: But let's predict some stat leaders for the best day
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: of the week. Cynthia, who will be the top passer on.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Sunday Sunday Sunday Sunday Sunday Sunday Sunday Sunday. Jake Browning?
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: Jake Browning?
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: What, yes, did you didn't even pick him to win.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: That actually actually checks out if you think about it, right,
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: game script right, throwing quite a bit of yards. I
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: think it's gonna be a little messy. It's gonna be
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: a little rough, which means there's gonna be a lot
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: more passing hours. We've seen Jake Browning be against the blitz.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: When he's not blitzed, that's when trouble happens. So if
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: you're listening to me, and we know you're listening to me,
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: Brian Flores, this is going to be a chance for
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: you to blitz. I think that's gonna be. I didn't
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: say he's gonna have no interceptions. I just said the
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: most passing.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: Your BC friend, Brian Flora.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: That's right. He was an orientation leader.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: The Cynthia Freeland tree is extensive and expansive.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: There's a lot there.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: We'll mock up a graphic one day. Let's go to
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: top rusher. Who will that be?
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: My tree is like a stump. It it just doesn't
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: even exist. But I was once in fantasy football, and
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: I can imagine right now there's no one I would
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: rather have this week than John Robinson going up against
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: the Carolina Panthers. When this question was posed to me,
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: I thought, who is playing against the Carolina Panthers this week?
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: That'll be my Chase. Oh, it just happens to be
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: the best running back in the league who gets better
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: every single year. Every single week, he is actually topping
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: his previous totals in basically everything touches yardage, mistackle rate,
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: and it feels like it could be even more on
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: the ground. I know a lot of his production has
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: been through the air. For fantasy, you don't care, but
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: for this question, you want it on the ground. In Carolina,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: despite getting Derek brownback, has not solved their rushing defense
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: this year.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it helps when the other team decides to not
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: run the ball like the Arizona Cardinals did last week.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: I'll take the last one of the most receiving yards
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: On Sunday, I think it will be Ceedee Lamb against Chicago.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: Dak and Ceedy really picking up right where they left
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: off a couple of years ago, especially if you want
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: to talk in the fantasy world with CD was an
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: incredible fantasy football player, ultimately number one pick consensus the
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: season after that, and the Bears dealing with that injury
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: for Johnson, whether they playing man or zone, it's not
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: looking like it's going to be a fun Sunday for
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: Dennis Allen's squad. The highest over unders for Week three
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: according to our friends at Caesars Sportsbook, the Lions and
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: the Ravens taking the title at fifty three, Cowboys Bears
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: at fifty and a half.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: Us a little touch.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Underwhear where Greg had the number of the Broncos and.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: The Jargons seven. Who's do one of those alternate lines
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: they like sending you giants.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: As we get to over under here on game deview,
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: we have acquired the fingers that indicate will go green.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Green is on Greg's left hand, the red on his
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: right hand.
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: There's he's switching them.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Now let's say I'm colorblind. This is always kind of
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: not really supportive of the colorblind community, but we'll do it.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll try to keep those straight. We'll start with
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: the Texans and the Jags. The point total is forty four,
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: and I am looking at two very very good defenses.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: As much as I love points, I will have to
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: take the under here just just because I'm seeing.
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: A mirror image.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: When you talk about guys that can bring pressure off
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: the edge, both of these teams have that and I
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: see points being lower.
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: By the way, what are the hardest games to pick
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: of the week? I took the Texans to win this game.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: I don't feel great about it. I do feel great
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: about this number being low. I love what I've seen
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: out of the Texans defense this season, and ultimately, I
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: think the Jaguars, even though they're running the ball well.
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: That makes it a low scoring script.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: Yep, I'm with you, low scoring script, and I like
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: the defense for the Texans. Somehow the Texans are now
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: not favorites and whatever that Texans defense good?
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: All right, let's stay in the AFC South Colts and Titans.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: The over under is forty three.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: And a half and I have a Titans win and
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: I'm also gonna take the over here because I think
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: the Colts will get points.
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: But a fun.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans offense moves the ball a little bit better
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: and they get a win.
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: Heres.
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't feel like this was a game in
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: the Survivor, you know, picks like, I don't feel great
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: about the Colts, but I do like this number to
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: go over because I don't think that the Indianapolis Colts
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: defense right now is fully formed. Little short in the
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: secondary and definitely not a great pass rush. So I
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: think both teams get their points in this game.
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: We're just all in Subpatako, we're all matching. I think that.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Do I think that Indianapolis is gonna have some regression? Yes?
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: But do I think it's gonna be more than the
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: number here?
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: No?
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll see if we can keep our cohesion
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: street going. The Cardinals and forty nine Ers both teams
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: too and zero. The point total is forty six points,
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: and I think if I were gonna want that, I
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: would need to know for sure that Brock Purty is
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: gonna play. I am going to take the under here,
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: but I do have the Arizona Cardinals getting a win
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: again because I'm not sure that Brock party.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: Is not going well. Who am I to disagree with
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: a man wearing an Arnold Schwarzenegger shirt. I mean, it's
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: just intimidating to be next to that guy. I think
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: it's a low scoring game. I've been really impressed with
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: the forty nine Ers defense so far this season. Robert
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: Sala has these guys playing fast. He's been a little
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: more creative than in the past in terms of his blitzes.
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: And disguises, and then de Winters in Drake Greenlott rather
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: Fred Warner looked to me like the two best linebackers
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: in terms of a tandem in the entire league. I
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: like all that.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: I guess we're all the same here. I have forty
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: five points in this matchup. I'm going to talk about
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: the Cardinals defense being good at stopping the run, which
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: is something interesting. If you're a Christian McCaffrey fantasy owner,
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: they'll probably gain his yard through the air, not necessarily
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: on the ground. And by fantasy, I mean you know
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: if you care about the yards in the air not
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: the ground.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there could be a different Again, we're all in
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: lockstep and over under like a hive mind, kind of
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: like Skynet or cybernetic or The NFL International Games were
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: NFL Network on September twenty eighth, six games, four cities, Dublin, London, Berlin,
• 33:42

• 33:47

  Speaker 4: NFL network.

  Speaker 5: He's on the way coming up.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Is this the week that Ashton GenZ finally breaks out?
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: Fantasy Man? Just seriously hope so including the one talker.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: Right now we're talking player props for Genti and the
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: rest of the rookie class. Right after this quick break,
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: you're watching game debut.
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: Hollard in the backfield, war takes the snap, drifts back.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: He has plenty of time.
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: Now he's gonna roll back to the right pack past
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: the thirty twenty.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: Five throws across his body to the back Byeline.
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: Hey s the fuck it's cut is a titan sut
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: down alick I Olfanner?
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: How are you kidding me? What a throw by cam Ward?
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Oh fun moment from cam Ward. Here are the rookie
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: leaders through week two. Cam's got no more passing yards
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: than any other rookie. Jacorey Krosski or Bill Merritt has ninety.
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: Nine rushing yards.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Cet Ronald mcwillan with one hundred and sixty eight receiving yards,
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: and Tyler Warren with one hundred and fifty five receiving
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: yards leading the way for tight ends. He's also carrying
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: the ball. I'm sure he's gonna throw the ball at
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: some point, maybe snapping. As we love these rookies a
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: ton for rookie watch, Let's talk some props for these youngsters.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Greg Well cam Ward have more or less than one
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: hundred and ninety eight passing yards on se I.
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: Mean, what kind of man would I be to come
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: out here and say cam Ward is going to struggle
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: against the Colts defense. That's no fun. We're going over
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: He gets better each and every week and you see
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: the highlight plays, but last week I thought the decision
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: making was good. You might say, like you shouldn't be
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: trying some of these throws, but when you got an
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: arm like cam Ward, you should try him because he's
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: pulling him off. Some of the high leverage throws like
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: this are just so much fun to watch. I think
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: they're gonna be in a game script a lot this
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: season where they're needing to throw the ball a lot,
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: and so cam Ward against this Colts defense, which I'm
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: not quite trusting I think goes over one ninety eight
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: and a half.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: Especially for Sharvarius Ward, isn't there that could make a
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: big difference for the Colts defense. I'm really excited to
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: watch Cameron. I'm really proud of my pick if him
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: is her offensive rookie year ahead of the season. Why
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: because some of the specific numbers, like the depth of
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: target numbers, et cetera, they haven't popped off yet. But
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: the signals are there, so some of the data's noisy.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: He's going to get better every single game. If his
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: O line could just help him out a little bit,
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: a little bit there, that would be helpful. He's getting
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: pressured the third most often. But I think listen, the
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: math says that it's going to be less, but that's
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: because I have fewer total drives in this one because
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: a lot of rushing on both sides of the ball.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: It's not a questioning anyone's manhood here.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: We're just quite saying it's no fun. It's no fun
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: to go against came board.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, probably no fun for ashing gentle to look at
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: his phone right now. The signals and the data are
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: probably very noisy, as fantasy managers are, like, ah.
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: Try harder.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: He's at a slow start over or under fifty five
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: rushing yards against the commander.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: See.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: I think we see a little bit of a difference
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: in this one. Each week we see a little bit better.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: Now you're seeing him get stuffed a ton. He's been
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: given exactly point one yards before contact by his O line.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: Not great. That's really hard to do. So I think
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: what happens is Chip Kelly goes back to the drawing
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: board here and says, all right, we're gonna run out
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: of twelve. We're gonna run more often, and in this defense,
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: that's something you could you could potentially do. So let's
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: just say. I think it's gonna that the number has
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: come down enough where I think Genti is actually going
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: to surpass that number. But I don't think it's gonna
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: be something that you know, you've drafted him top eight
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: in your fantasy league. Maybe he's not gonna be like
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: running back three or four, whatever it is. You know
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: it's it's gonna be. It's gonna take a minute to
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: get there.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Another highly drafted rookie, Travis Hunter. I'll take this one
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: more or less than thirty six receiving ards against the Texans.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: I will take the under. It pains me to say
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: it a little bit, but I do have an out.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: I did take the under. We all took the under
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: off of the score in this game. The Jags have
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: realized that Travis Hunter is one of their best cornerbacks.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: He just he has to play defense and understandably wants
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: to play both ways, but he.
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: Got to stop people.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: And he's got a rough defensive pass interference call pass
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: interference call against the Cincinnati Bengals. I think he plays
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: defense very well, a little bit offense. I'm gonna take
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: Downder in terms of thirty six and.
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: A half receiving him Tom for quick picks.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: Here on game debut. Let's start with the Raiders and Commanders,
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: both squads looking to bounce back from losses last week.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: Who bounces back the best something.
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: The best bouncerbacker is Washington twenty six to twenty a
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: six point win in this matchup. One of the things
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: that I like is a scary Terry touchdown. Why because
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel's been getting all of the targets. He says,
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: seven receptions for the first time in a really long time.
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: So in both games, by the way, so I think
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: when they're zigging, he's gonna zag and Terry McLaurin touchdown.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: It's maybe not. You know, it's a good value too,
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: if you know what I mean.
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of upside there the Jets in the Bucks.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: We zigged last week. Greg decided to zag and take
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: the Jets. Tarrod Taylor gets to start for Gangreen No justin.
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: Fields two weeks in a row. Greg, you're gonna take
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: the Jets.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: Yes, I am actual. Look, my pick of the Jets
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: against the Bills last week was one of the worst
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: in this show's history. And when you fail that spectacularly,
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: you have to own it, and then you have to
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: double down. Let me tell you something about dollar cost averaging.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: Now you're buying the Jets when it's really low. Seven
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: point underdogs against a Bucks offensive line that lost Cody
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: Mack for the season. Luke Gettikey their right tackle, not
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: healthy at left tackle. If you look at the numbers,
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: the Bucks are about nineteenth overall and efficiency. They've gotten
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: a little lucky to win these games. I think Tyrod
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: Taylor is made for this moment, and they go out
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: there and they make me smart, or at least make
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: me look smart.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: I love a good finance term, you know that. But
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: sun cost fallacy here is starting to come to mind,
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: because sometimes we shouldn't consider our past mistakes when looking
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: at forward anticipation of other results.
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: Right I believe this team is better than they've shown
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: that it's going to be the week one. Tampa's coming
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: down after a primetime It's a short week, come on.
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: I think that the very least will guarantee that we
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: will hear the thing that Greg just said, no matter
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: what happens this week ye the Saints in the Seahawks
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: Spencer Rattler versus Sam Darnold. I think Seattle wins this one,
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: but not by a whole lot twenty six to twenty two.
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: The pass defense, though, is.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Legit the number one pressure rate in all of football.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: Forty nine plus percent of dropbacks they get pressure. Do
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: you know how annoy it will be to try to
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: do anything in the world but somebody is bothering you
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: almost fifty percent of the time.
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: Now ratchet that up to one of the.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: More difficult things to do, which is complete passes. In
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: the National Football we work with Craig ah I was
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: I set him up thing, just kidding.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: It's you imagine living with me? Okay, I'll love here
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: and again love your wife.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: The Seattle Seahawks have shown a lot offensively, especially improvement
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: the second half. As we talked about Greg's personal life,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, We're all aboard mem Us away Saints fans
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: Sunday Sunday Sunday at nine am Eastern Time, joined Rich Eisen,
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: Kurt Warner, Steve Mary, Uchie, Centia Freelan, and the whole

  Speaker 2: Good Game Day Morning.
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: Crew as they get you ready for kickoff.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Kurt Warner goes one on one with Jordan Love plus
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: the keys for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs to avoid
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: a giant's upset.
• 41:12
  Speaker 5: All that and more Sunday at nine a m.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: Eastern Time to write this down here on Game debut,
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: as we get to some prop predictions for Week three
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: and batting leadoff is Greg Rows.
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no Kashawan Booty this week. Other way I think
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: they'll do well. I'm gonna go with my MVP front
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: runner after two weeks. It's a little early, but it's
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: Justin Herber and this is the best write this down
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: I've had so far this year. They are basing this
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: number off of a previous Justin Herbert that doesn't exist anymore.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: Over twenty one and a half rushing yards. He is
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: looking to scramble when he gets pressured, and the Broncos
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: will apply a lot of pressure. He's had a couple
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: of long runs in each game. He's gone way over
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: this number in each game. I feel comfortable that Justin
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: Herbert is a different man. He's more swaggy, he's more
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: aggressive on the ground.
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: She didn't want a dollar cost average kish on booty down.
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: I mean I would, I would, all.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: Right, mine, I'm gonna keep it pretty simple here, and
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: it's that Justin Jefferson scores a touchdown. You actually get
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: good value on this situation. I know it's Carson Wentz,
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: and I know that it's his six team in six
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: different years. Maybe he's like the opposite of Mac Jones
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: with what the love affair you had last week. But
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at this and I'm thinking end zone for
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: a guy who's great against press coverage, and that's what
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: he's gonna face.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: I have an apology for everybody for mine from last week.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Because I Saidjoe Flacko was gonna throw for two fifty.
• 42:31
  Speaker 5: I didn't think he's gonna get benched because it's bloss.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: So I'm gonna take somebody who will not be bitch.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: Vjon Robinson will have over twenty five and a half
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: receiving yards against the Panthers, he has hit that once
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: out of the two games that he's played, and yeah,
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: he's done it a couple of times on one play.
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: So I think John I will hit that number. And
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: I just think that we love you guys watching us.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Thanks for watching game. Dave you for Cynthia Freeland and
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Greg Roseengal. I'm Patrick claybo enjoining all the games.
• 42:57
